Description

DOMAINE D'APPLICATION DE L'INVENTIONFIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention a trait au domaine des abris pour bassins d'agrément adoptant la forme d'une rotonde et notamment aux adaptations permettant de réaliser les éléments de toitures à mouvement rotatifs dans les meilleures conditions.The present invention relates to the field of shelters for amenity basins adopting the shape of a rotunda and in particular the adaptations to achieve the rotating roof elements in the best conditions.

DESCRIPTION DE L'ART ANTÉRIEURDESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART

Comme le montrent les exemples décrits dans les documents FR2719618 et FR2889547 , il existe dans l'art antérieur des abris pour bassins d'agrément tels notamment les spas qui proposent une forme de rotonde adoptant une forme sensiblement hémisphérique ou cylindrique. Il existe également dans l'art antérieur, des abris pour bassins d'agrément de type piscines qui proposent une forme de rotonde ou de semi-rotonde.As the examples described in the documents show FR2719618 and FR2889547 , there are in the prior art shelters for ornamental pools such spas that offer a form of rotunda adopting a substantially hemispherical or cylindrical shape. There is also in the prior art, shelters for pleasure pools type pools that offer a form of rotunda or semi-rotunda.

Pour ce faire, ces abris comprennent des éléments rotatifs de toiture formant chacun une portion angulaire de l'abri et tournant autour d'un même axe vertical. Ces éléments de toiture comprennent un bord inférieur circulaire reposant sur le sol, un panneau cylindrique, ainsi que des profils partant du bord supérieur du panneau et se rejoignant pour former une portion angulaire de toiture, les extrémités de liaison desdits éléments de toiture étant montées rotatifs autour d'un même axe vertical.To do this, these shelters comprise rotating roof elements each forming an angular portion of the shelter and rotating about the same vertical axis. These roof elements comprise a circular lower edge resting on the ground, a cylindrical panel, as well as profiles starting from the upper edge of the panel and joining to form an angular portion of roof, the connecting ends of said roof elements being rotatably mounted. around the same vertical axis.

Contrairement aux éléments de toiture classiques qui reposent de part et d'autre du bassin et présentent donc deux zones d'appui, les éléments rotatifs de toiture participant à cette rotonde sont en porte-à-faux en présentant une base en appui sur le sol ou sur la plage entourant le bassin et une extrémité haute en liaison pivot autour d'un axe vertical commun à une pluralité d'éléments rotatifs de toiture. Cet axe vertical constitue un deuxième point d'appui déporté par rapport au premier et doit donc être dimensionné à cet effet sans nuire à l'esthétique.Unlike conventional roof elements that rest on either side of the basin and therefore have two bearing zones, the rotary elements of the roof participating in this rotunda are cantilevered with a base resting on the ground or on the beach surrounding the basin and a high end pivotally connected about a vertical axis common to a plurality of rotating roof elements. This vertical axis constitutes a second support point offset from the first and must be dimensioned for this purpose without harming the aesthetics.

Une autre contrainte liée à la mise en oeuvre d'une forme de rotonde réside dans la mobilité des éléments de toiture rotatifs, mobilité qui doit permettre un accès le plus grand possible au bassin. Or, classiquement, un ou plusieurs éléments rotatifs restent fixes pour garantir le support des autres et la rigidité de l'ensemble. Ces éléments de toiture fixes sont alors surdimensionnés pour mener à bien cette fonction de support des autres.Another constraint related to the implementation of a rotunda shape lies in the mobility of the rotating roof elements, mobility which must allow the greatest possible access to the pool. However, conventionally, one or more rotating elements remain fixed to ensure the support of others and the rigidity of the whole. These fixed roof elements are then oversized to carry out this support function of others.

Une autre solution consiste à proposer une structure interne fixe de support desdits éléments de toiture.Another solution is to provide a fixed internal structure for supporting said roof elements.

Une autre contrainte réside dans le dimensionnement des éléments rotatifs qui, s'ils doivent tous pivoter, doivent alors présenter une structure gigogne permettant la rotation et l'effacement d'un élément rotatif par rapport à l'autre. Or, dans le cadre d'un abri présentant une rigidité optimisée, les épaisseurs des différents profilés formant le cadre support pour les panneaux de remplissage est susceptible de rendre un effet esthétique négatif.Another constraint resides in the dimensioning of the rotating elements which, if they must all rotate, must then have a trundle structure allowing rotation and erasure of a rotating element relative to the other. However, in the context of a shelter with optimized rigidity, the thicknesses of the different profiles forming the support frame for the filling panels is likely to render a negative aesthetic effect.

Ces différentes contraintes ont amené les concepteurs d'abri à proposer des structures de rotonde plus légères, moins mobiles et présentant des pièces dimensionnées spécifiquement pour chaque élément de toiture rotatif constituant la rotonde.These different constraints have led shelter designers to propose lighter, less mobile rotunda structures with parts dimensioned specifically for each rotating roof element constituting the rotunda.

