Definitions
- the present invention is in the field of home conveniences and it more specifically relates to a screen or screen intended to cooperate with a bathtub to constitute a shower cubicle.
- the object of the present invention is to propose a simple device not implementing any articulation mechanism of the panels against the wall, allowing the latter to rest in the position of use on the edge of the bathtub, and in the non-position use of being applied against the wall above the fitting even when it is at a certain height above the bathtub.
- a screen adaptable to the outer edge of a bathtub comprising a tap, said screen being intended to prevent splashing of water when the bathtub is used as a "shower tray"; is generally characterized in that it consists of at least one panel, called the first, and an amount intended to be fixed to the wall directly above the outside corner of the bath next to the fittings, the panel and the upright being connected by articulation means such that in the position of use, or deployed, said panel at least can rest on the outer edge of the bathtub and such that to cause the panel to assume a position of non-use in application against the wall adjacent to the valve, it is necessary that the lower edge of said panel is higher than the top of the valve.
- the bathtub can be used as such after retracting the panel against the wall above the fitting, or be used as a shower tray merchant after placing the panel in position above the outer edge of the bathtub; this position is a stable position since to move to another position, it is necessary to raise the panel.
- a second panel is associated with the first by means allowing it to be either in extension of the first or superimposed on the latter. It is actually a question of increasing the surface of the panel without imposing on it an additional bulk when not in use.
- a first solution consists in hinging the second panel by means of a hinge on the first, the hinge being arranged along the side opposite the opposite of the side adjacent to the articulation amount fixed to the wall.
- the means for associating the panels are means for sliding the second panel against the first. This second solution has the merit of enabling the panels to be produced by means of panes framed with anodized aluminum profiles for example. An advantageous embodiment of such panels will be described later.
- a profile comprising a hollow core and a groove opening into said core, said profile also having a framing structure of a window pane, a cylindrical tube supported at its ends by parts for fixing to the wall, said tube having a section which just fits into that of the core of the first profile, and comprising at a certain height greater than the top of the valves a lug which can circulate in said groove.
- Such articulation means are further characterized in that the angular positions of the groove relative to the plane of the panel in the first profile and of the lug relative to said outer end of the bath, are such that their coincidence n takes place only when the panel is parallel to the edge of the tub.
- each of these consists of a window framed by profiles which may be of three different profiles called first, second and third.
- a first profile is a flattened U-shaped profile, the wings of which are folded inward, one of the wings extending by an angle, the space between the wings being intended to accommodate a corner bracket while the he space between the angle iron and the flap of the adjacent wing is intended to accommodate the edge of the glass.
- the second profile is a W-shaped profile formed by a profile of the first type, one of the sides of which is extended by an angle large enough to accommodate a profile of the first type, the edge of the angle of the first profile having a small flap facing the inside of the large angle iron and intended to serve as a slide at the outside edge of the angle iron of the profile of the first type housed in the large angle iron.
- the third profile is formed of a profile of the second type attached to a profile comprising a hollow core and at least one notch opening into said core.
- the window of the first panel is framed by a profile of the third type along one of its vertical sides, by profiles of the second type along its upper and lower sides, and by a profile of the first type along its other vertical side, while the glass of the second panel is framed by profiles of the first type along its four sides.
- these consist of four sections of a hollow-core section having a planar external fixing face: two sections are fixed on a second type section. forming a vertical edge of the first panel, the other two sections being fixed, with an intermediate joint, on the wall; a cylindrical tube passes through the cores of the four sections and is secured, for example, sections fixed to the wall. Preferably one of the ends of the sections is cut at an angle so as to create a stable position of the panels vertically above the edge of the bathtub.
- a bathtub 1 is arranged in a bathroom corner, its outer edge 2 is surmounted by a device of the invention essentially constituted by a first panel 3 and by a second panel 4 which can slide against the first ; in fig.l the panels are shown in the deployed position or in use.
- Such articulation means are illustrated, according to a first embodiment in FIG. 3.
