Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a novel sanitary unit, preferably with a device for fully automatic cleaning of the toilet bowl, which is particularly suitable for installation in public sanitary units.
  • DE-OS 22 63 946 deals with a sanitary facility which consists of at least two sanitary facilities, e.g. a toilet and a sink.
  • the toilet bowl is cleaned by swiveling it underneath the washbasin.
  • liquid with a certain pressure is pressed into the toilet bowl via spray heads and cleaned in this way.
  • a sanitary cell is known from European patent application 0 199 682, which consists of a sanitary room with sanitary facilities and a technical room.
  • the partition between these two rooms consists of an immovable and movable part.
  • On the movable part two toilet bowls are attached, which are mounted opposite one another with their backs like mirrors.
  • the movable part is rotatable about a vertical axis, so that it is possible to rotate each toilet bowl from the user position to a cleaning position in the equipment room.
  • a sanitary cell with an automatic cleaning device for the toilet bowl in which a technical room with the cleaning devices for the toilet bowl located therein is arranged to the side of the user room. Another technical room is built below the floor of the sanitary room.
  • a wall section of the sanitary room is designed as a pivotable element about a horizontal axis.
  • a toilet bowl is arranged on each side of the wall element. This ensures that there is always a toilet bowl in the user room, while the second in the technical room is subjected to cleaning.
  • the toilet bowls are arranged so that the bowl in the equipment room has its opening facing downwards and the bowl in the sanitary room has its opening facing upwards.
  • the floors of the sanitary room and the technical room are provided with openings at least in the area below the toilet bowls, so that the toilet bowls can be pivoted from the technical room through the technical room below the sanitary cell into the sanitary room.
  • a completely different system is the device described in European patent application 0035471. It is a toilet system, in which two bowls are provided within a housing, which are attached to an inclined shaft. The toilet bowls attached to this mirror image can be swiveled around this shaft. The result is that the bowl, which is initially at the top, lies below after the rotation in order to be subjected to cleaning there.
  • the bowls used in European patent application 0035471 are not commercially available, but rather specially adapted bowls. In the side view, they have a triangular shape. So that after pivoting the lower bowl with its opening is not in the horizontal plane, that is pointing downwards, but in a vertical plane, i.e. pointing to the side. However, optimal cleaning cannot be achieved in this position.
  • the opening of the drain pipe does not rotate in the cleaning tract, so that cleaning never takes place here. So you may have to clean it manually. The result is that the sanitary room is closed to visitors during the post-cleaning phase.
  • the movable side walls which adjoin the housing of the toilet roll or the housing of the siphon, are also susceptible to contamination. These adjoining surfaces run the risk of dirt particles getting stuck there and leading to unsanitary conditions.
  • a system is known from European patent application 87 10644 in which a bowl is folded back into a cleaning container. The cleaning is carried out by the cleaning nozzles arranged there. When folded, the excrement can fall through the drain pipe.
  • the toilet bowl is folded back against a wall and cleaned in this position by means of nozzles.
  • EP 242 274 There it is a toilet bowl that can be folded into a wall, from which the excrement falls out and which is cleaned.
  • the object of the invention is to create a sanitary unit which does not have the aforementioned disadvantages.
  • a sanitary unit which is characterized by a functional unit consisting of a room-shaped, substantially vertical urinal wall, an integrated in the urinal room, foldable in this toilet bowl and a closing the urinal room upward.
  • a functional unit consisting of a room-shaped, substantially vertical urinal wall, an integrated in the urinal room, foldable in this toilet bowl and a closing the urinal room upward.
  • the sanitary unit is integrated in a wall and can emerge from it towards the user.
  • the toilet bowl closes the urinal space odor-tight and moisture-proof in the folded state.
  • the urinal is covered by the sink from above.
  • the sanitary unit When entering the toilet room, the sanitary unit is closed and the elements of the urinal and toilet are not visible.
  • the room is free in front of the visitor and they can wash their hands, style their hair or change the baby, for example, without visual interference from the urinal and toilet.
