Abstract

A side panel (3) is fixed (5) to the wall (1) in rails (10) by which it can be moved with a corresponding system perpendicularly arranged wall and the floor (6) is transparent so that various patterns of shower cabin (7) can be inserted in the space (12) beneath the floor.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Demonstrationsdusche, die einen rechteckigen, vorzugsweise quadratischen Querschnitt aufweist und durch vier Seitenwände gebildet wird.The invention relates to a demonstration shower, which has a rectangular, preferably square cross-section and is formed by four side walls.

Mit Hilfe dieser Demonstrationsdusche soll es einem möglichen Käufer und Interessenten ermöglicht werden, die richtige Form und die richtige Abmessung für seine individuellen Vorstellungen auszuwählen.With the help of this demonstration shower, it should be possible for a potential buyer and prospective customer to choose the right shape and the right size for their individual ideas.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe sind zwei der Seitenwände an den anderen ortsfesten Seitenwänden quer verschiebbar angeordnet, so dass die Querschnittsfläche der Duschkabine größer oder kleiner eingestellt werden kann. Die verschiebbaren Seitenwände sind so in ihrer Breite dimensioniert, dass sie eine ausreichende Einstiegsöffnung freilassen.To solve this problem, two of the side walls on the other stationary side walls are arranged transversely displaceable, so that the cross-sectional area of the shower cubicle can be set larger or smaller. The sliding side walls are dimensioned in width so that they leave a sufficient manhole.

Der Boden kann in unterschiedlicher Weise ausgebildet sein.The floor can be designed in different ways.

Bei einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform werden im Bereich des Bodens Schablonen angeordnet, die die unterschiedlichen Abmessungen, Umrisse oder Formen des Querschnitts der Duschkabine wiedergeben. Diese Lösung ist in Anspruch 2 unter Schutz gestellt.In an advantageous embodiment, templates are arranged in the region of the bottom, which represent the different dimensions, contours or shapes of the cross section of the shower cubicle. This solution is provided in claim 2 under protection.

Bei einer anderen Ausführungsform (Anspruch 6) wird der Boden durch optoelektronische Bauelemente, z.B. Leuchtdioden, Leuchtfolien oder Laserdioden gebildet, die durch entsprechende Einschaltung den ausgewählten Umriss des Querschnitts der Duschkabine wiedergeben.In another embodiment (claim 6) the floor is replaced by opto-electronic components, e.g. Light emitting diodes, light foils or laser diodes formed, which play by appropriate switching the selected outline of the cross section of the shower cubicle.

In besonders vorteilhafter Weise ist der Boden durchsichtig, vorzugsweise aus Glas ausgebildet und auf seiner der Duschkabine abgelegenen Seite ist ein Fach zur Aufnahme einer Schablone vorgesehen. Diese Schablone gibt die unterschiedlichen Abmessungen und Formen des Querschnitts der Duschkabine wieder. Die Schablone kann unterschiedliche Abmessungen zur Einstellung von rechteckigen oder quadratischen Querschnitten aufweisen. Sie kann aber auch kreisförmige oder viertelkreisförmige Formen wiedergeben, auf die dann die verschiebbaren Seitenwände eingestellt werden, um dem Interessenten die Möglichkeit zu geben, die tatsächlichen Raumverhältnisse zu testen.In a particularly advantageous manner, the floor is transparent, preferably made of glass and on its side remote from the shower cubicle a compartment for receiving a template is provided. This template reflects the different dimensions and shapes of the cross-section of the shower cubicle. The template can have different dimensions for setting rectangular or square cross sections. But it can also play circular or quarter-circle shapes, on which then the sliding side walls are adjusted to give the prospect the opportunity to test the actual space conditions.

Zur Aufnahme unterschiedlicher Schablonen ist wie in Anspruch 4 definiert eine Schublade vorgesehen.To accommodate different templates as defined in claim 4 defines a drawer.

Auf einer Schablone können mehrere Abmessungen und Querschnittsformen mit unterschiedlichen Symbolen oder Farben dargestellt sein, so dass es auch mit einer Schablone möglich ist, durch Verschieben der verschiebbaren Seitenwände in einem Arbeitsgang mehrere Querschnittsabmessungen einzustellen.On a template, several dimensions and cross-sectional shapes can be represented with different symbols or colors, so that it is also possible with a template to set several cross-sectional dimensions by moving the sliding side walls in one operation.

Die verschiebbaren Seitenwände sind mit Hilfe von Halterungen in waagerechten Schienen gelagert, die in den ortfesten Seitenwänden und im Boden vorgesehen sind. In diesen Schienen kann die entsprechende Seitenwand so verschoben werden, dass sie ihre senkrechte Lage im wesentlichen rechtwinklig zu der zugeordneten ortsfesten Seitenwand beibehält.The sliding side walls are supported by means of brackets in horizontal rails, which are provided in the stationary side walls and in the floor. In these rails, the corresponding side wall can be displaced so that it maintains its vertical position substantially perpendicular to the associated stationary side wall.

