  Perfectionnements aux réservoirs à liquides, spécialement -aux réservoirs pour chasses de W.C. 



   La présente invention se rapporte aux réservoirs à eau ou à autres liquides et a pour but principal de munir ces réservoirs d'un dispositif de vidange, de maintien à niveau constant, etc., qui puisse s'amorcer d'une manière ra- pide et automatique. 



   Un but est également de permettre la vidange de la chasse, etc., tout en supprimant les rondelles d'étanchéité. 



   Ce dispositif consiste principalement en un syphon à branches   téléseopiques   comprenant une branche fixe sur la- quelle ou dans laquelle peut coulisser une branche courbe dont l'abaissement en-dessous du.niveau du liquide et à l'aide de moyens de commande appropriés, provoque-l'amorçage du syphon. 



   L'invention englobe également certains moyens ayant pour but de maintenir d'une manière parfaite l'étanchéité du dispositif de remplissage en cas de dépôts calcaires. 



   Les dessins ci-joints montrent à titre d'exemple un   @   mode de réalisation de l'invention dans son application à une chasse de W.C.

   La figure 1 est une vue en coupe verticale du ré- servoir de chasse muni du dispositif.

La figure 2 est une coupe par la ligne II-II dans la figure 1. 



   La figure 3 est une vue en plan. 



   La figure 4 est une vue en coupe du dispositif de remplissage comportant des moyens d'obturation de l'arrivée de l'eau. 



   Sur les dessins ci-joints, 1 désigne le bac auquel l'eau est amenée par un tuyau extérieur (non représenté) raccordé à une arrivée   d'eau 2   (fig.l et 4) située à l'inté- rieur du bac et coopérant avec des éléments qui seront dé- crits ci-après. 



   Conformément à l'invention, on prévoit un syphon à amorçage rapide et   automatique   comprenant une branche fixe 3 auquel est raccordé le tuyau de descente (non représenté)ou d'évacuation et une branche mobile 4 de forme courbe qui prend autour de la branche fixe 3. Au lieu d'avoir une branche mo- bile enveloppante et une branche fixe "rentrante" , on pour- rait évidemment avoir une branche fixe enveloppante et une branche mobile rentrante. 



   L'abaissement de la partie mobile 4   s'effectue   sous la commande d'une tringle 5 se divisant en deux parties   6   pre- nant autour de la branche mobile 4 et oscillant autour d'axes 7 portés par le bac. Ce tringlage   5-6   est relié par un ou 'des tourillons 8 à la branche mobile 4. 



   On comprend aisément que l'on peut provoquer d'une manière rapide et automatique l'amorçage d'un tel syphon sim- plement par l'abaissement, sous le niveau du liquide, de la courbe supérieure 4 par la commande de la tringle 5. 



   La partie courbe 4 peut revenir en place sit8t l'a- morçage effectué, ou à la fin de l'écoulement pour une nou-

 velle opération. Ce mouvement peut s'opérer à la main ou par l'effet d'un ressort 9 ou d'un autre moyen tel que celui d'un flotteur qui remonte suivant l'arrivée du li- quide de remplissage, etc.. 



   Le syphon lui-même peut être fabriqué en métaux fer- reux ou non ferreux ou en matières moulées, la bakélite par exemple. les parties-en frottement doivent être sim- plement en contact suffisant pour empêcher toute rentrée d'air. 



   Indépendamment de la facilité et de   l'automatiaité   d'amorçage, ce dispositif présente encore l'avantage que le mouvement des branches du syphon l'une sur l'autre assu- re un rodage continu en cas dedépôt calcaire.

  Improvements to liquid tanks, especially tanks for toilet flushes.



   The present invention relates to reservoirs for water or other liquids and its main object is to provide these reservoirs with a device for emptying, maintaining a constant level, etc., which can be activated in a rapid manner. and automatic.



   It is also an object to allow the flushing of the flush, etc., while removing the sealing washers.



   This device consists mainly of a siphon with telesopic branches comprising a fixed branch on which or in which can slide a curved branch whose lowering below the level of the liquid and with the aid of appropriate control means, causes - priming of the siphon.



   The invention also encompasses certain means having the aim of perfectly maintaining the tightness of the filling device in the event of lime deposits.



   The accompanying drawings show by way of example one embodiment of the invention in its application to a toilet flush.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

 



   FIG. 1 is a view in vertical section of the flushing tank fitted with the device.



    @
Figure 2 is a section through the line II-II in Figure 1.



   Figure 3 is a plan view.



   FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the filling device comprising means for closing off the water inlet.



   In the accompanying drawings, 1 designates the tank to which the water is supplied by an external pipe (not shown) connected to a water inlet 2 (fig.l and 4) located inside the tank and cooperating with elements which will be described below.



   According to the invention, there is provided a rapid and automatic priming siphon comprising a fixed branch 3 to which is connected the downpipe (not shown) or discharge and a movable branch 4 of curved shape which takes around the fixed branch 3. Instead of having an enveloping mobile branch and a fixed "re-entrant" branch, one could obviously have a fixed enveloping branch and a re-entrant mobile branch.



   The moving part 4 is lowered under the control of a rod 5 dividing into two parts 6 gripping around the moving branch 4 and oscillating around axes 7 carried by the tank. This linkage 5-6 is connected by one or 'of the journals 8 to the movable branch 4.



   It is easily understood that one can cause in a rapid and automatic manner the priming of such a siphon simply by lowering, below the level of the liquid, the upper curve 4 by the control of the rod 5. .



   The curved part 4 can come back in place as soon as the priming has been carried out, or at the end of the flow for a new

 velle operation. This movement can take place by hand or by the effect of a spring 9 or of another means such as that of a float which rises according to the arrival of the filling liquid, etc.



   The siphon itself can be made from ferrous or non-ferrous metals or from molded materials, for example bakelite. the rubbing parts must simply be in sufficient contact to prevent any entry of air.



   Independently of the ease and automatia of priming, this device still has the advantage that the movement of the branches of the siphon one on the other ensures continuous lapping in the event of lime deposit.

Claims

The tank is filled with the aid of a needle stopper 10 which, at one end, cooperates with a seat 11 and which, at the other end, rests on a block 12 carried by an axis 13 on which is also fixed the rod 14 of the float 15. The stroke of the needle 10 is regulated by a rod 16 passing through a projection 17 of the block 12 and resting on the rod 14, An important characteristic of the invention is that, on the axis of the needle are provided fins 18 placed obliquely so that, during each filling, the needle receives a rotational movement and that it comes to rest on its seat each time in a different position, which ensures the perfect maintenance of the seal in the event of lime deposits', R e v e n d i c a t i o n s.
