- a transportable swimming pool including a swimming pool and two undressing cabins.
- the swimming pool is installed in the center of an enclosed space while the undressing cabins are placed at a distance from said pool, the assembly being supported by wheels.
- the document US 3859673 describes a shelter intended to be positioned on the edge of a buried swimming pool, above the upper level of the water contained in this basin, which is accessible by means of a ladder.
- the upper edge of swimming pools intended for the practice of stationary swimming, to avoid splashing, are, for example, described in the documents GB-2,382,525 and U.S. 5,787,519 .
- the upper edge of the pool has a concave deflecting shape intended to break the waves and a smooth top
- the upper edge of the overflow pool is constituted by a rim or lip of substantially triangular section surrounded by a peripheral gutter which collects water overflow. The results obtained by these two arrangements are very inadequate.
- An object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages and shortcomings of micro-pools or small pools, allowing the practice of swimming stationary, included in the state of the art, so as to make available to communities, or professionals, or private individuals, a swimming pool of modest dimensions allowing a great comfort of use and a minimum running cost.
- the invention is defined by the device of claim 1.
- the above-ground pool according to the invention consists of three parts constituting a compact assembly, or arranged so as to be assembled forming a compact assembly, these three parts comprising: a basin capable of containing a volume of water and having a bottom, two longitudinal walls and two end walls; - a deshabillage-dressing and / or shower cabin contiguous to one of said walls or sides of the basin; and an airlock communicating with this cabin and comprising an upper volume surmounting the portion of the pool adjacent to said cabin and delimited by two side walls, a front wall, and a cover wall, said front wall having an opening communicating with the free space above the basin and this opening is provided with a door.
- the pool is covered by an overhanging airlock, for example about a quarter of its length, and that the swimmer can thus isolate himself in the heated cabin to undress and then enter in the basin; or take out water later to get dressed, first crossing the airlock, also heated, without being in contact with the surrounding cold air, this for use in all weather outdoors, or simply for maximum comfort of use, indoors.
- an overhanging airlock for example about a quarter of its length
- the basin has, seen from above, an irregular octagonal shape comprising two large parallel or approximately parallel sides, corresponding to the longitudinal walls of said basin whose front and rear walls consist of three faces, connected one to the others and to said longitudinal walls forming angles of 120 ° or close to 120 °; on the other hand, the three faces forming the front wall or front wall of the basin tilt towards the bottom of the latter.
- the swimming movements of the swimmer lead to the creation and maintenance of natural flows of water along the longitudinal walls of the basin, towards the front wall of the latter from which they are deviated and gathered. to form a current of opposite direction against the swimmer.
- This natural circulation of water gives the feeling of swimming in a much larger pool.
- the pool is of the overflow type and its peripheral upper edge has a rounded profit, for example half-circular or substantially semicircular, over its entire length.
- This arrangement has the effect, on the one hand, of allowing "winding" of the waves produced by the swimmer's movements, on the rounded edges of the pelvis and thus avoiding their projection out of the latter, and, on the other hand, to eliminate the phenomenon of disordered chop and that of resonance which amplifies the wave which could be created quickly and disrupt the swimming.
- the upper edge of the basin is surrounded by an outer peripheral gutter to collect water overflows and quickly return the water in the usual recycling system, this gutter was sized to form a buffer tank.
- this characteristic thanks to this characteristic, the air bubbles generated by the swimmer's movements are released and eliminated on the way back of the water before its reintroduction into the pool, which avoids the introduction a murky water of frothy appearance, in this one.
- the compact swimming pool according to the invention comprises a dynamic retaining device which, in combination with the studied form of the pool, allows a stationary swim in which the user can swim continuously, at his own pace, without incessant imposed changes of direction, such as in open water, this retaining device consisting of an elastic flexible link whose one end is connected to a harness intended to be fixed on the swimmer and whose other end is arranged to be fixed, preferably removably, to the rear wall of the pool or a fixed point disposed near said wall.
- At least the central portion of the front wall of the pool is constituted, over at least part of its height, by at least one glazed panel or other transparent surface.
