Description
La présente invention concerne d'une manière générale une installation de douche comportant un receveur de douche relié à une canalisation d'évacuation par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de pompage.The present invention generally relates to a shower installation comprising a shower tray connected to a discharge pipe via a pumping device.
De manière connue en soi, lors de l'installation d'un receveur de douche, il est nécessaire lorsque l'on ne veut pas creuser le sol, de surélever le fond de celui-ci à environ 8 centimètres du sol pour laisser la place à la bonde d'évacuation et à la canalisation d'évacuation. Le document
Il est connu des installations de douche dont le receveur est au niveau du sol, ledit receveur pouvant par exemple être constitué par une partie du sol recouverte de matériaux étanches. De telles installations, dites "à l'italienne", sont coûteuses à installer car elles nécessitent de creuser le sol pour permettre l'installation du receveur et du dispositif d'évacuation.It is known shower facilities whose receiver is at ground level, said receiver may for example be constituted by a portion of the floor covered with waterproof materials. Such installations, called "Italian", are expensive to install because they require digging the ground to allow the installation of the receiver and the evacuation device.
De plus, ces installations ne sont pas toujours possibles à réaliser puisqu'il est nécessaire que le sol soit constitué par une dalle assez épaisse pouvant être creusée sur une hauteur de l'ordre de 5 à 10 centimètres sans détériorer sa solidité et sans couper des moyens de distribution d'eau ou d'électricité. C'est pourquoi de telles installations sont usuellement interdites dans les immeubles et sont souvent réservées aux pavillons dans lesquels les salles de bains peuvent être disposées au-dessus d'un vide sanitaire ou d'un sous-sol de sorte que la canalisation d'évacuation circule en-dessous de la dalle dans laquelle est positionné le receveur.In addition, these facilities are not always possible to achieve since it is necessary that the soil is constituted by a thick enough slab that can be dug to a height of the order of 5 to 10 centimeters without deteriorating its strength and without cutting means of distribution of water or electricity. This is why such installations are usually forbidden in buildings and are often reserved for pavilions in which bathrooms can be placed over a crawl space or a basement so that evacuation flows below the slab in which the receiver is positioned.
Lorsqu'il n'est pas possible de positionner la canalisation d'évacuation en dessous de la dalle, il est par exemple connu de mettre en oeuvre un dispositif de pompage de l'eau dans le receveur.When it is not possible to position the drain pipe below the slab, it is for example known to implement a device for pumping water in the receiver.
Dans des installations connues, le receveur comporte une cavité reliée à un dispositif de pompage. Ledit dispositif de pompage est activé par la mise en oeuvre de moyens complexes et coûteux permettant par exemple de détecter l'ouverture de la porte de l'installation, la chute de la pression dans les canalisations d'approvisionnement en eau lors de l'ouverture des robinets, la présence d'une personne dans l'installation par un capteur optique.In known installations, the receiver has a cavity connected to a pumping device. Said pumping device is activated by the implementation of complex and costly means making it possible for example to detect the opening of the door of the installation, the pressure drop in the water supply pipes during the opening faucets, the presence of a person in the installation by an optical sensor.
Le moyen le plus courant est la mise en place d'électrodes dans ladite cavité de manière à fermer un circuit électrique de commande lorsque l'eau présente dans la cavité assure la continuité du circuit électrique entre lesdites électrodes.The most common means is the placement of electrodes in said cavity so as to close an electrical control circuit when the water in the cavity ensures the continuity of the electrical circuit between said electrodes.