- These articulation means comprise a hollow-core profile 7 which also participates in the framing of a glass 8, either in glass or preferably in translucent plastic, an upright 9 comprising at its ends fixing parts 10 and 11 respectively upper and lower, and a cylindrical tube 12 supported at its ends by the articulation parts, the tube 12 passing through the hollow core of the profile 7 of which it constitutes the hinge axis: the structure of the profile 7 will described later in detail; we note however in the figure that the profile has been deployed from its hollow core structure, at its ends, the lower draft forming a small recess for the housing of the fixing piece 11 while the upper draft is of such a height that it allows the elevation of the panel along a tube 10 over a distance h greater than the height of the fitting above the edge of the bathtub.
- the two panels are preferably completely framed by profiles whose profile falls under the invention, profiles which will be described in more detail in relation to the following figures with reference to the section lines A, B, C of the fig.l.
- a first profile has a profile, or cross section, in a flattened U whose wings 14 and 15 are folded in 16 and 17 inwardly, the wing 14 being extended by an angle 18; the rectangular space between the wings and the back 19 of the profile is intended to accommodate a corner bracket 21; the space between the angle 18 and the flap 16 is intended to accommodate the edge of a window 22.
- Profiles comprising the above-described profile called first type completely surround the second panel 4. According to the known method, the ends of these profiles are cut in a miter and are kept assembled, either by gluing or by screwing by means of a one-piece angle angle housed as said above inside of them (fig. 7).
- the following section A of fig.1 shows the profile of the first profile.
- a second profile with a W-shaped profile, consists of two parts, namely a part 24 located on the right in the figure and a part 25 located on the left; part 24 is a profile similar to that of FIG. 6 except that the angle iron 18 ′ is extended by a small flap 26 facing the left part; part 24 is used to accommodate a window 27 and a square such as 28.
- Part 25 is used to house and slide a profile 29 of the first type identical to that of the previous figure; we note that the edge 30 of the angle of the profile 29 takes a sliding support on the flap 26;
- Fig.5 is a section along B of Fig.l corresponding to the upper edge of the panel 3; a similar arrangement is found in the opposite lower edge.
- a section 7 is formed of a part 32 similar to that of fig.5 and of the same width L and of a part 33 comprising a hollow core in which is housed a cylindrical tube 12 and two notches 34 and 35.
- the conformation of the part 32 of the profile 7 in profile of the second type allows on the one hand the connection to the profile of fig.5 and on the other hand allows to accommodate as shown in dotted lines, by sliding a profile 36 of the frame second panel.
- Notches 34 and 35 are intended on the one hand to save material, on the other hand.
- the function of the lug 38 and of its angular position on the tube 12 relative to the wall 39 with which the tube is integral is well understood on the simultaneous examination of FIG. 3: when the panel 3, after having been lifted at above the lug 38 is folded down (arrow 41) against the wall 9 ,. the notch 35 has taken the place occupied by the groove 34 (FIG. 4) and the lug 35 is located below a solid part of the part 32 of the profile 7; the latter is thus wedged at a height h above the valve.
- the profile 42 is pressed against the wall 39 in a leaktight manner using a double-sided adhesive seal 47, by means of fixing pieces 50 supporting the tube 12 at its ends.
- a fixing piece 50 is made integral with the tube 12 by a screw 51 which passes through (fig.4) the profile 42 to be screwed; thus the profile 42 and the tube 12 constitute a fixed amount relative to the wall, amount on which articulate and slide the panels.
- a panel 53 similar to panel 3 in fig.l is articulated on a wall 54, above the outer edge 55 of the bathtub by means of two sections 56 and 57 of a hollow core profile screwed on the vertical side 58 for framing the panel 3; the hollow core of the sections 56 and 57 allows the passage of a cylindrical tube 59 made integral with the wall, at its ends by fastening pieces 60 and 61 themselves made up of sections of the same profile as sections 56 and 57.
- a section of hollow-core profile is remarkable by one of its ends 62 cut at an angle and by a flat outer face 63 comprising a pair of median bores such as 64 and a pair of bores lateral such as 65; the central bores located opposite openings 66 intended for the passage of a tool, are used for fixing to the wall by means of a screw, (case of the fastening parts 60 and 61) while the lateral bores 65 are used for the fixing by screwing on a profile called.
- second type as shown in fig.5 (sections 56 and 57).
