Description
L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif d'aiguillage pour convoyeurs suspendus.The invention relates to a switching device for hanging conveyors.
Notamment dans les installations de confection de vêtements, pour transférer les vêtements d'un poste de travail à un autre, on utilise des convoyeurs formant une pluralité de boucles, chacune étant généralement reliée à une voie de transport principale, notamment par des dispositifs d'aiguillage.Particularly in the manufacturing facilities of clothes, to transfer clothes from a work station to another, conveyors are used forming a plurality of loops, each of which is generally connected to a main transport, in particular by devices referral.
Classiquement, ces convoyeurs suspendus comprennent des rails qui sont portés par une structure et, par exemple, sont reliés à un élément porteur notamment à l'aide de suspentes rigides.Conventionally, these hanging conveyors include rails which are carried by a structure and, for example, are connected to a load-bearing element, in particular using hangers rigid.
Classiquement, un dispositif d'aiguillage (DE-A-2426550, US-A-4.016.818) comprend deux tronçons de rail dits mobiles, destinés à relier entre elles, mécaniquement, ou à interrompre la liaison entre elles des extrémités de rails fixes par exemple un rail principal et deux rails secondaires, lequel tronçon mobile a :
- d'une part, l'une de ses extrémités qui est associée à l'un des rails fixes par une articulation et,
- d'autre part, son autre extrémité, dite libre, qui peut prendre deux positions singulières, l'une dite de passage lorsque cette extrémité libre est en vis à vis de la face extrême d'un autre rail fixe et assure ainsi la continuité entre ces deux rails fixes et l'autre dite d'attente lorsque cette extrémité libre se trouve écartée de la face extrême d'un autre rail fixe.
- on the one hand, one of its ends which is associated with one of the fixed rails by an articulation and,
- on the other hand, its other end, called free, which can take two singular positions, one called passage when this free end is opposite the end face of another fixed rail and thus ensures continuity between these two fixed rails and the other called waiting when this free end is spaced from the end face of another fixed rail.
Classiquement, l'articulation est d'un type à un degré de liberté de sorte que le tronçon mobile n'est réellement maintenu que par la dite articulation et la trajectoire de son extrémité libre est définie exclusivement par la position de l'axe d'articulation.Classically, the articulation is of a type with a degree of freedom so that the moving section is actually maintained only by said articulation and the trajectory of its free end is defined exclusively by the position of the axis of articulation.
La face avant du tronçon mobile est nécessairement suffisamment écartée de la face extrême du rail fixe considéré pour permettre l'échappement de l'extrémité libre du tronçon mobile depuis sa position dite de passage vers sa position d'attente mais, néanmoins suffisamment proche pour ne pas nuire au passage sans à-coup des chariots d'un rail à un autre.The front face of the mobile section is necessarily sufficiently spaced from the end face of the fixed rail considered to allow the free end of the section to escape movable from its so-called passage position to its position waiting but nevertheless close enough not to interfere with smooth movement of carts from one rail to another other.
Quelle que soit, en l'absence de charge, l'importance de ce jeu, cette face avant du tronçon mobile n'est pas en appui sur l'extrémité du rail fixe mais lorsqu'une charge circule sur ce tronçon, elle inflige, à ce tronçon, une flexion variable avec la charge et, à l'axe d'articulation, une sollicitation qui pourrait provoquer, sinon un cisaillement, au moins une usure rapide de cette articulation par frottement et/ou une déformation qui nuirait au bon fonctionnement du tronçon mobile.Whatever, in the absence of charge, the importance of this play, this front face of the movable section is not in abutment on the end of the fixed rail but when a load circulates on this section, it inflicts, on this section, a bending variable with the load and, at the axis of articulation, a stress which could cause, if not shear, at least rapid wear of this articulation by friction and / or a deformation that would affect the proper functioning of the mobile section.
La commande du déplacement du tronçon mobile peut être réalisée à l'aide d'un moyen moteur mais plus généralement celle-ci est faite manuellement par un préposé.The movement of the mobile section can be controlled performed using a motor means but more generally this is done manually by an attendant.
