Description

La présente invention se rapporte au domaine des piscines hors sol. Plus précisément, elle concerne une structure pour une telle piscine hors sol, ainsi qu'une piscine hors sol comportant cette structure.The present invention relates to the field of aboveground pools. More specifically, it relates to a structure for such an above ground pool, and an above ground pool comprising this structure.

De manière connue, une piscine hors sol comporte généralement une structure, à l'intérieur de laquelle est fixé un film étanche, généralement appelé « liner », délimitant un bassin. Lorsque ce bassin est plein, l'eau qui s'y trouve exerce une poussée centrifuge, que la structure a pour fonction de prendre en charge. Les structures remplissant ces fonctions efficacement sont, à l'heure actuelle, complexes, onéreuses, difficiles à monter et à démonter. Un exemple d'une telle structure est connu de EP-A-0 736 650 et comporte des parois résultant de l'empilement de traverses massives, qui peuvent être en bois, la solidarisation des traverses d'une paroi et des traverses de la paroi suivante mettant en oeuvre des moyens d'assemblage complexes et onéreux. En outre, ces traverses sont lourdes et onéreuses.In known manner, an aboveground pool generally comprises a structure, inside which is fixed a waterproof film, generally called "liner", delimiting a basin. When this pool is full, the water in it exerts a centrifugal thrust, that the structure has the function of taking charge. Structures fulfilling these functions effectively are, at present, complex, expensive, difficult to assemble and disassemble. An example of such a structure is known from EP-A-0 736 650 and comprises walls resulting from the stacking of solid crosspieces, which may be of wood, the joining of the crosspieces of a wall and crosspieces of the following wall using complex and expensive assembly means. In addition, these sleepers are heavy and expensive.

L'invention a au moins pour but qu'une structure pour piscine hors sol puisse être simple tout en restant capable de résister aux sollicitations auxquelles une piscine hors sol est normalement soumise, et notamment à la poussée centrifuge exercée par l'eau présente dans cette piscine.The invention aims at least an aboveground pool structure can be simple while remaining able to withstand the stresses to which an above ground pool is normally subject, including the centrifugal thrust exerted by the water present in this swimming pool.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une structure de piscine hors sol, cette structure comportant des traverses sensiblement jointives formant par empilement des parois consécutives, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte au moins une ceinture de renforcement qui passe dans certaines desdites traverses et qui comprend des montants et des tirants dont chacun passe dans l'une des traverses et solidarise deux montants successifs l'un à l'autre.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is an aboveground pool structure, this structure comprising substantially contiguous crosspieces forming, by stacking consecutive walls, characterized in that it comprises at least one reinforcement belt which passes into some of said sleepers. and which comprises amounts and tie rods each of which passes in one of the sleepers and secures two successive amounts to one another.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques avantageuses, cette structure incorpore les caractéristiques de l'une ou l'autre des revendications 2 à 12.According to other advantageous features, this structure incorporates the features of one or the other of claims 2 to 12.

L'invention a également pour objet une piscine hors sol, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comporte une structure telle que définie ci-dessus et un film étanche qui délimite un bassin de réception d'eau et dont une portion périphérique est fixée à la structure.The invention also relates to an aboveground pool, characterized in that it comprises a structure as defined above and a waterproof film which delimits a water receiving basin and a peripheral portion is fixed to the structure .

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en se référant aux dessins annexés, parmi lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une piscine hors sol conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 2 est une vue éclatée, en perspective et avec arrachement partiel, de la partie inférieure d'une structure de support constitutive de la piscine de la figure 1 et également conforme à l'invention ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue éclatée, en perspective, de la partie supérieure de la structure de support de la figure 2 ;
  • la figure 4 est une coupe partielle selon le plan IV et dans le sens des flèches F4 à la figure 3 ; et
  • la figure 5 est une vue éclatée analogue à la figure 2 pour une structure conforme à un second mode de réalisation de l'invention.
The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given solely by way of example and with reference to the appended drawings, among which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of an above ground pool according to the invention;
  • Figure 2 is an exploded view, in perspective and partially broken away, of the lower part of a support structure constituting the pool of Figure 1 and also according to the invention;

  • Figure 4 is a partial section along the plane IV and in the direction of the arrows F 4 in Figure 3; and
  • Figure 5 is an exploded view similar to Figure 2 for a structure according to a second embodiment of the invention.

