La présente invention concerne les installations de stockage et de rétention de récipients, notamment de bouteilles de gaz, du type comprenant au moins deux emplacements de réception de récipients pourvus chacun d'un dispositif de rétention déplacable entre une configuration d'ouverture et une configuration de fermeture.The present invention relates to storage and retention of receptacles, in particular gas cylinders, of the type comprising at least two receptacles for receiving receptacles each provided with a retention device movable between an opening configuration and a closing configuration.

Des installations de ce type sont décrites par exemple dans le document WO-A-98/27380, au nom de la demanderesse.Installations of this type are described for example in the document WO-A-98/27380, in the name of the applicant.

Dans les installations connues, les emplacements de réception de récipients sont disposés dans une salle d'un bâtiment aménagée spécialement pour recevoir les infrastructures des emplacements de réception de bouteilles et leurs dispositifs de rétentions.In known installations, the reception locations for containers are arranged in a room of a specially furnished building to receive the infrastructure of the bottle reception sites and their retention systems.

Outre les coûts et disponibilité en m2 de locaux, et les coûts d'adaptation sus-mentionnés, ces solutions n'offrent en général pas la flexibilité voulue pour mettre à disposition les récipients en un endroit adéquat par rapport aux zones de travail où sont utilisés ces récipients.In addition to the costs and availability in m 2 of premises, and the above-mentioned adaptation costs, these solutions generally do not offer the flexibility required to make the containers available in a suitable location in relation to the work areas where used these containers.

La présente invention a pour objet de proposer une installation de stockage et de rétention autonome, optimisée, modulaire et versatile, transportable, de faibles coûts de revient, de pose et dépose rapide et convenant à tous sites utilisateurs.The object of the present invention is to provide an installation for autonomous, optimized, modular and versatile storage and retention, transportable, low production costs, rapid installation and removal and suitable for all user sites.

Pour ce faire, selon une caractéristique de l'invention, les emplacements de réception sont aménagés dans le volume intérieur d'un module de caisson transportable et assemblable à au moins un autre module de caisson.To do this, according to a characteristic of the invention, the reception spaces are arranged in the interior volume of a transportable box module which can be assembled with at least one other module box.

Selon des caractéristiques particulières de l'invention :

  • les emplacements de réception de récipients sont disposés en râtelier sur au moins une paroi du module
  • les râteliers sont disposés sur au moins une paroi intérieure, typiquement latérale, du module, les modules étant typiquement assemblables entre eux par leurs faces frontales
  • au moins ladite paroi latérale est pourvue d'ouvertures de ventilation
  • l'installation comporte un module de caisson équipé de moyens de commande d'accès au volume intérieur des modules assemblés
  • les moyens de commande d'accès comportent un poste d'identification d'utilisateur et sont typiquement couplés aux dispositifs de rétention
  • les différents modules ont sensiblement les mêmes dimensions extérieures
According to particular features of the invention:
  • the receptacles for receiving receptacles are arranged in a rack on at least one wall of the module
  • the racks are arranged on at least one interior wall, typically lateral, of the module, the modules being typically assembled together by their front faces
  • at least said side wall is provided with ventilation openings
  • the installation comprises a box module equipped with means for controlling access to the interior volume of the assembled modules
  • the access control means comprise a user identification station and are typically coupled to the retention devices
  • the different modules have substantially the same external dimensions

La présente invention sera mieux comprise au vu de la description suivante de modes de réalisation, donnés à titre illustratif mais nullement limitatif, faite en relation avec les dessins annexés, sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective d'une installation selon l'invention constituée par l'assemblage d'un module de caisson de commande d'accès et de deux modules de caisson de stockage de récipients; et
  • la figure 2 est une vue schématique de l'intérieur d'un module de stockage de bouteilles de gaz montrant les dispositifs de rétention de ces dernières
The present invention will be better understood in the light of the following description of embodiments, given by way of illustration but in no way limiting, made in relation to the appended drawings, in which:
  • Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of an installation according to the invention constituted by the assembly of an access control box module and two modules of container storage box; and
  • Figure 2 is a schematic view of the interior of a gas cylinder storage module showing the retention devices thereof

L'installation autonome représentée schématiquement à titre d'exemple sur la figure 1 est constituée de l'assemblage de trois modules, en l'occurrence un module d'accès 1A et deux modules de stockage 1B, 1C.The standalone installation shown schematically as an example in Figure 1 consists of the assembly of three modules, in this case an access module 1A and two storage modules 1B, 1C.

