Die Fig. 1 zeigt in Seitenansicht von oben eine Duschkabine
11 mit einer runden Duschtasse 12, auf der ein rundes Glaswandelement
13 samt Glastür 14, das die Begrenzung für die
Duschkabine 11 bildet, ruhen. Im hinteren Bereich des Glaswandelementes
13 ist eine Mehrfach-Duschkombination 16 angebracht,
die ein langgestrecktes, senkrecht verlaufendes Gehäuse
17 aufweist. Vorne sind daran die Bedienungselemente
einer Umstell- und Temperaturregeleinheit 18, eine Kopfbrause
19 in einem am oberen Ende des Gehäuses 17 angebrachten
Schirm 20 sowie eine Handbrause 21 angeordnet. Im Gehäuseinneren
befinden sich die Umstell- und Temperaturregeleinheit
sowie die entsprechenden Verbindungsleitungen. Die Anordnung
der Mehrfach-Duschkombination 16 an der Duschkabine 11 bzw.
an dem Glaswandelement 13 ist in Fig. 2 dargestellt.1 shows a side view of a shower cubicle from above
11 with a
Von der Rückseite der Mehrfach-Duschkombination 16 geht im
Bereich der Umstell- und Temperaturregeleinheit 18 zu beiden
Seiten jeweils eine wasserführende Handreling 23 horizontal
ab. Die Handreling 23 verläuft jeweils an der Außenseite der
Glaswand 13 entlang bis kurz vor die Glastür 14, wo sie das
Glaswandelement durchdringt und in Seitenbrausen 25 übergeht.
Die Seitenbrausen 25 sind im wesentlichen innerhalb der Glaswand
13 angeordnet und weisen nicht dargestellte Wasseraustrittsöffnungen
bzw. Brauseköpfe 26 auf. Bevorzugt verlaufen
die Handrelings 23 in einer Höhe von ca. 1 m bis ca. 1,50 m
über dem Boden bzw. über der Duschtasse 12.From the back of the
Die Draufsicht in Fig. 2 verdeutlicht zum einen, wie die
Mehrfach-Duschkombination 16 von hinten in eine Öffnung in
der Glaswand 13 eingesetzt wird. Alternativ kann sie von der
Innenseite der Duschkabine 11 her befestigt sein. Von der
Rückseite des Gehäuses 17 geht ein Abzweigstück 28 ab, das
nach Art einer T-Abzweigung mit den beiden Relingen 23 verbunden
ist. Diese verlaufen, von dem Abzweigstück 28 abgehend,
frei, d.h. ohne Zwischenabstützung, mit konstantem Abstand
an der Außenseite der Glaswand 13 entlang bis zu den
Seitenbrausen 25. Die Seitenbrausen 25 sind im wesentlichen
an der Innenseite des Glases 13 angeordnet, während die Handrelings
23 von der Außenseite dagegenstoßen. Einerseits ist
es möglich, die Seitenbrausen 25 fest an der Glaswand 13 anzubringen
und sie als Aufnahme für die Enden der Handreling
23 zu nutzen. Eine andere Möglichkeit ist es, die Handreling
23 gegen die Außenseite der Glaswand 13 zu führen, die Seitenbrausen
25 von der Innenseite und durch die Verbindung
der beiden miteinander eine stabile Verbindung zur Glaswand
13 zu erreichen. Bei Duschtassen 12 bzw. einer Wand 13 mit
anderen Geometrien, beispielsweise rechteckig, verlaufen die
Handrelings 23 dieser Geometrie entsprechend.The top view in Fig. 2 illustrates on the one hand how the
In Fig. 2 ist zu erkennen, daß bei einer üblichen Größe der
Duschtasse 12 der Abstand der Handreling 23 zu der Glaswand
13 sicherlich ausreicht, die Handreling als Griff- bzw.
Stützmöglichkeit komfortabel zu hintergreifen, um sich festzuhalten.
Des weiteren können Handtücher o.dgl. einfach über
die Handreling 23 gelegt werden, die bei ausreichendem Abstand
nicht oder nur geringfügig an der Außenseite der Glaswand
13 anliegen. Durch einen ausreichenden Abstand wird die
Luftzirkulation zwischen Handtuch und Glaswand sichergestellt sowie
ein Ankleben eines feuchten Handtuchs an die Glaswand vermieden.In Fig. 2 it can be seen that the
Des weiteren ist es möglich, die Handreling 23 nicht nur jeweils an ihren
Enden mit dem Abzweigstück 28 bzw. der Seitenbrause 25 zu befestigen,
sondern evtl. dazwischenliegende Befestigungen vorzusehen. Diese
können einerseits zur Glaswand 13 führen, beispielsweise an die
Außenseite geklebt werden. Alternativ sind Befestigungsmöglichkeiten
nach Art von Geländerstützen möglich, entweder nach oben an den oberen
umlaufenden Rand der Glaswand 13 oder vorteilhaft nach unten an
die Duschtasse 12 oder den Boden. So läßt sich eine Handreling 23 gestalten,
die für eine maximale Belastbarkeit ausgelegt ist, beispielsweise
bei einer Verwendung für Duschkabinen speziell für gebrechliche, ältere
oder sogar körperlich behinderte Menschen. Es ist als großer Vorteil der
Erfindung anzusehen, daß vorstehend beschriebene Wasserleitmittel bei
einer Dusche bzw. Duschkabine sowohl eine Stütz- bzw. Tragefunktion
als auch eine Wasserführung zu zusätzlichen Brausefunktionseinheiten
übemehmen. Durch verschiedene Ausbildungen der Wasserleitmittel
bzw. einer Handreling 23, beispielsweise aus Metall bzw. aus Edelstahl
und/oder mit besonderen Oberflächenbehandlungen, beispielsweise
lackiert, beschichtet oder verchromt, kann der optische Gesamteindruck
einer Duschkabine positiv beeinflußt werden.Furthermore, it is possible to use the
Die Wasserleitmittel können, beispielsweise im ganz unteren oder ganz
oberen Bereich der Duschkabine 11, komplett umlaufend ausgebildet
sein und vorteilhaft mehrere Brausefunktionseinheiten aufweisen. Hierbei
ist darauf zu achten, daß eine ausreichend große Einstiegsmöglichkeit
in die Duschkabine 11 erhalten bleibt. The water conducting means can, for example, in the very bottom or the whole
upper area of the
Es ist möglich, Wasserleitmittel an der Innenseite der Glaswand
13 entlang zu führen, entweder zusätzlich oder alternativ
zu außen geführten Wasserleitmitteln. Dabei können an
innen geführten Wasserleitmitteln mehrere Zusatz-Brausefunktionseinheiten
vorgesehen sein, insbesondere direkt an den
Wasserleitmitteln angebracht bzw. davon abgehend. So ergibt
sich beispielsweise eine Brausenleiste.It is possible to use water-conducting agent on the inside of the
