Abstract

The invention concerns a device for preventing children from going into the pool in the absence of an adult and for avoiding accidents. The safety barrier for swimming pool, consisting of a net maintained by posts mounted on stabilising platforms, is characterised in that the platforms are mounted on rollers which run in a profiled section acting as guide. An electric carriage draws the first post for automatic opening and closing. A safety closure (for instance, an electromagnet) ensures that the device cannot be tampered with.

Description

BARRIERE DE PROTECTION POUR PISCINE La présente invention a pour objet une barrière de protection pour piscine. La protection des piscines est assurée par des barrières qui peuvent être fixes ou amovibles . Si elles sont fixes, elles peuvent être totalement fermées, il faut alors enjamber la barrière pour parvenir au bassin, ou disposer d'un portillon qui risque de rester ouvert. Elles ont aussi un coté disgracieux et embarrassant incontestable. Si elles sont amovibles, elles sont peu sécurisantes car elles peuvent être enlevées par de grands enfants. The present invention relates to a protective barrier for swimming pools. The protection of swimming pools is ensured by barriers which can be fixed or removable. If they are fixed, they can be completely closed, it is then necessary to step over the barrier to reach the pool, or to have a gate which risks remaining open. They also have an unsightly and embarrassing side that is unquestionable. If they are removable, they are not very secure because they can be removed by older children.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Il a pour but d'empêcher l'accès du bassin aux enfants hors de la présence d'un adulte.The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. Its purpose is to prevent access to the pool for children without the presence of an adult.
Il est constitué d'un filet (1) d'un maillage approprié maintenu par des piquets (2) qui circulent dans un profilé (3) par l'intermédiaire de leur base équipée de galets (4) et d'une plate-forme (5) de stabilisation.It consists of a net (1) of an appropriate mesh held by stakes (2) which circulate in a profile (3) via their base equipped with rollers (4) and a platform (5) stabilization.
Il se compose en première caractéristique d'un profilé qui sert de guide (3) posé à terre de façon à ce que sa partie supérieure affleure au niveau du sol. Il sera stabilisé par des « ailes » (6) sur les cotés et protégé par des joints brosses (7) inclinés légèrement vers l'extérieur pour éviter les salissures.It consists primarily of a profile which serves as a guide (3) placed on the ground so that its upper part is flush with the ground. It will be stabilized by "wings" (6) on the sides and protected by brush seals (7) inclined slightly outwards to avoid dirt.
Dans ce profilé circulent des galets (4) ou autres qui portent une plate forme (5) supportant elle même un piquet (2) pour accrocher le filet (1). La plate forme (5) fixée au-dessus des galets (4) circule au ras du profilé et sert de stabilisateur au piquet : sa surface empêche ce lui ci de s'incliner lorsqu'il est entraîné par un poids quelconque ou. par un choc (vent, vélo, etc..) et ce d'autant mieux que deux ou plusieurs billes (8) ( ou roulettes ou autre) encastrées sous la plate forme dans le sens de la largeur , stabilisent celle ci. Les bords des plates formes seront arrondis pour assurer la sécurité. Chaque plate forme tractée sera équipée d'un racleur ( brosse incurvée faisant chasse neige )In this profile circulate rollers (4) or others which carry a platform (5) itself supporting a stake (2) to hang the net (1). The platform (5) fixed above the rollers (4) runs flush with the profile and serves as a stabilizer for the stake: its surface prevents it from tilting when it is driven by any weight or. by a shock (wind, bicycle, etc.) and this is all the better since two or more balls (8) (or rollers or other) embedded under the platform in the direction of the width, stabilize the latter. The edges of the platforms will be rounded to ensure security. Each towed platform will be equipped with a scraper (curved brush making snowplow)
Une variante ( fig3 ) permet de placer la plate forme à l'intérieur du profilé. Elle circulera alors sur un guide (10) et grâce à deux ou plusieurs billes encastrées sur ses deux faces Dans tous les cas, le piquet (2) fixé au-dessus de la plate forme maintient le filetA variant (fig3) allows the platform to be placed inside the profile. It will then circulate on a guide (10) and thanks to two or more balls embedded on its two faces In all cases, the stake (2) fixed above the platform holds the net
