Description
TITRE : Siphon pour évier ou similaire.TITLE: Siphon for sink or similar.
La présente invention concerne un siphon pour évier ou similaire.The present invention relates to a siphon for sink or the like.
Par évier, il faut entendre tout type de réceptacle ou bassin percé d'un trou pour l'évacuation des eaux, ledit trou étant relié à une canalisation, elle-même raccordée à un siphon.By sink is meant any type of receptacle or basin pierced with a hole for the evacuation of water, said hole being connected to a pipe, itself connected to a siphon.
Les siphons sont des dispositifs disposés sur des canalisations d'évacuation et servent principalement à empêcher la communication entre l'air vicié et l'air ambiant. Cela étant, lesdits siphons s'avèrent également pratiques pour récupérer des objets introduits par le trou d'évacuation des eaux ou même éventuellement pour nettoyer la canalisation reliant l'évier audit siphon.Siphons are devices arranged on drainage pipes and are mainly used to prevent communication between stale air and ambient air. That said, said siphons also prove to be practical for recovering objects introduced through the water evacuation hole or even possibly for cleaning the pipe connecting the sink to said siphon.
A cet effet, ledit siphon comporte une partie supérieure, et une partie inférieure, cette dernière étant notamment destinée à servir de réservoir aux objets introduits par ledit trou d'évacuation. De manière à accéder à ladite partie inférieure, il est connu des dispositifs permettant de visser entre elles lesdites parties inférieure et supérieure qui comportent un taraudage ou un filetage.To this end, said siphon has an upper part, and a lower part, the latter being in particular intended to serve as a reservoir for objects introduced through said discharge hole. In order to access said lower part, devices are known for screwing together said lower and upper parts which include a thread or a thread.
Ces dispositifs présentent cependant différents inconvénients parmi lesquels on peut noter l'obligation pour l'utilisateur d'utiliser des outils spécifiques pour le démontage ce qui peut contraindre dans la pratique l'utilisateur à recourir au service d'un plombier.These devices have however various drawbacks among which one can note the obligation for the user to use specific tools for dismantling which can force in practice the user to resort to the service of a plumber.
Ce type de liaison entre les parties supérieure et inférieure présente également un défaut d'étanchéité, en effet, la pression exercée sur le joint dépend dans ces dispositifs à vis du nombre de tours de vis effectué par l'utilisateur. Ainsi, si l'utilisateur visse trop la partie inférieure sur la partie supérieure, il pourra en résulter une déformation irréversible du joint due à une pression exercée trop forte. Dans le cas contraire, si l'utilisateur ne visse pas assez ladite partie inférieure, il pourra en résulter des problèmes de fuite, ledit joint d'étanchéité ne pouvant remplir son office puisque non suffisamment plaqué sur les parois des deux parties supérieure et inférieure.This type of connection between the upper and lower parts also has a leak, in fact, the pressure exerted on the joint depends in these devices on the number of turns of the screw made by the user. Thus, if the user screws the lower part too much onto the upper part, it may result in an irreversible deformation of the seal due to too strong pressure. Otherwise, if the user does not screw enough said lower part, it may result in leakage problems, said seal can not fulfill its function since not sufficiently pressed against the walls of the two upper and lower parts.
De plus, dans le cas où les parois des parties supérieure et
inférieure venant en contact avec le joint ne sont pas lisses, ledit joint épouse localement les déformations desdites parois. Cela étant, en cas de dévissage puis de revissage, les déformations locales du joint ne sont plus disposées au niveau des déformations locales des parois, ce qui entraîne là encore des défauts d'étanchéité.In addition, in the case where the walls of the upper parts and lower coming into contact with the joint are not smooth, said joint locally conforms to the deformations of said walls. However, in the event of unscrewing and then re-screwing, the local deformations of the joint are no longer arranged at the level of the local deformations of the walls, which again leads to leaks.
