Description

SUPPORT MOBILS, NOTAMMENT POUR APPAREILS SANITAIRES.MOBILE SUPPORT, ESPECIALLY FOR SANITARY APPLIANCES.
La présente invention concerne les supports ou supports mobiles pour les cuvettes de W.C., les appareils sanitaires, ménagers, mobiliers, les plans de travail. Le support selon l'invention permet à volonté le réglage de la hauteur utile des appareils.The present invention relates to supports or mobile supports for WC bowls, sanitary, household, furniture, worktops. The support according to the invention allows the adjustment of the useful height of the devices at will.
Les cuvettes de W.C. sont habituellement construites et fixées pour que leur siège soit à une hauteur par rapport au sol de vingt cinq à trente centimètres pour les enfants et quarante centimètres pour les adultes. Ces cotes sont habituellement conseillées par tous les usages et normes.WC bowls are usually constructed and fixed so that their seat is at a height from the ground of twenty five to thirty centimeters for children and forty centimeters for adults. These ratings are usually recommended by all uses and standards.
A l'usage il s'avère que des impératifs médicaux et physiologiques, notamment la grandeur et la souplesse variable des utilisateurs, voudraient que ces cuvettes de W.C. existent avec des hauteurs adaptables ou variables. De même, il est souhaitable de pouvoir proposer aux handicapés un support mobile permettant de mettre à niveau divers appareils de la vie courante, par exemple des machines à coudre, des mobiliers divers tels que tables et chaises, des machines pour le travail, ou d'autres appareils sanitaires. On connaît déjà divers appareils sanitaires dont la hauteur est réglable pour permettre leur adaptation à des personnes de taille différente : ainsi, le brevet allemand 2 526 337 propose de monter un lavabo sur un piston hydraulique permettant de faire varier sa hauteur ; le brevet allemand 2839 242 propose un urinoire que l'utilisateur peut déplacer à la main pour en régler la hauteur et l'inclinaison. En ce qui concerne les cuvettes de W.C., on a parfois proposé, comme le décrit le brevet US 3 925833, des dispositifs pour faire varier la hauteur qui sépare le niveau du siège de W.C de la cuvette. Ceci n'est qu'un palliatif assez mal commode et instable, d'autant qu'il n'est pas intéressant d'augmenter la hauteur qui separe le niveau du siège de la cuvette du niveau de l'eau qui reste au fond de cette cuvette pour des raisons évidentes d'hygiène et de propreté.In use it turns out that medical and physiological imperatives, notably the size and the flexible flexibility of users, would like these WC bowls to exist with adaptable or variable heights. Similarly, it is desirable to be able to offer the disabled a mobile support allowing them to upgrade various everyday devices, for example sewing machines, various furniture such as tables and chairs, machines for work, or d other sanitary appliances. Various sanitary appliances are already known, the height of which is adjustable to allow them to be adapted to people of different sizes: thus, German patent 2,526,337 proposes to mount a sink on a hydraulic piston making it possible to vary its height; German patent 2839 242 proposes a urinal which the user can move by hand to adjust the height and the inclination. With regard to WC bowls, there have sometimes been proposed, as described in US Pat. No. 3,925,833, devices for varying the height which separates the level of the WC seat from the bowl. This is only a rather inconvenient and unstable palliative, especially since it is not interesting to increase the height which separates the level of the seat of the bowl from the level of the water which remains at the bottom of this bowl for obvious reasons of hygiene and cleanliness.
La présente invention a notamment pour objet de proposer un dispositif permettant d'obvier aux inconvénients des dispositifs connus en permettant le réglage en hauteur de divers appareils de la vie courante tels que des installations sanitaires, machines ou meu blés par l'utilisation d'un support mobile universel et adaptable à toute forme d'appareils.The object of the present invention is in particular to propose a device making it possible to obviate the drawbacks of known devices by allowing the height adjustment of various devices of everyday life such as sanitary installations, machines or furniture. Wheat by the use of a universal mobile support and adaptable to any form of device.
Un autre objet de l'invention est de proposer un tel support mobile dont l'adaptation à ces appareils différents soit parti- culièrement rapide et facile.Another object of the invention is to provide such a mobile support whose adaptation to these different devices is particularly quick and easy.
