MITIGEUR ENCASTRÉ RECESSED MIXER
Domaine Technique Technical area
[0001] Le présent exposé concerne un mitigeur encastré dans une cloison, et le procédé de montage associé. This disclosure relates to a built-in mixer in a partition, and the associated assembly process.
Technique antérieure Prior art
[0002] Le montage d’un mitigeur encastré dans une cloison entraîne une problématique liée à l’épaisseur du mitigeur, et plus généralement son encombrement. Les mitigeurs conventionnels présentent en effet une structure ayant une épaisseur supérieure à l’épaisseur conventionnelle d’une cloison de type plaque support de plâtre notamment en raison des éléments nécessaire à la fixation du mitigeur sur la paroi, et nécessite ainsi généralement le doublement de la cloison, ce qui est pénalisant à la fois en termes de coût et d’encombrement. Plus généralement, le montage d’un mitigeur encastré dans une cloison est une opération délicate pour un opérateur, et on recherche ainsi des moyens permettant de simplifier cette opération. [0002] The mounting of a built-in mixer in a partition gives rise to a problem linked to the thickness of the mixer, and more generally its bulk. Conventional mixers in fact have a structure having a thickness greater than the conventional thickness of a partition of the plaster support plate type, in particular because of the elements necessary for fixing the mixer to the wall, and thus generally requires the doubling of the wall. partition, which is penalizing both in terms of cost and size. More generally, mounting a built-in mixer in a partition is a delicate operation for an operator, and we are thus looking for ways to simplify this operation.
Exposé de l’invention Disclosure of the invention
[0003] Afin de répondre au moins partiellement à ces problématiques, le présent exposé concerne un procédé de montage d’un mitigeur dans une cloison, dans lequel : [0003] In order to at least partially respond to these issues, this presentation relates to a method for mounting a mixing valve in a partition, in which:
- on fournit une plaque support munie de trous de centrage, - a support plate is provided with centering holes,
- on réalise une ouverture dans la cloison, ladite ouverture étant définie en employant les trous de centrage, - An opening is made in the partition, said opening being defined by using the centering holes,
- on positionne un corps de mitigeur dans ladite ouverture, - a mixer body is positioned in said opening,
- on positionne la plaque support en appui contre la cloison, la plaque support présentant des orifices par lesquels fait saillie au moins un conduit du corps de mitigeur, - The support plate is positioned resting against the partition, the support plate having orifices through which at least one duct of the mixer body protrudes,
- on assemble le corps de mitigeur et la plaque support au moyen de bagues de fixation venant engager ledit au moins un conduit du corps de mitigeur, - the mixer body and the support plate are assembled by means of attachment engaging said at least one duct of the mixer body,
- on décale des plaques de fixation montées coulissantes par rapport à la plaque support, de manière à ce que la cloison soit positionnée entre la plaque support et chaque plaque de fixation, - Sliding mounted fixing plates are offset relative to the support plate, so that the partition is positioned between the support plate and each fixing plate,
- on bride lesdites plaques de fixation. - said fixing plates are clamped.
[0004] Selon un exemple, suite au bridage des plaques de fixation, on place une plaque de finition de manière à recouvrir la plaque support, et on fixe ladite plaque de finition au moyen d’une bague de finition. [0004] According to one example, following the clamping of the fixing plates, a finishing plate is placed so as to cover the support plate, and said finishing plate is fixed by means of a finishing ring.
[0005] En variante, préalablement au placement de la plaque de finition, on fixe une membrane étanche de manière à recouvrir au moins partiellement la plaque support et la cloison, afin d’assurer une étanchéité à l’air. [0005] As a variant, prior to the placement of the cover plate, a waterproof membrane is fixed so as to at least partially cover the support plate and the partition, in order to ensure airtightness.
