Description

Construction modulaire pour robinet électronique La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif formant robinet, notamment électronique, en particulier pour un lavabo, en particulier destiné à être utilisé avec une grande fréquence, par exemple dans un hôpital, une aire d'autoroute, des lieux publics, etc.  The present invention relates to a valve device, especially an electronic device, in particular for a sink, in particular intended to be used with a high frequency, for example in a hospital, a motorway area, places public, etc.
On connaît déjà des dispositifs formant robinet électronique pour lavabo de ce genre qui comportent un circuit d'eau entre un point d'arrivée d'eau et un point de ' sortie d'eau, des moyens de commande de 1-'.ouverture/fermeture du circuit d'eau, notamment une électrovanne, l'ensemble étant intégré dans une pièce principale appelée corps qui est fixée à la vasque du lavabo. Le dispositif formant robinet de l'art antérieur présente des inconvénients. En particulier, le corps qui constitue la pièce principale du robinet est de structure complexe, devant recevoir ou former en son sein les différents éléments constitutifs tels que 1 ' électrovanne, l'entrée, la sortie, le tuyau d'alimentation, un dispositif éventuel de mitigeage, etc. En outre, lorsque le fonctionnement du robinet est défectueux, il est nécessaire pour y remédier de démonter le corps de la vasque, ce qui nécessite d'effectuer une déconnexion complète de tous les éléments du réseau d'alimentation en eau . Electronic sink faucet devices of this type are already known which comprise a water circuit between a water inlet point and a water outlet point, opening control means closure of the water circuit, including a solenoid valve, the assembly being integrated into a main room called body which is attached to the basin of the sink. The valve device of the prior art has drawbacks. In particular, the body which constitutes the main part of the tap is of complex structure, to receive or form within it the various constituent elements such as the solenoid valve, the inlet, the outlet, the supply pipe, a possible device mitigating, etc. In addition, when the operation of the faucet is defective, it is necessary to remedy the disassembly of the body of the basin, which requires a complete disconnection of all elements of the water supply network.
La présente invention vise à surmonter les inconvénients de l'art antérieur en proposant un dispositif formant robinet, notamment pour lavabo, dont la maintenance, et notamment la possibilité d'accéder aux différents organes du circuit d'eau entre le point d'entrée et le point de sortie, par exemple les organes assurant l'ouverture/fermeture du circuit d'eau, est grandement facilitée par rapport à l'art antérieur, en permettant notamment d'effectuer une maintenance de ce genre sans avoir à effectuer une déconnexion du réseau d'alimentation en eau. The present invention aims to overcome the drawbacks of the prior art by providing a valve device, especially for washbasin, including maintenance, and in particular the possibility of accessing the various organs of the water circuit between the point of entry and the point of exit, for example the organs ensuring the opening / closing of the water circuit, is greatly facilitated over the prior art, including allowing such maintenance without having to perform a disconnection of the water supply network.
Suivant l'invention, un dispositif formant robinet, notamment électronique pour lavabo, notamment à grande fréquence d'utilisation, qui définit un circuit d'eau entre un point d'arrivée d'eau et un point de sortie d'eau et qui comporte des moyens d'ouverture/fermeture du circuit d'eau, est tel que défini à la revendication 1, des perfectionnements étant définis aux sous- revendications . According to the invention, a valve device, in particular an electronic sink device, in particular with a high frequency of use, which defines a water circuit between a water inlet point and a water outlet point and which comprises means for opening / closing the water circuit is as defined in claim 1, improvements being defined in the subclaims.
