Installation unit for sanitary devices

Abstract

An installation unit with a profile or a profile surface and with a hand shower, which is held displaceably thereon and to which a shower hose leads, has a lateral slit on one side. The shower hose is led from the rear side of the profile surface through the lateral slit and runs from there in a groove-like depression up to the hand shower.

       2 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein setting devices are provided on said front side.  
   
   
       3 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said conduit device is fastened, behind said profile surface, to said installation unit.  
   
   
       4 . Installation unit according to  claim 3 , wherein said conduit device is fastened, behind said profile surface, to an installation body being provided behind said profile surface.  
   
   
       5 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said conduit device emanates from said side of said installation unit lying opposite said slit.  
   
   
       6 . Installation unit according to  claim 5 , wherein said conduit device is led, below a lower end of the installation body beyond which said profile surface projects downwards, onto said other side of said installation body as far as said slit.  
   
   
       7 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said slit is significantly longer than a thickness of said conduit device.  
   
   
       8 . Installation unit according to  claim 7 , wherein said slit is two to five times as long as a thickness of said conduit device and shorter than half a width of said profile surface.  
   
   
       9 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said conduit device is guided, freely suspended, from a fixed or rigid connection with said installation unit to said sanitary article.  
   
   
       10 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said conduit device runs as far as said slit, so as to be invisible from said front side, within said installation unit.  
   
   
       11 . Installation unit according to  claim 10 , wherein said conduit device is wound onto a winding arrangement.  
   
   
       12 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said slit is bevelled upwards at a front edge and downwards at a rear edge transversely with respect to a longitudinal extension or in a longitudinal direction of said conduit device.  
   
   
       13 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein a depression is provided at an upper end of said slit in said front side of said profile surface.  
   
   
       14 . Installation unit according to  claim 13 , wherein a depth of said depression corresponds to at least to half a thickness of said conduit device.  
   
   
       15 . Installation unit according to  claim 13 , wherein said conduit device runs therein so as to be countersunk flush with said surface.  
   
   
       16 . Installation unit according to  claim 1 , wherein said conduit device runs freely moveably below said slit and behind said profile surface, said conduit device being moveable freely and at a distance from said slit.  
   
   
       17 . Installation unit according to  claim 16 , wherein said conduit device runs freely and at a distance from said profile surface after removal of said sanitary article from said installation unit and movement of said conduit device out of said slit.  
   
   
       18 . Installation unit for sanitary devices, with at least one profile for mounting and attaching at least one sanitary article such as a shower on a front side, said profile having a profile surface forming said front side and also having a rear side, said sanitary article being arranged in an upper region of said installation unit, wherein a conduit device runs as a flexible hose from said rear side of said profile surface through this to said front side towards said sanitary article, a depression for receiving said conduit device being provided on said profile surface from a passage of said conduit device through said profile surface at least to just in front of said sanitary article.  
   
   
       19 . Installation unit according to  claim 18 , wherein said depression extends completely up to said sanitary article.  
   
   
       20 . Installation unit according to  claim 18 , wherein said conduit device can be countersunk largely or completely in said depression.  
   
   
       21 . Installation unit according to  claim 18 , wherein said sanitary article can be fastened to a mounting being fastened on said profile surface, so as to be displaceable in a direction of said depression.  
   
   
       22 . Installation unit according to  claim 18 , wherein said depression runs rectilinear with an approximately uniform cross section.  
   
   
       23 . Installation unit according  claim 1  or  18 , wherein setting devices or the like are provided on one side surface of said installation unit and said slit is provided on an other side surface.
