Description

[0001] The invention relates to a piece of furniture according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a method for manufacturing a piece of furniture according to the preamble of claim 10.

[0002] It is known in the art to manufacture furniture, and especially beds, from various materials, typically wood. Furniture construction using wood has a long tradition, based on its comparatively low weight, good workability, and high stability. However, it is also known to manufacture beds from metal, for example. Furthermore, it is known to incorporate inlays of tiles, artificial stone, or natural stone, especially in tables and benches.

[0003] In this context, DE 591 903 C1 describes the use of hollow plywood bodies for the manufacture of furniture and other objects. The furniture is made entirely or partially from seamlessly wound or cup-drawn hollow plywood bodies, which can take on various shapes. DE 591 903 C1 thus makes it possible to produce lightweight and stable furniture with minimal wall thickness without the need for additional scaffolding or frames, which is particularly suitable for use in ships and aircraft. The hollow bodies can be made from various types of wood and finished with special veneers to enhance both aesthetics and functionality.

[0004] German patent DE 29 917 733 U1 discloses a lightweight bed that is easy to assemble and disassemble and can also be transported in a space-saving manner. Design features such as side panels with dovetail-shaped end profiles, interlocking segmented notches and cutouts, and the use of thin materials result in a lightweight yet stable bed.

[0005] German patent DE 19 911 189 A1 describes a method for manufacturing lightweight furniture, particularly suitable for outdoor use. First, a custom-shaped core, usually made of rigid foam, is encased in woven mats. These mats serve as a substrate for tiles, which are attached with a special adhesive and grouted after the adhesive has cured. Additional measures, such as a moisture barrier between the core and the tiles, and the option of pretreating the core with filler, improve protection against moisture. Another piece of furniture of this type is known, for example, from German patent JP 2 852739 B2.

[0006] A bed made of solid marble is also known under the product name "FS400" from the manufacturer "Felix Schwake".

[0007] However, these well-known pieces of furniture have the disadvantage of not being able to combine the elegant appearance of solid stone furniture with the low production costs, easy transportability, and simple assembly of lightweight furniture. This is a particular drawback for use in hotels, which want to offer their guests elegant-looking furniture that also needs to be economically viable.

[0008] It is an object of the present invention to propose an improved piece of furniture.

[0009] This problem is solved according to the invention by the piece of furniture according to claim 1. Advantageous embodiments and further developments of the invention are described in the dependent claims.

[0010] The invention relates to a piece of furniture comprising an inner structure, an intermediate structure, and an outer structure, wherein the inner structure forms a supporting frame and defines the outer shape of the piece of furniture, wherein the inner structure is designed as a lightweight structure, wherein the intermediate structure enables the outer structure to be arranged on the inner structure, and wherein the outer structure consists of tiles, porcelain stoneware, and / or natural stone slabs. According to the invention, the piece of furniture is designed as a bed, and the inner structure (40) consists of rigid foam, Styrodur, aerated concrete, metallic U-profiles, and / or wood, and the intermediate structure (30) comprises a fabric layer (32) and / or a non-woven fabric layer and / or gypsum plasterboard and / or OSB panels.

[0011] The design envisions a multi-layered piece of furniture, designed as a bed. This bed features a unique construction, comprising an inner structure, an intermediate structure, and an outer structure. The combination of these three structures allows for the creation of a bed that combines low manufacturing costs, light weight, and easy assembly with a high-quality aesthetic. Particular emphasis is placed on the use of premium materials such as tiles, porcelain stoneware, and natural stone slabs for the outer structure, thus contributing to the bed's overall appearance. The natural stone slabs could be, for example, marble or granite.

[0012] Since the piece of furniture according to the invention is designed as a bed, it differs in several respects from known pieces of furniture that also have a multi-layered structure. Firstly, these known pieces of furniture are not designed as beds, but rather as tables or seating. Furthermore, the known pieces of furniture utilize a tile layer in their outer structure to achieve weather resistance, which is irrelevant for the piece of furniture according to the invention, as beds are used exclusively indoors. Accordingly, the known pieces of furniture use weatherproof tiles, which, however, generally do not have the same high-quality appearance as porcelain stoneware, natural stone slabs, or tiles for indoor use. Therefore, the weatherproof tiles used in the outdoor areas of the known pieces of furniture appear unsuitable for the piece of furniture according to the invention.