Ainsi, suivant l'invention, grâce à la coque formant enveloppe extérieure du robinet qui est indépendante de l'élément technique du robinet, et notamment du circuit d'eau et du dispositif d'ouverture/fermeture du circuit d'eau, lorsqu'il convient d'effectuer des opérations de maintenance sur le circuit ou le dispositif d'ouverture/fermeture, par exemple une électrovanne, il n'est pas nécessaire de démonter l'ensemble du robinet de la vasque et il suffit simplement de désolidariser la coque de l'embase pour avoir ainsi accès facilement à l'élément technique. En outre, un avantage supplémentaire est qu'on peut prévoir une pluralité de coques ayant des aspects extérieurs différents les uns des autres, correspondant à différents produits commerciaux, que l'on peut adapter chacune à un seul et même élément dit technique, diminuant ainsi le nombre de références en stock. En outre, la mise en œuvre de nouveau produit est facilitée par le fait que l'on peut travailler soit sur l'élément technique et conserver la même coque, soit conserver le même élément technique et modifier la coque, ce qui démultiplie les possibilités de nouveaux robinets et simplifie leur conception et réalisation. Thus, according to the invention, thanks to the shell forming the outer casing of the valve which is independent of the technical element of the valve, and in particular the water circuit and the opening / closing device of the water circuit, when it is necessary to perform maintenance operations on the circuit or the opening / closing device, for example a solenoid valve, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire faucet of the basin and it is sufficient to simply detach the hull the base for easy access to the technical element. In addition, an additional advantage is that it is possible to provide a plurality of shells having external aspects different from each other, corresponding to different commercial products, which can each be adapted to one and the same technical element, thus decreasing the number of references in stock. In addition, the implementation of new product is facilitated by the fact that one can work either on the technical element and keep the same shell, or keep the same technical element and modify the shell, This increases the possibilities of new faucets and simplifies their design and construction.
Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, l'élément technique, notamment le point de sortie d'eau, est également fixé de manière amovible à l'ouverture de sortie d'eau de la coque. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the technical element, in particular the water outlet point, is also removably attached to the water outlet opening of the shell.
Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les moyens d'ouverture/fermeture du circuit d'eau comportent une électrovanne. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the opening / closing means of the water circuit comprise a solenoid valve.
Suivant un mode de réalisation particulièrement simple de l'invention, l'embase est en forme de disque sensiblement circulaire et les moyens de fixation amovible de l'embase à l'ouverture d'embase de la coque sont- constitués d'une part d'au moins un ergot, de préférence de plusieurs ergots, faisant saillie latéralement de la paroi latérale de l'embase, et d'autre part d'au moins une rainure, de préférence de plusieurs rainures, formées dans la paroi intérieure du bord de l'ouverture, la ou les rainures recevant le ou les ergots pour permettre la fixation amovible de l'embase à l'ouverture d'embase de la coque. According to a particularly simple embodiment of the invention, the base is in the form of a substantially circular disk and the means for detachably fixing the base to the opening of the base of the shell are made of, on the one hand, at least one lug, preferably several lugs, projecting laterally from the side wall of the base, and secondly from at least one groove, preferably several grooves, formed in the inner wall of the edge of the lug. the opening, the groove or grooves receiving the lug or pins to allow the removable attachment of the base to the base opening of the shell.
Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, chaque ergot est disposé à distance de la face inférieure de l'embase et chaque rainure correspondante comporte un premier tronçon s' étendant à partir du bord extérieur de l'ouverture d'embase en ayant une dimension transversale complémentaire de celle de l'ergot, sur une hauteur correspondant à la distance entre la face inférieure de l'embase et l'ergot ; et un deuxième tronçon de plus grande largeur que le premier tronçon, notamment d'une largeur comprise entre 1,1 et 1,5 fois la largeur du premier tronçon, de sorte qu'une fois l'ergot introduit dans le premier tronçon, puis coulissé vers le haut jusqu'à atteindre le deuxième tronçon, par une simple rotation de quelques degrés de la coque, l'ergot vient se bloquer contre l'épaulement formé entre le deuxième tronçon et le premier tronçon pour ainsi bloquer dans le sens vertical tout mouvement relatif mutuel entre la coque et l'embase, une simple rotation de quelques degrés dans l'autre sens permettant le déblocage. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, each lug is disposed at a distance from the lower face of the base and each corresponding groove comprises a first section extending from the outer edge of the base opening having a transverse dimension complementary to that of the lug, on a height corresponding to the distance between the lower face of the base and the lug; and a second section of greater width than the first section, in particular with a width between 1.1 and 1.5 times the width of the first section, so that once the ergot is introduced in the first section, then slid upwards until reaching the second section, by a simple rotation of a few degrees of the hull, the lug is locked against the shoulder formed between the second section and the first section so as to block in the vertical direction any mutual relative movement between the shell and the base, a simple rotation of a few degrees in the other direction for unlocking.
