Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a space for spreading and evacuating the ashes of incineration of a deceased or dead living creature then incinerated for a public or private cinerary site.
  • French law states that immediately after the cremation of a body, the ashes must be collected in a funeral urn which is given to the person who provided the funeral.
  • This urn can be, after authorization of the mayor, buried in a burial place in a columbarium box, in the cemetery's cemetery site or sealed on a funerary monument inside the cemetery.
  • the ashes can also be scattered in a specially arranged space of the cemetery.

Description

La présente invention concerne un espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres d'incinération d'un être vivant décédé ou mort puis incinéré pour un site cinéraire public ou privé.The present invention relates to a space for spreading and evacuating the ashes of incineration of a deceased or dead living creature then incinerated for a public or private cinerary site.

Actuellement, en matière d'inhumation et de crémation, un nombre croissant de personnes expriment la volonté de choisir la solution de la crémation. Ceci conduit à un nombre croisant de crémations. A cet effet, les services autour de cet acte se sont organisés et les moyens de crémation se sont développés et étendus.Currently, in terms of burial and cremation, a growing number of people express the desire to choose the solution of cremation. This leads to a crisscrossing number of cremations. For this purpose, the services around this act have been organized and the means of cremation have been developed and extended.

Quelques unes des possibilités de réaliser des espaces d'épondage et d'évacuation de cendres d'incinération d'un être vivant décédé ou mort sont connues des documents JP 111141189 , FRA 2770557 , JP 2000129959 et JP 2007177582 .Some of the possibilities of making spaces for the filling and disposal of cremation ashes of dead or dead living beings are known from the documents JP 111141189 , FRA 2770557 , JP 2000129959 and JP 2007177582 .

Les législations funéraires ont modifié dans certains pays dont la France les dispositions relatives entre autres à la destination des cendres du défunt après la crémation. En effet, il n'est plus possible dorénavant de fractionner les cendres pour les remettre à plusieurs personnes, de conserver l'urne dans un domicile, de mélanger les cendres à la terre de sa propre concession ou d'inhumer l'urne dans une propriété privée, même s'il reste possible de disperser les cendres en milieu naturel, sauf sur les voies publiques, après déclaration auprès du maire de la commune.In certain countries, including France, funerary legislation has amended the provisions relating, among other things, to the destination of the deceased's ashes after cremation. Indeed, it is no longer possible to split the ashes to give them to several people, to keep the urn in a home, to mix the ashes to the ground of his own concession or to burial the urn in a private property, although it remains possible to disperse the ashes in the natural environment, except on public roads, after declaration to the mayor of the municipality.

La loi française précise qu'aussitôt après la crémation d'un corps, les cendres doivent être recueillies dans une urne cinéraire qui est remise à la personne qui a pourvu aux funérailles. Cette urne peut être, après autorisation du maire, inhumée dans une sépulture, déposée dans une case de columbarium, dans le site cinéraire du cimetière ou scellée sur un monument funéraire à l'intérieur du cimetière. Les cendres peuvent aussi être dispersées dans un espace spécialement aménagé du cimetière.French law states that immediately after the cremation of a body, the ashes must be collected in a funeral urn which is given to the person who provided the funeral. This urn can be, after authorization of the mayor, buried in a burial place in a columbarium box, in the cemetery's cemetery site or sealed on a funerary monument inside the cemetery. The ashes can also be scattered in a specially arranged space of the cemetery.

Cet espace de dispersion, encore appelé « Jardin du Souvenir », est dédié à la dispersion des cendres et à leur évacuation. Il a le double objectif de permettre l'évacuation des cendres et la conservation du souvenir.This space of dispersion, also called "Garden of Remembrance", is dedicated to the dispersion of ashes and their evacuation. It has the dual purpose of allowing the evacuation of ashes and the preservation of memory.

Pour assurer l'évacuation des cendres, les espaces de dispersion actuels sont habituellement des espaces délimités et composés de galets ou de rocailles, posés directement sur le sol ou sur une grille métallique galvanisée ou sur un caillebotis. Les cendres sont dispersées sur les galets ou les rocailles et s'infiltrent dans les interstices.To ensure the evacuation of ashes, the current dispersal spaces are usually delimited spaces and composed of pebbles or rock gardens, placed directly on the ground or on a galvanized metal grid or on a grating. The ashes are scattered on the pebbles or rocks and infiltrate into the interstices.

