Description

La présente invention concerne un panneau de signalisation de simple police ou de signalisation directionnelle du type caisson comprenant une façade avant et une façade arrière.The present invention relates to a simple police signage or directional signage of the box type comprising a front face and a rear face.

Les panneaux de type caisson comportant à la fois une façade avant et une façade arrière sont connus. L'assemblage de ces panneaux sur le profil d'assemblage ou de ceinture est généralement réalisé par emboutissage et éventuellement pliage (FR-A-2 580 537) ou par repoussage sur tour hydraulique. Ces techniques engendrent la plupart du temps une rétreinte et/ou une déformation de la matière qui limitent l'utilisation d'un produit anodisé ou décoré.Box type panels comprising both a front facade and a rear facade are known. The assembly of these panels on the assembly or belt profile is generally carried out by stamping and possibly folding (FR-A-2 580 537) or by pushing back on a hydraulic lathe. These techniques generate most of the time a shrinkage and / or a deformation of the material which limit the use of an anodized or decorated product.

Le but de la présente invention est donc de proposer un panneau de type caisson dont les façades avant et arrière sont réunies au moyen d'un profil définissant la forme du panneau, l'assemblage étant réalisé sans qu'il soit nécessaire de déformer le profil.The object of the present invention is therefore to propose a box type panel whose front and rear facades are joined by means of a profile defining the shape of the panel, the assembly being carried out without it being necessary to deform the profile. .

Un autre but de l'invention est de proposer des moyens de fixation du panneau sur son support qui sont externes au panneau, évitant ainsi toute modification de ce dernier, et qui permettent un ajustage et une orientation aisés de la position du panneau par rapport à son support.Another object of the invention is to propose means for fixing the panel to its support which are external to the panel, thus avoiding any modification of the latter, and which allow easy adjustment and orientation of the position of the panel relative to its support.

L'invention concerne à cet effet un panneau de signalisation de type caisson comprenant une façade arrière et une façade avant, panneau qui comporte un profil de ceinture du caisson muni de deux ailes prolongées chacune par une lèvre périphérique externe délimitant avec l'aile respective une collerette latérale destinée à recevoir la périphérie de la façade du panneau respectif, lesdites façades étant fixées par collage sur l'une des faces de chaque collerette latérale respective.To this end, the invention relates to a box-type traffic sign comprising a rear facade and a front facade, a panel which comprises a profile of the box belt provided with two wings each extended by an external peripheral lip delimiting with the respective wing a lateral flange intended to receive the periphery of the facade of the respective panel, said facades being fixed by gluing on one of the faces of each respective lateral flange.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les lèvres périphériques du profil sont prolongées de manière à délimiter également une cavité à section sensiblement trapézoïdale ou rectangulaire qui constitue une rainure de montage pour des moyens de fixation du panneau sur un support. Cette forme de réalisation particulière de l'invention permet un démontage et un montage rapides du panneau sur son support tout en simplifiant son ajustage et son orientation. De plus, elle facilite le nettoyage de la face arrière du panneau qui est généralement extrêmement sollicitée au niveau des dégradations.According to another characteristic of the invention, the peripheral lips of the profile are extended so as to also delimit a cavity with a substantially trapezoidal or rectangular section which constitutes a mounting groove for means for fixing the panel to a support. This particular embodiment of the invention allows rapid disassembly and assembly of the panel on its support while simplifying its adjustment and its orientation. In addition, it facilitates cleaning of the rear face of the panel which is generally extremely stressed in terms of deterioration.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront encore à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit et des dessins joints, lesquels description et dessins étant donnés surtout à titre d'exemple. Dans ces dessins :
   La figure 1 représente une vue en coupe simplifiée du profil équipé d'une façade avant et arrière ; la figure 2 représente une vue en coupe simplifiée des moyens de fixation du panneau sur un support ; la figure 3 représente une vue éclatée en perspective du panneau prêt à être fixé sur son support.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the detailed description which follows and the accompanying drawings, which description and drawings being given mainly by way of example. In these drawings:
Figure 1 shows a simplified sectional view of the profile equipped with a front and rear facade; FIG. 2 represents a simplified sectional view of the means for fixing the panel to a support; Figure 3 shows an exploded perspective view of the panel ready to be fixed on its support.

