Description

L'invention se rapporte à un jeu d'organes destiné à la formation d'un mobilier léger de présentation d'un visuel, un tel mobilier, et un ensemble de conditionnement d'un tel jeu démonté, par exemple avec son visuel.The invention relates to a set of members intended for the formation of furniture. light presentation of a visual, such furniture, and a set of packaging of such a disassembled game, for example with its visual.

De tels mobiliers permettent la présentation à l'intérieur d'un local, d'informations sous forme de visuels, tels qu'affiches ou analogues.Such furniture allows presentation inside a room, information in the form of visuals, such as posters or the like.

Le document EP-A-768 684 décrit un mobilier léger de présentation d'une affiche.Document EP-A-768 684 describes light furniture for presenting a poster.

Citons aussi les documents US-A-4 700 498, US-A-1 870 798 et US-A-2 005 134.We can also cite documents US-A-4,700,498, US-A-1,870,798 and US-A-2,005 134.

Dans la pratique, il a été constaté que le montage de tels mobiliers n'était pas suffisamment simple et rapide, dans certaines utilisations. Souvent, le nombre important de pièces et leur interchangeabilité apparente rendent possibles des erreurs de montage.In practice, it has been observed that the fitting of such furniture was not fast and simple enough in some uses. Often the number important of parts and their apparent interchangeability make possible mounting errors.

Afin qu'un tel mobilier puisse présenter des affiches de dimensions transversales et d'élévation variées, il est nécessaire de réaliser et de fournir différents tubes de structure d'élévation en X ou d'accrochage du visuel, de dimensions correspondant à celles des affiches à présenter.So that such furniture can present posters of dimensions cross and varied elevation, it is necessary to realize and provide different X-shaped elevation or visual attachment tubes, dimensions corresponding to those of the posters to be presented.

Egalement, la résistance à la flexion de la structure en X du document EP-A-768 684, bien que parfaitement appropriée à la mise sous tension de l'affiche, n'est pas suffisante pour permettre l'accrochage de visuels plus pesants. Ainsi, les visuels à enveloppes permettant la mise à disposition de prospectus, ne peuvent être présentés avec un pareil mobilier.Also, the flexural strength of the X-structure of document EP-A-768 684, although perfectly suitable for energizing the poster, is not sufficient to allow hanging of heavier visuals. So, the visuals in envelopes allowing the provision of prospectuses, do not can be presented with such furniture.

De manière similaire, les mobiliers légers connus ne permettent pas de leur adapter des accessoires tels qu'éclairages. installations sonores, ou analogues. Similarly, known light furniture does not allow their adapt accessories such as lighting. sound installations, or the like.

Il serait souhaitable également que le visuel puisse être installé sur le mobilier, sans préparation préalable telle que collage de tubes ou analogues.It would also be desirable if the visual could be installed on the furniture, without prior preparation such as gluing of tubes or the like.

Par ailleurs, le socle d'un tel mobilier devrait occuper une surface au sol la moins importante possible, tout en présentant une stabilité au moins aussi bonne.Furthermore, the base of such furniture should occupy a floor area the as low as possible, while at least also providing stability good.

D'autres types de mobiliers de présentation de visuels sont connus.Other types of visual display furniture are known.

Ainsi, le document FR-A-2 725 543 décrit un mobilier pour présenter un kakémono ou analogue. Le mobilier comprend une barre flexible encastrée en sa partie inférieure dans un socle, la partie supérieure comportant une encoche au moyen de laquelle est accrochée le kakémono.Thus, document FR-A-2 725 543 describes furniture for presenting a kakemono or the like. The furniture includes a flexible bar embedded in its lower part in a base, the upper part having a notch by means of which the kakemono is hung.

Un tel mobilier est relativement lourd. Le poids, notamment de son socle, est par exemple de l'ordre de 15 kilogrammes. Cela rend son maniement et transport fastidieux.Such furniture is relatively heavy. The weight, in particular of its base, is for example of the order of 15 kilograms. This makes its handling and tedious transport.

Tandis que ce mobilier est inadapté aux envois postaux.While this furniture is unsuitable for mailings.

Aussi, du fait de leur fonction de présentation, il est souhaitable que les mobiliers aient des constituants techniquement utiles, qui soient le moins visibles que possible, ou dont la structure autorise une apparence attrayante.Also, because of their presentation function, it is desirable that the furnishings have technically useful constituents, which are the least visible as possible, or whose structure allows an attractive appearance.

Tandis qu'une forte demande reste insatisfaite à ce jour, pour un mobilier offrant des solutions aux problèmes évoqués, et dont le coût soit plus réduit.While a high demand remains unsatisfied to date, for furniture offering solutions to the problems mentioned, and the cost of which is more reduced.

L'invention a pour but de résoudre ces inconvénients notamment.The invention aims to solve these drawbacks in particular.

Elle vise entre autre à propose un mobilier de présentation qui soit stable, léger, d'assemblage simple et rapide, et qui soit à même de s'adapter encore plus facilement à un visuel de dimensions variées. Among other things, it aims to offer presentation furniture that is stable, light, quick and easy to assemble and able to adapt even more easily to a visual of various dimensions.

A cet effet, un premier objet de l'invention est un jeu d'organes, destiné à la formation d'un mobilier léger de présentation d'un visuel, sous une tension sensiblement d'élévation, tel que défini dans les revendications.To this end, a first object of the invention is a set of organs, intended for the formation of light furniture to display a visual, under tension substantially elevation, as defined in the claims.

Un second objet de l'invention concerne un mobilier léger de présentation d'un visuel comprenant en combinaison un visuel assemblé à un jeu d'organes, selon les revendications.A second object of the invention relates to light furniture for presenting a visual comprising in combination a visual assembled with a set of organs, according to the claims.

Un troisième objet de l'invention concerne un ensemble de conditionnement comportant un contenant tel un tube cylindrique par exemple en carton comprenant un jeu d'organes et/ou un mobilier démonté, selon les revendications.A third object of the invention relates to a packaging assembly comprising a container such as a cylindrical tube, for example of cardboard including a set of organs and / or dismantled furniture, according to claims.

