Description

La présente invention concerne une barrière pivotante, du même genre que celle décrite dans la demande de brevet européen N° 0 511 130, c'est-à-dire dont le bras est solidaire d'un fût comprenant une saillie interne, destiné à venir coiffer un pilier solidaire du sol, ce pilier comprenant une pluralité de chicanes qui forment un labyrinthe dans lequel la saillie peut être introduite lors de l'engagement du fût sur le pilier et duquel elle ne peut être dégagée au long de la course normale de pivotement du bras.The present invention relates to a pivoting barrier, of the same kind as that described in European patent application No. 0 511 130, that is to say the arm of which is integral with a barrel comprising an internal projection, intended to come cover a pillar integral with the ground, this pillar comprising a plurality of baffles which form a labyrinth into which the projection can be introduced during the engagement of the barrel on the pillar and from which it cannot be released during the normal pivoting stroke of the arm.

La barrière telle que décrite par ce document, si elle donne satisfaction en pratique, s'est avérée susceptible d'un certain nombre d'améliorations.The barrier as described by this document, if it gives satisfaction in practice, has proved capable of a certain number of improvements.

En effet, il peut survenir des situations d'urgence qui imposent de forcer la barrière, notamment lorsque celle-ci réserve l'accès de voies de sécurité. Un tel forçage conduit à vriller le pilier de la barrière décrite dans ce document, ce qui empêche tout fonctionnement ultérieur de celle-ci et, même, dans certains cas, toute possibilité de démontage.In fact, emergency situations can arise which force the barrier to be forced, in particular when the barrier reserves access to safety lanes. Such forcing leads to twisting the pillar of the barrier described in this document, which prevents any subsequent operation thereof and, even, in some cases, any possibility of dismantling.

Dans certains cas, toute possibilité de forçage doit être interdite, ce que ne permet pas cette barrière.In some cases, any possibility of forcing must be prohibited, which this barrier does not allow.

De plus, avec la barrière selon cette demande de brevet européen, il est nécessaire de disposer d'un espace libre relativement important autour du pilier pour permettre le débattement du bras lors de l'engagement de la saillie du fût dans le labyrinthe que constituent les chicanes du pilier. La présence d'un obstacle à ce débattement, tel qu'un mur, limite les possibilités d'emplacement de la barrière ou peut même, purement et simplement, empêcher sa mise en place.In addition, with the barrier according to this European patent application, it is necessary to have a relatively large free space around the pillar to allow the movement of the arm during the engagement of the projection of the barrel in the labyrinth that constitute the pillar baffles. The presence of an obstacle to this movement, such as a wall, limits the possibilities of location of the barrier or can even, purely and simply, prevent its installation.

En outre, l'adaptabilité de cette barrière aux différents types de clés de manoeuvre pouvant être souhaités par les différents utilisateurs pourrait être améliorée.In addition, the adaptability of this barrier to the different types of operating keys that may be desired by the different users could be improved.

La présente invention vise à remédier à l'ensemble de ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to remedy all of these drawbacks.

A cette fin, dans la barrière qu'elle concerne, qui est du type précité, le pilier comprend des moyens d'immobilisation uniquement axiale du fût et les moyens de liaison en rotation du fût et du pilier lorsque le bras est verrouillé comprennent un organe apte à supprimer cette liaison, notamment apte à casser, lorsque la barrière est forcée, avant qu'un dommage ne soit causé à la structure du pilier.To this end, in the barrier which it concerns, which is of the aforementioned type, the pillar comprises means for immobilizing the barrel only axially and the means for rotating the barrel and the pillar when the arm is locked comprise a member able to remove this connection, in particular able to break, when the barrier is forced, before damage is caused to the structure of the pillar.

Ainsi, le forçage de la barrière, quel que soit son sens, n'entraîne que la rupture dudit organe, qui peut être prévu de manière à être aisément remplaçable, sans causer de dommage à la structure du pilier.Thus, forcing the barrier, whatever its direction, only causes the rupture of said member, which can be provided so as to be easily replaceable, without causing damage to the structure of the pillar.

De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme de réalisation préférée de la barrière qu'elle concerne.

