Definitions
- the present invention relates to a use of a shower shelf for installation on two vertical walls, extending essentially perpendicular to each other, jointly forming a corner, clad with tiles separated from each other by horizontal joints, with a flat, one-piece plate element with an underside, a shelf forming upper side, which defines a plate thickness together with the lower side, and at least three end faces connecting the lower side of the plate and the upper side of the plate, two of which extend perpendicular to one another.
- Such shower trays which are used in the shower as a tray for shower gel, shampoo or the like, are known in various configurations in the prior art. They are usually made of bent sheet metal from a rustproof material and have a flat, one-piece plate element with a bottom, a top forming the storage surface and at least three end faces, of which at least two end faces extend perpendicular to each other.
- To attach such shower trays to tiles arranged in the corner of the wall it is known to design the two end faces extending perpendicularly to one another as an upward or downwardly curved flange which defines a tile contact surface.
- the tile contact surfaces of the flanges can then be connected to the tiles using an adhesive, in particular an adhesive based on silicone.
- the fastening can also be carried out using screws, which are passed through openings provided in the flanges and pegged into the wall.
- the latter variant is, however, a disadvantage if a surface seal is provided between the wall and the tiles, as this is damaged by the screws.
- Another option is to use the To provide flanges with a large number of openings, as is the case, for example, in the DE 10 2012 015 574 A1 is described.
- the shower shelf is positioned between tiles arranged one above the other in such a way that the plate element of the shower shelf is arranged in the area of the horizontal joints separating the tiles from one another.
- This type of shower shelf attachment has the major advantage that it is very stable.
- the shower shelf can only be attached to walls that have already been tiled by removing the tiles above and below the position at which the shower shelf is to be attached. On the one hand, this is associated with a high level of effort. On the other hand, the tiles can be easily damaged when they are removed, so that a replacement must be available.
- the present invention proposes using a shower shelf according to claim 1.
- a shower shelf according to claim 1 it is proposed to replace the aforementioned flanges extending perpendicular to the plate element with outwardly projecting fastening projections which do not protrude beyond the planes spanned by the bottom and the top of the plate element.
- Fastening projections of this type are advantageous over the known flanges in that only little material is required to form the fastening projections.
- the plate thickness can be chosen freely, because no bending processing is required for the production of the shower shelf according to the invention. Accordingly, the shower shelf according to the invention can be given a very high quality design through a comparatively large plate thickness.
- the shower shelf according to the invention can be installed both as part of the laying of tiles and subsequently.
- the fastening projections only have to be pressed into the not yet hardened grout.
- the shower shelf is then securely attached to the walls.
- only the grout in the installation area of the shower shelf has to be removed. This can then be replaced by new grout or by a silicone compound or the like in order to then insert and fasten the projections of the shower shelf.
- the height of the fastening projections is preferably in the range from 0.7 to 2.5 mm and is thus selected such that the fastening projections can be used in conventional joint widths.
- the height of the projections is less than the plate thickness, the plate thickness preferably being in the range from 3 to 6 mm.
- a plate thickness in the mentioned plate thickness range leads to a very high quality appearance of the shower shelf according to the invention.
- a plurality of fastening projections are preferably provided on at least one end face, as a result of which a better hold of the shower shelf is achieved in the area of a joint.
- the fastening projections provided on one end face are advantageously arranged offset to one another in the direction of the panel thickness, that when the fastening projections are inserted into tiles arranged on the walls, horizontally extending joints that separate from one another set a predetermined slope of the top of the plate element to the horizontal. Accordingly, water that collects on the top of the plate element when the shower shelf is installed can run off.
- the two end faces extending perpendicular to one another are connected to one another via a further end face, the length of which is at least 20 mm. Thanks to this additional face, an opening is created between the tiles and the shower shelf in the corner area. On the one hand, water can flow off through this opening. On the other hand, such an opening makes it easier to clean tiles and the shower shelf in the corner area.
- the plate element is advantageously made of stainless steel or aluminum. For example, it can be cut out of a corresponding metal plate and then reworked using material-removing processes.
- the present invention proposes to use a shower shelf according to the invention in such a way that all fastening projections of the plate element are used in tiles that separate horizontally extending joints that meet at right angles.
- FIG. 1 shows a shower tray 1 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
- the shower shelf 1 comprises a plate element 2 with an underside 3, an upper side 4 which forms a storage surface and which, together with the underside, defines a plate thickness S, and in the present case four end faces 5, 6, 7 and 8 connecting the plate upper side 2 and the plate underside 3, the end faces 5 and 6 extending perpendicular to one another.
- the plate element 2 is made in one piece from an aluminum or stainless steel plate.
- the plate thickness S is preferably in the range from 3 to 6 mm. In the present case, it is constant and thus corresponds to the maximum height H max of the shower shelf 1.
