Description

Title of the invention: Swimming pool installation equipped with buffer tubes for storing water from a water recovery network Technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a swimming pool installation equipped with buffer tubes for storing water from a water recovery network, and in particular for recovering rainwater and / or used sanitary water.

[0002] It relates more particularly to a swimming pool installation which offers a solution for storing water recovered by a water recovery network.

[0003] The invention finds a preferred, and non-limiting, application for a swimming pool installation intended for individuals or communities. Prior art

[0004] As is known, the recovered water, whether from a rainwater recovery network or a used sanitary water recovery network, is stored in dedicated recovery tanks, generally buried.

[0005] The disadvantages of such a buried recovery tank are that it requires a dedicated space in the ground, and therefore a dead surface for the garden, and that it also requires burial and earthworks which negatively impact the installation cost. Summary of the invention

[0006] To meet the ecological challenges of recovery, storage and reuse of recovered water, the invention proposes a solution which is economical, in the sense that it takes advantage of a swimming pool, and more particularly of a construction site for an in-ground or semi-in-ground swimming pool, to install means for storing water from a water recovery network.

[0007] An aim of the invention is to optimize the space for the installation of a recovery water storage volume.

[0008] To this end, the invention proposes a swimming pool installation comprising: - peripheral pool walls arranged around a pool bottom wall to internally delimit a pool; - support elements fixed externally on the peripheral walls of the pool and arranged around the pool; - buffer tubes used for water storage and which are supported by the support elements so as to extend around the basin; - a water recovery network, for example for recovering rainwater and / or used sanitary water, which is fluidically connected to the buffer tubes in order to fill them with water; and - a hydraulic distribution system which is fluidically connected to the buffer tubes and which is provided with at least one distribution pump for distributing the water stored in the buffer tubes.

[0009] Thus, the invention proposes, during a swimming pool construction site, to use support elements which will serve both to support the peripheral walls of the pool and to support the buffer tubes. In this way, these support elements form structural stiffening elements which contribute to the mechanical strength of the pool, in the face of the horizontal pressure exerted by the water contained in the pool on the peripheral walls of the pool, while supporting the buffer tubes which are thus protected once buried.

[0010] Furthermore, the burial of the buffer tubes, serving as storage tanks for the water coming from the water recovery network, is done at the same time as the construction of the buried or semi-buried pool, so that there is no need to plan for subsequent burial work; in other words, the burial and earthworks are done at the same time at the time of the creation of the swimming pool. Furthermore, by arranging the buffer tubes around the pool basin, the invention makes it possible to reduce the space occupied in the ground for the volume of storage of recovered water, compared to a solution based on a conventional buried recovery tank.

[0011] With this swimming pool installation, the recovered water is therefore channeled into the buffer tubes, positioned around the pool, before being distributed according to uses and needs by means of the hydraulic distribution system. Also, the invention proposes to combine a classic and fun use of the swimming pool, with an ecological and economical use of storing recovered water.

[0012] According to one characteristic, the support elements each have at least two support stages which are superimposed one above the other, so as to support buffer tubes superimposed one above the other.

[0013] Thus, the buffer tubes extend around the pool and are superimposed on each other; the different support elements thus forming a sort of ladder between which the buffer tubes extend. This characteristic makes it possible to have several buffer tubes all around the pool, without taking up too much space on the sides, by taking advantage of the height offered by the pool to “stack” the buffer tubes vertically. However, the buffer tubes are offset vertically, each being carried by the dedicated support stages, so as to make the buffer tubes mechanically reliable.

[0014] According to one possibility, the water recovery network is provided with at least one filtration device upstream of the buffer tubes, so as to filter the recovery water before storage in the buffer tubes.

[0015] According to another possibility, the water recovery network is provided with an overflow upstream of the buffer tubes, so as to evacuate the excess water when the buffer tubes are all full.

[0016] In a particular embodiment, the swimming pool installation comprises a pool treatment system comprising: - a pond pump connected to a pond filter via a multi-way valve; - a suction circuit connected to the pond pump and which is equipped with at least one suction pipe fitted with a suction inlet provided on the pond; - a discharge circuit connected, via the multi-way valve, to the pond pump and which is equipped with at least one discharge pipe fitted with a discharge outlet provided on the pond; and - a purge circuit connected, via the multi-way valve, to the pond pump and which is equipped with at least one purge pipe.

[0017] According to one feature, the at least one suction pipe and / or the at least one discharge pipe is at least partially supported by at least a portion of the support elements next to the buffer tubes.

[0018] Thus, the suction pipe(s) and / or the discharge pipe(s) are carried by the support elements, which improves the durability of these pipes since there is no longer any stress exerted on them.

