Definitions
- the invention relates to a drain with a flexible layer arrangement and a mounting plate.
- Flexible layers are applied in many variants.
- One of the applications is to bridge two rigid objects which can displace relative to each other. This displacement can be in the order of several centimetres or more, but also less, as occurs as a result of expansion and contraction of materials.
- the flexible layer is often used to seal the space created by the displacement. It is therefore important that the flexible layer is properly secured to both objects.
- a flexible layer is used to retain a water seal between the drain and the floor, despite the movement which may occur between the drain and the floor as a result of the drain heating and cooling.
- a flange on which the flexible layer can be arranged is provided in some cases.
- This flange however usually protrudes to a position under the finishing layer of the floor, such as for instance a tile layer.
- the setting of tiles is however impeded by this flange, since the usual tapping-in of the tiles is hindered by the flange. Efforts are therefore made in such cases to keep the flange as small as possible, which in turn has an adverse effect on the fixing of the flexible layer.
- DE-A1-2612684 describes a drain (1) with a flexible layer arrangement (6).
- the flexible layer can for instance be fixed to two sides of a flange, thereby doubling the fixing surface.
- the flexible layer is a sealing membrane.
- a sealing membrane is frequently used in the field of sanitary fittings, wherein the sealing membrane forms a watertight layer under a layer of tiles arranged on the sealing membrane.
- the strip is preferably formed integrally with the flexible layer.
- the flexible layer is provided with an adhesive layer for fixing to for instance the substrate.
- the flexible layer is preferably manufactured provided with a cover foil, which is removed when the flexible layer is arranged on for instance the substrate or for instance when the strip is fixed to the flexible layer.
- the flexible layer can be used to bridge transitions between rigid objects, such as for instance an expansion joint.
- the flexible layer arrangement is particularly advantageous in a drain because a drain has relatively little fixing surface while a good water seal is nevertheless desired.
- the width can be halved by a flexible layer arrangement.
- At least two adjacent upright walls lie at an angle to each other and a first flexible layer arrangement is arranged on the horizontal flange arranged on the free edge of the first upright wall, and a second flexible layer arrangement is arranged on the horizontal flange arranged on the free edge of the second upright wall, this second flexible layer arrangement partially overlapping the first flexible layer arrangement, such that an edge of the first flexible layer arrangement is received between the edge and the free edge of the strip of flexible material of the second flexible layer arrangement.
- the legs of the Y-shaped structure are preferably arranged parallel to each other on a fixing surface.
- An example hereof is when the legs of the Y-shaped structure are arranged on either side of a flange.
- the flexible cloth hereby doubles in fixing surface and the forces exerted on the flexible cloth can be distributed over both legs.
- a method not according to the invention for arranging a flexible cloth on a drain comprising a tray with a bottom surface and upright walls arranged along the periphery of the bottom surface, wherein a horizontal flange is arranged on at least one of the walls, the method comprising the steps of:
- a tray such as an elongate shower drain
- a flexible cloth can provide for a reliable seal between a tray and a surrounding floor.
- An embodiment of the method not according to the invention comprises the step of cutting out the part of the sheet of flexible cloth between the upright walls of the tray.
- This cutting out can for instance take place using a suitable knife, a laser or a water jet.
- the horizontal flange is arranged on the edge of an upright wall.
- the horizontal flange is arranged on the upright wall at a distance from the edge.
- the remaining part of the sheet of flexible cloth sinks downward onto the horizontal flange. It is recommended here to cut from the centre toward the outer ends of the tray, whereby the remaining part comes to lie on the horizontal flange without creases.
- Figure 1 shows a view in longitudinal section of a flexible layer arrangement having a flexible layer 1 and a strip 3 of flexible material.
- This flexible layer 1 has a free end and an edge 2.
- the strip 3 of flexible material is arranged parallel to this edge 2.
- Strip 3 is arranged on flexible layer 1 at a distance from edge 2 via contact surface 4.
- the strip 3 itself also has a free edge 5 which extends substantially as far as edge 2 of flexible layer 1.
- a structure of Y-shaped cross-section is hereby obtained as shown in figure 1 .
- FIG. 2 shows a drain 10 not according to the invention.
- This drain 10 has a tray consisting of a bottom surface 11 and upright walls 12.
- a grating 13 is placed in tray 11, 12.
- FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of a second embodiment 15 of a drain not according to the invention.
- This drain has an elongate tray consisting of a bottom surface 16, upright walls 17 and flanges 18 arranged on the free edges of upright walls 17.
