A second set of ribbing (17) is a self-standing unit with height compensation, away from the tub base. Both sets of ribbing (13,17) are engaged with each other on installation.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wannenträger aus Hartschaumstoff für verschiedenartige Wannen einer Baugruppe, der als kastenartiges einstückiges Bauteil ausgebildet ist, dessen lichte Länge, Breite und Tiefe auf die bei der betreffenden Baugruppe vorkommende größte außen gemessene Wannenlänge, -breite und -tiefe abgestimmt sind, wobei dem Boden Höhenausgleichsmittel zugeordnet sowie auf der Innenseite Ausnehmungen für einen Überlaufanschluß vorgesehen sind.The invention relates to a tub support made of rigid foam for various types of tubs of an assembly, which is designed as a box-like one-piece component, the clear length, width and depth of which are matched to the largest tub length, width and depth measured in the relevant assembly, whereby the Floor leveling means assigned and recesses are provided on the inside for an overflow connection.

Wannenträger sollen eine möglichst großflächige Anlage der eingesetzten Bade- bzw. Duschwannen gewährleisten, um Verformungen bei Belastung der Wanne zu vermeiden und eine gute Wärmedämmung zu erzielen. Dabei bereiten die unterschiedlichen Abmessungen und Formgebungen vor allem der Badewannen Schwierigkeiten; entweder ist für jeden Wannentyp ein besonderer Wannenträger erforderlich oder es kommt zu teilweise erheblichen Verminderungen der Anlagefläche, was gleichermaßen ungünstig ist.Tub supports should ensure that the bathtubs or shower trays used are as large as possible in order to avoid deformations when the tub is loaded and to achieve good thermal insulation. The different dimensions and shapes of the bathtubs are particularly difficult; either a special tub support is required for each tub type or there is sometimes a considerable reduction in the contact surface, which is equally unfavorable.

Von der Längen- und Breitenabmessung her gibt es bei Badewannen vier Baugruppen: 160 cm x 70 cm, 170 cm x 75 cm, 170 cm x 80 cm und 180 cm x 80 cm. Jede dieser vier Baugruppen umfaßt Wannen unterschiedlicher Tiefe und Außenkonturen; auch die Anordnung der Armaturen, insbesondere des Ablaufs und des Überlaufanschlusses variiert dabei. Es ist bereits daran gedacht worden, für alle Wannen einer Baugruppe einen einzigen Wannenträger zu verwenden, dessen lichte Länge und Breite der Länge und Breite der größten Wanne dieser Baugruppe entspricht. Schwierigkeiten bereitet dabei jedoch die unterschiedliche Tiefe der Wannen; würde auch insoweit auf die tiefste Wanne abgestellt, hätte das zur Folge, daß alle dieser Baugruppe angehörenden Wannen mit geringerer Tiefe entweder unter den oberen Rand des Wannenträgers gelangen, so daß kein ordnungsgemäßer oberer Abschluß hergestellt werden kann, oder keine Auflage auf dem Boden des Wannenträgers haben.In terms of length and width, there are four assemblies for bathtubs: 160 cm x 70 cm, 170 cm x 75 cm, 170 cm x 80 cm and 180 cm x 80 cm. Each of these four assemblies includes tubs of different depths and outer contours; the arrangement of the fittings, in particular the drain and the overflow connection, also varies. It has already been considered to use a single tub support for all tubs in an assembly, the clear length and width of which correspond to the length and width of the largest tub of this assembly. However, the different depths of the tubs present difficulties; If the deepest tub was also used in this respect, the result would be that all tubs belonging to this assembly with a smaller depth either get under the upper edge of the tub support, so that no proper upper finish can be produced, or there is no support on the bottom of the tub support to have.

