Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of toilets.
  • a mounting piece on the one hand a member with two parallel arms provided with armrests, integral with a transverse connecting axis and, secondly, a bezel, on a toilet bowl.
  • It also relates to an assembly consisting of such a mounting piece, a member with two parallel arms provided with armrests, secured to a transverse connecting axis and a toilet seat provided with a trunnion. .
  • the arms are telescopic and can retract downward, in front of the bowl, to release access to a person in a wheelchair, for example.
  • This document describes a mounting piece having all the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • These arms are integral with a transverse axis of connection, which is engaged in a mounting part which comprises a generally flat plate, intended to be fixed on a horizontal upper surface of the bowl, a transverse edge of this plate being shaped in step receiving and guiding in rotation on itself said transverse axis.
  • This bearing is open downward and has, in a way, a U-shaped section reversed. This opening thus opens above the bowl, perpendicular to its upper face.
  • such a structure multiplies the number of recesses in which the dirt can be housed and accumulate, so that they are particularly difficult to dislodge.
  • the present invention aims to solve these problems, by proposing a mounting piece in which the organs it receives are easy to set up and remove, while facilitating their maintenance and cleaning.
  • a mounting piece on the one hand, a member with two parallel arms provided with armrests, integral with a transverse connecting axis and, secondly, a telescope, on a toilet bowl, which comprises a generally flat plate, intended to be fixed on a horizontal upper surface of the bowl, a transverse edge of this plate being shaped as a receiving bearing and rotational guide on itself of said transverse axis .
  • this piece is essentially characterized by the characterizing part of claims 1.
  • the bearing Due to the fact that the bearing has an open section is formed of "C", whose opening is directed towards the plate, parallel to the plane in which it is contained, it is not necessary to separate the plate of the bowl for be able to access the transverse axis. On the contrary, its extraction can be done simply by the opening which communicates with the top of the plate.
  • cover piece covers the assembly, forms a retaining means for the axis in the bearing, and its gutter serves as a rotational bearing for the trunnion of the bezel.
  • the present invention also relates to an assembly consisting of a mounting piece as described above, a member with two parallel arms provided with armrests, integral with a transverse linkage axis and a telescope. toilet with a trunnion.
  • said transverse axis is in one piece.
  • said transverse axis consists of two distinct parts, connectable to each other.
  • these toilets comprise a bowl 1 fixed to the ground S, which is surmounted transversely, in its rear part, by a water reservoir 3. It receives a telescope 2, liftable around a transverse axis in the form of a trunnion .
  • these armrests constitute, for a person with reduced mobility and / or elderly, an aid to the passage to the station sitting on the telescope, without risk of falling. In the same way, these armrests facilitate the transition to standing.
  • the arms 4 referred to above are integral with a transverse connecting axis which bears the reference 40. Halfway along this axis extends radially, a finger 41. It is oriented parallel to the arms 4.
  • This axis is intended to be placed transversely on the bowl, slightly behind the axis of articulation of the telescope.
  • a plate 6 which is part of the mounting part according to the invention.
  • the plate is intended to be positioned on the horizontal upper surface 10 of the bowl, entered the aforementioned tank 3 and the opening O of said bowl.
  • this plate occupies the place generally used to fix the telescope on the toilet bowl.
  • the plate 6 for example metal, consists of a plate of generally rectangular shape, with longitudinal sides 60 and a rear transverse edge 61 facing the reservoir 3.
  • This edge is shaped as a bearing 62 of open cross section, generally C-shaped, the opening V opens above the plate, parallel to the plane P in which the latter is contained.
  • the dimensions of the bearing 62 are determined so as to accommodate at least partially the transverse axis 40 of the member with two parallel arms, while allowing a rotation on itself, without significant play.
  • the width of the plate 6, and therefore of the bearing 62, is at most equal to the length of the axis 40.
  • the upper edge of the bearing 62 is continued by a vertical partition 63, perpendicular to the plate.
  • the plate comprises, meanwhile, not far from its second transverse front edge, a second partition 64 parallel to the previous one.
  • It may be conventional means, such as a screw and nut system, cooperating with the wall of the bowl, through openings provided for this purpose in the plate.
  • the mounting piece according to the invention also comprises a covering piece 7, represented in the upper part of the figure 4 .
  • a channel 70 is formed in its body, which extends transversely and opens on its underside. This channel is shaped as a gutter and communicates with its vertical lateral faces 72 by openings 700 with inverted "U" shaped section.
  • this channel is determined so that it can cap the bearing 62 of the plate, the opposite edges of the openings 700 located on either side of the axis 40 it receives.
