Definitions

  • the invention relates to a set of profiles allowing adjustment to the millimeter near an overflow level by a precise mechanical adjustment such as for example a bolt, adaptable to swimming pools of all shapes and all types, guaranteeing a perfect adjustment.
  • Pollution in swimming pools can be divided into two categories: heavy elements (gravel, sand ...) which fall at the bottom of the basin and light elements (leaves, grass, pollen, insects ...) which float due to their low density or because they are coated with grease (sunscreen, automobile exhaust polluting the water line).
  • Surface pollution is by far the most important and the most annoying for bathers.
  • the classic filtration system water intake by skimmer surface skimmers and the bottom
  • the floating light elements not being directed directly to the skimmer surface skimmer units, are positioned in dead zones and swirl, changing density in prolonged contact with the liquid element, and end up sink, making the pool dirty. Pollution by particles coated with grease which tend to remain on the surface of the basin will be scarcely destroyed except by disinfection.
  • the interior sealing coating being produced by a plastic envelope coming to be pressed against the interior walls of the basin, the assembly of the various elements of the basic structure is done by bolting.
  • the walls of these aluminum pools consist of a succession of vertical profiles fitted into each other by a male and female dovetail assembly positioned respectively at each of their ends, cooperating with each other while keeping a clearance, which allows the pool to take all the desired curves. All of the vertical profiles fitted together forming the walls of the aluminum pools are held at its base and at its upper end by a low beam and a high beam respectively, fixed together by bolted stiffeners.
  • the high and low beams are regularly cut to the width of the profiles vertical forming the wall, except on the front thickness placed inside the pool which allows them to be bent very easily and to be able to take all the forms possible.
  • the overflow can be achieved by adding an overflow trough above the high beam of the structure, but this trough can only be placed on straight parts.
  • the present invention therefore seeks to overcome these drawbacks by offering swimming pools of all types and all forms to be improved by a set of profiles adjusting in a simple, quick, precise and reliable manner, a mechanically adjustable overflow level, for example with a bolt, without the need to drain the water from the pool in whole or in part and without removing the waterproofing covering the level of the overflow.
  • the adjustment is easy and precise because the adjustment is made in relation to the perfect level of the water contained in the pool.
  • the adjustment of the overflow with mechanical precision adjustment adaptable to all types of swimming pools, consists of a set of profiles, composed for example of several profiles such as: an overflow adjustment profile (mobile), a beam basic (fixed), an adaptation profile (for each type of pool).
  • the adapter profile is fixed to the pool wall in a solid and durable way.
  • the sealing of the set of profiles forming the adjustment of the overflow is ensured by the waterproof plastic membrane of the swimming pool itself, if it is equipped with it, or else by a flexible coating such as, for example, a PVC film. starting from the base of the adaptation profile fixed on the high end of the wall of the pool and coming to cover the level of the overflow by clinging to the adjustment profile of the overflow (mobile) thanks to a hanging bead, or by a means cooperating with one of the various reservations for all types of hanging bead, included for this purpose in the overflow adjustment profile.
  • the pool water will therefore overflow over the overflow level located at the top of the profile set and this will make it easier and more precise to adjust the level of the overflow to the nearest millimeter. serving the perfect level of water, by simply screwing or unscrewing as necessary the nut of the adjustment bolt very accessible from outside the profile set, and this, without having touched the waterproof coating retaining the in the pool.
  • the owner of a swimming pool of all types and all forms equipped with the set of profiles according to the invention will have the advantage of being able to adjust in the simplest way, the level of overflow, using the level of l 'water, by screwing and unscrewing the adjusting nut; and this can be done from installation, up to several decades later.
  • the precision of the adjustment makes it possible to reduce the overflowing blade of water to its maximum, which makes it possible to keep a low flow pump, for example during the renovation of a swimming pool.
  • the invention authorizes the industrial manufacture of a set of profiles adaptable to swimming pools of all shapes and all types, allowing the perfect adjustment of the level of overflow thanks to a precise mechanical adjustment, in order to carry out the construction, as well as the renovation of swimming pools.
  • the adjustment of the overflow according to the invention reduces the implementation time compared to the traditional overflow.
  • the aluminum structure for example does not need to be installed to the nearest millimeter, because the leveling will be adjusted with the water in the basin.
  • the ease of adjusting the overflow by screwing the adjusting bolts ensures absolute perfection.
  • the time saving, caused by the basic leveling of the structure, followed by the precise adjustment made according to the water level of the basin, makes it an easy and fast concept.
  • the adjustment of the overflow according to the invention avoids the need for ten-year insurance by compensating for ground movements. If the level of the traditional overflow were to fall even just 2 mm, for reasons of poor earthworks or insufficient foundations, the flow of water would be disrupted, causing filtration problems and ruining the aesthetic sought. Such damage would engage the responsibility of the project manager.
  • the adjustable overflow makes it possible to compensate for level deviations up to, for example, 6 cm and the adjustment can be carried out immediately after the completion of the works, as after more than 10 years. The efficiency of the large catch-up margin as well as the longevity of the adjustment possibilities make it a comfortable and reassuring concept.
  • the adjustment of the overflow according to the invention allows all types of swimming pools of all shapes to get a new look.
  • a classic filtration pool with skimmer surface skimmers it multiplies the performance of surface water collection in proportion to its dimensions.
  • the pool will therefore be cleaner, allowing the owner to replace the time-consuming cleaning time, considerably reduced, with leisure activities.
  • the base beam (fixed) consists of only one profile directly adaptable to several types of swimming pool, while in another embodiment, the base beam (fixed) comprises a profile base, and another profile adapted to each type of pool.
  • the upper part of the adjustment profile of the overflow is of substantially cylindrical section, not being able to deteriorate the sealing coating which will cover it over a minimum of 90 degrees and a maximum of 290 degrees.
  • the adjustment profile of the overflow can be adjustable without dismantling the waterproof envelope of the swimming pool, for example by means of an accessible fastening system.