- a flexible layer 19 is arranged on the corresponding flange 18 on the short sides of tray 16, 17, 18.
- a flexible layer 1 according to the invention is arranged on the long sides of tray 16, 17, 18.
- flanges 18 are bent so that a part is vertical, and when the drain is arranged against at least two walls, only a single flexible layer of Y-shaped construction can be arranged on the bent parts, and the flexible layer can thus be used for two or more sides without necessarily overlapping.
- FIG. 5 shows a preferred embodiment of flexible layer 30 not according to the invention.
- the flexible layer has an adhesive layer 31 on one side.
- a factory-supplied cover foil 32, 33, 34 is arranged on this adhesive layer 31.
- the third part 34 of the cover foil can be removed for fixing of flexible layer 30 onto for instance a substrate.
- FIG. 6 shows an embodiment of a method not according to the invention for manufacturing a drain according to the invention.
- Drain 40 has a bottom surface 41 with upright walls 42 and a horizontal flange 43 on all sides of these walls.
- a flexible layer 44 is placed on a table 45.
- This table is provided with a perforated surface 46. Air is extracted via these perforations so that flexible layer 44 is suctioned fixedly onto surface 46 and whereby flexible layer 44 is held flat and without folds.
- a drain 41, 42, 43 is then placed in opening 47, after which a strip 48 is arranged over flange 43. This whole is finally pressed down by a cover 49. Using this cover 49 sufficient pressure can for instance be exerted on the assembly of flexible layer 44, drain 41, 42, 43 and strip 48. When an adhesive is used the fixing is hereby improved, or the two layers 44 and 48 can otherwise be fused by means of heating.
- FIG. 7 shows a fourth embodiment 50 of the drain according to the invention.
- Drain 50 has a bottom surface 51, upright walls 52 and horizontal flanges 53.
- a mounting plate or fixing plate 54 is arranged on one of the horizontal flanges 53 via a flexible layer arrangement 55.
- this fixing plate 54 and the hole 56 arranged therein the drain 50 can be secured firmly to a surrounding construction. Variations resulting from for instance expansion can be compensated by using flexible layer arrangement 55. It is thus usual to arrange an insulating plate under the concrete floor in which drain 50 is arranged. Gas can sometimes still be released from such insulating plates, whereby the thickness of the plate varies and the concrete floor lying thereon sinks downward.
- the Y-shaped construction further ensures that the risk of the flexible layer being torn away from flange 53 is reduced.
- the flexible transition between horizontal flange 53 and fixing plate 54 moreover provides for a sound reduction.
- the vibrations resulting for instance from water falling onto drain 50 cannot be transmitted to fixing plate 54. Because the vibrations remain limited to drain 50 itself, the associated sound production will be lower.
- FIG. 8 shows a fifth embodiment 60 of a drain according to the invention.
- a mounting strip 61 is first attached to the substrate via a screw 62.
- Mounting strip 61 has a groove 63 into which the end of a mounting plate or second mounting strip 64 protrudes.
- Mounting strip 64 is fastened to for instance a wall by means of a second screw 65.
- a drain 67 is fixed to second mounting strip 64 via a flexible layer arrangement 66.
- FIG. 9 shows a cross-sectional view of a drain 70 not according to the invention.
- This drain 70 has a bottom surface 71 and upright walls 72.
- An outward protruding flange 73 is arranged on one upright wall 72.
- An inward protruding flange 74 is arranged on the other upright wall 72, this flange 74 having a downward hanging edge 75.
- a flexible layer arrangement 76 is arranged at the transition between upright wall 72 and inward protruding flange 74.
- Such an embodiment of drain 70 is suitable for arrangement in a flat floor as well as against a wall.
- flexible layer 76 When mounted in a flat floor, flexible layer 76 is arranged horizontally underneath a tile layer.
- the tile layer of the wall is placed on inward protruding flange 74 and flexible layer 76 extends behind the tile layer.

- This embodiment 80 also has a bottom surface 81, upright walls 82 and horizontal flanges 83.
- a flexible layer arrangement 84 is arranged on one of the horizontal flanges 83.
- a mounting plate 85 is arranged on the free end of flexible layer arrangement 84. Owing to the flexible connection by means of layer arrangement 84 the mounting plate 85 can be positioned both horizontally and vertically, as shown respectively in figure 10 and figure 11 .

Description
- The invention relates to a drain with a flexible layer arrangement and a mounting plate.
