Description

La présente invention concerne des bacs de lavage et de séchage ou préséchage, et se rapporte plus particulièrement à des bacs à shampooing.The present invention relates to washing and drying or pre-drying tanks, and relates more particularly to shampoo tanks.

L'invention se rapporte également à des installations de traitement des cheveux, telles que des salons de coiffure pour hommes ou pour dames, comportant de tels bacs.The invention also relates to hair treatment installations, such as hairdressing salons for men or for women, comprising such trays.

On sait que la clientèle des salons de coiffure, et en particulier la clientèle féminine, se plaint souvent du coût élevé des prestations qu'elle reçoit dans ces établissements.We know that customers of hair salons, and in particular female customers, often complain about the high cost of the services they receive in these establishments.

Ce coût élevé correspond pour une grande part à des coûts de main-d'oeuvre, compte tenu de l'importance du personnel requis pour l'exécution des différentes opérations de lavage des cheveux, de préséchage, de teinture, de séchage, de coupe, de coiffure et autres soins qui sont prodigués dans ces établissements.This high cost corresponds in large part to labor costs, taking into account the large number of personnel required for the execution of the various operations of washing the hair, pre-drying, dyeing, drying, cutting. , hairdressing and other care provided in these establishments.

Par la présente invention, on se propose tout à la fois de diminuer le coût des prestations délivrées dans les salons de coiffure, sans porter atteinte à la qualité des services rendus, et d'améliorer la rentabilité de l'exploitation de ces salons, en donnant à la clientèle la possibilité d'exécuter elle-même des opérations qui n'exigent aucune spécialisation ou qualification particulière.By the present invention, it is intended both to reduce the cost of services provided in hairdressing salons, without compromising the quality of the services rendered, and to improve the profitability of operating these salons, by giving customers the possibility of carrying out operations themselves which do not require any specialization or special qualification.

Le but de l'invention est de permettre aux clients ou aux utilisateurs, d'une manière plus générale, de se laver et de se présécher eux- mêmes les cheveux dans des conditions d'hygiène optimales, en occupant une position à la fois convenable et confortable sur le plan ergonomique, et en utilisant un bac à shampooing conforme à l'invention.The object of the invention is to allow customers or users, more generally, to wash and dry their hair themselves under optimal hygienic conditions, by occupying a position that is both suitable and ergonomically comfortable, and using a shampoo tank according to the invention.

Il est déjà connu par FR-A-1 540 515, un tel bac comprenant:

  • - une coque ayant une forme générale ovoïde munie, à sa partie inférieure, d'une bouche d'écoulement des eaux usées, et présentant, dans sa face avant, une grande ouverture destinée à permettre l'engagement dans la coque de la tête et des bras d'un utilisateur assis sur un siège disposé devant la coque,
  • - un organe de douchage alimenté par un mitigeur d'eau chaude et d'eau froide et disposé dans la partie supérieure de la coque de sorte qu'au moins une partie de son jet d'eau soit dirigée vers le centre de la coque, et
  • - un séchoir à air chaud pulsé, débouchant dans la coque de sorte que son jet d'air chaud coit dirigé sensiblement vers le centre de la coque.
It is already known from FR-A-1 540 515, such a container comprising:
  • a shell having a general ovoid shape provided, at its lower part, with a mouth for the discharge of waste water, and having, on its front face, a large opening intended to allow engagement in the shell of the head and arms of a user seated on a seat placed in front of the hull,
  • a shower member supplied with a mixer of hot and cold water and placed in the upper part of the hull so that at least part of its jet of water is directed towards the center of the hull, and
  • - a pulsed hot air dryer, opening into the hull so that its jet of hot air coit directed substantially towards the center of the hull.

Cette réalisation connue ne permet pas d'assurer un bon lavage et un bon rinçage des cheveux de l'utilisateur sans que ce dernier ne soit obligé de se livrer à des contorsions de la tête afin d'exposer sa chevelure au jet d'une unique pomme de douche. De plus, cette réalisation connue ne permet pas un nettoyage automatique de la paroi interne de la coque. Le problème à la base de l'invention est de remédier à ces inconvénients et l'invention a pour objet un bac du type précité, perfectionné afin d'assurer un bon lavage et un bon rinçage non seulement des cheveux d'un utilisateur, mais aussi de la coque elle-même.This known embodiment does not ensure good washing and good rinsing of the user's hair without the latter having to engage in contortions of the head in order to expose his hair to the jet of a single showerhead. In addition, this known embodiment does not allow automatic cleaning of the internal wall of the shell. The problem underlying the invention is to remedy these drawbacks and the invention relates to a tank of the aforementioned type, improved in order to ensure good washing and rinsing not only of the hair of a user, but also of the hull itself.

A cet effet, le bac selon l'invention, du type précité, se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend trois organes de douchage orientables, dont l'un, en position médiane et saillant de la partie arrière de la coque, délivre un jet dirigé sensiblement de haut en bas et de l'arrière vers l'avant contre la partie de la coque située sous l'ouverture de la face avant, et dont les deux autres disposés symétriquement de part et d'autre du premier et saillant sensiblement des parties latérales de la coque, délivrent des jets dirigés sensiblement de haut en bas et transversalement, chacun contre la partie de la coque située sous l'autre organe latéral, et entre ce dernier et l'ouverture, les trois jets se croisant sensiblement au centre de la coque. De la sorte, la coque est lavée et rincée par les effets combinés des trois jets après que l'utilisateur se soit dégagé de la coque.To this end, the tank according to the invention, of the aforementioned type, is characterized in that it comprises three adjustable shower members, one of which, in the middle position and projecting from the rear part of the hull, delivers a jet directed substantially from top to bottom and from rear to front against the part of the shell located under the opening of the front face, and the other two of which are arranged symmetrically on either side of the first and projecting substantially from the lateral parts of the hull, deliver jets directed substantially from top to bottom and transversely, each against the part of the hull located under the other lateral member, and between the latter and the opening, the three jets intersecting substantially in the center of the hull. In this way, the shell is washed and rinsed by the combined effects of the three jets after the user has freed himself from the shell.

