  • FR-A-2 147 519 (Outillage les Fils de J. LUISON) describes a dual-use toolbox whose lid can be used as a trowel and the bottom of the body to mix.
  • the object of the present invention is to solve the unsolved problems by the various models of existing accordion-type tool boxes, in particular in terms of vision and total accessibility to lockers, to increase the strength and rigidity of this product and, also, the storage volume.
  • the invention relates to an accordion type tool box composed of stacked lockers and a separable body bottom.
  • the upper and intermediate compartments are hinged together and on their lower double locker by means of rods. Deployment of lockers upper and intermediate is outward as for the cases traditional accordion.
  • This arrangement is obtained by forms on the lockers and only located in two corners of the tool receptacles, thus ensuring support on the lower compartment stops at the opening required during deployment accordion of these same lockers.
  • the locker, located below, is completely free of overlaps of the locker located above, hitherto existing on the usual cases, drawback which creates an obstacle to gripping the tools and, also, hides the contents of the locker below.
  • the existing boxes, accordion type, consist of articulated lockers around rods and has two handles coming together in part central in order to constitute a single carrying and / or gripping handle ; these provisions have the disadvantage of making efforts bear on deformable parts, which can lead to deterioration and deformation checkout rapids.
  • the body the subject of our patent, has a rigid central hollow partition and open in the lower part, integral with the lower double locker. This partition central hollow supports the grip handle.
  • the body the subject of our patent, has a large bottom of cash register which may or may not be associated with all of the lockers described above.
  • This bottom of the body allows the storage of bulky tools and tools, rarely allowed in existing accordion cases.
  • This bottom of body has a central handle which allows it to be used portable and dissociated from the rest of the box.
  • This handle in the shape of a handle, is housed when the bottom is associated body with the rest of the body, in the central hollow partition, ensuring thus self-centering of the same body bottom with respect to the upper part and this, both in the lateral and transverse directions.
  • the central hollow partition of the lower double compartments has, at each end, a guide pin whose mission is twofold: to serve as a guide and stop at the main grip handle of the retractable box and, on the other hand, serve as a hooking device to a strap allowing to carry the case on your shoulder; this strap being able to broach or unhook at can and can be stored in one of the lockers if not in use.
  • the main retractable handle in the rest position comes to rest on the top of the central hollow partition. This handle does not exceed the upper surface of the upper and intermediate articulated compartments set "body closed” position.
  • This arrangement has the advantage of creating a flat body top without roughness facilitating the possible storage of other elements on the same checkout.
  • Each upper compartment has a hollow shape on the side coming juxtapose with the central hollow partition.
  • This retractable handle is guided in translation in the hollow partition central so as to avoid any spillage of the body during transport manual.
  • Figure 1 shows, in perspective, the body in the closed position, the bottom of cash being associated.
  • Figure 2 shows, in perspective, the body in the open position, the bottom of cash being dissociated.
  • FIG. 3 represents, in perspective, the bottom of the body dissociated from the part superior.
  • Figure 4 shows, in cross section and in the open position, the body with associated underbody.
  • FIG. 5 shows, in longitudinal section, the associated bottom of the body.
  • Figure 6 shows in perspective the retractable handle (6) alone.
  • the box consists of two upper compartments (1) having a cover (5), two intermediate compartments (2), a lower double locker (3) and a body bottom (4); the whole being able be lifted by a retractable handle (6).
  • the lower double locker (3) has an open hollow center partition (7) in the lower part.
  • the upper compartments (1) and the intermediate compartments (2) come in closed box position, arrange on each side of the central hollow partition (7).
  • a bottom of the body (4) can be combined with the lower double locker (3) by means of latches (11) with hooks (12); each end of the body bottom (4) comprising a fastening device.
  • this bottom of the body (4) has a handle (13) in the form of a handle which, according to FIGS. 4 and 5, is housed in the partition central hollow (7) open at the bottom.
  • this bottom of the body (4) the handle (13) of which shape of trapezoidal profile handle is housed in the central hollow partition (7).
  • the trapezoidal shape allows centering of the bottom of the body (4) relative to the upper assembly consisting of compartments (1) (2) and (3).
  • This self-centering facilitates the positioning of one element in relation to the other without the operator having to search.
  • the entire body can be lifted by a retractable handle (6) as shown in Figure 1 not exceeding not from the upper plane of the body so as not to create any roughness or shape preventing the storage and stability of elements placed on it same upper face.
  • the upper compartments (1) have shapes recessed (16) which, in the closed position, face a recess (17) produced in the central hollow partition (7); these recesses, in the closed position, being juxtaposed, create a niche necessary for the passage of one hand to grab the retractable handle (6).
  • the hollow shapes (16) on the upper compartments (1) allow to pass your hand to pull the upper compartments (1) outwards and ensure the deployment of the accordion box, and on the other hand; authorize gripping the shape (22) of the cover (5); ; form necessary to the opening of the same cover.
  • these guide pins (18) integral with the central hollow partition (7) have, at their end, diabolos (20) on which can pin the elastic end loops (21) of the strap (19).
  • This strap (19) can then be used or not for carrying on the shoulder of this case.
