Description
Perfectionnements aux pompes à inertie.Improvements to inertia pumps.
La présente invention concerne les pompes à inertie et à énergie cynétique destinées à être utilises notamment sur les petits bateaux, en particulier les bateaux de plaisance, pour vider en permanence l'eau qui s'introduit dans la cale et s'y accumule, soit par des fuites de la coque, des joints ou du calfatage, soit par la pluie. The present invention relates to inertia and cynetic energy pumps intended to be used in particular on small boats, in particular pleasure boats, for permanently emptying the water which is introduced into the hold and accumulates therein, namely leaks from the hull, gaskets or caulking, or rain.
Elle concerne en particulier les pompes du genre comprenant d'une part un boîtier destiné à être fixe sur un support susceptible d'osciller et présentant une enceinte contenant un fluide à evacuer et, d'autre part, une masse lourde inerte ou mobile qui est disposée de façon à se mouvoir librement par rapport au boîtier et qui peut impartir un mouvement alternatif à une paroi élastique d'au moins une chambre d'accumulation qui est menagée dans le boitier et est reliée par des orifices d'aspiration et de refoulement munis de clapets anti-retour d'une part vers l'enceinte à évacuer et, d'autre part, à l'extérieur. It relates in particular to pumps of the kind comprising on the one hand a housing intended to be fixed on a support liable to oscillate and having an enclosure containing a fluid to be evacuated and, on the other hand, an inert or mobile heavy mass which is arranged to move freely relative to the housing and which can impart reciprocating motion to an elastic wall of at least one accumulation chamber which is provided in the housing and is connected by suction and discharge ports provided non-return valves on the one hand towards the enclosure to be evacuated and, on the other hand, outside.
Ce type de pompe fonctionne sans aucun apport d'énergie extérieure quelle qu'elle soit, du fait de l'inertie de la masse et de son mouvement relatif par rapport à son boîtier par suite de la modification de l'assiette de son support, par exemple un bateau à l'ancre ou en croisière, ce qui crée une aspiration et un refoulement alternés du fluide à evacuer. This type of pump operates without any external energy input whatsoever, due to the inertia of the mass and its relative movement relative to its housing following the modification of the attitude of its support, for example a boat at anchor or on a cruise, which creates an alternating suction and discharge of the fluid to be evacuated.
Dans les pompes connues de ce genre, en particulier celles décrites dans le brevet FR-A-2.178.391 et son certificat d'addition N" 2.215.101, la masse à inertie est homogène ce qui présente des inconvenients et une réalisation difficile. In known pumps of this kind, in particular those described in patent FR-A-2,178,391 and its certificate of addition N "2,215,101, the inertial mass is homogeneous, which has drawbacks and is difficult to produce.
La présente invention se propose de pallier ces inconvénients. The present invention proposes to overcome these drawbacks.
Elle vise dans ce but un perfectionnement selon lequel la masse à inertie est constituée par une cuve cylindrique dans laquelle se mobilisent plusieurs boules en matériau dense tel que plomb ou acier recouvertes d'un liquide atteignant une certaine hauteur dans la cuve de manière qu'à l'effet d'inertie s'ajoute une énergie cynetique de la masse en mouvement dans la cuve.It aims for this purpose an improvement according to which the inertial mass is constituted by a cylindrical tank in which several balls of dense material such as lead or steel are mobilized covered with a liquid reaching a certain height in the tank so that the inertia effect is added to the kinetic energy of the moving mass in the tank.
Cette pompe est d'un principe très simple et est constituee d'eléments peu complexes, robustes et économiques et d'une beaucoup plus grande efficacite que dans les réalisations decrites antérieurement. This pump is of a very simple principle and is made up of elements that are not very complex, robust and economical and of much greater efficiency than in the embodiments described previously.
La description qui va suivre se référant aux dessins an nexés, permet de bien comprendre l'invention. Elle ne donne qu'un exemple de réalisation non restrictif. The description which follows, referring to the appended drawings, allows a good understanding of the invention. It gives only one non-restrictive example of embodiment.