  • La figure 1 en est une vue en perspective éclatée ;
  • la figure 2 en est une vue à échelle agrandie, en coupe montée passant par l'axe de son pied ;
  • la figure 3 en est une vue en coupe perpendiculaire à l'axe du pied, passant par la ligne III-III de la figure 2 ;
  • la figure 4 en est une vue en coupe perpendiculaire à l'axe du pied, passant par la ligne IV-IV de la figure 2 ; et
  • la figure 5 en est une vue similaire à la figure 1, selon une variante.
In any case, the invention will be clearly understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended diagrammatic drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, a preferred embodiment of the barrier which it relates to.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view;
  • Figure 2 is an enlarged view, in mounted section passing through the axis of its foot;
  • Figure 3 is a sectional view perpendicular to the axis of the foot, passing through the line III-III of Figure 2;
  • Figure 4 is a sectional view perpendicular to the axis of the foot, passing through the line IV-IV of Figure 2; and
  • Figure 5 is a view similar to Figure 1, according to a variant.

Les figures représentent sous différents angles une barrière pivotante 1, notamment destinée à réserver l'accès à des voies de circulation prioritaires, utilisées dans des situations d'urgence.The figures show from different angles a pivoting barrier 1, in particular intended to reserve access to priority traffic lanes, used in emergency situations.

Cette barrière 1 comprend un pilier 2 solidaire du sol, destiné à être coiffé par un fût 3 solidaire du bras 4.This barrier 1 comprises a pillar 2 secured to the ground, intended to be capped by a barrel 3 secured to the arm 4.

Le pilier 2 a une forme cylindrique et est solidaire, à son extrémité inférieure, d'une embase 5 pour son ancrage dans le sol et, à son extrémité supérieure, d'une couronne annulaire 6 faisant saillie vers l'extérieur et vers l'intérieur par rapport à sa paroi. La couronne 6 comprend une encoche radiale 7.The pillar 2 has a cylindrical shape and is integral, at its lower end, with a base 5 for its anchoring in the ground and, at its upper end, with an annular ring 6 projecting outward and inward. interior with respect to its wall. The crown 6 includes a radial notch 7.

Le fût 3 comprend un téton radial interne 10, prévu et positionné pour pouvoir être engagé au travers de l'encoche 7 et en dessous de la couronne 6 lorsque le fût 3 est complètement engagé sur le pilier 2.The barrel 3 comprises an internal radial stud 10, provided and positioned so as to be able to be engaged through the notch 7 and below the crown 6 when the barrel 3 is completely engaged on the pillar 2.

Entre le pilier 2 et le fût 3, la barrière 1 comprend deux ensembles de moyens 20,30, dont un 20 est solidaire du pilier 2 et dont l'autre 30 est solidaire du fût 3, ces ensembles 20,30 pouvant être liés en rotation par engagement dans les trous 201 de l'un d'un doigt 301 de l'autre, ce doigt 301 étant manoeuvrable au moyen d'une clé.Between the pillar 2 and the barrel 3, the barrier 1 comprises two sets of means 20.30, one of which 20 is integral with the pillar 2 and the other of which is integral with the barrel 3, these sets 20.30 being able to be linked in rotation by engagement in the holes 201 of one of a finger 301 of the other, this finger 301 being maneuverable by means of a key.

L'ensemble 20 comprend une platine 202, de forme circulaire, comprenant un dégagement périphérique 203, limité par deux oreilles radiales 204, autorisant l'accès du téton interne 10 du fût 3 à l'encoche 7 de la couronne 6. Elle comporte deux parois 205 soudées à sa face supérieure, dont une, diamétrale, sert au montage d'un bloc de verrouillage 206 et dont l'autre sert à la fixation d'une pièce d'assemblage 207.The assembly 20 comprises a plate 202, of circular shape, comprising a peripheral clearance 203, limited by two radial lugs 204, allowing access to the internal stud 10 of the barrel 3 to the notch 7 of the crown 6. It comprises two walls 205 welded to its upper face, one of which, diametrical, is used for mounting a locking block 206 and the other of which is used for fixing an assembly part 207.

Le bloc 206 est sensiblement similaire à celui de la barrière décrite dans la demande de brevet européen N° 0 511 130, tout en étant plus simple, c'est-à-dire comprend les deux trous 201 précités, situés sur la trajectoire que suit le doigt 301 au cours du pivotement du bras 4 et correspondant aux positions extrêmes de pivotement de celui-ci.Block 206 is substantially similar to that of the barrier described in European patent application No. 0 511 130, while being simpler, that is to say comprises the two aforementioned holes 201, located on the path that follows the finger 301 during the pivoting of the arm 4 and corresponding to the extreme pivoting positions of the latter.