La présente invention a pour but de proposer un siphon pour évier ou similaire qui pallie les inconvénients précités et permet une désolidarisation manuelle des parties supérieure et inférieure du siphon sans nécessiter de recourir à des outils. Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un siphon pour évier ou similaire qui permet de désolidariser partiellement ou totalement ladite partie supérieure de ladite partie inférieure.The present invention aims to provide a siphon for sink or the like which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks and allows manual separation of the upper and lower parts of the siphon without requiring the use of tools. Another object of the present invention is to provide a siphon for sink or the like which makes it possible to partially or totally separate said upper part from said lower part.
Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un siphon pour éviter ou similaire qui comporte des moyens pour assurer le centrage des parties inférieure et supérieure entre elles de manière à faciliter leur solidarisation.Another object of the present invention is to provide a siphon for avoiding or the like which comprises means for ensuring the centering of the lower and upper parts between them so as to facilitate their joining.
Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un siphon pour évier ou similaire dans lequel ledit joint d'étanchéité subit un écrasement contrôlé et reproductible à chaque fermeture du siphon de manière à assurer une étanchéité totale dudit siphon.Another object of the present invention is to provide a siphon for sink or the like in which said seal undergoes a controlled and reproducible crushing each time the siphon is closed so as to ensure total tightness of said siphon.
D'autres buts et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui va suivre qui n'est donnée qu'à titre indicatif et qui n'a pas pour but de la limiter.Other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear during the description which follows which is given only for information and which is not intended to limit it.
Ladite invention concerne un siphon pour évier ou similaire comportant une partie supérieure et une partie inférieure pivotante, des moyens de liaison entre lesdites parties inférieure et supérieure et un joint d'étanchéité. Selon l'invention, lesdits moyens de liaison comprennent :Said invention relates to a siphon for sink or the like comprising an upper part and a pivoting lower part, connecting means between said lower and upper parts and a seal. According to the invention, said connecting means comprise:
- au moins une charnière permettant le pivotement de ladite partie inférieure autour de l'axe de ladite charnière et, - des moyens de verrouillage entre lesdites parties inférieure et supérieure, lesdits moyens de liaison permettant un centrage de ladite partie
inférieure avec ladite partie supérieure du siphon et un écrasement du joint d'étanchéité lorsque les deux parties sont liées.- at least one hinge allowing the pivoting of said lower part about the axis of said hinge and, - locking means between said lower and upper parts, said connecting means allowing centering of said part lower with said upper part of the siphon and crushing of the seal when the two parts are linked.
L'invention vise également un dispositif d'évacuation d'eaux usées équipé d'un siphon tel que précité. Elle sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description suivante, accompagnée des dessins en annexe qui en font partie intégrante et parmi lesquels :The invention also relates to a device for discharging waste water equipped with a siphon as mentioned above. It will be better understood on reading the following description, accompanied by the attached drawings which form an integral part thereof and among which:
- la figure 1 illustre, selon une vue de coupe schématique un exemple de réalisation du siphon conforme à l'invention, - la figure 2 illustre, selon une vue en perspective l'exemple de réalisation représenté à la figure 1 précédente.- Figure 1 illustrates, in a schematic sectional view an embodiment of the siphon according to the invention, - Figure 2 illustrates, in a perspective view the embodiment shown in Figure 1 above.
La présente invention est relative à un siphon 1 pour évier ou similaire. Il s'agit par exemple d'un siphon destiné à équiper des canalisations d'évacuation d'eaux usées, il sera ainsi particulièrement adapté dans des locaux professionnels ou privés, à des cuisines ou encore des salles de bain.The present invention relates to a siphon 1 for sink or the like. It is for example a siphon intended to equip waste water evacuation pipes, it will thus be particularly suitable in professional or private premises, in kitchens or even bathrooms.
