Description

DISPOSITIF DE PROTECTION NOTAMMENT
D ' lIABITATION INDIVIDUELLE CONTRE LES INONDATIONS
La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif de protection contre les inondations applicable en particulier à des maisons individuelles.
PROTECTION DEVICE, ESPECIALLY
INDIVIDUAL HOUSING AGAINST FLOODS
The present invention relates to a flood protection device applicable in particular to individual houses.

On connaît les graves dommages qu'entraînent aux habitations les inondations, aussi bien pour ce qui concerne la structure d'habitation elle-même que le mobilier intérieur. We know the serious damage caused to homes by floods, both with regard to the housing structure itself and the interior furniture.

Qu'il s'agisse d'inondations dues à des crues de rivière plus ou moins périodiques ou à de violents orages, il n'existe pratiquement aucun moyen efficace de lutter contre la montée parfois très rapide et-lBenvahissement des eaux à llin- térieur des habitations. Whether it is flooding due to more or less periodic river floods or violent thunderstorms, there is practically no effective way to combat the sometimes very rapid rise and flooding of the waters inside. homes.

Le but de la présente invention est de remédier à ces grands inconvénients en particulier pour ce qui concerne les habitations,ou analogue, individuelles en proposant un moyen simple,mais cependant efficaceepour constituer automatiquement un barrage autour des unités individuelles d'habitation dès que l'eau atteint celles-ci. The aim of the present invention is to remedy these great drawbacks, in particular with regard to individual dwellings, or the like, by proposing a simple, but nevertheless effective, means to automatically constitute a barrier around individual dwelling units as soon as the water reaches these.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de protection contre les inondations extérieures d'unités de construction ou analogues présentant au dessus du sol une fa çade rigide de surface relativement continue, et en particulier des habitations individuelles, caractérisé en ce qu'il est constitué d'une enveloppe souple, imperméable, résistance et dépliable, susceptible de former écran entre ladite façade rigide et l'eau provenant d'une inondation extérieure, ladite enveloppe ayant un bord inférieur en contact étanche avec le sol environnant l'unité de construction à protéger et courant au voisinage immédiat du pied de ladite façade et un bord supérieur munid'un luuyerl de flottaison mainlenant ledit bord au dessus du plan de l'eau Lt assurant le déploiement vertical automatique de l'en- veloI au fur et à mesure de la montée de l'eau, celle-ci faisanL plaquer l'enveloppe souple progressivement contre ladite façade. To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for protection against external flooding of construction units or the like having above the ground a rigid facade of relatively continuous surface, and in particular of individual dwellings, characterized in that 'It consists of a flexible, waterproof, resistant and unfoldable envelope, capable of forming a screen between said rigid facade and the water coming from an external flood, said envelope having a lower edge in sealed contact with the surrounding soil. construction unit to be protected and running in the immediate vicinity of the foot of said facade and an upper edge provided with a buoyl of buoyancy now holding said edge above the water level Lt ensuring the automatic vertical deployment of the envelope as and as the water rises, the latter causes the flexible envelope to be pressed progressively against said facade.

Dans le cas par exe1ttple d'une maison individuelle l'unveloppe entoure totalement la maison et forme un manchon souple susceptible de se plaquer, à la manière d'une chaussette que l'on roule le long de la jambe, contre la façade extérieure de la maison au fur et à mesure de la montée de l'eau. In the case, for example, of a single house, the envelope completely surrounds the house and forms a flexible sleeve capable of being pressed, in the manner of a sock which is rolled along the leg, against the external facade of the house as the water rises.

L'invention peut également s'appliquer au cas des maisons mitoyennes, l'enveloppe ayant alors la forme d'une bande horizontale allongée dont les deux hords extrêmes sont reliés de manière étanche aux parois verticales de la partie à protéger, aux deux extrémités de celle-ci. The invention can also be applied to the case of terraced houses, the envelope then having the shape of an elongated horizontal strip whose two extreme edges are tightly connected to the vertical walls of the part to be protected, at the two ends of this one.

