Definitions

  • the invention protected in this Utility Model consists in a safety ledge made up of two parts: a rigid base based on cement extrusion, or on ceramic, metal or plastic material, and an elastic cover affixed to said base in order to encircle the perimeter of swimming pools and water and recreation areas, and to minimise, thanks to it, the risk of accidents and contusions due to impacts.
  • this invention has been designed with the aim to minimising and reducing the risk of accidental falls, of bruises against the ledges while nearing, entering or exiting such swimming pools, ponds or reservoirs, and at the end of the day with the aim of providing a measure of protection and safety to such environments of water containment.
  • the elastic cover features an overlay on one of its sides, over the section that is being used to contain the water, while presenting on its lower part a few longitudinal projections (whose aim is to act as a system of fitting mechanism onto the rigid base).
  • this cover can contain substances that intensify its identification and localisation, as well as safety features (colouring, waterproof additives, adherent additives, fungicides, weed-repellents, etc).
  • the principal function of this invention is to offer a medium of prevention and safety against accidents, and in particular a measure of protection against bruises or impacts in the event of an accident.
  • a number of other complementary benefits also exist in addition to this advantage.
  • this contribution also facilitates a medium of prevention and safety for risks of work accidents, as well as compliance with the Spanish technical standard relating to the standardisation of swimming pools, and in particular with regard to sports equipment and aquatic attractions (UNE-EN standard 13451 - 2001, 2004) that have specific safety requirements.
  • cover can present benefits in terms of information or advertising since it can easily be replaced for aesthetic reasons, or in order to be used as advertising or signage platform.
  • Figures No. 22, 23, 26 and 27 are drawings of a complementary realisation on the innovation of Patent ES2257133 by CERAMICAS SUGRA ⁇ ES on a group of elements for the construction of the upper edge and culvert in overflowing swimming pools (2006).
  • the safety ledge for swimming pools, water and recreation areas can be carried out and laid out in the following manner:
  • Fig.1 it relates to a group constituted by a rigid base ( 1 ) of cement, ceramic, porcelain or plastic material or any other construction material, and an elastic cover ( 2 ) of plastic material - polyolefin, silicones, polyurethanes, natural and artificial rubbers, or other types of polymers, combined or not - with elastic mechanical properties, that function as finish and cover.
  • the invention concept is installed in the edge of the basin that contains the water - Fig.2 - or inside it - Fig.3 - and may be completed with a culvert or draining gutter ( 3 ) and a grate ( 4 ).
  • One of the pieces, the support or rigid base of the ledge ( 1 ), consists in a few longitudinal fastening grooves in the feet of the cover ( 5 ) in the shape of a dovetail in which the cover's supporting feet are lodged ( 6 ) through projections or rhomboid feet that are part of the elastic cover ( 2 )
  • it can also have a rectangular structure - Fig.1 , Fig.2 , Fig.3 , Fig.4 , Fig.6 , Fig.7 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 , Fig.18 - for square or trapeze areas - Fig.11 for curved areas - Fig.12 , Fig.13 , Fig.14 , and Fig.17 - , or rectangular trapezes for corners - Figs. 15 , Fig.16 , Fig.26 , and Fig.27 -.
  • the elastic cover ( 2 ) is fixed with a mechanical socket between the cover's support feet ( 6 ) and the grooves ( 5 ) in the shape of a dovetail which can be reinforced with glue or adhesive for square outlines - Fig.1 , Fig.2 , Fig.3 , Fig.5 , Fig.6 , Fig.7 , Fig.8 , Fig.9 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 - or corners and curves - Fig.13 , Fig.14 , Fig.15 , Fig. 16 , Fig.17 , Fig.26 , and Fig.27 -.
  • Both pieces, the hardness of the ledge ( 1 ) and the elasticity of the cover ( 2 ) can be combined unlimitedly in both breadth and scale with square covers depending on the perimeter area of the swimming pools, ponds, tanks or reservoirs - Fix.18, Fig. 20 , and Fig.21 - to be installed, therefore transversal gaskets or separations are created that can be expanded or reduced to adjust to the size of the surroundings - Fig.10 -.
  • the piece of the elastic cover can contain in its composition chemical, antibacterial, antifungal, antialgae, waterproof or antiskid substances.
  • chemical, antibacterial, antifungal, antialgae, waterproof or antiskid substances In addition to its ornamental or aesthetic potential on account of the colouring agents or pigments that can be added as a dye during manufacture or other process, it may also be used as an informative, advertising or signage medium.