DESCRIPTION DE L'INVENTIONDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Partant de cet état de fait, la demanderesse a mené des recherches visant à solutionner les inconvénients ci-dessus décrits. Ces recherches ont abouti à la conception et à la réalisation d'un abri pour bassins d'agrément présentant partiellement ou en totalité une configuration en rotonde et comprenant une pluralité d'éléments angulaires de toiture rotatifs formant une portion angulaire du dôme ou de la rotonde et tournant autour d'un même axe vertical, chaque élément angulaire de toiture rotatif comprenant une armature encadrant un panneau cylindrique de remplissage, l'armature comprenant un bord inférieur circulaire reposant sur le sol, un bord supérieur à partir duquel se projettent au moins deux profilés vers l'axe de rotation qui se rejoignant pour former avec ledit bord supérieur une armature pour une portion angulaire de panneau de remplissage formant toiture, lesdits éléments de toiture étant montés rotatifs autour d'un même axe vertical. Cet abri est remarquable en ce que chaque armature encadrant un panneau cylindrique de remplissage est équipée d'un profilé cintré selon l'axe de rotation de l'élément et disposée dans sa partie intérieure entre le bord inférieur et le bord supérieur d'une main courante.On the basis of this fact, the applicant has conducted research aimed at solving the disadvantages described above. This research led to the design and construction of an ornamental pond shelter with partial or full rotunda configuration and a plurality of rotating roof angular elements forming an angular portion of the dome or rotunda and turning around a same vertical axis, each rotary roof angular element comprising a frame framing a cylindrical filling panel, the frame comprising a circular lower edge resting on the ground, an upper edge from which at least two profiles project to the axis of rotation which joins to form with said upper edge a frame for an angular portion of roofing filling panel, said roof elements being rotatably mounted about the same vertical axis. This shelter is remarkable in that each frame framing a cylindrical filler panel is equipped with a bent section along the axis of rotation of the element and disposed in its inner part between the lower edge and the upper edge of a hand common.

La présence de ce profilé de main courante apporte de nombreux avantages en addition d'un appui pour l'utilisateur et d'une meilleure maniabilité de l'élément de toiture.The presence of this profile of handrail brings many benefits in addition to a support for the user and a better maneuverability of the roof element.

En effet, ce profilé supplémentaire permet de rigidifier l'armature et offre une surface d'appui au panneau de remplissage venant en renfort de celles proposées par l'armature encadrant ledit panneau.Indeed, this additional section makes it possible to stiffen the reinforcement and offers a support surface to the filler panel reinforcing those proposed by the frame flanking said panel.

Cet appui va ainsi permettre d'éviter une sur-épaisseur du panneau de remplissage. En effet, une surface cylindrique verticale est soumise aux contraintes dues au vent et doit pourvoir résister à de telles contraintes. L'abri de l'invention évite une solution technologique consistant à surdimensionner les armatures ou les épaisseurs des panneaux, ce qui augmenterait les coûts et diminuerait la maniabilité.This support will thus prevent an over-thickness of the filling panel. Indeed, a vertical cylindrical surface is subjected to the stresses due to the wind and must be able to withstand such stresses. The shelter of the invention avoids a technological solution of oversizing the reinforcements or the thickness of the panels, which would increase costs and reduce the maneuverability.

L'adjonction de ce profilé supplémentaire amène ainsi des effets techniques allant au-delà de la fonction de main courante en allégeant la structure tout en la rigidifiant.The addition of this additional profile thus brings technical effects beyond the handrail function by lightening the structure while stiffening it.

Cet abri peut adopter la forme d'une rotonde complète disposée par exemple au-dessus d'un spa ou d'une semi rotonde disposé à l'extrémité d'un abri haut.This shelter can take the form of a complete rotunda arranged for example above a spa or semi rotunda disposed at the end of a high shelter.

Selon une autre caractéristique, cet abri comprend un arbre vertical sur lequel viennent pivoter lesdits éléments de toiture rotatifs disposés au-dessous.According to another characteristic, this shelter comprises a vertical shaft on which are rotated said rotatable roof elements arranged below.

Selon la forme adoptée par l'abri, cet arbre est soutenu par un élément différent. Selon une première solution où l'abri adopte la forme d'une rotonde complète, il comprend une arche extérieure 300 formant portique et supportant au niveau de sa partie médiane ledit arbre vertical.Depending on the form adopted by the shelter, this tree is supported by a different element. In a first solution where the shelter adopts the shape of a complete rotunda, it comprises an outer arch 300 forming gantry and supporting at its middle portion said vertical shaft.

L'utilisation d'une structure de support extérieure additionnelle est particulièrement avantageuse en ce qu'elle évite l'utilisation d'une charpente support intérieure. En outre, elle évite le surdimensionnement et la fixation d'un ou plusieurs éléments de toiture afin d'assumer cette fonction. De plus, en évitant de rendre fixe un des éléments de toiture à des fins de support, elle garantit une totale mobilité angulaire de l'ensemble des éléments de toiture permettant un positionnement non limitatif de l'ensemble escamoté.The use of an additional external support structure is particularly advantageous in that it avoids the use of an inner support frame. In addition, it avoids oversizing and fixing one or more roof elements to assume this function. In addition, by avoiding making fixed one of the roof elements for support purposes, it ensures a total angular mobility of all the roof elements for a non-limiting positioning of the retracted assembly.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse contribuant à la stabilité et évitant un surdimensionnement, ledit portique présente un assemblage de trois montants et de trois demi-poutres disposés à 120 degrés.According to another particularly advantageous characteristic contributing to the stability and avoiding oversizing, said frame has an assembly of three uprights and three half-beams arranged at 120 degrees.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse contribuant à l'esthétique générale de l'abri, la partie supérieure des éléments de toiture rotatifs reprend la pente ou la courbe dudit portique.According to another particularly advantageous characteristic contributing to the overall appearance of the shelter, the upper part of the rotating roof elements takes up the slope or the curve of said frame.

