   einer auf Füssen angeordneten und einen Wannenrand aufweisenden Badewanne,
   einer Wannenverkleidung,
   einer Garnitur für Wassereinlauf, Wasserüberlauf und Wasserablauf,
   einer am Wannenrand der Badewanne gehaltenen Handbrause und
   einer Mischarmatur,
wobei die Mischarmatur eingangsseitige Anschlüsse für Kaltund Warmwasser aufweist und ausgangsseitige Anschlüsse der Armatur mit dem Wassereinlauf der Garnitur und der Handbrause verbunden sind und wobei die Mischarmatur innerhalb des von der Wannenverkleidung umschlossenen Raumes angeschlossen ist und elektrisch betätigbare Stelleinrichtungen mit einer zugeordneten elektronischen Steuerung aufweist, die von einer am Wannenrand angeordneten Ein/Ausgabeeinrichtung ansteuerbar ist.The invention relates to a sanitary device
a bathtub arranged on feet and with a tub rim,
a tub cladding,
a set for water inlet, water overflow and water drain,
a hand shower held at the edge of the tub and
a mixer tap,
wherein the mixer tap has connections on the inlet side for cold and hot water and the outlet-side ports of the tap are connected to the water inlet of the set and the hand shower, and the mixer tap is connected within the space enclosed by the tub cladding and has electrically actuated actuating devices with an associated electronic control by an input / output device arranged on the tub edge can be controlled.

In der Praxis werden die einzelnen Bauteile der Sanitäreinrichtung am Aufstellungsort montiert. Der Anschluss an die bauseitig vorhandenen Leitungen für Kalt- und Warmwasser, der Anschluss der Handbrause, die Montage der Garnitur für Wassereinlauf, Wasserüberlauf und Wasserablauf mit dazugehörenden Verrohrungen ist aufwendig. Ferner ist die sichtbare Anordnung der Mischarmatur, z. B. auf den Badewannenrand unter gestalterischen Gesichtspunkten unbefriedigend.In practice, the individual components of the sanitary facility assembled at the installation site. The connection to the existing pipes for cold and hot water, the connection of the hand shower, the assembly of the Set for water inlet, water overflow and water drain with the associated piping is complex. Furthermore is the visible arrangement of the mixer tap, e.g. B. on the Bathtub rim unsatisfactory from a design point of view.

Aus DE-A 42 39 801 ist es bekannt, den mechanischen Teil eines Handhebelmischers in ein Gehäuse einzusetzen, das in den Rand einer Wanne eingelassen und oberseitig offen ist. Die Anordnung eignet sich für ein Handwaschbecken mit breitem Wannenrand. Die Möglichkeiten zur Anordnung an einer Badewanne sind eingeschränkt. Ein überstehender Handhebel wird sowohl aus optischen Gründen als auch in funktionsmäßiger Hinsicht bei Badewannen hin und wieder als störend empfunden, zumal bei einer standardmäßigen Ausrüstung das Design des Handhebels nicht an die Badezimmerausstattung angepasst ist.From DE-A 42 39 801 it is known the mechanical part a hand lever mixer in a housing that in the edge of a tub and is open on the top. The arrangement is suitable for a hand wash basin wide tub rim. The possibilities for arrangement a bathtub are restricted. A protruding one Hand lever is used both for visual reasons and in functional in terms of bathtubs now and then as felt annoying, especially with standard equipment the design of the hand lever does not match the bathroom equipment is adjusted.

Eine Sanitäreinrichtung mit den eingangs beschriebenen Merkmalen ist aus der Druckschrift GB 2 174 219 A bekannt. Die Montage der bekannten Vorrichtung am Aufstellungsort ist darin nicht beschrieben.A sanitary facility with those described in the introduction Features are known from GB 2 174 219 A. The assembly of the known device on site is not described in it.

Aus der EP 0 283 816 A1 ist eine Wanneneinfassung bekannt, die aus einem massiven Schaumstoffblock besteht. In die Seitenwand der Wanneneinfassung ist ein Schaumstoffelement einsetzbar, welches Ausnehmungen für die Aufnahme von Armatureinrichtungen aufweist.A tub surround is known from EP 0 283 816 A1, which consists of a solid block of foam. In the Side wall of the tub surround is a foam element usable which recesses for the reception of Has fittings.

