Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sanitary ware, and in particular to the structure of a sanitary ware container. Background Technology

[0002] Bathroom containers such as bathtubs and washbasins typically have an overflow hole on the upper part of their inner wall to prevent water from spilling onto the floor. To improve quality, a cover is often placed over the overflow hole to conceal it. However, in existing technology, the overflow hole is usually designed as disclosed in Chinese utility model patent application number 202021061497.5, entitled "A Water Inlet Overflow Device and Bathtub." In this design, the overflow hole is located on the side wall of the bathtub, the main body of the overflow device is positioned on the outside of the bathtub, and the cover is fixed to the main body with screws or clips. In this solution, because the cover protrudes from the bathtub wall, it is easy to bump into the user during use, resulting in a smaller usable space inside the bathtub. Furthermore, the protruding cover affects the overall integrity of the bathtub, making it appear rough and significantly impacting its quality.

[0003] Given the above-mentioned shortcomings of the existing technology, the applicant believes it is necessary to make technical improvements to provide a bathroom container with a larger usable space and higher quality. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the above-mentioned problems and deficiencies and provide an improved structure for a bathroom container. By extending the top edge of the side wall of the bathroom container downward along its inner side to form a concave overflow groove, the overflow cover is embedded in the overflow groove, and the top and outer surfaces of the overflow cover are flush with the top edge and inner surface of the bathroom container body, respectively, thereby improving the effective space utilization of the bathroom container body and improving product quality.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] An improved structure for a bathroom container includes a bathroom container body, an overflow hole, and an overflow cover. The feature is that the top edge of one side wall of the bathroom container body extends downwards along its inner side to form a concave overflow groove, the overflow hole is disposed within the overflow groove, and the overflow cover is placed within the overflow groove, with its top surface and outer surface respectively flush with the top edge and inner surface of the side wall of the bathroom container body.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom of the bathroom container body is provided with a water outlet hole, and the side wall and bottom wall of the bathroom container body are integrally formed with an overflow channel connecting the overflow hole and the water outlet hole.

[0008] Furthermore, reinforcing ribs are provided at the bottom of the bathroom container body located below the overflow channel.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the other side wall of the bathroom container body is provided with an integrally formed sunken platform.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] First, the top edge of the side wall of the bathroom container extends downwards along its inner side to form a concave overflow groove. The overflow cover is placed in this overflow groove, with its top and surface flush with the top edge and inner surface of the side wall of the bathroom container body, respectively. This makes the surface of the entire bathroom container very flat, and the overall structure is simpler. The overflow cover not only does not disrupt the integrity of the bathroom container but also serves as a decorative element, enhancing the product's quality. At the same time, the overflow cover will not bump into people, thus not occupying the internal space of the bathroom container. This maximizes the effective use of space in the bathroom container, greatly improving the comfort of the bathroom product. It is also particularly suitable for bathtubs and washbasins in small apartments, making it widely applicable.

[0012] Secondly, the overflow groove is formed by extending downward along the inner side of the top edge of the side wall of the bathroom container body. Bathroom containers are usually ceramic products. When making the blank, it is only necessary to set a corresponding protrusion on the edge of the mold. When the container blank is demolded after being pressed and formed, the protrusion will not hinder demolding. Therefore, the manufacturing difficulty is small, the yield is high, and the manufacturing cost is also low.

[0013] In addition, the overflow groove extends to the top edge of the side wall of the bathroom container body. This allows the overflow cover to be installed from the top edge of the side wall of the bathroom container body down along the bottom of the overflow groove. The operating space is very spacious, making it easier to install and more efficient. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this utility model provides an improved structure for a bathroom container, including a bathroom container body 1, an overflow hole 2, and an overflow cover 3. To achieve the purpose proposed by this utility model, the top edge of one side wall of the bathroom container body 1 extends downward along its inner side to form a concave overflow groove 11. The overflow hole 2 is disposed within the overflow groove 11, and the overflow cover 3 is placed within the overflow groove 11, with its top surface and outer surface flush with the top edge and inner surface of the side wall of the bathroom container body 1, respectively. This prevents the overflow cover 3 from bumping into the user, thereby maximizing the utilization of the internal space of the bathroom container body 1 and making the utility model more comfortable to use.

[0022] like Figure 1 , 4 As shown, the overflow cover 3 is preferably a metal panel with a water passage hole 31, which is aligned with the center of the overflow hole 2. The bathroom container body 3 is usually made of ceramic material, so the embedded metal overflow cover 3 can also play a good decorative role, making the bathroom container body 1 more exquisite and of higher quality.

[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the bathroom container body 1 is provided with a water outlet 12, and the side wall and bottom wall of the bathroom container body 1 are integrally formed with an overflow channel 13 that connects the overflow hole 2 and the water outlet 12. This eliminates the need for an additional overflow pipe during installation; only a drain pipe needs to be installed at the water outlet 12, thus speeding up the installation of the bathroom container product. Furthermore, the overall appearance of the bathroom container product is very simple, without any unnecessary lines, which better meets the requirements of the current minimalist interior design style.

[0024] To compensate for the loss of mechanical strength in the overflow channel 13 at the bottom of the bathroom container body, such as Figure 3 As shown, a reinforcing rib 14 is provided at the bottom of the bathroom container body 1 located below the overflow channel 13.

[0025] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 5, an integrally formed sunken platform 15 is provided on the top of the other side wall of the bathroom container body 1. In this way, toiletries can be placed on the sunken platform 15 when washing up, which is convenient to take out and can also prevent water from splashing onto the outside of the bathroom container when taking out toiletries, greatly improving the user experience.

[0026] To reduce the weight of bathroom container products, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, a cavity 16 is provided inside the bathroom container body 1 located below the sunken platform 15.

[0027] Furthermore, when the bathroom container product is a bathtub, in order to allow for more flexible placement of the bathroom container product, the sunken platform 15 is provided with at least one mounting hole 4 for installing a faucet or shower head. In this way, when the bathtub is placed in the middle of the room, the water pipes are hidden in the cavity 16, and the faucet or shower head is installed on the bathroom container through the mounting hole 4. This eliminates the need to occupy extra space to install faucets, shower heads, etc., making the room very tidy and easier to clean.

[0028] To enhance the load-bearing capacity of the bathroom container body 1, such as Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the inner wall of the cavity 16 extends downward to form a support plate 17.

[0029] To further improve the safety of bathroom containers, such as Figure 5 As shown, a handle 5 is also provided on the side wall of the bathroom container body 1 located next to the overflow cover 3. The handle 5 is made of the same material as the overflow cover 3 to maintain a consistent product style.

[0030] In addition, such as Figure 6 As shown, this utility model can also be used as a washbasin product. Since the overflow cover 3 does not occupy the internal space of the washbasin, the internal space of the washbasin is used more effectively. Therefore, small-sized washbasin products can be made, which are very suitable for small bathrooms. The washbasin product has a simple structure and also helps to improve the decoration level of the bathroom.
