Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention is used for children's swimming pools for kindergarten and nursery school children;
More specifically, the present invention relates to a pool for children where children can bathe while playing.

[Prior art and its problems] Today, various kinds of children's pools are in widespread use. However, these pools are generally smaller versions of adult pools, and are not satisfactory as play facilities for kindergarten and nursery school children who are just playing around.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a toddler pool that can be meaningfully used by kindergarten and nursery school children.

[Technical measures] The technical measures taken to solve the above purpose are:
A slope portion having a sliding surface and a non-slip lifting slope adjacent to each other is integrally formed on a part of the opening edge of the pool body in a downwardly sloping shape, and a shallow bottom is formed at the lower end of the slope portion over the entire width of the slope portion. In addition to an integrated water tank for washing feet, the pool itself,
The slope portion has an apron surface extending continuously from the outer periphery of the water tank, and the apron surface portion of the water tank has a protruding footrest surface at its middle and high part so as to widen the distance between it and the tank wall of the water tank. That's true.

[Effects] The effects of the technical means of the present invention are as follows.

(1) Using a non-slip lifting slope, kindergarten and nursery school children climb to the top of the slope as if climbing a small mountain or slope, enter the pool body, and play in the water.

(2) The slide surface provided adjacent to the non-slip lifting slope is used as a so-called sliding platform for kindergarten and nursery school children to slide down to the water tank that also serves as a footwash.

(3) The footrest surface formed at the mid-high portion of the apron surface of the water reservoir lowers the height of straddling when entering the water tank by straddling the apron surface of the water tank.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

The children's pool of the present invention includes a pool body A, a slope part B connected to the pool body A in a downwardly sloping manner from the opening edge of the pool body A, and a shallow water tank C provided at the lower end of the slope part B, which also serves as a foot bath. The pool body A, the slope part B, the apron surface D on the outer periphery of the foot-washing tank C, and the footrest surface _c1 of the apron surface D on the outer periphery of the foot-washing tank C are integrally molded with FRP synthetic resin. It is.

The pool body A should be deep enough for small children to enter.
A step ₁ is formed in the middle of the tank wall a ₁ on the side of the slope part B, and a landing 2 is provided at the upper end to connect the slope part B.

The slope part B has a slide surface b ₁ and a non-slip lifting slope b ₂ adjacent to each other, and the center is the slide surface b ₁
The slope part B is connected to the landing ₂ of the pool body A and is sloped downward, and the slope part B is provided with a slope part B 2 at the lower end over the entire width of the slope part B. Water tank C for foot washing
form.

The water tank C, which is also used for foot washing, has a shallow bottom of about 100 mm to 150 mm, and is recessed continuously at the lower end of the slope part B, and has a non-slip surface C on the bottom of the tank, and its apron surface D. A running surface _c1 is formed on the surface.

The slide surface B ₁ has an inclined surface with its upper end connected to the landing ₂ and its lower end connected to the water tank C, which is also used for foot washing. It is formed in a mirror-like shape and allows sliding down from the pool body A to a water tank C which is also used for foot washing, and has the function of arousing the curiosity of kindergarten children and encouraging them to play.

The non-slip lifting slope b ₂ is provided on both sides of the slide surface b ₁ and has a specified anti-slip surface, and a grip bar 4 is provided on the outside of the slope portion B.
The device is equipped with a water bath, which can be held in the hand as if climbing a slope, and has the function of training the legs and lower back.

Note that it is of course optional to form the anti-slip lifting slope _b2 on one half and the slide surface _b1 on the other half.

The footrest surface c ₁ is curved outward as it goes downward so as to widen the space between it and the tank wall c ₃ of the water tank C at the middle and high part of the apron surface D of the water tank C which is also used for foot washing. It is formed along the tip of the access mat 3 which is placed on the drainboard 5 which is laid on the ground next to the entrance of the classroom so that one can go directly out of the classroom and take a bath, as shown in Figure 4. When entering the water tank C which is also used for foot washing, the user can step over the apron surface D from a position higher than the drainboard 5.

Therefore, when using the children's pool of the present invention, after washing your feet in the water tank C that also serves as a foot wash, use the grip bar 4 to climb up the slope. Climb up to landing ₂ of pool body A by crawling or walking using b 2 and bathe using step 1, or climb up to landing ₂ using non-slip lifting slope b 2 and slide. side b ₁
Play using. When exiting the bath, the user similarly holds the grip bar 4 in his hand and washes his feet in the water tank C that also serves as a foot wash while walking down a slope.

Further, as shown in the figure, the pool body A is formed with a water return surface portion a ₂ , a storage surface portion a ₃ , a grip portion a ₄ , and a support opening a ₅ .

The water return surface part _A2 is formed by raising the pool tank wall _A1 excluding the slope part B side, and prevents bath water from overflowing from the pool tank wall _A1 excluding the slope part B side of the pool body A. do the work.

The grip part _a4 is formed into an upwardly tapered shape at the upper end of the water return surface part _a2 , and can be grasped by the child's hand when bathing.

The storage surface part _a3 is formed by extending outward from the upper end of the water return surface part _a2 via the grip part _a4 so that small items such as toys can be placed thereon, and has a water return shape or a concave step shape. Alternatively, the shape may be arbitrary, such as downwardly curved as shown in the figure.

The attendant frontage _a5 is designed so that the attendant, such as a teacher or daycare worker, can kneel down and lean out at a desired position on the upper edge of the pool body _A , that is, on the outside of the storage surface part a3, to the side of the attendant. Form a recess with a length slightly longer than the width. As shown in the figure, the attendant frontage _a5 may be arranged as a curved surface at the boundary between the lower surface and the apron surface _c2 so that the attendant can take a comfortable posture.

It goes without saying that water is supplied to the pool body A and the water storage tank C, which is also used for foot washing, by any desired means such as a tap water supply, and a drain port is provided and a drain pipe is connected thereto. Furthermore, it is optional to apply anti-slip surfaces to the bottom surface of the pool body A, the bottom surface of the water tank C used for washing feet, the steps 1, and the landings 2.

[Effects of the invention] Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it has the following advantages.

In addition to bathing, it is equipped with a non-slip lifting slope that forces kindergarten and nursery school children into a posture similar to climbing a small mountain or slope, and a sliding surface as a means of play, making it universally usable. In addition to this, it is possible to provide a toddler pool that can be meaningfully used as a play facility by kindergarten children and nursery school children who are having fun.

A footrest surface is formed on the mid-height part of the apron surface of the water tank that also serves as a foot wash, so the height of stepping into the water tank is low, allowing the user to step into the water tank in a comfortable posture.
