Description

La présente invention concerne une installation sanitaire pour mise en place temporaire et du type constitué d'une cabine individuelle, déplaçable et amovible, équipée d'organes de réception et de stockage des effluents, permettant un fonctionnement autonome indépendamment de tout raccordement sur une source de fluide de rinçage ou sur une évacuation collective.The present invention relates to a sanitary installation for temporary installation and of the type consisting of an individual, movable and removable cabin, equipped with organs for receiving and storing effluents, allowing autonomous operation independently of any connection to a source of rinsing fluid or on a collective drain.

L'invention sera particulièrement applicable à la réalisation d'un parc de cabines sanitaires susceptibles d'être mises en place à titre saisonnier ou momentané à l'occasion du regroupement ou de concentration ponctuelle dans le temps et dans l'espace de personnes, dans des circonstances et conditions qui ne comportent par ailleurs aucune infrastruc­ture d'accueil.The invention will be particularly applicable to the realization of a park of sanitary cabins likely to be set up on a seasonal or temporary basis at the time of the regrouping or of punctual concentration in time and in space of people, in circumstances and conditions which do not otherwise include any reception infrastructure.

Il est donc nécessaire, pour répondre aux besoins des personnes ainsi concentrées dans un espace restreint, de mettre à leur disposition un équipement permettant de respecter des conditions d'accueil comportant un minimum d'hygiène et de confort.It is therefore necessary, in order to meet the needs of people thus concentrated in a limited space, to provide them with equipment making it possible to comply with reception conditions comprising a minimum of hygiene and comfort.

L'invention sera plus particulièrement applicable dans le cadre de rassemblements ou concentrations de personnes à l'occasion de manifestations collectives, telles que meeting, expositions, concerts en plein air, fêtes champêtres, compétitions sportives, pèlerinages ou encore chantiers de travaux publics.The invention will be more particularly applicable in the context of gatherings or concentrations of people on the occasion of collective events, such as meetings, exhibitions, open-air concerts, country festivals, sports competitions, pilgrimages or even public works sites.

Dans tous ces cas, les rassemblements de personnes se situent dans des endroits qui ne bénéficient d'aucune possibilité de raccordement à l'égoût, de branchement électrique ou d'alimentation en eau de la ville ou eau courante.In all these cases, the gatherings of people are in places which do not benefit from any possibility of sewer connection, electrical connection or city water or running water supply.

L'invention permet d'une façon générale de mettre en place un équipement sanitaire dans des lieux dépourvus de toute infrastructure et de toute source d'énergie.The invention generally makes it possible to install sanitary equipment in places devoid of any infrastructure and any source of energy.

Elle sera également applicable à la mise en place d'équipements à l'occasion de migrations saisonnières comportant une accumulation, étalée sur quelques semaines ou quelques mois, d'une population importante, par exemple sur des lieux touristiques de vacances, bords de mers, aires de camping, ou zones de pratique de sports d'hiver, pistes de ski, aires de repos sur autoroutes ou analogues.It will also be applicable to the installation of equipment during seasonal migrations comprising an accumulation, spread over a few weeks or a few months, of a large population, for example on holiday tourist spots, seashores, camping areas, or winter sports areas, ski slopes, rest areas on motorways or the like.

L'invention permet donc de mettre en place une ou une pluralité de cabines individuelles sanitaires fonctionnant de façon autonome pendant une période de temps correspondant à un cycle d'utilisation en répondant ainsi aux besoins momen­tanés sans raccordement sur une source d'énergie, ni sur une alimentation en eau ou réseau d'évacuation.The invention therefore makes it possible to set up one or a plurality of individual sanitary cabins operating autonomously for a period of time corresponding to a cycle of use, thereby meeting temporary needs without connection to an energy source or to a water supply or drainage network.

Mais un autre objet de l'invention est de permettre un fonctionnement relativement prolongé de telles cabines avec la possibilité d'assurer l'évacuation, sans manipulation à l'air libre, des effluents une fois que la cabine est en fin de cycle ; de sorte que une cabine en fin de cycle peut rester sur place et être mise en ordre pour un nouveau cycle de fonctionnement, sans avoir cependant à procéder à des opérations désagréables pour l'environnement de transferts ou transvasements des effluents.But another object of the invention is to allow relatively prolonged operation of such cabins with the possibility of ensuring the evacuation, without manipulation in the open air, of the effluents once the cabin is at the end of the cycle; so that a cabin at the end of the cycle can remain on site and be put in order for a new operating cycle, without however having to carry out operations unpleasant for the environment of transfer or transfer of effluents.