Pour assurer la conservation du souvenir, une stèle ou un monument du souvenir est généralement prévu à proximité immédiate de l'espace de dispersion, permettant de graver les épitaphes des défunts dont les cendres ont été dispersées. De même, on peut également prévoir une table de cérémonie, permettant le dépôt momentané de l'urne lors d'un dernier discours et rassemblement précédant la dispersion et un ou plusieurs bancs permettant le repos et le recueillement des proches et des visiteurs.To ensure the preservation of the memory, a stele or monument of remembrance is usually provided in the immediate vicinity of the dispersal space, allowing to engrave the epitaphs of the deceased whose ashes were scattered. Similarly, there is also a ceremony table, allowing the momentary deposit of the urn during a last speech and gathering before the dispersion and one or more benches for the rest and the gathering of relatives and visitors.

Ainsi, un espace de dispersion est généralement un lieu dédié au souvenir et au recueillement, qui doit respecter à la fois les dernières volontés du défunt et la sensibilité de ses proches. On s'attend ainsi à ce qu'un espace de dispersion soit propre et que personne ne puisse toucher les cendres mortuaires. Il faut également noter que la vue de cendres mortuaires peut être traumatisante pour certaines personnes, dont celles particulièrement sensibles.Thus, a space of dispersion is generally a place dedicated to memory and meditation, which must respect both the last wishes of the deceased and the sensitivity of his relatives. It is expected that a dispersal space will be clean and that nobody can touch the mortal ashes. It should also be noted that the sight of mortuary ashes can be traumatic for some people, including those particularly sensitive.

Or, avec les espaces de dispersion actuels, les cendres ne pénètrent pas toutes et intégralement entre les galets ou les rocailles, et une partie des cendres dispersées demeurent sur ceux-ci. Non seulement les cendres restent visibles, mais elles sont également susceptibles d'être emportées par le vent. Leur caractère volatile est une cause de pollution et de dégradation de la propreté du lieu et de son esthétique. Ce type de dispersion des cendres ne satisfait pas toutes les familles, qui peuvent trouver un caractère sacrilège dans la dispersion par le vent des cendres du défunt au lieu d'être rassemblées en un même endroit et dans le caractère public et accessible de leur présence.However, with the current dispersion spaces, the ashes do not penetrate fully and completely between the pebbles or rock gardens, and some of the dispersed ashes remain on them. Not only are the ashes visible, but they are also likely to be blown away by the wind. Their volatile nature is a cause of pollution and degradation of the cleanliness of the place and its aesthetics. This type of ash dispersal does not satisfy all families, who may find sacrilege in the wind dispersal of the ashes of the deceased instead of being gathered in one place and in the public and accessible nature of their presence.

Le but de l'invention est de prévoir un espace de dispersion dans lequel les cendres ne restent pas en surface après dispersion mais pénètrent toutes entre les galets ou rocailles sans qu'elles soient susceptibles d'être ultérieurement touchées, maculées ou emportées par le vent.The object of the invention is to provide a dispersion space in which the ashes do not remain on the surface after dispersion but penetrate all between the pebbles or rockeries without being likely to be subsequently affected, stained or carried away by the wind .

Pour résoudre ce problème technique l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres d'incinération selon l'invention comprend :

  • une partie hors sol comprenant un dispositif d'arrosage, un support d'épandage et une bordure de délimitation délimitant un volume d'épandage au dessus du support d'épandage, lequel volume d'épandage est au moins partiellement occupé par un garnissage, le dispositif d'arrosage étant prévu pour arroser tout le volume d'épandage par le dessus, et
  • une partie en sol comprenant une couche d'infiltration surmontée par un coffrage sans fond dont les parois délimitent une fosse qui ne laisse pas passer les cendres latéralement dans le sol mais uniquement vers le bas.
In order to solve this technical problem, the space for spreading and discharging ashes of incineration according to the invention comprises:
  • an aboveground part comprising a watering device, a spreading support and a boundary delimiting a spreading volume above the spreading support, which spreading volume is at least partially occupied by a lining, the a watering device being provided for watering the entire spreading volume from above, and
  • a part in soil comprising an infiltration layer surmounted by a bottomless formwork whose walls delimit a pit which does not do not let the ashes fall into the soil but only downwards.