Diesem Mangel soll der eingangs beschriebene Wannenträger gemäß EP 0 261 521 A1 abhelfen. Bei diesem bekannten Wannenträger sind am Boden Elemente unterschiedlicher Höhe wie vorstehende querliegende Rippen mit Sollbruchstellen, Dämmstreifen, Platten oder Keile angeordnet. Allerdings haften dieser bekannten Bauart wesentliche Nachteile an. Zunächst hat es sich als ungünstig erwiesen, daß alle Elemente nur eine bereichsweise und keine vollflächige Abstützung des Wannenbodens gewährleisten. Weiter wird es als Mangel empfunden, daß vor allem bei den querliegenden Rippen mit Sollbruchstellen kein feinstufiger Höhenausgleich möglich ist. Schließlich kommt es bei den Keilen im Zuge des Wanneneinbaus häufig zu einem unerwünschten Verrutschen aus der einjustierten Position.The initially described tub support according to EP 0 261 521 A1 is intended to remedy this deficiency. In this known tub support, elements of different heights, such as the above transverse ribs with predetermined breaking points, insulation strips, plates or wedges, are arranged on the floor. However, this known design has significant disadvantages. First of all, it has proven to be unfavorable that all the elements only provide partial support and no full-surface support of the tub floor. Furthermore, it is felt to be a defect that, particularly in the case of the transverse ribs with predetermined breaking points, a fine adjustment of the height is not possible. After all, the wedges often slip undesirably from the adjusted position during the installation of the tub.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den bekannten Wannenträger gemäß EP 0 261 521 A1 derart weiterzuentwickeln, daß sich eine möglichst weitgehende Auflage bzw. Abstützung des Bodens aller einer Baugruppe angehörenden Wannentypen auf dem Boden des Wannenträgers erzielen läßt. Das wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch erreicht, daß der Boden des Wannenträgers mit einer dem Wannenboden zugewandten ersten Rippung und die ein selbständiges Bauteil bildenden Höhenausgleichsmittel mit einer dem Wannenboden abgewandten zweiten Rippung versehen ist und daß die erste und die zweite Rippung in der Einbaustellung miteinander in Eingriff stehen.The invention is based on the object of further developing the known tub support according to EP 0 261 521 A1 in such a way that the floor of all tub types belonging to an assembly can be supported or supported as far as possible on the bottom of the tub support. This is achieved according to the invention in that the bottom of the tub support is provided with a first rib facing the tub bottom and the height compensation means forming an independent component is provided with a second rib facing away from the tub bottom, and in that the first and second ribs are in engagement with one another in the installed position.

Diese Ausgestaltung schafft zunächst die Voraussetzung für einen bedarfsangepaßten sehr feinstufigen Höhenausgleich, da je nach der gewählten Eingriffstiefe der beiden Rippungen die Höhenausgleichsmittel mehr oder minder weit nach oben vorstehen können. Darüber hinaus läßt sich damit eine sehr weitgehende Auflage bzw. Abstützung des Wannenbodens erreichen, wozu es lediglich erforderlich ist, die Höhenausgleichsmittel großflächig auszubilden. Ein beim Wanneneinbau erfolgendes Verrutschen der Höhenausgleichsmittel ist ausgeschlossen.This configuration first of all creates the prerequisites for a very fine level adjustment, as required, since, depending on the selected depth of engagement of the two ribs, the leveling means can protrude more or less upwards. In addition, a very extensive support or support of the tub floor can be achieved, for which it is only necessary to design the height compensation means over a large area. Slipping of the height compensation means when installing the tub is excluded.

In weiterer besonders vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß die erste und die zweite Rippung sich in Längsrichtung des Wannenträgers erstecken und nur den Längsmittelbereich des Bodens des Wannenträgers überdecken. Dadurch läßt sich einerseits die vorerwähnte großflächige Ausbildung der Höhenausgleichsmittel verwirklichen, während andererseits die Verwendbarkeit für Wannen sowohl mit stirnseitig als auch mit längsseitig angeordnetem Ablauf und Überlaufanschluß gegeben ist.In a further particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the first and the second ribs extend in the longitudinal direction of the tub support and only cover the longitudinal central region of the bottom of the tub support. On the one hand, this allows the aforementioned Realize large-scale training of the height compensation means, while on the other hand, the usability for tubs is given both with the end face and with the drain and overflow connection arranged on the longitudinal side.

Es hat sich als vorteilhaft erwiesen, wenn die Höhenausgleichsmittel als Platte ausgebildet sind. Diese Platte kann quer zur vertikalen Längsebene des Wannenträgers geteilt sein, was eine vor allem bei geneigtem Verlauf des Wannenbodens günstige unterschiedliche Höheneinstellung der beiden Plattenteile ermöglicht. Zweckmäßigerweise ist die dem Wannenboden zugewandte Seite der Höhenausgleichsplatte ebenflächig, wobei diese Seite parallel zum Boden des Wannenträgers verlaufen oder der Neigung des Wannenbodens angepaßt werden kann.It has proven to be advantageous if the height compensation means are designed as a plate. This plate can be divided transversely to the vertical longitudinal plane of the tub support, which enables a different height adjustment of the two plate parts, which is particularly advantageous when the tub floor is inclined. The side of the height compensation plate facing the trough bottom is expediently flat, this side being parallel to the bottom of the trough support or being able to be adapted to the inclination of the trough bottom.

