Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of building materials, in particular to an anti-leakage shower pedal. Background Art

[0002] As an essential component of bathroom fixtures, shower treads provide a safe and stable standing surface, preventing slips and water seepage beneath the floor. However, existing shower tread structures typically require a tight seal between the wall and floor during installation to effectively prevent leakage. Common shower treads on the market are often caulked with cement or cement-based materials after installation. While this caulking method provides a certain degree of stability and sealing, it still has many shortcomings.

[0003] Traditional cement caulking is a rigid material lacking flexibility, making it significantly affected by ambient temperature fluctuations during daily use. Due to the frequent fluctuations in humidity and temperature in bathrooms, cement caulking is susceptible to thermal expansion and contraction. This repeated change can cause the cement to crack or flake, which not only affects the overall sealing performance but can also lead to water seepage. Furthermore, cement is prone to aging and powdering over time, further degrading its sealing performance and increasing the risk of water seepage.

[0004] When the shower footboard's sealing performance deteriorates, water can seep under the floor, damaging the flooring and even causing hygienic issues like mold growth. These shortcomings not only affect the user's daily experience but can also increase subsequent maintenance costs. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an anti-leakage shower pedal which can adapt to temperature changes in the bathroom environment while ensuring the anti-leakage effect and ensuring its service life.

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is achieved as follows: a leakage-proof shower pedal, which includes a base plate and a panel covering the base plate, wherein the base plate and the panel are fixed as a whole by a connecting device, and a sealing ring is installed on the outer contour of the panel or the base plate. After the shower pedal is installed, the sealing ring seals the gap between the outer contour of the panel or the base plate and the wall.

[0007] Furthermore: the connecting device is an adhesive.

[0008] Furthermore: the connecting device is concrete.

[0009] Furthermore: the sealing ring is a solid strip structure.

[0010] Furthermore: the sealing ring is a hollow strip structure.

[0011] Furthermore, the sealing ring is further provided with a connecting strip, which is clamped and fixed between the panel and the bottom plate to fix the sealing ring on the outer contour of the bottom plate or the panel.

[0012] Furthermore: the panel is made of rock slab.

[0013] Furthermore: the bottom plate is made of foamed ceramic.

[0014] Furthermore: a gap filler is filled between the outer contour of the panel and the wall.

[0015] Furthermore: the sealant is epoxy colored sand.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the utility model are: 1. Simple structure, low production cost and improved market competitiveness.

[0017] 2. This utility model incorporates sealing rings on the base and panel's outer contours, and uses a flexible caulking agent to fill the gaps between the panel and the wall, creating a multi-layered sealing structure. Compared to traditional cement caulking, this new sealing material offers greater flexibility and elasticity, adapting to the thermal expansion and contraction of shower environments, effectively preventing water seepage and improving sealing effectiveness.

[0024] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. A leak-proof shower footboard includes a base plate 1 and a panel 2 covering the base plate 1. The base plate 1 and the panel 2 are fixed together by a connecting device 3. A sealing ring 4 is installed on the outer contour of the panel 2 or base plate 1. When the shower footboard is installed, the sealing ring 4 seals the gap between the outer contour of the panel 2 or base plate 1 and the wall 5.

[0025] In one embodiment, the connecting device 3 is an adhesive.

[0026] In one embodiment, the connecting device 3 is made of concrete.

[0027] In one embodiment, the sealing ring 4 is a solid strip structure.

[0028] In one embodiment, the sealing ring 4 is a hollow strip structure.

[0029] In one embodiment, the sealing ring 4 is further provided with a connecting strip 6 , which is clamped and fixed between the panel 2 and the bottom plate 1 to fix the sealing ring 4 on the outer contour of the bottom plate 1 or the panel 2 .

[0030] In one embodiment, the panel 2 is made of rock slabs.

[0031] In one embodiment, the bottom plate 1 is made of foamed ceramic.

[0032] In one embodiment, a gap filler 7 is filled between the outer contour of the panel 2 and the wall 5 .

[0033] In one embodiment, the sealant 7 is epoxy colored sand.

[0034] Working Principle: In this case, the sealing ring is set at the outer contour of the panel and the base plate, and is designed as a flexible strip structure, which can be solid or hollow. The sealing ring is made of rubber material, and its main function is to fill the gap between the shower pedal and the surrounding walls to form a sealing barrier. Through this sealing barrier, moisture is effectively blocked from penetrating into the gap between the pedal and the wall, avoiding the occurrence of leakage. In addition, the flexible characteristics of the sealing ring enable it to cope with slight deformations between the wall and the pedal, thereby maintaining a good sealing effect in an environment of thermal expansion and contraction. At the same time, the design of the sealing ring can reduce the requirements for the matching size between the pedal and the wall, thereby reducing processing accuracy and facilitating on-site installation.

[0035] It's also important to note that the sealing ring is designed with a connecting strip, which is clamped between the top and bottom plates. This strip serves a dual purpose: on the one hand, it provides a seal between the top and bottom plates, filling the gap between them and preventing moisture from penetrating the pedal. On the other hand, the design of the connecting strip allows the sealing ring to be fixed to the outer contour of the bottom or top plate after the pedal is installed, preventing the sealing ring from loosening or shifting during transportation or installation. The clamping and fixing of the connecting strip ensures a more stable connection between the sealing ring and the pedal, extending the duration of the sealing effect.

[0036] In addition, the panel and the base plate are fixed by a connecting device such as adhesive or concrete. Through the use of the connecting device, the panel and the base plate form a stable integrated structure, and the base plate provides sufficient support for the panel to avoid damage to the panel during transportation or installation.

[0037] Furthermore, after the shower floor is installed, the gap between the panel's outer contour and the wall is filled with a caulking agent, such as epoxy colored sand. This caulking material not only offers excellent waterproofing but also possesses excellent rigidity, ensuring the shower floor will not shift after installation, thus preventing damage to the seal ring from excessive compression. Thus, the shower floor in this case possesses both rigid and flexible waterproofing properties, further enhancing the shower floor's overall anti-leakage performance.

[0038] In summary, the sealing ring and caulking in this case together form a multi-layered waterproof barrier. The sealing ring's flexible material and the caulking's waterproof properties ensure the shower tread maintains its seal even in high-humidity environments, preventing the cracking associated with traditional cement caulking due to thermal expansion and contraction. Furthermore, the sealing ring's connecting strip, clamped between the panel and base, ensures a secure and stable seal, further enhancing the durability of the sealing structure.

[0039] Compared with the traditional rigid cement caulking structure, the utility model adopts a combination of a flexible sealing ring and a caulking agent. When the ambient temperature changes, the sealing ring and the caulking agent can deform slightly accordingly, and are not prone to failure and water seepage due to thermal expansion and contraction.

[0040] Furthermore, traditional shower pedal installation typically requires caulking with rigid materials like cement, requiring specialized experience and tools. However, this new design utilizes a flexible sealing ring, connecting device, and caulking agent, eliminating the need for specialized installation procedures. The sealing ring and connecting strip facilitate quick installation and ensure a secure seal, simplifying the installation process and reducing costs. This design is suitable for both home users and professional installers. This provides an efficient and reliable solution for bathroom shower pedal installation and use, effectively improving the user experience of traditional shower pedals in high-humidity and temperature-variable environments and extending the product's lifespan, making it suitable for widespread adoption.

It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention.