Suivant un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention qui peut également être complémentaire des modes de réalisation précédents, on peut prévoir au moins une protubérance, de préférence plusieurs protubérances, qui pénètre chacune dans des encoches complémentaires respectives, chaque protubérance s 'étendant sur toute la hauteur de la paroi latérale de l'embase, entre la face, inférieure et la face supérieure de l'embase, des trous traversant étant formés dans la paroi de la coque au niveau des encoches et des trous étant formés dans chaque protubérance, de sorte que lorsque l'embase est insérée dans l'ouverture d'embase, le ou les trous des encoches sont en correspondance avec le ou les trous des protubérances et on peut alors les visser respectivement par l'intermédiaire d'une vis. According to another embodiment of the invention which may also be complementary to the preceding embodiments, at least one protuberance, preferably several protuberances, may be provided which each enters respective complementary notches, each protuberance extending over any the height of the side wall of the base, between the lower face and the upper face of the base, through holes being formed in the wall of the shell at the notches and holes being formed in each protuberance, so that when the base is inserted into the base opening, the hole or notches of the notches are in correspondence with the hole or holes of the protuberances and can then be screwed respectively by means of a screw.
Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la vis permettant le vissage au niveau des trous que se font face est une vis à tête conique, de sorte que de l'extérieur, plus on tente de la dévisser pour tenter de l'extraire, plus la tête conique pénètre dans le trou de l'encoche par l'intérieur et vient porter contre son bord, bloquant encore plus le déplacement mutuel entre la coque et l'embase. Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la coque comporte un couvercle. En particulier, ce couvercle peut comporter des moyens pour bloquer de manière amovible l'élément technique à l'ouverture de sortie d'eau de la coque, notamment le point de sortie d'eau de l'élément technique. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the screw allowing screwing at the holes that face each other is a screw with conical head, so that from the outside, the more one tries to unscrew it to try to To extract, the more the conical head penetrates into the hole of the notch from the inside and comes to bear against its edge, blocking even more the mutual displacement between the shell and the base. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the shell comprises a lid. In particular, this cover may comprise means for removably locking the technical element to the water outlet opening of the shell, in particular the water outlet point of the technical element.

L'élément 1 technique comporte une embase 3 sensiblement en forme de disque circulaire ou galette destinée à être fixée d'une part à la vasque d'un lavabo et d'autre part de manière amovible à la paroi intérieure du bord 4 d'une ouverture 5 d'embase formée dans la partie inférieure de la coque 2. Cette embase 3 est représentée de manière plus précise aux Figures 5 et 6. L'embase 3 est percée de deux trous traversants 6 et 7 qui reçoivent deux embouts d'extrémité 8 et 9 respectifs destinés au raccordement au réseau d'alimentation respectivement en eau chaude et eau froide par des tuyaux (non représentés aux figures) arrivant par le dessous de l'embase 3. In Figure 1, there is shown the various components of the technical element 1 according to an exploded view. Figure 2 shows the same element. 1 technique of Figure 1 in the assembled state. The technical element 1 comprises a base 3 substantially in the form of a circular disk or slab intended to be fixed firstly to the basin of a sink and secondly removably to the inner wall of the edge 4 of a 5 opening base formed in the lower part of the shell 2. This base 3 is shown more precisely in Figures 5 and 6. The base 3 is pierced with two through holes 6 and 7 which receive two end caps 8 and 9 respectively for connection to the supply network respectively water hot and cold water by pipes (not shown in the figures) arriving from below the base 3.
L'élément 1 technique comporte, à la suite de l'embase 3, un dispositif 10 mitigeur qui se fixe sur la face supérieure de l'embase 3. Suivant un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, on pourrait prévoir ce dispositif mitigeur en amont de l'embase, c'est à dire au niveau de la vasque et un seul conduit d'alimentation en eau, issu du mitigeur au niveau de la vasque, arrivant dans l'embase, au lieu de deux conduits comme suivant le mode de réalisation de l'invention représenté aux figures. La présente invention couvre bien évidemment ces deux modes de réalisation, le point d'arrivée d'eau étant constitué dans un cas des deux embouts 8,9 et dans l'autre cas d'un seul embout. The technical element 1 comprises, following the base 3, a mixing device 10 which is fixed on the upper face of the base 3. According to another embodiment of the invention, this mixing device could be provided upstream of the base, that is to say at the level of the basin and a single water supply pipe, from the mixing valve at the basin, arriving in the base, instead of two ducts as following the embodiment of the invention shown in the figures. The present invention obviously covers these two embodiments, the water inlet point being constituted in one case of the two ends 8,9 and in the other case of a single endpiece.
