Description

Bathtub shower booth {A SHOWER BOOTH COMBINED WITH BATHTUB}

The present invention relates to a shower booth for a bathtub, and more particularly, since water, fuel, and an installation space can be efficiently utilized, the present invention not only contributes to eco-friendly environment by pursuing the saving effect of water and fuel, but also provides an installation space. In addition, the present invention relates to a bathtub and shower booth excellent in maintaining warmth.

Ordinary bathtubs are in an inclined leaning position, and the installation method is also made by attaching one wall to the wall and making it affixed to the two walls. In addition, the tub can be divided into three types, the circulation type, the input type, and the central hot water type according to the method of supplying hot water.

Among them, the central hot water type is mostly used in foreign countries as well as in Korea. In particular, apartments, hotels, etc. use this method, and many homes are self-sufficient with small boilers in basements.

This method is expensive to install, but there are many benefits to installing it. By storing the water from the boiler in a tank and using it in bathrooms, kitchens, washbasins, laundries, heating, etc., hot water can be used immediately when needed and rescue equipment can be freely used.

In terms of the material of the bath, each has its own characteristics.

First, tiles or stones made of concrete are large in calories, which take a long time to heat up, consume a lot of fuel, and have a high thermal insulation rate. If the construction is not perfect, it is likely to leak. There are many pottery materials, clean, soft and durable, but heavy, expensive, absorbs a lot of heat, and is weak against blow. Plastics are relatively inexpensive and have excellent feel, color, cleanliness, durability, etc., but they are fragile and easily damaged. Complementing this drawback, a tub called Marble was developed to be as hard as stone.

A shower booth, also called a shower room, is installed on one wall of a bathroom or a bathroom and is usually installed as an additional mounting type rather than a single product. That is, a shower booth is generally manufactured as a form of installing a door on an existing wall surface.

On the other hand, such a bath and shower booth is usually constructed or used separately. In other words, since the space of the private bathroom or the bathroom is limited, it is difficult to simultaneously install the bathtub and the shower booth in the limited space even though the bathtub and the shower booth have their own advantages.

However, even in a limited space, if you can install a shower booth for both bathtubs, it must be convenient to use both as a bathtub and a shower booth.

Therefore, the present applicant can not only pursue the effect of saving water and fuel by efficiently utilizing water, fuel, and installation space, but also reduce installation space, and in addition, propose a shower booth which is excellent in maintaining warmth. Reached.

The purpose of the present invention is to use the water, fuel, and installation space efficiently, not only to contribute to eco-friendliness by conserving water and fuel saving effect, but also to reduce the installation space, and in addition, to provide excellent heat retention. It is to provide a combined shower booth.

The object is a booth main body at least one surface is in contact with the installation wall surface to form a shower space therein; At least one opening door for opening and closing one side of the booth body; And installed in the shower space in the booth body, it is achieved by a bath shower shower characterized in that it comprises a bath having a discharge port for discharging the water in the shower space.

Here, the booth body is preferably the other area is sealed from the outside except the opening and closing door area.

The bathtub shower booth may be any one selected from a standalone shower booth and a construction type shower booth forming the shower space by the installation wall and the opening / closing door.

The opening and closing door may be made of a transparent or translucent material.

The opening and closing door may have any one of the opening and closing manner selected from the opening or sliding type.

According to the present invention, since it is possible to efficiently use water, fuel, and installation space, it is possible not only to contribute to eco-friendliness by saving water and fuel, but also to reduce installation space. have.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments, the same reference numerals are assigned to the same components.

1 is a front perspective view of a shower booth for a bath according to a first embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of FIG.

As shown in these drawings, the bath shower unit 100 according to the present embodiment includes a booth body 110, an open / close door 120, and a bath 130.

Details are provided for each configuration.

The booth body 110 is a part forming the external appearance of the bath shower unit 100 of the present embodiment. In other words, the booth body 110 indicates the remaining portion except for the opening and closing door 120.

The booth body 110 includes a bottom surface 111, an upper surface 112, and two side portions 113 according to its position. The bottom 111, the top 112, and the side 113 may be made of synthetic resin such as plastic.

However, since the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, they may be made of metal or glass. If the booth body 110 is made of a metal material, it may be preferable to be made of a material having corrosion resistance, for example, a steel material such as sus. Only then will it be possible to prevent corrosion by water.

At least one surface of the booth body 110 formed by the bottom surface 111, the top surface 112, and the side surface 113 is in contact with the installation wall to form a shower space 110a therein. Here, the installation wall surface refers to the wall surface of one side such as a toilet.

