Description

L'invention concerne le domaine de la conception et de la réalisation des piscines. Plus précisément, l'invention concerne le domaine des couvertures de piscines.The invention relates to the field of design and construction of swimming pools. More specifically, the invention relates to the field of pool covers.

Dans le domaine de l'invention, les normes de réglementations en matière de sécurité deviennent de plus en plus strictes.In the field of the invention, the standards of safety regulations are becoming more and more strict.

A ce titre, il a récemment été proposé que les piscines construites ou installées doivent être pourvues d'un dispositif de sécurité destiné à prévenir les noyades, au plus tard à la mise en eau, ou, si les travaux de mise en place des dispositifs nécessitent une mise en eau préalable, au plus tard de l'achèvement des travaux de la piscine.As such, it has recently been proposed that built or installed swimming pools should be provided with a safety device to prevent drowning, at the latest at impoundment, or, if the work of setting up the devices require a pre-watering, no later than the completion of the work of the pool.

Le dispositif de sécurité en question est constitué par :

  • une barrière de protection ;
  • une couverture ;
  • un abri ou une alarme.
The safety device in question consists of:
  • a protective barrier;
  • coverage ;
  • a shelter or an alarm.

Les textes normatifs et réglementaires précisent que :

  • les barrières de protection doivent être réalisées, construites ou installées de manière à empêcher le passage d'enfants de moins de cinq ans sans l'aide d'un adulte, à résister aux actions d'un enfant de moins de cinq ans, notamment en ce qui concerne le système de verrouillage de l'accès, et à ne pas provoquer de blessure ;
  • les couvertures doivent être réalisées, construites ou installées de façon à empêcher l'immersion involontaire d'enfants de moins de cinq ans, à résister au franchissement d'une personne adulte et à ne pas provoquer de blessure ;
  • les abris doivent être réalisés, construits ou installés de manière à ne pas provoquer de blessure et être tels que, lorsqu'il est fermé, le bassin de la piscine est inaccessible aux enfants de moins de cinq ans ;
  • les alarmes doivent être réalisées, construites ou installées de manière que toutes les commandes d'activation et de désactivation ne doivent pas pouvoir être utilisées par des enfants de moins de cinq ans. Les systèmes de détection doivent pouvoir détecter tout franchissement par un enfant de moins de cinq ans et déclencher un dispositif d'alerte constitué d'une sirène. Ils ne doivent pas se déclencher de façon intempestive.
The normative and regulatory texts specify that:
  • protective barriers must be constructed, constructed or installed in such a way as to prevent the passage of children under the age of five without the assistance of an adult, to resist the actions of a child under five years of age, including regarding the locking system of access, and not to cause injury;
  • the covers must be made, constructed or installed to prevent the inadvertent immersion of children under five, to resist the crossing of an adult and not to cause injury;
  • shelters must be constructed, constructed or installed in such a way as not to cause injury and be such that, when closed, the pool is inaccessible to children under five;
  • Alarms must be constructed, constructed or installed so that all activation and deactivation commands must not be able to be used by children under five years of age. Detection systems must be able to detect any crossing by a child under five years of age and trigger a warning device consisting of a siren. They must not fire unexpectedly.

Concernant les couvertures, plusieurs techniques existent actuellement parmi lesquelles :

  • les couvertures à barres : un matériau souple s'étend entre des barres destinées à prendre appui sur les bordures de la piscine ;
  • les couvertures à lames (généralement en PVC) articulées entre elles.
Concerning the covers, several techniques currently exist among which:
  • bar covers: a flexible material extends between bars intended to rest on the edges of the pool;
  • blade covers (usually PVC) hinged together.

Classiquement, la rétractation de ces éléments de couverture est obtenu grâce à un arbre d'enroulement motorisé prévu à une des extrémités de la piscine monté dans une fosse ou non.Conventionally, the retraction of these cover elements is obtained through a motorized winding shaft provided at one end of the pool mounted in a pit or not.

Les couvertures à barres s'opposent à l'immersion d'un corps du fait de la fixation des barres le long de la piscine qui maintiennent tendu le matériau souple.The bar covers are opposed to the immersion of a body due to the fixing of bars along the pool that keep stretched the flexible material.

Les couvertures motorisées sont quant à elles maintenues déployées à la surface de l'eau et s'opposent à l'immersion d'un corps par l'inertie du moteur.The motorized covers are maintained on the surface of the water and oppose the immersion of a body by the inertia of the engine.

