Description

L'invention concerne une barrière de parking du type comportant un élément en forme d'un arceau dont les jambes sont articulées à leur extrémité libre à des dispositifs ancrés au sol, de façon à permettre un mouvement de pivotement de l'arceau entre une position abaissée, avantageusement plaquée au sol, et une position relevée et, le cas échéant, une jambe de verrouillage de l'arceau dans sa position relevée, variable en longueur et articulée à une extrémité à l'arceau et par son autre extrémité à un dispositif ancré au sol, à un endroit éloigné de la ligne droite reliant les deux dispositifs d'articulation des jambes de l'arceau.The invention relates to a parking barrier of the type comprising an element in the form of a hoop whose legs are articulated at their free end to devices anchored to the ground, so as to allow a pivoting movement of the hoop between a position lowered, advantageously pressed to the ground, and a raised position and, if necessary, a locking leg of the arch in its raised position, variable in length and articulated at one end to the arch and by its other end to a device anchored to the ground, at a location distant from the straight line connecting the two hinge devices of the roll bar.

Des barrières de parking de ce type sont déjà connues. Pour les amener de leur position abaissée au sol dans leur position relevée, il faut se baisser et les relever à la main. De plus, une fois déverrouillées dans leur position relevée, elles pivotent dans leur position abaissée, sous l'effet de leur propre poids et risquent ainsi de tomber sur les pieds des personnes n'ayant pas retiré leur pieds à temps.Parking barriers of this type are already known. To bring them from their lowered position on the ground to their raised position, you have to bend down and raise them by hand. In addition, once unlocked in their raised position, they pivot in their lowered position, under the effect of their own weight and thus risk falling on the feet of people who have not removed their feet in time.

L'obligation de se baisser jusqu'au sol pour atteindre la barrière est un inconvénient sérieux pour certaines personnes, telles que des personnes agées en général et en particulier pour lesquelles un tel mouvement d'abaissement est douloureux. En outre, la personne qui relève la barrière risque de se salir les mains ou les gants lorsque la barrière au contact du sol est souillée par la poussière et la terre.The obligation to bend down to the ground to reach the barrier is a serious disadvantage for some people, such as the elderly in general and in particular for whom such a lowering movement is painful. In addition, the person lifting the barrier may get their hands or gloves dirty when the barrier in contact with the ground is soiled with dust and earth.

L'invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients.The invention aims to overcome these drawbacks.

Pour atteindre ce but, la barrière selon l'invention comporte des moyens de rappel de l'arceau dans sa position relevée.To achieve this object, the barrier according to the invention comprises means for returning the arch to its raised position.

Dans un premier mode avantageux de l'invention, les moyens de rappel sont formés par au moins un organe élastiquement déformable monté dans une jambe de l'arceau en prenant appui par ses extrémités à celle-ci et au dispositif ancré au sol, de façon à être élastiquement déformé lors du pivotement de la barrière vers sa position abaissée.In a first advantageous embodiment of the invention, the return means are formed by at least one elastically deformable member mounted in one leg of the arch, bearing at its ends against the latter and the device anchored to the ground, so to be elastically deformed during the pivoting of the barrier towards its lowered position.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, l'organe élastiquement déformable est formé par un ressort hélicoïdal, enroulé autour de l'axe d'articulation de la jambe d'arceau, au dispositif ancré au sol.According to an advantageous characteristic, the elastically deformable member is formed by a helical spring, wound around the axis of articulation of the hoop leg, to the device anchored to the ground.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, les moyens de rappel sont formés par un ressort de traction disposé dans la jambe de verrouillage et fixé par une extrémité au dispositif ancrage au sol et à son autre extrémité à ladite jambe, le ressort étant sollicité en traction lors du pivotement de la barrière vers sa position abaissée.In another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the return means are formed by a tension spring arranged in the locking leg and fixed by one end to the anchoring device on the ground and at its other end to said leg, the spring being stressed in tension when the barrier is pivoted to its lowered position.