[0013] The bed's internal structure forms its supporting frame and is crucial for both its stability and its external form. It is designed as a lightweight structure, meaning it is both robust and weight-efficient to allow for easy assembly and to maintain the bed's mobility, enabling it to be moved around the room, for example, for cleaning.

[0014] The intermediate structure and the outer structure are then each placed on top of the inner structure and encase it.

[0015] The intermediate structure thus serves as a link between the inner and outer structures. Its main function is to enable a reliable and stable arrangement of the outer structure onto the inner structure. The intermediate structure therefore ensures that the outer materials can be firmly and securely attached.

[0016] Depending on its specific design, the intermediate structure can also provide other functionalities, such as serving as a moisture barrier or compensating for different thermal expansions of the inner and outer structures.

[0017] Finally, the outer structure forms the visible surface of the bed and is made of high-quality materials such as tiles, porcelain stoneware and natural stone slabs.

[0018] This selection of materials not only offers a rich range of design possibilities to satisfy various style preferences, but also ensures durability and resistance to wear and tear. The use of these materials in the outer structure gives the bed an elegant and high-quality appearance.

[0019] The invention thus proposes a bed that combines low manufacturing costs, design flexibility, durability, and high-quality outer materials in a lightweight construction. In particular, due to its lightweight construction, which is not apparent from the outside, it can be installed in almost any room of a building, for example, a hotel, without the need for special reinforcements of the intermediate floors, even if several of the beds according to the invention are installed in different rooms on the same floor.

[0020] However, a bed that appears visually identical but is made of solid material, for example marble, could not be placed in just any room without further measures.

[0021] Since the bed's surface consists of tiles, porcelain stoneware, or natural stone slabs, the bed itself is hypoallergenic. Combined with appropriate bedding, the bed is therefore particularly suitable for allergy sufferers.

[0022] Furthermore, it is possible to manufacture the bed entirely without wood. This eliminates the need to cut down forests or trees for its production. Combined with its durability, this makes the bed an extremely sustainable product.

[0023] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the piece of furniture is designed as a double bed.

[0024] Therefore, the bed is particularly suitable for couples or people who prefer the extra space when sleeping.

[0025] In hotels, too, a large number of bookable rooms are rented as double rooms, which accordingly require a double bed.

[0026] The internal structure of the double bed is correspondingly larger and, if necessary, reinforced to meet the increased demands in terms of weight and stability. Despite the larger dimensions, the lightweight construction is maintained to ensure easy handling and assembly of the bed.

[0027] The internal structure is intended to consist of rigid foam, Styrodur, concrete, aerated concrete, metallic U-profiles and / or wood.

[0028] Each of these materials offers specific advantages in terms of the bed's construction and functionality: rigid foam or Styrodur, for example, offers high strength at a low weight, making it a good choice for creating the lightweight inner structure. Its use also reduces the bed's heat capacity, which can contribute to a more comfortable sleeping environment.

[0029] Concrete and aerated concrete are particularly robust and durable. Their use in the internal structure of a bed ensures very high stability. Aerated concrete also has the advantage of being lighter than conventional concrete, which simplifies handling and assembly. Furthermore, concrete and aerated concrete are fire-resistant materials. When concrete or aerated concrete is used for the internal structure, it is advantageous to form a skeletal structure rather than a solid one, in order to maintain the lightweight construction of the internal structure.

[0030] The concrete is advantageously poured into specially designed molds before being used for the internal structure; these molds then represent the individual elements of the internal structure. It is particularly advantageous for the concrete, or the individual elements, to incorporate steel reinforcement, which further improves stability.

[0031] Metallic U-profiles offer high strength at a relatively low weight and allow for precise construction of the internal structure.

[0032] Wood combines high stability with easy workability and comparatively low weight.

[0033] The ability to manufacture the internal structure of the piece of furniture from a variety of materials allows for adaptability to different load, weight and manufacturing requirements.

[0034] According to the invention, the intermediate structure comprises a layer of filler.

[0035] As described, the intermediate structure has the task of ensuring a safe and reliable connection between the outer structure and the inner structure.

[0036] A woven or non-woven layer, due to its material properties, offers an excellent way to compensate for material stresses occurring between the outer and inner structures, particularly those resulting from differing thermal expansion. The transmission of structure-borne noise within the bed is also inhibited by the use of a woven or non-woven layer.

