Abstract

Cuve thermale portative de grande capacité (jusqu'à 10 personnes) qui se transporte facilement dans une petite voiture et qui s'installe en moins de 45 minutes). Installés à une bonne distance (3 à 4 mètres), le système de tuyauterie de la cuve permet la liaison entre le système de chauffage et de filtration et la soufflerie. La cuve peut être installée sur toute surface et même dans l'eau. La double toile de la cuve thermale comporte 120-130 jets d'air et un jet d'eau puissant. Un chauffe-eau au propane permet d'utiliser la cuve en moins de 3 heures. En ajoutant une bouteille de mousse dans la cuve, la soufflerie produit une très grande quantité de mousse chaude.Large capacity portable hot tub (up to 10 people) that is easily transported in a small car and sets up in less than 45 minutes). Installed at a good distance (3 to 4 meters), the tubing system of the tank allows the connection between the heating and filtration system and the blower. The tank can be installed on any surface and even in water. The double liner of the hot tub features 120-130 air jets and a powerful water jet. A propane water heater allows the tank to be used in less than 3 hours. By adding a bottle of foam to the tank, the blower produces a very large quantity of hot foam.

Description

Description Domaine technique Cette invention est du domaine de la fabrication de cuve thermale.
Renseignements généraux Les cuves thermales existent depuis plusieurs années et sont généralement fabriquées en une seule pièce et installées de façon permanente sur un sol de niveau. Les cuves portatives ont l'avantage de pouvoir s'installer sur des surfaces inégales et se transporter facilement.

Les cuves thermales portatives qui existent sont petites et fragiles ou difficiles à
transporter dans une petite voiture. Certaines cuves existantes peuvent être déplacées mais elles ne peuvent pas être transportées dans une petite voiture (brevets canadiens :2536029, 2594855 et 2569300). De plus, ces cuves utilisent des matériaux gonflables qui se brisent lors de l'installation et la dés installation.
(brevet canadien :
2357659). La cuve proposée est très grande, ne comporte aucun matériau gonflable, est très résistante et se transporte facilement dans une petite voiture.

Description détaillée Cette cuve est composée d'une structure octogonale en tubes (Fig 2-1) qui sert de soutient à la toile de la cuve (Fig 1-1). La toile, qui est double, comporte des jets d'air intégrés (Fig 1-1). Une section est remplie d'air et comporte entre 120-130 perforations qui laisse échapper de l'air sous pression pour créer un remous. En ajoutant de la mousse à bain conventionnelle dans la cuve, une mousse est produite jusqu'à une hauteur de 3,5 mètres. La soufflerie et le système de chauffage sont à une distance de 3,5 mètres de la cuve ce qui permet de protéger l'équipement et de procurer un environnement sécuritaire.
La structure octogonale est composée de tubes qui se démontent complètement.
Pour maintenir les tubes en place, des trous ont été percés pour recevoir une vis ou barrure (fig.
4) ce qui empêche le tube de sortir de son support.

La toile de la cuve est maintenue en place à l'aide d'attaches (fig 5-1) qui sont fixées sur la base de la structure octogonale à l'aide de courroies. (Fig 6-1 et Fig 7-1). Cette même courroie permet au contour décoratif (Fig 7-2 et Figl l-1) de la cuve de rester en place.
Un couvercle en tissu flexible permet de conserver la chaleur (Fig 8-1). Celui-ci est maintenu par une 2e attache située sur la même courroie qui maintient la toile de la cuve (Fig 8-2).

Un système de circulation de l'eau et de chauffage de la cuve (Fig 12-1) est situé à une distance de 3 à 4 mètres de la cuve à l'aide deux long tuyaux flexibles (Figl2-
Description Technical area This invention is in the field of hot tub manufacture.
General Information The hot tubs have existed for several years and are generally manufactured in one piece and permanently installed on a level floor. The tanks have the advantage of being able to install on uneven surfaces and to ship easily.

Portable hot tubs that exist are small and fragile or difficult to carry in a small car. Some existing tanks can be displaced but they can not be transported in a small car (patents Canadian: 2536029, 2594855 and 2569300). In addition, these tanks use materials inflatables that break during installation and installation dice.
(Canadian patent:
2357659). The proposed tank is very large, has no material inflatable, is very resistant and easily carried in a small car.

detailed description This tank consists of an octagonal tube structure (Fig 2-1) that serves of supports to the canvas of the tank (Fig 1-1). The canvas, which is double, features air jets integrated (Fig 1-1). One section is filled with air and has between 120-130 perforations that lets out air under pressure to create a swirl. By adding foam conventional bath in the tank, a foam is produced up to a height of 3.5 meters. The blower and the heating system are at a distance of 3,5 meters from the tank which protects the equipment and provides an environment safe.
The octagonal structure is composed of tubes that disassemble completely.
For keep the tubes in place, holes have been drilled to receive a screw or lock (fig.
4) which prevents the tube from coming out of its support.

The fabric of the tank is held in place with fasteners (fig 5-1) which are fixed on the base of the octagonal structure using belts. (Fig 6-1 and Fig 7-1). This same belt allows the decorative contour (Fig 7-2 and Figl l-1) of the stay in place.
A flexible fabric cover keeps the heat (Fig 8-1). The one-it is maintained by a second fastener located on the same belt that holds the canvas of the tank (Fig 8-2).

A system for circulating the water and heating the tank (Fig 12-1) is located at a distance of 3 to 4 meters from the tank using two long flexible hoses (Fig.

2) et ceux-ci sont déposés dans la cuve (Fig 9-2). La soufflerie est installée également à 3 à 4 mètres de la cuve et est connectée à la cuve par un connecteur sur la toile (Fig 9-1). Les jets d'air sont situés dans la toile de la cuve. Un morceaux de tissus collé sur la toile de la cuve avec 120 à 130 troues agit comme jets d'air (Fig 9-3). Un tissu noir permet de maintenir en place les tuyaux (Fig. 10-1).

La toile de la cuve est protégée et isolée du sol à l'aide de morceaux de styromousse sous la toile qui sont assemblés ensemble. (Fig 2-2) D'autres morceaux de styromousse sont déposés sur l'eau en dessous du couvercle pour éviter les pertes de chaleur.
(Fig 14-1)
2) and those they are deposited in the tank (Fig 9-2). The blower is also installed at 3 to 4 meters of the tank and is connected to the tank by a connector on the canvas (Fig 9-1). Air jets are located in the canvas of the tank. A piece of fabric stuck on the canvas of the tank with 120 to 130 holes acts as air jets (Fig 9-3). A black fabric helps maintain in place the pipes (Fig. 10-1).

The canvas of the tank is protected and isolated from the ground using pieces of styrofoam under the canvas that are assembled together. (Fig 2-2) Other pieces of Styrofoam are deposited on the water below the lid to prevent heat loss.
