Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des équipements ménagers ou de bureaux, en particulier des poubelles de cuisines ou de salles de bains et des paniers à papier, et a pour objet un dispositif pour le rechargement automatique de sachets dans des récipients.The present invention relates to the field of household or office equipment, in particular kitchen or bathroom bins and paper baskets, and relates to a device for the automatic reloading of sachets in containers.

Actuellement, les poubelles, paniers à papier, et autres récipients de ce type à usage domestique ou de bureaux, sont généralement équipés de sachets amovibles en matière synthétique de dimensions appropriées aux dimensions desdits récipients. Ces sachets amovibles sont destinés à être fermés par un lien après leur remplissage et à être déposés dans des poubelles ou conteneurs à vidange périodique.Currently, trash cans, paper baskets, and other containers of this type for household or office use are generally equipped with removable plastic bags of dimensions appropriate to the dimensions of said containers. These removable bags are intended to be closed by a link after filling and to be placed in garbage cans or containers with periodic emptying.

Ces poubelles et paniers connus présentent, cependant, l'inconvénient de nécessiter, à chaque retrait d'un sachet rempli, le remplacement de ce dernier par un sachet généralement conditionné de manière arrachable sur un rouleau disposé dans une réserve. Ainsi, ledit sachet est arraché du rouleau à un endroit donné et est placé dans son récipient éventuellement à un autre endroit, de sorte qu'un remplacement d'un sachet plein nécessite plusieurs opérations et déplacements. En outre, un changement de sachet par une personne non avertie des endroits de rangement usuels de la réserve de sachets peut s'avérer impossible à effectuer.These known bins and baskets have, however, the drawback of requiring, each time a filled sachet is removed, the latter to be replaced by a sachet generally packaged in a removable manner on a roller placed in a reserve. Thus, said sachet is torn from the roll at a given location and is placed in its container, possibly at another location, so that a replacement of a full sachet requires several operations and displacements. In addition, a change of sachet by a person not aware of the usual places of storage of the sachet reserve may prove impossible.

On connaît par US-A-4 319 694 un récipient du type poubelle de cuisine muni dans son fond d'un réceptacle de réception de sacs poubelle enroulés sur une bobine. Ce réceptacle présente, cependant, l'inconvénient d'être de constitution complexe et de nécessiter pour l'insertion de la bobine de sacs poubelle un couvercle amovible, aucune ouverture latérale n'étant prévue à cet effet dans ledit réceptacle.US-A-4 319 694 discloses a receptacle of the kitchen trash can type provided at its bottom with a receptacle for receiving trash bags wound on a reel. This receptacle has, however, the drawback of being of complex constitution and of requiring for the insertion of the reel of trash bags a removable cover, no lateral opening being provided for this purpose in said receptacle.

En outre, US-A-3 451 453 décrit une cassette de rechargement de sacs poubelle pouvant être disposée dans le fond d'une poubelle de cuisine, ou analogue, et présentant un logement spécifique de la bobine, ainsi que des pattes d'appui latérales. Une telle cassette n'est pas adaptable en fonction des formes et dimensions du récipient à équiper, ces pattes d'appui n'étant pas déformables et, elles présentent, en outre, une structure relativement complexe de réception de la bobine de sacs poubelle.In addition, US-A-3,451,453 describes a cassette for reloading trash bags which can be placed in the bottom of a kitchen trash can, or the like, and having a specific housing for the spool, as well as support legs. side. Such a cassette is not adaptable as a function of the shapes and dimensions of the container to be fitted, these support tabs not being deformable and, moreover, they have a relatively complex structure for receiving the reel of garbage bags.

Par ailleurs, DE-A-2 424 633 décrit une réserve de sacs poubelle sous forme d'une cassette à insérer dans le fond d'un récipient. Cette cassette est réalisée sur mesure en fonction des récipients dans lesquels elle est utilisée et n'est pas adaptable, notamment par déformation ou par enlèvement de matière sur ses bords, à tous types de récipients.Furthermore, DE-A-2 424 633 describes a supply of garbage bags in the form of a cassette to be inserted into the bottom of a container. This cassette is made to measure according to the containers in which it is used and is not adaptable, in particular by deformation or by removal of material on its edges, to all types of containers.

