En référence à la figure 1, un dispositif selon l'invention comporte un corps 1 de forme allongée conformé en patin de glissement selon le sens longitudinal.Referring to Figure 1, a device according to the invention comprises a
Le corps 1 comporte à sa partie avant (en référence au sens d'utilisation) un logement 2 formant cuvette d'orientation pour une roulette orientable 3. Le corps 1 comporte à sa partie arrière un logement 4 propre à recevoir une roulette 5 d'orientation fixe, et orientée de manière à ce que le roulement s'effectue selon le sens longitudinal du corps 1.The
La roulette 3 orientable est montée sur le corps 1 à l'aide d'une plaque de base 3a par exemple de forme rectangulaire, sur laquelle est monté à pivotement un ensemble porte-axe 3b. Dans cet exemple, l'ensemble porte-axe 3b comporte une plaque circulaire et deux bras latéraux solidaires et sensiblement perpendiculaires à cette plaque de base : les deux bras latéraux supportent la roue 3c.The orientable caster 3 is mounted on the
La roulette 5 d'orientation longitudinale par rapport au corps 1 est montée à rotation directement sur le corps 1 au moyen de son axe 5a.The
Selon l'invention, le corps 1 est conformé en patin de glissement et présente une partie frontale 6 inclinée par rapport au plan de roulement.According to the invention, the
La partie frontale 6 présente une première surface 6a sensiblement plane et inclinée, par exemple d'un angle compris entre 30° et 60° par rapport au plan de roulement.The
La surface 6a se raccorde tangentiellement à une surface 6b de forme généralement convexe. Le plan tangent 6c à l'extrémité de la surface 6b (symbolisé en traits pointillés sur les figures 1 et 3) rencontre la roue 3c sensiblement en dessous du tiers inférieur de la roue 3, lorsque celle-ci est orientée dans le sens d'utilisation normal, c'est-à-dire que la surface d'intersection du plan 6c avec la roue 3c est vue depuis l'axe de rotation sous un angle de l'ordre de ou sensiblement inférieur à 120°.The
La partie centrale 7 du corps 1 présente une forme générale en V et sans angles vifs susceptibles d'accrocher un rebord ou un obstacle quelconque.The
La partie arrière 8 du corps 1 présente une surface sensiblement plane inclinée par rapport au plan de roulement d'un angle compris, par exemple entre 30° et 60° ; le prolongement de cette surface (en traits pointillés) vient rencontrer la roulette d'orientation fixe 5.The
On obtient ainsi un encastrement d'une part de la roulette orientable 3 dans un logement 2 de façon à être protégée contre les chocs par les surfaces 6a, 6b et 11a et d'autre part de la roulette fixe 5 dans un logement 4 de façon à être protégée par les surfaces 11b et 8. Cet encastrement permet un franchissement aisé des obstacles tels que des marches par exemple.One thus obtains an embedding on the one hand of the orientable caster 3 in a
En référence à la figure 2, sur laquelle les chiffres de référence identiques désignent des éléments identiques à ceux de la figure 1, le dispositif selon l'invention s'inscrit dans un contour de forme générale en U, dont les côtés 9, 10 présentent un évasement opposé au plan de roulement.With reference to FIG. 2, in which the identical reference numerals designate elements identical to those of FIG. 1, the device according to the invention is part of a generally U-shaped outline, the
En référence à la figure 3, le logement avant 2 présente un renfoncement 2a ou une forme coopérante analogue pour fixer la plaque de base 3a de la roulette avant 3.With reference to FIG. 3, the
Le logement arrière 4 présente au moins un orifice ou analogue 4a pour le logement d'un axe de rotation 5a d'une roulette 5. De préférence, l'axe 5a est traversant et passe par deux orifices 4a disposés de part et d'autre du logement 4.The
La partie centrale 7 présente un bord inférieur 11 incliné vers le bas d'avant en arrière, de manière à ce que l'avant 11a du bord inférieur 11 se situe sensiblement en dessous du niveau de l'axe de la roue 3c et que l'arrière 11b du bord inférieur 11 se situe légèrement au-dessus du plan de roulement de la roulette 5.The
En référence aux figures 4 et 5, la partie centrale 7 s'inscrit dans le contour général représenté en traits pointillés en forme de U du dispositif.Referring to Figures 4 and 5, the
La partie centrale 7 présente une section s'élargissant d'avant en arrière et qui présente une section en forme de V dont la pointe est constituée par le bord inférieur 11.The
Selon l'invention, le dispositif de support à roulettes présente une forme toujours en contact avec le sol et apte à permettre l'avancement par combinaison de glissement et/ou de roulement en dépit des obstacles de forme diverse rencontrés.According to the invention, the support device on casters has a shape always in contact with the ground and able to allow advancement by combination of sliding and / or rolling despite obstacles of various shape encountered.
