Definitions

  • the present invention relates to furniture structures for playful purposes, and more particularly a play trolley for young children.
  • Safety is the paramount parameter to take into account when it is a question of useful or playful material intended to be used by young children.
  • the mechanical resistance over time of these materials must be particularly sought to limit as much as possible the risks of danger for children notwithstanding the sometimes somewhat destructive nature of the latter.
  • the document FR-A-2 422 367 describes a playpen for children in which the various panels are associated with each other by means of a flexible tube, which makes it possible to fold the playpen for its storage.
  • the park therefore has no defined structure.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a play trolley for young children having characteristics of great flexibility and resistance greatly limiting the risks of deterioration and capable of absorbing various shocks not only as regards the structure of the trolley but also to avoid a total transmission of the shock to the child occupying the carriage, in particular in the event of impact against fixed or mobile obstacles while avoiding significant deformation of the carriage.
  • a play trolley comprising a box mounted on wheels and comprising a peripheral frame consisting of side members extending between corner uprights, characterized in that each end of the side member is connected to an upright by a flexible connecting member.
  • the frame is constituted, for each face of the body, of a pair of parallel beams, each beam being made up of a rigid core sheathed by a plastic tube whose extensions, at beyond the ends of the core, constitute the connecting members of the spar to the uprights which it supports.
  • a body structure which is rigid in form but nevertheless offers a certain flexibility in deformation, giving a damping role capable of absorbing vibrations or shocks, whether these come from outside the carriage. or from the inside, especially due to a child occupying a cart.
  • the carriage body is triangular, the wheels being mounted at the corner uprights of the triangle.
  • This arrangement gives the carriage considerably increased deformability and stability characteristics, in particular making it very difficult to overturn.
  • the play trolley according to the invention shown in Figure 1 consists of a peripheral frame consisting, for each side, of a pair of an upper beam 1 and a lower beam 2, mutually parallel connected by bars 3 according to the general structure of a ladder.
  • the longitudinal members 1 and 2 are secured at their ends opposite vertical uprights 4, defining the corners of the polygon of the body, advantageously a triangle.
  • each beam 1, 2 consists of a core 6, preferably of wood, of preferential cylindrical shape.
  • This core 6 is controlled by a tube 7 made of plastic, with an internal diameter slightly greater than the external diameter of the cores 6.
  • the overall length of each core 6 is slightly less than the distance between the two uprights 4 than the corresponding spar under tends, the spar being fixed to the upright 4 by the extensions 8 of the sheathing tube 7, extending beyond the ends of the core 6, these extensions 8 being forced flattened against the outer periphery of the upright 4 and secured to it last by a screw connection and washer 9 of axis substantially coincident with the bisector between two adjacent side members.
  • the successive upper 1 and lower 2 longitudinal members consist of three wooden cores, with a diameter of about 30 mm, sheathed by a single tube made of flexible plastic material but having a a certain rigidity, for example in polyvinyl with a thickness of about 4 mm, the opposite ends of this tube being abutted around a spacer ring or fitted one on the other, as shown in 10, to produce a sheathing complete with the entire frame formed by the side members, the assembly being produced and shaped by slightly heating the sheathing tube.
  • a certain rigidity for example in polyvinyl with a thickness of about 4 mm
  • the tube areas between two successive cores 6 constitute the connection parts 8 of the side members to the upright 4, ensuring the flexible connection between the latter and the upright in a particularly simple arrangement and efficient, the sheathing tube 7 also contributing to producing a damping effect over the entire length of the side members 1 or 2, the uprights 4 are themselves made up of a metallic or wooden cylindrical core 16 coated with a sheathing plastic 17, as well as the bars 3.
  • each upright comprises a pair of damping elements hat and bottom 12 and 13, respectively, of flattened cylindrical shape projecting as outwardly than inwardly relative to the corresponding angle of the body, and advantageously made of flexible or semi-rigid plastic.
  • the upper damping elements 12 are fixed to the upper ends of the uprights 4 by other cylindrical damping elements of smaller diameter 14.
  • the floor 5 consists of a veil provided, on its underside, along its sides, with stiffening slats and support bearing simply on the inner projecting parts of the damping elements 13, the floor 5 thus being mounted floating on the body. Notwithstanding a certain flexibility in the event of an impact, the body structure of the trolley according to the invention has a rigidity of almost non-deformable shape, even after a long period of use under severe operating conditions.