Durch die Demonstrationsdusche mit rechteckigen, vorzugsweise quadratischem Boden ist es möglich, durch die Verschiebbarkeit zweier Seitenwände an den rechtwinklig zueinander stehenden ortsfesten Seitenwänden unterschiedliche Abmessungen für Querschnitt und Form einzustellen, so dass der Interessent eine genaue Vorstellung von den Raumverhältnissen erhält. Die Schablone gibt unterschiedliche Formen, auch solche kreisförmig, halbkreisförmig oder anderer Vielecke wieder.By the demonstration shower with rectangular, preferably square bottom, it is possible by the displaceability of two side walls at the right angles to each other standing fixed side walls set different dimensions for cross-section and shape, so that the interested party receives a precise idea of the space conditions. The template reflects different shapes, including circular, semi-circular or other polygons.

Im folgenden wird die Erfindung unter Hinweis auf die Zeichnung anhand eines Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert.In the following the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawing with reference to an embodiment.

Die in den Figuren 1 bis 4 dargestellte Demonstrationsdusche besteht aus zwei ortsfesten Seitenwänden 1 und 11 und einer Bodenplatte 2. Zwei verschiebbare Seitenwände, vorzugsweise aus Glas 3 und 13 vervollständigen die Demonstrationsdusche. Die beiden Seitenwände 3 und 13 sind über Halterungen 5 in waagerechten Schienen 10 im Boden und in der zugeordneten Seitenwand verschiebbar, wobei sie während des Verschiebens im wesentlichen ihre senkrechte und zu der zugeordneten ortsfesten Seitenwand rechtwinklige Positionen beibehalten. Es ist ohne weiteres erkennbar, dass eine unterschiedliche rechteckige oder quadratische Querschnittsform eingestellt werden kann.The demonstration shower shown in Figures 1 to 4 consists of two stationary side walls 1 and 11 and a bottom plate 2. Two sliding side walls, preferably made of glass 3 and 13 complete the demonstration shower. The two side walls 3 and 13 are slidable via brackets 5 in horizontal rails 10 in the bottom and in the associated side wall, while maintaining substantially perpendicular during their displacement and to the associated stationary side wall positions. It is readily apparent that a different rectangular or square cross-sectional shape can be adjusted.

Der eigentliche Boden 6 ist durchsichtig, vorzugsweise aus Glas. Unterhalb des durchsichtigen Bodens 6 befindet sich ein Fach 12, in das eine Schablone 7a eingeschoben werden kann, die eine bestimmte Querschnittsform oder auch mehrere Querschnittsformen gleichzeitig darstellt. Unterhalb des Faches 12 befindet sich eine Schublade 9, die verschiedene Schablonen 7 mit den unterschiedlichsten Querschnittsformen aufnimmt. Diese Schablonen 7 können dann wahlweise in das Fach 12 eingeschoben werden.The actual bottom 6 is transparent, preferably made of glass. Below the transparent bottom 6 there is a compartment 12, in which a template 7a can be inserted, which represents a certain cross-sectional shape or several cross-sectional shapes simultaneously. Below the compartment 12 is a drawer 9, which receives various templates 7 with a variety of cross-sectional shapes. These templates 7 can then optionally be inserted into the compartment 12.

In Fig. 3 ist eine Schablone 7 als Beispiel dargestellt, die mehrere unterschiedlich markierte oder eingefärbte kreis- oder viertelkreisförmige Querschnitte für eine Duschkabine darstellt. Die Seitenwände 3 und 13 können senkrecht in den Schienen 10 so verschoben werden, dass sie zur Tangente eines ausgewählten Kreisquerschnittes werden. Der Interessent kann dann die Raumverhältnisse genau einstellen und testen.In Fig. 3, a template 7 is shown as an example, which represents a plurality of differently marked or colored circular or quarter-circular cross-sections for a shower cubicle. The side walls 3 and 13 can be displaced vertically in the rails 10 so that they become the tangent of a selected circular cross section. The interested party can then set and test the space exactly.

In Fig. 4 ist eine Schablone 7 dargestellt, die grundsätzlich derjenigen entspricht, die in Fig. 3 verwendet wurde. Diese Schablone zeigt verschiedene kreisförmige oder viertelkreisförmige Querschnitte für einen auszuwählenden Querschnitt einer Duschkabine.FIG. 4 shows a template 7 which basically corresponds to that used in FIG. This template shows various circular or quarter-circle cross-sections for a selectable cross section of a shower cubicle.

An den ortsfesten Seitenwänden können Zusatzteile wie Duschstange, Armaturen oder Accessoires angebracht sein.On the fixed side walls additional parts such as shower rod, fittings or accessories may be appropriate.

In Fig. 5 ist eine andere Ausführungsform eines Bodens dargestellt, der durch optoelektronische Bauelemente 14, z.B. Leuchtdioden gebildet ist. Diese Leuchtdioden können wie durch den Umriss 15 veranschaulicht in unterschiedlicher Weise vorprogrammiert eingeschaltet werden, um verschiedene Umrisse und Querschnittsformen für die Duschkabine wiederzugeben. Der Benutzer kann diese unterschiedlichen Umrisse und Formen über ein Tastaturfeld oder touch screen abrufen.In Fig. 5, another embodiment of a floor is shown, which is formed by optoelectronic components 14, e.g. Light-emitting diodes is formed. These light-emitting diodes may be pre-programmed in various ways, as illustrated by the outline 15, to reflect various outlines and cross-sectional shapes for the shower enclosure. The user can retrieve these different outlines and shapes via a keypad or touch screen.
