BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a loading fitting for a washing room.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a bathroom unit as shown in FIG. 3 is known. The bathroom unit 1 includes a bathtub 2, a bathtub fitting mount 31 having an opening 31a in which the bathtub 2 is fitted and mounted, an adjacent floor pan 32 continuous to the bathtub fitting mount 31, and A washing room 3 integrally formed with a waist wall 33 standing on the peripheral edge of the adjacent floor pan 32, a wall panel (not shown) standing on the peripheral edge of the washing room 3, and formed by these wall panels The ceiling panel (not shown) covers the upper opening. Then, the periphery of the washing place 3 described above, that is, the bathtub fitting mount 31.
Of the other side except for one side facing the adjacent floor pan 32,
At the upper edge of the waist wall 33, horizontal wall installation surfaces 31a and 33a are provided so that wall panels can be erected, and a water repelling surface 3 that extends in a vertical direction continuously from the wall installation surfaces 31a and 33a.
A wall panel standing portion 3A composed of 1b and 33b and reinforcing ribs 31c and 33c extending in the horizontal direction is formed at the upper ends of the water repelling surfaces 31b and 33b.

When such a washing place is stored or transported, the washing efficiency is increased by stacking vertically. For example, as described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-11033, one of the washing places is arranged in an open state of the upper surface, the other washing place is inverted to the opened state of the lower surface, and the washing place of one side is changed to the washing place of one side through a loading fitting. The method of stacking is adopted. This loading fitting is formed with a fitting groove into which the water return surface formed at the periphery of the washing area is inserted, and is composed of a pressure receiving surface supporting the wall installation surface and a locking piece of the water return surface. There is.

[0004]

However, in the case where the above-described loading fitting is adopted, when one washing area is loaded with the other washing area, its peripheral edge hits other than the fitting groove of the loading fitting. However, since the loading fitting is easily removed from one of the washing areas, there is a problem that loading work is troublesome. In addition, at the upper edge of the water repellent surface in the washroom,
Reinforcing ribs are formed as described above to prevent deformation, and when loading a washing space having such reinforcing ribs, it is necessary to make the width of the fitting groove of the above-mentioned loading fitting larger. There is. Therefore, when the loading fitting having such a wide fitting groove is used, the resistance to one washing place is reduced and the other washing place may come into contact with the loading fitting. It becomes bigger and more likely to fall.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a fitting tool for loading a washing place, which can be securely fitted and held in the washing place to load the washing place.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, there is provided a washing basin in which a bathtub fitting mount and an adjacent floor pan are integrally formed, or a tub with a tub and an adjacent floor pan are integrally formed in a peripheral edge. Is a stacking fitting for arranging the washing place of the other side with the upper side opened and the other washing place is inverted to the lower side of the opened side, and for fitting and holding the adjacent floor pans facing each other. The fitting has an elastic body and a cross section of approximately H.
It is formed in a letter shape, at least on the inner surface side of the outer lower piece,
It is characterized in that it cooperates with the opposite inner lower piece to hold the water repelling surface of the wall panel standing portion in one of the washing areas and to form a bulge portion that can be engaged with the reinforcing rib of the wall panel standing portion. It is what

[0007]

[Function] After fitting the loading fitting into the periphery of one of the washing places arranged with the upper face open, the periphery of the other washing place is arranged so that the lower face is opened and the adjacent floor pans face each other while the loading fitting is fitted. Is dropped into the loading fitting previously fitted.

As a result, the water repelling surface of the wall panel standing portion in one of the washing areas is held between the bulging portion of the outer lower piece and the inner lower piece of the loading fitting, and further, the wall panel standing portion of the wall panel standing portion. Since the reinforcing rib can be engaged with the bulging portion of the outer lower piece of the loading fitting, when the other washing place is loaded, even if the position of the other washing place shifts and hits the loading fitting, The detachment of the loading fitting from the washing area is reliably prevented.

[0009]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a state in which the washing places 3 and 3 are loaded through the loading fitting 10 of the present invention, and FIG.
In the figure, the fitting holding state of the washing areas 3, 3 by the loading fitting 10 is shown.

