Description

Dispositif Wassemblage La Präsente invention a pour objet un dispositif d'assemblage destin6 ä r#unir des #Mments de cons- truction carr & , rectangulaires, cylindriques ou autres, par exemple des panneaux, des cloisons et des re- v8tements pour des meubles en tous genres, des coffrets, des rayonnages, des bätiments, des carrosse- ries, des jouets, etc. Assembly device The subject of the present invention is an assembly device intended ä to join square, rectangular, cylindrical or other construction elements, for example panels, partitions and coatings for furniture of all kinds, cabinets, shelving, buildings, coachwork, toys, etc.

Ce dispositif d'assemblage comprenant au moins une barre profMe- et au moins un krou de fixation, est carac+te'rise' en ce que la barre est de forme tubu- laire ouverte longitudinalement, ses bords libres Aant replids vers l'int#rieur, de telle faron qu'ils forment des appuis pour l'6crou de fixation, celui-ci Aant en forme d'un 6trier dont les extr#mit6s libres pressent, sous Paction d'une vis, ä Fint & ieur desdits appuis. Aussi bien cette barre que F#crou, sont avantagzuse- ment en m#tal, mais peuvent kre faits aussi en toute autre mati#re appropri#e, en mati#r,-s plasti- ques par exemple. La barre profil6e est avantageuse- ment en forme de corni#re, mais sa section peut avoir toute autre forme appropri6e, par exemple tu- bulaire, enU ou en arc de cercle. Qu'elles soient en corni#res ou autrement constitu6es, ces barres peu- vent avoir leurs bords libres roul#s, cou & s ou re- pli6s, permettant d'y accrocher des moyens de fixa- tion ou d'y emboiter d'autres pi#ces, ou servant sim- plement pour l'enjolivage. Les barres du dispositif d'assemblage peuvent avantageusement 8tre d6pla- c#es et 8tre bloqu#es dans differentes positions, les unes par rapport aux autres. This assembly device comprising at least one profiled bar and at least one fastening krou, is characterized in that the bar is tubular in shape open longitudinally, its free edges Aant folded inward. Laughing, in such a way that they form supports for the fixing nut, this being in the form of a stirrup whose free ends press, under the action of a screw, ä Fint & ieur of said supports. Both this bar and F#nut are advantageously made of metal, but can also be made of any other suitable material, plastics for example. The profiled bar is advantageously in the shape of an angle, but its section can have any other appropriate shape, for example tubular, U or arc of a circle. Whether they are made of angles or otherwise made, these bars can have their free edges rolled, necked or folded, allowing fastening means to be hung on them or fittings to be fitted into them. other parts, or simply used for embellishment. The bars of the assembly device can advantageously be moved and blocked in different positions, relative to each other.

Enfin Ncrou. en forme d'Arier peut 8tre taü16 en biais pour que ses pattes d'appui, qui viennent en contact avec les coudes des barres profil6es ä des niveaux diNrents, Fune par rapport ä Fautre, se pla- cent automatiquement dans la position voulue lors du montäge. Ces pattes d'appui peuvent ftre dente- 16es pour pouvoir s'agripper solidement aux barres profil6es et pour opposer ainsi le maximum de r6- sistance ä la tendance au glissement. Finally Ncrou. in the shape of an Arier can be taü16 at an angle so that its support legs, which come into contact with the elbows of the profiled bars ä of the diNrent levels, Fune compared ä the other, automatically move to the desired position during assembly. These support legs may be serrated in order to be able to firmly grip the profiled bars and thus to oppose the maximum resistance ä to the tendency to slip.

Le dessin annex6 repr#sente, ä titre d'exemple, quelques formes d'ex6cution du dispositif faisant Pob- jet de Finvention. The appended drawing represents, ä by way of example, some forms of execution of the device which is the subject of the invention.

Les fig. 1 ä 4 en sont des coupes transversales. La fig. 5 est une vue en 816vation de F#crou en forme d'6trier. Figs. 1 ä 4 are cross sections. fig. 5 is an 816 elevation view of the stirrup-shaped F#nut.

La fia.. 6 montre une formeRTI ID="0001.0273" WI="17" HE="4" LX="1625" LY="1605"> d'ex#cution du dis- positif en coupe transversale, oü Forgane de contre- appui est en bois. The fia.. 6 shows an RTI ID="0001.0273" WI="17" HE="4" LX="1625" LY="1605"> execution form of the device in cross section, where the counter-support member is made of wood.

La fig. 7 est une vue en #l6vation du dispositif constitu6 par une barre profil6e et deux organes de contre-appui agenc6s en organe de sout#nement et en gousset, pouvant coulisser et 8tre bloqu6s ä toute hauteur voulue sur la barre profike. fig. 7 is an elevational view of the device consisting of a profiled bar and two counter-support members arranged as a support member and a gusset, which can slide and be blocked ä any desired height on the profike bar.