Ainsi, l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres d'incinération d'un défunt comporte un dispositif d'arrosage par eau qui arrose la surface où sont dispersées les cendres de sorte que celles-ci s'écoulent avec l'eau à travers les galets ou les rocailles. Avec l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation selon l'invention, les cendres ne restent plus en surface, ne sont plus visibles et sont entraînées dans leur totalité par écoulement dans un volume de réception adapté à leur élimination. En outre, après dispersion des cendres d'un défunt, c'est la famille qui peut actionner elle-même le dispositif d'arrosage par eau pour évacuer les cendres, de sorte qu'avec le sentiment d'une disparition douce et contrôlée, elle puisse faire son deuil par cette action symbolique pouvant être perçue comme une purification.Thus, the space for spreading and discharging the incineration ash of a deceased has a water-spraying device that sprinkles the surface where the ashes are dispersed so that the latter flow with the water. water through the pebbles or rock gardens. With the spreading and evacuation space according to the invention, the ashes are no longer on the surface, are no longer visible and are all entrained by flow in a receiving volume adapted to their disposal. In addition, after dispersion of the ashes of a deceased, it is the family who can operate the watering device itself to evacuate the ashes, so that with the feeling of a soft and controlled disappearance, she can mourn this symbolic action that can be perceived as a purification.

Le support d'épandage 4 a pour but de permettre le passage de l'eau 8 et des cendres 9 tout en retenant le garnissage 6. Il s'agit préférentiellement d'une grille 10, bien que tout autre moyen analogue puisse être employé. Cette grille 10 est de préférence réalisée en matière inoxydable. Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le support d'épandage 4 est constitué d'une grille 10 en acier galvanisé d'un maillage de 30 x 30 mm.The spreading support 4 is intended to allow the passage of water 8 and ash 9 while retaining the lining 6. It is preferably a grid 10, although any other similar means can be used. This grid 10 is preferably made of stainless material. According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the spreading support 4 consists of a grid 10 of galvanized steel with a mesh of 30 x 30 mm.

La bordure de délimitation 5 a pour but de former une délimitation périmétrique définissant un volume d'épandage 11 au-dessus du support d'épandage 4, lequel volume est prévu pour être au moins partiellement occupé par le garnissage 6. C'est dans ce volume d'épandage 11 que les cendres funéraires 9 sont dispersées par épandage. Constituant le périmètre de la partie visible de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation 1 de l'invention, la bordure de délimitation 5 apporte un effet décoratif. A cet effet, elle présente une conformation et un aspect esthétiques. La bordure de délimitation 5 se présente de préférence sous la forme d'une margelle 12 ou de bordures en pierre, par exemple en granit ou en marbre, ou en tout autre matériau habituellement utilisé pour les sites funéraires. La bordure de délimitation 5 peut être monobloc ou constituée de plusieurs éléments.The delimiting border 5 is intended to form a perimetric boundary defining a spreading volume 11 above the spreading support 4, which volume is intended to be at least partially occupied by the lining 6. It is in this case that spreading volume 11 funerary ashes 9 are dispersed by spreading. Constituting the perimeter of the visible part of the spreading and evacuation space 1 of the invention, the delimiting border 5 provides a decorative effect. For this purpose, it has a conformation and an aesthetic appearance. The delimiting border 5 is preferably in the form of a lip 12 or stone borders, for example granite or marble, or any other material usually used for funeral sites. The bounding border 5 may be one-piece or consist of several elements.

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention représenté sur les figures, le support d'épandage 4 et la bordure de délimitation 5 sont de forme rectangulaire et définissent un volume d'épandage 11 présentant une surface d'environ 7 m2. L'homme du métier peut bien entendu envisager d'autres formes et d'autres dimensions pour ces éléments de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres de 1 l'invention.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention shown in the figures, the spreading support 4 and the delimiting border 5 are of rectangular shape and define a spreading volume 11 having an area of about 7 m 2 . Those skilled in the art can of course consider other shapes and dimensions for these elements of the spreading and ash disposal space of the invention.

Le volume d'épandage 11 est représenté de dessus sur la figure 5. Délimité par la bordure de délimitation 5 et le support d'épandage 4, il est au moins partiellement occupé par le garnissage 6 qui a pour but de masquer le support d'épandage 4 et de présenter une surface d'épandage pour les cendres 9. Elément visible en surface de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 de l'invention, le garnissage 6 apporte lui aussi un aspect esthétique soigné. Le garnissage 6 se présente préférentiellement sous la forme de galets 13, de rocailles ou analogues, posés directement sur le support d'épandage 4 dans le volume délimité par la bordure de délimitation 5. Les galets 13 ou rocailles présentent préférentiellement des formes rondes qui favorisent l'écoulement par gravité des cendres 9 qui sont répandues sur ceux-ci. Le garnissage 6 ne doit pas passer à travers le support d'épandage 4, aussi le diamètre des galets 13 ou rocailles doit être supérieur à celui des mailles du support d'épandage 4. Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le garnissage 6 se présente sous la forme de galets 13 de marbre blanc de calibre 60/100.The spreading volume 11 is represented from above on the figure 5 . Delimited by the boundary 5 and the spreading support 4, it is at least partially occupied by the lining 6 which aims to hide the spreading support 4 and to present a spreading surface for ashes 9. Element visible on the surface of the spreading and ash removal space 1 of the invention, the lining 6 also brings a neat aesthetic appearance. The lining 6 is preferably in the form of rollers 13, rockeries or the like, placed directly on the spreading support 4 in the volume defined by the delimiting border 5. The rollers 13 or rockeries preferentially have round shapes that favor the gravity flow of ashes 9 which are spread on them. The packing 6 must not pass through the spreading support 4, so the diameter of the rollers 13 or rockeries must be greater than that of the mesh of the spreading support 4. According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the packing 6 is in the form of rollers 13 of white marble 60/100 caliber.