Gemäß einem weiteren besonders vorteilhaften Merkmal der Erfindung bestehen die erste und die zweite Rippung aus im Querschnitt Dreieckform besitzenden Rippen, die quer zur vertikalen Längsebene des Wannenträgers angeordnet sind, wobei der Querschnitt der Rippen die Form eines ungleichschenkligen rechtwinkligen Dreiecks aufweist, dessen Kathete etwa lotrecht zur Ebene des Bodens des Wannenträgers angeordnet ist. Diese Ausgestaltung der Rippen erleichtert die Herstellung des Wannenträgers und der Höhenausgleichsplatte aufgrund einer guten Entformbarkeit und gewährleistet eine sichere Abstützung der Rippen der ersten und der zweiten Rippung gegeneinander.According to a further particularly advantageous feature of the invention, the first and the second ribs consist of ribs with a triangular cross-section, which are arranged transversely to the vertical longitudinal plane of the tub support, the cross-section of the ribs being in the form of an isosceles right-angled triangle, the cathetus of which is approximately perpendicular to the Level of the bottom of the tub support is arranged. This configuration of the ribs facilitates the manufacture of the tub support and the height compensation plate due to its good demoldability and ensures that the ribs of the first and second ribs are securely supported against one another.

Um diese Abstützung noch zu verbessern, ist gemäß einem weiteren vorteilhaften Merkmal der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß die Hypotenuse des ungleichschenkligen rechtwinkligen Dreiecks Stufen aufweist, die zweckmäßigerweise alle eine gleiche Höhe von vorzugsweise 5 mm besitzen, wobei jede Hypotenuse der ungleichschenkligen rechtwinkligen Dreiecke mit zehn Stufen versehen ist.In order to improve this support even further, it is provided according to a further advantageous feature of the invention that the hypotenuse of the isosceles right-angled triangle has steps which expediently all have an equal height of preferably 5 mm, each hypotenuse of the isosceles right-angled triangles being provided with ten steps is.

Es empfiehlt sich, die gegeneinander zur Anlage kommenden Hypotenusen-Flächen der Rippen des Bodens des Wannenträgers und der Rippen der Höhenausgleichsplatte mit einer Styropor-Auflage höheren Raumgewichts zu versehen. Dadurch werden die Rippungen widerstandsfähiger gegen Druck, so daß sie bei Belastung durch die Wanne nicht bzw. kaum nachgeben.It is advisable to provide the hypotenuse surfaces of the ribs of the bottom of the tub support and the ribs of the height compensation plate with a styrofoam layer of higher density. This makes the ribs more resistant to Pressure so that they do not give in or hardly give in when the tub is loaded.

Schließlich ist aus Gründen der Montageerleichterung vorgesehen, daß in der ersten und der zweiten Rippung Durchgänge in Form von Löchern od. dgl. vorgesehen sind, die bei bestimmten Positionen der Höhenausgleichsplatte auf dem Boden des Wannenträgers miteinander fluchten und in die ein Einsteckzapfen einführbar ist. Dabei wird die Anordnung der Löcher so gewählt, daß beim Fluchten der Löcher A - A die dem Wannentyp X, beim Fluchten der Löcher A - B die dem Wannentyp Y usw. entsprechende höhengenaue Positionierung erreicht ist, was durch entsprechende Kennzeichnungen der Löcher der ersten Rippung für den Installateur erkennbar gemacht werden kann.Finally, for reasons of ease of assembly, it is provided that passages in the form of holes or the like are provided in the first and the second ribs, which are aligned with one another at certain positions of the height compensation plate on the bottom of the tub support and into which an insertion pin can be inserted. The arrangement of the holes is chosen so that when the holes A - A are aligned, the height-accurate positioning corresponding to the tub type X, when aligning the holes A-B, the height-accurate positioning is achieved, which is indicated by appropriate labeling of the holes of the first rib can be made recognizable for the installer.

In der Zeichnung ist ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dargestellt.In the drawing, a preferred embodiment of the invention is shown.

In den Fig. 1 - 5 ist ein als kastenartiges Bauteil ausgebildeter, im Längs- und Querschnitt rechteckiger Wannenträger 1 aus Hartschaumstoff mit den Abmessungen 180 cm x 80 cm dargestellt, der in einem Stück formgeschäumt ist. Er besteht aus einem Boden 2 und einem umlaufenden Wandrahmen 3, der zwei Stirnwände 4 und 5 sowie zwei Längswände 6 und 7 aufweist, deren Außenfläche in bezug auf den Boden 2 rechtwinklig verläuft.1 - 5, a tub support 1 made of rigid foam with the dimensions 180 cm × 80 cm, which is designed as a box-like component and is rectangular in length and cross section, is shown in one piece is foamed. It consists of a base 2 and a circumferential wall frame 3, which has two end walls 4 and 5 and two longitudinal walls 6 and 7, the outer surface of which extends at right angles to the base 2.

