Description

La présente invention est relative aux éléments utilisés pour l'agencement de salles d'exposition, de magasins et autres lieux.The present invention relates to the elements used for the arrangement of exhibition halls, shops and other places.

Plus précisément, elle concerne les éléments d'agencement de ce genre qui comprennent des panneaux verticaux pourvus de rainures horizontales, la section de chacune des rainures du panneau présentant une forme générale en T lui permettant de recevoir un crochet coudé de fixation d'un accessoire d'équipement.More precisely, it relates to arrangement elements of this kind which include vertical panels provided with horizontal grooves, the section of each of the grooves of the panel having a general T shape allowing it to receive an angled hook for fixing an accessory. of equipment.

On connaît un tel panneau du US-A-3 235 218. Ce panneau est composé d'un contreplaqué qui sur sa face frontale est pourvu d'évidements horizontaux et recouvert par une feuille comportant des fentes horizontales disposées en regard des évidements du contreplaqué. Ces évidements sont plus larges que les fentes et il est ainsi obtenu des rainures horizontales ayant une forme générale en T. Ces rainures sont destinées à recevoir des crochets de retenue d'accessoires sur le panneau.Such a panel is known from US-A-3,235,218. This panel is composed of a plywood which on its front face is provided with horizontal recesses and covered by a sheet comprising horizontal slots disposed opposite the recesses of the plywood. These recesses are wider than the slots and horizontal grooves are thus obtained having a general T shape. These grooves are intended to receive hooks for retaining accessories on the panel.

On connaît également du US-A-4 508 231 un panneau composé de sections verticales superposées et comportant des deux côtés des rainures dans lesquelles les extrémités de barres, de bras ou d'étagères présentant une forme en crochet peuvent être insérées en vue de leur maintien en place à des niveaux différents sur le panneau.Also known from US-A-4 508 231 is a panel composed of superposed vertical sections and comprising on both sides grooves in which the ends of bars, arms or shelves having a hook shape can be inserted for their holding in place at different levels on the panel.

De tels panneaux ont l'avantage d'être extrêmement pratiques car il est possible d'adapter sur ceux-ci de nombreux accessoires d'équipement, de natures diverses, par exemple des étagères et autres supports destinés à recevoir des objets à présenter. De plus, ces accessoires d'équipement étant fixés de façon amovible, ils peuvent être déplacés à tous moments pour modifier l'agencement prévu ou pour démonter l'ensemble réalisé afin de le stocker en vue d'une nouvelle utilisation des éléments correspondants, lorsque ceux-ci sont employés pour réaliser des agencements dans des expositions temporaires.Such panels have the advantage of being extremely practical because it is possible to adapt to them numerous equipment accessories, of various natures, for example shelves and other supports intended to receive objects to be presented. In addition, these equipment accessories being detachably fixed, they can be moved at any time to modify the planned arrangement or to disassemble the assembly produced in order to store it for a new use of the corresponding elements, when these are used to make arrangements in temporary exhibitions.

Cependant, les panneaux rainurés actuellement employés pour un tel usage ont l'inconvénient d'être relativement lourds et de présenter un prix de revient élevé. Ceci est dû au fait que ceux-ci sont en général constitués par des panneaux relativement épais sur la face avant desquels sont pratiquées des rainures présentant une section coudée. Or, la réalisation de telles rainures est particulièrement onéreuse.However, the grooved panels currently used for such use have the disadvantage of being relatively heavy and of presenting a high cost price. This is due to the fact that these generally consist of relatively thick panels on the front face of which are formed grooves having a bent section. However, the production of such grooves is particularly expensive.

C'est pourquoi la présente invention a pour objet un ensemble d'éléments d' agencement du type en cause, dans lequel les panneaux rainurés sont réalisés de façon différente afin de ne pas comporter les inconvénients des panneaux actuels. Par ailleurs, cet ensemble d'éléments est conçu de manière à augmenter encore les possibilités d'agencement et d'équipement de salles d'exposition, de magasins ou autres lieux similaires.This is why the present invention relates to a set of arrangement elements of the type in question, in which the grooved panels are produced in a different way so as not to have the drawbacks of current panels. Furthermore, this set of elements is designed in such a way as to further increase the possibilities of arrangement and equipment of exhibition halls, shops or other similar places.