[0019] According to another characteristic, the at least one purge pipe is provided with a purge filter and is fluidically connected to at least one of the buffer tubes in order to fill it with purge water from the basin.

[0020] Thus, the buffer tubes can also be used to recover and store the purge water from the pool, in particular when cleaning the pool filter, preferably by passing through the purge filter which reduces the possible chlorine level.

[0021] In a particular embodiment, the hydraulic distribution system comprises upstream of the distribution pump upstream distribution pipes which are, on the one hand, all connected to the distribution pump and, on the other hand, fluidically connected to the respective buffer tubes, each upstream distribution pipe thus being allocated to one of the buffer tubes which is specific to it and being provided with a valve in order to suck the water independently from the buffer tubes.

[0022] In this way, each buffer tube can be used / emptied independently for dispensing related to a particular use.

[0023] In an advantageous embodiment, the hydraulic distribution system comprises downstream of the distribution pump downstream distribution pipes which are, on the one hand, all connected to the distribution pump and, on the other hand, fluidically connected to separate distribution ports, each downstream distribution pipe thus being allocated to one of the distribution ports which is specific to it and being provided with a valve in order to distribute the water independently to the distribution ports.

[0024] In this way, distribution can be done independently on each of the distribution ports, according to the needs of the user.

[0025] Advantageously, the downstream distribution pipes comprise at least one of the following pipes: a watering pipe for outdoor watering, a domestic pipe for domestic use, a pool filling pipe for filling the pool.

[0026] According to one possibility, the water recovery network is connected to an overflow of the basin in order to be able to fill the buffer tubes with water coming from this overflow.

[0027] Thus, the buffer tubes can also be used to recover and store water from the overflow of the pool, in particular during a heavy rain event, preferably by passing through a filtration device which reduces the possible chlorine level.

[0028] In a particular embodiment, the support elements have respective tops in the upper part which are arranged in the same horizontal plane, and the swimming pool installation comprises spacers extending between the tops of at least two support elements and assembled end to end to thus extend around the pool, and a coping for the pool which is fixed on said spacers, for example with a fixing by gluing.

[0029] Thus, the support elements extend over the height of the pool to carry spacers which serve to support the edge of the pool, adding a new function to these support elements in addition to those of supporting the buffer tubes and structurally reinforcing the pool. These spacers will also structurally stiffen the assembly formed by the support elements. It should be noted that these spacers can be in the form of profiles.

[0030] Advantageously, the spacers each have a hollow channel section, in order to together delimit an external channel around the basin.

[0031] In this way, the support elements also support the gutter, which is integrated into the spacers assembled end to end. The hollow gutter section thus forms a gutter-shaped section, for example having a “U” shape, in order to collect runoff water, for example from a terrace bordering the swimming pool. The external gutter may extend around the entire perimeter of the pool, and alternatively it may not extend around the entire perimeter of the pool, but only over a part of its perimeter.

[0032] According to one possibility, the support elements each have a base fixed on a slab supporting the basin.

[0033] Thus, these support elements are fixed both to the peripheral walls of the pool and to the slab, generally a concrete slab.

[0034] According to another possibility, the support elements are secured to each other, step by step, thus stiffening the structure formed by the support elements thus interconnected.

[0035] The invention also relates to a method of manufacturing the swimming pool installation described above, comprising the following steps: - pour a slab inside a cavity previously dug in the ground; - form the basin on the slab using the peripheral basin walls arranged around the basin bottom wall; - fix the support elements externally on the peripheral walls of the pool, said support elements being placed on the slab and arranged around the pool; - mount the buffer tubes on the support elements so as to be supported by these support elements so as to extend around the basin; - fluidly connect the buffer tubes to the water recovery network, for example rainwater recovery and / or used sanitary water to be able to fill the buffer tubes with water; and - fluidly connect the buffer tubes to the distribution pump of the hydraulic distribution system to be able to distribute the water stored in the buffer tubes.

[0043] [Detailed description of one or more embodiments of the invention]

[0044] With reference to [Fig.l], an underground or semi-underground swimming pool installation 1, according to the invention, comprises: - a buried or semi-buried basin 2 comprising at least peripheral basin walls 20 arranged around a basin bottom wall 21 to internally delimit the basin 2; - support elements 3 fixed externally on the peripheral walls of the basin 20 and arranged around the basin 2; - buffer tubes 4 used for water storage and which are supported by the support elements 3 so as to extend around the basin 2.

[0045] The basin 2 is preferably an underground basin. This basin 2 is arranged inside a cavity previously dug in a ground, on a slab 90, for example formed from a concrete screed, preferably reinforced.

[0046] The walls 20, 21 of the basin 2 may be made of different materials, such as stainless steel, steel, a plastic material such as PVC, wood, or any other materials capable of fulfilling this role. The peripheral walls of the basin 20 may be formed of assembled panels, such as concrete panels as illustrated in [Fig.5].

