Definitions
- the invention relates to a method of covering a pelvis of the pool type with a projection such as a staircase or similar, at least on one of its borders main longitudinal by means of a bar cover transverse.
- the invention relates to a cover for placing implementing this process and comprising a main covering provided with transverse bars provided able to extend transversely above the basin while coming to rest at level of their ends on the longitudinal edges principal of the latter.
- the present invention relates, more particularly, to the field of means for covering basins, such as swimming pools, in particular made from a sheet of material flexible.
- covering devices still so-called winter covers, which can come in shape of an opaque net or blanket that we just stretch using peripheral bungee cords above the pelvis.
- the bubble blanket which rests usually on the surface of the water and which aims to promote the transfer of calories produced by energy solar, pool water.
- the covers with bars consisting of a sheet of flexible material, is provided at a distance regular, of support bars extending transversely above of the pelvis resting on the longitudinal edges of this last.
- these different types of covering devices are often rollable.
- one of these bars located at one end of the basin is provided with a nozzle under shape of an operating square on which a manual or motorized drive mechanism.
- this support bar By rotating this support bar, it progresses along the longitudinal edges of the basin from where results in the wrapping of the cover.
- this winding is carried out as regularly as possible, to prevent the cover from shifting, gradually, relative to the pelvis. Indeed, in such a case and at the very moment of deploying said cover again, it tends to go awry above the pelvis and very quickly the support bars no longer rest, at one of their ends, on the longitudinal edge of said basin so that the cover dips inside the latter.
- this section side cover sheet also tends to be damaged very quickly so that it is necessary to proceed with replacing it more frequently.
- the part forming the protrusion further creates a discontinuity at the longitudinal edges of the pelvis. Also, it is necessary to substitute, for the absence of border, a support profile on which are able to rest, at height from their corresponding end, the support bars of the main cover. This also allows progression continuous of these support bars along the longitudinal edges of the basin during winding and unfolding of said blanket.
- the invention also relates to a cover for placing work of this process
- a main cover provided provided cross bars capable of extending transversely above the basin while coming to rest, at level of their ends, on the longitudinal edges main of the latter, characterized by the fact that it also comprises a covering device provided with a support bar able to extend, in line with the said main longitudinal border, above the part constituting the projection, with this support bar being an overlapping sheet made of a flexible material the dimensions corresponding to those of said part and comprising, at the peripheral edge, means for placing under tension, of the strap type, Sandow or the like, means being still provided for immobilizing said support bar relative to at the main longitudinal border of the basin on which it rests at its extremities.
- the advantages obtained thanks to this invention consist in that that the covering of a part forming a protrusion lateral, at the level of a basin such as a swimming pool, is with great ease and, in any case, does not constitute no discomfort during recovery operations and discovery of the main part of this basin. Indeed, the recovery device is independent of the cover main. Consequently, this can be easily rolled up and unrolled, whether it is a bar cover, a solar blanket or a blanket wintering.
- the present invention seeks to solve a problem of covering pool 1 of the pool type.
- a basin 1 has a longitudinal 2 and transverse direction 3. It is moreover delimited by main longitudinal edges 4, 5 and transverse edges 6, 7.
- the present invention is in no way limited to such configuration, knowing, for example, that it concerns, also, ovoid, kidney-shaped or other basins.
- a main cover 8 in the form of a sheet in flexible material, of the tarpaulin, net or similar type. So a such main cover is deployed above basin 1, in its longitudinal direction 2. Note, in this regard, that it can be provided rollable or foldable accordion.
- Figure 1 illustrates a particular type of cover and says security, comprising a plurality of cross bars 9 extending equidistantly transversely above to basin 1 while coming to rest, at their ends, on the main longitudinal edges 4, 5 of this last.
- cover sheet made of a flexible material which we just ensure the power on, on the periphery, using straps, bungee cords or the like.
- the cover according to the invention comprises, in addition to the main cover 8, a covering device allowing the user to cover, independently, this part 10 of the pelvis 1. This corresponds, to a vision of things which is contrary to what was done, until then, and which consisted in equipping the main cover 8, at its lateral edge 11, with a piece of cover sheet with dimensions adjusted to said part 10 and which has just been extended, above the latter using bungee cords.