Die Einheit kann am Aufstellungsort zu Montagezwecken von der Zimmerwand abgerückt und in geeigneter Weise positioniert werden. Die Hartschaumplatten tragen eine Dekorbeschichtung, z. B. eine Folienbeschichtung. Zwischen der Wannenverkleidung und der Badewanne verbleibt ein beachtlicher Hohlraum, der für die Installation der Mischarmatur genutzt werden kann. Die Anordnung erfolgt zweckmäßigerweise so, dass die Mischarmatur durch einen Ausschnitt in einer der Zimmerwand benachbarten Seitenfläche der Wannenverkleidung zugänglich ist. Durch den Ausschnitt sind auch Anschlussschläuche führbar, welche die bauseitig vorhandenen Anschlüsse für Warm- und Kaltwasser mit den entsprechenden Anschlüssen an der Mischarmatur verbinden. Vorzugsweise ist die Mischarmatur mit ihren Stelleinrichtungen sowie der Steuerelektronik in einem im Bodenbereich oder an der Rückseite der Wanne angeordneten Anschlusskasten untergebracht.According to the invention the object is achieved in that the Tub cladding made of plate-shaped parts from one hard set integral foam is built, whereby the molded parts to form a load-bearing component are connected, and that the tub rim on the plate-shaped Shaped parts rests and therefore against tipping movements is secured when the tub rim is loaded. The unit can be installed at the installation site for the room wall moved away and positioned in a suitable manner become. The hard foam panels have a decorative coating, z. B. a film coating. Between the The tub cladding and the bathtub remain considerable cavity that is necessary for the installation of the mixer tap can be used. The order is made expediently so that the mixer tap by a Cutout in a side surface adjacent to the room wall the tub cladding is accessible. By the Cut-out hoses are also feasible, which the on-site connections for hot and cold water with the corresponding connections on the mixer tap connect. The mixing valve is preferably with their Actuators and control electronics in one Floor area or arranged at the back of the tub Junction box housed.

Es versteht sich, dass die Taster und sonstigen Einrichtungen beispielsweise durch eine Folienabdeckung vor Nässe geschützt sind. Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführung der Erfindung sind die Einstellwerte abspeicherbar und durch eine Speichertaste abrufbar. Das ermöglicht die Vorgabe personengebundener Einstellungen. Der elektronischen Steuerung kann auch ein Empfänger für eine drahtlose Signalübertragung zugeordnet sein.The input / output device has sensor buttons for the Entry of default values for the water temperature and / or the filling quantity and / or the time for a tub filling on and is preferably also with a device for the Display of the set values equipped. It goes without saying that the buttons and other devices for example protected from moisture by a foil cover. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention are Settings can be saved and saved using a memory button available. This enables the specification of more personal Settings. The electronic control can also be a Assigned receivers for wireless signal transmission his.

In einer weiteren Ausgestaltung lehrt die Erfindung, daß die Mischarmatur Zusatzanschlüsse für Leitungen aufweist, die mit anderen Sanitäreinrichtungen, z. B. einer benachbarten Dusche, einem benachbarten Handwaschbecken und dergleichen verbindbar sind. Insofern erfüllt die Mischarmatur die Funktion einer Zentralarmatur, die über eine oder mehrere Ein/Ausgabeeinrichtungen steuerbar ist. In diesem Fall ist die Mischarmatur zweckmäßig mit Mehrwegeventilen ausgerüstet, die elektrisch betätigt werden können und ebenfalls an die elektronische Steuerung angeschlossen sind.In a further embodiment, the invention teaches that the mixer tap has additional connections for lines, with other sanitary facilities, e.g. B. an adjacent Shower, an adjacent hand basin and the like are connectable. In this respect, the mixer tap fulfills the function of a central valve, which has a or several input / output devices can be controlled. In this In this case, the mixer tap is useful with multi-way valves equipped that can be operated electrically and also connected to the electronic control are.
