Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a swimming pool arrangement comprising a swimming pool, a heating device for heating water from the swimming pool, as well as a water supply system for supplying water from said swimming pool to said heating device and from said heating device to said swimming pool.
  • Said water supply system usually comprises a water pump and water channels for pumping water from the swimming pool towards the heating device, for passing the water along the heating device in order to heat the water, as well as for pumping the heated water from the heating device towards the swimming pool, all through the water channels.
  • a disadvantage of said know swimming pool arrangement is that, in the event that the water pump is too powerful, the water is passed along the heating device too quickly, so that the water is insufficiently heated. On the other hand, in the event that the water pump is too weak (i.e. less powerful), the water pump may be turned off by a water stream safety device installed in the swimming pool arrangement.
  • WO 2015/196198 A1 discloses a swimming pool arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide an improved swimming pool arrangement, wherein the water is always properly heated at a desired temperature.
  • a swimming pool arrangement comprises a water supply system which comprises a three-way valve of a first type and a three-way valve of a second type, wherein
  • the three-way valves of the first and second types are simultaneously in their first, second or third positions.
  • water from the swimming pool is short circuited and is pumped through the upper half of the water supply system, wherein the water is not passed through the heating device and is thus not heated.
  • water from the swimming pool is completely passed through the heating device, so that the water is heated at a maximum level (100%).
  • water from the swimming pool is completely passed through the heating device, so that the water is heated at a medium level (50%).
  • the water supply system has an H-shape between the swimming pool and the heating device.
  • said three-way valve of the first type in a fourth position of said three-way valve of the first type, said three-way valve of the first type is arranged to half way opening the water supply towards said heating device, and wherein in a fourth position of said three-way valve of the second type, said three-way valve of the second type is arranged to half way opening the water supply from said heating device.
  • said heating device in their fourth position, a quarter of the water from the swimming pool is passed through the heating device, so that the water is heated at a minimum level (25%).
  • each of said three-way valve of the first type and said three-way valve of the second type particularly have six positions to regulate the water supply, as will be explained in the description to the figures below.
  • said three-way valve of the first type and said three-way valve of the second type can be operated manually, preferably using control knobs thereon in case of a manual operation.
  • Said three-way valve of the first type and said three-way valve of the second type are made of PVC.
  • a swimming pool arrangement or system 1 is shown provided with a swimming pool 2, a heating device 3 for heating water from the swimming pool 2, as well as a water supply system 4 (with a pump, not shown) for supplying water from said swimming pool 2 to said heating device 3 and from said heating device 3 to said swimming pool 2 in the direction of arrows shown.
  • the water supply system 4 has an H-shape between the swimming pool 2 and the heating device 3.
  • a three-way valve 5 of a first type in figure 1 on the left of the H-shape
  • a three-way valve 6 of a second type in figure 1 on the right of the H-shape
  • said three-way valve 5 is in a certain position, wherein it shuts off the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards the heating device 3, and wherein it opens the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards the other three-way valve 6.
  • the other thee-way valve 6 in a certain position opens the water supply from the three-way valve 5 towards the swimming pool 2 and shuts off the water supply from said heating device 3.
  • water from the swimming pool 2 is short circuited and is pumped through the upper half of the H-shape of the water supply system 4, wherein the water is not passed through the heating device 3 and is thus not heated. This is shown by the arrows in the far left in figure 1 .
  • the three-way valve 5 is in a further position, wherein it opens the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards said heating device 3 and wherein it shuts off the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards the other three way valve 6.
  • the latter three-way valve 6 opens the water supply from the heating device 3 towards said swimming pool 2, but closes the water supply from the three-way valve 5.
  • water from the swimming pool 2 is heated at a maximum level (100%). This is shown by the arrows.
  • the three-way valve 5 is in a further position, wherein it opens the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards said heating device 3, and wherein it also opens the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards the other three way valve 6.
  • the latter three-way valve 6 opens the water supply from the heating device 3 towards said swimming pool 2 and also opens the water supply from the three-way valve 5 towards the swimming pool 2.
  • water from the swimming pool 2 is heated at a medium level (50%).
  • the three-way valve 5 is in a further position, wherein it opens the water supply for 50% from the swimming pool 2 towards said heating device 3, and wherein it opens the water supply from the swimming pool 2 towards the other three way valve 6.
  • the latter three-way valve 6 opens the water supply from the heating device 3 towards said swimming pool 2 and also opens the water supply for 50% from the three-way valve 5 towards the swimming pool 2.
  • water from the swimming pool 2 is heated at a minimum level (25%). This is shown by the arrows.
  • the three-way valves 5,6 are always open at their sides towards the swimming pool 2.
  • Three-way valve 5,6 is depicted more in detail in figures 2a, 2c (perspective view) and 2b (top view).
  • a manual control knob 7 is mounted on top of the three-way valve 5,6 and is arranged to put the three-way valve 5,6 in various positions (allowing to pass the water supply for 100%, 50% or 25% or shutting off the water supply).
  • the three-way valve 5,6 of figures 2a and 2b has external screw thread 8 for connection to pipes (not shown) of the water supply system 4.
  • the embodiment shown in figure 2c has 11 ⁇ 2 inch internal screw thread 9 for the connection of a hose connector (not shown).
  • the three-way valves 5,6 each have six positions:
  • the three-way valve 5,6 is also called "bypass set universal six-way valve".
  • Figure 3 shows in the top row cross-sectional views of the three-way valve 5,6 along the lines A-A through F-F seen in the bottom row, each time for different positions of the control knob/handle 7, i.e. for the positions 1 through 6, as explained above. Corresponding parts have been designated with the same reference numerals.
  • an internal closing device 9 inside the three-way valve 5,6 is simultaneously moved as well in order to close off (partly) one of the three ways of the three-way valve 5,6.
