Description

Le domaine technique de l'invention est celui des dispositifs de fixation d'un caisson sur une structure, et en particulier des dispositifs permettant de fixer un élément de blindage sur une structure telle un véhicule.The technical field of the invention is that of devices for fixing a box to a structure, and in particular devices making it possible to fix a shielding element on a structure such as a vehicle.

On réalise aujourd'hui de plus en plus les blindages sous forme de caissons ou briques élémentaires qui sont fixés d'une façon démontable sur la structure à protéger.Today, shields are increasingly produced in the form of elementary boxes or bricks which are fixed in a removable manner on the structure to be protected.

Une telle disposition permet de remplacer aisément les éléments de blindages qui sont endommagés par un impact de projectile. Ceci est rendu d'autant plus nécessaire par la définition actuelle de blindages réactifs, qui sont des blindages 'consommables' comportant une feuille d'explosif initiée par l'impact d'un projectile.Such an arrangement makes it easy to replace the shielding elements which are damaged by a projectile impact. This is made all the more necessary by the current definition of reactive armor, which is 'consumable' armor comprising an explosive sheet initiated by the impact of a projectile.

L'emploi de blindages démontables permet égaiement de concevoir des véhicules plus légers, donc plus faciles à transporter par voie aérienne sur un théâtre d'opérations.The use of removable shields also makes it possible to design lighter vehicles, therefore easier to transport by air over a theater of operations.

Les éléments de blindage sont alors transportés indépendamment du véhicule et l'assemblage est effectué après le transport.The shielding elements are then transported independently of the vehicle and assembly is carried out after transport.

On connaît par exemple par le brevet US4741244 un blindage réactif qui a la forme d'une boîte portant des pattes de fixation.We know for example from patent US4741244 a reactive shield which has the form of a box carrying fixing lugs.

Ces pattes permettent de lier la boîte à la structure du véhicule au moyen de vis.These lugs allow the box to be linked to the vehicle structure by means of screws.

Ces pattes de fixation sont facilement déformables au cours des phases de manutention, ce qui rend plus difficile la fixation ultérieure du blindage sur le véhicule.These fixing lugs are easily deformable during the handling phases, which makes it more difficult to subsequently attach the shielding to the vehicle.

Or il est essentiel que les dispositifs de fixation permettent une mise en place rapide et facile du blindage cela afin d'assurer une remise rapide du véhicule en conditions opérationnelles.However, it is essential that the fastening devices allow rapid and easy fitting of the shielding in order to ensure rapid return of the vehicle to operational conditions.

De plus, on réalise aujourd'hui des caissons de blindages de masse relativement élevée (de l'ordre de 20 à 30 kg). Ces caissons sont difficiles à manipuler, pourtant leur mise en place sur le véhicule doit être rapide et facile.In addition, shielding boxes of relatively high mass (of the order of 20 to 30 kg) are produced today. These boxes are difficult to handle, yet their installation on the vehicle must be quick and easy.

C'est le but de l'invention que de proposer un dispositif de fixation de caisson sur une structure qui ne présente pas de tels inconvénients.It is the object of the invention to propose a device for fixing the box to a structure which does not have such drawbacks.

Ainsi l'invention propose un dispositif de fixation assurant un positionnement rapide et fiable du caisson sur la structure et facilitant également la solidarisation de ces éléments.Thus, the invention provides a fixing device ensuring rapid and reliable positioning of the box on the structure and also facilitating the joining of these elements.

L'invention a également pour objet de proposer un caisson de blindage doté de moyens permettant sa fixation sur une structure.The object of the invention is also to propose a shielding box provided with means enabling it to be fixed to a structure.

Ainsi l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de fixation d'un caisson, notamment de blindage, sur une structure, dispositif caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend d'une part un support inférieur présentant au moins un plot de centrage destiné à coopérer avec un logement correspondant aménagé sur une face inférieure du caisson, et d'autre part au moins une patte de fixation supérieure destinée à recevoir un moyen de solidarisation d'avec le caisson.Thus the subject of the invention is a device for fixing a box, in particular a shielding, to a structure, device characterized in that it comprises on the one hand a lower support having at least one centering stud intended to cooperate with a corresponding housing arranged on a lower face of the box, and on the other hand at least one upper fixing lug intended to receive a means of securing with the box.