Une autre caractéristique participant à l'esthétique réside dans le fait que lesdits éléments rotatifs sont dimensionnés de sorte qu'en position déployée, un rebord sur deux coïncide avantageusement avec le plan dans lequel se situent le montant et la demi-poutre.Another characteristic contributing to the aesthetics lies in the fact that said rotating elements are dimensioned so that in the deployed position, one edge on two coincides advantageously with the plane in which the upright and the half-beam are located.

Selon un choix technologique, l'abri adopte une configuration gigogne où les éléments de toiture adoptent une taille décroissante pour permettre leur escamotage à l'intérieur d'un seul.According to a technological choice, the shelter adopts a trundle configuration where the roof elements adopt a decreasing size to allow their retraction inside a single.

Lesdits éléments angulaires de toiture sont composés:

  • d'une première partie verticale constituée d'une portion cylindrique d'axe vertical matérialisé par l'arbre,
  • d'une deuxième partie sensiblement plane de forme triangulaire reprenant la pente éventuelle du portique et assurant la liaison entre le bord supérieur de la portion cylindrique et l'arbre.
Said angular roof elements are composed of:
  • a first vertical portion consisting of a cylindrical portion of vertical axis represented by the shaft,
  • a second substantially planar portion of triangular shape showing the possible slope of the gantry and ensuring the connection between the upper edge of the cylindrical portion and the shaft.

Selon une deuxième solution où l'abri adopte la forme d'une semi-rotonde disposée à l'extrémité d'un abri haut, l'extrémité haute dudit arbre vertical vient se fixer à une arche appartenant à l'armature d'un élément de toiture non rotatif et de dimension supérieure au plus grand des éléments rotatifs de toiture.According to a second solution where the shelter adopts the shape of a semi-rotunda disposed at the end of a high shelter, the upper end of said vertical shaft is attached to an arch belonging to the frame of an element non-rotating roof and larger than the largest of the rotating roof elements.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse, les extrémités hautes desdits éléments angulaires de toiture sont équipées d'une pièce de liaison équipée d'au moins une collerette préformée verticalement d'un orifice Pour former un manchon de guidage s'enfilant sur l'arbre, ledit manchon présente une épaisseur inférieure ou égale à la moitié de la pièce de liaison de façon à ce que le retournement de la pièce de liaison permette par symétrie la liaison pivot sur le même arbre d'un élément angulaire de toiture de dimensions identiques.According to another particularly advantageous characteristic, the high ends of said angular roof elements are equipped with a connecting piece equipped with at least one flange preformed vertically with an orifice to form a guide sleeve which is threaded on the shaft, said sleeve has a thickness less than or equal to half of the connecting piece so that the reversal of the connecting piece symmetrically allows the pivot connection on the same shaft of a roof element angular dimension identical.

Cette caractéristique permet d'utiliser des éléments de toiture identiques et réduit ainsi le coût d'une rotonde. En outre, elle permet d'utiliser les mêmes pièces de liaison pour des éléments de toiture différents. Une telle caractéristique est particulièrement adaptée à deux éléments de toiture identiques disposés en vis-à-vis. La paire d'éléments de toiture suivante est de dimensions inférieures mais peut utiliser des pièces de liaison identiques et mises en place selon le même principe à une hauteur inférieure le long dudit arbre et ainsi de suite.This feature allows the use of identical roof elements and thus reduces the cost of a rotunda. In addition, it allows to use the same connecting pieces for different roof elements. Such a feature is particularly suitable for two identical roof elements arranged vis-à-vis. The next pair of roof elements is smaller but can use identical connecting pieces and put in place according to the same principle at a lower height along said shaft and so on.

Selon l'invention, ledit abri est également remarquable en ce qu'il comprend deux types de pièces de liaison présentant des manchons disposés symétriquement de part et d'autre du plan de symétrie de la partie haute des éléments de toiture et utilisées selon le côté vers lequel s'escamote ledit élément.According to the invention, said shelter is also remarkable in that it comprises two types of connecting pieces having sleeves arranged symmetrically on either side of the plane of symmetry of the upper part of the roof elements and used according to the side to which retracts said element.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse de l'invention, la pièce de liaison est équipée de deux manchons angulairement décalés sur un même rayon et décalés en hauteur de sorte que, selon le manchon choisi, la hauteur à laquelle s'associe l'élément de toiture audit arbre diffère, permettant ainsi le pivotement d'éléments de toiture de dimensions identiques. Ledit décalage angulaire permet d'augmenter les possibilités de déplacement angulaire d'un élément de toiture par rapport à son vis-à-vis disposé symétriquement.According to another particularly advantageous characteristic of the invention, the connecting piece is equipped with two sleeves angularly offset on the same radius and offset in height so that, depending on the selected sleeve, the height with which the element of roofing said shaft differs, thus allowing the pivoting of roof elements of identical dimensions. Said angular offset makes it possible to increase the possibilities of angular displacement of a roof element with respect to its vis-à-vis arranged symmetrically.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse, la partie haute des éléments de toiture comprend deux extrémités de deux profilés dont la liaison est assurée par ladite pièce de liaison. Ladite pièce de liaison présente ainsi plusieurs fonctions et diminue le nombre de pièces nécessaires.According to another particularly advantageous feature, the upper part of the roof elements comprises two ends of two sections whose connection is provided by said connecting piece. Said connecting piece thus has several functions and reduces the number of parts required.

