Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cover structure that can be discovered, in particular for swimming pools, as described in GB 2,169,326 A . It relates more particularly to profiles intended to form the hoops constituting the framework of this structure.
- Such structures generally consist of fixed and / or sliding elements which are themselves forms of pairs of arches between which panels, of deformable material, and usually transparent or translucent, are mounted. Some of these panels are slidably mounted to make each element at least partially discoverable.
- the elements may themselves be fixed or mobile telescopically and horizontally relative to each other.
- the arches each forming a pair of elements are formed from a section - usually lacquered aluminum - which is curved and which has on its lateral faces several grooves for receiving the deformable panels and to ensure sliding.
- the lower grooves of the profile that is to say in the remainder of this text, those located on the side of the smallest radius of bending, receive the sliding panels and louvers which, on each side of the hoops, down to the ground.
- These panels are mostly made of a solid and transparent material, such as in particular polymethyl methacrylate resin or polycarbonate resin, so that these side panels lift have a significant weight to lift to discover in part vertically the structure on its sides, and this, always between each element.
- the deformable and sliding panels used most often are flat panels, so that their variable curve is conferred by the arched shape arches between which they are arranged. It follows that, the lateral edges of the panels naturally apply against the inner walls of the guide grooves, so that, during the vertical displacement of the movable panels descending towards the ground, on each longitudinal side of the structure (ascent or descent), one creates by friction, as and when used, scratches on the edges of their faces in contact with the profile.
- the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing means for avoiding such scratches, these means also facilitating the sliding of the panels in their guide groove.
- the subject of the present invention is thus a covering structure, especially for a swimming pool, capable of being at least partly uncovered and which consists of several pairs of parallel arcs, which ensure the retention of the deformable panels, in particular of transparent material or translucent, the arches being constituted by a curved section, whose side walls are provided with a series of parallel guide grooves superimposed, perpendicular to the plane of the arch in which the deformable panels take place, each groove of guide having two inner faces, parallel, and a bottom wall, characterized in that at least one of the panels is provided, on each of the edges of its two lateral sides, intended to take place in the guide grooves, d a raising and sliding tab which comes into contact with at least one of the internal faces of the groove, and whose height under the panel is sufficient for to prevent any contact of it with the profile.
- the present invention also relates to the fact that the end of at least one inner face of at least one of the grooves will be provided with a rib extending over at least part of the groove. length of the profile. This rib makes it possible to form, with the bottom of the throat, a buffer tank.
- This tongue, raising and sliding, located under a panel will have a thickness greater than the height of the rib, which is associated with it.
- this tongue of raising and sliding integral with its movable panel, will be lower, at the entrance of the selected groove of the arch profile, so that the panel can be easily introduced laterally between each pair of poles of the structure.
- This tongue enhancement and sliding will necessarily be formed of a flexible material to fit with its panel variable curvature of the arch and have a good coefficient of sliding, relative to the material constituting the profile.
- this flexible tongue of raising and sliding will have a contact surface with the profile that can be reduced relative to its total base area.
- Another object of the present invention is therefore to propose a reversible type profile which makes it possible to realize the ridge panels of the structure of different thicknesses, using a single profile.
- the present invention thus relates to a structure of the aforementioned type, wherein the upper and lower grooves have different heights and have a rib on each end of their inner faces.
- the upper and lower faces of the profile will have means for ensuring the maintenance of a connecting element between the arch formed by the profile and a hoop disposed therebelow.
- the profile will preferably comprise a central core in which the guide grooves will be constituted by parallel fins, superimposed, perpendicular to the plane of the hoop.
- the groove, whose inner face is provided with a rib, will be a lower groove.
- FIGS 1a and 1b a structure 1 which covers a pool, respectively in the closed position and in the open position.
- This structure consists of three vaults, namely a fixed vault 3a, a mobile vault 3b coming, in the open position, to fit under the vault 3a and a third vault 3c, embedded in the vault 3b.