Actuellement, les dispositifs d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture, classiquement désignés par le terme « enrouleurs », sont disposés dans les piscines selon différentes configurations parmi lesquelles :

  • l'enrouleur est installé sous le fond de la piscine, éventuellement sous un caillebotis ;
  • l'enrouleur est installé au fond de la piscine, dans un caisson avec une trappe automatique ;
  • l'enrouleur est installé juste en dessous du niveau d'eau ;
  • l'enrouleur est encastré dans le mur, avec possibilité d'habillage à l'avant ;
  • l'enrouleur est installé au niveau du sol dans le mur ;
  • l'enrouleur est installé au fond de la piscine, le moteur étant placé au dessus du niveau d'eau et étant relié à l'arbre par une chaîne (le mur de la piscine n'est pas perforé) ;
  • l'enrouleur est placé sous le fond de la piscine en position centrale, deux volets s'enroulant sur un même arbre ;
  • l'enrouleur est installé dans un caisson séparé derrière le bassin avec moteur dans un boîtier en PVC le protégeant de l'eau par un double système d'étanchéité.
Currently, the winding / unwinding devices of the cover, conventionally referred to as "reels", are arranged in the pools in various configurations, among which:
  • the reel is installed under the bottom of the pool, possibly under a grating;
  • the reel is installed at the bottom of the pool, in a box with an automatic hatch;
  • the reel is installed just below the water level;
  • the winder is recessed in the wall, with possibility of dressing at the front;
  • the winder is installed at ground level in the wall;
  • the reel is installed at the bottom of the pool, the engine being placed above the water level and being connected to the shaft by a chain (the wall of the pool is not perforated);
  • the reel is placed under the bottom of the pool in central position, two shutters winding on the same tree;
  • the winder is installed in a separate box behind the pond with motor in a PVC housing protecting it from the water by a double sealing system.

Pour les configurations selon lesquelles les enrouleurs ne sont pas placés dans des caissons, plusieurs inconvénients apparaissent :

  • enrouleur visible et donc inesthétique ;
  • dangerosité potentielle, le contact direct avec l'enrouleur étant possible.
For configurations in which the reels are not placed in boxes, several disadvantages appear:
  • visible winder and therefore unsightly;
  • potential danger, direct contact with the retractor being possible.

Pour les configurations selon lesquelles les enrouleurs sont placés dans un caisson, que ce soit sous le fond de la piscine, ou dans une paroi de la piscine, le caisson nécessite des opérations spécifiques de maçonnerie et de mise en place.For configurations in which the reels are placed in a box, either under the bottom of the pool, or in a wall of the pool, the box requires specific masonry operations and implementation.

Ceci tend à augmenter les temps de réalisation et/ou les coûts de fabrication.This tends to increase the production times and / or manufacturing costs.

Parallèlement, les échelles inox qui permettaient de sortir du bassin des piscines (ou de descendre dans celui-ci) tendent à être remplacées par des escaliers qui sont intégrés sur toute la largeur de la piscine et réalisés en maçonnerie traditionnelle.At the same time, the stainless steel ladders that allowed the swimming pool to come out of the pool (or sink into it) tend to be replaced by stairs that are integrated over the entire width of the pool and made of traditional masonry.

L'invention a notamment pour objectif de proposer une technique d'intégration des dispositifs d'enroulement/déroulement de couverture dans la structure d'une piscine qui pallie les inconvénients des configurations de l'art antérieur et qui s'inscrive dans les nouvelles tendances de conception de piscine.The object of the invention is in particular to propose a technique for integrating winding / cover unwinding devices in the structure of a swimming pool which overcomes the disadvantages of the configurations of the prior art and which is part of the new trends. of pool design.

L'invention a également pour objectif de fournir une telle technique qui permette de limiter les opérations de maçonnerie spécifiques à l'intégration du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture.Another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which makes it possible to limit the specific masonry operations to the integration of the winding device / unfolding of the cover.

L'invention a aussi pour objectif de fournir une telle technique qui soit fiable et sécurisée, tant lorsque la couverture est en service que lorsqu'elle est enroulée.The invention also aims to provide such a technique that is reliable and secure, both when the cover is in use than when it is wound.

