Description

La présente invention concerne les armoires destinées à contenir des pots de peinture dont le couvercle est muni d'un agitateur.The present invention relates to cabinets intended to contain cans of paint, the lid of which is provided with an agitator.

Des armoires de ce type sont utilisées, en particulier dans l'industrie de la carrosserie automobile, pour permettre de disposer de peintures rendant possibles des mélanges correspondant à la couleur exacte d'une peinture à réaliser, par exemple, sur un véhicule réparé.Cabinets of this type are used, in particular in the automobile bodywork industry, to make it possible to have paints making possible mixtures corresponding to the exact color of a paint to be produced, for example, on a repaired vehicle.

Suivant l'importance de l'entreprise utilisant ces armoires, ou sa spécialité propre, les armoires pour pots mélangeurs, doivent être de capacités différentes.Depending on the size of the company using these cabinets, or its own specialty, the cabinets for mixing jars must be of different capacities.

L'invention concerne la réalisation desdites armoires et, plus particulièrement, une réalisation modulaire rendant possible une fabrication en grande série, pour la constitution d'armoires de capacités très différentes et adaptables au lieu d'utilisation.The invention relates to the production of said cabinets and, more particularly, a modular embodiment making possible mass production, for the construction of cabinets of very different capacities and adaptable to the place of use.

La technique antérieure a notamment fait connaître le document EP-A-0 127 589 qui décrit une armoire parallélépipédique prévue pour la mise en place par coulissement d'étagères placées côte à côte pour recevoir des pots de peinture, destinés à être agités.The prior art has in particular made known the document EP-A-0 127 589 which describes a parallelepiped cabinet intended for the positioning by sliding of shelves placed side by side to receive cans of paint, intended to be agitated.

De même, le dispositif selon le document EP-A-0 065 498 concerne un appareil destiné à entraîner l'agitateur d'un certain nombre de pots mélangeurs et, à cette fin, il décrit, de la même manière que le document ci-dessus, des palettes disposées sur des étagères à différents niveaux et destinées à être amené en prise avec la fourchette d'entraînement de l'agitateur d'un pot.Likewise, the device according to document EP-A-0 065 498 relates to an apparatus intended to drive the agitator of a number of mixing pots and, to this end, it describes, in the same way as the document above. above, pallets arranged on shelves at different levels and intended to be brought into engagement with the drive fork of the agitator of a pot.

Ainsi, conformément à l'invention, l'armoire modulaire pour agitateur de peintures et produits analogues est caractérisé par au moins deux modules disposés de manière contiguë les uns aux autres et comportant chacun un socle ou caisson sur lequel sont montées des cellules modulaires analogues et superposées comprenant chacune deux panneaux verticaux reliés par un plateau supérieur contenant un mécanisme d'entraînement d'éléments d'accouplement et par un couvercle formant le fond d'une cellule supérieure, lesdits éléments d'accouplement étant complémentaires à des éléments d'accouplement que comportent des agitateurs de pots placés dans les cellules, seule l'une des cellules étant munie d'un moto-réducteur, ce moto-réducteur étant relié simultanément à des transmetteurs de mouvement verticaux et à des transmetteurs de mouvement horizontaux assurant la liaison entre le moto-réducteur et les éléments d'accouplement des cellules des modules.Thus, in accordance with the invention, the modular cabinet for agitator of paints and similar products is characterized by at least two modules arranged contiguously to each other and each comprising a base or box on which analog modular cells are mounted and superimposed each comprising two vertical panels connected by an upper plate containing a mechanism for driving coupling elements and by a cover forming the bottom of an upper cell, said coupling elements being complementary to coupling elements that include pot agitators placed in the cells, only one of the cells being provided with a geared motor, this geared motor being simultaneously connected to vertical motion transmitters and horizontal motion transmitters ensuring the connection between the gear motor and the module cell coupling elements.

Diverses autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit et des revendications secondaires annexées.Various other characteristics of the invention will moreover emerge from the detailed description which follows and from the appended secondary claims.

Des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention sont représentées, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, aux dessins annexés.Embodiments of the object of the invention are shown, by way of nonlimiting examples, in the accompanying drawings.

La fig. 6 est une perspective éclatée d'un dispositif d'arbre formant transmetteur vertical pour l'entraînement des mécanismes contenus dans les plateaux des cellules.Fig. 6 is an exploded perspective view of a shaft device forming a vertical transmitter for driving the mechanisms contained in the plates of the cells.

