Abstract
Mobile wall traction system (1) for swimming pools (4) equipped with at least one mobile wall (2) and two parallel rail elements (3), located on at least two opposite sides of the swimming pool (4), the wall (2) being able to travel along said rail elements (3), characterised in that it comprises magnetic coupling travel means (5) of said wall
Description

The characteristics and advantages of a traction device for swimming pool mobile walls according to the present invention will be made more clear in the following description provided as an example but by no means limiting, with reference to the appended schematic drawings wherein:



FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of a swimming pool equipped with the traction system for mobile walls according to the present invention;



FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a detail of the traction system for mobile walls according to the present invention; and



FIG. 3 is a schematic view of the transmission element according to the present invention, installed in a side compartment of a mobile wall. In reference to the figures, a traction system for swimming pool mobile walls is shown, identified throughout by the numeral 1.


Claims
  • 1. Mobile wall traction system (1) for swimming pools (4) equipped with at least one mobile wall (2) and at least two parallel rail elements (3), located on at least two opposite sides of the swimming pool (4), the wall (2) being able to travel along said rail elements (3), characterised in that it comprises magnetic coupling travel means (5) of said mobile wall (2).
  • 2. Traction system (1) according to claim 1 characterised in that the magnetic coupling travel means (5) comprise at least one transmission element (8) for each rail element (3), that travels thanks to driving means (10), and at least one drawn element (9), fixed to said mobile wall (2), and coupled functionally and magnetically to said transmission element (8) in order to travel in unison with said transmission element (8).
  • 3. Traction system (1) according to claim 2 characterised in that said at least one transmission element (8), moved by said driving means (10) and said at least one drawn element (9) are coupled magnetically in a manner for release.
  • 4. Traction system (1) according to claim 2 characterised in that said at least one transmission element (8), and said at least one drawn element (9) comprise at least one magnet (21).
  • 5. Traction system (1) according to claim 4 characterised in that said magnet (21) is a permanent magnet and/or an electromagnet.
  • 6. Traction system (1) according to claim 5 characterised in that each of said rail elements (3) comprises at least one amagnetic tube (13) comprising an upper flat face (14), said amagnetic tube (13) being installed with said upper face (14) substantially flush with the floor paving around the perimeter of said pool (4).
  • 7. System (1) according to claim 6, characterised in that said transmission element (8) also comprises at least one support frame (17) for said magnet (21) and at least two wheels (23) to permit the sliding action of said transmission element (8) inside said amagnetic tube (13).
  • 8. Traction system (1) according to claim 3, characterised in that said drawn element (9) also comprises at least one support frame for said magnet (21) and at least two wheels (22) in order to slide along the external paving (33) of said pool (4) in unison with said transmission element (8).
  • 9. Traction system (1) according to claim 2, characterised in that said drawn element (9) is installed inside the structure of said mobile wall (2) in order to be fixed to said wall (2).
  • 10. Traction system (1) according to claim 6, characterised in that said driving means (10) comprise a belt and pulley system, or cable and winch system positioned inside said tube (13) and/or in at least one compartment located under the floor paving of said pool (4) perimeter.
  • 11. Traction system (1) according to claim 6, characterised in that said driving means comprise a rack positioned inside said tube and/or in at least one compartment located under the floor paving of said pool perimeter.
  • 12. System (1) according to claim 6, characterised in that said driving means (10) comprise an oleodynamic cylinder positioned inside said tube (13) and/or in at least one compartment located under the floor paving of said pool (4) perimeter.