La figure 1 est une vue en élévation d'une pompe selon 1 'in- vention représentée en coupe suivant l'axe I-I de la figure 2. FIG. 1 is an elevation view of a pump according to the invention shown in section along the axis I-I of FIG. 2.
La figure 2 est une vue en plan par-dessus de la pompe prise en coupe suivant l'axe II-II de la figure 1. FIG. 2 is a plan view over the pump taken in section along the axis II-II of FIG. 1.
La pompe représentée comprend un boîtier 1 en forme de réservoir cylindrique profond fermé par un couvercle 2 et dans le fond duquel est fixé un socle 3 constitué par deux plaques carrées épaisses, superposees et rendues solidaires par tout moyen approprié, notamment par collage. Le couvercle plat 2 peut être fixé au boîtier 1 par des attaches latérales qui coopèrent avec des crochets, par exemple mais non exclusivement. The pump shown comprises a housing 1 in the form of a deep cylindrical reservoir closed by a cover 2 and in the bottom of which is fixed a base 3 constituted by two thick square plates, superimposed and made integral by any appropriate means, in particular by gluing. The flat cover 2 can be fixed to the housing 1 by lateral fasteners which cooperate with hooks, for example but not exclusively.
Le socle 3 supporte en son centre crapaudine 4 creusée d'un logement hémisphérique 5 pour l'extrémité de forme correspondante d'un pivot 6 rendu solidaire de la paroi extérieure du fond 7 d'une cuve mobile cylindrique 8 dont les bords 8' sont dirigés vers l'intérieur. The base 3 supports in its center plate 4 hollowed out of a hemispherical housing 5 for the correspondingly shaped end of a pivot 6 made integral with the outer wall of the bottom 7 of a cylindrical mobile tank 8 whose edges 8 'are directed inward.
Dans le fond 7 de cette cuve 8 sont disposees des boules 9 au moule de trois par exemple, en métal dense. Le nombre de boules n'est pas limitatif, mais doit permettre leur libre circulation dans le fond de la cuve. In the bottom 7 of this tank 8 are arranged balls 9 in the mold of three for example, of dense metal. The number of balls is not limiting, but must allow their free circulation in the bottom of the tank.
La cuve 8 contient de l'eau ou tout autre liquide, par exemple de l'huile, en quantité suffisante pour que son niveau atteigne les trois quarts de la hauteur de ladite cuve sans que pour autant le liquide ne déborde lorsqu'elle bascule d'une dizaine de degres autour du pivot 6. The tank 8 contains water or any other liquid, for example oil, in sufficient quantity so that its level reaches three-quarters of the height of said tank without the liquid overflowing when it tips over. '' ten degrees around pivot 6.
Pour lubrifier l'articulation formée par la crapaudine 4 et le pivot 5, celui-ci est équipe d'un graisseur 10 muni d'un bouchon 11. To lubricate the articulation formed by the basket 4 and the pivot 5, the latter is fitted with a lubricator 10 provided with a plug 11.
Autour du socle 3 est fixée une couronne 12 circulaire dont le bord supérieur est muni d'une garniture d'appui 13 sur laquelle peut buter et rouler la cuve 8 par son fond 7 lorsqu'elle est en bascule. Une couronne de sécurité en matériau élastique 14 équipe la paroi interne latérale du boîtier 1 pour amortir encore les chocs de la cuve 8 qui peut y prendre appui par sa paroi latérale. Around the base 3 is fixed a circular crown 12, the upper edge of which is provided with a support lining 13 on which the tank 8 can abut and roll by its bottom 7 when it is rocking. A safety ring made of elastic material 14 equips the lateral internal wall of the housing 1 to further absorb the shocks of the tank 8 which can bear against it by its lateral wall.
Comme l'illustre les figures, le socle 3 comporte quatre soufflets 15, lesquels réalises en caoutchouc synthétique élastique, par exemple en neoprène, presentent chacun un fond légèrement galbé, une paroi cylindrique en forme de soufflet accordeon se pliant selon son axe vertical et une partie lisse inférieure avec une collerette à ouverture circulaire pour bridage par anneau 26 de serrage sur la base de la pompe. As illustrated in the figures, the base 3 comprises four bellows 15, which made of elastic synthetic rubber, for example made of neoprene, each have a slightly curved bottom, a cylindrical wall in the form of an accordion bellows folding along its vertical axis and a lower smooth part with a circular opening flange for clamping by ring 26 of clamping on the base of the pump.