- the plate element 2 is provided with several through openings 9 extending from the bottom 3 to the top 4, which in the present case each have the shape of a circular arc segment for optical reasons. Alternatively, however, the through openings 9 can also have any other shape.
- the plate element 2 has fastening projections 10 on the two mutually perpendicular end faces 5 and 6, which extend outward and are arranged in the area of the planes spanned by the lower side 3 and the upper side 4, i.e. do not protrude upwards or downwards over them.
- the fastening projections 10 have a depth t in the range from 3 to 10 mm, preferably between 4 and 8 mm, and a height h in the range from 0.7 to 2.5 mm and are essentially cuboid.
- two fastening projections 10 are provided on the end face 5, which are each arranged in the end regions of the end face 5.
- the end face 6 only has a single fastening protrusion 10, which is arranged in the end region of the end face 6 adjacent to the end face 7.
- the number of fastening projections 10 as well as their length and / or shape can vary as required.
- the height h of the fastening protrusions 10 is less than the plate thickness S.
- the fastening protrusions 10 which are arranged adjacent to one another on the end face 5 and on the end face 6, are arranged flush with the underside 3 of the plate element 2, while the remaining fastening protrusions 10 are adjacent to the end face 8 is flush with the top 4 of the plate element 2. Thanks to this offset arrangement of the fastening projections 10 in the direction of the plate thickness S, a predetermined slope of the top 4 of the plate element 2 to the horizontal is set during the assembly of the shower tray 1, which will be discussed again below.
- the two end faces 5 and 6 extending perpendicular to each other can be connected to one another via a further end face 11, whose length I is preferably at least 20 mm. This further end face 11 is in Figure 1 represented by a dashed line.
- the shower shelf 1 To install the shower shelf 1 on two vertical walls 15 and 16, which extend essentially perpendicular to one another, jointly form a corner 12 and are clad with tiles 14 separated from one another by horizontal and vertical joints 13, the tiles 14 are attached in a first step in a known manner the walls 15 and 16 attached, for example using a thin bed mortar. Between the walls 15 and 16 and the tiles 14, a surface seal, not shown here, should be installed beforehand. In a further step, the joints 13 are grouted with a grout. Immediately after the grouting, the fastening projections 10 of the shower tray 1 are pressed into a horizontal joint 13 extending over the corner area at the desired height. When the grout hardens, the shower shelf is securely attached to the walls 15 and 16.
- a predetermined slope of the upper side 4 of the plate element 2 to the horizontal is automatically set during installation if, when positioning the shower tray 1, all the fastening projections 10 either against the upper edges of the lower tiles 14 or pressed against lower edges of the upper tiles 14. If the end faces 5 and 6 are not connected to one another by the further end face 11, a slope that slopes down from the corner 12 to the shower is recommended. If, on the other hand, an opening 17 is formed between the shower shelf 1 and the walls 15 and 16 through the further end face 11, then the slope can also be chosen reversed downwards in the direction of the corner 12.
- the Figures 5 to 7 show a shower shelf 1 according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
- the plate element 2 has a different shape and, as a result, five end faces 5, 6, 7, 8 and 18.
- the end faces 5 and 6 extend perpendicular to one another and are each provided with two fastening projections 10, which are all arranged on a uniform level in the direction of the panel thickness S.
- a gradient with respect to the horizontal is not automatically established.
- the number and shape of the through openings 9 are selected differently.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Verwendung einer Duschablage zur Installation an zwei vertikalen, sich im Wesentlichen senkrecht zueinander erstreckenden, gemeinsam eine Ecke bildenden, mit durch horizontale Fugen voneinander getrennten Fliesen verkleideten Wänden, mit einem flächigen, einteilig ausgebildeten Plattenelement mit einer Unterseite, einer eine Ablagefläche bildenden Oberseite, die gemeinsam mit der Unterseite eine Plattenstärke definiert, und zumindest drei die Plattenunterseite und die Plattenoberseite miteinander verbindenden Stirnseiten, von denen sich zwei senkrecht zueinander erstrecken.The present invention relates to a use of a shower shelf for installation on two vertical walls, extending essentially perpendicular to each other, jointly forming a corner, clad with tiles separated from each other by horizontal joints, with a flat, one-piece plate element with an underside, a shelf forming upper side, which defines a plate thickness together with the lower side, and at least three end faces connecting the lower side of the plate and the upper side of the plate, two of which extend perpendicular to one another.
