Description

Protector isotérmico para grifos.Isothermal tap guard.

Object of the invention

La invención, tal como expresa el enunciado de la presente memoria descriptiva, se refiere a un protector isotérmico para grifos.The invention, as expressed in the statement of The present specification refers to a protector isothermal for taps.

Más concretamente el objeto de la invención consiste en un protector cuya finalidad estriba en configurarse como elemento isotérmico para proteger los grifos exteriores de casas y/o edificios frente a las bajas temperaturas, evitando que se hielen sin tener que dejarlos goteando para que no se congele el agua en su interior y se deterioren.More specifically the object of the invention It consists of a protector whose purpose is to configure as an isothermal element to protect the external faucets of houses and / or buildings facing low temperatures, preventing they freeze without having to let them drip so they don't freeze the water inside and deteriorate.

Background of the invention

Como es sabido, en los lugares en que durante el invierno las temperaturas alcanzan valores bajo cero, los grifos que se encuentran en el exterior son fácilmente susceptibles de sufrir daños al congelarse el agua en su interior. En orden a evitar dichos daños, es frecuente dejarlo parcialmente abiertos, de forma que exista un ligero goteo que haga circular el agua evitando su congelación.As is known, in the places where during winter temperatures reach below zero values, the taps found outside are easily susceptible to be damaged by freezing the water inside. In order to avoid such damage, it is often left partially open, of so that there is a slight drip that circulates the water avoiding freezing.

Dicha solución, sin embargo, no siempre es efectiva, y además, conlleva el consiguiente consumo de agua que se pierde.That solution, however, is not always effective, and in addition, entails the consequent consumption of water that misses.

Se hace por tanto necesaria la creación de sistemas que permitan dar soluciones efectivas a la problemática citada, siendo este el principal objetivo de la presente invención, sobre la cual, por otra parte, cabe señalar que el solicitante desconoce la existencia de ninguna otra que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y de configuración semejantes, a las que presenta la que aquí se preconiza.The creation of systems that allow to give effective solutions to the problem cited, this being the main objective of the present invention, on which, on the other hand, it should be noted that the applicant ignores the existence of any other that presents some technical, structural and configuration features similar, to the ones presented here.

Explanation of the invention.

Así, el protector isotérmico para grifos que la invención propone se configura por sí mismo como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, ya que alcanza satisfactoriamente los objetivos anteriormente señalados, estando los detalles caracterizadores que lo distinguen adecuadamente recogidos en las reivindicaciones finales que acompañan a la presente memoria descriptiva.Thus, the isothermal faucet protector that the proposed invention configures itself as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, since it reaches satisfactorily the aforementioned objectives, being the characterizing details that distinguish it properly set out in the final claims that accompany the Present descriptive report.

En particular el protector en cuestión consiste en una cobertura isotérmica de tejido impermeable, configurada a modo de bolsa, por cuya boca se introduce el grifo a proteger, contando con medios adecuados que posibilitan su fijación a él, manteniéndolo suficientemente aislado del exterior. Dichos medios, sin que ello suponga una limitación, consisten en unos cordones que se ciñen al conducto al que se encuentra acoplado el grifo.In particular the protector in question consists in an isothermal cover of waterproof fabric, configured to bag mode, through whose mouth the tap to be protected is introduced, having adequate means that make it possible to fix it, keeping it sufficiently isolated from the outside. These means, without this implying a limitation, they consist of cords that they are attached to the duct to which the tap is attached.

Dicha bolsa está confeccionada, tal como se ha dicho, con tejido impermeable y es isotérmica, contando con una capa exterior de poliamida, tal como Nylon® 210t, resistente al agua, 1500 mmHg, y una capa interior igualmente de poliamida similar, tal como Nylon® 210t, resistente al agua, 1000 mmHg, contando entre dichas capas con un relleno de poliéster de 400 g/m^{2}.Said bag is made, as it has been said, with waterproof fabric and is isothermal, with a Polyamide outer layer, such as Nylon® 210t, resistant to water, 1500 mmHg, and an inner layer of polyamide similar, such as Nylon® 210t, waterproof, 1000 mmHg, counting between these layers with a polyester filling of 400 g / m2.

De esta forma, el grifo queda totalmente cubierto por la bolsa isotérmica que lo mantendrá a una temperatura adecuada para que el agua no se congele, independientemente de la temperatura existente en el exterior, evitando ventajosamente con ello los posibles daños que podría causar en el grifo dicha congelación.In this way, the tap is completely covered by the isothermal bag that will keep it at a temperature adequate so that the water does not freeze, regardless of the outside temperature, advantageously avoiding with this the possible damages that could cause in the tap said freezing.

El nuevo protector isotérmico para grifos representa, por consiguiente, una estructura innovadora de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita.The new isothermal faucet guard represents, therefore, an innovative structure of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown up to now for that purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, the provide sufficient grounds to obtain the privilege of exclusivity requested.
