Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for closing an opening, the device comprising a frame having an inner side and an outer side and delimiting a through access opening adapted to receive a cover, said frame comprising a frame hinge which comprises a hinge surface and a through knuckle opening located between an outer recess open towards the outer side of the frame and an inner recess open towards the inner side of the frame.
  • the invention is particularly applicable to cast iron manholes or sidewalks.
  • EP-B-391,825 a manhole that provides access to an underground pipe network, such as a sewerage system.
  • This manhole according to the preamble of claim 1 comprises a cover mounted hinged to a fixed frame by means of a hinge. This hinge allows the lifting of the cover relative to the frame by pivoting about a hinge axis.
  • the hinge comprises a knuckle formed by a recess in the frame. This recess is open upwards and adapted to receive a lid knuckle disposed on the lid.
  • the manhole is further provided with means for locking the lid in a secure open position in which the lid can not be closed in an untimely manner.
  • the recess of the frame has a transverse hole, which defines the application surfaces of the lid knuckle in its open position.
  • the recess comprises a transverse hole, this manhole is not completely sealed. As a result, rainwater can enter the sewer system and clog up the sewer system.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy this disadvantage and propose a road system that has a better seal against runoff.
  • the subject of the invention is a device of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the device further comprises an attached plug which is arranged in the inner recess and which makes the inner side of the substantially sealed frame knuckle screw from the outside, the plug being made of an elastically deformable material, in particular a single piece, and in particular elastomer.
  • This view 2 comprises a frame 4 and a buffer 6 forming a cover, made of cast iron.
  • the pad 6 is hinged to the frame 4 about a generally horizontal axis X-X.
  • the frame 4 extends along a substantially horizontal DC frame plane and comprises a base body 8 which delimits a circular opening 10. In the mounted state of view 2, this circular opening 10 is placed in the extension of a pipe 11 or a well of vertical general axis.
  • the view 2 comprises an opposite outer side of the pipe 11, at the top in the Figures, and an inner side facing the pipe 11, bottom in the Figures.
  • the base body 8 comprises, on the radially inner side of the opening 10, an inner peripheral projection 12, on which is disposed an elastomer seal 14.
  • the outer surface of the seal 14 serves as pad support surface 6 when the latter is in the closed position.
  • the tampon 6 has the general shape of a circular disk whose diameter corresponds approximately to the diameter of the opening 10.
  • the view 2 further comprises at its periphery a hinge 16 which connects the buffer 6 to the base body 8 and ensures the articulation of the buffer 6 relative to the frame 4 about the axis XX.
  • the pad 6 can be moved between a closed position in which the pad is generally horizontal ( Figure 1 ) and a maximum open position in which the buffer 6 is tilted about 130 ° from its closed position, the buffer 6 can also occupy an open locking position in which it achieves an angle of between 90 ° and About 110 ° from its closed position ( Figure 2 ).
  • the hinge 16 can assume a closure configuration as well as various opening configurations including an open blocking configuration, which correspond to the aforementioned positions of the buffer 6.
  • the hinge 16 comprises a frame knuckle 18, integral with the frame 4, and a knuckle of buffer 20, integral with the pad 6.
  • the buffer knuckle 20 consists of a protrusion 22 of the buffer 6 which extends parallel to the plane of the buffer 6 and which is terminated by a pivot 24.
  • the frame knuckle 18 includes an outer recess 19 which is open towards the outer side and which includes first 30, second 32 and third areas 34.
  • the first domain 30 is adjacent to the aperture 10 and is adapted to receive a portion of the protrusion 22 adjacent to the pad 6, when the pad is in its closed position.
  • the second domain 32 extends away from the first domain 30 and comprises a bottom profile 38 in the form of a partial cylinder with a circular section whose axis coincides with the axis X-X.
  • This bottom profile 38 forms a camming hinge surface for the pivot 24.
  • the third domain 34 is disposed between the first 30 and the second 32 domains.
  • This third area 34 comprises a through opening of knuckle 40.
  • This opening 40 is adapted to receive the pivot 24 when the hinge 16 is in its open blocking configuration ( Figure 2 ).
  • the through opening 40 extends on the inner side of the hinge surface 38.
  • the through opening 40 forms, at the interface between the three areas 30, 32, 34, two planar blocking surfaces 42, 44 which extend vertically and parallel to the axis XX and which block the buffer 6 in the open blocking position so that it can not close inadvertently.
  • the hinge 16 is known per se, and is described in more detail in the aforementioned document EP-B-391,825 .
  • a receiving recess 50 is formed in the frame knuckle 18, the receiving recess 50 having an attached plug 52.
  • the receiving recess 50 is disposed on the inside of the through opening 40, adjacent thereto, so that the through opening 40 opens into this inner recess 50.
  • the recess 50 is delimited on the one hand by a peripheral wall 54 which extends parallel to the wall of the through opening 40 and which surrounds the latter and on the other hand by a bottom wall 56 extending parallel to the DC plan.
  • the plug 52 comprises a peripheral wall 60 and, disposed approximately halfway up it, a central membrane 62.
  • the peripheral wall 60 is elastically and sealingly applied against the peripheral wall 54 of the receiving recess 50 , and all around it. It should be noted that the peripheral wall 60 is slightly compressed by the peripheral wall 54. This peripheral wall 60 forms a passage 64 extending from the through opening 40 inwards.
  • the central membrane 62 is flexible and extends substantially parallel to the plane CC over the entire cross section of the passage 64.
  • the central membrane 62 comprises a median slot 66 which divides the membrane 62 into two sealing lips 68, each of the lips n being integral with the peripheral wall 60 only by one bank.
  • Each sealing lip 68 is movable in bending about an axis YY, respectively ZZ, between a closed position ( Figure 1 ) and a crossing position ( Figure 2 ).
  • the sealing lips 68 are spaced from one another and allow the passage of dirt, such as chippings 70.
  • central membrane 62 is arranged in such a way that the pivot 24 extends at a distance d from it when the hinge 16 is in its opening and locking configuration.
  • the outer part of the peripheral wall 60 and the central membrane 62 define a dirt tank in which the chippings 70 accumulate, for example.
  • the plug 52 is manufactured economically, preferably in one piece, by molding elastically deformable material.
  • a particularly suitable material is, for example, an elastomer such as EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene copolymer) or SBR (styrene-butadiene rubber).
  • EPDM ethylene-propylene-diene copolymer
  • SBR styrene-butadiene rubber
  • the plug material has a Shore hardness of between 50 ° and 70 °.
  • the manhole according to the invention operates as follows.
  • the pivot 24 extends in the upper part of the frame knuckle 18 and the pad 6 extends generally horizontally.
  • the chippings 70 which are introduced into the frame knuckle 18 from the outside are arranged on the membrane 62 in the dirt tank and form a pile whose height h is greater than the distance d .
  • the sealing lips 68 are in their closed position.
  • the pivot 24 enters the through opening 40 of the third area 34 and is applied to the blocking surfaces 42, 44 to block the pad 6 in this position. opening.
  • the sealing lips 68 are closed under the action of their own elasticity and ensure new tightness.
  • the invention also has application in the field of hatches intended to close technical inspection chambers of underground cable networks when the closing buffers are articulated and that it is desired to prevent the penetration, by the hinge, of rainwater inside these technical chambers.