Un autre objet de l'invention est de proposer un tel support mobile qui soit facile à poser pour adaptation sur une installation préexistante, et qui puisse en outre être amovible et transportable . Un autre objet de l'invention est de proposer un supportmobile motorisé dont la commande soit particulièrement aisée pour en permettre l'utilisation par des personnes handicapées.Another object of the invention is to provide such a mobile support which is easy to install for adaptation to a pre-existing installation, and which can also be removable and transportable. Another object of the invention is to provide a motorized mobile support, the control of which is particularly easy to allow use by disabled people.
Un autre objet de l'invention est de proposer des installations sanitaires comportant un tel support mobile qui soit adapté à des personnes de morphologies différentes.Another object of the invention is to provide sanitary installations comprising such a mobile support which is suitable for people of different morphologies.
Pour atteindre ces objets ainsi que d'autres, la présente invention propose un support mobile comprenant un support fixe pouvant être solidarisé, par des moyens de fixation, à une paroi du local dans lequel doit être placé le dispositif, un support intermédiaire mobile pouvant coulisser verticalement en relation avec des moyens de guidage du support fixe et étant sollicité par un moyen d'actionnement tel qu'un vérin ; des moyens de commande assurent le fonctionnement du vérin ; des moyens d'accrochage, adaptables sur le support mobile, permettent de fixer les appareils, mobiliers ou machines au support inteimédiaire mobile.To achieve these and other objects, the present invention provides a mobile support comprising a fixed support which can be secured, by means of attachment, to a wall of the room in which the device is to be placed, a mobile intermediate support which can slide. vertically in relation to means for guiding the fixed support and being urged by an actuating means such as a jack; control means ensure the operation of the jack; hooking means, adaptable to the mobile support, make it possible to fix the appliances, furniture or machines to the mobile intermediate support.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens d'accrochage comprennent des boulons s' insérant dans des alésages prévus dans le support mobile selon un écartement correspondant à la disposition des boulons prévus sur les appareils initialement fixés contre le mur, le support fixe étant solidarisé à la parci du local par des boulons s'engageant dans des lumières prévues dans le support fixe et correspondant aux trous ménagés dans la paroi pour la fixation des mêmes appareils contre la paroi. On réalise ainsi un dispositif support mobile dont le fonctionnement est particulièrement sûr, dont l'adaptation est aisée sans nécessiter d'usinage ou d'outils spéciaux. En outre, un tel support mobile peut être posé facilement et déposé, de sorte qu'il soit amovible et qu'un même appareil puisse être utilisé pour des applications différentes.According to another characteristic of the invention, the attachment means comprise bolts inserting into bores provided in the movable support at a spacing corresponding to the arrangement of the bolts provided on the devices initially fixed against the wall, the fixed support being secured to the parcel of the room by bolts engaging in slots provided in the fixed support and corresponding to the holes made in the wall for fixing the same devices against the wall. This produces a mobile support device whose operation is particularly safe, whose adaptation is easy without requiring machining or special tools. In addition, such a mobile support can be easily placed and removed, so that it is removable and that the same device can be used for different applications.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens d'accrochage comprennent un organe adaptateur, par exemple une console, solidarisé au support mobile, et de configuration adaptée pour recevoir divers appareils, machines ou meubles. On réalise ainsi un support mobile permettant une adaptation rapide et peu onéreuse à des applications très diverses telles que des applications sanitaires, domestiques ou professionnelles. Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, et pour une adaptation aux cuvettes de W.C., le dispositif comprend en outre des moyens de raccordement d'écoulement de la cuvette permettant d'une part la mobilité verticale de la cuvette, et d'autre part la rapidité de pose et de dépose du support mobile. Pour cela on peut prévoir un soufflet coudé pour l'évacuation des eaux usées, raccordé à l'orifice de sortie de la cuvette et à la conduite des évacuations. On pourra cependant prévoir un premier soufflet vertical, connecté entre la conduite d'évacuation et un tuyau coudé rigide, et un second soufflet horizontal connecté entre l'orifice de sortie de la cuvette et le tuyau coudé, ce tuyau coudé étant solidarisé au support mobile par un collier. Le soufflet vertical peut s'allonger d'une longueur égale au débattement vertical désiré de la cuvette de W.C., tandis que le soufflet horizontal peut s'allonger d'une longueur au moins égale à la profondeur du support fixe et du support mobile disposés