Un autre objectif de l'invention est de fournir une telle technique qui procure un résultat avantageux esthétiquement.Another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which provides an aesthetically advantageous result.

Encore un autre objectif de l'invention est de fournir une telle technique qui soit simple de conception et facile à mettre en oeuvre.Yet another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which is simple in design and easy to implement.

Ces objectifs, ainsi que d'autres qui apparaîtront par la suite, sont atteints grâce à l'invention, comme définie par la revendication 1, qui a pour objet une piscine comprenant un escalier dont au moins une marche s'étend sur toute la longueur d'un côté de ladite piscine et présente un volume interne, caractérisée en ce que la piscine comprend un dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement d'une couverture, et ledit dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement est logé dans ledit volume interne de ladite marche, un moyen d'accès audit volume interne de ladite marche étant monté mobile entre une position de fermeture et une position d'ouverture au moins partielle permettant le passage de ladite couverture.These objectives, as well as others which will appear later, are achieved thanks to the invention, as defined by claim 1, which relates to a pool comprising a stairway, at least one step extends over the entire length on one side of said pool and has an internal volume, characterized in that the pool comprises a device for winding / unwinding a cover, and said winding / unwinding device is housed in said internal volume of said step, means for accessing said internal volume of said step being movably mounted between a closed position and an at least partial opening position permitting the passage of said cover.

Le document DE 20 2004 018 882 U divulgue les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1.The document DE 20 2004 018 882 U discloses the features of the preamble of claim 1.

L'invention propose donc une intégration avantageuse du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement dans une piscine s'inscrivant dans la tendance actuelle selon laquelle elle inclut un escalier.The invention thus proposes an advantageous integration of the winding / unwinding device in a swimming pool which is part of the current trend according to which it includes a staircase.

En effet, l'escalier (et donc les marches qui le composent) sont réalisées en maçonnerie traditionnelle. Or, en réalisant au moins l'une des marches avec des dimensions appropriées, celle-ci forme directement un caisson apte à recevoir le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de réaliser de nouvelles opérations de maçonnerie spécifiques à la mise en place du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement.Indeed, the staircase (and therefore the steps that make it up) are made of traditional masonry. However, by performing at least one of the steps with appropriate dimensions, it directly forms a box capable of receiving the winding device / unfolding of the cover, without it being necessary to carry out new masonry operations specific to the implementation of the winding / unwinding device.

Actuellement, ces opérations de maçonnerie spécifiques à la mise en place sont effectivement réalisées, ceci dans le but de maçonner un caisson à l'extrémité de la piscine opposée à celle présentant l'escalier.Currently, these masonry operations specific to the implementation are actually performed, this for the purpose of masonry a box at the end of the pool opposite to that having the staircase.

On note que, dans ce cas, soit le caisson correspondant réduit le volume du bassin, soit les dimensions de la piscine sont augmentées de façon à prendre en compte le volume du caisson.Note that in this case, either the corresponding box reduces the volume of the basin, or the dimensions of the pool are increased to take into account the volume of the box.

De plus, l'invention permet d'intégrer le dispositif d' enroulement/déroulement de façon esthétique de par la discrétion du logement.In addition, the invention makes it possible to integrate the winding / unwinding device in an aesthetic manner by the discretion of the housing.

En outre, comme cela va apparaître plus clairement par la suite, une technique selon l'invention assure un excellent niveau de fiabilité et de sécurisation, notamment en ce que le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture est rendu inaccessible lorsque la couverture est enroulée.In addition, as will become clearer later, a technique according to the invention ensures an excellent level of reliability and security, in particular in that the winding device / unwinding of the cover is rendered inaccessible when the cover is wound.

Selon une solution avantageuse, ledit volume interne est celui de la marche la plus haute dudit escalier.According to an advantageous solution, said internal volume is that of the highest step of said staircase.

Il est en effet avantageux de mettre à profit le volume interne de cette marche pour loger le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture, cette marche étant, selon une demande courante des utilisateurs, réalisée plus large que les autres pour pouvoir s'allonger dans seulement quelques centimètres d'eau tout en prenant un bain de soleil.It is indeed advantageous to take advantage of the internal volume of this step to accommodate the device for winding / unfolding the cover, this step being, according to a current demand of users, made wider than the others to be able to lie down in just a few inches of water while sunbathing.

