Definitions

  • the invention relates to sanitary cleaning public.
  • the invention provides sanitary equipped having a frame, a floor and a cleaning device of the ground, this device comprising a feed duct water and a water distribution nozzle, connected to said led and opening in the vicinity of the ground, said nozzle having a nipple having two facing surfaces convergent, at least one of which is formed by the structure of the health.
  • This simplification makes it possible to increase the size of the nozzle and cover well, when cleaning, the entire floor area, to the benefit of the quality of the cleaning.
  • one of the surfaces of the bottleneck is formed by the building of sanitary, while the other is formed by an attached profile attached to the frame, these convergent surfaces preferably being flat.
  • the profile comprises, for example, a pipe abutting the supply duct, while the frame may comprise a wall on which is mounted the profile, said low wall having an indentation for the passage of water, the right of which opens said tubing.
  • the frame has a base on which the floor is mounted, and which forms one of the converging surfaces of the bottleneck, the feed duct being disposed between the underbody and the floor.
  • the supply duct is disposed in a channel formed in the basement.
  • the nozzle may comprise a deflector butted at said inlet and opening in the vicinity of the floor, said deflector being shaped to channel the flow of so as to form a stream of water tangent to said floor.
  • the deflector includes, for the channelization of the flow, two cylindrical surfaces facing each other, who can each present in section a shaped profile Dec.
  • the frame comprises a side wall adjoining the floor, wall in which is formed one of the converging surfaces of the Narrows.
  • a bin for collecting garbage carried by the washing water can be provided, as well as pump which, for the recycling of water, is connected to a part of the collecting tray, and secondly to the duct Power.
  • Figure 1 is shown a sanitary 1 for to be placed on public roads in order to satisfy the passers-by.
  • This sanitary 1 comprises a frame 2 of generally prismatic having lateral walls (two of which, referenced 3 and 4, are shown in FIG. 1) as well as a molded concrete base 5, on which is a floor 6 whose upper surface 7 forms the sanitary floor 1.
  • the floor 6 is mounted floating and rests on studs 8 which is provided with the base 5 (with For the sake of clarity, these pads are not represented on Figures 5 and 6). Silentblocks (not shown) can be interposed between the floor 6 and the pads 8, in order to cushion the floor 6 and to mute the sanitary 1 to improve comfort.
  • Sanitary 1 further comprises a device for cleaning 9 of the ground 7 by splashing water, which comprises at minus one, and preferably - as shown on FIG. 2 - two water supply ducts 10, 11 substantially parallel which are arranged under the floor 6, between the latter and the base 5, while being respectively nested in two parallel channels 12 dug between two adjacent rows of studs 8.
  • the cleaning device 9 also comprises a water distribution nozzle 13, connected to the ducts 10, 11 and opening in the vicinity of the floor 6.
  • This nozzle 13 aims to form a substantially water blade which, when cleaning has been started - at the request or automatically - will sweep the ground 7.
  • the nozzle 13 channels the flow so as to give it, at from a circular section at the exit of the conduits 10 and 11, a substantially rectangular section very flattened during its projection on the ground 7.
  • the nozzle 13 comprises, firstly, a nipple 14 which is connected to the ducts 10, 11 and, then, a deflector 15 which is abutted at the narrowing end 14 the opposite of the ducts 10 and 11.
  • the bottleneck 14 presents in section a profile in V, and comprises two flat surfaces opposite that converge away from conduits 10, 11, namely a lower surface 16 and a upper surface 17.
  • the surface bottom 16 is formed by the frame 2, in this case by the underbody 5, while the upper surface 17 is formed by a profile 18 reported, fixed to the frame 2.
  • downstream wing 20 is extended, on the opposite side to the upstream wing 19, by a folded edge 25 which, as will be seen below, facilitates fixation of the deflector 15.
  • the base 5 comprises a wall 26, formed by molding during the manufacture of the base 5, low wall which is mounted the profile 18.
  • This wall 26 has a front face 27, against which the upstream wing 19 of the section 18 is applied, and a upper face 28, against which comes to apply the downstream wing 20 of the profile 18 ( Figure 4).
  • indentations 29a, 29b (Figure 1) for the passage of water from conduits 10, 11, notches 29a, 29b at the right of which respectively open the tubings 22, 23 of the profile 18 when it is correctly positioned on the wall 26.
  • the lower surface 16 of the neck 14 is formed by two inclined ramps 30a, 30b which, in top view ( Figure 5) have a mushroom-shaped profile flattened and each comprise a first portion 31a, 31b small width, delimited by the notch 29a, 29b, extended by a second portion 32a, 32b of large width that goes flaring behind the wall 26, that is to say opposite the front face 27 thereof.