- each of these vaults is of the same type, that is to say that it consists of a series of arches 5 which are distant and which define a number of elements.
- the vault 3a has four elements while the vaults 3b and 3c have three elements.
- Each of the arches 5 consists of a profile 7, for example, an extruded aluminum profile, bent, often in one or more parts, and which is ends sometimes in its parts joining the ground, by two vertical zones making it possible to obtain more height available inside the structure, on its lateral sides.
- the section of this section 7 is represented on the figure 2 for example. It thus consists of a central core 8 of tubular overall shape, the center of which receives a sheath 9 (shown in dotted lines in the drawing) which is intended in particular to ensure the fixing of this arch 5 with the ground and to ensure the linking the portions of the arches together when these arches are made of several parts.
- Each of the two lateral faces, of the web 8 of the section 7, comprises four superimposed wings, namely an outer wing 11, an inner wing 12 and two central wings 13.
- the inner flange 12 defines with the central flange 13 adjacent thereto, a lower guide groove 15 '.
- the upper groove 15 is intended to receive the ridge panel of the element, which consists of a panel 16 of great thickness which is fixed with respect to the section 7.
- the panels 16 may be made of any plastic material, deformable, and, preferably, transparent or translucent and in particular a polycarbonate resin generally honeycomb structure.
- the throat lower guide 15 ' is intended to receive vertically sliding lifting panels 18 which, as shown in FIG. figure 1a , are located on both sides of the arches and descend in this case to the ground.
- the lower guide groove 15 ' The end of the lower inner walls of the groove 15 'is provided with a rib 19, of thickness e, which extends over the entire length of the profile 7.
- This rib 19 makes it possible to form inside grooves of 15 'guiding, a kind of buffer tank 20, intended to receive, to collect, external runoff and promote their flow to the base of the arches.
- This flexible tongue enhancement and sliding 22 comprises a slot 24 in which is embedded for example by force - could also be provided in particular a fixing by gluing, screwing or other - the 2 sides of the panel 18.
- the thickness E of the portion of this tongue 22, located under the panel, will be sufficient so that the sliding panel 18 can not come into contact with the rib 19 of the profile 7.
- the invention is particularly interesting insofar as it avoids any scratching of the panel 18, since it can not come into contact with the flanges 12, 13 of the guide grooves 15 '.
- this flexible tongue enhancement and sliding 22 provides two functions, namely: firstly, a function specific to the preservation of the stripes of the sliding panel 18, and secondly, a function to facilitate sliding.
- this tongue 22 may consist of one or more elements that extend continuously over the entire length of the two lateral sides of the sliding panel 18, or on the contrary, it may consist of elements more or less punctual, distributed regularly or not, along said length.
- the width of the base of this flexible extension and sliding tongue 22, associated and integral with the sliding panel 18, will necessarily have a dimension less than the width of the base of the buffer tank 20 to allow the expansion and essential withdrawal to provide the panel 18 in the grooves 15 'of each pair of poles of the structure, or in the grooves 15, when the arch profiles 7 are used in reversibility.
- the profiles 7 generally comprise a groove 14 which is disposed on their lower face, that is to say on the side of the smallest radius of bending of the arch 5, and which is intended to receive the heel of a flexible element such as, for example, a plastic broom, a brush, etc. which ensures a function of vertical junction between the arch formed by this profile and a hoop disposed under it.
- the section 7, in order to be completely reversible, will have in turn, in addition, a second groove 14 'on its upper face, that is to say on the side of the largest radius of bending of the arch.
- Such an embodiment allows using a single extrusion die, to obtain a double configuration of the structure.
- the profile 7 has a solid section of rectangular shape, for example, in the transverse walls of which upper and lower grooves are hollowed out.
- grooves form the grooves 15 and 15 'respectively intended to receive the fixed panels 16 and sliding 18.