Préférentiellement, ledit moyen d'accès s'étend en partie supérieure de ladite marche, dans un plan sensiblement horizontal.Preferably, said access means extends in the upper part of said step, in a substantially horizontal plane.

Selon une solution préférée, ledit moyen d'accès comprend un panneau s'étendant en partie supérieure de ladite marche et sur toute la longueur de celle-ci, ledit panneau étant monté coulissant sur au moins un rail solidarisé à ladite marche.According to a preferred solution, said access means comprises a panel extending in the upper part of said step and over the entire length thereof, said panel being slidably mounted on at least one rail secured to said step.

De cette façon, le moyen d'accès est susceptible d'être déplacé en limitant considérablement les contraintes dues au poids de l'eau, ce qui ne serait pas le cas par exemple lors d'un mouvement de basculement.In this way, the access means can be moved by considerably limiting the constraints due to the weight of the water, which would not be the case for example during a tilting movement.

Les moyens moteurs et les moyens de liaison des moyens moteurs au moyen d'accès peuvent de ce fait être choisis dans une conception relativement légère et donc peu coûteuse.The motor means and the means for connecting the motor means to the access means can therefore be chosen in a relatively light design and therefore inexpensive.

Dans ce cas, ladite marche comprend un muret sur lequel sont fixés au moins deux rails s'étendant préférentiellement en porte-à-faux au-dessus dudit volume interne.In this case, said step comprises a wall on which are fixed at least two rails extending preferably cantilever above said internal volume.

Ainsi, un passage sur toute la largeur de la piscine peut être préservé (entre l'extrémité des rails et la paroi de la piscine), ceci en vue du passage de la couverture.Thus, a passage across the width of the pool can be preserved (between the end of the rails and the wall of the pool), this for the passage of the cover.

De plus, lors de l'ouverture du moyen d'accès, le coulissement de celui-ci peut être effectué sur une course prévue de telle sorte que les rails restent masqués sous le moyen d'accès.In addition, when opening the access means, the sliding thereof can be performed on a race provided so that the rails remain hidden under the access means.

L'ouverture réalisée ne laisse donc alors pas apparaître les rails, produisant ainsi un meilleur effet esthétique.The opening thus made does not allow the rails to appear, thus producing a better aesthetic effect.

Avantageusement, ledit côté de ladite piscine le long duquel s'étend ladite marche porte au moins un élément d'appui sur lequel ledit moyen d'accès vient en appui dans ladite position de fermeture.Advantageously, said side of said pool along which said step extends carries at least one support element on which said access means bears in said closed position.

Le moyen d'accès est ainsi correctement soutenu dans sa position de fermeture, en particulier dans le cas d'un recours aux rails montés en porte-à-faux.The access means is thus properly supported in its closed position, in particular in the case of a recourse to rails mounted cantilever.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, ledit dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement est associé à des premiers moyens moteurs, ledit moyen d'accès étant associé à des deuxièmes moyens moteurs distincts desdits premiers moyens moteurs.According to an advantageous characteristic, said winding / unwinding device is associated with first motor means, said access means being associated with second motor means distinct from said first motor means.

On peut ainsi concevoir une décomposition des commandes du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement et du moyen d'accès plus simplement qu'avec des moyens moteurs uniques.It is thus possible to conceive a decomposition of the controls of the winding / unwinding device and the access means more simply than with single motor means.

Selon une solution préférée, ledit moyen d'accès est couplé à des moyens moteurs par au moins un moyen de liaison souple dont un brin est couplé à un premier bord dudit moyen d'accès et un autre brin est couplé à un deuxième bord opposé audit premier bord.According to a preferred solution, said access means is coupled to motor means by at least one flexible connection means one strand of which is coupled to one first edge of said access means and another strand is coupled to a second edge opposite said first edge.

On obtient un moyen simple de conception et efficace pour obtenir le coulissement du moyen d'accès, tant à l'ouverture qu'à la fermeture, ceci de façon fiable et avec des moyens mécaniques peu sensibles à l'environnement aquatique.There is obtained a simple means of design and effective to obtain the sliding of the access means, both opening and closing, this reliably and with mechanical means insensitive to the aquatic environment.

Dans ce cas, des moyens de liaison desdits moyens moteurs auxdits moyens de liaison sont avantageusement prévus au voisinage de chaque bord latéral dudit moyen d'accès.In this case, connecting means of said motor means to said connecting means are advantageously provided in the vicinity of each side edge of said access means.