Ce type d'installation est à la fois coûteux et encombrant car la pompe est alimentée sous une tension de 220 Volts et doit donc être disposée à côté du receveur. Il en résulte qu'il est nécessaire de disposer des câbles de commande reliés aux électrodes et une canalisation d'évacuation d'eau entre le receveur et ladite pompe. De plus, dans la mesure où les électrodes de commande de la pompe sont disposées au contact de l'eau dans le receveur, il est indispensable de les alimenter en 12 ou en 24 Volts et donc de mettre en oeuvre un transformateur de sécurité.This type of installation is both expensive and bulky because the pump is powered by a voltage of 220 volts and must be arranged next to the receiver. As a result, it is necessary to have the control cables connected to the electrodes and a water discharge pipe between the receiver and said pump. In addition, insofar as the control electrodes of the pump are disposed in contact with the water in the receiver, it is essential to supply 12 or 24 volts and thus to implement a safety transformer.
La présente invention se propose de fournir une installation ne dépassant du sol que de quelques centimètres pouvant en conséquence être accessible aux personnes handicapées circulant dans un fauteuil roulant tout en pouvant être mise en place aisément car elle ne nécessite pas de travaux de creusement de la dalle.The present invention proposes to provide an installation exceeding the floor only a few centimeters that can therefore be accessible to disabled people traveling in a wheelchair while being able to be easily implemented because it does not require digging work of the slab .

figure 1 is a partial top view in perspective of an installation according to the invention showing the receiver and the pumping device whose protective cover is not shown, - the
figure 2 is a partial view in section and in perspective showing more precisely the connection of the receiver to the pumping device.
Comme visible au dessin, l'installation selon l'invention est globalement constituée par un receveur de douche 1 et un dispositif de pompage 2 disposé dans un évidement 120 du receveur 1 limité par une paroi 14.As shown in the drawing, the installation according to the invention is generally constituted by a shower tray 1 and a
Le receveur de douche 1 mis en oeuvre dans la présente invention est globalement constitué de deux parties : une première partie 100 formant le bac de douche dans lequel se positionne l'utilisateur et s'écoule l'eau, et une seconde partie constituant l'évidement 120 pour la mise en place du dispositif de pompage 2.The shower tray 1 used in the present invention consists generally of two parts: a
Le receveur de douche 1 est de manière connue en soi composé d'un fond 10 et d'un rebord 11 surélevé par rapport au fond 10, ledit rebord s'étendant sur le pourtour externe du receveur 1 ainsi que le long de la paroi 14 délimitant l'évidement 120 du bac de douche 100.The shower tray 1 is in a manner known per se consisting of a
Ladite paroi 14 s'étend au-dessus du rebord 11 du receveur 1 de sorte que l'eau présente dans le bac 100 ne peut pas passer au-dessus de ladite paroi 14 pour pénétrer dans l'évidement 120.Said
Pour rendre l'accès facile à une personne handicapée, il est usuellement prévu que le fond 10 du receveur 1 soit disposé à environ 3 centimètres au-dessus du sol et le receveur 1 est tel que son rebord 11 est à une distance faible du fond 10, par exemple de l'ordre de 1 centimètre.To make access easy for a disabled person, it is usually provided that the
Avec une telle installation, une personne en fauteuil roulant peut, sans être accompagnée, pénétrer dans le bac 100 du receveur de douche pour faire sa toilette, en positionnant éventuellement une rampe d'accès dont les dimensions sont réduites compte tenu de la faible hauteur à atteindre.With such an installation, a person in a wheelchair can, without being accompanied, enter the
Comme on pourra le comprendre par la suite, l'activation du dispositif de pompage 2 en fonction de la quantité d'eau présente dans le bac 100 du receveur de douche 1 est réalisée de manière mécanique, aucun moyen conducteur de l'électricité étant présent entre ledit bac 100 de douche et le dispositif de pompage 2.As will be understood subsequently, the activation of the