Description
La présente invention concerne une structure de couverture apte à être découverte, notamment pour piscine, telle que décrit dans
On sait, que de telles structures sont globalement constituées d'éléments fixes et/ou coulissants qui sont eux-mêmes formes de paires d'arceaux entre lesquels des panneaux, en matériau déformable, et habituellement transparent ou translucide, sont montés. Certains de ces panneaux sont montés à coulissement de façon à rendre chaque élément , apte à être découvert, au moins partiellement.It is known that such structures generally consist of fixed and / or sliding elements which are themselves forms of pairs of arches between which panels, of deformable material, and usually transparent or translucent, are mounted. Some of these panels are slidably mounted to make each element at least partially discoverable.
En fonction du cahier des charges souhaité par le concepteur, les éléments peuvent être eux-mêmes fixes ou mobiles télescopiquement et horizontalement les uns par rapport aux autres.Depending on the specifications desired by the designer, the elements may themselves be fixed or mobile telescopically and horizontally relative to each other.
Les arceaux formant chacun par paire un élément, sont constitués à partir d'un profilé - généralement en aluminium laqué - qui est cintré et qui comporte sur ses faces latérales plusieurs gorges destinées à recevoir les panneaux déformables et à en assurer le coulissement.The arches each forming a pair of elements, are formed from a section - usually lacquered aluminum - which is curved and which has on its lateral faces several grooves for receiving the deformable panels and to ensure sliding.
On connaît ainsi, par le brevet
Les gorges inférieures du profilé, c'est-à -dire dans la suite du présent texte, celles situées du côté du plus petit rayon de cintrage, reçoivent les panneaux coulissants et relevables qui, de chaque côté des arceaux, descendent vers le sol. Ces panneaux sont la plupart du temps constitués d'un matériau plein et transparent, tel que notamment en résine de polyméthacrylate de méthyle ou en résine de polycarbonate, si bien, que ces panneaux latéraux relevables possèdent un poids non négligeable à soulever pour découvrir en partie verticalement la structure sur ses côtés, et ce, toujours entre chaque élément.The lower grooves of the profile, that is to say in the remainder of this text, those located on the side of the smallest radius of bending, receive the sliding panels and louvers which, on each side of the hoops, down to the ground. These panels are mostly made of a solid and transparent material, such as in particular polymethyl methacrylate resin or polycarbonate resin, so that these side panels lift have a significant weight to lift to discover in part vertically the structure on its sides, and this, always between each element.
On sait par ailleurs que, dans de telles structures, pour réaliser les différents éléments mobiles ou non qui la constituent, les panneaux déformables et coulissants utilisés le plus souvent sont des panneaux plans, de sorte que leur galbe variable leur est conféré par la forme cintrée des arceaux entre lesquels ils sont disposés. Il en résulte que, les bords latéraux des panneaux s'appliquent naturellement contre les parois internes des gorges de guidage, de sorte que, lors du déplacement vertical des panneaux mobiles descendant vers le sol, de chaque côté longitudinal de la structure ( montée ou descente), on crée par frottement, au fur et à mesure de l'utilisation, des rayures sur les bords de leurs faces en contact avec le profilé. Or, on sait que, pour des raisons essentiellement dues à la dilatation des panneaux, l'écartement de deux arceaux d'un même élément doit être supérieur à la largeur des panneaux, qu'ils soient fixes au faîtage, ou relevables sur les côtés. Ces panneaux de côté peuvent ainsi se déplacer, légèrement, dans le sens transversal, soit d'un côté soit de l'autre, ce qui a pour effet de rendre visible ces rayures sur plusieurs millimètres, sur chacun des côtés latéraux de ces panneaux relevables.It is also known that, in such structures, to achieve the various mobile or non-moving elements that constitute it, the deformable and sliding panels used most often are flat panels, so that their variable curve is conferred by the arched shape arches between which they are arranged. It follows that, the lateral edges of the panels naturally apply against the inner walls of the guide grooves, so that, during the vertical displacement of the movable panels descending towards the ground, on each longitudinal side of the structure (ascent or descent), one creates by friction, as and when used, scratches on the edges of their faces in contact with the profile. However, it is known that, for reasons essentially due to the expansion of the panels, the spacing of two arches of the same element must be greater than the width of the panels, they are fixed to the ridge, or lift on the sides . These side panels can thus move, slightly, in the transverse direction, or on one side or the other, which has the effect of making visible these scratches on several millimeters, on each of the lateral sides of these panels liftable .