Les deux trous 201 ont une profondeur inégale, l'un, correspondant à la position fermée de la barrière 1, ayant une profondeur importante de nature à retenir le doigt 301 afin de procurer une liaison solide entre les ensembles 20 et 30 et l'autre, correspondant à la position ouverte de la barrière 1, n'ayant qu'une faible profondeur autorisant l'échappement de l'extrémité libre chanfreinée du doigt 301, pour simplement retenir sans le verrouiller le bras 4 dans cette position.The two holes 201 have an uneven depth, one corresponding to the closed position of the barrier 1, having a significant depth such as to retain the finger 301 in order to provide a solid connection between the assemblies 20 and 30 and the other , corresponding to the open position of the barrier 1, having only a shallow depth allowing the escape of the chamfered free end of the finger 301, to simply retain without locking the arm 4 in this position.

La profondeur des trous 201 est réglée au moyen de vis radiales 208a,208b, dont une seule des deux a une longueur telle qu'elle vient traverser le trou 201, l'interchangement de ces deux vis d'un trou 201 à l'autre permettant d'adapter, selon les besoins, la profondeur des trous 201 et, par conséquent, la position de verrouillage du bras 4 en fonction du sens de pivotement désiré pour la barrière 1 (horaire ou anti-horaire). Cet interchangement ne peut être réalisé qu'après retrait du fût, à la différence du système décrit dans la demande de brevet européen précitée. Selon une variante, les deux vis 208a,208b ont une longueur telle qu'aucune d'elles ne vient traverser les trous 201. Ainsi, un verrouillage solide de la barrière est réalisé, tant dans sa position de fermeture que d'ouverture.The depth of the holes 201 is adjusted by means of radial screws 208a, 208b, only one of the two of which has a length such that it comes to pass through the hole 201, the interchange of these two screws from one hole 201 to the other making it possible to adapt, as necessary, the depth of the holes 201 and, consequently, the locking position of the arm 4 as a function of the direction of pivoting desired for the barrier 1 (clockwise or counterclockwise). This interchange can only be carried out after removal of the barrel, unlike the system described in the aforementioned European patent application. According to a variant, the two screws 208a, 208b have a length such that neither of them comes to pass through the holes 201. Thus, a solid locking of the barrier is achieved, both in its closed and open position.

En outre, une plaque 209 boulonnée à la face supérieure du bloc 206 constitue une butée de limitation de la course du doigt 301 et de positionnement de celui-ci en face des trous 201.In addition, a plate 209 bolted to the upper face of the block 206 constitutes a stop for limiting the stroke of the finger 301 and for positioning the latter opposite the holes 201.

La pièce d'assemblage 207 comprend deux parties 207a,207b, dont celle horizontale 207a présente un alésage taraudé permettant son vissage sous la couronne 6 à l'aide de la vis 210, qui traverse les platines 202 et la couronne 6, et dont celle verticale 207b traverse une lumière 211 aménagée dans la platine 202 et vient prendre appui contre la paroi 205 voisine que celle-ci comporte, à laquelle elle est boulonnée.The connecting piece 207 comprises two parts 207a, 207b, the horizontal part 207a of which has a threaded bore allowing it to be screwed under the crown 6 using the screw 210, which passes through the plates 202 and the crown 6, and including that vertical 207b passes through a light 211 arranged in the plate 202 and comes to bear against the adjacent wall 205 that the latter comprises, to which it is bolted.

Par ailleurs, la couronne 6 comprend deux doigts 212 faisant saillie de sa face supérieure à l'intérieur du dégagement 203.Furthermore, the crown 6 includes two fingers 212 projecting from its upper face inside the clearance 203.

Egalement de manière similaire à la barrière objet de la demande de brevet européen N° 0 511 130, l'ensemble 30 comprend une platine 302 solidaire d'un plot axial 303 fixé au fût 3. Le plot 303 est traversé par un axe tubulaire 304 présentant un téton 305 profilé, sur lequel l'extrémité de la clé de manoeuvre est destinée à être engagée. L'axe 304 est solidaire d'un doigt 306 qui lui est plus ou moins tangentiel, sur lequel repose un étrier 307 solidaire du doigt 301 précité.Also similar to the barrier which is the subject of European patent application No. 0 511 130, the assembly 30 comprises a plate 302 secured to an axial stud 303 fixed to the barrel 3. The stud 303 is crossed by a tubular axis 304 having a profiled stud 305, on which the end of the operating key is intended to be engaged. The axis 304 is secured to a finger 306 which is more or less tangential thereto, on which rests a stirrup 307 secured to the aforementioned finger 301.

