    Title: SUPPORT DEVICE FOR A TOILET BOWL AND USE OF SUCH A DEVICE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF A
    TOILETS ON AN ASBESTOS FLOOR Technical Field The present invention relates to the building field, and more particularly to the field of renovating sanitary facilities in a building. The object of the present invention relates more precisely to a support device for a toilet bowl making it possible to replace a toilet bowl without perforating the floor, the solution proposed in the context of the present invention being particularly appreciated in the context of a building with asbestos soils. The present invention will thus find many advantageous applications in the building sector by allowing companies in charge of renovating a building, and in particular renovating an apartment building for residential use, to replace toilet bowls without perforate an asbestos floor. Obviously, the present invention will find other advantageous applications in the renovation of other types of buildings comprising asbestos soils. State of the Prior Art Today, techniques for replacing toilet bowls in an asbestos environment are very restrictive for the owner of the building. Thus, landlords, and in particular social landlords, who rent apartments in an apartment building for residential use are subject to very strict regulations when the replacement of all the toilet bowls is necessary and the floors are asbestos. . Before any intervention, the owner must first establish an asbestos diagnosis with a firm of experts. An operating procedure for removing and replacing toilets must then be methodically described to be validated by the labor inspectorate, but also by other bodies such as for example in France the Professional Organization for the Prevention of Building and Works Public (also known by the acronym OPPBTP) or some other social security organizations such as CARSAT (Caisse d'Assurance Retraite et de Santé au Travail).
    Once this operating mode has been validated by all of these organizations, the lessor must find a solution to temporarily relocate each of its tenants to another accommodation for the duration of the intervention. The replacement of the bowl has so far required the drilling of the asbestos floor. Such an intervention is therefore impossible in the presence of tenants who must be temporarily relocated. The operating mode then provides for an intervention in two stages: installation and removal. The operators must first remove the existing cuvettes, this by being equipped with specific equipment (overalls, gloves, mask, bag, etc.).
    Second, installing a new toilet bowl requires drilling the actual floor to create mounting holes, usually four, to secure the new toilet bowl. During this drilling, pockets of a specific gel must be made to ensure the airtightness of the holes made in the asbestos floor in order to prevent asbestos particles from circulating in the room.
    The realization of this drilling is very expensive: in addition to the labor associated with the intervention, it requires for the drilling of each pair of holes the purchase of a gel pocket and a specific concrete wick.
    Finally, when the work is completed, the company in charge of the renovation must provide for the treatment of all waste (rubble, used wicks, gel pockets, etc.) in a specific sector dedicated to asbestos waste.
    It is therefore understandable that the costs associated with this type of renovation are very high; these costs are most often a brake for owners who generally prefer to delay this work, which is done to the detriment of the comfort of tenants and contributes to the deterioration of the building.
    The Applicant submits that to date there is no simple and inexpensive solution for replacing toilet bowls in a building with asbestos floors without drilling the floors.
    Summary and object of the present invention The present invention aims to improve the situation described above.
    One of the objects of the present invention is to remedy the various drawbacks mentioned above by proposing a clever solution in the form of an intermediate base serving as a support for the toilet bowl and sticking directly to the floor while avoiding the piercing of it.
    According to a first aspect, the object of the present invention relates to a support device for a toilet bowl comprising a base comprising means for fixing the bowl to an upper face of the base, said base further comprising a lower face configured to be fixed. solidly to the ground by gluing.
    Thus, thanks to the presence of this base capable of being fixed to the ground by gluing, it is no longer necessary to drill the ground when replacing a toilet bowl.
    Avoiding such drilling in the soil is particularly advantageous when the soil contains asbestos.
    No solution to date has involved the gluing of an intermediate base to fix the bowl to the ground.
    Advantageously, the lower face of the base is provided with at least one cavity capable of receiving an adhesive ensuring an integral fixing of the base with the ground.
    The presence of this at least one cavity prevents the glue from overflowing outside the plinth when the underside of the plinth comes into contact with the ground.
    It also allows a sufficient amount of glue to be applied to ensure good bonding of the base to the ground.
    In an advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the at least one cavity is implemented by at least one peripheral groove extending at least partially along the peripheral edge of the lower face.
    In another embodiment which can be combined with the previous embodiment above, the at least one cavity is implemented by at least one central groove extending into a central area of the underside.
    Such grooves, peripheral and / or central, ensure good distribution of the adhesive over the entire surface of the underside of the base.
    Preferably, the at least one cavity has a closed geometric shape, which in particular facilitates the application of the adhesive in this at least one cavity.
    In a preferred embodiment, at least one cavity has: - a depth of between 5 and 7 millimeters; and / or - a width of between 5 and 7 millimeters.
    Such dimensions of at least one cavity ensure the application of a good amount of glue to ensure good fixation between the base and the ground.
    Preferably, the fixing means implement a screw / nut type assembly system capable of cooperating with the toilet bowl to securely fix the device with the bowl.
