Definitions

  • This invention relates to a swimming pool assembly comprising columns and wall elements which are fastenable to the columns, for the formation of an erected wall of a swimming pool.
  • swimming pools exist.
  • a first distinction can be made between swimming pools of the permanent type and swimming pools which are temporarily erected.
  • This invention relates to permanent-type swimming pools which are intended to remain erected for a long period. These are preferably (but not exclusively) buried in the ground.
  • a second distinction can be made between swimming pools which per se are of watertight construction and swimming pools which are made watertight with the aid of a canvas.
  • This canvas can be made of various materials and can assume various shapes and thicknesses.
  • swimming pools which per se are of watertight construction are typically produced from one piece. These are, for example, polyester shells or seamless concrete swimming pools. These require a great deal of specialist knowledge for their production and/or installation. The delivery of polyester swimming pools and the installation thereof is work for professionals.
  • This invention relates to swimming pools which are made watertight with the aid of a watertight canvas. More specifically, this invention relates to swimming pools of the type which are modularly constructed. There are already a number of swimming pool assemblies on the market for installing a modular-type swimming pool, of which it is claimed that they can be quite easily installed by private individuals.
  • a further problem is that, when a swimming pool is buried, the walls thereof have to withstand the pressures applied thereto, that is to say the pressure of the earth and groundwater present herein, on the outside, on the one hand, and water pressure of water introduced into the swimming pool, on the other hand.
  • An example of a modular swimming pool of this type is known, for example, from US 2005/0091934 A1 .
  • An alternative modular swimming pool is described in FR 2 846 991 A1 .
  • circular beams have additionally to be cast from concrete, which once again makes the installation of the swimming pool more laborious, makes it more prone to installation errors and requires the necessary drying time.
  • the object of this invention is to provide a swimming pool assembly and a method for installing a swimming pool with which it becomes easier for private individuals to themselves install a permanently watertight swimming pool.
  • a swimming pool assembly comprising columns and wall elements which are fastenable to the columns, for the formation of an erected wall of a swimming pool, wherein the swimming pool assembly comprises transverse beams for the mutual fastening of the columns, wherein the wall elements are designed for fastening to the transverse beams for the fastening of the wall elements to the columns, and wherein the wall elements are made of multi-walled plastic.
  • a particularly solid wall can be readily erected.
  • the frame can firstly be more easily trued than when individual columns have to be trued or a fully erected wall has to be trued. Only after the truing of this frame should the wall elements be fastened hereto. Deviations which hereupon arise will be less pronounced than in the erection of a swimming pool according to the prior art. Since a herewith erected wall can be made particularly solid, it can better absorb external pressures, so that the risks involved in the introduction of water into the swimming pool and banking-up of the swimming pool on the outside are more limited.
  • a swimming pool erected in this way no longer has to be filled with water and banked up in a totally secure manner, step by step, but, in contrast to swimming pools of this type according to the prior art, can be immediately filled up with water.
  • This swimming pool can then be banked up on all sides, or not, according to choice.
  • the wall elements themselves can be made lighter than in the prior art, i.e. from multi-wall plastic, so that they are easy to handle.
  • multi-wall wall elements allow these to be easily fastened to the transverse beams with screws, for example, which engage in one of the walls, but not in all the walls, such that the wall element does not have to be fully perforated.
  • multiple wall elements have an insulating function as an additional advantage.
  • a swimming pool assembly according to this invention is preferably designed such that, in the mounted state, the columns extend on the other side of the transverse beams from the wall elements.
  • the rigidity of the construction is thereby further increased in a simple manner. Moreover, it is in this way easier to obtain an aligned plane of the frame against which the wall elements can be placed, with virtually no loss of accuracy.
  • a swimming pool assembly also comprises struts, for supporting the columns and/or the transverse beams.
  • a strut of this type is, in the mounted state, a beam, post or stanchion placed obliquely against a respective column or transverse beam.
  • Such struts are added to increase the rigidity of the construction.
  • these struts are preferably designed to support the columns. This simplifies the truing of the erected wall of the swimming pool.
  • a particularly preferred embodiment of a swimming pool assembly comprises for each column a column base, for the hinge-fastening of the column on a foundation, and for each strut a strut base, for the fastening of the strut on the foundation, wherein each strut is hinge-fastenable to a respective said column or a respective said transverse beam and is displaceable, in a direction virtually transversely to this column or transversely to this transverse beam, relative to the respective strut base.
  • a displaceably erected strut of this type it is particularly easy to true the columns and thus the frame of columns and transverse beams. The columns, the frame and the struts are firstly put in place.
  • each column is fixed still further relative to the corresponding column base.
  • the wall elements of a swimming pool assembly according to this invention are preferably mutually connectable with the aid of a tongue and groove joint. With such a tongue and groove joint, wall elements can be neatly linked to one another in a simple manner. By fastening the wall elements to the transverse beams, a situation in which the mutual connection of the wall elements could accidentally come loose again is subsequently avoided.
  • these wall elements are preferably mutually connectable with the aid of a click joint.
  • wall elements can be neatly linked to one another in a simple manner. With the aid of such a click joint, plastic wall elements will also be slower to accidentally come loose again. This simplifies the assembly thereof.