- Flexible layers are applied in many variants. One of the applications is to bridge two rigid objects which can displace relative to each other. This displacement can be in the order of several centimetres or more, but also less, as occurs as a result of expansion and contraction of materials.
- In such cases the flexible layer is often used to seal the space created by the displacement. It is therefore important that the flexible layer is properly secured to both objects.
- In the case of drains, such as a shower drain, a flexible layer is used to retain a water seal between the drain and the floor, despite the movement which may occur between the drain and the floor as a result of the drain heating and cooling.
- The forces exerted on such a flexible layer can be great, whereby it is essential for the layer to be properly fixed to both objects. Particularly in the case of drains a good fixing to the drain itself is not easy. One of the causes is that the fixing surface on the drain is limited. In the case of for instance elongate shower drains the height of the side wall, and thereby the fixing surface, can be limited to less than 2 centimetres.
- Provided in some cases is a flange on which the flexible layer can be arranged. This flange however usually protrudes to a position under the finishing layer of the floor, such as for instance a tile layer. The setting of tiles is however impeded by this flange, since the usual tapping-in of the tiles is hindered by the flange. Efforts are therefore made in such cases to keep the flange as small as possible, which in turn has an adverse effect on the fixing of the flexible layer.
-
DE-A1-2612684 describes a drain (1) with a flexible layer arrangement (6). - It is an object of the invention to alleviate or even obviate the above stated drawbacks.
- This object is achieved with a flexible layer according to
claim 1. - With this Y-shaped structure the flexible layer can for instance be fixed to two sides of a flange, thereby doubling the fixing surface.
- In a preferred embodiment of the invention the flexible layer is a sealing membrane. A sealing membrane is frequently used in the field of sanitary fittings, wherein the sealing membrane forms a watertight layer under a layer of tiles arranged on the sealing membrane.
- The strip is preferably formed integrally with the flexible layer.
- In yet another embodiment of the invention the flexible layer is provided with an adhesive layer for fixing to for instance the substrate. The flexible layer is preferably manufactured provided with a cover foil, which is removed when the flexible layer is arranged on for instance the substrate or for instance when the strip is fixed to the flexible layer.
- In yet another embodiment of the invention the cover foil is arranged on the adhesive layer in parts so that a desired part of the adhesive layer can be exposed. It is hereby possible to remove a first part of the cover foil in order to arrange the flexible layer on a flange of for instance a drain, a second part of the cover foil can then be removed in order to arrange the strip on the flexible layer and, finally, a third part of the cover foil can for instance be removed in order to arrange the whole of drain, flexible layer and strip on the substrate.
- The flexible layer can be used to bridge transitions between rigid objects, such as for instance an expansion joint.
- The flexible layer arrangement is particularly advantageous in a drain because a drain has relatively little fixing surface while a good water seal is nevertheless desired.
- In a preferred embodiment of the drain according to the invention the edge of the flexible layer is arranged on one side of the flange, and the free edge of the strip of flexible material is arranged on the other opposite side of the flange.
- In the case of a drain with a flange the width can be halved by a flexible layer arrangement.
- In another preferred embodiment of the drain according to the invention at least two adjacent upright walls lie at an angle to each other and a first flexible layer arrangement is arranged on the horizontal flange arranged on the free edge of the first upright wall, and a second flexible layer arrangement is arranged on the horizontal flange arranged on the free edge of the second upright wall, this second flexible layer arrangement partially overlapping the first flexible layer arrangement, such that an edge of the first flexible layer arrangement is received between the edge and the free edge of the strip of flexible material of the second flexible layer arrangement.
- In the case of a drain it is usual to provide a flexible cloth around the drain for good sealing. This cloth can be cut as one whole, although it is recommended to arrange four strips around the drain. This does however have the result that the strips overlap each other. With a flexible layer arrangement an adjacent strip can be received in the Y-shaped structure, thereby creating a reliable and strong connection.
- The legs of the Y-shaped structure are preferably arranged parallel to each other on a fixing surface. An example hereof is when the legs of the Y-shaped structure are arranged on either side of a flange. The flexible cloth hereby doubles in fixing surface and the forces exerted on the flexible cloth can be distributed over both legs.
- A method not according to the invention is described for arranging a flexible cloth on a drain comprising a tray with a bottom surface and upright walls arranged along the periphery of the bottom surface, wherein a horizontal flange is arranged on at least one of the walls, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a sheet of flexible cloth which is provided with an adhesive layer;
- placing the tray with the edges of the upright walls on the adhesive layer; and
- providing a strip of flexible cloth;
- arranging the strip of flexible cloth over the horizontal flange and a part of the sheet of flexible cloth such that a structure of Y-shaped cross-section is obtained.
