Abstract

A flexible waterproof sheet (4) is placed over the whole surface of the room and is firmly attached to the edges to collect any water leaking from above. The sheet has an opening (6) in a particular area (5) which allows the water to be drained. There is a plug (7) in the opening which is positioned above sanitary equipment such as a wash basin. The sheet is positioned so that the water runs down the slope to the drainage hole. The sheet is held in position by a shaped section (11) which is attached to the wall or ceiling which has a supporting lip (12) and a flexible section (13) in the edge of the sheet which forms a hook which fits over the lip of the fixed section. The sheet may be installed when the building is constructed and the edges fixed in the walls. The area around the opening is reinforced.

Description

L'invention se rapporte a un dispositif de protection d'une pièce d'habitation contre les infiltrations d'eau provenant de l'étage supérieur. The invention relates to a device for protecting a living room against water infiltration from the upper floor.

Dans les immeubles à plusieurs étages et plus particulièrement les hôtels, les dégâts des eaux sont nombreux et s'expliquent le plus souvent par la négligence ou la malveillance des locataires
Ces dégâts des eaux sont principalement localisés dans les pièces situées sous une salle de bain ou sous une cuisine.
In multi-storey buildings and more particularly hotels, water damage is numerous and is most often explained by the negligence or malice of the tenants
This water damage is mainly located in rooms located under a bathroom or under a kitchen.

L'eau qui déborde d'un évier ou d'un lavabo se répand sur le sol et, par exemple par le biais des gaines techniques, progresse vers les étages inférieurs. The water overflowing from a sink or sink spreads on the floor and, for example through technical ducts, progresses to the lower floors.

On ne sait, à ce jour, remédier à ces dégâts qu'en avertissant suffisamment tôt le concierge ou un service de surveillance de la présence d'eau et cela à l'aide de détecteurs. To date, we can only remedy this damage by notifying the concierge or a monitoring service of the presence of water at an early stage, using detectors.

Il est bien souvent trop tard et les dégâts chez l'occupant du local situé au dessous ne sont que plus importants. It is often too late and the damage to the occupant of the room below is only greater.

On peut certes tenter de placer des joints d'étanchéité au niveau des gaines ou des éventuels interstices au travers desquels pourrait s'infiltrer l'eau et contenir celle-ci dans la pièce où se produit l'incident mais, du fait de la facilité avec laquelle l'eau s'infiltre dans les plus faibles interstices, les chances de succès sont aleatoires.  We can certainly try to place seals at the sheaths or possible interstices through which water could infiltrate and contain it in the room where the incident occurs but, because of the ease with which water infiltrates into the smallest interstices, the chances of success are random.

Un des résultats que l'invention vise à obtenir est un dispositif de protection du type cité plus qui apporte une solution aux problèmes évoqués ci dessus. One of the results which the invention aims to obtain is a protection device of the type cited above which provides a solution to the problems mentioned above.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un tel dispositif de protection d'une pièce d'habitation contre les infiltrations d'eau provenant de l'étage supérieur caractérisé en ce que le dispositif comprend, en partie supérieure de la pièce d'habitation, une feuille imperméable élastiquement déformable s'étendant sur toute la surface de la pièce concernée et fermement ancrée en périphérie pour collecter l'eau provenant du dessus, cette feuille présentant au moins un orifice localisé en une zone prédéterminée permettant, au moins à un moment choisi, l'évacuation de l'eau collectée par la face supérieure de la feuille. To this end, the invention relates to such a device for protecting a living room against water infiltration from the upper floor, characterized in that the device comprises, in the upper part of the room. house, an elastically deformable waterproof sheet extending over the entire surface of the room concerned and firmly anchored at the periphery to collect water from above, this sheet having at least one orifice located in a predetermined area allowing, at least to a selected time, the evacuation of the water collected by the upper face of the sheet.

L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faites à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin ci-annexé qui représente schématiquement
- figure 1 : une pièce d'habitation vue en coupe,
- figure 2 : un détail de la figure 1.
The invention will be better understood with the aid of the description below made by way of nonlimiting example with regard to the attached drawing which schematically represents
- Figure 1: a living room seen in section,
- Figure 2: a detail of Figure 1.

En se reportant au dessin, on voit que la pièce 1 d'habitation située notamment dans un immeuble est, selon l'invention, pourvue d'un dispositif 2 de protection contre les infiltrations d'eau provenant de l'étage 3 supérieur. Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that the living room 1 located in particular in a building is, according to the invention, provided with a device 2 for protection against water infiltration from the upper floor 3.