Il en résulte ainsi, un défaut sur le plan de l'esthétique qui est difficilement acceptable par les utilisateurs. De plus, en raison du frottement de ces panneaux dans leur gorges de guidage, l'utilisateur est contraint d'exercer un effort supplémentaire sur ceux-ci lorsqu'il souhaite les faire coulisser pour les soulever.This results in a defect in terms of aesthetics that is difficult to accept by users. In addition, because of the friction of these panels in their guide grooves, the user is forced to exert additional effort on them when he wants to slide to lift them.
La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients, en proposant des moyens permettant d'éviter de telles rayures, ces moyens facilitant par ailleurs le coulissement des panneaux dans leur gorge de guidage.The present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing means for avoiding such scratches, these means also facilitating the sliding of the panels in their guide groove.
La présente invention a ainsi pour objet, une structure de couverture, notamment pour piscine, apte à être au moins en partie découverte et qui est constituée de plusieurs paires d'arceaux parallèles, qui assurent le maintien des panneaux déformables, notamment en matériau transparent ou translucide, les arceaux étant constitués, d'un profilé cintré, dont les parois latérales sont pourvues d'une série de gorges de guidage parallèles, superposées, perpendiculaires, au plan de l'arceau dans lesquelles prennent place les panneaux déformables, chaque gorge de guidage comportant deux faces internes, parallèles, et une paroi de fond, caractérisée, en ce que au moins l'un des panneaux est pourvu, sur chacun des bords de ses deux côtés latéraux, destinés à prendre place dans les gorges de guidage, d'une languette de rehausse et de coulissement qui vient en contact, avec au moins l'une des faces internes de la gorge, et, dont la hauteur sous le panneau, est suffisante pour empêcher tout contact de celui-ci avec le profilé.The subject of the present invention is thus a covering structure, especially for a swimming pool, capable of being at least partly uncovered and which consists of several pairs of parallel arcs, which ensure the retention of the deformable panels, in particular of transparent material or translucent, the arches being constituted by a curved section, whose side walls are provided with a series of parallel guide grooves superimposed, perpendicular to the plane of the arch in which the deformable panels take place, each groove of guide having two inner faces, parallel, and a bottom wall, characterized in that at least one of the panels is provided, on each of the edges of its two lateral sides, intended to take place in the guide grooves, d a raising and sliding tab which comes into contact with at least one of the internal faces of the groove, and whose height under the panel is sufficient for to prevent any contact of it with the profile.
La présente invention a également pour objet, le fait que, l'extrémité d'au moins une face interne, d'au moins l'une des gorges, sera pourvue d'une nervure, s'étendant sur une partie au moins de la longueur du profilé. Cette nervure permet de constituer, avec le fond de la gorge, un réservoir tampon.The present invention also relates to the fact that the end of at least one inner face of at least one of the grooves will be provided with a rib extending over at least part of the groove. length of the profile. This rib makes it possible to form, with the bottom of the throat, a buffer tank.
La partie de cette languette, de rehausse et de coulissement, située sous un panneau, aura une épaisseur supérieure à la hauteur de la nervure, qui lui est associée.The portion of this tongue, raising and sliding, located under a panel, will have a thickness greater than the height of the rib, which is associated with it.