  • the columns and/or the transverse beams of a swimming pool assembly according to this invention are preferably made of metal.
  • the columns can more specifically be constructed as profiles having a substantially ⁇ -shaped cross section.
  • the transverse beams can more specifically be constructed as profiles having a substantially Z-shaped cross section.
  • this swimming pool assembly preferably comprises edging elements, for fastening at the top of the wall elements.
  • edging elements of this type a continuous edging can be formed at the top of the wall of this swimming pool.
  • a swimming pool assembly of this type further preferably also comprises auxiliary edging elements, which are designed to, in the mounted state, following fastening of the edging elements at the top of the wall elements, extend on the side of the columns over a certain distance transversely to these wall elements.
  • auxiliary edging elements can be fastened to or form part of the edging elements, or can be fastened, for example, on top of one or more transverse beams.
  • auxiliary edging elements of this type a continuous edging can be formed next to the top edge of the wall of a swimming pool erected with the swimming pool assembly.
  • Such an edging is particularly suitable for the placement of edging stones hereon, so that these edging stones do not, over time, subside relative to the top edge of the swimming pool.
  • a swimming pool assembly according to this invention also further preferably comprises a base plate, for the fastening of the columns hereon, and a canvas, for the screening of the wall elements and the base plate.
  • a swimming pool assembly of this type comprises the abovementioned edging elements, then these edging elements are preferably provided with a slot, in which the canvas is fittable, for the fastening of the canvas. This allows simple assembly of the canvas.
  • the object of this invention is additionally also achieved by providing a method for installing a swimming pool, wherein a base plate is provided, wherein columns of an above-described swimming pool assembly according to this invention are fastened on this base plate, wherein the transverse beams of this swimming pool assembly are fastened to these columns, and wherein the wall elements of this swimming pool assembly are fastened to these transverse beams.
  • the columns are fastened on the base plate with the aid of the abovementioned column bases
  • the struts are fastened on the base plate with the aid of the abovementioned strut bases and hinge-fastened to the respective column
  • the position of the struts is adjusted relative to the strut bases until the respective column stands true.
  • the depicted swimming pool assembly (1) comprises a base plate (16), which is preferably constructed in reinforced concrete.
  • This base plate (16) has a larger surface area than the surface area of the swimming pool, so that the swimming pool is completely encircled by an edging of the base plate (16).
  • These columns (2) are metal profiles having a substantially ⁇ -shaped cross section.
  • flanges (15) project outwards relative to these legs (14).
  • transverse beams (4) are metal profiles having a substantially Z-shaped cross section. With a first vertical flange of this Z-shape, these are fastened to the columns (2). On the other vertical flange of this Z-shape, wall elements (3) are fastened to these transverse beams (4).
  • the wall elements (3) are double-walled plastics profiles, which can be made, for example, from PVC. On a first longitudinal side these comprise a tongue (10), and on their opposite longitudinal side these comprise a groove (11). With the aid of their tongues (10) and grooves (11), these wall elements (3) can be mutually coupled with the aid of a tongue and groove joint (10, 11). These tongues (10) are provided, moreover, with first click elements (12), and the grooves are provided, moreover, with corresponding second click elements (13), so that these wall elements (3), upon mutual coupling thereof, are also mutually fastened with a click joint (12, 13).
  • the columns (2) of the swimming pool assembly (1) are supported with the aid of struts (5), which at their one end are fastened to the base plate (16) with the aid of a strut base (8) and at their other end are hinge-fastened to the corresponding column (2) with the aid of a bolt (22).
  • the strut bases (8) are provided with slots (19), through which a bolt (20), which is likewise fitted through the corresponding strut (5), is displaceably fitted, in order to fasten this strut (5) to this strut base (8).
  • edging elements (9) are mounted at the top of the wall elements (3). Beside these edging elements (9) extend auxiliary edging elements (17, 18), which are mounted on top of the uppermost transverse beams (4). These auxiliary edging elements (17, 18) offer support for the placement of edging stones herein, so that these edging stones do not, over time, subside relative to the top edge of the swimming pool. On the non-depicted side of the edging elements (9), these edging elements (9) are provided with a slot, in which a non-depicted canvas is fittable in order to make the swimming pool watertight.
  • a base plate (16), made of reinforced concrete, will first be provided. After this, the columns (2) are placed with the aid of the column bases (7) onto this base plate (16). Onto the columns (2) are bolted the transverse beams (4).
  • the struts (5) are on the one hand fastened to the base plate (16) with the aid of the strut bases (8) and are on the other hand bolted to the respective columns (2). The position of the struts (5) relative to the strut bases (8) is adjusted until the whole stands true. After this, the wall elements (3) are bolted to the transverse beams (4).
  • the edging elements (9) are mounted at the top of the wall elements (3) and the auxiliary edging elements (17, 18) are mounted at the top of the transverse beams (4).
  • the necessary apparatus (26) is mounted and the canvas is fitted into the slot in the edging elements (9).
  • the swimming pool is then filled with water. Given that the depicted swimming pool assembly, following installation, is fully self-supporting, it is in this case unnecessary to bank this up on the outside. It is banked up on the outside when it is wished to bury the swimming pool.
