Description

The invention relates to a shower tray element, which consists of a cuttable material, preferably a foam, in particular particle foam, at least in a designated discharge region and has on the underside a preferably substantially planar lower surface.

The invention further relates to a method for installing a drainage channel in a drainable area, at least in a designated drainage area, of a cuttable material, preferably a foam, in particular particle foam, consisting of a bottom floor having an at least partially substantially planar lower surface.

The invention also relates to a mounting kit for such a shower floor element. In addition, such a shower tray element installed with an inserted gutter.

The invention further relates to a shower floor element, in particular for floor-level and / or floor-flush installation, wherein the shower floor element has a top with a slope and from one side, bottom and / or above formed and possibly having a floor or ceiling cavities.

The invention further relates to a method for installing a shower floor element with from below and / or above outgoing, possibly a floor or a ceiling having cavity areas.

Such shower floor elements and gutters for installation with a shower floor element have already become known in many ways. It is for example on the DE 10 2008 059 514 A1 , the EP 1 782 721 A2 , the EP 2 184 414 A1 , the EP 1 801 300 A2 , the DE 10 2008 046 671 A1 and the EP 1 287 213 B1 directed.

The gutters of different manufacturers usually have different dimensions. In addition, a gutter of a special type of manufacturer can often be obtained in different sizes, that is, in particular different lengths.

In order to achieve a convenient installation option with respect to a shower floor element, it is from the EP 205 007 A2 known to use in such a shower floor element a separate, designed as an adapter part, or the shower floor element immediately form a total as an adapter. In such an adapter, at least the different gutter sizes of a series of a manufacturer can be installed without changes being necessary. It is also known to provide breakouts in an adapter area.

Such an adapter but constructively meets certain limits, if a large variety of gutters to be built. Also looking for an alternative design to consider different forms of gutters.

On this basis, the invention has the object, a shower floor element, optionally with a built-in gutter, specify that is suitable for as many different gutters and / or a simple, functional but also rational installation of a gutter allows or installed with the gutter is. In addition, the invention has the object to provide a related method. Furthermore, the invention has the object to provide a suitable installation set for such a shower floor element. Also, the invention has the object to provide a shower floor element which is particularly advantageously installed acoustically sound and a method for advantageous acoustic installation of a shower floor element.

A possible solution to the problem is initially given in a shower tray element, in which a mark in the form of one or more depressions, grooves or lines pretending that can be formed by cutting gutter receiving area.

Procedurally, a possible solution is given by the fact that a mark in the form of one or more depressions, grooves or lines is set in a formable by cutting gutter receiving area and in the predetermined gutter receiving area an insertion opening for a gutter is formed by cutting and the gutter is inserted into the inlet opening.

A possible solution is also a mounting set for a shower floor element, on the one hand preferably has an area with one or more depressions, grooves or lines for specifying a formable by cutting gutter receiving area and on the other hand a template for forming an adapted to a particular gutter opening area.

The subject matter is also an optionally already installed, shower floor element in which the drainage channel is arranged in an at least partially individually cut opening of the shower floor element. In this case, a part of the opening can be predetermined prefabricated.

A possible solution to the problem is also given in a shower floor element, in which the cavity areas are formed substantially uniformly distributed over a base surface of the shower floor element.

A possible solution to the problem is also given in a method for installing a shower floor element, in which upwardly open cavity areas are filled with a heavy material such as tile adhesive or screed concrete and then a cover in the form of a film is made, the filling and cover either before finally placing the shower floor element is made at its installation or at the installation of the shower floor element.

Further features of the invention are described below, also in the figure description and the drawing, often in their preferred assignment to the already discussed above concept or illustrated, but they can also be assigned to only one or more individual features described herein or are represented graphically, or independently or in a different overall concept, be of importance.

Thus, with regard to the shower tray element, it is preferred that an elongate, substantially rectangular in plan view recess is provided with a formed on a part of the floor plan cutting output area, for example in the form of a vertically continuous opening. It is also preferred that a cutting ceiling extending at least partially and leaving a free space with respect to the lower surface of the shower tray element is formed.

With regard to the installation set, it is also preferred that the shower floor element has a cuttable area which forms the recess as described.