La fig. 7 est une perspective de modules agitateurs suivant une légère variante.Fig. 7 is a perspective of agitator modules according to a slight variant.

La fig. 1 montre à la partie gauche, en éclaté, un module 1 et, à la partie droite, un module 1a monté et destiné à être accolé au module 1, pour constituer une armoire à deux modules.Fig. 1 shows the left side, exploded view, a module 1 and in the right part, a module 1 is mounted and intended to be attached to the module 1, to form a cabinet with two modules.

Comme cela ressort de la présente description, une armoire peut être constituée par un nombre quelconque de modules.As is apparent from the present description, a cabinet can be constituted by any number of modules.

Chaque module comporte un socle 2 pour le support de cellules 3, 3a,...3n, réalisées de façon analogue, c'est-à-dire qu'elles comportent chacune deux panneaux verticaux 4, 5 reliés, à leur partie supérieure, par un plateau 6 destiné à supporter un mécanisme décrit dans ce qui suit et, qui est recouvert par un couvercle 7. Le couvercle 7 forme en même temps le fond d'une cellule supérieure, en l'occurrence le fond de la cellule 3a.Each module includes a base 2 for the support of cells 3, 3 a , ... 3 n , produced in a similar manner, that is to say that they each have two vertical panels 4, 5 connected in their part upper, by a plate 6 intended to support a mechanism described in the following and, which is covered by a cover 7. The cover 7 forms at the same time the bottom of an upper cell, in this case the bottom of the cell 3 a .

Ce qui suit montre qu'un module peut comporter un nombre quelconque de cellules, par exemple, cinq ou six.The following shows that a module can have any number of cells, for example, five or six.

Le mode d'assemblage des panneaux verticaux 4, 5 sur le socle 2, puis ensuite, du plateau 6 et du couvercle 7 formant le fond d'une cellule supérieure, n'est pas décrit en détail, car il peut être réalisé de différentes façons.The method of assembling the vertical panels 4, 5 on the base 2, then thereafter, of the plate 6 and of the cover 7 forming the bottom of an upper cell, is not described in detail, because it can be produced in different manners.

D'une manière générale, les panneaux verticaux sont réalisés en tôle pliée et l'assemblage réalisé au moyen de boulons, tels que ceux illustrés en 8 à titre d'exemple. Des boulons 8 analogues peuvent aussi être utilisés pour la fixation du plateau 6 et de son couvercle 7.In general, the vertical panels are made of folded sheet metal and the assembly carried out by means of bolts, such as those illustrated in 8 by way of example. Similar bolts 8 can also be used for fixing the plate 6 and its cover 7.

La partie de chaque couvercle 7 qui forme le fond d'une cellule est destinée à supporter des pots agitateurs 9, dont le couvercle 10 comporte un élément d'accouplement 11, destiné à être amené en prise avec un élément d'accouplement complémentaire 12, porté et entraîné par un arbre 13, faisant saillie du dessous de chaque plateau 6.The part of each cover 7 which forms the bottom of a cell is intended to support agitator pots 9, the cover 10 of which comprises a coupling element 11, intended to be brought into engagement with a complementary coupling element 12, carried and driven by a shaft 13, projecting from the underside of each plate 6.

Les éléments d'accouplement complémentaires 11 et 12 étant de réalisation bien connue dans la technique des agitateurs de pots de peinture ne sont pas décrits plus en détail dans ce qui suit.The complementary coupling elements 11 and 12 being of an embodiment well known in the art of paint can agitators are not described in more detail below.

Seul l'entraînement des arbres 13 est expliqué à titre d'exemple dans ce qui suit, en référence à la fig. 5.Only the drive of the shafts 13 is explained by way of example in the following, with reference to FIG. 5.

Dans la réalisation des fig. 1 à 4, l'un des socles 2 est muni d'un moto-réducteur électrique 14 (fig. 1) porté par une embase 15, pouvant être réglée en position par un mécanisme approprié, par exemple une vis 16 (fig. 3). Le moto-réducteur 14 est destiné à entraîner une courroie 17 ou analogue, passant sur une poulie à deux gorges 18 montées dans le socle 2, près d'un de ses côtés latéraux.In the realization of fig. 1 to 4, one of the bases 2 is provided with an electric geared motor 14 (fig. 1) carried by a base 15, which can be adjusted in position by a suitable mechanism, for example a screw 16 (fig. 3 ). The gear motor 14 is intended to drive a belt 17 or the like, passing over a pulley with two grooves 18 mounted in the base 2, near one of its lateral sides.