- an L-shaped section 28 of an elastic material comprises a lip 69 and a double-sided adhesive seal 70; such a profile is intended to be interposed between the wall 54 and the fixing parts 60 and 61, its lip 69 rising along the framing edge 58 of the panel 53 and bearing on it when it is in position d 'use.
Abstract
Description
La présente invention est du domaine des commodités des habitations et elle a plus spécialement pour objet un paravent ou écran destiné à coopérer avec une baignoire pour constituer une cabine de douche.The present invention is in the field of home conveniences and it more specifically relates to a screen or screen intended to cooperate with a bathtub to constitute a shower cubicle.
On connait parmi les écrans, ou panneaux rigides, des panneaux qui coulissent les uns le long des autres (US 2 766 587 MILLER), des panneaux qui sont articulés les uns sur les autres (FR 1 563 193 HAAS) , ainsi que des panneaux combinant ces deux types de mouvement (FR 2 229 372 BAUS); ce dernier brevet décrit en outre un mécanisme permettant de relever très légèrement les panneaux lorsqu'on les met en mouvement. Un inconvénient.des panneaux repliables précités résidé dans le fait qu'ils ne peuvent pas être rabattus contre le mur supportant la robinetterie lorsque celle-ci est disposée à une certaine distance au-dessus de la baignoire.We know among the screens, or rigid panels, panels which slide along one another (US 2 766 587 MILLER), panels which are articulated on each other (FR 1 563 193 HAAS), as well as panels combining these two types of movement (FR 2 229 372 BAUS); this latter patent further describes a mechanism allowing the panels to be raised very slightly when they are moved. A disadvantage of the aforementioned folding panels lies in the fact that they cannot be folded back against the wall supporting the fitting when the latter is placed at a certain distance above the bathtub.
Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif simple ne mettant en oeuvre aucun mécanisme d'articulation dés panneaux contre le mur, permettant à ces derniers de reposer en position d'utilisation sur le rebord de la baignoire, et en position de non utilisation d'.être appliqués contre le mur au-dessus de la robinetterie même lorsque celle-ci est à une certaine hauteur au-dessus de la baignoire.The object of the present invention is to propose a simple device not implementing any articulation mechanism of the panels against the wall, allowing the latter to rest in the position of use on the edge of the bathtub, and in the non-position use of being applied against the wall above the fitting even when it is at a certain height above the bathtub.
Selon la présente invention, un écran adaptable au bord extérieur d'une baignoire comportant une robinetterie, ledit écran étant destiné à éviter les projections d'eau lorsque la baignoire est utilisée comme "receveur" de douche; est caractérisé d'une manière générale en ce qu'il est constitué d'au moins un panneau, dit premier , et d'un montant destiné à être fixé au mur à l'aplomb de l'angle extérieur de là baignoire voisin de la robinetterie, le panneau et le montant étant reliés par des moyens d'articulation tels qu'en position d'utilisation, ou déployée, ledit panneau au moins peut reposer sur le bord extérieur de la baignoire et tels que pour faire prendre au panneau une position de non utilisation en application contre le mur adjacent à la robinetterie, il est nécessaire que le bord inférieur dudit panneau soit plus élevé que le sommet de la robinetterie.According to the present invention, a screen adaptable to the outer edge of a bathtub comprising a tap, said screen being intended to prevent splashing of water when the bathtub is used as a "shower tray"; is generally characterized in that it consists of at least one panel, called the first, and an amount intended to be fixed to the wall directly above the outside corner of the bath next to the fittings, the panel and the upright being connected by articulation means such that in the position of use, or deployed, said panel at least can rest on the outer edge of the bathtub and such that to cause the panel to assume a position of non-use in application against the wall adjacent to the valve, it is necessary that the lower edge of said panel is higher than the top of the valve.
Grâce à de tels moyens la baignoire peut être utilisée comme telle après escamotage du panneau contre le mur au-dessus de la robinetterie, soit être utilisée commer receveur de douche après mise du panneau en position au-dessus du bord extérieur de la baignoire ; cette position est une position stable puisque pour passer dans une autre position, il est nécessaire d'élever le panneau.Thanks to such means the bathtub can be used as such after retracting the panel against the wall above the fitting, or be used as a shower tray merchant after placing the panel in position above the outer edge of the bathtub; this position is a stable position since to move to another position, it is necessary to raise the panel.
