Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an overflow device for water drain assemblies, in particular for drainage systems for roofs of buildings, and to a water drain assembly, in particular for drainage systems for roofs of buildings, provided with said overflow device.
  • a drainage system for roofs of building for draining rain water is made up of collection drain assemblies and a network of pipes.
  • the drainage system is sized according to the rainfall expected in the locality where it is installed. It is, however, expedient to provide alongside the main system an emergency system, having the function of preventing overloading of the roof of the building in the event of a rainfall higher than what is expected.
  • An emergency system can be obtained in various ways, such as, for example:
  • the secondary system can be made up of drain assemblies of the same type as those of the main system, or else of some other type.
  • drain assemblies of the same type as those of the main system, or else of some other type.
  • traditional drain assemblies explosive gravity
  • siphon drain assemblies explosion the siphon action
  • An emergency system with siphon drain assemblies can be obtained in various ways:
  • known accessories enable only raising of the drain assembly by a pre-set height, determined by the size of the accessory, but in general do not allow adjustment in height of the drain assembly. In order to obtain different heights, it is, instead, necessary to use accessories of different dimensions, or else envisage cutting a raised-structure accessory to the desired height.
  • US2006242913-A1 discloses an adjustable roof drain according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • An aim of the present invention is to provide a water drain assembly, in particular for drainage systems for roofs of buildings, that will overcome the drawbacks highlighted above.
  • an aim of the invention is to provide an overflow device that can be applied to water drain assemblies in a simple and effective way, the device being simple and inexpensive to produce, easy to install, and fully effective not only for raising the level of water entering the drain assembly on which the overflow device is installed, but that will also enable adjustment of said level.
  • the present invention hence regards an overflow device for water drain assemblies, in particular for drainage systems for roofs of buildings as defined in basic terms in the annexed Claim 1 and, as regards its additional features, in the dependent claims.
  • the invention moreover regards a water drain assembly, in particular for drainage systems for roofs of buildings, as defined in the annexed Claim 10, said water drain assembly being provided with said overflow device.
  • the overflow device according to the invention is simple and inexpensive to produce and install, has contained dimensions, and is fully effective.
  • the overflow device according to the invention can be applied to water drain assemblies in a simple and effective way, without altering the levels of performance of the drain assembly.
  • the overflow device then has a high versatility in so far as it enables raising of the level of water entering the drain assembly and also adjustment of said level.
  • Figure 1 designated by 1 is a water drain assembly, in particular forming part of a drainage system for roofs of buildings.
  • the system is not illustrated as a whole and comprises, as is known, a plurality of drain assemblies installed generally on the roof of the building, and pipes and collectors of various sizes and shapes, which connect each drain assembly to a main pipe for discharge outside the building.
  • the drain assembly 1 extends basically along an axis A (which, in use, is substantially vertical) and mainly comprises a base body 2, having an opening 3 for inlet of the water, which communicates with a duct 4 formed inside the body 2, and a lid 5 set above the body 2 and provided with a top grid 6.
  • the drain assembly 1 is a siphon-effect drain assembly.
  • the body 2 is a basically tubular body shaped as a whole like a funnel and comprises a bottom tubular portion 8, which is, for example, substantially cylindrical, and is provided inside with the duct 4, and a top inlet flange 9, which is radially external and substantially annular, is provided at the centre with the opening 3, and has an annular top surface 10, optionally inclined and/or flared radially inwards (or having an inclined or flared portion) with respect to the axis A, which conveys the water to the opening 3 and then into the duct 4.
  • the flange 9 is formed by two concentric pieces inserted inside one another and joined together, for example via screws.
  • the lid 5 comprises the grid 6 and, preferably, an anti-vortex disk 12, which is set underneath the grid 6 and is shaped in such a way as to prevent formation of vortices in the water entering the drain assembly 1 and introduction of air in the drain assembly 1.
  • the disk 12 has a plurality of blades 13, which extend from a bottom face of the disk and convey the water into the body 2 preventing formation of vortices.
  • the blades 13 are arranged radially about the axis A and are angularly spaced apart from one another.
  • the lid 5 is joined to the body 2 via fixing members 15, for example of a threaded type.
  • the flange 9 carries screws 16, which extend vertically through respective holes 17 formed in the lid 5 and are blocked by nuts.
  • the grid 6 is substantially cage-shaped and is set on top of the disk 12 for covering and enclosing the disk 12.
  • the grid 6 is joined to the disk 12 with fixing members 18, for example with a central screw 19 associated to an anti-rotation spider (which couples the grid 6 and the disk 12 so that they are angularly fixed with respect to one another).
  • the drain assembly 1 is provided with an overflow device 25 comprising a removable overflow accessory component 30, which has the purpose of rendering the drain assembly 1 suitable for use both in a main drainage system (operating in normal conditions, with a level of rainfall within the design limits envisaged) and in a secondary emergency system (operating in the case of rainfall that is higher than what is envisaged for normal operation of the main system).
  • the overflow device 25 and the component 30 have the purpose of varying the height of the drain assembly 1, and precisely raising the level of entry of the water into the drain assembly 1.
  • the component 30 is removably inserted between the flange 9 of the body 2 and the lid 5.
  • the component 30 comprises a lower element 31 and an upper element 32, which are telescopically coupled together along the axis A, and a height-adjustment device 33 for varying the axial height (measured along the axis A) of the component 30, via which the position of the elements 31, 32 with respect to one another along the axis A is varied, and consequently also the axial height of the component 30 (measured along the axis A).
  • the elements 31, 32 are mobile with respect to one another. More precisely, the elements 31, 32 are able to turn with respect to the axis A and slide axially along the axis A with respect to one another.
