Description

DISPOSITIF DE MAINTIEN D'UN ELEMENT DE TOITURE EN
POSITION ENTROUVERTE
La présente invention a trait aux structures de bâtiments destines à recouvrir, partiellement ou en totalité, une surface au sol telle celle délimitée par un bassin d'une piscine et concerne plus particulièrement une structure de toiture provisoire pour piscine constituée à partir d'une série d'éléments de toiture disposés côte à côte pour recouvrir longitudinalement le bassin.
DEVICE FOR HOLDING A ROOF ELEMENT IN
INTERLOCKED POSITION
The present invention relates to building structures intended to cover, partially or entirely, a ground surface such as that delimited by a pool of a swimming pool and more particularly relates to a temporary roof structure for swimming pool constituted from a series roof elements arranged side by side to cover the basin longitudinally.

D'une manière générale, l'invention a trait plus précisément à une structure d'éléments de toiture de piscine du type de ceux se composant chacun d'une couverture formée de panneaux en matériau translucide tel que du polycarbonate à double paroi et d'une armature rigide, légère et résistante pour supporter la couverture transparente, ladite armature étant formée d'arceaux disposés dans des plans transversaux et entretoisés par des traverses avec deux traverses extrmes latérales délimitant deux bordures à l'élément de toiture. Ces deux bordures latérales reposent sur les rebords longitudinaux du bassin définissant une surface d'appui auxdits éléments de toiture. In general, the invention relates more specifically to a structure of swimming pool roofing elements of the type each consisting of a cover formed by panels of translucent material such as double-walled polycarbonate and a rigid, light and resistant reinforcement for supporting the transparent cover, said reinforcement being formed from arches arranged in transverse planes and braced by crosspieces with two lateral end crosspieces delimiting two edges to the roofing element. These two lateral edges rest on the longitudinal edges of the basin defining a bearing surface for said roof elements.

Pour découvrir partiellement cette piscine et en profiter en plein air, notamment en demi-saison dès que le climat ou la température l'autorise, les éléments de toiture de cette couverture de piscine sont montés entrouvrables individuellement afin de moduler l'ouverture du bassin vers l'extérieur. A cet effet, l'une des bordures latérales de l'armature des éléments de toiture est montée articulée autour d'une patte de fixation ancrée dans le rebord du bassin dans un plan d'expansion angulaire transversal à ce dernier, et l'autre bordure est destinée à recevoir deux béquilles dont les ttes pénètrent dans chaque extrémité de la bordure et les pieds viennent prendre appui sur les rebords du bassin à des fins de calage desdites béquilles entre les rebords du bassin et ledit élément de toiture qui se trouve ainsi maintenu incliné par rapport au sol, dans la position entrouverte recherchée. To partially discover this pool and enjoy it outdoors, especially in mid-season as soon as the climate or temperature permits, the roof elements of this pool cover are mounted partially openable in order to adjust the opening of the pool towards outside. For this purpose, one of the lateral edges of the reinforcement of the roof elements is mounted articulated around a fixing lug anchored in the edge of the basin in an angular expansion plane transverse to the latter, and the other rim is intended to receive two crutches whose heads penetrate each end of the rim and the feet come to bear on the edges of the basin for the purpose of wedging said crutches between the rims of the basin and said roof element which is thus maintained inclined relative to the ground, in the desired half-open position.

Ce dispositif de maintien d'un élément de toiture en position entrouverte utilisant deux béquilles comme bras de levier pose de sérieux problèmes quant à son utilisation dès lors que les béquilles, coopérant avec les extrémités de la bordure de l'élément de toiture, exigent souvent pour leur manutention, l'intervention de deux personnes pour soulever ledit élément de toiture et éviter à celui-ci un fléchissement transversal qui se produirait si une des extrémités de la bordure n'était pas soutenue lors de l'opération de levage. Ces déformations répétées des éléments de toiture peuvent occasionner des conséquences dommageables et entraîner leur réparation, voire leur remplacement.This device for holding a roof element in the ajar position using two crutches as a lever arm poses serious problems with regard to its use since the crutches, cooperating with the ends of the edge of the roof element, often require for their handling, the intervention of two people to lift said roofing element and avoid it a transverse deflection which would occur if one of the ends of the edge was not supported during the lifting operation. These repeated deformations of the roof elements can cause damaging consequences and lead to their repair or even replacement.