généralement derrière la cuvette de W.C. ; ainsi la cuvette peut être fixée soit au support mobile pour l'utilisation de ce support, soit directement sur la paroi du local lors de la dépose du support mobile sans nécessiter le débranchement des conduites d'évacuation.According to another characteristic of the invention, the attachment means comprise an adapter member, for example a console, secured to the movable support, and of configuration adapted to receive various devices, machines or furniture. A mobile support is thus produced allowing rapid and inexpensive adaptation to very diverse applications such as sanitary, domestic or professional applications. According to another characteristic of the invention, and for an adaptation to WC bowls, the device further comprises means for connecting the flow of the bowl allowing on the one hand the vertical mobility of the bowl, and on the other hand the speed of installation and removal of the mobile support. For this, it is possible to provide an elbow bellows for the evacuation of waste water, connected to the outlet orifice of the bowl and to the evacuation pipe. However, it is possible to provide a first vertical bellows, connected between the discharge pipe and a rigid bent pipe, and a second horizontal bellows connected between the outlet outlet of the bowl and the bent pipe, this bent pipe being secured to the movable support. by a necklace. The vertical bellows can extend by a length equal to the desired vertical clearance of the toilet bowl, while the horizontal bellows can extend by a length at least equal to the depth of the fixed support and the mobile support generally arranged behind the toilet bowl; thus the bowl can be fixed either to the mobile support for the use of this support, or directly on the wall of the room during the removal of the mobile support without requiring the disconnection of the evacuation pipes.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, permettant notamment une grande facilité de commande pour les personnes handicapées, les moyens de commande du vérin comportent une pluralité d'interrupteurs répartis sur une hauteur comprise entre un mètre et un mètre cinquante, et disposés à portée de l'utilisateur, ces interrupteurs pouvant être jumelés avec les commandes d'éclairage du local. Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, on prévoit des moyens pour adapter la forme et l'inclinaison de la cuvette à la morphologie de l'utilisateur : on prévoit notamment des glissières de support fixe, dans lesquelles s'engage le support mobile, dont la partie supérieure soit inclinée pour provoquer l'inclinaison progressive vers l'avant du support mobile et de la cuvette de W.C. lors de son déplacement vers la position haute. En outre, la cuvette peut comporter des échancrures latérales facilitant le passage des jambes de l'utilisateur dans une position proche de la position debout. On peut en outre équiper la cuvette d'abattants de formes géométriques et de dimensions différentes pour obtenir une surface utile réglagle et de forme adaptée à la morphologie des personnes.According to another characteristic of the invention, in particular allowing great ease of control for disabled people, the actuator control means comprise a plurality of switches distributed over a height of between one meter and one meter and fifty meters, and arranged within range of the user, these switches can be combined with the lighting controls in the room. According to another characteristic of the invention, means are provided for adapting the shape and the inclination of the bowl to the morphology of the user: in particular fixed support slides are provided, in which the mobile support engages, whose upper part is tilted to cause the progressive tilting of the mobile support and the toilet bowl towards the front when it is moved towards the high position. In addition, the bowl may include lateral notches facilitating the passage of the legs of the user in a position close to the standing position. It is also possible to equip the toilet seat with geometrical shapes and different dimensions in order to obtain an adjustable useful surface and of shape adapted to the morphology of the people.

Dans le cas d'une adaptation d'une cuvette de W.C., comme le représente la figure 1, l'organe adaptateur pourra être simplement constitué par les boulons 3. Dans le cas d'éléments plus complexes ou de formes différentes, on pourra, comme le représente la figure 4, utiliser un organe adaptateur en forme de plaque verticale solidaire du support mobile 9, ou, comme le représente la figure 5, une console également solidaire du support mobile 9.The fixed support 7 forms a casing, covering all of the mechanical members, and has a passage on the front to allow the. mechanical junction of the mobile support 9 with an adapter member 14 tooth the configuration is adapted to receive the object to be made mobile. In the case of an adaptation of a toilet bowl, as shown in FIG. 1, the adapter member may simply consist of the bolts 3. In the case of more complex elements or of different shapes, it will be possible, as shown in FIG. 4, use an adapter member in the form of a vertical plate secured to the mobile support 9, or, as shown in FIG. 5, a console also secured to the mobile support 9.