  • portions 32a, 32b of the ramps 30a, 30b are joined, so that the water coming from the two ducts 10 and 11 form out of the bottleneck 14 a single stream of section flattened rectangular.
  • the deflector 15 is in turn in the form of a monobloc metal profile, made for example by molding of an aluminum alloy.
  • a gap 34 is formed between the end 33 of the floor 6 and the wall lateral 4 opposite.
  • the deflector 15 is shaped to channel the flow leaving the narrowing 14 so as to form a jet of water tangent to the floor 6.
  • the deflector 15 comprises, for the channelization of the flow, two cylindrical walls, concentric, respectively internal 35 and external 36, substantially in the form of gutters (i.e. that they present in section a form of C), and of which the facing internal surfaces define, in the extension of the narrowing 14, a duct 37 with section rectangular flattened opening, through an opening 38 to rectangular section, above and in the vicinity of the ground 7.
  • the deflector 15 has a wall 39 which connects the upper and lower edges 41 of the cylindrical wall internal 35, this wall 39 having, on the one hand, on the of the lower edge 41, a vertical portion 42 which comes press against the folded edge 25 of the profile 18 and by through which the deflector 15 is attached to profile 18, and, on the other hand, on the side of the upper edge 40, an angled return 43 which, with this upper edge 40, defines a housing 44 in which comes to fit the end 33 of the floor 6.
  • outer cylindrical wall 36 As for the outer cylindrical wall 36, it is extends, on the opposite side to the opening 38, beyond the inner wall 35, by a lip 45 which comes to apply against the lower surface 16 of the neck 14, so as to stabilize the deflector 15 when it is in position.
  • the vertical part 42 of the wall 39 and the lip 45 are provided with grooves 46, 47 in which seals are housed which are thus compressed between, respectively, the vertical portion 42 and the folded edge 25 on the one hand, the lip 45 and the lower surface 16 on the other go.
  • the deflector 15 comprises a shelf 48 which extends in cantilever from opening 38 to - or up to near - the side wall 4.
  • a wing of stiffening 49 connects the outer cylindrical wall 36 to the shelf 48, which extends, on the side of the wall 4, by a falling edge 50 which is embedded in a cleat 51 to attach the deflector to the wall 4.
  • nozzle 13 partly in the frame 2 of sanitary 1 (in this case in bedrock 5) and partly by one (or more) patches (in the occurrence of the profile 18 and the deflector 15) makes it possible simplifying its manufacture, to increase the dimensions of the nozzle 13, which is not particularly limited in width (that is, perpendicular to the flow). It is therefore possible to run the nozzle 13 over the entire side wall 4, so the cleaning water comes sweep the entire surface 7 of the floor 6.
  • the water supplied through the ducts 10, 11 to the nozzle 13 is projected by the opening 38 to form a flat blade that sweeps the floor 6 in a direction opposite to the side wall 4.
  • the floor 6 is inclined to drain the wash water to a bin 52 for garbage collection (paper, cans, etc.) carried by the water during the cleaning, this garbage being picked up by maintenance staff.
  • garbage collection paper, cans, etc.
  • the surface 7 thereof is preferably grooved (at 53 in FIG. 4), parallel to the direction of water propagation, that is to say perpendicular to the side wall 4. In this way, washing water flowing through the grooves causes the rubbish removal and their training towards the ferry 52.
  • the water circuit of the cleaning device 9 can be closed: it comprises for this purpose a pump 54 connected on the one hand in the tank 52, where it takes the water having already served, and other by the supply ducts 10, 11, in which it propels towards the nozzle 13 the water in from the tank 52.
  • the majority of the garbage can be retained in the tray 52, for example by means of a grid (no represented), it can remain in the water impurities in suspension. In order to rid the dirty water of these impurities, it is sufficient to equip the pump 54 with a filter, possibly removable so as to allow its replacement or cleaning when it is judged necessary.
  • connection sleeves 24 on the pipes 22, 23 After fitting the connection sleeves 24 on the pipes 22, 23, the latter is connected to the ducts 10, 11 by fitting the sleeves 24 on the ducts 10, 11.
  • the ducts 10, 11 are then installed in their 12 channels after connecting them to the pump (FIG. 2), while the profile 18 is nested on the wall 26 and that we embed the falling edge 50 on the cleat 51.
  • ducts 10 and 11 run under the floor 6, the invention is not limited to this structure special.
  • the nozzle 13 will extend vertically against the side wall 4 which, instead of the underbody 5 as described above, will form thus the lower surface of the neck, so that the simplicity of manufacture and assembly of the nozzle will be retained.