Le dispositif de pompage 2 se compose globalement d'un boîtier 25, fermé par un couvercle non représenté au dessin, dans lequel sont disposés un pressostat 20, une pompe 22 et une canalisation de sortie 23. De manière à ne pas surcharger le dessin, les composants du moteur de pompe n'ont pas été représentés. La pompe 22 est représentée de manière schématique par son boîtier et la roue 220.The
Dans ce dispositif de pompage 2, l'eau à évacuer est amenée dans le boîtier 25 et lorsque le niveau de celle-ci dépasse une valeur de seuil prescrite, la membrane disposée à la base du pressostat 20 est déformée et commande l'alimentation électrique de la pompe 22. La roue 220 de ladite pompe 22 est alors entraînée en rotation de manière à aspirer l'eau présente au fond du boîtier 25 et à la refouler dans la canalisation de sortie 23.In this
L'alimentation électrique du dispositif de pompage 2 est assurée par un câble électrique non représenté au dessin, traversant la paroi du boîtier 25 à travers un manchon de sécurité 21.The power supply of the
Ledit conducteur électrique est positionné dans le boîtier 25 de sorte qu'il ne puisse être au contact de l'eau et la commande de la pompe est effectuée par l'intermédiaire de la membrane du pressostat qui n'est pas conductrice.Said electrical conductor is positioned in the
Le câble d'alimentation électrique et la canalisation d'évacuation à laquelle est reliée la canalisation de sortie 23 sont par exemple disposés sous le rebord 11 du receveur de douche 1.The power supply cable and the exhaust pipe to which the
Un moyen de mise à l'air libre 24 est représenté schématiquement à la
Une canalisation de sortie 3 disposée entre le bac 100 du receveur 1 et le dispositif de pompage 2 conduit l'eau présente dans le bac 100 vers le boîtier 25 du dispositif de pompage 2.An
A cet effet, le bac 100 est conformé afin que l'eau coule vers une cuvette 13 dont le fond est disposé à un niveau inférieur à celui du fond 10. Ladite cuvette 13 est par exemple constituée par une pièce rapportée dans une découpe du receveur 1 comme représenté au dessin, mais peut également être constituée par tout autre moyen, par exemple en étant obtenue de moulage avec ledit receveur 1.For this purpose, the
Pour des raisons esthétiques ainsi que pour empêcher le passage d'éléments autres que de l'eau du bac 100 vers la cuvette 13, le bord de cette dernière est par exemple constitué par un trottoir plan 117 sur lequel est posée une grille 17.For aesthetic reasons as well as to prevent the passage of elements other than water from the
La cuvette 13 est raccordée au boîtier 25 du dispositif de pompage 2 par une canalisation de sortie 3.The
Ladite canalisation de sortie 3 est, dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté au dessin, constituée par un embout de sortie 130 solidaire de la cuvette 13 du receveur 1 raccordé par un manchon 201 à un embout d'entrée 250 du boîtier 25.Said
Le fonctionnement du dispositif selon l'invention est alors le suivant :
- lorsque de l'eau coule dans le
bac 100 du receveur, celle-ci est dirigée vers lacuvette 13 puis vers leboîtier 25 du dispositif de pompage, - le niveau de l'eau monte dans le fond dudit
boîtier 25 jusqu'à la valeur de seuil pour laquelle la membrane dupressostat 20 est déplacée et commande le démarrage de lapompe 22, - la rotation de la
roue 220 de laditepompe 22 aspire l'eau qui s'écoule du receveur 1 et la refoule vers la canalisation desortie 23 qui est de manière non représentée au dessin reliée à une canalisation d'évacuation des eaux usées.
- when water flows into the
tray 100 of the recipient, it is directed towards thebowl 13 and then to thehousing 25 of the pumping device, - the level of the water rises in the bottom of said
housing 25 to the threshold value for which the diaphragm of thepressure switch 20 is displaced and controls the starting of thepump 22, - the rotation of the
wheel 220 of saidpump 22 sucks water flowing from the receiver 1 and delivers it to theoutlet pipe 23 which is not shown in the drawing connected to a sewage pipe.
