Abstract

The control mechanism A fixed to the upper part of the sink D and the equipment C associated with the bunghole 7-8-9 for emptying the sink are arranged in such a way that the core or cable 4 of the flexible connecting line B is moved with a motion of rotation, instead of the motion of axial translation of conventional devices.

Description

La présente invention a trait aux dispositifs de vidage pour éviers et similaires, du genre comprenant un mécanisme de commande manuelle place sur la partie superieure de l'evier et relié par un flexible à un appareillage prevu au niveau de la bonde inferieure de vidange, lequel appareillage renferme un doigt actionne par le flexible afin de se déplacer angulairement dans le plan vertical de la bonde en vue d'opérer la commande du clapet de fermeture monte dans celle-ci. The present invention relates to emptying devices for sinks and the like, of the type comprising a manual control mechanism placed on the upper part of the sink and connected by a hose to an apparatus provided at the lower drain plug, which apparatus contains a finger actuated by the hose in order to move angularly in the vertical plane of the plug in order to operate the control of the closing valve mounted therein.

Dans les dispositifs de vidage connus à l'heure actuelle, l'amie ou câble du flexible est actionné pour se déplacer axialement à l'intérieur de sa gaine de protection, alors que le mécanisme de commande est doté d'un organe de manoeuvre du type rotatif (levier pivotant ou bouton tournant), de telle sorte qu'aux deux extrémités du flexible, c'est-àdire au niveau du mécanisme de commande comme à celui de l'appareillage associe à la bonde, il y a lieu d'interposer entre l'extremite dudit flexible et la pièce mobile qui porte soit l'organe de manoeuvre, soit le doigt basculant, un élément apte à transformer le mouvement rotatif en mouvement axial ou vice-versa. In the emptying devices known at present, the friend or cable of the hose is actuated to move axially inside its protective sheath, while the control mechanism is provided with an operating member of the rotary type (pivoting lever or rotary knob), so that at both ends of the hose, that is to say at the level of the control mechanism as at that of the apparatus associated with the bung, it is necessary to interpose between the end of said flexible and the movable part which carries either the operating member or the tilting finger, an element capable of transforming the rotary movement into axial movement or vice versa.

Une telle obligation complique évidemment la construction du dispositif de vidage, avec des conséquences indésirables quant au coût et à la fiabilité de celui-ci. De plus et surtout, les deux éléments intermediaires de transformation de mouvement impliquent necessairement une perte de puissance qui se ressent au niveau du couple que l'utilisateur doit appliquer sur l'organe de manoeuvre du mecanisme de commande. Sur ce même point, on observera que la translation axiale de l'âme ou câble du flexible à l'interieur de sa gaine engendre un effet de frottement relativement important qui doit être surmonte par l'utilisateur, etant au surplus remarqué que ladite âme tend à se vriller dans sa gaine au début de chaque manoeuvre. Such an obligation obviously complicates the construction of the emptying device, with undesirable consequences as to the cost and the reliability thereof. In addition and above all, the two intermediate movement transformation elements necessarily imply a loss of power which is felt at the level of the torque that the user must apply to the operating member of the control mechanism. On this same point, it will be observed that the axial translation of the core or cable of the hose inside its sheath generates a relatively significant friction effect which must be overcome by the user, being furthermore noted that said core tends to twist in its sheath at the start of each maneuver.

C'est à ces inconvénients qu'entend remédier la présente invention, laquelle consiste essentiellement à substituer au mouvement de translation axiale de l'amie ou câble du flexible, un mouvement de rotation suivant son axe. It is to these drawbacks that the present invention intends to remedy, which essentially consists in replacing the axial translational movement of the friend or cable of the hose, a rotational movement along its axis.

Le dessin annexé, donne à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caracteristiques qu'elles présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer
Fig. 1 fait apparaître l'agencement général d'un dispositif de vidage comportant application des perfectionnements suivant la présente invention.
The appended drawing, given by way of example, will allow a better understanding of the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it is capable of providing.
Fig. 1 shows the general arrangement of a emptying device comprising application of improvements according to the present invention.

Fig. 2 est une coupe axiale du mécanisme de commande de ce même dispositif. Fig. 2 is an axial section of the control mechanism of this same device.