La fig. 8 est une coupe selon la ligne A-A de la fig. 7 et la fig. 9 une vue en plan du dispositif re- pr6sent6 en fig. 7. fig. 8 is a section along line A-A of fig. 7 and fig. 9 a plan view of the device shown in FIG. 7.

Le dispositif repr6sent6 dans la fig. 1 est cons- titu# par une barre profike 22, un organe d'assem- blage 23, un 6crou en forme d'ftrier 24 Loge dans la barre 22 et une vis 25 passant par Forgane 23. 22' et 22" d6signent les deux coudages ä angle droit de la barre profil6e 22 le long de ses deux bords libres, 23' et23" les branches inclindes de Vorgane 23, tan- dis que 26 sont des ajourages m6nag6s dans les bran- ches de la barre profiMe et27 est le trou oblong m6- nag6 dans la semelle de Forgane 23 pour le passage de la vis 25. Lorsque les pi#ces 22 et23 occupent leurs places respectives dans le dispositif, les coudes 22"de la premi#re s' & endent parallkement aux branches 23' et23" de la seconde. Ce dispositif d'assemblage est particuli#rement indiqu6 pour la r6union de panneaux d'6paisseurs difKrentes. En pareil cas et comme il est montr6 en fig. 1, ily a d6placement relatif de Forgane 23 par rapport ä la barre profil6e 22- d#placement fonc- tion de ladite diff6rence d'6paisseur - et duquel tien- nent compte, d'une part, la branche plus longue 23" et, d'autre part, le trou oblon- 27 de Forgane 23. The device represented in fig. 1 is made up of a profiled bar 22, an assembly member 23, a stirrup-shaped nut 24 housed in the bar 22 and a screw 25 passing through the member 23. 22' and 22" designate the two bends ä at right angles to the profiled bar 22 along its two free edges, 23' and 23" the inclined branches of the organ 23, while 26 are openings made in the branches of the profiled bar and 27 is the oblong hole made in the sole of the component 23 for the passage of the screw 25 . When parts 22 and 23 occupy their respective places in the device, the 22" elbowsof the first extend parallel to the 23' and 23" branches of the second. This assembly device is particularly suitable for joining panels of different thicknesses. In such a case and as shown in fig. 1, therethere is a relative displacement of the member 23 with respect to ä the profiled bar 22- displacement as a function of said difference in thickness - and which takes into account, on the one hand, the longer branch 23" and, on the other hand, the oblong hole 27 of the organ 23.

Les pattes d'appui 24' de Ncrou en forme d'6trier 24 sont fagonn6es pour pouvoir prendre si- multan6ment appui dans les deux sommets des cou- dages 22' et 22" et pour que leurs faces d'appui, munies de dentelures 28, s'inerustent 16g#rement dans la mati#re de la barre profil#e 22, assurant ainsi un agrippagge ferme de l'6trier 24 sur ladite barre. Cet 6crou 24, qui est aussi applicable ä toutes les autres formes d'ex#eution, est tai116 en biais ; il peut #tre faeilement introduit dans le profil de la barre 22 par Fouverture entre les deux bords repli6s, et s'y place en vissant obliquement ä l'int6rieur (voir fig. 5). The support legs 24' of Ncrou in the form of a stirrup 24 are fashioned so as to be able to take support simultaneously in the two vertices of the elbows 22' and 22" and so that their support faces, provided with serrations 28, are slightly inrusted in the material of the profiled bar 22, thus ensuring firm gripping of the stirrup 24 on said bar.This nut 24, which is also applicable ä all other forms of execution, is tai116 oblique ; it can easily be introduced into the profile of the bar 22 by the opening between the two folded edges, and is placed there by screwing ä obliquely on the inside (see fig. 5).

Le dispositif repr#sent# en fig. 2 est, en principe, identique au pr6c6dent, seul, Forgane de contre- appui 29 a subi une modification en ce sens que sa branche longue 29" Präsente une prolongation 31 au-delä de la semelle-, prolongation qui peut servir de but6e pour une porte ou une fenkre. The device represented in FIG. 2 is, in principle, identical to the previous one, only the counter-support member 29 has undergone a modification in the sense that its long arm 29" has an extension 31 beyond the sole, extension which can serve as a stop for a door or a window.

Dans la forme d'ex & ution repr6sent6e en fig. 4, la barre profiMe 30, avec ses rebords 30', 30", a une section transversale en forme deU. Autrement, ily a identit6 de conception avec celle repr6sent#e dans la fig. 1. In the form of execution represented in FIG. 4, the profiMe bar 30, with its 30', 30", flanges has a U-shaped cross-section. Otherwise, ity has the same design as that shown in Fig. 1.

Par contre, dans la forme d'exdcution montr6e dans la fia. 3, la barre proffl6e 3' a une seetion trans- versale circulaire et ses bords ne sont repliis qu'une seule fois. L'#crou en forme d'dtrier 10 est dans ce cas conform# enU et sa vis 16 trouve son appui ä Forgane 5. On the other hand, in the form of execution shown in fia. 3, the profiled bar 3' has a circular cross-section and its edges are folded only once. The stirrup-shaped nut 10 is in this case shaped like aU and its screw 16 finds its support ä The organ 5.

