Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To minimize an offset area between a lower frame of a door frame and the floor surface of a bathroom and enable people to pass through the bathroom with safety and prevent water in a bathtub from flowing out of the bathroom. SOLUTION: A door 3 is provided on an opening 2 which serves as an entrance of a bathroom 1. A water stop member 5 is vertically mounted in a lower frame 4a of a door frame 4 provided on the opening 2 substantially over the whole length of the lower frame 4a so that it may rise and fall freely. A push-up member 6 is provided on the door 3, which pushes up the water stop member 5 so that the water stop member 5 may rise when the door 3 is closed. When the door 3 is closed, the water stop member 5 is pushed up with the push-up member 6 so that the water stop member 5 may rise. When the door 3 is opened, the water stop member 5 is arranged to fall down so that the water stop member 5 may not hinder.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a structure of a part which becomes a doorway of a bathroom.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A door frame is provided along an opening serving as a doorway of a bathroom, and a door is attached to the door frame so as to be freely opened and closed. Then, a step is provided so that the upper surface of the lower frame portion of the door frame is higher than the floor surface of the bathroom so that water in the bathroom does not flow out of the bathroom.

[0003]

However, if a step is provided by increasing the height of the upper surface of the lower frame portion of the door frame, there is a risk that the foot may trip over the step, which is not preferable in terms of safety. There is a problem. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above description, and it has been made possible to reduce the step between a lower frame portion of a door frame and a floor surface of a bathroom so that water in the bathroom can be moved outside the bathroom while allowing safe passage. It is an object of the present invention to prevent spills to the public.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, a doorway structure of a bathroom according to the present invention is provided with a door 3 openably and closably provided at an opening 2 serving as a doorway of a bathroom 1 and a door frame 4 provided at the opening 2. A water stop member 5 is attached to the lower frame portion 4a so as to be vertically movable over substantially the entire length of the lower frame portion 4a, and the water stop member 5 rises up when the door 3 is closed. The door 3 is characterized by being provided with a push-up member 6 for pushing up. When the door 3 is closed, the water stopping member 5 is pushed up by the pushing up member 6 and the water stopping member 5 rises. Thereby, even if the step between the floor surface 7 of the bathroom 1 and the upper surface of the lower frame portion 4a is reduced, it is possible to prevent the water flowing out of the bathroom 1 from being stopped by the water blocking member 5 and flowing out of the bathroom 1. . Further, when the door 3 is opened, the water blocking member 5 falls down, and the water blocking member 5 does not become an obstacle, so that traffic can be smoothly performed.

It is also preferable that the door 3 is a swing door 3a which is opened and closed by a swing, and that a lifting member 6 is provided at a free end of the swing door 3a. In this case, when the swing door 3a is completely closed, the water stop member 5 rises, and immediately after the swing door 3a starts opening, the water stop member 5 falls down. Further, it is also preferable that the door 3 be a folding door 3b that is folded in two, and that a push-up member 6 be provided substantially at the center of the folding door 3b.
Also in this case, when the folding door 3b is completely closed, the water stopping member 5 rises, and immediately when the folding door 3b starts to be opened, the water stopping member 5 falls down.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS First, the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 will be described. The bathroom 1 is, for example, a bathroom unit having a bathtub and a washing place, but may be a sanitary room unit having a toilet and a basin in addition to the bathtub and the washing place. An opening 2 serving as an entrance is provided between the bathroom 1 and the outside of the bathroom 1, and a door frame 4 is mounted along the opening 2, and the door 3 is mounted on the door frame 4 so as to be freely opened and closed. . The portion outside the bathroom 1 is a dressing room, a corridor, and the like. Further, in the case of the present embodiment, the door 3 is a swing door 3a, which is rotatably mounted on a vertical frame portion 4b of a door frame 4 with a hinge 8. The lower frame portion 4a of the door frame 4 is connected to the floor surface 7 in the bathroom 1 and the bathroom 1
Although it is provided between the outer floor surface 9 and the upper surface of the lower frame portion 4a, the thickness is small so that there is not much difference between the floor surface 7 and the upper surface of the lower frame portion 4a. Bathroom side upper surface part 1 of lower frame part 4a
The height of the bathroom upper surface 11 is higher than 0, and a recess 12 is provided in the step between the bathroom upper surface 10 and the bathroom outer upper surface 11 so as to extend in the longitudinal direction. Water stop member 5
Extends over the entire length of the lower frame portion 4a, and is mounted on the lower frame portion 4a so as to be vertically movable. Water stop member 5
On one side, a projecting piece 13 is provided so as to extend in the longitudinal direction, and this projecting piece 13 is loosely fitted in the concave portion 12. It is designed to pivot freely. A flexible waterproof sheet 14 is disposed in the longitudinal direction between the water stopper member 5 and the bathroom-side upper surface part 10 of the lower frame part 4a, and both edges of the waterproof sheet 14 are attached to the water stopper members. 5 and a double-sided adhesive tape 15 on the lower frame 4a.
Are stuck on each. A push-up member 6 having a right-angled triangular cross section is attached to a lower end of the free side of the swing door 3a on a surface facing the outside of the bathroom 1 of the swing door 3a as the door 3.

The swing door 3a as the door 3
1 and 3, the push-up member 6 does not act on the water blocking member 5, and the water stopping member 5 falls down so as to overlap the bathroom-side upper surface portion 10 of the lower frame portion 1a. Therefore, the water blocking member 5 can pass smoothly without being in the way. When the swing door 3a is closed from this state, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, the push-up member 6 pushes up the water-stopping member 5, and the water-stopping member 5 rises upward. As a result, the outflow of water from the bathroom 1 side to the outside of the bathroom 1 by the water stopping member 5 is blocked.

Next, an embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 will be described. This example is also basically the same as the above example, and only the structure of the door 3 is different. In the case of this example, a folding door 3a that can be folded in two is used as the door 3. A push-up member 6 is integrally provided at a lower end substantially at the center of the folding door 3a. However, when the folding door 3b is opened, the water stop member 5 is attached to the lower frame portion 1a.
, So that it can pass smoothly without the water blocking member 5 being in the way. When the folding door 3b is closed as shown in FIG. 6 from this state, the push-up member 6 pushes up the water-stop member 5, and the water-stop member 5 rises upward.

[0009]

As described above, according to the present invention, when the water stopper is vertically mounted on the lower frame of the door frame provided in the opening so as to extend over substantially the entire length of the lower frame, and the door is closed. Since the door is provided with a push-up member that pushes up the water-stop member so that the water-stop member rises, the water-stop member is pushed up by the push-up member when the door is closed, and the water-stop member rises, and the Even if the height difference between the floor surface and the upper surface of the lower frame part is reduced, it is possible to prevent the water flowing out of the bathroom from being stopped by the water stop member and flowing out of the bathroom, and when the door is opened. The water stop member falls down, and the water stop member does not get in the way, so that traffic can be smoothly performed.