Sur les figures sont représentées des directions mutuellement octogonales L, T et E.In the figures are shown mutually octagonal directions L, T summer.

La direction L est dite latérale, la direction T transversale et la direction E d'élévation.Direction L is said to be lateral, direction T transverse and direction E elevation.

Elles définissent les directions principales choisies pour la description de l'invention. Ces directions peuvent prendre une orientation quelconque dans l'espace.They define the main directions chosen for the description of the invention. These directions can take any orientation in space.

Dans la description d'un mobilier monté, la direction L correspond a une profondeur du mobilier vu de face comme sur la figure 2. Tandis que la direction T correspond à sa largeur. La direction E est sa hauteur, et est sensiblement verticale.In the description of fitted furniture, the direction L corresponds to a depth of the furniture seen from the front as in figure 2. While the management T corresponds to its width. Direction E is its height, and is substantially vertical.

Les directions L et T définissent donc un plan considéré comme parallèle à un plan d'appui sur lequel repose le mobilier, en position de présentation. The directions L and T therefore define a plane considered to be parallel to a support plan on which the furniture rests, in the presentation position.

S'agissant par exemple du sol, le plan d'appui est alors sensiblement horizontal.As regards for example the ground, the support plane is then substantially horizontal.

Il est fait référence aux directions L, T et E pour les organes séparés, en tant que direction de destination dans un mobilier monté, pour simplifier la description.Reference is made to the directions L, T and E for the separate organs, as as destination direction in fitted furniture, to simplify the description.

Il est précisé ici que les termes inférieur ou bas, et supérieur ou haut sont considérés suivant la direction d'élévation E, respectivement comme indiquant un emplacement dirigé du côté du sol et à l'opposé du sol.It is specified here that the terms lower or lower, and upper or higher are considered in the direction of elevation E, respectively as indicating a location directed to the ground side and away from the ground.

Tandis que les termes devant ou avant, et derrière ou arrière se rapportent à la direction latérale L.While the terms front or front, and behind or rear refer to the lateral direction L.

Le jeu d'organes 1 selon l'invention est destiné à former avec un visuel 2 notamment, un mobilier 3 léger de présentation de ce visuel 2.The set of organs 1 according to the invention is intended to form with a visual 2 in particular, light furniture 3 for presenting this visual 2.

Le montage du mobilier 3, est réalisé par assemblage, sans outils, des organes du jeu 1.The assembly of the furniture 3 is carried out by assembling, without tools, the members of game 1.

Le jeu d'organes 1 comprend en combinaison :

  • des organes d'accrochage ou moyens d'accrochage 4 au visuel 2 ;
  • un socle 5 ;
  • un ou plusieurs éléments de structure flexible 6 ;
  • des moyens de jonction supérieurs 7, ici sous forme d'un organe unique.
The organ set 1 comprises in combination:
  • attachment members or attachment means 4 to the display 2;
  • a base 5;
  • one or more flexible structural elements 6;
  • upper joining means 7, here in the form of a single member.

Selon un mode de réalisation, le visuel 2 est une affiche 8 comportant deux bords transversaux 9, 9a et deux bords 10 s'étendant suivant la direction d'élévation E respectivement sensiblement parallèles deux à deux.According to one embodiment, the display 2 is a poster 8 comprising two transverse edges 9, 9a and two edges 10 extending in the direction elevation E respectively substantially parallel two by two.

L'affiche 8 présente une face avant 11 visible portant l'information et une face arrière 12 cachée disposée à l'opposé de la face avant 11.The poster 8 has a visible front face 11 carrying the information and a face hidden rear 12 arranged opposite the front face 11.

L'affiche 8 comporte à chacun de ses bords transversaux 9, 9a des moyens d'accrochage 4. The poster 8 has at each of its transverse edges 9, 9a means hanging 4.

Les moyens d'accrochage 4 comprennent des moyens d'accrochage supérieurs 13 et des moyens d'accrochage inférieurs 14.The hooking means 4 comprise upper hooking means 13 and lower hooking means 14.

Ici, ces moyens 13, 14 sont des tiges par exemple en fibre de carbone, en forme générale de tubes creux.Here, these means 13, 14 are rods, for example made of carbon fiber, general shape of hollow tubes.

Pour présenter des visuels 2 de différentes largeurs suivant la direction transversale T, seule la dimension correspondante des moyens 13, 14 d'accrochage doit être modifiée.To present visuals 2 of different widths according to the direction transverse T, only the corresponding dimension of the means 13, 14 attachment must be changed.

Dans une réalisation, cette modification consiste à prévoir des moyens 13, 14 de dimension appropriée, en remplacement.In one embodiment, this modification consists in providing means 13, 14 of appropriate size, instead.

Les moyens d'accrochage supérieurs 13 sont assemblés au bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8.The upper hooking means 13 are assembled at the transverse edge upper 9a of poster 8.

Ces moyens 13 sont de dimensions transversales sensiblement égales aux dimensions transversales de l'affiche 8.These means 13 are of transverse dimensions substantially equal to the transverse dimensions of the poster 8.

Ils comprennent un élément de solidarisation 15 coopérant avec un élément formant tringle 16.They include a fastening element 15 cooperating with an element rod 16.

Sur la figure 4b, l'élément de solidarisation 15 a une forme générale en section latérale de P ouvert défini par une hampe 17 et une crosse 18.In FIG. 4b, the fastening element 15 has a general shape in section lateral of open P defined by a shank 17 and a stock 18.

Cet élément 15 comprend des premiers moyens de maintien 19 à l'affiche 8, et des seconds moyens de maintien 20 à l'élément formant tringle 16.This element 15 comprises first holding means 19 on the display 8, and second holding means 20 for the rod element 16.

Les premiers moyens de maintien 19 sont disposés au niveau de la hampe 17. Ils permettent la solidarisation proprement dite à l'affiche 8.The first holding means 19 are arranged at the level of the shaft 17. They allow the actual joining to the poster 8.

Ces moyens 19 se présentent sous la forme d'un méplat 21.These means 19 are in the form of a flat 21.

