Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine de la distribution de fluides, en particulier dans les installations sanitaires, et notamment les robinets mélangeurs ou mitigeurs, et a pour objet un dispositif de raccordement réglable pour de tels robinets ou mitigeurs.The present invention relates to the field of distribution of fluids, in particular in sanitary installations, and in particular mixer taps or mixer taps, and relates to an adjustable connection device for such taps or mixer taps.

Il existe actuellement, pour la distribution, notamment d'eau chaude sanitaire, des robinets mélangeurs ou mitigeurs pour douche, bain-douche et cuisine présentant deux orifices ou raccords de fixation aux canalisations d'eau chaude et d'eau froide.Currently, for the distribution, in particular of domestic hot water, mixer taps or mixer taps for showers, bath-showers and kitchens with two orifices or fittings for fixing to the hot and cold water pipes.

Ces orifices présentent des entr'axes de fixation bien définis. Il résulte de ce mode de réalisation qu'une adaptation à des entr'axes différents n'est pas possible. Une normalisation récente prévoit une valeur unique pour les entr'axes des nouveaux dispositifs de distribution mis sur le marché. Cependant, les mélangeurs ou mitigeurs de type antérieur restent disponibles et, dans le cas de rénovation, il se pose souvent un problème d'adaptation de l'entr'axe du nouveau matériel à l'entr'axe de raccordement disponible. Il s'ensuit qu'il est souvent nécessaire, pour opérer un remplacement, d'effectuer des travaux préalables de maçonnerie et de plomberie, lorsqu'il n'est pas possible de se procurer un mélangeur ou mitigeur présentant la dimension d'entr'axe précise nécessaire.These orifices have well-defined fixing axes. It follows from this embodiment that an adaptation to different axes is not possible. Recent standardization provides a single value for the centers of the new distribution devices placed on the market. However, mixers or mixers of the previous type remain available and, in the case of renovation, there often arises a problem of adaptation of the center distance of the new material to the available connection center distance. It follows that it is often necessary, in order to make a replacement, to carry out preliminary masonry and plumbing work, when it is not possible to obtain a mixer or mixer having the entry dimension. precise axis required.

En conséquence, pour répondre à la demande, les distributeurs et les installateurs sont obligés de prévoir en stock toutes les dimensions nécessaires, ce qui entraîne une immobilisation financière lourde.Consequently, to meet demand, distributors and installers are obliged to provide all the necessary dimensions in stock, which results in heavy financial immobilization.

En outre, pour éviter une rupture de stock dans certaines dimensions, lesdits distributeurs et installateurs doivent assurer une gestion rigoureuse desdits stocks, ce qui entraîne également une multiplication des fournisseurs pour assurer la gamme nécessaire.In addition, to avoid a stock shortage in certain dimensions, said distributors and installers must ensure rigorous management of said stocks, which also leads to a multiplication of suppliers to ensure the necessary range.

De plus, la recherche de la bonne dimension entraîne des pertes de temps importantes et, afin d'éviter le risque d'erreur dimensionnelle, le professionnel, le particulier et le distributeur doivent disposer de connaissances spécifiques affirmées dans le domaine concerné.In addition, the search for the right size results in significant loss of time and, in order to avoid the risk of dimensional error, the professional, the individual and the distributor must have specific knowledge asserted in the field concerned.

Enfin, la multiplicité des dimensions entraîne un risque d'erreur, d'une part, lors de la commande et, d'autre part, lors de la préparation de la commande.Finally, the multiplicity of dimensions leads to a risk of error, on the one hand, when ordering and, on the other hand, during the preparation of the order.

On connaît par US-A-1 762 619 des raccords servant à la distribution d'eau chaude et d'eau froide dans des immeubles, dont les lavabos sont disposés symétriquement de part et d'autre d'une cloison. Ces raccords réalisent en fait une dérivation des alimentations afin que la distribution d'eau chaude soit toujours et dans tous les cas effectuée sur la partie gauche du lavabo et celle d'eau froide sur la partie droite. Ces raccords ne permettent pas une adaptation simple d'un robinet mélangeur ou mitigeur à des entr'axes de raccordement variables.US-A-1 762 619 discloses connections used for the distribution of hot and cold water in buildings, the sinks of which are arranged symmetrically on either side of a partition. These connections actually make a bypass of the power supplies so that the distribution of hot water is always and in all cases carried out on the left side of the sink and that of cold water on the right side. These connections do not allow a simple adaptation of a mixing valve or mixing valve to variable connection centers.

