The swimming pool cover system has a cover which floats on the surface of the water, and a well (4) extending over the whole width of the pool to accommodate a winding shaft (3) for the cover. The well is located between the swimming pool (1) and its overflow channel (7) adjacent to its respective broad side so that the closed cover (5) of the well is overflowed, consequently the well is integrated in the water flushing system. The well has a separate shut-off water drain (8).

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Schwimmbecken der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten Art.The invention relates to a swimming pool in the preamble of Claim 1 mentioned Art.

Schwimmbecken bzw. Abdeckvorrichtungen sind z.B. aus der DE 30 32 277 C2 und der EP 0 369 038 B1 bekannt. Bei diesen bekannten Abdeckvorrichtungen befindet sind der Schacht unterhalb des Bodens des Schwimmbeckens, wobei der Deckel motorisch geöffnet werden muss, um die schwimmfähige Abdeckung von der Wickelwelle, unterhalb des Bodens des Schwimmbeckens aus nach oben aufschwimmen zu lassen, wonach sie dann auf der Wasseroberfläche des Schwimmbeckens selbsttätig oder aber von Hand geführt die Oberfläche des Schwimmbeckens abdecken soll. Der in aller Regel als Rost ausgebildete Deckel verschließt bei nicht abgedecktem Schwimmbad den Schacht, damit Schwimmer und Taucher nicht in den offenen Schacht gelangen können und auch die Wickelwelle nicht beschädigt werden kann.Swimming pools or cover devices are e.g. from DE 30 32 277 C2 and EP 0 369 038 B1 are known. In these known covering devices are the shaft below the bottom of the pool, the The motorized cover must be opened to cover the floatable cover Winding shaft, from below the bottom of the pool upwards to float, after which they then on the water surface of the Swimming pool automatically or manually guided the surface of the Swimming pool should cover. The lid, which is usually designed as rust closes the shaft when the swimming pool is not covered, so that swimmers and Divers cannot get into the open shaft and neither can the winding shaft can be damaged.

Diese bekannten Abdeckvorrichtungen sind schwer zu warten, da bei größeren Wartungsarbeiten das gesamte Schwimmbecken und auch der Schacht entleert werden müssen. Andererseits stört der sich am und unterhalb des Beckenbodens befindende Schacht das Wasserspülsystem eines Schwimmbeckens, da dieser Schacht in aller Regel nicht in der gleichen Weise durchströmt wird, wie das übrige bis zum Beckenboden reichende Wasservolumen eines Schwimmbeckens.These known covering devices are difficult to maintain because they are larger Maintenance work the entire pool and also the shaft to be emptied have to. On the other hand, the one located on and below the pelvic floor bothers Well the water flushing system of a swimming pool, because this well in all Is not usually flowed through in the same way as the rest up to Water volume of a swimming pool reaching the bottom of the pool.

Darum wurden neben den oberhalb der Wasserfläche und außerhalb des Schwimmbeckens liegenden Abdeckvorrichtungen auch solche Abdeckvorrichtungen vorgeschlagen, die neben dem eigentlichen Schwimmbeckenbereich und unmittelbar unterhalb der Wasseroberfläche des Schwimmbeckens liegen. Auch bei einer solchen Abdeckvorrichtung muss der neben dem eigentlichen Schwimmbecken vorgesehene Schacht zur Aufnahme der Wickelwelle nach oben hin abgedeckt werden, was mit Hilfe eines gitterrostartigen Deckels erfolgt, der sich mit Hilfe von Stützelementen, die in unmittelbarer Nähe der Beckenlängsseiten unterhalb des Deckels vorgesehen sind, auf der Oberkante der Zwischenwand zwischen Schacht und Schwimmbecken abstützt. Da die von der Wickelwelle abgewickelte schwimmfähige Abdeckung sich zwischen diesen Stützelementen hindurchbewegen muss, ist die maximale Beckenbreite bei solchen Abdeckvorrichtungen begrenzt. Auch bei einer solchen Abdeckvorrichtung wird der die Wickelwelle aufnehmende Schacht nicht in der gleichen Weise durchspült, wie das gesamte Schwimmbecken, so dass sich auch hier in dem Schacht Ablagerungen sammeln.Therefore, in addition to the above the water surface and outside the Covering devices lying in the swimming pool also include such covering devices suggested that next to the actual pool area and immediately lie below the water surface of the swimming pool. Even with one The covering device must be the one next to the actual swimming pool Shaft to accommodate the winding shaft to be covered upwards, with what help of a grate-like cover, which is made with the help of support elements which are in are provided in the immediate vicinity of the long sides of the pool below the lid the upper edge of the partition between the shaft and the swimming pool. There the floating cover unwound from the winding shaft is between them Support elements must move through, the maximum pool width in such Covering devices limited. Even with such a covering device, the Shaft receiving shaft does not flush in the same way as that entire swimming pool, so that there are also deposits in the shaft collect.

