Description

La présente invention concerne une bouée gonflable pour nageurs et plus particulièrement un perfectionnement pour une bouée se présentant en situation gonflée sous la forme d'une ceinture, comprenant un dispositif de gonflage automatique d'une bouée.The present invention relates to an inflatable buoy for swimmers and more particularly an improvement for a buoy in the situation inflated in the form of a belt, comprising a device for automatically inflating a buoy.

On connaît de nombreux types de bouées gonflables comme par exemple les bouées prégonflées présentes sur les bateaux et que l'on peut jeter à l'eau pour secourir une personne. Cependant, ces bouées présentent de nombreux inconvénients comme le manque de sécurité important puisqu'elles ne sont pas portées en permanence.Many types of inflatable buoys are known, for example pre-inflated buoys on boats which can be thrown into the water to rescue a person. However, these buoys have many disadvantages such as lack of important security since they are not worn permanently.

On connaît également des bouées à gonflage automatique que l'on peut porter mais qui généralement présentent des inconvénients liés à leur utilisation comme la difficulté d'actionner les moyens de gonflage. En effet, les bouées à gonflage automatique, comme les gilets de sauvetage à gonflage automatique, sont généralement commandées par la traction de l'utilisateur sur un anneau ou sur un organe de commande de manière à permettre le déclenchement des moyens de gonflage. Cependant, un tel geste n'est pas forcément naturel et, de plus, il peut provoquer le déplacement de la bouée ou du gilet de sauvetage dans une position inconfortable pour son usager.Also known are inflatable buoys that can be worn but generally have disadvantages associated with their use as the difficulty of operating the inflation means. Indeed, the automatic inflation buoys, such as self-inflating lifejackets, are generally controlled by the traction of the user on a ring or a control member so as to allow the triggering of the inflation means. However, such a gesture is not necessarily natural and, moreover, it can cause the movement of the buoy or lifejacket in an uncomfortable position for its user.

La ceinture gonflable selon l'invention se propose de résoudre les divers inconvénients précités grâce à des moyens de gonflage simples, fiables et commandés par un dispositif permettant une utilisation facile et sûre.The inflatable belt according to the invention proposes to solve the various aforementioned drawbacks with simple inflation means, reliable and controlled by a device for easy and safe use.

Ainsi, la ceinture gonflable pour nageurs du type comprenant au moins une enceinte gonflable pouvant passer d'une position dégonflée à une position gonflée grâce à des moyens de gonflage, caractérisée en ce que lesdits moyens de gonflage sont constitués par une cartouche de gaz sous pression dont le déclenchement permettant le gonflage de la ceinture est commandé par des moyens de commande, lesdits moyens de commande étant constitués par une poignée manuelle pivotante.Thus, the inflatable swimmer belt of the type comprising at least one inflatable enclosure that can pass from a deflated position to an inflated position by means of inflation means, characterized in that said inflation means consist of a pressurized gas cartridge. whose triggering for inflating the belt is controlled by control means, said control means being constituted by a pivoting manual handle.

Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, l'enceinte gonflable se présente sous la forme d'un anneau de forme torique.According to a complementary feature, the inflatable enclosure is in the form of a ring-shaped ring.

Selon une variante de réalisation, l'enceinte gonflable se présente sous la forme d'un anneau de forme torique, dont le profil transversal varie dans ses dimensions et/ ou dans sa forme.According to an alternative embodiment, the inflatable enclosure is in the form of a ring-shaped ring, the transverse profile of which varies in its dimensions and / or in its shape.

Selon une variante préférée, la partie avant de la ceinture présente en position gonflée un volume supérieur au reste de la ceintureAccording to a preferred variant, the front part of the belt has in the inflated position a volume greater than the rest of the belt

Selon une autre caractéristique, la poignée manuelle pivotante ainsi que la cartouche sont montées sur une embrase fixée rigidement à l'enceinte gonflable, tandis que la cartouche et la poignée pivotante sont disposées sensiblement parallèlement, et avantageusement parallèlement au plan général de la ceinture.According to another characteristic, the pivoting manual handle and the cartridge are mounted on an ignition fixed rigidly to the inflatable enclosure, while the cartridge and the pivoting handle are arranged substantially parallel, and preferably parallel to the general plane of the belt.

Ajoutons que selon le mode préféré de réalisation, le pivotement de la poignée se fait par rapprochement de la poignée vers la cartouche.Add that according to the preferred embodiment, the pivoting of the handle is done by bringing the handle towards the cartridge.

La ceinture gonflage selon l'invention portant la référence générale (1) est du type comprenant au moins une enceinte gonflable (2).The inflation belt according to the invention bearing the general reference (1) is of the type comprising at least one inflatable enclosure (2).

La ceinture (1) peut ainsi se présenter selon deux états ou positions, une position dégonflée ou position de repos dans laquelle l'enceinte gonflable est sensiblement vide et la bouée sensiblement plate et repliée, tel qu'illustré figure 1, et une position gonflée où l'enceinte gonflable comporte un gaz sous pression de manière à assurer la flottaison de la bouée et de son utilisateur tel qu'illustré figure 2.The belt (1) can thus be in two states or positions, a deflated position or rest position in which the inflatable chamber is substantially empty and the buoy substantially flat and folded, as illustrated figure 1 , and an inflated position where the inflatable enclosure comprises a gas under pressure so as to ensure the buoyancy of the buoy and its user as illustrated figure 2 .

Le passage de la position de repos vers la position gonflée s'effectue grâce à des moyens de gonflage (MG) sous l'action de moyens de commande (MC). Selon l'invention, lesdits moyens de commande (MC) comportent une poignée manuelle pivotante (6).The transition from the rest position to the inflated position is effected by inflation means (MG) under the action of control means (MC). According to the invention, said control means (MC) comprise a pivoting manual handle (6).

Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'enceinte gonflable (2) se présente sous la forme d'un anneau gonflable et est enveloppée par une enveloppe ou gaine textile (3).According to one embodiment of the invention, the inflatable enclosure (2) is in the form of an inflatable ring and is enveloped by a textile sheath or sheath (3).

Les moyens de gonflage (MG) sont constitués par une cartouche de gaz sous pression (4), comme par exemple une cartouche de dioxyde de carbone, ladite cartouche (4) étant montée sur la bouée (1) et plus particulièrement sur l'enceinte gonflable (2) par l'intermédiaire d'une embase (5) fixée rigidement sur l'enceinte et sur laquelle elle vient se fixer avantageusement de manière amovible.The inflation means (MG) consist of a pressurized gas cartridge (4), such as for example a carbon dioxide cartridge, said cartridge (4) being mounted on the buoy (1) and more particularly on the enclosure inflatable (2) via a base (5) rigidly fixed to the enclosure and on which it is advantageously fixed detachably.

Ladite embase est alors destinée à permettre à la cartouche (4) d'expulser le gaz sous pression à l'intérieur de l'enceinte gonflable (2) lors de son ouverture provoquée par les moyens de commande (MC).Said base is then intended to allow the cartridge (4) to expel the gas under pressure inside the inflatable chamber (2) during its opening caused by the control means (MC).

Les moyens de gonflage (MG) sont commandés par la poignée manuelle pivotante (6) qui constitue ainsi les moyens de commande (MC), ladite poignée étant montée pivotante sur l'embase (5).The inflation means (MG) are controlled by the pivoting manual handle (6) which thus constitutes the control means (MC), said handle being pivotally mounted on the base (5).

Selon le mode de réalisation de l'invention, la cartouche de gaz (4) et la poignée pivotante (6) sont disposées sensiblement parallèlement, comme le montre la figure 3a, et sont montées sur la partie supérieure (7) de l'embase (5), comme le montre la figure 3b.According to the embodiment of the invention, the gas cartridge (4) and the pivoting handle (6) are arranged substantially parallel, as shown in FIG. figure 3a , and are mounted on the upper part (7) of the base (5), as shown in figure 3b .

Ladite partie supérieure (7) comporte de manière connue en soi un percuteur non représenté actionné par la poignée pivotante (6) et destiné à provoquer l'ouverture de la cartouche de gaz (4) lorsque l'usager actionne ladite poignée (6) selon F, par rapprochement de la poignée vers la cartouche. Pour actionner la poignée, l'utilisateur exercera une action sur cette dernière en prenant appui sur la cartouche (4), en prenant à pleine main l'ensemble poignée- cartouche (4, 6), ledit ensemble étant maintenu en position stable et rigide grâce à l'embase fixée rigidement à la ceinture.Said upper part (7) comprises, in a manner known per se, a not shown striker actuated by the pivoting handle (6) and intended to cause the opening of the gas cartridge (4) when the user actuates said handle (6) according to F, by bringing the handle towards the cartridge. To actuate the handle, the user will exert an action on the latter by pressing on the cartridge (4), taking full hand all handle-cartridge (4, 6), said assembly being maintained in a stable and rigid position thanks to the base fixed rigidly to the belt.

Notons que l'embout est disposé sur la périphérie externe de l'enceinte gonflable (2) afin que l'utilisateur ne soit pas gêné par sa présence et que la poignée manuelle pivotante (6) soit facilement atteignable pour lui. Par ailleurs la ceinture comporte un manchon (8) pouvant avantageusement se déplacer le long de l'enceinte, ledit manchon permettant ainsi de pouvoir escamoter le dispositif de gonflage lorsque son utilisation n'est pas désirée.Note that the tip is disposed on the outer periphery of the inflatable enclosure (2) so that the user is not hindered by its presence and the pivoting manual handle (6) is easily achievable for him. Furthermore, the belt comprises a sleeve (8) which can advantageously move along the enclosure, said sleeve thus allowing to be able to retract the inflation device when its use is not desired.

Ajoutons que l'ensemble poignée-cartouche et embase (4, 5, 6) est disposé dans l'épaisseur (e) du tore constitué par sensiblement la bouée dans sa totalité.Add that the handle-cartridge and base unit (4, 5, 6) is arranged in the thickness (e) of the torus constituted substantially by the buoy in its entirety.

La figure 4 illustre une variante de réalisation selon laquelle l'enceinte gonflable se présente sous la forme d'un anneau de forme torique, dont le profil transversal varie dans ses dimensions et dans sa forme, tandis que la partie avant de la ceinture présente en position gonflée un volume supérieur au reste de la ceintureThe figure 4 illustrates an alternative embodiment according to which the inflatable enclosure is in the form of a ring of toric form, the transverse profile of which varies in its dimensions and in its shape, whereas the front part of the belt has in the inflated position a volume greater than the rest of the belt

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemples, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques ainsi que leurs combinaisons.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and represented by way of examples, but it also includes all the technical equivalents as well as their combinations.

On pourrait ainsi et par exemple adjoindre à la ceinture un ou plusieurs accessoires tels qu'un émetteur radio, un sachet de poudre permettant d'éloigner les requins, voir un ballon de localisation qui serait gonflé à l'hélium s'élevant ainsi au de ssus de la surface de l'eau.One could thus and for example add to the belt one or more accessories such as a radio transmitter, a bag of powder to remove sharks, see a balloon of location which would be inflated with helium thus rising to above the surface of the water.