Les panneaux de remplissage encadrés par les profilés formant les châssis des éléments de toiture peuvent être réalisés dans une pluralité de matériau comme par exemple

  • du polycarbonate transparent ou non,
  • du verre,
  • du textile microperforé,
  • du pvc,
  • etc...
The filling panels framed by the profiles forming the frames of the roofing elements may be made of a plurality of materials such as, for example
  • transparent polycarbonate or not,
  • glass,
  • micro-perforated textile,
  • pvc,
  • etc ...

DESCRIPTION DES MODES DE RÉALISATION PRÉFÉRÉSDESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Tel qu'illustré sur le dessin de la figure 1, l'abri référencé A est du type de celui s'ouvrant et se refermant au-dessus d'un bassin d'agrément tel un spa non illustré.As illustrated on the drawing of the figure 1 , shelter referenced A is of the type that opens and closes above a pleasure pool such as a spa not shown.

Cet abri A se décompose en une pluralité d'éléments de toiture 100 reposant au sol S (ou sur une plage entourant le bassin) et dont la partie haute est en appui et pivote sur un arbre 200 supporté par une hyperstructure extérieure et supérieure composée d'un tripode 300 indépendant des éléments de toiture 100 et liée à ces derniers au moyen du seul arbre central 200.This shelter A is divided into a plurality of roof elements 100 resting on the ground S (or on a beach surrounding the basin) and whose upper part is supported and pivots on a shaft 200 supported by an outer and upper hyperstructure composed of a tripod 300 independent of the roof elements 100 and linked thereto by means of the single central shaft 200.

Ledit portique présente un assemblage de trois montants 310 et de trois demi-poutres 320 disposées à 120 degrés. Les éléments de toiture 100 se déplacent dans le volume intérieur délimité par cette structure extérieure 300.Said gantry has an assembly of three uprights 310 and three half-beams 320 arranged at 120 degrees. The roof elements 100 move in the interior volume delimited by this external structure 300.

Lesdits éléments angulaires de toiture 100 sont composés :

  • d'une première partie verticale 110 constituée d'une portion cylindrique d'axe vertical matérialisé par l'arbre 200,
  • d'une deuxième partie sensiblement plane de forme triangulaire 120 reprenant la pente éventuelle du portique 300 et assurant la liaison entre le bord supérieur de la portion cylindrique et l'arbre 200.
Said angular roof elements 100 are composed of:
  • a first vertical portion 110 consisting of a cylindrical portion of vertical axis represented by the shaft 200,
  • a second substantially planar portion of triangular shape 120 taking up the possible slope of the gantry 300 and ensuring the connection between the upper edge of the cylindrical portion and the shaft 200.

Chaque partie est encadrée par un ensemble de profilés 130 supportant des panneaux de remplissage P.Each part is framed by a set of profiles 130 supporting P filler panels.

Comme illustrés, les profilés 131 et 132 formant l'angle de la portion triangulaire 120 se rejoignent et sont liés au moyen d'une pièce de liaison 400 qui assure la liaison des extrémités jointives des profilés et leur liaison à l'arbre 200. Comme illustrées sur le dessin de la figure 2, les différentes pièces de liaison 400 sont identiques malgré des éléments de toiture de dimensions différentes et s'enfilent sur l'arbre 200 qui comprend, sur son extrémité inférieure, une butée axiale 210 assurant le support de cet empilement. Conformément à l'invention, chaque armature encadrant un panneau cylindrique de remplissage est équipée d'un profilé C cintré selon l'axe de rotation de l'élément et qui, disposé dans la partie intérieure entre le bord inférieur et le bord supérieur, forme une main couranteAs illustrated, the profiles 131 and 132 forming the angle of the triangular portion 120 meet and are connected by means of a connecting piece 400 which ensures the connection of the contiguous ends of the profiles and their connection to the shaft 200. illustrated on the drawing of the figure 2 , the different connecting pieces 400 are identical despite roof elements of different dimensions and are threaded on the shaft 200 which comprises, on its lower end, an axial stop 210 ensuring the support of this stack. According to the invention, each frame surrounding a cylindrical filler panel is equipped with a curved section C along the axis of rotation of the element and which, arranged in the inner part between the lower edge and the upper edge, forms a handrail