Sur la figure 1, une piscine hors sol 1 comporte un film étanche 2 encore appelé « liner », ainsi qu'une structure de support 3, qui repose sur le sol S. Cette structure 3 comporte douze parois 4, qui se succèdent et qui sont décalées angulairement les unes des autres, de manière à former un polygone régulier. Le film étanche 2 comporte une portion périphérique 5, au centre de laquelle il comprend une portion centrale 6 formant un fond et reposant sur le sol S comme la structure 3. La portion périphérique 5 est sensiblement tubulaire. Elle est fixée sur les parois 4 de la structure 3 et délimite latéralement un bassin 7 destiné à recevoir l'eau de la piscine.In FIG. 1, an aboveground pool 1 comprises a waterproof film 2 also called a "liner", as well as a support structure 3, which rests on the ground S. This structure 3 comprises twelve walls 4, which follow one another and which are angularly offset from each other, so as to form a regular polygon. The sealed film 2 comprises a peripheral portion 5, in the center of which it comprises a central portion 6 forming a bottom and resting on the ground S as the structure 3. The peripheral portion 5 is substantially tubular. It is fixed on the walls 4 of the structure 3 and laterally delimits a basin 7 for receiving water from the pool.

Ainsi qu'on peut le voir aux figures 2 et 3, la structure 3 résulte de l'assemblage de diverses pièces, parmi lesquelles il y a des montants identiques 8, des traverses 9, des tirants 10, des plaques 11 et divers organes d'assemblage décrits plus en détail plus loin. Chaque montant 8 comprend un pied 12, dans deux trous duquel sont soudées deux tiges montantes 13. Le pied 12 comporte une plaque qui est destinée à reposer sur le sol et dont deux ailes 14 sont angulairement décalées l'une de l'autre. Chaque aile 14 est pourvue de deux rebords opposés et sensiblement parallèles 15, avec lesquels elle délimite une goulotte 16 de positionnement d'une traverse 9 inférieure.As can be seen in Figures 2 and 3, the structure 3 results from the assembly of various parts, among which there are identical amounts 8, sleepers 9, tie rods 10, plates 11 and various organs d assembly described in more detail below. Each upright 8 comprises a foot 12, in two holes of which are welded two upright rods 13. The foot 12 comprises a plate which is intended to rest on the ground and two wings 14 are angularly offset from one another. Each wing 14 is provided with two opposite and substantially parallel edges 15, with which it defines a chute 16 for positioning a lower cross member 9.

Chaque traverse 9 est un profilé creux, extrudé en un matériau composite comprenant du polychlorure de vinyle, des morceaux de bois de renforcement noyés et du titane, qui sont mélangés. Un exemple de ce matériau composite ayant donné de très bons résultats contient environ 49% en volume de bois, environ 49% en volume de chlorure de vinyle et environ 2% en volume de titane. En variante, les traverses peuvent être moulées, de préférence dans un matériau du même type. D'autres matériaux peuvent aussi être utilisés.Each cross member 9 is a hollow profile, extruded into a composite material comprising polyvinyl chloride, embedded wood reinforcing pieces and titanium, which are mixed. An example of this composite material having given very good results contains about 49% by volume of wood, about 49% by volume of vinyl chloride and about 2% by volume of titanium. Alternatively, the sleepers may be molded, preferably of a material of the same type. Other materials can also be used.

Chaque traverse 9 comporte quatre parois externes, à savoir une paroi inférieure 17, une paroi supérieure 18, une paroi latérale 19 et une autre paroi latérale 19, qui forment ensemble un tube à section rectangulaire. Chaque traverse 9 délimite plusieurs passages longitudinaux 21, que des cloisons internes 22 séparent les uns des autres et dont chacun débouche à ses deux extrémités du fait de l'absence de paroi d'extrémité.Each crosspiece 9 has four outer walls, namely a bottom wall 17, an upper wall 18, a side wall 19 and another side wall 19, which together form a rectangular section tube. Each cross member 9 delimits several longitudinal passages 21, which internal partitions 22 separate from each other and each of which opens at both ends due to the absence of end wall.