L'invention sera mieux comprise, et d'autres buts, caractéristiques, détails et avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement au cours de la description détaillée qui va suivre faite en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple illustrant deux modes de réalisation de l'invention, et dans lesquels :

  • Les figures 7 et 8 sont des vues en coupe, à plus grande échelle et montrent le détail indiqué en VII à la figure 5, dans des positions respectivement relevée et abaissée de la barrière.
The invention will be better understood, and other objects, characteristics, details and advantages thereof will appear more clearly during the detailed description which follows, made with reference to the appended schematic drawings given solely by way of example illustrating two embodiments of the invention, and in which:
  • Figure 1 is a perspective view of a parking barrier according to the present invention;
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view along the line II-II of Figure 1;
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view along line III-III of Figure 2;
  • Figure 4 is a sectional view along the line IV-IV of Figure 2;

  • Figure 6 is a sectional view similar to Figure 5, but showing the barrier in its lowered position and
  • Figures 7 and 8 are sectional views, on a larger scale and show the detail indicated in VII in Figure 5, in respectively raised and lowered positions of the barrier.

La figure 1 montre de façon générale, une barrière de parking, qui comprend une structure en forme d'un arceau 1 qui est articulé aux extrémités libres de ses jambes 2 à des dispositifs 3 fixés au sol, en forme de sabots, de façon que l'arceau soit susceptible de pivoter autour des axes horizontaux 4 entre une position relevée représentée en traits continus et une position abaissée ou l'arceau est avantageusement plaqué au sol, comme cela est illustré en traits interrompus à la figure 1. La barrière de parking comporte en outre un organe de verrouillage réalisé sous forme d'une jambe 6 variable en longueur, avantageusement réalisée sous forme d'un tube télescopique. Cette jambe de verrouillage est articulée par l'intermédiaire d'un élément en forme d'un collier 7 à la partie horizontale de la barrière. L'autre extrémité de la jambe de verrouillage 6 est montée pivotante autour d'un axe horizontal 8 d'un dispositif 9 ancré au sol et également réalisé sous forme d'un sabot. Ce dernier est situé à une certaine distance de la ligne droite reliant les deux sabots 3. Ainsi lors du pivotement de l'arceau 1, la jambe télescopique 6 varie en longueur, comme cela ressort clairement de la figure 1. Une serrure 10 permet de verrouiller les deux éléments télescopiques de la jambe dans la position relevée de l'arceau. La structure de la barrière, qui vient d'être décrite jusqu'ici est connue en soi.FIG. 1 generally shows a parking barrier, which comprises a structure in the form of a hoop 1 which is articulated at the free ends of its legs 2 to devices 3 fixed to the ground, in the form of hooves, so that the arch is capable of pivoting around the horizontal axes 4 between a raised position shown in solid lines and a lowered position or the arch is advantageously placed on the ground, as illustrated in broken lines in Figure 1. The parking barrier further comprises a locking member produced in the form of a leg 6 variable in length, advantageously produced in the form of a telescopic tube. This locking leg is articulated by means of a collar-shaped element 7 to the horizontal part of the barrier. The other end of the locking leg 6 is pivotally mounted around a horizontal axis 8 of a device 9 anchored to the ground and also produced in the form of a shoe. The latter is located at a certain distance from the straight line connecting the two shoes 3. Thus during the pivoting of the arch 1, the telescopic leg 6 varies in length, as is clear from FIG. 1. A lock 10 makes it possible to lock the two telescopic elements of the leg in the rolled up position. The structure of the barrier, which has just been described so far, is known per se.

Conformément à l'invention, la barrière est pourvue de moyens de rappel de l'arceau 1 dans sa position relevée. Ces moyens évitent que l'arceau, après avoir été déverrouillé à l'aide de la clé 10, puisse pivoter sous l'effet de son seul poids, dans sa position abaissée. Ces moyens de rappel éliminent également l'obligation de relever l'arceau à la main de sa position abaissée vers sa position relevée.According to the invention, the barrier is provided with means for returning the arch 1 to its raised position. These means prevent the hoop, after having been unlocked using the key 10, from being able to pivot under the effect of its sole weight, in its lowered position. These return means also eliminate the obligation to raise the hoop by hand from its lowered position to its raised position.

Dans le mode de réalisation représenté aux figures 2 à 4, les moyens de rappel comportent, associés avantageusement à chaque jambe de l'arceau 1, un ressort hélicoïdal 12 qui est enroulé autour de l'axe de pivotement 4 logé dans le sabot 3 et dont les extrémités 13, 14 sont fixées ou retenues respectivement par la surface interne de la jambe d'arceau et par un organe tel qu'une goupille 15 solidaire du sabot. Le ressort 12 est disposé de telle façon qu'elle s'arme lors du pivotement de l'arceau 1 de sa position relevée dans sa position abaissée.In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the return means comprise, advantageously associated with each leg of the arch 1, a helical spring 12 which is wound around the pivot axis 4 housed in the shoe 3 and whose ends 13, 14 are fixed or retained respectively by the internal surface of the arch leg and by a member such as a pin 15 secured to the shoe. The spring 12 is arranged so that it arms during the pivoting of the arch 1 from its raised position to its lowered position.