A cet effet l'invention concerne une installation sanitaire du type constitué d'une cabine individuelle, déplaçable et amovible, équipée d'organe de réception et de stockage des effluents, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte un réservoir indépendant constitué d'une cuve comportant des moyens de raccordements permettant une connexion amovible et réversible de ladite cuve-réservoir sur les organes de réception et d'évacuation des effluents disposés sur la cabine, la cuve-­réservoir étant ainsi susceptible d'être retirée, après une période d'utilisation déterminée, indépendamment de la cabine, pour mise en place et en position de fonctionnement d'une nouvelle cuve-réservoir.To this end, the invention relates to a sanitary installation of the type consisting of an individual, movable and removable cabin, equipped with a body for receiving and storing effluents, characterized in that it comprises a reservoir independent consisting of a tank comprising connection means allowing a removable and reversible connection of said tank-tank on the elements for receiving and discharging effluents disposed on the cabin, the tank-tank being thus capable of being removed, after a determined period of use, independently of the cabin, for setting up and in the operating position of a new tank-tank.

Plus spécialement la cabine comporte à sa base un logement, récepteur de ladite cuve-réservoir, le logement étant disposé en dessous des organes de réception et d'évacuation des effluents, lesquels sont ainsi aptes à être acheminés par gravité depuis lesdits organes vers ladite cuve-réservoir.More specifically, the cabin comprises at its base a housing, receiver of said tank-tank, the housing being arranged below the bodies for receiving and discharging effluents, which are thus able to be conveyed by gravity from said bodies to said tank. -tank.

Et plus spécialement encore la cuve-réservoir comporte sur sa paroi supérieure une ouverture coopérant avec un organe d'obturation amovible permettant ainsi alternativement de refermer la cuve-réservoir pour le transport et le stockage en période de non utilisation et d'assurer, par retrait de l'obturateur, la mise en communication des organes de réception et d'évacuation de la cabine avec l'espace intérieur de la cuve-réservoir, lorsque la cuve-réservoir est en place dans la cabine.And more especially still, the tank-tank has on its upper wall an opening cooperating with a removable closure member thus alternately closing the tank-tank for transport and storage during periods of non-use and ensuring, by withdrawal of the shutter, the communication of the reception and evacuation members of the cabin with the interior space of the tank-tank, when the tank-tank is in place in the cabin.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention la cabine comporte un ensemble de manipulations de fluides, telle qu'une pompe volumique, raccordée en aval aux organes de réception et d'évacuation en vue de l'alimentation de ces organes en liquide de rinçage.According to another characteristic of the invention, the cabin comprises a set of handling of fluids, such as a volume pump, connected downstream to the reception and evacuation organs with a view to supplying these organs with rinsing liquid.

Et dans cette forme de réalisation ladite pompe est raccordée en amont à ladite cuve-réservoir par l'intermédiaire d'une prise de raccordement permettant le branchement et/ou la désolidarisation rapide de la pompe par rapport au réservoir.And in this embodiment, said pump is connected upstream to said tank-reservoir by means of a connection socket allowing the rapid connection and / or separation of the pump from the tank.

Plus spécialement encore ladite cuve-réservoir comporte un bloc de filtration immergé au sein de la cuve et relié à ladite prise de raccordement, ce bloc de filtration permettant l'alimentation de la pompe en une phase liquide prélevée dans ladite cuve-réservoir.More especially still, said tank-reservoir comprises a filtration block immersed within the tank and connected to said connection socket, this filtration block enabling the pump to be supplied with a liquid phase withdrawn from said tank-tank.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention la pompe est prévue du type à membrane et elle comporte une pédale d'actionnement mécanique, la pédale étant disposée sensible­ment au dessus du plancher de la cabine et étant associée à un ressort de rappel.According to another characteristic of the invention, the pump is provided of the diaphragm type and it includes a mechanical actuation pedal, the pedal being disposed substantially above the floor of the cabin and being associated with a return spring.

Selon encore une caractéristique de l'invention la cabine et le réservoir comportent des moyens de solidarisation réciproques et amovibles permettant alternativement la manipulation de l'ensemble cabine et cuve-réservoir en état de solidarisation et la manipulation de la cabine d'une part et du réservoir d'autre part séparément et étant désolidarisés.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the cabin and the tank comprise reciprocal and removable securing means alternately allowing the manipulation of the cabin and tank-tank assembly in an integral state and the manipulation of the cabin on the one hand and the tank on the other hand separately and being separated.