[0006] Selon un exemple, lors de l’étape de réalisation d’une ouverture dans la cloison, on réalise successivement les étapes suivantes : [0006] According to one example, during the step of producing an opening in the partition, the following steps are successively carried out:
- on positionne la plaque support sur la cloison, - the support plate is positioned on the partition,
- on réalise des marquages sur la cloison, lesdits marquages étant positionnés au moyen des trous de centrage, - markings are made on the partition, said markings being positioned by means of the centering holes,
- on réalise des découpes circulaires dans la cloison, centrées sur chacun desdits marquages, - circular cutouts are made in the partition, centered on each of said markings,
- on délimite un contour d’ouverture, en définissant des contours de découpe, chaque contour de découpe étant un segment linéaire tangent à deux découpes circulaires, - an opening contour is delimited by defining cutting contours, each cutting contour being a linear segment tangent to two circular cuts,
- on découpe la cloison selon le contour de découpe. - The partition is cut according to the cutting contour.
[0007] Selon un exemple, l’ouverture formée dans la cloison présente une section similaire à la section de la plaque support, dont les dimensions sont réduites de 5 à 20%. [0007] According to one example, the opening formed in the partition has a section similar to the section of the support plate, the dimensions of which are reduced by 5 to 20%.
[0008] Selon un exemple, lesdites plaques de fixation sont montées coulissantes par rapport à la plaque support au moyen d’éléments de serrage montés dans des trous oblongs aménagés dans la plaque support, et sont décalées depuis une position repliée dans laquelle elles sont superposées à la plaque support vers une position déployée dans laquelle elles font partiellement saillie de la plaque support, de manière à ce que lors du bridage des éléments de serrage, la cloison soit enserrée entre chaque plaque de fixation et la plaque support. [0009] Le présent exposé concerne également un ensemble comprenant un corps de mitigeur et un système support pour le montage du corps de mitigeur dans une cloison, ledit système support comprenant : [0008] According to one example, said fixing plates are mounted to slide relative to the support plate by means of clamping elements mounted in oblong holes provided in the support plate, and are offset from a folded position in which they are superimposed to the support plate to a deployed position in which they partially protrude from the support plate, so that when clamping the clamping elements, the partition is clamped between each fixing plate and the support plate. This disclosure also relates to an assembly comprising a mixer body and a support system for mounting the mixer body in a partition, said support system comprising:
- une plaque support, présentant au moins un orifice, adapté pour permettre à un conduit du corps de mitigeur de traverser ladite plaque support, des trous de centrage, définissant des centres de découpe d’une cloison, - a support plate, having at least one orifice, adapted to allow a duct of the mixer body to pass through said support plate, centering holes, defining the cutting centers of a partition,
- une pluralité de plaques de fixation, montées coulissantes par rapport à la plaque support au moyen d’éléments de serrage montés dans des trous oblongs, lesdites plaques de fixation étant mobiles entre une position repliée dans laquelle elles sont superposées à la plaque support, et une position déployée dans laquelle elles font partiellement saillie de la plaque support. - a plurality of fixing plates, mounted to slide relative to the support plate by means of clamping elements mounted in oblong holes, said fixing plates being movable between a folded position in which they are superimposed on the support plate, and a deployed position in which they partially protrude from the support plate.

[0027] Le système support 300 telle que présenté comprend un corps formé par une plaque support 305 qui présente une forme générale rectangulaire avec les coins arrondis. La plaque support 305 est munie de un ou plusieurs orifices, dans l’exemple représenté deux orifices respectivement 310 et 320, dimensionnés de manière à permettre le passage de parties du corps de mitigeur au travers de la plaque support 305. Les orifices 310 et 320 sont typiquement circulaires, et positionnés sensiblement au milieu de la plaque support 305, par exemple centrés sur le milieu de la largeur de la plaque support 305, et de part et d’autre du milieu de la plaque support 305 selon la longueur de la plaque support 305. Les dimensions des orifices 310 et 320 sont adaptées aux dimensions du corps de mitigeur 200 associé. The support system 300 as presented comprises a body formed by a support plate 305 which has a generally rectangular shape with rounded corners. The support plate 305 is provided with one or more holes, in the example shown two orifices 310 and 320 respectively, dimensioned so as to allow the passage of parts of the mixer body through the support plate 305. The orifices 310 and 320 are typically circular, and positioned substantially in the middle of the support plate 305, for example centered on the middle of the width of the support plate 305, and on either side of the middle of the support plate 305 along the length of the support plate 305. The dimensions of the orifices 310 and 320 are adapted to dimensions of the associated mixer body 200.