- the covering device according to the invention is distinguished by a support bar 12 capable of extending in the extension of the main longitudinal border 4, above of said part 10 constituting the lateral projection at the level of the pelvis 1. Furthermore, at this support bar 12 is made integral, by appropriate means 13, a sheet of covering in flexible material 14 whose dimensions correspond to those of part 10 to be covered.
- means 17 are provided for immobilizing said support bar 12 relative to the longitudinal edge main 4 on which it rests at the level of its ends 18, 19.
- the covering device brings together all the characteristics to meet the security criteria required by bar cover material.
- FIG. 3 An embodiment is illustrated in FIG. 3 simplified means 17 for immobilizing the support bar 12 on the main longitudinal border 4 of the pelvis 1.
- Such immobilization means 17 are, in fact, in the form of pegs 20 passing through apertures 21 machined in the ends 18, 19 of said support bar 12 and inserted into holes 22 drilled in said longitudinal border main 4, for example in the coping such as illustrated in figure 3.
- said bar support 12 is immobilized on the main longitudinal edge 4 of basin 1 by making it integral with the main cover 8 thanks to retractable connecting means which can be consider different modes of execution, for example in the form straps, bungee cords, snaps, hooks or the like.
- FIG. 4 illustrates a more particular embodiment as part of a bar cover 8. So some of the transverse bars 9 of the latter rest, at the height of their end 23, on the support bar 12. In fact, the bars transverse concerned can be provided, precisely to this end 23 and on their underside 24, a notch 25 in which the support bar 12 is housed so as to secure it on the longitudinal edge main 4 of basin 1, especially when placing under covering sheet tension 14.
- the energizing means 16 of this cover sheet 14 can, per se, provide the immobility of the support bar 12, in particular when they are properly distributed on the peripheral border 15.
- cover sheet 14 may be provided with a sheath to accommodate this support bar 12. It is also possible to equip this cover sheet 14 of a rod capable of being inserted into a groove 26 fitted at the level of the profile constituting the support bar 12. Such an embodiment is more particularly visible in Figures 3 and 4. Note, in this regard, that it is advantageous to design this profile constituting a bar support 12, symmetrically with respect to its median plane vertical 27, allowing its reversibility.
- the section of this profile is determined so that its inertia is sufficient to withstand a given load, for example the weight of a individual.
- said support bar 12 has, at its ends 18, 19, parts 28, 29 of thickness 30 as reduced as possible.
- these parts 28, 29 can be in the form end caps 31 fitted at the ends of the profile, especially aluminum, corresponding to the support bar 12.
- the present invention advantageously solves the problem which, usually, the overlapping of parts forming protuberances, laterally, at the level of pools of the swimming pool type.
- the covering of such a part no longer constitutes, as in the past, a discomfort for the winding, for example, of a cover with bars coming to cover the main part of this basin 1.
- the support bar 12 can advantageously constitute means for winding the covering sheet 14. It is therefore no longer necessary, in this case, to fold this sheet overlap 14 on the main cover 8. Which previously represented a real danger for the user.
- said cover sheet 14 it has been stated above that it conformed to the dimensions of part 10 of the pelvis 1. However, contrary to what has shown in Figure 2, this cover sheet 14 preferably retain a parallelepiped shape, which facilitates the design of the hem on the periphery.
- said cover sheet 14 being completely independent of the sheet of flexible material defining the cover main 8 it can be made of enough material resistant and thick avoiding to double it at the edge device intended to rest on the edge of the basin, by example, on the copings.
- a parallelepiped shape in makes design easier.

Description
L'invention concerne un procédé de recouvrement d'un bassin du type piscine comportant une excroissance tel qu'un escalier ou analogue, au niveau de l'une au moins de ses bordures longitudinales principales au moyen d'une couverture à barres transversales. L'invention concerne une couverture pour la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé et comportant une couveture principale munie de barres transversales prévues aptes à s'étendre transversalement au-dessus du bassin tout en venant reposer au niveau de leurs extrémités sur les bordures longitudinales principales de ce dernier.The invention relates to a method of covering a pelvis of the pool type with a projection such as a staircase or similar, at least on one of its borders main longitudinal by means of a bar cover transverse. The invention relates to a cover for placing implementing this process and comprising a main covering provided with transverse bars provided able to extend transversely above the basin while coming to rest at level of their ends on the longitudinal edges principal of the latter.
