Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device forming a foot for stake or mast, in particular for an arbor or sign.
  • the arbor or panel legs are generally formed by metal tubes or wooden masts of a diameter between 10 and 40 mm. These feet can be sunk into the ground to immobilize the structure they support. However, it is not always possible to press these feet in the ground, for example when the ground in question is a terrace, a paved road or a lawn that it should not be damaged.
  • plinths concrete which are intended to receive the lower end of the foot of the panel.
  • bases are heavy, so impractical to move, and do not allow to receive feet or masts that are not exactly vertical. But he happens, in the case of an arbor, but also for panels comprising several feet forming a structure in pyramid shape, that the stakes to be supported are inclined with respect to the vertical, so there is no device adapted to constitute the foot.
  • the stakes of devices such as arbors or billboards have diameters variables, even sections of variable, circular shape, oval or polygonal, which may prevent the use of certain known bases which are only compatible with stakes with circular section of a determined diameter.
  • arbor or panel stakes are sometimes fitted with a plate significantly wider than their diameter and intended to constitute their bearing surface on the ground. Such a plate prevents the insertion of these stakes into bases fitted with conventional holes for receiving stakes.
  • the tones often include a canvas which extends to the immediate vicinity of the lower end stake.
  • a canvas can be damaged during the insertion of the stake into a conventional concrete base.
  • the invention relates to a device forming foot for stake or mast, in particular for feet of arbor or panel, characterized in that it comprises two hollow envelopes of complementary shapes intended to be assembled by defining between them a well for receiving the lower end of said stake or mast, said envelopes being able to deform in their zone forming said well, so that the apparent diameter of said well is adapted the diameter of said stake or mast.
  • the well defined between the two envelopes are of variable dimensions, while the envelopes hollow can have a geometry giving the whole a satisfactory aesthetic appearance, each envelope being able to be easily transportable, possibly after being emptied of ballast material.
  • the invention makes it possible to accommodate without difficulty a stake equipped with a plate or a canvas extending to its lower end.
  • the well present, in horizontal section in its central area, an edge with cusps at which it is likely to deform. These cusps constitute preferred deformation zones of the well, this which allows the adaptation of its diameter to that of the mast.
  • the edge has, between two cusps, at least a curved part of support the stake or mast.
  • These curved parts have the function of decrease the apparent diameter of the well, allowing its adaptation to stakes or masts of various diameters.
  • the curved support part is formed by a stud formed on the wall from the well and oriented towards the interior thereof.
  • the well is diverging upwards and downwards from its zone central. This allows the well to receive a stake or mast inclined.
  • the divergent character of the well makes it possible to predict the jamming of the foot only in the central area of the well.
  • the device has a generally frustoconical shape, the part of larger diameter being intended to rest on the ground.
  • This aspect of the invention gives the device a good stability, especially if partially filled ballast material.
  • the device comprises means for assembling the two envelopes arranged on either side of the well. These assembly means allow the forces on both sides of the well to be absorbed transmitted by the stake or mast which would tend to spread the envelopes from each other.
  • the assembly means comprise at least one screw capable of cooperate with a thread formed by each envelope in the bulkhead of a blind hole arranged opposite an orifice of the other envelope intended to receive the rod of the screw.
  • the envelopes are identical and each provided with a filling of ballast material.
  • the fact that the envelopes are identical improves production costs of the device of the invention, because a single envelope reference must be created and generated for the manufacture of the device.
  • the presence of the filling orifice allows ballast these envelopes, possibly after their installation, so the stability of the whole device in is increased.
  • the envelopes are formed by blowing plastic. This makes it possible to obtain, at a relatively low cost, parts of satisfactory appearance and effectively filling the function sought.
  • the device 1 represented in FIG. 1 is intended for be mounted at the lower end of a stake 2 in the form of metal tube, such as a tent pole, constituting a foot of an arbor.
  • Device 1 includes two identical hollow envelopes 3 and 4, obtained by blowing a plastic material such as, in particular, polyethylene or polypropylene.
  • envelopes can also be made by injection molding of a thermoplastic material possibly including an ultrasonic welding line.
  • the envelopes 3 and 4 are each provided with a filling orifice, respectively referenced 3a and 4a, intended to be closed by a cover, respectively referenced 13 and 14.
  • the envelopes 3 and 4 may be partially or completely filled with a material ballasting, such as sand or water, through holes 3 a and 4 a .
  • the envelopes 3 and 4 can also be emptied through these orifices.
  • the casings 3 and 4 are intended to be assembled by means of screws 23 and 24 passing through an orifice 3b or 4b of the casing 3 or 4 corresponding and penetrating into a blind hole 3 c or 4 c from the other envelope.
  • the bulkhead of the blind holes 3 c and 4 c is shaped into threads 3 d or 4 d intended to cooperate with the screws 23 and 24.
  • the screws then have a captive character which is advantageous.
  • a well 25 is defined between the envelopes 3 and 4 for the reception of the stake 2.
  • the stake 2 is equipped with a plate 12 which forms its bearing surface on the ground S.
  • the plate 12 is substantially wider than well 25. It is received in a housing 44 provided in the lower part of the envelope 4.
  • a housing equivalent, not shown, is provided in envelope 3.
  • Envelopes 3 and 4 can be assembled around the stake 2, receiving plate 12 in their housings respective, without disassembly of the plate 12 relative to the stake 2.
  • Well 25 diverges upwards and downwards at from a central area 26 of smaller diameter, so that stake 2 could be tilted in well 25.
  • the well 25 comprises two studs 33 and 34, respectively formed on the envelopes 3 and 4 and oriented towards the interior of the well, that is to say in the direction of a generally vertical axis XX '.
  • the two studs 33 and 34 constitute curved support parts on the stake 2.
  • the apparent diameter of the well 25 is defined by the distance d normally separating the studs 33 and 34 and which is visible in FIG. 2.
  • the distance d is of the order of 20 mm.
  • the diameter of the stake 2 is substantially equal to the apparent diameter d of the well 25.
  • the edge of the well 25 has cusps 35, that is to say points in which this edge forms an edge capable of being deformed. Indeed, when a mast 2 'of larger diameter to the distance d is introduced into the well 25, the pads 33 and 34 are spaced outwardly from the well 25, so that the cusps 35 are pushed in the direction of the arrows F in FIG. 4. This deformation of the edge of the well 25 makes it possible to adapt the apparent diameter, that is to say the distance separating the studs 33 and 34 from the well 25, to the actual diameter of the 2 'mast.
  • this deformation is reversible, that is to say ceases when the stake 2 ', with a diameter greater than the distance d , is extracted from the well 25.
  • the studs 33 and 34 could be replaced by ribs generally vertical curves, formed over part of the height of well 25 and extending in the direction of axis XX ' to reduce the apparent diameter of the well.
  • These ribs could have, in horizontal section, a geometry similar to that of pads 33 and 34 in FIG. 2, or even a different geometry. Vertical lines of dots cusp would then be created in the connection area of these ribs with the rest of the surface of the well.
