Abstract

An adaptive device for connecting a waterproofing to a built-in shower drain, said built-in drain comprising a drain body mountable in a clamping ring, which comprises a body made up of an upper section and a lower section with a through hole, in parallel arrangement at different levels, the upper and lower sections joined together by means of a deformable intermediate section which is capable of folding by means of at least one fold line. This device provides a global constructive system for built-in showers, greater versatility and adaptability to different thicknesses and layers of materials which may be used in the construction of a shower.

Claims (23)

1. A waterproofing assembly for a built-in shower drain which comprises:

An upper grate,

A drain body,

A clamping ring placed between the upper grate and the drain body,

an adaptive device configured to connect a waterproofing to a built-in shower drain, placed between the upper grate and the drain body, which comprises a body made up of an upper section with a through hole and a lower section with a through hole in parallel arrangement at different levels, the upper and lower sections joined together by means of a deformable intermediate section which is capable of folding by means of at least one fold line; and

A template piece configured to be placed on the clamping ring, which comprises a body of a rigid material which has an upper surface and a lower surface with a central through hole, the surfaces being separable from one another, the upper and lower surfaces joined together by means of an intermediate section, the lower surface having a plurality of protuberances, in which at least one of the protuberances has a through hole,

the adaptive device and the template piece being axially aligned with respect to a drain body and the clamping ring.

2. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the protuberances of the template piece are arranged in two sets, radially distributed with respect to the central through hole.

3. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the template piece includes at least a perforated pre-cut line arranged in the peripheral area of the lower section.

4. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the template piece includes at least an additional perforated pre-cut line located in the upper section.

5. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the intermediate section of the template piece includes at least a marking line.

6. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein each of the protuberances of a first set of protuberances comprises a through hole.

7. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the lower surface of the template piece has a circular plan.

8. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the upper surface of the template piece has a quadrangular, plan.

9. The waterproofing assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the clamping ring is coupled to the template piece and the drain body by means of screw elements which pass through protuberances of the template piece.

10. In a waterproofing assembly for a built-in shower drain, that drains water coming from a shower tray, with an upper grate connectable to said shower tray, and a drain body with a mouth, the drain body configured to be housed in a drainage hole, and a clamping ring placed between the upper grate and the drain body and configured to be fastened to said upper grate and said drain body, an improvement comprising:

an adaptive device for connecting the waterproofing assembly and the built-in shower drain as well as to be placed between the drain body and the clamping ring, the adaptive device comprising a body made up of an upper section joined to a lower section by means of a deformable intermediate section which is capable of folding by means of at least one fold line; and

a template piece configured to be placed on the clamping ring having an upper surface and a lower surface with a central through hole, the upper and lower surfaces joined together by means of an intermediate section, the lower surface having a plurality of protuberances, in which at least one of the protuberances has a through hole, and the template piece includes at least a perforated pre-cut line arranged in the peripheral area of the lower section:

wherein the adaptive device and the template piece are axially aligned with respect to the drain body and the clamping ring.

11. The improvement according to claim 10 , wherein the intermediate section of the adaptive device comprises at least three folding lines parallel to each other.

12. The improvement according to claim 10 , wherein the body has a circular plan.

13. The improvement according to claim 10 , wherein the body is made up of a laminar material of waterproofing material.

14. The improvement according to claim 10 , wherein the protuberances of the template piece are arranged in two sets, radially distributed with respect to the central through hole.
