Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] This invention relates to a bathroom vanity, and more specifically,
The present invention relates to a washstand that eliminates the gap between the edge of the upper base of the washstand and the frame wall surface.

[Prior Art] Generally, most of this type of washstand is installed in a space between a bathroom and a toilet, but in this way, it is installed between a frame wall (specifically a frame wall or a partition wall). When installing a washstand in a bathroom, it is considered desirable in terms of construction efficiency to incorporate the pre-assembled washstand into the storage space formed by the frame wall or partition wall.

However, with this construction method, a gap is likely to occur between the partition wall and the vanity due to manufacturing errors in the vanity or warping of the partition wall, and this gap may result in an unattractive appearance. There was also the problem of creating areas that were difficult to clean.

Therefore, the applicant first developed a structure in which the gap between the upper base of the washstand and the partition wall is closed with a gap member (
(Refer to Utility Model Publication No. 60-28304). In this structure, at least one side wall of the upper base of the vanity has a protruding edge extending along its front edge and upper edge, and a partition wall is provided between the side wall and a partition wall opposite to this side wall. This is made up of a gap member whose front and top surfaces overlap from the inside of the protruding edge to the protruding edge, and there is no post-treatment required for any gap between the side wall and partition wall of the bathroom vanity. It is designed so that it can be closed off from public view without having to do so.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, in this type of conventional bathroom vanity,
Although it is possible to close the gap between the side wall of the washstand and the partition wall, a concave step is created between the washstand and the closing member, and dust and loose hair accumulate in this step, resulting in sanitary problems. Not only is this undesirable, but it is also troublesome to clean.

One possible solution to this problem is to insert a piece of wood into the step that matches the dimensions of the step, but cutting the wood to match the width of the step at the construction site requires skill and , there is a problem that it takes a lot of time.

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and aims to provide a bathroom vanity that easily closes the gap between the bathroom vanity and the frame wall, and also removes the part where dust etc. tends to accumulate from the closed part. be.

[Means for Solving the Problem] In order to achieve the above object, the bathroom vanity of the present invention has the following features:
on at least one side wall and rear wall of the upper base of the vanity;
A protruding edge having a step with the upper surface of the upper base is formed, and this protruding edge is constructed and fixed on a support beam fixed to the wall surface of the building structure, and the gap between the side edge and rear edge of the upper base and the wall surface of the structure is formed. A base material is placed behind the base material which abuts the upper surface of the protruding edge, and is adhered by a gap closing member which abuts the upper surface of the upper base.

In this invention, it is sufficient that the protruding edges are formed at least on one side wall and the rear wall of the upper base of the washstand, and when the washstand is disposed between a pair of partition walls, both sides of the upper base When the protruding edge formed on the wall is installed and fixed on a support frame fixed to the partition wall, and when another piece of furniture is placed between one side wall and the partition wall, the protruding edge formed on the side wall The protruding edges formed on the edge and the rear wall may be constructed and fixed on support beams fixed to the frame wall and the partition wall.

Further, the closing member may have a flat cross section as long as it has a base material on its back surface that contacts the upper surface of the protruding edge and also contacts the upper surface of the upper base of the washstand. Alternatively, the cross section may be inverted. Further, the closing member located in the gap between the side part of the upper base and the wall surface of the building frame may be in a straight shape, but it is preferable that the closing member be bent downward on the front edge side so as to come into contact with the front edge surface of the upper base. It is better to have hanging pieces that bend. Furthermore, by reducing the thickness of the gap closing member, the amount of protrusion of the gap closing portion can be reduced, and the number of members can be reduced, which is preferable.

[Function] By configuring as described above, after the protruding edges formed on the side wall and rear wall of the upper base are erected on the support crosspiece fixed to the wall surface of the building frame, the protruding edges formed on the side walls and rear wall of the upper base can be fixed with fixing members such as screws. If fixed,
A washstand can be installed within a predetermined storage space. Then, by covering the gap between the upper base and the frame wall with a gap closing member, the gap closing member comes into contact with the upper surface of the upper base, and the base material comes into contact with the upper surface of the protruding edge and is fixed. The gap between the vanity and the frame wall can be closed, and even if dust or the like adheres to it, it can be easily cleaned.