Avantageusement, la ou les pattes de fixation supérieures pourront porter une surface de butée destinée à assurer un positionnement du caisson par rapport à la patte.Advantageously, the upper fixing lug (s) may carry an abutment surface intended to ensure positioning of the box relative to the lug.

Les moyens de solidarisation pourront comprendre au moins une vis venant dans un trou de la patte supérieure et destinée à coopérer avec une douille taraudée solidaire d'une face supérieure du caisson.The securing means may comprise at least one screw coming into a hole in the upper tab and intended to cooperate with a threaded socket secured to an upper face of the box.

La ou les pattes de fixation supérieures pourront être fixées à la structure par au moins une vis qui se loge dans une lumière aménagée sur la patte.The upper fixing lug (s) may be fixed to the structure by at least one screw which is housed in a slot provided on the lug.

L'invention a également pour objet un caisson, notamment de blindage, destiné à être fixé à une structure par un dispositif de fixation, caisson caractérisé en ce qu'il présente au moins un logement de centrage aménagé au niveau d'une face inférieure et destiné à coopérer avec un plot de centrage porté par le dispositif de fixation.The invention also relates to a box, in particular for shielding, intended to be fixed to a structure by a fixing device, box characterized in that it has at least one centering housing arranged at a lower face and intended to cooperate with a centering stud carried by the fixing device.

Le ou les logements de centrage pourront être formés par un ou plusieurs inserts fixés sur la face inférieure du caisson.The centering housing (s) may be formed by one or more inserts fixed to the underside of the box.

Le caisson pourra comporter au moins une douille taraudée solidaire d'une face supérieure et destinée à coopérer avec une vis du dispositif de fixation.The box may include at least one threaded socket integral with an upper face and intended to cooperate with a screw of the fixing device.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre d'un mode particulier de réalisation, description faite en référence aux dessins annexés et dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente en perspective une paroi de structure portant un dispositif de fixation selon l'invention,
  • la figure 2 montre en coupe transversale un caisson selon l'invention fixé à la structure selon l'invention.
The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows of a particular embodiment, description made with reference to the accompanying drawings and in which:
  • FIG. 1 shows in perspective a structural wall carrying a fixing device according to the invention,
  • Figure 2 shows in cross section a box according to the invention fixed to the structure according to the invention.

En se reportant à la figure 1, un dispositif de fixation 1 selon l'invention est représenté lié à une paroi 2 d'une structure, par exemple d'un véhicule blindé.Referring to Figure 1, a fastening device 1 according to the invention is shown linked to a wall 2 of a structure, for example of an armored vehicle.

Ce dispositif comprend un support inférieur 3 qui a la forme d'une équerre et qui est fixé à la paroi 2, par exemple par des vis 21 (cette équerre pourrait être fixée par soudure).This device comprises a lower support 3 which has the shape of a square and which is fixed to the wall 2, for example by screws 21 (this square could be fixed by welding).

Ce support inférieur porte un plot de centrage 4 qui a la forme d'un cylindre portant un chanfrein d'extrémité 5.This lower support carries a centering stud 4 which has the shape of a cylinder carrying an end chamfer 5.

Le plot 4 est fixé par des vis 6 (Cf figure 2) sur le support inférieur 3 (en variante il pourrait être soudé au support).The stud 4 is fixed by screws 6 (see Figure 2) on the lower support 3 (alternatively it could be welded to the support).

Le dispositif de fixation comprend également une patte de fixation supérieure 7, qui est sensiblement parallèle au support inférieur et qui est fixée à la paroi 2 par des vis 22, positionnées dans des lumières 23 aménagées sur la patte 7.The fixing device also comprises an upper fixing tab 7, which is substantially parallel to the lower support and which is fixed to the wall 2 by screws 22, positioned in slots 23 arranged on the tab 7.

La patte supérieure 7 a la forme d'une équerre et elle porte deux perçages 8 d'axes sensiblement parallèles à la paroi 2.The upper tab 7 has the shape of a square and it carries two bores 8 with axes substantially parallel to the wall 2.

Elle présente également au niveau d'une face inférieure un repli 9 dont la fonction sera précisée ci après.It also has at a lower face a fold 9 whose function will be explained below.

