Abstract

The invention relates to a device which makes is possible to select the quantity of water necessary according to requirements. Pressing one or the other of the two push buttons H or B selects the volume of water, the latter being introduced by the solenoid valve 2. When the level of the water reaches the sensors 4 or 5, visually indicated by one or the other of the indicator lamps 6 or 7, the control device is reset to zero, and is available for the next use. Emptying takes place by use of the usual lever.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention est une chasse d'eau électrique à deux volumes sélectionnables,destinée aux g C à réserve d'eau.
DESCRIPTION
The present invention is an electric flush with two selectable volumes, intended for g C with water reserve.

Le système mécanique est actuellement très souvent sujet à des réglages fastidieux.La partie bouchon du levier n'est pas très étanche.Le robinet commandé par le flotteur n'est de ce fait pas complètement fermé,et l'eau suinte en permanence d'où il s'en suit un bruit d'écoulement continu dans les canalisations, une perte excessive d'eau à l'égout et des traces inélégantes de tartre dans la cuvette. The mechanical system is currently very often subject to tedious adjustments. The plug part of the lever is not very tight. The valve controlled by the float is therefore not completely closed, and the water constantly oozes from where it follows a continuous flow noise in the pipes, excessive loss of water in the sewer and inelegant traces of tartar in the bowl.

Une électrovanne,normalexent fermée,est insérée dans le circuit d'alimentation en eau du réservoir. A solenoid valve, normally closed, is inserted in the water supply circuit of the tank.

Celui-ci est initialement vide lorsque les toilettes ne sont pas utilisées,ceci supprimant les fuites perpétuelles et les autres inconvénients dé3à exposés précédemment.This one is initially empty when the toilets are not used, this eliminating the perpetual leaks and the other drawbacks described above.

L'usager,au moment de l'utilisation sélectionne à l'aide d'un des deux boutons poussoirs le volume d'eau souhaité en fonction des besoins. The user, at the time of use selects with one of the two push buttons the desired volume of water according to the needs.

le réservoir se rempli alors pendant le temps d'occupation des W C,et le dispositif revient à l'état zéro lorsque le niveau choisi est atteint. the tank is then filled during the occupation time of the W Cs, and the device returns to the zero state when the chosen level is reached.

L'évacuation de liteau se fait à l'aide du levier existant. The batten evacuation is done using the existing lever.

Dans cette version,le principe de détection du niveau se fait en utilisant la conductibilité électrique de l'eau par le passage drun courant continu.Ce- ci provoque un effet d'électrolyse qui se manifeste dans le temps,par une usure des capteurs.Mais cet inconvénient est. très réduit grace à un transistor amplificateur qui minimise ce phénomène.En effet l'intensité de ce signal est inférieur à 25 et ceci pendant une fraction de seconde.  In this version, the principle of level detection is done by using the electrical conductivity of the water by the passage of a direct current. This causes an electrolysis effect which manifests itself over time, through wear of the sensors. But this drawback is. very reduced thanks to an amplifier transistor which minimizes this phenomenon. Indeed the intensity of this signal is lower than 25 and this during a fraction of second.

Le schéma électrique joint (fig I ) représente l'ensemble du principe de fonctionnement du dispositif. The attached electrical diagram (fig I) represents the entire operating principle of the device.

Une impulsion sur le bouton poussoir H (I),grnd volume,excite le relais correspondant (13).En meme temps,il autorise l'alimentation 220 V au primaire(3) du transformateur,neutralise l'action de l'électro- vanne (24),celle-ci étant normalement fermée hors tension.le relais B (I2) étant également au repos. A push on the push button H (I), large volume, excites the corresponding relay (13). At the same time, it authorizes the 220 V supply to the primary (3) of the transformer, neutralizes the action of the electro- valve (24), the latter being normally closed when de-energized. Relay B (I2) is also at rest.

Donc,pendant la pression sur le bouton poussoir,le remplissage du réservoir est neutralisé. Therefore, during the pressing of the push button, the filling of the tank is neutralized.

