Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a swimming pool access panel, and more specifically, it is installed between the changing room and the pool so that people can wash their bodies and feet when entering and exiting the pool. This relates to a panel that can be extended out, and its purpose is to allow the use of a shower area and foot washing area at the same time by going up and down the steps used to enter and exit the pool, and to provide a simple space outside the pool. It is an object of the present invention to provide a useful access panel that can be connected and installed in an integrated manner during work.

The basic structure of the present invention is that the main body of the entrance/exit panel is integrally formed in the shape of a staircase, a step part for raising and lowering is provided, and a hook part is formed on the topmost step part to be fitted and engaged with the deck part around the pool. In addition, a shower area and a foot washing area are formed in the other steps so that the shower area and the foot washing area can be used when entering and exiting the pool, and this is an example of its implementation. will be explained based on the drawings.

The entrance/exit panel main body A is integrally formed in a step-like manner using FRP, synthetic resin, etc., and is used for access into and out of the pool B, that is, a deck portion B ₁ on the upper peripheral surface of the pool B.
A step part a for going up and down is provided, and a non-slip part 1 is engraved and formed on the step part a as necessary. Pool B deck club
A hook part 2 is provided which is fitted into and connected to the pool _B1 , and the other step part a is provided with a shower place 3 and a foot washing place 4, which are used when entering and exiting the pool B, respectively.

The hook part 2 is to be removably attached to the deck part _B1 of the pool B and connected to the outside of the pool body B.The hook part 2 is formed in a front type that spans the entire widthwise length of the panel body A, and is attached to the deck part B1 of the pool B. The part B ₁ is fitted and engaged in a covering manner between the inner circumferential wall B ₂ and the outer circumferential wall B ₃ which are connected to each other via the deck part B ₁ .

The shower area 3 is a place where swimmers wash (wet) their bodies when entering and exiting pool B,
A gate-shaped shower pipe 4 is installed upright on the lowest (first stage) step part a3, and the step part a3
A water receiving part 5 is recessed approximately in the center of the shower pipe 4.
Care has been taken to ensure that the water sprayed from each sprinkler head and discharge hole does not flow outside. Reference numeral 6 denotes a sloped section that is gently connected to the ground from the edge of the opening of the water receiving part 5, and is designed to prevent tripping when stepping into the water receiving part 5 of the shower field 3. .

Various installation structures for the shower pipe 4 in the shower field 3 can be considered, but in the present invention, it is constructed so that it can be attached and detached.

The installation structure of the present invention has locking flanges 7 on the outside of the lower end of the vertical pipe portion 4a on both the left and right sides of the shower pipe 4.
An O-ring (sealing material) 8 is fitted and fitted at an appropriate interval on the outside of the lower part of the vertical pipe portion 4a that can protrude downward from the locking flange 7.

On the other hand, installation holes 9 for the shower pipes 4 are opened on both sides of the water receiving part 5 of the step part a3 which becomes the shower field 3, and the installation tube 10 is inserted into the installation hole 9 with a washer 1.
1 and a nut 12 in a penetrating manner. This installation tube 10 is designed to allow the lower part of the vertical tube part 4a to be freely inserted and removed, and has a fixed flange 10a protruding therefrom, and a screw thread 13 is carved on the outside of the upper part, so that it can be rotatably mounted on the vertical tube part 4a. Placed bag nut 1
4 are screwed together and the shower pipe 4 is removably attached to the shower station 3 (FIG. 4).

Furthermore, to supply water into the shower pipe 4, a supply port pipe 16 is connected to one of the installation tubes 10 protruding from the back surface of the shower place 3 via a substantially L-shaped connecting pipe 15, and this supply port pipe The tip of 16,
It is installed and fixed with nuts 18 that protrude through the covering side plates 17 that are vertically installed on both sides of the panel main body A,
A supply hose 19 connected to a faucet is connected to a projecting supply port pipe 16 via a mounting fitting 20 to supply water. Reference numeral 21 designates an operating valve installed in the vertical pipe section 4a on the side to which the supply hose 19 is connected, and is used to take a shower by operating this operating valve 21. Reference numeral 22 indicates the vertical pipe section 4 on the opposite side.
A drain valve 22 is installed in the pipe a, and this drain valve 22 is opened to drain water remaining in the shower pipe 4 after use.

Note that the structure for attaching and detaching the shower tube 4 is not limited to the structure described above, and may be the structure shown in FIG. 5 or another structure.

The foot-washing area 4 is a place for washing your feet when entering and exiting the pool B. In the drawing, a foot-washing tank 23 is recessed in the second step part a2, and the foot-washing area 4 is a place where you wash your feet when entering and exiting the pool B. A drain pipe 25 equipped with a drain valve 24 is connected to the bottom, and when the water in the tank 23 becomes dirty, the drain valve 24 is opened to replace the water with fresh water.

Thus, the ingress/egress step of the present invention can be easily connected to the outside of the pool B, and the shower area 3 and foot washing area 4 can be used when entering and exiting the pool B.

In the above embodiment, the shower station 3 is provided in the first (lowermost) step a3, and the foot washing area 4 is provided in the second step a2. It is optional to provide the washing area 4 at the first step (lowermost step) a3 and the shower area 3 at the second step a2. Also, the deck portion B ₁ of the pool B where the hook portion 2 of the panel body A is fitted and engaged.
A recessed part 26 is formed in steps on the inner peripheral wall _B2 to prevent the panel main body A from shifting laterally, and the hook part 2 is fitted into and engaged with the recessed part 26 to connect the panel main body A. I am trying to set it up.

As described above, the present invention includes integrally forming the main body of the entrance/exit panel in the form of a staircase, providing a step section for ascending and descending, forming a hook section that is fitted and engaged with the topmost step section, and a shower section attached to the other step sections. Since the structure is such that a shower area and a foot washing area are respectively formed, the shower area and the foot washing area can be used when going up and down the elevating step part when going in and out of the pool, which is advantageous.

Moreover, it can be connected and installed on the outside of the pool by a simple operation such as fitting and engaging the hook part into the deck part of the pool.

Thus, the intended purpose can be achieved.