Enfin, on connaît également par CH-A-601 078 un conteneur à déchets muni d'un double fond en deux parties symétriques séparées par un intervalle et qui forment entre elles une fente longitudinale. Les deux parties formant ce double fond sont maintenues individuellement et sont réalisées sur mesure pour s'adapter à un réceptacle donné. Un tel double fond n'est pas adaptable à des récipients de types différents, en particulier de formes différentes.Finally, there is also known from CH-A-601 078 a waste container provided with a double bottom in two symmetrical parts separated by an interval and which form between them a longitudinal slot. The two parts forming this double bottom are held individually and are made to measure to adapt to a given receptacle. Such a double bottom is not adaptable to containers of different types, in particular of different shapes.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.

Elle a, en effet, pour objet un dispositif pour le rechargement automatique de sachets dans des récipients, constitué par un moyen de guidage et de distribution de sachets, sous forme d'une fente diamétrale, monté dans le fond du récipient, et par un moyen de réception d'une réserve de sachets coopérant avec ledit moyen de guidage et de distribution, caractérisé en ce que la fente diamétrale est ouverte aux extrémités et est constituée en une seule pièce avec le moyen de réception d'une réserve de sachets lors de la fabrication du récipient, ledit moyen de réception présentant une forme de cylindre pouvant être fermé à ses extrémités par des bouchons amovibles.It has, in fact, for its object a device for the automatic reloading of sachets in receptacles, constituted by a means for guiding and distributing sachets, in the form of a diametral slot, mounted in the bottom of the receptacle, and by a means for receiving a reserve of bags cooperating with said guide and distribution means, characterized in that the diametrical slot is open at the ends and is made in one piece with the means for receiving a reserve of bags during the manufacture of the container, said receiving means having a cylinder shape which can be closed at its ends by removable plugs.

Conformément à une caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif, constitué par un moyen de guidage et de distribution de sachets, et par un moyen de réception d'une réserve de sachets coopérant avec le moyen de guidage et de distribution et rapporté sur le fond d'un récipient existant de manière amovible, est caractérisé en ce qu'il est adaptable en forme et en dimension aux forme et dimension du fond du récipient.In accordance with a characteristic of the invention, the device, constituted by a means for guiding and distributing sachets, and by a means for receiving a reserve of sachets cooperating with the guiding and distributing means and attached to the bottom of an existing container in a removable manner, is characterized in that it is adaptable in shape and in size to the shape and size of the bottom of the container.

Le moyen 1 est avantageusement ouvert aux extrémités et est constitué par une fente diamétrale d'un fond intermédiaire 6 du récipient 3 et le moyen 4 sous forme d'un logement s'étendant sous ladite fente.The means 1 is advantageously open at the ends and consists of a diametrical slot of an intermediate bottom 6 of the container 3 and the means 4 in the form of a housing extending under said slot.

Conformément à l'invention, la fente diamétrale formant le moyen 1 est avantageusement constituée en une seule pièce avec le moyen 4 lors de la fabrication du récipient 3, ledit moyen 4 présentant une forme de cylindre pouvant être fermé à ses extrémités par des bouchons amovibles 9. La fente est, en outre, avantageusement munie d'évasements 10 pour la préhension du premier sachet de la réserve 5.According to the invention, the diametrical slot forming the means 1 is advantageously made in one piece with the means 4 during the manufacture of the container 3, said means 4 having a cylinder shape which can be closed at its ends by removable plugs 9. The slot is also advantageously provided with flares 10 for gripping the first bag of the reserve 5.

Les bouchons amovibles permettent d'assurer l'étanchéité du récipient 3, ce qui peut être particulièrement intéressant dans le cas d'usage du récipient comme poubelle de cuisine, dans laquelle un percement éventuel du sachet 2 pourrait avoir pour conséquence un écoulement indésirable de liquide.The removable caps make it possible to seal the container 3, which can be particularly advantageous in the case of use of the container as a kitchen bin, in which a possible puncturing of the bag 2 could result in an undesirable flow of liquid. .

