Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de déclenchement d'une chasse d'eau murale comprenant un cadre de fixation à un mur et au moins un bouton poussoir vertical articulé sur le cadre, de déplacement d'une tige longitudinale d'actionnement d'un système de remplissage/vidange de la chasse d'eau. Un tel dispositif de déclenchement d'une chasse d'eau murale est connu du document DE 297 22 148 U1 . Ce dispositif comporte dans le cadre de fixation un élément d'obturation de l'évidement comportant un orifice de passage de la tige pour autoriser l'actionnement de la chasse.The present invention relates to a device for triggering a wall flush comprising a frame for fixing to a wall and at least one vertical push button articulated on the frame, for moving a longitudinal rod for actuating a system filling / emptying flush. Such a device for triggering a wall flush is known from the document DE 297 22 148 U1 . This device comprises in the fastening frame a closure member of the recess comprising a passage opening of the rod to allow actuation of the flush.

Les documents EP 1 300 520 A2 et DE 44 26 250 A1 divulguent d'autres dispositifs avec les caractéristiques énumérées ci-dessus.The documents EP 1 300 520 A2 and DE 44 26 250 A1 disclose other devices with the features listed above.

La présente invention trouve une application particulièrement importante bien que non exclusive dans le domaine de la construction et de l'isolation d'appartements d'habitation collective et individuelle.The present invention finds a particularly important, although not exclusive, application in the field of the construction and insulation of collective and individual residential flats.

Pour répondre à des considérations économique et écologique, et en raison d'une réglementation de plus en plus contraignante, les constructions nouvelles et anciennes se voient imposer le respect d'une bonne étanchéité à l'air par rapport à l'extérieur, le taux de fuite admissible devant être en dessous d'un seuil de fuite d'air déterminé.To meet economic and ecological considerations, and because of increasingly stringent regulations, new and old buildings are required to respect a good airtightness with respect to the outside, the rate permissible leakage rate to be below a specified air leakage threshold.

Que ce soit pour l'obtention d'un label (par exemple les labels français dénommés bâtiment basse consommation (BBC) EFFINERGIE+, haute performance énergétique (HPE) ou très haute performance énergétique (THPE)), ou pour le respect d'obligations règlementaires (telles que celles imposées par exemple par la règlementation thermique dite RT2012), de telles mesures de fuite d'air sont alors avantageusement réalisées selon la norme NF EN 13829.Whether for obtaining a label (for example the French labels called building low consumption (BBC) EFFINERGIE +, high energy performance (HPE) or very high energy performance (THPE)), or for compliance with regulatory obligations (Such as those imposed for example by the thermal regulation known as RT2012), such air leakage measurements are then advantageously carried out according to standard NF EN 13829.

Par exemple l'admissibilité au label BBC EFFINERGIE nécessite d'obtenir avec de telles mesures une valeur de fuite d'air inférieure à une valeur de référence de 1.2 M3.h-1.m-2, souvent difficilement atteinte.For example, eligibility for the BBC label EFFINERGIE requires to obtain with such measurements an air leakage value lower than a value of reference 1.2 M 3 .h -1 .m -2 , often not easily achieved.

Il existe donc un besoin non pleinement satisfait à ce jour, de réduire les fuites d'air et/ou de maintenir la température des pièces d'habitation en construction ou en reconstruction en dessous de seuils déterminés.There is therefore a need not fully satisfied to date, reduce air leakage and / or maintain the temperature of living rooms under construction or reconstruction below certain thresholds.

On connaît déjà des dispositifs permettant d'étanchéifier une ouverture comme une fenêtre ou une porte.Devices are already known for sealing an opening such as a window or a door.

Il s'agit en général de joints adaptés sur le pourtour de l'orifice à protéger qui permettent de réduire les fuites d'air d'un local par rapport à l'extérieur.These are generally seals adapted around the perimeter of the port to be protected that reduce air leakage from a room relative to the outside.

Mais personne n'avait cependant réellement identifié les fuites importantes générées dans des salles de bain et/ou toilettes d'un logement d'habitation qui se produisent au niveau des dispositifs de déclenchement d'une chasse d'eau murale.However, no one had actually identified the large leaks that were generated in bathrooms and / or restrooms of a dwelling unit that occur at the devices that trigger a wall flush.