Plus récemment, le demandeur avait imaginé un concept original de dispositif de maintien d'un élément de toiture adoptant deux bordures latérales parallèles reposant sur une surface d'appui, l'une des deux bordures étant montée articulée autour d'une patte de fixation ancrée dans la surface d'appui et l'autre bordure étant destinée à recevoir la tte d'au moins une béquille dont le pied vient prendre appui sur la surface d'appui pour assurer le calage de ladite béquille entre la surface d'appui et ledit élément de toiture, consiste monter la susdite béquille coulissante le long de la bordure de l'élément de toiture pour la déplacer d'une extrémité de la bordure vers le milieu de celle-ci lorsque la béquille est utilisée comme bras de levage et pour la ramener vers une extrémité lorsque la béquille est utilisée comme entretoise. Le fait dradopter un mouvement coulissant de la béquille le long de la bordure de l'élément de toiture permet d'utiliser celle ci différemment selon que sa position est centrale ou extrme le long de la bordure. Le fait de soulever l'élément de toiture à l'aide de la béquille comme bras de levier en exerçant notamment un effort ascendant appliqué au milieu de ladite bordure, élimine ainsi tout risque de dévers de l'armature tout en limitant l'intervention d'une seule personne pour assurer l'opération de levage de l'élément de toiture. Pour y parvenir, le demandeur avait prévu de préformer dans les deux bordures de l'élément de toiture une glissière ouverte dans laquelle coulissait un élément mâle d'un organe d'accouplement coopérant avec la tte de la béquille. Ce procédé d'utilisation du dispositif de maintien d'un élément de toiture de l'invention a l'avantage de ne faire intervenir qu'une seule personne. More recently, the applicant had imagined an original concept of a device for holding a roof element adopting two parallel lateral edges resting on a support surface, one of the two edges being mounted articulated around an anchored fixing lug. in the support surface and the other border being intended to receive the head of at least one crutch whose foot comes to bear on the support surface to ensure the wedging of said crutch between the support surface and said roofing element, consists of mounting the above-mentioned sliding strut along the edge of the roofing element to move it from one end of the edge towards the middle thereof when the strut is used as a lifting arm and for the bring back to one end when the stand is used as a spacer. Dradopting a sliding movement of the stand along the edge of the roofing element allows it to be used differently depending on whether its position is central or extreme along the edge. The fact of lifting the roofing element using the crutch as a lever arm by exerting in particular an upward force applied in the middle of said edge, thus eliminates any risk of canting of the reinforcement while limiting the intervention of '' one person to carry out the lifting operation of the roof element. To achieve this, the applicant had planned to preform in the two edges of the roof element an open slide in which a male element of a coupling member sliding cooperating with the head of the crutch. This method of using the device for holding a roof element of the invention has the advantage of involving only one person.

L'objet de la présente invention est de proposer une variante de réalisation de ce concept. selon laquelle la bordure de l'élément de toiture dans laquelle coulisse la tte de la susdite béquille est préformée d'un élément mâle sur laquelle évolue une glissière équipant la tte de la béquille. En effet, à l'usage, le demandeur a pu constater que les glissières des éléments de toiture présentaient des jeux trop importants ou des défaillances qui nécessitaient des réparations ou leur remplacement, entrainant des coûts d'immobilisation de l'élément de toiture complet voire son remplacement lorsque la bordure était trop détériorée. En disposant, la partie glissière sur la béquille, il suffit alors de n'assurer la réparation ou le remplacement que de la béquille. The object of the present invention is to propose an alternative embodiment of this concept. according to which the edge of the roof element in which slides the head of the aforesaid crutch is preformed with a male element on which a slide is fitted equipping the head of the crutch. In practice, the applicant was able to observe that the slides of the roofing elements presented excessively large gaps or failures which required repairs or their replacement, resulting in the immobilization costs of the complete roofing element or even replacing it when the border was too deteriorated. By arranging, the sliding part on the stand, then it suffices to ensure repair or replacement only of the stand.

Selon un mode de réalisation préférée de l'invention, le dispositif de maintien comprend un organe d'accouplement dont une extrémité est préformée de la glissière montée coulissante le long du susdit élément mâle, et dont l'autre extrémité est montée en liaison pivot avec la tte de la béquille. Ainsi, ce n'est plus la béquille qui supporte les réparations ou son remplacement mais seulement cet organe d'accouplement. Selon une autre caractéristique particulièrement avantageuse de l'invention, l'élément mâle de la bordure de l'élément de toiture sur laquelle coulisse la tte de la susdite béquille adopte en section une forme circulaire et l'organe d'accouplement est préformé selon une glissière section circulaire ouverte vers l'extérieur, d'une rainure longitudinale selon une largeur plus large que celle de l'épaisseur de la patte de fixation de l'élément mâle à la susdite bordure pour autoriser une liaison pivot dudit organe par rapport audit élément de toiture. Cet organe d'accouplement est, comme pour le premier mode de réalisation du concept de l'invention, constitué par une bielle montée : -d'une part, coulissante via sa glissière et sa rainure longitudinale le long de l'élément mâle de la bordure, -d'autre part, en liaison pivot avec la tte de la béquille, -et enfin, en liaison pivot avec l'élément mâle de la bordure.  According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the holding device comprises a coupling member, one end of which is preformed from the slide mounted sliding along the above male element, and the other end of which is mounted in pivot connection with the head of the crutch. Thus, it is no longer the stand which supports repairs or its replacement but only this coupling member. According to another particularly advantageous characteristic of the invention, the male element of the edge of the roofing element on which slides the head of the aforesaid crutch adopts in section a circular shape and the coupling member is preformed according to a slide circular section open towards the outside, of a longitudinal groove with a width wider than that of the thickness of the lug for fixing the male element to the aforesaid border to allow a pivot connection of said member with respect to said element of roof. This coupling member is, as for the first embodiment of the concept of the invention, constituted by a connecting rod mounted: -on the one hand, sliding via its slide and its longitudinal groove along the male element of the border, -on the other hand, in pivot connection with the head of the stand, -and finally, in pivot connection with the male element of the border.
