[0001] The present invention relates to a prefabricated bathroom which has been manufactured
by means of box-shaped wall elements, and a method for the manufacture of such a bathroom.
Background of the invention
[0002] In the field of manufacture of prefabricated bathrooms/bath cabins it has been a
customary manufacturing method to build walls made of steel cassettes which afterwards
are being provided with gypsum boards on the outside and tiles on the inside. The
gypsum boards on the outside serves the purpose of stiffening the construction as
well as of insulating the bathroom. A bathroom which has been designed in this way
is however relatively heavy and the mounting of the inner tile covering is very labor
heavy and accordingly expensive to carry out.
Brief description of the invention
[0003] It is an objective of the present invention to provide a bathroom and a method for
the manufacture of such a bathroom which overcomes the above-mentioned disadvantages
of the prior art within this technical field.
[0004] The prefabricated bathroom according to the invention is suitable for being manufactured
at a production site, whereafter the bathroom in almost a completely assembled state
can be transported to a building into which the bathroom easily can be arranged. Subsequently,
at the site of the building, only sanitary installations and electricity need be coupled
to the bathroom.
[0005] The present invention relates to a prefabricated bathroom wherein the walls and the
ceiling has been manufactured by means of box-shaped elements, which are closed on
the side facing the bathroom and which are open on the side facing away from the bathroom,
wherein the elements on the side facing the bathroom are being covered with gypsum
boards.
[0006] By applying gypsum boards to the inner surfaces of the bathroom is achieved that
these surfaces may be applied with paint. Accordingly, expenses to mounting of tiles
can be saved and the weight of the cabin may at the same time be reduced. Using box-shaped
elements ensures that all or at least a major part of the installations, inter alia
in the form of wires and pipes, may be hidden in walls and ceiling.
[0007] In an embodiment of the invention, the prefabricated bathroom is being provided with
a floor, such as a concrete floor.
[0008] In an embodiment of the invention, the floor of the prefabricated bathroom is being
covered with a covering, such as tiles or clinker tiles or a covering in the form
of a polymer or a composite material, such as vinyl.
[0009] Hereby is achieved a surface of the floor which has an aesthetic appearance, and
which moreover is durable and easy to clean.
[0010] In an embodiment of the invention, the prefabricated bathroom comprises a primary
bottom frame, wherein the primary bottom frame is configured for supporting the box-shaped
elements and optionally also the floor.
[0011] The floor may suitable be manufactured by arranging, within the primary bottom frame,
an armament, of e.g. steel, whereafter the inner of the primary bottom frame including
this armament, is filled with concrete. After the curing of the concrete a sturdy
floor is obtained.
[0012] In an embodiment of the invention, the prefabricated bathroom comprises one or more
lifting brackets, such as 2 or more lifting brackets, for example 3 or more lifting
brackets, for example 4 or more lifting brackets, such as 5 or more lifting brackets,
such as 6 or more lifting brackets.
[0013] Hereby easy transport from the manufacturing site of the bathroom to the site of
installation in a building is assured.
[0014] In an embodiment of the invention, the prefabricated bathroom is provided with sanitary
installations in the form of one or more of the following types: sink, shower, bathtub,
toilet, drain.
[0015] In an embodiment of the invention, the prefabricated bathroom further comprises,
in respect of one or more specific types of sanitary installations, a water supply
conduit and/or a water drain conduit to/from that specific type of sanitary installation,
wherein that water supply conduit and/or water drain conduit extend(s) between that
specific type of sanitary installation and that side of one of the box-shaped elements
facing away from the interior of the bathroom.
[0016] In these two embodiments it is assured that the prefabricated bathroom will be prefabricated
to an optimum degree, which implies that a minimum of installation is required, once
the bathroom has been arranged in the desired building.
[0017] In an embodiment of the prefabricated bathroom the gypsum boards comprise fiber gypsum,
such as fiber gypsum comprising a compressed composite of gypsum and paper fibers.
[0018] In an embodiment of the prefabricated bathroom according to the invention, the gypsum
boards of fiber gypsum comprises a compressed composite of gypsum and paper fibers,
wherein the content of paper fibers is 0.5 - 50 % or more, such as 1 - 45 %, for example
2 - 40 %, such as 5 - 35 % for example 10 - 30 %, such as 12 - 25 % or 15 - 20 %.
[0019] These materials have proven beneficial in that these materials can be used as an
inner wall of the bathroom without the necessity for doing any filling/fairing prior
to painting of these gypsum boards. As the gypsum boards only require painting, optionally
including a prior application of felt cloth, a fast and cost-efficient production
of a prefabricated bathroom is assured.