As shown, since the two side parts 113 are substantially orthogonal to each other, for example, the two shower parts 100 may be installed while allowing the two side parts 113 to fold in a corner area such as a bathroom.

On the other hand, in the bath-based shower booth 100 of the present embodiment, all of the bottom portion 111, the upper surface portion 112 and the side portion 113, except for the opening and closing door 120 to be described later is closed from the outside Has a structure. Therefore, the inside of the shower space (110a) is enough to maintain the heat retention.

 In order to have a structure in which both the bottom portion 111, the upper surface portion 112 and the side portion 113 are sealed from the outside, the bottom portion 111, the upper surface portion 112 and the side portion 113 are to be manufactured integrally. It may be.

However, if the integrated production is not easy, the bottom portion 111, the upper portion 112 and the side portion 113 are separately manufactured and assembled together, but the seal area may be treated in the assembly area. .

Although not shown in detail, the inner side of the booth body 110 is further provided with a shower head for a shower. The shape of the shower head may be a bellows type such as a hose or a fixed type fixed to a wall. These shower heads may be installed by selecting an appropriate one from those sold on the market.

Opening and closing door 120 is a part that is operated to enter and exit the bath shower shower 100 of the present embodiment. Bathtub combined shower booth 100 of the present embodiment is provided with a pair of left and right, that is, two opening and closing doors 120.

These opening and closing door 120 may be made of a translucent material, but in the present embodiment, the opening and closing door 120 is made of a transparent glass material. Therefore, its beauty can be added in appearance.

A handle 121 is provided at one side of the front and rear door 120, and a hinge 122 is provided at an area where the opening and closing door 120 and the booth main body 110 come into contact with each other.

By such a structure, the opening / closing door 120 of the present embodiment has an opening / closing structure in which the hinge 122 (see FIG. 2) is opened and closed about the booth body 110.

However, since the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, the opening and closing operation of the opening / closing door 120 may be implemented by a sliding type other than a sliding type structure. However, if the sliding door is to implement the opening and closing operation of the opening and closing door 120, compared to the opening and closing structure of the present embodiment may require more space for the opening and closing operation of the opening and closing door 120.

The opening and closing door 120 of the present embodiment has an elliptical or arc-shaped structure having a constant curvature rather than a flat plate. Thus, by opening and closing the door 120 has an arc-like structure can not only pursue the beauty of the appearance, but also has the advantage that the shower space (110a) can be used more widely.

In relation to the opening and closing position of the opening and closing door 120, the opening and closing door 120 may have a structure that is opened and closed at a time to reach the lower end from the front top of the booth body 110, or the bathtub except the bathtub 130 It may have a structure in which only the upper region of the 130 is opened and closed. The latter method may be more effective at maintaining warmth.

The bathtub 130 is installed in the shower space 110a in the booth body 110. In other words, it is installed in the lower region in the booth body 110.

Such a bathtub 130 may have a function as, for example, a complete bath, or may function as a half body bath or a footbath.

On the other hand, in the conventional shower booth, there is an example in which the bathtub 130 is installed in the booth body 110 in a rotational manner. However, when the bath 130 has a pivotal structure as described above, the installation space is inevitably widened. In this case, it is somewhat incompatible with the object of the present invention. Therefore, in this embodiment, the bathtub 130 is manufactured to be fixed to the lower region of the booth body 110.

Bath tub 130 is provided with a seat 131 as a seating position. Of course, the seat 131 is not necessarily provided in the bath 130 and may be excluded as necessary.

As described above, in the shower booth 100 according to the present embodiment, since the remaining booth body 110 other than the opening / closing door 120 has a closed structure, means for discharging water in the shower space 110a. This is required, which is handled by the outlet 132 provided in the bath 130.

That is, the outlet 132 is provided in the bottom area of the outlet 132 to form a single discharge line through which all the water in the shower space 110a can be discharged.

For reference, an outlet 133 for preventing the overflow of water may be further provided in an upper region of the sidewall of the bath 130.

On the other hand, the bath-shower shower booth 100 of the present embodiment is the same as that of FIG. 1, that is, the opening and closing door 120 of the booth body 110 provided with the bathtub 130 is mounted as it is. Is provided as a stand-alone shower booth to form one independent finished product.

That is, the picture itself shown in FIG. 1 is manufactured by an external manufacturer and has a structure that is mounted as it is in a bathroom of a home.

The independent shower booth of the type shown in FIG. 1 will have an advantage of being relatively easy to install compared to the construction-type shower booth to be described later.

As described above, according to the shower booth 100 for a bath according to the present embodiment, water, fuel, and an installation space can be efficiently utilized, so that water and fuel saving effects can be pursued.

