Definitions

  • the invention relates to a foldable sauna according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a folding sauna is known from JP 11028240, which includes a rear wall and side folding walls and a front wall u.
  • the rear wall is held vertically and at the same time the front wall is moved away from the rear wall.
  • the two side folding walls are unfolded with the vertical folding lines and the wall elements arranged between them, which requires the folding walls to move over the floor.
  • the back wall has the width and the height of the folding sauna and is therefore a comparatively bulky part that is difficult to carry and store. At least two people are required for installation, one person holding the rear wall and the other person pulling the front wall away from the rear wall.
  • JP 11253521, JP 7213578, JP 10043268 and US 6,055,684 describe sauna cabins with a box-shaped back part.
  • a folding wall connects to the two side wall surfaces of the box-shaped back part. These folding walls comprise wall elements which are connected to one another via vertical folding lines.
  • the box-shaped back section has the width and the height of the folding sauna, as well as the depth of its side wall surfaces. This results in a bulky part that is difficult to carry and store. When setting up, there is a risk that the box-shaped back part placed on the lower side surface is not sufficiently secure before the folding walls are unfolded and can tip over if it is not touched, so that again two people are required for safe handling.
  • the folding sauna according to JP 7213578 comprises a frame with a floor surface, the frame being pivotally connected to the box-shaped back part. After the folding walls have been unfolded, the floor surface is pivoted from the vertical position in the back part into a horizontal position on the floor.
  • the large back part with the folding walls, the swivel-mounted bottom surface and a seat surface arranged between these parts can only be carried by two people when folded due to the large external dimensions.
  • the bottom of the sauna is made of flexible or foldable material or parts. This results in a lot of buckling, deformation or hinge zones, which are inherently susceptible to the tightness.
  • the base area of the sauna is only clearly recognizable after it has been unfolded, so that placing it before setting up the sauna can result in incorrect estimates of the space required.
  • An object of the invention is to provide a sauna that allows easier handling compared to the prior art. In particular, it should be possible to position it in a room after which it is no longer necessary to change the orientation, used standing area or position of the sauna.
  • Another task is the integration of components or peripheral devices in the sauna without any handling disadvantages, e.g. by unfavorable weight distributions.
  • Another task is the improved sealing of the floor area or the base area of the sauna, for example against: condensation. According to the invention, these tasks are achieved by
  • the present invention relates to a folding sauna in which the unfolding takes place essentially vertically from a base plate, the folding sauna being easily transportable when folded, e.g. through design in the form of a suitcase.
  • the folding sauna is designed so that it can be brought together in a suitcase-shaped condition. So that such a case, e.g. on a handle arranged at the top, can be carried comfortably, it should have a height that is less than 70 cm, but preferably less than 60 cm, in particular less than 55 cm. However, because the bottom surface of a folding sauna now has a length and a width of at least 70 cm, preferably essentially 80 cm, it can be made foldable to enable a desired case shape. Due to the larger rear wall compared to the floor area, this rear wall should also be designed to be foldable. With a foldable bottom and foldable rear wall, as well as foldable side walls, it can be realized according to the invention that the folded sauna is easy to carry and store when folded.
  • Training according to a special embodiment can ensure that the folding sauna can be set up by one person without difficulty. This is possible, for example, if the fold lines between the wall elements of the side walls in the unfolded state of the folding sauna run essentially horizontally. Through such a course of the folding or folding zones, the side walls are flexibly or deformably connected to the bottom surface via folding lines. When they are set up, they are not unfolded away from the rear wall, as in the solutions according to the prior art, but can be unfolded safely and comfortably by one person from the floor surface, which is stable and positioned precisely on the floor.
  • a further advantage of unfolding from a floor surface is that the floor surface can be made cheaply from one piece or with a maximum of one folding line for collecting water, so that no water gets onto the building floor when the folding sauna is used.
  • Embodiments in which the bottom surface and the rear wall each comprise at least three fixed elements, which are connected to one another via folding connections, can be constructed in such a way that two fixed bottom elements form outer surfaces, namely two large side surfaces, in the case-folded state.
  • the elements of the rear wall can be folded away, for example, so that the elements of the side walls are exposed.
  • the adjoining element of the rear wall can be brought into a corner connection with the side wall from the folded-away position, so that a side wall and an element of the rear wall form a stable corner area.