- Said transparent central part in a more playful register, can also allow the swimmer to watch a film, or a television program, or to consult his computer (controlled from the cabin or Internet, (in fixed mode), at the same time time he trains.
- This compact pool is more particularly remarkable in that it is constituted by a unitary assembly, autonomous and movable without disassembly, comprising: - a basin 1 adapted to contain a volume of water and having a bottom 1A, two longitudinal walls 1 B and two end walls 1C and 1D; - a undressing cab - dressing 2 attached to one of said walls or sides of the basin; and an airlock 3 establishing the communication between the cabin 2 and the basin 1, this airlock comprising an upper volume 4 surmounting the part 1 'of the pool adjacent to said cabin and being delimited by two side walls 3A, a cover wall 3B, and a front wall 5, the latter having an opening communicating with the free space formed above the basin, this opening being provided with a door 6.
- the basin has an elongated shape and the undressing-dressing cabinet is contiguous to one of the end walls or short sides of the pelvis that will be conventionally named "posterior end” in the rest of this presentation, and the upper volume of the airlock overcomes the end portion 1 'of the pool adjacent to said cabin, which is thus isolated from the basin.
- the micro-swimming pool according to the invention may consist of three parts (basin 1, cabin 2, airlock 3) arranged so as to can be assembled easily and quickly, so as to form a compact assembly, after assembly.
- the cabin 2 is provided with a heating means which may be constituted by any suitable apparatus according to the regulations and includes the usual equipment of a bath cabin. It can also have various other equipment to meet various needs, as indicated previously, such as shower, chemical W.C., refrigerator, changing table, etc.

Description
La présente invention concerne une piscine hors-sol compacte et polyvalente, destinée à la pratique de la nage stationnaire, à des fins de loisirs (détente, jeux d'eau, ....), ou d'entraînement à la compétition, ou d'entretien et de remise en forme, ou de rééducation, ou de thérapie, etc.The present invention relates to a compact and versatile above-ground pool intended for the practice of stationary swimming, for recreational purposes (relaxation, water games, ....), or training in competition, or maintenance and fitness, or re-education, or therapy, etc.
Plus précisément, l'invention se rapporte à une micro-piscine hors-sol compacte, apte à être transportée et déplacée à l'aide d'engins ou matériels courants et légers, et qui peut-être utilisée aussi bien en extérieur qu'en intérieur, par exemple dans une maison ou dans un appartement, avec un faible volume d'eau (par exemple de l'ordre de 5 m3 pour un bassin de petites dimensions). Selon un autre mode d'exécution, cette micro-piscine peut être montée sur roues de sorte à pouvoir être déplacée d'un lieu à un autre, au moyen d'un véhicule tracteur, à la manière d'une remorque ou d'une caravane.More specifically, the invention relates to a compact above-ground micro-pool, able to be transported and moved using common or light machines or equipment, and which can be used both outside and in interior, for example in a house or an apartment, with a small volume of water (for example of the order of 5 m3 for a small basin). According to another embodiment, this micro-pool can be mounted on wheels so that it can be moved from one place to another, by means of a towing vehicle, in the manner of a trailer or a caravan.
Les piscines de dimensions très réduites plus particulièrement destinées à la nage individuelle stationnaire restent encore dans le domaine de la spéculation et les diverses constructions proposées à ce jour n'ont pas abouti à une exploitation prometteuse, en raison, notamment, de la non résolution de problèmes que pose ce type d'article, tels que, par exemple :
- l'inconfort d'une utilisation lorsque la température ambiante est basse ;
- l'impossibilité d'éviter les projections d'eau en tous sens dans l'environnement du bassin ;
- l'absence de sensations comparables à celles qui sont procurées par la nage dans des bassins de grandes dimensions ;
- la difficulté de maintenir le nageur dans la partie centrale et dans l'axe du bassin.
