Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne des couteaux pliants à main, munis ou non de crans d'arrêt.The invention relates to hand folding knives, whether or not provided with catch notches.
On connaít de nombreuses réalisations de tels couteaux (voir e.g. WO-A-99/58302), mais leur utilisation dans certains domaines d'activité, exige que ceux-ci soient solidaires de leur utilisateur par l'intermédiaire d'un lien adéquat; c'est le cas en particulier du domaine de l'escalade, de la spéléologie, de la pêche en mer, des sports nautiques et aériens, etc...Dans d'autres circonstances, ils doivent être fixés ou attachés à un support fixe, par exemple, pour la présentation, éventuellement anti-vol , sur un étalage.We know many achievements of such knives (see e.g. WO-A-99/58302), but their use in certain fields of activity, requires that they be united with their user through an adequate link; this is particularly the case for rock climbing, caving, sea fishing, water and air sports, etc ... In other circumstances, they must be fixed or attached to a support fixed, for example, for presentation, possibly anti-theft, on a display.
Certes, il suffit de percer un trou dans le manche desdits couteaux pour satisfaire à cette exigence ; mais ce trou qui doit être de dimension suffisante pour le passage du lien (par exemple un mousqueton d'alpinisme) doit être placé sur une surlongueur du manche pour ne pas gêner la fermeture complète de la lame et doit être d'un diamètre sensiblement inférieur à la plus grande dimension transversale dudit manche. L'invention se propose de résoudre cette difficulté sans augmenter l'encombrement longitudinal du couteau.Certainly, it suffices to drill a hole in the handle of said knives to satisfy this requirement; but this hole which must be of sufficient size for the passage of the link (for example a mountaineering carabiner) must be placed on a extra length of the handle so as not to hinder the complete closing of the blade and must be of a diameter substantially less than the largest transverse dimension of said sleeve. The invention proposes to resolve this difficulty without increasing the longitudinal size of the knife.
Dans la description suivante, nous désignerons par :
- plan longitudinal du couteau : un plan parallèle au plan médian de la lame.
- direction longitudinale du couteau : une direction parallèle au plan longitudinal allant sensiblement de l'extrémité libre du manche à l'extrémité libre de la lame, le couteau étant en position ouverte.
- longitudinal plane of the knife: a plane parallel to the median plane of the blade.
- longitudinal direction of the knife: a direction parallel to the longitudinal plane going substantially from the free end of the handle to the free end of the blade, the knife being in the open position.
Un couteau selon l'invention est donc essentiellement constitué d'un manche et d'une lame articulée autour d'un axe de rotation . Cette articulation est constituée par une douille creuse dont l'ouverture axiale d'axe perpendiculaire au plan longitudinal du couteau, et dont la dimension est adaptée à l'encombrement du lien ou de la fixation utilisée, traverse le manche de part en part, et est solidaire en rotation de la lame du couteau. Cette ouverture peut être de forme cylindrique, mais de préférence, elle aura une forme évasée vers l'extérieur par exemple, en forme de demi-tore. Cette forme permet une introduction plus aisée du lien ou s'adapte mieux à la courbure de la fixation (anse de cadenas, mousquetons d'alpinisme).A knife according to the invention therefore essentially consists of a handle and of a blade articulated around an axis of rotation. This articulation is constituted by a hollow socket whose axial opening with an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal plane knife, and whose size is adapted to the size of the link or fixing used, crosses the handle from side to side, and is integral in rotation with the knife blade. This opening may be cylindrical in shape, but of preferably, it will have a flared shape towards the outside for example, in the shape of half torus. This form allows an easier introduction of the link or adapts better at the curvature of the binding (padlock handle, mountaineering carabiners).
Cette douille est généralement solidaire en rotation d'au moins un moyen de manoeuvre, extérieur au manche, et permettant l'ouverture et la fermeture de la lame.This socket is generally integral in rotation with at least one means of operation, outside the handle, and allowing the opening and closing of the blade.
