These projections 28, 29 have the general shape of an inverted L, with concavity facing the recess 11.

Les saillies 28 et 29 sont disposées parallèlement l'une au-dessus de l'autre et en décalage l'une par rapport à l'autre. La première saillie 28 est alignée et parallèle à la face interne 24 de la paroi latérale 9. Tandis que la seconde saillie 29 est alignée avec la face externe 22 de la paroi latérale 9.The projections 28 and 29 are arranged in parallel one above each other and out of line with each other the other. The first projection 28 is aligned and parallel to the internal face 24 of the side wall 9. While the second projection 29 is aligned with the external face 22 of the side wall 9.

D'autre part, ces appendices 30 présentent une première section suffisante permettant ainsi d'éviter la rotation de la bride 2 sur le mât 3 une fois celle-ci montée.On the other hand, these appendices 30 present a first sufficient section thus avoiding rotation of the flange 2 on the mast 3 once it has been mounted.

Chaque appendice 30 présente de plus une seconde section plus faible ou fragilisée, d'axe perpendiculaire à la première.Each appendix 30 further has a second section weaker or weakened, with an axis perpendicular to the first.

Lorsqu'un choc ou une pression avec un marteau ou une pince est exercé sur cette section, l'appendice 30 est supprimée. Ceci permet une adaptation rapide, sur le site de montage par exemple, de la bride 2 à tout type de mât 3.When a shock or pressure with a hammer or pliers is exercised on this section, Appendix 30 is deleted. This allows rapid adaptation on the assembly site for example, from the flange 2 to any type of mast 3.

Celle-ci vient alors coopérer avec la denture 46 d'une des mâchoires 6.The latter then cooperates with the toothing 46 of one of the jaws 6.

Il va être décrit ci-après le montage de la bride 1 permettant d'associer au moins une hampe 2 sur le mât 3.The mounting of the flange 1 will be described below. allowing to associate at least one pole 2 on the mast 3.

Dans un premier temps, les mâchoires 6 et les moyens de réglage 7 sont assemblés les uns aux autres formant ainsi un sous-ensemble d'association 65 de la hampe 2. First, the jaws 6 and the means of setting 7 are assembled to each other thus forming a subset of association 65 of the shaft 2.

Les deux mâchoires 6 sont disposées parallèlement, leurs concavités internes 37 en regard l'une de l'autre. La hampe 2 prend alors place dans le logement 66 ainsi formé.The two jaws 6 are arranged in parallel, their internal concavities 37 facing each other. The pole 2 then takes place in the housing 66 thus formed.

Les moyens de réglage 7 sont assemblés à ces mâchoires 6. A chaque mâchoire 6 correspond un disque 51.The adjustment means 7 are assembled to these jaws 6. A each jaw 6 corresponds to a disc 51.

Chaque disque 51 vient s'imbriquer par sa denture 58, d'une de ses parois 55 ou 56, dans la denture 46 de la paroi 45 de la mâchoire 6.Each disc 51 is nested by its teeth 58, of a of its walls 55 or 56, in the teeth 46 of the wall 45 jaw 6.

La paroi 54 de chaque disque 51 se trouve alors du côté des parties allongées 38 des mâchoires 6.The wall 54 of each disc 51 is then on the side of the elongated parts 38 of the jaws 6.

Un boulon traversant 62 est introduit dans les logements 49 et 61, et coopère avec l'écrou 63 de façon à fixer le sous-ensemble d'association 65 et la hampe 2 dans une position donnée.A through bolt 62 is introduced into the housings 49 and 61, and cooperates with the nut 63 so as to fix the sub-assembly of association 65 and the pole 2 in a position given.

Ainsi, l'axe de rotation C du sous-ensemble d'association fixation 65 est confondu avec l'axe du boulon 62.Thus, the axis of rotation C of the association subset attachment 65 coincides with the axis of the bolt 62.

Puis ce sous-ensemble d'association 65 maintenant la hampe 2 est introduit dans le premier corps 4.Then this subset of association 65 now the shaft 2 is introduced into the first body 4.

Les parties allongées 38 des mâchoires 6 maintenant la hampe 2, sont introduites dans l'ouverture 14. Les tranches 52 formées en trapèze des disques 51, viennent alors en butée contre les cales 20 de la paroi transversale 10 du corps 4.The elongated portions 38 of the jaws 6 holding the stem 2, are introduced into the opening 14. The slices 52 formed in a trapezoid of the discs 51, then come in abutment against the shims 20 of the transverse wall 10 of the body 4.