Le dispositif 10 mitigeur est positionné par rapport à l'embase 3 par la coopération de trois trous 16 cylindriques qui viennent coiffer trois ergots 17 issus de la face supérieure de l'embase et de vis qui assure la fixation mutuelle des trous 16 et des ergots 17. Le dispositif mitigeur comporte en outre un conduit 18 horizontal percé de deux trous (non visibles aux figures) en face des embouts 8 et 9 et par lesquels l'eau peut passer dans le conduit 18 où se trouve un cylindre mitigeur assurant le mélange des ■ eaux chaude et froide issues des embouts 8 et 9 pour permettre la sortie du mélange vers le haut par un trou 19 débouchant à la partie supérieure de l'étage 10 mitigeur. The device 10 mixer is positioned relative to the base 3 by the cooperation of three cylindrical holes 16 which cap three lugs 17 from the upper face of the base and screw which ensures the mutual attachment of the holes 16 and lugs 17. The mixing device further comprises a horizontal duct 18 pierced with two holes (not visible in the figures) in front of the end pieces 8 and 9 and through which the water can pass into the duct 18 where there is a mixer cylinder mixing hot and cold water from the tips 8 and 9 to allow the exit of the mixing upwards through a hole 19 opening at the top of the mixer stage 10.
Au-dessus du dispositif mitigeur se trouve une électrovanne 11 fixée au dispositif mitigeur par l'intermédiaire de vis 12 qui pénètrent dans des trous 13 correspondants formés à la face supérieure de l'étage mitigeur 10. A la suite de 1 ' électrovanne s'étend un tuyau 14 pour le passage de l'eau vers un embout 20 d'extrémité formant sortie d'eau. Above the mixing device is a solenoid valve 11 attached to the mixing device by means of screws 12 which penetrate into corresponding holes 13 formed on the upper face of the mixer stage 10. As a result of the solenoid valve extends a pipe 14 for the passage of water to a tip end 20 forming water outlet.
L'ensemble 1 dit technique qui comporte ainsi un point d'entrée d'eau au niveau des deux embouts 8 et 9 d'alimentation en eau et un point de sortie d'eau au niveau de l'embout 20 forme avec la coque 2 qui le coiffe un dispositif robinet suivant l'invention. La coque 2 comporte une ouverture 5 inférieure dont le bord . 4 intérieur est destiné à coopérer avec l'embase 3 pour assurer la fixation amovible mutuelle de la coque et de l'embase. La coque 2 comporte d'autre part une ouverture 21 dont le bord intérieur 22 est destiné à coopérer avec l'embout 20 pour une fixation amovible mutuelle de l'embout et de la coque. Un capot 23 vient fermer l'espace intérieur de la coque par le dessus. The assembly 1 said technique which thus comprises a point of entry of water at the two ends 8 and 9 of water supply and a water outlet point at the end 20 forms with the shell 2 which caps a valve device according to the invention. The shell 2 has a lower opening 5 whose edge . 4 interior is intended to cooperate with the base 3 to ensure mutual removable attachment of the shell and the base. The shell 2 further comprises an opening 21 whose inner edge 22 is intended to cooperate with the nozzle 20 for mutual removable attachment of the tip and the shell. A hood 23 closes the interior space of the hull from above.
L'embase 3 est en forme sensiblement de disque circulaire ayant une face supérieure 24, une face inférieure 25 et une face latérale 26. Trois ergots 27 de forme rectangulaire font saillie de la paroi 26 en étant sensiblement uniformément répartis angulairement sur la surface 26 latérale. Chaque ergot 27 de forme rectangulaire est à distance de la face 25 inférieure. Ces ergots 27 rectangulaires sont destinés à coopérer avec des rainures 28 correspondantes formées dans la paroi intérieure du bord 4 de l'ouverture 5 inférieure de la coque 2 pour assurer une fixation mutuelle amovible de l'embase à la coque. The base 3 is substantially circular disk-shaped having an upper face 24, a lower face 25 and a lateral face 26. Three spigots 27 of rectangular shape project from the wall 26 by being substantially uniformly angularly distributed on the lateral surface 26 . Each lug 27 of rectangular shape is at a distance from the lower face. These lugs 27 are rectangular intended to cooperate with grooves 28 corresponding formed in the inner wall of the edge 4 of the opening 5 lower the shell 2 to ensure a removable mutual attachment of the base to the hull.