Fig. 3 est une coupe horizontale de l'appareillage associé à la bonde, suivant le plan indiqué en- III-III en fig. 1. Fig. 3 is a horizontal section of the apparatus associated with the drain, along the plane indicated in III-III in FIG. 1.

A la manière usuelle, le dispositif de vidage représenté en fig. 1 comprend un mécanisme de commande A relié par un flexible B à un appareillage C associe à la bonde prevue au niveau de l'ouverture menagee dans le fond d'un evier classique D. In the usual way, the emptying device shown in fig. 1 includes a control mechanism A connected by a flexible hose B to an apparatus C associated with the drain provided at the opening made in the bottom of a conventional sink D.

Comme plus particulièrement montre en fig. 2, le mecanisme de commande A comprend un corps 1 en forme de fourreau cylindrique, dont la péripherie est filetée afin de permettre le vissage d'un ecrou de fixation 2. Le serrage de cet ecrou assure la fixation de l'ensemble du mécanisme A dans l'ouverture usuelle des éviers, la paroi D de celui-ci étant pincée (avec interposition de joints d'etancheité) entre la tête débordante la dudit fourreau et l'ecrou 2. As more particularly shown in fig. 2, the control mechanism A comprises a body 1 in the form of a cylindrical sheath, the periphery of which is threaded so as to allow the screwing of a fixing nut 2. The tightening of this nut ensures the fixing of the entire mechanism A in the usual opening of sinks, the wall D thereof being pinched (with the interposition of sealing joints) between the overhanging head 1a of said sleeve and nut 2.

La base du fourreau 1 est pourvue d'un prolongement axial lb apte à être engage à force à l'interieur de la gaine de protection 3 du flexible B. L'âme 4 de ce dernier pénètre ainsi dans le fourreau 1 et est rendue solidaire, par soudure ou sertissage, d'un embout axial 5 etabli à une section polygonale. Sur cet embout 5 vient s'emmancher le moyeu 6a d'un petit volant ou bouton de manoeuvre 6, retenu axialement par des languettes élastiques lc decoupées dans la paroi du fourreau 1. The base of the sheath 1 is provided with an axial extension 1b capable of being forcibly engaged inside the protective sheath 3 of the hose B. The core 4 of the latter thus enters the sheath 1 and is made integral , by soldering or crimping, an axial tip 5 established in a polygonal section. On this endpiece 5 is fitted the hub 6a of a small flywheel or operating button 6, held axially by elastic tabs lc cut in the wall of the sleeve 1.

On comprend dans ces conditions que toute rotation impartie au bouton 6 est directement transmise à l'amie 4 du flexible B, laquelle âme se déplace donc angulairement dans la gaine 3 sans aucun mouvement de translation longitudinale. On observera à ce propos que l'amie 4 est maintenue dans la gaine 3 à l'encontre de tout vrillage intempestif, si bien que la transmission du mouvement est immediate, sans temps mort. It is understood under these conditions that any rotation imparted to the button 6 is directly transmitted to the friend 4 of the flexible B, which core therefore moves angularly in the sheath 3 without any longitudinal translational movement. It will be observed in this connection that the friend 4 is maintained in the sheath 3 against any untimely twisting, so that the transmission of the movement is immediate, without dead time.

Le système de bonde represente en fig. 1 est du type classique, en ce sens qu'il est forme par deux coupelles 7 et 8 emboîtées l'une dans l'autre et assemblees par des vis 9 dont le serrage assure le pinçage etanche du fond de la paroi D de l'evier entre lesdites coupelles. The drain system represented in fig. 1 is of the conventional type, in the sense that it is formed by two cups 7 and 8 fitted one inside the other and assembled by screws 9 whose tightening ensures the watertight clamping of the bottom of the wall D of the sink between said cups.

Dans la coupelle interieure 8 est monte un clapet 10 solidaire d'une part d'un guide ajoure 10a tourne vers le haut, d'autre part d'une queue axiale d'actionnement 10b tournee vers le bas ; on observera que cette queue 10b est guidee à l'interieur d'un manchon 8a menage dans le fond de la coupelle 8.In the inner cup 8 is mounted a valve 10 secured on the one hand to a perforated guide 10a turns upwards, on the other hand to an axial actuating tail 10b turned downwards; it will be observed that this tail 10b is guided inside a sleeve 8a formed in the bottom of the cup 8.