En se reportant à la figure 2, le dispositif de fixation 1 est destiné à permettre la solidarisation d'un caisson 10 (par exemple un blindage réactif) sur une paroi 2 de la structure.Referring to Figure 2, the fixing device 1 is intended to allow the attachment of a box 10 (for example a reactive shield) on a wall 2 of the structure.

Le caisson 10 comporte une enveloppe 11 en tôle d'acier fermée par exemple au niveau d'une face arrière 12 par un couvercle. Il contient des éléments de protection passifs et/ou actifs et/ou réactifs qui ne sont pas représentés ici, car ils ne font pas partie de la présente invention.The box 10 comprises a casing 11 made of sheet steel closed for example at a rear face 12 by a cover. It contains passive and / or active and / or reactive protective elements which are not shown here, because they are not part of the present invention.

D'une façon connue ces éléments de protection pourront comprendre plusieurs plaques d'acier ou de céramique ainsi que des sandwiches associant plaques d'acier et feuilles d'explosif. On pourra par exemple se reporter aux brevets US4741244 et US5070764 qui décrivent de tels blindages.In a known manner, these protective elements may include several steel or ceramic plates as well as sandwiches combining steel plates and sheets of explosive. We can for example refer to patents US4741244 and US5070764 which describe such shields.

L'enveloppe 11 porte au niveau d'une face inférieure 13 au moins un logement de centrage 14 qui est destiné à coopérer avec le plot de centrage 4.The envelope 11 carries at the level of a lower face 13 at least one centering housing 14 which is intended to cooperate with the centering stud 4.

Le logement de centrage 14 est formé par un insert cylindrique 15 embouti, réalisé en acier inoxydable et qui est soudé sur la face inférieure 13 du caisson. Le choix de l'acier inoxydable permet d'améliorer la tenue de l'insert, notamment au frottement contre le support inférieur 3.The centering housing 14 is formed by a stamped cylindrical insert 15, made of stainless steel and which is welded to the underside 13 of the box. The choice of stainless steel improves the behavior of the insert, in particular against friction against the lower support 3.

L'enveloppe 11 porte également au niveau d'une face supérieure 16 deux douilles taraudées 17, soudées à l'enveloppe, et qui sont destinées à recevoir des vis de fixation 18, mises en place au travers des trous 8 de la patte de fixation supérieure 7. Les douilles 17 sont réalisées en acier inoxydable afin d'améliorer leur tenue, notamment au frottement contre la patte 7.The envelope 11 also carries at the level of an upper face 16 two threaded sockets 17, welded to the envelope, and which are intended to receive fixing screws 18, put in place through the holes 8 of the fixing lug upper 7. The sockets 17 are made of stainless steel in order to improve their resistance, in particular to friction against the tab 7.

La mise en place et la fixation du caisson 10 sur la paroi 2 s'effectuent de la façon suivante.The establishment and fixing of the box 10 on the wall 2 is carried out as follows.

La patte supérieure 7 n'est pas vissée à la paroi 2, ou bien elle est maintenue par les vis 22 qui ne sont pas serrées.The upper tab 7 is not screwed to the wall 2, or else it is held by the screws 22 which are not tight.

Le caisson 10 est approché de la paroi et on positionne sa face inférieure 13 sur le support inférieur 3. Le plot 4 est introduit dans l'insert de centrage 15. Le chanfrein 5 facilite cette mise en place.The box 10 is approached the wall and its lower face 13 is positioned on the lower support 3. The stud 4 is introduced into the centering insert 15. The chamfer 5 facilitates this positioning.

La présence des lumières 23 permet de déplacer la patte supérieure 7 ce qui autorise le basculement du caisson 10 suivant la flèche F de façon à le mettre en appui sur le support inférieur 3 sans interférence mécanique avec la patte supérieure 7.The presence of the lights 23 makes it possible to move the upper tab 7 which authorizes the tilting of the box 10 according to the arrow F so as to put it in abutment on the lower support 3 without mechanical interference with the upper tab 7.

La face arrière 12 du caisson vient en butée contre le repli 9 qui permet d'obtenir rapidement un bon positionnement angulaire du caisson autour de l'axe 20 du plot 4. Une fois le caisson positionné sur le plot 4 et en appui sur la butée 9, on serre les vis de fixation 22 de la patte supérieure.The rear face 12 of the box comes into abutment against the fold back 9 which allows to quickly obtain a good angular positioning of the box around the axis 20 of the stud 4. Once the box positioned on the stud 4 and bearing on the stop 9, the fixing screws 22 of the upper tab are tightened.