Sur les figures 2 et 5, le garnissage 6 est seulement partiellement représenté afin de voir le support d'épandage 4 situé en dessous. En utilisation, il est clair que la totalité du support d'épandage 4 est généralement recouvert par le garnissage 6, comme cela est représenté de profil sur la figure 4, qui présente le support d'épandage 4, la bordure de délimitation 5 et le garnissage 6 à l'état dissocié.On the figures 2 and 5 , the lining 6 is only partially shown in order to see the spreading support 4 located below. In use, it is clear that the entire spreading support 4 is generally covered by the lining 6, as is shown in profile on the figure 4 , which has the spreading support 4, the delimiting border 5 and the lining 6 in the dissociated state.

Le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention est prévu pour arroser le garnissage 6 du volume d'épandage 11 avec de l'eau 8 afin d'entraîner les cendres 9 par écoulement vers le bas à travers le garnissage 6 et le support d'épandage 4. Un autre liquide pourrait être utilisé à cet effet, mais il s'agit d'une solution peu économique et potentiellement nocive. Aussi, bien que le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention puisse être adapté à tout autre liquide, nous ne considérerons que le cas de l'utilisation d'eau comme liquide d'arrosage dans la suite de ce descriptif. Bien entendu, l'eau peut contenir des additifs en solution pour par exemple apporter un parfum adapté et garder le garnissage dans un état correct de propreté.The watering device 7 of the invention is provided for watering the lining 6 of the spreading volume 11 with water 8 so as to drive the ashes 9 downwards through the lining 6 and the support Spreading 4. Another liquid could be used for this purpose, but it is an uneconomical and potentially harmful solution. Also, although the watering device 7 of the invention can be adapted to any other liquid, we will consider only the case of the use of water as a watering liquid in the following of this description. Of course, the water may contain additives in solution for example to provide a suitable perfume and keep the lining in a proper state of cleanliness.

Le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention comprend préférentiellement une ou plusieurs buses d'arrosage 14, un dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 et un dispositif d'actionnement 16, ce dispositif d'actionnement 16 pouvant être commandé à distance.The watering device 7 of the invention preferably comprises one or more watering nozzles 14, a hydraulic supply device 15 and an actuating device 16, this actuating device 16 being remotely controllable.

Les buses d'arrosage 14 sont prévues en surface pour arroser le garnissage 6 par le dessus lorsque le dispositif d'actionnement 16 est déclenché. Elles se présentent préférentiellement sous la forme de petites buses d'arrosage montées sur la bordure de délimitation 5 et régulièrement espacées sur le pourtour de celle-ci. Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention comprend sept buses d'arrosage 14 disposées sur le pourtour interne de la bordure de délimitation 5. L'orientation et l'ouverture des buses d'arrosage 14 sont préférentiellement choisies pour asperger sensiblement la totalité de la surface supérieure du garnissage 6 par le dessus, par exemple au moyen d'une figure d'arrosage en forme de cloche. Ainsi, lorsque le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention est actionné, toutes les cendres 9 présentes sur le garnissage 6 sont emportées par le ruissellement dû à l'écoulement de l'eau 8 à travers le support d'épandage 4.The sprinkler nozzles 14 are provided on the surface to sprinkle the packing 6 from above when the actuating device 16 is triggered. They are preferentially in the form of small watering nozzles mounted on the delimitation border 5 and regularly spaced around the periphery thereof. According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the watering device 7 of the invention comprises seven watering nozzles 14 disposed on the inner periphery of the delimiting border 5. The orientation and the opening of the water nozzles watering 14 are preferably chosen to spray substantially all of the upper surface of the lining 6 from above, for example by means of a bell-shaped watering pattern. Thus, when the sprinkler device 7 of the invention is actuated, all the ash 9 present on the lining 6 is carried away by the runoff due to the flow of water 8 through the spreading support 4.