Cet avantage est encore renforcé si chaque organe de douchage délivre la majeure fraction de son débit sous la forme d'un jet principal dirigé sensiblement vers le centre de la coque et le reste de sont débit sous la forme de plusieurs jets secondaires dirigés vers la partie médiane ou latérale de la coque par rapport à laquelle l'organe de douchage est saillante, car on obtient ainsi, aussi longtemps que les organes de douchage sont alimentés, un film d'eau pratiquement continu qui s'écoule le long de la paroi interne de la coque en entraînant avec lui la mousse qui ne peut s'accrocher à la coque et se trouve éliminée par la bouche d'évacuation des eaux usées. Le bac à shampooing selon l'invention est donc d'une utilisation fonctionnelle et rentable, puisqu'il est inutile qu'une personne affectée au nettoyage du bac vienne nettoyer ce dernier après le passage de chaque utilisateur.This advantage is further reinforced if each shower member delivers the major fraction of its flow in the form of a main jet directed substantially towards the center of the hull and the rest of its flow is in the form of several secondary jets directed towards the part median or lateral of the shell with respect to which the shower member is projecting, because in this way, as long as the shower members are supplied, a practically continuous film of water which flows along the internal wall of the hull by carrying with it the foam which cannot cling to the hull and is eliminated by the outlet of the waste water. The shampoo tank according to the invention is therefore of functional and profitable use, since it is useless for a person assigned to cleaning the tank to come and clean the latter after the passage of each user.

Avantageusement également, le séchoir à air chaud pulsé débouche dans la partie supérieure de la coque, au voisinage du bord supérieur de l'ouverture, et sensiblement dans l'alignement avec le centre de la coque et la bouche d'écoulement des eaux usées. On obtient ainsi un jet d'air chaud dirigé de haut en bas et sensiblement de l'avant vers l'arrière, qui n'incommode nullement l'utilisateur en lui donnant une sensation de brûlure sur le visage, comme cela serait le cas si le jet d'air chaud était sensiblement dirigé de l'arrière de la coque vers l'avant, et qui est de plus très favorable au balayage et au séchage de la chevelure. De plus, la direction du jet d'air chaud permet, lorsque l'utilisateur s'est dégagé du bac, et après un rinçage de la paroi interne du bac par les organes de douchage, d'assurer un séchage de cette paroi interne par la remontée de l'air chaud le long de cette dernière.Advantageously also, the pulsed hot air dryer opens into the upper part of the shell, in the vicinity of the upper edge of the opening, and substantially in alignment with the center of the shell and the outlet for the wastewater. We thus obtain a jet of hot air directed from top to bottom and appreciably from front to rear, which does not inconvenience the user by giving him a burning sensation on the face, as would be the case if the jet of hot air was appreciably directed from the back of the hull towards the front, and which is moreover very favorable to the sweeping and the drying of the hair. In addition, the direction of the hot air jet allows, when the user has cleared the tank, and after rinsing the internal wall of the tank by the shower members, to ensure drying of this internal wall by the rise of hot air along the latter.

Le bac ainsi réalisé est donc auto-nettoyant et permet une utilisation respectant d'excellentes conditions d'hygiène.The tray thus produced is therefore self-cleaning and allows use respecting excellent hygienic conditions.

Afin que l'utilisateur puisse se positionner convenablement vis-à-vis des organes de douchage et du séchoir du bac, en engageant la tête, les bras et les épaules dans l'ouverture ménagée dans la partie supérieure de la face avant de la coque, l'ouverture est avantageusement délimitée vers le bas par une avancée en arrondi vers le centre de la coque, cette avancée étant destinée à épouser la forme du torse de lutilisateur et à permettre l'engagement sans gêne du buste de ce dernier dans la coque.So that the user can position himself properly vis-à-vis the shower members and the drier of the tank, by engaging the head, arms and shoulders in the opening in the upper part of the front face of the hull, the opening is advantageously delimited downwards by a rounded projection towards the center of the hull, this projection being intended to match the shape of the user's torso and allow the bust of the latter to engage without hindrance in the shell.

L'utilisateur peut ainsi s'asseoir sur une chaise ou un tabouret de hauteur réglable, disposé du côté du centre de l'avancée en arrondi, et se pencher en avant, vers l'intérieur de la coque, sans que le bord inférieur de l'ouverture ne vienne s'enfoncer dans son plexus ou comprimer son estomac. L'utilisateur peut adopter une position qui lui soit confortable sur le plan ergonomique, compte tenu de son physique, tout en exposant convenablement sa tête aux jets d'eau ou d'air chaud.The user can thus sit on a chair or stool of adjustable height, arranged on the side of the center of the rounded projection, and lean forward, towards the inside of the hull, without the lower edge of the opening does not sink into his plexus or compress his stomach. The user can adopt an ergonomically comfortable position, taking into account his physique, while suitably exposing his head to jets of water or hot air.

De préférence, deux surfaces d'appui sont disposées latéralement, de part et d'autre de l'ouverture, et bordent l'avancée en arrondi vers le centre de la coque. Ces surfaces d'appui peuvent servir d'accoudoir à l'utilisateur, afin de lui permettre de se maintenir dans une position plus stable en s'appuyant des avant-bras sur ces surfaces, mais l'utilisateur peut également prendre appui des coudes sur ces surfaces afin de poursuivre le lavage ou le rinçage de sa tête en s'aidant de ses mains sans avoir à maintenir les bras constamment levés, ce qui est source de fatigue. De plus, ces surfaces d'appui, qui sont avantageusement planes, servent de surfaces de pose sur lesquelles l'utilisateur peut disposer les produits capillaires qu'il utilise pour se laver et se rincer les cheveux, voire pour un massage du cuir chevelu durant le préséchage, ainsi éventuellement qu'une serviette.Preferably, two bearing surfaces are arranged laterally, on either side of the opening, and border the rounded projection towards the center of the shell. These bearing surfaces can serve as an armrest for the user, in order to allow him to maintain himself in a more stable position by resting his forearms on these surfaces, but the user can also rest his elbows on these surfaces in order to continue washing or rinsing his head with the help of his hands without having to keep his arms constantly raised, which is a source of fatigue. In addition, these bearing surfaces, which are advantageously flat, serve as laying surfaces on which the user can arrange the hair products which he uses to wash and rinse the hair, or even for a massage of the scalp during pre-drying, and possibly a towel.

