Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate the piping construction and the maintenance/management of pipes under a floor by inexpensively preventing the oozing out of leaked water to under the floor. SOLUTION: In this bath room unit, a separately formed bath tab 3 is suspended from a bath tab suspend-supporting part 21 in the shape of a frame successively provided outside the bath tab 2. Then a water tank 5 the planar shape of which is a little larger than the opening part 22 of the part 21 and is provided with a shape nearly like a box allowing entering and leaving from the opening part 22 is installed at the lower side of the bath tab 3 by positioning the whose part 22 within the water tank 5, and a bath tab supporting table 6 is mounted at the lower side of the leg part 31 of the bath tab 3.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

[0001] The present invention relates to a bathroom unit.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when a bathroom is provided on the second floor, as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-128724, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-19658, etc.
In the bathtub mounting part formed integrally with or separately from the washing area,
It is known to use a bathroom unit on which a separately formed bath is placed.

[0003]

However, in such a bathroom unit, there is a problem that the strength of the bathtub mounting portion is required, and it is difficult to perform water supply and drainage piping work under the floor at the time of installation and maintenance of the piping. there were.

An object of the present invention is to provide a bathroom unit which solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, prevents leakage of water from leaking downstairs at low cost, and facilitates piping work under the floor and maintenance of the piping. With the goal.

[0005]

According to the present invention, there is provided a bathroom unit in which a separately formed bathtub is suspended from a frame-shaped bathtub fishing branch connected to a washing place. A substantially box-shaped water tank, whose shape is slightly larger than the opening of the bathtub fishing branch, and which can enter and exit through the opening, is installed below the bathtub so that the entire opening is located in the water tank, and below the legs of the bathtub. Is characterized in that a bathtub support table is placed on the table.

[0006] In the bathroom unit of the present invention, the washing area and the frame-shaped bathtub fishing support may be formed separately, but may be separately formed and integrated by means of adhesion, welding or the like. Alternatively, any of those which are molded separately and integrally assembled may be used.

[0007] In the bathroom unit of the present invention, the material of the washing place and the bathtub fishing branch is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include glass fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester resin (FRP), artificial marble and the like. A foam made of a conductive synthetic resin or a reinforcing material may be provided.

In the bathroom unit of the present invention, the material of the bathtub suspended from the bathtub fishing branch and formed separately from the washing place is not particularly limited. For example, FRP, artificial marble,
Enamel, stainless steel and the like.

When the bathtub is suspended from the bathtub fishing branch by the flange of the bathtub being hooked on a rising portion provided around the opening of the bathtub fishing branch, the bathtub is connected to the bathtub fishing branch. It is preferable that a seal member made of synthetic rubber, a closed-cell synthetic resin, a synthetic rubber foam, or the like is fitted on the back surface of the flange of the bathtub so as to be suspended in a watertight manner.

The shape of the sealing material is not particularly limited. The sealing material may be tape-shaped sealing material, or may be formed in a frame shape and then fitted. It is preferable to use a frame having a substantially U-shaped cross section so that the number of steps can be reduced.

In the bathroom unit of the present invention, the material of the substantially box-shaped water tank installed below the bathtub is not particularly limited as long as it has water resistance. For example, FRP, stainless steel, synthetic steel, etc. Resin-coated metals and the like are listed. Since the aquarium is not visible when installed, surface makeup such as patterning is not required, and inexpensive recycled materials can be used.

[0012] The material of the bathtub support placed under the leg of the bathtub is not particularly limited as long as it has water resistance. For example, a hard synthetic resin such as hard polyvinyl chloride;
Glass fiber reinforced polyurethane rigid foams and the like can be mentioned.

In the former case, flanges are provided at both ends of a substantially cylindrical or substantially frusto-conical body so as to reduce the amount of raw materials used and to improve the strength. It is preferable to have a shape protruding radially at equal intervals along the direction.

Since the bathtub support is placed below the legs of the bathtub and on both the upper and lower sides of the bottom of the watertub, the load applied to the legs of the bathtub is not once supported by the bottom of the watertub. As it is transmitted to the floor of the building through the bathtub support,
The tub does not need to have sufficient load-bearing strength to support the full weight of the tub, and can be manufactured at low cost.

The water tub is inserted and installed downward from the opening of the bath tub fishing support after the installation of the washing area and the bath tub fishing support and before the hanging of the bath tub. By doing so, it is possible to enter and exit from the opening, and it can be removed at the time of water supply under the floor, drainage piping construction and pipe maintenance.

Also, when the overflow of the bathtub leaks from the gap between the bathtub fishing branch and the bathtub, the plane shape thereof is made slightly larger than the opening of the bathtub fishing branch so that it can be received in the water tank. It is installed below the bathtub so that the whole is located in the water bath.

The rising wall on the four sides of the water tank is connected to a multi-purpose trap in which a drain pipe of the water tank is attached to a drain of a washing place,
Since the water is discharged by being combined with the drainage from the washing place, it is preferable that the height is set higher than the overflow surface of the washing place so that the pooled water in the water tank flowing backward from the trap does not overflow.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a main part showing an example of a bathroom unit of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of a main part of the bathroom unit of the present invention shown in FIG.

1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a bathtub with a washing place in which an FRP washing place 2 and an FRP bathtub 3 are connected, and the bathtub 3 is a frame integrally formed with the washing place 2. It is hung from a bathtub fishing branch 21 in a shape. At an upper end of the washing place 2, a wall panel 4 is erected.

5 is a substantially box-shaped water tank having a plane shape slightly larger than the opening 22 of the bathtub fishing support 21 and capable of entering and exiting from the opening 22. The water tank 5 is an opening of the bathtub fishing support 21. The entire portion 22 is installed below the bathtub 3 so as to be located in the water bath 5.

Immediately below the leg 31 of the bathtub 3, a bathtub support 6 is provided.
Are placed both below the water tank 5 and inside the water tank 5,
The load applied to the leg 31 of the bathtub 3 is transmitted to the floor 7 of the building.

[0022]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to prevent leakage of water from leaking downstairs by receiving the water leakage into the water tank, and to remove the bathtub from the bathtub fishing branch to lower the floor. Plumbing work and pipe maintenance can be easily performed.