Le pivotement de l'axe 304 réalisé au moyen de la clé de manoeuvre de la barrière 1 fait pivoter le doigt 306 et, par conséquent, soulève l'étrier 307. Lorsque ce dernier repose sur la platine 302, l'extrémité du doigt 301 est engagée dans le trou 201 le plus profond et verrouille la barrière 1 en position fermée, tandis que, lorsque l'étrier 307 est soulevé par le doigt 306, le doigt 301 est extrait du trou 201, ce qui libère le bras 4 et autorise son pivotement.The pivoting of the axis 304 carried out by means of the operating key of the barrier 1 rotates the finger 306 and, consequently, raises the stirrup 307. When the latter rests on the plate 302, the end of the finger 301 is engaged in the deepest hole 201 and locks the barrier 1 in the closed position, while, when the stirrup 307 is lifted by the finger 306, the finger 301 is extracted from the hole 201, which releases the arm 4 and authorizes its pivoting.

L'étrier 307 présente une encoche en forme de V 308 dont la base est prolongée par une encoche en forme de U 309, l'encoche 308, dans la position de l'étrier 307 représentée à la figure 2, correspondant à un verrouillage de la barrière 1, autorisant l'introduction et le retrait de la clé, et l'encoche 309, dans la position soulevée de l'étrier 307, correspondant à un déverrouillage de la barrière 1, interdisant le retrait de l'extrémité de la clé engagée sur le téton profilé 305.The stirrup 307 has a V-shaped notch 308 the base of which is extended by a U-shaped notch 309, the notch 308, in the position of the stirrup 307 shown in FIG. 2, corresponding to a locking of the barrier 1, authorizing the introduction and withdrawal of the key, and the notch 309, in the raised position of the stirrup 307, corresponding to the unlocking of the barrier 1, preventing the withdrawal of the end of the key engaged on the profiled stud 305.

De préférence, ce dernier est porté par une tête interchangeable 310, qui est liée en rotation avec l'axe 304 au moyen d'une goupille 311. Ainsi, la barrière 1 peut être rapidement et facilement adaptée au profil de clé désiré par tel ou tel utilisateur, juste avant livraison, par simple emmanchement, en force ou avec collage, par exemple, de la tête 310 dans l'axe 304.Preferably, the latter is carried by an interchangeable head 310, which is linked in rotation with the axis 304 by means of a pin 311. Thus, the barrier 1 can be quickly and easily adapted to the key profile desired by such or such such user, just before delivery, by simple fitting, by force or with bonding, for example, of the head 310 in the axis 304.

En pratique, lors de l'engagement du fût 3 sur le pilier 2, le téton 10 est introduit dans le dégagement 203, puis sous le bloc 206, puis au travers de l'encoche 7 et enfin sous la couronne 6. Ce trajet n'implique qu'un faible débattement du bras 4, de l'ordre de 20 à 30°.In practice, when the barrel 3 is engaged on the pillar 2, the stud 10 is introduced into the clearance 203, then under the block 206, then through the notch 7 and finally under the crown 6. This path n 'implies that a small movement of the arm 4, of the order of 20 to 30 °.

La couronne 6 constitue un moyen de rétention uniquement axiale du téton 10, et la vis 210, par laquelle l'ensemble 20 est lié en rotation au pilier 2, constitue un organe apte à casser par cisaillement lorsque la barrière 1 est forcée en cas d'urgence, avant qu'un dommage ne risque d'être causé à la structure du pilier 2, et ce, quel que soit le sens de forçage.The crown 6 constitutes a means for retaining only the axial pin 10, and the screw 210, by which the assembly 20 is linked in rotation to the pillar 2, constitutes a member capable of breaking by shearing when the barrier 1 is forced in the event of 'urgency, before damage is likely to be caused to the structure of pillar 2, regardless of the direction of forcing.

L'interchangement de la pièce 207 comprenant la partie sectionnée de la vis 210, par une autre pièce identique, permet de remplacer aisément et rapidement la vis 210, sans avoir à retirer ladite partie sectionnée. En outre, la forme en crochet de la partie 207b de la pièce 207 permet la rétention de l'ensemble 20 sur l'extrémité du pilier 2 lors du retrait du fût 3, sans risque de retenue de cet ensemble 20 dans le fût 3 suite, par exemple, à une légère déformation de la paroi de celui-ci.The interchange of the part 207 comprising the sectioned part of the screw 210, by another identical part, makes it possible to easily and quickly replace the screw 210, without having to remove said sectioned part. In addition, the hook shape of the part 207b of the part 207 allows the retention of the assembly 20 on the end of the pillar 2 during the withdrawal of the barrel 3, without risk of retaining this assembly 20 in the barrel 3 continued , for example, a slight deformation of the wall thereof.