Sauf lorsqu'elle fait partie d'une traverse 9 inférieure, la paroi inférieure 17 porte trois nervures longitudinales et parallèles d'emboîtement 23. Sauf lorsqu'elle fait partie d'une des traverses 9 supérieures, la paroi supérieure 18 porte deux nervures longitudinales et parallèles d'emboîtement 24, qui sont complémentaires des nervures 23 d'une autre traverse, c'est-à-dire à même de s'emboîter entre ces nervures 23 afin d'accoupler deux traverses empilées en les empêchant de se décaler l'une de l'autre perpendiculairement à leurs directions longitudinales. Les nervures 23 et 24 s'arrêtent avant les extrémités de la traverse 9 dont elles font partie, puisque chacune des extrémités des parois inférieure 17 et supérieure 18 définit un méplat extérieur 25. Au niveau des deux méplats 25 de chaque extrémité de chaque traverse 9, des trous coaxiaux 26 pour le passage d'une tige 13 sont percés dans les parois 17 et 18, ainsi que dans les cloisons 22, selon une direction sensiblement verticale.Except when it is part of a lower cross member 9, the lower wall 17 carries three longitudinal and parallel interlocking ribs 23. Except when it is part of one of the upper crosspieces 9, the upper wall 18 carries two longitudinal ribs and parallel interlocking 24, which are complementary ribs 23 of another cross, that is to say able to fit between these ribs 23 to couple two cross stacked preventing them from shifting l one of the other perpendicular to their longitudinal directions. The ribs 23 and 24 stop before the ends of the cross member 9 of which they form part, since each of the ends of the lower 17 and upper 18 walls defines an outer flat surface 25. At the two flats 25 of each end of each cross member 9 , coaxial holes 26 for the passage of a rod 13 are drilled in the walls 17 and 18, as well as in the partitions 22, in a substantially vertical direction.

Chaque tirant 10 se présente sous la forme d'une plaque métallique allongée, dont chaque extrémité est percée d'un trou 27 pour le passage d'une tige 13.Each tie 10 is in the form of an elongated metal plate, each end of which is pierced with a hole 27 for the passage of a rod 13.

Les organes d'assemblage précités comprennent également des plaquettes 28, dont chacune est percée de trous 29 chacun pour le passage d'une tige 13.The aforementioned assembling members also comprise plates 28, each of which is pierced with holes 29 each for the passage of a rod 13.

Les pieds 12 se trouvent aux coins de la structure 3, une fois que celle-ci est assemblée. Chaque paroi 4 résulte de l'empilement de plusieurs traverses 9 qui sont disposées horizontalement lorsque la piscine est montée sur un sol plan et horizontal. Les traverses 9 d'une même paroi 4 sont toutes enfilées à la fois sur une tige 13 d'un pied 12 et sur une tige 13 du pied 12 suivant.The feet 12 are at the corners of the structure 3, once it is assembled. Each wall 4 results from the stacking of several sleepers 9 which are arranged horizontally when the pool is mounted on a flat and horizontal floor. The sleepers 9 of the same wall 4 are all threaded on both a shank 13 of a foot 12 and a shank 13 of the foot 12 following.

Chaque plaquette 28 est enfilée sur les deux tiges 13 d'un même pied 12 et a pour fonction de relier et de solidariser ces deux tiges 13. Plus précisément, une plaquette 28 évite que les deux tiges 13 d'un montant 8 ne s'écartent l'une de l'autre sous l'effet des efforts de traction exercés par les tirants 10 dans des directions parallèles aux traverses 9. Les plaquettes 28 travaillant en traction. Plusieurs plaquettes 28 équipent un même pied 12. Elles sont espacées verticalement les unes des autres, puisque chacune d'elle est disposée entre deux traverses 9 l'une sur l'autre d'une paroi 4 et entre deux traverses 9 l'une sur l'autre de la paroi 4 suivante, au niveau de certains méplats 25 de ces traverses 9.Each plate 28 is threaded onto the two rods 13 of the same foot 12 and has the function of connecting and securing these two rods 13. More specifically, a plate 28 prevents the two rods 13 of an amount 8 is s' away from each other under the effect of the tensile forces exerted by the tie rods 10 in parallel directions to the crosspieces 9. The plates 28 working in tension. Several plates 28 equip the same foot 12. They are spaced vertically from each other, since each of them is arranged between two cross members 9 one on the other of a wall 4 and between two cross members 9 one on the other of the following wall 4, at the level of certain flats 25 of these sleepers 9.

Comme chaque traverse 9, chaque tirant 10 est enfilé à la fois sur une tige 13 d'un pied 12 et sur une tige 13 du pied 12 suivant, de manière à solidariser ces deux pieds entre eux. Chaque tirant 10 passe dans une traverse 9 et s'étend sur sensiblement toute sa longueur, puisqu'il est disposé dans l'un des passages 21 de cette traverse 9.Like each crosspiece 9, each tie 10 is threaded both on a rod 13 of a foot 12 and on a rod 13 of the foot 12 next, so as to secure these two feet together. Each tie rod 10 passes through a cross member 9 and extends over substantially its entire length, since it is arranged in one of the passages 21 of this crosspiece 9.

Certaines traverses 9 peuvent ne pas renfermer un tirant 10. Tel est le cas notamment des traverses 9 supérieures.Some sleepers 9 may not contain a tie 10. This is particularly the case of the upper cross 9.