  • the back wall can be finished with a middle element of the back wall.
  • the fixed elements that are connected to each other during assembly can be fixed by means of generally known connections, such as click or snap-in systems. It goes without saying that connections using buckles or Velcro are also possible.
  • a flexible cover When the folding sauna is unfolded, a flexible cover extends between the side walls and at least partially covers the interior of the folding sauna. So that the flexible cover achieves an insulation effect, it can be formed in several layers, for example with two sheath layers and an insulation layer arranged between them. However, this cover can also consist of a plurality or a plurality of rigid components, e.g. be designed in the form of a blind or a sectional gate.
  • an entry device that is easy to open and close is created in the cover or when it is connected to a side wall.
  • the entry device is provided, for example, by a zipper, which is arranged in the flexible cover and extends between the side walls from a region near the floor against the rear wall. In the vicinity of the rear wall, in particular at the upper end of the entry device, a neck opening is provided in the flexible cover, so that only one person after entering the folding sauna and closing the entry device
  • a cover for the neck opening may be provided so that the folding sauna can be preheated before a person enters.
  • This opening cover can be arranged as a tab on the flexible cover or as a pivotable fixed element on the rear wall.
  • the flexible cover can be firmly connected to the upper edges of the side walls and, after the side walls have been folded together, placed on them and then covered by the elements of the rear wall. So that the flexible cover does not make it difficult to set up and fold the folding sauna walls, it is advisable not to connect them firmly to the side walls.
  • the flexible cover can be folded up separately or rolled up and then placed in a receiving area of the case-shaped folded sauna.
  • the connection between the flexible cover and the walls of the folding sauna should be easy to achieve and ensure the necessary tightness.
  • the side edges of the flexible cover interact, at least in the unrolled state, with holding devices on the two side walls.
  • the holding devices can include zippers and Velcro, snap and plug connections.
  • the holding devices are designed as guides, so that the flexible cover can be pulled over the area to be covered on both side edges.
  • Such guides are particularly advantageous when the flexible cover is wound around a rod-shaped element, preferably with a eder-shaped return device.
  • the rod-shaped element can be inserted into a holder on both side walls when the folding sauna is set up.
  • this element can be integrated on the front side of the opening opening on the bottom.
  • the cover is pulled to the rear wall and brought into tight contact with it.
  • the flexible cover can be separated from the rear wall and wound onto the rod-shaped element, and can be removed from the holders. If the flexible cover can be rolled up using a spring, a person can comfortably take a seat in the sauna and grasp the cover on the floor and pull it out towards the head. Such guidance of the cover is not possible, for example, in solutions of the prior art with a fold out from a back part, since in such a configuration the cover would have to be pulled over the head.
  • Mounts for beverage containers and for operating and / or display devices can be arranged. Due to the connections between the fixed wall elements of all walls, all wall elements are so stable that glasses can be placed in a holder attached to a wall element without the risk of tipping or falling out.
  • the material of the solid wall and floor elements includes, for example, carbon. But it can also be hard Plastic or wood can be used to make the solid elements.
  • heating elements and operating and / or display devices are arranged directly on the fixed wall elements or integrated into them.
  • the operating and / or display devices are connected to a control device, which in turn is connected to the heating elements, a feed connection and optionally at least one sensor, in particular a temperature sensor.
  • the connecting lines are held approximately in or on the fixed elements.
  • a connection with an automatic cable feed is provided, the cable feed being arranged on a fixed element.
  • the control device and possibly other components, such as the cable feed can be arranged in or on a floor element, for example, so that they can also be accessed for checks or repairs when the folding sauna is folded.
  • the accommodation of the supply and switching devices required for the folding sauna in a floor element requires the advantages of good placement and an integrated, protected, in particular sealable, accommodation of the components.
  • the impression of a racing car cockpit can be achieved.
  • the holder for drinks and / or the operating device may be designed in the form of an outside mirror.
  • the character of the race can be enhanced by a color combination common to racing cars, for example red / black.
  • the sauna users are recommended to wear a helmet, for example, a bracket for the helmet is provided on a wall element.
  • This helmet can also have the functionality of a cover that can be used for preheating. If necessary, a tank cap is provided on a wall element, which can be opened in particular via a button mechanism.
