Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an anti-flood device.
  • the present invention regards an anti-flood device prearranged for isolating buildings from water.
  • the present invention regards an anti-flood device prearranged for isolating buildings from water using at least one mobile flood barrier.
  • the openings at ground-floor level for doors or windows are normally provided with guides for mobile flood barriers, usually having a rectangular shape, which are normally stored in the cellar or basement, and, in the case of danger of flooding, are positioned between the guides.
  • guides for mobile flood barriers usually having a rectangular shape, which are normally stored in the cellar or basement, and, in the case of danger of flooding, are positioned between the guides.
  • hydraulic sealing is further improved by the use of pressure members that force contact between the sides of the flood barrier and the guides and between the base of the flood barrier and the floor portion.
  • the simple force of gravity is not sufficient to hold the flood barrier in place downwards.
  • the guides are equipped with brackets, and so also the flood barrier, which as far as possible are set facing one another and possibly in mutual contact when the flood barrier is installed; the brackets are connected through via padlocks so as to prevent relative deviation due to floating of the flood barrier between the guides or limit any transverse play and relative seepage that are even so present.
  • wedge-shaped members that are interposed in the gaps between the sides of the flood barrier and the guides so as to minimize the risk of front seepage, and devices are used designed to exert pressure downwards on the flood barrier to limit the risk of seepage between the base of the flood barrier and the floor.
  • the present invention relates to an anti-flood device.
  • the present invention regards an anti-flood device prearranged for isolating buildings from water.
  • the present invention regards an anti-flood device prearranged for isolating buildings from water using at least one mobile flood barrier.
  • an anti-flood device which comprises: a frame provided with a pair of lateral contrast elements that extend in a given direction starting from a base in contact with a floor and are set facing each other, each said contrast element having a longitudinal abutment, the two said abutments identifying a reference plane developing in said given direction; a flood barrier delimited laterally by two sides shaped being set up against said abutments; and a bottom edge shaped for coupling with said floor between said contrast elements, elastic sealing means being arranged longitudinally between each said abutment and each said edge for coupling said flood barrier and said contrast elements at the front in a hydraulically sealed manner, sealing means being arranged between said flood barrier and said floor to exert a sealing action at the level of said bottom edge, attachment means being carried by said contrast elements for holding said flood barrier at the front against the countering action of said elastic sealing means, the anti-
  • the aforesaid attachment means comprise a pin for each of said bases, which is brought up against said abutment to delimit a space, the depth of which approximates a thickness of the corresponding side of said flood barrier.
  • safety means are provided designed to block said sides of said flood barrier against said abutments and said edge against said floor.
  • each of said sides is delimited at the top by a hollow portion, which houses a roller carried in a rotatable manner in a direction transverse to said direction; each said contrast element being delimited at the top by a head piece having a width greater than the thickness of said flood barrier and having thrust means designed to press said flood barrier towards said floor.
  • said thrust means comprise a substantially cylindrical central seat for said roller and a front portion for attachment of said head piece having a thickness that increases in the direction of said seat.
  • said safety means comprise at least one latch carried at the top by said flood barrier in a position corresponding to said side so that it faces the respective said head piece, the bolt of the latch being mobile between a neutral position where it does not project beyond said flood barrier and an operative position where it partially projects with respect to said flood barrier and interferes with said corresponding head piece in a respective housing.
  • the aforesaid edge is convex and V-shaped; a sectional bar with V-shaped section being provided between said bases of said contrast elements at the level of said floor and being provided with a concave portion prearranged for housing said edge in a hydraulically sealed manner.
  • a strip of elastomeric material is provided between said bar and said edge.
  • the device 1 comprises a frame 10 provided with a pair of lateral contrast elements 12, 12' applied to the side edges B of an opening A of a known building, where said lateral contrast elements 12, 12' extend in a given direction D starting from a base 14, 14' set in substantial contact with a floor P.
  • the floor P is illustrated in the attached figures as a box-shaped body having a flattened rectangular section, without thereby conditioning the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
  • the two contrast elements 12 and 12' are obtained with two sectional bodies having an L section.
  • the two contrast elements 12 and 12' are set facing one another, and each of them has a plane and longitudinal abutment 120, 120', set at the front in Figures 1-4 .
  • the two abutments 120, 120' identify as a whole a reference plane M ( Figure 3 ), which is internally tangential to the abutments 120 and 120' and develops according to the given direction D.
  • the device 1 further comprises a flood barrier 20, which is laterally delimited by two sides 22, 22', shaped being set up against the abutments 120, 120', and a bottom edge 24.
  • Said bottom edge 24 is shaped for coupling with the floor P between the contrast elements 12, 12' and can have a cross section shaped in a substantially rectangular or semi-circular manner, or having a V-shape, according to the conformation of the floor P between the two contrast elements 12 and 12'.
