Definitions

  • the invention relates to a mounting frame according to the preamble of independent claim 1.
  • a mounting frame of this type has become known in the prior art from the "Manual for Sanitary Planners", edition 1987, page 11.17 of the Geberit company. Since the sanitary appliances to be fastened with them and in particular the large number of different urinal types differ greatly, several sizes of this mounting frame had to be kept in stock until now. In addition, it had to be ensured that the appropriate mounting frame was available at the installation site.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a mounting frame of the type mentioned, which can be used as universally as possible for the pre-wall installation of different sanitary appliances and urinals.
  • the object is achieved by the invention according to claim 1.
  • the hole pattern is preferably designed such that a pair of holes is adapted to a common sanitary appliance. To position the fasteners, it is therefore sufficient to determine the suitable pair of holes, which is very simple on the basis of markings or a plan.
  • the means for fastening the sanitary apparatus each have a base nut which is detachably inserted into a hole in a fastening plate, then very simple installation is possible essentially without tools.
  • An extraordinarily stable fastening of the sanitary apparatus results when the fastening plate is connected to a bow and at least one inwardly directed side bow of the frame according to a development of the invention, and the fastening plate has a rear bow which is connected to a rear wall of the frame. It can also be used to install heavy and heavy duty santara equipment.
  • the flushing pipe is attached to the frame in a height-adjustable manner with a predetermined raster image.
  • the raster image for fastening the flushing pipe is preferably adapted to the hole pattern of the fastening plate.
  • a common sanitary apparatus thus corresponds to a locking position of the flushing pipe and a pair of holes in the fastening plate or the fastening plates.
  • a corresponding locking image for height-adjustable adjustment is also preferred the drain pipe or drain bend provided.
  • the mounting frame according to the invention can thus be set very easily and essentially without tools on the usual sanitary appliances and can therefore be used largely universally.
  • the mounting frame shown in FIG. 1 has a frame 20 made of galvanized sheet metal with two side walls 20b, a bottom 20e and a rear wall 20c. On the side walls 20b, a plurality of side supports 13 are attached, on which angled connecting parts 16 are attached with a bolt 17 for direct fastening of the mounting frame to a building wall. If the mounting frame is attached to mounting rails of an installation kit, so are here two fastening parts 14 and 15 are provided.
  • a fastening rail 6 is attached to the inside of the rear wall 20c and extends essentially over the entire height of the rear wall 20c.
  • This mounting rail 6 has a T-shaped punch 3, in which a mounting plate 4 on the back of a flushing pipe 2 is adjustable in height.
  • the fastening rail 6 has a plurality of latching cams 5 in a predefined latching pattern.
  • the mounting plate 4 also has side wings 4c, each of which has a recess 4a on the rear side, in which the locking cams 5 can engage.
  • the locking pattern of the cams 5 is adapted to the relevant dimensions of the sanitary appliances to be fastened.
  • the flushing pipe 2 with the mounting plate 4 is moved in height until the suitable pair of locking cams locks into place.
  • a box 1 with a magnetic flush valve and possibly proximity electronics is arranged on the flush pipe 2 at the top. This box 1 can be firmly connected to the rear wall 20c. It is also conceivable that this box 1 can be adjusted in height together with the flushing pipe 2.
  • the drain elbow 12 is preferably adjustable in height and lockable like the flushing pipe 2.
  • two mirror-symmetrical plates 7 and two threaded bolts 10 are detachably fastened thereon.
  • the threaded bolts 10 correspond to two receiving openings on the sanitary apparatus, into which these threaded bolts are inserted and fastened by means of nuts and cover sleeves and washers.
  • the fastening of such threaded bolts 10 or dowels to a sanitary appliance is generally known.
  • these base nuts 11 For fastening the threaded bolts 10 to the frame 20 are placed on these base nuts 11, which are detachably inserted and locked in rectangular holes in the mounting plates 7.
  • these base nuts for example made of suitable plastic, have resilient locking tongues 11a with lateral grooves 11e, into which edges of the holes 9 engage in a latching manner.
  • a threaded bore 11c is provided on a base 11b, into which the threaded bolt 10 is screwed.
  • the base nut 11 can also be sprayed onto the threaded bolt 10.
  • a collar 11d is formed on the base 11b, on which the base nut 11 can be gripped and, if necessary, loosened again.
  • the two mounting plates 7 each have a rear bend 8, which is welded to the mounting rail 6, for example.
  • the fastening plate 7 are also fastened to an overhang 20d of the bottom 20e and in each case to an inwardly turned side flap 20a.
  • the holes 9 of the mounting plates 7 are arranged in a predetermined and two-dimensional locking image.
  • This locking pattern corresponds to the sanitary appliances or urinal types that are to be attached to the mounting frame.
  • the threaded bolts with the base nuts 11 are inserted into one or the other pair of holes.
  • the locking pattern of the holes 9 and the locking patterns of the locking cams 5 and those of the drain elbow 12 are again matched to one another in accordance with the sanitary appliances to be fastened.
  • the discharge elbow can be infinitely adjusted in height.
  • a mounting frame was thus realized that not only the sanitary takes technical requirements including very simple assembly into account in an excellent manner, but which is inexpensive and reliable due to its simple feasibility.
