Description

La présente invention concerne une batterie de boîtes aux lettres à ouverture totale, du type comportant un caisson qui comprend plusieurs cases individuelles juxtaposées et/ou superposées pour courrier et qui présente sur sa face d'accès au moins un cadre dormant comportant deux traverses et deux montants et sur lequel est articulée, en pivotement autour d'un axe latéral et vertical, une porte collective de distribution occupant toute l'ouverture du cadre et constituant elle-même un châssis sur lequel sont articulés en pivotement des portillons individuels de retrait de courrier, en regard des différentes cases, ladite porte collective étant susceptible d'être fermée et verrouillée par des moyens de verrouillage et d'être ouverte pour donner accès aux cases débouchant dans ledit cadre, lesdits moyens de verrouillage étant actionnés par une serrure montée sur le montant dudit cadre éloigné de l'axe de pivotement de ladite porte, ladite serrure étant fixée sur la paroi avant dudit montant par des moyens de fixation accessibles par la face arrière dudit montant.The present invention relates to a battery of mailboxes with full opening, of the type comprising a box which comprises several individual boxes juxtaposed and / or superimposed for mail and which has on its access face at least one sleeping frame comprising two crosspieces and two uprights and on which is pivotally pivoted about a lateral and vertical axis, a collective distribution door occupying the entire opening of the frame and itself constituting a frame on which are pivotally pivoted individual gates for removing mail , facing the different boxes, said collective door being capable of being closed and locked by locking means and of being open to give access to the boxes opening into said frame, said locking means being actuated by a lock mounted on the amount of said frame remote from the pivot axis of said door, said lock being fixed on the front wall of said upright by fixing means accessible from the rear face of said upright.

Une telle boîte aux lettres à ouverture totale est déjà connue, notamment par la demande de brevet français n° 2 643 886. Dans ce type de construction, le montant est réalisé dans un profilé rigide et présente sur sa face arrière une fente donnant accès aux moyens de fixation de la serrure. L'avantage de cette construction réside dans le fait que les pièces mobiles des moyens de verrouillage sont disposées à l'intérieur du montant et ne sont pas soumises à la déformation du fait de la rigidité et de l'immobilité du montant. Ce dernier présente sur sa paroi avant une ouverture oblongue par laquelle on introduit la serrure à barillet lors de son montage. La serrure est immobilisée sur la paroi avant du montant par un écrou disposé à l'intérieur du montant.Such a letterbox with full opening is already known, in particular from French patent application No. 2,643,886. In this type of construction, the upright is produced in a rigid profile and has on its rear face a slot giving access to the means for fixing the lock. The advantage of this construction lies in the fact that the moving parts of the locking means are arranged inside the upright and are not subjected to deformation due to the rigidity and the immobility of the upright. The latter has on its front wall an oblong opening through which the cylinder lock is introduced during its assembly. The lock is immobilized on the front wall of the upright by a nut placed inside the upright.

Le montage ou le démontage éventuel de la serrure est effectué par le personnel de l'administration chargée de la distribution du courrier. Ce personnel rencontre des difficultés pour faire ce montage du fait de l'accessibilité limitée de la cavité interne du montant, Le personnel doit travailler à tâtons, et il rencontre des difficultés pour utiliser des outils traditionnels, du genre pince multiprise ou clé à molettes.Any assembly or disassembly of the lock is carried out by the personnel of the administration responsible for mail delivery. This staff encounters difficulties in making this assembly due to the limited accessibility of the Internal cavity of the upright, The staff must work groped, and they encounter difficulties in using traditional tools, such as pliers or adjustable wrenches.

Le but de la présente invention est de pallier cet inconvénient.The object of the present invention is to overcome this drawback.

Le but est atteint selon l'invention par le fait que la serrure est montée sur une pièce rapportée démontable logeant dans une cavité ouverte sur la face avant dudit montant, ladite pièce étant fixée sur ledit caisson par des moyens de fixation disposés à l'extérieur dudit montant au voisinage de sa face arrière.The object is achieved according to the invention by the fact that the lock is mounted on a removable insert accommodating in an open cavity on the front face of said upright, said part being fixed on said box by fixing means arranged outside. of said upright in the vicinity of its rear face.

Grâce à cette disposition, il suffit de défaire les moyens de fixation de la pièce rapportée, équipée d'une serrure provisoire, de sortir la pièce rapportée de son logement en la poussant vers l'avant du caisson, de changer la serrure, puis de remettre la pièce rapportée en place. On comprend aisément que lorsque la pièce rapportée est désolidarisée du caisson, les moyens de fixation de la serrure définitive sont directement accessibles.Thanks to this arrangement, it suffices to undo the attachment means of the insert, equipped with a temporary lock, to remove the insert from its housing by pushing it towards the front of the box, to change the lock, then to replace the insert. It is easily understood that when the insert is detached from the box, the means for fixing the final lock are directly accessible.