Ce moyen de manoeuvre est constitué, par exemple, d'une ou de deux molettes circulaires. La molette est striée extérieurement et / ou présente des reliefs extérieurs, pour être facilement actionnée d'une seule main avec le pouce ou un autre doigt.This operating means consists, for example, of one or two rollers circular. The wheel is externally striated and / or has reliefs to be easily operated with one hand with the thumb or a other finger.
Le cran d'arrêt est constitué par au moins une languette élastique, dont une des extrémités est solidaire du manche du couteau, et dont l'autre extrémité, libre, s'engage par effet ressort, dans un logement adéquat de l'ensemble douille molette lors de l'ouverture complète de la lame. Cette ouverture complète est déterminée par l'appui du talon de la lame sur une butée placée dans le manche du couteau.The locking catch consists of at least one elastic tongue, one of the ends is integral with the handle of the knife, and the other end, free, engages by spring effect, in an adequate housing of the socket assembly wheel when the blade is fully opened. This full opening is determined by the support of the heel of the blade on a stop placed in the handle of the knife.
La languette est soit élastique, soit rigide et articulée à leur base autour d'un axe de rotation sensiblement parallèle au plan longitudinal du couteau, et soumise à Faction d'un dispositif élastique (ressort, élastomère, etc.) agissant vers l'extérieur. The tongue is either elastic or rigid and articulated at their base around an axis of rotation substantially parallel to the longitudinal plane of the knife, and subject to the action an elastic device (spring, elastomer, etc.) acting outwards.
La languette présente, dans leur partie active, une forme plate et allongée ; la longueur de la languette est disposée soit dans une direction sensiblement radiale, soit dans une direction sensiblement tangentielle par rapport au mouvement de rotation de la lame sur le manche.The tongue has, in their active part, a flat and elongated shape; the length of the tongue is arranged either in a substantially radial direction, either in a direction substantially tangential to the movement of blade rotation on the handle.
Le logement situé dans l'ensemble douille-molette présente en coupe parallèle à l'axe de rotation, et dans une direction tangentielle par rapport au mouvement de rotation, la forme d'un prisme droit de section trapézoïdale dont la grande base est dirigée vers l'extrémité de la languette, et dont le plan d'appui sur celle-ci présente une inclinaison de 8° à 12° par rapport à l'axe de rotation.The housing located in the sleeve-wheel assembly presents in section parallel to the axis of rotation, and in a tangential direction with respect to the movement of rotation, the shape of a right prism of trapezoidal section whose large base is directed towards the end of the tongue, and the bearing plane on which presents an inclination of 8 ° to 12 ° relative to the axis of rotation.
Cette disposition permet, en position ouverte du couteau de bloquer la lame et de compenser les jeux mécaniques, dûs aux tolérances d'usinage et de montage initial et / ou à l'usure en service des pièces mobiles. Les plans d'appui de l'extrémité des languettes présentent de préférence, la même inclinaison.This arrangement allows, in the open position of the knife to block the blade and compensate for mechanical play due to machining and initial assembly tolerances and / or wear and tear in service of moving parts. End support planes tongues preferably have the same inclination.
L'effet ressort des languettes, s'exerce de l'intérieur vers l'extérieur, le logement d'extrémité étant de préférence situé sur la face interne de la molette parallèle au plan longitudinal du couteau.The effect comes out of the tabs, is exerted from the inside to the outside, the housing end being preferably located on the inner face of the wheel parallel to the longitudinal plane of the knife.
Pour le déblocage du cran d'arrêt et la fermeture de la lame, un ou deux boutons - poussoirs peuvent être prévu(s) dans le manche, pour repousser la languette vers l'extérieur, et permettre ainsi la rotation de l'ensemble lame - douille - molette par rapport au manche.For unlocking the stopper and closing the blade, one or two buttons - pushers can be provided in the handle, to push the tab towards the outside, and thus allow the rotation of the blade - socket - wheel assembly by report to the handle.