Conformément aux figures 1 et 2, le panneau de signalisation comprend une façade avant 5a et une façade arrière 5b destinées à être assemblées ensemble au moyen du profil de ceinture 1. Ce profil est muni de deux ailes 2 prolongées chacune par une lèvre périphérique externe 3 délimitant avec les ailes 2 deux collerettes latérales 4. Ces deux collerettes latérales 4 ont pour fonction de recevoir les façades avant et arrière du panneau qui sont fixées sur le profil de ceinture par collage au moyen par exemple d'un ruban adhésif 11 double face ou par opposition d'un filet de colle. La mise en oeuvre de ce moyen particulier d'assemblage des façades du panneau permet d'éviter toute dégradation du décor porté par au moins une de ces façades du panneau.In accordance with FIGS. 1 and 2, the sign comprises a front facade 5a and a rear facade 5b intended to be assembled together by means of the belt profile 1. This profile is provided with two wings 2 each extended by an external peripheral lip 3 delimiting with the wings 2 two side flanges 4. These two side flanges 4 have the function of receiving the front and rear facades of the panel which are fixed to the belt profile by bonding by means for example of a double-sided adhesive tape 11 or by opposition of a thread of glue. The implementation of this particular means of assembling the facades of the panel makes it possible to avoid any degradation of the decoration carried by at least one of these facades of the panel.

Pour permettre la fixation du panneau sur son support, les lèvres périphériques 3 du profil sont prolongées de manière à délimiter une cavité 6 à section sensiblement trapézoïdale ou rectangulaire qui constitue une rainure de montage. Cette rainure de montage permet l'emprisonnement des moyens de fixation 7 du panneau sur son support. Ces moyens de fixation peuvent affecter une forme quelconque. Un exemple de réalisation est fourni dans les figures 2 et 3. Dans cet exemple particulier, les moyens de fixation 7 sont constitués par des griffes qui présentent un taraudage borgne 13 à l'intérieur duquel pénètre une pièce filetée ou vis 14 qui traverse également les lèvres périphériques d'une bride 15, ladite bride enchassant le support 8 de panneau. Le support de panneau affecte généralement, dans ce cas, la forme d'un profilé rectangulaire. Les griffes sont, conformément à la figure 2, encliquetées entre une des ailes 2 du profilé et sa lèvre périphérique interne, à l'intérieur de la rainure de montage 6, au moyen d'une portion en saillie en forme de nez. Il est à noter que cette rainure de montage 6, outre ses caractéristiques techniques, peut présenter un aspect esthétique intéressant par insertion d'un élément de décoration tel qu'une bande couleur à l'intérieur de ladite rainure.To allow the panel to be fixed on its support, the peripheral lips 3 of the profile are extended so as to delimit a cavity 6 of substantially trapezoidal or rectangular section which constitutes a mounting groove. This mounting groove allows the fixing means 7 of the panel to be trapped on its support. These fixing means can affect any shape. An exemplary embodiment is provided in FIGS. 2 and 3. In this particular example, the fastening means 7 consist of claws which have a blind thread 13 inside which penetrates a threaded part or screw 14 which also passes through the peripheral lips of a flange 15, said flange encasing the panel support 8. The panel support generally assumes, in this case, the shape of a rectangular profile. The claws are, according to Figure 2, snapped between one of the wings 2 of the profile and its internal peripheral lip, inside the mounting groove 6, by means of a projecting portion in the shape of a nose. It should be noted that this mounting groove 6, in addition to its technical characteristics, can have an attractive aesthetic appearance by inserting a decorative element such as a color strip inside said groove.

Quand au profil lui-même, de préférence en alliage léger anidosé, il est formé à la géométrie du panneau par cintrage sur machines automatiques. Il est formé avec lui-même au moyen d'une éclisse (non représentée) qui coopère avec les ailes 2 et, éventuellement, les ailes périphériques internes 10 du profil 1. Ces ailes internes 10 du profil sont obtenues par le prolongement des ailes 2 du profil de ceinture au-delà de l'âme 9 du profil 1. L'adaptation de l'éclisse se fait par exemple par matage ou collage à l'intérieur du profil 1.When the profile itself, preferably made of anidose light alloy, it is formed to the geometry of the panel by bending on automatic machines. It is formed with itself by means of a splint (not shown) which cooperates with the wings 2 and, optionally, the internal peripheral wings 10 of the profile 1. These wings internal 10 of the profile are obtained by the extension of the wings 2 of the belt profile beyond the core 9 of the profile 1. The adaptation of the splint is done for example by matting or gluing inside the profile 1 .

L'invention ne se limite pas aux formes de réalisation citées ci-dessus mais englobe au contraire un certain nombre de variantes qui demeurent dans le cadre de l'invention.The invention is not limited to the embodiments mentioned above but on the contrary encompasses a certain number of variants which remain within the scope of the invention.