Le dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 a pour but d'alimenter les buses d'arrosage 14 en eau 8 sous pression. Il comprend préférentiellement une arrivée d'eau 17 et au moins un robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18, ainsi qu'un réseau de conduites (non représenté) permettant d'alimenter chaque buse d'arrosage 14. L'arrivée d'eau 17 peut être une arrivée d'eau 17 raccordée sur le réseau communal, ou comporter une pompe qui alimente le dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 en eau 8 sous pression à partir d'une réserve d'eau naturelle ou artificielle.The hydraulic feeding device 15 is intended to supply the watering nozzles 14 with water 8 under pressure. It preferably comprises a water inlet 17 and at least one water inlet valve 18, and a network of pipes (not shown) for feeding each watering nozzle 14. The water inlet 17 may be a water inlet 17 connected to the municipal network, or comprise a pump which supplies the hydraulic supply device 15 with water 8 under pressure from a natural or artificial water supply.

Les conduites (non représentées) alimentant les buses d'arrosage 14 peuvent par exemple être en partie logées dans la bordure de délimitation 5, ce qui permet de les rendre invisibles de l'extérieur. L'homme du métier pourra néanmoins faire passer ces conduites par tout autre endroit adapté.The ducts (not shown) supplying the watering nozzles 14 may for example be partly housed in the delimiting border 5, which makes them invisible from the outside. Those skilled in the art may nevertheless pass these pipes by any other suitable place.

Les éléments techniques les plus fragiles du dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15, peuvent par exemple être abrités. Ils peuvent être logés en surface dans un boîtier ou être enterrés dans un caisson auquel on accède en surface au moyen d'une ou plusieurs trappes d'accès 19. Cette dernière solution, représentée sur les figures 2 et 3, est préférée en ce qu'elle n'encombre pas l'espace autour de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 avec des éléments disgracieux, les trappes d'accès 19 pouvant par exemple être dissimulées sous du gravier, du sable ou autre.The most fragile technical elements of the hydraulic supply device 15 may for example be housed. They can be housed on the surface in a housing or be buried in a box which is accessed on the surface by means of one or more access hatches 19. This last solution, represented on the figures 2 and 3 is preferred in that it does not clutter the space around the spreading and discharging space of the ashes 1 with unsightly elements, the access hatches 19 can for example be hidden under gravel, sand or whatever.

Afin de garantir une utilisation de l'installation toute l'année, le dispositif d'arrosage 7 de l'invention comprend un dispositif de purge 20 sur le dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 qui permet de maintenir celui-ci hors gel en vidant par exemple les buses d'arrosage 14, les conduites et l'au moins un robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 automatiquement après chaque utilisation. A cet effet, on installe, en aval du robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 et en amont des conduites reliant ce robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 aux buses d'arrosage 14 en surface, une vanne passive 21 reliée à un drain, vanne 21 qui se ferme lorsque la pression s'exerce dans le tuyau reliant le robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 aux buses d'arrosage 14 (au dessus de 1 bar par exemple), et s'ouvre automatiquement lorsque l'arrivée d'eau 18 est coupée (pression résiduelle de 100 mbar environ due au poids de la colonne d'eau résiduelle entre le robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 et les buses d'arrosage 14, pour une conduite de 1 m).In order to guarantee use of the installation all year round, the watering device 7 of the invention comprises a purge device 20 on the hydraulic supply device 15 which makes it possible to maintain this frost free by emptying for example the sprinkler nozzles 14, the pipes and the at least one water valve 18 automatically after each use. For this purpose, downstream of the water inlet valve 18 and upstream of the pipes connecting this water supply tap 18 to the watering nozzles 14 at the surface, a passive valve 21 connected to a drain is installed. , valve 21 which closes when the pressure exerted in the pipe connecting the water inlet valve 18 to the spray nozzles 14 (above 1 bar for example), and opens automatically when the arrival water 18 is cut (residual pressure of about 100 mbar due to the weight of the residual water column between the water inlet valve 18 and the spray nozzles 14, for a pipe of 1 m).

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, une première trappe d'accès 19 permet d'accéder au robinet d'arrivée d'eau et une seconde trappe d'accès 19 permet d'accéder à la vanne passive 21 pour le verrouillage hors gel.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, a first access door 19 provides access to the water inlet valve and a second access door 19 provides access to the passive valve 21 for locking frost free.