[0037] The fabric or non-woven layer can be bonded to the inner structure, for example, either at specific points or across the entire surface. Furthermore, the fabric or non-woven layer can be plastered over, meaning it has an additional layer of filler to facilitate the easy application of the outer structure to the fabric or non-woven layer.

[0038] Gypsum plasterboard is known for its ease of use and good sound insulation. Furthermore, gypsum plasterboard offers a solid and smooth surface for attaching external structures.

[0039] OSB boards (Oriented Strand Board) They are characterized by their high strength and durability combined with low weight and ease of processing.

[0040] The use of a filler layer allows for an extremely smooth and adaptable surface for the exterior structure. It is well-suited for creating a suitable surface texture for applying the chosen exterior structure. The filler layer is preferably applied in addition to one of the previously mentioned layers on the interior structure.

[0041] Depending on the type of filler used, the filler layer can also block the penetration of moisture and improve the bed's resistance to liquids, thus increasing its durability.

[0042] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the intermediate structure comprises electrical heating wires and / or hydraulic temperature control lines.

[0043] This makes it possible to control the temperature of the bed, especially to heat it via the heating wires or hydraulic temperature control lines in cold ambient temperatures, or to cool it via the hydraulic temperature control lines in warm ambient temperatures.

[0044] Embedding electric heating wires in the intermediate structure enables rapid and efficient heat generation. The heating wires are preferably integrated uniformly into the intermediate structure to ensure even heat distribution. Advantageously, they can be controlled via adjustable thermostats to allow for precise temperature regulation.

[0045] In addition to the aforementioned electric heating elements, the integration of hydraulic temperature control lines offers a versatile solution for temperature regulation. These lines can be used for both heating and cooling the bed by circulating water or another fluid, thus adjusting the temperature to the user's needs. This type of temperature control is particularly suitable for countries with fluctuating climates, as it provides year-round comfort.

[0046] The temperature control systems significantly increase the comfort of the bed and help to create an optimal sleeping climate that is tailored to the individual needs of the users.

[0047] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer structure is provided to have metallic rails at its edges and / or to be mitered.

[0048] As described, the bed has a high-quality appearance in its outer structure. Therefore, it is advantageous to attach metal rails, preferably made of chrome or stainless steel, to the edges. These not only enhance the aesthetics but also protect the edges and the joints against moisture penetration.

[0049] Alternatively, the outer structure can also be mitered at the connecting edges, which allows for a precise and visually appealing joint. This also underscores the high-quality appearance of the bed.

[0050] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed is provided to have a display that can be recessed into a foot section of the bed.

[0051] The display can be advantageously designed as a television.

[0052] This functionality further enhances bed comfort by allowing multimedia content to be consumed directly from the bed. The integration of the display into the bed's design blends seamlessly into the overall aesthetic while offering a modern convenience.

[0053] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed comprises a rear wall arranged behind a headboard of the bed, with an identical external structure to the bed.

[0054] The back panel can also have an internal structure, an intermediate structure, and an external structure. In this case, the back panel does not need to be permanently attached to the wall of the room. Alternatively, the external structure can be attached directly to a wall at the head of the bed, thus permanently attaching it to the wall and defining a fixed location for the bed.

[0055] The back panel not only enhances the aesthetic concept of the bed and creates a harmonious overall picture, but it also creates a mounting surface against which the bed can be positioned flush with the wall.

[0056] According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that at least one decorative fountain is arranged in the back wall.

[0057] The decorative fountain lends a calming atmosphere to a room containing the bed according to the invention. Furthermore, it creates a relaxing soundscape and can aid in falling asleep, making this embodiment particularly suitable for users with poor sleep or difficulty falling asleep.

[0058] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed comprises at least one bedside table firmly connected to the bed, with an identical external structure to the bed.

[0059] This uniform design ensures a cohesive appearance and further emphasizes the high-quality feel of the bed. The at least one bedside table can be directly attached to the bed itself or to the headboard.

[0060] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed comprises a slatted frame, wherein the outer structure forms a tub so that the slatted frame can be placed on the tub, or wherein the tub has fastening devices on its inside for receiving the slatted frame, and wherein the tub also has at least one ventilation passage.

