Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de sécurité visant à limiter l'accès de zones délimitées, telles que des piscines et autres plans d'eau, aux personnes non autorisées et notamment les jeunes enfants et/ou animaux, afin de prévenir les risques de noyade.The present invention relates to a safety device for limiting the access of delimited areas, such as swimming pools and other bodies of water, to unauthorized persons and especially young children and / or animals, in order to prevent the risks of drowning. .

L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse, mais non exclusive, dans le domaine des piscines et autres plans d'eau.The invention finds a particularly advantageous, but not exclusive, application in the field of swimming pools and other bodies of water.

Des normes de sécurité autour des bassins sont devenues obligatoires et la sécurité constitue un critère prioritaire afin d'éviter les accidents de piscines et les noyades.Safety standards around the basins have become mandatory and safety is a priority criterion to prevent pool accidents and drowning.

Il existe de nombreuses technologies destinées à sécuriser l'accès aux piscines. En effet, la piscine peut être pourvue d'éléments de couverture de sécurité ou de dispositifs d'accrochage d'abris, incluant des structures légères ou des vérandas. II est connu également d'équiper la piscine de système d'alarme conçu pour surveiller les abords de la piscine ou les agitations de la ligne d'eau de celle-ci ; ces systèmes connus avertissent l'utilisateur par un signal sonore.There are many technologies to secure access to swimming pools. Indeed, the swimming pool can be provided with elements of security cover or devices of attachment of shelters, including light structures or verandas. It is also known to equip the swimming pool with an alarm system designed to monitor the surroundings of the pool or the agitation of the water line thereof; these known systems warn the user by an audible signal.

Cependant, les moyens les plus efficaces sont les barrières physiques empêchant l'accès du bassin.However, the most effective means are the physical barriers preventing access to the basin.

Outre de répondre aux normes de sécurité, il est nécessaire de mettre en place une barrière de protection de qualité répondant à un certain esthétisme et à certain coût.In addition to meeting safety standards, it is necessary to set up a quality protective barrier that meets a certain aesthetic and cost.

II est connu, selon le brevet français N° FR 2 844 819 , une barrière mobile ou fixe, démontable et repliable, formée de panneaux séparables, de pieds support et de barreaux charnières pour réaliser l'assemblage. Ce dispositif connu s'adapte aux clôtures fixes et mobiles ainsi qu'aux contours d'une zone à clôturer.It is known, according to the patent French N ° FR 2 844 819 , a movable or fixed barrier, removable and collapsible, formed of separable panels, support legs and hinge bars to achieve the assembly. This known device adapts to fixed and mobile fences as well as the contours of an area to be fenced.

Le problème majeur de ce dispositif connu est la complexité de son assemblage. En effet, les panneaux rigides comportent des oreilles en saillie aptes à être traversées par les barreaux charnières jusqu'au niveau des pieds formant un guide creux. L'assemblage est donc réalisé par l'introduction d'un barreau charnière dans les oreilles décalées de deux panneaux jusqu'à l'intérieur du pied.The major problem of this known device is the complexity of its assembly. Indeed, the rigid panels have projecting lugs adapted to be traversed by the hinge bars to the level of the feet forming a hollow guide. The assembly is thus achieved by the introduction of a hinge bar in the ears offset from two panels to the inside of the foot.

La mise en place d'un tel dispositif, bien qu'il ne nécessite aucun outillage, reste néanmoins susceptible de simplification. De plus, il est indispensable d'être assisté d'une autre personne pour l'assemblage d'un tel dispositif, étant donné qu'il faut maintenir les deux panneaux rigides en vis-à-vis et de faire pénétrer en même temps les barreaux charnières jusqu'aux pieds creux qui servent de guides.The establishment of such a device, although it does not require any tools, remains nevertheless susceptible of simplification. In addition, it is essential to be assisted by another person to assemble such a device, since it is necessary to maintain the two rigid panels vis-a-vis and to penetrate at the same time the hinge bars to hollow feet that serve as guides.

