Abstract

Improvements to installations for covering swimming pools, of the type comprising at one end of the basin of the pool a well in which there extends a horizontal shaft joined via element pairs to drive means, and on which there can be wound or unwound a covering intended to stretch across the surface of the water in the basin and passing through a slot provided between the well and the basin, the said covering 7 consisting of hollow plates 10 of plastic material articulated on the ends of each other, characterised in that the plates comprise bristles 23 at their free ends.

Description

La présente invention vise des installations de couverture de piscines. The present invention relates to swimming pool cover installations.

L'invention se rapporte à des installations comprenant un puits disposé à l'une des extrémités du bassin d'une piscine et dans lequel est logé un arbre horizontal supportant un tapis destiné à recouvrir la piscine. The invention relates to installations comprising a well disposed at one end of the pool of a swimming pool and in which is housed a horizontal shaft supporting a mat intended to cover the swimming pool.

Le tapis passe à travers une fente adjacente au puits et est généralement constituée de plaques de matières plastiques creuses articulées les unes aux extrémités des autres. Ainsi on recouvre l'eau de la piscine, le tapis flottant sur ladite eau. Un tel tapis présente de nombreux avantages, il évite que les feuilles des arbres tombent dans l'eau, évite une déperdition de la chaleur de ladite eau et par des journées ensoleillées, par effet de serre, il permet le chauffage de l'eau. The carpet passes through a slot adjacent to the well and is generally made up of hollow plastic plates articulated at the ends of each other. Thus we cover the pool water, the carpet floating on said water. Such a carpet has many advantages, it prevents the leaves of the trees from falling into the water, avoids a loss of the heat of said water and on sunny days, by greenhouse effect, it allows the water to be heated.

Un des inconvénients d'un tel tapis est que pour permettre de le dérouler et de l'enrouler, on doit prévoir entre ses bords longitudinaux et les bords de la piscine un certain jeu, de sorte qu'il n'isole pas complètement l'eau de la piscine. One of the drawbacks of such a mat is that to allow it to be unrolled and rolled up, a certain clearance must be provided between its longitudinal edges and the edges of the pool, so that it does not completely isolate the pool water.

L'un des buts de la présente invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient. One of the aims of the present invention is to remedy this drawback.

Les perfectionnements, selon l'invention, visent des installations de couverture de piscines du type comprenant à une extrémité du bassin de la piscine un puits dans lequel s'étend un arbre horizontal relié par une liaison cinématique à des moyens d'entraînement et sur lequel peut s'enrouler ou se dérouler un tapis destiné à s'étendre à la surface de l'eau du bassin et traversant une fente prévue entre le puits et le bassin, ledit tapis étant formé de plaques de matière plastique creuses articulées les unes aux extrémités des autres, et sont caractérisés en ce que les plaques comportent à leurs extrémités libres des poils.  The improvements according to the invention relate to swimming pool cover installations of the type comprising at one end of the swimming pool basin a well in which extends a horizontal shaft connected by a kinematic connection to drive means and on which may roll up or unroll a mat intended to extend over the surface of the water in the basin and passing through a slot provided between the well and the basin, said mat being formed from hollow plastic plates hinged together at the ends another, and are characterized in that the plates have bristles at their free ends.

Ainsi, grâce à cette disposition on réalise un tapis qui coopère avec les bords du bassin, évite le passage d'objets tels que des feuilles le long desdits bords, permet une meilleure isolation thermique et, en même temps, lors de la mise en place ou, lors de l'enroulage nettoie le bord du bassin au niveau de l'eau. Thus, thanks to this arrangement, a mat is produced which cooperates with the edges of the basin, avoids the passage of objects such as sheets along said edges, allows better thermal insulation and, at the same time, during installation. or, when winding, cleans the edge of the pool at the water level.

Suivant une forme de réalisation particulière, les poils sont portés par des bouchons comprenant des barrettes destinées à s'insérer et à être fixées dans des canaux des extrémités libres des plaques. According to a particular embodiment, the bristles are carried by plugs comprising bars intended to be inserted and to be fixed in channels of the free ends of the plates.

Enfin, suivant une variante de réalisation, les poils sont portés par des éléments comprenant une pince destinée à enchasser les plaquettes des extrémités des plaques et à être fixée sur cèlles-ci.  Finally, according to an alternative embodiment, the bristles are carried by elements comprising a clamp intended to encase the plates from the ends of the plates and to be fixed on them.

L'invention. va maintenant être décrite avec plus de détails en se référant à des modes de réalisation particuliers donnés à titre d'exemple et représentés aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels
Figure 1 montre schématiquement en plan une piscine pourvue d'une installation de couverture, selon l'invention.
The invention. will now be described in more detail with reference to particular embodiments given by way of example and shown in the accompanying drawings, in which
Figure 1 shows schematically in plan a swimming pool provided with a cover installation, according to the invention.