Au relachement du bouton poussoir,le relais H étant automaintenu par le contact I7 va entretenir l'alimentation 220 V au primaire (3) du transformateur par 1'intermédiaire.du contact 23.Le contact 21 valide l'action du capteur 27,correspondant au niveau choisi. When the push button is released, the relay H being self-maintained by contact I7 will maintain the 220 V supply to the primary (3) of the transformer via contact 23. Contact 21 validates the action of sensor 27, corresponding at the chosen level.

Un témoin lumineux visualise la durée de remplissage.An indicator light shows the filling time.

L'électrovanne est alors alimentée.The solenoid valve is then supplied.

lorsque l'eau arrive au niveau sélectionné,les capteurs (25 et 27) établissent le contact.le signal est transmis à un transistor amplificateur (15) qui va éxciter,pendant une fraction de seconde,le relais de remise à zéro (I4) du circuit d'alimentation générale. when the water reaches the selected level, the sensors (25 and 27) establish contact. the signal is transmitted to an amplifier transistor (15) which will energize, for a fraction of a second, the reset relay (I4) of the general supply circuit.

En con3éqnence,l'électrovanne (24),privée d'alimentation,va arrêter l'eau. In consequence, the solenoid valve (24), deprived of supply, will stop the water.

Le processus de fonctionnement est le même pour l'autre niveau. The operating process is the same for the other level.

I1 est impossible de valider les" deu: niveaux à la fois.Il est possible de modifier les volumes,grand ou petit,en cours de remplissage. It is impossible to validate the "two levels at a time. It is possible to modify the volumes, large or small, during filling.

La figure 3 représente la position des cepteurs sur le réservoir.Ceux-ci pourront entre des vis en métal inoxydable,dont on assurera l'étanchéité à l'aide de joints du commerce.  Figure 3 shows the position of the sensors on the tank, which can be placed between stainless steel screws, which will be sealed using commercial seals.

I1 serait aisé aux fabricants de réservoirs de prévoir l'emplacement des capteurs de niveaux,soit en prévoyant aux places de ces capteurs une partie de céramique d'épaisseur réduite, enfoncer par un cEloc,par exemple.Soit en proposant les trous termines. It would be easy for tank manufacturers to predict the location of the level sensors, either by providing a portion of reduced thickness ceramic in the places of these sensors, for example by pushing in a cEloc. Or by proposing the completed holes.

Les avantages sont en partie exposés dans le principe de ce système,c'est à dire : bruits de canalisations supprimés(quand il n'y a pas d'utilisation),traces de tartre diminuées,consommation réduite de produit sanitaire,en effet,le produit ntest au contact de l'eau que le temps d'utilisation des lieux. The advantages are partly exposed in the principle of this system, that is to say: noises of pipes removed (when there is no use), traces of tartar reduced, reduced consumption of sanitary product, in fact, the product is only in contact with water for the time of use of the premises.

Egalement,modulation du volume d'eau utilisé.Ceci entraînant d'importantes économie d'eau. Also, modulation of the volume of water used, resulting in significant water savings.

En effet,un réservoir normal (W C domestique avec fixation sur le siège) contient I2 litres. Indeed, a normal tank (domestic W C with fixing on the seat) contains I2 liters.

Dans le cas de"petîts besoins" le volume d'eau peut-être ramené à 6 litres. In the case of "small needs" the volume of water can be reduced to 6 liters.

Economie : I2 - 6 = 6 litres. Economy: I2 - 6 = 6 liters.

En estimant' une fréquentation à 4 fois par jour l'économie est de
6 x 4 = 24 l/jour par per-
sonne.
By estimating a frequentation at 4 times a day the economy is
6 x 4 = 24 l / day per person
rings.

Sur une année:
28 x 365 = 8760 l/an par
personne.
Over a year:
28 x 365 = 8760 l / year per
nobody.

Sur I million d'usagers:
8760 x I 000 000 = 8.760 000 000 litres par an
Ceci démontre que l'économie prend des propor
tions très importantes. Cette "production supplémentaire pourrait trouver de multiples utilisations
par exemple,par le commerce extérieur à destination
des pays demandeurs d'eau douce.
Out of I million users:
8760 x I 000,000 = 8,760,000,000 liters per year
This shows that the economy is growing
very important. This "additional production could find multiple uses
for example, by foreign trade at destination
freshwater countries.
