Abstract

The system can be in the form of a goose nose, a sheath, a case, a ring or an object that are fixed on a faucet. The nose, sheath, case and ring are made of a material with thermo-reactive coloring, where the color of the material changes when the liquid is hot. The object is constituted of clips which support a thermometer. A probe can be placed in contact with the faucet in order to display temperature on a panel or visual units.

Description

DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION

La présente invention concerne un système de pré-visualisation de la température des fluides par celle des conduits et notamment des robinets.  The present invention relates to a system for pre-visualization of the temperature of the fluids by that of the pipes and in particular the valves.

Actuellement, lorsqu'on utilise de l'eau très chaude depuis un robinet, et lors de la réutilisation de ce dernier, même en ouvrant l'eau froide, le début du débit reste très Ç chaud. Ii arrive souvent de se brûler par inadvertance.  Currently, when very hot water is used from a faucet, and when it is reused, even when opening the cold water, the start of the flow remains very hot. It often happens that you burn yourself inadvertently.

ii est donc important de prévenir, d'une manière visuelle, la température, excessive notamment, du liquide avant son contact.  It is therefore important to visually prevent the excessive temperature, in particular, of the liquid prior to its contact.

La présente invention consiste à mettre en évidence la température de l'eau présente dans la canalisation finale du robinet en utilisant notamment la AG conductibilité de la température des conduits.  The present invention consists in highlighting the temperature of the water present in the final pipe of the valve, in particular using the AG conductivity of the duct temperature.

La présence de liquide communique au robinet, à tous ses organes et à la tuyauterie sa température. En effet, ii arrive même de se brûler sur le robinet lui-même quand le liquide circulant est très chaud.  The presence of liquid communicates to the tap, to all its organs and to the piping its temperature. Indeed, it even happens to burn on the tap itself when the circulating liquid is very hot.

La présente invention sera caractérisée par la cornmunication de cette température AS-prise sur le corps du robinet et le moyen de le visualiser par un thermomètre ou un mode visuel.  The present invention will be characterized by the communication of this AS-tap temperature on the valve body and the means of visualizing it by a thermometer or a visual mode.

Le thermomètre peut être de toute caractéristique technique de prise et d'affichage de température. Cependant, ii est à noter que certains modes sont plus aisés comme, par exemple, le thermomètre colorimétrique (ruban plastifié dont l'affichage 2 de la température est par le changement de couleur de certaines zones prédéfinies), ou l'application de certaines substances (peinture, ou autre) sensibles à la variation thermique qui entraîne un changement d'ordre visuel (couleur, en général).  The thermometer can be of any technical characteristic of taking and displaying temperature. However, it should be noted that some modes are easier, for example, the colorimetric thermometer (plasticized tape whose display 2 of the temperature is by the color change of certain predefined zones), or the application of certain substances. (painting, or other) sensitive to the thermal variation which causes a change of visual order (color, in general).

Un exemple de réalisation La présente invention est déclinée par le bec de cygne d'un mélangeur (robinet 2Ç mitigeur) constitué en tout ou partie de matière, substance, thermo-changeable de couleur.  An exemplary embodiment The present invention is declined by the swan spout of a mixer (tap 2Ç mixer) consisting wholly or partly of material, substance, heat-changeable color.

L'application uniquement sur toute ou partie de la surface de certaines pièces du robinet, de ce type de substance ou d'une sorte de peinture, de type thermochromique, a un résultat identique.  The application only on all or part of the surface of certain parts of the tap, this type of substance or a kind of painting, thermochromic type, has an identical result.

3 o Cette matière, substance, thermo colorimétrique peut être celle actuellement employée pour la conception d'un modèle de thermomètre dit digital , utilisant des cristaux liquides thermo-réactifs dont les graduations colorées indiquent la température.  This substance, a thermo-colorimetric substance, may be the one currently used for the design of a so-called digital thermometer model, using thermo-reactive liquid crystals whose colored graduations indicate the temperature.

La présente invention peut être réduite à d'autres parties du robinet comme, par exemple, utiliser uniquement la partie, souvent amovible et vissée de lia sortie du robinet: le brise-jet, mousseur, aérateur.le corps, ou l'aérateur.  The present invention can be reduced to other parts of the faucet such as, for example, using only the portion, often removable and screwed from the outlet of the faucet: the jet, aerator, aerator, body, or aerator.

Avec cette dernière possibilité, il est aisé de commercialiser un produit adaptable à Ç tout robinet, même ceux déjà installés.  With this latter possibility, it is easy to market a product adaptable to any faucet, even those already installed.

Cette façon est considérée comme intégrée.  This way is considered integrated.

D'autres manières de décliner la présente invention consiste en des systèmes externes comme par exemple, les suivants.  Other ways of declining the present invention are external systems such as, for example, the following.

Un autre exemple:Another example:

A o La présente invention est déclinée en une sorte de gaine, étui, constituée en tout ou partie de matière, substance, à coloration thermoréactive (changement de couleur selon la température). Cette gaine sera insérable autour d'une partie du robinet. Tout ou partie de cette gaine peut être en matière therrno rétractable ou élastique. Lorsque le liquide écoulé est chaud, la transmission de chaleur se fait au robinet et à 4 la présente invention qui change alors de couleur.  The present invention is declined in a kind of sheath, case, constituted in whole or part of material, substance, thermoreactive coloration (change of color according to the temperature). This sheath will be insertable around a portion of the faucet. All or part of this sheath may be of therrno retractable or elastic material. When the eluted liquid is hot, the heat transfer is at the tap and the present invention which then changes color.

Un autre exemple de réalisation: La présente invention est déclinée en une sorte d'anneau constitué en tout ou partie de matière, substance, thermo changeable. Cet anneau se fixe par exemple au niveau du vissage de l'aérateur, pris en sandwich grâce à une bague le rendant ?_v prisonnier.  Another embodiment: The present invention is declined in a kind of ring constituted in whole or part of material, substance, thermo changeable. This ring is fixed for example at the screwing of the aerator, sandwiched with a ring making it? _V prisoner.

Un autre exemple de réalisation: La présente invention est déclinée en un objet constitué d'une sorte de clips pouvant se fixer sur une partie du robinet et supportant un thermomètre, par exemple, électronique. Une sonde est en contact avec une partie du robinet et l'affichage de la La communication visuelle peut aussi être sous mode électronique, par un affichage, soit numérique, soit par un code de couleur, de la température. Un avertisseur lumineux, écrit ou sonore peut être ajouté.  Another embodiment: The present invention is declined in an object consisting of a kind of clips that can be fixed on a portion of the valve and supporting a thermometer, for example, electronic. A probe is in contact with part of the faucet and the display of the visual communication can also be in electronic mode, by a display, either digital or by a color code, of the temperature. A warning light, written or audible can be added.

3d La présente invention est particulièrement intéressante pour prévenir des accidents domestiques, et des éventuelles conséquences induites de toute sorte.  The present invention is particularly interesting for preventing domestic accidents, and possible consequences of any kind.

La présente invention est destinée aux robinets de toute sorte.  The present invention is intended for faucets of any kind.

i) température se fait sur un panneau, par une valeur, soit par un code couleur, ou tout autre moyen de communication (sonore, visuel, etc.)  i) temperature is done on a panel, by a value, either by a color code, or any other means of communication (sound, visual, etc.)