Le méplat 21 est délimité par un bord transversal 22 ,ici sensiblement parallèle au bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8 et deux bords 23 de direction d'élévation E sensiblement parallèles deux à deux. The flat 21 is delimited by a transverse edge 22, here substantially parallel at the upper transverse edge 9a of the poster 8 and two steering edges 23 elevation E substantially parallel two by two.

Ce méplat 21 forme une surface de solidarisation destinée à être assemblée par soudage, collage, agrafage ou analogue à la face arrière 12 de l'affiche 8.This flat 21 forms a joining surface intended to be assembled by welding, gluing, stapling or the like to the rear face 12 of the poster 8.

Sur la figure 6, une fente 24 est ménagée tout le long du bord transversal 22.In FIG. 6, a slot 24 is formed all along the transverse edge 22.

L'intérieur de la fente 24 est munie d'arêtes 25. Celles-ci sont saillantes vers l'intérieur de la fente 24 suivant la direction latérale L et s'étendent suivant la direction transversale T, en regard les unes des autres.The interior of the slot 24 is provided with edges 25. These protrude towards the interior of the slot 24 in the lateral direction L and extend along the transverse direction T, facing each other.

Ainsi la fente 24 reçoit le bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8. Ce dernier est maintenu par agrafage élastique ou "clippage" au moyen des arêtes 25.Thus the slot 24 receives the upper transverse edge 9a of the poster 8. The latter is held by elastic stapling or "clipping" by means of the edges 25.

Le méplat 21 est prolongé suivant la direction d'élévation E au niveau de la crosse 18 par des seconds moyens de maintien 20.The flat 21 is extended in the direction of elevation E at the level of the stock 18 by second holding means 20.

Les seconds moyens de maintien 20 se présentent sous la forme d'un rabat 26. Le rabat 26 fait saillie du bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8.The second holding means 20 are in the form of a flap 26. The flap 26 projects from the upper transverse edge 9a of the poster 8.

Le rabat 26 s'étend transversalement et forme un canal 27 ouvert. Le canal 27 est ouvert du côté de la face arrière 12 de l'affiche 8. L'ouverture du canal 27 est dirigée suivant la direction d'élévation E, vers le sol.The flap 26 extends transversely and forms an open channel 27. Channel 27 is open on the rear side 12 of the poster 8. The opening of the channel 27 is directed in the direction of elevation E, towards the ground.

Le canal 27 est destiné à recevoir l'élément formant tringle 16.The channel 27 is intended to receive the rod element 16.

Une ouverture 28 est pratiquée dans la région médiane du rabat 26, à égale distance des bords d'élévation 23.An opening 28 is made in the middle region of the flap 26, at equal distance from elevation edges 23.

Cette ouverture 28 est destinée à permettre la coopération de l'élément 16 avec les moyens de jonction supérieurs 7.This opening 28 is intended to allow the cooperation of the element 16 with the upper joining means 7.

L'élément 16 est ici un tube cylindrique étendu transversalement, en matière synthétique, par exemple en fibres de carbone.The element 16 is here a cylindrical tube extended transversely, in material synthetic, for example carbon fiber.

Les moyens d'accrochage inférieurs 14 sont disposés au niveau du bord transversal inférieur 9 de l'affiche 8. Ils comprennent un élément de solidarisation 15 à l'affiche 8 et un élément formant tringle 16 tels que décrits ci-dessus ainsi que des moyens d'appui 29. The lower hooking means 14 are arranged at the edge lower transverse 9 of the poster 8. They include an element of joining 15 to the poster 8 and a rod element 16 as described above as well as support means 29.

Les moyens d'appui 29 sont destinés à reposer sur le sol. Ils sont ici au nombre de deux, disposés à chaque extrémité transversale de l'élément formant tringle 16.The support means 29 are intended to rest on the ground. They are here in number two, arranged at each transverse end of the rod member 16.

Chacun de ces moyens d'appui 29 est une pièce 30 de forme notamment perpendiculaire à la direction transversale T, arrondie, par exemple une roue d'axe transversal, sur la figure 1.Each of these support means 29 is a part 30 of shape in particular perpendicular to the transverse direction T, rounded, for example a wheel transverse axis, in Figure 1.

Dans une réalisation, les moyens 29 sont aptes à allonger les moyens 14, pour adapter la dimension transversale T du mobilier 3 à un visuel 2. Alors, avec un seul tube creux des moyens 14, et des moyens 29 formant rallonge, le même mobilier 3 peut présenter diverses dimensions transversales du visuel 2.In one embodiment, the means 29 are able to extend the means 14, to adapt the transverse dimension T of the furniture 3 to a visual 2. So, with a single hollow tube of the means 14, and of the means 29 forming an extension, the same furniture 3 can have various transverse dimensions of visual 2.

Les moyens 14 coopèrent avec le socle 5 notamment par l'élément formant tringle 16.The means 14 cooperate with the base 5 in particular by the element forming rod 16.

Le socle 5 est étendu principalement suivant la direction latérale L, perpendiculairement aux moyens 14.The base 5 is extended mainly in the lateral direction L, perpendicular to the means 14.

Il a la forme générale d'une crosse 31, la partie allongée longitudinalement 32 de la crosse 31 étant disposée du côté des moyens 14.It has the general shape of a stick 31, the elongated part longitudinally 32 of the stock 31 being disposed on the side of the means 14.

Cette partie 32 comporte ici deux pièces 33 parallèles l'une à l'autre. s'étendant latéralement vers les moyens 14.This part 32 here comprises two parts 33 parallel to each other. stretching laterally towards the means 14.

Dans la réalisation des figures 12 à 28, le socle 5 est monobloc, par exemple venu de moulage d'une matière synthétique et/ou d'un métal léger tel qu'aluminium.In the embodiment of FIGS. 12 to 28, the base 5 is in one piece, for example come from molding of a synthetic material and / or a light metal such than aluminum.

Ces pièces latérales 33 comportent en leur extrémité située du côté des moyens 14, des moyens de jonction inférieurs 34 aux moyens 14.These side pieces 33 have at their end located on the side of the means 14, lower joining means 34 to means 14.