La barrière de protection selon l'invention est constituée de plusieurs modules 1 de barrière associés à des poteaux 2 verticaux qui prennent appui au sol par des pieds support 3 comme le représente la figure 1.The protective barrier according to the invention consists of several barrier modules 1 associated with vertical posts 2 which bear on the ground by support legs 3 as shown in FIG.

La fixation des modules 1 aux poteaux 2 permet une articulation et/ou une rotation de la barrière de sécurité selon l'invention, qui peut ainsi s'adapter aux contours souhaités ou imposés de la zone à protéger telle qu'une piscine (non représentée).Fixing the modules 1 to the posts 2 allows articulation and / or rotation of the safety barrier according to the invention, which can thus adapt to the desired or imposed contours of the area to be protected such as a pool (not shown ).

Les figures 2 et 3 illustrent plus précisément la solidarisation d'un module sur un poteau.Figures 2 and 3 illustrate more precisely the fastening of a module on a pole.

Chaque module de barrière 1 est constitué de deux lices horizontales, supérieure 4A et inférieure 4B ainsi que de plusieurs barreaux 5 perpendiculaires.Each barrier module 1 consists of two horizontal lices, upper 4A and lower 4B and several perpendicular rods 5.

Chaque module 1 est fixé à au moins un poteau 2, de préférence deux poteaux (un de chaque côté) par des moyens d'articulation 6 qui, selon l'invention, d'une part sont encliquetables et d'autre part réalisent une fixation définitive.Each module 1 is fixed to at least one post 2, preferably two posts (one on each side) by hinge means 6 which, according to the invention, are on the one hand snap-fastenable and on the other hand provide a fixation final.

Il est entendu par des moyens d'articulation 6 permettant une fixation définitive, un système d'inviolabilité, où une fois les moyens 6 encliquetés, la liaison poteau / lice, doit être brisée par l'application d'une très grande force afin de pouvoir démonter la barrière.It is understood by hinge means 6 allowing a final fixing, a tamper-proof system, where once the means 6 snapped, the connection post / lice, must be broken by the application of a very great force to ability to disassemble the barrier.

Chacune des lices 4, représentée à la figure 4, comprend des logements 7 à intervalles réguliers aptes à recevoir les barreaux 5 par l'intermédiaire de connecteurs 8.Each of the links 4, represented in FIG. 4, comprises housings 7 at regular intervals able to receive the bars 5 via connectors 8.

Les figures 5 et 6 illustrent schématiquement un connecteur.Figures 5 and 6 schematically illustrate a connector.

Les barreaux 5 s'enclenchent dans les logements 7 grâce à un connecteur 8, et forment un module 1 lorsque la deuxième lice 4A correspondante vient se positionner au-dessus ou au dessous de la première lice 4B contenant les barreaux 5 enclenchés via les connecteurs 8.The bars 5 snap into the housings 7 by means of a connector 8, and form a module 1 when the corresponding second lice 4A is positioned above or below the first lug 4B containing the bars 5 engaged via the connectors 8 .

Chaque connecteur 8 est un tube permettant de réunir de manière permanente à l'aide de clips 9 et d'indexeurs 10, les extrémités des barreaux 5 aux lices 4. Le connecteur 8 inséré dans le logement 7 présente une partie en saillie de la lice 4. Ces clips 9 et indexeurs 10 permettent une sécurité supplémentaire, étant donné qu'une fois le barreau 5 enclenché au travers du connecteur 8 dans le logement 7 de la lice 4, l'enlèvement du barreau 5 du connecteur 8 n'est pas possible.Each connector 8 is a tube for permanently assembling with the aid of clips 9 and indexers 10, the ends of the bars 5 to the lices 4. The connector 8 inserted in the housing 7 has a projecting portion of the lice 4. These clips 9 and indexers 10 provide additional security, since once the bar 5 is engaged through the connector 8 in the housing 7 of the lice 4, the removal of the bar 5 of the connector 8 is not possible.

Les figures 7 à 10 illustrent les moyens d'articulation encliquetable des modules sur les poteaux, selon l'invention.Figures 7 to 10 illustrate the snap-fastening means of the modules on the poles, according to the invention.