- Using this method a tray, such as an elongate shower drain, can be provided in efficient manner with a flexible cloth. This cloth can provide for a reliable seal between a tray and a surrounding floor.
- An embodiment of the method not according to the invention comprises the step of cutting out the part of the sheet of flexible cloth between the upright walls of the tray.
- This cutting out can for instance take place using a suitable knife, a laser or a water jet.
- In another embodiment of the method not according to the invention the horizontal flange is arranged on the edge of an upright wall.
- In another embodiment of the method not according to the invention the horizontal flange is arranged on the upright wall at a distance from the edge. When the part is cut out, the remaining part of the sheet of flexible cloth sinks downward onto the horizontal flange. It is recommended here to cut from the centre toward the outer ends of the tray, whereby the remaining part comes to lie on the horizontal flange without creases.

flexible layer 1 according tofigure 1 is also arranged ontray Edge 2 offlexible layer 1 is here arranged onupright wall 12, while thefree edge 5 ofstrip 3 is arranged onbottom surface 11. A firm fixing offlexible layer 1 ontray -
Figure 3 shows a perspective view of asecond embodiment 15 of a drain not according to the invention. This drain has an elongate tray consisting of abottom surface 16,upright walls 17 andflanges 18 arranged on the free edges ofupright walls 17. - A
flexible layer 19 is arranged on the correspondingflange 18 on the short sides oftray flexible layer 1 according to the invention is arranged on the long sides oftray - As will be apparent from
figures 3 and 4 ,flexible layers 1 overlapflexible layers 19.Flexible layer 19 is here received together withflange 18 betweenfree edge 2 andfree edge 5 ofstrip 3. - A good sealing can hereby be obtained with a strip-like flexible layer in four parts around a drain.
- In the case flanges 18 are bent so that a part is vertical, and when the drain is arranged against at least two walls, only a single flexible layer of Y-shaped construction can be arranged on the bent parts, and the flexible layer can thus be used for two or more sides without necessarily overlapping.
-
Figure 5 shows a preferred embodiment offlexible layer 30 not according to the invention. The flexible layer has anadhesive layer 31 on one side. A factory-suppliedcover foil adhesive layer 31. - When
flexible layer 30 is now arranged on aflange 35, thepart 32 of the cover foil is first removed. A part ofadhesive layer 31 is hereby exposed so thatflange 35 can be arranged thereon. - Once
flexible layer 30 has been arranged onflange 35, astrip 36 is arranged over bothflange 35 andflexible layer 30. Asecond part 33 ofcover foil 30 is here then removed so thatstrip 36 can adhere to this part ofadhesive layer 31. - Finally, the
third part 34 of the cover foil can be removed for fixing offlexible layer 30 onto for instance a substrate. -
Figure 6 shows an embodiment of a method not according to the invention for manufacturing a drain according to the invention. Drain 40 has abottom surface 41 withupright walls 42 and ahorizontal flange 43 on all sides of these walls. - According to the method a
flexible layer 44 is placed on a table 45. This table is provided with aperforated surface 46. Air is extracted via these perforations so thatflexible layer 44 is suctioned fixedly ontosurface 46 and wherebyflexible layer 44 is held flat and without folds. - A
drain strip 48 is arranged overflange 43. This whole is finally pressed down by acover 49. Using thiscover 49 sufficient pressure can for instance be exerted on the assembly offlexible layer 44,drain strip 48. When an adhesive is used the fixing is hereby improved, or the twolayers -
Figure 7 shows afourth embodiment 50 of the drain according to the invention.Drain 50 has abottom surface 51,upright walls 52 andhorizontal flanges 53. A mounting plate or fixingplate 54 is arranged on one of thehorizontal flanges 53 via aflexible layer arrangement 55. Using this fixingplate 54 and thehole 56 arranged therein thedrain 50 can be secured firmly to a surrounding construction. Variations resulting from for instance expansion can be compensated by usingflexible layer arrangement 55. It is thus usual to arrange an insulating plate under the concrete floor in which drain 50 is arranged. Gas can sometimes still be released from such insulating plates, whereby the thickness of the plate varies and the concrete floor lying thereon sinks downward. - When fixing
plate 54 is arranged vertically against a wall and use is made of an insulating plate which becomes thinner in the course of time, the Y-shaped construction further ensures that the risk of the flexible layer being torn away fromflange 53 is reduced. - The flexible transition between