[0020] In an embodiment of the invention the bathroom additionally comprises a secondary
bottom frame, wherein said secondary bottom frame extends from one of the box-shaped
elements, at a lower part thereof and from the side thereof facing away from the interior
of the bathroom, said secondary bottom frame thereby defines a shaft area.
[0021] In this embodiment the secondary bottom frame extends from the primary bottom frame
of the prefabricated bathroom at the level thereof.
[0022] As with the primary bottom frame, also the secondary bottom frame may comprise one
or more lifting brackets.
[0023] Within the scope of the present invention the term "primary bottom frame" may be
construed to mean a bottom frame which essentially is being arranged under the interior
of the prefabricated bathroom. Within the scope of the present invention the term
"secondary bottom frame" may be construed to mean a bottom frame which in a horizontal
plane is arranged in a displaced position in relation to the interior of the prefabricated
bathroom.
[0024] In the event that the prefabricated bathroom solely comprises a bottom frame having
an extension corresponding to the interior of the bathroom this bottom frame may merely
be denoted "bottom frame" without the prefix "primary".
[0025] In an embodiment the secondary bottom frame may have an essentially rectangular shape
with an outer width and an outer length, wherein the outer width and the outer length,
respectively, independently are having dimensions selected from the range of 40 -
400 cm, such as 50 - 375 cm, for example 75 - 350 cm, such as 100 - 325 cm, for example
125 - 300 cm, such as 150 - 275 cm, such as 175 - 250 cm or 200 - 225 cm.
[0026] Providing the prefabricated bathroom with a secondary bottom frame means that one
may define a shaft area immediately on the other side of one of the walls delimiting
the interior of the bathroom from its surroundings. Such a shaft area may serve the
purpose of making room for the installations for water and sanitary installations
which are necessary in order to couple the bathroom to water and sanitary facility
installations of a building.
[0027] In an embodiment of the invention the secondary bottom frame of the prefabricated
bathroom is being integrated with the primary bottom frame; or the secondary bottom
frame is mounted on the primary bottom frame; or the primary bottom frame is mounted
on the secondary bottom frame.
[0028] These embodiments represent alternatives of designs of the bottom frame when this
comprises a primary bottom frame as well as a secondary bottom frame.
[0029] In an embodiment of the invention the secondary bottom frame of the prefabricated
bathroom additionally comprises one or more walls, such as 1, 2 or 3 walls, wherein
each of these one or more walls comprises a box-shaped element and wherein each wall
is a wall, which is not adjoining the interior of the bathroom.
[0030] In such an embodiment one or more of the walls of the secondary bottom frame, on
the side facing away from the shaft area, may be provided with gypsum boards.
[0031] In these two embodiments the wall or the walls, which is/are being arranged on the
secondary bottom frame may make up a wall or walls in the building into which the
bathroom is to be installed, in such a way that this wall thereby adjoins another
room in the relevant building.
[0032] In an embodiment of the invention the shaft area of the prefabricated bathroom is
not being provided with floor or ceiling. Alternatively, the shaft area of the bathroom
is being provided with a floor and/or a ceiling, wherein the floor and/or the ceiling
of the shaft area is covering the whole horizontal area corresponding to the shaft
area. The shaft area of the bathroom may also be provided with a floor and/or a ceiling,
wherein the floor and/or the ceiling of the shaft area is covering only a part of
the horizontal area corresponding to the shaft area.
[0033] In an embodiment of the prefabricated bathroom of the invention one or more supply
conduits and/or drain conduits for water to/from one or more types of sanitary installations
is/are being terminated with a termination on that side of that wall of the bathroom
facing the shaft area.
[0034] Hereby is assured an easy and fast coupling of the bathroom to the existing water
installations in a building, in a situation where the bathroom has been installed
in a building.
[0035] In an embodiment of the invention the elements are made up of steel cassettes.
[0036] In an embodiment of the invention the steel cassettes are being made from galvanized
steel plates, preferably hot-dip galvanized steel plates.
[0037] In an embodiment of the invention the material thickness of the steel cassettes is
between 0.6 mm and 3 mm, preferably between 1 mm and 2 mm.
[0038] Such steel cassettes are beneficial due to a very suitable combination of low weight
and high strength, especially after mounting of the gypsum boards.
[0039] In an embodiment of the invention the height of the steel cassettes is between 1.8
m and 2.5 meter, preferably between 2.1 m and 2.3 m.
[0040] In an embodiment of the invention the width of the steel cassettes is between 0.1
m and 0.8 m, preferably between 0.16 m and 0.6 m.