Bien entendu, l'épaisseur totale, de cette languette de rehausse et de coulissement, solidaire de son panneau mobile, sera inférieure, à l'entrée de la gorge choisie du profil d'arceau, de façon que, le panneau puisse être facilement introduit latéralement entre chaque paire d'arceaux de la structure.Of course, the total thickness of this tongue of raising and sliding, integral with its movable panel, will be lower, at the entrance of the selected groove of the arch profile, so that the panel can be easily introduced laterally between each pair of poles of the structure.
Cette languette de rehausse et de coulissement, sera nécessairement, formée d'un matériau flexible pour s'adapter avec son panneau au galbe variable de l'arceau et possédera un bon coefficient de glissement, par rapport au matériau constituant le profilé.This tongue enhancement and sliding, will necessarily be formed of a flexible material to fit with its panel variable curvature of the arch and have a good coefficient of sliding, relative to the material constituting the profile.
Par ailleurs, afin de réduire les frottements, cette languette flexible de rehausse et de coulissement, possédera une surface de contact avec le profilé qui pourra être réduite par rapport à sa surface de base totale.Moreover, in order to reduce friction, this flexible tongue of raising and sliding, will have a contact surface with the profile that can be reduced relative to its total base area.
On notera de plus que, en fonction de la nature de la structure à réaliser, il peut être intéressant de réaliser le faîtage d'un élément, en utilisant des panneaux d'épaisseurs différentes en fonction du niveau d'isolation souhaité, et ceci, sans être pour autant contraint de faire appel à un autre profilé.It will be further noted that, depending on the nature of the structure to be produced, it may be advantageous to make the ridge of an element, using panels of different thicknesses depending on the desired level of insulation, and this, without being forced to use another profile.
Cela représente des économies au niveau de la fabrication des profilés, de leur stockage et de leur distribution.This represents savings in the production of profiles, their storage and distribution.
La présente invention a ainsi également pour but, de proposer un profilé de type réversible permettant ainsi de réaliser les panneaux de faîtage de la structure de différentes épaisseurs, en faisant appel à un seul profilé.Another object of the present invention is therefore to propose a reversible type profile which makes it possible to realize the ridge panels of the structure of different thicknesses, using a single profile.
La présente invention a ainsi pour objet une structure du type précité, dans laquelle les gorges supérieure et inférieure ont des hauteurs différentes et comportent une nervure sur chacune des extrémités de leurs faces internes.The present invention thus relates to a structure of the aforementioned type, wherein the upper and lower grooves have different heights and have a rib on each end of their inner faces.
Afin d'assurer une totale réversibilité, les faces supérieure et inférieure du profilé posséderont des moyens permettant d'assurer le maintien d'un élément de jonction entre l'arceau formé par ce profilé et un arceau disposé sous celui-ci.To ensure complete reversibility, the upper and lower faces of the profile will have means for ensuring the maintenance of a connecting element between the arch formed by the profile and a hoop disposed therebelow.
Le profilé comportera préférentiellement un noyau central dans lequel les gorges de guidage seront constituées par des ailettes parallèles, superposées, perpendiculaires au plan de l'arceau. Préférentiellement, la gorge, dont la face interne est pourvue d'une nervure, sera une gorge inférieure.The profile will preferably comprise a central core in which the guide grooves will be constituted by parallel fins, superimposed, perpendicular to the plane of the hoop. Preferably, the groove, whose inner face is provided with a rib, will be a lower groove.