Pour cela, le préposé doit générer une force orthogonale à l'axe d'articulation.For this, the attendant must generate a force orthogonal to the axis of articulation.
Malheureusement, compte-tenu de la position en hauteur de ces convoyeurs et donc du tronçon mobile à déplacer, il n'est pas rare que le geste du préposé développe tant une force orthogonale à cet axe d'articulation qu'une force sensiblement parallèle à cet axe d'articulation.Unfortunately, given the height position of these conveyors and therefore of the mobile section to be moved, it is not not uncommon for the attendant's gesture to develop so much strength orthogonal to this axis of articulation that a force substantially parallel to this axis of articulation.
Ces actions répétées qui sollicitent en flexion le tronçon mobile finissent généralement par accentuer le jeu de l'articulation et conduisent à un défaut de fonctionnement de l'aiguillage. These repeated actions which stress the section in bending mobile generally end up accentuating the game of the joint and lead to a malfunction of the referral.
On connaít un aiguillage US-E-17830 comprenant un seul tronçon mobile dont l'extrémité libre s'appuie constamment sur une pièce en arc de cercle.We know a switch US-E-17830 comprising a single mobile section whose free end is constantly supported by a piece in an arc.
Cette pièce en arc de cercle est portée par une structure qui s'étend au dessus de la trajectoire du tronçon mobile.This circular arc piece is carried by a structure which extends above the path of the movable section.
Une telle structure ne pourrait convenir pour un aiguillage à deux tronçons mobiles.Such a structure would not be suitable for a switch with two mobile sections.
Un des résultats que l'invention vise à obtenir est un dispositif du type cité plus haut qui remédie aux problèmes évoqués plus haut.One of the results that the invention aims to obtain is a device of the type mentioned above which remedies the problems mentioned above.
A cet effet, l'invention se rapporte à un tel dispositif d'aiguillage notamment caractérisé en ce que l'extrémité libre d'au moins un tronçon mobile est soutenue sensiblement sur la totalité de sa trajectoire par un élément de suspension reliant ladite extrémité libre à au moins un point d'appui qui, situé au dessus du plan défini par la trajectoire dudit tronçon mobile considéré, est sensiblement sur l'axe du moyen d'articulation du tronçon mobile de manière à définir un triangle.To this end, the invention relates to such a device switch particularly characterized in that the free end at least one movable section is supported substantially on the its entire trajectory by a suspension element connecting said free end to at least one support point which, located above the plane defined by the trajectory of said mobile section considered, is substantially on the axis of the means of articulation of the mobile section so as to define a triangle.
L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faite à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin ci-annexé qui représente schématiquement :
- figure 1 : vue de dessus, une installation de convoyage,
- figure 2 : le dispositif d'aiguillage vu de profil,
- figure 3 : une coupe selon III III de la figure 2.
- Figure 1: top view, a conveying installation,
- FIG. 2: the switching device seen in profile,
- Figure 3: a section along III III of Figure 2.
Au dessin, on a représenté partiellement une installation
1 de convoyage, par exemple, pour un atelier de confection de
vêtements qui, pour transférer les vêtements d'un poste de
travail à un autre, comprend une pluralité de boucles,
chacune étant généralement reliée à une voie 2 dite
principale de transport par l'intermédiaire de dispositifs
d'aiguillage 3.In the drawing, an installation is partially represented
1 conveyor, for example, for a workshop for making
clothes which to transfer the clothes from a post to
work to another, includes a plurality of loops,
each generally connected to a so-called channel 2
main transport via
Classiquement, ces rails sont portés par une structure 4
et, par exemple, sont reliés à un élément porteur notamment à
l'aide de suspentes 20.Conventionally, these rails are carried by a
Le dispositif d'aiguillage comprend deux tronçons 5, 6 de rail, dits mobiles, destinés à relier entre elles, mécaniquement, les extrémités d'au moins deux rails 2, 7, 8 fixes, telles les extrémités d'un rail principal 2 et de deux rails secondaires 7, 8, lequel tronçon mobile 5, 6 a :
- d'une part, l'une 5a, 6a de ses
extrémités 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b qui est associée à l'un des rails fixes par unearticulation 9, 10 et, - d'autre part, son autre extrémité 5b, 6b, dite libre, qui peut prendre deux positions singulières, l'une dite de passage lorsque cette extrémité libre est en vis à vis de la face extrême d'un rail fixe pour assurer une continuité entre deux rails fixes et l'autre dite d'attente lorsque cette extrémité libre se trouve écartée de la face extrême précitée.
