Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for protecting accidental falls in the pool, inadvertently or unaware of the dangers that can constitute an empty or full basin.
- the invention relates, more in particular, a protective device intended to protect a user against an accidental fall in the pool of a swimming pool.
- Document FR-A-2 712 333 describes a device for protecting a user accidental fall into the pool of a swimming pool.
- This device consists of a vertically movable barrier which can be retracted in the event of non-danger. Setting danger position and retraction are controlled by hydraulic means comprising a pipe supplied with pressurized water and placed on at least one edge of the pool basin.
- Such a barrier has the disadvantage of requiring a volume relatively deep to allow its retraction and, consequently, not to be able to equip an already existing swimming pool.
- such a barrier is very troublesome for an informed adult. who wants to enter the water, while it is necessary for the protection of children running around the pelvis.
- the device according to the invention overcomes these various drawbacks. he has, according to a first characteristic, a natural barrier of sheaves of water cold outgoing according to an important area of action, and placed at the edge of the basin.
- Each jet is connected in parallel with a push button and a pipe sanitary cold water, controlled by a valve and therefore supplied by a bypass placed after the general water meter using a T, the whole discreetly surrounding the basin and constituting a corridor of slabs slightly moving, tiles or rigid coverings, integrating with the rest of the range of swimming pool.
- each box is constituted by a slab provided with a sprinkler connected to a water supply, a remote control means being provided to trigger or not to sprinkle the player when it lands on a slab.
- the device according to the invention is not a game, but a device allowing to inform a user of a swimming pool, in particular a child, that he is located too close to the edge of the pelvis, and thus avoid a potential fall in the pool.
- a device is completely dissuasive for a young child (and informative for parents or supervisors).
- the device is therefore able to warn a user actively against the danger of falling into a swimming pool.
- the device according to the invention which is intended to protect a user of an accidental fall in the pool of a swimming pool, comprising a pipe intended to be supplied with pressurized water and to be placed on at least one edge of the basin, this pipe being capable of determining at least one spray of water from a plurality of spray sources water;
- the device comprises a plurality of tiles intended to be placed on the at least edge of the basin and commanding the at least one spray of water when the user passes over the slab associated with the at least one spray of water, the at least a spray of water being directed towards the associated slab, the plurality of sources of spray of water being arranged between the edge of the basin and the plurality of slabs.
- Either the tiles are moving, or they are linked to a means photoelectric for triggering the at least one spray of water.
- the at least one spray of water is present on a determined spherical sector directed towards the tiles and making an opening angle approximately 70 ° vertical to the horizontal plane and an opening angle of 140 ° approximately horizontally.
- Figure 1 shows a general view after the integrated implantation of the system and how it works
- Figure 2 and 2a shows in section the operating device and its use.
- Figure 3 shows, by transparency, the operating device.
- Figure 4 is a mixture of these Figures.
- the device comprises a line of jets 1 leaving only to guess their action face (water outlet), marrying and confusing at the edge of the pelvis. They are supplied by a pipe 2 arranged parallel to the edge of the pelvis.
- the pipeline can be made copper, galvanized or plastic if it is sufficiently resistant to pressure wanted.
- a conduit connects each jet 1 to the pipe 2, and buttons pushers 3 are placed in a working channel 4 under the moving slabs 5.
- buttons 3 and the flexibility of the seals 6 is such that a low pressure exerted by the user 7 on one of these slabs 5 is sufficient to cause the valve to open and thus the emission of a shower cold surprising the user who reacts instinctively, but who will, of course, be able to consciously take this same shower in all peace of mind to rinse off or to avoid hydrocution even by a passage in short, before diving, for example, wherever it is, around the pool.
- the clearance 8 determined for the movement of the slab between the position normal 9 and the action position 9bis is reduced to a minimum (approximately 5 mm). This game therefore does not interfere too much with the seals 6 which are subjected to a very slight tension affecting neither their strength nor their flexibility, the seals 6 then having, in addition, a second return spring effect; the slab is replaced perfectly and automatically when the pressure is removed.
- the flexible seal 6 can be, in some cases, slightly wider than the rest of the joints 10 of the range (mosaics) but keep as much as possible the same color.
- the push buttons 3 are fixed in the working channel 4 on which are placed slabs with a rubberized protective housing 11 to reduce the impact
- the crushed slab 5 abuts and rests on its support 12, while the button is not fully pressed; so there is no shock on the seat of the button 3.
- the moving slabs can be fitted on 2 or 4 sides with small retractable latches with small housing opposite their correspondent, allowing a descent and a perfectly straight slab rise ensuring it is just as perfect put in place.
- the triggering of the jets can just as easily be done using manual or automatic systems such as beams or cells photoelectric, remote controls, etc ...; the rule always remains the stupor of the jet cold to roll back and not go beyond this natural barrier unconsciously.
- the effective angle of the jets will be for the straight edges of the pools about 140 ° in width and 70 ° in height, and consequently for angles and rounding of the different pools.
- the corridor of the slabs is planned about 1 meter from the jets, the pipeline being open and adjusted using the valve.
- the device according to the invention is particularly intended for the protection in private pools, the installation being predominant of the good operation of the invention.

Description
- Le couloir de mouvance, suivant les contours du bassin, est constitué de dalles, carreaux ou autres revêtements rigides et compartimentables en forme de carré ou de tout autre forme, séparés par un joint souple mais très résistant aux tensions du léger jeu émis à chaque utilisation et aux intempéries.
- La dalle écrasée repose, en fin de jeu, sur un support en béton recevant tout le poids, et non pas sur le bouton poussoir qui n'est pas tout à fait en fin de course et qui est effleuré lorsque la dalle qui le protège est en position haute. Qui plus est, elle peut posséder en son centre, un logement pour le bouton poussoir. Chaque dalle, posée côte à côte et maintenue au reste du revêtement par un joint souple, est indépendante.
- Le joint inaltérable est déposé sur les deux côtés qui maintiennent fermement la dalle et est suffisamment souple pour en assurer le bon fonctionnement. Les deux autres côtés de la dalle sont, quant à eux, pourvus d'un revêtement assurant un coulissement net entre chacune d'entre elles et sensiblement invisible à l'oeil, mais pouvant éventuellement permettre un écoulement de l'eau par ces côtés afin de la recycler en piscine, le jet ne cessant qu'après le retrait du poids sur la dalle.
- Le bouton poussoir sollicité est, quant à lui, suffisamment sensible pour réagir à une moindre pression et ouvrir son clapet pour libérer le jet. Les éléments utilisés sont inoxydables.
