Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bathroom unit.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a bathroom unit 1 has been installed in an apartment house or the like. As shown in FIG. 4, the bathroom unit 1 is provided with a waterproof pan 2 forming a washing space, a bathtub 3 which is integral with the waterproof pan 2 or is a separate body, and a peripheral part of the waterproof pan 2. The waterproof pan 2 and the bathtub 3 are surrounded by a wall panel 4 which is provided upright, and a ceiling panel 5 which covers an upper opening formed by the wall panels 4. And, on one wall panel 4, a faucet metal fitting 6 and a shower device 7
Is provided. The pipe for supplying hot water to the faucet metal 6 and the shower device 7 is laid along the back surface of the wall panel 4 to the position where the water faucet metal 6 and the shower device 7 are arranged, and is then introduced into the bathroom. In addition, the pipes led into the bathroom
It is also used to lay it inside the bathroom using a washroom counter (eg, Kaikaidaira 1-108).
184).

[0003]

However, in the above-mentioned method of laying the hot water supply pipe on the back surface of the wall panel,
The work must be done in a narrow space with the body wall surface, which makes the construction difficult, and maintenance work cannot be performed after the piping is installed unless the wall panel is removed, which requires complicated work. There is a drawback.

Further, in the case where the pipe is laid inside the washing counter, the pipe laying work and the maintenance and inspection work can be easily performed, but the washing space counter projects into the bathroom, so that the bathroom space is narrowed. There is.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and provides a bathroom unit capable of performing construction and maintenance inspection of a hot water supply pipe without providing a protrusion in the bathroom. .

[0006]

According to the present invention, an opening extending at least in the lateral direction is formed in one wall panel, a pipe cover is attached to the opening, and hot water supply pipes are laid in the pipe cover. In addition, the opening is closed via a detachable opening / closing lid forming a flat surface continuous with the wall panel.

[0007]

[Operation] At least one opening is formed in the lateral direction in one wall panel that constitutes the bathroom unit, and a horizontal piping cover on which a piping for supplying hot water to the faucet fitting is laid is formed in this opening. It is installed. An opening / closing lid forming a flat surface continuous with the wall panel is detachably fixed to the opening.

As a result, the hot-water supply pipe can be laid without forming a protrusion such as a washing-room counter inside the bathroom, and the construction and maintenance / inspection work can be easily performed from inside the bathroom.

[0009]

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

For the sake of convenience of explanation, the same members as the members of the conventional example shown in FIG. 4 are designated by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof will be omitted to avoid duplication.

FIG. 1 shows a bathroom unit 1 of the present invention. In this bathroom unit 1, the faucet metal fitting 6
As shown in FIG. 2, an opening 4a extending in the lateral direction is formed below the one wall panel 4 to which the horizontal panel is attached. The cover 8 is attached from the inside of the room. Then, in the horizontal pipe cover 8, for example, a hot water supply water supply pipe P led out to the inside of the bathroom via the back surface of the bathtub 2 is laid. An opening / closing lid 9 made of the same material as the wall panel 4 is detachably fixed to the front surface of the horizontal pipe cover 8 so as to form a flat surface continuous with the wall panel 4, and the opening portion 4a.
Is closed. Further, the above-mentioned water faucet metal fitting 6 is attached to the opening / closing lid 9 through a pipe metal fitting not shown, and the hot water supply water supply pipe P guided from the bathtub 2 side is passed through the water faucet metal fitting 6 through the horizontal pipe cover 8. Can be connected.

As a result, since the hot water supply pipe can be laid in the bathroom, the construction work can be facilitated, and the maintenance and inspection work thereof can be easily performed. At this time, since it is not necessary to provide a protrusion such as a washroom counter in the bathroom, the washroom can be widely utilized.

Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, one wall panel 4 is provided with an opening extending vertically by utilizing a connecting portion (joint) with another adjacent wall panel 4. 4b is formed, and the vertical piping cover 11 is attached to the opening 4b via the connecting fitting 10 between the wall panel 4 and the adjacent wall panel 4. A hot water supply water supply pipe P ₁ is laid in the vertical pipe cover 11 so as to be branched from the hot water supply water supply pipe P described above. This hot water supply water supply pipe P ₁ is not shown in detail in the ceiling panel 5. It is connected to the provided shower nozzle. An opening / closing lid 12 made of the same material as the wall panel 4 is detachably fixed to the front of the vertical pipe cover 11 so as to form a flat surface continuous with the wall panel 4 to close the opening 4b. There is.

In the vertical pipe cover 11, when a steam nozzle for a steam sauna is installed on the ceiling panel 5 in addition to the hot water supply pipe P ₁ , the steam pipe is laid, and other lighting equipment, audio equipment, etc. It is also possible to lay the wiring.

The vertical piping cover 11 is provided when a shower nozzle is installed on the ceiling panel 5 or when a steam sauna nozzle or the like is installed, and is unnecessary when these facilities are not installed side by side.

[0016]

As described above, according to the present invention, an opening extending at least in the lateral direction is formed in one wall panel, a pipe cover is attached to this opening, and hot water supply pipes are provided in the pipe cover. By laying and closing the opening through a removable lid that forms a flat surface that is continuous with the wall panel, hot water supply pipes can be installed without forming protrusions such as a washroom counter inside the bathroom. It can be laid and its construction and maintenance work can be easily done from inside the bathroom.