Le dispositif qui est repr6sent6 dans la fig. 6 se compose de la barre profil#e 4, de l'6crou en forme d'6trier 10' dont le coudage des extr6mit#s est moins pronortc# et qui prend appui ä l'int6rieur des deux rebords repli#s en coop6rant avee la vis 16. Afin d'6viter un d6vissage intempestif, un contre- & rou 17 bloque avanta 'geusement la vis. Celle-ei sert ä Faide d'un & rou 19 ä la fixation d'une ba- guette i8 qui RTI ID="0002.0277" WI="14" HE="4" LX="528" LY="2072"> constitue, d'une part, un moyen de fixation de panneaux et, d'autre part, un rev8te- ment des joints int6rieurs. The device which is represented in fig. 6 is made up of the profiled bar 4, the stirrup-shaped nut 10' whose ends are bent less sharply and which takes support ä inside the two folded edges by cooperating with the screw 16. In order to avoid untimely unscrewing, a counter- & wheel 17 carefully blocks the screw. This is used ä With a & rou 19 ä to fix an i8 stick which RTI ID="0002.0277" WI="14" HE= "4" LX="528" LY="2072"> constitutes, on the one hand, a means of fixing panels and, on the other hand, a coating of the interior joints.

Dans les fig. 7 ä 9, 1 et 2 d8signent des bouts de barre profiMe, constituant un organe de sout#- nement, et qui forment un angle droit entre eux et sont solidaires Fun de Pautre. Ils peuvent coulisszr sur la barre profil#e 3 sur les rebords de Iaquelle ils prennent appui et auxquels, d'autre part, vient s'ac- crocher Fkrou en forme d'6trier 10, qui assure, en 6tant serr6 par la vis 16, passant par la partie de liaison 6, le blocage des bouts de barre 1 et 2 sur la barre 3. In Figs. 7 to 9, 1 and 2 denote profiMe bar ends, constituting a support member, and which form a right angle between them and are integral with each other. They can slide on the profiled bar 3 on the edges of which they rest and to which, on the other hand, Fkrou is hooked in the form of a stirrup 10, which ensures, by being tightened by screw 16, passing through the connecting part 6, the blocking of the bar ends 1 and 2 on bar 3.

Le gousset de southement 7 est une pi#ce en täle ä deux ailes, orient#es perpendiculairement, Pune par rapport ä Fautre, ces ailes comportant des tables cou & es 7' qui servent d'assise aux bouts de barre 1 et 2 de Foraane de southement. Les ailes du gousset sont relMes entre elles par un pont pro- fiM 11, pour s'engager entre les rebords de la barr-, 3 ; ce pont, en coop6ration avec un ärier 10 qui s'accroche auxdits rebords et avec une vis 16', per- met de bloquer le gousset en place sous les bouts de barre 1, 2 dudit organe de sout#nernent. Des bou- tonni & es 12 dans les bouts de barre 1 et 2, et d'au- tres 12' dans les goussets permettent d'y fixer des ta- blettes etc. The south gusset 7 is a sheet metal piece ä with two wings, oriented perpendicularly, one in relation to ä the other, these wings featuring 7' neck tables that serve as seats for the 1 bar ends of Foraane de southement. The wings of the pocket are linked together by a profiM bridge 11, to engage between the edges of the bar, 3; this bridge, in cooperation with a bracket 10 which hooks onto the said edges and with a screw 16', enables the gusset to be locked in place under the bar ends 1, 2 of said supporting member. Buttons 12' in the ends of the bar 1 and 2, and other 12' in the gussets allow shelves etc. to be fixed there.

Les possibilit#s d'adaptation du dispositif et des pi#ces d#crites ci-dessus pour la r#alisation, de cons- tructions en tous genres sont aussi multiples que variees et peuvent s'6tendre ä tous les domaines de la construction, en particulier ä la construction de meubles, de rayonnages, de bätiments, de coffrets, de carrosseries et de jouets. Le dispositif procure une simplification notable dans Fassemblage de diver ses parties d'une construction. Les Elements utilis#s peuvent 8tre standardis#s de mani#re ä se präer ä une fabrication en grandes s & ies. Leur prix de re- vient se trouve ainsi amen6 ä un niveau tr#s bas, ce qui, en combinaison avec les dconomies obtenues par la simplicit# de Fassemblage, permet de r#aliser une rMuction sensible du prix. The possibilities of adapting the device and the parts described above for the realization of constructions of all kinds are as numerous as they are varied and can extend ä all areas of construction, in particular ä the construction of furniture, ä shelving, buildings, cabinets, bodywork and toys. The device provides a significant simplification in the assembly of its various parts of a construction. The Elements used can be standardized in such a way ä that they can be manufactured ä in large series. Their cost price is thus brought ä to a very low level, which, in combination with the savings obtained by the simplicity of assembly, makes it possible to achieve a significant price reduction.