A cet effet, l'ensemble d'éléments selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que chacun des panneaux verticaux prévus dans cet ensemble est constitué par un panneau proprement dit sur la face avant duquel sont fixés horizontalement, les uns au dessus des autres, des profilés, en métal ou autre matériau approprié, avec entre eux un intervalle formant l'une des rainures du panneau correspondant, chacun de ces profilés formant à la fois :

  • sur le devant, une glissière verticale apte à recevoir une lame décorative faisant partie du présent ensemble d'éléments,
  • à l'arrière, et sur chacun de ses bords horizontaux, un décrochement constituant une gorge ouverte dans la rainure correspondante.
To this end, the set of elements according to the invention is characterized in that each of the vertical panels provided in this set is constituted by a panel proper on the front face of which are fixed horizontally, one above the other, profiles, of metal or other suitable material, with a gap between them forming one of the grooves of the corresponding panel, each of these profiles forming at the same time:
  • on the front, a vertical slide capable of receiving a decorative blade forming part of the present set of elements,
  • at the rear, and on each of its horizontal edges, a recess constituting an open groove in the corresponding groove.

Selon une autre caractéristique, chaque panneau vertical du présent ensemble comporte un élément d'encadrement comprenant deux montants verticaux réunis à leur base par un longeron horizontal, un autre longeron étant rapporté à l'extrémité supérieure pour fermer l'élément d'encadrement du panneau.According to another characteristic, each vertical panel of the present assembly comprises a framing element comprising two vertical uprights joined at their base by a horizontal spar, another spar being attached to the upper end to close the framing element of the panel .

De préférence, les montants de ces éléments d'encadrement sont pourvus de moyens aptes à permettre la fixation des panneaux verticaux sur des supports appropriés faisant partie du présent ensemble, par exemple des poteaux verticaux pourvus d'un socle inférieur, ces moyens de montage pouvant consister en de simples lumières ménagées dans les montants verticaux pour permettra la fixation de ceux-ci sur des crochets prévus sur les supports correspondants.Preferably, the uprights of these framing elements are provided with means capable of allowing the fixing of the vertical panels on suitable supports forming part of the present assembly, for example vertical posts provided with a lower base, these mounting means being able consist of simple lights made in the vertical uprights to allow the fixing of these on hooks provided on the corresponding supports.

Les éléments du présent ensemble permettent de réaliser des panneaux d'exposition pouvant être installés dans une salle d'exposition, un magasin de vente ou tout autre lieu. Cependant, ces éléments peuvent également être utilisés pour la réalisation de meubles susceptibles de servir à l'exposition ou à la présentation d'objets divers.The elements of this set make it possible to produce exhibition panels that can be installed in an exhibition hall, a sales store or any other place. However, these elements can also be used for the production of furniture capable of being used for the exhibition or presentation of various objects.

Des modes particuliers de réalisation de l'invention sont indiqués dans les revendications 4 et 5.Particular embodiments of the invention are indicated in claims 4 and 5.

Du reste, d'autres particularités et avantages de l'objet de l'invention apparaitront au cours de la description suivante. Celle-ci est donnée en référence au dessin annexé à simple titre indicatif, et sur lequel :

  • La figure 1 est une vue en perspective des principaux éléments constitutifs d'un panneau rainuré selon l'invention.
  • La figure 2 est une vue partielle en coupe verticale d'un tel panneau.
  • La figure 3 est une vue partielle en coupe horizontale de l'un des bords de ce panneau.
  • La figure 4 est une vue similaire à la figure 2, mais qui représente une autre forme de réalisation d'un panneau rainuré selon l'invention.

  • La figure 6 est une vue en perspective représentant un mobilier d'exposition réalisé à partir de panneaux rainurés et d'éléments d'agencement selon l'invention.
Moreover, other features and advantages of the subject of the invention will appear during the following description. This is given with reference to the attached drawing for information only, and in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of the main components of a grooved panel according to the invention.
  • Figure 2 is a partial view in vertical section of such a panel.
  • Figure 3 is a partial view in horizontal section of one of the edges of this panel.
  • Figure 4 is a view similar to Figure 2, but which shows another embodiment of a grooved panel according to the invention.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view showing a set of grooved panels according to the invention which can be used for the exhibition of various objects.
  • Figure 6 is a perspective view showing an exhibition furniture made from grooved panels and arrangement elements according to the invention.