La présente invention concerne, plus particulièrement, le domaine des moyens de recouvrement de bassins, tels que des piscines, notamment constitués à base d'une feuille en matériau souple.The present invention relates, more particularly, to the field of means for covering basins, such as swimming pools, in particular made from a sheet of material flexible.
L'on connaít déjà plusieurs dispositifs de recouvrement de bassin du type piscine, sous forme d'une couverture en un matériau souple. De tels dispositifs de recouvrement se distinguent, soit par leurs propriétés spécifiques, soit en raison de caractéristiques plus techniques qui leur permettent de satisfaire à des critères particuliers notamment de sécurité.We already know several recovery devices pool type pool, in the form of a cover in one flexible material. Such recovery devices are distinguish either by their specific properties or by because of more technical features that allow them meet specific criteria including security.
Ainsi, il est connu des dispositifs de recouvrement, encore dénommés couvertures d'hivernage, qui peuvent se présenter sous forme d'un filet ou d'une couverture opaque que l'on vient tendre à l'aide de sandows périphériques, au-dessus du bassin. Il est également connu la couverture à bulles qui repose habituellement sur la surface de l'eau et qui a pour but de favoriser le transfert des calories, produites par l'énergie solaire, à l'eau de la piscine.Thus, it is known covering devices, still so-called winter covers, which can come in shape of an opaque net or blanket that we just stretch using peripheral bungee cords above the pelvis. It is also known the bubble blanket which rests usually on the surface of the water and which aims to promote the transfer of calories produced by energy solar, pool water.
En outre, dans la catégorie des dispositifs de recouvrement de bassins qui sont en mesure de satisfaire à des critères de sécurité, l'on connaít, tout particulièrement, les couvertures à barres. Plus précisément, la couverture, constituée par une feuille en un matériau souple, est pourvue à distance régulière, de barres supports s'étendant transversalement au-dessus du bassin en reposant sur les bordures longitudinales de ce dernier.In addition, in the category of basins that are able to meet criteria for security, we know, especially, the covers with bars. More specifically, the cover, consisting of a sheet of flexible material, is provided at a distance regular, of support bars extending transversely above of the pelvis resting on the longitudinal edges of this last.
De manière à faciliter le bâchage et le débâchage d'une piscine, ces différents types de dispositifs de recouvrement sont, souvent, enroulables. Notamment dans les deux premiers cas de figure, l'on dispose, fréquemment, d'un rouleau monté en rotation, sur des supports, le cas échéant munis de moyens de roulement. Par conséquent, grâce à des moyens d'entraínement appropriés, la commande en rotation du rouleau permet d'obtenir l'enroulement progressif sur ce dernier, de la couverture.So as to facilitate the covering and uncovering of a swimming pool, these different types of covering devices are often rollable. Especially in the first two scenario, there is often a roller mounted in rotation, on supports, if necessary provided with means of rolling. Therefore, thanks to training means the rotation control of the roller allows the progressive winding on the latter, of the cover.
Dans le cadre d'une couverture à barres, l'une de ces barres située à une extrémité du bassin, est pourvue d'un embout sous forme d'un carré de manoeuvre sur lequel peut être enfilé un mécanisme d'entraínement à commande manuelle ou motorisée. Ainsi, en entraínant en rotation cette barre support, celle-ci progresse le long des bordures longitudinales du bassin d'où résulte l'enroulement de la couverture. L'on comprend, d'ores et déjà, que dans ce cas de figure, il est préférable que cet enroulement s'effectue de manière aussi régulière que possible, pour éviter que la couverture ne se décale, progressivement, par rapport au bassin. En effet, dans un tel cas de figure et au moment même de déployer, à nouveau ladite couverture, celle-ci a tendance à partir de travers au-dessus du bassin et très vite les barres supports ne reposent plus, à l'une de leurs extrémités, sur la bordure longitudinale dudit bassin de sorte que la couverture plonge à l'intérieur de ce dernier.In the context of a bar cover, one of these bars located at one end of the basin, is provided with a nozzle under shape of an operating square on which a manual or motorized drive mechanism. Thus, by rotating this support bar, it progresses along the longitudinal edges of the basin from where results in the wrapping of the cover. We understand, from now on and already, that in this case, it is preferable that this winding is carried out as regularly as possible, to prevent the cover from shifting, gradually, relative to the pelvis. Indeed, in such a case and at the very moment of deploying said cover again, it tends to go awry above the pelvis and very quickly the support bars no longer rest, at one of their ends, on the longitudinal edge of said basin so that the cover dips inside the latter.
