• the racks currently on the market are constituted by a combination of metal elements, plastic elements and rubber parts, which requires that prior to the installation of these racks a mounting phase is necessary, which complicates and makes the rack more expensive and consequently the installation of sanitary devices with this system of racks.
• the invention consists of a recessed frame for fastening sanitary elements comprising a box of drive mechanisms, an intermediate water tank and a lower support and mounting structure of the sanitary comprising the three previous elements a single integral piece.
• the lower structure integrates a central crossbar in which two inclined crossbars converge and an outlet conduit that flows into a central area of the central crossbar flanked by the terminal sections of the inclined crossbars.
• a bridge In solidarity with the central crossbar and at the bottom there is a bridge, said bridge formed by a single piece, and associated with the bridge we find a flange that is adaptable to any diameter of a drain pipe of the sanitary element, the drain pipe being fixed through of the bridge and flange assembly.
• the lower support and assembly structure of the toilet incorporates legs that in turn incorporate a height adjustment mechanism.
• the height adjustment mechanism of the legs comprises coaxial slides with the legs, which have two possible embodiments:
• the coaxial slides slide through the inside of the legs and are fixed by means of a threaded element that is threaded on a hole located in the legs, fixing said threaded element by means of a nut located inside the coaxial slides.
• the coaxial slides are threaded rods that are introduced through the lower part of the legs through an insert that has an internal thread where the rod is threaded, so that the height adjustment is produced by the rotation of the rod.
• the rod at the lower end of the rod we find a flat support element in the ground.
• the upper part of the block, the part of the mechanism box, has its blunt edges, that is to say it has its rounded corners so that sharp edges and sharp corners are avoided.
• the frame incorporates a discharge device that has a part in the area of the mechanism box and another in the area of the water tank since the discharge device allows the emptying of water from the tank.
• the water tank has at least one inlet and at least one water outlet, which links to the water outlet duct through which the water reservoir is emptied in the use of the sanitary apparatus.
• the integral part that configures the frame is manufactured in any moldable material preferably plastic, zamac, aluminum, etc; likewise the manufacture of the integral piece is carried out by means of the rotational molding technique or by the technique of injection of the material to be formed.
• the upper elements of the frame are suppressed, resulting in a frame for the installation of sanitary ware sinks and bidets, comprising a single lower support and assembly structure of the sanitary, which integrates a central crossbar in which two inclined crossbars converge, a bridge formed by a single piece associated with a flange for adaptation to any diameter of a drain pipe, said drain pipe being fixed through the bridge assembly And the flange.
• Said embodiment also incorporates any of the two configurations that are arranged for the height adjustment mechanism of the legs. It also means significant savings in materials and costs.
• Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the frame object of the invention.
• Figure 2 shows a perspective view of the frame with the elements added to configure the final element for mounting toilets. Said view includes a detail in a leg of a possible embodiment of the height adjustment system of the legs.
• Figure 3 shows a front view of the same element referred to in Figure 1 with the elements added up to the final configuration for mounting toilets.
• this figure we find one of the legs sectioned, showing the other embodiment of the height adjustment system of the legs, including the coaxial slide that is part of said embodiment of the height adjustment mechanism.
• Figure 4 shows a front view of the frame designed for mounting sinks or bidets.
• the invention is intended to facilitate the assembly of sanitary devices with an element of easy handling and assembly, with which the sanitary devices are mounted in a simple way and with a pleasant aesthetic result.
• the frame is designed to incorporate, in a single piece and made of the same material, all the elements that compose it, that is, it is designed as a single-piece structure.
• the frame is designed to facilitate the installation of a toilet.
• the frame comprises two fundamental parts that incorporate all the elements that give it the subsequent functionality, said parts are the block (1), which is constituted by a box of drive mechanisms (2) together with a tank (3) of water, and a lower structure (4) for support and assembly of the toilet.
• the block (1) comprising the drive mechanism box (2) and the water tank (3) is located in the upper part of the frame, being important It should be noted that in the highest part, the frame presents its blunt edges (15), the edges having been softened to avoid the presence of sharp edges and sharp areas. And finally, located between the block (1) and the pavement, we find the lower structure (4) of support and assembly of the sanitary element.
• the water tank (3) is a passenger compartment comprising four walls and a floor, with a water inlet for filling the tank (3) and, at the bottom of the tank (3), we find an outlet (22 ) of water that connects to the outlet duct (5) of the water that facilitates the emptying of the tank (3).
• a lower structure (4) for support and assembly of the toilet which includes legs (1 1) that incorporate a system for height adjustment (14) of the frame, located Between the two legs (1 1) there is a central cross member (10 ') that provides rigidity to the legs (1 1) together with inclined crossbars (10) that join the legs (1 1) at their highest part with the crossbar (10 ').
• the frame For the internal separation of the tank (3) and the legs (1 1) the frame has a partition (12) located in the highest area of the lower structure (4) of support and assembly of the toilet, which prevents internal flooding of the legs (1 1).
• the lower structure (4) of support and assembly of the sanitary is completely configured by the water outlet duct (5) that starts from the water tank (3) through the lower part of it and joins in the middle area of the central crossbar (10 '), thus joining said central cross member (10') with the water tank (3).
• Conventional installation ducts are connected to the bottom of the water outlet duct (5), next to the central crossbar (10 ').
• Said structure comprises a bridge (6) of a single piece and a flange (7) that adapts to any variation of the diameter of the tube that configures the drain pipe.
• the legs (1 1) have a height adjustment mechanism (14) that has two possible configurations:
• the first configuration comprises internal metal coaxial slides (19) on each leg (1 1) with the same shape of the legs (1 1), said coaxial slides (19) have, in their lower part, with stops of seat (20), which prevent the coaxial slide (19) from entering inside the leg (1 1). Also the coaxial slides (19) also have a groove (24) along each coaxial slider (19) coinciding with the inner area of the frame.
• the coaxial slider (19) is placed in the desired position and a threaded element (21) is introduced through a hole (23) inside the leg (1), the relative position of the coaxial slider (19) being fixed with the leg (1 1) by means of a nut (25) located inside the coaxial slide (19), since the threaded element (21) presses with the leg (1 1) and with the nut (25);
• the second configuration comprises internal metal coaxial slides (19) on each leg (1 1), said coaxial slides (19) are formed by threaded rods (27) in whose lower part there are flat elements (28) of support, which in addition to preventing the coaxial slide (19) from entering inside the leg (1 1), serve to provide a firm support of the frame on the floor.
• the height adjustment mechanism (14) has an insert (26), with a thread inside, located inside the lower part of the legs (1 1) to thread the threaded rod (27), which allows , by rotating the threaded rod (27), adjust the relative position of the threaded rod (27) with respect to the leg (1 1) and thus set the height of the frame with respect to the ground.
• the frame incorporates inserts (13), which generate threaded holes, for the installation of the frame with supports on walls consisting of laminated plasterboard ("plasterboard" type walls).
• the frame can be used for securing any sanitary element with the inclusion or exclusion of the elements that comprise the frame that are not necessary, so except for the installation of a toilet, the water tank (3) is not necessary, so which would not be included in the rack except for the installation of a toilet.
• the connections of the drains and the conduits of the conventional installation are different according to each sanitary element to be installed, varying the diameter and the configuration of the different water inlet and outlet elements.
• the frame is preferably made of plastic and with rotational molding techniques, since, in this way, a homogeneous distribution of the plastic is achieved throughout the piece and the thickness of the wall is suitable to resist the mechanical stresses to which it will be submitted this piece.