Figure 2 montre en perspective éclatée, à plus grande échelle, des plaques du tapis. Figure 2 shows an exploded perspective view, on a larger scale, of the carpet plates.

Figure 3 montre en perspective éclatée une variante de réalisation de l'invention. Figure 3 shows in exploded perspective an alternative embodiment of the invention.

Figure 4 est une vue en coupe suivant la ligne
IV-IV de la figure 3.
Figure 4 is a sectional view along the line
IV-IV of figure 3.

A la figure 1, on a réprésenté le bassin 1 d'une piscine, celui-ci comportant à une extrémité un puits 2 dans lequel s'étend un arbre horizontal 3 relié par une liaison cinématique 4 à un moteur 5 disposé dans un compartiment 6, adjacent au puits 2. Sur l'arbre 3 peut s'enrouler et se dérouler un tapis 7 qui traverse une fente reliant le puits 2 au bassin 1 et situé au-dessus du niveau de l'eau dans ledit bassin 1. In FIG. 1, the basin 1 of a swimming pool has been represented, the latter comprising at one end a well 2 in which extends a horizontal shaft 3 connected by a kinematic link 4 to a motor 5 arranged in a compartment 6 , adjacent to the well 2. On the shaft 3 can be rolled up and unrolled a mat 7 which passes through a slot connecting the well 2 to the basin 1 and situated above the level of the water in said basin 1.

Le tapis 7 {voir figure 2) est constitué de plaques 10 de matière plastique comprenant trois canaux à section rectangulaire 11, 12 et 1-3, le bord libre du canal 13 étant solidaire d'une partie en forme d'arc de cercle 14, tandis que le bord libre du canal 11 comporte une partie en forme d'arc de cercle 15, ces deux parties -étant alternées de manière qu'on puisse à une extrémité d'une plaque 10 fixer d'une manière articulée une plaque identique 10a. The mat 7 (see Figure 2) consists of plastic plates 10 comprising three rectangular section channels 11, 12 and 1-3, the free edge of the channel 13 being integral with a part in the form of an arc of a circle 14 , while the free edge of the channel 11 has a part in the form of an arc of a circle 15, these two parts being alternating so that one can articulate an identical plate at one end of a plate 10 10a.

Les -canaux 11, 12 et 13 sont fermés à chaque extrémité par des bouchons 17 comprenant trois barrettes mâles 19, 20 et 21 destinées à s'insérer et à être collées dans les canaux 11, 12 et 13 respectivement. The channels 11, 12 and 13 are closed at each end by plugs 17 comprising three male bars 19, 20 and 21 intended to be inserted and to be glued into the channels 11, 12 and 13 respectively.

Les barrettes mâles 19, 20 et 21 sont solidaires d'une plaquette 22 qui constitue une butée et dans laquelle est noyée l'une des extrémités de poils 23.  The male bars 19, 20 and 21 are integral with a plate 22 which constitutes a stop and in which one of the ends of bristles 23 is embedded.

Ainsi, les poils 23 comblent l'espace ménagé entre les extrémités des plaques 10 et les bords correspondants du bassin 1 et permettent d'éviter que des objets tels que des feuilles d'arbres ou autres tombent dans ledit espace. De plus, ces poils en frottant contre le bord du bassin nettoient la paroi à la surface de l'eau. Thus, the bristles 23 fill the space formed between the ends of the plates 10 and the corresponding edges of the basin 1 and make it possible to prevent objects such as tree leaves or the like falling into said space. In addition, these hairs by rubbing against the edge of the basin clean the wall on the surface of the water.

Aux figures 3 et 4 on a représenté une variante de réalisation. Les dispositions prévues à la figure 2 sont destinées à de nouveaux équipements, le mode de réalisation des figures 3 et 4 est destiné à être utilisé pour des équipements anciens. In Figures 3 and 4 there is shown an alternative embodiment. The provisions in Figure 2 are for new equipment, the embodiment of Figures 3 and 4 is intended to be used for old equipment.

Les tapis des installations anciennes comprennent des plaques 25 de même type que les plaques 10, mais dont les extrémités des canaux sont fermées par des bouchons 26 terminés par des plaquettes 27. L'invention prévoit sur de telles plaques 25 de pouvoir monter des éléments 30 comprenant un corps 31 supportant des poils 32 et solidaire d'une pince 33 destinée à enchasser la plaquette 27 et à être fixée sur celle-ci par collage, par exemple. The mats of old installations include plates 25 of the same type as the plates 10, but the ends of the channels of which are closed by plugs 26 terminated by plates 27. The invention provides on such plates 25 to be able to mount elements 30 comprising a body 31 supporting bristles 32 and integral with a clamp 33 intended to enchasset the plate 27 and to be fixed thereto by gluing, for example.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation qui viennent d'être décrits et représentés. On pourra y apporter de nombreuses modifications de détail sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention.  Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments which have just been described and shown. Many modifications of detail can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