[0028] La plaque support 305 présente également des trous de centrage 330, qui sont des ouvertures de dimension réduite formées dans la plaque support 305. Les trous de centrage sont typiquement dimensionnés de manière à permettre le passage d’un crayon, feutre, marqueur ou plus généralement d’un élément permettant de réaliser une marque sur une cloison contre laquelle est posée la plaque support 305. Les trous de centrage 330 ont typiquement une dimension maximale inférieure à 10 mm, ou typiquement inférieure à 5mm ou à 3 mm. Dans l’exemple illustré, la plaque support 305 présente 4 trous de centrage 330. Les trous de centrage 330 sont typiquement positionnés de manière à au moins partiellement encadrer les orifices 310 et 320 ; c’est-à-dire que les trous de centrage 330 sont positionnés de manière à ce que leurs centres respectifs définissent un rectangle, et que les centres des orifices 310 et 320 soient positionnés à l’intérieur de ce rectangle. The support plate 305 also has centering holes 330, which are openings of reduced size formed in the support plate 305. The centering holes are typically sized so as to allow the passage of a pencil, felt-tip pen, marker. or more generally of an element making it possible to produce a mark on a partition against which the support plate 305 is placed. The centering holes 330 typically have a maximum dimension of less than 10 mm, or typically less than 5 mm or 3 mm. In the example illustrated, the support plate 305 has 4 centering holes 330. The centering holes 330 are typically positioned so as to at least partially surround the orifices 310 and 320; That is, the centering holes 330 are positioned so that their respective centers define a rectangle, and the centers of the holes 310 and 320 are positioned within that rectangle.
[0029] La plaque support 305 présente également plusieurs ensembles de trous chaque ensemble de trous oblongs 340 comprenant typiquement deux trous oblongs tous deux perpendiculaires à un bord de la plaque support 305. Dans l’exemple illustré, la plaque support 305 comprend 4 ensembles de 2 trous oblongs 340, chaque ensemble de trous oblongs étant centré sur un côté de la plaque support 305, et aménagé à proximité d’un bord de la plaque support 305, typiquement à une distance comprise entre 3 et 10 mm d’un bord de la plaque support 305. Le système support 300 comprend plusieurs plaques de fixation 350, chaque plaque de fixation 350 étant montée coulissante par rapport à la plaque support 305 via des éléments de serrage 345 tels que des vis montés coulissants dans les trous oblongs 340. Les différentes plaques de fixation 350 sont ainsi mobiles entre une position repliée dans laquelle les plaques de fixation sont superposées à la plaque support 305, et une position déployée dans laquelle les plaques de fixation 350 font saillie de la plaque support 305. Les positions superposées à la plaque support 305 et faisant saillie de la plaque support 305 sont définies par rapport à une vue selon une direction perpendiculaire au plan de la plaque support 305. Les plaques de fixation 350 ont typiquement une forme rectangulaire, et les éléments de serrage 345 y sont typiquement reliés de manière excentrée. The support plate 305 also has several sets of holes each set of oblong holes 340 typically comprising two oblong holes both perpendicular to an edge of the support plate 305. In the example illustrated, the support plate 305 comprises 4 sets of 2 oblong holes 340, each set of oblong holes being centered on one side of the support plate 305, and arranged near an edge of the support plate 305, typically at a distance of between 3 and 10 mm from an edge of the support plate 305. The support system 300 comprises a plurality of fixing plates 350, each fixing plate 350 being slidably mounted relative to the support plate 305 via clamping elements 345 such as screws slidably mounted in the oblong holes 340. The different fixing plates 350 are thus movable between a folded position in which the fixing plates are superimposed on the support plate 305, and a deployed position in which the fixing plates 350 protrude from the support plate 305. The positions superimposed on the support plate 305 and protruding from the support plate 305 are defined relative to a view in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the support plate 305. The fixing plates 350 typically have a rectangular shape, and the clamping elements 345 are typically eccentrically connected thereto.
[0030] Les différents composants seront décrits plus en détail au fur et à mesure de la description des différentes étapes du procédé de montage décrit ci-après. The various components will be described in more detail as the description of the various steps of the assembly process described below proceeds.