La poulie 18, qui est logée dans l'épaisseur du socle 2, est reliée à un élément d'accouplement vertical 19, par exemple du type à crabot du genre de celui illustré à la fig. 6 et, qui est destiné à l'entraînement d'un second élément d'accouplement 20 du même type éventuellement par l'intermédiaire d'une noix élastique.The pulley 18, which is housed in the thickness of the base 2, is connected to a vertical coupling element 19, for example of the dog clutch type of the kind illustrated in FIG. 6 and, which is intended for driving a second coupling element 20 of the same type possibly via an elastic nut.

Le socle 2 comporte intérieurement des traverses 22, 23 supportant entre elles des poulies 24 (fig. 3) dont la position est réglable par rapport à des fentes 25 pour permettre le réglage en tension d'une courroie crantée 26 ou analogue. La courroie crantée 26 est passée dans la seconde gorge de la poulie 18 du premier socle 2 et dans l'une des deux gorges d'une poulie 18a similaire et, montée de la même manière près d'une extrémité latérale d'un second socle 2, ladite poulie 18a comportant également un élément d'accouplement vertical 19a.The base 2 has internally cross members 22, 23 supporting between them pulleys 24 (fig. 3) whose position is adjustable relative to slots 25 to allow the tension adjustment of a toothed belt 26 or the like. The toothed belt 26 is passed in the second groove of the pulley 18 of the first base 2 and in one of the two grooves of a pulley 18 has similar and, mounted in the same way near a lateral end of a second base 2, said pulley 18 a also comprising a vertical coupling element 19 a .

Il ressort de ce qui précède que le mouvement du moto-réducteur 14 peut facilement être transmis d'un socle 2 à un autre par des courroies crantées 26 toutes semblables, dès lors que la longueur des socles est la même.It follows from the above that the movement of the gear motor 14 can easily be transmitted from one base 2 to another by toothed belts 26 all similar, as long as the length of the bases is the same.

Lorsque deux socles 2, 2a doivent être disposés à angle droit, on intercale entre eux, comme l'illustre la fig. 4, un renvoi d'angle 27 qui est constitué par un boîtier 28, dans lequel sont montées des poulies 29, 30 pour une courroie crantée 26a, destinée à relier, par exemple, la poulie à deux gorges 18a, à une autre poulie à deux gorges 18b disposée dans le socle 2a.When two bases 2, 2 a must be arranged at a right angle, one interposed between them, as illustrated in FIG. 4, a bevel gear 27 which is constituted by a housing 28, in which pulleys 29, 30 are mounted for a toothed belt 26 a , intended to connect, for example, the pulley with two grooves 18 a , to another pulley with two grooves 18 b placed in the base 2 a .

Le boîtier 28 est recouvert par un capot 31.The housing 28 is covered by a cover 31.

Pour permettre la disposition en ligne ou à angle droit ou suivant un autre angle des socles 2, 2a, le dessin montre qu'il est avantageux que leurs angles forment des biseaux 32.To allow the bases 2, 2 a to be arranged in line or at a right angle or at another angle, the drawing shows that it is advantageous for their angles to form bevels 32.

Pour assurer le passage des courroies 26, 26a, les extrémités des socles présentent des lumières 33 fermées, en ce qui concerne les socles terminaux, par une plaque 34 ou un boîtier 35.To ensure the passage of the belts 26, 26 a , the ends of the bases have openings 33 closed, as regards the end bases, by a plate 34 or a housing 35.

En effet, il est avantageux pour obtenir un rapport de réduction convenable, que la poulie à deux gorges 18 du premier socle, c'est-à-dire celui qui est muni du moteur 14, soit à deux étages et fasse légèrement saillie du socle 2, comme le montre la fig. 3, afin que l'élément d'accouplement 19 soit aligné avec le volume délimité intérieurement par le premier panneau vertical 3, dans lequel entre l'élément d'accouplement vertical 19.Indeed, it is advantageous to obtain a suitable reduction ratio, that the two-grooved pulley 18 of the first base, that is to say the one which is provided with the motor 14, is two-stage and protrudes slightly from the base 2, as shown in fig. 3, so that the coupling element 19 is aligned with the volume delimited internally by the first vertical panel 3, in which between the vertical coupling element 19.