Il est à noter que la languette peut également être utilisée, la lame du couteau étant en position fermée, pour créer un frottement dur, évitant l'ouverture accidentelle de la lame. Dans ce cas, un logement, en forme de prisme trapézoïdal, analogue à celui du cran d'arrêt, est également pratiqué dans l'ensemble douille-molette, mais dont l'inclinaison est de 45° à 80° afin de permettre l'écartement vers l'intérieur de la languette sous un faible effort d'ouverture de la lame exercé sur la molette ou la lame. It should be noted that the tongue can also be used, the blade of the knife being in the closed position, to create hard friction, preventing accidental opening of the blade. In this case, a housing, in the form of a trapezoidal prism, similar to that of the catch, is also practiced in the sleeve-wheel assembly, but whose inclination is from 45 ° to 80 ° in order to allow the separation towards the interior of the tongue under a weak force of opening of the blade exerted on the wheel or the blade.

Dans toutes les figures, la flèche curviligne indique le sens de fermeture du couteau.In all the figures, the curvilinear arrow indicates the direction in which the knife is closed.
Un couteau selon l'invention se compose d'une lame (1) et d'un manche (2) mobile en rotation et à frottement doux, l'un par rapport à l'autre, autour d'un axe perpendiculaire au plan longitudinal (4) du couteau. La lame (1) est affûtée sur l'un des côtés (5) et présente un bord non tranchant (6) sur l'autre.A knife according to the invention consists of a blade (1) and a movable handle (2) in rotation and with gentle friction, one with respect to the other, around an axis perpendicular to the longitudinal plane (4) of the knife. The blade (1) is sharpened on one sides (5) and has a non-sharp edge (6) on the other.
Le manche est constitué d'une entretoise (7), de deux platines (8) en tôle d'acier et d'une garniture (9) en bois, corne, matière plastique ou caoutchoutée, etc. maintenus par des rivets (10).The handle consists of a spacer (7), two plates (8) made of sheet steel and a trim (9) made of wood, horn, plastic or rubberized material, etc. held in place by rivets (10).
L'articulation entre le manche (2) et la lame (1) étant constituée par une douille en acier (11) ayant en son milieu un pourtour hexagonal (12) perpendiculaire à l'axe (3) qui s'encastre dans une ouverture hexagonale de la lame (1) du couteau.The articulation between the handle (2) and the blade (1) being constituted by a bush in steel (11) having in its center a hexagonal periphery (12) perpendicular to the axis (3) which fits into a hexagonal opening in the blade (1) of the knife.
Cette douille (11) est percée selon l'axe (3) d'un trou circulaire (13), et est liée à deux molettes (14) en acier, cette liaison est réalisée par tout moyen connu tel que la soudure, le collage, le sertissage, le frettage, etc. La soudure (15) peut être effectuée à l'aide d'un rayon laser.This sleeve (11) is pierced along the axis (3) with a circular hole (13), and is linked to two steel knobs (14), this connection is made by any known means such as soldering, gluing, crimping, shrinking, etc. The weld (15) can be performed using a laser beam.
Dans la platine (8) celle du haut de la figure 3 est découpée par exemple au laser, une languette (16) suivant deux sillons (17) ; celle-ci est' fléchie vers l'extérieur du couteau et usiné à son extrémité libre, comme indiqué à la figure 5, suivant deux plans inclinés (18) faisant un angle avec l'axe (3) de 10°.In the plate (8) that at the top of FIG. 3 is cut for example by laser, a tongue (16) in two grooves (17); this is' bent outward from the knife and machined at its free end, as shown in figure 5, following two inclined planes (18) making an angle with the axis (3) of 10 °.
Cette languette (16) comme la platine (8) sont constituées d'un acier traité après mise en forme et usinage, pour lui conférer l'élasticité requise.This tongue (16) as the plate (8) are made of a steel treated after shaping and machining, to give it the required elasticity.
