Definitions

  • the invention is based on a method for producing a jointless shower plate, which is installed in bathrooms or as a separate shower area with or without support body.
  • One-piece shower trays not only ensure the tightness of the shower stall, but also give bathrooms an exclusive look, especially when installed in the same material as the adjoining floor and level therewith.
  • a continuous transition from the bathroom floor to the shower area fulfills the requirements of a barrier-free bathroom.
  • the shower plate made of any workable waterproof natural material, such as natural stone or wood, but also made of ceramic or resin-bonded materials.
  • Known is this one consisting of a floor with peripheral edge shower tray made of natural stone, the bottom surface of which from the edge to Water outlet has stepped surface.
  • the stepped surface is made by milling a two plane-parallel planes having natural stone block, the router per step is performed in a plane parallel to the plane-parallel surfaces level (DE 195 41 692 Al).
  • the disadvantage of this shower tray is that the stepped floor surface, even if the difference in height from level to level is only less than 1 mm, is felt to be disturbing on the feet. Also, purely visually, the surface is not homogeneous, whereby the aesthetics of the shower is impaired.
  • Another disadvantage is that residues of water and dirt stick to the steps and a stepped floor surface is harder to clean than a smooth surface.
  • a disadvantage is also the elaborate machining process, in which the milling cutter must be guided according to the number of stages in different levels.
  • Another shower tray made of natural stone consists of a smooth-surfaced floor with a peripheral edge and a water outlet, the floor has a sloping from the edge to the water surface.
  • the edge of the shower tray is flush with the adjacent upper floor connected (DE 201 17 836 Ul).
  • the peripheral edge which is apparently intended to prevent the escape of water in the area of the topsoil disturbing in two ways: First, it affects the overall aesthetic effect of the shower tray made of natural stone, as it represents a clear visual interruption between the shower tray and adjacent topsoil, and on the other hand, the edge formed by it interferes with the human foot or can sometimes cause a considerable risk of injury to him represent. Furthermore, the joining of shower tray and topsoil is associated with additional effort.
  • the inventive method with the features of claim 1 is a very comfortable processing method, with which a shape-variable surface shape of the shower base can be achieved in a continuous operation.
  • the desired shape of the shower tray that forms the drainage surface for the water is stored in a data processing program that controls, for example, a CNC processing machine.
  • a data processing program that controls, for example, a CNC processing machine.
  • Existing material blocks shower plates for exclusive bathrooms in any shape desired by the customer, despite that it is in each shower plate is essentially a custom-made, are made relatively inexpensive.
  • the shape of the shower floor affects not only the pure gradient surface, but also their peripheral shape, d. H. its edge area, where the slope begins, and the opening for the water outlet.
  • any shapes are also conceivable.
  • special designs of the water supply to the outlet for example, the production of arbitrarily curved surfaces, integrated into the machining process.
  • the drainage surface of the shower plate is first prepared, wherein the machining tool is moved away from its upper edge to the lowest point of the shower plate and in the reverse direction. Whenever the processing tool moves toward the edge of the shower tray, it runs out on the surface of the shower tray, creating a step-free transition from the drainage surface to the edge of the shower tray. In this procedure, the contour of the drainage surface is formed successively in the course of processing. In this way, it is possible to visually highlight the drainage surface with respect to the edge region of the shower plate without a disturbing paragraph.
  • the heel-free transition from the drainage area to the untreated edge area is particularly important for the area of entry and exit of the shower tray.
  • the contour of the upper edge of the drainage surface is first prepared after the production of the material block.
  • they will be material blocks that have two plane-parallel surfaces.
  • this edge contour will represent a closed horizontal of any shape, from which the arbitrarily shaped slope leads to the drain opening of the shower plate. The beginning of processing with this horizontal simplifies the programming of the machining process.
  • adjacent to the unprocessed edge of the shower plate upper edge of the drainage surface is chamfered. This achieves an even smoother transition from the drainage surface to the edge of the shower tray. This is particularly advantageous if, due to thickness tolerances of the material block in this transition region slight differences in height, which can move in the range of tenths to a few millimeters, occur. These height differences are masked by chamfering.
  • the production of the drain opening is integrated into the machining process.
  • the preparation of the recess for covering the drain opening is then integrated into the process at the same time. This creates the shower tray in an uninterrupted process.
  • This procedure is also advantageous because in the program control anyway the position of the drain opening must be considered as the lowest point of the drainage area.
  • the drain opening is introduced after the completion of the drainage surface at its lowest point without interruption of the machining process in the shower tray.
  • the preparation of the recess for the cover of the spout is then integrated into the process at the same time.
  • the machining tool only needs to work out the block of material at its thinnest point.
  • the drainage surface and the drain opening are machined out of the block of material by 3-D milling. This method allows rapid processing with conventional tools and processing machines and is therefore particularly inexpensive.
  • the drainage surface of the shower plate is subjected to a finish processing. So z. B. by a final sandblasting depending on the grain used a refinement of the surface or a roughening to improve slip resistance can be achieved. The introduction of patterns to improve the aesthetic appearance is possible in this way.
  • a shower panel produced according to the invention is characterized in that the transition from the unprocessed edge surface of the base body to the processed drainage surface is formed continuously, at least in the region of the exit, as without disturbing shoulders. As a result, this area is virtually unnoticeable for the human foot and thus does not pose a risk of injury.
  • the transition from the edge region into the drainage surface is designed as a continuous surface which surrounds the drainage surface as a closed contour.
  • the peripheral shape of the drainage surface is highlighted particularly well, since this edge region is continuously changed by the machining tool in its surface structure, regardless of thickness tolerances of the material block. Since the thickness tolerances are usually only a few tenths to a millimeter, thereby no appreciable paragraph may arise.
  • the production of this continuously processed edge region can, as described in claim 3, take place at the beginning of the machining process. In addition to its aesthetic effect, this edge area still has an essential technical function: since it has a rougher surface structure than the adjacent untreated edge, it simultaneously interrupts the capillary action of the water and thus impedes the flow of water to the outside.

Its surface is formed by an uninterrupted, slightly concave gradient surface 4 and a surrounding outer edge 5. Although it is made by a material-removing process, the slope surface 4 has no, so not caused by their production, edges or heels, so that their quality with respect to the haptic sensation from the outer edge to the water well with the smooth surface deep-drawn or cast shower bases is comparable.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un bac de douche sans joints, qui est installé dans des établissements de baignade ou en tant qu'emplacement de douche isolé, avec ou sans corps porteur, avantageusement à surface plane avec le sol voisin. Elle concerne aussi un bac de douche sans joints. La surface d'écoulement (4, 11, 19, 23, 25, 30), qui recueille l'eau et la dirige vers l'ouverture d'évacuation (6, 14, 16, 27, 31, 32) du bac de douche (1, 10, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 29), est réalisée par usinage par enlèvement de matière dans un bloc de matériau présentant au moins une face plane et parallèle. Selon l'invention, la surface d'écoulement (4, 11, 19, 23, 25, 30) est réalisée en une seule opération au moyen d'un procédé d'usinage en trois dimensions commandé par programme, sachant que la région de bord (5, 26) du bac de douche (1, 15, 18, 24, 28, 29), au moins dans une zone d'accès et de sortie, se raccorde continûment à la surface d'écoulement (4, 19, 25, 30). Grâce à ce procédé d'usinage très convivial, la surface du fond de la douche peut être réalisée en une seule opération ininterrompue avec une forme variable et sans aucun décrochement. On peut ainsi également réaliser de façon relativement économique des bacs de douches fabriqués sur commande, dans toute forme souhaitée par le client et sans arêtes risquant de faire déraper.
