Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of automatic movement control, in particular by people with disabilities, and relates to an automatic page-turning device.
  • US-A-2 755 580 discloses an automatic page-turning device constituted by a frame in the form of a desk slightly inclined relative to the horizontal, on which is mounted a frame for receiving a book, by a page handling device, by an electrical outlet, and by an on and off switch.
  • the device for maneuvering the pages of this device consists of a rotary support and drive arm for the pages to be turned, and by an alternative drive arm intended to lift the pages to allow them to be taken up by the rotary arm, these two arms being actuated by a single motor, the starting and stopping of which are carried out by means of a manual switch.
  • the apparatus according to the aforementioned publication certainly makes it possible to turn the pages of a book or a newspaper, but an individual grip of each page by means of the arms is difficult to guarantee, and a person having no ability to grasp cannot ensure its functioning.
  • an automatic page-turning device the page handling device of which consists of strips to be inserted between the pages to be turned, these strips being mounted at their ends on a guide axis. provided near an upright of the chassis, and being movable on the axis under the action of a spring.
  • these strips are held on the end of the guide axis by means of an eclipsable lock, and are actuated by an extraction and displacement device.
  • the extraction device is driven mechanically, and the control of this drive is effected by the action of a member of the user.
  • Such an apparatus makes it possible to turn individual sheets of books or notebooks, but cannot operate in a fully automatic manner, that is to say without the intervention of physical control by the user.
  • a stop of a strip on the left page in order to allow better maintenance of the pages during reading, cannot be ensured due to the mechanical spring drive of the device for extracting and moving the strips .
  • the present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.
  • an automatic page-turning device essentially constituted by a frame, by a page handling device mounted on the frame by means of uprights, the page handling device being constituted by strips to be inserted between the pages to be turned and mounted at their end on a guide axis provided near one of the uprights, these strips being movable on the axis under the action of a spring pressing on a support and guide member, which can be immobilized in the compressed position of the spring by means of a sliding latch guided in the upright, these strips being held on the end of the axis by means of an eclipsable latch, and by a device for extracting and displacement of the strips, device characterized in that on its chassis, in the form of a desk slightly inclined with respect to the horizontal, is mounted a pivoting support for supporting a frame for receiving a book or a newspaper , and a cell control optics, and in that the device for extracting and moving the strips is constituted by a carriage movable parallel to the support on transverse guides
  • the automatic page-turning device essentially consists of a chassis 1 in the form of a desk slightly inclined relative to the horizontal, on which is fixed a pivoting support 2 for supporting a frame 3 for receiving a book or a frame 4 for receiving a newspaper (FIG. 2), by a device 5 for maneuvering the pages, which is controlled in displacement by reversing relays 6, by limit switches 7, by an optical control cell 8, by an electrical outlet 38, and by an on and off switch 39.
  • the chassis 1 carries, at its front part, the pivoting support 2 by means of a bracket 9, and, at its rear part the operating device 5 by means of two end uprights 10, as well as the reversing relays 6 housed in a protective casing 11, and an electronic unit 12 for adjusting the intensity of the luminous flux and for detecting changes in this flux from the optical control cell 8, which is advantageously fixed to one of the uprights 10 of the operating device 5.
  • the pivoting support 2 is fixed to the bracket 9 by means of a hinge 9 ', and is constituted by a plate 13 provided on its upper face with two studs 14 for positioning the frames 3 and 4 and a hole 15 of passage of a screw for fixing said frames on the support 2, this plate 13 being provided on its underside, near the end opposite the hinge 9 'with a support 16 for a spring element 17, which tends to tilt the plate 13 around the hinge 9 ', this element 17 being held in the non-use position by means of a sliding latch 18.
  • the hinge 9 ' On the side opposite to the plate 13, the hinge 9 'is provided with an adjustable stop 19 allowing a pivoting adjustment of said plate 13, and, moreover, the hinge 9' is mounted in an adjustable manner in height by sliding and tightening on the bracket 9.
  • the frame 3 for receiving a book is constituted by a board which can be fixed on the support 2, while the frame 4 for receiving a newspaper is constituted by a fixed support 20 for mounting on the support 2, and by a sliding element 21 guided on the support 20 and tending to press the central part of the newspaper against a central crosspiece under the action of springs 22, or other elastic elements.
  • the device 5 for maneuvering the pages consists of strips 23 to be inserted between the traps to be turned and mounted at their end on a guide pin 24 provided near one of the uprights 10, these strips being movable on the axis 24 under the action of a spring 25 pressing on a support and guide member 26, which can be immobilized in the compressed position of the spring by means of a sliding lock 27 guided in the upright 10, the strips 23 being maintained on the end of the axis 24 by means of an eclipsable lock 29, and by a device 28 for extracting and moving the strips 23.
  • This device 28 for extracting and moving the strips 23 is constituted by a carriage 30 movable parallel to the support 2 on transverse guides by means of a screw 31 - nut 32 assembly driven by an electric motor (not shown) controlled by pulses from the electronic unit 12, and provided with a stop 33 for actuating the eclipsable lock 29, with a finger 34 for driving a strip 23 cooperating with a lug 35 provided under the stop 33 and penetrating into a groove 36 of the strip 23 ( Figure 3), and a stop 37 for actuating the limit switches 7 mounted on each upright 10 and controlling the reversing relays 6 determining the direction of rotation of the drive motor of the screw assembly 31 - nut 32.
  • the strips 23 are advantageously at least two different lengths, the shortest 23 'being intended to be inserted between the pages of a book, and the longest 23 "being inserted between the pages of a newspaper , and they are preferably made of a transparent material so as not to interfere with reading.
