Abstract

The recuperation system consists of a two- or three-way valve (1) in the outlet pipe (4) from a sanitary installation (5) such as a washbasin or sink. allowing the used water to be sent directly to the drain (8) or to a storage tank (3) for re-use. The valve can be operated manually by a handle on the valve itself or rods located on the sanitary installation, or mechanically by an electric motor or power cylinder.

Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de récupération d'eau usée.  The present invention relates to a device for recovering used water.

Il concerne le domaine industriel et commercial de la fabrication et de la diffusion d'articles de plomberie et d'équipements pour conduites d'eau.  It concerns the industrial and commercial field of the manufacture and distribution of plumbing articles and equipment for water pipes.

La gestion de l'eau impose des investissements lourds et la contribution des utilisateurs. Dans les pays développés (telle la France), les communes sont responsables de l'alimentation en eau et de l'assainissement des eaux usées. Gérer l'eau impose de prendre en compte le captage, le traitement et la distribution. L'assainissement et l'épuration des eaux usées constituent une autre étape.  Water management requires heavy investment and the contribution of users. In developed countries (such as France), municipalities are responsible for water supply and wastewater treatment. Managing water requires taking into account the collection, treatment and distribution. Sanitation and wastewater treatment is another step.

Chaque jour, il se perd dans le monde des quantités considérables d'eau qui pourrait être employée pour de nombreux usages.  Every day, there is lost in the world considerable quantities of water which could be used for many uses.

En effet, l'eau utilisée aussi bien par les particuliers que par les entreprises est généralement envoyée directement à l'égout après utilisation, quelle que soit la nature de cette utilisation. Dans de nombreux cas, une partie non négligeable de cette eau pourrait être réutilisée pour certaines applications, ce qui permettrait de supprimer un gaspillage regrettable lorsque l'eau est rare et de réaliser souvent des économies substantielles.  In fact, the water used by both individuals and businesses is generally sent directly to the sewer after use, regardless of the nature of this use. In many cases, a significant part of this water could be reused for certain applications, which would make it possible to eliminate regrettable waste when water is scarce and often to make substantial savings.

Par exemple, dans le cas d'une utilisation domestique, l'eau dont on s'est servi pour le lavage des légumes, souvent en quantité importante, pourrait très bien être employée pour le rinçage des WC, le lavage d'une voiture ou l'arrosage des jardins.  For example, in the case of domestic use, the water used for washing vegetables, often in large quantities, could very well be used for flushing toilets, washing a car or watering the gardens.

Le dispositif selon la présente invention a pour objectif de remédier à la situation actuelle en permettant de réutiliser de l'eau de façon contrôlée avant de l'envoyer vers le réseau d'assainissement.  The device according to the present invention aims to remedy the current situation by making it possible to reuse water in a controlled manner before sending it to the sanitation network.

<Desc/Clms Page number 2> <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

Il est constitué d'une vanne pouvant être actionnée à la demande, placée à la sortie des points d'utilisation tels que lavabos, éviers ou autres permettant de diriger l'eau employée soit directement vers le réseau d'évacuation, soit vers un moyen de stockage ou vers une autre utilisation.  It consists of a valve that can be actuated on demand, placed at the outlet of the points of use such as sinks, sinks or other allowing to direct the water used either directly to the drainage network, or to a means storage or other use.

Sur les dessins annexés, donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs de formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention : la figure 1 est un schéma de principe du système utilisant un réservoir de stockage, la figure 2 montre l'utilisation du dispositif avec une vanne deux voies et les figures 3 et 4 sont des coupes axiales d'une vanne trois voies destinée à l'application du dispositif, représentant respectivement cette vanne en position sortie vers le réseau d'évacuation et en position sortie vers le stockage ou autre utilisation de l'eau.  In the accompanying drawings, given by way of nonlimiting examples of embodiments of the subject of the invention: FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the system using a storage tank, FIG. 2 shows the use of the device with a two-way valve and FIGS. 3 and 4 are axial sections of a three-way valve intended for the application of the device, representing this valve respectively in the outlet position towards the drainage network and in the outlet position towards the storage or other use of water.

Le dispositif, figures 1 et 2, est constitué d'une vanne 1,2 deux ou trois voies associée éventuellement à un moyen de stockage tel que réservoir 3, citerne ou bassin.  The device, Figures 1 and 2, consists of a two or three-way valve 1,2 optionally associated with a storage means such as tank 3, tank or basin.

La vanne 1,2 est raccordée à la conduite d'évacuation 4 d'un point d'utilisation 5 pouvant consister par exemple en un lavabo 6 et comporte un conduit de sortie 7 relié au réseau d'évacuation 8 aboutissant au système d'égout.  The valve 1,2 is connected to the discharge pipe 4 of a point of use 5 which may consist, for example, of a sink 6 and comprises an outlet pipe 7 connected to the discharge network 8 leading to the sewer system .

Dans le cas d'une vanne trois voies 1, la troisième voie est reliée à une canalisation 9 aboutissant à un second point d'utilisation ou à un réservoir 3 de stockage.  In the case of a three-way valve 1, the third way is connected to a pipe 9 leading to a second point of use or to a storage tank 3.

Dans le cas d'une vanne deux voies 2, une dérivation 10, alimentant le second point d'utilisation ou le moyen de stockage, est disposée au-dessus de la vanne 2, de façon que lorsque celle-ci est ouverte, l'eau s'écoule vers le réseau d'évacuation 8.  In the case of a two-way valve 2, a bypass 10, supplying the second point of use or the storage means, is arranged above the valve 2, so that when the latter is open, the water flows to the drainage network 8.

La commande de la vanne 1,2 peut s'effectuer par tous moyens adéquats, aussi bien mécaniques, par exemple vérin ou moteur électriques, que manuels.  The valve 1,2 can be controlled by any suitable means, both mechanical, for example electric actuator or motor, and manual.

<Desc/Clms Page number 3> <Desc / Clms Page number 3>

Elle pourra être actionnée à l'aide d'une manette 11, ou d'une ou deux tirettes 12 installées à portée de main près du premier point d'utilisation et reliées à la vanne par câbles 13 ou par tringles.  It can be actuated using a handle 11, or one or two pulls 12 installed within easy reach near the first point of use and connected to the valve by cables 13 or by rods.

Grâce à sa simplicité, à sa facilité d'utilisation et à son coût de revient peu élevé, le dispositif qui vient d'être décrit se prête particulièrement bien à l'équipement des différents points d'utilisation de locaux domestiques.  Thanks to its simplicity, its ease of use and its low cost price, the device which has just been described lends itself particularly well to equipping the various points of use of domestic premises.

Toutefois, le système peut très facilement être adapté à des processus industriels, par exemple pour la réutilisation d'eau utilisée comme fluide de refroidissement.  However, the system can very easily be adapted to industrial processes, for example for the reuse of water used as cooling fluid.

Le positionnement des divers éléments constitutifs donne à l'objet de l'invention un maximum d'effets utiles qui n'avaient pas été, à ce jour, obtenus par des systèmes similaires. The positioning of the various constituent elements gives the object of the invention a maximum of useful effects which had not, to date, been obtained by similar systems.
