Definitions

  • the invention relates to a basin covering device, such as a swimming pool, comprising a mechanism for winding or folding a flexible cover or in the form of a deck with blades, this mechanism extending transversely to the direction for deploying said cover and being held at its ends by means of lifting means designed to transmit to said mechanism a vertical and horizontal component displacement from, from a housing adjacent to the basin, bring the cover to- above it for deployment.
  • the present invention relates to the field of pool cover devices, particularly swimming pools, reel type or other device for folding a cover, whether flexible or in the form of a deck blade.
  • some of these covers are made of a flexible material, such as a tarpaulin, more or less translucent for, depending on the case, to promote or not the passage of sunlight.
  • Such cover may also take the form of a simple net, often used during winter periods to prevent dead leaves and other debris from falling into the pool.
  • basin covers in the form of an apron composed of a juxtaposition of more or less rigid blades.
  • These blades are connected in an articulated manner to one another for winding or zigzag folding of said apron, or comprise, on their longitudinal edges, attachment means allowing them to deploy by coming to hook to each other forming the cover. During folding these blades are unhooked on the contrary from each other to fold overlay.
  • the mechanism that allows folding or winding extends transversely to one end of the basin.
  • This mechanism for example in the form of a winding tube, is held in rotation at its ends by means of support consoles resting on the ground. It is very common for at least one of these consoles has rolling means for laterally moving the pool cover. More exactly, the user grasps the console opposite to that provided with these rolling means for slightly raising the cover and pushing it in a longitudinal direction, that is substantially transverse to the direction of deployment.
  • brackets are usually permanently attached to one end of the basin.
  • covers blades or deck are provided to float immediately above the body of water and it is essential, to allow its deployment, but also its folding that, for example, the tube of winding is perfectly square with the axis of deployment of said cover, or the axis of the basin.
  • Such cover devices must be installed as soon as the pool is built and represent a cost often much higher than the mobile devices described above.
  • a covering device comprising a pool cover winding tube held at its ends by consoles in the form of levers mounted swinging in an upper angle of a chest adjacent to the basin. Also, since an erased position in this trunk, this winding tube and therefore the cover wrapped around it can be brought above said basin so as to allow the cover to fall freely in the latter and easily extend above the water.
  • Lever-shaped consoles adopt an L shape in the corner of which is fixed the end of a telescopic cylinder.
  • the tilting control means of the winding tube to bring it into its active position for the deployment or folding of the cover or in its retracted position in the boot provided for this purpose at the pool front are dissociated means opening and closing control of the lid used to close the safe.
  • the present invention proposes to meet all of the aforementioned drawbacks through a covering device that allows to completely release the periphery of the basin when the cover is folded, while avoiding all the constraints of specific arrangements that require, usually, submerged devices with deployment to water. More particularly, this device is able to avoid uncontrolled unfolding of the cover during the phases of retraction and deployment.
  • the invention relates to a basin covering device, such as a swimming pool, comprising a mechanism for winding or folding a flexible cover or in the form of a deck with blades, this mechanism extending transversely to the direction of deployment of said cover and being maintained, at its ends, by means of lifting means designed to transmit to said mechanism a vertical and horizontal component displacement, from a housing adjacent to the basin, to bring the cover above the latter for deployment, characterized in that said lifting means are defined to maintain said mechanism substantially in the same angular position with respect to its longitudinal axis during its movements between its retracted position in said housing adjacent to the pool and its position above the pool to allow the deployment of said cover.
  • the lifting means at the ends of the mechanism for winding or folding the cover comprise articulated arms.
  • the covering device according to the invention can be erased in a suitable housing at the edge of everything while being able to extend over this basin for the deployment of the cover, the latter is perfectly maintained in position during these maneuvers so as to avoid a partial deployment of this cover. Moreover, in the case of a folding type cover, a change in its angular position may simply cause a malfunction of the deployment mechanism and this cover.
