Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom fixtures technology, and in particular to a quick-installation inverted structure for a bathtub. Background Technology

[0002] A bathtub is a device for bathing or showering, typically installed in hotel and home bathrooms. Because bathtubs are directly exposed in the bathroom and are easily damaged, a surrounding enclosure is usually installed during installation. This enclosure not only protects the bathtub but also serves a decorative purpose.

[0003] Currently, traditional household or hotel bathtubs are mostly installed against the wall in the bathroom. To secure the bathtub, a cement or brick structure is often used as a skirt to fix the bathtub body. This involves first building a brickwork structure on the floor where the bathtub will be installed to create a space large enough to accommodate the bathtub body, then placing the bathtub body into the space, and finally using cement to completely fix the bathtub body in place. Finally, various decorative tiles are applied to the cement surface.

[0004] This type of fixed bathtub with its cement and brick structure requires dismantling the structure to expose the water pipes buried inside before repairs can be made when the drain is clogged. After the repairs are completed, the brickwork and cement must be rebuilt in the same way. This method is extremely inconvenient for repairs; the time required for dismantling and rebuilding the cement until it dries completely is too long and inconvenient. Furthermore, this skirting method is unsuitable for prefabricated bathrooms that are assembled using a molding process. Utility Model Content

[0028] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 The present invention provides a more detailed description of an embodiment of a quick-installation inverted structure for a bathtub.

[0029] A quick-installation inverted structure for a bathtub, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the bathtub includes a tub body 1, a fixing frame 2 for fixing and supporting the tub body 1, and a skirt 3 for enclosing and covering the outer surface of the fixing frame 2. The tub body 1 is recessed within the fixing frame 2, and the edge of the tub body 1 is folded inward to form a snap-fit ​​position 11. One end of the fixing frame 2 abuts against the snap-fit ​​position 11, and the other end is fixedly connected to a base 4. A splicing buckle 5 is provided at the abutment between the fixing frame 2 and the snap-fit ​​position 11. One end of the splicing buckle 5 is fixedly connected to the tub body 1, and the other end is detachably connected to the fixing frame 2. The top of the skirt 3 connects to the edge of the snap-fit ​​position 11 of the tub body 1, and the skirt 3 is arranged around the four sides of the fixing frame 2.

[0030] Specifically, to facilitate the on-site assembly and installation of the bathtub body 1 and the skirt 3, a fixed frame 2 is installed at the bottom of the bathtub body 1 instead of the traditional cement and brick structure, which can stably support the load-bearing bathtub body 1. At the same time, in order to facilitate the concealment and enclosure of the four sides of the bathtub body 1 and improve its aesthetics, the skirt 3, which is composed of interlocking parts, is fixed to the side wall of the fixed frame 2. It can not only perform the function of concealment, but also serve as an inspection door, which facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair.

[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the skirt 3 is composed of multiple panels 31 and arc-shaped connecting strips 32. The multiple arc-shaped connecting strips 32 are arranged around the four edges of the bathtub body 1, and the two ends of the arc-shaped connecting strips 32 are engaged with the panels 31 by buckle strips 6. The bottom end of the buckle strips 6 is engaged with the base 4.

[0032] Specifically, the height of the skirt 3 is set to be the same as that of the bathtub. When the arc-shaped connecting strip 32 is connected to the panel 31, the buckle strip 6 is inserted between the arc-shaped connecting strip 32 and the panel 31 to fix the arc-shaped connecting strip 32 and the panel 31. This allows the panel 31 to surround and cover the four sides of the bathtub body 1, thus forming the skirt 3. In order to maintain the stability of the skirt 3, the buckle strip 6 is fixed to the base 4 to lock the skirt 3. This allows the skirt 3 to stably support the bathtub body 1. The detachable panel 31 facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair.

[0033] In this embodiment, every two panels 31 are connected to the buckle strip 6 as a group, and adjacent two panels 31 are fixed by hinges. A water outlet is provided on the panel 31 located on the side wall of the bathtub body 1.

[0034] It is worth noting that the water outlet on the side panel 31 avoids the water pipe from running out of the wall, thus preventing it from affecting the aesthetics of the installation. At the same time, the panels 31 are hinged together, effectively functioning as an openable access door. This facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the connecting pipes of the bathtub body 1, allowing for quick on-site installation of the bathtub body 1 within the skirt 3, and also facilitating subsequent maintenance and repairs.

[0035] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the buckle strip 6 includes a base part 61, a connecting part 62, and a snap-fit ​​part 63. The base part 61, the connecting part 62, and the snap-fit ​​part 63 are integrally formed, and one side of the base part 61 is fitted to the connecting part 62. The snap-fit ​​part 63 has an L-shaped structure and is symmetrically arranged on one side of the connecting part 62. A cavity 64 is formed between two adjacent snap-fit ​​parts 63.

