Description

[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a bathroom unit, and more particularly, to a bathroom unit formed by a waterproof pan for placing a bathtub and a bathtub placed on the waterproof pan.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in the case of this type of bathroom unit, the waterproof pan for bath mounting is usually formed in a dish shape (basin shape) and is formed in a shallow container shape. In the conventional product, a side wall panel is installed on the wall mounting portion of this type of waterproof pan, and the bathtub is arranged with the outer peripheral surface of the flange applied to the vertical surface of the side wall panel (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open (See, for example, 8-144342).
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Thus, conventionally, a waterproof pan for bath mounting has been prone to become a source of bad odor due to this kind of filth because, for example, hair or the like easily adheres to the water flowing backward when the bath water drains. Therefore, in the past, it was necessary to close the gap around the bathtub with a sealing material, but since the waterproof pan was shallow as described above, the joint between the waterproof pan and the side wall panel was long generated around the bathtub, For this reason, there are problems that the number of work places increases and time is taken not only for work but also that the mold generated at the places of the sealing material becomes unsanitary.
[0004]
Further, in the conventional product, since the waterproof pan for mounting the bathtub has a dish shape as described above, it is usual that the space around the bathtub, in other words, the space between the side wall panel and the peripheral wall of the bathtub becomes large. Therefore, according to the conventional product, there is a problem that the temperature of the hot water in the bathtub is easily taken away by such a large space around the bathtub, and as a result, the hot water is easily cooled.
[0005]
Moreover, in the case of the conventional product, as described above, the waterproof pan for mounting the bathtub is dish-shaped, so that the vertical dimension of the side wall panel becomes long, and the side wall panel installed around the bathtub becomes large and heavy. It was customary. Therefore, according to the conventional product, there has been a problem that the installation work of the side wall panel is difficult and labor is required for the installation of the side wall panel.
[0006]
The present invention has been proposed in view of such conventional problems.
Therefore, the technical problem of the present invention is that it is possible to prevent the odor dissipating around the bathtub without using a large amount of sealing material, to obtain a hot water insulation effect of the bathtub, and to facilitate the installation work of the side wall panel. It is to provide a formed bathroom unit.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The present invention employs the following technical means in order to solve the above problems.

They are formed in the same width (claim 1).
[0009]
In the case of the present invention, the enclosure wall 3 of the waterproof pan 1 may be formed in an inclined shape in accordance with the inclination of the peripheral wall of the bathtub 2 . Moreover, since the heat insulation effect of hot water becomes large between the bathtub 2 and the enclosure wall 3 of the waterproof pan 1 as the space is small, for example, the bathtub 2 is preferably formed to be large in accordance with the volume of the waterproof pan 1. .
[0010]
As shown in FIG. 1 and the like, the water stopper 7 is formed so that the upper portion of the enclosure wall 3 is connected to the enclosure wall 3 in an upright manner, or is formed independently on the upper surface portion 3 a of the enclosure wall 3. It is realized by.
[0011]
In the case of the present invention , as described above, the water stopper portion 7 is formed at the position of the upper surface portion 3a covered with the flange 2a. Therefore, according to this, exposure of the water stop part 7 can be prevented, and unsightly around the bathtub 2 can be eliminated . Moreover, since this invention is provided with the packing 8, according to this, the clearance gap between the waterproof pan 1 and the bathtub 2 can be reliably closed with the packing 8, and a waterproofing effect and a heat retention effect can be improved .
[0012]
Further, in the present invention, it is preferable that the enclosure wall 3 on the washing place 6 side of the waterproof pan 1 is formed with an engaging portion 3b with the upper end portion of the apron 9a at the upper portion thereof (claim 2 ).
[0013]
This is because, according to this, the front surface of the bathtub 2 can be shielded by using the engaging portion 3b without forming a step for engagement on the flange 2a of the bathtub 2. In the case of the present invention, the apron 9a may be formed integrally with the washing pan 9 or may be formed separately.
[0014]