Comme représenté sur les figures 1 à 3, chaque panneau vertical rainuré du présent ensemble est constitué par un panneau 1 proprement dit sur la face avant 2 duquel sont rapportés des profilés 3 en métal ou autre matériau approprié , par exemple en matière plastique extrudée. Quant au panneau 1 proprement dit, il peut être lui-même en bois, en métal ou autre matériau approprié, son épaisseur pouvant être plus ou moins importante. Les profilés sont fixés horizontalement les uns au dessus des autres, par exemple au moyen de vis 4 en réservant entre eux un intervalle E formant l'une des rainures 5 du panneau correspondant.As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, each grooved vertical panel of the present assembly consists of a panel 1 proper on the front face 2 from which profiles 3 of metal or other suitable material, for example of extruded plastic, are attached. As for the panel 1 itself, it can itself be made of wood, metal or other suitable material, its thickness may be more or less important. The profiles are fixed horizontally one above the other, for example by means of screws 4, reserving between them a gap E forming one of the grooves 5 of the corresponding panel.

Les profilés 3 présentent une section en forme générale de U et leur fond 6 est appliqué contre le panneau 1 correspondant. Toutefois, les bords inférieur et supérieur de ces profilés sont coudés en forme général de S ou de S inversé, de façon à former respectivement :

  • sur le devant, une glissière verticale 7 apte à recevoir une lame décorative 8,
  • à l'arrière, un décrochement 9 constituant une gorge 10 ouverte dans la rainure correspondante 5 du panneau réalisé.
The profiles 3 have a generally U-shaped section and their bottom 6 is applied against the corresponding panel 1. However, the lower and upper edges of these sections are bent in the general shape of an S or an inverted S, so as to form respectively:
  • on the front, a vertical slide 7 able to receive a decorative blade 8,
  • at the rear, a recess 9 constituting a groove 10 open in the corresponding groove 5 of the panel produced.

Ainsi, la section d'ensemble des diverses rainures 5 présente en quelque sorte la forme d'un T dont la tête est disposée verticalement (voir figure 2).Thus, the overall section of the various grooves 5 has in a way the shape of a T, the head of which is arranged vertically (see FIG. 2).

Les lames verticales 8 constituent la face apparente du panneau. Elles peuvent être réalisées en tout matériau voulu, par exemple : bois, métal, matière plastique...Bien entendu, ces lames peuvent être de diverses couleurs et elles peuvent comporter tout revêtement ou tout décor voulu.The vertical blades 8 constitute the visible face of the panel. They can be made of any desired material, for example: wood, metal, plastic, etc. Of course, these blades can be of various colors and they can include any coating or any desired decoration.

Comme réprésenté sur les figures 1 et 3, le panneau rainuré ainsi constitué est disposé entre deux montants désignés chacun par la référence générale 11 et qui sont réunis à leur base par un longeron horizontal 12 de façon à constituer un élément d'encadrement pour le panneau correspondant. A sa part le supérieure cet élément d'encadrement est fermé par un autre longeron horizontal 13 qui est fixé de façon amovible sur les extremités supérieures des montants 11.As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the grooved panel thus formed is arranged between two uprights each designated by the general reference 11 and which are joined at their base by a horizontal beam 12 so as to constitute a framing element for the panel corresponding. The upper part, this framing element, is closed by another horizontal beam 13 which is removably fixed to the upper ends of the uprights 11.

Dans l'exemple représenté, chacun de ces montants est constitué par un tube métallique 14 de section carrée ou rectangulaire dont la face interne porte un profilé 15 de section en U. Ce dernier est destiné à recevoir le bord correspondant 16 du panneau 1 respectif, ce bord étant rainuré à la fois sur sa face avant et sur sa face arrière.In the example shown, each of these uprights consists of a metal tube 14 of square section or rectangular, the internal face of which carries a profile 15 of U-shaped cross section. The latter is intended to receive the corresponding edge 16 of the respective panel 1, this edge being grooved both on its front face and on its rear face.