Comme illustrés sur le dessin de la figure 1, les différents éléments de toiture sont dimensionnés angulairement de sorte que leur rebord coïncide une fois sur deux avec le plan dans lequel s'inscrivent un montant 310 et la poutre 320 y associée du portique 300. Ainsi, selon le mode de réalisation illustré, les éléments angulaires de toiture 100 sont au nombre de six (6) et sont dimensionnés pour correspondre à sensiblement 60 degrés de portion angulaire des 360 degrés de l'abri total.As illustrated on the drawing of the figure 1 , the various roofing elements are dimensioned angularly so that their flange coincides once every two with the plane in which an amount 310 and the associated beam 320 and the gantry 300 are inscribed. Thus, according to the embodiment illustrated, the There are six (6) angular roof elements 100 and are dimensioned to correspond to substantially 60 degrees of angular portion of the 360 degrees of the total shelter.

Comme illustré sur le dessin de la figure 2, l'élément de toiture 100 le plus grand, comporte une troisième partie 140 formant façade constituée de panneaux transversaux dimensionnés pour assurer la fermeture du volume de l'abri A malgré la taille réduite de l'élément de toiture le plus petit venant rejoindre ladite façade en position fermée.As illustrated on the drawing of the figure 2 , the largest roofing element 100, comprises a third portion 140 forming a facade consisting of transverse panels sized to ensure the closure of the volume of the shelter A despite the reduced size of the smallest roof element joining said facade in closed position.

La présence du trépied de support des éléments de toiture 100 permet de bénéficier d'une totale liberté angulaire quand à la position ouverte escamotée illustrée sur le dessin de la figure 2 The presence of the support tripod of the roof elements 100 makes it possible to benefit from a total angular freedom when in the retracted open position illustrated in the drawing of FIG. figure 2

Tel qu'illustré sur les dessins des figures 3 et 4, l'abri (ou la portion d'abri) référencé A' dans son ensemble se compose d'une pluralité d'éléments de toiture hauts référencés E' et adopte à une extrémité une forme de semi-rotonde R'.As illustrated on the drawings of figures 3 and 4 , the shelter (or the shelter portion) referenced A 'as a whole consists of a plurality of high roof elements referenced E' and adopts at one end a semi-rotunda shape R '.

Plus précisément, l'abri A' est formé d'éléments de toiture E1' rectilignes susceptibles de se mouvoir selon la double flèche F1' en translation au-dessus de son bassin et d'éléments de toiture E2' formant des portions angulaires de la semi-rotonde R' et susceptibles de se mouvoir selon la double flèche F2' en rotation autour d'un même axe matérialisé par l'arbre 100'.More specifically, the shelter A 'is formed of rectilinear roof elements E1' capable of moving along the double arrow F1 'in translation over its basin and roof elements E2' forming angular portions of the roof. semi-rotunda R 'and capable of moving along the double arrow F2' in rotation about the same axis materialized by the shaft 100 '.

Comme illustrés, les éléments de toiture rectilignes E1' se composent d'un châssis formé de deux éléments de charpente 200' entretoisés par des traverses 300', châssis servant d'encadrement et de support à un ou plusieurs panneaux de remplissage P'. Plus précisément, les éléments de charpente 200' sont formés de deux montants 210' supportant deux poutres 220' assemblées au niveau du plan de symétrie de l'abri en formant un angle pour constituer un faîte à la toiture de l'abri A'.As illustrated, the rectilinear roof elements E1 'consist of a frame formed of two frame members 200' braced by sleepers 300 ', frame serving as a frame and support for one or more filling panels P'. More specifically, the frame members 200 'are formed of two uprights 210' supporting two beams 220 'assembled at the plane of symmetry of the shelter at an angle to form a ridge to the roof of the shelter A'.

Lesdits panneaux de remplissage P' peuvent être réalisés dans une pluralité de matériaux comme par exemple

  • du polycarbonate transparent ou non,
  • du verre,
  • du textile microperforé,
  • du pvc,
  • etc...
Said filling panels P 'can be made in a plurality of materials such as for example
  • transparent polycarbonate or not,
  • glass,
  • micro-perforated textile,
  • pvc,
  • etc ...

Conformément à l'invention, l'élément de charpente extérieur 200' situé à une extrémité de l'abri A' assure au moyen de ses poutres 220', le support d'un arbre 100' autour duquel vont venir pivoter les éléments angulaires de toiture E2' constituant la rotonde R' pour passer de la position illustrée par le dessin de la figure 3 à la position illustrée par le dessin de la figure 4.According to the invention, the outer frame member 200 'located at one end of the shelter A' ensures by means of its beams 220 ', the support of a shaft 100' around which will rotate the angular elements of roof E2 'constituting the rotunda R' to pass from the position illustrated by the drawing of the figure 3 at the position illustrated by the drawing of the figure 4 .

Conformément à l'invention, chaque armature encadrant un panneau cylindrique de remplissage est équipée d'un profilé C' cintré selon l'axe de rotation de l'élément et qui, disposé dans la partie intérieure entre le bord inférieur et le bord supérieur, forme une main courante.According to the invention, each frame framing a cylindrical filling panel is equipped with a profile C 'bent along the axis of rotation of the element and which, arranged in the inner part between the lower edge and the upper edge, forms a handrail.

