Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fixation amovible d'un but sur un terrain de sport, tel qu'il est connu du document FR-A-2 610 205.The present invention relates to a removable fixing device for a goal on a sports field, as is known from document FR-A-2 610 205.

Au cours de ces dernières années, l'usage de buts mobiles sur les terrains de sport s'est très largement répandu car cela permet entre autre une plus grande polyvalence des terrains de sport.In recent years, the use of mobile goals on sports fields has become very widespread, as this allows, among other things, greater versatility on sports fields.

Un but mobile est un bâti, en général de forme prismatique, avec deux montants reliés en partie haute par une barre transversale constituant l'ouverture du but et deux parties latérales, inférieures, horizontales, reliées à la base des deux montants, une éventuelle traverse arrière et enfin deux jambes inclinées reliant la partie arrière à chaque extrémité de la barre transversale.A movable goal is a frame, in general of prismatic shape, with two uprights connected in the upper part by a transverse bar constituting the opening of the goal and two lateral, lower, horizontal parts, connected to the base of the two uprights, a possible cross-member rear and finally two inclined legs connecting the rear part to each end of the crossbar.

Ces buts sont relativement stables contre le renversement vers l'arrière mais leur basculement vers l'avant sur les terrains de sport à provoqué de nombreux accidents graves parfois mortels, aussi de tels buts mobiles ne sont-ils plus autorisés sans qu'ils soient solidement ancrés au sol.These goals are relatively stable against overturning backwards but their tilting forward on sports grounds has caused many serious and sometimes fatal accidents, so such mobile goals are no longer allowed without being securely anchored to the ground.

La présente invention a pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients et se propose de créer un moyen permettant de bloquer de manière amovible un but sans nécessiter l'implantation dans le sol de pièces d'ancrage, fixées définitivement ou risquant d'abîmer le gazon ou plus généralement le terrain de sport, ou pour permettre l'utilisation des buts mobiles existants, non munis d'un système d'ancrage au sol, en n'importe quel endroit du terrain de sport.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and proposes to create a means for removably blocking a goal without require the installation in the ground of anchoring parts, permanently fixed or likely to damage the lawn or more generally the sports field, or to allow the use of existing mobile goals, not equipped with an anchoring system on the ground, anywhere on the sports field.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation amovible caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend :

  • une plaque de fixation destinée à se fixer à une partie du but mobile,
    cette plaque comportant un tube de guidage, incliné par rapport à la plaque à laquelle il est fixé,
  • une tige d'ancrage munie d'une partie filetée à filet large et dont l'autre extrémité est terminée par une collerette d'appui et d'une pièce de prise,
  • un outil qui se fixe de manière amovible sur la pièce de prise pour visser la tige d'ancrage introduite dans le tube, dans le sol, ou l'en dévisser,
  • un capuchon de protection qui se place sur le tube.
To this end, the invention relates to a removable fixing device characterized in that it comprises:
  • a fixing plate intended to be fixed to a part of the movable goal,
    this plate comprising a guide tube, inclined relative to the plate to which it is fixed,
  • an anchor rod provided with a threaded part with a wide thread and the other end of which is terminated by a support flange and a grip part,
  • a tool which is removably fixed on the grip part to screw the anchor rod introduced into the tube, into the ground, or unscrew it,
  • a protective cap which is placed on the tube.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la tige d'ancrage comporte une partie lisse entre la partie filetée et la pièce de prise, la longueur de cette partie lisse correspondant sensiblement à la longueur du tube de guidage.According to another characteristic of the invention, the anchoring rod comprises a smooth part between the threaded part and the grip part, the length of this smooth part corresponding substantially to the length of the guide tube.

Suivant d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention :

  • la pièce de prise est une tête hexagonale, une empreinte cruciforme ou hexagonale et l'outil comporte une pièce de forme complémentaire,
  • l'outil est une manivelle.
According to other characteristics of the invention:
  • the gripping part is a hexagonal head, a cruciform or hexagonal imprint and the tool comprises a part of complementary shape,
  • the tool is a crank.

Le dispositif de fixation selon l'invention se met en place de manière très simple et assure un blocage parfait du but au sol. Ce moyen de fixation s'enlève très facilement par simple dévissage des tiges d'ancrage. Le but peut alors être transporté pour être rangé ou être déplacé.The fixing device according to the invention is set up very simply and ensures perfect blocking of the goal on the ground. This fixing means is very easily removed by simply unscrewing the anchor rods. The goal can then be transported to be stored or moved.