Aussi, en cas d'enroulement irrégulier, il est nécessaire, fréquemment, lors du déroulement de la couverture, de réajuster, à plusieurs reprises, le positionnement de ladite couverture par rapport au bassin.Also, in case of irregular winding, it is necessary, frequently, during the coverage process, readjusting, several times, the positioning of said cover in relation to the basin.
Si, à présent, ce dernier comporte une excroissance latéralement, c'est-à-dire, suivant une direction sensiblement transversale à celle de l'axe longitudinal du bassin et donc de l'axe d'enroulement et de déroulement de la couverture, cela pose problème que de recouvrir ces parties correspondant, le plus fréquemment, à des escaliers ou analogues.If, now, the latter has a protrusion laterally, that is to say, in a direction substantially transverse to that of the longitudinal axis of the basin and therefore the axis of winding and unwinding of the cover, this is problematic to cover these corresponding parts, the more frequently, on stairs or the like.
Pour l'heure on se contente de fixer, latéralement, sur la couverture, un morceau de feuille en matériau souple, aux dimensions correspondant à celles de la partie définissant l'excroissance. Ainsi, en cours d'enroulement de la couverture, ce morceau de feuille de recouvrement latéral est rabattu au-dessus de la partie principale. Or, cette surépaisseur créée localement et latéralement au niveau de la couverture conduit, forcément, à un enroulement non régulier de cette dernière et des difficultés pour la repositionner à nouveau au-dessus du bassin lors de son déploiement.For the moment we are content to fix, laterally, on the cover, a piece of sheet of flexible material, dimensions corresponding to those of the defining part the outgrowth. So while the cover is being rolled up, this piece of side cover sheet is folded over of the main part. Now, this extra thickness created locally and laterally at the duct cover, necessarily, to an irregular winding of the latter and difficulty repositioning it again above the pelvis during its deployment.
De plus, l'on observera qu'il n'est pas toujours aisé de rabattre la feuille de recouvrement latéral au-dessus de la couverture, en prenant garde qu'elle ne forme de plis. Cette opération est en tous les cas dangereuse pour l'opérateur qui peut, à tout moment, tomber dans le bassin.In addition, it will be observed that it is not always easy to fold the side cover sheet over the cover, taking care that it does not form folds. This operation is in any case dangerous for the operator who can fall into the pool at any time.
Dans le cas particulier d'une couverture à barres, ce tronçon de feuille de recouvrement latéral a tendance, également, à s'abímer très rapidement de sorte qu'il convient de procéder à son remplacement de manière plus fréquente.In the particular case of a bar cover, this section side cover sheet also tends to be damaged very quickly so that it is necessary to proceed with replacing it more frequently.
La partie formant l'excroissance crée en outre, une discontinuité au niveau des bords longitudinaux du bassin. Aussi, il est nécessaire de substituer, à l'absence de bordure, un profilé support sur lequel sont à même de reposer, à hauteur de leur extrémité correspondante, les barres supports de la couverture principale. Cela permet, en outre, une progression continue de ces barres supports le long des bords longitudinaux du bassin en cours d'enroulement et de déroulement de ladite couverture.The part forming the protrusion further creates a discontinuity at the longitudinal edges of the pelvis. Also, it is necessary to substitute, for the absence of border, a support profile on which are able to rest, at height from their corresponding end, the support bars of the main cover. This also allows progression continuous of these support bars along the longitudinal edges of the basin during winding and unfolding of said blanket.
Aussi, l'on remarquera qu'il est nécessaire, dans tous les cas, de retirer et de reposer, systématiquement, ledit profilé support après chaque enroulement de la couverture et avant déploiement de cette dernière.Also, it will be noted that it is necessary, in all cases, to systematically remove and install said profile support after each winding of the cover and before deployment of the latter.
La présente invention se veut à même de répondre, de manière avantageuse, aux problèmes précités. Par conséquent, cette invention a pour but :
- d'éviter un enroulement et un déroulement irrégulier de la couverture principale d'un bassin même si celui-ci comporte une excroissance latérale qu'il convient de recouvrir également ;
- empêcher une détérioration accélérée du dispositif de recouvrement correspondant à la partie créant l'excroissance latérale au niveau du bassin ;
- faciliter la pose et la dépose de ce dispositif de recouvrement et rendre, dans tous les cas, ces opérations non dangereuses.