Les moyens de jonction inférieurs 34 ont la forme d'un crochet 59. Ce dernier coopère avec l'élément 16 au niveau de l'ouverture 28 du rabat 26, sa concavité permettant l'appui de l'élément 16, une fois le visuel 2 tendu. The lower joining means 34 have the form of a hook 59. The latter cooperates with the element 16 at the opening 28 of the flap 26, its concavity allowing the support of the element 16, once the visual 2 is stretched.

Au droit de la partie recourbée 31 a de la crosse 31, la face transversale inférieure 36, c'est-à-dire reposant sur le sol, forme les moyens d'appui 35 du socle. Ces derniers sont ici une zone d'appui unique 58 du socle 5.In line with the curved part 31 a of the butt 31, the transverse face lower 36, that is to say resting on the ground, forms the support means 35 of the basement. The latter are here a single support zone 58 of the base 5.

La partie recourbée 31a comprend en outre à sa face supérieure 37, ici longitudinale en direction d'élévation E à l'opposé de la face transversale inférieure 36, des moyens de fixation 38 de l'élément de structure flexible 6.The curved portion 31a further comprises at its upper face 37, here longitudinal in elevation direction E opposite the transverse face lower 36, means 38 for fixing the flexible structural element 6.

Les moyens de fixation 38 comprennent un ou plusieurs logements 39 s'ouvrant vers le haut sensiblement suivant la direction d'élévation E.The fixing means 38 comprise one or more openings 39 opening upwards substantially in the direction of elevation E.

Sur la figure 7, les logements 39 sont au nombre de quatre.In FIG. 7, the housings 39 are four in number.

Ces logements 39 sont de sections sensiblement perpendiculaires à la direction d'élévation E, différentes les unes des autres.These housings 39 are of sections substantially perpendicular to the direction of elevation E, different from each other.

Plus précisément, ces logements 39 sont disposés en alignement les uns à la suite des autres suivant la direction latérale L. Leurs sections sont d'aires croissantes d'avant en arrière, depuis des moyens de jonction inférieurs 34, vers l'extrémité opposée de la crosse 31. C'est-à-dire que le logement 39 de plus petite section est le plus proche de ces moyens 34.More specifically, these housings 39 are arranged in alignment with one another. continuation of the others in the lateral direction L. Their sections are of areas increasing from front to back, from lower joining means 34, towards the opposite end of the butt 31. That is to say that the housing 39 of smaller section is the closest to these means 34.

Chaque logement 39 a une section sensiblement complémentaire à celle d'une extrémité inférieure 40 d'un élément de structure flexible 6 prédéterminé qu'il est destiné à recevoir.Each housing 39 has a section substantially complementary to that of a lower end 40 of a flexible structural element 6 predetermined that it is intended to receive.

Ceci permet de déterminer facilement et rapidement la position latérale de l'élément de structure flexible 6 avec le socle 5 et d'éviter ainsi des erreurs de montage du mobilier 3.This allows you to easily and quickly determine the lateral position of the flexible structural element 6 with the base 5 and thus avoid errors of furniture assembly 3.

Cette position garantit aussi une mise sous tension optimale de l'affiche 8, en fonction de la hauteur de l'élément 6.This position also guarantees optimal energization of the poster 8, in depending on the height of the element 6.

L'élément de structure flexible 6 est destiné à former, seul ou par assemblage d'un ou plusieurs autres éléments de structure flexible 6, une structure d'élévation 41. The flexible structural element 6 is intended to form, alone or by assembly of one or more other flexible structural elements 6, a structure elevation 41.

La structure d'élévation 41 présente une flexibilité suffisante pour permettre une légère flexion par rapport à la direction d'élévation E. Cette flexion vers l'avant latéralement, définit la mise sous tension du visuel 2. La structure 41 est toutefois plus rigide que les structures d'élévation en X connues et permet ainsi de maintenir sous tension des visuels 2 de poids important.The elevation structure 41 has sufficient flexibility to allow a slight bending relative to the elevation direction E. This bending forward laterally, defines the energization of the visual 2. The structure 41 is however more rigid than the known X-rise structures and thus allows to keep energized visuals 2 of significant weight.

L'élément de structure flexible 6 est sur la figure 10, un tube 44 de forme tronconique, dont la grande section perpendiculairement à la direction E est du côté du socle 5. Les extrémités inférieures et supérieures 40, 42 de l'élément 6, sont respectivement pourvues de moyens 43 d'assemblage aux autres éléments 6.The flexible structural element 6 is in Figure 10, a tube 44 of shape frustoconical, whose large section perpendicular to the direction E is of side of the base 5. The lower and upper ends 40, 42 of the element 6, are respectively provided with means 43 for joining to the others items 6.

Les éléments 6 de la figure 10 sont en matière synthétique, par exemple en fibres de carbone. Plus précisément, ces éléments 6 sont obtenus par enroulement filamentaire d'une fibre de carbone solidarisée par un enduit.The elements 6 of FIG. 10 are made of synthetic material, for example in carbon fibers. More precisely, these elements 6 are obtained by filament winding of a carbon fiber secured by a coating.

Les moyens 43 d'assemblage sont ici de type mâle/femelle, afin de permettre l'emboítement des tubes 44, 44a l'un à la suite de l'autre, pour former une structure d'élévation 41.The assembly means 43 are here of the male / female type, in order to allow the fitting of the tubes 44, 44a one after the other, to form a elevation structure 41.

Sur la figure 10, les moyens 43 comprennent un tronçon mâle 45 disposé en saillie du tube 44 à son extrémité inférieure 40, et un logement femelle 46 de forme complémentaire à celle du tronçon mâle 45, à l'extrémité supérieure 42 du tube 44a.In FIG. 10, the means 43 comprise a male section 45 arranged in projection of the tube 44 at its lower end 40, and a female housing 46 of shape complementary to that of the male section 45, at the upper end 42 of tube 44a.

Le tronçon mâle 45 est ici sensiblement de forme cylindrique.The male section 45 is here substantially cylindrical in shape.