With regard to the formation of the lowering, a way has been taken to design the lowering in a shower tray element (only) so that initially none of the known drainage channels can be used directly without further measures being necessary. For insertion is rather necessary, for example, with a saw or a knife, a cutting out of a certain area, namely preferably of such a range of adapted to a relative to an outer support flange lowered central region of a gutter to make. Preferably, therefore, the cutting output region is formed so that it is not adapted to any concrete gutter - or their central region. Rather, it is more preferably formed so that a correspondingly continuous opening does not fit to any central region of a gutter in question. Eligible drainage channels are commercially available drainage channels of such gutter manufacturers, which are intended for installation generally in shower tray elements.

Due to the aforementioned pre-education of the shower floor element can be rationally created an individual recess in the shower floor element for a particular gutter rationally. Characterized in that an output opening or mark is provided, finds a cutting or sawing element, which is used for this, also a favorable cutting start. The cutting ceiling, which at least partially forms the depression, can be kept comparatively thin. It is easy to cut through. Because it runs with clearance to a lower surface of the shower floor element, in such a region of the ceiling can also be cut when the shower floor element rests with the bottom on the floor.

A built-in shower tray element provided with a gutter according to the embodiments described here is accordingly characterized in that the gutter as a whole, as far as no flange portions are provided, or in the case of Flanschbereichen the central region of the gutter, in a completely or at least partially individually cut opening of the shower floor element rests.

The gutter or said central area preferably lies in a cutting ceiling which forms the depression and preferably extends at least partially into a clearance leaving the free space to the lower surface of the shower floor element.

Alternatively, it can also be provided that in any case the cutting output region is adapted to a specific gutter, preferably its central region. The lowering can then correspond to the width of the particular gutter, optionally in its flange area. Preferably, however, the width is larger. The same applies to the length of the reduction.

A shower tray element described herein is also preferred for ground level, flush mounting, d. H. barrier-free, suitable for wheelchair use, for example.

In the case of a cutting blanket, it is also preferred, if it has a region which extends at a distance from the lower surface of the shower tray element, to form the cutting blanket with a thickness of 2 to 20 mm in this region. Further preferably about 6 to 12 mm thick. The free distance to the lower surface can be 10 to 70 mm. The said thickness of the cutting blanket is also dependent on the density, in the case that a foam is used as a material. At high densities can be favorably realize a relatively thin cutting blanket, which nevertheless has the required stability (in the region in which the insertion is not formed).

The width and length of the depression is preferably equal to or greater than the largest candidate width or length of a gutter to be used selected accordingly. In this case, in particular, the length can also be chosen significantly larger than a candidate longest gutter.

A vertical dimension of the central region, that is to say the extent which the downwards extension of the middle region - if a flange part is provided - or the drainage channel itself, if no flange is provided, is designated as the gutter with respect to the surrounding flange region or the upper peripheral edge of the gutter in a first embodiment, less than the thickness of the cutting blanket. The central region can thus be completely in register with a thickness of the cutting blanket in it. Alternatively, the vertical dimension is also larger than said thickness of the cutting blanket (or as the gutter itself, in terms of its vertical depth, if no flange is provided), so that in this case it laterally follows the surrounding area of the cutting blanket in said central area surmounted below.

An underside of the middle region of the drainage channel can be completely exposed in the installed state on the one hand. On the other hand, sitting or sitting on a heavy material, which may be provided in particular with regard to a sound-favorable design of the shower tray element, can also be provided. The heavy material possibly used here is further explained below.

On the underside of the gutter, one or more feet, connected to the gutter itself, may be formed in a manner known per se, and such a base may be freely suspended in the installed state. On the one hand, the load transfer with respect to the gutter can only be done via the shower floor element itself. So on a lower surface of the shower floor element. On the other hand, but also on a foot or the said heavy material or other sub-base plate, which extends below the gutter.

With regard to an optionally provided template, it is preferred that it be formed while leaving the cutting output area corresponding to a floor plan of the middle area of the desired gutter. In any case, this is particularly preferred when the template is a (paper) sheet-like template. In particular, when the template is a fixed part may also be preferred that the template has a board area, which also engages in the cutting output area for support. It may also be provided in this regard that the user cuts out such a template only from a sheet-like sheet, which has just different outlines for different gutters. The template may serve to apply along its edge a marking line to the corresponding region of the depression or to cut it out immediately along its edge.