  • the edge 24 is rectangular, without this in any way limiting the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
  • the device 1 comprises elastic sealing members 30, which are arranged longitudinally between each abutment 120, 120' and each edge 22, 22' for coupling at the front the flood barrier 20 and the contrast elements 12, 12' in a hydraulically sealed manner.
  • the flood barrier 20 has a sealing element 40 constituted by a strip of elastomeric material, which, for practical reasons is designated by the same reference number 40 and has the purpose of exerting a sealing action at the level of the bottom edge 24.
  • this strip 40 must necessarily be set at the interface between the flood barrier 20 and the floor P to exert its own hydraulic sealing action at the base of the flood barrier 20, so that falling within the scope of the present invention is also the version of the device 1 in which said strip 40 is applied to the floor P at the moment of installation of the device 1 itself.
  • the device 1 further comprises engagement members 50, which are carried by the contrast elements 12, 12' for holding the flood barrier 20 at the front against the countering action of the elastic sealing means 30.
  • the engagement members 50 comprise a pin 52 for each base 14, where said pin is carried parallel to and longitudinally facing the respective abutment 120/120' for delimiting, together with the latter, a space, the depth of which locally approximates the thickness of the corresponding side 22, 22' of the flood barrier 20.
  • Each side 22, 22' of the flood barrier 20 is delimited at the top by a hollow portion 220, 220', which houses a roller 222/222', rotatably carried in a direction transverse to the direction D.
  • Each contrast element 12, 12' is delimited at the top by a head piece 122, 122', the width of which is greater than a thickness of the flood barrier 20.
  • Each head piece 122/122' ( Figure 13 ) has thrust members 1220, 1220' designed to press the flood barrier against the floor P.
  • thrust members 1220/1220' are designed to act by shape fitting and, in particular, they comprise a substantially cylindrical central seat 1222, 1222' for the roller 222, 222' and a front portion 1224, 1224', which is provided for attachment of the head piece 122, 122' and has a thickness that increases in the direction of the seat 1220, 1220', and is hence shaped like an inclined plane.
  • the device 1 comprises safety members 60 designed to block the sides 22, 22' of the flood barrier 20 against the abutments 120, 120' and, at the same time, the edge 24 against the floor P.
  • the safety members 60 comprise a latch 62 for each side of the flood barrier 20, where each latch is carried at the top by the flood barrier 20 in a position facing the respective head piece 122, 122' with the bolt mobile between a neutral position where it does not project beyond the flood barrier 20 and an operative position where it partially projects with respect to the flood barrier 20 and interferes with the corresponding head piece 122, 122' in a respective housing 1226, 1226'.
  • At least one handle 80 is applied to the flood barrier; in Figure 1 , the handle 80 is single, given the small dimensions of the flood barrier 20 that used as model for illustrating the structural characteristics of the present invention.
  • the flood barrier 20 is arranged neatly with the sides 22 and 22' inclined with respect to the contrast elements 12 and 12', and the handle 80 can be used to turn the flood barrier 20 itself in the clockwise direction as viewed in Figure 10 , after it has been brought into contact with the front portion 1222/1222' of each head piece 122/122'.
  • latches 62 enables definitive stabilization of this operating condition, which - it may be pointed out - has been brought about by exerting an action of pressure sufficient to overcome the elastic resistance of the elastic sealing members 30, which are in fact arranged longitudinally between each abutment 120, 120' and each edge 22, 22', with the effect of coupling at the front the flood barrier 20 and the sealing contrast elements 12, 12'.
  • the anti-flood device 1 can be used not only to prevent entry of water through the openings (doors or windows) of a building, by providing sealed stretches in combination with the side edges B and the respective floor portions P, but also to prevent access of liquids into subways, tunnels, or underground passages, which are provided with parallel sides or sides rendered such at least for the vertical extension of the flood barriers used.
  • Figure 17 illustrates an opening A particularly extensive in width.
  • the flow of the liquid to be stopped could be particularly significant, both in terms of mass and in terms of power associated with the incoming mass of liquid.
  • an anti-deflection unit 90 comprising a plurality of vertical latches 91 distributed at the bottom along the flood barrier 20 and provided with bolts 92 mobile in a vertical direction selectively between a neutral position and a position of engagement of a hole 94, made in the floor P in front of or behind the projection on the ground of the flood barrier 20.
  • Each hole 94 houses a bushing 96 of a known type, vertically accessible by a bolt 92 but normally closed by a base (known and not illustrated) mobile vertically towards the bottom of the bushing 96 following upon displacement of the respective bolt 92 from a neutral position to a position of engagement against the thrust of a spring, known and not illustrated. It may well be understood that the purpose of the mobile base of each bushing 96 is to prevent intrusion of dirt or obstructing bodies into the bushing 96 itself.
  • the anti-flood device 1 can be validly used for overcoming the drawbacks of the prior art illustrated above in a simple and inexpensive manner, thanks to the structural characteristics described above, which can be modified, without thereby departing from the scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