Dans une forme préférée de réalisation, chaque surface d'appui est constitué par le plateau supérieur d'un meuble de rangement, de préférence à compartiments, par exemple à tiroirs, dont l'un est destiné à loger un réservoir contenant un adoucisseur d'eau raccordé à l'alimentation en eau et à chacune des pommes de douche, ainsi éventuellement qu'une grille de dépose d'adjuvants colorants ou parfumés, les deux meubles de rangement étant de préférence reliés l'un à l'autre, à leur partie inférieure, par une barre d'appui pour les pieds de l'utilisateur. En calant ses pieds sur la barre d'appui, disposée transversalement sous la coque, l'utilisateur assis sur un siège au centre de l'avancée en arrondi peut prendre une position dans laquelle ses jambes sont par exemple à l'equerre par rapport à son buste penché et engagé dans la coque.In a preferred embodiment, each bearing surface is constituted by the upper plate of a storage unit, preferably with compartments, for example with drawers, one of which is intended to house a tank containing a water softener water connected to the water supply and to each of the shower heads, as well as possibly a grid for depositing coloring or scented additives, the two storage units being preferably connected to each other, to their lower part, by a support bar for the feet of the user. By wedging his feet on the support bar, arranged transversely under the shell, the user seated on a seat in the center of the rounded projection can take a position in which his legs are for example at right angles to his bust bent over and engaged in the hull.

En plus du réservoir contenant l'adoucisseur d'eau et la plaque de dépose d'adjuvants colorés et parfumés, qui permettent d'alimenter les trois organes de douchage avec de l'eau adoucie parfumée et/ou colorée pour le lavage et/ou le rinçage des cheveux, les compartiments, et en particulier des tiroirs des meubles de rangement, peuvent contenir divers accessoires, tels qu'un doseur de savon liquide, par exemple, des produits capillaires ou des serviettes qui sont ainsi à portée de main de l'utilisateur.In addition to the tank containing the water softener and the plate for depositing colored and scented additives, which make it possible to supply the three shower members with scented and / or colored softened water for washing and / or the hair rinse, the compartments, and in particular the drawers of the storage units, can contain various accessories, such as a liquid soap dispenser, for example, hair products or towels which are thus within easy reach of the 'user.

Avantageusement, le bac selon l'invention comprend également une source de lumière, disposée à la partie supérieure de la coque et éclairant l'intérieur de cette dernière, afin de supprimer l'appréhension et l'anxiété que peut provoquer chez certaines personnes particulièrement sensibles ou émotives le fait d'avancer la tête dans un endroit confiné et non éclairé. Cette source de lumière, agencée en plafonnier d'éclairage, est de préférence disposée au voisinage du séchoir à air chaud pulsé, afin que les câbles d'alimentation électrique de ces deux éléments puissent être regroupés et protégés au-dessus de la coque, à l'abri des vapeurs et projections d'eau, conformément aux normes de sécurité en vigueur.Advantageously, the container according to the invention also comprises a light source, disposed at the upper part of the shell and illuminating the interior of the latter, in order to suppress the apprehension and anxiety that can cause certain particularly sensitive people. or emotional about putting your head forward in a confined, unlit area. This light source, arranged as a ceiling light, is preferably placed in the vicinity of the forced air dryer, so that the electrical supply cables of these two elements can be grouped and protected above the hull, protected from water vapor and splashes, in accordance with current safety standards.

A la partie inférieure de la coque, la bouche d'écoulement des eaux usées est protégée par un dispositif de filtrage amovible et se raccorde à un siphon. Le dispositif de filtrage, constitué par exemple d'une grille de protection et d'un tamis, assure la récupération de tous les éléments solides qui peuvent tomber au fond du bac et en particulier des bouchons de flacons ou bouteilles de produits capillaires, ainsi que des cheveux perdus par l'utilisateur, afin d'éviter que le siphon ne se bouche. Ce dernier, avantageusement de grand diamètre, permet une évacuation rapide des eaux usées afin qu'il ne se produise aucune accumulation d'eau dans le fond du bac.At the bottom of the hull, the waste water outlet is protected by a removable filtering device and is connected to a siphon. The filtering device, consisting for example of a protective grid and a sieve, ensures the recovery of all the solid elements which may fall to the bottom of the tank and in particular the caps of flasks or bottles of hair products, as well as hair lost by the user, in order to prevent the siphon from becoming blocked. The latter, advantageously of large diameter, allows rapid evacuation of waste water so that no accumulation of water occurs in the bottom of the tank.

De plus, la coque, les organes de douchage et les conduites d'alimentation en eau de ces derniers, le séchoir ainsi que la source d'éclairage, les surfaces d'appui et les meubles de rangement sont supportés par une ossature et/ou solidarisés à cette ossature, qui porte également des coffrages dans lesquels sont logés des éléments tels que le séchoir et la source d'éclairage, et qui sont munis de panneaux amovibles d'accès à ces éléments, afin de faciliter les opérations d'entretien et de maintenance.In addition, the hull, the shower members and the water supply pipes for the latter, the dryer as well as the light source, the support surfaces and the storage units are supported by a framework and / or secured to this frame, which also carries forms in which are housed elements such as the dryer and the light source, and which are provided with removable panels for access to these elements, in order to facilitate maintenance operations and of maintenance.

Enfin, des organes de commande de l'alimentation des organes de douchage et de réglage de la température de l'eau ainsi que des organes de commande du séchoir et de la source d'éclairage sont accessibles sur la face interne d'une partie latérale de la coque, au voisinage du bord latéral correspondant de l'ouverture, et respectivement du bas vers le haut le long de ce bord latéral de l'ouverture, afin que l'utilisateur puisse sans difficulté commander le fonctionnement de ces éléments sans avoir à changer de position.Finally, power supply control members of the showering and water temperature control members as well as control members of the dryer and the light source are accessible on the internal face of a lateral part. of the shell, in the vicinity of the corresponding lateral edge of the opening, and respectively from bottom to top along this lateral edge of the opening, so that the user can easily control the operation of these elements without having to change position.