On peut également, dans le cadre de l'invention, prévoir que la cabine d'une part et la cuve-réservoir d'autre part comportent chacune des moyens d'accrochage ou de prise sur des engins de levage telles que des boucles permettant la solidarisation respectivement de la cabine et/ou de la cuve-­réservoir sur des dispositifs de levage tel qu'un harnais de levage susceptible d'être manoeuvré par le bras d'une grue.It is also possible, within the framework of the invention, to provide that the cabin on the one hand and the tank-tank on the other hand each comprise hooking or gripping means on lifting devices such as loops allowing the securing the cabin and / or the tank-tank respectively on lifting devices such as a lifting harness capable of being maneuvered by the arm of a crane.

Selon encore une caractéristique, la cuve-réservoir comporte une bonde de vidange pourvue d'un obturateur intérieur à ladite cuve-réservoir et commandée par une tige de manoeuvre traversant verticalement le réservoir, l'extrémité de la tige soumise à manipulation étant accessible depuis la paroi supérieure du réservoir.According to another characteristic, the tank-tank includes a drain plug provided with a shutter inside said tank-tank and controlled by an operating rod vertically passing through the tank, the end of the rod subjected to manipulation being accessible from the tank top wall.

Et l'invention concerne également une procédure de gestion d'un parc de cabines sanitaires indépendantes réalisées selon les caractéristiques ci-dessus, les cabines étant mises en place de façon momentanée ou saisonnière, et cette procédure est caractérisée par la succession des opérations suivantes :
- On met en place une certaine quantité de cabines comportant une cuve-réservoir laquelle contient initialement une faible quantité de liquide de rinçage correspondante à la quantité nécessaire pour les premières utilisations.
- On laisse les cabines en fonctionnement pendant un temps correspondant sensiblement au remplissage des cuves-­réservoirs.
- On dépose au voisinage immédiat d'une cabine dont le réservoir est sensiblement plein une nouvelle cuve-­réservoir ne contenant que les quantités initiales de liquide de rinçage neuf, nécessaires aux premières utilisations.
- On désolidarise ladite cabine d'une part et la cuve-­réservoir pleine associée à ladite cabine, notamment au niveau du raccordement de la pompe de la cabine sur la cuve-réservoir.
- On déplace la cabine en laissant sur place la cuve-­réservoir pleine et on amène cette cabine (sans réservoir) en position voisine et notamment de superposition par rapport à la nouvelle cuve-réservoir (mise en place précédemment) et on raccorde la pompe de ladite cabine sur ladite nouvelle cuve-réservoir, la cabine étant alors apte à un nouveau cycle de fonctionnement.
- On retire la cuve-réservoir pleine, après fermeture de cette dernière, en vue de son évacuation et de sa vidange.
The invention also relates to a procedure for managing a fleet of independent sanitary cabins produced according to the above characteristics, the cabins being set up temporarily or seasonally, and this procedure is characterized by the succession of the following operations:
- We set up a certain amount of booths comprising a tank-tank which initially contains a small amount of rinsing liquid corresponding to the amount necessary for the first uses.
- The cabins are left in operation for a time substantially corresponding to the filling of the tank-tanks.
- A new tank-tank containing only the initial quantities of new rinsing liquid, necessary for the first uses, is deposited in the immediate vicinity of a cabin whose tank is substantially full.
- Separating said cabin on the one hand and the full tank associated with said cabin, in particular at the connection of the cabin pump on the tank.
- The cabin is moved, leaving the full tank-tank in place and this cabin (without tank) is brought to a neighboring position and in particular of superposition with respect to the new tank-tank (previously installed) and the pump is connected. said cabin on said new tank-tank, the cabin then being capable of a new operating cycle.
- The full tank is removed, after closing the latter, for its evacuation and its emptying.

Tandis que la Figure 6 représente une vue en coupe verticale selon un plan médian du réservoir tel que représenté selon la figure précédente.While Figure 6 shows a vertical sectional view along a median plane of the tank as shown in the previous figure.

Selon les Figures 1 et 2, on voit que l'installation comporte essentiellement une cabine individuelle réalisée par exemple en polyester et formant une coque rigidifiée par des parois courbes.According to Figures 1 and 2, we see that the installation essentially comprises an individual cabin made for example of polyester and forming a shell stiffened by curved walls.

