Description

The invention relates to a swimming pool, equipped with an optimized hydraulic circuit.

Technical area

The field of the invention is the field of pools designed to contain water, type swimming pools, provided with a hydraulic circuit for the operation of said basin and for the treatment of water in said basin.

State of the art

Pool pools are typically equipped with a surface skimmer and a discharge port. The surface skimmer ("skimmer" in English) is disposed on one side of the basin while the discharge mouth, sometimes called discharge, is placed on the opposite side of the basin. The ducts connecting the surface skimmer to the discharge port are usually buried all around the basin.

These pools do not guarantee optimal skimming of the water surface. In addition, the long lengths of buried pipes increase the risk of leakage, loss of loads and the cost of manufacturing and installation.

An object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages.

An object of this invention is to provide a pool in which skimming surface is improved.

Another object of this invention is to provide a less expensive pool and easier to manufacture and install.

Yet another object of the invention is to provide a pool with less risk of leakage.

It is also another object of the invention to provide a basin which minimizes pressure losses.

Presentation of the invention

At least one of the aforementioned objectives is achieved by a basin designed to accommodate water comprising: - at least one surface skimmer, and - at least one discharge mouth; characterized in that at least one surface skimmer and at least one discharge mouth are arranged on the same side of the basin, said main side.

A more efficient skimming is thus ensured by the basin according to the invention. The skimmer is placed at the air / water interface of the pond while the discharge mouth is located in the lower part of the basin. The dynamics of fluids in the basin, thus produced, consists in the movement of the body of water from the discharge mouth, placed on the lower part of the basin, towards the opposite side, wall or face of the basin; and by reflection goes up towards the surface towards the surface skimmer. Surface pollution is thus driven by minimizing dead zones in the basin. The surface skimmer and the discharge mouth being placed on the same face of the basin, the necessary ducts are of reduced dimensions. The cost of production and installation is reduced, and manufacturing methods are facilitated. In addition, the risks of leakage are minimized.

In an advantageous version of the basin according to the invention, all the surface skimmers and all the discharge mouths can be arranged on the same side of the basin, that is to say on the same face or wall.

The mass of displaced water is greater in this case, skimming accordingly is more important. Skimmers and backs are placed on the same wall. The realization of the basin is thus facilitated and its cost is reduced. In addition, in this version, the necessary ducts are of limited size, the risks of leakage and loss of load are reduced.

In addition, the basin according to the invention may comprise at least one brush plug.

Taking brooms helps to clean the pond water on an ad hoc basis.

Advantageously, the brush plug can be placed on the main wall of the basin.

This arrangement further reduces the dimensions of the conduits used, it therefore limits the pressure losses, the risk of leakage and the cost of production.

According to a particular embodiment, the basin may comprise at least one bottom drain.

Such a bottom drain is located at the bottom of the basin, preferably near the main wall of the basin.

In an embodiment, the basin may comprise a hydraulic circuit arranged in a technical room arranged at the main side of the basin.

This solution limits the dimensions of the necessary ducts. The cost of production, the pressure drop and the risk of leakage are therefore reduced. In addition, the installation and construction of the pool are facilitated.

According to another embodiment, the hydraulic circuit may comprise at least one pump connected to at least one surface skimmer by a conduit.

Such a pump makes it possible to circulate the water in the basin and thus contributes to the cleaning of the basin.

In addition, the hydraulic circuit may further comprise at least one filtering device.

Such a filtering device can be arranged in the technical room provided for the hydraulic circuit.

The filtering device can be connected to the delivery port and the pond pump, so that it filters the water entering the surface skimmer, returned by the pump, and then directs it to the discharge port. .

The filtering device allows a more efficient cleaning of the pond water.

Advantageously, the technical room containing the hydraulic circuit can be accessed by a hatch or a side door according to the terrain configuration.

According to an exemplary embodiment, the technical room can be partially or totally buried.

In the case of impossibility of building a room, the hydraulic circuit can be arranged in a single trench near the basin, in particular on the main side of the basin.

This solution avoids buried pipes in length and reduces the dimensions of the pipes, thus facilitating the construction of the basin and reducing its cost. In addition, it allows easy access to equipment, in case of breakdown or renovation. In addition, the risks of leakage are reduced.

In an advantageous version, the basin according to the invention has a rectangular contour.

This arrangement makes it possible to place the surface skimmer and the discharge mouth on a single width or length of the basin.

In a particular embodiment, the pool may include at least one lighting means, such as a light spot, to illuminate the interior of the pool.

The lighting means can be arranged on the main wall, which facilitates its installation and maintenance.

Alternatively, the lighting means may be disposed on another side, or face, of the basin.