[0031] On représente sur la figure 2 une première étape dans laquelle on fournit la plaque support 305 du système support, et on la positionne en appui contre la cloison 100. Au moyen des trous de centrage 330, on réalise des marquages sur la cloison pour définir des zones de découpe de la cloison 100. Les marquages sont réalisés au moyen d’un crayon, stylo, craie, pointe, ou tout autre élément adapté pour réaliser un repère visuel sur la cloison 100. Is shown in Figure 2 a first step in which the support plate 305 of the support system is provided, and it is positioned resting against the partition 100. By means of the centering holes 330, markings are made on the partition to define the cutout zones of the partition 100. The markings are made by means of a pencil, pen, chalk, point, or any other element suitable for making a visual mark on the partition 100.
[0032] Une fois les marquages réalisés, on retire la plaque support 305, et on réalise des perçages 130 dans la cloison 100, typiquement au moyen d’une scie-cloche, lesdits perçages étant positionnés au moyen des marquages réalisés précédemment. Dans le cas de l’utilisation d’une scie cloche, les perçages 130 sont typiquement centrés sur les marquages réalisés précédemment. La dimension des perçages 130 réalisés est calibrée en fonction des dimensions de la plaque support 305, et du positionnement des trous de centrage 330. A titre d’exemple, on peut utiliser une scie cloche de manière à réaliser des ouvertures circulaires ayant un diamètre de 67mm, les ouvertures circulaires étant par exemple tangentes deux à deux. La figure 3 représente schématiquement cette étape. Once the markings have been made, the support plate 305 is removed, and holes 130 are made in the partition 100, typically by means of a hole saw, said holes being positioned by means of the markings made previously. In the case of using a hole saw, the holes 130 are typically centered on the markings made previously. The dimension of the holes 130 produced is calibrated according to the dimensions of the support plate 305, and the positioning of the centering holes 330. By way of example, a hole saw can be used so as to produce circular openings having a diameter of 67mm, the circular openings being for example tangent two by two. FIG. 3 schematically represents this step.
[0033] On réalise ensuite une étape de découpe telle que schématisée sur la figure 4. Lors de cette étape, on délimite une zone de découpe dans la cloison 100, qui inclue les perçages 130 réalisés lors de l’étape précédente. Dans l’exemple illustré, on définit des contours de découpe 140 qui sont des segments linéaires tangents à deux perçages 130 circulaires réalisés lors de l’étape précédente.[0033] A cutting step is then carried out as shown diagrammatically in FIG. 4. During this step, a cutting zone is delimited in the partition 100, which includes the holes 130 made in the previous step. In the example illustrated, cutting contours 140 are defined which are linear segments tangent to two circular bores 130 made in the previous step.
Plus précisément, pour chaque perçage 130, on détermine les deux perçages les plus proches, et on définit deux contours de découpe 140, chaque contour de découpe 140 étant un segment tangent au perçage considéré et à l’un des perçages les plus proches dudit perçage 130 considéré, et étant positionné de manière à maximiser la zone de découpe. Chaque segment linaire est ainsi tangent à deux perçages 130 circulaires, les segments linaires et les perçages 130 circulaires délimitant une zone de découpe rectangulaire avec les coins arrondis. On découpe ensuite la cloison 100 selon la zone de découpe ainsi définie, de manière à former une ouverture 120 dans la cloison 100, ladite ouverture 120 ayant une surface strictement inférieure à la surface de la plaque support 305. L’ouverture 120 présente typiquement une section de forme similaire à la section de la plaque support 305, mais avec des dimensions réduites, par exemple inférieures de 5 à 20% aux dimensions de la plaque support 305, par exemple de 5, 10, 15 ou 20%. More precisely, for each hole 130, the two holes are determined. closer, and two cutting contours 140 are defined, each cutting contour 140 being a segment tangent to the hole considered and to one of the holes closest to said hole 130 considered, and being positioned so as to maximize the cutting area . Each linear segment is thus tangent to two circular bores 130, the linear segments and the circular bores 130 delimiting a rectangular cutting zone with rounded corners. The partition 100 is then cut along the cut-out zone thus defined, so as to form an opening 120 in the partition 100, said opening 120 having a surface strictly less than the surface of the support plate 305. The opening 120 typically has an opening. section similar in shape to the section of the support plate 305, but with reduced dimensions, for example 5 to 20% smaller than the dimensions of the support plate 305, for example 5, 10, 15 or 20%.
