Description

The technical solution relates to meeting the vital needs of a person, namely to bathing devices, in particular to portable fonts that can be used, for example, outdoors in recreation areas.

A technical solution is known, chosen as the closest analogue, which is a bathing device, including a metal container containing walls and a bottom, while the walls include at least three horizontal rows located at an angle to each other, each of the rows is made with flat trapezoidal faces mated to each other by the sides, and the smaller base of the trapezoidal face of one row is mated with the large base of the trapezoidal face of the underlying row, while the faces are mated to form ribs, and the bottom is made flat in the form of an equilateral polygon, while the sides of the polygon are conjugated with the lower the bases of the trapezoidal faces of the bottom row. RF patent for utility model No. 185 118, IPC A61H 33/00, published on 11/22/2018.

The technical result of the proposed technical solution is manifested in improving the reliability of the bathing device.

The increase in reliability is achieved, in particular, due to the stiffening ribs formed at the interface of the faces, which provide resistance to the resulting bending load and increase the rigidity of the container.

The technical result is achieved by the fact that the bathing device includes a metal container for liquid, containing walls and a bottom, while the walls include three horizontal rows located at an angle to each other, each of the rows is made with flat trapezoidal faces mated with each other by sides, and the smaller base of the trapezoidal face of one row is mated with the large base of the trapezoidal face of the underlying row, while the pairing of the faces is made with the formation of ribs, and the bottom is made flat in the form of an equilateral polygon, the sides of the polygon are conjugated with the lower bases of the trapezoidal faces of the lower row, the wall thickness of the tank is 1 ,5-4 mm, in the upper part of the upper row, a board is made along the perimeter of the container. The height of the edges of the top row is preferably 600-800 mm, the height of the edges of the middle row is 250-400 mm, the height of the edges of the bottom row is 40-240 mm. The bead width is preferably 35-60 mm. The bathing device may include a frame, the inner surface of which describes a contour corresponding to the cross-section of the container, while the area of the frame contour is less than the maximum cross-sectional area of the container, while the frame is connected by posts with a support made in the form of a figure, the area of which is greater than the area of the frame figure.

In order to understand the proposed technical solution, the conjugation of faces should be understood as an inextricable connection of the faces to each other with the formation of a rib at their junction, made by any method, in particular by welding or by bending from a single part.

The container is made of metal, which has high mechanical properties, such as strength, hardness, ensure the reliability of the product. In addition, the container made of the claimed material, with sufficient rigidity, has a low weight, which ensures ease of manufacture, transportation and direct use of the device.

The implementation of the walls and the bottom in shape and location, according to the claimed solution, allows you to create a device for bathing closed in shape, similar to a hemispherical one, which ensures the stability of the container relative to the axis of symmetry and evenly perceives the load. Stiffening ribs formed at the junction of flat trapezoidal faces located at an angle to each other significantly increase the rigidity of the structure, take on part of the load, increasing the resistance of the structure to the bending moment, thereby preventing its deformation, which in general ensures high reliability of the device for swimming.

The execution of the metal container with at least three horizontal rows, as established by experience, makes the device sufficiently rigid due to the greater number of formed horizontal stiffeners that occur at the junction of flat trapezoidal faces, the smaller base of which mates with the large base of the trapezoidal face of the underlying row. The formation of each row of the container by pairing the faces with their sides with the formation of vertical stiffeners also increases the rigidity of the structure. Vertical and horizontal stiffening ribs take part of the load, increasing the resistance of the structure to the bending moment, thereby preventing its deformation.

Making the faces flat also increases the rigidity of the structure and forms, when the faces are connected to each other, straight stiffening ribs, which increases the overall rigidity of the structure. Each of the flat faces, mating with the neighboring one, forms a straight line along which it is convenient to make a welding seam, taking loads and maintaining the reliability and rigidity of the structure. In addition, the design with flat edges inclined towards each other in accordance with the declared shape of the container is more convenient to use the device for bathing, as it corresponds to the anatomical position of a person sitting or half-sitting, helping to relax the muscles of the back and legs.

Since the bottom of the metal container, which takes on part of the external load, is made flat in the form of an equilateral polygon, the sides of which are conjugated with the lower bases of the trapezoidal faces of the lower row, the device is stable relative to its central axis of symmetry and its stability does not decrease with an increase in the number of horizontal rows or the number of faces in a row. Making the bottom flat also characterizes the design by the presence of additional horizontal stiffening ribs at the junction of each side of the bottom with the lower ribs of the bottom row of the container. In addition, the flat bottom is most preferred for comfortable use of the bathing device, as it promotes the natural position of the human legs.

The execution of the container with a wall thickness of 1.5-4 mm is optimal for achieving the reliability of the device for bathing. It was experimentally found that with a container wall thickness of less than 1.5 mm, the structure, during operation, is subjected to deformations under the action of its own weight, as well as the weight of water and people. With such a thickness, the structure is not rigid enough. At the same time, with a container thickness of more than 4 mm, the design lacks the minimum flexibility that allows it to deform elastically under the influence of external forces, which determines the durability of the product without losing its shape. In addition, the declared range also determines the convenience of manufacturing and using the bathing device, as it allows you to achieve the optimal weight, convenient for transportation and installation of the device on the ground, and at the same time, the declared thickness allows you to make any fasteners in the walls, in particular, for installation seats without damaging structural integrity.

