Description

TOILETTES AVEC SIEGE ASSIS ET ABATTANT, A NETTOYAGE AUTOMATIQUE La présente invention a trait à des toilettes comprenant un siège assis et un abattant formant un ensemble combiné à commande entièrement automatique et agencé de manière à présenter toutes les garanties d'hygiène, de propreté et de sécurité. The present invention relates to toilets comprising a seated seat and a flap forming a combined assembly with fully automatic control and arranged so as to present all the guarantees of hygiene, cleanliness and security.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet des toilettes caractérisées en ce qu'elles comportent un siège assis comprenant une cuvette munie sur son bord intérieur supérieur d'un tube percé d'orifices de projection d'eau de nettoyage, un abattant mobile à l'aide d'un vérin entre deux positions, l'une de relevage et l'autre de rabattage au dessus dudit siège, un ensemble de nettoyage-séchage de l'abattant en position relevée et des moyens pour commander automatiquement un cycle de fonctionnement comprenant le déplacement de l'abattant et son séchage-nettoyage. To this end, the subject of the invention is a toilet characterized in that it comprises a seated seat comprising a bowl provided on its upper internal edge with a tube pierced with orifices for spraying cleaning water, a movable flap using a jack between two positions, one for lifting and the other for folding over said seat, a set of cleaning-drying of the flap in the raised position and means for automatically controlling a cycle of operation including movement of the flap and its drying-cleaning.

Suivant un mode de réalisation préféré du dispositif de l'invention, les toilettes sont disposées dans un local muni de buses de projection d'eau en direction du siège assis, l'abattant est, en position relevée, encastré dans un logement dans les parois duquel sont agencés, d'une part, une grille de soufflerie d'air chaud et, d'autre part, un réseau de buses de projection d'eau en direction dudit abattant relevé, les toilettes étant en outre munies d'une trappe auxiliaire mobile pour l'évacuation des eaux de nettoyage projetées sur le sol, un cycle d'ouverture-fermeture de ladite trappe auxiliaire étant déclenché au cours du cycle de nettoyage des toilettes. According to a preferred embodiment of the device of the invention, the toilets are arranged in a room provided with water spray nozzles in the direction of the seated seat, the flap is, in the raised position, embedded in a housing in the walls which are arranged, on the one hand, a grid of hot air blower and, on the other hand, a network of water projection nozzles in the direction of said raised flap, the toilets being furthermore provided with an auxiliary hatch mobile for the evacuation of cleaning water projected on the ground, an opening-closing cycle of said auxiliary hatch being triggered during the toilet cleaning cycle.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages ressortiront de la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation de toilettes selon l'invention, description donnée à titre d'exemple uniquement et en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels - Figure 1 est une vue schématique en élévation frontale de toilettes conformes à l'invention, l'abattant étant relevé ; - Figure 2 est une vue de dessus des toilettes de la figure 1 ; - Figure 3 est une vue de droite des toilettes de la figure 1 ; - Figure 4 est une vue correspondant à la figure 1, l'abattant étant en position rabattue ; - Figure 5 est une vue de dessus des toilettes de la figure 4, et - Figure 6 est une vue de droite des toilettes de la figure 4. Other characteristics and advantages will emerge from the following description of an embodiment of a toilet according to the invention, description given by way of example only and with reference to the appended drawings in which - Figure 1 is a schematic view in front elevation of toilets according to the invention, the flap being raised; - Figure 2 is a top view of the toilet of Figure 1; - Figure 3 is a right view of the toilet of Figure 1; - Figure 4 is a view corresponding to Figure 1, the flap being in the folded position; - Figure 5 is a top view of the toilet in Figure 4, and - Figure 6 is a right view of the toilet in Figure 4.

Sur les figures 1 à 6, on a représenté en 1 un siège assis muni d'une lunette rabattable dite abattant 2. In FIGS. 1 to 6, a seated seat is shown at 1 provided with a folding seat called a flap 2.

Le siège 1 est fixé sur un châssis 3, sur lequel sont également montés l'abattant 2 et son vérin hydraulique 4 de commande, l'abattant étant articulé sur un axe horizontal (figure 3). The seat 1 is fixed to a frame 3, on which the flap 2 and its hydraulic control cylinder 4 are also mounted, the flap being articulated on a horizontal axis (FIG. 3).