De plus, le profilé 15 est disposé en retrait par rapport à la face avant du montant 14 afin de ménager un espace 17 destiné à servir de logement pour l'extrémité correspondante des différents profilés 3 rapportés contre le panneau 1 (voir figure 3). L'agencement est tel que la face avant des ces profilés se trouve située sensiblement sur le même plan vertical que la face correspondante des montants 14. Ainsi, l'ensemble présente un aspect esthétique.In addition, the section 15 is set back relative to the front face of the upright 14 in order to provide a space 17 intended to serve as a housing for the corresponding end of the various sections 3 fitted against the panel 1 (see FIG. 3). The arrangement is such that the front face of these profiles is located substantially on the same vertical plane as the corresponding face of the uprights 14. Thus, the assembly has an aesthetic appearance.

Les montants 14 sont pourvus de moyens permettant leur montage amovible sur des supports appropriés. Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure 1, ces moyens de montage consistent en de simples lumières 18 permettant d'accrocher les montants 14 sur des crochets 19 portés par des poteaux verticaux 20 dont le pied est muni d'un socle 21. Ainsi, il est possible de fixer verticalement un panneau rainuré 22 selon l'invention entre deux poteaux verticaux et on peut réaliser un ensemble de panneaux de présentation tel que celui représenté à la figure 5.The uprights 14 are provided with means allowing their removable mounting on suitable supports. In the example shown in FIG. 1, these mounting means consist of simple slots 18 making it possible to hang the uprights 14 on hooks 19 carried by vertical posts 20, the base of which is provided with a base 21. Thus, it is possible to vertically fix a grooved panel 22 according to the invention between two vertical posts and a set of presentation panels such as that shown in FIG. 5 can be produced.

Du fait même de leur structure, les panneaux de cet ensemble peuvent recevoir divers accessoires pourvus de crochets coudés de fixation. Ainsi, ils peuvent recevoir des étagères horizontales 23 ou des étagères inclinées 24 dont l'extrémité arrière est munie de crochets coudés 25. Ces derniers peuvent être engagés dans les rainures 5 en présentant les étagères 23 dans une position inclinée vers le haut, puis en les faisant basculer dans leur position définitive. De préférence, ces étagères sont également pourvues de bras de soutien 26 faisant saillie vers le bas en étant inclinées vers l'arrière. Les extrémités libres 27 de ces bras de soutien peuvent alors être engagées dans une rainure 5 se trouvant à un niveau inférieur à celle à l'intérieur de laquelle sont engagés les crochets 25 (voir figure 2).By virtue of their structure, the panels of this assembly can receive various accessories provided with angled fixing hooks. Thus, they can receive horizontal shelves 23 or inclined shelves 24, the rear end of which is provided with bent hooks 25. The latter can be engaged in the grooves 5 by presenting the shelves 23 in an upwardly inclined position, then in causing them to tilt into their final position. Preferably, these shelves are also provided with support arms 26 projecting downwards by being inclined towards the back. The free ends 27 of these support arms can then be engaged in a groove 5 located at a level lower than that inside which the hooks 25 are engaged (see FIG. 2).

Dans ces conditions, les étagères 23 et 24 se trouvent parfaitement immobilisées et elles sont en mesure de recevoir des charges relativement importantes. A ce sujet, il convient de noter qu'en raison même de la structure particulière des panneaux rainurés selon l'invention, et notamment de la présence d'un panneau proprement dit 1 s'étendant de façon continue sur toute la hauteur, ces panneaux ont l'avantage d'être extrêmement robustes et rigides, ce qui leur permet de supporter des charges importantes.Under these conditions, the shelves 23 and 24 are perfectly immobilized and they are able to receive relatively large loads. In this regard, it should be noted that because of the particular structure of the grooved panels according to the invention, and in particular the presence of a panel proper 1 extending continuously over the entire height, these panels have the advantage of being extremely robust and rigid, which allows them to support heavy loads.