Der Boden 2 liegt bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel nicht auf dem Untergrund auf, sondern ist im Abstand davon gehalten; die Abstützung des Wannenträgers 1 gegenüber dem Untergrund erfolgt mittels einer umlaufenden Fußleiste 8 sowie über Längs- und Querstege 9 und 10. - Im mittleren Bereich der Stirnwand 4 und der Längswand 7 sind innen etwa vertikal verlaufende, den Boden 2 durchdringende nutartige Ausnehmungen 11 und 12 zur Aufnahme des Überlaufanschlusses vorgesehen.In the illustrated embodiment, the floor 2 does not rest on the ground, but is kept at a distance from it; the tub support 1 is supported with respect to the subsurface by means of a circumferential skirting board 8 and longitudinal and transverse webs 9 and 10. In the central region of the end wall 4 and the longitudinal wall 7 there are approximately vertically extending groove-like recesses 11 and 12 penetrating the bottom 2 on the inside provided to accommodate the overflow connection.

Zwischen den beiden äußeren Querstegen 10 weist der Boden 2 eine erste Rippung 13 auf, die aus zehn parallel zu den Querstegen 10 verlaufenden Rippen 14 besteht. Jede Rippe 14 besitzt die Form eines ungleichschenkligen rechtwinkligen Dreiecks, dessen kurze, hinsichtlich der Höhe der Fußleiste 8 entsprechende Kathete etwa lotrecht zur Ebene des Bodens 2 verläuft, während die Hypotenuse mit zehn jeweils 5 mm hohe Stufen 15 versehen ist (s. Fig. 6).Between the two outer transverse webs 10, the bottom 2 has a first rib 13, which consists of ten ribs 14 running parallel to the transverse webs 10. Each rib 14 has the shape of an isosceles right-angled triangle, the short catheter of which, corresponding to the height of the baseboard 8, runs approximately perpendicular to the plane of the bottom 2, while the hypotenuse is provided with ten steps 15 each 5 mm high (see FIG. 6 ).

In Fig. 6 ist eine ein selbständiges Bauteil bildende Höhenausgleichsplatte 16 dargestellt, die mit einer zweiten Rippung 17 versehen ist, welche in der Einbaustellung der ersten Rippung 13 des Bodens 2 des Wannenträgers 1 zugewandt ist, wobei ihre Rippen 18 ebenfalls parallel zu den Querstegen 10 verlaufen und die gleiche Ausbildung wie die Rippen 14 der ersten Rippung 13 aufweisen. Da die Richtung und Länge der gestuften Schrägflächen (Hypotenusen) der Rippen 14 und 18 gleich sind, können die Rippungen 13 und 17 ganz oder teilweise miteinander in Eingriff gebracht werden. Fig. 1 zeigt einen vollständigen, Fig. 2 zwei unterschiedliche teilweise und Fig. 3 einen vollständigen und einen teilweisen Eingriff. Die Darstellung der Fig. 3 dient nur der Veranschaulichung; in der Praxis ist jeweils nur eine Position möglich.FIG. 6 shows a height compensation plate 16 which forms an independent component and is provided with a second rib 17, which in the installed position faces the first rib 13 of the base 2 of the tub support 1, its ribs 18 likewise parallel to the transverse webs 10 run and have the same configuration as the ribs 14 of the first rib 13. Since the direction and length of the stepped inclined surfaces (hypotenuses) of the ribs 14 and 18 are the same, the ribs 13 and 17 can be brought into engagement with one another in whole or in part. Fig. 1 shows a complete, Fig. 2 two different partial and Fig. 3 a complete and a partial intervention. The representation of FIG. 3 is only for illustration; in practice, only one position is possible.

In den Fig. 1 und 2 ist die Höhenausgleichsplatte 16 zweiteilig ausgebildet (Bauteile 16a und 16b). Die in Fig. 2 erkennbaren unterschiedlichen Höhenstellungen der Plattenhälften 16a und 16b können bei geneigt verlaufendem Wannenboden in Betracht kommen. - Die Fig. 4 und 5 zeigen, daß die erste Rippung 13 sich nur zwischen den beiden Längsstegen 9 erstreckt; gleiches hat für die zweite Rippung 17 zu gelten. Auf diese Weise ist der Wannenträger auch für Wannen mit seitlichem Ablauf verwendbar.