Derartige Duschablagen, die in der Dusche als Ablage für Duschgel, Shampoo oder dergleichen eingesetzt werden, sind im Stand der Technik in unterschiedlichen Ausgestaltungen bekannt. Sie sind normalerweise aus gebogenem Blech aus einem rostfreien Material hergestellt und weisen ein flächiges, einteilig ausgebildetes Plattenelement mit einer Unterseite, einer die Ablagefläche bildenden Oberseite und zumindest drei Stirnseiten auf, von denen sich zumindest zwei Stirnseiten senkrecht zueinander erstrecken. Zur Befestigung solcher Duschablagen an im Wandeckbereich angeordneten Fliesen ist es bekannt, die beiden sich senkrecht zueinander erstreckenden Stirnseiten jeweils als auf- oder abwärts gebogenen Flansch auszubilden, der eine Fliesenanlagefläche definiert. Die Fliesenanlageflächen der Flansche können dann unter Verwendung eines Klebstoffes, insbesondere eines auf Silikon basierenden Klebstoffes mit den Fliesen verbunden werden. Alternativ kann die Befestigung auch unter Verwendung von Schrauben erfolgen, die durch in den Flanschen vorgesehene Durchgangsöffnungen geführt und in der Wand verdübelt werden. Letztere Variante ist allerdings dann von Nachteil, wenn zwischen der Wand und den Fliesen eine Flächenabdichtung vorgesehen ist, da diese durch die Schrauben beschädigt wird. Eine weitere Möglichkeit besteht darin, die Flansche mit einer Vielzahl von Durchbrechungen zu versehen, wie es beispielsweise in der
Weitere Ablagen sind in den Druckschriften
Ausgehend von diesem Stand der Technik ist es eine Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Duschablage mit alternativem Aufbau zu schaffen.Based on this prior art, it is an object of the present invention to create a shower shelf with an alternative structure.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die vorliegende Erfindung vor, eine Duschablage nach Anspruch 1 zu verwenden. Mit anderen Worten wird vorgeschlagen, die zuvor genannten, sich senkrecht zum Plattenelement erstreckenden Flansche durch auswärts vorstehende Befestigungsvorsprünge zu ersetzen, die nicht über die durch die Unterseite und die Oberseite des Plattenelementes aufgespannten Ebenen vorstehen. Derartige Befestigungsvorsprünge sind gegenüber den bekannten Flanschen zum einen dahingehend von Vorteil, dass zur Ausbildung der Befestigungsvorsprünge nur wenig Material benötigt wird. Zum anderen kann die Plattenstärke frei gewählt werden, da für die Herstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Duschablage keine Biegebearbeitung erforderlich ist. Entsprechend kann der erfindungsgemäßen Duschablage ein sehr hochwertiges Design durch eine vergleichsweise große Plattenstärke verliehen werden. Noch ein weiterer Vorteil besteht darin, dass sich die erfindungsgemäße Duschablage sowohl im Rahmen der Fliesenverlegung als auch nachträglich installieren lässt. Im ersteren Fall müssen die Befestigungsvorsprünge lediglich in den noch nicht erhärteten Fugenmörtel eingedrückt werden. Nach dem Erhärten des Fugenmörtels ist die Duschablage dann sicher an den Wänden gehalten. Für eine nachträgliche Installation muss lediglich der Fugenmörtel im Montagebereich der Duschablage entfernt werden. Dieser kann dann durch neuen Fugenmörtel oder aber auch durch eine Silikonmasse oder dergleichen ersetzt werden, um im Anschluss die Vorsprünge der Duschablage einzusetzen und zu befestigen.To solve this problem, the present invention proposes using a shower shelf according to
Die Höhe der Befestigungsvorsprünge liegt bevorzugt im Bereich von 0,7 bis 2,5 mm und ist damit derart gewählt, dass die Befestigungsvorsprünge in herkömmliche Fugenbreiten eingesetzt werden können.The height of the fastening projections is preferably in the range from 0.7 to 2.5 mm and is thus selected such that the fastening projections can be used in conventional joint widths.
Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Höhe der Vorsprünge geringer als die Plattenstärke, wobei die Plattenstärke bevorzugt im Bereich von 3 bis 6 mm liegt. Eine Plattenstärke im genannten Plattenstärkenbereich führt zu einem sehr hochwertigen Erscheinungsbild der erfindungsgemäßen Duschablage.According to one embodiment of the present invention, the height of the projections is less than the plate thickness, the plate thickness preferably being in the range from 3 to 6 mm. A plate thickness in the mentioned plate thickness range leads to a very high quality appearance of the shower shelf according to the invention.
Bevorzugt sind an zumindest einer Stirnseite mehrere Befestigungsvorsprünge vorgesehen, wodurch ein besserer Halt der Duschablage im Bereich einer Fuge erzielt wird.A plurality of fastening projections are preferably provided on at least one end face, as a result of which a better hold of the shower shelf is achieved in the area of a joint.
