Description

Device for supporting the installation of wall-hung toilets Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a device for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet, by means of which the wall-hung toilet can be positioned at a predetermined installation location on a wall and then fixedly mounted on the wall by special fasteners. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, the installation of wall-hung toilets is typically accomplished by two people or by the support of a mechanical lifting device. These lifting devices are usually made of metal or plastic and are expensive to purchase and cumbersome to operate.

[0003] Furthermore, the lifting devices using existing technology are heavy, which is not conducive to transportation and storage. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, the object of the present invention is to realize a new device for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet, the device being simple in construction and allowing the wall-hung toilet to be installed by only one person, and being universal in nature.

[0005] The solution to the task is generated by a device for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet as described in claim 1, which is stated as follows:

[0006] A device for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet, characterized in that the device comprises a mounting block made substantially of cardboard, the mounting block having on its upper side a cavity for receiving the outflow bend of the wall-hung toilet and a placement surface surrounding the cavity and for the lower side of the wall-hung toilet, the height of the mounting block being adapted to the installation height of the wall-hung toilet.

[0007] The device according to the invention for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet is inexpensively constructed from stable cardboard, which is configured such that it can bear the weight of the toilet and reduce the load on the installer during installation.

[0008] According to the invention, a wall-mounted toilet reliably mounted on the device is pushed onto a predetermined installation position on the wall by only one installer, so that the toilet can be fixed in the desired position on the wall.

[0009] This significantly reduces the need for physical exertion and lowers the risk of injury and misalignment during the installation process.

[0010] In one embodiment of the invention, the mounting block is configured as a straight-edged U-shaped member, which advantageously provides a three-sided surrounding placement surface and a cavity for placing the outflow bend.

[0011] In an advantageous embodiment, the mounting block may be composed of a honeycomb structure panel made of cardboard and wrapped with corrugated paper and kraft paper.

[0012] Alternatively, the mounting block can be composed of multiple interlocking honeycomb structure panels, wherein the shape of the mounting block can be adapted to the internal dimensions of the packaging carton for the wall-hung toilet. This has the advantage that the mounting block thus provides a certain degree of protection under the sensitive wall-hung toilet within the transport carton.

[0013] In summary, the advantage of the device for supporting the installation of a wall-mounted toilet according to the present invention is primarily that it is user-friendly, allowing only one installer to precisely install the toilet at the desired height on the wall without much physical exertion, thus making the entire installation process more efficient.

[0014] Furthermore, the device for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet according to the invention can be implemented at low cost because the mounting block is made of cardboard products that can be advantageously manufactured and inexpensively recycled.

[0015] If the cardboard is made from recycled products, then the device according to the invention for supporting the installation of a wall-hung toilet can be considered a sustainable product. Furthermore, the ecological footprint is small because of the device's small weight and ease of transport. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Other advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the description of the embodiments. The accompanying drawings are as follows:

[0017] Figure 1 shows a side view of a wall-hung toilet;

[0018] Figure 2 shows an exploded view of the wall-hung toilet and mounting block from an angle.

[0019] Figures 3a to 3c show different views of the mounting block configured as a U-shaped piece with straight edges; and

[0020] Figure 4 shows a view of a wall-hung toilet positioned by a mounting block. Detailed Implementation

[0021] In the accompanying drawings, the device used to support the installation of the wall-hung toilet is generally indicated by reference numeral 10, and this device is referred to below as the mounting block.

[0022] In this embodiment, the mounting block 10 is configured as a U-shaped member 11 with straight edges, and has a base 12 and two legs 13. A cavity 14 is provided between the two legs 13.

[0023] The base 12 has a width of 37cm, and legs 13 of 32cm in length are respectively provided on the end side of the base 12 facing the wall W and locking together (see Figures 3a-3c).

[0024] The internal structure of the straight-edged U-shaped component 11 is visible in Figure 3c. The U-shaped component has two honeycomb panels WP with a thickness of approximately 5 cm, a corrugated paper P surrounding each honeycomb panel WP, and a sleeve made of kraft paper K.

[0025] The wall-hung toilet 15 is schematically visible in Figure 1, which includes a sanitary ceramic 16, a lid 17, and an outflow bend 18 extending from below the outline.

[0026] As shown in particular in Figures 2 and 4 in conjunction with Figure 3, the mounting block 10 has a U-shaped support surface 19 on the upper side facing the wall-hung toilet 15, which surrounds the cavity 14. The lower side 20 of the wall-hung toilet 15 is supported on the support surface in the mounting position (Figure 4), and the outflow bend 18 is inserted into the cavity 14.

[0027] For the installation of the wall-hung toilet in the intended location, the wall-hung toilet 15, along with the mounting block 10 which may already be installed below the toilet, is removed from the shipping packaging and then moved to the desired wall position in the bathroom. The wall-hung toilet 15, fully supported by the mounting block 10, can then be installed on the wall W in a user-friendly and simple manner by an installer using specialized fasteners.

[0028] After the wall-mounted toilet 15 is fixed to the wall W, simply pull out the mounting block 10 under the wall-mounted toilet 15 to complete the installation.