Au moins un robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 du dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 peut être commandé à distance par le dispositif d'actionnement 16. Ce dernier se présente préférentiellement sous la forme d'une borne 22 située en surface à proximité immédiate du volume d'épandage 11 et comportant un bouton poussoir 23, l'homme du métier pouvant envisager tout autre moyen analogue permettant d'actionner le dispositif d'arrosage 7 depuis la surface. Lorsqu'il est sollicité, le dispositif d'actionnement 16 commande le robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 en ouverture pour alimenter les buses d'arrosage 14 en eau 8 sous pression et asperger le volume d'épandage 11.At least one water inlet valve 18 of the hydraulic supply device 15 can be remotely controlled by the actuating device 16. The latter is preferably in the form of a terminal 22 located on the surface in the immediate vicinity. spreading volume 11 and comprising a push button 23, the skilled person may consider any other similar means for operating the watering device 7 from the surface. When urged, the actuating device 16 controls the water inlet valve 18 in opening to supply the watering nozzles 14 with water 8 under pressure and to spray the spreading volume 11.

Selon une variante de l'invention, on peut également envisager la commande en ouverture et en fermeture pneumatique du robinet d'arrivée d'eau 18 du dispositif d'alimentation hydraulique 15 au moyen d'une minuterie, ce qui permet d'arroser périodiquement le volume d'épandage 11 et/ou de gérer de façon précise la durée de l'arrosage pour pouvoir évacuer toutes les cendres 9 par ruissellement.According to a variant of the invention, it is also possible to control the opening and pneumatic closing of the water inlet valve 18 of the hydraulic supply device 15 by means of a timer, which makes it possible to water periodically the spreading volume 11 and / or to precisely manage the duration of the watering to be able to evacuate all ash 9 by runoff.

Ces deux solutions peuvent bien entendu coexister, de sorte qu'un utilisateur puisse déclencher manuellement l'arrosage en plus d'un arrosage automatique périodique.These two solutions can of course coexist, so that a user can manually trigger watering in addition to periodic automatic watering.

Pour le dispositif d'actionnement 16 situé en surface, on préfère un interrupteur du type bouton poussoir 23 commandant l'arrêt après relâchement afin d'éviter un éventuel gaspillage d'eau et une éventuelle inondation de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1.For the actuating device 16 located on the surface, a push-button switch 23 controlling the shut-off after release is preferred in order to avoid a possible waste of water and a possible flooding of the spreading and ash disposal area 1.

De même, le dispositif d'actionnement 16 situé en surface est préférentiellement intégré à un support 24 ou monté sur celui-ci. Ce support 24 se présente par exemple sous la forme d'une structure en surface qui s'intègre dans l'esthétique d'ensemble de la bordure de délimitation 5. Ainsi, selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, ce support 24 se présente sous la forme d'une borne 22 située à proximité immédiate de la margelle en pierre 12 de la bordure de délimitation 5 et fabriquée dans la même matière que celle-ci.Similarly, the actuating device 16 located on the surface is preferably integrated in a support 24 or mounted on it. This support 24 is for example in the form of a surface structure that integrates into the overall aesthetic of the bounding border 5. Thus, according to the preferred embodiment of the invention, this support 24 is in the form of a terminal 22 located in the immediate vicinity of the stone lip 12 of the delimitation border 5 and made of the same material as it.

Selon une variante de l'invention, on peut également envisager d'intégrer le dispositif d'actionnement 16 situé en surface dans un galet 13 ou une rocaille constituant le garnissage 6, ce galet 13 ou cette rocaille étant alors préférentiellement immobilisé(e) dans le volume d'épandage 11.According to a variant of the invention, it is also conceivable to integrate the actuating device 16 situated on the surface in a roller 13 or a rock constituting the packing 6, this roller 13 or this rock being then preferentially immobilized in the spreading volume 11.

L'alimentation électrique des différents moyens de l'invention peut se faire de deux façons. La première consiste à utiliser un système classique d'alimentation directe, c'est-à-dire une alimentation électrique distribuée à partir d'un compteur électrique individuel ou d'une armoire technique. L'autre solution consiste à utiliser un panneau solaire photovoltaïque 25, qui convertit la lumière en électricité. Dans ce cas, le panneau solaire 25 est préférentiellement plat et d'une surface approchant le mètre carré pour faciliter et optimiser la pose, qui peut se faire sur un support 26 fixé au sol ou sur des systèmes mobiles de poursuite du soleil appelés « trackers ».The power supply of the various means of the invention can be done in two ways. The first is to use a conventional direct power system, that is to say a power supply distributed from an individual electric meter or a cabinet. The other solution is to use a photovoltaic solar panel 25, which converts light into electricity. In this case, the solar panel 25 is preferably flat and of a surface approaching the square meter to facilitate and optimize the installation, which can be done on a support 26 fixed to the ground or on mobile tracking systems called "trackers ".