- on the one hand, one 5a, 6a of its
ends 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b which is associated with one of the fixed rails by anarticulation 9, 10 and, - on the other hand, its other end 5b, 6b, called free, which can take two singular positions, one called passage when this free end is opposite the end face of a fixed rail to ensure continuity between two fixed rails and the other called waiting when this free end is spaced from the aforementioned end face.
Le tronçon mobile peut être rectiligne ou courbe.The mobile section can be straight or curved.
L'articulation 9, 10 est d'un type à un degré de liberté
de sorte que le tronçon mobile n'est réellement maintenu que
par la dite articulation et sa trajectoire est définie
exclusivement par la position de l'axe d'articulation.The
Le rail a, de préférence, une section en Vé inversé et ce sont les deux branches 12, 13 du Vé qui servent de pistes de roulement pour des organes de roulement que présentent des chariots (non représentés) circulant sur les rails suspendus.The rail preferably has an inverted V section and this are the two branches 12, 13 of the Vé which serve as tracks of bearing for rolling elements which have trolleys (not shown) running on the suspended rails.
Pour permettre le libre passage des chariots suspendus, les suspentes sont fixées sur la pointe du Vé, par exemple à l'aide d'un cordon de soudure.To allow the free passage of hanging trolleys, the lines are attached to the tip of the Vé, for example at using a weld bead.
La face avant du tronçon mobile est nécessairement écartée de la face extrême du rail fixe considéré pour permettre l'échappement de l'extrémité libre du tronçon mobile depuis sa position dite de passage vers sa position d'attente même si cet écart reste faible afin de ne pas nuire au passage sans à-coup des chariots (non représentés) d'un rail à l'autre.The front face of the mobile section is necessarily separated of the end face of the fixed rail considered to allow the exhaust of the free end of the movable section from its so-called transition position to its waiting position even if this gap remains small so as not to hinder the smooth passage carriages (not shown) from one rail to another.
Avantageusement, au lieu que la face extrême 21 du tronçon
mobile soit orthogonale à l'axe longitudinal 22 du tronçon
considéré, celle-ci est inclinée sur cet axe depuis la pointe
du Vé vers l'arrière du tronçon mobile à la manière d'une
coupe biaise et la face extrême 23 du rail fixe est également
inclinée sur son axe pour rester évidemment parallèle à la
face extrême 21 du tronçon mobile.Advantageously, instead of the
Avantageusement, on fait en sorte que l'axe de rotation 24
du tronçon mobile 5, 6 jouxte le bord latéral de ce tronçon
mobile sensiblement à l'intersection de la face arrière du
tronçon mobile et du bord latéral du côté duquel le tronçon
mobile échappe du tronçon fixe. C'est ainsi qu'est permis
l'écart minimum entre la partie fixe et la partie mobile sans
nuire à son échappement.Advantageously, it is made so that the axis of
Le chemin de roulement est donc pratiquement continu et les roues du chariot passent bien d'un rail à un autre.The raceway is therefore practically continuous and the carriage wheels pass well from one rail to another.