[0047] Depending on the case, the basin 2 will also comprise one or more sealing layers on the walls 20, 21 of the basin 2. The basin bottom wall 21 can thus be formed from such a sealing layer fixed to the slab 90. The sealing layer fixed to the slab 90 (and therefore forming in part the basin bottom wall 21) can, in an exemplary embodiment illustrated in [Fig. 6], protrude from the basin bottom walls 21 (therefore outside the basin 2) and pass under the support elements 3.

[0048] The slab 90 is sized so as to extend beyond the pool bottom walls 21, thus forming a peripheral slab strip 91 around the entire perimeter of the pool bottom wall 21. As can be seen in Figures 2 to 6, the support elements 3 are fixed to this peripheral slab strip 91, for example by screwing, bolting, or other fixing / securing means. Thus, the support elements 3 each have a base 30 fixed to the slab 90 supporting the pool 2. In the example of [Fig. 5], the base 30 of at least one of the support elements 3 can be fixed to the 90 slab with the interposition of adjustable feet 33, previously adjusted to the correct height, before fixing on the 90 slab.

[0049] As visible in [Fig.l], the support elements 3 are arranged around the perimeter of the basin 2, and are spaced from each other, for example at regular intervals. The support elements 3 are thus arranged outside the basin 2 and are also fixed to the peripheral walls of the basin 20, for example by screwing, bolting, or other fixing / securing means.

[0050] These support elements 3 preferably extend over substantially the entire height / depth of the pool 2, so that these support elements 3 can have variable or distinct heights if the pool 2 has a height / depth that varies. These support elements 3 serve to structure the pool 2, by supporting the peripheral pool walls 20, in the manner of struts or props.

[0051] The support elements 3 have respective tops 31 in the upper part which are arranged in the same horizontal plane, and the swimming pool installation 1 comprises spacers 5 (of the profiled type) extending between the tops 31 of at least two support elements 3 and assembled end to end to thus extend around the pool 2. These spacers 5 make it possible to secure the support elements 3 together, step by step, thus stiffening the structure of the swimming pool installation 1. The support elements 3 are therefore linked and blocked together by their tops 31, allowing total rigidity of the structure.

[0052] Furthermore, and as visible in Figures 2 to 4 and 6, the swimming pool installation 1 comprises a coping 22 for the pool 2 which is fixed on these spacers 5, for example with a glued fixing. Thus, the support elements 3, via the spacers 5, also serve to support the coping 22 of the pool 2.

[0053] In the embodiment of [Fig.4], the spacers 5 extend outwardly from the coping 22 and the support elements 3, each to present a hollow section of gutter 50, in order to delimit together an external gutter 51 around the basin 2. The external gutter 51 is offset from the coping 22, and is preferably covered by a grid 54; this grid 54 coming for example in the extension of a terrace 92 in order to collect in the external gutter 51 the water running off this terrace 92. The external gutter 51 is also illustrated schematically in [Fig.2],

[0054] The support elements 3 each have at least two support stages 32 which are superimposed one above the other, so as to support at least two buffer tubes 4 superimposed one above the other. In the examples illustrated in Figures 2 to 6, the support elements 3 each have three support stages 32 which are superimposed one above the other, so as to support three buffer tubes 4 superimposed vertically. The support elements 3 thus form sorts ladders, made for example of metal or a metal alloy such as steel. The support elements 3 are therefore also buried, with the buffer tubes 4, in the cavity dug in the ground, before being covered.

[0055] The buffer tubes 4 extend between the support members 3 which support them, and may be composed of tubular sections joined end to end in a sealed manner. The buffer tubes 4 may have circular sections or other cross-sectional shapes. The buffer tubes 4 may be made of a plastic material, such as for example PVC or PET, or of another material suitable for storing water in a sealed manner.

[0056] The swimming pool installation 1 further comprises: - a water recovery network 6, shown diagrammatically in [Fig.6], which is fluidically connected to the buffer tubes 4 in order to fill them with water; and - a hydraulic distribution system 7, shown diagrammatically in [Fig.3], which is fluidically connected to the buffer tubes 4 and which is provided with at least one distribution pump 70 for distributing the water stored in the buffer tubes 4.

[0057] The water recovery network 6 may be a network for recovering rainwater and / or used sanitary water.

[0058] Rainwater recovery can be carried out for example at the level of one or more gutters of a building, and for example also at the level of the external gutter 51 as illustrated in [Fig.2]. Used sanitary water recovery can be carried out at the level of one or more sanitary water drains connected for example to washbasins, sinks, showers, bathtubs, etc.