Ces rainures 28 peuvent notamment être vues en détail aux Figures 11 à 14. Elle comporte chacune un premier tronçon de même largeur que la largeur de l'ergot 27 rectangulaire qui s'étend sur une hauteur correspondant à la distance à laquelle l'ergot 27 se trouve de la face inférieure 25 de l'embase 3. La rainure 28 comporte à la suite de ce premier tronçon un tronçon de plus grande largeur que le premier tronçon et qui s'étend sur une hauteur sensiblement égale à la longueur de l'ergot 27. Ce deuxième tronçon de la rainure 28 ayant une plus grande largeur forme avec le premier tronçon un épaulement 29. Ainsi, lorsque les ergots 27 coopèrent avec les rainures 28, ils vont pénétrer par le premier tronçon, puis après avoir atteint le deuxième tronçon, on fait légèrement pivoter la coque pour faire en sorte que l'ergot 27, entièrement reçu dans le deuxième tronçon, vienne en butée contre 1 ' épaulement 29 pour ainsi fixer de manière amovible l'embase 3 à la coque 2 avec empêchement de tout mouvement dans le sens vertical. L'embase 3 comporte en outre deux protubérances 30 de forme rectangulaire qui s'étendent sur toute la hauteur de la face 26 latérale de l'embase 3. Ces protubérances rectangulaires 30 sont associées à des rainures 31 complémentaires formées dans la paroi intérieure du bord 4 de l'ouverture 5. Ces rainures 31, de forme complémentaire des protubérances rectangulaires 24, sont chacune percées de trous 32 traversants respectifs. These grooves 28 can in particular be seen in detail in FIGS. 11 to 14. It each comprises a first section of the same width as the width of the rectangular pin 27 which extends over a height corresponding to the distance at which the pin 27 is located on the underside 25 of the base 3. The groove 28 comprises, following this first section, a section of greater width than the first section and which extends over a height substantially equal to the length of the This second portion of the groove 28 having a greater width forms with the first section a shoulder 29. Thus, when the lugs 27 cooperate with the grooves 28, they will penetrate through the first section, then after reaching the second section, the hull is pivoted slightly to ensure that the lug 27, fully received in the second section, abuts against the shoulder 29 and thus removably secure the base 3 the shell 2 with prevention of any movement in the vertical direction. The base 3 further comprises two protuberances 30 of rectangular shape which extend over the entire height of the lateral face 26 of the base 3. These rectangular protuberances 30 are associated with complementary grooves 31 formed in the inner wall of the edge. 4 of the opening 5. These grooves 31, of complementary shape of the rectangular protuberances 24, are each pierced with respective through holes 32.
De même, les protubérances 30 sont percées de trous oblongs 33, en correspondance avec les trous 32 lorsque les protubérances 30 se trouvent dans les rainures 31. On peut alors assurer un vissage de l'embase 3 à la coque 2 par l'intermédiaire d'une vis (non représentée) et notamment par l'intermédiaire de vis à tête conique, montées de telle manière que, de l'extérieur, plus on tente de dévisser cette vis pour la faire sortir du trou 32, plus on presse la tête conique contre le bord du trou 32 et plus on bloque la fixation mutuelle de l'embase à la coque, ce qui permet de lutter contre des personnes mal intentionnées tentant de démonter le robinet de la vasque . Likewise, the protuberances 30 are pierced with oblong holes 33, corresponding to the holes 32 when the protuberances 30 are in the grooves 31. can then ensure a screwing of the base 3 to the shell 2 by means of a screw (not shown) and in particular by means of screws with conical head, mounted in such a way that, from the outside, more we try to unscrew this screw to make it out of the hole 32, the more we press the conical head against the edge of the hole 32 and the more we block the mutual attachment of the base to the hull, which makes it possible to fight against people badly intentional attempting to disassemble the tap of the basin.
La fixation de l'embase 3 à la vasque peut se faire, comme représenté à la figure 3, par l'intermédiaire de vis 80, 81 et de trous 82, 83 associés débouchant à la face inférieure de l'embase. Fixing the base 3 to the basin can be done, as shown in Figure 3, by means of screws 80, 81 and holes 82, 83 associated opening to the lower face of the base.