- the discomfort of use when the ambient temperature is low;
- the impossibility of avoiding splashing water in all directions in the basin environment;
- the absence of sensations comparable to those provided by swimming in large basins;
- the difficulty of keeping the swimmer in the central part and in the pelvic axis.

Le document
Un objet de l'invention est de remédier aux inconvénients et insuffisances des micro-piscines ou piscines de petites dimensions, permettant la pratique de la nage stationnaire, comprises dans l'état de la technique, de sorte à mettre à disposition des collectivités, ou des professionnels, ou des particuliers, une piscine de dimensions modestes permettant un grand confort d'usage et un coût de fonctionnement minimal.An object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages and shortcomings of micro-pools or small pools, allowing the practice of swimming stationary, included in the state of the art, so as to make available to communities, or professionals, or private individuals, a swimming pool of modest dimensions allowing a great comfort of use and a minimum running cost.
L'invention est définie par le dispositif de la revendication 1.The invention is defined by the device of
Selon une première disposition caractéristique, la piscine hors-sol suivant l'invention est constituée de trois parties constituant un ensemble compact, ou agencées de manière à pouvoir être assemblées en formant un ensemble compact, ces trois parties comprenant : - un bassin apte à contenir un volume d'eau et comportant un fond, deux parois longitudinales et deux parois d'extrémité ; - une cabine de deshabillage-rhabillage et /ou de douche accolée à l'une desdites parois ou côtés du bassin ; - et un sas communiquant avec cette cabine et comprenant un volume supérieur surmontant la partie du bassin adjacente à ladite cabine et délimité par deux parois latérales, une paroi frontale, et une paroi de couverture, ladite paroi frontale comportant une ouverture communiquant avec l'espace libre au-dessus du bassin et cette ouverture est munie d'une porte.According to a first characteristic arrangement, the above-ground pool according to the invention consists of three parts constituting a compact assembly, or arranged so as to be assembled forming a compact assembly, these three parts comprising: a basin capable of containing a volume of water and having a bottom, two longitudinal walls and two end walls; - a deshabillage-dressing and / or shower cabin contiguous to one of said walls or sides of the basin; and an airlock communicating with this cabin and comprising an upper volume surmounting the portion of the pool adjacent to said cabin and delimited by two side walls, a front wall, and a cover wall, said front wall having an opening communicating with the free space above the basin and this opening is provided with a door.
On conçoit que grâce à un tel agencement, le bassin se trouve couvert par un sas en surplomb, par exemple sur environ le quart arrière de sa longueur, et que le nageur peut ainsi s'isoler dans la cabine chauffée pour se déshabiller et pénétrer ensuite dans le bassin; ou ressortir ultérieurement de l'eau pour se rhabiller, en traversant d'abord le sas, également chauffé, sans être en contact avec de l'air froid environnant, ceci pour un usage par tous temps en extérieur, ou simplement pour un confort maximal d'utilisation, en intérieur.It is conceivable that with such an arrangement, the pool is covered by an overhanging airlock, for example about a quarter of its length, and that the swimmer can thus isolate himself in the heated cabin to undress and then enter in the basin; or take out water later to get dressed, first crossing the airlock, also heated, without being in contact with the surrounding cold air, this for use in all weather outdoors, or simply for maximum comfort of use, indoors.
Selon un mode d'exécution avantageux, le bassin présente, vu de dessus, une forme octogonale irrégulière comprenant deux grands côtés parallèles ou approximativement parallèles, correspondant aux parois longitudinales dudit bassin dont les parois avant et arrière sont constituées de trois faces, raccordées les unes aux autres et auxdites parois longitudinales en formant des angles de 120° ou voisins de 120°; d'autre part, les trois faces formant la paroi avant ou paroi frontale du bassin s'inclinent en direction du fond de ce dernier.According to an advantageous embodiment, the basin has, seen from above, an irregular octagonal shape comprising two large parallel or approximately parallel sides, corresponding to the longitudinal walls of said basin whose front and rear walls consist of three faces, connected one to the others and to said longitudinal walls forming angles of 120 ° or close to 120 °; on the other hand, the three faces forming the front wall or front wall of the basin tilt towards the bottom of the latter.