La paroi 54 est alors en appui contre le logement 18 tandis que chaque paroi 53 est en appui contre chaque cale 20.The wall 54 is then in abutment against the housing 18 while that each wall 53 is in abutment against each wedge 20.

Les logements 57 des disques 51 sont ainsi directement en regard des logements 18 de la paroi transversale 10. The housings 57 of the discs 51 are thus directly in look of the housings 18 of the transverse wall 10.

L'axe longitudinal médian A du corps 4 est alors perpendiculaire à l'axe C de rotation passant par le boulon traversant 62.The median longitudinal axis A of the body 4 is then perpendicular to the axis C of rotation passing through the bolt crossing 62.

Le sous-ensemble d'association 65 est fixé au corps 4 par des moyens de fixation 19, tels des vis, traversant à la fois les logements 18 et les logements 57. Ils forment un ensemble 67.The association sub-assembly 65 is fixed to the body 4 by fastening means 19, such as screws, passing through at the times the housings 18 and the housings 57. They form a together 67.

Ainsi, on comprend que la position de montage des moyens de réglage 7 sur le corps 4 est invariable.Thus, it is understood that the mounting position of the means of setting 7 on the body 4 is invariable.

Tandis que la position de montage des moyens 7 sur les mâchoires 6 est variable angulairement par l'intermédiaire des dentures (58), (46).While the mounting position of the means 7 on the jaws 6 is angularly variable through teeth (58), (46).

Les mâchoires 6 et donc la hampe 2 ont une position qui varie autour de l'axe de rotation C.The jaws 6 and therefore the shaft 2 have a position which varies around the axis of rotation C.

Ainsi, la position de la hampe 2 est réglée suivant l'inclinaison souhaitée par rapport au mât 3.Thus, the position of the pole 2 is adjusted according to the desired inclination relative to the mast 3.

En faisant alternativement coopérer la paroi 56 ou la paroi 55 des disques 51 avec la paroi 45 de la mâchoire 6, du fait du décalage de pas des dentures 58, il est possible de régler très finement l'inclinaison de la hampe 2, de 5 degrés en 5 degrés.By alternately cooperating the wall 56 or the wall 55 of the discs 51 with the wall 45 of the jaw 6, of the step offset of the teeth 58, it is possible to very finely adjust the tilt of the pole 2, from 5 degrees in 5 degrees.

L'assemblage de l'ensemble de fixation 65 dans le corps 4 est ainsi fait que, pour un réglage de l'inclinaison de la hampe 2 dans l'intervalle de 0 à 40 degrés, où 0 degrés représente une inclinaison de la hampe 2 perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal D du mât 3, la hampe 2 est sensiblement affleurante au bord transversal supérieur 17 du corps 4.The assembly of the fixing assembly 65 in the body 4 is thus made that, for an adjustment of the inclination of the shank 2 in the range of 0 to 40 degrees, where 0 degrees represents an inclination of the pole 2 perpendicular to the longitudinal axis D of the mast 3, the pole 2 is substantially flush with the upper transverse edge 17 of the body 4.

D'autre part, pour un intervalle d'inclinaison compris entre 45 et 90 degrés, la hampe 2 est sensiblement affleurante et tangente au bord transversal inférieur 16 du corps 4.On the other hand, for an inclination interval included between 45 and 90 degrees, the pole 2 is substantially flush and tangent to the lower transverse edge 16 of the body 4.

Le premier corps 4 renfermant le sous-ensemble 65 et le second corps 5 sont ensuite placés à la périphérie du mât 3. Les bords 12a et 12b se trouvent alors en appui contre le mât 3.The first body 4 containing the sub-assembly 65 and the second body 5 are then placed at the periphery of the mast 3. The edges 12a and 12b are then pressed against the mast 3.

Les appendices 30 viennent se loger dans des trous 64 du mât 3 prévus à cet effet.The appendages 30 are housed in holes 64 of the mast 3 provided for this purpose.

Les moyens d'assemblage 13 des premier et second corps 4 et 5 respectivement, viennent s'imbriquer les uns dans les autres, autour du mât 3.The assembly means 13 of the first and second bodies 4 and 5 respectively, overlap each other others, around the mast 3.

Les saillies 29 du premier corps 4 viennent alors en recouvrement des saillies 28 du second corps 5 et inversement.The projections 29 of the first body 4 then come in overlap of the projections 28 of the second body 5 and Conversely.

La bride 1 ainsi montée, est fixée au mât 3 par des moyens de serrage 27. Les vis 32 et entretoises 33 sont introduites dans les logements 26 et 35.The flange 1 thus mounted, is fixed to the mast 3 by means tightening 27. The screws 32 and spacers 33 are introduced into housings 26 and 35.