In addition, according to the bath combined shower booth 100 of the present embodiment, it is possible to reduce the installation space, in addition to provide an excellent effect in maintaining the warmth.

Particularly, in the case of the bath shower unit 100 of the present embodiment, there is an advantage in that the bath and the shower function can be simultaneously implemented in a relatively narrow space.

In addition, it is possible to reduce the heat loss due to the excellent heat retention, as well as to reduce the waste of water due to the structural features of the outlet 132.

Therefore, if the bathtub combined shower booth 100 is installed in each home, it must be able to reduce water loss and heat loss, thereby contributing to the environment.

3 is a cross-sectional view of a bath shower booth according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

The bathtub combined shower booth 100 of the above-described embodiment was manufactured as a stand-alone type.

However, the bath combined shower booth 200 of the present embodiment may be manufactured as a construction type shower booth. Here, the construction type means that the worker has a few parts and a configuration to directly work in the existing toilet to produce a bath shower shower 200.

In the present embodiment, instead of separately manufacturing the booth body 110 described above, the booth body 110 described above is omitted, and instead, two installation wall surfaces W1 and W2 in the toilet are utilized.

As shown in FIG. 3, the above-described opening / closing door 120 is installed on two installation wall surfaces W1 and W2 to manufacture one completed bath shower booth 200.

Of course, in this case, although not shown, the structure corresponding to the upper surface portion 112 of the booth body 110 described above should be further mounted, and the remaining joint portion will be hermetically treated to maintain warmth.

4 to 6 are cross-sectional views of a bath shower shower according to the third to fifth embodiments of the present invention, respectively.

In the bath combined shower booth 300 illustrated in FIG. 4, the booth body 310 has a substantially hexahedral shape unlike the above-described embodiments.

In this case, the tub 330, which may be mounted therein, may also have a different shape from the above-described embodiments.

The bathtub combined shower booth 300 illustrated in FIG. 4 is different from the above-described embodiments in shape and shape, and substantially all other components and functions thereof are the same. For example, the bathtub combined shower booth 300 of FIG. 4 may also be manufactured as a standalone type or may be manufactured as a separate construction type.

5 and 6, both of the shower booths 400 and 500 are provided with booth bodies 410 and 510 of which one side is rounded in a square cross-sectional structure.

The bathtub combined shower booth 500 illustrated in FIG. 6 has a structure in which a major axis is relatively shorter than that of the bathtub shower booth 400 illustrated in FIG. 5. Same thing.

7 is a front perspective view of the shower booth with a bath according to a sixth embodiment of the present invention.

In the case of the shower-use shower booth 100 of the first embodiment described above, the upper surface portion 112 is sealed, particularly the bottom portion 111 and the side portion 113. In this case, as described above, it is preferable in terms of heat retention.

When the upper surface 112 is also sealed as described above, it may be preferable in terms of heat retention, but it may be difficult to remove moisture in the shower space 110a unless the opening / closing door 120 is opened.

In addition, when the upper surface 112 is also sealed, a user enjoying a shower or bath, half body bath or foot bath in the shower space 110a may feel frustrated or psychological choking.

In consideration of this point, as shown in FIG. 7, the bathtub shower booth 600 of the present embodiment allows the upper surface portion 112a to be attached to and detached from the side portion 113. As illustrated in FIG. 7, the upper surface portion 112a may be detachably attached to the side surface 113 to remove moisture in the shower space 110a after the shower, and the user may not feel frustrated or psychologically choking.

For reference, in FIG. 7, the detachable structure of the upper surface portion 112a is applied as a cover type of a general container.

However, in addition to this, for example, a structure such as a sunroof of a vehicle may be introduced into the upper surface portion 112a, or a simple slit hole may be formed to open and close the slit hole if necessary. You could do it.

In view of these embodiments, all of the bath-tub showers (100 to 600) of the present embodiments are all devices that emphasize environmentally friendly elements.

That is, because of its excellent thermal insulation in structure, it is possible to reduce water loss and heat loss as compared to the conventional general bath (not shown) or shower booth (not shown) to contribute to the environment.

In addition, the bathtub combined shower booth (100 ~ 600) of the present embodiment is the basic structure shown in Figure 1, that is, the basic structure having an elliptical or circular opening and closing door 120 around the right side of both walls and 3 to 3 In addition to the various modified structures shown in FIG. 6, the remaining two surfaces may be implemented as a square structure in which a transparent wall and a transparent door are connected, and also as a structure such as a square having only one surface as a transparent door using three walls. Therefore, it can be produced in various shapes to match the space of the bathroom.

As described above, the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments, and various modifications and changes can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, which will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Therefore, such modifications or variations will have to be belong to the claims of the present invention.
