Definitions
- the present invention relates to the technical field of outdoor swimming pool covers, for example for buried swimming pools, and more particularly relates to a device for protecting or covering a swimming pool basin.
- the cover is unrolled manually, to cover the pool basin.
- the cover can be unrolled, either overlapping the edges of the swimming pool basin, at the level of the copings, or in a floating position on the water of the swimming pool basin, in the case, for example, of a bubble cover . After unwinding of the cover, the latter can cooperate with anchoring means, relative to the pool basin.
- shutters composed of a plurality of articulated blades, shaped to float on the water of the swimming pool basin.
- the shutter cooperates with a winding drum, manual or motorized, located outside the pool basin, or in a compartment formed inside the pool basin.
- roller shutters for swimming pool basins emerges, for example, from the teaching of patent EP 1 233 125, given by way of indication, in no way limiting.
- the reel can be mobile and move in translation along the length of the pelvis. It is also known retractable terraces on rails, movable in translation with respect to the basin to cover or discover in whole or in part the swimming pool basin.
- the disadvantage of this solution is that it requires a significant area, at least equal to the area of the terrace, on at least one side of the pool to allow the full opening of the terrace.
- One of the aims of the invention is therefore to remedy the drawbacks of the prior art by proposing a device for covering a swimming pool basin which has a reduced bulk in the folded position relative to the devices of the state of the technical, while being simple, safe and rational in design.
- a device for covering a swimming pool basin in accordance with that of the prior art in that it comprises a flexible element, secured to a receiving structure, and intended to adopt a deployed position in which the flexible element is intended to cover at least part of the swimming pool basin and, a retracted position rolled up inside the receiving structure.
- the flexible element is wound in a planar and oblong configuration around two parallel rotating bars, linked in rotation, and spaced from each other.
- the flexible element is not wrapped around a drum, but around two bars in a planar and oblong configuration, this makes it possible to gain in compactness and therefore in height and volume.
- the flexible element can then have a greater length and be accommodated more easily inside the receiving structure, which is more aesthetic.
- the device is also easy to use.
- the flexible element is of any suitable type, and is for example a shutter with articulated slats, a tarpaulin, a bubble tarpaulin, a bar tarpaulin, or a protective net.
- the rotation of the bars is manually operable or is motorized, to wind / unwind the flexible element.
- the two bars are connected by a support, integral in rotation with the bars, making it possible to support the flexible element, one end of which is, for example, hooked to the support.
- the support is for example a conveyor belt, at least one band, or at least one strap.
- the bars define between them a horizontal or vertical plane.
- the receiving structure is movable in translation and drives the rotation of the bars in order to unwind or wind up and swallow the flexible element during its passage into the retracted position.
- the flexible element remains fixed and the receiving structure swallows it up to discover the pool basin.
- the flexible element may be intended to completely cover, in the deployed position, the swimming pool basin. However, when the flexible element partially covers the swimming pool basin, in the deployed position, the receiving structure forms a floor intended to cover the remaining uncovered part of the basin. Thus, the floor constitutes an additional surface or a terrace for leisure activities, for example.
- the receiving structure is preferably mounted on guide means, for example on rails, intended to be arranged along and on either side of the basin.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of a device for covering a swimming pool basin, seen from the side, with a bar cover in the retracted position.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic representation similar to that of FIG. 1, with a bar tarpaulin in the deployed covering position.
- the invention relates to a device (1) for covering a swimming pool basin (2), of generally rectangular shape, without thereby excluding other geometric shapes, in particular quadrangular.
- the invention applies to all types of basins (2) of buried swimming pools, whatever its embodiment.
- the device (1) for covering the basin (2) comprises a receiving structure (3) secured on at least one of its sides to a flexible element (4).
- the flexible element (4) is of any suitable type, and is for example a shutter with articulated slats, a tarpaulin, a bubble tarpaulin, a bar tarpaulin, a protective net, etc.
- the flexible element is positioned above the pool and not on the water.
- the receiving structure (3) can take the form of a floor and is preferably mobile, so as to be positioned either outside the basin (2) or covering only part of the basin ( 2).
- the receiving structure (3) can be produced by any known and appropriate means, and in different materials, from strips of wood, or of composite materials, in a single molded part or otherwise obtained.
- the flexible element (4) secured to the receiving structure (3) is intended to be either retracted relative to said receiving structure (3), corresponding to the non-covering of the basin (2) of the swimming pool by said flexible element (4), see figure 1, or deployed relative to the receiving structure (3) to cover the basin (2) of the swimming pool, see figure 2.
- the width of the receiving structure (3) is greater than the width of the basin (2) of the swimming pool, in order to be supported on the edges of said basin (2).
- the length of the receiving structure (3) is less than the length of the basin (2).
- the length of the receiving structure (3) is equal to half the length of the basin (2) of the swimming pool, in the case where it is a floor.
- the receiving structure (3) is mobile and mounted with the capacity to move in translation with respect to said basin (2).
- the receiving structure (3) is mounted on rails, not shown, placed along the basin (2) of the swimming pool, on either side of its lateral sides.
- the structure of reception (3) has all types of rolling and guide members cooperating with the rails, such as rollers (5), sliding shoes, etc. in order to allow movement and translational guidance of said reception structure (3) , as it is handled.
- the guide rails project over at least one of the transverse sides of the basin (2), to allow the positioning of the receiving structure (3) outside the basin (2).
- the flexible element (4) is secured to the receiving structure (3) with the ability to wind inside said structure, transversely to the basin (2) of the swimming pool.
- the flexible element (4) is wound in a planar and oblong configuration around two parallel rotating bars (6) , linked in rotation, and distant from each other so as to define between them a horizontal (illustrated) or vertical plane.
- the rotation of the bars (6) can be free and manually operable, for example, by the displacement of the receiving structure (3) itself, or the rotation of at least one of the bars (6) can be motorized.
- a bar (6) can be rotated and drive, by their connection, the rotation of the other bar (6).
- one of the bars (6) may comprise two end pinions cooperating with racks positioned along the rails, so as to drive the bar (6) in rotation during the movement of the receiving structure (3).
- the receiving structure (3) is movable in translation and drives the rotation of the bars (6), or conversely the rotation of one of the bars (6) drives the translation of the receiving structure (3) to wind or unwind the flexible element (4).
- the advancement of the receiving structure (3) makes it possible to unwind and deploy the flexible element (4) in the position of covering the pelvis (2), or to wind up and swallow the element.
- flexible (4) in the retracted position inside the receiving structure (3).
- the course of the flexible element (4) may consist of exert a traction, for example manual, on the end of said flexible element (4) to deploy it manually.
- the rotation of one of the bars (6) can directly cause the translation of the receiving structure (3) to uncover the pool basin (2) and wind the flexible element (4), and vice versa.
- the displacement of the receiving structure (3) makes it possible to deploy the flexible element (4) progressively to cover the pool basin (2).
- the bars (6) are interconnected by a support (7), integral in rotation with the bars (6), making it possible to support the flexible element (4) which, for example, is attached to the support (7) by the 'one of its ends.
- the support (7) is, for example a conveyor belt, at least one band, or at least one strap.
- the invention indeed provides a device (1) for covering a swimming pool basin (2) which has a reduced size compared to the devices (1) of the state of the art, simple to use. 'use, allowing to have a large length of tarpaulin, while remaining aesthetic and discreet due to a contained height.