- avoid winding and uneven unwinding of the main cover of a pool even if it has a lateral protrusion that should also be covered;
- prevent accelerated deterioration of the covering device corresponding to the part creating the lateral protuberance at the level of the pelvis;
- facilitate the installation and removal of this covering device and make these operations non-dangerous in all cases.
A cet effet, l'invention concerne un procédé de recouvrement d'un bassin comportant une excroissance, tel qu'un escalier ou analogue, au niveau de l'une au moins de ses bordures longitudinales principales au moyen d'une couverture à barres transversales carctérisé en ce que :
- on étend, dans un premier temps, au-dessus de l'excroissance un dispositif de recouvrement comportant, d'une part, une barre support à même de s'étendre, dans le prolongement de ladite bordure longitudinale principale, au-dessus de la partie constituant l'excroissance et, d'autre part, une feuille de recouvrement en un matériau souple solidarisée à ladite barre support et aux dimensions correspondant à celle de ladite partie ;
- puis on vient déployer la couverture au-dessus dudit bassin, dans sa direction longitudinale, de manière que les barres transversales viennent reposer, au niveau de leurs extrémités, selon le cas, sur les bordures longitudinales principales de ce bassin ou sur la barre support.
- a covering device is firstly extended above the protrusion comprising, on the one hand, a support bar capable of extending, in the extension of said main longitudinal edge, above the part constituting the protrusion and, on the other hand, a cover sheet of a flexible material secured to said support bar and to the dimensions corresponding to that of said part;
- then the cover is deployed over said basin, in its longitudinal direction, so that the transverse bars come to rest, at their ends, as the case may be, on the main longitudinal edges of this basin or on the support bar.
L'invention concerne encore une couverture pour la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé comportant une couverture principale munie de barres transversales prévues aptes à s'étendre transversalement au-dessus du bassin tout en venant reposer, au niveau de leurs extrémités, sur les bordures longitudinales principales de ce dernier, caractérisée par le fait qu'elle comporte, encore, un dispositif de recouvrement muni d'une barre support à même de s'étendre, dans le prolongement de ladite bordure longitudinale principale, au-dessus de la partie constituant l'excroissance, à cette barre support étant solidarisée une feuille de recouvrement en un matériau souple aux dimensions correspondant à celles de ladite partie et comportant, en bordure périphérique, des moyens de mise sous tension, du type sangle, Sandow ou analogue, des moyens étant encore prévus pour immobiliser ladite barre support par rapport à la bordure longitudinale principale du bassin sur laquelle elle repose au niveau de ses extrémités.The invention also relates to a cover for placing work of this process comprising a main cover provided provided cross bars capable of extending transversely above the basin while coming to rest, at level of their ends, on the longitudinal edges main of the latter, characterized by the fact that it also comprises a covering device provided with a support bar able to extend, in line with the said main longitudinal border, above the part constituting the projection, with this support bar being an overlapping sheet made of a flexible material the dimensions corresponding to those of said part and comprising, at the peripheral edge, means for placing under tension, of the strap type, Sandow or the like, means being still provided for immobilizing said support bar relative to at the main longitudinal border of the basin on which it rests at its extremities.
Les avantages obtenus grâce à cette invention consistent en ce que le recouvrement d'une partie formant une excroissance latérale, au niveau d'un bassin tel qu'une piscine, se fait avec une grande aisance et, dans tous les cas, ne constitue aucune gêne lors des opérations de recouvrement et de découvrement de la partie principale de ce bassin. En effet, le dispositif de recouvrement est indépendant de la couverture principale. En conséquence, celle-ci peut être aisément enroulée et déroulée, qu'il s'agisse d'une couverture à barre, d'une couverture solaire ou encore d'une couverture d'hivernage.The advantages obtained thanks to this invention consist in that that the covering of a part forming a protrusion lateral, at the level of a basin such as a swimming pool, is with great ease and, in any case, does not constitute no discomfort during recovery operations and discovery of the main part of this basin. Indeed, the recovery device is independent of the cover main. Consequently, this can be easily rolled up and unrolled, whether it is a bar cover, a solar blanket or a blanket wintering.