[0036] Specifically, when assembling the various panels 31 and the arc-shaped connectors, the arc-shaped connectors are first fixed to the four corners of the fixed frame 2. Then, the snap-fit ​​part 63 of the snap-fit ​​strip 6 is snapped onto one side of the panel 31, and the other side of the snap-fit ​​strip 6 is snapped onto the arc-shaped connector 32 through the snap-fit ​​part 63. This achieves the connection between the panel 31 and the arc-shaped connector 32. The skirt 3 can be assembled by simple splicing, so that it can be quickly aligned with the snap-fit ​​position 11 of the bathtub body, thereby quickly achieving installation.

[0037] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 , 6 As shown, a snap-fit ​​groove 65 is formed between the snap-fit ​​part 63 and the connecting part 62. The panel 31 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 65 on one side, and the arc-shaped connecting strip 32 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 65 on the other side.

[0038] Specifically, the spacing of the snap-fit ​​groove 65 is greater than that of the panel 31 but smaller than that of the arc-shaped connecting strip 32. When the snap-fit ​​part 63 is connected to the panel 31, the panel 31 can be inserted along the snap-fit ​​groove 65 to complete the splicing. When the snap-fit ​​part 63 is connected to the arc-shaped connecting strip 32, one end of the snap-fit ​​part 63 is inserted into the arc-shaped connecting strip 32, and the snap-fit ​​groove 65 is engaged with the protrusion on the arc-shaped connecting strip 32 to complete the fixation.

[0039] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the fixed frame 2 includes a rectangular base frame 21, several uprights 22 vertically connected to the four corners and two long sides of the rectangular base frame 21, and several support rods 23 parallel to the short sides of the rectangular base frame 21 and connected at both ends to the long sides of the rectangular base frame 21. The rectangular base frame 21 is fixed to the chassis 4, and the support rods 23 are equidistantly and parallelly arranged between the fixed frames 2. The top of the uprights 22 is connected to the snap-fit ​​position 11 of the bathtub body 1 by splicing buckles 5.

[0040] Specifically, the fixed frame 2 serves as the supporting structure for the bathtub body. The entire fixed frame 2 is made of aluminum alloy. To fit the bathtub body 1, uprights 22 are installed on the rectangular base frame 21 corresponding to the edge slots 11 of the bathtub body 1. These uprights 22 provide vertical support for the bathtub body 1, and their tops are connected to the bathtub body 1 via splicing buckles 5, allowing for quick fixation of the bathtub body 1 to the fixed frame 2. The rectangular base frame 21, serving as the lateral support for the bathtub body 1, has multiple support rods 23 spaced equidistantly in its lateral direction to ensure sufficient rigidity. These support rods 23 abut against the bottom of the bathtub body 1, distributing and supporting part of the bathtub body 1's weight, effectively improving the stability and firmness of the bathtub body 1 installed on the fixed frame 2.

[0041] In this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the splicing buckle 5 has an L-shaped structure, and multiple splicing buckles 5 are provided. The two ends of the multiple splicing buckles 5 are respectively fixedly connected to the bathtub body 1 and the upright rod 22 by screws.

[0042] Specifically, when the L-shaped splicing buckle 5 is connected to the upright 22 and the bathtub body 1, connecting holes are opened on both ends of the splicing buckle 5, corresponding to the mounting holes opened on the upright 22 and the bathtub body 1. Therefore, when installing the splicing buckle 5, it is only necessary to use screws to lock and fix it along the connecting holes and mounting holes. However, when installing the splicing buckle 5, it is important to note that the splicing buckle 5 should be installed on the bathtub body 1 first, and then fixed to the upright 22.

[0043] In this embodiment, as Figure 6 As shown, the splicing buckle 5 has a U-shaped structure. One end of the splicing buckle 5 facing away from the opening is fixed to the bathtub body 1, and the other end is upside down and set on the upright 22. The splicing buckle 5 and the upright 22 are connected by adjusting screw thread.

[0044] Specifically, when the U-shaped splicing buckle 5 is connected to the upright 22 and the bathtub body 1, first fix the end facing away from the opening to the bathtub body 1, then snap the end facing the upright 22 so that its two side walls fit against the side walls of the upright 22, and then use the adjusting screw to lock through the upright 22 and the splicing buckle 5 to complete the fixation of the bathtub body 1 to the upright.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model:

[0046] Before installing the skirt 3 of the bathtub body 1, the fixed frame 2 is first fixed at the position corresponding to the base 4. Then, the splicing buckle 5 is installed on the bathtub body 1 at the position corresponding to the upright 22. Then, multiple panels 31 and arc-shaped connecting strips 32 are spliced ​​together by buckle strips 6 so that they can surround the four sides of the bathtub body 1. Finally, the bathtub body 1 is installed in the fixed frame 2, and after ensuring that the splicing buckle 5 and the upright 22 are matched, it is locked and fixed so that the snap-fit ​​position 11 of the edge of the bathtub body 1 bends inward and abuts the skirt 3. This solves the problem of difficult disassembly and maintenance of the bathtub skirt 3 in the prior art. By setting the skirt 3 as a detachable structure, the bathtub body can be quickly installed in the skirt 3, making it convenient for inspection and maintenance, and also aesthetically pleasing.

[0047] The embodiments described in this specific implementation are preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Identical components are represented by the same reference numerals. Therefore, all equivalent changes made to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