Du fait de l'appui du caisson 10 sur la butée 9 les douilles 17 se trouvent en regard des perçages 8. La mise en place des vis 18 est donc immédiate.Due to the support of the box 10 on the stop 9 the sockets 17 are located opposite the holes 8. The installation of the screws 18 is therefore immediate.

Un premier avantage du dispositif selon l'invention est que le personnel qui fixe le caisson n'a pas à supporter la masse de celui ci lors de la fixation. En effet, c'est le support inférieur 3 qui assure le soutien du caisson.A first advantage of the device according to the invention is that the personnel who fixes the box does not have to support the mass of the latter during fixing. Indeed, it is the lower support 3 which provides support for the box.

Le support inférieur 3 permet également d'obtenir le bon positionnement du caisson par rapport à la paroi 2, ce qui permet la fixation rapide de celui-ci.The lower support 3 also makes it possible to obtain the correct positioning of the box relative to the wall 2, which allows rapid fixing of the latter.

Il soutient mécaniquement le caisson par rappport au véhicule ce qui permet d'utiliser comme moyen de verrouillage des vis 18 de dimensions réduites.It mechanically supports the box in relation to the vehicle, which makes it possible to use, as locking means, screws 18 of reduced dimensions.

Un autre avantage du dispositif de fixation selon l'invention est que l'axe 20 du plot 4 ainsi que l'axe 19 des vis 18 et des douilles 17 sont plus proches du centre de gravité du caisson que ne le sont les systèmes de fixation connus (constitués par des vis de fixation généralement portées par la face arrière 12).Another advantage of the fixing device according to the invention is that the axis 20 of the stud 4 as well as the axis 19 of the screws 18 and of the sockets 17 are closer to the center of gravity of the box than are the fixing systems known (constituted by fixing screws generally carried by the rear face 12).

Il en résulte une contrainte de cisaillement moindre pour l'enveloppe du caisson qui peut donc être réalisée en tôle mince (de l'ordre du millimètre). La masse du caisson se trouve donc réduite.This results in a lower shear stress for the casing envelope which can therefore be made of thin sheet metal (of the order of a millimeter). The mass of the box is therefore reduced.

Le caisson selon l'invention ne porte aucune patte de fixation. Son encombrement s'en trouve réduit et son stockage amélioré. Les éléments de fixation (insert 15 et douilles 17) sont en creux dans le corps du caisson, leur vulnérabilité lors des phases de manipulation ou stockage est donc réduite.The box according to the invention does not carry any fixing lug. Its size is reduced and its storage improved. The fastening elements (insert 15 and sockets 17) are hollow in the body of the box, their vulnerability during handling or storage phases is therefore reduced.

Les fixations par vis de la patte de fixation 7 et du support inférieur 3 permettent de remplacer facilement ces éléments s'ils se trouvent détériorés.The screw fixings of the fixing lug 7 and of the lower support 3 allow these elements to be easily replaced if they are damaged.

Diverses variantes sont possibles sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Various variants are possible without departing from the scope of the invention.

Ainsi il est possible de prévoir un nombre différent de plots 4 / inserts 15 et de douilles 17, ou de diviser la patte supérieure 7 en plusieurs pattes distinctes (par exemple deux pattes).Thus it is possible to provide a different number of pads 4 / inserts 15 and sockets 17, or to divide the upper tab 7 into several separate tabs (by example two legs).

Il est également possible de choisir des matériaux différents pour réaliser insert 15 et douilles 17.It is also possible to choose different materials to make insert 15 and sockets 17.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet la fixation de caissons de blindage passifs ou réactifs sur un véhicule.The device according to the invention allows the fixing of passive or reactive shielding boxes on a vehicle.

Il peut également permettre une telle fixaticn sur une structure fixe, telle un bâtiment ou un hangar.It can also allow such a fixaticn on a fixed structure, such as a building or a hangar.

Il permet enfin la fixation de caissons ayant une finalité toute autre que la surprotection, par exemple des caisses de rangement sur un véhicule ou sur les murs d'un atelier ou d'un logement.Finally, it allows the fixing of boxes having a purpose other than overprotection, for example storage boxes on a vehicle or on the walls of a workshop or accommodation.