Comme représenté aux figures 1 et 2, ledit siphon 1 pour évier ou similaire comporte une partie supérieure 2 et une partie inférieure 3 pivotante. Ladite partie inférieure 3 est notamment destinée à constituer un réservoir accessible permettant à un utilisateur de nettoyer ledit siphon 1 ainsi que les canalisations auxquelles ce dernier est raccordé ou éventuellement de récupérer des objets stockés dans ledit réservoir.As shown in Figures 1 and 2, said siphon 1 for sink or the like has an upper part 2 and a lower part 3 pivoting. Said lower part 3 is in particular intended to constitute an accessible tank allowing a user to clean said siphon 1 as well as the pipes to which the latter is connected or possibly to recover objects stored in said tank.
De manière à rendre ledit réservoir accessible, ledit siphon 1 comporte des moyens de liaison 4 entre lesdites parties inférieure 3 et supérieure 2. En se reportant plus particulièrement à la figure 1 , on voit qu'il est disposé un joint d'étanchéité 5, notamment dans une gorge circulaire, entre lesdites parois inférieure 3 et supérieure 2 de manière à éviter toute fuite.So as to make said tank accessible, said siphon 1 comprises connection means 4 between said lower 3 and upper parts 2. Referring more particularly to FIG. 1, it can be seen that there is a seal 5, in particular in a circular groove, between said lower 3 and upper 2 walls so as to avoid any leakage.
Les moyens de liaison 4 comprennent au moins une charnièreThe connecting means 4 comprise at least one hinge
6 permettant le pivotement et le guidage de ladite partie inférieure 3 autour de l'axe de ladite charnière 6. Cette charnière comprend deux éléments 10 et 11 , en saillie vers l'extérieur du siphon, assujettis respectivement à ladite paroi
inférieure 3 et à ladite paroi supérieure 2 et permettant leur guidage lors de leur pivotement.6 allowing the pivoting and the guiding of said lower part 3 around the axis of said hinge 6. This hinge comprises two elements 10 and 11, projecting towards the outside of the siphon, subject respectively to said wall lower 3 and said upper wall 2 and allowing their guidance during their pivoting.
Lesdits éléments 10 et 11 sont assemblés de manière à ce que l'un puisse pivoter dans l'autre, et définissent l'axe de charnière 6. En se reportant à la figure 2, on voit également que ledit élément 10 se présente sous la forme d'un étrier ou chape, et comporte deux rainures 12 internes latérales, notamment ouvertes, présentant éventuellement un léger rétreint au niveau de leur ouverture, tel qu'en prévoyant un bourrelet rétrécissant l'ouverture, permettant l'introduction, notamment en force, d'ergots 13 dudit élément 11 , constituant un pivot.Said elements 10 and 11 are assembled so that one can pivot in the other, and define the hinge axis 6. Referring to FIG. 2, it can also be seen that said element 10 is present under the shape of a stirrup or yoke, and has two internal lateral grooves 12, in particular open, possibly having a slight constriction at their opening, such as by providing a bead narrowing the opening, allowing the introduction, in particular in force , pins 13 of said element 11, constituting a pivot.
Lesdites rainures 12 et ergots 13 coopèrent ensemble de manière à ce que lesdits ergots pivotent dans ladite rainure, cette dernière formant un berceau pour chaque ergot.Said grooves 12 and lugs 13 cooperate together so that said lugs pivot in said groove, the latter forming a cradle for each lug.
Il est également possible de retirer lesdits ergots 13 desdites rainures 12 de manière à désarticuler ladite charnière 6 en séparant lesdits éléments 10 et 11. Ce mode de réalisation avantageux dans lequel la charnière 6 est désarticulable permet de séparer totalement ladite partie inférieure 3 de ladite partie supérieure 2 de manière par exemple à la nettoyer dans un bac. Cela étant, dans d'autres modes de réalisation, ladite charnière 6 composée des éléments 10 et 11 pourrait ne pas être désarticulée.It is also possible to remove said lugs 13 from said grooves 12 so as to disarticulate said hinge 6 by separating said elements 10 and 11. This advantageous embodiment in which the hinge 6 is disarticulable makes it possible to completely separate said lower part 3 from said part upper 2 so as for example to clean it in a tank. However, in other embodiments, said hinge 6 composed of elements 10 and 11 may not be dislocated.