Par ailleurs, US-A-4 672 994 cf. le préambule de la revendication 1 décrit une bague en matière synthétique souple ou en caoutchouc destinée à assurer le maintien, ainsi que la bonne tenue dans le mur des tubes pour les arrivées d'eau sanitaire et représente des raccords doubles excentrés. Toutefois, ces raccords sont des raccords moulés encombrants, dans lesquels les deux parties de raccordement sont reliées entre elles par un corps intermédiaire ménageant un canal interne transversal de liaison et présentant un encombrement important incompatible avec un encombrement réduit. En outre, ce corps intermédiaire étant moulé, il est d'un prix de revient relativement important.In addition, US-A-4,672,994 cf. the preamble of claim 1 describes a ring of flexible synthetic material or rubber intended to ensure the maintenance, as well as the good behavior in the wall of the tubes for the inflows of sanitary water and represents double eccentric fittings. However, these connections are bulky molded connections, in which the two connection parts are interconnected by an intermediate body providing an internal transverse connecting channel and having a large size incompatible with a reduced size. In addition, this intermediate body being molded, it has a relatively high cost price.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.

Elle a, en effet, pour objet un dispositif de raccordement réglable, intégré au corps d'un robinet mélangeur ou mitigeur et présentant, pour chaque côté d'alimentation, à savoir en eau froide et en eau chaude, au moins deux orifices de raccordement, dont l'un est muni d'un raccord double et dont l'autre est muni d'un bouchon.It has, in fact, for its object an adjustable connection device, integrated into the body of a mixing or mixing valve and having, for each supply side, namely in cold water and in hot water, at least two connection orifices , one of which has a double connector and the other of which has a plug.

L'invention sera mieux comprise, grâce à la description ci-après, qui se rapporte à un mode de réalisation préféré, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et expliqué avec référence au dessin schématique annexé, dont la figure unique est une vue en élévation et en coupe d'un corps de robinet mélangeur ou mitigeur pourvu du dispositif conforme à l'invention.The invention will be better understood from the description below, which relates to a preferred embodiment, given by way of nonlimiting example, and explained with reference to the attached schematic drawing, the single figure of which is a view. in elevation and in section of a mixer tap body or mixer provided with the device according to the invention.

Le dessin annexé représente un corps de robinet mélangeur ou mitigeur 1 muni d'un dispositif de raccordement intégré et réglable présentant, pour chaque côté d'alimentation, à savoir en eau froide et en eau chaude, au moins deux orifices 2 de raccordement, dont l'un est muni d'un raccord double 3 et dont l'autre est muni d'un bouchon 4.The appended drawing represents a mixer tap or mixer tap body 1 provided with an integrated and adjustable connection device having, for each supply side, namely cold water and hot water, at least two connection orifices 2, of which one is fitted with a double connector 3 and the other is fitted with a plug 4.

La prévision d'au moins deux orifices 2 pour chaque côté d'alimentation permet une adaptation à au moins trois entr'axes différents, les orifices 2 de chaque côté pouvant invariablement être munis d'un raccord 3 ou d'un bouchon 4.The provision of at least two orifices 2 for each supply side allows adaptation to at least three different axes, the orifices 2 on each side can invariably be provided with a connector 3 or a plug 4.

Les bouchons 4 prévus pour la fermeture des orifices 2 non utilisés se présentent, de préférence, sous forme de bouchons mâles munis chacun d'un joint torique 5 assurant l'étanchéité.The plugs 4 provided for closing the unused orifices 2 are preferably in the form of male plugs each provided with an O-ring 5 ensuring sealing.

Les raccords 3 présentent chacun, d'une part, une première partie mâle de raccordement 6 destinée à coopérer par vissage avec un orifice 2 et munie d'un joint d'étanchéité annulaire 7 et, d'autre part, une deuxième partie de raccordement 8, mâle ou femelle, destinée à coopérer avec un moyen correspondant équipant la conduite d'eau chaude ou d'eau froide.The connections 3 each have, on the one hand, a first male connection part 6 intended to cooperate by screwing with an orifice 2 and provided with an annular seal 7 and, on the other hand, a second connection part 8, male or female, intended to cooperate with a corresponding means equipping the hot water or cold water pipe.