Le siège 1 comprend une cuvette munie sur son bord interne supérieur d'un tube 6 pourvu de buses de projection d'eau sur la paroi interne de la cuvette. Le tube 6 est relié par une canalisation 7 (figure 2) à une alimentation en eau sous pression (non représentée) constituée par l'eau de la ville par exemple, munie d'une électrovanne (non représentée). The seat 1 comprises a bowl provided on its upper internal edge with a tube 6 provided with water spray nozzles on the internal wall of the bowl. The tube 6 is connected by a pipe 7 (Figure 2) to a pressurized water supply (not shown) consisting of city water for example, provided with a solenoid valve (not shown).

En position relevée, l'abattant 2 est reçu dans un logement formé par un caisson métallique 8 lui-même intégré dans une façade métallique 9. In the raised position, the flap 2 is received in a housing formed by a metal box 8 itself integrated in a metal facade 9.

Dans la paroi horizontale supérieure du caisson 8, est disposée une grille 10 de soufflage d'air provenant d'une soufflerie 11 et chauffé par une résistance électrique 12. In the upper horizontal wall of the box 8, a grid 10 for blowing air from a blower 11 and heated by an electrical resistance 12 is arranged.

Dans la paroi verticale de fond 13 dudit caisson 8 est agencé un réseau 14 de buses de projection d'eau (figure 4) en direction de l'abattant 2 en position relevée, le réseau de buses épousant la forme générale de l'abattant. En dessous du siège 1, au niveau du sol du local est prévue une trappe auxiliaire 15 (figure 1) mobile, d'évacuation des eaux de nettoyage du local provenant des buses 14 ainsi que des buses de projection d'eau (non représentées) disposées autour du siège, dans les parois latérales du local et destinées au nettoyage de ce dernier. In the vertical bottom wall 13 of said box 8 is arranged a network 14 of water spray nozzles (FIG. 4) in the direction of the flap 2 in the raised position, the network of nozzles conforming to the general shape of the flap. Below the seat 1, at the floor level of the room is provided an movable auxiliary hatch 15 (FIG. 1), for evacuating the cleaning water of the room from the nozzles 14 as well as the water spray nozzles (not shown) arranged around the seat, in the side walls of the room and intended for cleaning the latter.

Le cycle de fonctionnement des toilettes est le suivant. The toilet operating cycle is as follows.

La commande du cycle est lancée par exemple dès que l'utilisateur est sorti du local, un détecteur de présence démarrant le cycle quelques instants après avoir constaté que le local n'est plus occupé. The cycle command is launched for example as soon as the user has left the room, a presence detector starting the cycle a few moments after having observed that the room is no longer occupied.

La première phase du cycle est le relevage de l'abattant 2 et l'ouverture de la trappe auxiliaire 15. The first phase of the cycle is the raising of the flap 2 and the opening of the auxiliary hatch 15.

La deuxième phase est le nettoyage de l'abattant 2 et de la cuvette du siège 1 par projection d'eau. The second phase is the cleaning of the flap 2 and the bowl of the seat 1 by spraying water.

La troisième phase est le séchage de l'abattant 2 par la soufflerie<B>11</B> . The third phase is the drying of the flap 2 by the <B> 11 </B> blower.

La quatrième phase est le nettoyage du sol du local par les buses des parois. The fourth phase is the cleaning of the floor of the room by the wall nozzles.

La cinquième et dernière phase est la fermeture de la trappe 15. L'abattant 2 nettoyé-séché peut soit rester en position relevée, auquel cas, dès l'entrée d'un utilisateur, il sera, grâce au détecteur de présence, abaissé sur le siège 1, soit être rabattu au cours de la dernière phase. The fifth and last phase is the closing of the hatch 15. The cleaned-dried flap 2 can either remain in the raised position, in which case, as soon as a user enters, it will, thanks to the presence detector, be lowered onto seat 1, or be folded down during the last phase.

Les moyens de commande et synchronisation des diverses phases de nettoyage des toilettes ne sont pas représentés sur les dessins et sont constitués par exemple par un automate conventionnel.The means for controlling and synchronizing the various stages of cleaning the toilets are not shown in the drawings and are constituted, for example, by a conventional automatic machine.