Un tel bac de lavage et de séchage, réalisé avec des dimensions plus réduites, peut être utilisé comme lavabo. Dans ce cas, un doseur de savon liquide peut être monté dans la coque. Mais lorsque les dimensions du bac rendent possible son utilisation comme bac à shampooing, ce bac, bien que pouvant être installé et utilisé comme tel chez des particuliers, est particulièrement bien adapté à l'équipement d'installations de traitement des cheveux, du type salon de coiffure, et l'invention se rapporte également à une telle installation comprenant au moins un poste de coupe des cheveux, ainsi qu'au moins un poste de lavage et de préséchage des cheveux, et au moins un poste de teinture et/ou de séchage et/ou de coiffure, et se caractérise en ce que chaque poste de lavage et de préséchage est équipé d'au moins un bac à shampooing selon l'invention.Such a washing and drying tank, made with smaller dimensions, can be used as a sink. In this case, a liquid soap dispenser can be mounted in the shell. But when the dimensions of the container make it possible to use it as a shampoo container, this container, although it can be installed and used as such in private homes, is particularly well suited to equipping hair treatment installations, of the salon type. hairdressing, and the invention also relates to such an installation comprising at least one hair cutting station, as well as at least one hair washing and pre-drying station, and at least one dyeing and / or drying and / or styling station, and is characterized in that each washing and pre-drying station is equipped with at least one shampoo tank according to the invention.

Avantageusement, ces postes sont disposés en un circuit bouclé avec le poste de coupe qu'ils entourent, et de telle sorte qu'à l'entrée comme à la sortie du circuit, les utilisateurs passent dans un vestiaire à casiers individuels, dans l'un desquels un utilisateur peut déposer et enfermer certains de ses effets personnels, par exemple un sac à main, une veste, etc., afin de ne pas être gêné par ces derniers, pendant tout le temps que dure son passage aux différents postes, la clé du casier lui étant remise à une caisse devant laquelle les utilisateurs passent avant leur passage dans le vestiaire qui précède l'entrée dans le circuit et après leur passage dans le vestiaire qui suit la sortie du circuit. De préférence, l'installation comprend au moins un présentoir de produits capillaires devant lequel passent les utilisateurs avant d'accéder à la caisse, de sorte qu'un utilisateur peut choisir sur le ou les présentoirs les produits dont il a besoin, payer ces produits en passant à la caisse et y recevoir une clé de casier de vestiaire ainsi éventuellement qu'un peignoir, puis entrer dans le vestiaire, déposer et enfermer dans le casier correspondant ceux de ses effets personnels qu'il ne souhaite pas garder avec lui, et revêtir le peignoir, puis entrer dans le circuit des différents postes de traitement des cheveux, en commençant par un bac à shampooing dans lequel il se lave lui- même les cheveax et se les sèche à sa convenance, en fonction des opérations suivantes envisagées.Advantageously, these stations are arranged in a looped circuit with the cutting station which they surround, and so that at the entry as at the exit of the circuit, the users pass in a cloakroom with individual lockers, in the one of which a user can deposit and lock up some of his personal effects, for example a handbag, a jacket, etc., so as not to be hampered by them, during the entire period of his passage at the various stations, the the locker key being given to him at a cash register in front of which the users pass before their passage in the cloakroom which precedes the entry in the circuit and after their passage in the cloakroom which follows the exit from the circuit. Preferably, the installation comprises at least one display of hair products in front of which the users pass before accessing the cash register, so that a user can choose from the display (s) the products he needs, pay for these products. by going to the cashier and receiving there a locker room key as well as possibly a bathrobe, then entering the locker room, depositing and locking up in the corresponding locker those of his personal effects which he does not wish to keep with him, and put on the bathrobe, then enter the circuit of the various hair treatment stations, starting with a shampoo tank in which he washes the hair himself and dries it at his convenience, depending on the following operations envisaged.

A la fin du circuit, il retourne au vestiaire où il récupère ses effets personnels dans le casier dont il possède la clé, puis passe à la caisse où il rend la clé et son peignoir et paie les prestations qu'il a reçues aux différents postes de l'installation qu'il a fréquentés.At the end of the circuit, he returns to the cloakroom where he collects his personal effects in the locker for which he has the key, then goes to the cashier where he returns the key and his robe and pays for the services he received at the various stations of the installation he attended.

Une telle installation peut équiper aussi bien les salons de coiffure pour dames que pour hommes et permet d'améliorer la fréquentation, et donc la rentabilité de ces salons, à la satisfaction, d'une part, des clients, sensibles au moindre coût qui leur est demandé compte tenu de leur participation active, laquelle n'est pas limitée au lavage et au préséchage de leurs cheveux mais peut également s'étendre au séchage après une opération de teinte des cheveux, ou à la mise en forme et au brossage, après une coupe, et d'autre part du personnel du salon de coiffure, qui se voit affecté uniquement aux tâches nobles et spécialisées comme la coupe.Such an installation can equip both hairdressing salons for ladies and for men and makes it possible to improve the frequentation, and therefore the profitability of these salons, to the satisfaction, on the one hand, of customers, sensitive to the lower cost which their is required given their active participation, which is not limited to washing and pre-drying their hair but can also extend to drying after a hair dyeing operation, or to shaping and brushing, after a haircut, and on the other hand the staff of the hairdressing salon, who is assigned only to noble and specialized tasks like cutting.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide d'un exemple particulier de réalisation décrit ci-après à titre non limitatif en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:

  • - la figure 1 est une vue schématique en coupe médiane et verticale d'un bac à shampooing,

  • - la figure 5 est une vue schématique en plan d'une installation de traitement de cheveux équipée de bacs à shampooing selon les figures 1 à 4.
The invention will be better understood using a particular embodiment described below without implied limitation with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic view in median and vertical section of a shampoo tank,
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view along II-II of FIG. 1,
  • FIG. 3 is a schematic perspective view of the shell and of the two storage units of a container according to FIGS. 1 and 2,
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic perspective view of the container according to FIGS. 1 to 3 provided with cladding forms, and
  • FIG. 5 is a schematic plan view of a hair treatment installation equipped with shampoo tanks according to FIGS. 1 to 4.