Quant aux moyens pour assurer la flottaison du bord supérieur de l'enveloppe en même temps que le libre déploiement progressif de l'enveloppe, ils peuvent être réalisés de bien des manières comme on le verra plus loin dansa description qui va suivre, description donnée à titre d'exemple uniquement et en regard dés dessins annexés sur lesquels
- Fig. 1 représente une vue en perspective partielle avec
coupe verticale d'une maison individuelle équipée d'un
dispositif de protection conforme à l'invention dans la

As for the means for ensuring the buoyancy of the upper edge of the envelope at the same time as the progressive free deployment of the envelope, they can be produced in many ways as will be seen below in the description which follows, description given at by way of example only and opposite the appended drawings in which

sitive according to the invention.

Sur les Fig. 1 et 2 on a représenté un angle d'une construction individuelle 1 à un seul niveau, elevée sur des fondations 2 enfouies dans le sol 3 dont on a représenté en 4 la surface. In Figs. 1 and 2 there is shown an angle of an individual construction 1 at a single level, raised on foundations 2 buried in the ground 3 whose surface has been shown at 4.

La façade visible de la construction 1 présente deux fenêtres 5 avec volets 6 et appuis saillants 7. The visible facade of construction 1 has two windows 5 with shutters 6 and projecting supports 7.

Au voisinage immédiat du pied de la façade, tout autour de la construction 1 est réalisé,dans un massif d'ancrage 8 en béton accolé aux fondations 2,un logement 9 en forme de caniveau entourant completement la construction, au plus près de celle-ci, l'orifice du logement 9 affleurant sensiblement la surface 4 du sol. In the immediate vicinity of the foot of the facade, all around the construction 1 is made, in a solid anchor 8 of concrete attached to the foundations 2, a housing 9 in the form of a gutter completely surrounding the construction, as close as possible to it. ci, the orifice of the housing 9 substantially flush with the surface 4 of the ground.

Le logement 9, de section générale sensiblement rectangulaire, est susceptible d'être recouvert complètement par une dalle amovible (non représentée sur les dessins) de façon à permettre la libre circulation sans aucun danger autour de la maison en période de non utilisation du dispositif de protection 10 conforme à l'invention, lequel est repllé com-.  The housing 9, of generally substantially rectangular section, is capable of being completely covered by a removable slab (not shown in the drawings) so as to allow free movement without any danger around the house during periods of non-use of the device. protection 10 according to the invention, which is replicated com-.

me représenté sur la Fig. 1 à l'intérieur du logement 9.shown me in fig. 1 inside the housing 9.

Ce dispositif 10 est constitué d'une enveloppe ou peau il en matériau souple, étanche à l'eau et résistant, entourant complètement la construction 1 à la manière d'un manchon d'axe général vertical dont l'extrémité inférieure 11 se rait ancrée dans le massif B et dont l'extrémité supérieure serait fixée de manière étanche à un dispositif de flottaison susceptible d'être soulevé par la montée de l'eau en empêchant celle-ci de passer par dessus le bord supérieur dudit manchon souple. This device 10 consists of an envelope or skin 11 of flexible material, waterproof and resistant, completely surrounding the construction 1 in the manner of a sleeve of generally vertical axis whose lower end 11 is rait anchored in the massif B and the upper end of which would be fixed in leaktight manner to a flotation device capable of being lifted by the rise of the water by preventing the latter from passing over the upper edge of the said flexible sleeve.

Sur les Fig. 1 et 2 on a représenté très schématiquement en 12 un tel dispositif de flottaison constitué ici symboliquement par un boudin yonflé (ou gonflable) à la partie inférieure duquel est attachée de manière étanche le bord supérieur de la peau 11. In Figs. 1 and 2, there is shown very diagrammatically at 12 such a flotation device constituted here symbolically by a yonflé (or inflatable) tube at the lower part of which the upper edge of the skin 11 is tightly attached.

Le boudin 12 est bien entendu continu et se boucle sur lui-même. Dans les angles tels qu'en 13 le boudin 12fait un coude ou bien se divise en deux tronçons distincts articutés entre eux de manière étanche. The flange 12 is of course continuous and buckles on itself. In the angles such as in 13 the flange 12 makes an elbow or is divided into two distinct sections hinged together in a sealed manner.