L'invention est exposée ci-après plus en détail à l'aide d'un dessin représentant seulement des modes d'exécution.
- la figure 1 est une vue schématisée et en perspective d'un bassin, du type piscine, recouvert par une couverture principale à barres, tandis que la partie formant une excroissance latérale est, elle, recouverte au moyen d'un dispositif de recouvrement complétant la couverture conforme à l'invention ;
- la figure 2 est une vue schématisée et en perspective d'un tel dispositif de recouvrement ;
- la figure 3 est une vue en coupe de ce dispositif de recouvrement;
- la figure 4 illustre, selon un autre mode d'exécution, des moyens pour immobiliser la barre support du dispositif de recouvrement par rapport aux bordures principales du bassin, tout particulièrement lorsque l'on vient mettre sous tension la feuille de recouvrement correspondant à ce dispositif.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a pool, of the swimming pool type, covered by a main bar cover, while the part forming a lateral protuberance is covered by means of a covering device completing the cover according to the invention;
- Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of such a covering device;
- Figure 3 is a sectional view of this covering device;
- FIG. 4 illustrates, according to another embodiment, means for immobilizing the support bar of the covering device with respect to the main edges of the basin, very particularly when the covering sheet corresponding to this device is tensioned .
Tel que visible dans la figure 1, la présente invention
s'attache à résoudre un problème de recouvrement de bassin 1 du
type piscine.
En fait, un tel bassin 1 comporte une direction longitudinale 2
et transversale 3. Il est par ailleurs délimité par des
bordures longitudinales principales 4, 5 et des bordures
transversales 6, 7.As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention seeks to solve a problem of covering pool 1 of the pool type.
In fact, such a basin 1 has a longitudinal 2 and transverse direction 3. It is moreover delimited by main
L'on observera, à ce propos, que si le bassin 1, représenté
dans la figure 1 comporte une forme générale rectangulaire, la
présente invention n'est nullement limitée à une telle
configuration, sachant, par exemple, qu'elle concerne,
également, des bassins ovoïdes, en forme de haricots ou autres.
Quoi qu'il en soit, il est fréquent de recouvrir ces bassins au
moyen d'une couverture principale 8 sous forme d'une feuille en
matériau souple, du type bâche, filet ou analogue. Ainsi une
telle couverture principale est déployée au-dessus du bassin 1,
dans sa direction longitudinale 2. A noter, à ce propos,
qu'elle peut être prévue enroulable ou repliable en accordéon. It will be observed, in this regard, that if the basin 1, represented
in Figure 1 has a generally rectangular shape, the
present invention is in no way limited to such
configuration, knowing, for example, that it concerns,
also, ovoid, kidney-shaped or other basins.
Anyway, it is common to cover these basins with
by means of a
L'on indiquera, à titre d'exemple, qu'il existe des couvertures
8 dites d'hivernage se présentant, fréquemment, sous forme d'un
filet ou d'une couverture opaque que l'on vient tendre, à
l'aide de sandows, en périphérie du bassin 1. Par ailleurs,
l'on connaít des couvertures solaires, dites à bulles, qui,
fréquemment, reposent sur l'eau, sachant qu'il existe également
des couvertures solaires à même d'être tendues au-dessus du
bassin et ayant pour fonction d'assurer un coussin d'air chaud
plus important limitant les déperdissions calorifiques la nuit.It will be indicated, by way of example, that there are
La figure 1 illustre un type de couverture particulier et dit
de sécurité, comportant une pluralité de barres transversales 9
s'étendant, de manière équidistante, transversalement au-dessus
au bassin 1 tout en venant reposer, au niveau de leurs
extrémités, sur les bordures longitudinales principales 4, 5 de
ce dernier. A ces barres transversales 9 est rendue solidaire
la feuille de recouvrement constituée en un matériau souple
dont on vient assurer la mise sous tension, en périphérie, à
l'aide de sangles, sandows ou analogues.Figure 1 illustrates a particular type of cover and says
security, comprising a plurality of
Se pose dans de telles conditions, le problème du recouvrement
de parties 10 de ce bassin 1 formant une excroissance latérale,
c'est-à-dire s'étendant dans une direction sensiblement
transversale 3. Ainsi, de telles parties 10, formant
excroissance, peuvent correspondre, soit à des escaliers qui là
encore peuvent avoir emprunté différentes formes tel
qu'illustré dans les figures 1 et 2, soit à un bassin de
profondeur réduite ou autre.