[0034] On positionne ensuite le corps de mitigeur 200 dans l’ouverture 120 ainsi formée dans la cloison 100, comme représenté sur la figure 5. On relie le corps de mitigeur 200 à des conduits d’eau, typiquement des arrivées d’eau chaude et d’eau froide, et typiquement à des sorties d’eau chaude et d’eau froide. Dans l’exemple illustré, le corps de mitigeur 200 présente deux conduits, respectivement 201 et 202 faisant saillie de la cloison 100. Selon la structure du corps de mitigeur, on insère alors différents composants dans lesdits conduits 201 et 202. Dans l’exemple illustré, on insère la cartouche thermostatique 210 dans le conduit 201 , puis on vient positionner l’écrou de cartouche 215 et le limiteur de température 217 autour de la cartouche thermostatique 210. On insère l’inverseur 220 dans le conduit 202, et on positionne l’écrou d’inverseur 225 autour de l’inverseur 220. En variante, la cartouche thermostatique 210, éventuellement le limiteur de température 217 et l’inverseur 220 sont assemblés au préalable dans le corps de mitigeur 200 respectivement au moyen de l’écrou de cartouche 215 et de l’écrou d’inverseur 220, ce qui permet de limiter les opérations d’assemblage à réaliser par l’opérateur, le corps de mitigeur 200 pouvant ainsi être fourni partiellement pré-assemblé. The mixer body 200 is then positioned in the opening 120 thus formed in the partition 100, as shown in FIG. 5. The mixer body 200 is connected to water pipes, typically water inlets hot and cold water, and typically to hot and cold water outlets. In the example illustrated, the mixer body 200 has two conduits, 201 and 202 respectively protruding from the partition 100. Depending on the structure of the mixer body, various components are then inserted into said conduits 201 and 202. In the example illustrated, the thermostatic cartridge 210 is inserted into the duct 201, then the cartridge nut 215 and the temperature limiter 217 are positioned around the thermostatic cartridge 210. The inverter 220 is inserted into the duct 202, and it is positioned the reverser nut 225 around the reverser 220. As a variant, the thermostatic cartridge 210, possibly the temperature limiter 217 and the reverser 220 are assembled beforehand in the mixing valve body 200 respectively by means of the nut cartridge 215 and the reverser nut 220, which makes it possible to limit the assembly operations to be carried out by the operator, the mixer body 200 thus being able to be supplied partially pre-assembled.
[0035] On repositionne ensuite le système support 300 en appui contre la cloison 100, de manière à ce que des conduits 201 et 202 du corps de mitigeur 200 et les différents composants montés dans ces conduits 201 et 202 passent au travers des orifices 310 et 320 respectivement de la plaque support 305. Le système support 300 comprend ici la plaque support 305 à laquelle ont été associées les plaques de fixation 350 au moyen d’éléments de serrage 345, les plaques de fixation 350 étant alors en position repliée. On engage ensuite respectivement un écrou bas 230 et un écrou haut 240 autour des conduits 201 et 202, typiquement autour de l’écrou de cartouche 215 et de l’écrou d’inverseur 225. Le système support 300, est ainsi solidarisé au corps de mitigeur 200. Ces étapes sont représentées successivement sur les figures 6 et 7. Then repositioning the support system 300 resting against the partition 100, so that the ducts 201 and 202 of the mixer body 200 and the various components mounted in these ducts 201 and 202 pass through through orifices 310 and 320 respectively of the support plate 305. The support system 300 here comprises the support plate 305 to which the fixing plates 350 have been associated by means of clamping elements 345, the fixing plates 350 then being in folded position. A low nut 230 and a high nut 240 are then respectively engaged around the conduits 201 and 202, typically around the cartridge nut 215 and the reverser nut 225. The support system 300 is thus secured to the body of the valve. mixing valve 200. These steps are represented successively in FIGS. 6 and 7.