[0059] With reference to [Fig.2], this water recovery network 6 can be provided with at least one filtration device 60 upstream of the buffer tubes 4, in order to at least partially filter the recovery water before storage in the buffer tubes 4.

[0060] This water recovery network 6 can be provided with an overflow 61 upstream of the buffer tubes 4, in order to evacuate excess recovery water if the buffer tubes 4 are full.

[0061] With reference to [Fig.2], the water recovery network 6 can be connected to an overflow 23 of the basin 2 (via a crossing of one of the peripheral walls of the basin 20) in order to be able to fill the buffer tubes 4 with water coming from this overflow 23.

[0062] As visible in [Fig. 3] the hydraulic distribution system 7 can comprise upstream of the distribution pump 70 upstream distribution pipes 71 which are, on the one hand, all connected to the distribution pump 70 and, on the other hand, fluidically connected to the respective buffer tubes 4, each upstream distribution pipe 71 thus being allocated to one of the buffer tubes 4 which is specific to it and being provided with a valve 72. Thus, by acting on the openings / closing the valves 72 of each of the upstream distribution pipes 71, it is possible to suck the water independently from the buffer tubes 4.

[0063] In a variant illustrated in [Fig.l], the hydraulic distribution system 7 comprises a sealed tank 77 into which each of the buffer tubes 4 opens (possibly via a valve 72) and the distribution pump 70 is connected to said sealed tank 77.

[0064] Furthermore, and as visible in [Fig. 3] the hydraulic distribution system 7 comprises downstream of the distribution pump 70 downstream distribution pipes 73 which are, on the one hand, all connected to the distribution pump 70 and, on the other hand, fluidically connected to separate distribution ports 74, each downstream distribution pipe 73 thus being allocated to one of the distribution ports 74 which is specific to it and being provided with a valve 75. Thus, by acting on the openings / closings of the valves 75 of each of the upstream distribution pipes 74, it is possible to distribute the water (coming from at least one of the buffer tubes 4) independently on the downstream distribution pipes 73, and therefore on the distribution ports 74.

[0065] For example, the downstream distribution pipes 73 comprise at least one of the following pipes: a watering pipe for outdoor watering, a domestic pipe for domestic use, a pool filling pipe for filling the pool 2. In the last example, and as visible in [Fig. 3], one of the downstream distribution pipes 73 passes through one of the peripheral pool walls 20, so that the associated distribution port 74 opens out at the interior of the pool 2.

[0066] With reference to [Fig.2], the swimming pool installation 1 comprises a treatment system 8 for the pool 2 comprising: - a pond pump 80 connected to a pond filter 81 via a multi-way valve 82; - a suction circuit connected to the pond pump 80 and which is provided with at least one suction pipe 83 equipped with a suction inlet 84, 85 provided on the pond 2, such as for example of the skimmer 84 type and / or bottom drain 85 as illustrated in [Fig.l]; - a discharge circuit connected, via the multi-way valve 82, to the pool pump 80 and which is provided with at least one discharge pipe 86 equipped with a discharge outlet 87 (visible in [Fig.l]) provided on the pool 2; and - a purge circuit connected, via the multi-way valve 82, to the pond pump 80 and which is provided with at least one purge pipe 88.

[0067] Thus, in a filtration position of the multi-way valve 82, the water from the basin 2 is sucked in at the level of the suction inlet(s) 84, 85, to pass into the filter of basin 81, and then be discharged at the level of the discharge inlet(s) 87. In a purge position of the multi-way valve 82, the water from the basin 2 is sucked at the level of the suction inlet(s) 84, 85, to be discharged directly via the purge pipe(s) 88. In a cleaning position of the multi-way valve 82, the water from the basin 2 is sucked at the level of the suction inlet(s) 84, 85, to pass into the basin filter 81 in order to clean it, and then to be discharged via the purge pipe(s) 88. Other positions are of course conceivable to have other circulations of the water from the basin 2.

[0068] Advantageously, the at least one suction pipe 83 and / or the at least one discharge pipe 86 is at least partially supported by at least a portion of the support elements 3 next to the buffer tubes 4. Thus, the suction pipe(s) 83 may be supported by all or part of the support elements 3. Similarly, the discharge pipe(s) 86 may be supported by all or part of the support elements 3. The support elements 3 may therefore also be used to carry such pipes 83, 86.

[0069] According to one possibility, the at least one purge pipe 88 is provided with a purge filter 89 and is fluidically connected to at least one of the buffer tubes 4 in order to fill them with purge water from the basin 2. In other words, the water sucked into the basin 2 can be introduced into at least one of the buffer tubes 4 to be stored there, after filtration via the purge filter 89 (for example filtration to remove chlorine and / or chlorine derivatives).