Les quatre soufflets de pompe 15 sont disposés sur les diagonales du. socle 3 qui est creusé au droit de chacun d'eux de deux logements 16 et 17 pour des clapets d'aspiration 18 et de refoulement 19. Au niveau des faces jointives 20 des deux parties du socle 3 sont creuses des canaux circulaires 21 et 22, dont celui 21 communique avec les logements 16 des clapets 18 d'aspiration, tandis que le canal 22 commnique avec les logements 17 des clapets de refoulement 19, comme le montre la figure 2. Ces canaux 21 et 22 sont raccordés avec les tuyaux d'aspiration 23, respectivement 24 de refoulement et d'évacuation. The four pump bellows 15 are arranged on the diagonals of the. base 3 which is hollowed out in line with each of them of two housings 16 and 17 for suction and discharge valves 18 and discharge 19. At the level of the contiguous faces 20 of the two parts of the base 3 are hollow circular channels 21 and 22 , of which that 21 communicates with the housings 16 of the suction valves 18, while the channel 22 commnics with the housings 17 of the discharge valves 19, as shown in FIG. 2. These channels 21 and 22 are connected with the pipes d suction 23, respectively 24 for discharge and evacuation.
Sous l'action des changements d'assiette du support de la pompe, par exemple un bateau soumis aux mouvements un tant soit peu sensibles de la surface de la mer, en croisière ou à l'amarre, la masse mobile constituee de la cuve 8, de son contenu liquide et des boules 9, oscille, se balance ou roule autour du pivot 6. Le mouvement pendulaire qui en résulte, d'amplitude variable selon l'importance du changement d'assiette, entrain, par variation du volume des soufflets 15, l'asspiration et le refoulement du fluide à évacuer à travers les perçages et les canaux appropries. Under the action of the changes in attitude of the pump support, for example a boat subjected to slightly sensitive movements of the sea surface, when cruising or mooring, the mobile mass made up of the tank 8 , of its liquid content and of the balls 9, oscillates, swings or rolls around the pivot 6. The pendulum movement which results therefrom, of variable amplitude according to the importance of the change of attitude, movement, by variation of the volume of the bellows 15, the suction and discharge of the fluid to be evacuated through the appropriate holes and channels.
En cas de changements d'assiette importants, la cuve 8 prend appui sur la garniture 13 de la couronne 12 qui entoure le socle 3 et qui lui sert aussi de chemin de roulement. Ainsi, suivant les sollicitations auxquelles elle peut être soumise, la masse mobile peut passer d'un soufflet 15 à l'autre sans basculement, seulement en roulant sur la couronne 12. In the event of significant changes in attitude, the tank 8 bears on the lining 13 of the crown 12 which surrounds the base 3 and which also serves as a raceway for it. Thus, according to the stresses to which it may be subjected, the mobile mass can pass from one bellows 15 to the other without tilting, only by rolling on the crown 12.
Le cas échéant un levier 25 peut servir à commander un fonctionnement manuel force et intensif de la pompe. If necessary, a lever 25 can be used to control manual force and intensive operation of the pump.
D'autres applications intéressantes peuvent être envisagees et développées, en particulier pour l'utilisation de la houle pour faire fonctionner de petites centrales de production d'électricité en courant continu, convertible ensuite en courant alternatif par onduleur. Other interesting applications can be envisaged and developed, in particular for the use of swell to operate small power stations of electricity production in direct current, then convertible into alternating current by inverter.
Il va sans dire que des modifications de détails peuvent être apportées à l'invention. C'est ainsi que le nombre des chambres d'accumulation 15 peut être variable. Une pompe doit en comporter au moins deux pour fonctionner, mais si 'son volume le permet elle pourrait en comporter six et plus. It goes without saying that modifications of details can be made to the invention. Thus, the number of accumulation chambers 15 can be variable. A pump must have at least two to work, but if its volume allows it could have six or more.