Aus der DE-B-14 34 647 ist ein Schwimmbecken bekannt, das die im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale aufweist. Bei diesem bekannten Schwimmbecken ist der Schacht durch einen auf den Boden des Schwimmbeckens abgesenkten Behälter gebildet, der in seinem unteren Teil die die Abdeckung aufnehmende Wickelwelle und in seinem oberen Teil einen Antriebsmotor aufweist, die über eine Antriebskette miteinander verbunden sind. Innerhalb des Behälters ist eine Führungsbahn für die Abdeckung vorgesehen, die das vordere Ende der Abdeckung nach oben und auf die Wasseroberfläche des Schwimmbeckens führt. Die Abdeckung wickelt sich dabei aufgrund ihres Auftriebs selbsttätig von der Wickelwelle ab, sobald diese zu ihrer freien Umdrehung entriegelt wird. Diese Art der Anordnung soll nicht nur ein selbsttätiges Aufrollen der Wickelrolle verhindern, sondern bewirkt ein selbsttätiges Abrollen und Ausschieben der Abdeckung von der Wickelwelle. Oben im Behälter ist eine Überlaufrinne eingebaut, die über ein Ablaufrohr an einer Filteranlage angeschlossen ist. Die Übertrittshöhe der Flüssigkeit in die Überlaufrinne hinein ist im wesentlichen von der Leistung des Filters und der Länge der Überlaufrinne abhängig und soll eine stationär im Schwimmbecken eingebaute Rinne ersetzen können. Der Behälter ragt auch in seinem abgesenkten Zustand mit seinem Oberteil über die Wasseroberfläche hinaus bis über den Beckenrad des Schwimmbeckens, wo der Behälter mit einem z.B. über Scharniere kippbaren Deckel versehen ist. Der abgesenkte Behälter wird an seiner der freien Wassermasse des Schwimmbeckens zugewandten Seite durch eine Trennwand begrenzt , die lediglich einen zum Durchlaufen der Abdeckung ausreichenden Schlitz aufweist.From DE-B-14 34 647 a swimming pool is known, which the Features specified in the preamble of claim 1. With this Known swimming pool is the shaft through a to the bottom of the Swimming pool lowered container formed, which in its lower part which the Covering winding shaft and a drive motor in its upper part has, which are connected to each other via a drive chain. Within the Container is provided a guideway for the cover, which is the front end the cover upwards and onto the water surface of the swimming pool. Due to its buoyancy, the cover automatically winds away from the Winding shaft as soon as it is unlocked for its free rotation. That kind of The arrangement is not only intended to prevent the winding roll from rolling up automatically, but also causes the cover to unroll and slide out of the winding shaft automatically. An overflow channel is installed in the top of the tank, which is connected to a drain pipe Filter system is connected. The height of the liquid in the overflow channel is essentially dependent on the performance of the filter and the length of the overflow channel dependent and should be able to replace a channel installed in the swimming pool. The container protrudes with its upper part over the even in its lowered state Water surface beyond the pool wheel of the pool, where the Containers with e.g. hinged lid is provided. The lowered container is at its the free water mass of the swimming pool facing side bounded by a partition that only one to Passing through the cover has sufficient slot.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein Schwimmbecken der eingangs genannten Art so weiterzubilden, dass die Abdeckung leicht zu warten ist und ihr Schacht nicht zu einer Ansammlung von Sedimenten neigt. The object of the invention is a swimming pool of the type mentioned to further develop that the cover is easy to maintain and its shaft does not become one Accumulation of sediments tends.

Bei einem Schwimmbecken der genannten Art ist diese Aufgabe durch die im kennzeichnenden Teil des Patentanspruchs 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.In a swimming pool of the type mentioned, this task is performed by the characterizing part of claim 1 specified features.