On exerce de cette façon des efforts symétriques sur le moyen d'accès, contribuant ainsi à la qualité de la linéarité de son déplacement, ceci en évitant une mise en arc-boutement du moyen d'accès par rapport à ses moyens de guidage.In this way, symmetrical forces are exerted on the access means, thus contributing to the quality of the linearity of its displacement, this avoiding an arching of the access means with respect to its guide means.

Avantageusement, lesdits moyens de liaison de chaque bord latéral sont associés à des moyens moteurs communs.Advantageously, said connecting means of each lateral edge are associated with common motor means.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un mode de réalisation préférentiel de l'invention, donné à titre d'exemple illustratif et non limitatif, et des dessins annexés parmi lesquels :

  • les figures 1 et 2 sont des vues schématiques partielles d'une piscine conçue selon l'invention, le moyen d'accès au dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement étant respectivement en position de fermeture et en position d'ouverture ;

  • les figures 5 et 6 sont des vues du principe de fonctionnement des moyens d'entraînement du moyen d'accès ;
  • la figure 7 est une autre vue de dessus des moyens d'entraînement du moyen d'accès.
Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge more clearly on reading the following description of a preferred embodiment of the invention, given by way of illustrative and nonlimiting example, and the appended drawings among which:
  • the Figures 1 and 2 are partial schematic views of a swimming pool designed according to the invention, the access means to the winding / unwinding device being respectively in the closed position and in the open position;
  • the figure 3 is a detailed view of the pool illustrated by the Figures 1 and 2 ;
  • the figure 4 is a detail view from above of the means for driving the access means;
  • the Figures 5 and 6 are views of the operating principle of the drive means of the access means;
  • the figure 7 is another top view of the drive means of the access means.

Tel qu'indiqué précédemment, le principe de l'invention réside dans le fait de mettre à profit le volume interne d'une marche d'escalier s'étendant sur toute la largeur de la piscine pour loger le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement d'une couverture.As indicated above, the principle of the invention lies in the fact of taking advantage of the internal volume of a step of stairs extending over the entire width of the pool to accommodate the winding device / unwinding 'coverage.

Le principe de l'invention est illustré par les figures 1 et 2 qui montrent de façon schématique une piscine vue partiellement en coupe.The principle of the invention is illustrated by the Figures 1 and 2 which show schematically a swimming pool partially seen in section.

Tel que cela apparaît sur ces figures, un côté de la piscine est délimité par une paroi 1, le long de laquelle est réalisé un escalier 2 constitué d'une ou de plusieurs marches (ici quatre marches).As it appears in these figures, one side of the pool is delimited by a wall 1, along which is made a staircase 2 consisting of one or more steps (here four steps).

Au moins l'une des marches de l'escalier s'étend sur toute la longueur de la paroi 1, le volume interne 210 de cette marche formant logement pour un dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement 3 d'une couverture de piscine 31.At least one of the steps of the staircase extends over the entire length of the wall 1, the internal volume 210 of this step forming a housing for a winding device / unwinding 3 of a pool cover 31.

Selon le présent mode de réalisation, la marche dans le volume interne dans laquelle est logé le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement est la marche la plus haute 21 de l'escalier 2.According to the present embodiment, the step in the internal volume in which the winding / unwinding device is housed is the highest step 21 of the staircase 2.

A titre indicatif, la paroi 1 d'une piscine selon le présent mode de réalisation présente une hauteur de 1,20 m (le fil d'eau 10 se situant environ 10 cm en dessous de la hauteur de la paroi) et la marche la plus haute 21 une hauteur de 0,97 m. La largeur de la marche 21 (y inclus l'épaisseur du muret 211) est de 0,75 m.By way of indication, the wall 1 of a swimming pool according to the present embodiment has a height of 1.20 m (the water thread 10 being situated approximately 10 cm below the height of the wall) and the step highest 21 height of 0.97 m. The width of the step 21 (including the thickness of the wall 211) is 0.75 m.

Bien entendu, ces dimensions peuvent varier autant que de besoin, dans la mesure toutefois où les dimensions de la marche 21 sont telles que son volume interne 210 est suffisant pour recevoir le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement de la couverture.Of course, these dimensions can vary as much as necessary, insofar as the dimensions of the step 21 are such that its internal volume 210 is sufficient to receive the winding device / unwinding of the cover.