In the upper part of the upper row, along its perimeter, a board is made, endowing the structure with an additional stiffening rib, which increases the reliability of the bathing device. The presence of the side allows the container to be suspended without damaging the integrity of the walls, and is also a means to support people diving or leaving the space of the bathing container, which increases the convenience of its use.

Preferably, the height of the edges of the top row is 600-800 mm, the height of the edges of the middle row is 250-400 mm, the height of the edges of the bottom row is 40-240 mm. The stated ranges have been determined empirically as further enhancing the reliability of the design. When the height of the edge of the upper row is less than 600 mm, the edge of the middle row is less than 250 mm, the edge of the lower row is less than 40 mm, the container design is not strong enough and stable. When using the device, under the influence of its own weight, the weight of water and people, as well as under the influence of weather conditions, such a structure may be unstable relative to the vertical and subject to vibration and deformation. In addition, the overall height of the structure is too low for convenient and comfortable adoption of water procedures, in particular, by reducing the space for the accumulation of air heated from hot water. When the height of the edge of the upper row is more than 800 mm, the edge of the middle row is more than 400 mm, the edge of the lower row is more than 240 mm, the tank design is not strong enough and stable.

Preferably, the side width of the container is 35-60 mm. The lower limit of the side width determines the sufficient rigidity of the container and protects the upper part of the container walls from damage. The upper limit is the maximum for maintaining a stable shape of the structure without weighing its upper part.

The bathing device may include a frame, the inner surface of which describes a contour corresponding to the cross-section of the container, while the area of the frame contour is less than the maximum cross-sectional area of the container, while the frame is connected by posts with a support made in the form of a figure, the area of which is greater than the area of the frame figure. The presence of a frame with a support and racks further increases the reliability of the device, increasing its resistance to deformations that occur during the operation of the bathing device. And also the frame takes on the load from the walls of the container when it is filled with water, which increases the rigidity and reliability of the device. The stated forms of the frame and support allow you to securely fix the position of the container. In addition, this design simplifies the operation of the product, as it allows you to store, transport, and, directly, use the device in a position that occupies a minimum amount of space in space, does not require the use of additional large-sized supports or hangers to fix the position of the container.

Racks provide a rigid connection of the frame with the support and act as elements that take on the load during the operation of the product. Rigidity of the racks avoids deformations of both the tank of the bathing device and the frame with the support, increasing the durability and reliability of the entire structure.

The design of the bathing device is further explained with the help of figure 1, which schematically shows a general view of one of the preferred embodiments.

The bathing device includes a metal container (1) for liquid containing walls and a bottom (2). The walls of the container, 1.5-4 mm thick, include three horizontal rows located at an angle to each other. Each of the rows is made with flat trapezoidal faces (3) mated with each other by the sides, and the smaller base of the trapezoidal face (3) of one row is mated with the large base of the trapezoidal face (3) of the underlying row. The conjugation of the faces (3) is made with the formation of ribs (4), and the bottom (2) is made flat in the form of an equilateral polygon. The sides of the bottom (2) are also conjugated with the lower bases of the trapezoidal faces (3) of the bottom row to form ribs (4).

In the upper part of the upper row, along the perimeter of the container (1), a board (5) is made, preferably with a width of 35-60 mm.

Preferably, the height of the edges (3) of the upper row is 600-800 mm, the height of the edges (3) of the middle row is 250-400 mm, the height of the edges (3) of the bottom row is 40-240 mm.

The bathing device may also include a frame, the inner surface of which describes a contour corresponding to the cross section of the container (1), while the area of the frame contour is less than the maximum cross-sectional area of \u200b\u200bthe container (1), while the frame is connected by racks with a support made in the form of a figure, the area of which is greater than the area of the figure of the frame.

A heat source can be installed under the tank (1), for example, a stove for heating water, while the stove can have the shape of a regular prism, the base of which corresponds in shape and size to the bottom (2) of the tank (1).

One of the preferred options for using the claimed device is shown below by example.

The metal container (2) is placed on a metal stand and filled with water. Water heating can be carried out using a stove installed under the tank. In the container, for example, on the stairs, people climb and take a comfortable position. At this time, the structure experiences loads, in particular, bending, under the action of masses of water and people in the tank. Part of the loads falling on both the walls of the tank (1) and its flat bottom (2) are assumed by the stiffening ribs (4) formed at the mates of the sides of the flat trapezoidal faces (3) and the smaller bases of the flat trapezoidal faces (3 ) with large bases of flat trapezoidal faces (3) of the underlying row, as well as ribs (4) formed at the junctions of the lower sides of the lower row of faces (3) with the sides of the flat bottom (2). Thanks to the ribs (4), metal as a manufacturing material, which has high strength, hardness, elasticity, declared wall thickness and the presence of a bead (5), the structure acquires the necessary rigidity, preventing its deformation due to the ability to resist the bending moment.

In addition, the container (1) is stable relative to the axis of symmetry due to its shape, similar to a hemispherical one, formed by walls and a flat bottom (2), which in turn has the shape of a polygon, each side of which is connected to the lower base of the flat trapezoidal face (3) of the lower row. This shape ensures that the resistance to loads on the bottom does not decrease with an increase in the number of horizontal rows or the number of edges (3) in each row.

The presented figure, description of the design and use of the device do not exhaust the possible options for execution and do not limit in any way the scope of the proposed technical solution. Other variants of execution and use within the scope of the claimed formula are possible.

The claimed bathing device can be used as a portable font for taking relaxing and hygienic water procedures in the open air in sanatoriums, cottages and other places of recreation, as well as a bath tub, when the device is located above a heat source.
