Description

Dispositif de collecte des eaux pluviales.Rainwater collection device.

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de collecte des eaux pluviales.The present invention relates to a device for collecting rainwater.

On sait qu'il est d1sage, dans les techniques connues, de récupérer les eaux pluviales au moyen d'un ou plusieurs récipients de formes diverses disosés-en sortie des descentes d'eaux. Ces récipients présentent plusieurs inconvénients, à savoir, leur faible capacité, et leur renversement quasi-systématique en cas de pluies importantes.It is known that in known techniques it is desirable to recover rainwater by means of one or more receptacles of various shapes arranged at the outlet of the downspouts. These containers have several drawbacks, namely, their low capacity, and their almost systematic overturning in the event of heavy rain.

L'invention a donc pour but de répondre à ces inconvénients en proposant un dispositif de collecte des eaux pluviales réalisable industriellement et permettant la récupération et le stockage d'une grande quantité d'eau.The invention therefore aims to address these drawbacks by proposing a device for collecting rainwater which can be produced industrially and which makes it possible to recover and store a large amount of water.

L'invention concerne à cet effet un dispositif de collecte des eaux pluviales caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une structure souterraine constituée d'une citerne surmontée d'une canalisation cylindrique dont l'axe vertical est perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal horizontal de la citerne, et une structure apparente constituée d'au moins deux modules demi-cylindriques s'encastrant l'un dans l'autre pour former un conduit, ladite structure apparente étant disposée coaxialement et au-dessus de la canalisation de la structure souterraine et présentant un diamètre légèrement supérieur à ladite canalisation de la structure souterraine.To this end, the invention relates to a device for collecting rainwater, characterized in that it comprises an underground structure consisting of a tank surmounted by a cylindrical pipe, the vertical axis of which is perpendicular to the horizontal longitudinal axis of the tank, and an apparent structure made up of at least two semi-cylindrical modules which fit into one another to form a conduit, said apparent structure being arranged coaxially and above the pipe of the underground structure and having a diameter slightly greater than said pipe of the underground structure.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la canalisation est reliée à au moins un puisard qui constitue la seule source d'alimentation en eau de la citerne.According to another characteristic of the invention, the pipe is connected to at least one sump which constitutes the only source of water supply for the tank.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront encore à la lecture de la description et des dessins joints, lesquels description et dessins sont bien entendu donnés surtout à titre d'indication.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the description and the accompanying drawings, which description and drawings are of course given above all by way of indication.

the apparent structure.

Conformément aux figures 1 et 2, le dispositif comporte une structure souterraine ou enterrée constituée d'une citerne 1 d'axe longitudinal horizontal, de forme cylindrique, carrée, ou rectangulaire, en polyester renforcé, en acier ou en béton de volume variable et d'une canalisation 2 cylindrique dont l'axe longitudinal disposé verticalement est perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal de la citerne. Cette canalisation 2 est reliée par l'orifice 3 à une conduite qui est elle-même reliée au dispositif de récupération des eaux, par exemple au puisard. L'orifice 3 constitue donc l'orifice d'alimentation en eau de la citerne. La canalisation 2 est munie d'un autre orifice 4 placé au-dessus de l'orifice 3, ledit orifice 4 constituant un dispositif de trop-plein.La canalisation 2 est fermee à son extrémité supérieure par un couvercle 5 qui, en période de non utilisation, permet de maintenir propre l'eau contenue dans la citerne 1. Ce couvercle 5 est muni d'un crochet central permettant de le soulever lorsqu'on desire accé der au contenu de la citerne.In accordance with Figures 1 and 2, the device comprises an underground or buried structure consisting of a tank 1 of horizontal longitudinal axis, of cylindrical, square or rectangular shape, of reinforced polyester, steel or concrete of variable volume and d 'a cylindrical pipe 2 whose longitudinal axis disposed vertically is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tank. This pipe 2 is connected by the orifice 3 to a pipe which is itself connected to the water recovery device, for example to the sump. The orifice 3 therefore constitutes the water supply orifice for the tank. Line 2 is provided with another orifice 4 placed above orifice 3, said orifice 4 constituting an overflow device. Line 2 is closed at its upper end by a cover 5 which, during periods of not in use, keeps the water contained in the tank 1 clean. This cover 5 is provided with a central hook enabling it to be lifted when it is desired to access the contents of the tank.

La partie apparente du dispositif de collecte représentée sur les figures 3 et 4 est constituée de modules préfabriqués (6, 7) de préférence en béton armé et par exemple agrémenté de pierres ou de briques en parement, lesdits modules de forme demi-cylindriques s'encastrant les uns dans les autres de manière à constituer un conduit et une margelle, lesdits éléments étant disposés coaxialement et au-dessus de la canalisation 2 et présentant un diamètre légèrement supérieur à ladite canalisation. Les modules reposent sur des poutres en béton 10, lesdites poutres étant disposées autour de la canalisation 2. Les modules peuvent être surmontés d'une ossature formant toiture de manière telle que la structure apparente se présente sous la forme d'un puits.The visible part of the collection device shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is made up of prefabricated modules (6, 7) preferably made of reinforced concrete and for example embellished with stones or facing bricks, said semi-cylindrical modules are embedding in each other so as to constitute a conduit and a coping, said elements being arranged coaxially and above the pipe 2 and having a diameter slightly greater than said pipe. The modules rest on concrete beams 10, said beams being arranged around the pipe 2. The modules can be surmounted by a framework forming a roof so that the apparent structure is in the form of a well.

Des moyens de récupération du contenu de la citerne sont disposés au voisinage de celle-ci. Ces moyens de récupération peuvent être manuels tels qu'un seau enroulé autour df un axe traversant de part en part les modules 6, 7 délimitant un conduit, ou automatiques tels qu'une pompe qui vient aspirer l'eau de la citerne. Means for recovering the contents of the tank are arranged in the vicinity of the latter. These recovery means can be manual such as a bucket wound around an axis passing right through the modules 6, 7 delimiting a conduit, or automatic such as a pump which draws water from the tank.