De plus, selon le principe de l'invention, un moyen d'accès 212 est monté sur la marche 21 dans le volume interne de laquelle le dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement est logé.In addition, according to the principle of the invention, an access means 212 is mounted on the step 21 in the internal volume of which the winding device / unwinding is housed.

Ce moyen d'accès 212 est monté mobile entre une position de fermeture (figure 1) et une position d'ouverture (figure 2) dans laquelle il autorise le passage de la couverture 31 hors du volume interne 210.This access means 212 is mounted movably between a closed position ( figure 1 ) and an open position ( figure 2 ) in which it allows the passage of the cover 31 out of the internal volume 210.

On note que le volume interne 210 de la marche 21 étant destiné à être rempli de l'eau de la piscine, des moyens de vidange 213 sont prévus au fond du volume interne de la marche de façon à pouvoir vider l'eau du volume interne en cas de besoin.Note that the internal volume 210 of the step 21 being intended to be filled with the pool water, draining means 213 are provided at the bottom of the internal volume of the step so as to drain water from the internal volume if needed.

Tel qu'illustré par les figures 1 et 2, le moyen d'accès 212 est constitué par un panneau formant le plan supérieur horizontal de la marche 21 et est monté coulissant dans son propre plan sur des rails (décrits plus en détails par la suite) solidarisés au muret 211.As illustrated by Figures 1 and 2 , the access means 212 is constituted by a panel forming the horizontal upper plane of the step 21 and is slidably mounted in its own plane on rails (described in more detail later) secured to the wall 211.

En référence à la figure 3, un rail 4 est monté au voisinage de chaque extrémité du muret 211, à l'aide de vis 41.With reference to the figure 3 a rail 4 is mounted adjacent each end of the wall 211, using screws 41.

Tel que cela apparaît sur la figure 3, les rails 4 sont montés en porte-à-faux sur le muret. En d'autres termes, l'extrémité libre des rails 4 s'étend au-dessus du volume interne, sans support.As it appears on the figure 3 , the rails 4 are mounted cantilevered on the wall. In other words, the free end of the rails 4 extends above the internal volume without support.

A titre indicatif, les rails 4 présentent une longueur telle qu'ils s'étendent sur environ la moitié de la largeur du volume interne.As an indication, the rails 4 have a length such that they extend over approximately half the width of the internal volume.

On comprend que les rails sont réalisés en un matériau et avec une épaisseur de matériau choisis pour que les rails présentent une résistance mécanique suffisante pour résister aux différentes contraintes mécaniques malgré leur montage en porte-à-faux.It is understood that the rails are made of a material and with a thickness of material chosen so that the rails have sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the various mechanical stresses despite their mounting cantilever.

Par ailleurs, la paroi 1 de la piscine porte une équerre de soutien 5 (et préférentiellement deux, voire plus) formant élément d'appui pour le moyen d'accès 212 en position de fermeture.Furthermore, the wall 1 of the pool carries a support bracket 5 (and preferably two or more) forming a support element for the access means 212 in the closed position.

Bien entendu, cette ou ces équerres sont positionnées en hauteur sur la paroi 1 de façon à présenter une surface d'appui pour la surface inférieure du moyen d'accès, c'est-à-dire sensiblement dans le prolongement des rails 4.Of course, this or these brackets are positioned in height on the wall 1 so as to have a bearing surface for the lower surface of the access means, that is to say substantially in the extension of the rails 4.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, des moyens moteurs 32 sont associés au dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement (ceux-ci étant du type à moteur immergé, le moteur d'entraînement étant placé dans le tambour d'enroulement/déroulement) et des moyens moteurs 6 sont associés aux moyens d'accès 212, les moyens moteurs 6 associés aux moyens d'accès 212 étant distincts des moyens moteurs 32 associés au dispositif d' enroulement/déroulement.According to another characteristic of the invention, motor means 32 are associated with the winding / unwinding device (these being of the type to immersed motor, the drive motor being placed in the winding drum / unwinding) and motor means 6 are associated with the access means 212, the motor means 6 associated with the access means 212 being distinct from the motor means 32 associated with the winding / unwinding device.