Ainsi la couverture selon l'invention, comporte en complément de la couverture principale 8, un dispositif de recouvrement
permettant à l'usager de recouvrir, indépendamment, cette
partie 10 du bassin 1. Ceci correspond, à une vision des
choses qui est contraire de ce qui se faisait, jusqu'alors, et
qui consistait à équiper la couverture principale 8, au niveau
de sa bordure latérale 11, d'un morceau de feuille de
recouvrement aux dimensions ajustées à ladite partie 10 et que
l'on vient étendre, au-dessus de cette dernière à l'aide de
sandows.Arises under such conditions, the problem of covering
Thus the cover according to the invention comprises, in addition to the
Les inconvénients de cette solution ont été largement exposés dans la partie introductive de cette description.The disadvantages of this solution have been widely exposed in the introductory part of this description.
En fait, le dispositif de recouvrement selon l'invention se
distingue par une barre support 12 à même de s'étendre dans le
prolongement de la bordure longitudinale principale 4, au-dessus
de ladite partie 10 constituant l'excroissance latérale
au niveau du bassin 1. En outre, à cette barre support 12 est
rendue solidaire, par des moyens 13 appropriés, une feuille de
recouvrement en matériau souple 14 dont les dimensions
correspondent à celles de la partie 10 à recouvrir. En bordure
périphérique 15, hormis dans la partie où se situe la barre
support 12, cette feuille de recouvrement 14 comporte en outre,
des moyens 16 permettant de les mettre sous tension, tels que
des sangles, sandows ou analogues.In fact, the covering device according to the invention is
distinguished by a
Finalement, il est prévu des moyens 17 pour immobiliser ladite
barre support 12 par rapport à la bordure longitudinale
principale 4 sur laquelle elle repose au niveau de ses
extrémités 18, 19.Finally, means 17 are provided for immobilizing said
En fait, en immobilisant, ainsi, la barre support 12 et en
assurant une parfaitement mise sous tension de la feuille de
recouvrement 14, le dispositif de recouvrement, selon
l'invention, regroupe toutes les caractéristiques lui
permettant de répondre aux critères de sécurité requis en
matière de couverture à barres.In fact, thus immobilizing the
A noter, à ce propos, que grâce à la continuité créée par la
barre support 12 au niveau de la bordure longitudinale
principale 4, interrompue en raison de l'excroissance formée
par la partie 10, il est aisé de déployer ou d'enrouler la
couverture principale 8 au-dessus du bassin 1, dans sa
direction longitudinale 2. Tout particulièrement, dans le cadre
d'une couverture à barres, lesdites barres transversales 9 sont
à même d'évoluer, puis de reposer sur cette barre support 12.Note, in this regard, that thanks to the continuity created by the
Il est illustré, dans la figure 3, un mode de réalisation
simplifié des moyens 17 pour immobiliser la barre support 12
sur la bordure longitudinale principale 4 du bassin 1. De tels
moyens d'immobilisation 17 se présentent, en effet, sous forme
de pitons 20 traversant des ouvertures 21 usinées dans les
extrémités 18, 19 de ladite barre support 12 et insérées dans
des trous 22 percés dans ladite bordure longitudinale
principale 4, par exemple dans les margelles telles
qu'illustrées dans la figure 3.An embodiment is illustrated in FIG. 3
simplified means 17 for immobilizing the
L'on peut encore imaginer équiper ces extrémités 18, 19 de la
barre support 12 de sangles ou autres dispositifs d'attache à
même de constituer lesdits moyens d'immobilisation 17.One can still imagine equipping these
En outre, selon un autre mode de réalisation, ladite barre
support 12 est immobilisée sur le bord longitudinal principal 4
du bassin 1 en la rendant solidaire de la couverture principale
8 grâce à des moyens de liaison escamotables dont on pourra
envisager différents modes d'exécution, par exemple sous forme
de sangles, sandows, boutons pression, crochets ou analogues.In addition, according to another embodiment, said
La figure 4 illustre un mode de réalisation plus particulier
dans le cadre d'une couverture à barres 8. Ainsi, certaines des
barres transversales 9 de cette dernière reposent, à hauteur de
leur extrémité 23, sur la barre support 12. En fait, les barres
transversales concernées peuvent être pourvues, précisément à
cette extrémité 23 et sur leur dessous 24, d'une échancrure 25
dans laquelle vient se loger la barre support 12 de manière à
en assurer l'immobilisation sur la bordure longitudinale
principale 4 du bassin 1, notamment lors de la mise sous
tension de la feuille de recouvrement 14.FIG. 4 illustrates a more particular embodiment
as part of a
En fin de compte, les moyens de mise sous tension 16 de cette
feuille de recouvrement 14 peuvent, en soi, assurer
l'immobilité de la barre support 12, tout particulièrement
lorsqu'ils sont convenablement répartis en bordure périphérique
15.Ultimately, the energizing means 16 of this
La liaison entre la feuille de recouvrement 14 et la barre
support 12 peut être envisagée de différentes manières. Ainsi,
ladite feuille de recouvrement 14 peut être munie d'un fourreau
permettant d'accueillir cette barre support 12. Il est
également envisageable d'équiper cette feuille de recouvrement
14 d'un jonc susceptible d'être inséré dans une gorge 26
aménagée au niveau du profilé constituant la barre support 12.