Grâce à cette conformation, les mouvements de nage du nageur entraînent la création et l'entretien de flux naturels d'eau le long des parois longitudinales du bassin, en direction de la paroi frontale de ce dernier d'où ils se trouvent déviés et rassemblés pour former un courant de sens opposé face au nageur. Cette circulation naturelle de l'eau donne la sensation de la nage dans un bassin beaucoup plus grand.Thanks to this conformation, the swimming movements of the swimmer lead to the creation and maintenance of natural flows of water along the longitudinal walls of the basin, towards the front wall of the latter from which they are deviated and gathered. to form a current of opposite direction against the swimmer. This natural circulation of water gives the feeling of swimming in a much larger pool.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique, la piscine est du type à débordement et son bord supérieur périphérique présente un profit arrondi, par exemple demi-circulaire ou sensiblement demi-circulaire, sur toute sa longueur.According to another characteristic arrangement, the pool is of the overflow type and its peripheral upper edge has a rounded profit, for example half-circular or substantially semicircular, over its entire length.
Cette disposition a pour effet, d'une part, de permettre "l'enroulement" des vagues produites par les mouvements du nageur, sur les bords arrondis du bassin et évitant ainsi leur projection hors de ce dernier, et, d'autre part, d'éliminer le phénomène de clapot désordonné et celui de résonance qui amplifie la vague qui pourrait se créer rapidement et perturber la nage.This arrangement has the effect, on the one hand, of allowing "winding" of the waves produced by the swimmer's movements, on the rounded edges of the pelvis and thus avoiding their projection out of the latter, and, on the other hand, to eliminate the phenomenon of disordered chop and that of resonance which amplifies the wave which could be created quickly and disrupt the swimming.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique, le bord supérieur du bassin est ceinturé par une gouttière périphérique extérieure permettant de recueillir les débordements d'eau et de ramener rapidement l'eau dans le système de recyclage habituel, cette gouttière était dimensionnée pour constituer en réservoir tampon. D'autre part, grâce à cette caractéristique, les bulles d'air générées par les mouvements du nageur sont libérées et éliminées sur le chemin du retour de l'eau avant sa réintroduction dans le bassin, ce qui permet d'éviter l'introduction d'une eau trouble d'aspect écumeux, dans celui-ci.According to another characteristic arrangement, the upper edge of the basin is surrounded by an outer peripheral gutter to collect water overflows and quickly return the water in the usual recycling system, this gutter was sized to form a buffer tank. On the other hand, thanks to this characteristic, the air bubbles generated by the swimmer's movements are released and eliminated on the way back of the water before its reintroduction into the pool, which avoids the introduction a murky water of frothy appearance, in this one.
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique, la piscine compacte selon l'invention comprend un dispositif de retenue dynamique qui, en combinaison avec la forme étudiée du bassin, permet une nage stationnaire selon laquelle l'utilisateur peut nager de manière continue, à son propre rythme, sans changements incessants imposés de direction, comme en eau libre, ce dispositif de retenue étant constitué d'un lien souple élastique dont l'une des extrémités est reliée à un harnais destiné à être fixé sur le nageur et dont l'autre extrémité est agencée pour pouvoir être fixée, de préférence de façon amovible, à la paroi arrière de la piscine ou à un point fixe disposé à proximité de ladite paroi.According to another characteristic arrangement, the compact swimming pool according to the invention comprises a dynamic retaining device which, in combination with the studied form of the pool, allows a stationary swim in which the user can swim continuously, at his own pace, without incessant imposed changes of direction, such as in open water, this retaining device consisting of an elastic flexible link whose one end is connected to a harness intended to be fixed on the swimmer and whose other end is arranged to be fixed, preferably removably, to the rear wall of the pool or a fixed point disposed near said wall.

On se réfère auxdits dessins pour décrire un exemple de réalisation avantageux, quoique nullement limitatif, de la piscine hors sol compacte et polyvalente selon l'invention.Referring to said drawings to describe an advantageous embodiment, although not limiting, the pool above ground compact and versatile according to the invention.