Lesdits moyens de liaison 4 comportent en outre des moyens de verrouillage 8 entre les parties inférieure 3 et supérieure 2. En se reportant à la figure 1 , on voit que lesdits moyens de verrouillage 8 sont constitués d'un clip 9.Said connecting means 4 also comprise locking means 8 between the lower 3 and upper 2 parts. Referring to FIG. 1, it can be seen that said locking means 8 consist of a clip 9.
Ce clip 9 comprend trois éléments, une base 17, se présentant sous la forme d'un étrier ou chape, en saillie vers l'extérieur du siphon, assujettie à l'une des parties inférieure 3 ou supérieure 2, et de préférence la partie inférieure 3, un plot 14, en saillie vers l'extérieur du siphon, assujetti à l'autre partie, de préférence la partie supérieure 2, et un élément de verrouillage 15, globalement en forme de C inversé, correspondant en creux
audit plot, monté en pivot avec ladite base 17 et coopérant au moyen d'une butée 16 avec ledit plot 14.This clip 9 comprises three elements, a base 17, in the form of a stirrup or yoke, projecting towards the outside of the siphon, subject to one of the lower 3 or upper 2 parts, and preferably the part lower 3, a stud 14, projecting towards the outside of the siphon, subject to the other part, preferably the upper part 2, and a locking element 15, generally in the shape of an inverted C, corresponding to a hollow to said stud, pivotally mounted with said base 17 and cooperating by means of a stop 16 with said stud 14.
Selon le mode de réalisation de la figure 1 , le clipsage est réalisé en force. A cet effet, l'utilisateur effectue le pivotement dudit élément de verrouillage 15 jusqu'à ce que la butée 16 entre en contact avec ledit plot 14. L'utilisateur exerce ensuite une pression de manière à déformer légèrement ledit élément de verrouillage 15 ce qui permet de placer ladite butée 16 en blocage sur ledit plot 14. A ce niveau, la partie inférieure 3 du siphon 1 est verrouillée sur la partie supérieure 2. II est important de signaler dans le cas d'un clipsage en force que l'on pourra utiliser de préférence un clip 9 réalisé en matière plastique qui pressera, de par sa structure, la butée 16 sur le plot 14.According to the embodiment of Figure 1, the clipping is performed by force. To this end, the user pivots said locking element 15 until the stop 16 comes into contact with said stud 14. The user then exerts pressure so as to slightly deform said locking element 15 which allows to place said stop 16 in blocking on said stud 14. At this level, the lower part 3 of the siphon 1 is locked on the upper part 2. It is important to note in the case of a force clipping that may preferably use a clip 9 made of plastic which, by its structure, will press the stop 16 on the stud 14.
De même, on pourra également concevoir ladite charnière 6 et même plus généralement ledit siphon 1 entièrement en plastique, qui présente notamment l'avantage d'un matériau aisément lavable et résistant aux attaques chimiques des composants des eaux usées, et aux propriétés élastiques intéressantes.Likewise, it is also possible to design said hinge 6 and even more generally said siphon 1 entirely of plastic, which has in particular the advantage of an easily washable material and resistant to chemical attack by the components of the wastewater, and with interesting elastic properties.
A l'instar de ladite charnière 6, il est également possible d'envisager que ledit élément de verrouillage 15 puisse être séparé de sa base 17. A cette fin, on pourra également utiliser un système d'assemblage entre ledit élément 15 et ladite base 17, du même principe que celui décrit pour ladite charnière 6, à l'aide encore une fois d'ergots, constituant un pivot, coopérant dans des rainures, constituant des berceaux, pratiquées dans ladite base 17. Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite avoir accès au réservoir, il fait pivoter ledit élément de verrouillage 15, ce qui entraîne la séparation entre ladite partie inférieure 3 et ladite partie supérieure 2 et ensuite fait pivoter ladite partie inférieure 3 autour de l'axe de la charnière 6. Le déverrouillage et la séparation desdites parties supérieure 2 et inférieure 3 sont donc réalisables manuellement sans nécessiter d'outil.Like said hinge 6, it is also possible to envisage that said locking element 15 can be separated from its base 17. To this end, it is also possible to use an assembly system between said element 15 and said base 17, of the same principle as that described for said hinge 6, again using lugs, constituting a pivot, cooperating in grooves, constituting cradles, formed in said base 17. When the user wishes to have access to the reservoir, it pivots said locking element 15, which causes the separation between said lower part 3 and said upper part 2 and then rotates said lower part 3 about the axis of the hinge 6. Unlocking and separation said upper 2 and lower 3 parts can therefore be produced manually without requiring a tool.