Selon une autre variante de réalisation de l'invention, et comme le montrent les figures 3 et 4, le moyen 1 est avantageusement constitué par une paire de cylindres 12 ou de barres rapportés dans le récipient 3 et fixés près de son fond au moyen d'éléments de blocage 13, la réserve 5 de sachets étant simplement disposée sous lesdits cylindres 12 ou barres sur le fond du récipient 3, qui forme le moyen 4 de réception.According to another alternative embodiment of the invention, and as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the means 1 is advantageously constituted by a pair of cylinders 12 or bars added to the container 3 and fixed near its bottom by means of blocking elements 13, the reserve 5 of bags being simply disposed under said cylinders 12 or bars on the bottom of the container 3, which forms the receiving means 4.

Les figures 5 et 6 représentent une variante consommable de réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle le moyen 4 est avantageusement constitué par une barquette en matière synthétique thermoformée ou injectée, ou autre matériau servant simultanément de conditionnement pour la vente à la réserve 5 de sachets. Le moyen 1 est constitué par une fente diamétrale d'un couvercle 16 en matière synthétique ou en carton, solidaire du moyen 4. La fente est avantageusement munie d'un ou de plusieurs évasements 10 pour la préhension du premier sachet de la réserve 5. Le fond du moyen 4 est muni de bossages ou autres éléments de forme servant d'emplacements de réception de pastilles adhésives du type « double face 17 pour sa fixation dans le fond du récipient 3.Figures 5 and 6 show a consumable embodiment of the invention, in which the means 4 is advantageously constituted by a tray of thermoformed or injected synthetic material, or other material serving simultaneously as packaging for the sale to the reserve 5 of sachets . The means 1 consists of a diametrical slot of a cover 16 made of synthetic material or cardboard, integral with the means 4. The slot is advantageously provided with one or more flares 10 for gripping the first bag of the reserve 5. The bottom of the means 4 is provided with bosses or other shaped elements serving as locations for receiving adhesive pads of the “double-sided 17” type for fixing to the bottom of the container 3.

La figure 7 représente également une variante consommable du dispositif conforme à l'invention. Dans ce mode de réalisation, un fond intermédiaire 6, sous forme de grille, mais pouvant être plein, est muni du moyen 1 sous forme d'une fente diamétrale. Quatre pattes périphériques 17', déformables, en forme de « U », et munies de picots 18 permettent le positionnement et le maintien du fond intermédiaire 6 par rapport au récipient 3, au-dessus de la réserve 5 de sachets. Des pieds supplémentaires 19 ou des nervures peuvent, si nécessaire, améliorer la rigidité du fond 6, et, dans ce cas, servir avantageusement de logement 4 avec le fond du récipient 3 de la réserve de sachets 5.Figure 7 also shows a consumable variant of the device according to the invention. In this embodiment, an intermediate bottom 6, in the form of a grid, but which may be full, is provided with the means 1 in the form of a diametrical slot. Four peripheral legs 17 ′, deformable, in the shape of a “U”, and provided with pins 18 allow the positioning and the maintenance of the intermediate bottom 6 relative to the container 3, above the reserve 5 of sachets. Additional feet 19 or ribs can, if necessary, improve the rigidity of the bottom 6, and, in this case, advantageously serve as a housing 4 with the bottom of the container 3 of the reserve of sachets 5.

Conformément à une caractéristique de l'invention, le moyen 1' de guidage et de distribution de sachets et le moyen 4' de réception d'une réserve 5 sont solidaires entre eux et constitués par un élément 21 en deux parties guidées dans un corps de réception 20 avec possibilité de coulissement (figures 8 et 10). Ce mode de réalisation permet l'adaptation du dispositif à des récipients 3' de dimensions différentes, par simple déplacement de coulissement des parties de l'élément 21 dans le sens de leur écartement ou de leur rapprochement (figures 8 et 10).In accordance with a characteristic of the invention, the means 1 ′ for guiding and distributing sachets and the means 4 ′ for receiving a reserve 5 are integral with each other and consist of an element 21 in two parts guided in a body of reception 20 with the possibility of sliding (Figures 8 and 10). This embodiment allows the device to be adapted to containers 3 ′ of different dimensions, by simple sliding movement of the parts of the element 21 in the direction of their spacing or their bringing together (FIGS. 8 and 10).