Les vis 32 permettent de plaquer les corps 4 et 5 contre le mât 3 par vissage de celles-ci dans les entretoises 33.The screws 32 allow the bodies 4 and 5 to be pressed against the mast 3 by screwing them into the spacers 33.

Dans une variante de réalisation illustrée à la figure 21, les moyens de serrage 27 sont une ceinture 34.In an alternative embodiment illustrated in FIG. 21, the clamping means 27 are a belt 34.

Celle-ci englobe alors les deux corps 4 et 5 et le mât 3 avec un système de serrage (non représenté) qui applique un effort de traction sur les deux extrémités libres de cette ceinture 34.This then includes the two bodies 4 and 5 and the mast 3 with a clamping system (not shown) which applies a tensile force on the two free ends of this belt 34.

Suivant un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention illustré sur les figures 17 à 20, la bride 1 comporte deux corps 4 renfermant chacun un sous-ensemble d'association 65. According to another embodiment of the invention illustrated in Figures 17 to 20, the flange 1 has two body 4 each containing a subset of association 65.

Cette bride 1 permet alors l'association de deux hampes 2 au mât 3.This flange 1 then allows the association of two poles 2 at mast 3.

Suivant une variante de réalisation illustrée sur les figures 17 et 18, les corps 4 sont assemblés l'un à l'autre autour du mât 3 maintenant chacun une hampe 2.According to an alternative embodiment illustrated on the Figures 17 and 18, the bodies 4 are assembled to each other around the mast 3 each holding a pole 2.

Les corps 4 sont disposés à la périphérie du mât 3 de manière que leurs parois longitudinales supérieures 8a soient parallèles et confondues en un même plan.The bodies 4 are arranged at the periphery of the mast 3 of so that their upper longitudinal walls 8a are parallel and merged into one plane.

Un tel montage permet d'associer deux hampes 2 au mât 3. De plus, l'inclinaison de chaque hampe 2 est variable et réglée par les moyens de réglage 7.Such an assembly allows two shafts 2 to be associated with the mast 3. more, the inclination of each pole 2 is variable and adjusted by the adjusting means 7.

De nombreuses configurations peuvent être ainsi obtenues.Many configurations can be obtained in this way.

Suivant une autre variante de réalisation illustrée sur les figures 19 et 20, l'un des corps 4 est monté, renversé par rapport à l'autre.According to another alternative embodiment illustrated on the Figures 19 and 20, one of the bodies 4 is mounted, overturned by compared to each other.

La paroi longitudinale inférieure 8b est alors disposée du côté opposé du sol, tandis que la paroi longitudinale supérieure 8a est disposée du côté du sol.The lower longitudinal wall 8b is then disposed of the opposite side of the floor, while the longitudinal wall upper 8a is arranged on the ground side.

Les deux corps 4 sont alors disposés de manière que la paroi longitudinale supérieure 8a de l'un des corps 4 soit parallèle et confondue en un même plan à la paroi longitudinale 8b de l'autre corps 4.The two bodies 4 are then arranged so that the upper longitudinal wall 8a of one of the bodies 4 or parallel and merged in one plane to the wall longitudinal 8b of the other body 4.

De la même manière que ci-dessus, de nombreuses configurations sont obtenues.In the same way as above, many configurations are obtained.

Par exemple, pour des inclinaisons de hampes 2 réglées entre 10° et 20 degrés, et en fonction du diamètre du mât 3, une configuration dite hampe 2 traversante est obtenue telle qu'illustrée sur les figure 19 et 20. For example, for 2 tilted shank slopes between 10 ° and 20 degrees, and depending on the diameter of the mast 3, a configuration known as a through shaft 2 is obtained as illustrated in Figures 19 and 20.

Cette configuration donne l'impression qu'une même et seule hampe 2 traverse le mât 3. En fait les axes longitudinaux F, F' des hampes 2 des corps 4 se trouvent alors alignés.This configuration gives the impression that one and only pole 2 crosses mast 3. Actually the longitudinal axes F, F 'of the stems 2 of the bodies 4 are then aligned.

Ainsi, par la combinaison des différentes positions du corps 4 associé au mât 3, avec les moyens de réglage 7, la hampe 2 peut prendre toutes les configurations possibles dans un intervalle de 0 à 180 degrés.Thus, by the combination of the different positions of the body 4 associated with the mast 3, with the adjustment means 7, the pole 2 can take all possible configurations in the range of 0 to 180 degrees.
