Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical sector of household articles, more particularly household cleaning.
  • a shovel essentially comprises a part which acts as a receptacle for receiving sweepings, dust and the like.
  • This receptacle part is equipped with a grip handle.
  • the invention relates to shovels of the type of those which are equipped with a handle of sufficient length while being arranged vertically to avoid bending down. It is understood that the length and the position of the handle significantly increase the size of the shovel which poses significant problems for its transport and storage.
  • the object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks in a simple and effective manner.
  • the shovel is remarkable in that the handle is mounted relative to the receptacle part by being able to be retracted inside said part in combination with arrangements presented by said handle.
  • the problem posed is solved in that that the handle is mounted with angular orientation capacity relative to the receptacle part to be folded down at least in the direction of said part, while the arrangements of said handle are capable of making it telescopic to vary its length from a reduced length in the retracted position, up to a normal length in the vertical or substantially vertical position of use.
  • the handle telescopic is formed of several tubes sliding between them with respect to a first tube fitted in a connecting head articulated in a part of the receptacle.
  • each tube is obtained by elements added at the end of one of the ends of said tubes and able to cooperate by elasticity with complementary arrangements formed at the other end of the tubes.
  • the part of the receptacle receiving said sleeve is shaped to act as a yoke.
  • Another problem which the invention proposes to solve is to maintain the handle in a vertical or folded position.
  • the head of the handle and the part of the receptacle receiving said head freely, in combination, have complementary indexing means.
  • the handle is indexed in the vertical position of use by engagement of the head between two vertical walls of the part after sliding down a pivot axis of said handle in slots formed vertically. in the walls of the grip part.
  • One of the characteristics of the invention resides in the fact that the shovel handle must be able to be retracted in the non-use position inside the receptacle part in order to significantly reduce its size. Provision is also made to fold the handle outside the receptacle, very substantially in the same plane as that defined by said receptacle.
  • the shovel comprises a part forming a receptacle (1), arranged at one of its ends to receive a handle (2) with capacity for angular orientation relative to said receptacle (1) to be folded in the direction from the front collection end (1b) of the receptacle, either folded outside of said receptacle, or arranged vertically or substantially vertically with respect to this receptacle (1).
  • the handle (2) is mounted in an articulated manner in a part (1a) of the receptacle, determined to act as a yoke.
  • the handle (2) is constituted so that its length can vary between a reduced dimension in the retracted position so that its free end does not exceed the volume of the receptacle, and a normal dimension of use.
  • the part (1a) can have on its two spaced-apart walls two orifices (1c) in which are engaged, by elastic spacing of the walls, two pins (3a) formed diametrically opposite on a cylindrical head (3) forming the base of the handle.
  • the articulation produced is free, the vertical position of use is given by pressing the head (3) against a transverse wall (1d) of the gripping part (1a), while in the folded position, the handle rests on a raised bottom (1e) of said part (1a) or directly on the front end of the receptacle (1).
  • the angular orientation of the handle is obtained by a hinge system which comprises on each wall of the part (1a), a circular opening (1f) with along the vertical axis (x - x) and along an axis horizontal or close to the horizontal (y - y), indentations in a circular arc (1g) intended to receive two semi-circular bearings (3b) formed diametrically opposite on the cylindrical head ( 3), said ranges being extended by a retaining heel (3c) after elastic engagement in the openings (1f). It is understood that in this case, there is indexing of the handle in the positions of use and storage.
  • the angular orientation of the handle is produced by an articulation device with locking in the vertical position of use.
  • the walls of the part (1a) forming a yoke have vertical lights (1h) in which can slide an axis (4) integral with the head (3) and terminated at each end by buttons (5).
  • the handle In the vertical position of use, the handle is pushed down to be inserted between the transverse wall (1d) and the curved rear profile (1i) of said part (1a).
  • the handle is pushed down to be inserted between the transverse wall (1d) and the curved rear profile (1i) of said part (1a).
  • To fold the handle inside the receptacle it suffices to pull on the said handle (arrow F1) until the axis (4) is at the top of the lumen thus allowing the handle to pivot. It is the same when you want to fold the handle (2) outside the receptacle (line drawn in Figure 8).
  • the length variation of the handle is obtained by its telescopic structure with several tubes.
  • Figures 4, 5, 6, 14 and 15 show several non-limiting examples of embodiment of the handle.
  • FIG. 4 an embodiment is seen according to which a first tube (2a) with an upper flange (2a1) is fitted into the head (3).
  • a second tube (2b) is slidably engaged on the tube (2a) until it stops against the head (3), this tube has an upper flange (2b1) and a lower sliding surface (2b2).
  • This tube is slightly shorter than the first.
  • a third tube (2c) is slidably engaged around the second, this tube being of an intermediate length between the first and the third and it has a lower sliding surface (2c1).
  • a cap (6) is then secured to the third tube.
  • this third tube By pulling on this third tube, it is thus possible, by the play of the flanges and the sliding surfaces, to bring the handle to a normal length of use, of the order of approximately 70 cm, while in the folded position the handle has a length substantially equal to that of the receptacle.
  • the tubes have declining diameters from bottom to top and they slide one inside the other by bearing surfaces (2d) equipped with O-rings (7), with end stop against internal flanges (2e).
  • the tubes are also of declining diameters and their sliding is limited by wedging the ends formed with internal (2f) and external (2g) flares.
  • each insert (7) may have two opposite tongues (7a) (7b) with elastic deformation capacity and capable of being engaged in overflow of lights (L) formed at the end of the tube receiving said element (7) .
  • These tabs (7a) (7b) are intended to cooperate in other openings (E1), formed at the end of the tube mounted to slide freely relative to the tube receiving the element (7).
  • the latter can be carried out by means of elastic fingers (7c) cooperating in corresponding openings in the end of the tube receiving said element.
  • the articulated handle according for example to the embodiment of FIGS. 1, 2, 3, can be indexed in the two positions by clipping into the walls (1d) and (1e) of the receptacle which have a profile in section slightly larger than a semicircle.
  • the free end of the handle can be made in any way other than the cap (6) or have, in addition to the cap, a particular attachment or gripping arrangement.
  • the cap can form: a hook (6a) in the manner of a pen cap ( Figures 1, 2, 3), a buttonhole (6b) for attachment ( Figure 12), a ring (6c) suspension ( Figure 11), a tee (6d) for gripping ( Figure 13).
  • the bottom of the receptacle (1) can have a deeper zone (Z1) at the rear and separated from the front part (Z2) by a ramp (Z3) so that the scans can remain in the zone back.
  • serrations (1d) are provided to serve as a comb for cleaning the broom.