[0061] The outer structure of the bed thus forms a tub, i.e., the outer structure advantageously forms four walls, one each at the head and foot of the bed, and one on each side.

[0062] A slatted frame can either be placed directly on the bathtub or the bathtub has fastening devices on its inside, such as hooks or special support surfaces, onto which the slatted frame can be placed.

[0063] The slatted frame can also have one or more electric motors for automated adjustment of the slatted frame, for example the headboard or footboard.

[0064] In any case, the bathtub should ideally have at least one ventilation opening, which allows for improved air circulation under the slatted frame. This design helps prevent moisture buildup and mold, and promotes a healthy sleeping environment.

[0065] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed comprises a water mattress.

[0066] Thanks to its lightweight yet sturdy construction, the bed can also support a water mattress. The water mattress can rest, for example, on the slatted frame or on a specially designed support surface inside the tub. Reinforcing the slatted frame may be necessary.

[0067] Using a water mattress can improve the quality of a user's sleep.

[0068] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed is provided to have at least one pressure drawer.

[0069] The single push-to-open drawer offers a high-quality and aesthetically pleasing storage solution for items such as bed linens. A gentle push opens the drawer, ensuring simple and intuitive operation. The absence of a handle further enhances the bed's overall sophisticated design.

[0070] The at least one pressure drawer can be relatively small and compact, but it can also take up a large part of the bed's floor space and, for example, be the size of a typical bed box.

[0071] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the bed is provided to have an electrical interface for supplying electrical energy and / or at least one electrical socket and / or at least one light switch.

[0072] The bed can be supplied with electrical energy via the electrical interface, which is then distributed to the wall sockets and made available to other devices. In this sense, light switches and lamps controlled by light switches are also considered consumers. A slatted bed base with one or more electric motors, if present, is also considered a consumer that can be supplied with electrical energy via the electrical interface and, if applicable, a wall socket.

[0073] The at least one light switch can, for example, control a lamp specifically assigned to the bed, in particular a so-called reading lamp. Additionally or alternatively, a room lamp can also be controlled. In the latter case, the at least one light switch is preferably designed as a wireless switch, which allows control of the corresponding lamp even without a direct cable connection from the light switch to the lamp.

[0074] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the piece of furniture has a control unit which allows control of the electric heating wires and / or the hydraulic temperature control lines and / or the decorative fountain and / or the display via a user interface.

[0075] The control unit, equipped with a graphical user interface, enables centralized control of the electric heating elements, the hydraulic temperature control lines, the decorative fountain, and the display. Users of the bed can thus easily adjust its functionalities to their individual needs, for example, by setting a suitable temperature, specifying the operating time of the decorative fountain, and controlling the display as required.

[0076] The user interface can, for example, be a touchscreen. Operating the control unit via the user's smartphone is also conceivable and preferred, in which case the smartphone serves as the user interface. For this purpose, the smartphone can be paired with the control unit, for example, via Bluetooth and a corresponding app.

[0077] The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a piece of furniture according to the invention, comprising the steps Construction of an internal structure as a supporting frame and to define the external shape of the piece of furniture, application of an intermediate structure to the internal structure, and application of an outer structure made of tiles, porcelain stoneware, and / or natural stone slabs to the intermediate structure.

[0078] The method according to the invention is characterized in that the piece of furniture is manufactured as a bed.

[0079] The method according to the invention thus enables the production of the piece of furniture according to the invention and thus leads to the advantages already described.

[0080] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that individual elements of the internal structure are glued together.

[0081] This method of joining the individual elements of the internal structure is particularly suitable for Styrodur, rigid foam boards, and aerated concrete blocks. The use of adhesives specifically designed for these materials ensures a robust and durable bond between the components, contributing to the longevity and stability of the furniture.

[0082] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a fabric layer and / or a non-woven layer and / or electrical heating wires and / or hydraulic temperature control lines are bonded to the intermediate structure. These components can be easily and very reliably permanently attached to the intermediate structure by means of bonding. They thereby become an integral part of the intermediate structure.

[0083] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the inner structure is filled with putty before the intermediate structure is applied and / or that the intermediate structure is filled with putty before the outer structure is applied.

[0084] Filling with filler ensures a smooth surface and eliminates irregularities that could impair the application of the outer structure or detract from its appearance. Furthermore, filling with a suitable filler can create a moisture barrier, limiting the penetration of moisture beyond the intermediate structure.