Les fuites occasionnées par de tels dispositifs ne trouvent par ailleurs pas de solution classique du type joints, qui sont en particulier souvent mal adaptés à des pièces à taux d'humidité dans l'air élevé.The leakage caused by such devices also find no conventional solution type joints, which are particularly often poorly suited to high moisture content parts in the air.

La présente invention vise à pallier ces inconvénients et pour ce faire à fournir un dispositif répondant mieux que ceux antérieurement connus aux exigences de la pratique, notamment en ce qu'elle va permettre de limiter les pertes et fuites d'air et de température dans une pièce pouvant présenter un taux d'humidité élevé et comprenant une chasse d'eau murale.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks and to do this to provide a device that better than those previously known to the requirements of practice, particularly in that it will allow to limit the losses and leaks of air and temperature in a room that can have a high humidity and includes a wall flush.

Dans ce but, l'invention propose notamment un dispositif de déclenchement d'une chasse d'eau murale comprenant un cadre de fixation à un mur, au moins un bouton poussoir vertical articulé sur le cadre, de déplacement d'une tige longitudinale d'actionnement d'un système de remplissage/vidange de la chasse d'eau et ladite tige, caractérisé en ce que le cadre définissant un évidement dans lequel se déplace le bouton poussoir, l'évidement comporte un bord périphérique sur lequel est fixé hermétiquement un film d'obturation de l'évidement étanche à l'air et perméable à l'humidité, et en ce que le film comporte un orifice de passage de ladite tige pour autoriser l'actionnement de la chasse.For this purpose, the invention notably proposes a device for triggering a wall flush comprising a frame for fixing to a wall, at least one vertical push button articulated on the frame, for moving a longitudinal rod of actuation of a system for filling / emptying the flush and said rod, characterized in that the frame defining a recess in which the push button moves, the recess comprises a peripheral edge on which is fixed hermetically a film sealing of the recess airtight and permeable to moisture, and in that the film has a passage opening of said rod to allow the actuation of the flush.

Par chasse d'eau murale on entend ici, tout système de chasse d'eau pour toilette dont une partie au moins est confinée dans un mur et/ou se trouve de l'autre côté d'une paroi du lieu d'installation dudit toilette et notamment de son dispositif de déclenchement, ledit système formant ainsi une interface entre l'intérieur du mur constituant son logement et l'intérieur d'une pièce d'habitation.Wall flushing means any toilet flushing system, at least a portion of which is confined to a wall and / or is on the other side of a wall of the installation site of said toilet. and in particular its trigger device, said system thus forming an interface between the interior of the wall constituting its housing and the interior of a living room.

The invention will be better understood on reading the following description of embodiments given as non-limiting examples. The description refers to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • The figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a bathroom comprising a device according to one embodiment of the invention.
  • The figure 2 is a diagrammatic perspective exploded view of a device according to an embodiment of the invention of the type of that of the figure 1 .

La figure 1 montre une salle d'eau 1, c'est-à-dire une pièce d'un logement d'habitation présentant des arrivées et/ou sorties d'eau.The figure 1 shows a bathroom 1, that is to say, a room of a dwelling housing with arrivals and / or outlets of water.

La salle d'eau comprend un mur vertical 2 muni d'un siège de toilette 3 dont une face arrière est par exemple scellée dans le mur. Un dispositif 4 selon le mode de réalisation de l'invention plus particulièrement décrit ici, de déclenchement d'une chasse d'eau 5, comportant deux boutons poussoirs 6, 6', est prévu à l'aplomb du siègeThe bathroom includes a vertical wall 2 with a toilet seat 3, a rear face is for example sealed in the wall. A device 4 according to the embodiment of the invention more particularly described here, triggering a flush 5, comprising two push buttons 6, 6 ', is provided at the head of the seat

Le siège de toilette 3 est connecté à deux tuyaux 7, 7' qui traversent le mur 2, à savoir un tuyau 7 d'arrivée d'eau et un tuyau 7' d'évacuation de l'eau et des déchets par exemple via un siphon (non représenté).The toilet seat 3 is connected to two pipes 7, 7 'which pass through the wall 2, namely a water inlet pipe 7 and a pipe 7' for discharging water and waste for example via a siphon (not shown).

