[Structure] The upper surface portion 7 of the apron 1, including the portion that has entered the lower side of the tub 9, has a downward slope of 3 to 10 ° from the edge 7a on the bathtub 6 side to the edge 7b on the washroom side. . [Effect] The upper surface of the apron is prevented from slipping, and the user can sit on the upper surface of the apron or rest his palm. Further, the drainage property of the upper surface of the apron is remarkably good, and the generation of mold and the like is prevented.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an apron installation structure, and more particularly to an apron installation structure with an improved configuration of the upper surface of the apron.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The bathroom apron has a vertical surface portion facing the washing area and an upper surface portion extending from the upper end of the vertical surface portion toward the bathtub. The bathtub is installed so that the tabs of the bathtub cover the upper edge of the apron on the bathtub-side edge.

In order to improve the drainage of the upper surface of the apron, it is known that the upper surface of the apron is made to have a downward slope toward the washing place, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 5-11885.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In the above conventional apron installation structure, since the angle of the downward slope toward the washing area on the top of the apron is steep, it is easy to slip when the top of the apron is seated or the palm is placed. In addition, it was difficult to put a finger on the top of the apron when entering or leaving the bathtub.

In addition, since the lower side of the tub of the bathtub is in a horizontal state without a slope, if water enters from the lower side of the tub, the entered water cannot be removed and causes mold.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, provide apron installation structure that prevents slippage of the upper surface of the apron when sitting down, and further improves drainage under the tab. It is in.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The apron installation structure of the present invention is an apron installation structure having a vertical surface portion facing the washing area and an upper surface portion extending from the upper end of the vertical surface portion toward the bathtub side. In an apron installation structure in which a bathtub tab covers the upper edge of the bathtub, the upper surface of the apron, including the part that goes under the tab, extends from the bathtub edge to the washroom edge. It is characterized by a downward slope of 3 to 10 °.

[0008]

[Action]

 In the apron installation structure of the present invention, the upper part of the apron, including the part that is inserted under the tub, has a downward slope of 3 to 10 ° from the edge on the bathtub side to the edge on the washroom side. As a result, it prevents slippage when seated on the top of the apron. In addition, the water draining property of the upper surface of the apron is significantly improved.

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing an apron installation structure according to an embodiment of the present invention, showing a state in which the apron is installed in a bathtub.

The apron 1 is composed of a frame 2, a cement-based base plate 3 and tiles 4. That is, the apron 1 comprises a cement-based base plate 3 fixedly integrated on the front side 2a of a frame 2 made of aluminum square pipe or the like with an adhesive and screws. The tile 4 is attached to the front surface by applying an adhesive or mortar.

The apron 1 has a vertical surface portion 5 facing the washing area and an upper surface portion 7 extending from the upper end of the vertical surface portion 5 toward the bath 6 side. A tab 9 of the bath 6 is covered on an upper side of an edge of the upper surface 7 of the apron 1 on the bath side. A caulking 8 is provided at an intersection corner between the tab 9 and the upper surface portion 7.

The upper surface portion 7 of the apron 1, including the portion that has entered the lower side of the tub 9, has a downward slope of 3 to 10 ° from the bath-side edge 7 a to the wash-side edge 7 b. .

The frame 2 on the upper surface portion 7 of the apron 1 is connected by a screw 11 to a mounting fitting 10 fixed to the bathtub 6 or the wall surface of the unit bathroom. The lower end 5b of the vertical surface portion 5 of the apron 1 and the waterproof pan 12 are connected via a mounting bracket 13.

In the apron installation structure configured in this manner, the slope of the apron 1 is 3 to 10 degrees from the edge 7a on the bathtub side to the edge 7b on the washroom side. Even if one sits on the upper surface portion 7 or puts a palm on it, it does not slip.

Further, it is possible to cover the end 7b of the upper surface portion 7 of the apron 1 with a finger when entering or leaving the bathtub 6.

In addition, even if the caulk 8 is broken and water may enter the lower side of the tub 9, the intruded water easily flows down to the washing place side along the slope of the upper surface portion 7. Therefore, no mold or the like is generated on the lower surface 7 of the tab 9.

In the example of the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, a water return wall 14 may be provided on the end side 7 a of the upper surface portion 7 of the apron 1. By doing so, the water that has entered the lower side of the tab 9 is prevented from further entering the bathtub side from the end side 7a, and the drainage property is further improved.

[0018]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, in the apron installation structure of the present invention, the top part of the apron has a gentle downward slope of 3 to 10 ° from the bathtub side edge to the washroom side edge, so slippage is prevented. , You can safely sit or rest your palm on the top of the apron.

Further, the drainage property of the upper surface of the apron is remarkably good, and the generation of mold and the like is prevented.