On a représenté, à titre d'exemple, sur les
L'ossature de chacune de ces voûtes est de même type, c' est-à -dire, qu'elle est constituée d'une série d'arceaux 5 qui sont distants et qui définissent un certain nombre d'éléments.The framework of each of these vaults is of the same type, that is to say that it consists of a series of
Ainsi la voûte 3a possède quatre éléments alors que les voûtes 3b et 3c possèdent trois éléments.Thus the
Chacun des arceaux 5 est constitué d'un profilé 7, par exemple, d'un profilé en aluminium obtenu par extrusion, cintré, souvent en une ou plusieurs parties, et qui se termine parfois dans ses parties rejoignant le sol, par deux zones verticales permettant d'obtenir de suite davantage de hauteur disponible à l'intérieur de la structure, sur ses cotés latéraux.Each of the

Les panneaux 16 peuvent être constitués de toute matière plastique, déformable, et, de préférence, transparente ou translucide et notamment d'une résine de polycarbonate généralement à structure alvéolaire. La gorge de guidage inférieure 15', quant à elle, est destinée à recevoir des panneaux relevables coulissants verticalement 18 qui, comme représenté sur la

On a constaté ici que l'écoulement des eaux de ruissellement se fait bien entendu sans problème pour les parties du profilé qui possèdent une forte pente, mais qu'il n'en était pas de même pour celles de celui-ci qui possèdent une faible pente. Les nervures 19, en constituant une sorte de réservoir tampon 20 à l'extrémité interne des ailes 12 du profilé 7 ou des ailes 11 du profilé 7 utilisé en réversibilité, permettent un stockage temporaire des eaux de ruissellement, pendant le temps suffisant nécessaire à leur écoulement.It has been noted here that the flow of the run-off is of course no problem for those parts of the profile which have a steep slope, but that this is not the case for those parts of the profile which have a low slope. slope. The
Il a été ainsi constaté que ces nervures permettaient d'éviter tout passage de ces eaux à l'intérieur de la structure.It was thus found that these ribs prevented any passage of these waters inside the structure.
Suivant l'invention - ainsi que représenté sur les
En effet, on fixe sur les bords des 2 côtés latéraux de chacun des panneaux 18, des languettes de rehausse et de coulissement 22. Ces dernières sont réalisées en un matériau, généralement une matière plastique qui possède à la fois une bonne flexibilité, une bonne dureté et un coefficient de frottement faible par rapport au profilé 7. Cette languette flexible de rehausse et de coulissement 22 comporte une fente 24 dans laquelle vient s'encastrer par exemple à force - on pourrait également prévoir notamment une fixation par collage, vissage ou autre - les 2 cotés latéraux du panneau 18.Indeed, it is fixed on the edges of the 2 lateral sides of each of the
Préférentiellement, on fera en sorte que, la base 23 de la languette flexible de rehausse et de coulissement 22 qui vient en contact avec la face interne des gorges 15' soit réduite tout en fournissant un bon appui, de façon à minimiser le coefficient de frottement.Preferably, it will be ensured that the
L'épaisseur E de la partie de cette languette 22, située sous le panneau, sera suffisante pour que le panneau coulissant 18 ne puisse venir en contact avec la nervure 19 du profilé 7.The thickness E of the portion of this
On comprendra, bien entendu, que la hauteur totale H de cette languette 22 flexible et solidaire de son panneau 18, sera inférieure à celle L de l'entrée des gorges 15' qui reçoivent ledit panneau 18, afin de pouvoir être facilement introduite latéralement dans celles-ci.It will be understood, of course, that the total height H of this
L'invention est particulièrement intéressante dans la mesure où elle évite toute rayure du panneau 18, puisque celui-ci ne peut venir en contact avec les ailes 12, 13 des gorges de guidage 15'.The invention is particularly interesting insofar as it avoids any scratching of the
Ainsi, cette languette flexible de rehausse et de coulissement 22 assure deux fonctions, à savoir : d'une part, une fonction propre à la préservation des rayures du panneau coulissant 18, et d'autre part, une fonction propre à faciliter le coulissement.Thus, this flexible tongue enhancement and sliding 22 provides two functions, namely: firstly, a function specific to the preservation of the stripes of the sliding
Bien entendu, cette languette 22 peut être constituée d'un ou plusieurs éléments qui s'étendent de façon continue sur la totalité de la longueur des 2 côtés latéraux du panneau coulissant 18, ou au contraire, elle peut être constituée d'éléments plus ou moins ponctuels, répartis régulièrement ou non, sur ladite longueur.Of course, this

