Abstract
Description
L'invention est du domaine des activités physiques et sportives, et elle a pour objet une prise artificielle pour l'apprentissage de l'escalade, pour jeunes enfants notamment.The invention is in the field of physical and sporting activities, and its purpose is artificial grip for learning to climb, for young children in particular.
On connaít des prises du genre, globalement constituées d'un bloc pourvu de moyens de fixation à une paroi, boulonnage notamment. Le bloc présente à sa périphérie des reliefs en creux pour le passage des doigts, afin d'offrir des moyens de prise à un grimpeur.We know catches of the kind, generally made up of a block provided with means for fixing to a wall, bolting in particular. The block presents on its periphery hollow reliefs for the passage of fingers, to provide grip for a climber.
L'apprentissage de l'escalade est répandu auprès des jeunes enfants pour le développement de leur motricité. On connaít plus particulièrement des prises dont le bloc présente conformation familière, telle qu'une voiture, pour être facilement repérable par les jeunes enfants.Learning to climb is popular with young children for the development of their motor skills. We know more particularly taken whose block has a familiar conformation, such as a car, to be easily seen by young people children.
Un problème à résoudre réside dans le manque durable d'attention des jeunes élèves pour une activité soutenue, et dans la lassitude induite par un agencement connu et familier des prises sur la paroi.A problem to be solved lies in the lasting lack of attention from young students for a sustained activity, and in the weariness induced by a known and familiar arrangement of the sockets on the wall.
Un premier but de l'invention est de proposer une prise artificielle pour l'apprentissage de l'escalade permettant de captiver et de maintenir l'attention des jeunes élèves, et permettant en outre de renouveler rapidement les parcours possibles sur une paroi.A first object of the invention is to offer an artificial grip for learning climbing to capture and maintain attention young students, and also allowing to renew quickly the possible routes on a wall.
Un deuxième but de l'invention est de proposer une prise artificielle permettant, à partir d'une activité de base fondée sur l'escalade, de développer d'autres types d'apprentissages.A second object of the invention is to offer an artificial grip allowing, from a basic activity based on climbing, to develop other types of learning.
Par le brevet FR 2 578 166, on connaít
une prise artificielle selon le préambule de la revendication 1.By
Selon l'invention, une prise artificielle pour l'apprentissage de l'escalade comprenant un bloc, d'une conformation quelconque, pourvu de moyens de fixation à une paroi, et comportant au mois un évidement débouchant sur l'une de ses faces accessibles postérieurement à la fixation du bloc à la paroi est caractérisée en ce qu'une plaquette amovible dotée de moyens de reconnaissance est logée à l'intérieur du dit évidement, la dite plaquette comprenant au moins un organe participant de moyens de liaison amovible au bloc, de telle sorte que le retrait de la plaquette hors du bloc soit facile, grâce aux dits moyens de liaison amovible, mais néanmoins volontaire, grâce à sa situation à l'intérieur du bloc, ce qui évite son retrait inopiné.According to the invention, an artificial grip for learning to climb including a block, of any shape, provided with fixing means to a wall, and comprising at least one recess leading to one of its accessible sides after the attachment of the block to the wall is characterized in that a removable plate with recognition means is housed inside of said recess, said plate comprising at least one member participating in removable connection means to the block, so that the removal of the wafer from the block is easy, thanks to said removable connection means, but nevertheless voluntary, thanks to its situation inside the block, which avoids its unexpected withdrawal.
Il résulte de ces dispositions, en premier lieu qu'une prise peut être reconnue, parmi une pluralité de prises équipant la paroi, par un élève au cour de sa progression le long de cette dernière, et finalement qu'un parcours à thème peut être préalablement déterminé par un éducateur, et en deuxième lieu que la plaquette peut être facilement mise en place et/ou retirée hors du logement, soit par l'élève lors de sa progression, soit par l'éducateur en vue de faire varier rapidement et facilement les parcours possibles le long de la paroi.It follows from these provisions, in first place that a catch can be recognized, among a plurality of sockets equipping the wall, by a student in the courtyard of its progression along the latter, and finally that a thematic route can be determined beforehand by an educator, and secondly that the brochure can be easily installed and / or removed from the housing, either by the student during his progression, either by the educator in to vary routes quickly and easily possible along the wall.
On comprendra par liaison amovible une liaison qui peut être volontairement et facilement rompue, et/ou inversement rétablie, et qui peut être soit manuelle, soit assistée par des moyens mécaniques, la dite rupture devant être néanmoins aisée.We will understand by removable link a bond which can be voluntarily and easily broken, and / or inversely restored, and which can either be manual, or assisted by mechanical means, the so-called rupture should nevertheless be easy.