Tel qu'illustré par la figure 4, les moyens d'entraînement du moyen d'accès comprennent :

  • un moto-réducteur tubulaire 6 conçu pour une utilisation en immersion totale ;
  • un carter PVC insensible aux effets de l'électrolyse ;
  • des bagues d'adaptation permettant un montage facile avec tous les diamètres de tube d'enroulement (brides rondes, carrées ou rectangulaires) ;
  • un moteur 12v ou 24v prévu pour couple et vitesse élevés : 250mN à 5 tr/min environ ;
  • un arbre en acier inox 61 ;
  • un switch de réglage des fins de course internes, à mémorisation permanente ;
  • un câble d' alimentation ;
  • un coffret d'alimentation 220v, 12v ou 24v avec une carte de gestion moteur et fins de course.
As illustrated by figure 4 the drive means of the access means comprise:
  • a tubular geared motor 6 designed for use in total immersion;
  • a PVC case insensitive to the effects of electrolysis;
  • adapter rings for easy assembly with all winding tube diameters (round, square or rectangular flanges);
  • a 12v or 24v motor provided for high torque and speed: 250mN at approximately 5 rpm;
  • a stainless steel shaft 61;
  • a switch for adjusting the internal limit switches, with permanent memory;
  • a power cable;
  • a 220v, 12v or 24v power box with a motor management board and limit switches.

L'arbre inox du moto-réducteur est bridé dans un palier fixe 62. Lorsque le moto-réducteur tourne, il entraîne un axe d'une longueur de 4 à 6 mètres (correspondant à la longueur de la piscine).The stainless steel shaft of the geared motor is clamped in a fixed bearing 62. When the geared motor rotates, it drives an axis of a length of 4 to 6 meters (corresponding to the length of the pool).

De plus, les moyens d'entraînement au moyen d'accès sont portés par des platines de fixation 66 présentant une forme en équerre, et fixées d'une part sur les parois latérales de la piscine et d'autre part sur le muret 211 de la marche 21.In addition, the means for driving the access means are carried by fixing plates 66 having a square shape, and fixed on the one hand on the side walls of the pool and on the other hand on the wall 211 of walking 21.

En outre, les moyens d'entraînement du moyen d'accès comprennent des moyens de liaison couplant le moyen d'accès aux moyens moteurs correspondants.In addition, the drive means of the access means comprise connecting means coupling the access means to the corresponding motor means.

Ces moyens de liaison sont constitués par deux brins 67, 68 prenant la forme de lanières souples, réalisées en polyéthylène armé, tous deux enroulés sur le tube 61 mais avec des sens d'enroulement inversés.These connecting means are constituted by two strands 67, 68 in the form of flexible strips, made of reinforced polyethylene, both wound on the tube 61 but with reversed winding directions.

Tel qu'illustré par les figures 5 et 6, le brin 67 est solidaire par l'une de ses extrémités à l'extrémité avant 2121 du moyen d'accès 212 et le brin 68 est solidaire par l'une de ses extrémités à l'extrémité arrière 2122 du moyen d'accès 212.As illustrated by Figures 5 and 6 , the strand 67 is secured by one of its ends to the front end 2121 of the access means 212 and the strand 68 is secured by one of its ends to the rear end 2122 of the access means 212 .

Le fonctionnement d'un tel moyen d'entraînement est le suivant.The operation of such a drive means is as follows.

Lorsque le tambour d'enroulement 63 est entraîné par les moyens moteurs 6 dans le sens de rotation indiqué par la flèche F1, le lien 67 exerce une traction sur l'extrémité avant 2121 du moyen d'accès et s'enroule autour du tube, provoquant un déplacement du moyen d'accès dans la direction indiquée par la flèche F2 (correspondant ici à une opération de fermeture du moyen d'accès). Simultanément, le brin 68 se déroule à partir du tambour 63.When the winding drum 63 is driven by the drive means 6 in the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow F1, the link 67 pulls on the front end 2121 of the access means and wraps around the tube, causing the access means to move in the direction indicated by the arrow F2 (here corresponding to a closing operation of the access means). Simultaneously, the strand 68 proceeds from the drum 63.

Inversement, lorsque le tambour d'enroulement 63 est entraîné par les moyens moteurs dans le sens de rotation indiqué par la flèche F3, le brin 68 exerce une traction sur l'extrémité arrière 2122 du moyen d'accès et s'enroule autour du tube, provoquant un déplacement du moyen d'accès dans la direction indiquée par la flèche F4 (correspondant ici à une opération d'ouverture du moyen d'accès). Simultanément, le brin 67 se déroule à partir du tambour 63.Conversely, when the winding drum 63 is driven by the motor means in the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow F3, the strand 68 pulls on the rear end 2122 of the access means and wraps around the tube causing the access means to move in the direction indicated by the arrow F4 (here corresponding to an opening operation of the access means). Simultaneously, the strand 67 proceeds from the drum 63.