Les première et deuxième parties de raccordement 6 et 8 sont, d'une part, reliées entre elles par l'intermédiaire d'une partie épaulée 9 de faible épaisseur et, d'autre part, munies chacune d'un perçage, lesdits perçages étant reliés entre eux par l'intermédiaire d'un canal oblique 10. Du fait de cette constitution, les raccords 3 peuvent être réalisés simplement et à bas prix par décolletage et présentent un encombrement très faible.The first and second connection parts 6 and 8 are, on the one hand, connected to each other by means of a shoulder part 9 of small thickness and, on the other hand, each provided with a hole, said holes being interconnected via an oblique channel 10. Because of this constitution, the fittings 3 can be made simply and at low cost by turning and have a very small footprint.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, les première et deuxième parties de raccordement 6 et 8 sont montées, de préférence, de manière excentrée sur la partie épaulée 9. Ainsi, il est possible, lors du montage des raccords 3 sur le corps 1, de faire varier l'entr'axe entre deux orifices 2 quelconques, entre des valeurs comprises entre ledit entr'axe desdits orifices 2 diminué du double de l'excentricité entre les parties 6 et 8 de chaque raccord 3 et l'entr'axe desdits orifices 2 augmenté du double de ladite excentricité entre les parties 6 et 8. Bien entendu, toutes les valeurs intermédiaires sont possibles par rotation des raccords 3.According to a characteristic of the invention, the first and second connection parts 6 and 8 are preferably mounted eccentrically on the shoulder part 9. Thus, it is possible, during the mounting of the fittings 3 on the body 1, to vary the spacing between any two orifices 2, between values between said spacing of said holes 2 minus twice the eccentricity between parts 6 and 8 of each fitting 3 and the spacing of said orifices 2 increased by twice of said eccentricity between parts 6 and 8. Of course, all the intermediate values are possible by rotation of the fittings 3.

De préférence, les raccords 3 présentent une excentricité entre les parties 6 et 8 de 5 mm ou de 10 mm et les orifices 2 prévus dans le corps du mélangeur ou mitigeur 1 sont avantageusement prévus à des entr'axes respectifs de 70 mm et de 100 mm.Preferably, the connections 3 have an eccentricity between the parts 6 and 8 of 5 mm or 10 mm and the orifices 2 provided in the body of the mixer or mixer 1 are advantageously provided at respective axes of 70 mm and 100 mm.

Ainsi, dans les cas extrêmes, il est possible de faire varier les entr'axes, pour des raccords 3 à excentricité de 10 mm, entre 50 mm et 120 mm, les bouchons 4 équipant simplement les orifices 2 non utilisés.Thus, in extreme cases, it is possible to vary the spacings, for fittings 3 with eccentricity of 10 mm, between 50 mm and 120 mm, the plugs 4 simply equipping the orifices 2 which are not used.

Le dispositif de raccordement conforme à l'invention permet donc une adaptation simple et rapide d'un mélangeur ou mitigeur, pour le raccordement, sur des conduites existantes, notamment en rénovation, ce dispositif étant directement intégré dans le corps du robinet.The connection device according to the invention therefore allows a simple and rapid adaptation of a mixer or mixer, for connection, on existing pipes, especially in renovation, this device being directly integrated into the valve body.

Le montage d'un tel mélangeur ou mitigeur est particulièrement facile, du fait que tous les éléments de raccordement préexistants peuvent être réutilisés, l'adaptation à l'entr'axe désiré pouvant être réalisée lors du montage.The assembly of such a mixer or mixer is particularly easy, since all the preexisting connection elements can be reused, the adaptation to the desired spacing being possible during assembly.

En outre, dans le cas d'un montage du corps de mélangeur ou mitigeur 1 en applique, la partie épaulée 9 des raccords 3 peut être utilisée pour la fixation dudit corps sur son support.In addition, in the case of mounting of the mixer body or mixer 1 on the surface, the shoulder part 9 of the fittings 3 can be used for fixing said body to its support.

De plus, du fait de la possibilité de couvrir un large éventail d'entr'axes, l'invention permet de limiter le nombre de mélangeurs ou mitigeurs en stock chez les fabricants, les distributeurs et les installateurs.In addition, due to the possibility of covering a wide range of axes, the invention makes it possible to limit the number of mixers or mixers in stock with manufacturers, distributors and installers.

Le dispositif conforme à l'invention est applicable à tous types de mélangeurs ou de mitigeurs, quels que soient leurs constituants et leur utilisation.The device according to the invention is applicable to all types of mixers or mixers, whatever their constituents and their use.

Ce dispositif permet des gains de temps appréciables, tant en ce qui concerne le stockage et la distribution, notamment la gestion des stocks, qu'en ce qui concerne l'installation, la mise en oeuvre étant très simple et un seul modèle de mélangeur ou de mitigeur permettant, grâce à ce dispositif, de couvrir une large plage d'entr'axes possibles.This device allows appreciable time savings, both with regard to storage and distribution, in particular inventory management, and with regard to installation, the implementation being very simple and a single model of mixer or mixing valve allowing, thanks to this device, to cover a wide range of possible axes.

En outre, les erreurs à la commande sont évitées et le montage peut être effectué par une main d'oeuvre de faible qualification.In addition, errors when ordering are avoided and assembly can be carried out by low-skilled labor.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté au dessin annexé. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention comme défini dans les revendications annexées.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the accompanying drawing. Modifications remain possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without thereby departing from the scope of protection of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
