Abstract

The particular advantageous arrangement of the bowl (1) is that the supply of rinsing liquid (2a) is located substantially above the overflow level formed by the rim (3) of the bowl (1). This supply and distribution of liquid are effected by means of the perforated boom (5) for this purpose. Another special feature of the invention is that a spray device (8), controlled by a lever (9), is connected to the rinsing-liquid supply conduit by means of a hose (10) connected at (11). Aeration holes are provided to ensure that the pipe (2) and the spray device (8) are permanently in contact with the outside air. The evacuation means may comprise a motor-pump unit, optionally hand-actuated with the aid of a pull mechanism (13) in the event of the electric current to the motor being cut off. <IMAGE>

Description

La présente invention concerne des perfectionnements apportés aux cuvettes de cabinets d'aisances comprenant un dispositif de rinçage et des moyens aspiro-propulseurs tels qu'une pompe actionnée par exemple par un moteur électrique et prévue pour assurer le broyage et l'évacuation du contenu de la cuvette.The present invention relates to improvements made to the basins of toilets comprising a rinsing device and vacuum-propellant means such as a pump actuated for example by an electric motor and intended to ensure the grinding and evacuation of the contents of the bowl.

Ces perfectionnements ont pour effet principalement d'interdire toute pollution du conduit d'arrivée du liquide de rinçage,avec en outre la possibilité de prévoir un élément à conduit flexible relié au dit conduit pour permettre d'utiliser l'appareil en bidet.These improvements have the main effect of prohibiting any pollution of the inlet pipe of the rinsing liquid, with in addition the possibility of providing a flexible pipe element connected to said pipe to allow the use of the appliance in a bidet.

Elle concerne également des perfectionnements relatifs à la commande du moteur en cas de panne de courant ou en cas de blocage des organes d'évacuation.It also relates to improvements relating to the control of the motor in the event of a power failure or in the event of blockage of the discharge members.

Les dispositions avantageuses de l'invention qui seront mises en évidence ci-après sont favorablement appliea- bles aux cuvettes du genre décrit dans le Brevet Français No 74 06063 du 22 Février 1974 au nom du demandeur.The advantageous provisions of the invention which will be highlighted below are favorably applicable to cuvettes of the kind described in French Patent No 74,06063 of February 22, 1974 in the name of the applicant.

On comprendra mieux les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention en se référant à la description suivante et au dessin annexé qui donne à titre d'exemple non limitatif un mode de réalisation possible de l'invention et dans lequel :

  • la figure 1 représente en coupe schématique une cuvette selon l'invention ,
  • et la figure 2 une vue d'ensemble de la cuvette représentée figure 1.
The characteristics and advantages of the invention will be better understood by referring to the following description and to the accompanying drawing which gives by way of nonlimiting example a possible embodiment of the invention and in which:
  • FIG. 1 represents in schematic section a bowl according to the invention,
  • and Figure 2 an overview of the bowl shown in Figure 1.

Sur la figure 1 où la cuvette 1 est représentée en coupe, le conduit d'arrivée du liquide de rinçage porte la référence 2. On en remarque la disposition particulière au-dessus du niveau 3 que constitue le bord supérieur de la cuvette 1, ce qui a pour effet d'interdire toute pollution de l'arrivée du liquide de rinçage lorsque l'appareil ,se trouvant bouché pour une raison quelconque, déborde.In Figure 1 where the bowl 1 is shown in section, the inlet pipe of the rinsing liquid bears the reference 2. We note the particular arrangement above level 3 that constitutes the upper edge of the bowl 1, this which has the effect of preventing any pollution of the arrival of the flushing liquid when the device, being blocked for any reason, overflows.

L'arrivée du liquide de rinçage dans la cuvette est commandée par l'électro-vanne 4 de la manière connue et l'écoulement du liquide s'effectue par la rampe perforée 5. De plus, le conduit 2 alimentant cette dernière est en liaison avec l'air libre par au moins un orifice qui y est pratiqué, interdisant ainsi tout effet d'aspiration dans la partie comprise entre l'arrivée du liquide et l'électro-vanne 4 en cas de dépression dans le conduit d'alimentation générale par suite d'une coupure d'eau inopinée.
Dans cet exemple,deux ouvertures 6 et 7 (seulement visibles sur la figure 2) sont pratiquées de part et d'autre du conduit d'arrivée du liquide de rinçage 2.The arrival of the rinsing liquid in the bowl is controlled by the solenoid valve 4 in the known manner and the flow of the liquid is effected by the perforated ramp 5. In addition, the conduit 2 supplying the latter is connected with the open air through at least one orifice which is formed therein, thus preventing any suction effect in the part between the arrival of the liquid and the solenoid valve 4 in the event of depression in the general supply duct as a result of an unexpected water cut.
In this example, two openings 6 and 7 (only visible in FIG. 2) are made on either side of the inlet pipe for the rinsing liquid 2.

L'ensemble moteur-pompe-conduit assurant l'évacuation du contenu de la cuvette est représenté schématique- lent en pointillé sur la figure 1. Il en est de même du conduit 18 reliant la sortie de la pompe à la canalisation d'eaux usées. Eléments connus en soi.The motor-pump-conduit assembly ensuring the evacuation of the contents of the bowl is shown diagrammatically in dotted lines in FIG. 1. The same is true of the conduit 18 connecting the outlet of the pump to the wastewater pipe. . Elements known per se.