Par ailleurs, en référence à la figure 7, des éléments plats de protection 7 sont solidarisés sur le muret 211 et forment des surfaces de glissement pour le moyen d'accès. Le matériau d'étanchéité rapporté classiquement sur le muret (comme sur les autres parois de la piscine) et ainsi protégés des effets du frottement induit par le déplacement du moyen d'accès.Moreover, with reference to the figure 7 , flat protective elements 7 are secured to the wall 211 and form sliding surfaces for the access means. The sealing material conventionally reported on the wall (as on the other walls of the pool) and thus protected from the effects of friction induced by the displacement of the access means.

On note que tout système de synchronisation approprié est associé au dispositif qui vient d'être décrit. On prévoit notamment des capteurs fin de course (intégrés au moteur tubulaire, non représentés), de l'ouverture et de la fermeture du moyen d'accès ainsi que des capteurs fin de course de déroulement et de l'enroulement de la couverture.Note that any appropriate synchronization system is associated with the device just described. In particular, end-of-travel sensors (integrated in the tubular motor, not shown), the opening and closing of the access means as well as end-of-travel unwinding sensors and the winding of the cover are provided.

Ainsi, avec une commande unique, on obtient le fonctionnement suivant :

  • pour le déroulement de la couverture, le commutateur de commande générale est actionné en position « déroulement », ce qui déclenche l'ouverture du moyen d'accès jusqu'à ce que celui-ci agisse sur le capteur de fin de course correspondant, ce qui provoque l'arrêt des moyens moteurs du moyen d'accès et provoque le déclenchement des moyens moteurs, dans le sens d'un déroulement de la couverture, du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement (jusqu'à ce que celle-ci agisse sur le capteur fin de course correspondant de façon à provoquer l'arrêt des moyens moteurs du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement) ;
  • pour l'enroulement de la couverture, le commutateur de commande générale est actionné en position « enroulement », ce qui déclenche le déclenchement des moyens moteurs, dans le sens d'un enroulement de la couverture du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement (jusqu'à ce que celle-ci agisse sur le capteur fin de course correspondant de façon à provoquer l'arrêt des moyens moteurs du dispositif d'enroulement/déroulement et provoque le déclenchement des moyens moteurs du moyen d'accès dans le sens de la fermeture, jusqu'à ce que celui-ci agisse sur le capteur de fin de course correspondant, ce qui provoque l'arrêt des moyens moteurs du moyen d'accès.
Thus, with a single command, the following operation is obtained:
  • for the unwinding of the cover, the general control switch is actuated in the "unwind" position, which triggers the opening of the access means until it acts on the corresponding limit switch; which causes the motor means of the access means to stop and triggers the motor means, in the direction of unwinding of the cover, of the winding / unwinding device (until the latter acts on the corresponding end-of-travel sensor so as to cause the motor means of the winding / unwinding device) to stop;
  • for the winding of the cover, the general control switch is actuated in the "winding" position, which triggers the triggering of the motor means, in the direction of a winding of the cover of the winding / unwinding device (until that it acts on the corresponding limit switch sensor so as to cause the shutdown of the motor means of the winding / unwinding device and causes the triggering of the motor means of the access means in the closing direction, until it acts on the corresponding limit switch, which causes the stopping of the motor means of the access means.

On note que, lors du déroulement de la couverture, celle-ci vient à la surface de l'eau par simple flottaison et s'étend, au fur et à mesure du déroulement, à la surface de l'eau de façon connue en soi : lorsque la couverture atteint l'extrémité de la piscine opposée à l'enrouleur, elle vient en butée contre celle-ci et le déroulement se poursuivant, continue de s'étendre au niveau de l'enrouleur de façon à combler la surface d'eau non couverte.It is noted that during the course of the cover, it comes to the surface of the water by simple flotation and extends, as it unfolds, to the surface of the water in a manner known per se when the cover reaches the end of the pool opposite the reel, it abuts against it and the unfolding continues, continues to extend at the reel so as to fill the surface of the reel uncovered water.