Bien entendu, ces panneaux peuvent recevoir des accessoires d'équipement autres que les étagères 23 et 24. Ainsi ils peuvent recevoir tout autre type de supports susceptibles de supporter des objets à présenter, ces supports étant pourvus de crochets arrière 25, de fixation et éventuellement de bras inférieurs 26 de soutien. Ainsi ces supports peuvent consister en des bras horizontaux ou inclinés pouvant recevoir des cintres à vêtements ou tout autre objet voulu.Of course, these panels can receive equipment accessories other than the shelves 23 and 24. Thus they can receive any other type of support capable of supporting objects to be presented, these supports being provided with rear hooks 25, fixing and possibly of lower support arms 26. Thus, these supports can consist of horizontal or inclined arms which can receive clothes hangers or any other desired object.

La figure 4 représente une variante des panneaux rainurés selon l'invention. Le panneau correspondant est constitué par un panneau proprement dit la sur chacune des faces duquel sont rapportés des profilés 3a identiques au profilé 3 prévu dans la précédente forme de réalisation. Du reste, la disposition de ces profilés est la même, de sorte que le panneau rainuré ainsi constitué, désigné dans son ensemble par la référence générale 22a, peut recevoir des accessoires d'équipement sur l'une et l'autre de ses deux faces. Bien en tendu , un tel panneau 22a peut être combiné avec un ou plusieurs panneaux 22 tels que décrits précédemment. Comme déjà indiqué, ces divers panneaux peuvent être utilisés pour réaliser un ensemble de panneaux d'exposition ou des cloisons de séparation susceptibles d'être équipés d'accessoires divers sur l'une ou moins de leurs deux faces. Cependant, ces panneaux et les autres éléments du présent ensemble peuvent également être employés pour réaliser des meubles à usage divers qui constituent en eux -mêmes l'un des objets de la présente invention.FIG. 4 represents a variant of the grooved panels according to the invention. The corresponding panel is constituted by a panel proper on each of the faces of which are reported profiles 3a identical to the profile 3 provided in the previous embodiment. Moreover, the arrangement of these profiles is the same, so that the grooved panel thus formed, designated as a whole by the general reference 22a, can receive equipment accessories on either of its two faces. . While stretched, such a panel 22a can be combined with one or more panels 22 as described above. As already indicated, these various panels can be used to create a set of exhibition panels or partition walls capable of being fitted with various accessories on one or less of their two faces. However, these panels and the other elements of the present set can also be used to make furniture for various uses which constitute in themselves one of the objects of the present invention.

Ainsi la figure 6 représente un exemple de réalisation d'un meuble constitué par plusieurs panneaux 22 de largeur différente qui sont combinés avec des coffres 28 pour constituer un mobilier d'équipement. Ces divers éléments peuvent alors être réunis au moyen d'organes d'assemblage appropriés. Bien entendu, les panneaux 22 peuvent alors recevoir divers accessoires d'équipement, par exemple des étagères 23.Thus, FIG. 6 represents an exemplary embodiment of a piece of furniture constituted by several panels 22 of different width which are combined with chests 28 to constitute equipment furniture. These various elements can then be brought together by means of suitable assembly members. Of course, the panels 22 can then receive various equipment accessories, for example shelves 23.

Mais la réalisation représentée à la figure 6 ne constitue qu'un exemple. En effet, les éléments d'agencement selon l'invention peuvent être utilisés pour réaliser des meubles de type différent. De plus, ces éléments peuvent à tout moment être démontés très facilement pour modifier l'agencement des meubles ainsi réalisés ou en vue de leur stockage jusqu'à une nouvelle utilisation, si ceux-ci sont employés pour la réalisation d'agencement dans des expositions temporaires.But the embodiment shown in Figure 6 is only one example. Indeed, the arrangement elements according to the invention can be used to make furniture of different types. In addition, these elements can be dismantled very easily at any time to modify the arrangement of the furniture thus produced or for storage until a new use, if these are used for the realization of arrangement in exhibitions. temporary.

Par ailleurs, les éléments selon l'invention peuvent faire l'objet de diverses variantes. Ainsi, les poteaux verticaux 20 représentés à la figure 5 peuvent être remplacés par tout autre type de supports aptes à supporter les bords des panneaux 22. D'autre part, les montants 11 des éléments d'encadrement peuvent eux -mêmes être réalisés de façon différente.Furthermore, the elements according to the invention can be the subject of various variants. Thus, the vertical posts 20 shown in Figure 5 can be replaced by any other type of support capable of supporting the edges of the panels 22. On the other hand, the uprights 11 of the framing elements can themselves be made so different.
