Description

La présente invention concerne un porte-objet universel spécialement conçu pour retenir un objet quelconque présentant un élément allongé, par exemple une paire de lunettes ou un stylo à bille.The present invention relates to a universal object holder specially designed for retaining any object having an elongated element, for example a pair of glasses or a ballpoint pen.

Le but recherché par l'invention est d'apporter une solution permettant d'éviter d'être encombré par une paire de lunettes, un stylo à bille ou d'autres objets dans certaines situations : sur la plage, en promenade, à bicyclette, en voitures et autres.The aim sought by the invention is to provide a solution making it possible to avoid being encumbered by a pair of glasses, a ballpoint pen or other objects in certain situations: on the beach, on a walk, on a bicycle, in cars and others.

Ce but est atteint par le porte-objet selon l'invention qui comprend un corps ayant un profil en forme de pince, ce corps étant constitué de deux plats reliés entre eux par une bande rigide pliée formant ressort, la face intérieure d'un des plats portant un bloc en matière compressible ayant une densité choisie pour lui conférer des propriétés de compressibilité et d'élasticité, les extrémités des deux plats présentant des moyens d'accrochage conçus pour maintenir lesdites extrémités des plats en position rapprochée en sorte de comprimer'légèrement une partie du bloc de matière compressible. La face extérieure d'un des plats est pourvue d'un moyen de fixation à un objet étranger.This object is achieved by the object holder according to the invention which comprises a body having a profile in the shape of a clamp, this body consisting of two plates connected together by a rigid band folded forming a spring, the inside face of one of the dishes carrying a block of compressible material having a density chosen to give it compressibility and elasticity properties, the ends of the two dishes having hooking means designed to keep said ends of the dishes in close position so as to compress slightly part of the block of compressible material. The outer face of one of the dishes is provided with a means of attachment to a foreign object.

Dans une forme de réalisation avantageuse, le moyen de fixation consiste en une patte servant de glissière, de préférence pourvue d'une fente. Selon un mode d'exécution préféré, le corps du porte-objet et le moyen de fixation sont réalisés d'une pièce en matière moulée.In an advantageous embodiment, the fixing means consists of a tab serving as a slide, preferably provided with a slot. According to a preferred embodiment, the body of the object holder and the fixing means are made in one piece from molded material.

L'invention est exposée plus en détail dans ce qui suit en référence aux dessins ci-annexés qui illustrent une forme de réalisation à titre d'exemple nullement limitatif :

  • la fig. 1 est une vue en perspective du porte-objet selon l'invention en position ouverte;
  • la fig. 2 montre le porte-objet de la fig. 1, vu de côté, en position fermée; ,
  • la fig. 3 montre le dos du porte-objet de la fig. 1;
  • la fig. 4 montre le porte-objet de la fig. 1 dans lequel est placée une, paire de lunettes.
The invention is explained in more detail in the following with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate an embodiment by way of non-limiting example:
  • fig. 1 is a perspective view of the object holder according to the invention in the open position;
  • fig. 2 shows the object holder of FIG. 1, seen from the side, in the closed position; ,
  • fig. 3 shows the back of the object holder of fig. 1;
  • fig. 4 shows the object holder of FIG. 1 in which is placed a pair of glasses.

Le dispositif consiste en un corps 1 ayant un profil général en forme de pince. Ce corps 1 présente deux plats 11 et 12 reliés entre eux par une bande rigide pliée 13 formant ressort. Un des plats 12 porte un bloc de matière compressible 2 (fig. 1). La matière utilisée pour le bloc 2 doit avoir une densité choisie pour que le bloc se déforme par compression tout en ayant une certaine élasticité. Le bloc 2 est par exemple constitué de nylon qui ne réagit pas aux rayons ultra-violets.The device consists of a body 1 having a general profile in the form of a clamp. This body 1 has two dishes 11 and 12 connected together by a folded rigid strip 13 forming a spring. One of the dishes 12 carries a block of compressible material 2 (fig. 1). The material used for block 2 must have a density chosen so that the block deforms by compression while having a certain elasticity. Block 2 is for example made of nylon which does not react to ultraviolet rays.

