Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a bathroom equipped with a bathtub.

Conventionally, in the above-mentioned bathroom, as shown in FIG. 1, for a bathtub a formed with a folded edge c at the upper end of a side wall b, a bathtub hook f is attached to a bathroom wall d by bolts or anchors e; It is known that the bathtub a is hung by fitting the folded edge c into the gap g between the wall surface d and the wall surface d.

According to the above-mentioned bathroom, even if the bathtub is placed directly on the floor or placed on a bathtub stand, there is a risk of injury due to the bathtub tipping over when draining hot water or during cleaning operations. This method is effective in eliminating the risk of damage to the piping of the bathtub.

However, the fixation of the bathtub a is carried out by lifting the bathtub a once and fitting the folded edge c from above into the gap g between the bathtub hanger f and the wall surface d. Since it is narrowly formed so that it can be hung without swinging, the gap g is pushed wide against the elastic force of the bathtub hook f.
By fitting the folded edge c into the bathroom wall surface d, there was a risk that the folded edge c would damage the bathroom wall surface d when the folded edge c was fitted.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned conventional bathroom problems and to provide a bathroom that can be used safely.

The present invention will be described in detail below based on the illustrated embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the bathtub 1 has a folded edge 3 integrally formed at the upper end of a side wall 2.

This bathtub 1 is made of reinforced plastic, stainless steel, enamel-baked steel, etc., and is placed directly on the floor of the bathroom or on a bathtub holder, and is placed on the bathroom wall 4 from the above-mentioned folded edge. The parts 3 are installed with a suitable gap between them.

Further, an exterior decorative board (not shown) may be hung from the lateral portion of the folded edge 3 that does not face the bathroom wall 4 on the bathtub 1.

Further, when the bathtub 1 is made of stainless steel or enameled steel, an inner curved edge 3a is integrally formed at the lower end of the folded edge 3.

A bathtub hanger 5 is attached to the bathroom wall 4 with bolts, anchors, etc., and this bathtub hanger 5 is attached to the third
By bending the side surface into a substantially half-crank shape as shown in FIG.
A mounting plate portion 5b is integrally formed with a horizontal step portion 5c in the middle, and this is made of a thin steel plate or the like.

This hanging plate part 5a may be formed vertically as shown in the illustrated example, but it may also be formed so as to be inclined as it approaches the wall surface 4 as it reaches the upper end.
The upper end portion 5a' is curved outward so that the folded edge portion 3 can be easily dropped into the gap 6 formed between the retaining plate portion 5a and the wall surface 4.

In addition, the bathtub hanging device 5 has a through hole 5d in its mounting plate portion 5b and is fixed to the bathroom wall 4 with bolts 7. However, if the wall 4 is made of concrete, the anchor 8 should be fixed to the bathroom wall 4. It is preferable that the bolt 7 is fitted into the anchor 8 and fixed by screwing the bolt 7 into the anchor 8.

Further, the width L of the horizontal stepped portion 5c is set wider by an appropriate dimension than the thickness l of the folded edge 3 and the width l' of the inner curved edge 3a shown in FIG.
When the bathtub hanging device 5 is attached to the wall surface 4, a gap 6 formed between the hanging plate portion 5a and the wall surface 4 is formed by the wall thickness l of the folded edge portion 3 and the inner curved edge portion. The folded edge 3 is wider than the width l' of the gap 3a.
When dropped in the manner described later, a certain gap 6a is formed between the folded edge 3 and the wall surface 4.

Lift up the bathtub 1 in this way, and insert the folded edge 3 from above into the gap 6 between the bathtub hanger 5 and the bathroom wall 4.
The bathtub 1 is fixed by fitting an elastic molded product 9 made of rubber or the like into the gap 6a formed between the folded edge 3 and the wall surface 4 to fill the gap 6a.

The elastic molded product 9 is molded with a protrusion 9a integrally protruding from its lower surface, and the protrusion 9a is engaged with the opening 5e formed in the horizontal stepped portion 5c of the bathtub hook 5. The gap 6a may be filled by fitting.

By fitting the protrusion 9a into the opening 5e in this way, it is possible to prevent the elastic molded product 9 from coming off due to impact, vibration, or the like.

Further, it is preferable that the protrusion 9a has a substantially arrow-shaped cross section so that it is forcibly pushed into the opening 5e.

As explained above, according to the bathroom according to the present invention, the folded edge 3 provided at the upper end of the side wall of the bathtub 1 is hooked to the bathtub hook 5 attached to the bathroom wall 4. A gap 6 between the bathtub hanging device 5 and the wall surface 4 is formed wider than the folded edge 3, and the folded edge 3 is dropped into the gap to form a gap between the folded edge 3 and the wall surface 4. Since the bathtub is fixed by fitting an elastic molded product into the gap 6a, when the folded edge 3 is dropped into the gap 6, the gap 6 is smaller than the thickness and width of the folded edge 3.
The folding edge 3 and the wall surface 4 do not interfere with each other, so the folding edge 3 and the wall surface 4 can be easily dropped without damaging the folding edge 3 and the wall surface 4. Since the gap 6a between the bathtub and the wall surface 4 is filled with the elastic molded product 9, the bathtub can be firmly fixed while allowing easy dropping operation as described above.

Further, by removing the elastic molded product 9, the bathtub 1 can be easily removed without damaging the bathroom wall surface 4 etc. due to the folded edge 3.
