Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of bathtubs, and more particularly relates to an installation-free folding bathtub. Background Art

[0002] A bath tub refers to a barrel-shaped container, which is mainly used for bathing in the bathroom industry. In the past, bath tubs were generally made of wood, but in order to make use and storage more convenient, bath tubs made of waterproof plastic have been welcomed by the market. Existing plastic bath tubs can be folded up when not in use, which is convenient for storage and does not take up a lot of space.

[0003] Before using the existing bathtub, it is necessary to install and fix the support rods on the bathtub body so that the bathtub as a whole forms a stable support structure. This bathtub has a complex structure and many installation steps, which causes considerable trouble in using the bathtub. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an installation-free foldable bathtub, which can save the installation steps before the bathtub is used, is foldable for easy storage, and reduces the space occupied.

[0005] The utility model discloses a foldable bathtub that does not require installation. The bathtub comprises a bathtub body, a bathtub bottom, and support bars. The bathtub body and the bathtub bottom are both made of flexible materials. The bathtub bottom is fixedly arranged in the lower opening of the bathtub body and closes the lower opening of the bathtub body.

[0006] The barrel body comprises an inner barrel body layer and an outer barrel body layer. The outer barrel body layer is arranged outside the inner barrel body layer.

[0007] The support strips are made of a rigid material. There are a number of support strips evenly distributed between the inner and outer body layers. The outer body layer is sewn together with the inner body layer at the outer edge of the support strips to form sidewall pockets for accommodating the support strips.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the lower ends of the inner barrel body layer and the outer barrel body layer are fixedly connected to the barrel bottom.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the barrel bottom includes an inner barrel bottom layer and an outer barrel bottom layer. The inner barrel bottom layer is arranged on the upper side of the outer barrel bottom layer. The edges of the inner barrel bottom layer and the outer barrel bottom layer are respectively fixedly connected to the lower end of the barrel body.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support bar is a semi-cylindrical structure, with the arc portion facing outward and the rectangular portion facing inward.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, the side walls of the tub body are provided with side drain holes and bottom drain holes. The side drain holes connect the tub interior with the exterior, and a matching cover is attached to the side drain holes to seal the side drain holes. A bottom drain hole is also provided on the upper side of the tub bottom. The bottom drain hole connects the tub interior with the exterior, and a matching cover is attached to the bottom drain hole to seal the bottom drain hole.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support bar is made of a rigid material with a certain strength, such as wood.

[0013] As a further improvement of the present invention, the inner barrel layer is made of waterproof material.

[0014] As a further improvement of the present invention, the bottom layer of the inner barrel is made of waterproof material.

[0015] As a further improvement of the present invention, the outer barrel layer is longer than the inner barrel layer, and the edge of the outer barrel layer is folded inwards and sewn with the inner barrel layer to form a closed barrel pocket at the upper edge of the barrel body.

[0016] As a further improvement of the present invention, the height of the internal space of the side wall bag is from the lower end of the barrel body to the lower edge of the barrel pocket.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0018] 1. By providing a flexible tub body and rigid support bars, the bathtub can be installed without any pre-use steps. The tub can be quickly folded and unfolded for use, thus reducing floor space. The support bars are embedded in the closed side wall pockets during molding, fitting tightly against the tub body and preventing it from falling off during use, facilitating the rapid unfolding of the tub body.

[0019] 2. By setting the support strips of rigid materials, the strength is higher than the support strips of plastic materials currently used, which can make the overall structure of the bathtub more solid and provide better support for the unfolding and use of the bathtub.

[0024] Barrel body 1, support bar 2, side wall bag 3, barrel pocket 5, side drainage hole 6, bottom drainage hole 7. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] Specific embodiment 1: Please refer to Figure 1-3 A foldable bathtub that requires no installation is disclosed. The bathtub comprises a body 1, a bottom, and support bars 2. Both the body 1 and the bottom are made of flexible materials. The support bars 2 are made of rigid materials. Preferably, the support bars 2 are made of a rigid material of a certain strength, such as wood. The bottom is fixedly disposed within and seals the lower opening of the body 1.

[0026] The barrel body 1 includes an inner barrel layer and an outer barrel layer. The outer barrel layer is arranged outside the inner barrel layer. The lower ends of the inner barrel layer and the outer barrel layer are fixedly connected to the barrel bottom. The inner barrel layer is made of waterproof material.

[0027] The bottom of the barrel includes an inner bottom layer and an outer bottom layer. The inner bottom layer is arranged above the outer bottom layer. The edges of the inner bottom layer and the outer bottom layer are fixedly connected to the lower end of the barrel body 1. The inner bottom layer is made of waterproof material.

[0028] A number of independent side wall pockets 3 are evenly arranged on the outer circumference of the barrel body 1. The support bar 2 is arranged between the outer barrel body layer and the inner barrel body layer. The outer barrel body layer and the inner barrel body layer at the outer edge of the support bar 2 are sewn together to form the side wall pocket 3. The inside of the side wall pocket 3 is a closed space. Preferably, the height of the internal space of the side wall pocket 3 is from the lower end of the barrel body 1 to the lower edge of the barrel pocket 5. The side wall pocket 3 matches the size of the support bar 2, and the support bar 2 is embedded in the corresponding side wall pocket 3. The support bar 2 is a semi-cylindrical structure. Its arc part faces outward and the rectangular part faces inward. The side of the support bar 2 is in close contact with the barrel body 1.

[0029] When manufacturing the bathtub, the support strips 2 are directly and evenly arranged between the outer body layer and the inner body layer, and the outer body layer and the inner body layer are sewn together around the outer edge of the support strips 2 to form a fully enclosed side wall bag 3 to accommodate the support strips 2.

[0030] The outer barrel layer is longer than the inner barrel layer, and the edge of the outer barrel layer is folded inward and sewn to the inner barrel layer to form a closed barrel pocket 5 at the upper edge of the barrel body 1. A flexible barrel mouth strip can be set in the barrel pocket 5, and the barrel pocket 5 is sized to match the barrel mouth strip. The barrel mouth strip is snugly set in the barrel pocket 5.

[0031] A side drain hole 6 is formed in the side wall of the tub body 1. This drain hole 6 connects the tub's interior with the outside world and is sealed with a matching cover. A bottom drain hole 7 is formed in the upper side of the tub's bottom. This drain hole 7 connects the tub's interior with the outside world and is sealed with a matching cover.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] Before using the bathtub, first unfold the bathtub body 1 and fill the cavity with water. At this time, the expansion force of the internal water will keep the bathtub body 1 in an open state, and the side walls of the bathtub body 1 are supported by the support bars 2. At the same time, the mouth bars support the opening of the bathtub body 1 to keep it in a round state.