The loading fitting 10 is made of an elastic body, specifically, EPDM (ethylene / propylene rubber) having a hardness of 70, and has a substantially H-shaped cross section.
01 has a width and a thickness sufficient to mount the reinforcing ribs 31c (33c) of the wall panel standing portion 3A in the washing area 3. Further, on the inner surface side of the outer lower piece 102 and the inner surface side of the outer upper piece 103 which are continuous with the outer end of the horizontal piece 101,
Bulged portions 102a and 103a are formed, respectively. The bulging portion 102a cooperates with the inner lower piece 104 facing the bulging portion 102a, and the water repelling surface 31b (33) of the wall panel standing portion 3A.
The amount of protrusion is set so that b) can be held.
Further, the bulging portion 103a is projected so as to partially engage with the reinforcing rib 31c (33c) of the wall panel standing portion 3A.

In order to stack the washing areas 3 by using the loading fitting 10 as described above, first, one of the washing areas 3 is placed in an open state of the upper surface, and the loading fitting is provided at an appropriate interval on the periphery thereof. Insert 10. That is, the bulging portion 102 of the inner lower piece 104 and the outer lower piece 102 in the loading fitting 10.
a is a reinforcing rib 31c (33c) of the wall panel standing portion 3A
, The loading fitting 10 is pushed in while elastically deforming, the horizontal piece 101 is brought into contact with the reinforcing rib 31c (33c), and at the same time, the inner lower piece 10 is pushed.
The water return surface 31b (33b) of the wall panel standing portion 3A is held between the outer peripheral piece 4 and the bulging portion 102a of the outer lower piece 102.

Next, the other washing area 3 is inverted to the bottom open state, the adjacent floor pan 33 of the one washing area 3 is opposed to the adjacent floor pan 33 of the other washing area 3, and the peripheral edge thereof is the peripheral edge of the one washing area 3. The swelling portion 103 of the inner upper piece 105 and the outer upper piece 103 of the loading fitting 10 fitted to each other
Drop between a and. Therefore, the peripheral edge of the other washing area 3 elastically deforms the loading fitting 10 to bulge the inner upper piece 105 and the outer upper piece 103 of the loading fitting 10.
The reinforcing ribs 31c (33c) are housed in the horizontal piece 101. As a result, the other washing area 3
Is the reinforcing rib 31c (33c) of the loading fitting 10 through the horizontal piece 101 of the loading fitting 10, and the reinforcing rib 31c of the washing place 3 is one.
It is supported by c (33c).

At this time, the positions are displaced so that the peripheral edge of the other washing area 3 has an inner upper piece 105 and an outer upper piece 1 of the loading fitting 10.
Even if it hits 03, since the loading fitting 10 is securely held in one of the washing areas 3, it does not come off and can be easily fitted by utilizing the elastic deformation of the loading fitting 10. You can

The upper and lower washing areas 3 and 3 thus loaded via the loading fitting 10 are transported by truck and stored in a warehouse or the like. In this case, the reinforcing ribs 31c (33c) and the bulging portion 102 may be released from the loading fitting 10 due to the washing place 3 jumping up due to vibration during transportation.
It is surely prevented that the a and the 103a are engaged and disengaged. Moreover, the water repelling surface 31b of the one washing place 3
Since (33b) is held by the inner lower piece 104 of the loading fitting 10 and the bulging portion 102a of the outer lower piece 102, the contact friction causes the (33b) to move up and down in accordance with the bounce of the washing space 3, There is no relative change in position between the two, and this also prevents the washing place 3 from being detached from the loading fitting 10.

Furthermore, since the other washing place 3 jumps up following the one washing place 3, the other washing place 3
The relative positional change does not occur between the loading fitting 10 and the loading fitting 10, and the washing area 3 on the other side is not separated from the loading fitting 10. Therefore, the bulging portion 103a formed on the outer upper piece 103 of the loading fitting 10 is not always necessary, and even when it is formed, the outer lower piece 1 is not necessary.
The protrusion amount smaller than that of the bulging portion 102a of No. 02 is sufficient.

In this embodiment, the washing place 3 in which the bathtub fitting mount 31 and the adjacent floor pan 32 are integrated has been described, but the bathtub 2 and the adjacent floor pan 32 are integrally formed with the bathtub. You can stack the washing places as well.
