ところで、上記の様な浴槽とエプロンの連結においては、浴槽の折返し部の内側が極めて狭い空間であるため、エプロン上端縁のねじ止め作業に相当の熟練を必要とし、ユニットバスの施工においては、前記のねじ止め作業が施工効率を低下させている。本発明は、斯かる実情に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的は、浴槽とエプロンとの連結が極めて容易な改良されたユニットバスを提供することにある。
【0005】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は、上記の課題を解決するため、洗い場側の浴槽の上縁に形成された折返し部の内側に特定形状の補強用縦リブを架設し、また、エプロンの上端縁に特定形状の掛止片を形成することにより、補強用縦リブと掛止片との嵌合構造を構成し、洗い場側からのエプロンの装着を可能にした。
【0006】
すなわち、本発明の要旨は、浴槽に隣接して洗い場が設けられ且つ当該洗い場側の前記浴槽の前面にエプロンが立ち上げられた構造を備え、前記洗い場側の浴槽の上縁に下方への折返し部が形成され、かつ、当該折返し部に前記エプロンの上端縁が挿入固定されるユニットバスにおいて、前記折返し部の内側には、前記浴槽の幅方向に直交して複数の補強用縦リブが架設され、かつ、当該補強用縦リブの下端縁は、上方に没入した凹部を備え、前記エプロンの上端縁は、前記凹部に係合する掛止片を備え、そして、前記エプロンは、前記補強用縦リブの凹部に前記掛止片を挿入することにより、前記洗い場側から装着可能になされていることを特徴とするユニットバスに存する。
【0007】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明に係るユニットバスの一実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。図1は、本発明に係るユニットバスにおける浴槽の折返し部とエプロンとの連結構造を示す部分的な縦断面図であり、図2は、本発明に係るユニットバスにおけるエプロン上端部の構造の他の態様を示す部分的な縦断面図である。図3は、本発明に係るユニットバスの設置状態を示す側面側から見た縦断面図である。
【0008】
本発明のユニットバスは、図3に示す様に、外観的な構造は従来のものと略同様であり、浴槽(1)に隣接して洗い場(2)が設けられ且つ浴槽(1)側に臨む洗い場(2)の側縁から浴槽(1)の前面にエプロン(3)が立ち上げられた構造を備えている。
【0009】
本発明のユニットバスは、洗い場とエプロンが一体成形され、浴槽とエプロンを締結することにより、全体を一体化する2分割構造のバスとして構成されていてもよいが、図3に例示する様に、浴槽(1)、洗い場(2)及びエプロン(3)がそれぞれ独立の部材として形成された3分割構造のバスとして構成することも出来る。
【0010】
すなわち、図3に示すユニットバスは、浴槽(1)、洗い場(2)及びエプロン(3)が独立部材として形成され、各別に設置された浴槽(1)と洗い場(2)との境界部分にエプロン(3)を取り付ける様になされている。なお、浴槽(1)、洗い場(2)、エプロン(3)及び後述の意匠エプロン(4)は、通常、耐熱性樹脂を使用したシートモールドコンパウンド、レジントランスファーモールディング、ハンドレイアップ等のFRP成形法によって成形される。
【0011】
図3に示す様に、浴槽(1)は、床面に設置された架台(6)の上に配置される。浴槽(1)の外郭形状は、平面視した場合、通常は方形に形成され、浴槽(1)の洗い場(2)側を除く3辺部には、壁パネル(図示省略)を受けるための段状のフランジ部(13)が設けられる。なお、図中、符号(11)は排水口、符号(16)は底面に設けられた補強リブをそれぞれ示す。
【0012】
浴槽(1)の上縁は、意匠性を高め且つ触れた際に良好な感触を得るために曲面に形成される。洗い場(2)側の浴槽(1)の上縁は、図1及び図3に示す様に、エプロン(3)の上端縁を挿入して固定するため、下方へ折り返された折返し部(12)として形成される。図1に示す様に、折返し部(12)の内側には、浴槽(1)の幅方向(洗い場(2)側から見て左右の方向)に沿って補強用の横リブ(12c)が伸長される。
【0013】
更に、横リブ(12c)と浴槽(1)の側壁上部との間には、浴槽(1)の幅方向に直交して複数の補強用縦リブ(12f)が架設される。補強用縦リブ(12f)は、浴槽(1)の幅方向を所定ピッチで分割する位置に複数配置される。そして、エプロン(3)の上端縁を嵌合させ得る様に、補強用縦リブ(12f)の下端縁は、上方に没入した凹部(12g)を備えている。
【0014】
洗い場(2)は、図3に示す様に、床面に設置された架台(7)の上に配置される。洗い場(2)は、平面形状が例えば方形に形成された略平板状の成形体であり、例えば、浴槽(1)側の端部に排水口(21)を備えている。図示した洗い場(2)は、バリアフリーの施工に適用されるものであり、洗い場(2)の表面は、排水口(21)に向けて下り傾斜となる様な排水勾配を備えている。また、浴槽(1)側の側縁を除く洗い場(2)の3周縁には、壁パネル(図示省略)を建込むための溝部(25)が張出されている。
【0015】