L'arceau est verrouillable dans sa position abaissée, pour éviter qu'il pivote sous l'effet du ressort 12 en direction de sa position relevée, une fois plaqué au sol. A cette fin, on a prévu, dans le mode de réalisation représenté, au niveau de l'extrémité libre de la jambe de l'arceau 1, un évidement 17 dans laquelle peut s'engager partiellement une bille 18, sous l'effet d'un ressort 19 logé dans un boîtier 20 solidaire du sabot 2. Le boîtier 20 comporte à son extrémité s'ouvrant vers l'intérieur du sabot 2 une partie formant lèvre (non représentée) de retenue de la bille 19 tout en permettant son déplacement en direction horizontale sous l'effet ou à l'encontre du ressort 19.The hoop is lockable in its lowered position, to prevent it from pivoting under the effect of the spring 12 in the direction of its raised position, once pressed against the ground. To this end, provision has been made, in the mode of embodiment shown, at the free end of the leg of the arch 1, a recess 17 in which a ball 18 can partially engage, under the effect of a spring 19 housed in a housing 20 integral with the shoe 2. The housing 20 has at its end opening towards the inside of the shoe 2 a lip-forming part (not shown) for retaining the ball 19 while allowing it to move in the horizontal direction under the effect or against of spring 19.

Comme il ressort des figures 2 et 3, l'évidement 17 est disposé dans la jambe de l'arceau 1, axialement à une certaine distance de l'axe de pivotement 4. Le boîtier 20 est placé dans le sabot 2 de telle manière que la bille 18 puisse s'engager dans l'évidement 17, sous l'effet du ressort 19, lorsque l'arceau occupe sa position abaissée plaqué au sol, illustré à la figure 2.As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the recess 17 is disposed in the leg of the hoop 1, axially at a certain distance from the pivot axis 4. The housing 20 is placed in the shoe 2 so that the ball 18 can engage in the recess 17, under the effect of the spring 19, when the hoop occupies its lowered position pressed against the ground, illustrated in FIG. 2.

L'arceau peut être libéré en exerçant sur celui-ci une fore ascendante suffisante pour que la bille 18 soit repoussée à l'encontre du ressort 19 vers l'intérieur du boîtier 20 par les parois inclinées de façon appropriée de l'évidement 17. Pour pouvoir appliquer cette force ascendante, on peut prévoir à l'arceau une patte d'attaque 22 qui permet de relever l'arceau à l'aide du pied. La patte peut être réalisée en matière plastique ou en caoutchouc et fixée de toute manière connue appropriée à l'arceau.The arch can be released by exerting on it a sufficient upward drilling so that the ball 18 is pushed against the spring 19 towards the interior of the housing 20 by the appropriately inclined walls of the recess 17. In order to be able to apply this upward force, it is possible to provide the hoop with an attack tab 22 which makes it possible to raise the hoop using the foot. The tab can be made of plastic or rubber and fixed in any known manner suitable for the arch.

Dans le deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention, qui est représenté aux figures 5 à 8, les moyens de rappel sont formés par un ressort de traction 23 qui est disposé sensiblement axialement à l'intérieur de la jambe télescopique de verrouillage 6. A son extrémité supérieure le ressort est fixé à un plot de fixation 28 qui est solidaire à l'extrémité de la jambe 6 près de l'arceau 1. L'autre extrémité du ressort 21 est fixée à un élément de fixation 29 qui est solidaire du sabot 2. Comme il ressort notamment de la figure 6, le plot de fixation 28 et l'élément de fixation 29 sont disposés de façon que le plot de contact soit situé à un niveau en dessous de celui de l'élément de fixation 29, lorsque l'arceau atteint sa position plaquée au sol. Par conséquent le ressort exerce une force qui tend à retenir l'arceau au sol. Pour relever l'arceau, il suffit d'exercer par exemple avec le pied une faible force ascendante pour vaincre la composante de force d'application au sol de l'arceau et pour amorcer le pivotement de l'arceau vers sa position relevée, sous l'effet du ressort 23.In the second embodiment of the invention, which is shown in Figures 5 to 8, the return means are formed by a tension spring 23 which is disposed substantially axially inside the telescopic locking leg 6. A its upper end, the spring is fixed to a fixing stud 28 which is secured to the end of the leg 6 near the arch 1. The other end of the spring 21 is fixed to a fixing element 29 which is integral with the shoe 2. As is apparent in particular from FIG. 6, the fixing stud 28 and the fixing element 29 are arranged so that the contact stud is located at a level below that of the fixing element 29, when the hoop reaches its position pressed against the ground. Consequently, the spring exerts a force which tends to retain the arch on the ground. To raise the roll bar, it is sufficient to exert, for example with the foot, a small upward force to overcome the force component applying to the ground of the roll bar and to initiate the pivoting of the roll bar towards its raised position, under the effect of spring 23.