De l'autre côté du mur 2 par rapport au siège de toilette 3, l'arrivée d'eau 7 est reliée à un réservoir 8 de chasse d'eau, comprenant une entrée 9 de remplissage.On the other side of the wall 2 with respect to the toilet seat 3, the water inlet 7 is connected to a flush tank 8, comprising a filling inlet 9.

Le réservoir 8 de chasse d'eau est muni d'un système 10 de remplissage/vidange connu en lui-même et commandé par le dispositif 4 de déclenchement.The flush tank 8 is provided with a filling / emptying system 10 known per se and controlled by the trigger device 4.

Par la suite on utilisera s'il y a lieu les mêmes numéros de référence pour désigner des éléments identiques ou similaires.Thereafter the same reference numbers will be used if appropriate to designate identical or similar elements.

En référence à la figure 2, le système 10 de remplissage/vidange de la chasse comprend une cloche 11 de chasse d'eau commandant l'entrée de l'eau dans le réservoir par l'intermédiaire d'un flotteur (non représenté), surmontée dans le plan vertical par une anse 12 comprenant une ouverture par laquelle passe une première extrémité 13 d'un crochet 14 qui collabore avec celle-ci. La traction dans le sens vertical (flèche F) du crochet, et donc de l'anse, soulève la cloche ce qui amorce la vidange de façon connue.With reference to the figure 2 , the system 10 for filling / emptying the flush comprises a flushing bell 11 controlling the entry of water into the tank via a float (not shown), surmounted in the vertical plane by a loop 12 comprising an opening through which passes a first end 13 of a hook 14 which collaborates therewith. The traction in the vertical direction (arrow F) of the hook, and therefore the handle, raises the bell which initiates the drain in a known manner.

La seconde extrémité 15 du crochet coopère avec la périphérie d'une came 16 libre en rotation autour d'un axe 17, de sorte qu'une pression horizontale dans un sens sur la base de la came 16 crée un mouvement vertical ascendant pour le crochet 14.The second end 15 of the hook cooperates with the periphery of a free cam 16 rotated about an axis 17, so that a horizontal pressure in one direction on the base of the cam 16 creates an upward vertical movement for the hook 14.

Un mouvement dans le sens opposé de la base de la came 16 dans le sens horizontal (flèche G), par exemple due à une position de stabilité de la came 16, génère par contre un mouvement descendant du crochet 14 (flèche F) et donc arrête la vidange de la chasse.A movement in the opposite direction of the base of the cam 16 in the horizontal direction (arrow G), for example due to a position of stability of the cam 16, generates on the other hand a downward movement of the hook 14 (arrow F) and therefore stop the flushing of the hunt.

La pression sur la base de la came 16 est exercée au moyen d'une tige 17 longitudinale d'actionnement du système 10 de remplissage/vidange de la chasse d'eau.The pressure on the base of the cam 16 is exerted by means of a longitudinal rod 17 for actuating the system 10 for filling / emptying the flush.

Le dispositif 4 de déclenchement permet le déplacement de la tige 17 par mise en mouvement (par la poussée) de la face 18 d'une de ses extrémités, à l'aide du bouton poussoir 6, 6' par exemple formé par un rectangle en matière plastique sensiblement situé ou situé dans le plan vertical et articulé sur le cadre 19 appartenant au dispositif.The triggering device 4 allows the rod 17 to be moved by moving (pushing) the face 18 of one of its ends with the aid of the push button 6, 6 ', for example formed by a plastic rectangle substantially located or located in the vertical plane and articulated on the frame 19 belonging to the device.

Le bouton comporte sur sa face interne, une surface de contact libre, agencé pour coopérer avec l'extrémité 18 sur laquelle elle s'appuie.The button has on its inner face, a free contact surface, arranged to cooperate with the end 18 on which it is based.

Plus précisément le cadre 19 est un cadre de fixation au mur, rectangulaire comprenant un rebord 20 périphérique présentant une surface d'appui et de maintien du dispositif contre le mur et/ou dans un logement mural 21 par exemple d'une largeur E comprise entre 0, 5 cm et 3 cm et d'une épaisseur e compris entre 0, 5 cm et 2 cm.More precisely, the frame 19 is a rectangular wall-mounting frame comprising a peripheral rim 20 having a surface for supporting and holding the device against the wall and / or in a wall housing 21, for example with a width E between 0, 5 cm and 3 cm and a thickness e between 0.5 cm and 2 cm.