De préférence ladite pièce rapportée comporte une plaque logeant dans la cavité de la paroi avant du montant et deux tiges filetées perpendiculaires à ladite plaque et s'étendant sur sa face arrière. Les moyens de fixation sont constitués d'écrous à oreilles coopérant avec' lesdites tiges et d'une contreplaque servant d'appui auxdits écrous, ladite contreplaque étant disposée à l'arrière dudit montant et étant munie d'ouvertures pour le passage desdites tiges.Preferably said insert comprises a plate accommodating in the cavity of the front wall of the upright and two threaded rods perpendicular to said plate and extending on its rear face. The fixing means consist of wing nuts cooperating with said rods and a counterplate serving as support for said nuts, said counterplate being arranged at the rear of said upright and being provided with openings for the passage of said rods.

Afin d'empêcher l'accessibilité des moyens de fixation de la pièce rapportée à partir de la case voisine de la serrure, il est avantageusement prévu un cache démontable fixé audit montant par des moyens de fixation accessibles uniquement lorsque ladite porte est ouverte.In order to prevent the accessibility of the means of fixing the insert from the box next to the lock, there is advantageously provided a removable cover fixed to said upright by fixing means accessible only when said door is open.

Avantageusement ledit cache présente une première plaque parallèle à la face arrière dudit montant et s'étendant sur toute la hauteur de la case adjacente à ladite serrure.Advantageously, said cover has a first plate parallel to the rear face of said upright and extending over the entire height of the box adjacent to said lock.

Avantageusement ledit cache comporte une deuxième plaque perpendiculaire à ladite première plaque disposée contre la paroi intérieure du montant constituant la feuillure.Advantageously, said cover comprises a second plate perpendicular to said first plate disposed against the inner wall of the upright constituting the rebate.

Avantageusement les moyens de fixation dudit cache comportent des vis dont les têtes sont disposées dans la feuillure dudit montant.Advantageously, the means for fixing said cover comprise screws, the heads of which are arranged in the rebate of said upright.

La batterie de boîtes aux lettres 1 représentée sur le dessin comporte un caisson 2 de forme parallélépipédique. Le caisson 2 comprend plusieurs cases individuelles juxtaposées, superposées et accessibles par la face avant 4 du caisson 2. Sur sa face avant 4, le caisson présente un cadre dormant 5 délimité par une traverse supérieure 6a, une traverse inférieure 6b et deux montants 7a et 7b verticaux reliant les extrémités des traverses 6a et 6b. Les cases individuelles débouchent dans l'ouverture du cadre 5.The battery of letter boxes 1 shown in the drawing comprises a box 2 of parallelepiped shape. The box 2 comprises several juxtaposed individual boxes, superimposed and accessible by the front face 4 of the box 2. On its front face 4, the box has a sleeping frame 5 delimited by an upper cross 6a, a lower cross 6b and two uprights 7a and 7b vertical connecting the ends of the crosspieces 6a and 6b. The individual boxes open into the opening of frame 5.

L'ouverture du cadre 5 peut être obturée par une porte collective 9 qui est montée pivotante autour d'un axe vertical 10 disposé près du montant 7b.The opening of the frame 5 can be closed by a collective door 9 which is pivotally mounted around a vertical axis 10 disposed near the upright 7b.

La porte collective 9 peut être ouverte afin de permettre l'accès à l'ensemble des cases, et elle peut être fermée et verrouillée par des moyens de verrouillage prévus au voisinage du montant 7a éloigné de l'axe de pivotement 10.Collective door 9 can be opened to allow access to all of the boxes, and it can be closed and locked by locking means provided in the vicinity of the upright 7a distant from the pivot axis 10.

Sur la porte collective 9 sont articulés en pivotement des portillons individuels 13 susceptibles de s'ouvrir sur l'avant de la porte collective 9. Les portillons individuels 13 sont disposés en rangs et en colonnes, chaque portillon 13 se trouvant en regard d'une case individuelle 3. Chaque portillon individuel 13 comporte une serrure permettant de l'ouvrir et le fermer.On the collective door 9 are pivotally hinged individual doors 13 capable of opening on the front of the collective door 9. The individual doors 13 are arranged in rows and columns, each door 13 being located opposite a individual box 3. Each individual door 13 has a lock allowing it to be opened and closed.