Pour permettre l'insertion et l'adaptation du support mobile selon la présente invention, les alésages prévus dans le support mobile 9 pour l'insertion des boulons 3 ont le même écartement que les trous 5 prévus initialement dans le mur. En outre, dans le cas d'une cuvette de W.C, comme le représente la figure 1, on interpose différents moyens pour permettre l'allongement et la déformation de la conduite d'évacuation débouchant sur l'orifice 6. Ainsi on utilise un premier soufflet vertical 15, connecté entre l'orifice 6 et un tuyau coudé 16, et un second soufflet horizontal 17 connecté entre l'orifice de sortie de la cuvette 1 et le tuyau coudé 16. Le tuyau coudé est solidarisé au support mobile 9 par un collier 18, assurant la bonne orientation du tuyau coudé quelle que soit la position verticale de la cuvette 1. le soufflet vertical 15 est déterminé pour pouvoir s'allonger d'une longueur égale au débattement vertical désiré de la cuvette 1 ; le soufflet horizontal 17 est prévu pour per mettre un allongement d'une longueur au moins égale à la profondeur du support fixe 7, de sorte que la cuvette peut être fixée soit au support selon la présente invention soit directement sur la paroi 4 du local sans nécessiter le débranchement des conduites d'évacuation. Les conduites d'arrivée d'eau amenant l'eau à la chasse 2 seront réalisées en tube souple.To allow the insertion and adaptation of the mobile support according to the present invention, the bores provided in the mobile support 9 for the insertion of the bolts 3 have the same spacing as the holes 5 initially provided in the wall. In addition, in the case of a toilet bowl, as shown in FIG. 1, different means are interposed to allow the elongation and the deformation of the evacuation pipe leading to the orifice 6. Thus a first vertical bellows 15, connected between the orifice 6 and a bent pipe 16, and a second horizontal bellows 17 connected between the outlet orifice of the bowl 1 and the bent pipe 16. The bent pipe is secured to the movable support 9 by a collar 18, ensuring the correct orientation of the bent pipe regardless of the vertical position of the bowl 1. the vertical bellows 15 is determined to be able to lengthen by a length equal to the desired vertical clearance of the bowl 1; the horizontal bellows 17 is provided for per put an extension of a length at least equal to the depth of the fixed support 7, so that the bowl can be fixed either to the support according to the present invention or directly on the wall 4 of the room without requiring the disconnection of the discharge pipes . The water supply lines bringing the water to flush 2 will be made of flexible tube.
La chasse d'eau 2 est mobile en même temps que la cuvette Dans le mode de réalisation représenté en figure 2, la conduite d'évacuation de la cuvette 1 comprend un seul soufflet 19 formant un angle droit. Le soufflet doit être prévu pour pouvoir subir un allongement horizontal et un allongement vertical suffisants pour permettre la pose et la dépose de l'appareil et sa mobilité verticale.The toilet flush 2 is movable at the same time as the bowl In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the discharge pipe from the bowl 1 comprises a single bellows 19 forming a right angle. The bellows must be provided to be able to undergo a horizontal extension and a vertical extension sufficient to allow the installation and removal of the device and its vertical mobility.
Sur la figure 3 on a représenté un mode de réalisation du dispositif permettant l'adaptation d'une cuvette de W.C. à fixation au sol. Dans ce cas, l'organe adaptateur 14 est en forme de console, la cuvette étant fixée sur la partie horizontale 20 de la console.In Figure 3 there is shown an embodiment of the device allowing the adaptation of a toilet bowl fixed to the floor. In this case, the adapter member 14 is in the form of a console, the bowl being fixed on the horizontal part 20 of the console.