La seconde solution, bien qu'encombrante et plus onéreuse, est avantageuse en ce qu'elle permet l'installation d'un espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 selon l'invention en un lieu dépourvu d'alimentation électrique.The second solution, although congesting and more expensive, is advantageous in that it allows the installation of a space for spreading and disposal of ash 1 according to the invention in a place devoid of power supply.

La partie en sol 3 de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 de l'invention comprend principalement un coffrage 27 sans fond délimitant une fosse 28 et une couche d'infiltration 29.The floor portion 3 of the spreading and ash disposal space 1 of the invention mainly comprises a bottomless formwork 27 delimiting a pit 28 and an infiltration layer 29.

Le support d'épandage 4, la bordure de délimitation 5 et le garnissage 6 de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 de l'invention sont situés au-dessus d'une fosse 28 creusée dans le sol 30. Cette fosse 28 est préférentiellement délimitée par un coffrage 27.The spreading support 4, the boundary 5 and the lining 6 of the spreading and ash disposal space 1 of the invention are located above a pit 28 dug in the ground 30. This pit 28 is preferably delimited by a formwork 27.

Le coffrage 27 est de préférence fabriqué en une matière qui laisse passer l'eau 8, mais pas les cendres 9.The formwork 27 is preferably made of a material which let the water 8 pass, but not the ashes 9.

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le coffrage 27 est réalisé en moellons ou parpaings de ciment 38 montés avec un mortier perméable et repose sur une assise 39, de préférence en béton, assurant sa stabilité à la manière de fondations.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the formwork 27 is made of rubble or cement blocks 38 mounted with a permeable mortar and rests on a seat 39, preferably made of concrete, ensuring its stability in the manner of foundations.

Ce coffrage 27 a pour but de canaliser l'écoulement de l'eau 8 et des cendres 9 vers la couche d'infiltration 29 située sous le coffrage 27 et constituant le fond de la fosse 28.This formwork 27 is intended to channel the flow of water 8 and ashes 9 to the infiltration layer 29 located under the formwork 27 and constituting the bottom of the pit 28.

Tout ou partie des faces internes 31 et/ou externes 32 du coffrage 27 peuvent être imperméables. En effet, on peut recouvrir la surface interne 31 et/ou externe 32 du coffrage 27 avec un enduit d'étanchéité 33. A cet effet, on peut utiliser du goudron, ou tout autre produit imperméabilisant adapté.All or part of the inner faces 31 and / or outer 32 of the formwork 27 may be impermeable. Indeed, it can cover the inner surface 31 and / or external 32 of the formwork 27 with a sealant 33. For this purpose, it is possible to use tar, or any other suitable waterproofing product.

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le coffrage 27 est divisé en trois parties successives 34, 35, 36, à savoir une partie supérieure 34 de coffrage, une partie intermédiaire 35 de coffrage et une partie inférieure 36 de coffrage.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the formwork 27 is divided into three successive parts 34, 35, 36, namely an upper part 34 of formwork, an intermediate part 35 of formwork and a lower part 36 of formwork.

La partie supérieure 34 de coffrage est celle située juste en dessous du support d'épandage 4, de la bordure de délimitation 5 et du garnissage 6 de l'espace d'épandage et d'évacuation des cendres 1 de l'invention. Sa face externe 32 est préférentiellement imperméabilisée afin d'être drainante pour l'intérieur du coffrage 27 et étanche pour l'extérieur afin que l'eau du sol 30 ne pénètre pas dans le coffrage 27. On obtient ainsi le drainage vertical, par les parois, du massif de cendres 9 accumulées à l'intérieur du coffrage 27. La granulométrie de cette paroi sert également à éviter que les cendres 9 ne passent dans le sol 30 latéralement. Elle est de préférence de l'ordre de 0,2 mm2.The upper formwork portion 34 is that located just below the spreading support 4, the boundary 5 and the lining 6 of the spreading and ash disposal space 1 of the invention. Its outer face 32 is preferably waterproofed so as to be draining for the interior of the formwork 27 and watertight for the outside so that the soil water 30 does not penetrate into the formwork 27. This gives the vertical drainage, by the The walls of the ash mass 9 accumulated inside the formwork 27. The particle size of this wall also serves to prevent the ashes 9 from passing into the soil 30 laterally. It is preferably of the order of 0.2 mm 2 .