Comme illustrés sur cette dernière figure, les éléments angulaires viennent complètement s'escamoter à l'intérieur de l'élément de toiture rectiligne auquel ils sont liés, autorisant ainsi un accès total à l'intérieur de l'abri A'.As illustrated in this last figure, the angular elements are completely retracted inside the rectilinear roof element to which they are connected, thus allowing full access to the interior of the shelter A '.

Comme illustrée, si la partie rotonde R' adopte bien une structure gigogne, elle adopte une structure gigogne symétrique et permet l'utilisation d'éléments angulaires de toiture identiques. Ainsi, selon le mode de réalisation illustré, ladite rotonde R' comporte cinq (5) éléments angulaires de toiture rotatifs E2' avec quatre éléments identiques deux à deux et un cinquième unique plus petit en hauteur que ceux de la paire plus petite. Ainsi, lorsqu'ils sont par paire, les éléments de toitures sont identiques et sont disposés symétriquement l'un par rapport à l'autre sans empêcher l'escamotage.As illustrated, if the rotunda portion R 'adopts a trundle structure, it adopts a symmetrical trundle structure and allows the use of identical angular roof elements. Thus, according to the illustrated embodiment, said rotunda R 'comprises five (5) rotating roof angular elements E2' with four identical elements two by two and a fifth single smaller in height than those of the smaller pair. Thus, when they are in pairs, the roof elements are identical and are arranged symmetrically relative to each other without preventing retraction.

Cette spécificité est rendue possible par les choix technologiques particulièrement judicieux réunis dans la liaison pivot mise à oeuvre par l'arbre 100' et qui apparaissent sur les dessin des figures 5, 6 et 7.This specificity is made possible by the particularly judicious technological choices gathered in the pivot connection implemented by the shaft 100 'and which appear on the drawings of the figures 5 , 6 and 7 .

Ces éléments angulaires E2' sont, selon le mode de réalisation illustré, composés :

  • d'une première partie verticale 410' constituée d'une portion cylindrique d'axe vertical matérialisé par l'arbre 100',
  • d'une deuxième partie sensiblement plane de forme triangulaire 420' reprenant la pente du toit formé par l'abri et assurant la liaison entre le bord supérieur de la portion cylindrique 410' et l'arbre 100'.
These angular elements E2 'are, according to the illustrated embodiment, composed of:
  • a first vertical portion 410 'consisting of a cylindrical portion of vertical axis materialized by the shaft 100',
  • a second substantially planar portion of triangular shape 420 'taking up the slope of the roof formed by the shelter and providing the connection between the upper edge of the cylindrical portion 410' and the shaft 100 '.

Ladite deuxième partie 420' se compose donc d'un rebord circulaire adoptant la forme circulaire de la rotonde et de deux profilés 421' et 422' reliés à une première extrémité au rebord supérieur de la portion cylindrique et se rejoignant à une extrémité qui va venir en liaison avec l'arbre 100'.Said second portion 420 'thus consists of a circular rim adopting the circular shape of the rotunda and two sections 421' and 422 'connected at one end to the upper rim of the cylindrical portion and joining at an end that will come in connection with the shaft 100 '.

La liaison entre les deux profilés 421' et 422' bordant la partie haute de l'élément de toiture E2' et formant la partie triangulaire et la liaison entre cette partie haute et l'arbre 100' sont réalisées au moyen d'une pièce de liaison.The connection between the two sections 421 'and 422' bordering the upper part of the roof element E2 'and forming the triangular part and the connection between this upper part and the shaft 100' are formed by means of a piece of link.

Selon un mode de réalisation, cette pièce de liaison est identique pour chaque élément angulaire de toiture E2'.According to one embodiment, this connecting piece is identical for each corner element of roof E2 '.

Néanmoins, selon le mode de réalisation illustré, deux types de pièces de liaison 500a' et 500b' (cf figures 6 et 7) présentant chacune un manchon disposé, selon la pièce de liaison, symétriquement de part et d'autre du plan de symétrie de la partie haute des éléments de toiture et utilisés selon le côté vers lequel s'escamote ledit élément.Nevertheless, according to the illustrated embodiment, two types of connecting pieces 500a 'and 500b' (cf. Figures 6 and 7 ) each having a sleeve disposed, according to the connecting piece, symmetrically on either side of the plane of symmetry of the upper part of the roof elements and used according to the side towards which retracts said element.

La pièce de liaison 500a' comprend un corps 510a' d'où se projettent, selon l'angle du triangle formant la partie haute de l'élément de toiture E2', deux profils 520a' et 530a' susceptibles de s'emboîter dans les extrémités creuses se rejoignant des profilés 421' et 422'. Ce corps 510a' est en outre préformé d'un manchon 540a' alésé d'un orifice 541a'.The connecting piece 500a 'comprises a body 510a' from which project, according to the angle of the triangle forming the upper part of the roof element E2 ', two profiles 520a' and 530a 'capable of fitting into each other. hollow ends joining profiles 421 'and 422'. This body 510a 'is further preformed with a sleeve 540a 'bored with an orifice 541a'.

