Abstract (en)

A shower base (1) is provided, which consists of inflatable sanitary equipment defining a main plane (1a) and a longitudinal axis (1b) and comprising side edges (2) which are skewed with respect to the main plane (1a), a supporting surface (3) parallel to the main plane (1a), contained within the side edges (2) and comprising a plurality of inner chambers (30), wherein the inner chambers (30) comprise at least a first valve (31), each of the pneumatic type and adapted to regulate the passage of air between the inner chamber (30) and the outside, wherein the shower base (1) comprises at least a second valve (4) adapted to regulate the passage of fluid between the supporting surface (3) and the outside, wherein the inner chambers (30) extend along the supporting surface (3) so as to vary the inclination of the supporting surface (30) in a continuous manner along the longitudinal direction (1b) and to channel a fluid along a second plane (3a) which is skewed with respect to the main plane (1a) defined by the supporting surface (3), wherein the supporting surface (3) comprises a plurality of channels (31) extending along the second plane (3a) along the longitudinal direction (1b) on the supporting surface (3) and each connected to a drain hole (32) arranged at the straight line defined by the incidence of the planes (1a,3a), and wherein the drain holes (32) are in fluidic through connection with the second valve (4).
