Elle réside en la réalisation d'une plate-forme rigide, cylindrique et de un ou plusieurs murs circulaires qui assurent le support de cette plate-forme par l'intermédiaire d'un ensemble de roues montées sur un support qui permet un léger effet de ressort.The present invention is to rotate an individual construction. It lies in the realization of a rigid, cylindrical platform and one or several circular walls which provide support for this platform by via a set of wheels mounted on a support which allows a slight spring effect.

Cette plate-forme a pour but d'y construire une maison, un pavillon, un bâtiment ou un chalet d'aspect et d'usage «traditionnel». La forme de cette construction est libre mais obligatoirement incluse sur la surface de la plate-forme. Pour un accès facile à l'habitation il est préférable de laisser un espace suffisant tout autour de l'habitation afin de pouvoir, quel que soit l'orientation de la construction en faire le tour pour accéder à l'entrée. Cette habitation est en principe est équipée de loggia, véranda ou de grandes surfaces vitrées et un espace terrasse peu être aménagé sur la plate-forme.The purpose of this platform is to build a house, a pavilion, a “traditional” looking building or chalet. The shape of this construction is free but necessarily included on the surface of the platform. For easy access to the house it is better to leave enough space all around the house in order to be able to, whatever the orientation of the construction go around to access the entrance. This house is in principle is equipped with loggia, veranda or large glazed areas and a terrace space can be arranged on the platform.

Pouvoir faire tourner cette construction permet d'orienter la «façade», la pièce de son choix : mettre la véranda, la terrasse au soleil l'hiver, à l'ombre l'été. Qui n'a pas cherché à profiter ou se protéger du soleil ?Being able to rotate this construction allows to orient the "facade", the room of his choice: put the veranda, the terrace in the winter sun, in the summer shade. Who has not sought to take advantage of or protect themselves from the sun?

According to the different techniques used, Figure 1 , with the cut of the floor (6), illustrates one of the possibilities of realization with the choice basement, garage.
  • The upper level of this platform is located over most of its circumference with a step difference in level from the level of the final terrain (8). Where the terrain allows (checking the level of the networks), a garage basement buried under the platform is comfortable and facilitates any maintenance operations on the various mechanisms.
  • The, the circular walls (1), or interior posts, are made with traditional building materials and rests on the foundations (2).
  • The platform is constructed from a metal frame or other materials. This framework is composed for the main elements of the structure of two circular beams (4) and a set of beams (5) which ensures the rigidity of the platform on which the cylindrical floor (6) is placed. The beams (5) allow the platform to extend beyond the exterior wall.
  • The set of wheels (3) is optional:
    • Fixed on the circular walls (1) and roll on the circular beam (4) of the platform frame.
    • Fixed to the framework of the platform and run on a raceway defined on the, the circular walls (1) and, or on interior support posts.
    • The assembly of each wheel (3) is composed of a support with a slight spring effect which makes it possible to ensure an almost constant pressure at the level of each wheel (3) and thus avoids deformation of the framework of the platform. linked to the flatness of the raceway or to the small possible deformations of the foundations (2).
    • In order to ensure the rotation of the platform, one or more wheels are directly motorized with an electric motor equipped with a device which makes it possible to ensure at least two rotational speeds in each direction.
      • A rapid positioning speed of the construction orientation.
      • A rotation speed equivalent to the solar rotation in order to follow a chosen exposure.

La rotation de la construction est complète. La rotation est possible en aller et retour.

