The structure is composed of: Two sets with two legs (1) joined by three horizontal crosspieces (2')-(2")-(2''') with the lower one (2"') defining a frame for a board (3) with the intermediate one (2") and the legs (1). The bench (4) has as many holes as washbasins for the drainage to pass through and as many mortises (6) as holes (5) on its large edge next to the wall. The screws (7) secured to the wall are applied on the upper and lower thirds of the leg and axially pierce cylindrical separators (8). The securing screws (9) of the bench (4) to the upper crosspiece (2') of the legs axially pierce cylindrical separators (10) placed between the bench (4) and the crosspiece (2'). <IMAGE>

Description

Modular structure for washbasin cabinet.

The object to which the invention relates Protected by this patent is a "Modular structure for washbasin cabinet ".

The furniture on which the toilets rest is usually adopt the known table-shaped structure, with legs of support and a flat top board or bench, using eventually the lower space to place small cupboards / medicine cabinets or drawers.

The document GB-A-965 045 describes a table that it has the structural characteristics of the preamble of the claim attached.

Due to productivity requirements, these Furniture is usually manufactured on an industrial scale, all of it size, optionally chosen by each manufacturer.

Therefore, it is unlikely that this furniture mass-produced fit properly into the space reserved for such effect in the bathrooms, according to the project of building.

As a result of these mismatches, they are created unused spaces that also lead to a lack of functionality of the toilets and break their aesthetic harmony.

What is intended with the invention that It is the object of this patent is to overcome inconveniences of washbasin furniture, manufactured in sizes standardized, as described above, for which They have been studied, designed and developed.

The essential of the invention, described in the part characteristic of the attached claim, focuses on the dimensional adaptability of the furniture structure, which is manufactures in modules to facilitate the adjustment of its characteristics to the requirements (spatial, formal, functional and aesthetic of the Username).

The structure that responds to the general typology A table comprises the following elements:

Two equal games, each one of them by two legs or vertical rectangular prismatic struts, joined by three horizontal crossbars or joints; he upper joins the upper ends of the legs; The intermediate define a rectangular space with the upper and the legs; and the lower, which does not reach the lower ends of the legs, defines a rectangular frame with the legs and the intermediate crossbar That forms a bank.

A flat bench, with one or two holes for the sink drain (or washes, if there are two), located in the center, or else; and with one or two shrouds on the major edge of the bank, leaning towards the wall, through which the connections for feeding hot and cold water to the tap monobloc, where holes and mortises are located corresponding, aligned in perpendicular straight lines respect to the plane of the wall.

Screws fixed to the wall of each game with two legs, so that the plane defined by them is perpendicular to it, applied to the upper and lower thirds of the leg, near the wall, and placing between them (wall and legs) cylindrical spacers axially crossed by the screws

Fixing the bank screws to the crossbar upper two-legged sets, placing dividers cylindrical between the bench and the crossbar, drilled axially by the screws

The described structure facilitates the adaptation of the washbasin cabinet to the sizes provided in the draft construction, without having to do anything but cut the bank to the required size and adjust the auxiliary steps that cross in the corresponding positions (water inlets, drain, screws).

The advantages of this modular structure they are more highlighted in cases where the design of the bathrooms is repetitive in its formal characteristics and dimensional (projects of large apartment buildings, hotels, etc.), although the flexibility of adjustment provided by the structure allows to meet individual requirements with the same effectiveness.

To complete the description of the invention and facilitate the interpretation of formal characteristics, structural and functional, some figures are attached in which the various aspects of a preferred embodiment are depicted of the "Modular structure washbasin cabinet" that constitutes The object of this patent.

In the cited figures:

Figure 1 represents a perspective detail of the structure.

Figure 2 is a section of one of the games with two legs, cut by the plane that is represented as B-B in figure 3.

Figure 3 is a plan view of the game of two legs

Figure 4 is a section of a set of two legs, cut by the plane that is represented as A-A

Figure 5 is a front view of the game of two legs, seen from the wall to which it has been fixed.

Figure 6 shows a front view of the game mounted on a washbasin structure; figure 7 a view side of it and figure 8 a plan view.

Figures 9, 10 and 11 illustrate solutions specific to take advantage of the lower space of the furniture.

To clearly show nature and scope of the advantageous application of the "Modular furniture structure of sink ", below is a description of its composition, with reference to the figures that, when representing a preferred embodiment of said objective for informational purposes, should be considered in its broadest sense without implying a limitation of the application and content of the invention claimed.

The structure responds to the generic typology of a table and includes the following elements:

Two equal games, each one of them by two legs (1) rectangular, vertical, attached binoculars by means of three crossbars or joints; the superior (2 ') joins the upper ends of the legs (1); the intermediate (2 '') defines a rectangular space with the upper one (2 ') and the legs (1); and the lower (2 '' '), which does not reach the lower ends of the legs (1), define a rectangular frame with the legs and the crossbar intermediate (2 '') that forms a bank (3).

A flat bench (4), with one or two holes (5) for the drain of the washbasin (or of the washings, if there are two), located in the center, or otherwise; and with one or two shrouds (6) in the major bank edge (4), near the wall, where they are located the corresponding holes (5) and mortises (6), aligned in straight lines perpendicular to the plane of the wall.

Screws (7) fixed to the wall of each set of two legs, so that the plane defined by them be perpendicular to it, applied to the upper thirds and lower leg, near the wall, and placing between them (wall and legs) axially cylindrical spacers (9) pierced by screws (7).

Fixing the screws (9) of the bench (4) to the upper crossbar (2) of the two-legged sets, placing cylindrical separators between the bench (4) and the crossbar (2), axially drilled by screws (9).
