Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cover for a pool such a swimming pool, which consists of a covering sheet attached to a series parallel and transverse stiffening bars.
  • It also relates to a method and an assembly installation such coverage.
  • swimming pool covers consisting of a covering tarpaulin integral with a series of parallel and transverse stiffening bars, are widespread in recent years. These are essentially requirements of security that explains this development.
  • This cover consists of several elements of tarpaulin and tubular profiles.
  • the transverse edges of the covering elements comprise rods or ropes able to come engage, by a sliding movement longitudinal, in additional housing provided in the profiles.
  • the practice commonly used for making blankets is to use one and the same element of plastic unit covering, for example in polyvinyl chloride.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages.
  • the present invention also aims at providing a method and a assembling facility such a cover easy to implement and not not requiring special skills.
  • the cover when the cover is deployed on a pool such as a pool, the opposite ends of the bars resting on the edge of two sides opposite of the pelvis, and in the event that a child is on the blanket, the aforementioned ring will oppose any deformation of the pinch profile and, by consequently, to its withdrawal out of the bar.
  • the cover thus preserves its integrity, without risk of disconnection of the bars and, consequently, of the child's fall in the basin.
  • the invention also relates to a method of assembling such a blanket.
  • a last aspect of the invention relates to an installation assembly of a cover as defined above.
  • said push blade is secured to displacement means such as at least one jack.
  • FIGS. 1 to 6 the covering tarpaulin and one of its associated stiffening bars are shown in a returned position at 180 ° to that which they occupy when the cover is deployed on a basin.
  • the covering tarpaulin 1 is of the type of the one currently used as a pool cover.
  • FIG. 1 reference is made to one of the longitudinal edges of the tarpaulin 1, that is to say one of the edges which extends parallel to the direction of deployment, respectively withdrawal of the cover relative to the pool.
  • this cover consists of a sheet 1 secured to a series of parallel and transverse stiffening bars 2.
  • any other embodiment is conceivable, the profile being able to be solid and / or made of plastic.
  • the rigidifying bar 2 has a section straight in the general shape of "C", whose opening is turned upwards.
  • the bar consists of two walls 20 and 21.
  • the outer wall has a shaped cross-section of "C”, while the second inner wall has a cross-section in the shape of "U”.
  • 210 has been referenced the bottom of the inner wall 21, and 211, 212 its side walls that constitute the wings of the "U".
  • This slot gives access to a longitudinal groove 27 delimited by the bottom 210 and wings 211 and 212 of the wall 21.
  • width of the slot 26 is smaller than that of the throat 27 with which it communicates. This difference of equals is equal to width of the lip 240 added to that of the lip 250.
  • the walls 24 and 25 are inclined and converge towards the slot 26.
  • one of the ends of the outer wall 20 is interrupted. At this level is formed, delimited by the closing wall 25 and one radial partitions 23, a groove 29 to which there is access through a slot longitudinal 28.
  • the cover according to the invention also makes use of a profile 3 in the general form of an omega ( ⁇ ), also called a pinch profile, and particularly visible in Figures 1 to 6.
  • omega also called a pinch profile
  • This profile is for example made of polyvinyl chloride of a few millimeters thick, which gives it a certain rigidity in the sense longitudinal. Its length is identical to that of the bar 2 with which it is intended to cooperate.
  • Its body 30 here has an approximately oval shape, and is symmetrical with respect to a vertical median plane. Its open ends extend to form the legs 31 and 32 of the omega.
  • the inside of the body of this profile has been referenced 33. The latter is likely to deform elastically in the direction of the arrows g of Figure 2 so as to bring the lugs 31 and 32 above. However, in the absence of such a solicitation, this profile then immediately resumes its initial shape as shown in Figure 1.
  • This structure is in particular completed by a ring 4 and a skate of 5. These will be described more specifically in relation to the description of a method of assembling the cover in accordance with the invention.
  • a first step is to position the cover 1 facing the slot 26 of one of the bars. We are then in the position of Figure 1. It is well understood that the longitudinal flange 10 of the tarpaulin extends perpendicular to the bar 2 shown.
  • a gripping profile 3 is then grasped and introduced into the groove 27 of the bar 2, through the slot 26, in a movement generally perpendicular to the plane of the blanket, as shown by the arrow f .
  • the cover 1 is driven partially inside the groove 27 by the profile 3, while the bulged portions 300 of the body 30 of the latter come to bear against the edges 240 and 250 of the slot 26. This in doing so, these bulged parts are forced to move towards one another by elastic deformation, as shown by the arrows g of FIG.
  • the body 30 then fully engages in the throat 27 and resumes then its initial position as illustrated in Figure 3.
  • FIG. 4 Another element of the coverage according to the invention is a rod 4 not longitudinally deformable, shown in Figures 4 and 5.
  • this profile affects a section approximately triangular with a base 40 and two inclined walls 41.
  • this ring is introduced inside the section 3 in a longitudinal movement illustrated by the arrow h .
  • This ring has the function of opposing any deformation of the profile 3 positioned in the throat 27 and therefore, to its withdrawal out of the bar, to through slot 26 of the latter.
  • the assembly thus formed is completed by a sliding shoe 5 in general shape of "T" with a foot 50 intended to engage partially inside of the body of the pinch profile 3, in the zone of separation of the tabs 31 and 33, and a small trunk 51 terminated by a large sliding surface 52 which extends to the opposite ends of the closure walls 24 and 25.
  • this sliding pad is constituted several unit lengths, for example of a length of one meter, which are alternately fitted and properly positioned along the bar 2 associated. It is through this sliding pad that the cover is based on the edge of a pool.
  • FIG. 6 also shows a plug 6 for closing opposite ends of the bar.
  • This cap for example made of hollow plastic, is consisting in particular of a body 60 whose shape is complementary to the section the profile that constitutes the bar.
  • This body is extended by a salient element 62 intended to come partially engage in the profile, in the zone separating the two partitions 22 and 23, while preventing its unexpected withdrawal.
  • a through hole 61 which is intended, as shown in FIG. 7, at the passage of a cable 8 for energizing the cover, which also cooperates with hems 7 to report to the cover.
  • the structure thus formed is particularly practical to square. It does not require any screw or fastener of this type, which proves very practical in terms of assembly / disassembly.
  • the cover when the cover is deployed on a pool such as a pool, the opposite ends of the bars 2 resting on the edge of two opposite sides of the pond, and in the event that a child is on the covering, the ring 4 opposes any deformation of the pinch profile 3 and, by consequently, to its withdrawal out of the bar.
  • the cover thus preserves its integrity, without risk of separation of the bars 2 and, consequently, of the fall of the child in the basin.
  • This installation 9 comprises a support 90 of means 92 for immobilizing a rigidifying bar 2, so that the longitudinal groove 27 that it features leads to the top.
  • the support 90 is surmounted by a thick plate 91, in which is formed a longitudinal channel which makes it possible to immobilize the bar 2.
  • the installation also includes a push blade 932 mobile in vertical direction and disposed vertically above said groove 27, adapted to come engage in the body of the pinch profile 3 and force it to enter said throat of the bar.
  • push blade is meant a longitudinal bar of limited thickness.
  • the blade is secured to displacement means which, in the case shown here, consist of double-acting cylinders 93 (only one is visible at Figure 8). There are enough jacks for the length of the blade and these are controlled so that their rods 931 are moved in synchronism with respect to their bodies 930.