En revanche, les traverses 9 du premier étage renferment toutes un tirant 10 faisant partie d'une ceinture de renforcement, qui comprend les tirants 10 de cet étage, les pieds 12 et les plaquettes 28 disposées au dessus des méplats 25 des traverses de cet étage.On the other hand, the crosspieces 9 of the first floor all contain a tie rod 10 forming part of a reinforcing belt, which comprises the tie rods 10 of this stage, the feet 12 and the plates 28 disposed above the flats 25 of the crosspieces of this floor. .

Une autre ceinture de renforcement passe également dans les traverses 9 du deuxième étage, dans les traverses 9 du troisième étage et dans les traverses 9 du cinquième étage.Another reinforcing belt also passes through the sleepers 9 of the second floor, the sleepers 9 of the third floor and the sleepers 9 of the fifth floor.

Dans l'exemple représenté, les autres étages de traverses 9 ne sont pas pourvus d'une ceinture de renforcement. Les différentes ceintures de renforcement de la structure 3 sont semblables et ont en commun les pieds 12. Lorsque le bassin 7 est plein, l'eau qui s'y trouve exerce une poussée centrifuge prise en charge principalement par ces ceintures de renforcement, qui sont alors sollicitées en traction. Un cerclage ou frettage continu du bassin de la piscine est obtenu au niveau de chaque ceinture, les efforts dirigés vers l'extérieur étant repris par la succession des éléments 10, 13 et 28.In the example shown, the other stages of sleepers 9 are not provided with a reinforcing belt. The various reinforcement belts the structure 3 are similar and have the feet in common 12. When the basin 7 is full, the water therein exerts a centrifugal thrust supported mainly by these reinforcing belts, which are then urged in traction. Continuous strapping or hooping of the pool basin is obtained at each belt, the forces directed outwards being taken up by the succession of the elements 10, 13 and 28.

En haut des parois 4, un organe 30 de positionnement de deux traverses 9 supérieures consécutives l'une par rapport à l'autre est enfilé sur les deux tiges 13 de chaque montant 8 et repose sur ces traverses supérieures 9. Chaque organe 30 a globalement la même forme qu'un pied 12 et délimite donc deux goulottes de positionnement 30A qui sont semblables aux goulottes 16, qui ont une fonction semblable à ces dernières mais qui sont tournées vers le bas et non vers le haut.At the top of the walls 4, a member 30 for positioning two upper crosspieces 9 consecutive relative to each other is threaded on the two rods 13 of each upright 8 and rests on these upper crosspieces 9. Each member 30 has globally the same shape as a foot 12 and therefore defines two positioning chutes 30A which are similar to chutes 16, which have a function similar to the latter but which are turned downwards and not upwards.

Ainsi, les goulottes 16 et 30A permettent de contrôler l'orientation angulaire relative de deux parois 4 adjacentes, au niveau de leurs traverses respectives inférieures et supérieures. Les nervures 23 et 24 assurent par ailleurs l'orientation des traverses intermédiaires.Thus, the chutes 16 and 30A make it possible to control the relative angular orientation of two adjacent walls 4, at their respective lower and upper cross members. The ribs 23 and 24 also provide the orientation of intermediate sleepers.

En pratique l'angle entre les ailes 14 du pied ou sabot 12 est choisi en fonction du nombre de parois 4. Il en est de même de l'angle entre les ailes de l'organe 30. Dans le cas d'une structure à douze côtés réguliers, il est choisi égal à 30°.In practice the angle between the flanges 14 of the foot or shoe 12 is chosen as a function of the number of walls 4. It is the same for the angle between the wings of the member 30. In the case of a structure with twelve regular sides, it is chosen equal to 30 °.

Au niveau de son extrémité supérieure, la structure 3 comporte une margelle 31, qui repose sur les parois 4 et dans laquelle se succèdent les plaques 11. Deux plaques 11 successives sont serrées entre deux plaquettes d'assemblage 32A et 32B, que des boulons 33 solidarisent l'une à l'autre. L'extrémité supérieure de chaque tige 13 est percée d'un trou axial et taraudé 34. Une vis 35 y est vissée et serre les différents éléments qui sont empilés sur le pied 12 du montant comprenant cette tige 13.At its upper end, the structure 3 comprises a lip 31, which rests on the walls 4 and in which successive plates 11. Two successive plates 11 are clamped between two assembly plates 32A and 32B, which bolts 33 solidarize one to the other. The upper end of each rod 13 is pierced with an axial and threaded hole 34. A screw 35 is screwed and clamps the various elements which are stacked on the foot 12 of the amount comprising this rod 13.