Selon l'invention, l'extrémité libre 5b, 6b d'au moins un
tronçon mobile est soutenue sensiblement sur la totalité de sa
trajectoire par un élément 25 de suspension reliant ladite
extrémité libre 5b, 6b à au moins un point d'appui 26 qui,
situé au dessus du plan défini par la trajectoire dudit
tronçon mobile considéré, est sensiblement sur l'axe 24 du
moyen d'articulation 9, 10 du tronçon mobile.According to the invention, the free end 5b, 6b of at least one
mobile section is supported substantially over its entire
trajectory by a
Dans une forme de réalisation (non représentée), l'élément de suspension est du type à longueur variable suivant la trajectoire de l'extrémité du tronçon mobile et sa variation est commandée en fonction de la position du tronçon mobile le long de la trajectoire.In one embodiment (not shown), the element of suspension is of the variable length type depending on the trajectory of the end of the mobile section and its variation is controlled according to the position of the movable section the along the trajectory.
Par exemple, il s'agit d'un élément élastique de raideur prédéterminée.For example, it is an elastic element of stiffness predetermined.
Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'élément de
suspension 25 est de longueur fixe tel un tirant.In another embodiment, the element of
Eventuellement ce tirant peut être déformé pour contourner une partie de la structure.Possibly this tie can be deformed to circumvent part of the structure.
Selon l'invention, au moins l'une des extrémités de
l'élément de suspension est associée à l'une des pièces que
sont le point d'appui et le tronçon mobile par un moyen
d'articulation 27.According to the invention, at least one of the ends of
the suspension element is associated with one of the parts that
are the fulcrum and the movable section by a
Ce moyen d'articulation de l'élément de suspension peut être du type à plusieurs degrés de liberté.This means of articulation of the suspension element can be of the type with several degrees of freedom.
Par exemple, l'un 28 des axes de ce moyen d'articulation
reliant le point d'appui 26 et l'élément de suspension 25 est
colinéaire à l'axe 24 du moyen d'articulation du tronçon
mobile associant celui-ci à la partie fixe de la structure qui
le supporte.For example, one of the axes of this articulation means
connecting the
Le moyen d'articulation 27 de l'élément de suspension 25
et le moyen d'articulation 9,10 du tronçon mobile sont situés
de part et d'autre de la portion de structure supportant ledit
tronçon mobile, ceci par rapport à un plan sensiblement
horizontal.The articulation means 27 of the
Le dispositif d'aiguillage comprend généralement deux tronçons mobiles, chacun d'eux étant relié par une articulation 9,10 à un des rails fixes tels les rails secondaires.The referral device generally includes two mobile sections, each of which is connected by a joint 9,10 to one of the fixed rails such as the secondary rails.
Ces tronçons mobiles sont conformés pour que les extrémités libres occupent alternativement la position de passage reliant ainsi l'un ou l'autre des rails secondaires avec le rail principal.These mobile sections are shaped so that the free ends alternately occupy the position of passage thus connecting one or the other of the secondary rails with the main rail.
Pour leur déplacement, les tronçons mobiles sont pourvus
d'un moyen 19 de commande synchronisé de leur déplacement.For their movement, the mobile sections are provided
a
Selon l'invention, le moyen de commande synchronisé
comprend une biellette 19 qui relie au moins indirectement les
extrémités des tronçons mobiles.According to the invention, the synchronized control means
comprises a
De préférence, l'ensemble que sont les deux tronçons mobiles et le moyen de commande est conçu de manière que l'un des tronçons mobiles occupe préférentiellement une des positions singulières.Preferably, the assembly which are the two sections mobile and the control means is designed so that one mobile sections preferably occupies one of the singular positions.
Par exemple, l'un d'eux est plus lourd ou l'ensemble comprend un organe de rappel (non représenté).For example, one of them is heavier or the whole includes a return member (not shown).
Généralement, la position la plus habituelle de l'aiguillage est celle où notamment le tronçon mobile qui est alors courbe est levé et le tube support de rail qui supporte ce rail courbe n'est pas juste à la verticale du rail courbe mais est un peu décalé.Generally, the most usual position of the switch is the one where in particular the mobile section which is then curve is lifted and the rail support tube which supports this curved rail is not just vertical to the curved rail but is a bit offbeat.
