Description

Public shower

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a shower, specifically to a public shower, of the type used in Pools, beaches and the like.

The object of the invention is to get a shower capable of supplying users with water at a temperature appropriate for the showering operation to be comfortable.

Background of the invention

In public restrooms, such as swimming pools or previously mentioned beaches, showers are usually used allow bathers the proper cleanliness after the bath, to remove salt, sand, chlorine, etc. from your skin

These showers are connected to the general network of water supply through the corresponding tap or valve, of so that they are only trained to supply the Cold water users.

At certain times and for certain users that a public shower provides cold water can be more than enough, but in other cases it would be desirable have hot or warm water that improves the conditions of showered

Description of the invention

The shower proposed by the invention resolves the problem was fully satisfactory before exposed, allowing its users to have both hot water as well as cold water, as well as any mixture for achieve any thermal level deemed convenient.

For this and more specifically, the shower that the invention proposes incorporating a hollow column determining a watertight receptacle, of considerable capacity, which houses in its inside a heating electric heater, assisted by a thermostat and powered at the expense of the general supply network electric, through the corresponding control box, which it can be located on the shower itself, in the immediate vicinity of the same or as far from it as it deems convenient, without this affects the essence of the invention at all.

To the deposit configured by the mentioned column also access a pipeline, coming from the general network of supply of sanitary water, and that through a tap supplies cold water to an artichoke located on the upper extremity of the column.

Said pipe will preferably access the shower at the lower end of the spine and shape buried, and incorporating in the proximal area of said limb bottom of the column an exit to the tank configured by the same and where the resistance is housed, so that the water that access to said tank is subjected to a heating phase, controlled by the aforementioned thermostat, and so that the own water pressure that accesses said tank tends to leave it thereof by an outlet pipe connected through a second tap to the aforementioned artichoke from the upper extremity of the column.

This way users can shower exclusively with cold water through the first tap, exclusively with hot water through the second tap, or by a mixture of cold or hot water, adjustable at will, acting properly on both tap.

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that is being performing and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization of it, is accompanied as part member of that description, a set of drawings where with illustrative and non-limiting nature, what has been represented next:

Figure 1. - Sample, according to a representation schematic in perspective, a public shower made according for the purpose of the present invention.

Figure 2. - Shows an elevation view side and in the shower section of the previous figure.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

In view of the figures outlined you can be observed as the shower that the invention proposes, from a base or base plate (1) for proper fixing to the ground, materializes in a column (2), of appropriate height and of considerable volumetry, determinant of an internal deposit and waterproof (3), capable of storing a sufficient dose of water as to be able to carry out at least one shower.

Within this waterproof tank (3) establishes an electric resistance (4) heating the mass of water housed within it, resistance (4) fed by the general electricity supply network through a box control (5) and with the collaboration of a thermostat (6) that limits the maximum level of the water temperature inside said reservoir (3).

Water reaches column (2), that is, at tank (3), through an underground pipe (7) that penetrates into said deposit (3) by the lower end of the column (1), as seen in figure 2, and that immediately below undergoes a fork determining an exit (8) for access direct from the water to the chamber or reservoir (3), while said pipe (7) extends inside the column in a long section (7 ') that extends to reach a tap (9), located at an intermediate height and suitable for easy handling by the users, from which the conduit (7 ') is directed, through a second section (7``), to an artichoke (10) located near the upper extremity of the spine (2) and properly oriented to reach the users body.

The cold water that accesses through the exit (8) to the tank (3) is heated inside it due to the resistance (4) to the level determined by the thermostat (6), and is also able to reach the artichoke (10) through a second tap (11), powered by a pipe (12) that comes from near the thermostat (6) or anywhere else appropriate deposit (3), and also establishing communication with  the aforementioned artichoke (10), in order that the latter can reach cold water through the pipe (7'-7``), hot water through the pipe (12), or a mixture of hot and cold water when It acts simultaneously on the two taps (9) and (11).

The column (2), that is, the walls of the tank (3), will be conveniently structured to reduce to the maximum the loss of calories through it, and optionally they can even allow the passage or transmission of radiation solar, so that it collaborates with the heating resistors (4), or even to replace them.

Claims (4)

1. Public shower, of the type of those destined to be implanted in beaches, swimming pools and the like and those that have a column fixed to the ground, topped by its upper extremity in the corresponding artichoke for water outlet with the collaboration of the corresponding command or tap, characterized in that said column materializes in a hollow and watertight body, determining a reservoir of appropriate capacity to contain at least one dose of water in turn suitable for a shower, an electrical resistor being housed inside said reservoir heater, assisted by a thermostat that limits the temperature of the water inside said tank, which is provided with a second key or tap for access to the upper artichoke. 2. Public shower, according to claim 1, characterized in that said column receives, preferably through its lower end, a pipe connected to the general sanitary water supply network, which immediately then incorporates a direct outlet to the container container of hot water, and that extends to the cold water tap, from which it goes to the upper artichoke, while the water that accesses the tank through said outlet and after its heating, returns through an auxiliary pipe and from the second tap to the upper artichoke feed pipe. 3. Public shower, according to previous claims, characterized in that the electrical resistance, together with its complementary thermostat, are connected to the general power supply network through a control box. 4. Public shower, according to previous claims, characterized in that the hot water outlet pipe of the tank places its access mouth to it in the vicinity of the thermostat that assists the electrical resistance, while its corresponding tap is located in the vicinity of the cold water control tap.