Des caches d'angle 36 sont avantageusement disposés à chaque angle de la structure 3, du côté extérieur.Corner covers 36 are advantageously arranged at each corner of the structure 3, on the outside.

A l'intérieur de la structure 3, et plus précisément entre cette structure 3 et le film 2, des bandes par exemple adhésives et souples ou d'autres éléments de protection analogues peuvent recouvrir les parties saillantes de la structure 3 de manière à éviter que ces parties saillantes puissent endommager le film 2.Inside the structure 3, and more precisely between this structure 3 and the film 2, strips, for example adhesive and flexible or other similar protective elements can cover the projecting parts of the structure 3 so as to avoid that these protruding parts can damage the film 2.

Dans l'exemple représenté, les parois 4 sont au nombre de 12. Il va toutefois de soi qu'il peut y avoir plus ou moins de douze parois 4, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.In the example shown, the walls 4 are 12 in number. However, it goes without saying that there may be more or less than twelve walls 4, without departing from the scope of the invention.

Toujours dans l'exemple représenté, chaque montant 8 comporte deux tiges 13 reliées par des plaquettes 28, ce qui est avantageux. On peut toutefois envisager que chaque montant ne comporte qu'une seule tige sur laquelle sont enfilés les traverses 9 et les tirants 10 de deux parois 4 adjacentes. Les plaquettes 28 ne sont alors pas nécessaires.Still in the example shown, each upright 8 comprises two rods 13 connected by plates 28, which is advantageous. However, it can be envisaged that each upright has only one rod on which are threaded the sleepers 9 and tie rods 10 of two adjacent walls 4. The platelets 28 are then not necessary.

Dans le second mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté à la figure 5, les éléments analogues à ceux du premier mode de réalisation portent des références identiques. Dans ce qui suit, on ne décrit que ce qui distingue ce mode de réalisation du précédent. Dans ce mode de réalisation les traverses 9 sont plus courtes que dans le mode de réalisation précédent et s'arrêtent avant la zone dans laquelle sont disposées les plaquettes 28. En d'autres termes, les traverses 9 sont dépourvues de trous 26 et les tiges 13 du montant 8 adjacent traversent uniquement les trous 27 des tirants 10 qui font saillie au-delà des extrémités voisines des traverses 9.In the second embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 5, elements similar to those of the first embodiment bear identical references. In what follows, only what distinguishes this embodiment from the previous one is described. In this embodiment the sleepers 9 are shorter than in the previous embodiment and stop before the area in which the wafers 28 are arranged. In other words, the sleepers 9 are devoid of holes 26 and the stems 13 of the adjacent upright 8 pass through only the holes 27 of the tie rods 10 which protrude beyond the adjacent ends of the crosspieces 9.

Deux tirants 10 sont disposés dans chaque traverse 9 engagée dans le pied 12. En pratique, deux tirants sont engagés dans des passages longitudinaux 21 des traverses 9 des quatre rangées de traverses inférieures, ce qui assure une grande stabilité mécanique à la structure de piscine ainsi réalisée.Two tie rods 10 are arranged in each crosspiece 9 engaged in the foot 12. In practice, two tie rods are engaged in longitudinal passages 21 of the crosspieces 9 of the four rows of lower crosspieces, which ensures a high mechanical stability to the pool structure and performed.

En variante, seul un tirant 10 peut être disposé dans le passage longitudinal 21 de la ou des traverses 9 inférieures. Selon une autre variante, trois ou plus de trois tirants peuvent être engagés dans les passages de la ou des traverses 9 inférieures. En pratique, le nombre de tirants 10 est adapté en fonction de la taille de la piscine et de la rigidité recherchée pour sa structure.Alternatively, only a tie rod 10 may be disposed in the longitudinal passage 21 of the or 9 lower sleepers. According to another variant, three or more tie rods may be engaged in the passages of the or 9 lower sleepers. In practice, the number of tie rods 10 is adapted according to the size of the pool and the rigidity sought for its structure.

Pour les traverses situées au-dessus des quatre traverses inférieures, au moins un tirant 10 est disposé dans chaque traverse.For the sleepers located above the four lower cross members, at least one tie rod 10 is disposed in each crossmember.

Des caches d'angles intérieurs non représentés sont disposés à la jonction des faces intérieures des parois 4, ceci afin d'éviter tout risque d'endommagement du film étanche 2. De tels caches peuvent également être utilisés avec la structure du premier mode de réalisation.Covers of interior angles not shown are arranged at the junction of the inner faces of the walls 4, this to avoid any risk of damage to the sealing film 2. Such caches can also be used with the structure of the first embodiment .