En période de non usage < Fig. 1) la peau 11 est repliée par exemple en accordéon dans le caniveau 9 lequel est masqué par la dalle (ou les dalles) de recouvrement, le boudin 12 (ou autre dispositif de flottaison) reposant par gravité sur les plis de la peau 11. When not in use <Fig. 1) the skin 11 is folded, for example in an accordion fashion, into the channel 9 which is hidden by the covering slab (or slabs), the flange 12 (or other flotation device) resting by gravity on the folds of the skin 11.

En cas de risque d'inondation provenait d'une crue de rivière ou d'orages Violents par exemple, les tâches pré paratoires à la mise en service du dispositif de protection consistent à retirer la ou les dalles pour perrnettre éventuel- lement à l'eau de pénétrer librement dans le caniveau 9 pour soulever le boudin 10 et l'entraîner avec elle et à obturer les ouvertures de la construction (fermer les volets 6). In the event of risk of flooding came from a river flood or Severe thunderstorms for example, the tasks preparatory to the putting into service of the protective device consist in removing the slab (s) in order to possibly allow the water to freely penetrate into the gutter 9 to lift the rod 10 and drive it with it and to close the construction openings (close the flaps 6).

Le dispositif est alors prèt à entrer en action. The device is then ready to go into action.

Dès que l'eau envahit le caniveau 9, elle soulève le boudin 10 tout autour de la constructionJ le force à sortir du caniveau et le soulève verticalement. As soon as water invades the gutter 9, it lifts the flange 10 all around the construction J forces it out of the gutter and lifts it vertically.

Au cours du soulèvement la peau 11 se déploie pro gressivément et est appliquée par la pression de l'eau 14 contre la façade extérieure de la construction 1 comme représenté sur la Fig. 2. During the lifting, the skin 11 deploys progressively and is applied by the pressure of the water 14 against the external facade of the construction 1 as shown in FIG. 2.

Pour des questions de tenue et de résistance,ladite façade,ou plus exactement la surface sur laquelle la peau fl est appliquée par la pression de l'eau, doit être la plus unie et rigide possible d'où l'intérêt de fermer les volets 6 et autres dispositifs d'obturation ou de protection des ouvertures. For reasons of resistance and resistance, said facade, or more exactly the surface on which the skin is applied by the pressure of the water, must be as smooth and rigid as possible, hence the advantage of closing the shutters. 6 and other devices for closing or protecting openings.

I1 peut etre nécessaire dans certains cas, suivant la nature, la forme des ouvertures, ou par suite de 1 ' existence d'éléments de construction en saillie de la façade (par exemple escalier extérieur) de prévoir des éléments amovibles plans susceptibles de constituer une surface relativement rigide supportant l'application de la peau protectrice 11 et résistant à.la pression de l'eau, de tels éléments étant remisés en un endroit approprié en période d'absence de risque d'inondation. It may be necessary in certain cases, depending on the nature, the shape of the openings, or as a result of the existence of construction elements projecting from the facade (for example external staircase) to provide removable planar elements capable of constituting a relatively rigid surface supporting the application of the protective skin 11 and resistant to the pressure of water, such elements being stored in a suitable place in the absence of risk of flooding.

Normalement, les. saillies habituelles des façades de constructions individuelles telles que les appuis de fenêtre 7 ne constituent pas un obstacle au-déploiement de la peau 11 car le boudin 12 est capable de déplacement latéral sous la pression de l'eau pour contourner l'obstacle et continuer son ascension. La peau 11 bien entendu épouse sans problème de telles saillies. Normally, the. usual protrusions of the facades of individual constructions such as the window sills 7 do not constitute an obstacle to the deployment of the skin 11 because the flange 12 is capable of lateral displacement under the pressure of water to bypass the obstacle and continue its ascent. The skin 11 of course marries such projections without problem.

Les plis de stockage Ila de la peau sont de préférence entraînés par le dispositif 12 contre représenté sur la Flg. 2, le dispositif 12 comportant alors une sorte de mabasin de stockage dévidant la peau 11 à la manière d'un distributeur au fur et à mesure que le boudin 12 est soulevé. The storage folds Ila of the skin are preferably driven by the device 12 against shown in FIG. 2, the device 12 then comprising a sort of storage dispenser unwinding the skin 11 in the manner of a dispenser as and when the flange 12 is lifted.