En référence aux figures 1 à 4, le bac à shampooing comprend une coque lisse 1 en matière plastique, de forme extérieure sensiblement ovoïde, constituée par la solidarisation, par exemple par soudage ou par collage, dans un plan vertical et médian, de deux demi-conques symétriques venues de moulage. Une ouverture 2 est ménagée dans la partie supérieure de la face avant de cette coque 1, et cette ouverture 2 est délimitée vers le bas par le bord supérieur 3 d'une avancée 4 en arrondi vers le centre de la coque 1. La profondeur de cette avancée 4 diminue progressivement vers la partie inférieure de la coque 1, jusqu' à disparaître avant une bouche d'évacuation percée dans le fond de la coque 1, à laquelle se raccorde un collecteur conique d'évacuation 5 se prolongeant d'un siphon 6. L'embouchure du collecteur 5 est d'un diamètre important (de l'ordre de 8 à 10 cm) et le siphon 6 est à gros débit d'écoulement. Un dispositif de filtrage amovible, constitué d'un tamis 7 tronconique à mailles très fines logé dans le collecteur 5 et protégé par une grille 8 disposée au-dessus du tamis 7, est disposé dans la bouche d'évacuation et peut en être retiré à l'aide d'un crochet.With reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, the shampoo tank comprises a smooth shell 1 of plastic material, of substantially ovoid external shape, formed by the joining, for example by welding or by gluing, in a vertical and median plane, of two half -symmetrical shells coming from molding. An opening 2 is provided in the upper part of the front face of this shell 1, and this opening 2 is delimited downwards by the upper edge 3 of a projection 4 rounded towards the center of the shell 1. The depth of this projection 4 gradually decreases towards the lower part of the shell 1, until it disappears before a discharge opening pierced in the bottom of the shell 1, to which a conical discharge collector 5 is connected, extending from a siphon 6. The mouth of the collector 5 has a large diameter (of the order of 8 to 10 cm) and the siphon 6 has a large flow rate. A removable filtering device, consisting of a frustoconical sieve 7 with very fine meshes housed in the collector 5 and protected by a grid 8 disposed above the sieve 7, is disposed in the discharge mouth and can be removed therefrom. using a hook.

Dans un plan horizontal situé sensiblement au tiers supérieur de la coque 1, trois organes de douchage orientables 9 sont montés saillants à l'intérieur de la coque 1. Un organe de douchage 9 en position médiane sur la face arrière de la coque 1 est limité dans ses débattements angulaires d'orientation de telle sorte que son jet principal soit toujours dirigé de haut en bas et de l'arrière vers l'avant, en direction du centre de la coque 1 et contre la face interne de la partie de coque 1 correspondant à l'avancée 4, mais en plus de ce jet principal, qui correspond environ aux deux tiers du débit d'alimentation de cet organe de douchage, ce dernièr envoie un grand nombre de jets secondaires contre la face interne de la partie arrière de la coque 1 par rapport à laquelle cet organe de dovehage 9 est en saillie. Ceci est obtenu grâce à des trous percés dans la moitié inférieure de la partie conique tournée vers la coque 1 du dos de l'organe de douchage 9. Le débit total de ces jets secondaires correspond au tiers du débit d'alimentation de cet organe de douchage 9. Les deux autres organes de douchage 9, identiques au premièr, sont diposés symétriquement de part et d'autre du premièr organe de douchage, avec un écartement angulaire de l'ordre de 70° par rapport à celle-ci. Chacun d'eux, en saillie sur une partie latérale de la coque 1, arrose la face interne de cette même partie latérale par ses jets secondaires et arrose la face intérieure de l'autre partie latérale de la coque 1 par son jet principal, et les débattements angulaires d'orientation des deux organes de douchage latéraux 9 sont limités de sorte que leur jet principal soit toujours dirigé de haut en bas et sensiblement transversalement, en direction du centre de la coque 1. Au voisinage du bord supérieur 10 de l'ouverture 2, débouche dans la coque 1 la grille de sortie à volets orientables 11 d'un séchoir à air chaud pulsé 12 monté au-dessus de la coque 1. Ce séchoir comporte également une grille d'admission 13 s'ouvrant vers l'avant de la coque 1, un moteur électrique 14 refroidi par l'écoulement de l'air frais aspiré par un ventilateur 15 entraîné par le moteur, cet air frais étant réchauffé par circulation autour de résistances électriques blindées de chauffage 16. Le débattement angulaire de réglage des volets orientables de la grille de sortie 11 est limité de telle sorte que le jet d'air chaud projeté à l'intérieur de la coque 1 soit toujours dirigé sensiblement vers le centre de la coque 1 et vers la bouche d'évacuation des eaux usées. Au voisinage de la grille de sortie 11, vers l'intérieur de la coque 1, cette dernière présente une fenêtre 18 transparente ou translucide fermée de manière étanche, constituée par une plaque de verre ou de matière plastique, et au-dessus de laquelle est installée une source d'éclairage constituée par exemple de deux petits tubes au néon 18 qui éclairent l'intérieur de la coque 1.In a horizontal plane located substantially at the upper third of the shell 1, three orientable shower members 9 are mounted projecting inside the shell 1. A shower member 9 in the middle position on the rear face of the shell 1 is limited in its angular deflections of orientation so that its main jet is always directed from top to bottom and from the rear towards the front, towards the center of the hull 1 and against the internal face of the hull part 1 corresponding to the advance 4, but in addition to this main jet, which corresponds to about two thirds of the supply flow rate of this shower member, the latter sends a large number of secondary jets against the internal face of the rear part of the shell 1 with respect to which this dovehage member 9 is projecting. This is obtained by means of holes drilled in the lower half of the conical part facing the shell 1 of the back of the shower member 9. The total flow rate of these secondary jets corresponds to one third of the feed flow rate of this body shower 9. The two other shower members 9, identical to the first, are symmetrically arranged on either side of the first shower member, with an angular spacing of the order of 70 ° relative to the latter. Each of them, projecting from a lateral part of the shell 1, sprinkles the internal face of this same lateral part with its secondary jets and sprinkles the internal face of the other lateral part of the shell 1 with its main jet, and the angular deflections of orientation of the two lateral shower members 9 are limited so that their main jet is always directed from top to bottom and substantially transversely, towards the center of the hull 1. In the vicinity of the upper edge 10 of the opening 2, opens into the shell 1 the outlet grille with adjustable flaps 11 of a pulsed hot air dryer 12 mounted above the shell 1. This dryer also comprises an intake grille 13 opening towards the before the hull 1, an electric motor 14 cooled by the flow of fresh air sucked in by a fan 15 driven by the motor, this fresh air being heated by circulation around armored electric heating resistors 16. The angular movement e adjustment of the orientable flaps of the outlet grille 11 is limited so that the jet of hot air projected inside the shell 1 is always directed substantially towards the center of the shell 1 and towards the mouth of sewage disposal. In the vicinity of the outlet grid 11, towards the inside of the shell 1, the latter has a transparent or translucent window 18 closed in leaktight manner, constituted by a plate of glass or plastic, and above which is installed a light source consisting for example of two small neon tubes 18 which illuminate the interior of the shell 1.