De préférence un second panneau est associé au premier par des moyens lui permettant d'être soit en prolongement du premier soit superposé à celui-ci. Il s'agit en fait d'augmenter la surface du panneau sans lui imposer un encombrement supplémentaire à l'état de non utilisation. Une première solution consiste à articuler par une charnière le second panneau sur le premier, la charnière étant disposée le long du côté opposé à l'opposé du côté adjacent au montant d'articulation fixé au mur. Suivant une seconde solution, qui est une solution préférée s'appliquant bien à des panneaux rectangulaires, les moyens d'association des panneaux sont des moyens de coulissement du second panneau contre le premier. Cette seconde solution a le mérite de permettre la réalisation des panneaux au moyen de vitres encadrées de profilés en aluminium anodisé par exemple. Un mode avantageux de réalisation de tels panneaux sera décrit plus loin.Preferably a second panel is associated with the first by means allowing it to be either in extension of the first or superimposed on the latter. It is actually a question of increasing the surface of the panel without imposing on it an additional bulk when not in use. A first solution consists in hinging the second panel by means of a hinge on the first, the hinge being arranged along the side opposite the opposite of the side adjacent to the articulation amount fixed to the wall. According to a second solution, which is a preferred solution which applies well to rectangular panels, the means for associating the panels are means for sliding the second panel against the first. This second solution has the merit of enabling the panels to be produced by means of panes framed with anodized aluminum profiles for example. An advantageous embodiment of such panels will be described later.
Suivant une 'première forme {de réalisation des moyens d'articulation des panneaux sur le montant, ceux-ci sont constitués par : un profilé comportant une âme creuse et une rainure débouchant dans ladite âme, ledit profilé ayant en outre une structure d'encadrement d'une vitre, un tube cylindrique supporté à ses extrémité par des pièces de fixation au mur, ledit tube ayant une section s'inscrivant juste dans celle de l'âme du premier profilé, et comportant à une certaine hauteur supérieure au sommet de la robinetterie un ergot pouvant circuler dans ladite rainure.According to a 'first embodiment {of the means of articulation of the panels on the upright, these consist of: a profile comprising a hollow core and a groove opening into said core, said profile also having a framing structure of a window pane, a cylindrical tube supported at its ends by parts for fixing to the wall, said tube having a section which just fits into that of the core of the first profile, and comprising at a certain height greater than the top of the valves a lug which can circulate in said groove.
De tels moyens d'articulation sont en outre caractérisés en ce que les positions angulaires de la rainure par rapport au plan du panneau dans le premier profilé et de l'ergot par rapport au dit bout extérieur de la baignoire, sont telles que leur coïncidence n'a lieu que lorsque le panneau est parallèle au bord de la baignoire.Such articulation means are further characterized in that the angular positions of the groove relative to the plane of the panel in the first profile and of the lug relative to said outer end of the bath, are such that their coincidence n takes place only when the panel is parallel to the edge of the tub.
Il résulte de cette disposition des moyens d'articulation que le repliement du panneau contre le mur ne peut avoir lieu que lorsque l'extrémité inférieure du profilé est plus haute que le sommet de la robinetterie.It follows from this arrangement of the articulation means that the folding of the panel against the wall can take place only when the lower end of the profile is higher than the top of the fittings.
Suivant des caractéristiques plus particulières de conformation des panneaux, chacun de ceux-ci est constitué d'une vitre encadrée par des profilés pouvant être de trois profils différents ditspremier, deuxième et troisième.According to more specific characteristics of conformation of the panels, each of these consists of a window framed by profiles which may be of three different profiles called first, second and third.
Ainsi un premier profil est un profil en U aplati dont les ailes sont rabattues vers l'intérieur, l'une des ailes se prolongeant par une cornière, l'espace compris entre les ailes étant destiné à loger une équerre d'angle tandis que l'espace compris entre la cornière et le rabat de l'aile adjacente est destiné à loger le bord de la vitre.Thus, a first profile is a flattened U-shaped profile, the wings of which are folded inward, one of the wings extending by an angle, the space between the wings being intended to accommodate a corner bracket while the he space between the angle iron and the flap of the adjacent wing is intended to accommodate the edge of the glass.
