Definitions
- the invention relates to a skimmer (surface suction), via which the water running off or drawn off from a swimming pool is discharged, a swimming weir being pivotally articulated in a housing.
- Skimmers have the task of feeding contaminated, near-surface water to a filter. Soiling can also include solid particles such as leaves, dust or similar floating parts.
- the water entering the skimmer housing via the skimmer weir is fed to a filter for water purification via a drain, in which a hair and fiber collecting basket may be arranged.
- pumps are often used as suction devices. Any overflows provided in the swimming pool and floor drains or their connections are usually connected via a common line, so that the entire pool control for suctioning the water surface or the floor can be controlled via a liquid flow controller, so that only one line leading to the liquid filter is required.
- Skimmers are built into the niches provided in the swimming pool wall at about the level of the water surface, or are placed on the pool edge in the case of retrofitting in concrete swimming pools or when replacing a non-identical skimmer.
- a concrete or attached skimmer is closed off from the inside of the pool by a frame-shaped cover, if necessary, to cover the edges of the plating.
- To swimming pools known in the prior art consist of steel, aluminum or a plastic, in particular polyester.
- the previously known swimming weirs have an upper straight edge, so that the drained or pumped water is always guided over this edge at the same speed.
- the skimmer according to claim 1 which according to the invention has a swimming weir, the upper edge of which has at least one indentation.
- a single indentation is preferably provided, which is arranged essentially in the center.
- a skimmer has a relatively small inlet in relation to the surface of a swimming pool to be cleaned. If water is drawn off from the surface via the skimmer by means of a pump, the swimming weir tilts vertically into an inclined position so that the entire upper edge of the swimming weir lies below the water surface.
- the indentation significantly increases the suction effect and thus the flow velocity of the water flowing off, so that the dirt particles located in the intake area of the skimmer opening, which are located on the water surface of the swimming pool, are effectively extracted.
- Contaminants such as leaves, insects, dust etc. can thus be put into the skimmer collection basket in the shortest possible time.
- the swimming weir swings back into the essentially vertical position, so that the entire upper edge, including the indentation, is above the water level. This prevents the dirt from the collecting basket from getting back into the swimming pool.
- the indentation provided is concave and / or has a constant radius, with which largely undesirable turbulence at the edge of the swimming-pool weir can be avoided.
- the indentation preferably extends over approximately 35 to 45%, in particular 40%, of the overall width of the swimming weir.
- the height of the indentation, measured at its lowest point, is 20 to 30 mm.
- the necessary buoyancy during the pendulum movement of the swimming weir is ensured, for example, by attaching a closed-cell foam.
- An improved buoyancy is achieved, however, in that the swimming weir consists of a floatable body, the specific weight of which is significantly lighter than water.
- a better floatability is preferably achieved in that the swimming weir has cavities which are preferably arranged in the region of the upper edge and / or in the upper region of the side edges.
- the swimming weir consists preferably of a plastic body which has been produced by means of a plastic blowing process with corresponding cavities.
- the film hinge is preferably connected to a suction device (pump) such that the swimming weir is guided into the vertical position after the suction device has been switched off and is locked in this position. In a corresponding manner, the film hinge is unlocked when the suction pump is switched on.
- a suction device pump
- the configuration has the further advantage that the attachment of a film hinge is less expensive to manufacture, since this hinge is then an integral part of the preferably plastic weir is made.
- FIG. 1 is a plan view of an inventive
- Fig. 2 is a sectional view of this swimming weir in an installed state
- Fig. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the swimming weir with associated components.
- the skimmer shown in Fig. 1 to 3 consists of a housing 10, with a skimmer neck 11 and a pivotably arranged skimmer weir 12 and a hair or fiber basket 13 suspended in front of a water outlet 27.
- the skimmer neck 11 projects beyond the inner wall surface 14 of the pool and has one Paragraph 15 with holes 16, in which metal sleeves 17 are embedded with an internal thread, which are used to fasten screws 18.
- the skimmer neck 11 is covered all around by a flange 19 which also serves as an aperture and which itself has bores 20 through which the screws 18 can be inserted.
- the swimming pool wall 21 which can consist of steel, aluminum, polyester or even wood with an inner lining.
- the radial seal is provided by two seals 22, 23, which are arranged between the flange 19 and the swimming pool wall 21 on the one hand and between the swimming pool wall 21 and the shoulder 15 of the skimmer neck 11.
- the construction shown in the drawings makes it clear that the water flowing in along the inner surface of the skimmer neck shell 24 cannot pass through a seal and cutouts which would gradually rot or be susceptible to defects. That in the skimmer housing over that Water entering the weir 12 passes through the outflow funnel 25 and the hair or fiber basket 13 to the drain 27.
- the central opening of the flange 19 is so large that the narrow skimmer neck part 26 on the front can engage in the manner shown. This makes it possible to press the flange 19 onto the seal 22 with the appropriate pressure by means of the screws 18 or to exert a corresponding pressure on the seal 23 via the screw fastening.
- the swimming weir 12 has an upper edge 28 which has an indentation 29 which is arranged essentially in the center.
- the indentation 29 is concave and has a constant radius and in the present case has a width of approximately 40% of the entire width of the swimming weir 12 and a height of approximately 25 mm.
- the swimming weir 12 consists of a floatable body with closed cavities, which are preferably in the area of the upper edge 28 or in the upper area of the side edges.
- the swimming weir itself is connected to the skimmer housing via a film hinge 30.
- the skimmer housing is arranged with respect to the water surface 31 in such a way that the swimming weir assumes a position in the water suction in which the upper edge 28, in each case the indentation 29, lies below the water surface. Waves, wind or the pumping of water will make the water surface restless generated, wherein in the lifeguard position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, part of the water flows off over the straight lateral edge areas of the lifeguard 12.
- the indentation 29 creates an extended drainage area, which in this area increases the water flow into the skimmer, so that solids (leaves, dead insects, dust particles etc.) located on the water surface in the intake area of this skimmer are increasingly guided into the skimmer and over the basket 13 can be caught. If the pump is switched off, the swimming weir 12 rises due to the buoyancy into a vertical position in which it engages via the film hinge 30. This locking connection continues until the pump is switched on again, and the locking of the locking connection can take place electromechanically.