Cette piscine compacte est plus particulièrement remarquable en ce qu'elle est constituée par un ensemble monobloc, autonome et déplacable sans démontage, comprenant : - un bassin 1 apte à contenir un volume d'eau et comportant un fond 1A, deux parois longitudinales 1 B et deux parois d'extrémité 1C et 1D ; - une cabine de déshabillage - rhabillage 2 accolée à l'une desdites parois ou côtés du bassin ; - et un sas 3 établissant la communication entre la cabine 2 et le bassin 1, ce sas comprenant un volume supérieur 4 surmontant la partie 1' du bassin adjacente à ladite cabine et étant délimité par deux parois latérales 3A, une paroi de couverture 3B, et une paroi frontale 5, cette dernière comportant une ouverture communiquant avec l'espace libre ménagé au-dessus du bassin, cette ouverture étant munie d'une porte 6. De préférence, le bassin présente une forme allongée et la cabine de deshabillage-rhabillage est accolée à l'une des parois d'extrémité ou petits côtés du bassin que l'on nommera conventionnellement "extrémité postérieure" dans la suite du présent exposé, et le volume supérieur du sas surmonte la partie extrême 1' du bassin adjacente à ladite cabine, laquelle se trouve ainsi isolée du bassin.This compact pool is more particularly remarkable in that it is constituted by a unitary assembly, autonomous and movable without disassembly, comprising: - a
Selon un autre mode d'exécution, la micro-piscine selon l'invention peut être constituée de trois parties (bassin 1, cabine 2, sas 3) agencées de manière à pouvoir être assemblées aisément et rapidement, de façon à former un ensemble compact, après assemblage.According to another embodiment, the micro-swimming pool according to the invention may consist of three parts (
De manière avantageuse, la cabine 2 est munie d'un moyen de chauffage qui peut être constitué par tout appareil approprié conformé à la réglementation et elle inclut les équipements habituels d'une cabine de bain. Elle peut aussi disposer de différents autres équipements répondant à divers besoins, comme indiqué précédemment, tels que douche, W.C. chimique, réfrigérateur, table à langer, etc.Advantageously, the
La cabine 2 est munie d'une porte d'accès 2a équipée d'un système d'ouverture 2b fonctionnent par introduction d'une carte personnalisée ou non (carte bancaire, carte de membre d'une association ou autre), ou d'un jeton.The
Alternativement, elle peut être munie d'un moyen d'ouverture classique (poignée ou autre).Alternatively, it can be provided with a conventional opening means (handle or other).
Le sas 3 est également chauffé, par exemple par le même appareil qui assure le chauffage de la cabine 2, ou par un appareil distinct.The
Le sas 3 est placé en surplomb d'une portion arrière 1' du bassin, par exemple sur environ le quart arrière de la longueur totale de celui-ci, ce qui peut représenter une avancée de l'ordre de 80 cm au-dessus de la surface de l'eau.The
La porte avant du sas peut être constituée par deux vantaux 6A, 6B assujettis, chacun, à un système de rappel automatique en position de fermeture, connu en soi. La partie inférieure des vantaux 6A, 6B est munie d'une bavette souple 6C qui plonge dans la partie supérieure du bassin, par exemple sur quelques centimètres, ces bavettes assurant l'étanchéité du sas en présence d'air froid.The front door of the airlock can be constituted by two
Un rideau souple 16 peut être avantageusement installé au dessus de la paroi postérieure 1 D de sorte à établir une séparation entre la portion extrême 1' du bassin et la cabine 2 et ainsi éviter les projections d'eau dans ladite cabine.A
Le bassin 1 est de dimensions réduites. Il est par exemple dimensionné pour qu'un nageur de grande taille puisse effectuer des mouvements de nage (par exemple de brasse, de nage papillon ou de dos crawlé) parfaitement à l'aise. Par exemple, il peut présenter une longueur de l'ordre de 3 m à 3,6 m, une largeur de l'ordre de 1,10 m à 2 m et une profondeur de l'ordre de 0,90 m à 1,20 m, l'ensemble de la piscine compacte pouvant présenter un volume hors-tout de l'ordre de 2 m x 2 m x 5,2 m. Ces dimensions peuvent varier, mais doivent rester dans le domaine des tailles "domestiques" de sorte à pouvoir loger lesdits ensembles dans un espace réduit tel que : petit jardin, garage, cabinet de Kinésithérapeute, etc.