Le dispositif de l'invention forme donc un véritable écran protecteur empêchant 1 'eau de passer par dessus le bou filin 12 quel que soit le niveau de l'eau, sous réserve bien entendu d'avoir une hauteur maximale de peau 11 convenable. The device of the invention therefore forms a real protective screen preventing the water from passing over the cord 12 regardless of the water level, subject of course to having a suitable maximum skin height 11.

Lorsque l'eau redescend, le boudin 12 redescend également. Une fois i 'eau complètement retirée, il convient évidemment de nettoyer l'ensemble du dispositif, le faire sécher, le replier et le remettre dans son logement ; le dispositif étant alors prêt à fonctionner de nouveau. When the water comes back down, the flange 12 also goes back down. Once the water has been completely removed, it is obviously advisable to clean the entire device, dry it, fold it back and put it back in its housing; the device then being ready to operate again.

Le dispositif de flottaison 12 peut être réalisé de différentes manières sans sortir pour autant du cadre de
L'invention.
The flotation device 12 can be produced in different ways without thereby departing from the scope of
The invention.

On a vu que ce pouvait être un boudin (continu ou en chapelet) de formes et dimensions variables et en divers matériaux, Ce peut être par exemple une enveloppe étanche souple et résistante remplie en permanence d'air sous une certaine pression ou du contraire stockée à plat et gonflée d'air sous pression au moment de l'emploi. Ce peut etre aussi une masse de mousse de matière plastique expansée ou autre de densité inférieure à celle de l'eau pour pouvoir flotter et avoir suf fisamment de résistance tout en ayant de préférence une certaine plasticité. We have seen that it could be a rod (continuous or in a chain) of variable shapes and dimensions and in various materials. This could for example be a flexible and resistant waterproof envelope permanently filled with air under a certain pressure or, conversely, stored. flat and inflated with pressurized air at the time of use. It can also be a mass of foam of expanded plastic material or other of density lower than that of water to be able to float and to have sufficient resistance while preferably having a certain plasticity.

La iy. 3 illustre un mode de réalisation parmi d'autres d'un dispositif de flottaison. Il est constitué de deux boudins jumelés 15,16 dont la structure et/ou le matériau constitutif leur permettent de demeurer constamment à la surface de l'eau quei que soit l'état du déploiement de la peau 11. The iy. 3 illustrates one embodiment among others of a flotation device. It consists of two twin tubes 15,16 whose structure and / or constituent material allow them to remain constantly on the surface of the water whatever the state of deployment of the skin 11.

Cette dernier esL stockée à l'état replié (11a) au dessus des dux boudins 1S,16, l'extrémité de la peau étant fixée à l'un et/ou vautre dans boudins.The latter is stored in the folded state (11a) above the two tubes 1S, 16, the end of the skin being fixed to one and / or wall in tubes.

La zone de stockage des plis 11a est de préférence protégée par un capotage rigide 17 solidaire des boudins 15,16 et caréné de façon à permettre à l'ensemble du dispositif de flottaison 15-lb-17 d'esquiver les éventuelles saillies telles que 7 au cours de La montée de l'eau. Un tel carénage 17 déli mite, coté façade de la construction 1,un orifice 18 de passage de La peau 11, le rebord 17a du carénage débordant légèrement afin de servir de butée vis-à-vis de la paroi de la,construc-
Lion @ aussi Le que vis-à-vis des éventuelles saillies 7.
The folds storage area 11a is preferably protected by a rigid cover 17 integral with the flanges 15, 16 and streamlined so as to allow the entire flotation device 15-lb-17 to dodge any projections such as 7 during the Rise of the Water. Such a fairing 17 delimits, on the front side of the construction 1, an orifice 18 for passage of the skin 11, the rim 17a of the fairing slightly projecting in order to serve as a stop vis-à-vis the wall of the, construction
Lion @ also Le que vis-à-vis any protrusions 7.

Un tel dispositif de flottaison est stable et capible de s'adapter à des surfaces d'application de la peau Il présentant des irrégularités et des saillies. Such a flotation device is stable and capable of adapting to the application surfaces of the skin It having irregularities and protrusions.

Le carénage 17 est bien entendu amovible pour per mettre le repliage de la peau 11.  The fairing 17 is of course removable to allow the folding of the skin 11.