Selon un premier exemple de réalisation des dits moyens de liaison amovible, ceux-ci sont des moyens, dits à liaison faible, c'est à dire autorisant un retrait manuel de la plaquette sous l'effet d'une légère traction ; par exemple les dits moyens de liaison faible sont constitués par des moyens du type magnétiques, ou encore du type bandes auto-agrippantes (par exemple "Velcro", marque déposée), c'est à dire mettant en oeuvre deux supports coopérants rapportés respectivement sur le bloc et la plaquette, l'un comportant des griffes et l'autre des boucles, ou encore du type par emboítement en contact légèrement étroit de la plaquette à l'intérieur du logement, le dit emboítement pouvant être accessoirement réalisé par l'intermédiaire d'un clip. According to a first example of realization of said removable connection means, these are means, called weak link, that is to say authorizing a manual removal of the insert under the effect of a slight traction; for example the so-called weak bonding means are constituted by magnetic type means, or type Velcro straps (eg "Velcro", brand filed), i.e. using two supports cooperants reported respectively on the block and the plaque, one with claws and the other with loops, or of the type by interlocking in contact slightly narrow of the plate inside the housing, said nesting can be incidentally achieved by through a clip.
Selon un autre exemple de réalisation des dits moyens de liaison amovible, ceux-ci sont des moyens, dits à liaison forte, c'est à dire n'autorisant un retrait de la plaquette qu'avec l'assistance d'un outil. Par exemple, les dits moyens de liaison forte sont constitués par de la colle thermofusible, ou encore sont du type par vissage. On comprendra que dans ce cas, et sans déroger à la règle générale de l'invention, la présence du logement dans le bloc visant à protéger la plaquette de heurts, qui peuvent induire son retrait inopiné, n'est plus obligatoire quoique toujours souhaitée.According to another exemplary embodiment said removable connection means, these are means, so-called strong bonds, i.e. not authorizing a withdrawal of the wafer only with the assistance of a tool. For example, the said strong bonding means consist of hot melt adhesive, or are of the screw type. We will understand that in this case, and without deviating from the rule general of the invention, the presence of the housing in the block to protect the wafer from impacts, which can induce its unexpected withdrawal is no longer compulsory, although always desired.
On comprendra que le choix entre les moyens alternatifs de liaison faible et/ou forte est dépendant du résultat secondaire recherché par l'utilisateur:
- Les moyens de liaison faible sont destinés à permettrent non seulement l'interchangeabilité régulière des plaquettes d'un ensemble de blocs équipant une paroi, mais encore un retrait des plaquettes par un élève au cours de sa progression, soit par exemple pour qu'il ramène un ensemble de plaquettes dont les moyens de reconnaissance ont un thème commun, tel qu'une couleur ou encore un sujet, fleur par exemple ou nombre, soit encore pour occuper temporairement une main de l'élève en vue de le familiariser à une telle situation.
- Les moyens de liaison forte sont destinés à permettre l'interchangeabilité régulière des plaquettes d'un ensemble de blocs équipant une paroi, sans pour autant autoriser leur retrait par les élèves.
- The weak connection means are intended to allow not only the regular interchangeability of the plates of a set of blocks equipping a wall, but also a withdrawal of the plates by a pupil during his progress, that is for example so that he brings back a set of plates whose means of recognition have a common theme, such as a color or a subject, flower for example or number, or even to temporarily occupy a hand of the pupil in order to familiarize him with such a situation .
- The strong connection means are intended to allow regular interchangeability of the plates of a set of blocks equipping a wall, without allowing their removal by the students.
De préférence, le bloc comporte au moins une échancrure en bordure du logement, de telle sorte que la préhension et le retrait de la plaquette en soient facilités, grâce à la possibilité de glisser un ongle et/ou un doigt dans la dite échancrure.Preferably, the block comprises at minus a notch at the edge of the housing, so gripping and removing the insert facilities, thanks to the possibility of dragging a nail and / or a finger in the said notch.
Selon des exemples non limitatifs de différentes formes de réalisation des dits moyens de reconnaissance, ceux-ci sont des moyens du groupe de ceux comprenant la couleur de la plaquette, une image et/ou un symbole reproduit sur et/ou adjoint à la plaquette. Dans tous les cas, il est souhaitable que la plaquette soit d'une même forme pour permettre l'interchangeabilité entre une pluralité de plaquettes comportant des moyens de reconnaissance respectifs.According to nonlimiting examples of different embodiments of said means of recognition, these are means of the group of those including the color of the plate, an image and / or a symbol reproduced on and / or attached to the plate. In all the cases, it is desirable that the plate is of the same shape to allow interchangeability between a plurality of wafers comprising recognition means respective.
La présente invention sera mieux
comprise, et des détails en relevant apparaítront, à la
description qui va en être faite de formes préférées de
réalisation, en relation avec les figures de la planche
annexée, dans laquelle :
Sur les figures, une prise
artificielle pour l'apprentissage de l'escalade est du genre
comprenant un bloc 2 destiné à être rapporté sur une paroi,
par boulonnage 4 notamment.In the figures, a socket
artificial climbing learning is like
comprising a
La démarche inventive a consisté à pourvoir le dit bloc d'un organe amovible pour son identification et sa reconnaissance, le dit organe comportant des moyens de liaison amovible permettant son retrait du bloc, et/ou inversement sa mise en place sur le bloc, volontairement par les élèves et/ou l'éducateur, en vue de motiver les élèves et/ou d'utiliser l'escalade comme un outil pédagogique par association d'images pour l'enseignement d'autres disciplines.The inventive step consisted in provide said block with a removable member for its identification and its recognition, the said organ comprising removable connection means allowing its removal from the block, and / or vice versa its placement on the block, voluntarily by the pupils and / or the educator, with a view to motivate students and / or use climbing as a tool educational by association of images for teaching other disciplines.