図3に示す様に、浴槽(1)側に臨む洗い場(2)の側縁には、エプロン(3)を連結する連結部(20)が設けられる。連結部(20)は、エプロン(3)の取付の便宜を考慮して特定の形状に形成される。すなわち、連結部(20)は、図1に示す様に、洗い場(2)の側縁に沿って立ち上げられた立上り片(22)と、当該立上り片の上端縁に亙り当該上端縁から浴槽(1)側に向けて張り出された張出し片(23)とから構成され、後述するエプロン(3)の下端部の掛止片(32)を受け止める様になされている。なお、図3中、符号(26)は底面に設けられた補強リブを示す。
【0016】
エプロン(3)は、図3に示す様に、防水性を確保し且つ意匠エプロン(4)を補強するために浴槽(1)の前面に付設される。図示しないが、エプロン(3)には作業用の点検口が前面に設けられており、斯かる点検口により、排水口(11)及び排水口(21)への排水配管の接続施工および排水配管の保守を洗い場(2)側から行う様になされている。なお、上記の点検口には、防水用の蓋が洗い場(2)側から取り付けられる。
【0017】
図1に示す様に、エプロン(3)の上端縁は、上記の補強用縦リブ(12f)の凹部(12g)に係合する掛止片(31)を備えている。エプロン(3)の上端縁の形状は、種々の形状に設計し得るが、具体的には、エプロン(3)の上端縁は、例えば、浴槽(1)側に例えば2段に折曲された階段状の断面形状の掛止片(31)、すなわち、浴槽(1)の幅方向に直交する断面が逆L字状に形成された掛止片(31)を備えている。これにより、エプロン(3)の上端縁は、補強用縦リブ(12f)の凹部(12g)に掛止片(31)を挿入することにより、洗い場(2)側からの作業によって固定できる様になされている。
【0018】
更に、図2に示す様に、エプロン(3)の上端縁には、当該エプロンを装着した場合、折返し部(12)の横リブ(12c)の外側(洗い場(2)側)に位置する被覆片(31d)が掛止片(31)と平行に設けられていてもよい。すなわち、図2に示すエプロン(3)においては、その上端縁を浴槽(1)に固定する場合、補強用縦リブ(12f)の凹部(12g)に掛止片(31)を嵌合させると共に、掛止片(31)と被覆片(31d)とによって折返し部(12)の横リブ(12c)を挟み付ける様になされている。上記の様な被覆片(31d)が設けられている場合には、エプロン(3)上端部の止水性を一層高めることが出来る。
【0019】
また、図1に示す様に、エプロン(3)の下端部には、当該エプロンの幅方向に亙り浴槽(1)側に向けて掛止片(32)が張出され、そして、設置された洗い場(2)の連結部(20)の上記の張出し片(23)の上にエプロン(3)の掛止片(32)を重ね合わせることにより、エプロン(3)の下端縁は、洗い場(2)側からの作業によって連結部(20)に固定できる様になされている。
【0020】
すなわち、エプロン(3)は、その上端縁を浴槽(1)の折返し部(12)の内側に挿入し、その下端縁を洗い場(2)の連結部(20)に係合させ、掛止片(32)と張出し片(23)とをねじ(81)により締結することにより、固定可能になされている。なお、上記の様な掛止片(32)と張出し片(23)との締結作業は、上記のエプロン(3)の点検口から行うことが出来る。
【0021】
本発明のユニットバスにおいては、上記の様なエプロン(3)を取り付けることにより、浴槽(1)の前面側において必要な強度と防水性を確保し、そして、図1及び図3に示す様に、エプロン(3)の表面側に意匠エプロン(4)を洗い場(2)から取り付けることにより、意匠性を高める様になされている。具体的には、意匠エプロン(4)の上端縁は、略L字状に形成されて浴槽(1)の折返し部(12)の内側に差し込む様になされ、また、意匠エプロン(4)の下端部は、当該下端部内側とエプロン(3)の下端部表側に取り付けられたファスナー(5)によりエプロン(3)下端部に貼着する様になされている。
【0022】
本発明のユニットバスは、浴室内に浴槽(1)及び洗い場(2)を設置し、所要の配管施工を行った後、エプロン(3)及び意匠エプロン(4)を装着して構築される。すなわち、エプロン(3)の取付においては、前述の様に、先ず、浴槽(1)の折返し部(12)内側にエプロン(3)の上端縁を下方から挿入し、補強用縦リブ(12f)の凹部(12g)にエプロン(3)の掛止片(31)を嵌合させた後、エプロン(3)の下端部の掛止片(32)を洗い場(2)の連結部(20)の張出し片(23)に重ね合わせ、次いで、掛止片(32)と張出し片(23)とをねじ(81)により締結する。そして、前述の構造を利用し、エプロン(3)の表側に意匠エプロン(4)を装着する。
【0023】
上記の様に、本発明のユニットバスは、洗い場(2)側からの作業によってエプロン(3)と浴槽(1)とを容易に連結することが出来る。換言すれば、本発明においては、浴槽(1)上縁の折返し部(12)の内側に特定形状の補強用縦リブ(12f)が架設され、エプロン(3)の上端縁に特定形状の掛止片(31)が形成されており、補強用縦リブ(12f)と掛止片(31)とで嵌合構造を構成する様になされているため、浴槽(1)及び洗い場(2)を設置した後に洗い場(2)側から簡単にエプロン(3)を取り付けることが出来る。従って、本発明によれば、一層効率的にユニットバスを施工することが出来る。
【0024】
【発明の効果】
本発明のユニットバスによれば、浴槽の折返し部の内側に特定形状の補強用縦リブが架設され、エプロンの上端縁に特定形状の掛止片が形成されており、補強用縦リブと掛止片とで嵌合構造を構成する様になされているため、浴槽および洗い場を設置した後に洗い場側から簡単にエプロンを取り付けることが出来、施工性を一層高めることが出来る。