Cette coque de forme générale prismatique à base carrée 1 définit ainsi le corps de la cabine 2 rendue opaque, la partie 3 du toit étant constituée en polyester translucide.This generally prismatic shell with square base 1 thus defines the body of the cabin 2 made opaque, the part 3 of the roof being made of translucent polyester.

La façade avant comporte la porte 4 dont la base est située au niveau 5 correspondant au plancher de la cabine et accessible par le marchepied rabattable 6.The front panel has the door 4, the base of which is located at level 5 corresponding to the floor of the cabin and accessible by the folding step 6.

La partie inférieure ou embase 7 de la cabine, située en dessous du niveau 5 correspondant au plancher, constitue la partie de la cabine définissant un logement central dans lequel vient prendre position la cuve-réservoir amovible ci-­après décrite et représentée notamment en Figures 5 et 6.The lower part or base 7 of the cabin, located below level 5 corresponding to the floor, constitutes the part of the cabin defining a central housing in which the removable tank-tank is positioned, described below and shown in particular in Figures 5 and 6.

Comme on le voit sur la Figure 2, la cabine comporte à sa base deux patins par exemple en bois formant longeron respectivement 8 et 8′ et chaque patin latéral 8, 8′ comporte à ses extrémités des pattes pourvues d'anneaux de levage 9.As can be seen in FIG. 2, the cabin has at its base two pads, for example made of wood forming a beam respectively 8 and 8 ′ and each lateral pad 8, 8 ′ has at its ends legs provided with lifting rings 9.

Et sur la Figure 2 on voit également, entre les anneaux de levage 9 situés au angles de la cabine et permettant la manipulation de cette dernière, les boucles de levage 10 qui appartiennent à l'ensemble cuve-réservoir.And in Figure 2 we also see, between the lifting rings 9 located at the corners of the cabin and allowing the manipulation of the latter, the lifting loops 10 which belong to the tank-tank assembly.

Ainsi qu'on l'exposera dans la description du fonctionnement du système, els boucles respectivement 9 appartenant à la cabine et 10 appartenant au bloc cuve-réservoir permettent le levage et la manipulation indépendante de la cabine et du réservoir ; alors qu'il est cependant possible d'assurer la manipulation conjointe de la cabine et du réservoir ensemble, soit que la cabine et la cuve-réservoir aient été préalable­ment solidarisées, soit que les engins de levage, par exemple harnais suspendus à l'extrémité d'un bras de grue, fassent prise simultanément sur les boucles respectivement 9 de la cabine et 10 du bloc cuve-réservoir.As will be explained in the description of the operation of the system, els loops respectively 9 belonging to the cabin and 10 belonging to the tank-tank block allow the independent lifting and manipulation of the cabin and the tank; whereas it is however possible to ensure the joint manipulation of the cabin and the tank together, either because the cabin and the tank-tank have been previously secured, or because the lifting devices, for example harnesses suspended at the end of a crane arm, take hold simultaneously on the loops 9 respectively of the cabin and 10 of the tank-block.

Comme l'on voit sur la Figure 4 le plancher 11 de la cabine, constitué en panneaux de tôle armée aluminium traité, et s'appuyant sur une armature polyester armé solidaire de la cabine, supporte la cuvette en céramique, qui peut être du type "à l'anglaise" ou "à la turque" comme dans l'exemple représenté à la Figure 4 sous la référence 12.As can be seen in FIG. 4, the floor 11 of the cabin, made up of panels of treated aluminum reinforced sheet metal, and leaning on a reinforced polyester frame integral with the cabin, supports the ceramic bowl, which can be of the "English" or "Turkish" type as in the example represented in Figure 4 under the reference 12 .

La Base de la cuvette 12 débouche par le clapet 13 dans le volume intérieur de la cuve réservoir 14 qui comporte à cet effet à sa partie supérieure une ouverture pour recevoir le débouché constitué par la base de la cuvette, ouverture 15 qui est susceptible d'être obturée par une trappe amovible 16 en période de non utilisation, cette trappe d'obturation 16 étant susceptible d'être positionnée et solidarisée en position d'attente sur le plan supérieur de la cuve-réservoir, latéralement par rapport à l'ouverture 15.The base of the bowl 12 opens out through the valve 13 into the interior volume of the tank 14 which, for this purpose, has an opening at its upper part for receiving the outlet formed by the base of the bowl, opening 15 which is capable of be closed by a removable hatch 16 when not in use, this shutter hatch 16 being capable of being positioned and secured in the standby position on the upper plane of the tank, laterally with respect to the opening 15 .