  • the present invention relates to a covering device 1 having a cover 2 defined to extend over a pool 3, more particularly a pool.
  • cover 2 itself, it may be in the form of a tarpaulin or apron consisting of a succession of blades.
  • these blades can be connected in an articulated manner to each other to allow the winding of the apron or folding accordion, just as these blades can be provided with attachment means to allow the folding of the deck by superposition of these blades .
  • this cover can be defined by an opaque tarpaulin or translucent, or even a net.
  • the covering device 1, according to the invention, comprises a mechanism 5 for winding or folding the cover 2.
  • this mechanism can be in the form of a winding tube around which and from which can come s roll up or unfold the blanket 2.
  • manual drive means can be installed on the lifting means 6, just as on the latter can be attached an electric drive motor. Note also that such a motor can still take position in the winding tube 5 itself.
  • these lifting means 6 are thus designed to allow the installation of the covering device 1 in a housing which is adjacent to the basin, while being below the level of the latter so as to release its periphery. However, for the deployment of the cover 2, these lifting means 6 are able to raise it and position it above the basin 3 avoiding any communication between the latter and the housing 10.
  • the lifting means 6 are designed capable of transmitting to this cover 2, folded or wound, a combined movement, vertical and horizontal component, precisely to bring it from its initial position, retracted in a housing 10, which is adjacent to the basin 3, above the latter.
  • this cover 2 can fall freely and vertically on the surface of the water 4 in this basin 3.
  • the blanket 2 can freely and vertically join the body of water 4, which this cover 2 is wholly or partly wound on this winding tube 5 or at the end of deployment.
  • the lifting means 6 are defined to maintain said mechanism 5, whether it be a winding tube or a box, substantially in the same angular position with respect to its axis. longitudinal, transverse to the direction of deployment of the cover 2, during its movements between its lowered position 8 and retracted into said housing 10 adjacent to the basin 3 and its position 7 above the basin 3 to allow the deployment of said cover 2.
  • the lifting means 6 comprise articulated arms 12 designed able to maintain, at each of its ends, the folding mechanism or winding 5, in this case the winding tube.
  • Such articulated arms 12 can be mounted on a base 13 which can take up position in the housing 10 adjacent to the basin 3.
  • these articulated arms can be pivotally mounted on a bracket 14 extending substantially vertically from this base 13.
  • the articulated arms 12 may consist of a combination of several arms 12A, 12B successively pivoted on the ends of each other.
  • Servo-control means further connect these arms 12A, 12B to each other and / or to the base 13, or even the bracket 14 to ensure the servocontrol of the rotation of the arms 12A, 121B between them and to guarantee the maintenance of the mechanism 5 in the same angular position during maneuvers.
  • this servocontrol can be ensured through a gear connection or any other mechanical transmission between these arms 12A, 12B and / or the base 13 or the bracket 14.
  • a deployment and folding control mechanism of the hydraulic, hydroelectric or electrical type, can complete the lifting means 6 to actuate these articulated arms 12 and bring the mechanism 5, as the case may be, to its first raised position 7 or its second position. lowered position 8. Moreover, the enslavement referred to above can be ensured through this control mechanism.
  • the present invention is not limited to a design of lifting means 6 in the form of articulated arms. They can still be designed by jacks or even slides or other guide rails along which can, for example, be mounted movably in translation the ends of the mechanism 5.
  • the advantages deriving from the present invention consist, essentially, in that the covering device 1 not only does not encumber the periphery of the basin 3 when the cover 2 is rolled up or folded up, so when the pool is uncovered, but in in addition, it has all the advantages of longevity and ease of maintenance of a non-recessed and non-submerged cover.
  • the invention also ensures a perfectly controlled deployment of the cover, that it is in flexible form or a blade shutter. It especially avoids that a partial deployment of this cover can occur during the lifting and lowering phases of the winding mechanism or folding.