Selon un aspect de l'invention, comme on le voit mieux sur la figure 2, les différents modules 1 sont de mêmes dimensions et interchangeables, et comportent, de façon standard, un plancher 2, un toit 3 et deux parois latérales 4 définissant avec le plancher et le toit un volume intérieur de module, les parois latérales étant typiquement pourvues en haut et en bas de passages de ventilation 5, constituées typiquement d'ouvertures grillagées. Comme on le voit sur la figure 2, les modules sont agencés pour comporter au moins une face frontale ouverte, seuls les modules d'extrémités étant munis de parois frontales, celle du caisson de contrôle d'accès étant pourvue d'une porte à fermeture électro-magnétique 6 et à ouverture de sécurité intérieure donnant accès aux utilisateurs au volume interne des caissons. Chaque module 1 comporte, dans son plancher 2, des ouvertures 7 de passage de fourches de chariots élévateurs et, avantageusement, sur son plafond 3, des anneaux 8 de levage.According to one aspect of the invention, as can be seen better in FIG. 2, the different modules 1 are of the same dimensions and interchangeable, and have, as standard, a floor 2, a roof 3 and two side walls 4 defining with the floor and the roof an interior volume of the module, the side walls being typically provided at the top and bottom with passageways ventilation 5, typically consisting of screened openings. As we seen in Figure 2, the modules are arranged to include at least one open front face, only the end modules being provided with walls front, that of the access control box being provided with a door electro-magnetic closure 6 and internal security opening giving user access to the internal volume of the boxes. Each module 1 comprises, in its floor 2, openings 7 for the passage of forks forklifts and, advantageously, on its ceiling 3, rings 8 of lifting.

Comme on le comprendra, l'installation peut être aisément disposée en tout endroit, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur, au plus près des zones de travail et déplaçable pour suivre ces dernières. Bien qu'aménageable sur site, en plein air, elle protège efficacement les bouteilles et les utilisateurs des intempéries.As will be understood, the installation can be easily arranged in any place, inside or outside, as close as possible to work areas and movable to follow them. Although it can be converted on site, outdoor, it effectively protects bottles and users from severe weather.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 1, le module d'accès 1A comporte sur sa face frontale, à côté de la porte 6, un terminal 8 d'identification et de contrôle d'accès incluant en particulier un clavier 9, un écran vidéo 10, une fente 11 d'introduction de carte d'identification et une fente 12 de délivrance d'une fiche de transaction. Le module d'accès 1A comporte une entrée 13 d'amenée de courant électrique pour l'ensemble de l'installation et est pourvu de moyens, filaires ou hertziens 14, de liaison à distance avec une centrale de gestion des flux de récipients dans la zone de chalandise. L'accès au volume intérieur des caissons, pour faciliter l'introduction et l'enlèvement des récipients, comporte avantageusement une rampe métallique 15 reliée au plancher du caisson d'accès 1A.As seen in Figure 1, the access module 1A has on its front side, next to door 6, an identification and control terminal 8 access including in particular a keyboard 9, a video screen 10, a slot 11 introduction of an identification card and a slot 12 for issuing a card transaction. The access module 1A has an inlet 13 for supplying electric current for the entire installation and is provided with means, wired or wireless 14, remote connection with a central management of container flow in the catchment area. Access to the interior volume of boxes, to facilitate the introduction and removal of containers, includes advantageously a metal ramp 15 connected to the floor of the box access 1A.

Dans le mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 2, chaque module de stockage 1B, 1C ... est conçu pour ménager 2 x 3 emplacements de bouteilles de gaz 50 type B50 disposées en râteliers le long des faces internes des parois latérales 4 par groupes de 3 en vis-à-vis. Chaque emplacement de réception comporte un dispositif de rétention avec un capot basculable et sélectivement verrouillable en configuration fermée 16 du type décrit dans le document EP-A-939 271, au nom de la demanderesse. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, la bouteille de gaz 50 est posée sur une embase dièdrique 17 montée sur ou intégrée dans le plancher 2 et reçue inclinée dans un berceau 18 à ouverture latérale en C ou en V, montée sur la paroi latérale 4 du caisson de stockage, du type faisant l'objet de la demande de brevet déposée par la demanderesse ce même jour sous le titre "Structure de support et de positionnement individuel de bouteille de gaz". Dans ce mode de réalisation, le capot 16, venant, en position abaissée, recouvrir le chapeau de la bouteille 50 et enclore une zone supérieure du corps de la bouteille, comporte un pêne 19 venant se loger dans une serrure électromagnétique 20 portée par l'arceau 18. La paroi supérieure des capots 16 est munie d'orifices de ventilation 21 et l'extrémité avant des capots 16 comporte un témoin lumineux 22 relié à l'unité de gestion des récipients associée au terminal 8 identifiant les emplacements avec des bouteilles vides ou pleines selon la couleur du témoin. Pour les bouteilles 20 munies d'une puce d'identification et de suivi, une antenne hyperfréquence est avantageusement disposée dans le capot 16, réalisé typiquement en matériaux plastiques. Les ressorts à gaz de soulèvement des capots 16 ne sont pas représentés sur la figure.In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, each module storage 1B, 1C ... is designed to provide 2 x 3 storage spaces gas bottles 50 type B50 arranged in racks along the internal faces side walls 4 in groups of 3 facing each other. Each location of reception includes a retention device with a tiltable cover and selectively lockable in closed configuration 16 of the type described in the document EP-A-939 271, in the name of the applicant.