(1) qui sera fixé dessus par tout moyen existant pour cet usage (11) ( rivets, colliers, boulons américains, ressort etc..) suivant les matériaux utilisés pour ces piquets. Le filet ne devra en aucun cas pouvoir glisser sur le piquet, ni vers le haut, ni vers le bas. Ce dispositif est entraîné par un chariot tracteur et pousseur composé d'un moteur électrique basse tension entraînant des roues , protégé par un carter fixé à un châssis. Ce chariot, en poussant et tractant le premier piquet entraînera l'ensemble du dispositif sur le profilé ,pour en permettre l'ouverture et la fermeture automatique. Il sera donc placé à l'arrière de la plate forme du premier piquet. Le chariot peut être remplacé par des treuils ou tout autre moyen de traction existant ou à venir ou par un rail électrifié.(1) which will be fixed above by any existing means for this use (11) (rivets, collars, American bolts, spring, etc.) depending on the materials used for these stakes. The net must in no case be able to slide on the stake, neither upwards nor downwards. This device is driven by a tractor and pusher carriage composed of a low-voltage electric motor driving the wheels, protected by a casing fixed to a frame. This carriage, by pushing and pulling the first stake will drive the entire device on the profile, to allow its automatic opening and closing. It will therefore be placed at the rear of the platform of the first stake. The trolley can be replaced by winches or any other existing or future means of traction or by an electrified rail.
La fermeture se fera, suivant la disposition des lieus, en rejoignant les deux parties de la barrière soit entre elles, soit sur une borne fixe pour rigidifier l'ensemble. Il faudra donc prévoir plusieurs chariots tracteurs, des courbes évasées et des galets pivotants pour favoriser la circulations des chariots. L'ouverture et la fermeture seront commandée par une télécommande vérouiUable couplée à un interrupteur accessible de l'intérieur de la zone protégée pour palier à toute panne et oubli de la télécommande. L'inviolabilité de la fermeture sera assurée par exemple par un électroaimant . Mais ce système peut être remplacé par tout autre système de verrouillage existant ou à venir, automatique ou manuel. L'alimentation électrique de toute l'installation sera assurée en basse tension.The closure will be done, according to the layout of the places, by joining the two parts of the barrier either between them, or on a fixed terminal to stiffen the whole. It will therefore be necessary to provide several towing carriages, flared curves and pivoting rollers to promote the circulation of the carriages. The opening and closing will be controlled by a lockable remote control coupled to a switch accessible from inside the protected area to make up for any failure and forgetting of the remote control. The inviolability of the closure will be ensured for example by an electromagnet. However, this system can be replaced by any other existing or future locking system, automatic or manual. The entire installation will be supplied with power at low voltage.
Un gyrophare ou autre selon la réglementation en vigueur préviendra l'utilisateur du démarrage de la manœuvre.A beacon or other according to the regulations in force will warn the user of the start of the maneuver.
Un programmateur bloqué sur mie heure à déterminer ( 4H semble une heure logique ) assurera la fermeture des barrières en cas d'oubli, de façon à mettre la piscine hors de portée d'un enfant dès le matin , et sans intervention humaine. Ce dispositif pourra être complété par tout système de surveillance existant ( laser, caméra, etc.. ) Un caisson dont l'emplacement en bout de rail sera choisi en fonction des lieus permet de cacher l'ensemble au repos. Celui ci sera intégré à la décoration de la piscine . Mais une simple borne suffisamment rigide pour assurer la tension du filet peut suffire.A programmer blocked at half an hour to be determined (4H seems a logical hour) will ensure the closing of the barriers in case of forgetting, so as to put the swimming pool out of the reach of a child in the morning, and without human intervention. This device can be supplemented by any existing surveillance system (laser, camera, etc.). A box, the location of which at the end of the rail will be chosen according to the location, makes it possible to hide the assembly at rest. This will be integrated into the decoration of the pool. But a simple terminal rigid enough to ensure the tension of the thread may suffice.
Une variante permet dans certains cas , avec un filet soutenu par une série d'arceau pris dans les piquets, de recouvrir la totalité de la piscine. FiletA variant allows in certain cases, with a net supported by a series of hoop taken in the stakes, to cover the entire pool. Net
