About Convenience Lavabo Temporal
Text del llibre: Convenience és un lavabo temporal dissenyat per a espais públics sense lavabos permanents. La unitat es col·loca sobre un punt d'accés al clavegueram, de manera que l'orina s'evacua directament al pou de clavegueram i no es queda emmagatzemada. La tapa del clavegueram es retira i es col·loca en una ranura entre els dos urinaris, on manté la unitat estable i evita que es perdi. La forma dissenyada permet que la pluja netegi les superfícies. Convenience es fabrica mitjançant injecció de plàstic i és prou lleugera perquè els treballadors municipals la puguin moure. Les dimensions són 1300 mm d'amplada, 1400 mm de profunditat i 2000 mm d'alçada.

- Production Technology
- Our design is shaped by plastic injection molding technology.
- Design Challenge
- The challenge of our design is that we cannot find a right place to put manhole cover at the beginning. After a certain number of sketching and discussing of our project, we finally find the proper way which achieves the desired effect. Now, the manhole cover is the key of how to make Convenience self-balance.
- Research
- To avoid the awkward circumstance for nowhere to empty your bladder, the team offer a better solution of temporary man’s room by incorporating urban sewage into design. For temporary man’s room, as we all know, how to make it cleaning and where to put urine are big issues. Our team find a right way in it’s unique shape which can self-cleaning in those rainy days and let the pass water through into sewage well directly.
- Inspiration
- Because of it incorporates urban sewage, Convenience can be placed anywhere with a sewer line and manhole cover. The team have got a brilliant idea in reusing the manhole cover. The grooved-putting cover can make the product balance during service time. And the unique appearance make the pass water will be discharged into sewage well directly by the urinal so that it will not store urine. Convenience can be self-cleaning on rainy days. It is so light that can be moved easily by municipal workers.
- Project Duration
- The project started in April 2017 in LAFA Communal Facility Design Studio and finished in January 2018 in National Experimental Teaching Demonstration Center of Industrial Design in LAFA.
- Operation Flow
- The municipal apartment can remove the cover and put Convenience on the top of discharge. After setting Convenience, workers can put the manhole cover in the groove which is between two urinals’ back so that the cover won’t be lost.
