Abstract
A partition wall for wet chambers, particularly for bathrooms or stall showers with several wall panels which are slidable either with each other or with respect to each other with each wall panel suspended in an upper guide rail with sliding or roller guides and with the lower guide ledges of the panels guided in a lower closed guide member, shaped with step-like guide rails on top of each other. In a preferred form the upper suspension of each wall panel is positioned outside the line of the center of gravity of the wall panel.
Claims15
Partition wall for wet chambers particularly for bathrooms or stall showers having several slidable wall panels with each wall panel suspended in an upper guide rail and with each wall panel having a lower guide ledge guided in a lower closed guide member, said lower closed guide member being shaped with steplike guide rails one above the other and having one continuous upper surface with said lower guide ledge disposed above the upper surface of the steplike guide rails, said wall panels having permanent magnets installed in said lower guide ledges of the wall panels, said guide rails having keeper means, and each wall panel disposed against a surface of a guide rail and held by magnetic force resulting from the attraction of said permanent magnets and said keeper means, in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the wall panel, and guided at said surface.
Partition wall for wet chambers, particularly for bathrooms or stall showers having several slidable wall panels with each wall panel suspended in an upper guide rail and with each wall panel having a lower guide ledge guided in a lower closed guide member with at least two guiding means and limiting walls, each wall panel having its upper suspension positioned outside the line of the center of gravity of the wall panel, and each wall panel having its lower guide ledge braced against a limiting wall of the lower guide member at an angle to the plane of the panel and held by permanent magnets against said limiting wall, and wherein said lower guide member has steplike guides on top of each other as one continuous upper surface with said lower guide ledge disposed above the upper surface of the steplike guide, and wherein the permanent magnets are adjacent the vertical surfaces of said steps and are guided along the vertical surfaces.
Partition wall for wet chambers particularly for bathrooms or stall showers having several slidable wall panels with each wall panel suspended in an upper guide rail and with each wall panel having a lower guide ledge guided in a lower closed guide member, said lower closed guide member being shaped with steplike guide rails one above the other and having one continuous upper surface with said lower guide ledge disposed above the upper surface of the steplike guide rails, said wall panels having keeper means installed in said lower guide ledges of the wall panels, said guide rails having permanent magnets, and each wall panel disposed against a surface of a guide rail and held by magnetic force resulting from the attraction of said permanent magnets and said keeper means, in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the wall panel, and guided at said surface.