    It is understood here that the screws are intended to secure the base with the bowl; Generally, the toilet bowl requires the use of four screws to ensure a good anchorage to the floor. In a first advantageous embodiment of the present invention, the fixing means comprise: - on the upper face of the base, at least one slot, preferably two, dimensioned for the passage of the threaded rod of the screw or screws and the locking the head of the screw (s); and - on the underside of said base, at least one groove, preferably two, communicating with said at least one slot and dimensioned for the integral reception of the head of the screw or screws.
    Thus, the at least one groove has dimensions greater than the dimensions of the at least one slot so that by introducing the screw (s) into the at least one slot, the head of the screw (s) becomes lodged in the thickness of the base by abutting against the bottom of the at least one groove and the rod of the screw or screws protrudes from the upper face to fix the bowl to the base.
    Thanks to this arrangement of at least one slot and at least one groove communicating with each other, the operator before gluing introduces the screw (s) through the slot (s) on the lower face side, a part of the threaded rod of each of the screws. screw thus protrudes from the upper face to allow the fixing of the bowl with the base and the head of each screw remains locked in position in the groove without protruding from the lower face, which allows direct contact of the lower face with the ground.
    According to an advantageous variant, the at least one lumen is of substantially oblong shape forming a slideway making it possible to correctly position said at least one screw along said slideway relative to the bowl depending on the template of said bowl.
    The operator, before gluing, can thus position the screw (s) along the slide in the desired position so that it (s) come (s) opposite the hole provided for this purpose on the bowl.
    Preferably, the fixing means comprise two slots parallel to each other. Preferably, the two lumens extend longitudinally along the upper face of the plinth.
    In a second alternative embodiment, the fixing means comprise a part, preferably of extruded plastic, attached to the upper face of the base and comprising at least one eccentric hole for the introduction of said screw.
    Preferably, the base is made at least partially in a non-porous and / or smooth composite material of the resin type. According to an advantageous embodiment, the material of the base is a resin comprising: - of the order of 70% bauxite; 5 - around 25% acrylic; - around 3% binders; and - around 2% pigments. The use of such a resin confers highly appreciated properties such as in particular: - very good mechanical strength (resistance to bending and breaking in particular), and / or - a density giving the base good stability, and / or - very good hygienic properties preventing the presence and proliferation of bacteria. Preferably, the base has a thickness of between on the order of 18 to 20 millimeters. Such a thickness is adapted to the thickness of a screw head; it also helps to prevent a raised toilet bowl that could be annoying for some elderly people and / or people with disabilities. Preferably, the base has a flare on one of the edges. Such a flare to be substantially aligned with the front portion of the bowl allows it to conform to the shape of most toilet bowl bases. It facilitates the cleaning of this front part and hides the presence of the base. The object of the present invention relates according to a second aspect to a method for replacing a toilet bowl using a support device as described above, said method comprising a step of fixing by gluing the support device with the ground along the underside of said base. Preferably, the glue used during the gluing fixing step is based on MS hybrid polymer. Such an adhesive is appreciated for these properties, in particular resistance and compatibility with the resin of the base.
    According to a third aspect, the object of the present invention relates to a use of a support device as described above for the replacement of a toilet bowl on asbestos soil.
    Thus, through its various technical, functional and structural characteristics described above, the operator in charge of replacing a toilet bowl has a device in the form of a base, the positioning of which between the bowl and the floor and fixing to the floor by gluing avoid drilling the floor, which is particularly advantageous when the floor is asbestos.
    Brief description of the appended figures Other features and advantages of the present invention will emerge from the description below, with reference to the appended Figures 1 to 3 which illustrate an exemplary embodiment thereof without any limiting nature and in which: [Fig. 1] Figure 1 schematically shows a profile view of a toilet bowl fixed to an asbestos floor by means of a support device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention; [Fig. 2] Figure 2 schematically shows a view of an example of an underside of a support device according to Figure 1; and [Fig. 3] FIG. 3 schematically represents a view of an example of an upper face of a support device according to FIG. 1. Detailed description according to an advantageous example embodiment A support device for a toilet bowl according to a exemplary embodiment will now be described in what will follow with reference in conjunction with Figures 1 to 3. As a reminder, one of the objectives of the present invention is to provide a solution avoiding the piercing of the floor for the replacement of a toilet bowl.
    Such an objective highlights a technical problem that has never been resolved so far in the field of building and the renovation of sanitary facilities in an apartment building for residential use.
    The resolution of such a technical problem will be particularly appreciated in the building sector, and in particular in the context of a campaign to renovate sanitary facilities in a housing stock in a building whose floors contain asbestos.
    Indeed, in this context of asbestos soil and as explained in the preamble of the description, the owner of the building is forced to follow very strict regulations on the site if he wishes to replace the toilet bowls.
    Until now, the latter was forced to drill the asbestos floor to secure the cuvettes. Before drilling, an asbestos diagnosis had to be carried out in order to establish a procedure for drilling the asbestos floor. The work was then conditioned by an agreement between different organizations concerned about the safety of the people in charge of this site.
    The procedure also required the use of very expensive and single-use tools.
    The present invention makes it possible to solve this problem of replacing toilet bowls in a building comprising asbestos floors.
