Description

L'invention se rapporte à un élévateur, du type qui comprend un bloc échelle à éléments télescopiques, avec une plate-forme coulissante qui y est associée, et qui est apte à être monté sur un véhicule commercial, comme décrit dans le préambule de la revendication 1.The invention relates to an elevator, of the type which comprises a ladder block with telescopic elements, with a sliding platform associated therewith, and which is capable of being mounted on a commercial vehicle, as described in the preamble to the claim 1.

Ainsi qu'il est bien connu, dans le transport par levage en général et, en particulier dans le domaine du déménagement, pour le déplacement des meubles en provenance ou à destination des appartements situés aux différents étages d'un édifice, on utilise des dispositifs comprenant une échelle télescopique à laquelle est associée une plate-forme apte à coulisser le long de cette dernière et destinée à soutenir la charge à déplacer.As is well known, in lifting transport in general and, in particular in the field of moving, for moving furniture from or to apartments located on different floors of a building, devices are used comprising a telescopic ladder with which is associated a platform capable of sliding along the latter and intended to support the load to be moved.

Une solution de construction habituelle prévoit que l'échelle télescopique est ancrée, soit sur un châssis d'automobile à cabine, par l'intermédiaire d'un contre-châssis fixe, soit un camion à plateau (version démontable).A usual construction solution provides that the telescopic ladder is anchored either on a chassis of an automobile with a cabin, by means of a fixed counter-chassis, or on a flatbed truck (removable version).

Pendant le déplacement du véhicule, le bloc échelle reste en position ancrée et sensiblement horizontale.While the vehicle is moving, the ladder block remains in the anchored and substantially horizontal position.

Au contraire, en position de travail, l'échelle est mise en extension vers le haut et inclinée latéralement de manière à atteindre la zone de travail par son extrémité, par exemple, la fenêtre de l'appartement intéressé par le déménagement des meubles.On the contrary, in the working position, the ladder is extended upwards and inclined laterally so as to reach the working area by its end, for example, the window of the apartment interested in moving the furniture.

Spécifiquement, l'inclinaison latérale consiste en une rotation sur l'axe vertical, au moyen d'une crapaudine montée sur la tourelle de support du bloc échelle, de manière que ce dernier se dispose cii position transversale par rapport à la direction longitudinale du véhicule de transport.Specifically, the lateral inclination consists of a rotation on the vertical axis, by means of a clamp mounted on the support turret of the ladder block, so that the latter is arranged in a transverse position relative to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. transport.

Normalement, la crapaudine est montée à proximité de l'essieu arrière du véhicule, et en ligne par rapport à l'axe médian longitudinal de ce dernier.Normally, the clamp is mounted near the rear axle of the vehicle, and in line with the longitudinal median axis of the latter.

Cette disposition implique l'impossibilité de monter des blocs échelle de petite et moyenne grandeur, réalisés sur des châssis de la version démontable, sur des camions à plateau, en raison de la grande dimension transversale de ceux-ci.This arrangement implies the impossibility of mounting small and medium-sized ladder blocks, produced on chassis of the demountable version, on flatbed trucks, due to the large transverse dimension of these.

La grande largeur des plateaux actuels limite notablement l'angle maximum d'inclinaison (le l'échelle, puisqu'elle ne permet pas de dégager sa partie terminale, appelée prolongement au sol, qui sert à faciliter le chargement et le déchargement des objets à déplacer.The large width of current trays significantly limits the maximum angle of inclination (the ladder, since it does not allow its terminal part, called a ground extension, which serves to facilitate the loading and unloading of objects to be released. move.

Le but de l'invention est de réaliser un mécanisme qui soit d'une construction simple, ainsi que d'une utilisation rapide et facile, qui permette de monter des blocs échelle de petites et moyennes dimensions, non seulement sur des châssis automobiles mais aussi sur des camions et autres véhicules qui présentent un plateau d'une dimension transversale élevée, en garantissant aussi la possibilité d'une inclinaison latérale importante.The object of the invention is to provide a mechanism which is simple in construction, as well as quick and easy to use, which makes it possible to mount ladder blocks of small and medium dimensions, not only on automobile chassis but also on trucks and other vehicles that have a platform with a large transverse dimension, also guaranteeing the possibility of a significant lateral tilt.

Ceci est obtenu conformément aux caractéristiques de la partie caractérisante de la revendication 1.This is achieved in accordance with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1.

On utilise un chariot de support du bloc échelle complet, qui est susceptible de se déplacer transversalement, dans les deux sens, par rapport à la direction longitudinale du véhicule de transport.A support trolley for the complete ladder block is used, which is capable of moving transversely, in both directions, relative to the longitudinal direction of the transport vehicle.