L'ensemble de la coque 1, de par son dispositif de filtratage 7 et 8, des organes de douchage 9 et de leurs conduites d'alimentation (non représentées pour des raisons de clarté), du collecteur d'évacuation 5 et du siphon 6 ainsi que du séchoir à air chaud pulsé 12 et du plafonnier d'éclairage, constitué par la fenêtre 17 et les tubes au néon 18, est supporté par une ossature en bois ou en métal, dont seuls quelques éléments ont été représentés, afin de ne pas surcharger les dessins. La coque 1 repose dans un arceau principal 19 en arc de cercle dont le diamètre interne est inférieur à celui du maître-couple de la coque 1, et qui s'interrompt aux deux bords latéraux de l'avancée en arrondi 4. Cet arceau 19 est lui- même supporté par des montants verticaux tels que 20 solidarisés les uns aux autres par des longerons tels que 21 et par des traverses telles que 22. Les organes de douchage 9 sont, ainsi que leurs conduites d'alimentation, essentiellement supportées par un arceau supérieur 23 également solidaire des montants 20, tandis que le séchoir 12 et le plafonnier à tubes au néon 18 sont supportés au-dessus de la coque 1 par d'autres longerons tels que 24 et d'autres traverses telles que 25 également solidaires des montants 20. Des coffrages, réalisés de manière connue à l'aide de plaques d'un matériau relativement rigide fixées à l'ossature, enveloppent la coque 1, ou au moins sa partie avant, ainsi que le séchoir 12 et le plafonnier à tubes au néon 18, dont les câbles d'alimentation électrique 26 sont regroupés en un faisceau terminé par des connecteurs de raccordement à l'installation électrique du local dans lequel le bac doit être installé.The whole of the shell 1, by virtue of its filtering device 7 and 8, of the shower members 9 and their supply lines (not shown for reasons of clarity), of the evacuation collector 5 and of the siphon 6 as well as the forced air dryer 12 and the ceiling light, constituted by the window 17 and the neon tubes 18, is supported by a wooden or metal frame, of which only a few elements have been represented, so as not to not overload the drawings. The shell 1 rests in a main hoop 19 in an arc of a circle whose internal diameter is less than that of the master couple of the hull 1, and which is interrupted at the two lateral edges of the rounded projection 4. This hoop 19 is itself supported by vertical uprights such as 20 secured to one another by beams such as 21 and by crosspieces such as 22. The shower members 9 are, like their supply lines, essentially supported by a upper arch 23 also secured to the uprights 20, while the dryer 12 and the neon tube ceiling light 18 are supported above the shell 1 by other longitudinal members such as 24 and other cross members such as 25 also secured to the uprights 20. Formwork, produced in a known manner using plates of a relatively rigid material fixed to the frame, surround the shell 1, or at least its front part, as well as the dryer 12 and the ceiling lamp neon 18, whose power supply cables 26 are grouped in a bundle terminated by connectors for connection to the electrical installation of the room in which the tank is to be installed.

Comme représenté sur la figure 4, l'ensemble du bac peut être logé dans un coffrage à compartiments, de forme extérieure parallélépipédique, muni d'un panneau 37 inférieur et latéral, amovible, permettant l'accès au siphon 6 logé dans le compartiment délimité sous la partie arrière de la coque 1, en plus de l'ouverture laissée dans le panneau arrière du coffrage afin de permettre le raccordement du siphon 6 à la conduite d'évacuation des eaux usées du local. De même, le compartiment supérieur du coffrage, dans lequel sont logés le séchoir 12 et les tubes au néon 18, se ferme par un panneau amovible 38 qui permet l'accès au séchoir 12 et aux tubes au néon 18 ainsi qu'à leurs câbles d'alimentation électrique 26. La grille d'entrée (13) peut elle-même être montée dans un panneau frontal 39 amovible, afin de faciliter toute intervention au niveau du séchoir 12.As shown in Figure 4, the entire tank can be housed in a formwork with compartments, of parallelepiped external shape, provided with a bottom and side panel 37, removable, allowing access to the siphon 6 housed in the delimited compartment under the rear part of the hull 1, in addition to the opening left in the rear panel of the formwork in order to allow the connection of the siphon 6 to the local wastewater evacuation pipe. Similarly, the upper compartment of the formwork, in which the dryer 12 and the neon tubes 18 are housed, is closed by a removable panel 38 which allows access to the dryer 12 and to the neon tubes 18 and their cables. power supply 26. The inlet grid (13) can itself be mounted in a removable front panel 39, in order to facilitate any intervention at the level of the dryer 12.