Les moyens d'articulation 6 prévus aux extrémités des lices 4, afin de fixer le module 1 au niveau de sa partie inférieure et supérieure, coopèrent avec les moyens d'articulation 6 complémentaires prévus sur les poteaux 2.The hinge means 6 provided at the ends of the lices 4, in order to fix the module 1 at its lower and upper part, cooperate with the complementary articulation means 6 provided on the posts 2.

Les moyens d'articulation 6 sont constitués d'une part d'éléments femelles 11 sur les lices 4 et d'autre part d'éléments mâles 12 placés sur les poteaux 2.The hinge means 6 consist on the one hand of female elements 11 on the links 4 and on the other hand of male elements 12 placed on the posts 2.

L'élément mâle 12 est constitué d'un corps 13 de forme générale quadrangulaire et comprenant sur une de ses faces un téton 14 en deux parties séparées par une fente 15 diamétrale. Des nervures 16 de renforcement sont réalisées à l'intérieur du corps 13.The male element 12 consists of a body 13 of generally quadrangular shape and comprising on one of its faces a nipple 14 in two parts separated by a diametrical slot 15. Reinforcing ribs 16 are made inside the body 13.

Sur un des côtés du corps 13 (perpendiculaire à la face où est disposé ledit téton 14), Il est prévu un picot quart de tour 17 faisant saillie par rapport à une plaque d'appui 18 curviforme sur la face arrière de l'élément mâle 12. Le picot 17 est apte à coopérer avec une lumière 19 (représentée sur la figure 13) prévue sur chaque poteau 2. La fixation de l'élément mâle 12 sur un poteau 2 est décrite ultérieurement.On one of the sides of the body 13 (perpendicular to the face where is disposed said pin 14), there is provided a quarter-turn pin 17 projecting from a bearing plate 18 curviform on the rear face of the male element 12. The pin 17 is adapted to cooperate with a slot 19 (shown in Figure 13) provided on each post 2. The attachment of the male member 12 on a post 2 is described later.

En référence aux figures 9 et 10, l'élément femelle 11 1 (des moyens d'articulation 6 du module 1 sur le poteau 2) est formé d'un premier corps 20 muni d'un orifice 21 apte à recevoir le téton 14 de l'élément mâle 12, et d'un second corps 22 de forme complémentaire à l'intérieur d'une lice creuse 4A ou 4B et donc apte à pénétrer dans l'extrémité de celle-ci et y être maintenue par léger frottement. Le second corps 22 comporte des nervures 23 renforçant sa rigidité.With reference to FIGS. 9 and 10, the female element 11 1 (articulation means 6 of the module 1 on the post 2) is formed of a first body 20 provided with an orifice 21 adapted to receive the nipple 14 of FIG. the male element 12, and a second body 22 of complementary shape inside a hollow lice 4A or 4B and thus able to penetrate into the end thereof and be held there by slight friction. The second body 22 has ribs 23 reinforcing its rigidity.

Avantageusement, le second corps 22 comporte un trou 24 disposé de manière à recevoir le connecteur 8 associé à un barreau 5 (non représentés).Advantageously, the second body 22 has a hole 24 arranged to receive the connector 8 associated with a bar 5 (not shown).

Les éléments mâles 12 et femelles 11 forment ainsi des moyens de fixation articulée par encliquetage des modules 1 sur les poteaux 2.The male elements 12 and female 11 thus form hinged attachment means for snapping the modules 1 on the posts 2.

Les figures 11 et 12 représentent respectivement une vue de dessous d'un module associé à un poteau et une clé selon l'invention.Figures 11 and 12 respectively show a bottom view of a module associated with a pole and a key according to the invention.

Une fois les deux éléments femelle 11 et mâle 12 réunis, il est prévu une clé 25 pour chaque moyen d'articulation encliquetables 6, afin de solidariser définitivement un module 1 à un poteau 2.Once the two female elements 11 and 12 joined male, there is provided a key 25 for each hinge means snap 6, to permanently secure a module 1 to a post 2.