L'utilisation du dispositif de la présente invention est particulièrement aisée, notamment en ce qui concerne la pose ou la dépose du dispositif : dans le cas d'un W.C., on peut prévoir une cale qui a la forme du dessous de la cuvette et que l'on pose au sol, la cuvette ayant la hauteur normalisée lorsqu'elle est posée sur cette cale. Pour effectuer un échange, par exemple la pose d'un dispositif mobile selon la présente invention dans une installation sanitaire murale, on enlève tout d'abord les boulons insérés dans les trous 5 du mur et fixant la cuvette 1 , on avance la cuvette suffisamment pour insérer le support mobile contre le mur, on fixe ce support par les boulons insérés dans les trous 5 et, après avoir amené à hauteur convenable le support mobile 9, on fixe la cuvette par les boulons 3. La cale peut alors être enlevée et le dispositif est opérationnel. Les opérations ne demandent que quelques minutes à une personne non qualifiée, une seule clef étant suffisante pour l'échange des boulons. Un tel dispositif permet de réaliser des installations sanitaires adaptées notamment aux personnes handicapées. Dans ce cas, il est intéressant de prévoir un dispositif permettant de sou lever la cuvette à une hauteur suffisante pour qu'un utilisateur puisselutiliser en position debout. Dans ce cas il faut modifier la forme de la cuvette, les abattants qui la recouvrent, les commandes du moteur 11, et la commande de chasse d'eau. Ainsi, la cuvette peut comporter, comme le représentent les figures 6 et 8, des échancrures latérales 60 et 61 facilitant le passage des jambes de l'utilisateur. De même, la chasse pouvant être utilisée par des personnes de tailles différentes, on pourra prévoir un abattant 62 de surface réglable : cette surface peut par exemple être modifiée en prévoyant deux abattants superposés 62 et 63 réalisant un orifice central de tailles différentes. De plus, on pourra prévoir une cuvette dont la partie siège soit non pas horizontale mais un peu inclinée en remontant à l'arrière ou, de préférence, un système ou entraînement permettant simultanément un entraînement vertical et une inclinaison de la cuvette avec départ de la cuvette horizontal en position basse et inclinaison proportionnelle à la hauteur de montée. Cela pourra être réalisé en utilisant des moyens de guidage du support mobile qui soient incurvésvers l'avant en position haute, de façon à verser légèrement la cuvette vers l'avant lorsqu'elle est en position haute. Pour leur adaptation à des personnes handicapées, les commandes de moteur 11 et éventuellement de lumière du local pourront comprendre une série d'interrupteurs répartis linéairement sur une hauteur comprise par exemple entre un mètre et un mètre cinquante et disposés à portée de l'utilisateur, de sorte que l'utilisateur peut atteindre les interrupteurs quelle que soit la position de la cuvette de W.C Ces commandes pourront d'ailleurs être à portée des genoux ou des coudes de l'utilisateur. En utilisant une chasse d'eau à commande électrique, comprenant par exemple une électrovanne pour commander la sortie d'eau de la chasse 2, on peut ramener toutes les commandes sur la partie latéraie de la cuvette de W.C, et les rendre accessibles quelle que soit la hauteur de cette cuvette. L' électrovanne pourra être remplacéepar une languette ou fourchette articulée solidaire du support mobile 9, et qui passe sous le bouton 30 de commande de chasse. Cette languette ou fourchette peut être sollicitée par un électroaimant ou un vérin fixé sur le support mobile 9.The use of the device of the present invention is particularly easy, in particular with regard to the installation or the removal of the device: in the case of a WC, a wedge can be provided which has the shape of the underside of the bowl and that it is placed on the ground, the bowl having the normalized height when it is placed on this wedge. To carry out an exchange, for example the installation of a mobile device according to the present invention in a wall-mounted sanitary installation, first remove the bolts inserted in the holes 5 of the wall and fixing the bowl 1, the bowl is advanced sufficiently to insert the mobile support against the wall, this support is fixed by the bolts inserted in the holes 5 and, after having brought the mobile support 9 to a suitable height, the bowl is fixed by the bolts 3. The shim can then be removed and the system is operational. The operations require only a few minutes to an unqualified person, a single key being sufficient for the exchange of bolts. Such a device makes it possible to produce sanitary installations adapted in particular to disabled people. In this case, it is advantageous to provide a device allowing sou raise the bowl to a sufficient height for a user to use it in a standing position. In this case it is necessary to modify the shape of the bowl, the flaps which cover it, the controls of the motor 11, and the flush control. Thus, the