  • La forme des roues et du chemin de roulement est étudiés pour maintenir une rotation centrée sur l'axe.
  • Les roues sont régulièrement reparties sur la circonférence du chemin de roulement. Leur nombre dépend de la charge à supporter. Une charge de cinq à huit tonnes est possible par roue.
  • L'alimentation et l'évacuation des divers réseaux sont effectués par un ensemble de mécanismes (7) positionnés sous la plate-forme et sur son axe de rotation ( 10). Ces mécanismes (7) sont composés de pièces fixes et de pièces mobiles fixées qui toument avec la plate-forme. Les différents réseaux, sont répartis sur des cylindres concentriques au niveau des pièces fixes et les pièces mobiles, l'étanchéité complète est assurée. L'alimentation électrique est réalisée par des contacts charbon situés autour des réseaux eaux.
  • Le contour extérieur du plancher (6) de la plate-forme déborde de l'extrémité des poutres (5) de l'ossature afin de mettre sous ce débord un dispositif (11) fixé dans le sol ou rattaché au mur extérieur, dispositif qui empêche les débris, feuilles, jouets de rentrer sous la plate-forme à l'extérieur des murs.
  • Dans le cas d'un sous-sol, garage :
    • Un joint (9) type balai fixé sur le mur circulaire extérieur (1) et en contact sur la poutre circulaire (4) assure l'étanchéité contre les courants d'air.
    • Un garde corps situé au dessus de l'entrée de garage et fixé au mur circulaire extérieur (1) assure la sécurité des personnes quel que soit la position de la plate-forme.
    • Un escalier (12) type VIS, situé autour du mécanisme (7) et suspendu à la plate-forme assure l'accès à l'habitation à partir du sous-sol. Afin d'assurer la sécurité des personnes pendant la rotation, la première marche est une couronne complète, maintenue par un ensemble de montants fixés à la plate-forme. Ces montants servent également à la fixation de l'ensemble des marches.
The construction rotation is complete. Rotation is possible back and forth.
  • The shape of the wheels and of the raceway is studied to maintain a rotation centered on the axis.
  • The wheels are regularly distributed around the circumference of the raceway. Their number depends on the load to bear. A load of five to eight tonnes is possible per wheel.
  • The various networks are supplied and discharged by a set of mechanisms (7) positioned under the platform and on its axis of rotation (10). These mechanisms (7) are composed of fixed parts and fixed moving parts which touch with the platform. The different networks are distributed on concentric cylinders at the level of the fixed parts and the moving parts, complete sealing is ensured. The electrical power is supplied by coal contacts located around the water networks.
  • The external contour of the floor (6) of the platform projects beyond the end of the beams (5) of the framework in order to put under this projection a device (11) fixed in the ground or attached to the exterior wall, device which prevents debris, leaves, toys from entering under the platform outside the walls.
  • In the case of a basement, garage:
    • A brush type seal (9) fixed on the outer circular wall (1) and in contact with the circular beam (4) seals against drafts.

L'ensemble des mécanismes ainsi que la conception globale de la plate-forme sont réalisés avec le souci majeur de répondre à tous les problèmes de sécurité des personnes lors de la rotation de la plate-forme. La forme circulaire de la plate-forme ainsi que sa position au niveau du sol permettent pour l'insertion de l'habitation dans le site de conserver un aspect traditionnel. La sécurité ainsi que l'aspect au niveau de l'urbanisme sont des éléments indispensables à la réussite et à l'intérêt que porteront les acquéreurs de ce type d'habitations. Ce concept de cette plate-forme est innovateur et va apporter une réponse aux concepteurs, elle laisse le choix de la forme, du type de construction, elle permet de concevoir des constructions orientables qui conservent les spécificités des régions. A ce jour les constructions orientables ont des formes fixes qui s'intègrent difficilement dans un milieu urbain ( lotissement).All the mechanisms as well as the overall design of the platform are carried out with the major concern of responding to all the problems of safety of people during the rotation of the platform. The circular shape of the platform as well as its position at ground level allow for the insertion of the dwelling in the site to keep a traditional aspect. The security as well as the aspect at the level of town planning are elements essential to the success and interest of the buyers of this type of housing. This concept of this platform is innovative and will provide an answer to designers, it leaves the choice of form, type of construction, it makes it possible to design orientable constructions which keep the specificities of the regions. To date adjustable constructions have fixed forms which are difficult to integrate into an urban environment ( subdivision).
