Description of the Preferred Embodiments
As shown in Figure 1, the item of modular furniture 10 comprises a plurality of individual furniture modules 12, 14,16, 18,20 and preferably comprises five furniture modules. The furniture modules 12,14, 16,18, 20 comprises sanitary apparatus, for example items of sanitary furniture. In the preferred embodiment, the lowermost furniture module 12 comprises a toilet, the second furniture module 14 comprises a wash basin or a sink, the third furniture module 16 comprises a product storage area, the fourth furniture module 18 comprises a towel storage area and the uppermost fifth furniture module 20 comprises a shower unit. The shower unit
<Desc/Clms Page number 8>
comprises a shower head 22 and may further comprise an extractor fan and a light 24.
The modular furniture 10 comprises support means in the form of a support column 30. The support column 30 is arranged to support all of the furniture modules 12,14, 16,18, 20 vertically spaced relative to each other.
Vertically adjacent furniture modules may be spaced such that an upper surface of the lower furniture module locates adjacent to the lower surface of the upper furniture module. In a preferred embodiment, vertically adjacent furniture modules may be physically spaced by greater than lcm and preferably by greater than 3cm.
However, in an alternative embodiment the furniture modules may be vertically spaced adjacent to each other by less than 5mm or less than 2mm in order to appear seamless. Furthermore, the vertical spacing may cause the upper surface of the lower furniture module to locate next to the lower surface of the upper furniture module to appear seamless. The furniture modules 12,14, 16,18, 20 are rotatably supported by the support column 30 such that the furniture modules 12,14, 16,18, 20 are movable in a horizontal plane relative to each other. The support column 30 is supported on a support surface, for example a bathroom floor and/or a bathroom ceiling.
Only one furniture module may be required at any single time and, therefore, all of the remaining furniture modules may be vertically aligned in order to provide as much space as possible for the user, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5. The modular furniture 10 is for use in bathrooms and, in particular, compact bathrooms in which it is useful to utilise the available space as efficiently
<Desc/Clms Page number 9>
as possible, for example in caravans or in public bathrooms which may be located within public areas, for example at airports or train stations. In addition, compact bathrooms to save space and hence costs may also be provided in apartments, hotels, student residences, hospital wards, etc.
In bathrooms it is known to provide a sloping floor surface directed towards a drainage means or a drainage area. Such bathrooms do not require shower trays which have a raised periphery defined there around. Conventional showers generally include shower trays which are permanently provided with the shower head permanently provided vertically thereabove. Accordingly, the use of a shower tray restricts space and inhibits the use of the available space within the bathroom. The use of a sloped floor enables the uppermost furniture module 20 to be simply rotated out of alignment with the other furniture modules 12,14, 16,18 in order to provide a shower with the water draining naturally into the drainage means rather than requiring a floor mounted shower tray. This subsequently enables the sink unit 12 for example to then be rotated out of alignment for use by a user and the user is therefore not required to stand in a shower tray.
Each furniture module 12,14, 16,18, 20 comprises an elliptic cylinder housing. The support column is arranged to extend through each furniture module 12,14, 16,18, 20, at a location adjacent to one end of the each elliptic cylinder rather than centrally through each elliptic cylinder. The support column 30 is arranged to extend upwardly from the floor and may connect to the ceiling in the bathroom. Accordingly, the modular furniture is a
<Desc/Clms Page number 10>
free standing unit with no support or attachments to the walls required. This further enables the walls to be decorated with shelves, heaters or mirrors etc.
Each furniture module 12,14, 16, 18, 20 is arranged to rotate through substantially 1800 around the support column 30. For example, from an aligned position, as shown in figure 1 and Figure 3 each furniture module 12, 14,16, 18,20 may be rotatable by 900 in a clockwise direction and 900 in an anti-clockwise direction. In an alternative embodiment the furniture modules may be rotatable about the full 3600.
Each furniture module 12,14, 16,18, 20, is substantially identical but may provide a different function, for example, a shower, a washbasin, a toilet, a cabinet etc. Each furniture module comprises an elliptic cylinder housing. The module is completed by an insert to provide the furniture, for example a washbasin insert etc.
The insert may comprise moulded inserts.
The second furniture module 14 will now be described in more detail with particular reference to Figure 2 although it should be appreciated that each furniture module comprises substantially identical apparatus differing in the function provided as a result of the insert located with the elliptic cylinder housing.
The second furniture module 14 comprises an elliptic cylinder housing 60 housing an upper open face 61 and a lower closed face 62. The elliptic cylinder housing 60 is arranged to have an insert 64 in order to provide the functional apparatus. The second furniture module 14
<Desc/Clms Page number 11>
comprises a wash basin insert defining a basin 66, having a tap 67 with a control button 68 associated therewith and a support area 69 for supporting soap etc. In one embodiment the control button 68 may be replaced with or supplemented with a sensor to automatically turn the water on or off as a users hands are placed or removed from underneath the tap. As previously explained, the other furniture modules have different inserts to provide different equipment for example a shower insert (in which the elliptic cylinder housing has an open lower face) or a toilet insert, or a storage insert, etc.
