DESCRIPTION
La présente invention est relative aux regards de comptage qui sont placés sur certains branchements d'abonnés du réseau d'adduction d'eau potable (cas des branchements suffisamment longs ou l'on place le compteur d'eau dans un regard à la limite de la propriété privée au lieu de le mettre dans la cave de l'immeuble).DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to metering manholes which are placed on certain connections of subscribers of the drinking water supply network (case of sufficiently long connections where the water meter is placed in a manhole at the limit of private property instead of putting it in the basement of the building).
Jusqu'à présent, ces regards (circulaires ou rectangulaires) étaient soit confectionnés sur place. (par exemple béton ou agglos) ou édifiés en anneaux circulaires en béton ou encore préfabriqués (il fallait les mettre en place avec un camion-grue). Until now, these manholes (circular or rectangular) were either made on site. (for example concrete or agglos) or built in circular concrete rings or even prefabricated (they had to be put in place with a crane truck).
Plus récemment, on a pensé à des systèmes plus légers (par exemple regards en plastique circulaires d'un diamètre plus petit à la base qu'd la surface du sol). More recently, we have thought of lighter systems (for example circular plastic manholes with a smaller diameter at the base than the ground surface).
Le diamètre ou la longueur de ces regards est en général de l'ordre de 0,80 à -1,20 m ; la profondeur, selon les régions, 0,80 à 1,20 m. Ces regards sont coiffés de couvercles de diamètre 0,60 à 0,80 m en béton ou en fonte assez laids et voyants dans les abords d'une pro piété privée et de surcroit relativement lourds et difficiles à dégager, ce qui décourage bon nombre de releveurs qui doivent soulever ces couvercles et descendre tant bien que mal dans les regards souvent sales et humides pour lire le compteur. The diameter or the length of these manholes is generally of the order of 0.80 to -1.20 m; the depth, depending on the region, 0.80 to 1.20 m. These manholes are topped with covers of diameter 0.60 to 0.80 m in concrete or fairly ugly and conspicuous cast iron in the vicinity of a private property and moreover relatively heavy and difficult to clear, which discourages many lifters who must lift these covers and go down as best they can in the often dirty and damp manholes to read the meter.
L'invention a pour but de remédier à trois inconvénients majeurs - éviter à ce que les releveurs de compteurs (il s'agit en général de
personnes agrées, retraités, etc.) soient obligés de "descendre" dans
les regards pour lire l'index du compteur - éviter au préposé l'obligation de "soulever et de déplacez" un couvercle
lourd et parfois difficile à dégager - enfin, remplacer les capots laids et encombrants par un cuverc1e
beaucoup plus petit, donc beaucoup plus "discret".The object of the invention is to remedy three major drawbacks - to prevent meter readers (generally these are
approved, retired, etc.) are obliged to "descend" in
manholes to read the meter index - avoid the attendant having to "lift and move" a cover
heavy and sometimes difficult to remove - finally, replace the ugly and bulky covers with a tank
much smaller, therefore much more "discreet".
Le regard de comptage, objet de la présente invention, est un regard léger préfabriqué métallique, protégé contre la corrosion, et entièrement équipé1 qu'il suffit de poser et de raccorder. The counting manhole, object of the present invention, is a light prefabricated metal manhole, protected against corrosion, and fully equipped1 which it suffices to install and connect.
L'invention pourra de toute façon etre bien comprise à l'aide du complément de description qui suit ainsi que des dessins ciannexés, lesquels complément et dessins, sont relatifs à un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention et ne comportent, bien entendu, aucun caractère limitatif. The invention may in any case be well understood with the aid of the additional description which follows as well as of the attached drawings, which supplement and drawings, relate to a preferred embodiment of the invention and do not, of course, include no limiting character.
La figure 1 de ces dessins est une coupe selon un plan vertical passant près de l'axe du regard de comptage. Figure 1 of these drawings is a section along a vertical plane passing near the axis of the counting manhole.
La figure 2 est une coupe du regard selon un plan horizontal et qui met en évidence le bloc compteur et ses tuyaux de raccordement flexibles placés au fond du regard. Figure 2 is a section of the manhole in a horizontal plane and which highlights the meter block and its flexible connection pipes placed at the bottom of the manhole.
La figure 3 est une vue perspective de la tige dite intérieure soudée sur sa plaque support. Figure 3 is a perspective view of the so-called inner rod welded to its support plate.
La figure 4 représente le tube (dans lequel se trouve la tige précitée) avec sa poignée et son mode de fixation à l'étrier du bloc compteur. FIG. 4 represents the tube (in which the aforementioned rod is located) with its handle and its method of attachment to the stirrup of the counter block.
La figure 5 représente l'ensemble des éléments assemblés des figures 3 et 4. FIG. 5 represents all of the assembled elements of FIGS. 3 and 4.
La figure 6 est une vue perspective de la plaque à laquelle sont fixés les deux manchons de raccordement de la conduite du regard. Figure 6 is a perspective view of the plate to which are fixed the two connecting sleeves of the manhole.
La figure 7 représente l'une des deux ouvertures pratiquées à la base de la paroi cylindrique du regard et permettant le passage de la plaque qui supporte les deux manchons de raccordement. FIG. 7 represents one of the two openings made at the base of the cylindrical wall of the manhole and allowing the passage of the plate which supports the two connection sleeves.