Selon la pièce 500a' ou 500b', ces collerettes présentent la même épaisseur et leur alésage est d'un même diamètre leur permettant de proposer une liaison pivot glissant avec l'arbre 100' comme illustré sur le dessin de la figure 5.According to the part 500a 'or 500b', these collars have the same thickness and their bore is of the same diameter allowing them to provide a sliding pivot connection with the shaft 100 'as illustrated in the drawing of the figure 5 .

La présence de deux collerettes et donc de deux possibilités de liaison à l'arbre 100', possibilités à rayon équivalent mais à hauteur différente, se justifie à l'étude de la figure 5 qui montre que le décalage des deux collerettes permet l'utilisation à une même hauteur d'élément angulaires de toiture de dimensions égales. Ainsi, pour une même hauteur de partie supérieure d'élément de toiture, les deux pièces de liaison présentent deux possibilités de position de collerettes s'inscrivant dans la hauteur totale de la pièce de liaison et autorisant l'utilisation d'éléments de toiture de mêmes dimensions. De plus, le décalage angulaire à rayon constant permet une plus grande course entre deux éléments de toiture de mêmes dimensions et disposés en vis-à-vis.The presence of two flanges and therefore two possibilities of connection to the shaft 100 ', possibilities with equivalent radius but different height, is justified in the study of the figure 5 which shows that the offset of the two flanges allows the use at the same height of angular roof elements of equal dimensions. Thus, for the same height of the upper part of the roof element, the two connecting pieces have two possibilities of position of flanges forming part of the total height of the connecting piece and allowing the use of roof elements of the roof. same dimensions. In addition, the angular offset constant radius allows a greater stroke between two roof elements of the same dimensions and arranged vis-à-vis.

Pour faciliter cette rotation, les pièces de liaison sont en outre préformées pour présenter des formes complémentaires coopérant une fois que les pièces de liaison de deux éléments de toiture de dimensions identiques sont positionnées sur l'arbre 100' et permettant une mobilité angulaire la plus grande possible. Ainsi, chaque pièce de liaison est préformée de la contreforme de la collerette de la pièce de liaison de l'élément de toiture en vis-à-vis.To facilitate this rotation, the connecting pieces are further preformed to present complementary shapes cooperating once the connecting pieces of two roof elements of identical dimensions are positioned on the shaft 100 'and allowing a greater angular mobility. possible. Thus, each connecting piece is preformed the counterform of the collar of the connecting piece of the roof element vis-à-vis.

Afin de soutenir cet assemblage de pièces pivotantes, l'arbre 100' est associé, au moyen d'un palier 110', à la poutre 220' et comprend, sur son extrémité inférieure, une butée axiale 120' amovible. Comme illustrée, l'extrémité haute dudit arbre vertical 100' vient se fixer à une arche 220 de dimension supérieure au plus grand des éléments rotatifs de toiture formant la rotonde R'.In order to support this assembly of pivoting parts, the shaft 100 'is associated, by means of a bearing 110', to the beam 220 'and comprises, on its lower end, a removable axial abutment 120'. As illustrated, the upper end of said vertical shaft 100 'is fixed to an arch 220 of greater dimension than the largest of the rotating roof elements forming the rotunda R'.

Afin d'éviter que ladite butée inférieure 120' ne supporte seule l'ensemble des contraintes, des colliers d'appui axial 130' sont fixés à l'arbre 100' en s'intercalant entre les collerettes 550' ou 540' des pièces de liaison 500'. Afin de faciliter cette fonction lesdits colliers sont associés à des entretoises en nylon.In order to prevent said lower abutment 120 'from supporting all the stresses alone, axial bearing collars 130' are fixed to the shaft 100 'by interposing between the flanges 550' or 540 'of the parts link 500 '. In order to facilitate this function, said collars are associated with nylon spacers.

Comme illustré sur le dessin de la figure 8, ledit profilé cintré C est équipé sur sa périphérie extérieure de cales de fixation assurant la fonction de points d'appui et de fixation des panneaux de remplissage 410.As illustrated on the drawing of the figure 8 , said curved profile C is equipped on its outer periphery with fixing wedges ensuring the function of points of support and fixing of the filling panels 410.

En outre, comme illustrée sur le dessin des figures 9 et 9a, chaque armature comprend deux montants auxquels viennent se fixer les extrémités dudit profilé cintré C, ce dernier venant se fixer dans l'épaisseur desdits montants. Comme illustrée, la largeur de la main courante C est intégrée dans l'épaisseur ou dans la largeur définie par le profil des montants. Ainsi, la présence dudit profilé cintré C formant main courante ne constitue pas un obstacle à la rotation des modules de toiture.In addition, as illustrated in the drawing of Figures 9 and 9a each frame comprises two uprights to which are fixed the ends of said curved section C, the latter being fixed in the thickness of said uprights. As illustrated, the width of the handrail C is integrated in the thickness or in the width defined by the profile of the amounts. Thus, the presence of said curved profile C forming a handrail does not constitute an obstacle to the rotation of the roof modules.