Le bassin est réalisé dans un matériau doté de bonnes qualités d'isolation thermique et ses parois latérales présentent une épaisseur relativement importante (de l'ordre de 10 cm).The basin is made of a material with good thermal insulation qualities and its side walls have a relatively large thickness (of the order of 10 cm).
L'invention est, de manière plus particulièrement intéressante, applicable aux piscines à débordement constant. Dans ce cas, le bord supérieur périphérique 7 du bassin 1 présente un profil arrondi, de préférence demi-circulaire ou sensiblement demi-circulaire et ledit bord supérieur est ceinturé par une gouttière périphérique extérieure 8 permettant de collecter les débordements d'eau et de ramener rapidement l'eau recueillie dans un système de recyclage connu en soi.The invention is, more particularly interesting, applicable to constant overflow pools. In this case, the peripheral
Le bord supérieur du bassin 1 peut être muni d'ailerons escamotables 9 que l'on peut déployer, par exemple en prévision d'une occupation ludique de la piscine par des enfants ou des adolescents. Ces ailerons 9 peuvent occuper une position rabattue le long des parois du bassin, ou une position relevée (
La gouttière peut comporter un système d'isolation thermique flottant afin de limiter les pertes de calories à l'air libre. Ce système d'isolation peut être constitué par des plaques flottantes de polystyrène 14 logées dans la gouttière 8 (
Un réservoir auxiliaire 10 dans lequel se déverse la gouttière est intégré à la structure de la piscine, ce réservoir étant disposé contre la paroi postérieure 1 D du bassin. Ce réservoir qui peut avoir une contenance de l'ordre de 300 litres, constitue un tampon volumétrique, permettant de garder un niveau d'eau constant dans le bassin, lorsque plusieurs personnes pénètrent dans ledit bassin. Il est raccordé au système de recyclage habituel de la piscine.An
Les retours d'eau dans le bassin s'effectuent à travers la paroi postérieure 1D du bassin, par deux buses centro-latérales 15, raccordées à la gouttière périphérique extérieure 8 ou au réservoir auxiliaire 10 et orientées obliques vers l'extérieur par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du bassin, de façon telle qu'elles participent à la création et au renforcement des courants d'eau décrits dans la suite du présent exposé.The return of water in the basin is effected through the
Selon un mode d'exécution avantageux, le bassin 1 présente, vu de dessus, une forme octogonale irrégulière comprenant deux grands côtés parallèles ou approximativement parallèles, correspondant aux parois longitudinales 1B dudit bassin dont les parois avant 1C et arrière 1D sont constituées de trois faces raccordées les unes aux autres et auxdites parois longitudinales 1 B en formant des angles de 120° ou voisins de 120°.According to an advantageous embodiment, the
En outre, les trois faces formant la paroi avant ou paroi frontale 1C du bassin sont inclinées en direction du fond 1A de ce dernier, lesdites faces forment, par exemple, un angle de l'ordre de 120° avec ledit fond 1A.In addition, the three faces forming the front wall or
Avec cette conformation, lorsque le nageur N (
Les angles internes du bassin supérieur à 90°, idéalement de l'ordre de 120°, permettent de créer un contre-courant face au nageur, sans tourbillons et avec peu de bulles, auto-alimenté par ce dernier et contribuant à son maintien "en ligne".The internal angles of the upper pool 90 °, ideally of the order of 120 °, allow to create a counter-current against the swimmer, without swirls and with little bubbles, self-powered by the latter and contributing to its maintenance. online".
