Abstract

A floating cover for a swimming pool is made up of non-hollow profiles which are joined to one another by pivotable joints, and consist of plastic materials with a closed-pore structure. The non-hollow profiles forming a swimming pool cover consist of polyethylene, polypropylene or PVC with a closed-pore structure.

Description

Die vorgelegte Erfindung betrifft eine neue Art der Materiale für die Anfertigung von allerart Profile für die Konstruktion von schwimmenden Abdeckungen bei Schwimmbäder deren Konzept das Aufroll-System (1) betrifft. dh. die erwähnten Profile in Leistenform werden ineinander geschoben bis zur Erreichung der gewünschten Grösse der Abdeckung.
Diese Abdeckung wird anschliessend auf eine Welle (2), welche von Hand oder durch Motor, auf- oder abgerollt wird.The present invention relates to a new type of materials for the production of all kinds of profiles for the construction of floating covers for swimming pools, the concept of which relates to the roll-up system (1). ie. the profiles in the form of strips are pushed into each other until the desired size of the cover is reached.
This cover is then on a shaft (2), which is rolled up or down by hand or by motor.

Die Erfindung liegt Primär bei der Anwendung neuer Materialen unabhängig der Art oder Zeichnung der Profile in sich.The invention is primarily in the use of new materials regardless of the type or Drawing of the profiles in itself.

Durch die Anwendung neuer Materialen werden VOLL-Profile oder Vollstab-Profile angefertigt und zwar in folgender Materialaufstellung.Through the use of new materials, FULL profiles or solid rod profiles are created made in the following material list.

Kunststoffe mit geschlossenen Zellen und einer geringere <1 Dichte als Wasser Kunststoffe ohne Zellen, mit einer geringere <1 Dichte als Wasser Naturstoffe wie Holz, mit einer geringere <1 Dichte als Wasser Natur- und Kunststoffe kombiniertPlastics with closed cells and less than 1 density than water Plastics without cells, with a lower <1 density than water Natural materials such as wood, with a lower density than <1 Natural and plastic combined

Es sind verschiedene Ausführungen bekannt. Alle jedoch haben Hohlprofile (4) mit zwei oder mehreren Kammern mit oder ohne Isolations-Füllung was folgenden Nachteile haben. Da es sich um Hohlprofile handelt müssen um das Eindringen von Wasser zu vermeiden, mit Endköpfe versehen werden. Diese Endstücke werden mehr schlecht als recht verleimt oder verschweisst wodurch diese früh oder spät undicht werden. Diese Methode ist Zeitaufwendig mit grosser Verteuerung bei der Herstellung der Abdeckungen. Weiter werden diese Hohlprofile vorwiegend aus Dünnwandung aus PVC die oft nicht einmal einen Millimeter betragen, darum sind diese auch leicht verletzbar. Sehr oft schon bei leichten Hagel.
Die in der Erfindung erwähnten Profile handelt es sich um VOLL-Profile die alle erwähnten Nachteile der Hohlprofile aufheben. Der Erfinder möchte hier eigentlich nur die Anwendung vom neuen Material ohne eigentlich auf die Art oder Form der Hohlprofile auf dem gegenwärtigen Markt eingehen, schützen. Diese Hohlprofile wurde einfach dem Fensterrolladen Markt entnommen.Various designs are known. However, all have hollow profiles (4) with two or more chambers with or without insulation filling, which have the following disadvantages. Since these are hollow profiles, end heads must be provided to prevent water from penetrating. These end pieces are more badly glued or welded, causing them to leak early or late. This method is time-consuming and very expensive to manufacture the covers. Furthermore, these hollow profiles are predominantly made of thin walls made of PVC, which are often not even a millimeter thick, which is why they are easily vulnerable. Very often with light hail.
The profiles mentioned in the invention are FULL profiles which overcome all the disadvantages of the hollow profiles mentioned. The inventor actually only wants to protect the use of the new material without actually going into the type or shape of the hollow profiles on the current market. These hollow profiles were simply taken from the window roller shutter market.