La surface interne (14') de la molette (14) comporte un logement prismatique trapézoïdale, dont les génératrices sont sensiblement parallèles à la direction longitudinale du couteau (20), et dont les flans font un angle de 10° avec l'axe (3).The internal surface (14 ') of the wheel (14) has a prismatic housing trapezoidal, whose generatrices are substantially parallel to the direction longitudinal of the knife (20), and whose blanks make an angle of 10 ° with the axis (3).
Lors de l'ouverture complète de la lame (1), le talon (21) de celle-ci vient en butée sur l'extrémité (7') de l'entretoise (7), et l'extrémité libre de la languette (16) s'engage dans le logement (19) de la molette (14) immobilisant la lame dans cette position et exerçant une force (F), qui compense les jeux éventuels de l'articulation.When the blade (1) is fully opened, the heel (21) of the latter comes into abutment on the end (7 ') of the spacer (7), and the free end of the tongue (16) engages in the housing (19) of the wheel (14) immobilizing the blade in this position and exerting a force (F), which compensates for any play in the joint.
Le dispositif est complété par un bouton-poussoir (22) solidaire du manche (2) qui, par pression vers l'intérieur dégage l'extrémité libre de la languette (16) du logement (19) de la molette (14), ce qui débloque la lame et permet la fermeture du couteau dans le sens de la flèche curviligne.The device is completed by a push button (22) integral with the handle (2) which, by pressing inwards releases the free end of the tongue (16) from the housing (19) of the wheel (14), which unlocks the blade and allows closing knife in the direction of the curved arrow.
L'exemple se réfère au cas d'une seule languette (16), mais le couteau peut comporter deux languettes, chacune située dans l'une des platines (8), la libération du cran d'arrêt nécessitant alors une double action dans des sens opposés sur les deux boutons-poussoirs.The example refers to the case of a single tongue (16), but the knife can have two tabs, each located in one of the plates (8), the release of the stopper then requiring a double action in opposite directions on the two push buttons.
Cette disposition assure une sécurité renforcée contre la libération involontaire ou accidentelle du cran d'arrêt. This provision provides enhanced security against involuntary release or accidental notch.
La figure 6 représente une variante du cran d'arrêt. Dans ce cas, la languette élastique (16) est rapportée à l'intérieur du manche (2) et y est fixée, à sa base, par exemple par deux rivets (23). La languette (16) est disposée tangentiellement par rapport au mouvement de la lame et son extrémité libre (24), usinée en biseau avec un angle de 10°, et s'engage dans le logement (19) de la molette (14).Figure 6 shows a variant of the stopper. In this case, the tongue elastic (16) is attached to the inside of the handle (2) and is fixed there, at its base, for example by two rivets (23). The tongue (16) is arranged tangentially relative to the movement of the blade and its free end (24), machined at a bevel with an angle of 10 °, and engages in the housing (19) of the thumb wheel (14).
L'extrémité libre (24) de la languette (16) est approximativement située sur un rayon passant par l'axe (3).The free end (24) of the tongue (16) is approximately located on a radius passing through the axis (3).
Le manche peut également être monobloc (figure 8) et être constitué de métal ou de matières plastiques, éventuellement renforcées de fibres courtes (verre, carbone) et obtenu par moulage, y compris la ou les languettes (16).The handle can also be in one piece (Figure 8) and be made of metal or plastics, possibly reinforced with short fibers (glass, carbon) and obtained by molding, including the tab (s) (16).
Dans ce cas, les languettes sont accessibles de l'extérieur du manche.In this case, the tabs are accessible from the outside of the handle.
Une simple pression locale, avec un doigt au voisinage de son extrémité libre, voisin de la molette, permet alors la libération du cran d'arrêt sans l'intermédiaire de boutons-poussoirs.A simple local pressure, with a finger near its free end, next to the wheel, then allows the release of the stop notch without the intermediary of push buttons.
Dans le cas de matières plastiques renforcées, et pour une meilleure élasticité de la languette, il est préférable que celle-ci soit renforcée par des fibres longues, disposées suivant sa longueur.In the case of reinforced plastics, and for better elasticity of the tongue, it is preferable that it is reinforced by long fibers, arranged along its length.