[Examples] Examples of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an example of an installed state of the washstand of the present invention, FIG. 2 is an enlarged perspective view of the main parts thereof, and FIG. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the washstand.

The washstand of the present invention mainly consists of a box-shaped base 2 having a plurality of storage chambers 1, a washlet recess 3 placed and fixed on the upper part of the base 2, and an upper base 4 having a faucet (not shown). The department is made up of: The upper base 4 has a decorative material made of artificial marble adhered to a base material made of a full board.
A protruding edge 6 having a step with the upper surface 5 of the upper base 4 is formed on both side walls and the rear wall. In this case, the protruding edges 6 of both side walls correspond to the wall surface 7 of the frame wall 7 (specifically, the partition wall 7a).
It is installed on a support beam 8 fixed to C and is fixed with a fixing member 9 such as a screw (see FIG. 4). A gap closing member 10 is attached to the gap between the upper base 4 and the frame wall 7 (composed of a side partition wall 7a and a rear fixed wall 7b, hereinafter referred to as the frame wall 7). , the gap between the washstand and the frame wall 7 is closed.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 5, the gap closing member 10 includes a pair of side gap closing members 12. '12 and rear gap closing member 13 are used.

The side gap closing member 12 consists of a plywood base material 11 that abuts the top surface of the support crosspiece 8, and an artificial marble that is fixed to the back with a fixing means such as adhesive and abuts the top surface of the upper base 4. Made of decorative material. The base material 11 has the same thickness as the decorative material of the upper base 4. The rear gap closing member 13 is also formed similarly to the side gap closing member 12. in this case,
The side gap closing member 12 has a front edge 4 of the upper base 4 on one end side.
A hanging piece 12a located on the same plane as a is bent, and a base material 11 that comes into contact with the front end face of the protruding edge 6 is provided on the back side of the hanging piece 12a in the same manner as described above. On the other hand, the rear gap closing member 13 is formed with an inverted cross section,
A backing material 11 having a rectangular cross section or a fixing means such as an adhesive is fixed to the back surface of the trowel. In this case, the base material 11
protrudes by a length corresponding to the step between the upper surface 5 of the upper base 4 and the protruding edge 6, and its lower end surface abuts the upper surface of the protruding edge 6, and the lower end surface of the rear gap closing member 13 can come into contact with the upper surface 5 of the upper base 4.

The width of the base material 11 is set to be approximately the same as the protruding length of the protruding edge 6, and the width of the gap closing members 12 and 13 is set to be larger than the gap between the upper base 4 and the frame wall 7. ,
Even if the gap between the upper base 4 and the frame wall 7 is longer than the protruding length of the protruding edge 6, the gap can be absorbed and closed.

Next, the procedure for installing the washstand of the present invention will be explained.

First, the support beams 8 are fixed to the opposing wall surfaces of the frame wall 7 forming the storage space in accordance with the height of the washstand that has been assembled in advance at a factory. Next, the protruding edges 6 formed on both side walls of the upper base 4 are installed on the support beam 8, and then fixed with screws 9 (see FIG. 4).

In this state, a rear gap closing member 13 cut by a saw 14 according to the dimensions between the frame walls is attached to the gap between the rear edge of the upper base 4 and the frame wall 7 using a fixing means such as adhesive. After that, the side gap closing members 12 are similarly attached to the gaps between both side edges of the upper base 4 and the frame wall 7, and the installation of the bathroom vanity is completed.

Note that a decorative board 15 is adhesively fixed to both sides of the entire surface of the base 2 and to the bottom end thereof (see FIG. 3).

In the above embodiment, a case has been described in which the protruding edges 6 are formed on both sides of the upper base 4 and the washstand is installed between the opposing body walls 7, but the installation form is not necessarily limited to this. In the case where another piece of furniture is placed between one side wall and the frame wall 7, the protruding edges 6 formed on the side wall and the protruding edge 6 formed on the rear wall are connected to the partition wall 7a and the fixed wall 7b.
What is necessary is just to erect and fix on the support crosspiece 8 fixed to.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, since the washstand of the present invention is configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained.