La mise en place du ou des dispositifs de fixation se fait de manière extrêmement rapide d'autant plus qu'une partie de chaque dispositif de fixation peut rester fixée au but pendant son déplacement, soit vers un emplacement de rangement, soit vers un autre emplacement. De ce fait, la seule opération effectuée chaque fois est celle de placer une tige d'ancrage dans le tube de la plaque de fixation, de visser cette tige d'ancrage dans le sol et de placer le capuchon de protection par-dessus le tube et la tête de la tige d'ancrage.The installation of the fixing device (s) is done extremely quickly, all the more so since part of each fixing device can remain fixed to the goal during its movement, either towards a storage location, or towards another location. . Therefore, the only operation performed each time is that of placing an anchor rod in the tube of the fixing plate, screwing this anchor rod into the ground and placing the protective cap over the tube. and the head of the anchor rod.

Comme la tige comporte un collerette constituant une butée de vissage prenant appui sur le dessus du tube fixé à la plaque, le vissage ne peut se poursuivre que jusqu'à ce que la collerette soit en butée. Cela protège la tige d'ancrage contre tout vissage excessif qui diminuerait la stabilité de l'ancrage et compliquerait le dévissage.As the rod has a flange constituting a screwing stop bearing on the top of the tube fixed to the plate, screwing can only continue until the flange is in abutment. This protects the anchor rod against excessive screwing which would reduce the stability of the anchor and complicate unscrewing.

Le fait que la tige d'ancrage soit placée et vissée à travers le tube de guidage permet de fixer l'angle de vissage dans le sol en évitant que la tige ne soit vissée perpendiculairement à la plaque ce qui réduirait considérablement son efficacité. De plus, la tenue de l'assemblage est considérablement améliorée et résiste parfaitement aux vibrations induites dans la plaque, par exemple lorsqu'un joueur s'accroche à la barre transversale, secoue celle-ci ou tente de renverser le but. En effet, la plaque, son tube incliné et la tige d'ancrage prenant appui sur le tube par sa collerette, constitue un ensemble rigide.The fact that the anchor rod is placed and screwed through the guide tube makes it possible to fix the screwing angle in the ground, preventing the rod from being screwed perpendicularly to the plate, which would considerably reduce its effectiveness. In addition, the behavior of the assembly is considerably improved and perfectly resists the vibrations induced in the plate, for example when a player clings to the crossbar, shakes it or tries to overturn the goal. Indeed, the plate, its inclined tube and the anchoring rod bearing on the tube by its flange, constitutes a rigid assembly.

Cette tenue de la liaison ou même du blocage entre la tige d'ancrage, le tube et la plaque de fixation est encore augmentée du fait que l'extrémité de la tige d'ancrage qui se trouve dans le tube une fois le vissage terminé, est une surface cylindrique, lisse (et non pas une partie filetée) ce qui augmente la surface d'appui tige/tube.This holding of the connection or even of the blocking between the anchor rod, the tube and the fixing plate is further increased by the fact that the end of the anchor rod which is in the tube once the screwing is completed, is a smooth cylindrical surface (not a threaded part) which increases the rod / tube support surface.

Le vissage se fait d'une manière extrêmement rapide. Le dévissage est non seulement rendu possible mais est.particulièrement facile et rapide. Ce moyen de fixation amovible des buts, qui se met en place très rapidement, facilite également les transformations du terrain, l'enlèvement des buts mobiles, leur rangement, etc...Screwing is done extremely quickly. Unscrewing is not only made possible but is particularly easy and quick. This removable fastening means of the goals, which is put in place very quickly, also facilitates the transformations of the ground, the removal of the mobile goals, their storage, etc ...

La présente invention sera décrite ci-après de manière plus détaillée à l'aide d'un exemple de réalisation représenté schématiquement aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • les figures 1, 2, 3 sont des vues en perspective d'un but mobile équipé de deux, trois ou quatre dispositifs de fixation selon l'invention.
  • la figure 4 est une vue en coupe schématique au droit d'un dispositif de fixation de but mobile selon l'invention.
  • la figure 5 est une vue en perspective de la plaque du dispositif.
  • la figure 6 est une vue en coupe du dispositif.
The present invention will be described below in more detail using an embodiment shown schematically in the accompanying drawings in which:
  • Figures 1, 2, 3 are perspective views of a movable goal equipped with two, three or four fixing devices according to the invention.
  • Figure 4 is a schematic sectional view to the right of a movable goal fixing device according to the invention.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective view of the device plate.
  • Figure 6 is a sectional view of the device.