Ainsi encore, le second profil est un profil en W formé d'un profil du premier type dont l'un des côtés est prolongé par une cornière assez grande pour loger un profilé du premier type, le bord de la cornière du premier profil ayant un petit rabat tourné vers l'intérieur de la grande cornière et destiné à servir de glissière au bord extérieur de la cornière du profilé du premier type logé dans la grande cornière.Again, the second profile is a W-shaped profile formed by a profile of the first type, one of the sides of which is extended by an angle large enough to accommodate a profile of the first type, the edge of the angle of the first profile having a small flap facing the inside of the large angle iron and intended to serve as a slide at the outside edge of the angle iron of the profile of the first type housed in the large angle iron.
Ainsi enfin le troisième profil est formé d'un profil du deuxième type accolé à un profil comportant une âme creuse et au moins une échancrure débouchant dans ladite âme.Finally, the third profile is formed of a profile of the second type attached to a profile comprising a hollow core and at least one notch opening into said core.
Les profilés sus-décrits sont utilisés de la manière suivante : la vitre du premier panneau est encadrée par un profilé du troisième type le long d'un de ses côtés verticaux, par des profilés du deuxième type le long de ses côtés supérieurs et inférieurs, et par un profilé du premier type le long de son autre côté vertical, tandis que la vitre du second panneau est encadrée par des profilés du premier type le long de ses quatre côtés.The profiles described above are used in the following manner: the window of the first panel is framed by a profile of the third type along one of its vertical sides, by profiles of the second type along its upper and lower sides, and by a profile of the first type along its other vertical side, while the glass of the second panel is framed by profiles of the first type along its four sides.
Il résulte de cette constitution des panneaux à l'aide des profilés que les profilés du deuxième type du premier panneau peuvent servir de glissières supérieure et inférieure au second panneau et que le premier panneau peut être articulé sur le montant par l'intermédiaire du tube cylindrique.It follows from this constitution of the panels using the profiles that the profiles of the second type of the first panel can serve as upper and lower runners to the second panel and that the first panel can be hinged to the upright via the cylindrical tube.
Suivant une seconde forme de réalisation des moyens d'articulation du premier panneau sur le mur, ceux-ci sont constitués de quatre tronçons d'un profilé à âme creuse comportant une face extérieure plane de fixation: deux tronçons sont fixés sur un profilé deuxième type formant un bord vertical du premier panneau, les deux autres tronçons étant fixés, avec un joint intermédiaire, sur le mur ; un tube cylindrique passe dans les âmes des quatre tronçons et est solidaire, par exemple, des tronçons fixés au mur. De préférence l'une des extrémités des tronçons est coupée en biais de façon à créer une position stable des panneaux à l'aplomb du bord de la baignoire.According to a second embodiment of the means of articulation of the first panel on the wall, these consist of four sections of a hollow-core section having a planar external fixing face: two sections are fixed on a second type section. forming a vertical edge of the first panel, the other two sections being fixed, with an intermediate joint, on the wall; a cylindrical tube passes through the cores of the four sections and is secured, for example, sections fixed to the wall. Preferably one of the ends of the sections is cut at an angle so as to create a stable position of the panels vertically above the edge of the bathtub.

Sur la fig.l une baignoire 1 est disposée dans un angle de salle de bain, son bord extérieur 2 est surmonté d'un dispositif de l'invention constitué essentiellement par un premier panneau 3 et par un second panneau 4 pouvant coulisser contre le premier ; sur la fig.l les panneaux sont représentés en position déployée ou encore d',utilisation.In fig.l a bathtub 1 is arranged in a bathroom corner, its outer edge 2 is surmounted by a device of the invention essentially constituted by a first panel 3 and by a second panel 4 which can slide against the first ; in fig.l the panels are shown in the deployed position or in use.
Sur la fig.2 les panneaux de la figure précédente ont été d'une part rétractés par coulisse- - ment du second contre le premier, d'autre part relevés et ra-. battus contre le mur, au-dessus de la robinetterie 5 de la baignoire ; ces dernières opérations sont autorisées grâce à des moyens d'articulation particuliers du panneau sur le mur par l'intermédiaire d'un montant.On fig.2 the panels of the previous figure were retracted on the one hand - sliding the second against the first, on the other hand raised and ra-. beaten against the wall, above the tap 5 of the bathtub; these latter operations are authorized by special means of articulation of the panel on the wall by means of an upright.