Das erfindungsgemäße Schwimmbecken ist allseitig mit Überflutungsrinnen umgeben, wie dieses insbesondere bei öffentlichen Bädern üblich ist. Bei derartigen Schwimmbecken ist der Wasserstand im Betriebszustand des Schwimmbeckens so hoch, dass das Wasser über die Oberkanten der Schwimmbeckenränder hinweg in die Überflutungsrinnen hineinströmt, aus denen es dann über übliche Rückführungssysteme und Filtereinrichtungen wieder in das Schwimmbecken zurückgeführt wird, wodurch die Überflutungsrinnen Teil des Wasserspülsystems des Schwimmbeckens sind. Durch die Anordnung des Schachtes der Abdeckvorrichtung zwischen der Schwimmbeckenwand an einer seiner Breitseiten und der dort vorgesehenen Überflutungsrinne wird der Schacht in das Wasserspülsystem integriert, so dass auch er dauernd durchströmt und damit durchspült wird. Dieses kann durch auch im Schacht vorgesehene Wasserabläufe und ggf. auch Zuläufe weiter optimiert werden. Der Deckel des Schachtes befindet sich unmittelbar unterhalb der Wasseroberfläche im Betriebszustand des Schwimmbeckens und vorzugsweise etwa auf gleicher Höhe wie z.B. rostförmige Abdeckungen der Überflutungsrinnen.The swimming pool according to the invention is surrounded on all sides by flood channels, as is particularly common in public pools. With such Swimming pool is the water level in the operating state of the swimming pool high that the water over the top edges of the pool edges into the Flooding channels flow in, from which it then flows through conventional return systems and filtering devices are returned to the swimming pool, whereby the Flood channels are part of the pool's water flushing system. Through the Arrangement of the shaft of the cover between the pool wall on one of its broad sides and the flood channel provided there, the Shaft integrated in the water rinsing system so that it also flows through continuously so that it is flushed through. This can also be done through water drains provided in the shaft and if necessary also inlets can be further optimized. The cover of the shaft is located immediately below the water surface in the operating state of the swimming pool and preferably at about the same level as e.g. rusty covers of the Flooding gutters.

Zum Abwickeln und Ausfahren der schwimmfähigen Abdeckung wird der Deckel von Hand oder motorisch abgehoben oder nach oben geschwenkt, so dass die von der Wickelwelle abgewickelte Abdeckung auf die freie Wasseroberfläche des Schwimmbeckens gelangen kann und dort zur Abdeckung der gesamten Oberfläche des Schwimmbeckens über die Wasseroberfläche schwimmt. To unwind and extend the floating cover, the cover is removed from Lifted by hand or by motor or swiveled upwards so that the of the Winding shaft unwound cover on the free water surface of the Can get to the pool and cover the entire surface of the pool Swimming pool floats over the water surface.

Zur Wartung der Abdeckvorrichtung wird der Wasserstand im Schwimmbecken nur soweit abgesenkt, dass er etwas unterhalb der Oberkante der Zwischenwand zwischen Schacht und Schwimmbecken liegt, so dass dadurch der Schacht vom Wasser des Schwimmbeckens nicht länger erreicht werden kann. Zum Beispiel über einen vorzugsweise absperrbaren Ablauf am Schachtboden kann dann der Schacht vollständig entleert und trockengelegt werden, um alle erforderlichen Wartungsarbeiten an der Abdeckung und Wickelwelle durchführen zu können.For maintenance of the cover device, the water level in the swimming pool is only lowered so far that it is slightly below the upper edge of the partition Shaft and swimming pool, so that the shaft from the water of the Swimming pool can no longer be reached. For example about one The shaft can then be completely shut off, preferably at the bottom of the shaft be emptied and drained to perform all required maintenance on the To be able to carry out cover and winding shaft.