  • Folding the toilet bowl has two other advantages: The excrement slides down into the drain by itself and the toilet bowl, including the seat, is easy to clean with low fluid consumption.
  • nozzles are arranged in the urinal wall towards the toilet bowl, which are advantageously designed as high-pressure nozzles.
  • pressures of around 60 bar up to 80% water can be saved compared to conventional toilet bowl cleaning. In this way, the next visitor will always find a hygienically perfect and clean toilet.
  • care is taken to ensure that the toilet bowl folds into the column after use and that the urinal and toilet bowl are cleaned. A complete cleaning of the toilet once a day is sufficient.
  • the urinal space determining the horizontal cross section of the sanitary unit can itself be of any shape. However, it has proven structurally particularly advantageous to design the sanitary unit in a column-like manner, i.e. to be provided with a round cross section.
  • the column is preferably arranged in an opening in the wall such that it partially protrudes from the wall.
  • the column unit can be arranged as a free-standing element in a room. However, it can also be designed as a half-column, possibly with an arc-shaped cross section, which protrudes from the wall or is centered on the wall. When the toilet bowl was folded in, only the sink would be visible.
  • a bidet is arranged on the underside of the toilet bowl. This can be folded out with the toilet bowl folded. For cleaning, nozzles are arranged on the underside of the toilet bowl, which come into action after the bidet has been closed.
  • All elements such as the sink, toilet bowl, urinal wall and bidet, have a common drain to the sewage tank arranged under the column or in the bottom of the column, so that - as already described - the piping is largely minimized.
  • a collecting container is provided for the water flowing out of the wash basin so that it can be used again for cleaning the urinal, toilet bowl and bidet.
  • the fold-out toilet bowl is part of the sanitary unit.
  • the foldable toilet bowl is designed to be open in the part of the wall that is at the bottom in the folded state. This makes it easier for the excrement to slide out and simplifies cleaning. By folding in the toilet bowl and the water-saving nozzle flush, it is not necessary to use a water flood to clean the toilet bowl.
  • the sanitary unit is therefore particularly suitable for the use of alternative disposal methods, such as biological disposal, composting, decomposition. No channel connection is required.
  • the toilet bowl is height adjustable. This has the advantages that the user can adjust the height of the seat individually.
  • the setting can also be done so that the toilet can be used in a crouched position without touching the seat.
  • the toilet bowl is provided with two differently sized seat openings, which are arranged one behind the other and of which the smaller one is located at the front. This creates a toilet that can be used by adults and small children in the same convenient way. There is no longer a need to hold small children so that they do not fall into the toilet bowl. Small children can use the toilet according to the invention, in particular when it is height-adjustable, as proposed according to the invention, like adults.
  • the toilet bowl is pointed in the area of the small opening, with outer walls that run at an angle between 10 ° and 40 °, preferably 20 °, to one another.
  • the outer walls are concavely curved inwards on both sides. This leads to healthier emptying and prevents constipation.
  • the sanitary unit acc. 1 consists of a urinal wall 1, a toilet bowl 3 which can be folded into the urinal room 2 and a hand wash basin 4 which closes the urinal room 2 upwards.
  • the sanitary unit consisting of the elements mentioned is integrated into a wall 5 which extends on both sides of the sanitary unit .
  • the toilet bowl 3 is closed in the direction of arrow 6 and closes the urinal room odor and moisture-proof.
  • the movement of the Toilet bowl 3 takes place about the axis 7.
  • the sealing elements are attached to the outside of the toilet bowl 3 and consist for example of rubber lips, which are not shown.
  • a number of cleaning nozzles 8 are fitted in the urinal wall 1. These are directed towards the raised toilet bowl 3, but are also designed to clean the urinal wall.
  • the cleaning nozzles 8 are preferably designed as high-pressure nozzles.
  • the sanitary unit is columnar. 3, the column 9 has a circular cross section. With 10 the drain of the wash basin 4 is designated, with 11 a mirror arranged above the wash basin 4. 12 is a soap dish and 13 is a toilet paper holder.
  • the special shape of the toilet bowl can be seen in Fig. 3. This has a small seat opening 23 and a large seat opening 24.