  • the width of the piece 7 is slightly greater than that of the plate 6.
  • transverse slots 73 and 74 In the piece 7 are also formed two transverse slots, referenced 73 and 74, whose relative position and dimensions are adapted to come and get on the partitions 63 and 64 of the plate 6, by a movement from top to bottom.
  • the piece 7 "traps" the axis 40, which can not be extracted from the bearing 62.
  • the attachment of the piece 7 on the plate is by snap elastic.
  • its face could be provided with at least one fastener, for example screw, through an opening in the plate, provided for this purpose, and intended to engage with the bowl 1.
  • the piece 7 has, in its upper part, a gutter 71 receiving rotation of at least one pin 20 integral with the bezel 2.
  • This channel has a cross section C-shaped and the maximum spacing between the edges of its opening is slightly greater than the diameter of the pin 20, so that it can be easily removed from the channel 71, by a translational movement perpendicular to the trunnion.
  • the part 7 could be hollowed out internally, which would give it the appearance of a box opening towards the top. In this case, it is only its lateral faces 72 which would constitute means of retaining the axis 40 in the bearing 62.
  • This mounting piece has several functions. It serves as a bearing for receiving and guiding rotation of the axis 40 on itself and also serves as a receiving gutter for rotation of the pin 20 integral with the telescope.
  • the axis 40 can be extracted from the plate 6 by a movement directed towards the opening V of the bearing 62.
  • the front wall of the trough 71 is limited to the presence of two identical studs 75 spaced apart from each other, but sufficient to ensure the setting and rotation on itself of a trunnion 20 not shown.
  • the plate 6 is significantly simpler than that which has been shown in the figure 4 .
  • Its bearing 62 continues with a wing 630 horizontal and generally parallel to the plate.
  • This wing is cut, so as to form a pair of shoulders 631 which extend parallel to the transverse free edge of the wing. The function will be explained later.
  • the plate 6 is also provided with two oblong openings 65 which allow its attachment to the bowl by any appropriate means.
  • the parallel arm member 4 here consists of a transverse axis formed of two distinct parts 400 and 400 'connectable to each other.
  • the free end of the portion 400 is provided with a cylindrical stud 401 intended to engage in a complementary opening 401 'provided in the other part 400', so that when they cooperate one in the other, one then constitutes one and the same transverse axis.
  • this structure allows a rotation on itself of each of the parts 400 and 400 ', independently of the other.
  • Each of the parts 400 and 400 ' is equipped with a finger 41 which limits the rotation of the assembly inside the bearing 62, since they are intended to bear against the shoulders 631 above.
  • the arms 4 and the telescope 2 can be immobilized in a position beyond the vertical, without need to be in support against a vertical wall (wall or front of the tank).
  • this part comprises a channel 70 which has a circular cross section, of complementary shape of the two parts 400 and 400 'of the transverse axis.
  • a radial complementary opening 75 allows the passage of the fingers 41 mentioned above.
  • FIG 8 To the figure 8 is represented a variant toilet equipped with the mounting part according to the invention, the two arms 4 being each provided with a transverse support tab 42 directed towards the second arm.
  • This tab is positioned to come to rest on the rim of the bowl 1 when the arms occupy a horizontal position.
  • these tabs are in one piece with the arms 42.
  • the underside of the bezel is provided, in known manner, support pads 21 intended to rest on the bowl 1 when the telescope occupies a horizontal position.
  • These pads here have the shape of a hook, whose opening is directed towards the pin 20.
  • references A and B are symbolized two positions of the arms 4 respectively in a position close to the vertical X-X 'and in another position, in support, against the tank 3 of the toilet. This position is distant from the vertical by an angle ⁇ worth a few degrees.
  • the tabs 42 are arranged relative to the hooks 21 so that when the arms 4 and the bezel 2 are subjected to simultaneous rotation, the hooks interfere with said legs, so that the two objects can move together.
  • FIG. 11 To the figure 11 , is shown an alternative embodiment of the tabs 42.
  • This tab is here secured to a sliding transverse rod 420 whose opposite end is raised upwardly to form a stop.
  • the lug 42 itself is preserved by a damping pad 43. By sliding the rod 420, it is possible selectively to bring the lug 42 to bear or not against the top of the bowl.
  • this tab 42 is rotatably provided relative to the arm 4, as shown by the arrow f.
  • Mounting means of known type have not been shown here, for the sake of simplification.
  • the free end of the arm 4 is formed in two parallel wings 44, separated by a space 46 between which the end 500 engages.
  • An axis 45 integral with the two wings 44, passes through the light 501 and ensures a stable position to the armrest.
