Escalera.Stairs.

Object of the invention

EscaleraStairs

Field of the Invention

Esta escalera está destinada principalmente para ser instalada en piscinas.This ladder is primarily intended for be installed in swimming pools

Background of the invention

Las escaleras para piscinas están constituidas generalmente por dos montantes que se fijan al borde de la piscina y que comprenden entre ellos varios peldaños.The stairs for swimming pools are constituted usually by two uprights that are fixed to the edge of the pool and that include several steps between them.

Estas escaleras resultan dificultosas, sobre todo cuando se han de subir, principalmente para las personas muy mayores, para los niños, y para las personas con alguna disminución física, con el peligro de que puedan no acertar en el apoyo sucesivo de los peldaños, con las desagradables consecuencias de golpes y caídas que pueden dañar a los usuarios de la piscina.These stairs are difficult, about all when they have to climb, mainly for people very older, for children, and for people with some decline physical, with the danger that they may not succeed in support successive of the steps, with the unpleasant consequences of bumps and falls that can harm the users of the pool.

Summary of the invention

Es objeto de esta invención una escalera que elimina estos inconvenientes para lo cual se caracteriza porque comprende un solo peldaño que asciende y baja por una armazón sujetada a la piscina y que presenta mandos para la acción sobre medios preferentemente mecánicos que determinan el desplazamiento del peldaño.The object of this invention is a ladder that eliminates these inconveniences for which it is characterized because It comprises a single step that goes up and down a frame attached to the pool and presenting controls for action on preferably mechanical means that determine the displacement of the step.

La indicada armazón comprende al menos un montante por el que se desplaza el peldaño y que forma superiormente un asidero lateral, comprendiendo al menos uno de los asideros los mandos de accionamiento.The indicated framework comprises at least one amount by which the step moves and which forms superiorly a side handle, comprising at least one of the handles the operating controls.

Estas y otras características se desprenderán mejor de la descripción detallada que sigue, para facilitar la cual se acompaña de dos láminas de dibujos en las que se ha representado un caso práctico de realización que se cita solamente a título de ejemplo no limitativo del alcance de la presente invención.These and other features will come off better than the detailed description that follows, to facilitate which It is accompanied by two sheets of drawings in which it has been represented a case study that is cited only by way of non-limiting example of the scope of the present invention.

Detailed description

De acuerdo con los dibujos la escalera comprende una armazón (1) que comprende dos montantes (2 y 3) tubulares que superiormente son solidarios de tramos horizontales (4 y 5) mediante los que se sujeta la armazón al borde superior (B) de la piscina, e inferiormente presentan una base (6) que mediante conteras elásticas (7) se aplica contra la pared (P) de la piscina.According to the drawings, the ladder comprises a frame (1) comprising two tubular uprights (2 and 3) that superiorly they are solidary of horizontal sections (4 and 5) through which the frame is attached to the upper edge (B) of the pool, and inferiorly present a base (6) that by elastic beams (7) are applied against the wall (P) of the pool.

En esta armazón se instala un solo peldaño (8) acoplado sobre un soporte hueco (9), y que está vinculado al extremo inferior de un cable (10) (figura 3) que pasa por un tubo vertical (11) y que superiormente se enrolla en un torno (12) con ranura helicoidal que es desplazable lateralmente sobre un eje (13) helicoidal accionado giratoriamente mediante un motor eléctrico (no representado). Dicho torno, el motor eléctrico y el mecanismo de transmisión están alojados en una caja (14). Con dicho cable se consigue el desplazamiento del peldaño hacia arriba en el giro del torno (12), y hacia abajo el peldaño desciende por
gravedad.In this frame a single step (8) is installed, coupled on a hollow support (9), and which is connected to the lower end of a cable (10) (figure 3) that passes through a vertical tube (11) and which is superiorly It is wound on a lathe (12) with a helical groove that is laterally movable on a helical shaft (13) rotatably driven by an electric motor (not shown). Said lathe, the electric motor and the transmission mechanism are housed in a box (14). With said cable the movement of the step up in the turn of the lathe (12) is achieved, and down the step descends by
gravity.

Los montantes (2 y 3) se rematan superiormente formando sendos asideros (15 y 16) en uno de los cuales están instalados los mandos (17 y 17') de accionamiento sobre el motor eléctrico para desplazar el peldaño.The uprights (2 and 3) are topped off forming two handles (15 and 16) in one of which are installed the drive controls (17 and 17 ') on the motor electric to move the step.

Para conseguir el desplazamiento del peldaño en horizontalidad correcta, por uno de sus extremos se desplaza por el montante (3) y por el tubo (11) mediante apoyos rodantes (18) formados por rodillos acanalados dispuestos opuestamente y a distinta altura (figura 2). Por el otro extremo el peldaño se apoya ajustadamente sobre el montante (2) mediante patines (19) acanalados y dispuestos diametralmente opuestos.To get the movement of the step in correct horizontality, by one of its ends it moves through the upright (3) and by the tube (11) by rolling supports (18) formed by ribbed rollers arranged opposite and to different height (figure 2). On the other end the step is supported tightly on the stud (2) by skates (19) ribbed and arranged diametrically opposite.

Con el fin de evitar el roce de los dedos de los pies contra la pared de la piscina se ha previsto en el borde posterior del peldaño (8) un faldón elástico (20) dirigido hacia arriba.In order to avoid rubbing the fingers of the feet against the pool wall is planned on the edge back of the step (8) an elastic skirt (20) directed towards above.

La armazón (1) se puede simplificar, y con ello abaratar el coste de la escalera, suprimiendo los tubos verticales (a) y (b) y el travesaño inferior (c) que los une.The frame (1) can be simplified, and with it reduce the cost of the stairs, suppressing the vertical pipes (a) and (b) and the lower crossbar (c) that joins them.

Con el fin de evitar que en la bajada del peldaño (8) pueda quedar aprisionado entre éste y la base (6) cualquier usuario, principalmente los niños, por ejemplo al ser aprisionado por uno de sus miembros e incluso por la cabeza, puede eliminarse el tramo de la base (6) situado entre los montantes (2) y (3) y unir estos con un travesaño dispuesto en la parte posterior de la armazón (1) que podría ser un travesaño como el (c).In order to prevent the descent of the step (8) can be trapped between it and the base (6) any user, mainly children, for example by being imprisoned by one of its members and even by the head, it can remove the section of the base (6) located between the uprights (2) and (3) and join these with a crossbar arranged at the back of the frame (1) that could be a crossbar like (c).

La invención, dentro de su esencialidad, puede ser llevada a la práctica en otras formas de realización que difieran solo en detalle de la indicada únicamente a título de ejemplo, a las cuales alcanzará igualmente la protección que se recaba. Podrá, pues, fabricarse esta escalera en cualquier forma y tamaño, con los medios y materiales más adecuados y con los accesorios más convenientes, pudiendo los elementos componentes ser sustituidos por otros técnicamente equivalentes, por quedar todo ello comprendido dentro del espíritu de las reivindicaciones.The invention, within its essentiality, can be put into practice in other embodiments that differ only in detail from that indicated solely by way of example, which will also achieve the protection that collect. This ladder can be manufactured in any way and size, with the most appropriate media and materials and with the more convenient accessories, the component elements being able to be replaced by other technically equivalent ones, because everything remains this included within the spirit of the claims.
