Description

DESCRIPTION

Lid-cover for drains of shower trays, bathtubs, sinks and similar

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The present invention relates to a device that has been specially designed to be installed on the drains of shower trays, bathtubs and the like.

The object of the invention is to provide a device that provides a means that allows the drain of this type of device to be hidden, since it is not very aesthetic, without affecting the functionality of said drain, in addition to offering a stable surface for the arrangement of accessories/bathroom products, such as bottles of gel, shampoo, etc.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As is known, in the field of practical application of the invention, and especially in the field of shower trays, their design has evolved over time, offering more modern geometric shapes, as well as finishes and materials. much more pleasing from an aesthetic point of view.

However, this type of device requires in all cases a drain, which in addition to being made of metal that can break the aesthetics of the bathroom, defines an area of accumulation of hair and dirt that very negatively affect the aesthetics of the tray. of shower.

On the other hand, in order to collect the water that is poured on them, they must have an inclined surface, which can be unstable when placing certain accessories/bathroom products on it, such as bottles of gel, shampoo, etc.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The lid-cover for drains of shower trays, bathtubs, sinks and the like that are recommends fully satisfactorily resolves the aforementioned problems, based on a simple but effective solution.

For this, and more specifically, the lid of the invention is materialized from a body in which two main sectors are defined, a flattened upper sector, whose plan configuration may vary according to different design lines, whether circular, square, rectangular, or any other shape deemed convenient, and which in all cases has a surface area greater than that of the drain it is intended to hide, so that the lower face of said upper sector emerges a lower neck that adapts to the diameter of the drain on which it is attached, neck that has a plurality of projections that define a series of windows or perimeter openings that allow the passage of water through the lid-cover, so that the function of the drain is not compromised, and yet it is perfectly hidden, so that the hair or dirt deposited on the drain are not visible, defining the upper sector Additionally, it has a perfectly horizontal flat surface that serves as a stable support base for accessories/bathroom products, such as bottles of gel, shampoo, conditioners, creams, etc.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that is going to be made below and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of its practical embodiment, a set of plans is attached as an integral part of said description. where, by way of illustration and not limitation, the following has been represented:

Figure 1.- Shows a perspective view of a lid-cover for drains in shower trays, bathtubs, sinks and the like made in accordance with the object of the present invention, arranged on the drain of the corresponding shower tray.

Figure 2.- Shows a diametral section view of the assembly of the previous figure from an imaginary vertical section plane passing through the central area of the lid-cover.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the lid-cover of the invention is intended to be implanted in a shower tray (1), bathtub or similar, in correspondence with its drain (2), materializing in a body ( 3) in which two differentiated sectors or zones are defined: an upper sector (4) flattened and horizontal, which has larger plan dimensions than the drain (2) to be hidden, and a lower face from which a lower neck emerges (5).

The upper sector (4) is materialized in a flat laminar body that, in the chosen embodiment, has a circular plan configuration, although said plan configuration is capable of adapting to any design line, be it quadrangular, rectangular, polygonal, drop-shaped, or any other configuration with a regular or irregular plan that has a surface area greater than the surface of the drain (2) to be covered without affecting its functionality.

In this sense, the lower neck (5), of tubular configuration, has a diameter according to the diameter of the drain (2) in which it is coupled through its edge (7), presenting projections (8) that define windows (6) or holes that allow water to pass through so that the function of the drain (2) is not impeded, leaving it perfectly hidden, thus preventing hair or dirt that accumulates on the drain (2) from being visible.

At the same time, and as previously mentioned, the upper sector (4) defines a flattened horizontal surface ideal as a stable support base for bathroom accessories/products, such as bottles of gel, shampoo, conditioners, creams, etc. since the inclined surface of the shower trays means that it is not the most suitable for depositing said articles due to the instability caused by said inclination.

In this way, a simple device is achieved, easy to implant, capable of being manufactured with very different configurations and finishes, which significantly improve the aesthetics of the shower tray, offering an additional feature as a stable support means for bathroom accessories.