Selon les figures 1, 2, 3 l'invention est destinée à la fixation amovible d'un but mobile 1. Ce but mobile 1 se compose, comme cela est usuel, de deux montants 2, 3 reliés en partie haute par une barre transversale 4. Chaque montant 2, 3 est relié vers l'arrière à une barre horizontale 5, 6 et l'extrémité arrière des deux barres horizontales est reliée éventuellement par une traverse horizontale 7. Enfin, l'ensemble est stabilisé par deux jambages 8, 9 reliant chaque extrémité de la barre horizontale à l'extrémité de la barre transversale et reçoit un filet. Ces tubes sont en général des tubes cylindriques pour des raisons de sécurité.According to Figures 1, 2, 3 the invention is intended for the removable fixing of a movable goal 1. This movable goal 1 consists, as is usual, of two uprights 2, 3 connected in the upper part by a transverse bar 4. Each upright 2, 3 is connected rearwards to a horizontal bar 5, 6 and the rear end of the two horizontal bars is possibly connected by a horizontal crosspiece 7. Finally, the assembly is stabilized by two legs 8, 9 connecting each end of the horizontal bar to the end of the crossbar and receives a net. These tubes are generally cylindrical tubes for safety reasons.

Selon l'invention, le but mobile 1 représenté aux figures 1, 2, 3 est fixé au sol par deux, trois ou quatre dispositifs de fixation 10, 11, 12, 13, 14. Selon la nature du terrain et les conditions d'utilisation, on utilisera soit un seul dispositif de fixation par côté inférieur du but, soit deux (en cas de terrain meuble, mouillé, etc...).According to the invention, the movable goal 1 shown in Figures 1, 2, 3 is fixed to the ground by two, three or four fixing devices 10, 11, 12, 13, 14. Depending on the nature of the ground and the conditions of use, we will use either a single fixing device per lower side of the goal, or two (in the case of loose, wet ground, etc ...).

Selon les figures 4, 5, 6 le dispositif de fixation 15 se compose d'une plaque de fixation 16 destinée à être plaquée au sol 17. Cette plaque 16 est munie d'un collier 18 de dimension adaptée pour se fixer à une barre horizontale 5, 6, 7 du but comme cela est indiqué aux figures 1, 2, 3. Cette plaque pourrait également être soudée à la barre horizontale (5, 6, 7). La plaque de fixation 16 est munie d'un tube de guidage 19, fixé à cette plaque, par exemple soudé. Ce tube de guidage 19 est incliné par rapport à la direction horizontale représentée par la plaque, suivant un angle par exemple de 60°. Ce tube 19 a une certaine longueur. Il reçoit une tige d'ancrage 20 munie sur une partie de sa longueur d'un filetage 21. Ce filetage 21 est à filet large ; il peut être en forme de ruban hélicoïdal terminé par une pointe 22. Au-delà de la partie filetée, la tige d'ancrage 20 comporte de préférence une partie cylindrique 23 lisse. La section intérieure du tube 19 et la section de la tige d'ancrage 20 sont choisies pour que la tige d'ancrage puisse coulisser dans le tube sans laisser un jeu trop important (c'est-à-dire sans flotter).According to Figures 4, 5, 6 the fixing device 15 consists of a fixing plate 16 intended to be pressed to the ground 17. This plate 16 is provided with a collar 18 of dimension adapted to be fixed to a horizontal bar 5, 6, 7 of the goal as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3. This plate could also be welded to the horizontal bar (5, 6, 7). The fixing plate 16 is provided with a guide tube 19, fixed to this plate, for example welded. This guide tube 19 is inclined relative to the horizontal direction represented by the plate, at an angle for example of 60 °. This tube 19 has a certain length. It receives an anchor rod 20 provided over a part of its length with a thread 21. This thread 21 has a wide thread; it may be in the form of a helical ribbon terminated by a point 22. Beyond the threaded part, the anchoring rod 20 preferably comprises a smooth cylindrical part 23. The inner section of the tube 19 and the section of the anchor rod 20 are chosen so that the anchor rod can slide in the tube without leaving too much play (that is to say without floating).