Suivant une disposition particulière de l'invention, la canalisation de sortie 3 n'est pas de section circulaire comme c'est l'usage mais est de section oblongue, plus longue que large et constituée de deux côtés rectilignes parallèles raccordés par des arrondis.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the
Cette disposition permet de fournir une canalisation autorisant la circulation du même débit d'eau qu'une canalisation de section circulaire utilisée communément qui, de manière avantageuse, est d'encombrement beaucoup moins important dans une direction.This provision makes it possible to provide a pipe allowing the circulation of the same flow of water as a pipe of circular section commonly used which, from advantageously, is of much smaller size in one direction.
En positionnant ladite canalisation 3 avec l'une des ses faces planes, constituant sa plus grande dimension, parallèle au sol et sa plus petite dimension perpendiculaire au sol, comme représenté au dessin, la hauteur H séparant le fond 10 du receveur 1 du sol S est réduite de manière tout à fait significative ce qui permet d'abaisser ledit receveur pour le rendre plus facilement accessible, spécialement aux personnes se déplaçant en fauteuil roulant.By positioning said
Par ailleurs, les composants du dispositif de pompage 2 sont dimensionnés de sorte que le niveau d'eau nécessaire à l'activation du moteur de pompe soit faible.Furthermore, the components of the
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté au dessin, les aménagements selon l'invention permettent de positionner le fond 10 du bac 100 du receveur 1 à 3 centimètres du sol, voire un peu moins.In the embodiment shown in the drawing, the arrangements according to the invention make it possible to position the bottom 10 of the
De préférence, le boîtier 25 du dispositif de pompage 2 est équipé de pieds 26 permettant d'amortir les vibrations se produisant au cours du fonctionnement de la pompe 22.Preferably, the
Un capot non représenté au dessin ferme l'évidement 120 du receveur dans lequel est disposé le dispositif de pompage 2. Ce capot peut par exemple être conformé de manière à servir de siège ou de repose pied.A cover not shown in the drawing closes the
Ledit capot est en appui sur le rebord 11 du receveur et fixé à la paroi 14 délimitant l'évidement 120 par des moyens de fixation tels que les vis 16.Said cover is resting on the
Par la disposition de la paroi 14 au-dessus du rebord 11 du receveur 1, l'eau se trouvant dans le bac 100 ne peut pénétrer dans l'évidement 120 et inonder la cavité libre se trouvant sous ledit receveur, ce qui pourrait entraîner des dégâts.By the arrangement of the
De plus afin de ne pas risquer que de l'eau s'introduise entre la paroi 14 et le capot par capillarité, la paroi latérale du capot est positionnée à distance de ladite paroi 14 de manière à laisser un intervalle vide.In addition, in order not to risk that water is introduced between the
Comme on aura pu le comprendre à la lecture de la description qui vient d'être faite illustrée par les dessins joints, l'installation suivant l'invention présente de nombreux avantages.As will be understood from reading the description that has just been made illustrated by the accompanying drawings, the installation according to the invention has many advantages.
En premier lieu, le receveur peut être installé sur le sol sans nécessiter de travaux de mise en forme de la dalle ce qui d'une part réduit le coût de l'installation et d'autre part permet de positionner cette dernière en tout lieu, quelle que soit la nature de la dalle.First, the receiver can be installed on the ground without requiring work formatting the slab which on the one hand reduces the cost of the installation and on the other hand allows to position it in any place, whatever the nature of the slab.
La forme retenue pour la canalisation de sortie 3 assure un encombrement limité des aménagements disposés à un niveau inférieur à celui du fond du receveur et permet de disposer ledit fond très près du sol.The shape chosen for the
Le dispositif de pompage 2 est enfermé dans un boîtier et aucun conducteur électrique peut se trouver en contact avec l'eau que ce soit dans ledit boîtier 25 ou dans le receveur 1.The
Cette sécurité autorise à alimenter le dispositif de pompage 2 par le courant électrique du réseau sans nécessiter la mise en oeuvre coûteuse d'un transformateur de sécurité.This security makes it possible to feed the