Inversement, lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite refermer ledit siphon
1, il fait pivoter ladite partie inférieure 3 autour de l'axe de la charnière 6. Lorsque ladite partie inférieure 3 arrive contre ladite partie supérieure 2, les axes des deux parties coïncident, grâce à la structure, décrite ci-dessus, de ladite charnière 6 qui permet un guidage et par suite un centrage automatique des deux parties entre elles.Conversely, when the user wishes to close said siphon 1, it pivots said lower part 3 about the axis of the hinge 6. When said lower part 3 comes against said upper part 2, the axes of the two parts coincide, thanks to the structure, described above, of said hinge 6 which allows guiding and therefore automatic centering of the two parts together.
L'utilisateur poursuit ensuite le pivotement de ladite partie 3 comme décrit précédemment, ce qui permet un écrasement du joint 5. Compte tenu du fait que la pression exercée par l'intermédiaire dudit clip 9 est toujours la même, l'écrasement du joint est constant. De plus, puisque les parties inférieure et supérieure sont alignées entre elles toujours de la même manière, l'écrasement est également homogène.The user then continues the pivoting of said part 3 as described above, which allows the seal 5 to be crushed. Taking into account that the pressure exerted by means of said clip 9 is always the same, the seal is crushed constant. In addition, since the lower and upper parts are aligned with each other always in the same way, the crushing is also homogeneous.
On peut également noter que de manière à mieux retenir ledit joint d'étanchéité 5, les rebords des parties inférieure 3 et supérieure 2 peuvent être encastrables, formant ladite gorge circulaire. Cette caractéristique permet également d'améliorer le centrage desdites parties inférieure 3 et supérieure 2 entre elles, et leur étanchéité.It can also be noted that in order to better retain said seal 5, the edges of the lower 3 and upper 2 parts can be fitted, forming said circular groove. This characteristic also makes it possible to improve the centering of said lower 3 and upper 2 parts between them, and their sealing.
En se reportant à l'une ou l'autre des figures 1 et 2, on voit que dans l'exemple de réalisation, le siphon 1 comporte un clip 9 et une charnière 6. Cela étant, dans d'autres modes de réalisation, et en fonction notamment de la forme de ladite partie inférieure 3, on pourra utiliser un nombre différent de clips 9 et de charnières 6, et notamment si l'on utilise une partie inférieure 3 dont le fond est sensiblement quadrangulaire, on pourra utiliser deux charnières 6 disposées sur un côté et deux clips 9 disposés sur le côté opposé. Rappelons également que l'invention concerne en outre un dispositif d'évacuation d'eaux usées équipé d'un siphon 1 tel que précité.Referring to one or the other of FIGS. 1 and 2, it can be seen that in the embodiment, the siphon 1 has a clip 9 and a hinge 6. However, in other embodiments, and depending in particular on the shape of said lower part 3, a different number of clips 9 and hinges 6 may be used, and in particular if a lower part 3 is used whose bottom is substantially quadrangular, two hinges may be used 6 arranged on one side and two clips 9 arranged on the opposite side. It should also be recalled that the invention also relates to a device for discharging waste water equipped with a siphon 1 as mentioned above.
Naturellement, d'autres modes de réalisation, à la portée de l'homme de l'art, auraient pu être envisagés sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention définie par les revendications ci-après ;