Selon une autre disposition caractéristique, la piscine compacte selon l'invention comprend un dispositif de retenue dynamique qui, en combinaison avec la forme étudiée du bassin, permet une nage stationnaire selon laquelle l'utilisateur peut nager de manière continue, à son propre rythme, sans changements incessants imposés de direction, comme en eau libre, ce dispositif de retenue étant constitué d'un lien souple élastique 11 dont l'une des extrémités est reliée à une ceinture ou à un harnais 12 destiné à être fixé sur le nageur et dont l'autre extrémité est agencée pour pouvoir être fixée, de préférence de façon amovible, à la paroi arrière 1D de la piscine ou à un point fixe disposé à proximité de ladite paroi.According to another characteristic arrangement, the compact swimming pool according to the invention comprises a dynamic retaining device which, in combination with the studied form of the pool, allows a stationary swim in which the user can swim continuously, at his own pace, without incessant imposed changes of direction, as in open water, this retaining device consisting of a resilient flexible link 11 whose one end is connected to a belt or a
Un tel dispositif de retenue est, par exemple, décrit et revendiqué dans un précédent brevet N°
Suivant un mode d'exécution intéressant, au moins la partie centrale 1C" de la paroi antérieur 1C du bassin 1 est constituée, sur au moins une partie de sa hauteur, par au moins un panneau vitré 13. Ce panneau vitré occupe, par exemple, les trois-quarts de la hauteur de ladite partie centrale, en surplomb à l'avant du bassin 1 permettant, d'une part, le visionnage direct du nageur sous l'eau, et, d'autre part, le visionnage, par le nageur, le cas échéant, d'un écran installé derrière le panneau vitré.According to an interesting embodiment, at least the
Ledit panneau peut être constitué en deux parties disposées l'une au dessus de l'autre.Said panel may consist of two parts arranged one above the other.
La machinerie de la piscine (dispositifs de circulation, chauffage et filtration de l'eau, ...) est réalisée de la façon habituelle et elle est intégrée à la structure de ladite piscine et accessible par l'extérieur.The machinery of the pool (circulation devices, heating and water filtration, ...) is carried out in the usual manner and is integrated into the structure of said pool and accessible from the outside.
On comprend que la piscine hors-sol compacte et polyvalente selon l'invention s'adresse aussi bien :
- aux bébés et enfants qui peuvent ainsi jouer dans l'eau même en hiver ;
- aux personnes âgées ou non qui ont envie de s'offrir en toute sécurité un moment de détente et/ou de sport ;
- aux nageurs sportifs qui veulent s'entraîner chez eux ;
- aux personnes actives qui disposent de peu de temps pour se détendre après le travail ;
- aux kinésithérapeutes ;
- et à toute personne ayant plaisir à se trouver dans l'eau.
- babies and children who can play in the water even in winter;
- elderly and non-elderly people who want to relax and / or play sports;
- sports swimmers who want to train at home;
- active people who have little time to relax after work;
- physiotherapists;
- and to anyone who enjoys being in the water.
Pour l'installer, il suffit d'une aire libre, couverte ou non, d'environ 6 m sur 3 m. Une arrivée d'eau classique du type tuyau d'arrosage, un point d'évacuation accessible (50 m) des eaux usées (douche et trop-plein du débordement) et un point d'accessibilité (50 m) au courant électrique (4 kW minimum) sont également nécessaire.To install it, it is enough for a free area, covered or not, about 6 m by 3 m. A conventional water supply of the garden hose type, an accessible drainage point (50 m) of the wastewater (overflow shower and overflow) and an accessibility point (50 m) to the electric current (4 kW minimum) are also necessary.
L'impact environnemental est donc réduit au minimum proportionnellement à l'étendue de ses domaines d'utilité.The environmental impact is therefore minimized in proportion to the extent of its utility domains.
Son bilan de fonctionnement est sans équivalent en termes de consommation d'eau, de produits chimiques de traitement et d'énergie.Its operating budget is unparalleled in terms of water consumption, process chemicals and energy.