    Thus, in the example described here and as illustrated in Figures 1 to 3, provision is made for the implementation of a support device 100 interfacing between the asbestos floor S and the toilet bowl CT.
    Such a support device is in the form of a base 10 whose upper face 10a comprises fixing means 20 allowing the device 100 to be fixed with the toilet bowl CT, and whose lower face 10b is configured to be fixed. on the ground S by gluing.
    The concept underlying the present invention is therefore based on a solution for bonding a support interface avoiding the piercing of the asbestos soil S.
    The Applicant submits that such a bonding solution had never been considered in the building industry for the replacement of cuvettes. Until now, asbestos floors have been drilled with all the constraints and additional costs associated with the presence of asbestos.
    The Applicant observes that the owners of the buildings are often lessors of the social landlord type and that these owners have hitherto paid little attention to the costs associated with this work. Today, they are increasingly seeking to limit the costs associated with this type of renovation.
    To obtain a bond having good resistance and good longevity over time, provision is made, as illustrated in FIG. 2, for the implementation on the lower face 10b of the base 10 of a peripheral groove 11 extending along the peripheral edge 13. of the lower face 10b and of a central groove 12 extending in a central zone 14 of the lower face 10b.
    In the example described here, such grooves 11 and 12 have a closed geometric shape such as for example a closed loop or a rectangle (see Figure 2) and each have a depth between 5 and 7 millimeters and a width between 5 and 7 millimeters.
    These dimensions make it possible to apply in the grooves 11 and 12 a sufficient quantity of glue, such grooves 11 and 12 also preventing the glue from overflowing from the base 10 when the operator comes into contact with the lower face 10b of the base 10 against the floor S to ensure the gluing operation.
    In this example, the operator is using an MS hybrid polymer glue.
    Such an adhesive is particularly appreciated for its fixing properties.
    It is also highly compatible with the material used for the base 10. In this example, the base 10 is in fact at least partially made of a smooth and non-porous material such as a resin of the type comprising: 70% bauxite; - around 25% acrylic; - - of the order of 3% binders; and - around 2% pigments.
    Such a resin, making it possible to have a smooth and non-porous base, confers interesting properties, including in particular the hygienic properties expected here for toilet bowls.
    In fact, having a smooth, non-porous surface prevents the development of bacteria and the accumulation of dust, dirt or the like.
    The use of such a resin also makes it possible to have a heavy base, and therefore stable, while preserving a base of low thickness, which is necessary to avoid excessive raising of the bowl.
    In this example, the base 10 has a thickness of 19 millimeters.
    It is therefore understood that the lower face 10b of the base is designed to be glued by the operator to the asbestos floor S.
    Before gluing, the operator must first fix the bowl CT to the upper face 10a of the base 10. For this purpose, fixing means 20 are provided for using a screw / nut type assembly system (not shown here) capable of cooperating with the toilet bowl CT to fix said device 100 integrally with the bowl CT.
    Conventionally, a CT bowl has four anchor holes to receive the screws.
    In this example and as illustrated in Figures 2 and 3, it is intended to securely fix the base 10 to these anchoring holes that the fixing means 20 comprise, on the upper face
    10a of the base 10, two slots 21 of oblong shape and parallel to each other, these two slots 21 being dimensioned for the passage of the threaded rod of each of the screws and the locking of the head of each of the screws. In this example, the fixing means 20 further comprise, on the lower face 10b of the base 10, two grooves 22 communicating respectively with the two slots 21.
    These two grooves 22 are dimensioned for the full reception of each of the screw heads. Thus, when the operator introduces a screw through the lower face 10b of the base 10 through one of the two slots 21, the threaded rod of the latter protrudes from the upper face 10a to allow fixing with the anchoring holes. bowl CT and the screw head of the latter fits into the thickness of the groove 22, the latter coming during tightening with the nut in abutment against the bottom of the groove 22. Full reception of the head screw in the groove 22 prevents the latter from protruding from the lower face 10b and hindering the bonding of this face 10b with the asbestos floor S. The oblong shape of the slots 21 extending longitudinally along the upper face 104 of the base 10 allows the operator to correctly position the screws so that they are facing the anchoring holes of the bowl CT. Such a shape thus constitutes means of adapting the attachment to the jig of the bowl and / or its model. This makes it possible to have a single base 10 which adapts to most models of cuvettes offered by the various market players. The design of a support device 100 for a CT toilet bowl according to the present invention allows the deployment of a new method of replacing a CT toilet bowl, without drilling, implementing a step of fixing by gluing the support device. 100 with soil S.
    The implementation of such a process by gluing and without drilling significantly reduces the costs (financial cost and time savings) on a renovation site. It should be noted that this detailed description relates to a particular embodiment of the present invention, but that in any case this description is in no way limiting the subject of the invention; on the contrary, its objective is to remove any possible imprecision or any misinterpretation of the following claims. It should also be observed that the reference signs placed in brackets in the following claims are in no way limiting; the sole purpose of these signs is to improve the intelligibility and understanding of the following claims as well as the scope of the protection sought.