Le rebord 20 définit de manière sensiblement centré par rapport au cadre un évidement 22 et constitue ainsi le bord périphérique de ce dernier.The flange 20 defines substantially centrally relative to the frame a recess 22 and thus constitutes the peripheral edge of the latter.

L'évidement 22 forme à l'intérieur du cadre 19 un espace rectangulaire de parois 23 dans lequel se déplacent les boutons poussoirs 6, 6' et comporte un fond ajouré 24.The recess 22 forms inside the frame 19 a rectangular wall space 23 in which the push buttons 6, 6 'move and has a perforated bottom 24.

Sur les parois 23 et/ou sur une barre centrale 25 en vis-à-vis, se trouvent de façon connue des ergots 26 cylindriques permettant le montage libre en rotation de joues 27 ajourées du capot 28 des boutons poussoirs 6, 6'.On the walls 23 and / or on a central bar 25 vis-à-vis, there are in known manner 26 cylindrical pins for mounting free rotation of flanged cheeks 27 of the cover 28 of the push buttons 6, 6 '.

Positionnés de manière sensiblement médiane entre les ergots 26, 26' sont montés des moyens 30 à effet ressort, par exemple formés par des lames fixées sur le fond 24 et adaptées pour collaborer avec la face interne 31 du capot 28 d'un bouton poussoir correspondant.Positioned substantially centrally between the lugs 26, 26 'are mounted means 30 spring effect, for example formed by blades fixed on the bottom 24 and adapted to cooperate with the inner face 31 of the cover 28 of a corresponding push button .

Le fond ajouré 21 comprend deux ouvertures 32, à cheval sur le fond 24 et le bord périphérique interne 20, permettant de façon connue en elle-même la rétention et le mouvement des extrémités à cliquet .33 des boutons poussoirs.The perforated bottom 21 comprises two openings 32, straddling the bottom 24 and the inner peripheral edge 20, allowing in a known manner in itself the retention and movement of ratchet ends .33 push buttons.

Il comprend également des ajours 34 de suppression de matière qui limitent le poids et le coût en matière de fabrication de la pièce (mais réduisent la résistance et l'herméticité du fond 24).It also includes material removal openings 34 which limit the weight and cost of manufacturing the workpiece (but reduce the strength and hermeticity of the bottom 24).

Selon le mode de réalisation décrit ici, le fond 24 comprend deux ouvertures 35, 35' de passage et guidage des tiges 17, la tête 18 de celles-ci faisant saillie du fond 24 et venant en butée sur une portion 36 de surface par exemple légèrement sphérique, de la face interne du capot 28 du bouton poussoir 6, 6'.According to the embodiment described here, the bottom 24 comprises two openings 35, 35 'for passing and guiding the rods 17, the head 18 of which project from the bottom 24 and abutting on a portion 36 of surface for example slightly spherical, the inner face of the cover 28 of the push button 6, 6 '.

Plus précisément la portion ou logement 36 est de forme adaptée à la tête de la tige 17 et est agencée pour exercer une pression sensiblement axiale sur la tête lors du mouvement circulaire du capot 28.More precisely, the portion or housing 36 is of a shape adapted to the head of the rod 17 and is arranged to exert a substantially axial pressure on the head during the circular movement of the cap 28.

La tige 17 est ainsi guidée en translation par l'ouverture de guidage 35 et le logement 36 du capot 28 du bouton 6.The rod 17 is thus guided in translation by the guide opening 35 and the housing 36 of the cap 28 of the knob 6.

De l'autre côté du fond 24 par rapport au bouton poussoir 6 se trouve fixé sur la périphérie externe du bord périphérique interne 20, un film 38 d'obturation étanche de l'évidement 22.On the other side of the bottom 24 relative to the push button 6 is fixed on the outer periphery of the inner peripheral edge 20, a film 38 sealing the recess 22.

