Definitions

the invention relates to the field of design and construction of swimming pools. More specifically, the invention relates to the field of pool covers.
the bar covers are opposed to the immersion of a body due to the fixing of bars along the pool that keep stretched the flexible material.
the motorized covers are maintained on the surface of the water and oppose the immersion of a body by the inertia of the engine.
the box For configurations in which the reels are placed in a box, either under the bottom of the pool, or in a wall of the pool, the box requires specific masonry operations and implementation.
the object of the invention is in particular to propose a technique for integrating winding / cover unwinding devices in the structure of a swimming pool which overcomes the disadvantages of the configurations of the prior art and which is part of the new trends. of pool design.
Another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which makes it possible to limit the specific masonry operations to the integration of the winding device / unfolding of the cover.
the invention also aims to provide such a technique that is reliable and secure, both when the cover is in use than when it is wound.
Another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which provides an aesthetically advantageous result.
Yet another object of the invention is to provide such a technique which is simple in design and easy to implement.
a swimming pool comprising a stairway of which at least one step extends over the entire length of one side of said swimming pool and has an internal volume, and a device for winding / unwinding a blanket, characterized in that said winding / unwinding device is housed in said internal volume of said step, means for accessing said internal volume of said step being movably mounted between a closed position and an at least partial opening position permitting the passage of said cover.
the invention thus proposes an advantageous integration of the winding / unwinding device in a swimming pool which is part of the current trend according to which it includes a staircase.
the staircase (and therefore the steps that make it up) are made of traditional masonry.
it directly forms a box capable of receiving the winding device / unfolding of the cover, without it being necessary to carry out new masonry operations specific to the implementation of the winding / unwinding device.
the invention makes it possible to integrate the winding / unwinding device in an aesthetic manner by the discretion of the housing.
a technique according to the invention ensures an excellent level of reliability and security, in particular in that the winding device / unwinding of the cover is rendered inaccessible when the cover is wound.
said internal volume is that of the highest step of said staircase.
this step is indeed advantageous to take advantage of the internal volume of this step to accommodate the device for winding / unfolding the cover, this step being, according to a current demand of users, made wider than the others to be able to lie down in just a few inches of water while sunbathing.
said access means extends in the upper part of said step, in a substantially horizontal plane.
said access means comprises a panel extending in the upper part of said step and over the entire length thereof, said panel being slidably mounted on at least one rail secured to said step.
the access means can be moved by considerably limiting the constraints due to the weight of the water, which would not be the case for example during a tilting movement.
the motor means and the means for connecting the motor means to the access means can therefore be chosen in a relatively light design and therefore inexpensive.
said step comprises a wall on which are fixed at least two rails extending preferably cantilever above said internal volume.
the sliding thereof can be performed on a race provided so that the rails remain hidden under the access means.
the opening thus made does not allow the rails to appear, thus producing a better aesthetic effect.
said side of said pool along which said step extends carries at least one support element on which said access means bears in said closed position.
the access means is thus properly supported in its closed position, in particular in the case of a recourse to rails mounted cantilever.
said winding / unwinding device is associated with first motor means, said access means being associated with second motor means distinct from said first motor means.
said access means is coupled to motor means by at least one flexible connection means one strand of which is coupled to one first edge of said access means and another strand is coupled to a second edge opposite said first edge.
connecting means of said motor means to said connecting means are advantageously provided in the vicinity of each side edge of said access means.
said connecting means of each lateral edge are associated with common motor means.
the principle of the invention lies in the fact of taking advantage of the internal volume of a step of stairs extending over the entire width of the pool to accommodate the winding device / unwinding 'coverage.
one side of the pool is delimited by a wall 1, along which is made a staircase 2 consisting of one or more steps (here four steps).
At least one of the steps of the staircase extends over the entire length of the wall 1, the internal volume 210 of this step forming a housing for a winding device / unwinding 3 of a pool cover 31.
the step in the internal volume in which the winding / unwinding device is housed is the highest step 21 of the staircase 2.
the wall 1 of a swimming pool has a height of 1.20 m (the water thread 10 being situated approximately 10 cm below the height of the wall) and the step highest 21 height of 0.97 m.
the width of the step 21 (including the thickness of the wall 211) is 0.75 m.
these dimensions can vary as much as necessary, insofar as the dimensions of the step 21 are such that its internal volume 210 is sufficient to receive the winding device / unwinding of the cover.
an access means 212 is mounted on the step 21 in the internal volume of which the winding device / unwinding is housed.
This access means 212 is mounted movably between a closed position ( figure 1 ) and an open position ( figure 2 ) in which it allows the passage of the cover 31 out of the internal volume 210.
draining means 213 are provided at the bottom of the internal volume of the step so as to drain water from the internal volume if needed.
the access means 212 is constituted by a panel forming the horizontal upper plane of the step 21 and is slidably mounted in its own plane on rails (described in more detail later) secured to the wall 211.
a rail 4 is mounted adjacent each end of the wall 211, using screws 41.
the rails 4 are mounted cantilevered on the wall. In other words, the free end of the rails 4 extends above the internal volume without support.
the rails 4 have a length such that they extend over approximately half the width of the internal volume.
the rails are made of a material and with a thickness of material chosen so that the rails have sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the various mechanical stresses despite their mounting cantilever.
the wall 1 of the pool carries a support bracket 5 (and preferably two or more) forming a support element for the access means 212 in the closed position.
this or these brackets are positioned in height on the wall 1 so as to have a bearing surface for the lower surface of the access means, that is to say substantially in the extension of the rails 4.
motor means 32 are associated with the winding / unwinding device (these being of the type to immersed motor, the drive motor being placed in the winding drum / unwinding) and motor means 6 are associated with the access means 212, the motor means 6 associated with the access means 212 being distinct from the motor means 32 associated with the winding / unwinding device.
the stainless steel shaft of the geared motor is clamped in a fixed bearing 62.
the geared motor rotates, it drives an axis of a length of 4 to 6 meters (corresponding to the length of the pool).
the means for driving the access means are carried by fixing plates 66 having a square shape, and fixed on the one hand on the side walls of the pool and on the other hand on the wall 211 of walking 21.
the drive means of the access means comprise connecting means coupling the access means to the corresponding motor means.
These connecting means are constituted by two strands 67, 68 in the form of flexible strips, made of reinforced polyethylene, both wound on the tube 61 but with reversed winding directions.
the strand 67 is secured by one of its ends to the front end 2121 of the access means 212 and the strand 68 is secured by one of its ends to the rear end 2122 of the access means 212 .
the strand 68 pulls on the rear end 2122 of the access means and wraps around the tube causing the access means to move in the direction indicated by the arrow F4 (here corresponding to an opening operation of the access means). Simultaneously, the strand 67 proceeds from the drum 63.
flat protective elements 7 are secured to the wall 211 and form sliding surfaces for the access means.
the sealing material conventionally reported on the wall (as on the other walls of the pool) and thus protected from the effects of friction induced by the displacement of the access means.
any appropriate synchronization system is associated with the device just described.
end-of-travel sensors integrated in the tubular motor, not shown
the opening and closing of the access means as well as end-of-travel unwinding sensors and the winding of the cover are provided.
