  • the suction head also comprises a flexible sealing flange 8 of elongate shape.
  • Said flexible sealing flange 8 has the main function of unhooking and conveying to the orifice 7 the dust particles or other debris from the surface to be cleaned. This flange 8 is arranged so as to encircle the end of the suction head 3 and thus the non-return valve 6.
  • the hollow head 2 comprises, disposed in its hood and above the suction head 3, a retention grid 10. More particularly, this retention grid 10 is disposed in the hollow head 2 so that the debris and the sucked water systematically pass after their aspiration in the suction head 3 by said grid 10. It is fixed in and to the hollow head 2 for example by clipping.
  • This retaining grid 10 may have a substantially cylindrical shape and more particularly a bell shape whose lower end is open and facing the suction head 3, while the upper end, intended to be turned towards the valve 4, is pierced by orifices so as to pass the flow of sucked water.

  • a prefilter such as the screen 9 thus has the advantage not only of preventing the blocking of the flapper valve by debris within the hollow head 2, but also of solving the problem of fouling. premature filter cartridge pool when it is provided.
  • the cartridge filter is usually installed behind the skimmer of the pool, it filters the water of its impurities thanks to its cartridge in synthetic material.
  • the hollow head 2 also has under its hood a seat 11.
  • the suction ducts 5a, 5b are as shown on the Figures 1 and 2 parallel to each other. They each comprise a lower end 5a1, 5b1 which opens into the hollow head 2 and more particularly at the seat 11, while their upper end 5a2, 5b2 is connected to a common suction pipe (not shown) with a connection three-way 13, for example by means of a flexible suction pipe (not shown).
  • the common suction pipe is intended to be connected to the suction pump of a pool.
  • the ducts 5a, 5b are preferably inclined at an acute angle, preferably of the order of 20 ° to 30 ° and even more preferably of the order of 25 ° relative to the surface to be cleaned.
  • This feature has the advantage of operating the cleaning device 1 in shallow water.

  • the ratio between the width T of the flap valve 4 and the width W of the seat 11 at a section S of said seat and more particularly at a section perpendicular to the bisector B of the faces 11a, 11b of the seat is greater than or equal to 70%, preferably of the order of 75% to 85% and even more preferably of the order of 77% to 80%.
  • This last feature has the advantage that the passage of water in the interstices 12 is reduced, resulting in an increase in the velocity of the sucked water passing through said interstices 12. Therefore, it is not necessary with said device 1 according to the present invention to use a suction pump of high power, that is to say of the order of 600 Watts. A pump with a power of about 100 Watts or less allows the cleaning device to operate. However, small and medium sized pools are often equipped with low power pumps. Said device 1 can thus easily be used in this type of pool.

  • the valve 41, 42 comprises between its first 41a, 42a and 41b, 42b seconds faces a spacer 50 whose length can be adjustable or pre-set.
  • the spacer 50 may correspond to a bar whose size is chosen to obtain the proper spacing and which arises between the two faces 41a and 41b of the valve 41 so as to form a cross member.
  • the spacer 50 is also located between the faces 42a and 42b of the valve 42 so as to form a cross member, but at one of their ends, more precisely at the end opposite the pivot 114.
  • one of the faces of the valve 42 here the face 42b is shorter than the other 42a and the spacer 50 consists of two parts 50a, 50b, so as to be able to assemble the one to the other by fastening means, such as by the screw / nut system 52.
  • the parts 50a and 50b each have orifices 51 able to be juxtaposed in order to receive a fastening means (screws /nut).
  • This feature has the advantage of adapting the width T of the flap valve 41, 42 to allow the use of said device in pools with pumps of different powers.
  • the skilled person will be able to adjust the length of the piece distance depending on the power of the pump that equips the pool to clean.
  • the cleaning device may also be partially or entirely moldable plastic.
  • the hollow head 2 and the flapper valve 4, 41, 42 may be molded in polyurethane.
  • the user will have to connect the connector 13, itself connected to another flexible hose (not shown in the figures) at the pump / skimmer connection or to the brush socket of the swimming pool. Once connected to the pool pump, the pool water will be sucked through the device 1 disposed flat on the surface to be cleaned.
  • the device 1 when the device 1 is connected to the pump of the pool, it will generate a suction at the inlet of the connector 13 causing the suction of water at the orifice 7 of the valve of no return 6 of said device 1. Then the water will rise, still under the suction suction, by the retaining grid 10 also passing through the prefilter 9, as a sieve before going to join the space left vacant under the hood of the hollow head 2.
  • the weight in the hollow head 2 will maintain said device 1 against the ground and subsequently, the high suction of the water flow between the flexible flange 8 and the soil will cause the displacement of aggregates, debris (leaves, sludge particles). Certainly located at the bottom of the pool.
  • the flapper valve 4 covers a large portion of the seat 11, the water passage left vacant 12a will be very narrow, thereby increasing the velocity of the water flowing in said gap 12a.
  • This allows a pool pump of the order of 100 watts or less to animate an automatic cleaning system by which water will then be brought to the pump and pool filter before returning, once "washed” by the classic circuit.
  • valve 4 will be directed to the face 11b of the seat 11 and a new operating cycle will start.
  • the user at the end of operation can easily remove the debris collected on the prefilter 9.