Le film 38 est formé d'une toile sensiblement rectangulaire de dimension un peu supérieure à celle de la surface du cadre 19. Il est positionné en regard de celui-ci, ses bords étant autocollants où ayant par exemple été enduits au préalable de colle, par exemple une colle bicomposite connue en elle-même, permettant un excellent collage du film sur le cadre 19 en matière plastique.The film 38 is formed of a substantially rectangular web of a size slightly greater than that of the surface of the frame 19. It is positioned opposite it, its edges being self-adhesive or having for example been pre-coated with glue, for example a bicomposite adhesive known in itself, allowing excellent bonding of the film on the frame 19 of plastic.

Plus précisément les bords du film 38 sont rabattus sur l'épaisseur de la périphérie externe sur laquelle ils ont appliqués pour collage, le film étant alors globalement tendu. Il obstrue ainsi toutes les ouvertures, trou, ajours,... du fond 24 du cadre 19.More specifically, the edges of the film 38 are folded over the thickness of the outer periphery on which they applied for gluing, the film then being generally stretched. It thus obstructs all the openings, holes, openings, ... of the bottom 24 of the frame 19.

Il en résulte un film hermétiquement fixé sur le cadre, de manière étanche à l'air dans au moins un sens.This results in a film hermetically fixed to the frame, airtight in at least one direction.

Avantageusement le sens unique de circulation de l'air est celui du bouton poussoir 6, 6' vers le fond 24. Mais le film peut également être étanche dans les deux sens.Advantageously, the one direction of air circulation is that of the push button 6, 6 'towards the bottom 24. But the film can also be sealed in both directions.

Le film 38 peut être en matière plastique mais sera avantageusement en matière synthétique microporeuse ayant une bonne résistance à la déchirure (résistance à la déchirure au clou supérieur à 20 N).The film 38 may be of plastic material but will advantageously be made of microporous synthetic material having a good tear resistance (nail tear resistance greater than 20 N).

Par exemple, on utilisera un film commercialisé par la société ISOVER SAINT GOBAIN sous la dénomination membrane Vario-Duplex et la référence ISOVER 73310.For example, a film sold by the company ISOVER SAINT GOBAIN under the name Vario-Duplex membrane and the reference ISOVER 73310 will be used.

Dans ce mode de réalisation il s'agit d'une membrane qui a une résistance à la diffusion en vapeur d'eau (ci-après noté Sd) variable.In this embodiment it is a membrane which has a resistance to the diffusion of water vapor (hereinafter Sd) variable.

Par exemple le film 38 possède en hiver un Sd proche de 5 m c'est-à-dire empêchant la vapeur d'eau de passer de l'intérieur vers l'extérieur et en été un Sd proche de 0.2 m autorisant la circulation de l'humidité de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur.For example, the film 38 has in winter a Sd close to 5 m that is to say preventing the water vapor to pass from the inside to the outside and in summer a Sd close to 0.2 m allowing the circulation of moisture from the outside to the inside.

Un tel film 38 a en outre une perméabilité à la vapeur d'eau comprise entre 0.02 g/m2.h.mm Hg et 0.36 g/m2.h.mm Hg, une résistance à la déchirure au clou supérieur à 60 N, et une résistance à la traction supérieur à 150 N.Such a film 38 also has a water vapor permeability of between 0.02 g / m 2 · h · mm Hg and 0.36 g / m 2 · h · mm Hg, a nail tear resistance. greater than 60 N, and a tensile strength greater than 150 N.

Selon le mode de réalisation de l'invention plus particulièrement décrit ici, le film 38 est traversé par la tige 17 (transmettant le mouvement du bouton poussoir 6, à la came 16) via un orifice 39 formé dans le film 38 de façon sensiblement étanche à l'air.According to the embodiment of the invention more particularly described here, the film 38 is traversed by the rod 17 (transmitting the movement of the push button 6 to the cam 16) via an orifice 39 formed in the film 38 in a substantially sealed manner in the air.

L'orifice 39 est constitué par une croix formée (cf. figure 2') par deux incisions perpendiculaires sensiblement orthogonales et de même dimensions 40, 40' dans le film 38, par exemple à la pointe de couteau.The orifice 39 is constituted by a cross formed (cf. figure 2 ' ) by two perpendicular incisions substantially orthogonal and of the same dimensions 40, 40 'in the film 38, for example at the knife tip.