A surface of the shower tray element in a region in which the drainage channel is to be used, or more specifically a surface of the described depression, can also be structured by ribs. Preferably, such ribs extend in a parallel orientation to a peripheral edge of the shower tray element, in the direction of the longitudinal direction of the gutter to be installed. In the case of a lowering, they preferably extend in the longitudinal direction of the further preferably provided with a greater length than width reduction. In particular, first and second ribs may be provided, which preferably differ with respect to their length. Accordingly, they preferably have the same width. These ribs can have the effect of performing straight cuts and / or angled separating edges in the region of this surface area of the shower floor element or, in particular, of the sinking. Since the possibly to be used gutters differ in width but also possibly the length, but on the other hand, a middle region of the gutters, or if no flange is provided, the gutter as such, even if with a different width, a designated range of reduction or the corresponding surface area of the shower floor element is always fill, the first ribs are those greater length, which also preferably in the central region of the reduction or the intended area of the shower floor element, based on a longitudinal extension of the reduction or a longitudinal extent of the markings formed. The second ribs, which are preferably ribs of shorter length, are correspondingly preferably associated with the end regions of the sink, if provided. formed or the end of the marking area.

Further, in a middle region in relation to the width of the depression or the region of the marking, a third rib structure may also be used be formed, which is characterized by an even greater width, preferably twice or more of the width of the first and second ribs, characterized. This third rib structure may, preferably in the longitudinal direction of this rib structure extending, depressions have, which are not formed, at least in a part of the ribs, in the sense of a dash-dotted line not continuous.

The said third rib structure can also be provided as a whole (only or in addition).

The width of a rib, in any case a first or second rib, preferably corresponds to one twentieth or more of the width of the reduction or the width of the marking area, up to, for example, in particular based on the third embodiment of the rib, a third or half the width of the Lowering or the marking area.

Another object of the invention, which is also independent of the above-described embodiments, but also combined with one or more features of the preceding embodiments meaning, is a shower tray element, which preferably consists of a foam, in particular particle foam, as described above, at which bottom element of the shower tray is formed on the underside preferably a substantially flat lower surface and extend from this lower surface cavities in the interior of the shower tray element.

In order to specify a particularly sound-technical shower floor element, it is provided in this regard that one or more of the cavities are filled with a relation to the material of the shower floor element specific heavier material.

The cavities, relative to the bottom surface of the shower tray element, with respect to their mouth area in the bottom of the shower tray element, a proportion of the bottom surface of the shower floor element from 20 percent or more, up to 70 or 80 percent, or in some cases even more. The cavities are not continuous as indicated by the term. But it can also be provided through openings that can complement each other for non-through openings, for example.

With regard to the filling material of the cavities is particularly preferred that this has a 10 to 100 times or higher specific gravity than corresponds to the material of the shower floor element as such. For example, the foam material may have a specific gravity of 50 kg / m ³ , as will be described in more detail below, while the filler material, which may be, for example, a screed, may have a specific weight of 1 to 3 kg / l. Accordingly, a ratio of, for example, 1:20 to 1: 1000 between the base material of the shower floor element and the filler results in terms of specific gravity.

The material used for the shower tray element (also referred to above as the base material), in particular a foam, preferably a particle foam, may have a density in the range of 25 to 110 kg / m ³ , preferably a range of 25 to 90 kg / m ³ . It is also possible to use a biopolymer, for example based on cellulose, as the material.

In particular, in this regard, a shower tray element is preferred which already has a gradient surface on the top side and has cavities in the most even distribution possible. These may be formed starting from a lower surface and / or a surface of the shower base element and preferably extending vertically. In particular, they can be passage openings. But they can also have a, preferably comparatively thin, ceiling or a thin bottom. These cavities can be formed in the same way in the area in which the drain or a gutter is to be used. They can also serve as cutting exit openings for cutting out the opening ultimately intended for the particular gutter or special drainage.

In this case, first, the opening for the drain or the gutter can be cut out, the drain or the gutter can then be used and finally in the areas in which laterally with respect to the cut opening results in an expansion, characterized in that the opening in one extent spreading cavity passes, a filling made with heavy material in the sense described.

On the other hand, such a configuration of a shower tray element is also suitable for the formation of conventional receiving recesses for a drain or a drainage channel. In such a case, then the corresponding areas are omitted from the said cavities.