    • Wie in Fig. 1 gezeigt ist, ist zwischen einem Schwimmbecken 1 und einer Überflutungsrinne 7, vorzugsweise längs der Breitseite eines rechteckigen Schwimmbeckens ein Schacht 4 vorgesehen, in dem eine Abwickelwelle 3 gelagert ist, auf der eine schwimmfähige Abdeckung 2, wie z.B. ein Rollladen oder eine Folie, aufgewickelt ist. Der Schacht 4 und das Schwimmbecken 1 sind über eine Zwischenwand 6 abgetrennt, deren Oberkante jedoch niedriger als die Oberkante der Schwimmbeckenwände, d.h. der Schwimmbeckenränder ist. Die das Schwimmbecken 1 allseitig umgebenden Überflutungsrinnen 7, 7' sind in üblicher Weise ausgebildet und in ein hier nicht gezeigtes Wasserspülsystem des Schwimmbeckens integriert. Auch der Schacht 4 weist ebenso wie die Überflutungsrinnen 7, 7' Wasserabläufe 8 auf, die zumindest teilweise absperrbar sind. As shown in Fig. 1, is between a swimming pool 1 and one Flooding channel 7, preferably along the broad side of a rectangular A shaft 4 is provided in the swimming pool, in which an unwinding shaft 3 is mounted, on which a floatable cover 2, e.g. a roller shutter or a film, is wound up. The shaft 4 and the swimming pool 1 are one Partition 6 separated, the upper edge, however, lower than the upper edge of the Pool walls, i.e. the pool edge is. The swimming pool 1 Flooding channels 7, 7 'surrounding on all sides are formed in a conventional manner and in integrated a water flushing system of the swimming pool, not shown here. Also the Shaft 4, like the flood channels 7, 7 ', has water outlets 8 which are at least partially lockable.

    Die Oberseite des Schachtes 4 ist mit einem z.B. gitterrostförmig ausgebildeten Deckel 5 abgedeckt, der über ein Scharnier 10 an der Rückwand des Schachtes schwenkbar angelenkt sein kann. Der Deckel 5 stützt sich an seinem dem Schwimmbecken zugewandten Rand über Stützen 5b auf der Oberkante der Zwischenwand 6 ab.The top of the shaft 4 is e.g. Grid-shaped cover 5 covered, which can be pivoted via a hinge 10 on the rear wall of the shaft can be articulated. The lid 5 is supported on the swimming pool facing edge over supports 5b on the upper edge of the partition 6.

    Obwohl dieses hier nicht gezeigt ist, kann der Deckel 5 auch von Hand zu öffnen bzw. abnehmbar ausgebildet sein, wozu dann bei größeren Breiten des Schwimmbeckens 1 der Deckel vorzugsweise in Einzelelemente unterteilt ist, die einfach und ohne großen Kraftaufwand zu handhaben sind.Although this is not shown here, the lid 5 can also be opened by hand or be designed to be removable, for which purpose then with larger widths of the swimming pool 1 the lid is preferably divided into individual elements that are simple and without large Force must be handled.

    Wie dieses in Fig. 2 schematisch gezeigt ist, ist der im Betriebszustand des Schwimmbeckens mit Wasser gefüllte Schacht 4 mit einem trockenen Antriebschacht 9 verbunden, der einen motorischen Antrieb für die Wickelwelle 3 aufnimmt. Obwohl dieses in Fig. 2 nicht gezeigt ist, kann sich die an den Längsseiten des Schwimmbeckens 1 befindende Überflutungsrinne 7' über diesen Antriebsschacht 9 hinweg erstrecken, um mit den sich an den Breitseiten des Schwimmbeckens befindenden Überflutungsrinnen 7 verbunden zu werden.As this is shown schematically in Fig. 2, the is in the operating state of the Pool 4 filled with water with a dry drive shaft 9 connected, which receives a motor drive for the winding shaft 3. Even though this is not shown in Fig. 2, the on the long sides of the Swimming pool 1 located flood channel 7 'over this drive shaft 9th Extend to the ones on the broad sides of the pool located flood channels 7 to be connected.

    In Fig. 3 ist eine modifizierte Ausführungsform der Abdeckvorrichtung gezeigt, bei der der zu öffnende Deckel 5 nur einen geringen Teil der Oberseite des Schachtes 4 abdeckt, während der größte Teil der Oberseite des Schachtes 4 durch einen stationären Deckelteil 5a abgedeckt ist. Der hier nur kleine schwenkbare Deckel 5 ist über ein Scharnier 10a an dem stationären Deckelteil 5a in bekannter Weise angelenkt, um von Hand oder motorisch geöffnet und geschlossen zu werden.3 shows a modified embodiment of the covering device in which the lid 5 to be opened only a small part of the top of the shaft 4 covers, while most of the top of the shaft 4 by a stationary Cover part 5a is covered. The only small pivotable cover 5 is over a Hinge 10a is articulated to the stationary cover part 5a in a known manner in order to To be opened and closed manually or by motor.