A son extrémité supérieure, c'est-à-dire celle non enfoncée dans le sol, la tige 20 comporte une collerette d'appui 24 de largeur suffisante pour déborder et venir dans la position représentée à la figure 2 en appui contre le bord du tube 19. Enfin, elle se termine par une pièce de prise 25. Cette pièce de prise 25 peut être positive, c'est-à-dire en relief ou négative, c'est-à-dire en creux. Cette pièce de prise 25 est usuellement constituée par une tête de vis hexagonale. Il peut également s'agir d'une empreinte cruciforme ou à six pans.At its upper end, that is to say that which is not sunk into the ground, the rod 20 has a support flange 24 of sufficient width to overflow and come into the position shown in FIG. 2 bearing against the edge of the tube 19. Finally, it ends with a gripping piece 25. This gripping piece 25 can be positive, that is to say in relief or negative, that is to say hollow. This gripping piece 25 is usually formed by a hexagonal screw head. It can also be a cruciform or hexagonal impression.

Pour visser la tige d'ancrage 20 dans le sol jusqu'à la position représentée à la figure 2, on introduit d'abord librement la tige dans le tube 19 et avec un outil 26 muni d'une tête 27 de forme complémentaire à celle de la pièce de prise 25 on visse la tige d'ancrage 20. Dans l'exemple représenté, cet outil 26 est une manivelle. Cette opération de vissage est extrêmement rapide. A titre d'exemple, une tige d'ancrage pourra avoir une longueur de l'ordre de 60 cm et le vissage se fera en moins d'une minute.To screw the anchor rod 20 into the ground to the position shown in FIG. 2, the rod is first freely introduced into the tube 19 and with a tool 26 provided with a head 27 of shape complementary to that of the grip 25 is screwed the anchor rod 20. In the example shown, this tool 26 is a crank. This screwing operation is extremely fast. For example, an anchor rod may have a length of the order of 60 cm and the screwing will be done in less than a minute.

Le monteur constatera la fin du vissage lorsque la collerette 25 de la tige d'ancrage 20 sera en appui contre le bord du tube 19. A ce moment, il enlève son outil de vissage 26 et met en place un capuchon de protection 28. Ce capuchon 28 est de préférence en une matière souple, pour éviter que le tube 19 et la tige 20 ne constituent une partie en saillie, dangereuse.The editor will note the end of the screwing when the flange 25 of the anchor rod 20 will be in abutment against the edge of the tube 19. At this time, he removes his screwing tool 26 and puts in place a protective cap 28. This cap 28 is preferably made of a flexible material, to prevent the tube 19 and the rod 20 from forming a dangerous projecting part.

Il est à remarquer que le dispositif de fixation amovible 15 selon l'invention peut être protégé contre les actes de vandalisme. En effet, il est particulièrement difficile d'arracher le but mobile ; il est tout aussi difficile d'arracher séparément une tige puisque de l'extérieur on n'a pratiquement aucune prise. Seul le dévissage permet d'extraire la tige 20. Or, en choisissant une forme de prise particulière, ne correspondant pas à une tête hexagonale de vis mais une forme particulière, on complique les tentatives de vandalisme.It should be noted that the removable fixing device 15 according to the invention can be protected against acts of vandalism. Indeed, it is particularly difficult to tear off the mobile goal; it is just as difficult to tear off a rod separately since from the outside there is practically no taken. Only the unscrewing makes it possible to extract the rod 20. However, by choosing a particular form of grip, not corresponding to a hexagonal screw head but a particular form, attempts at vandalism are complicated.

De plus, la facilité extrêmement grande avec laquelle les tiges d'ancrage 20 se dévissent, ne justifie nullement le fait de laisser en place le but mobile, pendant les périodes de non utilisation ou la nuit, au motif que l'ancrage serait difficile à enlever.In addition, the extremely great ease with which the anchor rods 20 unscrew, in no way justifies leaving the movable goal in place, during periods of non-use or at night, on the grounds that the anchoring would be difficult to to take off.

Il est clair que les différentes pièces et en particulier la tige d'ancrage peuvent être réalisées dans des matériaux difficilement oxydables ou protégés contre l'oxydation par un traitement de surface.It is clear that the different parts and in particular the anchor rod can be made of materials which are difficult to oxidize or which are protected against oxidation by a surface treatment.