In particular, it is preferred that a vertically projected area ratio, based on a flat base area, between the cavities and the non-hollowed areas of the shower tray element is in the range of 3: 7 to 7: 3.

In terms of production and thus procedurally, it is possible to proceed in such a way that in the described manner, if in this case a cutout of a receptacle for the drainage or the drainage channel is to be provided, this cut-out is made, then the drain or the drainage channel is inserted and subsequently then the cavities are filled with the heavy material. As far as the cavities are also open at the top, it is then further preferred that the top of the shower tray element undergoes a cover in the form of, for example, a foil cover.

With regard to the disclosure, the ranges and ranges of values given above and below also include all intermediate values, in particular in 1/10 steps of the respective dimension, if appropriate also without dimensions, for example 1/10 kg / m ³ , 1/10 mm, 0 , 4 of the width, etc., on the one hand to delimit the mentioned range limits from below and / or above, alternatively or additionally, but also with regard to the disclosure of one or more singular values from a respectively specified range.

Shown and described is a, in the embodiment, two-piece trained, shower floor element 1 , The shower floor element 1 can also be integrally formed in one piece. In a designated drainage area is a lowering 3 formed, which is seen preferably elongated and rectangular. In two-part training, this reduction 3 in a first part 2 educated. Except for a narrow sidebar 22 , the upper side with a surface O of the shower floor element 1 runs in alignment, the subsidence extends 3 preferably over an entire width B of the shower floor element 1 , The sidebar 22 preferably has a width c, one third or less, for example, to one twentieth of the width b of the reduction 3 equivalent.

With regard to elongated in this context, in particular a ratio is addressed in which a length twice or more equal to the width, up to preferably ten times.

In the lowering 3 is a vertical opening 4 formed, which in the present context, as further explained, can serve as a cutting output range.

A width b of the depression preferably corresponds to 100 to 300 mm. A depth t, the Absenkmaß the lowering 3 , preferably corresponds to 3 to 10 mm, more preferably 5 mm.

In the second part 5 is, preferably associated with the opening 4 , a window area 6 educated. Also the window area 6 make one vertically through opening. By that the window area 6 the opening 4 is assigned, he is this immediately adjacent. Relative to an extension direction of the elongated lowering 3 are the opening 4 and the window area 6 arranged side by side transversely to this extension direction. More preferred with respect to said extension direction is the window area 6 smaller than the opening 4 , In a direction perpendicular to said extension direction is the window area 6 However, preferably formed larger than said opening 4 ,

It can be provided that the opening 4 and the window area 6 do not merge into each other. The window area 6 but can more preferably in an edge surface 7 of the second part 5 be intended opening. He can also by a the edge surface 7 be closed in this area forming inguinal portion. The edge surface 7 is in the installed state, such as out 5 visible, in contact with a counter edge surface 8th of the first part 2 , The counter edge area 8th closes in the former embodiment as it were the window area 6 , The opening is preferred 4 also completely within the subsidence 3 educated. Further preferably also such that still within the lowering 3 the edge area of the opening 4 forming remaining sections.

The window area 6 is important for receiving a discharge part, for example, an elongated discharge part with odor trap as it is from the WO 2010/026088 A1 is known and in 5 After installation of the discharge part, the window region is preferably covered on the upper side with a thin closure part, more preferably a sheet metal part. For this purpose, a frame-like surrounding, preferably two- or three-sided, but possibly also four-sided surrounding, to the window area 6 in the shower floor element a frame lowering 9 preferably provided. For example, this results in a possibility of revision.

As in further 1 indicated, starting from the opening 4 by means of a cutting or sawing part 10 an opening area 11 be trained, to an individual gutter 12 , please refer 5 , in terms of a mid-range 13 the gutter 12 , is adjusted. The cutting or sawing is relative to a cutting blanket 14 made partially unrestrained with a distance a to a footprint 15 of the shower floor element 1 , and partly with the exception of the degree of lowering 3 over the entire height h of the shower floor element 1 (in this area). The opening area is preferred 11 only within the subsidence 3 educated.

Especially in the free-span areas of the cutting blanket can be easily and quickly the opening area 11 form. The rib-like thickening areas 16 the cutting blanket 14 stay, as far as the opening area 11 extends into this, at least laterally and thus contribute to the stability of the installed shower floor element advantageous.