The second furniture module 14 is supported to the support column 30 through a hinge mechanism. In the preferred embodiment, the furniture module comprises a rising hinge mechanism such that as the furniture module 14 is rotated the furniture module 14 rises upwardly. In alternative embodiments, the rising hinge mechanism may be replaced with ball bearing devices enabling the furniture modules to rotate around the support column.
The hinge mechanism comprises a male annular member 40 and a female annular member 42. The female annular member 42 is arranged to be secured to a lower face 62 of the furniture module 60 and the male annular member 40 is arranged to be secured to the support column 30.
The lower face of the female annular member 42 is arranged to co-operate with the upper face of the male annular member 40. The male annular member 40 comprises raised arcuate sections 44 defined thereon. Similarly the female annular member 44 comprises corresponding recessed arcuate sections 46. In the neutral position each arcuate
<Desc/Clms Page number 12>
raised section 44 locates in a corresponding recessed arcuate section 46.
The ends of the raised arcuate sections 44 comprise ramped portions 48. Similarly the ends of the recessed arcuate sections 46 comprises ramped portions 50. From the neutral position, the furniture module 14 is manually rotated such that the raised portions 48,50 slidably move relative to each other in order to raise the module 14 whilst being rotated. The hinge mechanism preferably comprises limiting means in order to prevent greater than 900 of rotation from the neutral position. In the maximum rotated position each raised portion 44 is supported on a corresponding support surface 52 provided by the female annular member 42.
The support column 30 comprises discrete sections 70 which extend between vertically adjacent furniture modules. The furniture module 14 provides a passageway 72 to enable the discrete column section 70 to locate therein. Accordingly, at least a part of the discrete column section is arranged to extend into the passageway 72 provided by the furniture module 14.
The discrete column section 70 is provided with a first outwardly projecting flange 80 and a second outwardly projecting flange 82. The male annular member 40 is arranged to be secured to the second projecting flange 82 and may be secured thereto by suitable locking elements projecting through locking apertures 41, 83 for example a nut and bolt.
<Desc/Clms Page number 13>
The upper end of the discrete column section 70 projects through the upper face 64 of the furniture module 14 and locates within the passageway 72 provided by the furniture module 14.
A support column cap 74 may be secured adjacent to the upper face of the discrete column section 70. The support column cap 74 is arranged to be secured to the first annular flange 80 of the discrete column extension 70 extending upwardly from the furniture module 14.
Once constructed, the support column 30 defines a passageway 71 therethrough from the floor upwards. All of the plumbing and wiring is arranged to locate within the passageway 71. For example, the passageway 71 may contain hot and cold water pipes, electrical wiring for any heaters, lighting, electric shower, extractor fan as well as the waste water pipes for the wash basin and the toilet.
The discrete column sections 70 have apertures 76 defined therein in order to enable the pipes, wiring etc. to connect to the relevant apparatus. The pipes are flexible in order to allow the rotation of the modules.
The modular furniture 10 may have switches mounted thereon in order to operate the shower, heater, lighting, extractor fan. The switches may be located at a convenient height to be operated manually since such electrical items located on the uppermost furniture module may be relatively inaccessible due to the height of the furniture module.
<Desc/Clms Page number 14>
The lowermost furniture module 12, the toilet, may comprise auxiliary support members in the form of feet 90 in order to provide extra support since this furniture module will need to support che greatest load. The feet 90 may comprise castors or other rolling support members in order for the toilet to be rotated about the support column 30. Furthermore, the feet 90 may be arranged to simultaneously extend as the toilet module 12 is rotated in order to accommodate the rising hinge mechanism for example resilient means or compression springs may force the rolling support downwardly in order to maintain the feet 90 in contact with the floor whilst being rotated. Alternatively, a non-rising hinge mechanism may be used with the lowermost furniture module and/or the uppermost furniture module.
The furniture modules 12,14, 16,18, 20 may be provided with shelves 15,17, 19 which are arranged to pivot or rotate outwardly from the underside of the furniture module as shown in figures 1,4 and 6. For example, a shelf may be secured to the second end of the underside of the elliptic cylinder and can then be manually rotated to project outwardly from the elliptic cylinder. Accordingly, whilst not in use, the shelves 15, 17,19 are concealed without requiring significant space.
In addition, the toilet lid 100 and toilet seat 102 are also pivotally supported by the support column 30 in order to rotate within a horizontal plane. If the toilet lid 100 or toilet seat 102 are not required then they can be rotated to locate underneath the second furniture module 14, as shown in Figure 5.
