Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un système manuel pour allonger ou raccourcir le nez d'une marionette.The present invention relates to a system manual to lengthen or shorten the nose of a puppet.
Il est connu que la marionette appelée Pinocchio
est communément représentée avec un long nez lequel
veut représenter, selon la fantaisie de l'autuer,
la matérialisation du mensonge au moment où il est
prononcé.
L'allongement du nez, lié aux mensonges est
l'aspect que en premier est associé au personnage
de Pinocchio et cette caractéristique a rendu la
marionette connue et aimée du grand public du
monde.It is known that the puppet called Pinocchio is commonly represented with a long nose which wants to represent, according to the fantasy of the author, the materialization of the lie when it is pronounced.
The lengthening of the nose, linked to lies is the aspect that is first associated with the character of Pinocchio and this characteristic has made the puppet known and loved by the general public of the world.
D'un autre côté, jusqu'à présent, toutes les
marionettes qui représentent Pinocchio, sont
réalisées avec un nez long et pointu, mais fixe.
Mais ce-ci n'est pas adhérent correctement et
totalement au personnage de Pinocchio parce qu'il
est certain que Pinocchio ne disait pas toujour des
mensonges.
Seulement quelques models en commerce sont pourvus
de deux nez, un long et un court, applicables
séparément à vis dans un siége prédisposé.
Mais même ainsi, en faisant défaut l'effet
dinamique du nez, manque toute surprise amusante
qui peut susciter un nez qui se rallonge et qui se
raccourci à plaisir.On the other hand, so far, all the puppets that represent Pinocchio, are made with a long and pointed nose, but fixed. But this one is not correctly and totally adherent to the character of Pinocchio because it is certain that Pinocchio did not always tell lies.
Only a few commercial models have two noses, one long and one short, which can be applied separately in a predisposed seat.
But even so, lacking the dinamic effect of the nose, lacks any amusing surprise that can spark a nose that lengthens and shortens with pleasure.
La présente invention à pour but d'èliminer lesdits inconvénients.The present invention aims to eliminate said disadvantages.
A ce résultat on est parvenus conformément à
l'invention en adoptant un système ayant les
caractéristiques de la revendication 1. D'autres
caractéristiques sont prévues dans le
revendications 2 - 8.This was achieved in accordance with
the invention by adopting a system having the

Réduit à sa structure essentielle et en reference
aux figures 1 et 2 des dessins annexés le système
pour allonger et raccourcir le nez d'une marionette
du type "Pinocchio" comprend une tête en deux
pièces (3,3') avec une cavité (30) ouverte
postérieurement vers l'extérieur, et un long nez
(4) indipéndent de la tête, mais passant guidé dans
une fente (34) correspondante de celle-ci pour
qu'on puisse l'occulter en partie dans ladite
cavité (30).
Ledit nez (4) est pourvu d'une cavité axiale (40)
ouverte en correspondance de sa base et destinée à
investir une tige (5) coaxiale à la fente (34)
passant dans ladite cavité (30) de la tête et fixée
par la base dans la partie postérieure de la tête.
Intérieurement à la cavité (30) de la tête,
transversalement à ladite tige (5) , et
supérieurement à celle-ci, un petit arbre (2)
horizontal est pourvu, fixé à la tête libre
d'osciller sur soi-même; audit petit arbre (2) un
levier (1) est solidaire, un bras (11) duquel a
l'extrémité libre réliée à la base du nez (4) au
moyen d'un élément en forme d'anneau (6), l'autre
bras (10) a l'extrémité libre qui sort de la cavité
(30) de la partie postérieure de la tête en guise
de poignée pour en permettre l'actionnement manuel:
en mouvementant ledit bras (10) vers le haut,
respectivement vers le bas, on provoque la
rétraction, respectivement le rallongement du nez. Reduced to its essential structure and with reference to Figures 1 and 2 of the accompanying drawings, the system for lengthening and shortening the nose of a puppet of the "Pinocchio" type comprises a two-piece head (3.3 ') with a cavity (30 ) open posteriorly towards the outside, and a long nose (4) independent of the head, but passing guided in a slot (34) corresponding to the latter so that it can be partly obscured in said cavity (30) .