Pour permettre le pivotement de l'arceau 1 l'extrémité inférieure du tube télescopique 6 présente une fente longitudinale ou un évidement 30 dans lequel peut s'engager la partie avant du sabot 9 qui porte l'organe de fixation 29 du ressort 23.To allow the hoop 1 to pivot, the lower end of the telescopic tube 6 has a longitudinal slot or a recess 30 in which the front part of the shoe 9 which carries the fixing member 29 of the spring 23 can engage.

Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, la barrière peut être verrouillable automatiquement dans sa position relevée à l'aide d'une serrure d'une structure connue en soi et comprenant un doigt à ressort escamotable, qui passe au-dessus du pêne de la serrure, le retrait du doigt étant effectué à l'aide d'une clé.According to another advantageous characteristic of the invention, the barrier can be automatically locked in its raised position using a lock of a structure known per se and comprising a retractable spring finger, which passes over the bolt of the lock, removing the finger using a key.

Le fonctionnement et les avantages de la barrière selon l'invention ressortent de façon évidente de la description de sa structure.The operation and the advantages of the barrier according to the invention are evident from the description of its structure.

En effet, après le déverrouillage à l'aide de la clé 10, une poussée provoque l'abaissement de la barrière. Celle-ci se maintient à une distance prédéterminée du sol, en fonction du dimensionnement des moyens de rappel. Cette distance pourrait être de 10 cm. On évite ainsi que la barrière frappe un pied qui pourrait se trouver en dessous. Une pression du pied sur la barrière la plaque au niveau du sol. Pour relever ensuite la barrière, une poussée par exemple du bout du pied vers le haut est suffisante pour dépasser la force qui la bloque au sol. Ensuite la barrière se relève jusqu'à une hauteur suffisante pour pouvoir la saisir par la main sans être obligé de se baisser. Puis la barrière est ramenée manuellement dans sa position relevée. Le cas échéant elle pourrait se verrouiller automatiquement dans cette position, sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'utiliser la clé. Par contre le déverrouillage ne peut pas se faire sans la clé.Indeed, after unlocking using the key 10, a push causes the barrier to lower. This is maintained at a predetermined distance from the ground, depending on the dimensioning of the return means. This distance could be 10 cm. We avoid as well as the barrier hits a foot which could be below. A pressure of the foot on the barrier the plate at ground level. To then raise the barrier, a push, for example from the tip of the foot upwards, is sufficient to overcome the force which blocks it on the ground. Then the barrier is raised to a sufficient height to be able to grasp it by hand without having to bend down. Then the barrier is returned manually to its raised position. If necessary, it could automatically lock in this position, without the need to use the key. However, unlocking cannot be done without the key.

Bien entendu de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées à la présente invention sans sortir du cadre de celle-ci. Par exemple on pourrait utiliser à la place des ressorts hélicoïdaux 12 des ressorts de flexion en forme de lames. La force des ressorts pourrait être choisie de façon à assurer un effet plus ou moins important. Le blocage de l'arceau au sol pourrait être effectué à l'aide d'un dispositif actionnable à l'aide d'un levier ou d'une pédale, connu en soi. En outre, le ressort de traction pourrait être remplacé par un vérin à gaz susceptible d'agir avec lenteur.Of course many modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from the scope thereof. For example, one could use instead of coil springs 12 of leaf-shaped bending springs. The force of the springs could be chosen so as to ensure a more or less significant effect. The blocking of the hoop on the ground could be carried out using a device actuable using a lever or a pedal, known per se. In addition, the tension spring could be replaced by a gas spring capable of acting slowly.