Le coffrage enveloppe également deux compartiments latéraux, disposés sur l'avant de la coque 1 et aménagés en meuble de rangement 28 à tiroirs, dont les plateaux supérieurs 29 constituent deux surfaces d'appui ou surfaces de pose, qui bordent des deux côtés le bord supérieur 3 de l'avancée en arrondi 4 et qui se trouvent sensiblement dans le prolongement de ce bord supérieur 3 qui, vu en plan, a sensiblement la forme d'un demi-cercle. Chaque meuble 28 comporte un tiroir inférieur 30 de grande capacité au-dessus duquel sont montés coulissants deux tiroirs 31 plus petits, et les deux coffrages des tiroirs 30 de grande capacité sont reliés l'un à l'autre, sous la partie inférieure de la coque 1, par une barre d'appui transversale 32 située à environ 10 cm du sol. L'un de ces tiroirs 30 renferme un réservoir raccordé aux canalisations d'alimentation des organes de douchage 9 dont est équipé le bac et d'arrivée de l'eau par des tuyaux souples, et ce réservoir contient un adoucisseur d'eau ainsi qu'une grille de dépose d'adjuvants colorés et/ou parfumés, destinés à colorer et/ou à parfumer l'eau utilisée pour le lavage et/ou le rinçage des cheveux de l'utilisateur.The formwork also envelops two lateral compartments, arranged on the front of the shell 1 and fitted out as a storage unit 28 with drawers, the upper plates 29 of which constitute two bearing surfaces or laying surfaces, which border the edge on both sides. upper 3 of the rounded projection 4 and which are substantially in the extension of this upper edge 3 which, seen in plan, has substantially the shape of a semicircle. Each piece of furniture 28 comprises a large capacity lower drawer 30 above which two smaller drawers 31 are slidably mounted, and the two forms of large capacity drawers 30 are connected to each other, under the lower part of the shell 1, by a transverse support bar 32 located approximately 10 cm from the ground. One of these drawers 30 contains a tank connected to the supply pipes for the showering members 9 with which the tank is fitted and the water inlet by flexible pipes, and this tank contains a water softener as well as '' a grid for depositing colored and / or scented additives, intended to color and / or perfume the water used for washing and / or rinsing the user's hair.

La commande de l'alimentation des organes de douchage 9 s'effectue en appuyant sur un bouton poussoir 33 muni d'un index et dont la rotation en regard d'une échelle graduée permet de régler la température du mélange d'eau chaude et d'eau froide assuré par un mitigeur. Ce bouton de commande 33 est accessible sur la face interne de la partie latérale de droite de la coque 1, au voisinage du bord latéral droit de l'ouverture 2 de la coque 1 et près de la surface de pose 29 correspondante. Deux interrupteurs étanches 34 et 35, par exemple à membranne, également situés au voisinage du bord latéral droit de l'ouverture 2, mais dans la partie supérieure de la face interne de la coque 1, permettent de commander respectivement le fonctionnement du séchoir 12 et l'allumage des tubes au néon 18. Afin de se laver les cheveux, un utilisateur prend place sur un tabouret 36 de hauteur réglable, disposé devant la coque 1 vers le centre de l'avancée en arrondi 4. L'utiliseur règle la hauteur du tabouret 36 de sorte qu'en prenant appui avec les pieds sur la barre d'appui 32, il puisse se pencher à l'équerre vers l'intérieur de la coque 1 et engager la tête, les bras et les épaules dans cette dernière sans être gêné par le bord 3 qui épouse la forme du torse de l'utilisateur et permet à son buste un libre accès à l'intérieur de la coque 1, sans compression stomacale ni enfoncement du plexus.The control of the supply of the shower members 9 is carried out by pressing a push button 33 provided with an index and whose rotation opposite a graduated scale makes it possible to adjust the temperature of the mixture of hot water and d cold water provided by a mixer tap. This control button 33 is accessible on the internal face of the right lateral part of the shell 1, in the vicinity of the right lateral edge of the opening 2 of the shell 1 and near the corresponding laying surface 29. Two waterproof switches 34 and 35, for example with a membrane, also located in the vicinity of the right lateral edge of the opening 2, but in the upper part of the internal face of the shell 1, make it possible to com respectively instruct the operation of the dryer 12 and the lighting of the neon tubes 18. In order to wash the hair, a user takes place on a stool 36 of adjustable height, placed in front of the shell 1 towards the center of the rounded projection 4. The user adjusts the height of the stool 36 so that by taking support with the feet on the support bar 32, he can lean square towards the inside of the shell 1 and engage the head, arms and shoulders in the latter without being hampered by the edge 3 which follows the shape of the user's torso and allows his bust free access to the interior of the shell 1, without stomach compression or sinking of the plexus.

L'utilisateur peut disposer sur les surfaces de pose 29 les produits capillaires nécessaires au lavage et au rinçage de ses cheveux, ainsi éventuellement qu'une serviette qu'il peut également ranger dans l'un des tiroirs 31 en attendant d'en avoir besoin. De sa main driote, il allume les tubes au néon 18 en manoeuvrant l'interrupteur 35, puit règle la température de l'eau en tournant le bouton 33 et appuie sur ce dernier pour commande l'alimentation des organes de douchage 9 en eau à la température choisie. Il se penche ensuite et engage la tête et les épaules dans la coque 1, par l'ouverture 2 dont la taille permet aux bras et avant-bras de se mouvoir librement, afin que l'utilisateur puisse aisément se laver la tête à l'aide de ses deux mains.The user can place on the laying surfaces 29 the hair products necessary for washing and rinsing his hair, as well as possibly a towel which he can also store in one of the drawers 31 while waiting for needing it. . With his driote hand, he lights the neon tubes 18 by operating the switch 35, then regulates the water temperature by turning the button 33 and presses the latter to control the supply of the shower members 9 with water. the chosen temperature. He then bends over and engages his head and shoulders in the shell 1, through the opening 2, the size of which allows the arms and forearms to move freely, so that the user can easily wash his head. help with both hands.

Les cheveux de l'utilisateur sont abondamment exposés aux jets principaux des trois organes de douchage 9 qui se croisent sensiblement au centre de la coque 1, là ou se place la tête de l'utilisateur, sans qu'il en résulte une gêne pour ce dernier, dont le visage n'est pas exposé aux jets compte tenu des orientations de ces derniers, et sans projection d'eau vers l'extérieur de la coque 1.The user's hair is abundantly exposed to the main jets of the three shower members 9 which intersect substantially in the center of the shell 1, where the user's head is placed, without this causing discomfort. last, whose face is not exposed to the jets taking into account the orientations of the latter, and without projection of water towards the outside of the shell 1.

