Applications: omission of projecting parts in a bath, and the obtaining of a single colour.

Description

PROCEDE DE MONTAGE D'UN INJECTEUR DE BALNEOTHERAPIE
La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de montage d'un injecteur dans une baignoire de balnéothérapie ainsi que les baignoires utilisant ledit procédé.
METHOD FOR MOUNTING A BALNEOTHERAPY INJECTOR
The subject of the present invention is a method for mounting an injector in a balneotherapy bath and baths using said method.

On sait que la balnéothérapie consiste à créer, dans une nappe d'eau, des remous produisant des massages aux endroits voulus de la personne qui se trouve dans le bain. Ces remous sont créés par des injecteurs disposés en des endroits appropriés dans la paroi de la baignoire ou autre vasque, reliés à une source d'eau et/ou d'air sous pression. Cette introduction de fluide sous pression déplace ou agite l'eau de la baignoire.We know that balneotherapy consists in creating, in a layer of water, eddies producing massages in the desired places of the person who is in the bath. These eddies are created by injectors placed in appropriate places in the wall of the bathtub or other basin, connected to a source of water and / or pressurized air. This introduction of pressurized fluid displaces or agitates the water in the bathtub.

Actuellement, le procédé de montage d'un injecteur consiste à percer un trou dans la paroi de la baignoire et à introduire dans ce trou un passe-coque ou bague de fixation en matière plastique ou en métal qui d'une part assure l'étanchéité et, d'autre part, permet le montage du corps d'injecteur à l'aide d'un filetage, la partie avant du corps d'injecteur se vissant sur la bague de fixation. Après quoi, on enclipse sur la partie avant de l'injecteur un cache généralement chromé, blanc ou doré qui n'est pas de même couleur que la baignoire.Currently, the method of mounting an injector consists in drilling a hole in the wall of the bathtub and in introducing into this hole a through-hull or fixing ring made of plastic or metal which on the one hand ensures sealing and, on the other hand, allows the assembly of the injector body using a thread, the front part of the injector body screwing onto the fixing ring. After which, a generally chromed, white or golden cover is clipped onto the front part of the injector which is not the same color as the bathtub.

L'inconvénient de ce type de montage réside en ce que, il est nécessairement protubérant et visible. Il en résulte une gêne pour l'utilisateur et un effet esthétique contestable.The disadvantage of this type of mounting is that it is necessarily protruding and visible. This results in discomfort for the user and a questionable aesthetic effect.

Par ailleurs, l'axe des injecteurs étant perpendiculaire à la paroi qui est elle-même inclinée, il se produit une retention d'eau dans la chambre de l'injecteur.Furthermore, the axis of the injectors being perpendicular to the wall which is itself inclined, there is a retention of water in the injector chamber.

La présente invention a pour objet de pallier ces inconvénients et de permettre de noyer les injecteurs dans la paroi de la baignoire. The object of the present invention is to overcome these drawbacks and to allow the injectors to be embedded in the wall of the bathtub.

Selon la présente invention, le procédé de montage d'un injecteur dans une baignoire de balnéothérapie est caractérisé en ce qu'il consiste à mouler dans la coque de la baignoire une cavité creuse ouverte dont l'axe s'étend sensiblement perpendiculairement à la paroi et à coller l'anneau du corps d'injecteur contre la paroi externe de ladite cavité.According to the present invention, the method of mounting an injector in a balneotherapy bath is characterized in that it consists in molding in the shell of the bath an open hollow cavity whose axis extends substantially perpendicular to the wall and gluing the ring of the injector body against the external wall of said cavity.

Bien entendu, la présente invention trouve son application essentiellement dans les baignoires en matières plastiques moulables telles que du polyester. La cavité constitue en quelque sorte un logement de l'injecteur qui est ainsi intégré dans la paroi ce qui constitue un avantage notable particulièrement en ce qui concerne les injecteurs des parois latérales qui ne retiennent pas d'eau lors du vidage de la baignoire. L'ensemble est esthétique et d'une couleur unique.Of course, the present invention finds its application essentially in bathtubs made of moldable plastic materials such as polyester. The cavity constitutes in a way a housing for the injector which is thus integrated into the wall which constitutes a notable advantage particularly with regard to the injectors of the side walls which do not retain water during the emptying of the bathtub. The whole is aesthetic and of a unique color.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui va suivre d'un mode particulier de réalisation, donné uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en regard de la figure unique qui représente en coupe un injecteur monté sur la paroi d'une baignoire.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear during the description which follows of a particular embodiment, given solely by way of nonlimiting example, with reference to the single figure which shows in section a mounted injector. on the wall of a bathtub.

L'injecteur proprement dit est de type connu et comprend un corps d'injecteur 2 qui renferme les différents éléments et sert à la fixation de l'ensemble, une rotule d'injecteur 3 permettant l'orientation du jet de fluide sous pression et un diffuseur 4 percé d'un certain nombre d'orifices . Le corps d'injecteur 2 est fixé par sa collerette 5 sur la paroi externe 6 de la cavité 10. Tous les problèmes d'étanchéité sont ainsi résolus. Eventuellement, la paroi 6 est rectifiée si sa géométrie l'exige. The injector itself is of known type and comprises an injector body 2 which encloses the various elements and is used for fixing the assembly, an injector ball 3 allowing the orientation of the jet of pressurized fluid and a diffuser 4 pierced with a number of orifices. The injector body 2 is fixed by its flange 5 to the external wall 6 of the cavity 10. All the sealing problems are thus resolved. Optionally, the wall 6 is rectified if its geometry requires it.

Comme cela apparaît sur la figure, le diffuseur peut être déplacé soit par pivotement sur la rotule 3, soit en translation. On a représenté sur la figure1 en traits mixtes, le diffuseur en position fermée et en trait plein le diffuseur dans sa position d'extension maximale, le passage de l'une à l'autre se faisant par rotation du moletage (non référencé). On voit que même dans la position d'ouverture maximale, le diffuseur ne fait pas saillie à l'intérieur de la baignoire et reste dans la cavité 10.As shown in the figure, the diffuser can be moved either by pivoting on the ball 3, or in translation. There is shown in Figure 1 in broken lines, the diffuser in the closed position and in solid lines the diffuser in its position of maximum extension, the passage from one to the other being by rotation of the knurling (not referenced). We see that even in the maximum opening position, the diffuser does not protrude inside the bathtub and remains in the cavity 10.

La présente invention permet, par ailleurs de supprimer la bague de fixation traversant la baignoire et la suppression du cache.The present invention also makes it possible to remove the fixing ring passing through the bathtub and to remove the cover.

La présente invention vise également les baignoires utilisant des injecteurs montés selon le procédé.The present invention also relates to baths using injectors mounted according to the method.

Il va de soi que de nombreuses variantes peuvent être introduites, notamment par substitution de moyens techniquement équivalents sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. It goes without saying that many variants can be introduced, in particular by substitution of technically equivalent means without departing from the scope of the invention.