bowl may include, as shown in Figures 6 and 8, side notches 60 and 61 facilitating the passage of the legs of the user. Likewise, since the flush can be used by people of different sizes, it is possible to provide a flap 62 with an adjustable surface: this surface can for example be modified by providing two overlapping flaps 62 and 63 making a central orifice of different sizes. In addition, a bowl can be provided, the seat part of which is not horizontal but slightly inclined while going up at the back or, preferably, a system or drive allowing simultaneously a vertical drive and an inclination of the bowl with departure from the horizontal bowl in low position and inclination proportional to the rise height. This can be achieved by using means for guiding the mobile support which are curved towards the front in the high position, so as to slightly pour the bowl forward when it is in the high position. For their adaptation to disabled people, the engine controls 11 and possibly the room light may include a series of switches distributed linearly over a height of, for example, between one meter and one meter and fifty meters and placed within reach of the user, so that the user can reach the switches regardless of the position of the toilet bowl These controls may also be within reach of the user's knees or elbows. By using an electrically controlled flush, for example comprising a solenoid valve to control the outlet of flush 2, all the controls can be brought back to the side of the toilet bowl, and made accessible whatever or the height of this bowl. The solenoid valve may be replaced by a hinged tongue or fork integral with the movable support 9, and which passes under the flush control button 30. This tongue or fork can be acted on by an electromagnet or a jack fixed on the mobile support 9.
Des moyens supports tels que des accoudoirs peuvent être solidarisés au support mobile 9 pour être manoeuvres selon le même mouvement que la cuvette 1 ou que la console 14. On pourra ainsi entraîner en mouvement un lavabo, une glace, une prise lumière, l'éclairage de la glace, un tiroir pour accessoires de toilette.Support means such as armrests can be secured to the movable support 9 to be operated according to the same movement than the bowl 1 or the console 14. We can thus move in movement a sink, a mirror, a light outlet, the lighting of the mirror, a drawer for toilet accessories.
L'utilisation du support mobile selon la présente invention est particulièrement adaptée aux appareils sanitaires tels que les W.C., comme cela a été décrit précédemment. Dans ce cas en effet, la même cuvette de W.C. peut être utilisée comme W.C. ou comme urinoir, la hauteur de la cuvette pouvant être fixée par exemple à quarante centimètres du sol ou à soixante cinq centimètres à la seule volonté de l'usager. La même installation pourra être utilisée en W.C. surélevé pour handicapés. néanmoins, le support mobile de la présente invention peut être utilisé pour régler la position verticale de dispositifs différents des installations sanitaires, par exemple des machines, des meubles tels que tables ou chaises, notamment pour permettre leur utilisation par des personnes handicapées. Dans ce cas on pourra bien entendu préférer un organe adaptateur en forme de console 14.The use of the mobile support according to the present invention is particularly suitable for sanitary appliances such as W.C., as has been described previously. In this case, in fact, the same toilet bowl can be used as a toilet or as a urinal, the height of the toilet being able to be fixed for example at forty centimeters from the ground or at sixty five centimeters at the sole will of the user. The same installation can be used in a raised toilet for the disabled. nevertheless, the mobile support of the present invention can be used to adjust the vertical position of devices different from sanitary installations, for example machines, furniture such as tables or chairs, in particular to allow their use by disabled people. In this case, it is of course possible to prefer an adapter member in the form of a console 14.
La présente invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation qui ont été explicitement décrits, mais elle en inclut les diverses variantes et généralisations contenues dans le domaine des revendications ci-après. On pourra notamment, dans le cas d'un plan de travail solidaire du support mobile, rendre solidaire de ce même support mobile les supports d'accessoires qui peuvent être associés au plan de travail. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments which have been explicitly described, but it includes the various variants and generalizations thereof contained in the field of claims below. We can in particular, in the case of a work surface integral with the mobile support, make integral with this same mobile support the accessory supports which can be associated with the work surface.
