    bathtub
    The invention relates to a bathtub, comprising a container having an upper, edge enclosing the container, wherein the height of the upper edge is smaller in a partial area, so that an entry into the container is formed, wherein a door is provided for closing the boarding.
    State of the art
    Bathtubs have a container in a shape and size that allows a person to lie down or sit down, and the tub can be filled with water to the extent that much of the body is covered with water. The upper edge defines the maximum filling height. For people with physical disabilities, entry-level bathtubs were developed. In these, the upper edge in a partial area (the so-called entry level) is lower, so that the person can get in and out of the bath more easily. US 6,226,808 discloses e.g. a bathtub with entry and outward pivoting door, the door is closed by means of a knob.
    Due to the surface condition of bathtubs there is a great risk of slipping in the wet, which is increased by the complex locking mechanism in the prior art, since the person still has to focus on closing the door.
    Brief description of the invention
    Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a bathtub of the type mentioned, in which the disadvantages described are avoided. In particular, a simple approach to the bath should be possible without a complicated, stiff mechanism must be operated.
    This object is achieved by a bathtub, comprising a container with an upper edge enclosing the container, wherein the height of the upper edge is reduced in a partial area and an entry into the container is formed, wherein a pivotable inside the container door is provided to open and close the door, wherein the door is self-closing and wherein corresponding door and container elements are provided for a magnetic closure.
    The container has a shape and size so that a person can insert or set, wherein the container can be filled with enough water that a large part of the body is covered with water. The upper edge defines the maximum filling height and holds the container. In a subregion the upper edge is lower, i. he has a lower height. This forms an entry into the container.
    The door is pivotable into the interior of the container and secured to a side edge of the doorway, in contrast to US 6,226,808, where the door is pivotable outwardly. In combination with the self-closing door, this embodiment has the advantage that the entry may possibly even without the assistance of one hand only by pressing the door into the interior of the container with one leg. In any case, the person no longer has to close the door with his hand. The magnetic lock ensures that the door also rests against the container and after filling the container with water no water can leak from the container through the entrance. The self-closing door also has the advantage over the prior art that an improper, incomplete or completely omitted closing the door remains without negative consequences.
    In the preferred case it is provided that the entry is substantially U-shaped. Thus, the approach for the person is particularly easy.
    In a preferred embodiment, it is provided that the door completely covers the entrance. The door thus has a surface which not only completely conceals the entrance, but also projects beyond the entrance at the lateral edges and at the lower edge. Preferably, the entrance is U-shaped, wherein the door is then preferably formed substantially rectangular and has a surface which projects beyond the U of the boarding at all edges.
    It is preferably provided that the self-closing door has a hinge which is connected via a spring tension to the main body of the bathtub. The at least one hinge is attached to one of the two lateral edges of the entry to the bathtub. To minimize potential injury, the hinge is preferably inboard, i. it has largely no protruding parts and the pivot mechanism is mounted behind the container inner wall.
    Preferably, the corresponding elements for the magnetic closure metal plates and permanent magnets. In this case, a permanent magnet and a metal plate is provided at least at the side edge of the boarding, which faces the hinge, one of permanent magnet or metal plate attached to the door and one of permanent magnet or metal plate is mounted on the edge of the boarding.
    To seal the door, the door preferably has a sealing rubber. This lies with the door closed on the inside of the container. As a result, the door is pressed together with the rubber seal when filling with water on the container, resulting in a better sealing of the bathtub.
    In a preferred embodiment variant, a procedure is that the container has a bottom, which lies below the lower entry edge. This makes it possible to open the door before the tub is completely emptied. In addition, so the danger that still residual water over the entry expires, banned.
    Further advantages and details will be explained with reference to the figures and description of the figures.
    Show it
    1 and 2 show two views of an embodiment of a bathtub with a closed (Fig. 1) and open (Fig. 2; Detail) door.
    Fig. 3a and 3b a section of the door, including closing mechanism with magnification (Fig. 3b).
    Fig. 4 is a section through the door of a bathtub along the
    Line I-Γ of Fig. 1.
    Figures 1, 2, 3a and 3b show a bathtub 1 comprising a container 2, an entrance 13 and a door 15. While Figures 1 and 3a show the bath 1 with the door 15 closed, Figures 2 and 3b disclose the same bath 1 with open door 15. The bath 1 has an upper, the container 2 bordering edge 10. The height of the upper edge 10 defines the maximum filling height. In a portion 11, the height of the upper edge 10 'of the container 2 is lower, so that the entrance 13 is formed in the container 2.
    The door 15 is pivotable into the interior of the container 2. As a result, the entrance 1 3 can be closed (FIG. 1) or opened (FIG. 2). The door 1 5 is self-closing by a locking mechanism, which will be explained in more detail later. At the door are several metal plates 19, four of which are visible in Fig. 2. On the container 2 are corresponding permanent magnets 17, wherein metal plate 19 and permanent magnets 17 form a magnetic closure 20 (the permanent magnets 17 are hidden in the figures by the door 1 5 and the container 2). This magnetic closure 20 ensures that the door 1 5 also bears against the container 2. Specifically, the door is 1 5 at the lateral edges 31, 32 and at the upper edge 10 'of the entry. In the present example are at both lateral edges 31, 32nd
    Permanent magnets 17 are provided. On the door 15 metal plate 19 are attached.
    The upper edge 10 defines the maximum filling height and grips the container 2. In the portion 11, the upper edge 10 'has a lower height. This means that the upper edge 10 'is lower than the remaining upper edge 10' and thus has a lower height. As a result, an entry 13 is formed in the container 2. The entry 13 is substantially U-shaped.
    The door 15 is pivoted into the interior of the container 2 and fixed to a lateral edge 32 of the entry 13 in the interior of the container 2. The self-closing door 1 5 also has the advantage over the prior art that an improper, incomplete or completely omitted closing the door 1 5 remains without consequences.
    The door 1 5 covers the edges of the container 2 completely in the area of the entry 1 3. The substantially rectangular door 15 has a surface which not only completely conceals the entrance 13, but also projects beyond the lateral edges 31, 32 and the upper edge 10 'of the access door 1 3.
    It is preferably provided that the self-closing door 1 5 has a hinge 35 which is connected to a spring 36. The hinge 35 is attached to one of the two lateral edges 32 of the boarding 1 3 to the bath 1. To minimize potential injury, the hinge 35 is internal, i. it has as far as possible no protruding parts. The pivot mechanism has a vertical linkage about which a circular segment-shaped pivot member 37 is rotatably mounted. On the pivot member 37, the door 15 is attached. In the container 2, an elongated opening 38 is introduced, through which the pivot member 37 extends. When the door 1 5 is opened, the pivot member 37 pivots partially into the interior of the container 2. The opening 38 is enclosed with a sealing ring 39 and abuts the pivot member 37, so that no liquid can escape. The spring 36 is spring-loaded and pulls the pivot member 37 back to the starting position.
    In order to seal the door 1 5, the door 1 5 has a sealing rubber 41. This is at the door closed on the inside of the container 2. When filling with water, the door 15 is pressed with the sealing rubber 41 on the container 2, resulting in a better sealing of the bath 1.
    The bottom 45 of the container 2 is arranged below the upper edge 10 'in the region of the entry 13. This makes it possible to open the door 15 before the bath 1 is completely emptied.