La longueur de la structure d'élévation 41 et donc le nombre d'éléments 6 assemblés, est choisie en fonction de la dimension d'élévation de l'affiche 8 à présenter.The length of the elevation structure 41 and therefore the number of elements 6 assembled, is chosen according to the elevation dimension of the poster 8 to present.

Dans des réalisations, la structure 41 est constituée de trois ou quatre éléments 6 mis bouts-à-bouts.In embodiments, the structure 41 consists of three or four elements 6 put end-to-end.

Chaque élément 6 présente une section tronconique à l'extrémité inférieure 40 de dimension différente de façon à ce qu'une fois emboítés les uns à la suite des autres, les éléments 6 forment une structure 41 profilée suivant la direction d'élévation E, avec une allure générale de canne. Each element 6 has a frustoconical section at the lower end 40 of different size so that once nested one after the other others, the elements 6 form a structure 41 profiled in the direction elevation E, with a general cane shape.

L'extrémité inférieure 40 d'une telle structure 41 présente donc une section, perpendiculairement à la direction E, de surface plus grande que celle de l'extrémité supérieure 42.The lower end 40 of such a structure 41 therefore has a section, perpendicular to direction E, with a surface larger than that of the upper end 42.

Chaque extrémité inférieure 40 est ainsi adaptée pour être assemblée dans un logement 39 précis, de dimensions complémentaires, du socle 5, sans jeu et sans contrainte latérale ou transversale. Il ne peut exister donc de risque de confusion quant au choix du logement 39 approprié pour fixer la structure d'élévation 41 au socle 5.Each lower end 40 is thus adapted to be assembled in a precise housing 39, of complementary dimensions, of base 5, without play and without lateral or transverse constraints. There can therefore be no risk of confusion regarding the choice of appropriate housing 39 to fix the structure elevation 41 to base 5.

Cet assemblage est de plus aisément démontable, puisqu'il est assimilable à un guidage coulissant suivant la direction d'élévation E. Le positionnement par rapport au socle 5 d'une structure 41 est déterminé par la mise en butée de son extrémité inférieure 40 contre le fonds du logement 39 correspondant.This assembly is moreover easily removable, since it is comparable to a sliding guide along the elevation direction E. Positioning by relation to the base 5 of a structure 41 is determined by the abutment of its lower end 40 against the corresponding housing bottom 39.

L'extrémité supérieure 42 de la structure d'élévation 41 ainsi formée coopère avec les moyens de jonction supérieurs 7. En fait, ces moyens 7 sont montés sur l'extrémité 42 de la structure 41 par engagement à force avec un frottement suffisant pour assurer ce montage après la mise sous tension du visuel 2.The upper end 42 of the elevation structure 41 thus formed cooperates with the upper joining means 7. In fact, these means 7 are mounted on the end 42 of the structure 41 by force engagement with friction sufficient to ensure this assembly after switching on the display 2.

Ces moyens 7 sont de forme sensiblement cylindrique. Ils sont disposés au niveau de l'ouverture médiane 28 du rabat 26.These means 7 are of substantially cylindrical shape. They are arranged at level of the middle opening 28 of the flap 26.

L'axe longitudinal du cylindre défini par les moyens de jonction 7 est donc sensiblement latéral et perpendiculaire au bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8.The longitudinal axis of the cylinder defined by the joining means 7 is therefore substantially lateral and perpendicular to the upper transverse edge 9a of poster 8.

Ces moyens 7 comportent d'une part, à proximité d'une extrémité arrière faisant saillie à la face arrière 12 de l'affiche 8, des moyens de fixation 47 de l'extrémité supérieure 42.These means 7 comprise on the one hand, near a rear end making projection on the rear face 12 of the poster 8, fixing means 47 for the end upper 42.

Ces moyens 47 sont sur la figure 9, un logement 48 sensiblement étendu suivant la direction E. L'ouverture 49 du logement 48 est alors dirigée suivant la direction d'élévation E vers le bas, c'est-à-dire vers le socle 5.These means 47 are in Figure 9, a housing 48 substantially extended along direction E. The opening 49 of housing 48 is then directed along the direction of elevation E downwards, i.e. towards the base 5.

Les moyens de jonction supérieurs 7 présentent latéralement d'autre part, à la face avant 11 du visuel 2, une section 50 plane en biseau. La section 50 est inclinée du côté opposé au socle 5, c'est-à-dire d'avant en arrière et de bas en haut. Ainsi, la section plane 50 est sensiblement confondue avec la face avant 11 du visuel 2.The upper joining means 7 have laterally on the other hand, at the front face 11 of display 2, a flat section 50 at a bevel. Section 50 is inclined on the opposite side to the base 5, that is to say from front to back and from bottom to high. Thus, the flat section 50 is substantially coincident with the front face 11 of display 2.

Cette section 50 comprend en sa région médiane des moyens de fixation 51 aux moyens d'accrochage supérieurs 13. Ces moyens 51 sont ici une encoche en forme de gouttière 52, transversale et parallèle au bord transversal supérieur 9a de l'affiche 8.This section 50 comprises in its central region fixing means 51 to the upper attachment means 13. These means 51 are here a notch in the form of a gutter 52, transverse and parallel to the upper transverse edge 9a of poster 8.

Cette gouttière 52 est prévue pour recevoir l'élément formant tringle 16 et le maintenir en position sur les moyens 7, par agrafage élastique ou analogues.This gutter 52 is designed to receive the rod element 16 and the hold in position on the means 7, by elastic stapling or the like.

Sur la figure 5, l'affiche 8 est pourvue à au moins un de ses bords transversaux 9 ou 9a d'un ourlet 53 transversal.In FIG. 5, the poster 8 is provided with at least one of its transverse edges 9 or 9a with a transverse hem 53.

Cet ourlet 53 forme une sorte de tube fermé destiné à recevoir dans sa concavité l'élément formant tringle 16, par engagement transversal glissant. La fermeture de l'ourlet 53 est effectuée par collage, couture, agrafage, thermocollage ou analogues, généralement suivant un trait transversal.This hem 53 forms a kind of closed tube intended to receive in its concavity the rod element 16, by sliding transverse engagement. The hem 53 is closed by gluing, sewing, stapling, heat sealing or the like, generally along a transverse line.