L'embout 20 formant point de sortie d'eau qui est disposé à l'extrémité de sortie du tuyau 14 est reçu dans une sorte de logement formé par le bord 22 intérieur de l'ouverture 21 de sortie d'eau de la coque 2. L'embout 20 comporte une partie formant socle de base de forme sensiblement cylindrique circulaire de la paroi latérale duquel font saillie deux ergots 40 diamétralement opposés qui pénètrent dans des rainures respectives 41 formées dans la paroi intérieure du bord 22. Ces rainures 41 sont du même type que les rainures 28 et comportent chacune un premier tronçon ayant une largeur sensiblement identique à la largeur des ergots 40 et un deuxième tronçon de plus grande largeur qui forme avec le premier tronçon un épaulement. Ainsi, lorsque l'on insère l'embout 20 par son socle dans le logement de réception, on place les deux ergots 40 en correspondance avec les premiers tronçons, puis on pousse l'ensemble vers la sortie 21 pour faire en sorte que les ergots atteignent le niveau du deuxième tronçon, moment à partir duquel on fait subir au socle une légère rotation pour faire en sorte que 1 ' épaulement formé entre les deux tronçons de largeurs différentes bloque alors l'ensemble pour empêcher tout mouvement dans le sens vertical. En outre, à la surface supérieure de l'embout 20 fait saillie vers le haut une plaque 50 rectangulaire qui lorsque l'embout est bloqué en position verticale par la coopération ergots 40 rainures 41 se trouve à distance d'une paroi frontale 51 intérieure de la coque 2. Il est ainsi formé entre la paroi frontale 51 à l'intérieur de la coque 2 et cette plaque 50 un interstice. Or, dans le capot 23 fait saillie vers le bas une plaque 60 de forme complémentaire de cet interstice, de sorte que lorsqu'on ferme la coque 2 par le capot 23, cette plaque 60 issue du capot 23 pénètre dans l'interstice entre la plaque 50 et la paroi frontale 51 de la coque pour ainsi empêcher toute rotation mutuelle entre l'embout 20 et la coque 2 fixant ainsi dans une position fixe aussi bien en translation qu'en rotation l'embout 20. The tip 20 forming water outlet point which is disposed at the outlet end of the pipe 14 is received in a kind of housing formed by the inner edge 22 of the opening 21 of water outlet of the shell 2 The endpiece 20 comprises a substantially cylindrical base-shaped base portion of the lateral wall from which two diametrically opposed lugs 40 protrude which penetrate into respective grooves 41 formed in the inner wall of the edge 22. These grooves 41 are same type as the grooves 28 and each comprise a first section having a width substantially identical to the width of the lugs 40 and a second section of greater width which forms with the first section a shoulder. Thus, when inserting the endpiece 20 by its base in the receiving housing, the two lugs 40 are placed in correspondence with the first sections, then the assembly is pushed towards the outlet 21 to ensure that the lugs reach the level the second section, moment from which the base is subjected to a slight rotation to ensure that the shoulder formed between the two sections of different widths then blocks the assembly to prevent movement in the vertical direction. In addition, on the upper surface of the endpiece 20 projects upwardly a rectangular plate 50 which when the endpiece is locked in the vertical position by the interlocking lugs 40 grooves 41 is at a distance from an inner front wall 51 of the shell 2. It is thus formed between the front wall 51 inside the shell 2 and the plate 50 a gap. However, in the cover 23 projects downwardly a plate 60 of complementary shape to this gap, so that when closing the shell 2 by the cover 23, this plate 60 from the cover 23 enters the gap between the plate 50 and the front wall 51 of the shell so as to prevent any mutual rotation between the end piece 20 and the shell 2 thus fixing in a fixed position both in translation and in rotation the endpiece 20.
Comme on le voit à la figure 3, la fixation du capot 23 à la coque se fait par l'intermédiaire d'une vis 90 et de deux trous 91 et 92 formés dans des protubérances issues respectivement de la face intérieure du capot et de la face inférieure intérieure de la coque, le trou 92 formé dans la coque étant traversant. As seen in Figure 3, the attachment of the cover 23 to the shell is via a screw 90 and two holes 91 and 92 formed in protuberances respectively from the inner face of the cover and the inner lower face of the hull, the hole 92 formed in the hull being through.
A l'extrémité du côté de l'ouverture 21, on peut rajouter à l'embout 20 une rondelle d'aération d'eau sous forme d'un embout 70 mousseur classique dans le domaine. At the end of the side of the opening 21, can be added to the tip 20 a water aeration washer in the form of a nozzle 70 aerator conventional in the field.