[0036] On vient ensuite immobiliser le système support 300 par rapport à la cloison 100, comme représenté sur les figures 8 et 9, la figure 8 étant une vue depuis une face avant de la cloison 100, c’est-à-dire la face visible par un utilisateur lorsque l’installation est terminée, et la figure 9 étant une vue depuis une face arrière de la cloison 100, opposée à la face avant. Pour cela, on déplace les plaques de fixation 350 pour les amener en position déployée. Aux emplacements des plaques de fixation 350, la cloison 100 est ainsi située entre les plaques de fixation 350 et la plaque support 305 du système support 300. On bride ensuite les plaques de fixation 350, par exemple via les éléments de serrage 345, de manière à ce que la cloison 100 soit enserrée entre la plaque support 305 et les plaques de fixation 350. The support system 300 is then immobilized relative to the partition 100, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, Figure 8 being a view from a front face of the partition 100, that is to say the face visible by a user when the installation is complete, and FIG. 9 being a view from a rear face of the partition 100, opposite to the front face. For this, the fixing plates 350 are moved to bring them into the deployed position. At the locations of the fixing plates 350, the partition 100 is thus situated between the fixing plates 350 and the support plate 305 of the support system 300. The fixing plates 350 are then clamped, for example via the clamping elements 345, in such a manner. that the partition 100 is clamped between the support plate 305 and the fixing plates 350.
[0037] On colle ensuite une membrane, non représentée sur les figures, assurant l’étanchéité à l’air de l’ensemble sur la cloison 100, typiquement une membrane en caoutchouc collée sur la plaque support 305 de manière à recouvrir les différentes parties de la plaque support 305 et à déborder en partie sur la cloison 100, sans pour autant recouvrir ou obturer les conduits 201 et 202 du corps de mitigeur 200. Une telle membrane permet notamment d’assurer une étanchéité à l’air telle que définir selon la règlementation thermique RT2012. Then glue a membrane, not shown in the figures, ensuring the airtightness of the assembly on the partition 100, typically a rubber membrane bonded to the support plate 305 so as to cover the various parts of the support plate 305 and to partially overflow onto the partition 100, without however covering or blocking the ducts 201 and 202 of the mixer body 200. Such a membrane makes it possible in particular to ensure airtightness as defined according to RT2012 thermal regulations.
[0038] On place ensuite une plaque de finition 400 qui vient recouvrir le système support 300, la plaque de finition 400 présentant des ouvertures permettant le passage des portions du corps de mitigeur 200 et des éléments qui y sont associés au travers de la plaque de finition 400. On vient ensuite fixer la plaque de finition 400 au moyen d’un centreur bas 250 et d’un centreur haut 260 qui sont typiquement des écrous venant engager l’écrou de cartouche 215 et de l’écrou d’inverseur 225 respectivement, comme visible sur la figure 10. [0039] On monte ensuite un bouton thermostatique 270 et un bouton inverseur 280 respectivement dans le centreur bas 250 et dans le centreur haut 260, comme représenté également sur la figure 10, typiquement au moyen de vis, respectivement 272 et 282 dont la tête est ensuite recouverte d’un cache, respectivement 274 et 284. L’assemblage final est représenté sur la figure 11. On peut ensuite associer le système ainsi installé dans la cloison à des composants additionnels bien connu de l’Homme du métier, qui ne seront pas détaillés plus en détail ici. A finishing plate 400 is then placed which covers the support system 300, the finishing plate 400 having openings allowing the passage of the portions of the mixer body 200 and the elements associated therewith through the plate. finish 400. The finishing plate 400 is then fixed by means of a low centralizer 250 and a high centralizer 260 which are typically nuts which engage the cartridge nut 215 and the reverser nut 225 respectively. , as shown in figure 10. A thermostatic button 270 and a reversing button 280 are then mounted respectively in the bottom centering device 250 and in the top centering device 260, as also shown in FIG. 10, typically by means of screws, respectively 272 and 282, the head of which is then covered with a cover, respectively 274 and 284. The final assembly is shown in FIG. 11. The system thus installed in the partition can then be associated with additional components well known to those skilled in the art, which will not be combined. not detailed in more detail here.