Un tel mode de réalisation est plus particulièrement visible
dans les figures 3 et 4. On notera, à ce propos, qu'il est
avantageux de concevoir ce profilé constituant une barre
support 12, de manière symétrique par rapport à son plan médian
vertical 27, autorisant sa réversibilité.The connection between the
En outre, l'on observera que la section de ce profilé est
déterminée de sorte que son inertie soit suffisante pour
résister à une charge donnée, par exemple au poids d'un
individu. Toutefois, pour éviter que la barre support 12 ne
crée, pour autant, une surépaisseur trop importante au niveau
de la bordure longitudinale principale 4 du bassin 1, ladite
barre support 12 comporte, au niveau de ses extrémités 18, 19,
des parties 28, 29 d'épaisseur 30 aussi réduites que possible.
A noter que, ces parties 28, 29 peuvent se présenter sous forme
d'embouts 31 emmanchés au niveau des extrémités du profilé,
notamment en aluminium, correspondant à la barre support 12. Au
cas où le profilé est pourvu de gorges 26, celles-ci se
prolongent, préférentiellement, au niveau des embouts 31. In addition, it will be observed that the section of this profile is
determined so that its inertia is sufficient to
withstand a given load, for example the weight of a
individual. However, to prevent the
Tel que cela ressort de la description qui précède, la présente
invention résout, de manière avantageuse, le problème que pose,
usuellement, le recouvrement de parties formant excroissance,
latéralement, au niveau de bassins du type piscines. Ainsi, le
recouvrement d'une telle partie ne constitue plus, comme dans
le passé, une gêne pour l'enroulement, par exemple, d'une
couverture à barres venant recouvrir la partie principale de ce
bassin 1.
Il est à remarquer à ce propos que la barre support 12 peut
constituer, avantageusement, des moyens d'enroulement, de la
feuille de recouvrement 14. Il n'est donc plus nécessaire, dans
ce cas d'espèce, de rabattre cette feuille de recouvrement 14
sur la couverture principale 8. Ce qui représentait jusqu'alors
un réel danger pour l'usager.As emerges from the above description, the present invention advantageously solves the problem which, usually, the overlapping of parts forming protuberances, laterally, at the level of pools of the swimming pool type. Thus, the covering of such a part no longer constitutes, as in the past, a discomfort for the winding, for example, of a cover with bars coming to cover the main part of this basin 1.
It should be noted in this connection that the
En ce qui concerne ladite feuille de recouvrement 14, il a été
précisé, plus haut, qu'elle était conformée aux dimensions de
la partie 10 du bassin 1. Toutefois, contrairement à ce qui a
été représenté en figure 2, cette feuille de recouvrement 14
conservera, préférentiellement, une forme parallélépipédique ce
qui facilite la conception de l'ourlet en périphérie. En outre,
ladite feuille de recouvrement 14 étant totalement indépendante
de la feuille en matériau souple définissant la couverture
principale 8 elle peut être conçue en un matériau suffisamment
résistant et épais évitant de la doubler au niveau de son bord
périphérique destiné à reposer sur la bordure du bassin, par
exemple, sur les margelles. Quoi qu'il en soit, si une telle
doublure est nécessaire, une forme parallélépipédique en
facilite la conception.With regard to said