Comme représente en fig. 3, la coupelle extérieure 7 est solidaire lateralement d'un bossage tubulaire 7a orienté horizontalement et à l'intérieur duquel est monte à rotation un petit arbre 11, equipé de deux joints d'étanchéité 12. L'une des extrémités. de cet arbre l1 est découpée axialement d'une fente 11a dans laquelle est introduite l'extrémité aplatie d'un embout 13, solidaire d'une bride annulaire 13a et d'un prolongement axial 13b.La bride 13a coopère avec un chapeau de retenue 14 vissé-~sur ltextrémité ouverte, prévue filetée, du bossage 7a, tandis que le prolongement 13b est enfoncé à force dans la gaine 3 du flexible B dont l'amie 4 est fixée à l'embout 13 par sertissage ou soudage. As shown in fig. 3, the outer cup 7 is laterally integral with a tubular boss 7a oriented horizontally and inside which is mounted for rotation a small shaft 11, equipped with two seals 12. One of the ends. from this shaft 11 is cut axially from a slot 11a into which is introduced the flattened end of a nozzle 13, integral with an annular flange 13a and an axial extension 13b. The flange 13a cooperates with a retaining cap 14 screwed ~ on the open end, provided threaded, of the boss 7a, while the extension 13b is forced into the sheath 3 of the flexible B whose friend 4 is fixed to the nozzle 13 by crimping or welding.

L'espace intérieur du bossage latéral 7a et celui de la cuvette 7 communiquent à travers une ouverture 7b à travers laquelle est engage un doigt 15, vissé dans un taraudage radial de l'arbre 11. L'extrémité libre de ce doigt 15 forme appui pour ltextrémité inférieure libre de la queue 10b du clapet 10. The interior space of the lateral boss 7a and that of the bowl 7 communicate through an opening 7b through which is engaged a finger 15, screwed into a radial thread of the shaft 11. The free end of this finger 15 forms a support for the free lower end of the tail 10b of the valve 10.

Le fonctionnement et l'utilisation du dispositif de vidage ci-dessus décrit découlent des explications qui précèdent. Le clapet 10 étant supposé à la position haute d'ouverture illustrée en fig. 1, la manoeuvre angulaire du bouton 6 dans le sens approprie provoque, par rotation de l'amie 4 à l'intérieur de la gaine 3, le déplacement angulaire vers le bas du doigt 15 et l'abaissement du clapet 10 qui vient affecter la position basse de fermeture indiquée en tracé interrompu. Bien évidemment, la manoeuvre du bouton 6 en sens contraire assure l'élévation et l'ouverture du clapet. The operation and use of the emptying device described above follows from the foregoing explanations. The valve 10 being assumed to be in the high open position illustrated in FIG. 1, the angular operation of the button 6 in the appropriate direction causes, by rotation of the friend 4 inside the sheath 3, the angular displacement downwards of the finger 15 and the lowering of the valve 10 which affects the low closing position indicated in broken line. Obviously, the operation of the button 6 in the opposite direction ensures the elevation and the opening of the valve.

Les essais ont démontré que l'actionnement du dispositif impliquait de la part de l'usager un effort bien inférieur à celui qui doit ûtre appliqué pour la manoeuvre des dispositifs classiques dans lesquels la liaison operée par le flexible B s'effectue par translation longitudinale de l'amie de celui-ci. Tests have demonstrated that the actuation of the device involved on the part of the user an effort much lower than that which must be applied for the operation of conventional devices in which the connection operated by the flexible B is effected by longitudinal translation of friend of it.

I1 va de soi que l'invention est susceptible d'être appliquée à des appareils sanitaires autres que les éviers. It goes without saying that the invention can be applied to sanitary appliances other than sinks.

I1 doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précede n'a été donnée qu'a titre d'exemple et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution decrits par tous autres équivalents.  It should moreover be understood that the foregoing description has been given only by way of example and that it in no way limits the field of the invention from which one would not depart by replacing the execution details described by all other equivalents.