Dans des réalisations, l'affiche 8 comprend à chacun de ses bords transversaux 9, 9a un ourlet transversal 53.In embodiments, the poster 8 comprises at each of its transverse edges 9, 9 has a transverse hem 53.

L'assemblage d'un mobilier 3 est maintenant décrit.The assembly of furniture 3 is now described.

Le visuel 2 est tout d'abord assemblé aux moyens d'accrochage 4, les moyens d'accrochage supérieurs 13 étant assemblés au bord transversal supérieur 9a et les moyens d'accrochage inférieurs 14 au bord transversal inférieur 9.The display 2 is firstly assembled with the attachment means 4, the means upper hooking 13 being assembled to the upper transverse edge 9a and the lower hooking means 14 to the lower transverse edge 9.

L'élément formant tringle 16 des moyens 13 est ensuite introduit par coulissement transversal dans l'élément de solidarisation 15 et est engagé dans et maintenu par la gouttière 52 des moyens de jonction supérieurs 7.The rod element 16 of the means 13 is then introduced by transverse sliding in the fastening element 15 and is engaged in and maintained by the gutter 52 of the upper joining means 7.

L'élément formant tringle 16 des moyens 14 est introduit de la même manière dans l'élément de solidarisation 15 et est engagé dans et maintenu par les moyens de jonction inférieurs 34 du socle 5. A chaque extrémité transversale de l'élément 16 sont fixés les moyens d'appui 29. The rod element 16 of the means 14 is introduced in the same way in the securing element 15 and is engaged in and maintained by the lower joining means 34 of the base 5. At each transverse end of element 16 are fixed the support means 29.

Le cas échéant, selon la dimension d'élévation du visuel 2, la structure d'élévation 41 est formée par l'assemblage de plusieurs éléments de structure flexible 6.Where appropriate, depending on the elevation dimension of visual 2, the structure elevation 41 is formed by the assembly of several structural elements flexible 6.

La structure 41 est alors logée, à son extrémité inférieure 40, dans un logement 39 approprié du socle 5, et à son extrémité supérieure 42 dans le logement 48 des moyens de jonction supérieurs 7.The structure 41 is then housed, at its lower end 40, in a housing 39 suitable from the base 5, and at its upper end 42 in the housing 48 upper joining means 7.

L'assemblage de la structure d'élévation 41 au reste de l'ensemble comportant le visuel 2 implique de tendre l'ensemble et en particulier de tendre le visuel 2.The assembly of the elevation structure 41 to the rest of the assembly comprising the visual 2 implies to stretch the whole and in particular to stretch the visual 2.

Cette tension a pour effet de fléchir la structure d'élévation 41 légèrement vers l'avant latéralement, et légèrement en élévation vers le bas, en ce qui concerne son extrémité supérieure 42.This tension has the effect of bending the elevation structure 41 slightly towards the front laterally, and slightly downward in elevation its upper end 42.

Une fois relâché, l'ensemble comportant le visuel 2 est prisonnier entre les moyens de jonction supérieurs 7 et inférieurs 34. La structure 41 ayant de par sa flexibilité, tendance à se redresser pour regagner une position d'élévation, elle provoque la mise sous tension du visuel 2. Tandis que les moyens 29 en appui sur le sol, assurent la stabilité transversale du mobilier 3, en collaboration avec les moyens d'appui 35 du socle 5, qui le stabilisent latéralement.Once released, the assembly comprising the visual 2 is trapped between the upper 7 and lower 34 joining means. The structure 41 having its flexibility, tendency to straighten up to regain an elevated position, it causes the display 2 to be energized. While the means 29 support on the ground, ensure the transverse stability of the furniture 3, in collaboration with the support means 35 of the base 5, which stabilize it laterally.

Dans le mobilier 3 ainsi monté, le visuel 2 est monté et maintenu tendu par l'effort exercé par la structure d'élévation 41 en coopération avec les moyens d'appui 29 et 35. Cet effort est orienté vers le haut en élévation ainsi que légèrement vers l'arrière latéralement.In the furniture 3 thus assembled, the display 2 is mounted and kept taut by the effort exerted by the elevation structure 41 in cooperation with the means support 29 and 35. This effort is directed upwards in elevation as well as slightly backwards laterally.

La répartition des moyens d'appui 29 et 35 en trièdre confère au mobilier 3 monté une excellente stabilité et ceci quelques soient les dimensions du visuel 2. Le mobilier 3 repose ainsi de façon isostatique sur le sol.The distribution of support means 29 and 35 in trihedron gives the furniture 3 mounted excellent stability and this whatever the dimensions of the visual 2. The furniture 3 thus rests isostatically on the ground.

De plus, l'encombrement au sol est faible, du fait des espaces libres ménagés par la forme en T à barre transversale et hampe latérale, définie par les moyens 14 et le socle 5. Ceci facilite l'agencement de plusieurs mobiliers 3 les uns à côté des autres. Par exemple, les extrémités arrières de plusieurs socles 5 peuvent être disposées côte-à-côte, pour former avec plusieurs visuels 2 voisins, une présentation à facettes multiples et continues. In addition, the footprint is low, due to the free spaces provided by the T-shape with cross bar and side shank, defined by the means 14 and the base 5. This facilitates the arrangement of several pieces of furniture 3 one at a side of others. For example, the rear ends of several bases 5 can be arranged side by side, to form with several visuals 2 neighbors, a multifaceted and continuous presentation.

Sur la figure 2, le visuel 2 est un panneau flexible à enveloppes 60 destinées à contenir des prospectus ou analogues.In FIG. 2, the display 2 is a flexible panel with envelopes 60 intended for contain prospectuses or the like.

Le visuel 2 est selon les réalisations en matière cellulosique telle que le papier, et/ou en matière synthétique telle que PVC, polyester ou analogues, tissée ou non tissée.Visual 2 is according to the achievements in cellulosic material such as paper, and / or synthetic material such as PVC, polyester or the like, woven or non woven.