[0085] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the outer structure is grouted after the application of the tiles, porcelain stoneware and / or natural stone slabs.

[0086] This also protects the materials from penetrating moisture. Furthermore, it can contribute to a uniform and elegant appearance of the bed.

[0087] According to a further preferred embodiment of the invention, a continuous recess is inserted into the inner structure, the intermediate structure and the outer structure at one foot end of the bed, in which a display can be recessed.

[0088] The implementation of the retractable display in the foot end of the bed requires that a precisely designed recess be provided in the various layers of the bed structure during the manufacturing process.

[0089] Therefore, the implementation of the display is advantageously considered during the bed's planning phase in order to determine the exact dimensions and positioning of the recess. It must be ensured that the recess is large enough to accommodate the display, but at the same time does not compromise the bed's structural integrity.

[0090] The invention is explained below by way of example with reference to embodiments shown in the figures.

[0091] They show: Fig. 1 An exemplary and schematic embodiment of a piece of furniture according to the invention in a perspective view from the front, Fig. 2 An exemplary and schematic representation of another possible embodiment of a piece of furniture according to the invention in a perspective view from the front, Fig. 3 The bed is shown in an exemplary and schematic way. Fig. 1 in a perspective view from the side, Fig. 4 An exemplary and schematic cross-section through the tub of the bed and Fig. 5 An exemplary and schematic embodiment of a method according to the invention for manufacturing a piece of furniture is shown in the form of a flowchart.

[0092] Identical objects, functional units, and comparable components are designated across all figures using the same reference symbols. These objects, functional units, and comparable components are identical in their technical characteristics unless explicitly or implicitly stated otherwise in the description.

[0093] Fig. 1 Figure 10 shows, by way of example and schematically, a possible embodiment of a piece of furniture 10 according to the invention in a perspective view from the front.

[0094] As can be seen, the piece of furniture 10 is designed as a bed 10, specifically as a double bed 10. An outer structure 20 of the bed 10 consists, for example, of natural stone slabs 21. The natural stone slabs 21 are mitered at their edges and joints to create a visually appealing, high-quality impression.

[0095] The outer structure 20 forms a tub 22, which has fastening devices on its inside (not shown in Fig. 1 ) for the installation of a slatted frame (also not shown in Fig. 1 ) exhibits.

[0096] To ensure ventilation of the slatted frame and a mattress placed on the slatted frame, the tub 22 also has several (in Fig. 1 (not shown) ventilation slots, which are arranged, for example, in the side walls of tub 22.

[0097] At the foot of bed 10, on the top of the rear wall of tub 22, there is also one in the Fig. 1 The recess 13 is shown closed. The recess 13 contains a display recessed within it, which can be extended from the recess 13 at the user's request.

[0098] The bed 10 also includes a back panel 11 located behind the headboard of the bed 10, which has a surface with the same natural stone slabs 21 as the bed 10. Two upholstered headrests 12, which have a leather surface, are also recessed into the back panel 11.

[0099] The bed 10 further comprises an intermediate structure 30 arranged within the outer structure 20, which consists, for example, of a fleece layer and a filler layer and also includes electric heating wires.

[0100] Within the intermediate structure 30, the bed 10 of the Fig. also includes, for example, an inner structure 40 made of Styrodur.

[0101] Since the inner structure 40 and the intermediate structure 30 are surrounded by the outer structure 20, they are shown in the representation of the Fig. 1 not visible.

[0102] Fig. 2 Figure 10 shows, by way of example and schematically, another possible embodiment of a piece of furniture 10 according to the invention in a perspective view from the front.

[0103] Bed 10 of the Fig. 2 differs from bed 10 of the Fig. 1 For example, by the presence of two decorative fountains 14, which are mounted on either side of the bed 10 in the rear wall 11. The decorative fountains 14 are operated by electric pumps which are recessed in the rear wall 11.

[0104] The gentle splashing sound of the decorative fountain 14 can help with falling asleep. Furthermore, the decorative fountain 14 also has a positive effect on the humidity in the room.

[0105] Bed 10 of the Fig. 2 differs from bed 10 of the Fig. 1 furthermore, by the presence of two bedside tables 15. The bedside tables 15 are attached on both sides of the bed 10 and are connected, for example, in the same way to the bathtub 22 and the back wall 11. They also have an identical surface with the same natural stone slabs 21 as the bed 10.

