Abstract

The invention concerns a system for producing a curtain of water for flushing urinals. The flushing valve (5) is opened by the thermodynamic action produced by the body heat contained in urine. The valve is closed by the coldness of the water released by its action.

Description

DESCRIPTION DESCRIPTION
Procédé thermodynamique, pour rinçage automatique des urinoirsThermodynamic process, for automatic flushing of urinals
L'hygiène des urinoirs s'opire généralement par un rideau d'eau déclenché de la maniére suivante : a) rideau permanent avec grande consommation d'eau. b) rideau intermittent, par action mècanique. c) action diclenchèe par ℓ'usager, par bouton poussoir. d) action sophistiquèe, par usage de sensor èlectronique.- Cette deenière solution est èconomique d'usage, à condition qu'aucune convensation prolongèe ne s'engage dans Ie local d' ètablissement.- Le système à protèger consiste à ρroduire Ie rideau hygiènique, quelques secondes apès ℓ'usage et à ℓ'aide de cet usage, pendant un instant court et justement nècessaifie.- L'invention est exposèe ci-après, reprèsentant seulement un mode d'exècution. Le principe de fonctionnement est le suivant :The hygiene of urinals is generally operated by a curtain of water triggered in the following way: a) permanent curtain with high water consumption. b) intermittent curtain, by mechanical action. c) action triggered by the user, by push button. d) sophisticated action, by use of electronic sensor.- This last solution is economical to use, provided that no prolonged convection commits to the establishment premises.- The system to be protected consists in producing the hygienic curtain , a few seconds after use and with the aid of this use, for a short instant and precisely necessary. The invention is set out below, representing only one mode of execution. The operating principle is as follows:
Un bulbe thermostatique (1) rèagit à la chuleun animale contenue dans ℓ'urine qui s'amasse dans une cavitè (9) à dègagement Ient (2) .- Le Ievier (4) de ce bulbe (1) agit de manièfie antagoniste Sur un fiessofit (6) maintenant la vanne (5) en position fermèe.- La vanne (5) libèrèe dèclenche le nideau d' eau.- L'avalais on de ℓ' eau dans le contenant (9) du bulbe (7) prèalableme.nt dègagè pan son ècoulement Ient [2] amène le bulbe il) dans sa position de dèpant et ℓ' eau est coupèe.- Le dispositif peut s' intègrer aisèment dans la coneeption de ℓ'urinoir.- Il peut èquipen Ies urinoirs existants pan ℓ'adjonction à la base, d'un èlèment de liaison de faible volume.- L' ensemble, qui fonctionne actuellement au domicile de ℓ' inventeur est placè sous une crèpine et pèse 200 grammes. Il lonctionne sans dispositif spècial de règlage et avec une apprèciable règularitè.-A thermostatic bulb (1) reacts to the animal chuleun contained in the urine which collects in a cavity (9) with slow release (2) .- The lever (4) of this bulb (1) acts in antagonistic manner a fiessofit (6) holding the valve (5) in the closed position. - The released valve (5) triggers the water drain. - The swallow of water is in the container (9) of the bulb (7) previously. .nt cleared its flow slowly [2] brings the bulb il) in its position of deposit and the water is cut .- The device can be easily integrated in the design of the urinal.- It can be fitted to existing urinals pan ℓ'addition to the base, a connecting element of low volume.- The whole, which currently works at the home of the inventor is placed under a strainer and weighs 200 grams. It operates without a special adjustment device and with appreciable regularity.

Contrairement au système le plus ilaborè existant actuellement, Iequel s'avère particulièrement coûteux, et qui utilise un sensor à micro-ondes, ℓ'invention à protèger ne fonctionne que par ℓ'usage qui en est fait et son fonctionnement n'est nullement tributaire de l'attention humaine apportèe à une quelconque manipulation. Le brevet est demandè en raison même des principes de fonctionnement, c'est à dire de l'action sanitaire s'exerçant èconomiquement et automatiquement par l'action thermodynamique provoquèe par ℓ'usage habituel et normal
Figure imgf000003_0001
Unlike the most sophisticated system currently in existence, which is particularly costly, and which uses a microwave sensor, the invention to be protected only works by the use which is made of it and its operation is in no way dependent human attention to any manipulation. The patent is requested by reason of the operating principles, that is to say the sanitary action exercising economically and automatically by the thermodynamic action caused by usual and normal use.