Chaque organe du jeu 1 du mobilier 3 et son visuel 2 sont aisément démontables et transportables dans un ensemble de conditionnement 54, illustré sur la figure 11.Each game element 1 of the furniture 3 and its visual 2 are easily removable and transportable in a packaging unit 54, illustrated in figure 11.

Cet ensemble 54 comporte ici un tube 55, contenant cylindrique en carton dont les dimensions sont adaptées à recevoir le jeu d'organes 1 et le visuel 2.This assembly 54 here comprises a tube 55, a cylindrical cardboard container of which the dimensions are adapted to receive the set of members 1 and the visual 2.

L'ensemble 54 comprend en outre ici un sac à bandoulière 56 en toile synthétique, avec un capuchon d'extrémité 57 obturable à l'aide d'une fermeture à glissière périphérique. Le tube 55 est logé dans le sac 56 pour le transport du mobilier 3 en bandoulière.The assembly 54 further includes here a canvas shoulder bag 56 synthetic, with an end cap 57 closable with a closure with peripheral slide. The tube 55 is housed in the bag 56 for transporting the furniture 3 with shoulder strap.

Les organes 1 démontés et le visuel 2 sont introduits dans le tube 55 et forment ainsi un fagot compact et léger. L'ensemble 54 obtenu est donc de poids léger facilement transportable ou envoyé par la poste.The disassembled members 1 and the visual 2 are introduced into the tube 55 and form thus a compact and light bundle. The assembly 54 obtained is therefore light in weight easily transportable or sent by post.

Décrivons maintenant les modes de réalisation de l'invention, illustrés sur les figures 12 à 28. Sur ces figures, les constituants ayant des fonction identiques ou similaires à ceux décrits plus haut, sont désignés par les mêmes références numériques.Let us now describe the embodiments of the invention, illustrated on the Figures 12 to 28. In these figures, the constituents having identical functions or similar to those described above, are designated by the same references digital.

Sur la figure 12, on voit un mode de réalisation de socle 5 à deux parties 32 ou branches longitudinalement opposées.In FIG. 12, one sees an embodiment of the base 5 with two parts 32 or longitudinally opposite branches.

Ce socle 5 est sans moyens d'appui propres.This base 5 is without its own support means.

Un mécanisme 57 est prévu dans le logement 39 unique de réception d'une structure d'élévation flexible 6, avec un piston 60 d'ancrage dans ce logement et de retenue de l'élément flexible, ainsi qu'un organe 61 élastique de renvoi d'extraction rapide de cet élément flexible.A mechanism 57 is provided in the single housing 39 for receiving a flexible elevation structure 6, with a piston 60 for anchoring in this housing and retaining the flexible element, as well as an elastic return member 61 rapid extraction of this flexible element.

Ainsi, il suffit d'introduire l'élément 6 suivant la direction E de haut en bas dans le logement 39 et de l'engager dans le piston 60, d'exercer une légère pression dans les même sens et direction, pour ancrer le piston 60 avec l'élément 6 solidaire, dans des crans 62 à l'intérieur de creux complémentaires 63, contre l'effort de bas en haut de l'organe 61 ici un ressort. Les crans 63 retiennent alors l'ensemble piston 60 et élément 6 conjointement sur le socle 5.Thus, it suffices to introduce the element 6 in the direction E from top to bottom in the housing 39 and to engage it in the piston 60, to exert a light pressure in the same direction and direction, to anchor the piston 60 with the element 6 integral, in notches 62 inside complementary hollows 63, against the force from bottom to top of the member 61 here a spring. Notches 63 retain then the piston 60 and element 6 assembly together on the base 5.

Pour séparer par exemple au démontage du mobilier, la structure 6 du socle 5, une simple pression identique à celle d'assemblage provoque le désengagement des crans 62, suite à quoi le ressort 61 pousse en élévation vers le haut la structure 6 en la libérant.To separate, for example when dismantling the furniture, the structure 6 of the base 5, a simple pressure identical to that of assembly causes the disengagement of the notches 62, after which the spring 61 pushes in elevation upwards the structure 6 by releasing it.

Sur la figure 13 qui est une vue partielle en plan de dessus du socle 5 de la figure 12, on voit bien la forme étendue transversalement des moyens de jonction inférieurs 34.In FIG. 13 which is a partial plan view from above of the base 5 of the Figure 12, we can see the extended shape transversely of the means of lower junction 34.

Ces moyens 34 forment ici une patte sensiblement prismatique à base rectangulaire en projection dans un plan perpendiculaire à la direction E, avec une base principale de grande dimension sensiblement parallèle à la direction T.These means 34 here form a substantially prismatic leg based rectangular in projection in a plane perpendicular to direction E, with a large main base substantially parallel to the direction T.

Comme visible sur la figure 12, cette patte des moyens 34 est inclinée par rapport à la direction L, de haut en bas dans le sens allant du logement 39 vers l'extrémité longitudinalement externe de la partie 32, où est placée cette patte.As visible in FIG. 12, this tab of the means 34 is inclined by relative to direction L, from top to bottom in the direction from the housing 39 towards the longitudinally outer end of the part 32, where this tab is placed.

Notons que le socle 5, sauf les pièces rapportées de son mécanisme 57, est une pièce monobloc en matière synthétique venue de moulage injection avec ses deux pattes 34 longitudinalement opposées. Note that the base 5, except the added parts of its mechanism 57, is a one-piece plastic part from injection molding with its two legs 34 longitudinally opposite.

Ici, le socle 5 est dépourvu de moyens d'appui propres, et possède deux parties allongées 32, en alignement sensiblement opposé de part et d'autre longitudinalement de moyens de fixation 38 de la structure flexible 6, chaque partie allongée 32 étant pourvue de moyens de jonction inférieurs 34 pour des moyens inférieurs 14 d'accrochage, avant et arrière, avec des moyens d'appui 29 propres, en quadrilatère pour reposer sur le sol.Here, the base 5 is devoid of own support means, and has two parts elongated 32, in substantially opposite alignment on either side longitudinally of fastening means 38 of the flexible structure 6, each elongate part 32 being provided with lower joining means 34 for lower attachment means 14, front and rear, with support means 29 clean, quadrilateral to rest on the ground.