Les extrémités des plats 11 et 12 sont munies de moyens d'accrochage 3 et 4 conçus pour retenir lesdites extrémités en position rapprochée (figure 2). Dans l'exemple illustré, les moyens d'accrochage consistent en deux ergots 3 disposés en saillie sur l'extrémité du plat 11 et en une languette 4 formée à l'extrémité du plat 12 en sorte de pouvoir s'adapter entre et être retenue par les ergots 3. La hauteur des ergots 3 est choisie en sorte que lorsque la languette 4 est retenue par ces ergots 3 (fig. 2), une partie au moins du bloc 2 se trouve légèrement comprimé.The ends of the dishes 11 and 12 are provided with hooking means 3 and 4 designed to retain said ends in the close position (FIG. 2). In the example illustrated, the attachment means consist of two lugs 3 projecting from the end of the dish 11 and a tongue 4 formed at the end of the dish 12 so as to be able to adapt between and be retained by the pins 3. The height of the pins 3 is chosen so that when the tongue 4 is retained by these pins 3 (fig. 2), at least part of the block 2 is slightly compressed.

Le dispositif se complète de moyens de suspension. Comme le montre la fig. 3, le plat 11 présente deux trous 5 dans lesquels est enfilé un cordon 6 pour la suspension au cou par exemple. Le dos du porte-objet c'est-à-dire la face extérieure du plat 11 est munie d'une patte de fixation 7. Cette patte 7 est avantageusement formée avec une fente 8 et les deux ailes 71 et 72 sont avantageusement profilées en sorte d'être plus minces le long de la fente 8 que le long de leur bord extérieur 73. La patte de fixation 7 sert de glissière pour la suspension du dispositif à une ceinture et la fente 8 permet la suspension à un bouton de chemise : le bouton se glisse entre le dos du plat 11 et la patte 7, le fil de retenue du bouton s'insérant le long de la fente 8.The device is completed with suspension means. As shown in fig. 3, the plate 11 has two holes 5 in which a cord 6 is threaded for hanging from the neck, for example. The back of the object holder, that is to say the outer face of the dish 11 is provided with a fixing lug 7. This lug 7 is advantageously formed with a slot 8 and the two wings 71 and 72 are advantageously profiled in sort of being thinner along the slot 8 than along their outer edge 73. The fixing lug 7 serves as a slide for the suspension of the device to a belt and the slot 8 allows the suspension to a shirt button: the button slides between the back of the dish 11 and the tab 7, the button retaining thread being inserted along the slot 8.

Dans un mode d'exécution préféré, le corps 1 avec les moyens d'accrochage 3 et 4 et le moyen de fixation 7 sont réalisés d'une pièce en matière moulée, par exemple du PVC cellulaire souple ayant une densité de 125 kg/m3.In a preferred embodiment, the body 1 with the attachment means 3 and 4 and the fixing means 7 are made in one piece from molded material, for example flexible cellular PVC having a density of 125 kg / m 3 .

La fig. 4 montre le porte-objet selon l'invention dans lequel est placée une paire de lunettes par exemple. On dispose les branches des lunettes entre le bloc de mesure 2 et le plat 11 du corps en position ouverte et on accroche la patte 4 entre les ergots 3 : les lunettes sont ainsi retenues et l'ensemble peut être suspendu au cou au moyen du cordon 6, accroché à la ceinture au moyen de la patte 7 ou accroché à un bouton de chemise au moyen de la fente 8 ménagée dans la patte 7. D'autres objets (stylo à bille ou autres) peuvent être portés d' une façon semblable. Il est bien entendu que des variations peuvent être apportéespar l'homme de l'art sans s'écarter de la portée de l'invention.Fig. 4 shows the object holder according to the invention in which a pair of glasses is placed, for example. The branches of the glasses are placed between the measuring block 2 and the flat 11 of the body in the open position and the tab 4 is hooked between the pins 3: the glasses are thus retained and the assembly can be suspended from the neck by means of the cord 6, hung on the belt by means of the tab 7 or hung on a shirt button by means of the slot 8 formed in the tab 7. Other objects (ballpoint pen or the like) can be carried in a similar manner . It is understood that variations can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention.