[0040] On représente sur la figure 12 une vue en coupe une fois l’ensemble monté dans la cloison 100, selon un plan de coupe perpendiculaire à la cloison 100 et passant par les centres des orifices 310 et 320 de la plaque support 305 représenté sur la figure 11. Comme on le voit sur la figure 12, l’encombrement du mitigeur à l’arrière de la cloison 100 est réduit, et le système de solidarisation du système support 300 à la cloison 100 présente une épaisseur (mesurée selon la direction perpendiculaire à la cloison 100) inférieure à l’épaisseur du corps de mitigeur 200 à l’arrière de la cloison 100. Is shown in Figure 12 a sectional view once the assembly mounted in the partition 100, along a section plane perpendicular to the partition 100 and passing through the centers of the orifices 310 and 320 of the support plate 305 shown in Figure 11. As seen in Figure 12, the size of the mixing valve at the rear of the partition 100 is reduced, and the system for securing the support system 300 to the partition 100 has a thickness (measured according to the direction perpendicular to the partition 100) less than the thickness of the mixer body 200 at the rear of the partition 100.
[0041] Le système proposé et le procédé associé permettent donc de simplifier l’installation d’un mitigeur dans une cloison, et permet de limiter l’encombrement de l’ensemble, notamment en termes d’épaisseur, ce qui est particulièrement avantageux et permet d’éviter la nécessiter d’augmenter l’épaisseur de la cloison en raison du mitigeur. Le système proposé et le procédé associé peuvent s’appliquer pour des mitigeurs de douche ou de baignoire qui sont alors typiquement fixés dans une cloison de type plâtre, mais peut également s’appliquer pour des mitigeurs de lavabo ou d’éviers pour en simplifier l’installation, ou plus généralement pour toute installation d’un mitigeur ou d’un robinet dans une cloison. The proposed system and the associated method therefore make it possible to simplify the installation of a mixing valve in a partition, and makes it possible to limit the size of the assembly, in particular in terms of thickness, which is particularly advantageous and avoids the need to increase the thickness of the partition due to the mixer. The proposed system and the associated method can be applied for shower or bathtub mixers which are then typically fixed in a plaster-type partition, but can also be applied for washbasin or sink mixers to simplify the process. installation, or more generally for any installation of a mixer or tap in a partition.
[0042] Par ailleurs, le système proposé permet de maintenir un accès aux composants ainsi installés dans la cloison 100. Il suffit en effet ici de démonter les différents composants, puis de désengager les éléments de serrage 345 afin de libérer le système support 300 et ainsi avoir accès à l’intégralité des composants du système, ce qui est avantageux notamment pour d’éventuelles opérations de maintenance. [0043] Bien que la présente invention ait été décrite en se référant à des exemples de réalisation spécifiques, il est évident que des modifications et des changements peuvent être effectués sur ces exemples sans sortir de la portée générale de l'invention telle que définie par les revendications. En particulier, des caractéristiques individuelles des différents modes de réalisation illustrés/mentionnés peuvent être combinées dans des modes de réalisation additionnels. Par conséquent, la description et les dessins doivent être considérés dans un sens illustratif plutôt que restrictif. Furthermore, the proposed system makes it possible to maintain access to the components thus installed in the partition 100. In fact, it suffices here to remove the various components, then to disengage the clamping elements 345 in order to release the support system 300 and thus have access to all the components of the system, which is advantageous in particular for any maintenance operations. Although the present invention has been described with reference to specific embodiments, it is obvious that modifications and changes can be made to these examples without departing from the general scope of the invention as defined by the revendications. In particular, individual characteristics of the different illustrated / mentioned embodiments can be combined in additional embodiments. Therefore, the description and the drawings should be taken in an illustrative rather than a restrictive sense.
[0044] Il est également évident que toutes les caractéristiques décrites en référence à un procédé sont transposables, seules ou en combinaison, à un dispositif, et inversement, toutes les caractéristiques décrites en référence à un dispositif sont transposables, seules ou en combinaison, à un procédé. It is also obvious that all the characteristics described with reference to a method can be transposed, alone or in combination, to a device, and conversely, all the characteristics described with reference to a device can be transposed, alone or in combination, to a method.