Les parties de l'élément 21 sont réalisées, soit par extrusion et débitage, soit encore par injection. Dans ce dernier cas, l'extrémité des parties en saillie du corps 20 peut être fermée et protéger ainsi la réserve 5. Dans le cas d'une extrusion, les parties de l'élément 21 peuvent être pourvues de tronçons séparables suivant des amorces de cassure.The parts of the element 21 are produced, either by extrusion and debitage, or even by injection. In the latter case, the end of the projecting parts of the body 20 can be closed and thus protect the reserve 5. In the case of an extrusion, the parts of the element 21 can be provided with separable sections according to primers of break.

Le corps de réception 20 est avantageusement réalisé par extrusion et débitage à la longueur et comporte des logements longitudinaux 22, pouvant être remplis d'un lest 23 et obturés au moyen de bouchons 24 de forme correspondante, ou dans lesquels peuvent être introduites des barres de lestage 25, avantageusement télescopiques. L'utilisation de telles barres 25 permet l'adaptation du dispositif à la forme et à la dimension du fond du récipient 3'. En outre, un tel lestage permet une amélioration du maintien du dispositif dans le récipient 3'.The receiving body 20 is advantageously produced by extrusion and cutting to length and comprises longitudinal housings 22, which can be filled with ballast 23 and closed by means of plugs 24 of corresponding shape, or into which bars can be introduced. ballast 25, advantageously telescopic. The use of such bars 25 allows the device to be adapted to the shape and size of the bottom of the container 3 '. In addition, such ballasting allows an improvement in the maintenance of the device in the container 3 '.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le moyen 1' de guidage et de distribution de sachets et le moyen 4' de réception d'une réserve de sachets sont constitués directement par le corps de réception 20, qui est réalisé en deux parties reliées entre elles par des éléments intermédiaires amovibles 20' coopérant par liaison de forme, ou qui est réalisé par moulage avec prévision d'amorces de cassure (non représentées) pour leur adaptation aux dimensions du récipient 3'. Ce mode de réalisation du corps 20 permet, par enlèvement ou insertion d'un ou de plusieurs éléments intermédiaires 20', ou par cassure le long d'une amorce de cassure dans le cas d'une réalisation par moulage, d'adapter le corps 20 aux dimensions intérieures du récipient 3', le moyen 1' étant, de préférence, sous forme d'une fente ouverte aux extrémités.According to another characteristic of the invention, the means 1 ′ for guiding and distributing sachets and the means 4 ′ for receiving a reserve of sachets are formed directly by the reception body 20, which is produced in two parts linked together by removable intermediate elements 20 ′ cooperating by form bonding, or which is produced by molding with prediction of breaking points (not shown) for their adaptation to the dimensions of the container 3 ′. This embodiment of the body 20 makes it possible, by removing or inserting one or more intermediate elements 20 ′, or by breaking along a break point in the case of an embodiment by molding, to adapt the body 20 to the internal dimensions of the container 3 ', the means 1' preferably being in the form of a slot open at the ends.

Les figures 11 et 12 représentent une autre variante de réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle le dispositif est constitué par un réceptacle 26 présentant au moins un logement longitudinal 27 ouvert aux extrémités formant le moyen 4' de réception d'une réserve 5 de sachets 2, ce logement étant fermé par deux couvercles 28, amovibles ou non, dont les bords adjacents forment le moyen 1' de guidage et de distribution, et des pattes 29 s'étendent radialement sur la périphérie du réceptacle 26, ces pattes 29 étant munies de repères ou d'amorces de rupture 29' permettant leur raccourcissement. Ainsi, le dispositif peut être adapté aux dimensions du fond du récipient 3' (figure 12).Figures 11 and 12 show another alternative embodiment of the invention, in which the device consists of a receptacle 26 having at least one longitudinal housing 27 open at the ends forming the means 4 'for receiving a reserve 5 of bags 2, this housing being closed by two covers 28, removable or not, the adjacent edges of which form the means 1 'for guiding and dispensing, and lugs 29 extend radially on the periphery of the receptacle 26, these lugs 29 being provided of benchmarks or of primers of rupture 29 ′ allowing their shortening. Thus, the device can be adapted to the dimensions of the bottom of the container 3 ′ (FIG. 12).