Les moyens de verrouillage de la porte collective 9 comportent essentiellement une serrure à barillet 14 montée sur la paroi avant 15 du montant 7a et actionnant des pièces mobiles verticalement disposées à l'intérieur du montant 7a à l'aide d'une clé 14a. Ces pièces mobiles comportent principalement une crémone 16 munie de tétons 17 s'étendant vers l'axe de pivotement 10, les tétons 17 coopérant avec des échancrures prévues sur une plaque verticale 18 solidaire de la porte collective 9.The locking means of the collective door 9 essentially comprise a cylinder lock 14 mounted on the front wall 15 of the upright 7a and actuating moving parts vertically disposed inside the upright 7a using a key 14a. These moving parts mainly comprise a cremone bolt 16 provided with pins 17 extending towards the pivot axis 10, the pins 17 cooperating with indentations provided on a vertical plate 18 secured to the collective door 9.

La paroi latérale 20 du montant 7a qui est voisine de la porte 9 est pliée pour présenter une feuillure 21, et une battée 22. La plaque 18 de la porte 9 est conformée de telle manière qu'elle puisse s'appliquer sur la battée 22 et cacher la feuillure 21.The side wall 20 of the upright 7a which is adjacent to the door 9 is folded to have a rebate 21, and a door 22. The plate 18 of the door 9 is shaped so that it can be applied to the door 22 and hide the rebate 21.

La serrure 14 est fixée sur la paroi avant 15 du montant 7a par un écrou 23 venant en appui sur la face arrière de cette paroi avant 15, avec interposition d'une rondelle 24. Elle comporte à son extrémité éloignée de la paroi avant 15, une came 25 actionnant la crémone 16 par l'intermédiaire de taquets 25a, 25b. La face arrière du montant 7a présente une fente permettant d'accéder aux moyens de verrouillage.The lock 14 is fixed to the front wall 15 of the upright 7a by a nut 23 bearing on the rear face of this front wall 15, with the interposition of a washer 24. It has at its end remote from the front wall 15, a cam 25 actuating the cremone bolt 16 by means of catches 25a, 25b. The rear face of the upright 7a has a slot allowing access to the locking means.

La serrure 14 est montée sur une pièce rapportée démontable 26 qui loge dans une cavité prévue dans la paroi avant 15.The lock 14 is mounted on a removable insert 26 which lodges in a cavity provided in the front wall 15.

Cette pièce rapportée 26 comporte essentiellement une plaque rectangulaire 27 dont les bords viennent en appui sur des épaulements 28 prévus autour d'une ouverture ménagée dans la paroi avant 15.This insert 26 essentially comprises a rectangular plate 27, the edges of which bear on shoulders 28 provided around an opening made in the front wall 15.

Deux tiges filetées 29a et 29b sont soudées par l'une de leurs extrémités sur la face arrière de la plaque 27. Les tiges filetées 29a et 29b ont une longueur supérieure à l'épaisseur du montant 7a. Une contreplaque 30 est fixée au caisson 2. Cette contreplaque comporte des ouvertures pour le passage des extrémités libres des tiges filetées 29a et 29b. Des écrous papillon 32a et 32b coopèrent avec les tiges filetées 29a et 29b et la contreplaque 30 pour fixer la pièce rapportée 26.Two threaded rods 29a and 29b are welded by one of their ends on the rear face of the plate 27. The threaded rods 29a and 29b have a length greater than the thickness of the upright 7a. A counterplate 30 is fixed to the casing 2. This counterplate has openings for the passage of the free ends of the threaded rods 29a and 29b. Butterfly nuts 32a and 32b cooperate with the threaded rods 29a and 29b and the plywood 30 to fix the insert 26.

Les écrous papillon 32a et 32b sont facilement accessibles et permettent une pose ou une dépose de la pièce rapportée 26 équipée de la serrure 14.The wing nuts 32a and 32b are easily accessible and allow the fitting or removal of the insert 26 fitted with the lock 14.

Pour empêcher l'accés aux écrous papillon 32a et 32b, ou au moins des moyens de fixation de la serrure 14, par le portillon 13 de la case voisine de la serrure 14, il est prévu en outre un cache démontable 33 fixé au montant 7a par des moyens de fixation accessibles uniquement lorsque la porte collective est ouverte.To prevent access to the wing nuts 32a and 32b, or at least the means for fixing the lock 14, by the door 13 of the box next to the lock 14, there is also provided a removable cover 33 fixed to the upright 7a by fixing means accessible only when the collective door is open.

Le cache démontable 33 comporte une première plaque 34 disposée parallèlement à la face arrière du montant 7a et s'étendant sur toute la hauteur de la case adjacente à la serrure 14, et comporte de plus une deuxième plaque 35 perpendiculaire à la première plaque 34 et disposée contre la paroi intérieure de la feuillure 21.The removable cover 33 comprises a first plate 34 disposed parallel to the rear face of the upright 7a and extending over the entire height of the box adjacent to the lock 14, and further comprises a second plate 35 perpendicular to the first plate 34 and disposed against the inner wall of the rebate 21.