Said nose (4) is provided with an axial cavity (40) open in correspondence with its base and intended to invest a rod (5) coaxial with the slot (34) passing through said cavity (30) of the head and fixed by the base in the posterior part of the head. Inside the cavity (30) of the head, transversely to said rod (5), and above this, a small horizontal shaft (2) is provided, fixed to the head free to oscillate on itself; to said small shaft (2) a lever (1) is integral, an arm (11) of which the free end connected to the base of the nose (4) by means of a ring-shaped element (6), l 'other arm (10) at the free end which leaves the cavity (30) of the rear part of the head as a handle to allow manual actuation: by moving said arm (10) upwards, respectively downwards, the retraction is caused, respectively the lengthening of the nose.
La course angulaire dudit bras (10) du levier (1) est opportunement prédéterminée pour obtenir une course correspondante de rallongement et raccourcissenment de la partie de nez qui dépasse de la tête et ce-ci est obtenu avec un ampleur convenable de l'ouverture de la cavité (30) dans la partie postérieure de la tête (3,3').The angular travel of said arm (10) of the lever (1) is expediently predetermined to obtain a corresponding extension stroke and shortening of the protruding part of the nose of the head and this is obtained with a magnitude suitable for opening the cavity (30) in the posterior part of the head (3.3 ').
Pour permettre un guidage correct du nez pendant ses excursions, il est prévu que le nez, au moin pour une longueur correspondante à son excursion maximale, ait une forme cylindrique et que ladite fente (34) ait une forme et les dimensions correspondantes pour un couplage mobile, mais precis.To allow correct guidance of the nose during excursions, it is expected that the nose, at least for a length corresponding to its excursion maximum, has a cylindrical shape and that said slot (34) has a shape and dimensions corresponding for mobile coupling, but specific.
En outre pour permettre une réalisation facile de la cavité (30) et un montage rapide des éléments contenus à l'intérieur de la cavité la tête est opportunement prévue en deux pièces (3,3') qui peuvent être fixées entre elles mais amovibles avec des moyens connus.In addition to allow easy realization of the cavity (30) and rapid assembly of the elements contained inside the cavity the head is conveniently planned in two pieces (3.3 ') which can be fixed together but removable with known means.
Avec référence aux Figs. 3 et 4 des dessins
annexés, pour la rétraction du nez un fil (12) est
prévu avec un'extrémité ancrée à la base du nez (4)

tête (3) à travers une fente (31): ledit fil (12)
étant pourvu de plusieurs noeuds (33)
fondamentalement sphériques, équidistants ou non.
Pour la protraction du nez un ressort en elisse (7)
de compression est prévu logé entre la base du nez
(4) et ladite fente (31).
Pour permettre le mantien du nez (4) dans une des
possibles positions de rétraction ladite fente (31)
a un profil mixtiligne avec la partie supérieure
circulaire pour permettre le passage des noeuds
(33) du fil (12) et avec la partie inférieure
rectangulaire étroite pour permettre le passage du
fil (12) mais le blocage de chaque noeud (33) à
l'extérieure de la tête (3,3').With reference to Figs. 3 and 4 of the accompanying drawings, for the retraction of the nose a wire (12) is provided with an end anchored at the base of the nose (4) by means of a ring screw (60) and with the other free end and leaving the cavity (30) of the head (3) through a slot (31): said wire (12) being provided with several nodes (33) basically spherical, equidistant or not. For the protraction of the nose, a compression spring (7) is provided housed between the base of the nose (4) and said slot (31).
To allow the nose support (4) in one of the possible retraction positions, said slot (31) has a mixtilinear profile with the circular upper part to allow the passage of the knots (33) of the wire (12) and with the rectangular lower part. narrow to allow the passage of the wire (12) but the blocking of each node (33) outside the head (3,3 ').