On peut prévoir d'autres moyens de stockage de la pe ;u 11 sur le dispositif de flottaison et de déploiement (12; 15,16), par exemple un tùckaqe par enroulement et non plus par pliage en accordéon. l,e sLockacje peut aussi être réalise en en dessous des organes flotteurs, ou au niveau de l'eau sur un côté du dispositif- de flottaison ou dans sa zone centrale. One can provide other means of storing the pe; u 11 on the flotation and deployment device (12; 15,16), for example a tùckaqe by winding and no longer by folding accordion. l, e sLockacje can also be carried out below the floats, or at water level on one side of the flotation device or in its central area.

Par unité de construction on entend toute construction, quelle que soit sa nature ou sa destination,pourvuqu'elle présente une façade rigide relativement plane et continue susceptible de supporter l'application sous la pression de l'eau d'une enveloppe souple déployable, ladite façade étant la façade propre de la construction ou bien'une façade ou partie de façade rapporte pour la circonstance. L'invention peut s'ap- pliquer également à toute zone déterminée à protéger dans la mesure où celle-ci peut être entourée au préalable d'une palissade ou analogue continue propre à recevoir une enveloppe protectrice telle que 11 appliquée pa? l'eau d'une inondation extérieure. By construction unit is meant any construction, whatever its nature or destination, provided that it has a relatively flat and continuous rigid facade capable of withstanding the application under the pressure of water of a flexible deployable envelope, said facade being the proper facade of the construction or a facade or part of facade pays for the circumstance. The invention can also be applied to any determined area to be protected insofar as this can be surrounded beforehand by a continuous palisade or the like suitable for receiving a protective covering as applied 11? water from an outdoor flood.

Bien que l'invention soit particulièrement applicable à la protection de maisons individuelles en zones à haut risque d'inondation, on peut envisager aussi son emploi dans le cas de constructions juxtaposes ne permettant pas d'installer un dispositif entourant: complètement l'ensemble des cons trustions Iwans ce cas, l'enveloppe ou peau 11 n'a plus la forme d'un manchon mais d'une bande horizontale dont les deux ex tréittités doivent être solidarisées de manière étanche avec la paroi sur laquelle elle doit s'appliquer, aux deux extrémités de celle-ci.  Although the invention is particularly applicable to the protection of individual houses in areas at high risk of flooding, one can also consider its use in the case of juxtaposed constructions not allowing the installation of a device surrounding: completely all of the cons trustions Iwans in this case, the casing or skin 11 no longer has the shape of a sleeve but of a horizontal strip whose two ends must be secured to the wall on which it is to be applied, at both ends of it.

t)e. préférence, la fonction au droit de ces extrémités est fixe et sur toute la hauteur de la bande de protection afin d'voir une bonne étanchéité, bien que l'on puisse prévoir des glissières fixes et un système coulissant solidaire de l'ex- trémité de la bande, susceptible de se déplacer le lony des glissières en assurant une étanchéité convenable. you. preferably, the function to the right of these ends is fixed and over the entire height of the protective strip in order to see a good seal, although one can provide fixed slides and a sliding system integral with the end of the strip, capable of moving the lony of the slides, ensuring a suitable seal.

Enfin, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation représentés et décrits ci-dessus mais en couvre au contrdire toutes les variantes notamn:ent en ce qui concerne lt dispositif de déploiement de [a peau protectrice 11 au fur et à mesure de la montée de l'eau Par ailleurs, la ou les dalles amovibles peuvent être constituées par des panneaux en matériau de densité inférieure à celle de l6eau,rontés pivotants sur l'un des bords du caniveau 9 et susceptibles de s'escamoter automatiquement par relevage sous la pression du dispositif de flottaison lors de la montée de l'eau. En outre, la peau li peut entre relativement élastique et/ou suffisamment résistante de manière à absorber des déformations évitant de prévoir une surface d'appui continue.  Finally, the invention is not limited to the embodiments shown and described above but covers, on the contrary, all the variants in particular: ent with regard to the deployment device for [a protective skin 11 as and when rising water In addition, the removable slab (s) may consist of panels made of a material with a density lower than that of the water, swiveled around one of the edges of the gutter 9 and capable of being retracted automatically by lifting under pressure of the flotation device when the water rises. In addition, the skin li can be relatively elastic and / or sufficiently resistant so as to absorb deformations avoiding the provision of a continuous bearing surface.