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, ce dispositif comprend, en partie supérieure de la pièce d'habitation, une feuille 4 imperméable élastiquement déformable s'étendant sur toute la surface de la pièce concernée et fermement ancrée en périphérie pour collecter l'eau provenant du dessus, cette feuille présentant au moins un orifice 6 localisé en une zone 5 prédéterminée permettant, au moins à un moment choisi, l'évacuation de l'eau collectée par la face supérieure de la feuille. According to a characteristic of the invention, this device comprises, in the upper part of the living room, an elastically deformable waterproof sheet 4 extending over the entire surface of the room concerned and firmly anchored at the periphery to collect water from from above, this sheet having at least one orifice 6 located in a predetermined area 5 allowing, at least at a chosen time, the evacuation of the water collected by the upper face of the sheet.

Avantageusement, l'orifice 6 est pourvu d'un bouchon 7 et cette orifice est localisé sensiblement en surplomb d'un équipement sanitaire, tel un bac 9 d'évier ou un receveur de douche ou encore d'une baignoire apte à recevoir cette eau collectée et à l'évacuer par le réseau d'évacuation. Advantageously, the orifice 6 is provided with a plug 7 and this orifice is located substantially overhanging a sanitary equipment, such as a sink pan 9 or a shower tray or even a bathtub capable of receiving this water. collected and evacuated by the evacuation network.

Un oeillet 15 permet notamment de renforcer la feuille autour de l'orifice et de fixer le bouchon. An eyelet 15 makes it possible in particular to reinforce the sheet around the orifice and to fix the stopper.

Jusqu'à son évacuation, l'eau qui s'écoule ainsi accidentellement est retenue par la feuille qui, sous le poids, se déforme légèrement pour former une poche. Until its evacuation, the water which thus accidentally flows is retained by the sheet which, under the weight, deforms slightly to form a pocket.

Si l'orifice ne se situe pas au point le plus bas, en déplaçant la poche, on peut conduire l'eau vers l'orifice et évacuer toute cette eau directement. If the orifice is not at the lowest point, by moving the bag, you can lead the water to the orifice and drain all this water directly.

Lorsque l'orifice n'est pas obturé, il est possible de prévoir une conduite reliant cet orifice et un réseau d'évacuation.  When the orifice is not blocked, it is possible to provide a pipe connecting this orifice and a drainage network.

La feuille 4 pourra être placée de manière à s'écarter de l'horizontale pour que la pente conduise l'eau recueillie vers l'orifice. The sheet 4 can be placed so as to deviate from the horizontal so that the slope leads the collected water towards the orifice.

La zone habitable de la pièce est ainsi préservée des dégâts des eaux. The living area of the room is thus preserved from water damage.

Le dispositif comprend des moyens 10 de fixation notamment amovible de feuille sur la périphérie de la pièce. The device comprises means 10 for fixing, in particular removable, sheet on the periphery of the part.

Ces moyens 10 de fixation comprennent
- d'une part, un profilé 11 fixé sur le mur ou le plafond de la pièce et portant une lèvre 12 d'appui et
- d'autre part, un profilé 13 souple présenté par le bord de la feuille 4, ce profilé souple formant un crochet coopérant avec la lèvre 12 d'appui du profilé fixe.
These fixing means 10 comprise
on the one hand, a profile 11 fixed to the wall or the ceiling of the room and carrying a support lip 12 and
- On the other hand, a flexible section 13 presented by the edge of the sheet 4, this flexible section forming a hook cooperating with the lip 12 for supporting the fixed section.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la feuille est posée lors de la construction de l'immeuble et les bords de la feuille sont noyés dans l'épaisseur du mur. In another embodiment, the sheet is laid during the construction of the building and the edges of the sheet are embedded in the thickness of the wall.

Cette feuille élastique est conforme aux normes de protection incendie. This elastic sheet complies with fire protection standards.

Sous réserve que la feuille soit maintenue à une distance suffisante du plafond et soit suffisamment tendue, elle confère à la pièce un bel aspect esthétique. Provided that the sheet is kept at a sufficient distance from the ceiling and is sufficiently stretched, it gives the room a beautiful aesthetic appearance.

On réalise ainsi une protection efficace des pièces d'habitation sans nuire à son aspect.  This provides effective protection of living rooms without affecting its appearance.