    In der geöffneten Stellung des Deckels 5 kann die von der Wickelwelle 3 abgewickelte schwimmfähige Abdeckung 2 aus dem Schacht in das Schwimmbecken 1 hineingeführt und dann auf der Wasseroberfläche schwimmend über das gesamte Schwimmbecken ausgefahren werden. Beim Öffnen der Abdeckung erfolgt dieser Vorgang bei geöffnetem Deckel 5 in analoger Weise.In the open position of the cover 5, the one unwound from the winding shaft 3 floatable cover 2 out of the shaft into the swimming pool 1 and then floating on the water surface across the entire pool be extended. When opening the cover, this process takes place with the cover open Cover 5 in an analogous manner.

    Zur Wartung der Abdeckvorrichtung und insbesondere der Abdeckung und der Wickelwelle 3 in dem Schacht 4 wird der Wasserstand im Schwimmbecken 1 nur geringfügig abgesenkt, bis er unterhalb der Oberkante der Zwischenwand 6 liegt. Dann wird der Schacht 4 vorzugsweise über den absperrbaren Wasserablauf 8 entleert, so dass Abdeckung und Wickelwelle zu ihren Wartungsarbeiten trockengelegt sind. For maintenance of the cover device and in particular the cover and the Winding shaft 3 in the shaft 4, the water level in the swimming pool 1 is only slightly lowered until it lies below the upper edge of the intermediate wall 6. Then the shaft 4 is preferably emptied via the lockable water outlet 8, so that the cover and the winding shaft are drained for their maintenance work.

    Der Schacht 4 der Abdeckvorrichtung kann zusammen mit seinem Antriebsschacht 9 als Baueinheit vorgefertigt werden und dann ggf. auch bei einem bereits vorhandenen Schwimmbecken installiert werden.The shaft 4 of the cover device can be used together with its drive shaft 9 Unit are prefabricated and then possibly also with an existing one Swimming pools to be installed.

    Andererseits kann insbesondere beim Neubau eines Schwimmbeckens der Schacht 4 auch durch Einbau der Zwischenwand 6 gebildet werden.On the other hand, shaft 4 can also be formed by installing the intermediate wall 6.

    Wie z.B. aus Fig. 1 ohne weiteres zu erkennen ist, wird das gesamte Wasservolumen im Schacht 4 in das Wasserspülsystem des Schwimmbeckens integriert, wozu zusätzlich zu den Wasserabläufen 8 auch noch Wasserzuläufe in den Schacht 4 hinein vorgesehen werden können, die hier nicht dargestellt sind.Such as. 1 is easily recognizable, the total water volume in Shaft 4 integrated in the water flushing system of the swimming pool, in addition to the water outlets 8 are also provided with water inlets into the shaft 4 can be, which are not shown here.

    In Fig. 4 ist in vergrößerter Schnittdarstellung eine weitere Modifizierung der in Fig. 3 gezeigten Ausführungsform zu erkennen, in der die Deckelkonstruktion im stationären Teil einen Sturzbalken 5" umfasst, der sich vorzugsweise über die gesamte Breite des Schwimmbeckens erstreckt und z.B. an seinen jeweiligen Enden im Bereich der Seitenwände des Schwimmbeckens 1 abgestützt bzw. gelagert ist. Der übrige stationäre Teil ist durch gitterförmige Abdeckelemente 5"' gebildet, die zwischen Sturzbalken 5" und der dem Schwimmbecken abgewandten Seitenwand des Schachtes 4 in hier nicht näher dargestellter Weise angeordnet sind. Insbesondere bei größeren Breitenabmessungen eines Schwimmbeckens kann der Sturzbalken 5" zusätzlich zu seinen Endlagem oder auch ausschließlich über hier nur schematisch angedeutete Längsstreben 11 an der abgewandten Seite des Schachtes 4 oder einer entsprechenden Begrenzungswand des Schwimmbeckens 1 gelagert werden.FIG. 4 shows a further modification of the one in FIG. 3 in an enlarged sectional illustration shown embodiment can be seen in the lid construction in the stationary Part of a lintel beam 5 ", which preferably extends over the entire width of the Stretches and e.g. at its respective ends in the area of the Side walls of the swimming pool 1 is supported or stored. The rest stationary Part is formed by grid-shaped cover elements 5 "', which are between the lintel beams 5" and the side wall of the shaft 4 facing away from the swimming pool in here are arranged in a manner shown. Especially with larger ones The width of a swimming pool can be increased by 5 " its final positions or exclusively via only schematically indicated here Longitudinal struts 11 on the opposite side of the shaft 4 or a corresponding one Boundary wall of the swimming pool 1 are stored.