In particular 3 it can be seen are, in transverse orientation to the extension direction of the reduction 3 , Below the shower floor element a variety of such thickening areas 16 formed next to each other. They preferably span the entire width of the reduction 3 , More preferably, they then go over integrally into the respective adjoining region of the shower floor element. They also preferably form part of the planar lower surface U (cf. 2 ). The lower end faces of the thickening areas 16 go in alignment with the lower surface U. They further define mutually separate cavity areas 17 , the upper side by the cutting blanket in their configuration at a distance a to the footprint 15 are closed.

In the area of the opening 4 is underside to the free edge 18 of the first part 2 a larger hollow area 17 trained, which is suitable for free cutting and the remaining bridge 19 to receive a drain line to run in this direction. An extension direction of the lowering 3 to the cavity 17 or the opposite cavity 23 subsequent cavity 24 respectively. 25 is still directly from the opening 4 from reachable. The next, the cavity 23 respectively. 24 final thickening area 16 is at the same time in this area the limit of the opening 4 , In addition, a cavity is preferred 24 respectively. 25 formed smaller in width. It more preferably corresponds to about half the width of the cavity areas 17 , The caves 17 respectively. 23 are each only partially through an area of the cutting blanket 14 locked. By the way, they are, because the cutting blanket 14 here also a part of the edge of the opening 4 forms, open. The same applies to the cavities 24 respectively. 25 ,

In the second part 5 On the underside there are also a large number of such described further cavities 17 educated. In contrast to the first described cavities 17 These are preferably designed more irregular. With a substantially triangular or rectangular base. They serve, also in a continuation of the juxtaposition of the opening 4 and the window area 6 extending cavities 17 to allow the laying of an appropriate drain line. Unlike the cavities 17 However, these are only underside, in the remaining connecting webs 16 , opened and the ceiling 20 which is such a cavity 17 in the second part 5 closes upwards, preferably remains untouched.

In the gutter 12 is still a gutter part 26 shown used.

Out 5 it can also be seen that a thickness d of the cutting blanket 14 , in its cantilevered area, is chosen to be greater than a lowering dimension s of the central area 13 the gutter 12 , However, although not illustrated, it is preferable that the thickness d in the above-mentioned cantilevered portion is set to be smaller than a lowering amount s of the central portion 13 the gutter 12 ,

Starting from the middle area 13 extends outwardly on both sides a flange 21 the gutter 12 , This is due to the reduction 3 one. This remains up a step area of the reduction still, as in the assembly site here still a replenishment with tile adhesive and / or sealing slurry is made. This can also be below the flange section 21 be provided additionally or alternatively.

In the embodiment of the 6 is the separation between the first part 2 and the second part 5 so provided that the window area 6 preferably including its frame lowering 9 still completely in the first part 2 is included. This also results in how about 8th it can be seen that the mentioned cavities 17 , except in extending the juxtaposition of the opening 4 and the window area 6 in the second part extending cave areas 17 , completely in the first part 2 are formed.

The 6 and 7 show an embodiment in which the parts 2 and 5 have approximately the same size.

Related to the 9 and 10 an embodiment is shown in which the lowering 3 with ribs 27 . 28 and 29 is structured. As can be seen from the cross-sectional representation 10 indicates the ribs point 27 . 28 . 29 a, preferably for all ribs lying in a same plane, top 30 on, which is opposite the top O of the surrounding area, which is also preferably planar, is lowered by a measure that corresponds to the aforementioned degree of the depth t. In contrast, between the ribs 27 . 28 . 29 left grooves 31 lowered again. Preferably, the Absenkmaß of the grooves relates 31 1/10 to 3/4 of the lowering dimension t.

In detail, the ribs 27 to refer to as the first ribs. These are a medium range, in terms of length, of subsidence 3 assigned. These first ribs 27 extend over a length section 1 the lowering 3 , the 1/4 to 3/4 of the length of the subsidence 3 , preferably 1/3 to 1/2 of the length L corresponds to the reduction. Between first ribs 27 and second ribs 28 are the grooves 31 extending provided, the width of which is preferably a width of the first and / or second ribs 28 equivalent.

Next are also second grooves 32 provided, which are transverse to the grooves 31 run, with the grooves 31 in the longitudinal direction of the lowering 3 run. The grooves 32 preferably have a smaller width than the grooves 31 , More preferably, a width that is 2/3 to 1/10 of the width of the grooves 31 equivalent.