Comme les jets principaux et les jets secondaires des organes de douchage 9 coopèrent afin de faire ruisseler un film d'eau continu le long de toute la face interne de la coque 1, en dessous du niveau des organes de douchage 9, tant que ces dernières sont alimentées, il en résulte que la mousse de shampooing qui tombe des cheveux de l'utilisateur sur la face interne de la coque 1 est entraînée par ce film d'eau vers la bouche d'évacuation, de sorte que le lavage du bac est automatiquement assurée. Au besoin, l'utilisateur peut commander pendant quelques secondes l'alimentation des organes de douchage 9 après avoir retiré sa tête, à la fin du rinçage. Les objets, tels que bouchons de récipients de produits capillaires, qui viendraient à tomber dans le bac, sont retenus par la grille 8 tandis que les cheveux perdus sont récupérés sur le tamis 7, et ne peuvent obstruer l'évacuation de l'eau.As the main jets and the secondary jets of the shower members 9 cooperate in order to cause a continuous film of water to flow along the entire internal face of the shell 1, below the level of the shower members 9, as long as the latter are fed, it follows that the shampoo foam which falls from the hair of the user on the internal face of the shell 1 is entrained by this film of water towards the evacuation mouth, so that the washing of the tank is automatically insured. If necessary, the user can control for a few seconds the supply of the shower members 9 after having removed his head, at the end of the rinsing. Objects, such as caps for containers of hair products, which would fall into the tank, are retained by the grid 8 while the lost hair is recovered on the sieve 7, and cannot obstruct the evacuation of the water.

Ayant terminé le rinçage, et interrompu l'alimentation des organes de douchage 9, l'utilisateur actionne l'interrupteur 34 afin de commander le fonctionnement du séchoir. Compte tenu de l'orientation du jet d'air chaud sortant par la grille 11 par rapport à la position occupée par la tête de l'utilisateur, le séchage des cheveux est très efficace sans pour autant gêner l'utilisateur au niveau de son visage. De plus, par déviation du jet d'air chaud sur le fond de la coque 1, l'air chaud remonte le long de la face interne de cette dernière et vient chasser les gouttelettes d'eau qui ont pu rester accrochées à la suite du rinçage automatique du bac, et assèche ce dernier, qui est ainsi prêt pour un nouvel utilisateur, sans intervention d'un personnel de nettoyage.Having finished rinsing, and interrupted the supply of the showering members 9, the user actuates the switch 34 in order to control the operation of the dryer. Given the orientation of the jet of hot air exiting through the grid 11 relative to the position occupied by the head of the user, the drying of the hair is very effective without disturbing the user at the level of his face . In addition, by deflecting the jet of hot air on the bottom of the shell 1, the hot air rises along the internal face of the latter and comes to drive out the water droplets which may have remained attached following the automatic rinsing of the tank, and dries it, which is thus ready for a new user, without the intervention of a cleaning staff.

Sur la figure 5, on a schématiquement représenté en plan une installation de traitement des cheveux du type salon de coiffure pour dames, équipée de plusieurs bacs à shampooing tel que celui décrit ci-dessus en référence aux figures 1 à 4, et dont chacun est un élément aisément transportable et facile à installer puisqu'il suffit de raccorder les circuits électriques et hydrauliques prémontés sur le bac aux circuits correspondant du local recevant le bac.In Figure 5, there is schematically shown in plan a hair treatment installation of the hairdressing salon type for ladies, equipped with several shampoo tanks such as that described above with reference to Figures 1 to 4, and each of which is an element which is easily transportable and easy to install since it suffices to connect the electrical and hydraulic circuits pre-assembled on the tank to the corresponding circuits of the room receiving the tank.

Le salon de coiffure représenté sur la figure 5 comprend un sas d'entrée 40 à deux portes, communiquant avec un hall de réception 41 dans lequel sont disposées des banquettes d'attente 42, un présentoir 43 de produits capillaires tels que flacons de shampooing, vaporisateurs de laque, etc., et une caisse 44, à laquelle l'utilisateur d'une part paie les produits qu'il a choisis sur le présentoir 43 et d'autre part reçoit une clé d'un casier de vestiaire et un peignoir, avant d'entrer dans le vestiaire à casiers 45. Il dépose et enferme ceux de ses effets personnels dont il veut se débarrasser dans son casier, revêt le peignoir et peut ensuite entrer dans le salon de coiffure proprement dit, et s'installer devant l'un des quatre bacs à shampooing 46, identiques à celui décrit ci-dessus en référence aux figures 1 à 4, qui constituent le poste de lavage, de rinçage et de préséchage des cheveux. Après un shampooing et un préséchage, il peut se rendre à l'un ou successivement à plusieurs des autres postes qui sont un poste de coupe des cheveux 47, en position centrale et adossé aux casiers 45 du vestiaire, et un poste de teinture 48, équipé notamment de sièges, un poste de séchage 49, équipé essentiellement de sièges et de séchoirs à air chaud pulsé, et un poste de coiffure 50 équipé essentiellement de sièges et de miroirs, qui entourent le poste de coupe 47.The hair salon shown in FIG. 5 includes an entrance airlock 40 with two doors, communicating with a reception hall 41 in which waiting benches 42 are arranged, a display 43 of hair products such as shampoo bottles, lacquer sprays, etc., and a case 44, to which the user on the one hand pays for the products he has chosen on the display stand 43 and on the other hand receives a key from a locker and a bathrobe , before entering the locker room 45. He deposits and encloses those of his personal effects which he wants to get rid of in his locker, puts on the robe and can then enter the hairdressing salon proper, and sit in front one of the four shampoo tanks 46, identical to that described above with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, which constitute the station for washing, rinsing and pre-drying the hair. After shampooing and pre-drying, he can go to one or successively to several of the other stations which are a hair-cutting station 47, in the central position and backed by the lockers 45 in the cloakroom, and a dyeing station 48, equipped in particular with seats, a drying station 49, essentially equipped with seats and pulsed hot air dryers, and a hairdressing station 50 mainly equipped with seats and mirrors, which surround the cutting station 47.

Il est à noter qu'au niveau des postes de séchage 49 et de coiffure 50, l'utilisateur peut également se passer de toute assistance du personnel de l'établissement.It should be noted that at the drying stations 49 and hairdressing stations 50, the user can also do without any assistance from the staff of the establishment.

En fin de circuit, l'utilisateur passe du poste de coiffure 50 au vestiaire, où il récupère ses effets personnels puis paie les prestations reçues à la caisse 44 et rend la clé de son casier ainsi que son peignoir avant de quitter l'établissement.At the end of the circuit, the user goes from the hairdressing station 50 to the cloakroom, where he collects his personal effects then pays for the services received at the cash register 44 and returns the key to his locker as well as his robe before leaving the establishment.