[0041] In an embodiment of the invention the thickness of the steel cassettes is between
3 cm and 7 cm, preferably between 5.5 cm and 6 cm.
[0042] Use of steel cassettes having these dimensions is suitable for constructing bathrooms
having a suitable floor area and height position of the ceiling. The steel cassettes
may beneficially be assembled by the so-called clinching technique in which a point
on the plates are squeezed out at a pressure of 30 kilonewton (kN) or more and thereby
creates a permanent joint.
[0043] In an embodiment of the invention the gypsum boards are being fully glued to the
elements.
[0044] Within the scope of the present invention the term fully gluing may be interpreted
in the way where a gypsum board on the entirety of one of its surfaces is applied
with glue, whereafter the elements via this applied glue are glued to the gypsum boards.
[0045] In an embodiment of the invention the thickness of the gypsum boards is between 10
mm and 20 mm.
[0046] In an embodiment of the invention the gypsum boards have been cut in such a way that
a single gypsum board will cover the whole of an internal surface in the bathroom,
such as a whole side wall or a ceiling.
[0047] The use of fully glued gypsum boards, each covering the whole of an internal surface
in the bathroom means that it is possible to apply paint directly onto the gypsum
board without any prior filling/fairing.
[0048] In one aspect the invention relates to a method for the manufacture of a bathroom
as described above, wherein said method comprises the steps of:
- manufacture of a tile covered floor
- cutting a gypsum board in such a way that it exactly fits so as to cover the whole
of an internal surface of a wall in the desired bathroom
- fully gluing the gypsum board, for example by letting it pass a gluing machine
- arranging box-shaped elements with their closed side into the still wet glue
- mounting the wall manufactured in this way onto the finished floor
- repeating the previous four steps until all four walls have been mounted on the floor
- cutting a gypsum board in such a way that it exactly fits so as to cover the internal
ceiling of the desired bathroom
- fully gluing the gypsum board, for example by letting it pass through a gluing machine
- arranging box-shaped elements with their closed side into the still wet glue
- mounting the ceiling manufactured in this way onto the previously manufactured walls
- mounting of tiles on selected parts of the internal walls in the bathroom, for example
in a shower compartment
- painting of the rest of the parts of the walls and installing sanitary installations.
[0049] In this way it is possible easily and fast to manufacture a prefabricated bathroom
having lower weight and implying lower costs, compared to other prior art bathrooms.
[0050] In an embodiment the painting of the inner walls are performed without prior filling/fairing,
however, optionally with prior mounting of felt cloth on the wall(s).
[0051] In an embodiment of the method the manufactured bathroom comprises a secondary bottom
frame, and the method furthermore comprises, regarding this secondary bottom frame,
the following steps:
- cutting a gypsum board in such a way that it exactly fits so as to cover the whole
of a wall in the desired bathroom
- fully gluing the gypsum board, for example by letting it pass through a gluing machine
- arranging box-shaped elements with their closed side into the still wet glue
- mounting the wall manufactured in this way onto the secondary bottom frame
- repeating the previous four steps until the desired number of walls have been mounted
on the secondary bottom frame.
[0052] In one aspect the invention additionally relates to the use of a prefabricated bathroom
according to the present invention as a construction element in the construction of
a building.

Detailed description of the invention
[0054] Fig. 1 show a view into a prefabricated bathroom 1 according to an embodiment of
the invention. The bathroom 1 has been assembled by arranging the four walls 4,5 on
the previously manufactured tile covered floor 2 having a floor drain 10, whereafter
the ceiling 3 has been mounted.
[0055] Subsequently, the manufacture of the bathroom has been finished by painting and mounting
of wall tiles 12 and sanitary installations in the form of for example toilet 7, sink
8 and shower 9. As seen, it is only the shower compartment which has tiles mounted
on the wall 4. In the rest of the bathroom the walls 5 have been painted, which is
considerably faster end less demanding in terms of material consumption, compared
to mounting of tiles.
[0056] As it appears from the right side of the door opening, through which the bathroom
is viewed, the walls have been made up of steel cassettes 6.
[0057] Fig. 2 shows the same bathroom 1 as viewed from the outside. Here the box-shaped
steel cassettes 6, from which the wall 4,5 of the bathroom 1 are made up, are clearly
seen. Furthermore, it is seen how the floor 2 is surrounded by a bottom frame in the
form of a primary bottom frame 16 having a door opening 14 and lifting brackets 15,
and that transportation legs 18, onto which the bottom frame 16 of the bathroom 1
is supported, have been arranged under each corner of the bathroom 1.