L'ensemble cuve-réservoir 14 forme une capacité de grande dimension (par exemple de l'ordre de 300 litres) et elle est ainsi encastrée à l'intérieur de l'embase 1′ de la cabine.The tank-reservoir assembly 14 forms a large capacity (for example of the order of 300 liters) and it is thus fitted inside the base 1 ′ of the cabin.

Le volume intérieur de la cuve-réservoir comporte une bonde de vidange 17 associée à un obturateur 18 et s'ouvrant sur le fond de la cuve-réservoir, l'obturateur 18 étant susceptible d'être manoeuvré par la tige 19 commandée sur l'étrier 20 depuis la paroi supérieure de la cuve-réservoir.The interior volume of the tank-tank comprises a drain plug 17 associated with a shutter 18 and opening on the bottom of the tank-tank, the shutter 18 being capable of being operated by the rod 19 controlled on the bracket 20 from the upper wall of the tank.

Par ailleurs l'espace intérieur de la cuve-réservoir comporte un bloc de filtration 21 reposant sur la base de la cuve-­réservoir et relié par la canalisation 22 à la prise de raccordement amovible 23.Furthermore, the interior space of the tank-tank comprises a filtration unit 21 resting on the base of the tank-tank and connected by the pipe 22 to the removable connection socket 23.

Cette prise de raccordement est disposée à proximité de l'encoche 24 (Figure 5) pratiquée sur le corps de la cuve-­réservoir pour permettre le logement de la pompe cylindrique 25 (Figure 3).This connection socket is arranged near the notch 24 (Figure 5) made on the body of the tank-tank to allow the housing of the cylindrical pump 25 (Figure 3).

Cette pompe est raccordée pour son entrée aval par la canalisation 26 à la prise de raccordement rapide 23.This pump is connected for its downstream inlet via the pipe 26 to the quick connection socket 23.

La sortie aval de la pompe aboutit par la canalisation 27 à une buse de projection de liquide de rinçage 28 située en tête de la cuvette 12.The downstream outlet of the pump ends up via the pipe 27 at a rinsing liquid spray nozzle 28 located at the head of the bowl 12.

La pompe 25 est du type à membrane et elle est manoeuvrée par la pédale 29 montée sur le levier 30, et accessible à un niveau supérieur au plancher 11 de la cabine.The pump 25 is of the membrane type and is operated by the pedal 29 mounted on the lever 30, and accessible at a level higher than the floor 11 of the cabin.

Au départ, l'ensemble est mis en place sur le site avec une réserve de liquide de rinçage limitée à quelques litres et permettant les premières utilisations.At the start, the assembly is set up on site with a reserve of rinsing liquid limited to a few liters and allowing the first uses.

Chaque actionnement de la pompe permet le prélèvement dans la cuve-réservoir d'une quantité (environ 3 litres) de liquide de rinçage qui permet le nettoyage de la cuvette éventuel­lement après plusieurs appels sur la pompe.Each actuation of the pump allows the withdrawal from the tank-tank of a quantity (approximately 3 liters) of rinsing liquid which allows the cleaning of the bowl possibly after several calls on the pump.

Au fur et à mesure des utilisations ultérieures la cuve-­réservoir se remplit et reçoit les effluents liquides et solides correspondant à l'usage de la cabine./As and when subsequent uses the tank-tank fills and receives the liquid and solid effluents corresponding to the use of the cabin./

La cuve-réservoir comporte l'addition de produits permettant de teinter très fortement le liquide accumulé, par exemple en bleu foncé ainsi que des produits à action désinfectante et/ou déodorante ; de sorte que à chaque utilisation la cuvette peut être nettoyée par récupération et recyclage du liquide stocké dans la cuve-réservoir, correspondant à la faible quantité du liquide initial et aux effluents liquides (urines) déposés lors des utilisation successives.The tank-tank includes the addition of products making it possible to very strongly tint the accumulated liquid, for example in dark blue as well as products with disinfecting and / or deodorant action; so that each use the bowl can be cleaned by recovery and recycling of the liquid stored in the tank-tank, corresponding to the small amount of the initial liquid and the liquid effluents (urine) deposited during successive uses.

Le produit d'addition est prévu autodégradable rapidement dans le temps de façon à permettre l'évacuation des effluents dans les eaux vannes absorbées et traitées par les stations d'épuration.The additive is expected to self-degrade rapidly over time so as to allow the evacuation of effluents in the wastewater absorbed and treated by the purification stations.