On notera également, que la largeur de la base de cette languette flexible de rehausse et de coulissement 22, associée et solidaire du panneau coulissant 18, aura obligatoirement une dimension inférieure à la largeur de la base du réservoir tampon 20 pour permettre la dilatation et le retrait indispensable à prévoir du panneau 18 dans les gorges 15' de chaque paire d'arceaux de la structure, voire dans les gorges 15, lorsque les profilés d'arceaux 7 sont utilisés en réversibilité.It will also be noted that the width of the base of this flexible extension and sliding
Les profilés 7 comportent généralement une rainure 14 qui est disposée sur leur face inférieure, c'est-à -dire du côté du plus petit rayon de cintrage de l'arceau 5, et qui est destinée à recevoir le talon d'un élément souple tel que notamment, un balai en matière plastique, une brosse, etc. qui assure une fonction de jonction verticale entre l'arceau formé par ce profilé et un arceau disposé sous celui-ci. Le profilé 7, afin d'être totalement réversible, possédera quant à lui, en plus, une seconde rainure 14' sur sa face supérieure, c'est-à -dire du côté du plus grand rayon de cintrage de l'arceau.The profiles 7 generally comprise a
Un tel mode de mise en oeuvre permet à l'aide d'une seule filière d'extrusion, d'obtenir une double configuration de la structure.Such an embodiment allows using a single extrusion die, to obtain a double configuration of the structure.

- A structure in accordance with claim 1, wherein the edge of at least one of the internal faces of at least one of the grooves (15,15') is beaded, said beading (19) extending along at least part of the length of the profile (7) so as to form a buffer reservoir with the base of the groove (15, 15').
- A structure in accordance with claim 2, wherein the thickness (E) of the part of the protective border (22) situated under the panel is greater than the height (e) of the beading (19) on the edge of the groove (15, 15') into which the panel (16, 18) is fitted.
- A structure in accordance with one of the aforementioned claims, wherein the profile (7) consists of a central body (8) in which the guide grooves (15,15') are formed by parallel fins (11,12,13) arranged one above the other and perpendicularly to the plane of the arch (5).
- A structure in accordance with claim 4, wherein the central body (8) is tubular in shape.
- A structure in accordance with one of the aforementioned claims, wherein the groove incorporating a beading (19) along the edge of its internal face is a lower guide groove (15').
- A structure in accordance with one of the aforementioned claims, wherein the protective and elevating border (22) is made from a flexible material having a good coefficient of friction with respect to the material used to make the profile (7).
- A structure in accordance with one of the aforementioned claims, wherein the surface of the protective and elevating border (22) in contact with the profile (7) is less than the total surface of the base of said protective and elevating border.
- A structure in accordance with one of the aforementioned claims, wherein the upper guide grooves and the lower guide grooves (15, 15') differ in height (h, h').
- A structure in accordance with claim 9, wherein the guide grooves (15, 15') incorporate a beading (19) on each one of the edges of their internal faces.
- A structure in accordance with claim 9 or 10, wherein both the upper and lower faces of the body of the profile (7) incorporate a means (14, 14') of receiving an element serving as a junction between the arch formed by said profile (7) and an arch manoeuvred into place below the latter.
- A structure in accordance with any one of claims 2 to 11, wherein the total height (H) of the protective and elevating border (22) and its associated panel (18) is necessarily less than the height (L) of the entrance of the guide groove (15') receiving said panel (18).
- A structure in accordance with any one of claims 2 to 12, wherein the width of the base of the protective and elevating border (22) that is associated with and is an integral part of a vertically manoeuvrable panel (18) is necessarily less than the width of the base of the buffer reservoir (20) to allow for the expansion of the panel (18) and its withdrawal from the lower guide groove (15') of each pair of arches (5) comprising the structure, or from the upper guide groove (15) when the profile (7) is used in the reversed position.