Le cercle circonscrit à la croix est de dimension inférieure ou égale à la surface de la section de la tige 17 à cet endroit.The circle circumscribes the cross is of dimension less than or equal to the surface of the section of the rod 17 at this location.

A titre d'exemple la section de la tige 17 est comprise entre 4 mm2 et 10 mm2 et les branches 40, 40' de l'orifice sont d'une longueur comprise entre 2 mm et 3 mm.For example, the section of the rod 17 is between 4 mm 2 and 10 mm 2 and the branches 40, 40 'of the orifice are of a length of between 2 mm and 3 mm.

Lors de l'actionnement de la tige 17, celle-ci collabore donc à frottement doux, assurant une bonne étanchéité relative avec le film 38.During the actuation of the rod 17, it thus collaborates with gentle friction, ensuring a good relative sealing with the film 38.

Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 6, la tige comporte en outre des ailettes 41 ou nervures 41' radiales, orthogonales par rapport à la tige 17,
l'extrémité des nervures 41' coopère du coup à frottement avec l'orifice 39.
In the embodiment of the figure 6 , the rod further comprises fins 41 or radial ribs 41 ', orthogonal to the rod 17,
the end of the ribs 41 'frictionally engages with the hole 39.

La résistance à la déchirure du film 38 assure quant à elle la pérennité de l'installation et l'intégrité de celui-ci.The tear resistance of the film 38 ensures the durability of the installation and the integrity of the latter.

Les nervures 41' sont d'une hauteur comprise entre 0, 2 mm et 0, 5 mm et sont espacées d'une distance comprise entre 0, 5 mm et 1 mm.The ribs 41 'are from a height of between 0.2 mm and 0.5 mm and are spaced apart by a distance of between 0.5 mm and 1 mm.

Plus précisément la tige 17 est de forme générale tubulaire avec une extrémité 42 tronconique et l'autre extrémité 43, de coopération avec le bouton poussoir, parallélépipédique.More precisely, the rod 17 is of tubular general shape with a frustoconical end 42 and the other end 43, of cooperation with the push button, parallelepipedal.

La tige 17 comporte en outre des tronçons 44 de diamètre de section plus faible formant des zones de fragilisation. Ces zones espacées d'une longueur déterminée permettent de scinder ladite tige 17 en plusieurs tronçons autorisant ainsi des montages à des distances différentes entre mur de fixation et chasse d'eau.The rod 17 further comprises sections 44 of smaller diameter section forming weakening zones. These spaced apart zones of a given length make it possible to split said rod 17 into several sections thus allowing assemblies at different distances between fixing wall and flushing.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation (cf. figure 3), un seul bouton 6 est représenté, qui n'est pas directement monté dans l'évidement 22 mais est relié à une façade démontable 45 englobante de la surface du cadre 46 sur laquelle il est monté. Le bouton poussoir 6 est ici directement relié et articulé sur la façade 45, façade 45 et cadre 46 étant assemblés puis fixés sur un socle 47 de montage, formés d'un châssis 48 rectangulaire à bordure 49 épaisse.In another embodiment (cf. figure 3 ), a single button 6 is shown, which is not directly mounted in the recess 22 but is connected to a removable facade 45 encompassing the surface of the frame 46 on which it is mounted. The push button 6 is here directly connected and articulated on the front 45, front 45 and frame 46 being assembled and then fixed on a mounting base 47, formed of a rectangular frame 48 with a thick border 49.

La bordure 49 possède des trous 50 pour la fixation, par exemple par vis dans le mur 2.The border 49 has holes 50 for fixing, for example by screws in the wall 2.

Le film 38 étanche est fixé sur le bord périphérique externe de la face du châssis 48 rectangulaire, ladite face étant celle en regard et en contact du mur de fixation.The waterproof film 38 is fixed on the outer peripheral edge of the face of the rectangular frame 48, said face being that opposite and in contact with the fixing wall.

L'invention est ainsi adaptée pour fonctionner avec toute chasse d'eau dont l'actionnement est opéré mécaniquement au moyen d'une tige.The invention is thus adapted to operate with any flush whose actuation is operated mechanically by means of a rod.

Le fonctionnement du dispositif va maintenant être décrit plus particulièrement en référence aux figures 2 et 4.The operation of the device will now be described more particularly with reference to figures 2 and 4 .