Les tétons 212 servent de butée aux oreilles radiales 204 et empêchent ainsi le recouvrement de l'encoche 7 par la platine 202 après sectionnement de la vis 210, tout en autorisant un débattement du bras 4 équivalent à une ouverture normale de la barrière 1.The pins 212 serve as a stop for the radial ears 204 and thus prevent the recess of the notch 7 by the plate 202 after sectioning of the screw 210, while allowing a movement of the arm 4 equivalent to a normal opening of the barrier 1.

Selon une première variante de réalisation de l'invention, du côté opposé au doigt 301, l'étrier 307 comprend un doigt carré 315 se trouvant sur la trajectoire d'un téton radial 316 solidaire d'une poignée 317 dépassant à l'extérieur du fût 3 et d'un bras 318. L'ensemble pivote autour d'un axe porté par un palier en U solidaire de la platine 302. A son extrémité libre, le bras 318 traverse une lumière aménagée dans un coulisseau 330 raccordé à l'extrémité d'une tringle 319, engagée dans le bras 4, pouvant coulisser dans celui-ci et comprenant un pêne 320 à son extrémité, qui dépasse de l'extrémité libre du bras 4. Ce pêne 320 est apte à être engagé dans une gâche 321 aménagée dans un pilier 322 situé en face de l'extrémité du bras 4. Le doigt 315 interdit la manoeuvre de la poignée 317 lorsque l'étrier 307 est dans la position représentée à la figure 2, et ne l'autorise que quand l'étrier 307 est soulevé, donc lorsque le déverrouillage de la barrière 1 a été réalisé à l'aide de la clé.According to a first alternative embodiment of the invention, on the side opposite to the finger 301, the stirrup 307 comprises a square finger 315 lying on the path of a radial stud 316 secured to a handle 317 projecting outside the barrel 3 and an arm 318. The assembly pivots about an axis carried by a U-shaped bearing secured to the plate 302. At its free end, the arm 318 passes through a light arranged in a slide 330 connected to the end of a rod 319, engaged in the arm 4, which can slide therein and comprising a bolt 320 at its end, which protrudes from the free end of the arm 4. This bolt 320 is suitable for be engaged in a keeper 321 arranged in a pillar 322 located opposite the end of the arm 4. The finger 315 prohibits the operation of the handle 317 when the stirrup 307 is in the position shown in FIG. 2, and does not l 'authorizes that when the stirrup 307 is raised, therefore when the barrier 1 has been unlocked using the key.

Ainsi, la barrière 1 selon cette variante, c'est-à-dire équipée d'un tel verrouillage de l'extrémité du bras 4, peut être verrouillée avec interdiction de toute possibilité de forçage.Thus, the barrier 1 according to this variant, that is to say equipped with such a locking of the end of the arm 4, can be locked with prohibition of any possibility of forcing.

Selon une autre variante de réalisation de l'invention, représentée à la figure 5, le fût 3 est solidaire d'un tube radial 340 dans lequel peut coulisser un pêne 341. L'une des extrémités du pêne 341 est engagée à l'intérieur du fût 3 et comprend, en partie inférieure, un prolongement 341a, dont l'épaisseur est inférieure à la course du doigt 315 lors du déverrouillage de la barrière 1. L'autre extrémité du pêne 341 est destinée à être engagée dans une gâche 342 aménagée dans un pilier 343. En outre, le pêne 341 comprend un doigt radial de manoeuvre 344, débouchant à l'extérieur du tube 340 au travers d'une lumière oblongue 345.According to another alternative embodiment of the invention, shown in FIG. 5, the barrel 3 is integral with a radial tube 340 in which a bolt 341 can slide. One end of the bolt 341 is engaged inside of the barrel 3 and comprises, in the lower part, an extension 341a, the thickness of which is less than the stroke of the finger 315 when the barrier 1 is unlocked. The other end of the bolt 341 is intended to be engaged in a keeper 342 arranged in a pillar 343. In addition, the bolt 341 comprises a radial actuating finger 344, opening to the outside of the tube 340 through an oblong slot 345.

A l'état verrouillé de la barrière 1, représenté à la figure 5, le doigt 315 empêche le coulissement du pêne 341, le prolongement 341a venant buter contre lui. Lorsque la barrière 1 est déverrouillée au moyen de la clé de manoeuvre, amenant à un soulèvement de l'étrier 307, et donc du doigt 315, le pêne 341 peut coulisser et libérer la rotation du bras 4.In the locked state of the barrier 1, shown in FIG. 5, the finger 315 prevents the bolt 341 from sliding, the extension 341a abutting against it. When the barrier 1 is unlocked by means of the operating key, leading to a lifting of the stirrup 307, and therefore of the finger 315, the bolt 341 can slide and release the rotation of the arm 4.