Selon les exemples de réalisation de
l'invention représentés sur les figures, un évidement (6) est
ménagé dans le bloc pour loger une plaquette 8,10,12 ou
encore 18 sur laquelle apparaít une figurine 20, par exemple
des fleurs tel que représenté sur les exemples illustrés. According to the exemplary embodiments of
the invention shown in the figures, a recess (6) is
formed in the block to accommodate a
Les plaquettes 8,10,12 et 18 sont
amovibles pour pouvoir être retirées, soit par un élève lors
de sa progression sur la paroi, soit en vue d'interchanger
les images 12 rapportées sur les différentes prises équipant
une paroi et/ou adjoindre aux prises de nouvelles images 12.
Selon l'exemple de réalisation de
l'invention représenté sur les figures 1 et 2, la plaquette
est constituée de deux disques 8 et 10, dits respectivement
arrière 8 et avant 10, superposés et fixés l'un à l'autre.
Entre les disques 8 et 10 est intercalée une image 12 formant
les dits moyens de reconnaissance, le disque avant 10 au
moins étant transparent ; selon une forme avantageuse de
réalisation, les disques 8 et 10 sont élaborés en matière
synthétique transparente, du groupe des polyméthacrylates
notamment. Les moyens de fixation du bloc 2 à la paroi étant
du type courant par boulonnage 4, les moyens de liaison de la
plaquette 8,10,12 au bloc 2 sont avantageusement constitués
par un aimant 14 rapporté sur la face arrière du disque
arrière 8, le dit aimant 14 coopérant avec la tête du boulon
de fixation 4 du bloc 2 à la paroi.According to the embodiment of
the invention shown in Figures 1 and 2, the wafer
consists of two
On notera que les moyens de reconnaissance peuvent être aussi formés, non seulement par d'autres moyens de reconnaissance visuelle, tel qu'à partir d'une coloration de la plaquette ou encore par une figurine rapportée, par collage notamment, ou encore par reproduction ou par gravure d'une image sur la plaquette, mais encore par des moyens de reconnaissance faisant appel à d'autres sens de la perception humaine, tel que des moyens sonores ou des moyens de reconnaissance par le toucher.Note that the means of recognition can also be trained not only by other means of visual recognition, such as from a coloring of the plate or by a figurine reported, in particular by collage, or even by reproduction or by engraving an image on the brochure, but also by means of recognition using other senses of human perception, such as sound or means of recognition by touch.
Sur l'exemple de réalisation illustré
sur la fig.3, on remarquera que les moyens de reconnaissance
peuvent être constitués par une figure 20 d'identification
d'une bloc 2 spécifique, ce dernier incorporant une copie 26
du même symbole.On the illustrated embodiment
in fig. 3, it will be noted that the means of recognition
may consist of an identification figure 20
of a
Sur ce même exemple de réalisation
illsutré sur la fig.3, une prise d'escalade selon une autre
forme de réalisation de l'invention comprend une plaquette
formée d'un d'une feuille souple 18 pourvue des dits moyens
de reconnaissance 20 sur sa face, dite avant, les dits moyens
de reconnaissance 20 étant ménagés par sérigraphie tel que
représenté sur la figure, ou encore étant rapportés au moyen
d'un film adhésif, et étant recouverts d'un revêtement 24 de
résine transparente de protection, de polyuréthane notamment.On this same example of realization
illustrated in fig. 3, a climbing hold according to another
embodiment of the invention comprises a plate
formed of a
Sur ces mêmes figures, les moyens de
liaison de la plaquette au bloc sont avantageusement
constitués par la dite feuille 18 elle-même participant de la
plaquette, celle-ci 18 étant une feuille magnétique, et par
une platine de métal 22 maintenue au fond de l'évidement 6,
par collage ou par encastrement dans ce dernier 6 par
exemple.In these same figures, the means of
connection of the wafer to the block are advantageously
constituted by the said
On notera que grâce à ces dernières
dispositions, la position du débouché de l'évidement 6 sur la
face avant du bloc peut être quelconque, dans la mesure où
elle n'est plus assujettie à celle des moyens 4 de fixation
du bloc 2 sur la paroi, à la différence de la prise illustrée
sur les fig.1 et 2.Note that thanks to these
provisions, the position of the opening of the
On remarquera enfin sur l'ensemble
des figures la présence souhaitée d'un couple d'échancrures,
telles que 16, facilitant la préhension et le retrait de la
plaquette 8,10,12.We will finally notice on the whole
of the figures the desired presence of a couple of notches,
such as 16, making it easier to grip and remove the