Le mode de réalisation de l'abri A" illustré par les dessins des figures 10 et 11 propose une configuration en quatre modules de toiture tournants 100", 200", 300" et 400" par rapport au portique. Comme illustrés, ces modules de toiture sont entièrement mobiles du fait de leur taille ajustée et leur configuration gigogne. Un joint de type brosse assure la fermeture du volume laissé libre entre les modules. Les éléments de toiture peuvent alors tourner sans obstacle dans les deux sens.The embodiment of the shelter A "illustrated by the drawings of the figures 10 and 11 proposes a configuration in four rotating roof modules 100 ", 200", 300 "and 400" with respect to the gantry. As illustrated, these roof modules are fully mobile because of their adjusted size and their nesting configuration. A brush-type seal closes the volume left free between the modules. The roof elements can then turn unobstructed in both directions.

Selon la configuration proposée les quatre modules de toiture présentent deux à deux le même angle de toiture. Ainsi, le module de toiture 100" présente le même angle que le module 300". De même, l'angle du module 200" est identique à celui proposé par le module 400".According to the proposed configuration the four roof modules present two by two the same roof angle. Thus, the roof module 100 "has the same angle as the module 300". Similarly, the angle of the module 200 "is identical to that proposed by the module 400".

De plus, l'angle formé par la toiture des modules 100" et 300" correspond sensiblement au double de celui de la toiture des modules 200" et 400". Cette répartition angulaire autorise la configuration ouverte illustrée par le dessin de la figure 11 où les deux modules 200" et 400" s'inscrivent dans l'angle formé par les deux modules 100" et 300" se superposant.In addition, the angle formed by the roof of the modules 100 "and 300" is substantially twice that of the roof modules 200 "and 400". This distribution angular allows the open configuration illustrated by the drawing of the figure 11 where the two modules 200 "and 400" are inscribed in the angle formed by the two modules 100 "and 300" overlapping.

La juxtaposition des deux modules 200" et 400" est rendue possible sans conflit au niveau de l'arbre de rotation au moyen de la caractéristique illustrée par le dessin de la figure 12 qui propose que le sommet réunissant les profilés encadrant le panneau triangulaire de toiture soit décalé par rapport à l'axe de rotation.The juxtaposition of the two modules 200 "and 400" is made possible without conflict at the level of the rotation shaft by means of the characteristic illustrated by the drawing of the figure 12 which proposes that the vertex joining the profiles framing the triangular roof panel is offset with respect to the axis of rotation.

On comprend que l'abri qui vient d'être ci-dessus décrit et représenté, l'a été en vue d'une divulgation plutôt que d'une limitation. Bien entendu, divers aménagements, modifications et améliorations pourront être apportés à l'exemple ci-dessus, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.It is understood that the shelter that has just been described and shown above, was for the purpose of disclosure rather than limitation. Of course, various arrangements, modifications and improvements may be made to the example above, without departing from the scope of the invention.

Shelter (A') according to claim 12, characterised by the fact that the top ends of said angular roof elements are equipped with a connecting part (500a', 500b') equipped with at least one collar preformed vertically with an orifice in order to form a guide sleeve fitting on the shaft, said sleeve having a thickness less than or equal to one half of a connecting part so that the turning over of the connecting part allows by symmetry the pivot connection on the same shaft of an angular roof element of identical dimensions.
  14. Shelter (A') according to claim 12, characterised by the fact that it comprises two types of connecting part (500a' and 500b') each having a sleeve arranged, according to the connecting part, symmetrically on either side of the symmetry plane of the top part of the roof elements and used according to the side towards which said element retracts.
  15. Shelter according to claim 13, characterised by the fact that said connecting part is equipped with two sleeves angularly offset on the same radius and offset in height so that, according to the sleeve chosen, the height with which the roof element is associated with said shaft differs, thus allowing the pivoting of roof elements of identical dimensions.
  16. Shelter according to claim 13 or 14, characterised by the fact that the top part of the roof elements consists of two ends of two profiles the connection of which is provided by said connecting part (500a' or 500b').
  17. Shelter according to claim 13 or 14, characterised by the fact that said shaft (100') comprises, on the bottom end thereof, a removable axial stop (120').
  18. Shelter according to claim 13 or 14, characterised by the fact that the shaft (100') is associated with rings (130') forming an axial stop for the top ends of the roof elements and interposed between the stacked collars.
  19. Shelter according to claim 13 or 14, characterised by the fact that the rotating angular elements are composed of:
    - a first vertical part (410') consisting of a cylindrical portion with a vertical axis represented by the shaft (100'),
    - a second substantially flat part with a triangular shape (420') reproducing the slope of the roof formed by the shelter and providing the connection between the top edge of the cylindrical portion (410') and the shaft (100').
  20. Shelter according to claim 1, characterised by the fact that each frame of rotating angular roof elements comprises two uprights to which the ends of said curved profile are fixed, the latter being fixed in the thickness of said uprights so that it does not form, with respect to the latter, an inward projection opposite said uprights.
  21. Shelter according to claim 1, characterised by the fact that said curved profile is equipped, on the external periphery thereof, with fixing blocks fulfilling the function of points for supporting and fixing the fill-in panels.
  22. Shelter according to claim 1, characterised by the fact that the top joining the profiles framing the triangular roof panel is offset with respect to the rotation axis of said rotating roof element.