  • the elements 31, 32 are substantially annular elements that extend about the axis A and are concentric.
  • the elements 31, 32 have respective annular plates 35, 36 facing one another and respective radially external side walls 37, 38, which extend towards one another.
  • the lower element 31 has a substantially flat annular plate 35, and a radially external side wall 37, which is substantially cylindrical and extends from a radially external peripheral edge of the plate 35.
  • the element 31 comprises a substantially cylindrical central sleeve 41, arranged through the plate 35 in a position corresponding to a radially internal peripheral edge of the plate 35.
  • the sleeve 41 is sized in such a way that it can be inserted through the opening 3 and penetrate into the duct 4.
  • the plate 35 has a substantially plane bottom surface 42, which rests in use on the surface 10 of the flange 9.
  • the surface 42 is provided with a circumferential groove 43 that houses an axial seal ring 44 co-operating with the surface 10.
  • the annular plate 36 of the upper element 32 is optionally shaped in such a way as to reproduce the surface 10 of the flange 9.
  • the plate 36 has a top annular surface 45, optionally inclined radially inwards with respect to the axis A, which replaces the surface 10 of the flange 9 in the function of conveying the water into the drain assembly 1.
  • the side wall 38 of the plate 36 of the upper element 32 is substantially cylindrical and is set radially external around the wall 37 of the lower element 31.
  • the element 32 comprises a substantially cylindrical central sleeve 46, which extends from a radially internal peripheral edge of the plate 36 downwards and is inserted into the sleeve 41 of the element 31.
  • the sleeve 46 is provided with a radial seal ring 47, housed, for example, in an annular groove 48 formed on an external lateral surface of the sleeve 46 and co-operating with an internal lateral surface of the sleeve 41.
  • the elements 31, 32 are coupled together and define an internal annular chamber 49, delimited by the plates 35, 36 and by the walls 37, 38 and set around a central through duct 50, which extends along the axis A and is formed by the sleeves 41, 46.
  • the height-adjustment device 33 comprises supporting members 51, 52 carried by the elements 31, 32 and co-operating for supporting the two elements 31, 32 axially in a position selected from among a plurality of pre-set positions, corresponding to respective different axial heights of the component 30.
  • the supporting members 51, 52 are defined, respectively, by at least one series of steps 53 formed on one of the elements 31, 32 and having different axial heights (measured parallel to the axis A), and by at least one abutment step 54, formed on the other one of the elements 31, 32 and co-operating axially in contrast with a selected one of the steps 53.
  • the device 33 comprises two sets of steps 53, 54, which are formed on respective elements 31, 32 and extend towards one another from the plates 35, 36.
  • Each of the elements 31, 32 has steps 53, 54 having different heights (measured along the axis A starting from the plates 35, 36) and arranged circumferentially alongside one another along the walls 37, 38 within the chamber 49 delimited by the two elements 31, 32 coupled together.
  • Each element 31, 32 has at least one series (and preferably at least two series) of two or more steps 53, 54 (three steps, in the example illustrated) having increasing heights.
  • each element 31, 32 has three equal series of steps 53, 54 (each formed, for example, by three steps); the series are formed by equal steps 53, 54 and are angularly staggered along the respective walls 37, 38.
  • the steps 53 of each series of the lower element 31 have heights that increase in a pre-set direction (for example, the counterclockwise direction), whereas the steps 54 of each series of the upper element 32 have heights that increase in an opposite direction (for example, the clockwise direction).
  • the steps 53, 54 of the two elements 31, 32 are shaped in such a way that the steps 53 of the element 31 engage respective steps 54 of the other element 32 in a plurality of pre-set positions, which correspond to as many positions of the elements 31, 32 with respect to one another and precisely to different axial heights (along the axis A) of the component 30.
  • the steps 53, 54 of the two elements 31, 32 can be coupled in different ways, corresponding to respective heights of the component 30.
  • the steps 53, 54 are shaped so as to support axially the elements 31, 32 with respect to one another in a plurality of pre-set positions, in which the surfaces 42, 45 are at respective pre-set distances from one another and hence the component 30 has different heights.
  • the steps 54 of the upper element 32 rest on the steps 53 of the lower element 31. If the highest steps 54 of the upper element 32 engage (rest on) the lowest steps 53 of the lower element 31, then the two elements 31, 32 are in a first position with respect to one another where the distance between the surfaces 42, 45, and hence also the overall height of the component 30, are minimum.
  • the axial distance between the elements 31, 32 is modified, and hence also the height of the component 30.
  • the component 30 When the highest step 54 of the upper element 32 is coupled to the intermediate step 53 of the lower element 31, the component 30 has an intermediate height. When the highest step 54 of the upper element 32 engages the highest step 53 of the lower element 31, the component 30 has the maximum height.
  • the elements 31, 32 can be provided with a different number of steps 53, 54 with respect to what has been described herein purely by way of example.
  • the elements 31, 32 are coupled in the position corresponding to the desired height of the component 30, the elements 31, 32 are fixed together and, preferably, to the base body 2 via fixing members 55, for example threaded fixing members 55.
  • the fixing members 55 comprise screws 56 (just one of which is shown in Figure 1 ), each of which is set through a pair of aligned holes 57, 58 (shown in Figures 2, 3 ) formed in the two elements 31, 32 respectively.
  • the elements 31, 32 have holes 57, 58 arranged so as to define pairs of aligned holes in each of the pre-defined positions of the elements 31, 32.
  • the fixing members 55 not only connect the elements 31, 32 together, but also engage the flange 9 of the body 2 so as to fix the component 30 to the body 2.
  • the fixing members 55 comprise prolongation accessories 59 that are fitted on the screws 16 already provided for fixing the body 2 to the lid 5.