De tels moyens d'articulation sont illustrés, suivant une première forme de réalisation par la fig.3. Ces moyens d'articulation comprennent un profilé à âme creuse 7 participant en outre à l'encadrement d'une.vitre 8, soit en verre,soit de préférence en matière plastique translucide, un montant 9 comportant à ses extrémités des pièces de fixation 10 et 11 respectivement supérieure et inférieure, et un tube cylindrique 12 supporté à ses extrémités par les pièces d'articulation, le tube 12 passant dans l'âme creuse du profilé 7 dont il constitue l'axe de charnière : la structure du profilé 7 sera décrite plus loin en détail ; on remarque toutefois sur la figure que le profilé a été déployé de sa structure à âme creuse, à ses extrémités, la dépouille inférieure formant un petit décrochement pour le logement de la pièce de fixation 11 tandis que la dépouille supérieure est d'une hauteur telle qu'elle permet l'élévation du panneau le long d'un tube 10 sur une.distance h supérieure à la hauteur de la robinetterie au-dessus du bord de la baignoire.Such articulation means are illustrated, according to a first embodiment in FIG. 3. These articulation means comprise a hollow-core profile 7 which also participates in the framing of a glass 8, either in glass or preferably in translucent plastic, an upright 9 comprising at its
On notera que les deux panneaux sont de préférence encadrés complètement par des profilés dont le profil relève de l'invention, profils qui vont être décrits plus en détail en relation avec les figures suivantes avec référence aux lignes de coupe A, B, C de la fig.l.It will be noted that the two panels are preferably completely framed by profiles whose profile falls under the invention, profiles which will be described in more detail in relation to the following figures with reference to the section lines A, B, C of the fig.l.
Sur la fig.6 un premier profilé a un profil, ou coupe transversale, en U aplati dont les ailes 14 et 15 sont rabattues en 16 et 17 vers l'intérieur, l'aile 14 se prolongeant par une cornière 18 ; l'espace rectangulaire compris entre les ailes et le dos 19 du profilé est destiné à loger une équerre d'angle 21 ; l'espace compris entre la cornière 18 et le rabat 16 est destiné à loger le bord d'une vitre 22. Des profilés comportant le profil sus-décrit dit de premier type encadrent complètement le second panneau 4. Suivant la méthode connue, les extrémités de ces profilés sont coupées en onglet et sont maintenues assemblées, soit par collage soit par vissage au moyen d'une cornière d'angle monobloc logée comme dit ci-dessus à l'intérieur de ceux-ci (fig.7). La coupe suivant A de la fig.1 fait apparaître le profil du premier profilé.In Fig.6 a first profile has a profile, or cross section, in a flattened U whose wings 14 and 15 are folded in 16 and 17 inwardly, the wing 14 being extended by an
Sur la fig.5 un deuxième profilé, à profil en W, est constitué de deux parties à savoir un par- - tie 24 située à droite sur la figure et une partie 25 située à gauche ; la partie 24 est un profil analogue à celui de la fig.6 à ceci près que la cornière 18' est prolongée par un- petit rabat 26 tourné vers la partie gauche ; la partie 24 sert au logement d'une vitre 27 et d'équerre telle que 28. La partie 25 sert de logement et de glissière à un profilé 29 du premier type identique à celui de la figure précédente ; on remarque que le bord 30 de la cornière du profilé 29 prend un appui glissant sur le rabat 26 ; la fig.5 est une coupe selon B de la fig.l correspondant au bord supérieur du panneau 3 ; une disposition analogue se retrouve dans le bord opposé inférieur.In fig.5 a second profile, with a W-shaped profile, consists of two parts, namely a
Sur la fig.4, correspondant à la coupe C de la fig.l un profilé 7 est formé d'une partie 32 analogue à celle de la fig.5 et de même largeur L et d'une partie 33 comportant une âme creuse dans laquelle est logé un tube cylindrique 12 et deux échancrures 34 et 35.On fig.4, corresponding to section C of fig.l a section 7 is formed of a
