Description

  The present invention relates to a bathroom unit, and more particularly to a bathroom unit provided with a waterproof pan for bathtub mounting formed in a deep bottom shape.

Conventionally, as this type of bathroom unit, for example, there is an invention described in Patent Document 1 related to the proposal of the present applicant.
The conventional product includes a waterproof pan for placing a bathtub, a bathtub placed on the waterproof pan, and a support member provided below the waterproof pan to support the bathtub. The surrounding wall other than the washing room side is formed at substantially the same height as the bathtub, and the wall mounting part for installing the side wall panel is formed on the flange part other than the washing room side of the bathtub.

By the way, this kind of bathroom unit has the advantage that the odor generated around the bathtub can be prevented by the deep bottom type waterproof pan, and the hot water in the bathtub can be kept warm. In addition, when the waterproof pan is made of a soft material, it is difficult to break even when subjected to an impact during construction, etc. Soft materials such as resin sheets can reduce the weight of the waterproof pan, reduce costs, and facilitate construction. It can be further improved.
However, in the conventional product, as described above, a wall mounting portion is formed on the flange portion of the bathtub, and a wall is constructed around the bathtub by attaching the lower end of the side wall panel to the wall mounting portion in a watertight manner.
Therefore, in the case of the conventional product, for example, when replacing the bathtub, it was necessary to disassemble the side panel including the side wall panel. There was a problem.
Thus, conventionally, there is a structure in which a wall mounting portion is formed at the upper end portion of the enclosure wall of the deep bottom type waterproof pan and the side wall panel is supported by the waterproof pan (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
However, in this case, since the weight of the side wall panel is added to the enclosure wall of the waterproof pan, it is necessary to form the enclosure wall thickly and firmly. Therefore, according to this, there is a problem that the cost of the waterproof pan cannot be avoided and the waterproof pan made of a soft material cannot be used.
Conventionally, when the outer peripheral surface of the bathtub is closed with a waterproof pan made of a soft material, the shielding work around the upper end portion of the enclosure wall of the waterproof pan and the flange portion of the bathtub is often inconvenient and cannot be easily performed.
JP 2007-92346 A JP 2007-190294 A

The present invention has been proposed in view of such problems of conventional products.
Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that, in a bathroom unit having a deep-bottomed waterproof pan, the bathtub can be replaced without disassembling the side wall panel around the bathtub, and the strength is low. An object of the present invention is to provide a bathroom unit formed so that a waterproof pan and a waterproof pan made of a soft material can be used, and a shield work between the waterproof pan and a bathtub can be easily and reliably performed.

The present invention employs the following technical means in order to solve the above problems.
That is, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG . 1 , FIG. 2, FIG. 6, etc., a waterproof pan 1 for placing a bathtub 2, a bathtub 2 placed on the waterproof pan 1, and a washing place 3 for the bathtub 2. And an apron member 4 that covers the front surface of the waterproof pan 1, and the surrounding wall 1 a other than the washing place 3 side of the waterproof pan 1 is formed at substantially the same height as the bathtub 2. The surrounding wall 1 a surrounds the bathtub 2. Is a bathroom unit that is closed, and includes a frame member 5 that receives the flange portion 2a other than the washing place 3 side of the bathtub 2 and a column member 6 that supports the frame member 5, and the upper surface of the frame member 5 A wall mounting portion 5a that engages the lower end of the side wall panel 7 is formed on the outside of the wall mounting portion 5a, and the falling piece 2b of the flange portion 2a of the bathtub 2 is engaged with the upper surface position of the frame member 5 that is inside the wall mounting portion 5a. An engagement portion 5b for the bathtub 2 to be combined is formed, and the inside of the engagement portion 5b for the bathtub 2 is formed. An engaging portion 5c for the waterproof pan 1 for engaging the upper end portion of the enclosure wall 1a of the waterproof pan 1 is formed at the upper surface position of the frame member 5 corresponding to the side, and the column member 6 is provided on both sides of the apron member 4. The column member 6 is connected to the end of the frame member 5 on the washing place 3 side and the side end of the apron member 4, and the upper end surface 6 a of the column member 6 is connected to the frame member 5. It is formed in the shape of a continuous surface that is flush with the upper surface (Claim 1).

  In the case of the present invention, the shape of the frame member 5 conforms to the outer shape of the bathtub 2. Therefore, when the bathtub 2 is a rectangle such as a rectangle in plan view, the frame member 5 is also formed in a substantially U shape in plan view.

Thus, in the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1B, the bathtub 2 is watertight on the frame member 5 with the upper end portion of the enclosure wall 1a of the waterproof pan 1 at the inner position of the falling piece 2b on the back surface of the flange portion 2a. Preferably, it is formed with a hanging piece 2c for mounting in a shape (Claim 2).
This is because the upper end of the enclosure wall 1a of the waterproof pan 1 can be connected to the frame member 5 in a watertight manner by using the hanging piece 2c, and can be shielded more reliably.

In the case of the present invention, the wall mounting portion 5a is positioned higher than the engaging portion 5b for the bathtub 2 and the engaging portion 5c for the waterproof pan 1, as shown in FIG. 1B and FIG. (Claim 3).
This is because the water overflowing from the bathtub 2 and the water flowing down the side wall panel 7 are less likely to flow out of the bathroom, and the water tightness around the bathtub 2 can be improved.

  Moreover, as for this invention, as FIG. 7 shows, it is preferable that the recessed part 5b1 to which the lower end of the falling piece 2b of the flange part 2a of the bathtub 2 fits is formed in the engaging part 5b for the bathtub 2. (Claim 4).

This is because the displacement of the bathtub 2 can be prevented and the construction can be facilitated, and the lower end of the falling piece 2b of the flange portion 2a of the bathtub 2 can be firmly engaged.

In the bathroom unit having the deep bottom waterproof pan, the present invention includes a frame member that receives a flange portion other than the washing room side of the bathtub, and a column member that supports the frame member, and the frame member described above In order from the outside to the inside, a wall-mounted portion, an engaging portion for a bathtub, and an engaging portion for a waterproof pan are formed on the upper surface of the top, and the above column members are paired on the left and right sides of the apron member. The end of the frame member on the washing area side and the side end of the apron member are connected to the column member, and the upper end surface of the column member is formed in a continuous surface that is flush with the upper surface of the frame member. It is what has been.

Therefore, in the case of the present invention, it is possible to perform the construction with few replacement parts without removing the side wall panel from the frame member when the bathtub is replaced.
In the case of the present invention, the side wall panel can be supported by the column member via the frame member. Therefore, it is possible to use a lightweight and thin waterproof pan or a waterproof pan made of a soft material.
Moreover, this invention can be attached to a frame member with the flange part of a bathtub, and the upper end part of the enclosure wall of a waterproof pan, and to attach in a watertight form. Therefore, according to this, it is possible to connect the flange portion of the bathtub and the deep-bottomed waterproof pan with a simple structure and a small number of parts at low cost and in a state where the water tightness is improved by surface contact.
Further, according to the present invention, not only the apron member can be attached and the frame member can be supported by the column member, but also water that penetrates into the upper surface of the frame member is transferred from the upper end surface of the column member to the washing place. The water can be drained in an orderly and smooth manner.