La clé 25 possède une forme par exemple, de vis à tête plate, et comprend un ergot 26 afin de se glisser irréversiblement dans la fente 15 prévue sur le téton 14 de l'élément mâle 12 qui lui-même retient l'élément femelle 11.The key 25 has a shape, for example, of flat-head screws, and comprises a lug 26 to irreversibly slip into the slot 15 provided on the stud 14 of the male element 12 which itself retains the female element 11 .

La figure 13 est une vue en perspective d'une partie d'un poteau et les figures 14 et 15 représentent schématiquement un capuchon de celui-ci.Fig. 13 is a perspective view of a portion of a post and Figs. 14 and 15 schematically show a cap thereof.

Les poteaux 2 sont de longueur prédéterminée correspondant aux modules 1 choisis (hauteur et largeur).The posts 2 are of predetermined length corresponding to the modules 1 chosen (height and width).

On décrit ci-après la fixation d'un élément mâle 12 sur un poteau 2 en référence aux figures 7 et 13.The fixing of a male element 12 on a post 2 is described below with reference to FIGS. 7 and 13.

Sur chaque poteau creux 2, vers ses extrémités respectivement inférieure et supérieure (par rapport au sol) sont prévues des lumières 19, respectivement supérieure et inférieure, sur une empreinte 27 rapportée sur ledit poteau 2.On each hollow post 2, towards its ends respectively lower and upper (relative to the ground) are provided lights 19, respectively upper and lower, on a footprint 27 attached to said post 2.

Chaque lumière 19 est constituée d'une ouverture 28 et d'une encoche 29, toutes deux de forme générale correspondant au picot 17 (en l'occurrence de forme ovale) de l'élément mâle 12. L'encoche 29 est prévue à l'intérieur du poteau 2 sur l'épaisseur de l'empreinte 27. L'ouverture 28 et l'encoche 29 correspondent chacune à une position angulaire du picot 17, sont de forme ovale et en recouvrement partiel. L'axe principal de l'ouverture 28 est sensiblement parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du poteau 2 et celui de l'encoche 29 est décalé angulairement de l'ordre de 90° par rapport à la direction longitudinale du poteau.Each lumen 19 consists of an opening 28 and a notch 29, both of general shape corresponding to the pin 17 (in this case of oval shape) of the male element 12. The notch 29 is provided in FIG. The interior of the post 2 on the thickness of the cavity 27. The opening 28 and the notch 29 each correspond to an angular position of the pin 17, are of oval shape and partial overlap. The main axis of the opening 28 is substantially parallel to the axis longitudinal of the post 2 and that of the notch 29 is offset angularly of the order of 90 ° relative to the longitudinal direction of the post.

L'espace compris entre le picot quart de tour 17 et la plaque d'appui 18 correspond sensiblement à l'épaisseur du poteau 2 qui est creux. La plaque d'appui 18 est de forme complémentaire de la surface externe du poteau 2.The space between the quarter-turn pin 17 and the support plate 18 substantially corresponds to the thickness of the pole 2 which is hollow. The support plate 18 is of complementary shape to the external surface of the post 2.

L'élément mâle 12 est fixé au poteau 2 de la manière suivante.The male member 12 is attached to the post 2 as follows.

L'utilisateur prend d'une main le poteau 2 et de l'autre l'élément mâle 12 et fait pénétrer le picot 17 dans l'ouverture 28 (d'axe principal longitudinal). Il fait ensuite pivoter ledit élément mâle 12, selon un axe transversal au poteau 2, jusqu'à ce que le picot 17 vienne porter contre l'encoche 29. La plaque d'appui 18 présente une relative élasticité pour permettre la rotation de l'élément mâle 12 tout en portant contre la paroi externe du poteau 2.The user takes with one hand the post 2 and the other the male element 12 and penetrates the pin 17 in the opening 28 (main longitudinal axis). It then rotates said male member 12, along an axis transverse to the post 2, until the pin 17 comes to bear against the notch 29. The support plate 18 has a relative elasticity to allow the rotation of the male element 12 while bearing against the outer wall of the post 2.