Ainsi en fin d'un cycle normal d'utilisation, le réservoir étant proche de son coefficient de remplissage maximum (ce qui peut être détecté éventuellement de l'extérieur par des système de mesure de niveau), il est possible de réactiver la cabine par un simple échange de la cartouche amovible que constitue la cuve-réservoir.Thus at the end of a normal use cycle, the tank being close to its maximum filling coefficient (which can possibly be detected from the outside by level measurement systems), it is possible to reactivate the cabin by a simple exchange of the removable cartridge that constitutes the tank-tank.

A cet effet il suffit, un ensemble de manipulations étant amené sur le site, par exemple un camion muni d'un bras de grue, de déposer à proximité immédiate de la cabine en fin de cycle un réservoir nouveau et sensiblement vide, mais contenant la quantité initiale de liquide de rinçage et les produits additifs, ce réservoir étant transporté fermé, la trappe étant mise en place sur son ouverture supérieure; après arrivée sur le site la nouvelle cuve-réservoir est mise en position active par dégagement de la trappe.For this purpose it suffices, a set of manipulations being brought to the site, for example a truck provided with a crane arm, to deposit in the immediate vicinity of the cabin at the end of the cycle a new and substantially empty tank containing the initial quantity of rinsing liquid and additive products, this tank being transported closed, the hatch being placed on its upper opening; after arriving on site the new tank-tank is put in the active position by releasing the hatch.

Après quoi le bras de levage déplace la cabine voisine en fin de cycle, et dont la cuve-réservoir pleine reste en place, ce qui peut être fait aisément après simple désolidarisation de la pompe 25 au niveau de la prise de raccordement 23 ; et la cabine soulevée peut être aisément rapportée et amenée en position d'encastrement par rapport à la cuve-réservoir nouvelle qui est située immédiatement à proximité, le raccordement de la pompe sur la prise de cette nouvelle cuve-­réservoir suffisant à mettre l'ensemble en position de fonctionnement.After which the lifting arm moves the neighboring cabin at the end of the cycle, and whose full tank remains in place, which can be done easily after simple separation of the pump 25 at the connection socket 23; and the raised cabin can be easily attached and brought into the installation position relative to the new tank-tank which is located immediately nearby, the connection of the pump to the socket of this new tank-tank sufficient to put the assembly in operating position.

La cuve-réservoir précédente et donc sensiblement remplie peut alors être obturée par mise en place de sa trappe et l'ensemble ainsi fermé peut être déplacé en vue de son évacuation sur le plateau de l'engin de transport et de manutention.The preceding tank tank and therefore substantially filled can then be closed by fitting its hatch and the assembly thus closed can be moved with a view to its evacuation on the platform of the transport and handling machine.

On peut ainsi remettre en service une cabine en fin de cycle par simple échange standard de sa cuve-réservoir, en évitant les désagréments du système traditionnel entraînant le déplacement sur le lieu d'exploitation du vidangeur, à savoir coût élevé pour un faible volume d'effluents traités, indé­pendamment du bruit et des odeurs désagréables, au milieu précisément d'une concentration de personnes.It is thus possible to put a cabin back into service at the end of the cycle by simple standard exchange of its tank-tank, avoiding the inconveniences of the traditional system causing the travel to the place of operation of the emptier, ie high cost for a small volume of effluent treated, regardless of noise and unpleasant odors, precisely in the midst of a concentration of people.

La cabine sanitaire selon l'invention sera donc applicable chaque fois que l'on voudra mettre à la disposition d'une population, quelle que soit son importance, un minimum de confort sanitaire dans des lieux dépourvus d'équipement, cette mise en place pouvant être effectuée très rapidement et laissée disponible sur le site pendant tout le temps nécessaire au séjour de la population desservie.The sanitary cabin according to the invention will therefore be applicable whenever it is desired to make available to a population, whatever its size, a minimum of sanitary comfort in places devoid of equipment, this installation being able to be carried out very quickly and left available on the site for the entire time necessary for the stay of the population served.

Envariante, la cartouche pourra être montée amovible et déplaçable sur rails en vue de son extraction par coulissement horizontal, à la manière d'un simple tiroir, ceci avant sa déconnection et son enlèvement suivi de la mise en place d'une nouvelle cartouche reconnectée et glissée à son tour en place sur rails vers sa position active, sous le récepteur et à l'intérieur de la cabine.Variant, the cartridge can be mounted removable and movable on rails for its extraction by horizontal sliding, like a simple drawer, this before its disconnection and removal followed by the installation of a new reconnected cartridge and in turn slid into place on rails to its active position, under the receiver and inside the cabin.