Vorteilhaft sind die jeweils an einer Stirnseite vorgesehenen Befestigungsvorsprünge in Richtung der Plattenstärke derart versetzt zueinander angeordnet, dass sich beim Einsetzen der Befestigungsvorsprünge in an den Wänden angeordnete Fliesen voneinander trennende, sich horizontal erstreckende Fugen ein vorbestimmtes Gefälle der Oberseite des Plattenelementes zur Horizontalen einstellt. Entsprechend kann sich auf der Oberseite des Plattenelementes im montierten Zustand der Duschablage ansammelndes Wasser ablaufen.The fastening projections provided on one end face are advantageously arranged offset to one another in the direction of the panel thickness, that when the fastening projections are inserted into tiles arranged on the walls, horizontally extending joints that separate from one another set a predetermined slope of the top of the plate element to the horizontal. Accordingly, water that collects on the top of the plate element when the shower shelf is installed can run off.
Gemäß einer Ausgestaltung der vorliegenden Erfindung sind die zwei sich senkrecht zueinander erstreckenden Stirnseiten über eine weitere Stirnseite miteinander verbunden, deren Länge zumindest 20 mm beträgt. Dank dieser weiteren Stirnseite wird zwischen den Fliesen und der Duschablage im Eckbereich eine Öffnung erzeugt. Durch diese Öffnung kann zum einen Wasser abfließen. Zum anderen erleichtert eine solche Öffnung das Reinigen von Fliesen und Duschablage im Eckbereich.According to one embodiment of the present invention, the two end faces extending perpendicular to one another are connected to one another via a further end face, the length of which is at least 20 mm. Thanks to this additional face, an opening is created between the tiles and the shower shelf in the corner area. On the one hand, water can flow off through this opening. On the other hand, such an opening makes it easier to clean tiles and the shower shelf in the corner area.
Vorteilhaft ist das Plattenelement aus Edelstahl oder aus Aluminium hergestellt. Beispielsweise kann es aus einer entsprechenden Metallplatte ausgeschnitten und anschließend durch materialabtragende Verfahren nachbearbeitet werden.The plate element is advantageously made of stainless steel or aluminum. For example, it can be cut out of a corresponding metal plate and then reworked using material-removing processes.
Ferner schlägt die vorliegende Erfindung vor, eine erfindungsgemäße Duschablage derart zu verwenden, dass sämtliche Befestigungsvorsprünge des Plattenelementes in Fliesen voneinander trennende, sich horizontal erstreckende Fugen eingesetzt werden, die im rechten Winkel aufeinander treffen.Furthermore, the present invention proposes to use a shower shelf according to the invention in such a way that all fastening projections of the plate element are used in tiles that separate horizontally extending joints that meet at right angles.

Zur Installation der Duschablage 1 an zwei vertikalen, sich im Wesentlichen senkrecht zueinander erstreckenden, gemeinsam eine Ecke 12 bildenden, mit durch horizontale und vertikale Fugen 13 voneinander getrennten Fliesen 14 verkleideten Wänden 15 und 16 werden die Fliesen 14 in einem ersten Schritt in bekannter Weise an den Wänden 15 und 16 befestigt, beispielsweise unter Einsatz eines Dünnbettmörtels. Zwischen den Wänden 15 und 16 und den Fliesen 14 sollte vorab eine vorliegend nicht dargestellte Flächenabdichtung installiert werden. In einem weiteren Schritt werden die Fugen 13 mit einem Fugenmörtel verfugt. Unmittelbar nach dem Verfugen werden die Befestigungsvorsprünge 10 der Duschablage 1 in gewünschter Höhe in eine sich über den Eckbereich erstreckende horizontale Fuge 13 eingedrückt. Beim Erhärten des Fugenmörtels ist die Duschablage sicher an den Wänden 15 und 16 befestigt. Aufgrund der zuvor beschriebenen versetzten Anordnung der Befestigungsvorsprünge 10 in Richtung der Plattenstärke S wird während der Installation automatisch ein vorbestimmtes Gefälle der Oberseite 4 des Plattenelementes 2 zur Horizontalen eingestellt, wenn bei der Positionierung der Duschablage 1 sämtliche Befestigungsvorsprünge 10 entweder gegen obere Kanten der unteren Fliesen 14 oder gegen untere Kanten der oberen Fliesen 14 gedrückt werden. Sind die Stirnseiten 5 und 6 nicht durch die weitere Stirnseite 11 miteinander verbunden, so empfiehlt sich ein ausgehend von der Ecke 12 zur Dusche abfallendes Gefälle. Wird durch die weitere Stirnseite 11 hingegen eine Öffnung 17 zwischen der Duschablage 1 und den Wänden 15 und 16 gebildet, so kann das Gefälle auch umgekehrt abwärts in Richtung der Ecke 12 gewählt werden.To install the