[0058] Fig. 3 is a schematic drawing of the bathroom 1 as view from above and without ceiling
3. Here, it is seen how the steel cassettes 6 on the inner side are covered with gypsum
boards 11 on top of which, tiles 12 have been mounted at certain places. Moreover,
it is seen how the toilet 7 has been partly hidden in the void in that steel cassette
into which it is installed.
[0059] Fig. 4a is a schematic drawing of a finished floor 2 to the bathroom 1 as viewed
form above. The floor 2 is covered with tiles 12 and the hatching of the floor 2 in
the shower compartment denotes that the floor in this area may be sunk in relation
to the remainder of the floor 2. This is also shown in Fig. 4c illustrating a cross-section
of the floor 2 and the underlying concrete support 19. Fig. 4b and 4c illustrate the
bottom frame 16 around the floor 2 as viewed from two different sides.
[0060] Fig. 5 og 6 show how installations such as for example a shower connection 17 and
the flush tank of the toilet 7 and supply conduits and drain conduits can be fully
or partly hidden to a user in the voids in the steel cassettes 6 of the bathroom 1.
When the bathroom has been installed in a building, the open side of the steel cassettes
will be closed off, using gypsum boards 11 or otherwise, so that these installations
will be fully hidden.
[0061] In Fig. 7, which illustrates a joint between the floor 2 and a painted wall 5 in
a bathroom 1 according to an embodiment of the invention, it is seen how the steel
cassettes 6 with the glued-on gypsum board 11 is arranged on top of the bottom frame
16. Moreover, it is illustrated how the transition between the bottom frame 16 and
the gypsum board 11 in areas of the bathroom 1, in respect of which the wall is not
covered with tiles 4, but has been painted 5, may be covered with a low tile cover
along the floor.
[0062] Fig. 8 illustrates a joint between two tile covered walls 4 in a bathroom 1 according
to an embodiment of the invention. Here it is clearly seen how the tile cover 12 has
been mounted on top of the gypsum board 11, which in turn has been mounted on the
steel cassettes 6.
[0063] Fig. 9 illustrates in a perspective view an embodiment of a prefabricated bathroom
according to the invention comprising a primary bottom frame along with a secondary
bottom frame which defines a shaft area, wherein the bathroom is viewed from the outside.
[0064] It is seen in Fig. 9 that the inner of the bathroom 1 is surrounded by ceiling 3
and walls 5,6. The walls 5,6 are supported by a primary bottom frame 16, which also
supports a floor (not seen in Fig. 9).
[0065] At the nearest wall 5,6 it is seen that a secondary bottom frame 19 extends from
the primary bottom frame 16. This secondary bottom frame defines a shaft area 20.
[0066] It is seen that supply conduits 22 and drain conduits 22 for water to and from various
types of sanitary installations 21, being present in the interior of the bathroom,
have been led to that side of the wall 4,5 of the bathroom which faces the shaft area
20 and that these supply conduits 22 and drain conduits 22 are terminated by a termination
23.
[0067] The embodiment illustrated in Fig. 9 accordingly represents a bathroom which has
been almost optimally prefabricated in the sense that this bathroom is ready for being
transported to a construction site, where it by means of the lifting brackets 15 in
the bottom frames 16 and 19 may be lifted into the interior of a building, into which
the bathroom is to be functional. As all installations in the form of supply conduits
22 and drain conduits 22 for water have been led from the interior of the bathroom
to that side of the nearest wall 5,6 facing the shaft area 20, the bathroom 1 can
be easily connected to the supply pipes and drain pipes being present in the building
[0068] The shaft area 20 accordingly may function as an installation room for the bathroom.
Moreover, it can be assured that the respective shaft areas 20 in respect of different
bathrooms 1 being arranged on top of each other in different floors in a building
will define a shaft in the building in such a way that even when the construction
of the building has been finished, it is possible to access the water installations,
that is the water supply conduits 22 and the water drain conduits 22 belonging to
the bathroom of each floor.
[0069] The shaft area 20 of each bathroom may either be provided without floor and ceiling;
or the shaft area 20 of each bathroom may be provided with a floor and/or a ceiling,
wherein the floor and/or the ceiling of the shaft area is covering the whole horizontal
area corresponding to the shaft area; or the shaft area 20 of each bathroom may be
provided with a floor and/or a ceiling, wherein the floor and/or the ceiling of this
shaft area is covering only a part of the horizontal area corresponding to the shaft
area 20.
[0070] Finally, it is seen in Fig. 9 that a wall 24 comprising a box-shaped element is arranged
on the secondary bottom frame 19. This wall 24 is, on that side facing away from the
shaft area 20, covered with one or more gypsum boards 11 and hence may function as
a wall in the finished building so that this wall will be facing another room in the
building.