Lorsqu'un utilisateur souhaite nettoyer la cuvette des toilettes, il exerce une pression sur au moins un des boutons 6, 6' poussoirs de déclenchement de la vidange de la chasse.When a user wishes to clean the toilet bowl, he exerts pressure on at least one of the buttons 6, 6 'flush trigger release buttons.

Les moyens à effet ressort 30 ayant tendance à ramener le bouton poussoir 6, 6' dans sa position initiale, l'utilisateur exerce une pression continue, ou non, selon que la chasse est à déclenchement continue ou par impulsion sur le bouton.The spring means 30 tending to return the push button 6, 6 'to its initial position, the user exerts a continuous pressure, or not, depending on whether the flush is continuous trigger or pulse button.

Lors de la pression par l'utilisateur sur le bouton 6, la face interne 31 de ce dernier appuie sur la tige 17, le logement 36 coopérant avec la face de l'extrémité 43 proximale de ladite tige. L'ouverture de guidage 35 dans le fond 24 de l'évidement 22 correspondant à la tige 17, guide alors celle-ci dans un mouvement sensiblement axial au travers du film.When the user presses the button 6, the inner face 31 of the latter presses on the rod 17, the housing 36 cooperating with the face of the proximal end 43 of said rod. The guide opening 35 in the bottom 24 of the recess 22 corresponding to the rod 17, then guides it in a substantially axial movement through the film.

Lors de cette avancée, les ailettes 41 ou nervures radiales 41' de la tige 17 coopèrent avec l'ouverture du film 38, permettant d'actionner la chasse d'eau de façon sensiblement étanche également grâce au reste du dispositif.During this advance, the fins 41 or radial ribs 41 'of the rod 17 cooperate with the opening of the film 38, to actuate the flush substantially watertight manner also thanks to the rest of the device.

La faible dimension des incisions 40, 40' formant l'orifice 38 crée par ailleurs un effet ressort qui au passage des nervures radiales 41 sur le film 38 à tendance à ramener les pans de film 38 dans leur position initiale, c'est-à-dire augmente le frottement des pans de film 38 sur la tige 17 et donc favorise encore l'étanchéité.The small size of the incisions 40, 40 'forming the orifice 38 also creates a spring effect which, when the radial ribs 41 pass over the film 38 tends to bring the film strips 38 back to their initial position, ie ie, increases the friction of the film strips 38 on the rod 17 and thus further promotes sealing.

De façon étonnante, il a en effet été observé que l'étanchéité de fuite à l'air avec un dispositif selon l'invention, a été amélioré considérablement : Par exemple, pour un appartement sur deux étages d'une surface totale de près de 66m2 comprenant trois pièces d'habitation et une salle de bain d'une surface de l'ordre de 5m2,

  • le taux τ de fuite d'air de l'appartement avant installation d'un dispositif selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention est de 0.631 M3.h-1.m-2 (mesuré selon la norme NF EN 13829), pour
  • un taux τ de fuite d'air de l'appartement après installation d'un dispositif selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention de 0.376 M3.h-1.m-2.
Surprisingly, it has indeed been observed that air leak tightness with a device according to the invention, has been improved considerably: For example, for a two-storey apartment with a total surface area of nearly 66m 2 comprising three living rooms and a bathroom with a surface area of around 5m 2 ,
  • the rate τ of air leakage of the apartment before installation of a device according to one embodiment of the invention is 0.631 M 3 .h -1 .m -2 (measured according to standard NF EN 13829), for
  • a rate τ of air leakage from the apartment after installation of a device according to an embodiment of the invention of 0.376 M 3 .h -1 .m -2 .

Comme il va de soi et comme il résulte également de ce qui précède, la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation plus particulièrement décrits. Elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes et notamment celles où il y a plus de deux boutons poussoirs, où le capot du bouton poussoir ne met pas directement en mouvement la tige mais le fait par l'intermédiaire de moyens électromécaniques et/ou pneumatiques, celle où l'ouverture de passage de la tige dans le film est de forme différente.As is obvious and as also follows from the above, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments more particularly described. On the contrary, it encompasses all the variants and in particular those where there are more than two push buttons, where the cover of the push button does not directly move the rod but does so via electromechanical and / or pneumatic means, the one where the passage opening of the rod in the film is of different shape.