The third ribs 29 have a width that is preferably significantly greater than the width of the first and second ribs 27 . 28 , A width of the third ribs 29 preferably corresponds to 1.2-3 times the width of a first rib 27 or a second rib 28 ,

This can be seen with respect to the third rib 29 again to distinguish two different embodiments. For one, that two ribs 29 are arranged side by side, completely separated by a groove 33 , Here, the groove 33 preferably has a width corresponding to a width of the second groove 32 equivalent. A second type of third rib 29 has groove-like recesses, but in the longitudinal direction of the third rib 29 are not continuous. This is the width of the third rib 29 compared to the above-described embodiment of the third rib 29 accordingly practically doubled accordingly. This type of training the third rib 29 with dead-end cuts or island-like cuts, given by grooves 33 , allows a favorable separation but also leaving cut-out areas in this area.

The mentioned structure of the grooves 33 , so that they only in a rib 27 . 28 . 29 run in, but not traversed, or island-like formed therein, can also for one of the first or second ribs 27 . 28 be realized.

The invention also provides a method for installing a gutter into a shower floor element, in particular a shower floor element with one or more of the features, as explained above. In this case, a shower floor element, which is made of a cutable material at least in a designated discharge area, wherein the material is preferably a foam, in particular particle foam, is one elongated, substantially rectangular in plan and has a provided with a provided on a part of the floor plan cutting-output area, the cutting output area is given for example in the form of a vertically continuous opening, the opening by cutting preferably a portion of a lowering forming , Expanded at least partially with a clearance leaving a distance to the lower surface of the shower tray element extending cutting blanket on the central region of a gutter to be used corresponding opening area to form an insertion and the gutter with its central region in this insertion then used. In this case, moreover, a template relating to this can be used to form an opening surface adapted to a specific gutter.

In the embodiment of the 11 and 12 is the gutter 12 with flange sections 21 shown. However, the description also applies to a gutter 12 without such flange areas 21 ,

It is essential that the gutter 12 in the, here upper, shower floor element 1 in an at least predominantly individually cut opening 4 rests. This opening 4 is in the same width throughout the shower floor element 1 created vertically. Although, as in the embodiment of 11 and 12 as well as in the embodiment of the 5 given, the thickness d of the cutting blanket is greater than the einitzende area s of the gutter 12 ,

The opening 4 continues in the embodiment on the bottom side in a shim 34 , as the same foam part as the shower floor element 1 can be trained. It is preferably formed in the initial state, however, without openings or ribs or the like, but as a continuous plate-shaped part.

The opening 4 is then also embedded here.

Alternatively, the gutter 12 also on the underside by means of here only indicated feet 35 get up and / or, especially if no Unterlegelement 34 is provided, for example, received and supported in a mortar bed.

This can continue below the gutter 12 another drain pot 36 are located.

Related to the 13 and 14 a further preferred embodiment of a shower floor element is described, which embodiment also has significance regardless of the channel receptacle described here, for floor-level shower floor elements as such.

It is essential that underside cavities 17 the shower floor element, outside of a drain and optionally a drain pot and a drain line to be accommodated, with a heavy material 37 fill out. The heavy material 37 may for example consist of mortar and / or tile adhesive. It may also be absorbed here, taken up by gluing, stone elements act. It can also be a screed concrete.

It is essential that the shower floor element as a whole, but possibly with a vertical subdivision as described in a first part 2 and a second part 5 , underneath in the cavity areas 17 filled with the heavy material.

In terms of production, this can be done in such a way that the shower floor element or the first and / or the second part lying on the floor vice versa from above with respect to the - if not used for drain and / or drain and / or drain pot - remaining cavities 23 is filled with the heavy material and then, optionally after curing or with the interposition of a film that can be pulled out after insertion again or remains, is reversed and is used in a prepared area of the soil.

15 shows a cross section through an integrally given here shower floor element with a lower, in the installed state substantially horizontally arranged surface and an upper gradient surface. The gradient is usually lower than shown here.

The shower floor element has continuous cavities 38 , here in cylindrical design, on. The cavities are filled in the installed state with a heavy material, such as tile adhesive or screed concrete. The caves 38 can a floor 39 exhibit.