La disposition ci-dessus fait que le second élément d'accouplement 20 (fig. 6) peut être mis en place sur la partie saillante de l'élément d'accouplement 19, ce second élément d'accouplement étant relié à un arbre 36 entraînant des éléments d'accouplement 20a et 19a. L'élément d'accouplement 19a est relié à une poulie 37 disposée dans le premier plateau 6 (fig. 5).The above arrangement means that the second coupling element 20 (fig. 6) can be placed on the projecting part of the coupling element 19, this second coupling element being connected to a shaft 36 driving coupling elements 20 a and 19 a . The coupling element 19 a is connected to a pulley 37 placed in the first plate 6 (fig. 5).

La poulie 37 entraîne une courroie 38 ou élément analogue, en prise avec des poulies 39 montées sur chacun des arbres 13 décrits précédemment et illustrés aux fig. 1 et 5.The pulley 37 drives a belt 38 or similar element, engaged with pulleys 39 mounted on each of the shafts 13 described above and illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 5.

On voit par ce qui précède que la poulie à deux gorges 18 de chaque socle 2, 2a permet, par l'intermédiaire d'éléments d'accouplement verticaux, par exemple du type à crabot et de tronçons d'arbre facilement montables, d'entraîner des ensembles de transmission constitués par une poulie motrice 37 et des poulies réceptrices 39, faisant partie d'un plateau 6 d'une cellule et que plusieurs cellules peuvent ainsi être superposées, au gré de l'utilisateur, toutes les cellules étant identiques entre elles.It can be seen from the above that the pulley with two grooves 18 of each base 2, 2 a allows, by means of vertical coupling elements, for example of the dog clutch type and of easily mountable shaft sections, d '' drive transmission assemblies consisting of a driving pulley 37 and receiving pulleys 39, forming part of a plate 6 of a cell and that several cells can thus be superimposed, at the option of the user, all cells being identical between them.

Dans la réalisation décrite, le moto-réducteur est disposé sur le socle 2, en arrière de la première cellule 3. Dans certains cas il peut être avantageux de réduire l'épaisseur des modules, ce que montre la fig. 7 selon laquelle le moto-réducteur 14 est disposé tout en haut du module. Les mécanismes décrits en référence aux fig. 3, 4 sont alors inclus dans un caisson réalisé de même manière que les socles 2, mais mis en place sur la dernière cellule 3n.In the embodiment described, the gear motor is arranged on the base 2, behind the first cell 3. In some cases it may be advantageous to reduce the thickness of the modules, as shown in FIG. 7 according to which the gear motor 14 is disposed at the very top of the module. The mechanisms described with reference to figs. 3, 4 are then included in a box made in the same way as the bases 2, but put in place on the last cell 3 n .

Bien que cela ne soit pas représenté, la transmission d'une cellule à une autre est réalisée de la même façon que décrit en référence aux fig. 1 à 6.Although not shown, the transmission from one cell to another is carried out in the same way as described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.

Outre ce qui précède, il est avantageux, comme l'illustrent en particulier les fig. 6 et 7, qu'un boîtier 40 soit mis en place en dessous de chaque plateau 6, pour isoler les éléments d'accouplement 12.In addition to the above, it is advantageous, as illustrated in particular in FIGS. 6 and 7, that a housing 40 is put in place below each plate 6, to isolate the coupling elements 12.

Chaque boîtier 40 comporte une ouverture 41 permettant l'introduction de l'élément d'accouplement 11 dont est muni le couvercle de chaque pot agitateur 9 dont le centrage est assuré par des doigts 42 (fig. 6) faisant saillie du couvercle 7 recouvrant les plateaux 6 et constituant le fond d'une cellule. On est assuré ainsi que des risques d'accidents dus à l'entraînement en rotation des éléments d'accouplement 12 sont éliminés, puisque ceux-ci ne sont pas accessibles, même lorsqu'une cellule n'est pas complètement remplie de pots agitateurs.Each housing 40 has an opening 41 allowing the introduction of the coupling element 11 which is fitted with the cover of each agitator pot 9, the centering of which is ensured by fingers 42 (fig. 6) projecting from the cover 7 covering the plates 6 and constituting the bottom of a cell. It is thus ensured that risks of accidents due to the rotational driving of the coupling elements 12 are eliminated, since these are not accessible, even when a cell is not completely filled with agitator pots.

L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation, représentés et décrits en détail, car diverses modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir de son cadre. En particulier, dans le cas d'armoires de grandes dimensions, il est possible de prévoir plusieurs modules comportant un moteur 14.The invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments, shown and described in detail, since various modifications can be made thereto without departing from its scope. In particular, in the case of large cabinets, it is possible to provide several modules comprising a motor 14.