Sur la figure 14 qui est une vue partielle schématique en perspective d'élévation transversale arrière d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention, le mobilier 3 est équipé d'un système 64 amovible d'éclairage du visuel 2.In Figure 14 which is a schematic partial view in elevation perspective rear transverse of an embodiment of the invention, the furniture 3 is equipped with a removable visual lighting system 64 2.

Ce système 64 comporte :

  • un cordon d'alimentation 65, avec un transformateur 66, relié au socle 5 de façon amovible;
  • deux tiges conductrices 67 de support, reliées à la structure 6 par des raccords 68 montés sur la structure 6 ; et
  • une source de lumière 69, ici une ampoule halogène basse tension.
This system 64 comprises:
  • a power cord 65, with a transformer 66, detachably connected to the base 5;
  • two conductive support rods 67, connected to the structure 6 by fittings 68 mounted on the structure 6; and
  • a light source 69, here a low voltage halogen bulb.

Les constituants du système 64 sont aisément démontables du mobilier 3 proprement dit, et faciles à ranger dans un ensemble de conditionnement tel que celui désigné en 54 sur la figure 11.The components of the system 64 are easily removable from the furniture 3 proper, and easy to store in a packaging set such than that designated at 54 in FIG. 11.

Sur la figure 15, on voit en coupe d'élévation longitudinale un mode de réalisation de socle 5 à partie ou branche 32 avant unique, avec un insert 70 de lestage et rigidité métallique. Un habillage 71 est surmoulé autour de l'insert 70 en matière synthétique, telle que acrylonitrile butadiène styrène ou « ABS ».In Figure 15, we see in longitudinal elevation section a mode of realization of plinth 5 with part or single branch 32 before, with an insert 70 of ballast and metallic rigidity. A covering 71 is molded around the insert 70 made of synthetic material, such as acrylonitrile butadiene styrene or "ABS".

La figure 16 est une vue en plan de dessus du socle 5 de la figure 15.FIG. 16 is a plan view from above of the base 5 of FIG. 15.

Les figures 17 à 19 illustrent, en élévation longitudinale, un mode de réalisation de moyens de jonction 7 ou support recto/verso en matière synthétique, faisant partie de moyens 13 supérieurs d'accrochage de visuels. Figures 17 to 19 illustrate, in longitudinal elevation, an embodiment connecting means 7 or front / back support in synthetic material, making part of upper means 13 for hanging visuals.

Sur la figure 17, est montré ce support avec des éléments de solidarisation ou parties femelles 15 d'une réglette assemblées, par agrafage engagement, sur des pions du support 72.In Figure 17, is shown this support with securing elements or female parts 15 of a strip assembled, by stapling engagement, on of the pins of the support 72.

Les figures 22 à 24 sont similaires aux figures 17 à 19, et représentent des moyens de jonction 7 ou support simple recto, la figure 22 présentant donc une seule partie femelle 15 de réglette.Figures 22 to 24 are similar to Figures 17 to 19, and show junction means 7 or simple front support, FIG. 22 therefore having a single female part 15 of the strip.

Les figures 20 et 21 sont des vues respectivement en coupe longitudinale et transversale d'un cache d'extrémité 73, prévu pour être monté similairement à ce qui est illustré sur la figure 13, à l'extrémité supérieure de la structure 6, en tant que moyens 7 de jonction supérieurs.Figures 20 and 21 are views respectively in longitudinal section and transverse of an end cover 73, intended to be mounted similarly to which is illustrated in FIG. 13, at the upper end of the structure 6, in as upper 7 connecting means.

La figure 25 est une vue schématique en plan longitudinalement transversal d'un bouchon d'extrémité transversale 74 d'une réglette des moyens d'accrochage 4, selon une réalisation de l'invention. Dans le cas d'une réglette faisant partie des moyens inférieurs d'accrochage 14, ce bouchon 74 forme l'un des moyens d'appui 29.Figure 25 is a schematic view in longitudinally transverse plan of a transverse end plug 74 of a strip of the means attachment 4, according to an embodiment of the invention. In the case of a strip forming part of the lower attachment means 14, this plug 74 forms one support means 29.

Sur la figure 26. le bouchon 74 de la figure 25, montre la forme de pattes d'agrafage élastique 75 destinées à l'assemblage à une extrémité transversale de réglette.In Figure 26. the plug 74 of Figure 25 shows the shape of legs elastic stapling 75 intended for assembly at a transverse end of slider.

Il ressort de la figure 27 que le bouchon 74 possède deux pattes 75, l'une en dessous de l'autre en élévation.It appears from FIG. 27 that the plug 74 has two tabs 75, one in below each other in elevation.

La patte 75 supérieure est inclinée par rapport à la direction longitudinale L de haut en bas depuis l'arrière vers l'avant, et la patte 75 inférieure présente une section ouverte en « C » dans un plan perpendiculaire à la direction T.The upper leg 75 is inclined relative to the longitudinal direction L of top to bottom from back to front, and lower leg 75 has a section open at "C" in a plane perpendicular to direction T.

Enfin, la figure 28 montre en coupe d'élévation longitudinale d'une réalisation de réglette à moyens de serrage 23 sous forme d'insert, faisant partie des moyens d'accrochage 13 ou 14, d'un visuel 2 par enserrage, et avec une cavité 56 complémentaire à un pion 72 à l'arrière.Finally, Figure 28 shows in longitudinal elevation section an embodiment of clamping strip 23 in the form of an insert, forming part of the means attachment 13 or 14, a visual 2 by clamping, and with a cavity 56 complementary to a pawn 72 at the rear.

On remarque en rapprochant les figures 26 et 28 (qui sont inversées en orientation bas haut l'une par rapport à l'autre) que le pourtour externe perpendiculairement à la direction T de la réglette des moyens 23 et du bouchon 74 sont proches, voire confondues.We note by comparing Figures 26 and 28 (which are reversed in orientation low high relative to each other) than the outer periphery perpendicular to the direction T of the strip of the means 23 and the plug 74 are close, even confused.