Il est ainsi possible, une fois les modules de barrière 1 assemblés et solidarisés de manière articulée aux poteaux 2, d'effectuer une rotation et de disposer la barrière de protection selon l'invention de manière à s'adapter à un contour donné ou imposé d'un plan d'eau.It is thus possible, once the barrier modules 1 assembled and hingedly connected to the posts 2, to rotate and dispose the protective barrier according to the invention so as to adapt to a given contour or imposed of a body of water.

Le poteau 2 possède deux extrémités, supérieure et inférieure par rapport au sol. L'extrémité supérieure est recouverte par un capot ou capuchon 30. Le capuchon 30 comporte des chanfreins circulaires 31.The post 2 has two ends, upper and lower relative to the ground. The upper end is covered by a hood or cap 30. The cap 30 has circular chamfers 31.

En référence à la figure 16, l'extrémité inférieure de chaque poteau 2 est conçue pour s'encastrer et se fixer, grâce à des moyens d'immobilisation (non représentés mais de type connu en soi), sur un pied support 3 possédant une base plane 32 de forme, par exemple, triangulaire sur laquelle est fixée un manchon 33 apte à recevoir l'extrémité du poteau 2 correspondant. Les bords ou extrémités de la base 32 peuvent être stylisés et incluent les moyens de solidarisation au sol, tels que des vis par exemple.With reference to FIG. 16, the lower end of each post 2 is designed to fit and fix, thanks to immobilization means (not shown but of a type known per se), on a support leg 3 having a flat base 32 of shape, for example, triangular on which is fixed a sleeve 33 adapted to receive the end of the pole 2 corresponding. The edges or ends of the base 32 may be stylized and include the means of securing to the ground, such as screws for example.

Les lices 4, les barreaux 5, les poteaux 2, les pieds support 3 peuvent être constitués, par exemple, de bois, d'acier soudé ou d'aluminium. Les capuchons 30 peuvent être en métal ou en matériau plastique ou caoutchouc.The lices 4, the bars 5, the posts 2, the support legs 3 may consist of, for example, wood, welded steel or aluminum. The caps 30 may be of metal or plastic or rubber material.

Les moyens d'articulation encliquetables 6, les connecteurs 8, les clés 25 peuvent être conçus en matière plastique par exemple.The snap-fastening hinge means 6, the connectors 8, the keys 25 may be made of plastic, for example.

Le dispositif selon l'invention prévoit également un portillon d'ouverture pour un usage individuel ou à ouverture automatique pour un usage individuel ou collectif. Il est prévu un système de verrouillage du portillon.The device according to the invention also provides an opening gate for individual use or automatic opening for individual or collective use. There is provided a gate locking system.

Il est souhaite de déterminer la forme de l'enclos souhaité ainsi que l'emplacement du portillon avec son système de verrouillage avant de fixer les pieds support 3.It is desired to determine the shape of the desired enclosure and the location of the gate with its locking system before fixing the support feet 3.

Les pieds support 3, solidarisés au sol, sont prêts à immobiliser les poteaux 2 qui eux même sont prêts à recevoir les éléments mâles 12.The support feet 3, secured to the ground, are ready to immobilize the posts 2 which themselves are ready to receive the male elements 12.

Les éléments femelles 11 sont intégrés aux lices 4 avant de positionner les barreaux 5 situés aux extrémités. Les barreaux 5 sont également engagés irréversiblement aux lices 4, grâce au connecteur 8.The female elements 11 are integrated in the lices 4 before positioning the bars 5 at the ends. The bars 5 are also irreversibly engaged to the lices 4, thanks to the connector 8.

Une fois les modules 1 assemblés, ils sont fixés aux poteaux 2 de manière simple et intuitive par encliquetage des éléments respectifs 11 (fixés sur la lice) et 12 (fixés au poteau). Les clés 25 peuvent être glissées dans les moyens d'articulation 6 encliquetable unis permettant une sécurité et une finition supplémentaires.Once assembled modules 1, they are fixed to the posts 2 in a simple and intuitive snap-fastening respective elements 11 (fixed on the list) and 12 (attached to the pole). The keys 25 can be slid into the united snap hinge means 6 allowing additional security and finishing.