horizontal flange 53 and fixingplate 54 moreover provides for a sound reduction. The vibrations resulting for instance from water falling ontodrain 50 cannot be transmitted to fixingplate 54. Because the vibrations remain limited to drain 50 itself, the associated sound production will be lower. -
Figure 8 shows afifth embodiment 60 of a drain according to the invention. In this drain 60 a mountingstrip 61 is first attached to the substrate via ascrew 62. Mountingstrip 61 has agroove 63 into which the end of a mounting plate or second mountingstrip 64 protrudes. Mountingstrip 64 is fastened to for instance a wall by means of asecond screw 65. - A
drain 67 is fixed to second mountingstrip 64 via aflexible layer arrangement 66. -
Figure 9 shows a cross-sectional view of adrain 70 not according to the invention. Thisdrain 70 has abottom surface 71 andupright walls 72. An outward protrudingflange 73 is arranged on oneupright wall 72. An inward protrudingflange 74 is arranged on the otherupright wall 72, thisflange 74 having a downward hangingedge 75. - A
flexible layer arrangement 76 is arranged at the transition betweenupright wall 72 and inward protrudingflange 74. Such an embodiment ofdrain 70 is suitable for arrangement in a flat floor as well as against a wall. When mounted in a flat floor,flexible layer 76 is arranged horizontally underneath a tile layer. When mounted against the wall, the tile layer of the wall is placed on inward protrudingflange 74 andflexible layer 76 extends behind the tile layer. -
Figures 10 and 11 show aseventh embodiment 80 of a drain according to the invention. Thisembodiment 80 also has abottom surface 81,upright walls 82 andhorizontal flanges 83. Aflexible layer arrangement 84 is arranged on one of thehorizontal flanges 83. A mountingplate 85 is arranged on the free end offlexible layer arrangement 84. Owing to the flexible connection by means oflayer arrangement 84 the mountingplate 85 can be positioned both horizontally and vertically, as shown respectively infigure 10 and figure 11 . For use in vertical position afiller block 86 can be used which is fixed to mountingplate 85 via abolt 87 and supports againstside wall 82 andbottom surface 81. - A sound reduction also takes place in this construction due to the
flexible layer arrangement 84 betweenhorizontal flange 83 and mountingplate 85. The use of the flexible layer arrangement around a flange in any case ensures that vibrations are transmitted less well to the concrete layer in which the drain is arranged. An additional insulating layer can optionally be arranged on the flanges. -
Figures 12A-12C show a first embodiment of the method not according to the invention. According to this method, aroll 90 of flexible cloth is provided. Thisroll 90 is partially unrolled so that asheet 91 of the flexible cloth is provided on a flat substrate. -
Flexible cloth 91 is provided with a central adhesive layer zone 101 which is protected on the roll by a foil (not shown). Present on either side of the central adhesive layer zone 101 arezones 102 which are provided with a web layer for good adhesion to for instance a cement layer. After removal of this foil ashower drain 92 is placed withhorizontal flanges 93 on the adhesive layer ofsheet 91. - A
narrower roll 94 is then provided. A strip offlexible cloth 95 is unrolled from thisnarrower roll 94. This strip offlexible cloth 95 is also provided with an adhesive layer. Thisstrip 95 is cut to a suitable length andpieces sheet 91 overlapping withflanges 93 ofshower tray 92, whereby a structure of Y-shaped cross-section is obtained. - Finally, the whole of
shower tray 92,flexible sheet 91 and strips 96, 97, 98, 99 is turned over, after whichcentral piece 100 is cut out of the sheet offlexible cloth 91. This cutting out ofcentral piece 100 can take place in the factory, but can also be done on site. The piece then provides protection forshower drain 92 and is only cut out onceshower drain 92 has been fully installed. -
Figures 13A-13C show a second embodiment of the method not according to the invention. This method is particularly suitable for ashower drain 110, whereinflanges 111 are arranged at a distance from the edges ofside walls 112. - In this method the sheet of
flexible cloth 113 is adhered with the adhesive layer to the upper edge ofside walls 112. The central part is then cut out offlexible cloth 113 in longitudinal direction from the centre using aknife 114. The sheet offlexible cloth 113 can hereby sink downward onto horizontal flanges 111 (seefigure 13B ). - Finally, strips 115, 116 cut to size are adhered overlapping with
flanges 111 to the sheet offlexible cloth 113 so that a Y-shaped structure is formed aroundflanges 111.