La forme générale en U évasé évite l'encastrement dans un rétrécissement ; l'élargissement de la section en forme de V assure la stabilité de la charge supportée ; le pivotement de la roulette avant permet le changement de direction sans effort.The general flared U shape avoids embedding in a narrowing; the widening of the V-shaped section ensures the stability of the supported load; the pivoting of the front caster allows effortless change of direction.
En référence à la figure 6, une valise selon l'invention est munie de deux dispositifs selon l'invention sensiblement parallèles entre eux et aux faces latérales de la valise.Referring to Figure 6, a suitcase according to the invention is provided with two devices according to the invention substantially parallel to each other and to the side faces of the suitcase.
Les roulettes avant 3 des dispositifs selon l'invention sont situées du même côté dans le sens de roulement normal.The front rollers 3 of the devices according to the invention are located on the same side in the normal rolling direction.
Bien entendu, l'invention s'applique également à toute forme de conteneur : malle, caisse, etc... muni d'un nombre quelconque de dispositifs selon l'invention, fixés de façon permanente (par thermosoudage, collage, rivetage ou un procédé analogue) ou amovible (vissage , encliquetage ou un procédé analogue).Of course, the invention also applies to any form of container: trunk, box, etc. provided with any number of devices according to the invention, permanently fixed (by heat sealing, gluing, riveting or a similar process) or removable (screwing, snap-fastening or a similar process).
L'invention s'applique à tous types de bagages que ceux-ci soient rigides ou non.The invention applies to all types of luggage, whether these are rigid or not.
En particulier, dans le cas d'un bagage entièrement souple (en cuir, toile ou analogue), il suffit de raidir le fond du bagage par une plaque en tout matériau rigide approprié sur laquelle seront fixés le ou les patins.In particular, in the case of fully flexible luggage (leather, canvas or the like), it suffices to stiffen the bottom of the luggage by a plate made of any suitable rigid material on which the pad (s) will be fixed.
Selon l'invention, on peut fabriquer le dispositif comme cela est représenté à la figure 7, c'est-à-dire qu'il est constitué de deux patins solidaires d'une plaque rigide de façon à constituer une sorte de planche à roulettes qui peut être fixée au fond de tout bagage souple de façon d'une part, à en rigidifier le fond, et d'autre part, à le doter de roues.According to the invention, the device can be manufactured as shown in Figure 7, that is to say that it consists of two pads integral with a rigid plate so as to constitute a kind of skateboard which can be fixed to the bottom of any flexible luggage so as to, on the one hand, to stiffen the bottom, and on the other hand, to provide it with wheels.
Avantageusement, selon l'invention, le dispositif pourra être monté automatiquement directement en bout de la chaîne de fabrication des valises : il sera alors constitué au moins du côté destiné à être assemblé aux valises avec le même matériau ou un matériau compatible avec celui des valises (notamment une matière thermoplastique telle que du polypropylène).Advantageously, according to the invention, the device can be mounted automatically directly at the end of the chain for manufacturing suitcases: it will then consist at least of the side intended to be assembled to suitcases with the same material or a material compatible with that of the suitcases (in particular a thermoplastic material such as polypropylene).
Avantageusement, le dispositif peut également venir de matière d'une seule pièce (par moulage, thermoformage ou un procédé analogue) avec le bagage, ou avec la plaque rigide dans le cas d'un bagage souple.Advantageously, the device can also come in one piece material (by molding, thermoforming or a similar process) with the luggage, or with the rigid plate in the case of a flexible luggage.