Sous l'aspect de la construction, la crapaudine de rotation, au lieu de se bloquer directement sur le plateau du véhicule, est ancrée sur un chariot constitué par une plaque munie de roues qui se déplacent dans des guides solidaires d'une structure de base, munie des stabilisateurs latéraux et solidaire du plateau précité.Under the aspect of construction, the rotating slide, instead of locking directly on the vehicle platform, is anchored on a carriage constituted by a plate provided with wheels which move in guides integral with a basic structure , fitted with lateral stabilizers and secured to the aforementioned plate.

Le déplacement transversal du chariot peut être manuel ou automatique, ainsi que réalisé avec différentes modalités comme, par exemple, avec l'emploi de motoréducteurs, vérins à fluide, accouplements dentés ou au moyen d'une tige filetée ; de même, les organes de déplacement peuvent être constitués par des roues, des coussinets, des barres à recirculation de billes et autres dispositifs connus dans l'état de la technique.The transverse movement of the carriage can be manual or automatic, as well as carried out with different methods such as, for example, with the use of gearmotors, fluid cylinders, toothed couplings or by means of a threaded rod; similarly, the displacement members can be constituted by wheels, bearings, recirculating ball bars and other devices known in the state of the art.

Ces caractéristiques de l'invention ainsi que d'autres seront mieux illustrées par la description d'une forme possible de réalisation, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple illustratif et non limitatif, avec l'aide des planches de dessins annexées sur lesquelles :

  • la fig. 1 (planche I) représente une vue en élévation latérale de l'élévateur, en position de transport ;
  • la fig. 2 (planche II) représente une vue en élévation avant de l'élévateur, en position de travail, avec le bloc échelle incliné latéralement ;
  • la fig. 3 (planche III) représente une vue en plan de la structure de support selon l'invention, en coupe selon la ligne III-III de la fig. 1 ;
  • la fig. 4 représente une vue en élévation de la structure de support selon l'invention, en coupe selon la ligne IV-IV de la fig. 3.
These characteristics of the invention as well as others will be better illustrated by the description of a possible embodiment, given solely by way of illustrative and nonlimiting example, with the help of the plates of attached drawings in which:
  • fig. 1 (plate I) represents a side elevation view of the elevator, in the transport position;
  • fig. 2 (plate II) represents a front elevation view of the elevator, in the working position, with the ladder block inclined laterally;
  • fig. 3 (plate III) represents a plan view of the support structure according to the invention, in section along line III-III of FIG. 1;
  • fig. 4 shows an elevational view of the support structure according to the invention, in section along the line IV-IV of FIG. 3.

Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 1 et 2, sur le plateau 1 du véhicule de transport, est positionné le groupe élévateur 2, composé d'un bloc échelle incluant l'échelle télescopique 3, de la plate-forme coulissante 4, de la tourelle 5, qui contient l'organe d'extension de l'échelle, et de la crapaudine 6, qui tourne sur l'axe vertical.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, on the platform 1 of the transport vehicle, is positioned the lifting group 2, composed of a ladder block including the telescopic ladder 3, of the sliding platform 4, of the turret 5, which contains the extension member of the ladder, and the basket 6, which rotates on the vertical axis.

Entre la crapaudine 6 du bloc échelle et le plateau 1 du véhicule est inséré un châssis intermédiaire 7, constitué par une structure de base 8, munie des stabilisateurs latéraux 9 et solidaire du plateau, et par un chariot 10, composé d'une plaque 11, sur laquelle est ancrée ladite crapaudine, et muni de roues 12, qui se déplacent dans des guides 13, solidaires de ladite structure 8.Between the ladder block 6 of the ladder block and the platform 1 of the vehicle is inserted an intermediate chassis 7, constituted by a basic structure 8, provided with lateral stabilizers 9 and integral with the platform, and by a carriage 10, composed of a plate 11 , sure which said anchor is anchored, and provided with wheels 12, which move in guides 13, integral with said structure 8.

Le déplacement transversal, dans les deux sens, du bloc échelle, pour permettre le dégagement du prolongement au sol 14, lorsque ce bloc est incliné latéralement (voir fig. 2), s'effectue au moyen d'une tige filetée 15 qui engrène avec les blocs 16, solidaires de la plaque 11 de support et qui est mise en rotation manuellement, des deux côtés, au moyen de volants 17.The transverse displacement, in both directions, of the ladder block, to allow the release of the extension on the ground 14, when this block is inclined laterally (see fig. 2), is effected by means of a threaded rod 15 which meshes with the blocks 16, integral with the support plate 11 and which is rotated manually, on both sides, by means of flywheels 17.

Finalement, sur la structure de base 8, sont appliquées des plaques 18 et 19, munies de losanges 20' et 20'' qui permettent de monter le bloc échelle sur une large de gamme de véhicules du type camion possédant des plateaux 1 de différentes dimensions transversales.Finally, on the basic structure 8, plates 18 and 19 are applied, provided with diamonds 20 'and 20' 'which make it possible to mount the ladder block on a wide range of vehicles of the truck type having platforms 1 of different dimensions transverse.
