Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cabin for showering and bathing, with a closable access opening, with a tub and with one or more shower heads arranged above the tub.
  • shower cubicles of the type mentioned at the outset are prefabricated as complete units so that after they have been set up, they only need to be connected to the hot and cold water supply system.
  • These cabins have a bathtub, which is designed either as a lying or sitting bathtub or as a shower tray, shower heads being arranged above the tub, so that either showering or bathing can be carried out in the cabins.
  • the invention has for its object to design cabins of the type mentioned so that they can be used not only for bathing and showering, but also equally for the full body massage.
  • a cabin according to the invention thus has shower heads which are arranged above the tub over the entire cross-section of the cabin, so that the cabin can be coated with water as a whole by the shower heads. Furthermore, supports are arranged above the tub, onto which a grate can be placed, so that a person lying on the grate can be sprayed on all sides by the shower nozzles in a lying position. At the height of the grate, an opening is formed on one end of the cabin through which the head can be pushed outwards so that only the body is exposed to the shower jets.
  • the water collecting in the tub is fed to a circulating pump, which is reused of the shower water and thus reduces the water consumption and which - on the other hand brings about an increase in pressure, the pressure advantageously being adjustable. This allows the massage effect to be controlled over a wide range.
  • further jets are arranged in the tub, specifically on the floor and / or on the side wall, which are directed towards the interior, so that underwater massages are also carried out in the tub.
  • the shower heads as well as the nozzles can be operated separately from one another, so that the massage can also be restricted to partial areas of the body.
  • the cabin 1 shown in the figures has an essentially rectangular plan and has an access opening 3 on its front side 2, which, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 6, can be closed by means of a sliding door 4.
  • a further opening 6 is in the side wall 5 arranged, which can be closed by means of a curtain 7. This forehand is divided into two halves by a slot 8.
  • the tub 10 is installed in the cabin 1 and is provided in the usual manner with an overflow 11 and a water inlet 12. At the bottom of the tub there is an outlet 13 which, as can best be seen from FIG. 4, has a collecting pipe 14 A heating coil 14a is installed in this collecting pipe 14, which is used to keep the temperature constant or to raise the temperature. A control device 46 is used to set the desired temperature.
  • a pipe 15 and a pipe 16 are connected to the pipe 14. The line 15 leads to a circulating pump 17, while the line 16 leads to a drain (not shown).
  • a valve 18 is switched on which can be actuated by means of a lever 19.
  • the overflow 11 is connected to the line 16, specifically in Direction of flow downstream of the valve 18 so that a too high water level in the tub 10 is avoided.
  • a line 20 is also connected to the circulating pump 17, which leads to the shower heads 21, 22, 23 arranged above the tub can be controlled.
  • a line 28 is connected to the line 20 via a valve 27 - (FIG. 4), which leads to nozzles 29-34 arranged in the side walls of the tub. can be switched off.
  • the nozzles 29 -3 4 can be designed as injector nozzles so that air is entrained. However, it is also conceivable to blow compressed air elsewhere into the line 28 leading to the nozzles 29 -3 4 .
  • a pressure medium line 35 is also connected to the line 28, via which the nozzles 29 -3 4 can be supplied with pressurized water independently of the circulation pump 17.
  • the line 35 is also connected to the line 20, as can be seen from FIG. 2.
  • a valve 36 is switched into the supply line, with which the supply of fresh water to the shower heads 21-23 can be controlled.
  • the tub rim 37 of the tub 10 is designed as a support for a grate 38 which covers the entire surface of the tub
  • a bracket 39 is arranged above the support 9 and lies in the user's field of vision and has instruments for the temperature and pressure display
  • a cabin according to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 6 can be used in many ways. On the one hand, use as a normal bathtub or as a normal shower tray is possible, while standing showering in the bathtub is possible. Furthermore, is a sub Water massage possible in the tub, with the nozzles 29 - 34 being supplied either with water originating from the pressure medium line 35 or with circulating water which is taken from the tub 10 by the circulating pump 17.
  • a whole-body massage can be carried out, the head being outside the cabin, so that the jet pressure can be adjusted to the desired extent using the circulation pump 17.
  • the lines leading to the shower heads 21-23 are arranged in a closed space 41 which is formed by a partition wall 42 which is arranged parallel to the outer wall 43 of the cabin. Furthermore, a false ceiling 45 is drawn in under the ceiling 44 of the cabin 1, so that the lines 20 are completely covered.
  • This embodiment differs from that according to FIGS. 1 to 6 essentially in that the tub 10 is not designed as a bathtub, but only as a shower tray.
  • the grate 38 rests in part on the edge 37 of the tub 10 and in the other on a support 40 which is fastened to the walls of the shower cubicle 1. Otherwise, the function is the same as that based on the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 6 is described
  • FIG. 8 essentially corresponds to that in FIG. 7, but here, in addition, compressed air is blown into the cabin 1 via a compressed air blower 47, which is followed by a heating device 48.
  • This compressed air which is heated in the heating device 48, reaches a compressed air line 49, to which a plurality of nozzles 50 are connected, which are arranged in the area of the shower heads 21-23. This ensures that the air entering is entrained by the water jet.
  • the air blown into the cabin exits to the outside again via an air outlet opening 51.
  • a channel 52 is connected to the air outlet opening 51 and is formed by the outer wall and an intermediate wall 53 arranged in the interior parallel to the outer wall.
  • This channel extends perpendicular to the wall and has its entry opening in the lower area.
  • the escaping air is forced to sweep along the cold outer wall, so that it is thereby cooled and loses a large part of the moisture, so that it can now escape directly from the air outlet opening 51 into the surrounding space.
  • the water condensed in the channel 52 can drip down and flows back into the tub 10.
  • the fresh air that is pressed in ensures that the water is enriched with oxygen, which then appears on the skin of the user and is massaged directly into it.