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le réceptacle 26 est pourvu, de part et d'autre du logement 27, d'un compartiment 30 destiné à la réception d'un lest et fermé simultanément avec le logement 27 chacun par un couvercle 28 (figures 11 et 12).According to another characteristic of the invention, the receptacle 26 is provided, on both sides of the housing 27, with a compartment 30 intended for the reception of a ballast and closed simultaneously with the housing 27 each by a cover 28 (Figures 11 and 12).

Les figures 13 à 15 représentent une autre variante de réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle les moyens 1' et 4' sont constitués directement par un corps unique 31 présentant une embase 32 de positionnement sur le fond d'un récipient 3, cette embase étant pourvue de pattes radiales 33 munies de repères ou d'amorces de rupture 34. Pour son maintien sur le fond du récipient 3', l'embase 32 est munie, soit de chambres latérales 35 (figure 14 à gauche) pouvant être remplies d'un lest et fermées chacune par un couvercle 36, soit, dans des logements latéraux 37, d'inserts sous forme de tiges métalliques 38 montées par encliquetage dans des pinces élastiques 39 solidaires de l'embase 32.Figures 13 to 15 show another alternative embodiment of the invention, in which the means 1 'and 4' are formed directly by a single body 31 having a base 32 for positioning on the bottom of a container 3, this base being provided with radial lugs 33 provided with markers or rupture initiators 34. To maintain it on the bottom of the container 3 ′, the base 32 is provided with either lateral chambers 35 (FIG. 14 on the left) which can be filled with a ballast and each closed by a cover 36, or, in lateral housings 37, inserts in the form of metal rods 38 mounted by snap-fastening in elastic clamps 39 integral with the base 32.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les pattes radiales 29 ou 33 peuvent avantageusement être constituées en un matériau élastiquement déformable tel que du caoutchouc, du caoutchouc synthétique, ou autre. Un tel mode de réalisation permet une adaptation automatique du dispositif aux dimensions du fond d'un récipient 3' par simple déformation.According to another characteristic of the invention, the radial lugs 29 or 33 can advantageously be made of an elastically deformable material such as rubber, synthetic rubber, or the like. Such an embodiment allows automatic adaptation of the device to the dimensions of the bottom of a container 3 ′ by simple deformation.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif est fixé sur le fond du récipient 3', soit au moyen de ventouses solidaires de sa face inférieure, soit au moyen d'un dispositif de fixation annexe monté sur ledit fond du récipient 3' de manière démontable ou définitive et permettant le maintien de l'embase ou du corps du dispositif par coopération de forme.In accordance with another characteristic of the invention, the device is fixed to the bottom of the container 3 ′, either by means of suction cups integral with its lower face, or by means of an annex fixing device mounted on said bottom of the container 3 'in a removable or final manner and allowing the support of the base or the body of the device by form cooperation.

Grâce à l'invention, il est possible d'équiper des récipients, en particulier des poubelles de cuisines ou de salles de bains, ou des paniers à papier d'un dispositif de rechargement automatique de sachets intégré aux récipients, ou rapporté dans ces derniers. Ainsi, les sachets, généralement conditionnés en rouleau, peuvent être extraits automatiquement après chaque retrait du sachet précédent rempli, la séparation entre les extrémités desdits sachets étant réalisée lors de ce retrait.Thanks to the invention, it is possible to equip receptacles, in particular kitchen or bathroom bins, or paper baskets with an automatic bag reloading device integrated into the receptacles, or attached to them . Thus, the sachets, generally packaged in a roll, can be extracted automatically after each withdrawal of the previous filled sachet, the separation between the ends of said sachets being carried out during this withdrawal.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés aux dessins annexés.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown in the accompanying drawings.