La partie intermédiaire 35 de coffrage est celle directement située sous la partie supérieure 34 de coffrage. Préférentiellement, aucune de ses faces 31, 32 n'est imperméabilisée afin de définir une zone perméable à la fois latéralement et verticalement. Elle permet donc un drainage important du massif de cendres 9 de sorte que l'eau 8 ayant entraîné les cendres 9 par écoulement puisse être drainée hors du coffrage 27.The intermediate formwork portion 35 is that directly below the upper formwork portion 34. Preferably, none of its faces 31, 32 is waterproofed in order to define a permeable zone both laterally and vertically. It thus allows a large drainage of the ash mass 9 so that the water 8 having driven the ashes 9 by flow can be drained out of the formwork 27.

La partie inférieure 36 de coffrage est celle située directement sous la partie intermédiaire 35 de coffrage, juste au dessus de l'assise 39 en béton. Préférentiellement, les faces internes 31 et externes 32 de la partie inférieure 36 de coffrage sont imperméabilisées afin d'assurer le drainage du massif de cendres 9, uniquement par le bas cette fois. C'est alors la couche d'infiltration 29 située sous le coffrage 27 qui draine l'eau 8.The lower part 36 of formwork is that located directly under the intermediate portion 35 of formwork, just above the seat 39 of concrete. Preferably, the inner faces 31 and external 32 of the lower part 36 of formwork are waterproofed to ensure the drainage of the ash massif 9, only from below this time. It is then the infiltration layer 29 located under the formwork 27 which drains the water 8.

La couche d'infiltration 29 est de préférence constituée d'une matière pulvérulente 37 qui laisse passer l'eau 8 et qui permet la diffusion et la dégradation lente des cendres 9 à travers le sol 30. Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la couche d'infiltration 29 est constituée de tout-venant 37 de calibre 5/15. On peut également envisager d'utiliser une couche de gravier, de pierres concassées, de sable ou de toute autre matière analogue.The infiltration layer 29 is preferably made of a pulverulent material 37 which passes the water 8 and which allows the diffusion and the slow degradation of the ashes 9 through the soil 30. According to the preferred embodiment of the Invention, the infiltration layer 29 consists of 5/15 caliber all-comers 37. One can also consider using a layer of gravel, crushed stone, sand or any other similar material.

Selon le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, la partie supérieure 34 de coffrage s'étend sur une hauteur d'environ 80 cm, tout comme la partie intermédiaire 35 de coffrage, tandis que la partie inférieure 36 de coffrage s'étend sur une hauteur d'environ 40 cm et que la couche d'infiltration 29 s'étend sur une hauteur d'environ 15 cm.According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, the upper formwork portion 34 extends over a height of about 80 cm, as does the intermediate formwork portion 35, while the lower part 36 of formwork extends over a height of about 40 cm and that the infiltration layer 29 extends over a height of about 15 cm.

Les trois parties 34, 35, 36 du coffrage 27 apparaissent clairement sur la figure 6 qui est une vue en coupe de celui-ci sur laquelle les couches d'enduit d'étanchéité 33 sont représentées en trait épais pour plus de clarté.The three parts 34, 35, 36 of the formwork 27 appear clearly on the figure 6 which is a sectional view thereof on which the layers of sealant 33 are shown in thick lines for clarity.

Le coffrage 27 décrit permet de canaliser l'écoulement de l'eau 8 et des cendres 9 vers le bas afin que l'eau 8 des buses d'arrosage 14 entraine les cendres 9 au bas de la fosse 28, au plus près de la couche d'infiltration 29 qui va assurer l'élimination progressive des cendres 9 à travers la terre 30. Il est également prévu de faciliter l'évacuation de l'eau 8 à la fois vers le bas mais aussi latéralement à travers les parois du coffrage 27 afin d'éviter un engorgement de celui-ci et un débordement de l'eau 8 qui pourrait entraîner une partie du massif de cendre 9 hors du coffrage 27. L'évacuation de l'eau 8 hors du coffrage est représentée par des flèches blanches sur la figure 2.The formwork 27 described makes it possible to channel the flow of the water 8 and the ash 9 downwards so that the water 8 of the watering nozzles 14 entrains the ashes 9 at the bottom of the pit 28, as close as possible to the infiltration layer 29 which will ensure the gradual removal of ashes 9 through the earth 30. It is also planned to facilitate the evacuation of water 8 both downwards but also laterally through the walls of the formwork 27 to avoid a clogging thereof and an overflow of water 8 which could cause a portion of the ash mass 9 out of the formwork 27. The evacuation of water 8 out of the formwork is represented by arrows white on the figure 2 .
