Sector de la técnica 5 Technical sector 5

La presente invención se refiere a un plato de ducha que se caracteriza por estar fabricado por un material flexible almohadillado en su parte superior; lo cual lo hace muy confortable al pisar sobre él; pero dotado de una estructura que lo hace auto portante como cualquier plato rígido convencional. Y que por su característica de ser acolchado 10 presenta una ventaja excepcional ante caídas y golpes accidentales lo que hace muy aconsejable su instalación además de en cualquier vivienda, en residencias de mayores y baños infantiles. The present invention relates to a shower tray characterized by being made of a flexible padded material in its upper part; which makes it very comfortable to step on it; but equipped with a structure that makes it self-supporting like any conventional rigid plate. And that due to its characteristic of being quilted 10 it presents an exceptional advantage in the face of accidental falls and bumps, which makes it very advisable to install it in addition to any home, in nursing homes and children's bathrooms.

Antecedentes de la invención 15 Background of the invention

Los platos de ducha que se comercializan, en su gran mayoría son rígidos fabricados con diversos materiales tales como cerámica, poliuretano, poliéster etc. Los cuales presentan una gran ventaja a la hora de su instalación en obra ya que debido a su rigidez son fáciles de nivelar y recibir con los diferentes materiales adhesivos de unión. Del mismo 20 modo la instalación del desagüe resulta mucho más segura ante futuras perdidas y rezumes. Por contra debido esta rigidez su comportamiento ante caídas y golpes accidentales no es adecuada. The shower trays that are commercialized, mostly are rigid made of various materials such as ceramics, polyurethane, polyester etc. Which have a great advantage at the time of installation on site because due to their rigidity they are easy to level and receive with the different adhesive bonding materials. In the same way, the installation of the drain is much safer against future losses and oozes. On the other hand, due to this rigidity, their behavior against falls and accidental blows is not adequate.

Es por esto la necesidad de adaptar otro tipo de materiales cuyo comportamiento ante el 25 agua es excelente tales como la silicona , el poliuretano flexible ó el caucho, en la fabricación de platos de ducha como por ejemplo se menciona en la patente nacional Nº P200702437 (3) "PLATO DE DUCHA" en la cual se describe un plato de ducha fabricado mediante moldeo en material flexible y de reducido espesor para adaptarlo a la concavidad practicada previamente en la solera de obra, el resultado es un plato de 30 ducha que aunque es flexible no es lo suficientemente acolchado debido a su reducido espesor, y que al precisar de la realización de la concavidad con sus respetivas pendientes en obra incrementa los costes y la complejidad de instalación. This is why the need to adapt other types of materials whose behavior against water is excellent such as silicone, flexible polyurethane or rubber, in the manufacture of shower trays as for example mentioned in national patent No. P200702437 ( 3) "SHOWER TRAY" which describes a shower tray manufactured by molding in flexible material and of reduced thickness to adapt it to the concavity previously practiced in the work floor, the result is a 30 shower tray that although it is Flexible is not padded enough due to its reduced thickness, and that when it is necessary to realize the concavity with its outstanding slopes on site it increases costs and installation complexity.

Otro ejemplo lo tenemos en el expediente cuyo Nº de publicación es 2400903 el que 35 describe un plato de ducha moldeado con sus pendientes ya formadas para la evacuación del agua y con un grosor suficiente para que sea confortable pero que necesita que se le practique una cama en obra nivelada compacta y lisa en toda su superficie, ya que no es auto portante debido a su flexibilidad, y teniendo en cuenta que la zona de desagüe se suele dejar hueca para que la conexión de este sea más sencilla 40 al hacer presión debido a la pisada la zona hueca cederá y con el tiempo podrá dar problemas de pérdida de agua y humedades. Another example is in the file whose publication number is 2400903 which describes a molded shower tray with its slopes already formed for the evacuation of water and with a thickness sufficient to be comfortable but that needs to be made a bed in a compact and smooth level work on its entire surface, since it is not self-supporting due to its flexibility, and taking into account that the drainage zone is usually left hollow so that the connection of this drainage is easier 40 when pressing due to the footprint of the hollow area will give way and over time it can cause problems of loss of water and humidity.

Es por esto que se hace necesario a la hora de fabricar un plato acolchado, dotarlo de una armadura que lo haga auto portante, lo cual permitirá su instalación sin tener que 45 depender de la perfecta nivelación de la base y sin que dicha armadura perjudique a la comodidad de la pisada This is why it is necessary when making a padded plate, provide it with an armor that makes it self-supporting, which will allow its installation without having to depend on the perfect leveling of the base and without that said armor damages the comfort of the tread

Explicación de la invención Explanation of the invention.

50 fifty

La presente invención se refiere a un plato de ducha moldeado cuya parte superior es acolchada para dotar de comodidad y de seguridad a la acción de asearse, y la parte inferior es totalmente lisa y rígida en toda su superficie. The present invention relates to a molded shower tray whose upper part is padded to provide comfort and safety to the cleaning, and the lower part is completely smooth and rigid throughout its surface.

Dicho plato se fabrica con un molde obtenido a partir de un prototipo o matriz elaborado de forma artesanal o mecánica, pudiendo dotarla de diferentes diseños y texturas decorativas, que serán reproducidas fielmente en los platos de ducha. Said plate is manufactured with a mold obtained from a prototype or matrix elaborated in an artisanal or mechanical way, being able to provide it with different designs and decorative textures, which will be faithfully reproduced in the shower trays.

El plato de ducha está fabricado con un compuesto de poliuretano flexible de colada, 5 debidamente formulado el cual se vierte en el molde distribuyéndolo adecuadamente y a continuación se posiciona en el interior del molde la armadura, que se trata un tablero de partículas hidrófugo, las propiedades químicas adhesivas del poliuretano consiguen una unión física muy fuerte entre este y la armadura consiguiendo que se hagan solidarios entre sí, y dotando al conjunto de unas propiedades inmejorables para el fin que está 10 concebido. Una vez pasado el tiempo de curación del poliuretano tendremos nuestro plato de ducha. The shower tray is made of a flexible formulated polyurethane compound, duly formulated which is poured into the mold by distributing it properly and then the armature is placed inside the mold, which is treated with a water-repellent particle board, the properties Adhesive polyurethane chemicals achieve a very strong physical bond between this and the armor getting them to be integral with each other, and providing the set with unbeatable properties for the purpose that is designed. Once the cure time of the polyurethane is over we will have our shower tray.

Del mismo modo se puede usar como armadura un tablero de contrachapado, o en su lugar un entramado metálico o plástico, dependiendo del grado de resistencia que se 15 necesite. In the same way, a plywood board can be used as reinforcement, or instead a metallic or plastic framework, depending on the degree of resistance that is needed.

También en vez de utilizar compuesto de poliuretano se puede utilizar un compuesto de silicona del tipo de la que se utiliza en la confección de plantillas en la ortopedia que puede estar en contacto con la piel humana ya que el proceso de fabricación seria el 20 mismo aunque esta última opción es más recomendable para hacer piezas personalizadas a medida debido al sobrecoste que supone este material con respecto al poliuretano. Also, instead of using a polyurethane compound, a silicone compound of the type used in orthopedic insoles that can be in contact with human skin can be used since the manufacturing process would be the same although This last option is more advisable to make customized pieces due to the extra cost of this material with respect to polyurethane.