La conformation de la partie 32 du profilé 7 en profil du deuxième type permet d'une part le raccordement au profilé de la fig.5 et d'autre part permet de loger comme indiqué en pointillés, par glissement un profilé 36 d'encadrement du second panneau. Des échancrures 34 et 35 sont destinées d'une part à économiser de la matière, d'autre part. à loger un ergot 38 solidaire du-tube 12 ; la fonction de l'ergot 38 et de sa position angulaire sur le tube 12 par rapport au mur 39 dont est solidaire le tube est bien comprise à l'examen simultané de la fig.3 : lorsque le panneau 3, après avoir été soulevé au-dessus de l'ergot 38 se trouve rabattu (flèche 41) contre le mur 9,. l'échancrure 35 a pris la place occupée par la rainure 34 (fig.4) et l'ergot 35 est situé au-dessous d'une partie pleine de la partie 32 du profilé 7 ; ce dernier est ainsi calé à une hauteur h au-dessus de la robinetterie.The conformation of the
Sur la fig.9 on remarque encore un profilé 42 dont les extrémités 43 et 44 sont conformées en nervure pour recevoir des joints à lèvre 45 et 46 dont_le profil est en forme de virgule ; les joints 45 et 46 sont en une matière élastique de manière à pouvoir être déformés (pointillés 46') lors de la rotation du panneau.In fig.9 there is also a
Le profilé 42 est plaqué contre le mur 39 de façon étanche grâce à un joint adhésif double face 47, par le moyen de pièces de fixation 50 supportant le tube 12 à ses extrémités.The
Sur la fig.8 est montré comment une pièce de fixation 50 est rendue solidaire du tube 12 par une vis 51 qui traverse (fig.4) le profilé 42 pour être vissé; ainsi le profilé 42 et le tube 12 constituent un montant fixe par rapport au mur, montant sur lequel s'articulent et coulissent les panneaux.In fig.8 is shown how a
Sur la fig.9 un panneau 53 analogue au panneau 3 de la fig.l est articulé sur un mur 54, au-dessus du bord extérieur 55 de la baignoire par le moyen de deux tronçons 56 et 57 d'un profilé à âme creuse vissé sur le côté vertical 58 d'encadrement du panneau 3 ; l'âme creuse des tronçons 56 et 57 permet le passage d'un tube cylindrique 59 rendu solidaire du mur, à ses extrémités par des pièces de fixation 60 et 61 elles-mêmes constituées de tronçons du même profilé que les tronçons 56 et 57.In fig.9 a
Sur les fig.10 et 11 un tronçon de profilé à âme creuse est remarquable par l'une de ses extrémités 62 coupée en biais et par une face extérieure plane 63 comportant un couple d'alésages médians tel que 64 et un couple d'alésages latéraux tel que 65 ; les alésages médians situés en regard de lumières 66 destinées .au passage d'un outil, servent à la fixation au mur au moyen d'une vis, (cas des pièces de fixation 60 et 61) tandis que les alésages latéraux 65 servent à la fixation par vissage sur un profilé dit du. second type tel que représenté en fig.5 (tronçons 56 et 57).In FIGS. 10 and 11, a section of hollow-core profile is remarkable by one of its
Sur la fig.12 un profilé en L 28 d'une matière élastique comporte une lèvre 69 et un joint adhésif double face 70 ; un tel profilé est destiné à être interposé entre le mur 54 et les pièces de fixation 60 et 61, sa lèvre 69 s'élevant le long du bord d'encadrement 58 du panneau 53 et prenant appui sur lui lorsqu'il est en position d'utilisation.In fig.12 an L-shaped
Bien que l'on ait décrit et représenté des formes particulières de réalisation d'un écran destiné à l'aménagement d'une baignoire en cabine de douche, il doit être compris que l'invention n'est pas limitée à ces formes mais que sa portée s'étend aux caractéristiques, prises séparément ou en combinaison, énoncées plus haut.Although particular embodiments have been described and shown of a screen intended for the arrangement of a bathtub in a shower cubicle, it should be understood that the invention is not limited to these forms but that its scope extends to the characteristics, taken separately or in combination, set out above.