L'exemple illustré annexé représente deux autres particularités avantageuses de l'invention.The attached illustrated example represents two other advantageous features of the invention.

Tout d'abord,une douchette 8 pourvue d'un levier de commande 9 prévue pour permettre l'utilisation de l'appareil en bidet est raccordée en 11 par un élément en T au conduit d'amenée du liquide de rinçage 2 et reliée en permanence à ce dernier par un tuyau flexible 10 disposé en aval de l'électro-vanne 4. Dans ces conditions, le tuyau 10 d'alimentation de la douchette se trouve également mis en permanence à l'air libre en raison de la présence des orifices 2a, 6 et 7 ouverts en permanence.
Cette disposition permet de soustraire à la pollution le conduit d'alimentation 10 jusqu'à la douchette 8 en interdisant tout effet d'aspiration d'eau polluée dans le cas où la douchette tomberait malencontreusement dans la cuvette ou serait oubliée par distraction dans l'eau stagnante de la dite cuvette.First of all, a hand shower 8 provided with a control lever 9 provided to allow the use of the appliance in a bidet is connected at 11 by a T-element to the pipe for supplying the rinsing liquid 2 and permanently connected to the latter by a flexible hose 10 disposed downstream of the solenoid valve 4. Under these conditions, the hose 10 for supplying the spray head is also permanently brought to the open air due to the presence of openings 2a, 6 and 7 permanently open.
This arrangement makes it possible to remove pollution from the supply duct 10 up to the shower head 8 by prohibiting any suction effect of polluted water in the event that the shower head accidentally falls into the bowl or is inadvertently forgotten in the stagnant water from said bowl.

Il résulte de cette disposition un écoulement d'eau simultané en 2a et en 8 lorsque l'usager manoeuvre le levier de commande 9 de la douchette 8 après avoir actionné l'électro-vanne 4 déterminant l'arrivée du liquide. Cet écoulement n'est pas néfaste car il agit au contraire en réducteur de pression,diminuant le jet de rinçage qui est trop puissant lorsqu'il est utilisé directement sans réglage de débit. Lorsqu'elle n'est pas utilisée, la douchette 8 repose sur un support 17 prévu sur la cuvette 1.The result of this arrangement is a simultaneous flow of water at 2a and 8 when the user operates the control lever 9 of the shower head 8 after actuating the solenoid valve 4 determining the arrival of the liquid. This flow is not harmful because it acts on the contrary as a pressure reducer, reducing the rinse jet which is too powerful when it is used directly without adjusting the flow rate. When not in use, the hand shower 8 rests on a support 17 provided on the bowl 1.

D'autre part, un moyen est prévu pour parer à une éventuelle interruption de courant assurant le fonctionnement du moteur qui commande les moyens aspiro-propulseurs assurant l'évacuation du contenu de la cuvette (représentés en pointillé sur la figure 1 ). A cet effet,un dispositif à rouelibre 12 rendu solidaire de l'arbre moteur est relié à une tirette 13 par l'intermédiaire d'un câble 14 passant sur des poulies de renvoi 15 et 16. En cas d'interruption de courant, il suffit de déterminer la rotation du moteur en agissant à plusieurs reprises sur la tirette 13 pour obtenir l'évacuation requise.On the other hand, a means is provided to counter a possible interruption of current ensuring the operation of the motor which controls the vacuum-propellant means ensuring the evacuation of the contents of the bowl (shown in dotted lines in FIG. 1). To this end, a freewheel device 12 made integral with the drive shaft is connected to a pull tab 13 by means of a cable 14 passing over idler pulleys 15 and 16. In the event of a power interruption, it it suffices to determine the rotation of the motor by acting repeatedly on the pull tab 13 to obtain the required evacuation.

Dans cet ordre d'idée, sur l'axe de rotation de l'ensemble pompe moteur ou de la pompe seule, pourrait avantageusement être monté un volant d'inertie (non représenté car connu en soi) permettant,lors de tractions sur la tirette 13, une rotation prolongée et régulière de la pompe grâce à l'inertie de rotation créée par le dit volant.In this order of idea, on the axis of rotation of the motor pump assembly or of the pump alone, could advantageously be mounted a flywheel (not shown as known per se) allowing, during pulling on the pull tab 13, a prolonged and regular rotation of the pump thanks to the inertia of rotation created by said flywheel.

Enfin, un quatrième perfectionnement consiste dans le fait que dans le circuit de mise en action du moteur commandant les moyens aspiro-propulseurs d'évacuation de la cuvette est disposé un inverseur permettant d'obtenir la rotation du dit moteur en sens inverse du sens normal afin de pouvoir procéder au déblocage des organes d'évacuation lorsque cela est nécessaire.Finally, a fourth improvement consists in the fact that in the actuation circuit of the motor controlling the suction-propellant means for evacuating the bowl, there is an inverter allowing the rotation of said motor in the opposite direction to the normal direction in order to be able to unlock the evacuation devices when necessary.

Un tel inverseur connu en soi sous une forme générale n'a pas été représenté au dessin.Such an inverter known per se in general form has not been shown in the drawing.

Il peut être automatique ou commandé manuellement.It can be automatic or manually controlled.

Il est entendu que l'exemple représenté au dessin et décrit ci-dessus n'est aucunement limitatif et que toutes modifications dans le nombre et la forme des éléments constitutifs pourront être apportés sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.It is understood that the example shown in the drawing and described above is in no way limiting and that any modifications in the number and the shape of the constituent elements may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