Auch an die bekannte Technik zur Handhabung oder Bedienung des Rolladens will das Patent nicht weiter eingehen weil diese durch die Anwendung vom neuen Material nichts ändert.This also applies to the known technology for handling or operating the roller shutter Discontinue the patent because this is due to the use of the new material nothing changes.

Bei grossen oder kleineren Rundungen werden diese Hohl-Profile kantig geschnitten. Dagegen mit den VOLL-Profile können diesen Rundungen stufenlos und genau zugeschnitten werden. Auch die auf dem Markt befindenden Farbtöne sind auf 3-4 Nuancen beschränkt. Die Maschine für die Herstellung der VOLL-Profile kann in einigen Minuten in allen Farben der RAL-Kollektion oder nach Wunsch umgestellt werden.In the case of large or small curves, these hollow profiles are cut angularly. In contrast, with the VOLL profiles, these curves can be steplessly and precisely be tailored. The colors on the market are also 3-4 Nuances limited. The machine for the production of the FULL profiles can be in some Minutes in all colors of the RAL collection or as required.

Der Erfinder möchte hier folgenden Farbtöne-Imitationen dem Patent eingliedern:The inventor would like to incorporate the following color shades imitations into the patent:

Holz- Granit- Marmor- und anderen Mineralen. Auch metallisierte Farben Gold, Silber, Kupfer und andere Metalle, sowie fosforezenten (leuchtend).Wood, granite, marble and other minerals. Also metallic colors gold, silver, Copper and other metals, as well as fossil (bright).

Alle diese VOLL-Profile sind Anti-UV behandelt.All of these FULL profiles are anti-UV treated.

Diese Roll-Abdeckungen können auch ausser dem Bereich der Schwimmbäder Anwendung finden wie: offene Behälter und Wannen sei es im Lebensmittel Sektor oder, da auch Säure- und Laugenbeständig, für die Industrie.These roll covers can also be used outside the swimming pool area Find applications such as: open containers and tubs, be it in the food sector or, because it is also acid and alkali resistant, for industry.

Diese Endkappen der alten Hohl-Profile hatten die Aufgabe, neben dem Abschliessen der Hohlprofile auch eine seitliche Verschiebung der Profile zu vermeiden. Bei diesen neuen VOLL-Profile musste eine andere Lösung gefunden werden. Der Erfinder fand eine Lösung in dem man an der Stirnseite der Scharniere einfach einen Plastikstift, Plastiknagel, Plastikschraube (3) in die Öffnung einschlägt oder einschraubt.These end caps of the old hollow profiles were used to close the Hollow profiles also to avoid lateral displacement of the profiles. With these new ones Another solution had to be found with VOLL profiles. The inventor found one Solution by simply placing a plastic pin on the front of the hinges, Hammer in or screw in plastic nail, plastic screw (3).

Zur besseren Aufklärung des Patentes, will der Erfinder, neben den neuen Materialen auch das Profil schützen.
Die neuen Materiale haben folgende unvergleichbare Vorteile.

  • extra hohe Druckfestigkeit (weil Voll-Profil)
  • extra hohe Schlagfestigkeit (weil Voll-Profil)
  • grosse Kälteschlagfähigkeit und Bruchfestigkeit bei Eisschicht
  • Trotz Voll-Profil, gute thermische Eigenschaften
  • die angewendeten Kunststoff sind Recyclingbar und voll wieder anwendbar
  • weiter können diese Kunststoffe ohne Schadstoffe-Emission verbrannt werden
  • das neue Material garantiert eine weitaus lange Lebensdauer
To better clarify the patent, the inventor wants to protect the profile in addition to the new materials.
The new materials have the following incomparable advantages.
  • extra high compressive strength (because of full profile)
  • extra high impact resistance (because of full profile)
  • great cold impact and breaking strength in ice layers
  • Despite full profile, good thermal properties
  • the plastics used are recyclable and fully reusable
  • these plastics can also be burned without pollutant emissions
  • the new material guarantees a long life
