Definitions

  • the present invention relates to motorized covers of swimming pools or other basins filled with a liquid.
  • swimming pool covers are more and more widespread because they protect the swimming pool so as to avoid water fouling, evaporation and loss of calories.
  • This cover can be achieved by means of tarpaulins stretched over the pool or of floating bodies but the installation and removal of these require long and tedious operations.
  • the drive device constituted by a geared motor is installed in a pit which is adjacent to the basin, which means that you have to cross the wall with all the problems sealing that this generates. In addition, it is necessary to build or bring back a pit receiving the motorization.
  • the gearmotor is located above the level of the basin, which means that the box has to be raised and its width greater than that of the basin.
  • the drive system generally consisting of sprockets and chains, is then placed in the water.
  • Such a winding device is described in particular in patent FR-A-2,450,927.
  • the motorization systems are arranged as an extension of the cylinder which is fixed to the walls of the basin, which again requires work to be carried out on the sealing thereof.
  • the gearmotor although arranged in alignment with the roller, is secured to the latter by an output shaft, which therefore results in a cantilever construction, the assembly tending to s' brace.
  • the cover not being supported over its entire length, tends to deform more quickly, which requires changing it relatively often.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a roller drive device which, as in patent FR-A-2.508.525, can accommodate the roller and its drive device across the width of the pool without having to perform no masonry work to allow a quick and inexpensive installation of the motorized cover while allowing to obtain an extreme solidity of the assembly as well as a good seal and low wear of the drive system and the blanket.
  • the invention relates to a motorized cover for swimming pools and other similar basins of the type comprising floating elements, such as lamellae, hinged together and which are wound on a horizontal roller of length less than the width of the basin which is transversely immersed in said pool and which is rotated by a geared motor group, characterized in that the roller is kept submerged inside the pool by means of a frame which takes the shape of a U whose soul is disposed above or flush with the water level and supports means for covering the automatic cover, such as a grating, and, the branches of which encase said roller and support on their internal face bearings receiving the ends of said roller.
  • the motorized cover of a swimming pool or other similar basins, object of the invention comprises floating elements, such as lamellae 26, hinged together, which are wound on a horizontal roller 1.
  • This horizontal cylindrical roller 1 is of length less than the width of the basin 46 and is immersed transversely in said swimming pool.
  • This roller 1 is driven in rotation by a geared motor group 14.
  • the peculiarity of the motorized cover, object of the invention resides on the one hand in its frame which allows its positioning in the swimming pool, on the other hand in the design of the roller / gearmotor group assembly.
  • the frame is in particular shown in Figures 4 and 5.
  • This frame which has the general shape of a U is such that the hollow core 4, 5, 10 is arranged above or flush with the level water so as to be able to support means for covering the automatic cover, such as a grating, and the branches 2, 3 of said frame encase said roller 1 and support on their internal faces bearings 6, 7 receiving the ends of said roller.
  • the core of the frame also projects at each of its ends from the flanges 2 and 3 so as to be able to bear on appropriate supports 8 so that the frame is placed in suspension in the water.
  • the beam supports 8 are fixed to the walls of the basin above the water level by suitable fixing means 44, a seal being inserted between the support 8 and the wall side of the pool.
  • These supports 8 receive the beams 4 and 5 on which are welded U-shaped sections 9 which receive the crosspieces 10.
  • On these crosspieces are fixed the flanges 2 and 3 by means, for example, of brackets 22 and 23 which cooperate with studs.
  • On the inner face of the flange 2 is fixed the bearing on the motor side 6 and on the flange 3 is fixed the bearing on the free side 7.
  • the geared motor group 14 therefore consists of a body, one end of which has a fixed output shaft 47 and the other end of which has a rotary drive shaft 48.
  • the rotary drive shaft 48 of the gearmotor group 14 is engaged with an intermediate flange 15 disposed inside the roller 1 by means of a key 16.
  • This flange 15 is in turn mounted integral with the internal peripheral walls of the roller by means of screws.
  • the other end of the gearmotor group 14 constituted by the fixed shaft 47 protrudes from the roller / gearmotor assembly by passing through a flange 18 disposed at the end of the roller / gearmotor assembly and mounted integral with the peripheral walls internal of the roller again by means of screws.
  • Bearings 39 housed in a annular housing of said flange 18 are arranged at the periphery of this fixed shaft 47 so as to facilitate rotation of the shaft 47 inside said support plate 18.
  • This shaft 47 comes to rest in the bearing 6 fixed on the branch 2 of the roller support frame and is immobilized inside this bearing 6 by means of a through pin 19.
  • the other end of the roller / gearmotor group 14 assembly is closed by a plate or flange 17 also mounted integral with the internal peripheral walls of the roller 1 by means of a pin 35 which also passes through a shaft or axis 34 so as to make this axis of the plate 17 integral.
  • This axis projects out of the assembly roller 1 / gearmotor group 14 and comes rest in the bearing 7 fixed on the branch 3 of the support frame of the assembly.
  • This shaft 34 is mounted to rotate freely inside the bearing 7, its rotation being facilitated by a ring 38.
  • the power supply to the geared motor group 14 is done by means of a power cable 13.
  • the flanges 2 and 3 which make it possible to receive the bearings 6 and 7 may also include support arms 25 which allow the installation of the separation panel 24, the latter separating the cover or flap 26 from the rest of the basin. Obviously this partition panel 24 can be replaced by a masonry wall or be completely omitted.
  • the frame which supports the roller comprises in its upper part means for receiving a grating 27 which covers the whole of the automatic cover when it is in the folded position. These receiving means are in particular constituted by the beams 4 and 5.
  • the dimensions and the positioning of the roller 1 are such that the cover disappears underwater when it is fully wound up and that the free end of the cover floats as soon as 'we start to unroll it. Thanks to the embodiment of the frame and the roller, it is possible to completely prefabricate the assembly, then to have, at the time of installation on site, only to fix the assembly to the side walls of the pool, in particular by fixing beam supports 8.
  • This motorized cover also includes an automatic end stop device.
  • This stop device consists of at least two photoelectric cells 11 and 12 which are fixed to the beam 4, these cells making it possible to visualize the position of the cover 26 using reflectors 20 and 21. These reflectors 20 and 21 are arranged on the visible face of the cover 26 in locations which make it possible to signal the start and the end of the winding or respectively of the unwinding of said cover 26.
  • the cover 26 itself, it can be of any known or unknown type.
  • the geared motor 14 is of the cycloidal reducer type.
  • the watertightness of the gearmotor is ensured by its very design.