[0106] Furthermore, the bed has 10 of the Fig. 2 The rear wall 11 contains two light switches 17 and two sockets 18, which are connected via an electrical interface for supplying electrical energy (not shown in Fig. 3 ) are supplied with electrical energy.

[0107] The light switches 17 are, for example, wireless light switches 17 that can control the lighting in the room where the bed 10 is set up. Because wireless light switches 17 are used, a wired connection between the light switches 17 and the room's lighting fixtures is not required.

[0108] Fig. 3 shows, by way of example and schematically, bed 10 of the Fig. 1 in a perspective view from the side.

[0109] In the presentation of the Fig. 3 The retractable display 16 is also shown in its extended position. For example, the display 16 is designed to play entertainment programs, such as television programs or internet content.

[0110] The following can also be seen in the depiction of Fig. 3 also a pressure drawer 19, which is designed as a bed box 19 and can be operated by mechanical pressure.

[0111] Fig. 4 shows, by way of example and schematic, a cross-section through tub 22 of bed 10.

[0112] The inner structure 40, the intermediate structure 30 lying above the inner structure 40 and the outer structure 20 lying above the intermediate structure 30 can be seen.

[0113] The internal structure 40 consists, for example, of rigid foam in sheet form, with individual elements of the rigid foam being glued together to define the basic outer shape of the bed 10. Since the internal structure 40 is made of rigid foam, it is a lightweight structure 40.

[0114] The inner structure 40 is surrounded by the intermediate structure 30, which, for example, consists of several individual layers or elements. A layer of filler 31 is in direct contact with the inner structure 40, ensuring good adhesion to the subsequent fabric layer 32. The fabric layer 32 allows a certain degree of elasticity between the inner structure 40 and the outer structure 20, for example, in the case of differing thermal expansion. Hydraulic temperature control lines 33, for example, are bonded to the fabric layer 32. These lines can be used with hot water to heat the bed 10 or with cold water to cool the bed 10, as required. A further layer of filler 34 is arranged above the hydraulic temperature control lines 33. This layer seals the intermediate structure 30 and facilitates the placement of the outer structure 20.

[0115] Finally, the outer structure 20 consists, for example, of porcelain stoneware 23, the edges or joints of which are clad with metallic rails 24. The metallic rails 24 are, for example, chrome-plated rails 24.

[0116] Fig. 5 Figure 1 shows, by way of example and schematically, a possible embodiment of a method according to the invention for the manufacture of a piece of furniture 10 in the form of a flowchart.

[0117] In a first process step 101, aerated concrete blocks are initially provided to construct an internal structure 40 as a supporting frame and to define the external shape of the piece of furniture 10. The external shape is defined in such a way that the piece of furniture 10 is manufactured as a bed 10.

[0118] In step 102, the aerated concrete blocks are cut into the required shape and glued together in step 103. Already in steps 102 and 103, a recess 13 is provided at the foot end of the bed 10, which will accommodate a display 16 when the bed 10 is finished.

[0119] In step 104, the materials for applying the intermediate structure 30 to the inner structure 40 are provided. These include, for example, OSB boards, filler, and electric heating wires.

[0120] In step 105, the OSB panels are attached to the inner structure 40, for example by gluing. It is ensured that the recess 13 in the foot end of the bed 10 remains accessible.

[0121] In step 106, the electric heating wires are arranged on the OSB boards, for example also by means of gluing.

[0122] In the following step 107, the OSB boards and the electrical heating wires glued to them are covered with filler. The recess 13 is also left clear in this step.

[0123] In step 108, the materials for applying the outer structure 20 made of tiles to the intermediate structure 30 are provided.

[0124] In step 109, the tiles are cut into the required shape, with the edges being cut at a miter, for example.

[0125] Finally, in step 110, the tiles are glued onto the intermediate structure 30 and form the outer structure 20, while again the recess 13 is left free.

[0126] In step 111, the tiles are grouted.

[0127] In step 112, a mechanism for lowering and extending the display 16 in the recess 13 is arranged.

[0128] Finally, in step 113, the display 16 is arranged to be retractable and extendable in the recess 13. Reference symbol list