Enfin la figure 8 représente sous forme schématique une vue de côté partielle du regard (partie supérieure avec le col) et la vue du dessus du regard (grand et petit couvercles). Finally, FIG. 8 represents in schematic form a partial side view of the manhole (upper part with the neck) and the top view of the manhole (large and small covers).
Le dispositif se compose de deux parties essentielles - le regard proprement dit constitué d'une enveloppe (1) verticale cylin
drique de diamètre 0,90 à 1,00 m (tôle forte du genre ondulée) coiffée
d'un grand couvercle (environ 30 cm sous lè'sol) comportant un col (2)
(hauteur environ 30 cm, diamètre environ 30 cm) sur lequel repose le
petit couvercle dit "discret" (3) et qui, après mise en place du regard,
se retrouve à ras du sol.The device is made up of two essential parts - the manhole itself consisting of a vertical cylinder casing (1)
drique of diameter 0.90 to 1.00 m (strong corrugated iron sheet) capped
a large cover (about 30 cm below the floor) with a collar (2)
(height about 30 cm, diameter about 30 cm) on which the
small lid called "discreet" (3) and which, after positioning the manhole,
is found flush with the ground.
La paroi circulaire du regard et le système "grand cou
vercle avec col et petit couvercle" peuvent entre séparés lors du trans
port de l'appareil ; ainsi, deux regards au minimum peuvent être placés
dans une fourgonnette classique d'un service des eaux (abandon du
camion-grue). Le regard peut être posé sur un lit de gravier ou des
briques placées en fond de fouille - le bloc compteur d'eau (4) composé du compteur proprement dit, des
raccords, d'un robinet amont et d'une pièce formant clapet et vi
dange en aval g ces pièces sont fixées à l'étrier (7). Comme montré
sur les figures 4 et 5, celui-ci est soudé à un tube vertical (9)
comportant une poignée (11). Le tube est guidé par une tige inté
rieure (10) soudée sur une plaque support (13) à la base du regard.The circular wall of the manhole and the "large neck" system
ring with neck and small cover "can be separated when trans
wearing the device; thus, at least two manholes can be placed
in a conventional van of a water service (abandonment of
truck crane). The gaze can be placed on a bed of gravel or
bricks placed at the bottom of the excavation - the water meter block (4) composed of the meter itself,
fittings, an upstream tap and a valve part and vi
downstream danger g these parts are fixed to the bracket (7). As shown
in Figures 4 and 5, it is welded to a vertical tube (9)
comprising a handle (11). The tube is guided by an internal rod
lower (10) welded to a support plate (13) at the base of the manhole.
L'ensemble "tube-tige" vertical permet la remontée du bloc compteur vers le col (2) qui se trouve à sa verticale. Il peut d'ailleurs etre maintenu en position haute gracie au petit crochet (12) fixé sur le tube (10). L'étrier (7) est fixé sur le tube (9) (voir figure 4) à une distance telle que le compteur se retrouve légèrement au-dessus du fond du regard (moins de risque d'être en contact avec la terre ou l'eau, meilleure articulation des raccords flexibles (6) lors de 1' ascension et la descente du bloc compteur). The vertical "tube-rod" assembly allows the counter block to go up towards the neck (2) which is vertical. It can also be kept in the upper position thanks to the small hook (12) fixed on the tube (10). The bracket (7) is fixed to the tube (9) (see Figure 4) at a distance such that the counter is slightly above the bottom of the manhole (less risk of being in contact with the ground or the water, better articulation of the flexible connections (6) during the ascent and descent of the meter block).
Le bloc compteur est relié par l'intermédiaire de tuyaux flexibles souples (PVC armé) aux raccords spéciaux "entrée" et "sortie" (5) fixés sur une tole (8) (figures 2 et 61 qui est pratiquement placée diamétralement opposé à la plaque support compteur. The meter block is connected via flexible flexible hoses (reinforced PVC) to the special "inlet" and "outlet" (5) fittings fixed on a sheet (8) (Figures 2 and 61 which is practically placed diametrically opposite the counter support plate.
Les tubes flexibles en PVC (et qui se croisent au-dessus de la plaque 8) sont suffisamment longs pour permettre la remontée aisée du compteur. Des évidements (i45 taillés dans l'enveloppe cylindrique (1) (figure 7) permettent l'entrée et la sortie de la conduite flexible vers les deux raccords (5) fixés sur la plaque (8) ; c1 est à ce niveau que se pratique la jonction du regard de comptage aux conduites d'eau "arrivée" et "départ". The flexible PVC tubes (which cross over the plate 8) are long enough to allow the meter to be raised easily. Recesses (i45 cut in the cylindrical casing (1) (Figure 7) allow the entry and exit of the flexible pipe to the two fittings (5) fixed on the plate (8); c1 is at this level that is practice the connection of the counting manhole to the "incoming" and "outgoing" water pipes.
Ce regard de comptage avec son capot 'discret2' a comme atout majeur d'éviter au personnel de descendre dans le regard : opra- tion souvent acrobatique et salissante. Le Compteur peut entre lu à partir de la surface : il peut même, à partir de ld, être remplacé ainsi que les raccords et robinets voisins. This counting look with its 'discreet2' hood has the major advantage of avoiding staff going down into the look: this operation is often acrobatic and messy. The Meter can between read from the surface: it can even, from ld, be replaced as well as the neighboring fittings and taps.
