Description

La présente invention est relative à un objet décoratif et à son procédé de fabrication.The present invention relates to a decorative object and its manufacturing process.

Par objets décoratifs il faut entendre, suivant la présente invention, des objets à effet purement esthétique, comme des statues, des hauts-reliefs et des objets analogues, ainsi que des objets à effet esthétique ayant une fonction technique, comme par exemple des éléments de construction, tels que des parois, des murs, des plafonds, des voûtes, et éléments analogues, ou encore des éléments d'ameublement, comme des sièges, des divans, etc...By decorative objects is meant, according to this invention, objects with a purely aesthetic effect, such as statues, high reliefs and the like, as well as effect objects aesthetic with a technical function, such as for example construction elements, such as walls, walls, ceilings, arches, and the like, or elements furniture, such as seats, couches, etc ...

Il est connu de façonner des matériaux par la taille, le moulage ou d'autres procédés pour leur donner une forme à effet décoratif ou esthétique. Il est aussi connu, pour réaliser de tels objets, de soutenir le matériau dont est fait l'objet par une ossature interne, invisible ou uniquement partiellement visible de l'extérieur.It is known to shape materials by size, molding or other processes to give them a decorative effect or aesthetic. It is also known, to make such objects, to support the material of which an internal framework, invisible or only partially visible from the outside.

Lors de la réalisation d'objets de grandes dimensions, l'artiste ou le décorateur voit ses possibilités d'imagination limitées par le poids de l'objet et les nécessités de transport.When making large objects, the artist or the decorator sees his possibilities of imagination limited by the weight of object and transport requirements.

Il est aussi connu de réaliser des objets décoratifs, tels que des sculptures, par une simple ossature, par exemple métallique, l'observateur pouvant, s'il le souhaite, recomposer par l'imagination le corps complet de l'objet représenté.It is also known to make decorative objects, such as sculptures, by a simple framework, for example metallic, the observer can, if he wishes, recompose by imagination the complete body of the object represented.

La présente invention a pour but de prévoir des objets décoratifs de conception nouvelle et donc à effet esthétique inattendu, tout en permettant une fabrication simple, peu coûteuse, et souvent relativement rapide de l'objet, même dans le cas d'objets lourds et de grandes dimensions. Avantageusement, la présente invention prévoit également la réalisation d'objets identiques d'une manière répétitive, éventuellement à l'échelle industrielle.The object of the present invention is to provide decorative objects new design and therefore unexpected aesthetic effect, while allowing simple, inexpensive and often relatively fast of the object, even in the case of heavy objects and large dimensions. Advantageously, the present invention provides also making identical objects repeatedly, possibly on an industrial scale.

On résout ce problème suivant l'invention par un objet décoratif, comprenant une ossature de support délimitant un volume interne et présentant des ajours, et des blocs de matière de remplissage en blocs remplissant au moins partiellement le volume interne, les blocs et l'ossature étant simultanément visibles de l'extérieur.This problem is solved according to the invention with a decorative object, comprising a support frame defining an internal volume and having openings, and blocks of filling material into blocks at least partially filling the internal volume, the blocks and the frame being simultaneously visible from the outside.

L'ossature de support de l'objet est donc, dans ce cas, externe et est visible de l'extérieur, c'est-à-dire qu'elle participe à l'effet décoratif. D'autre part, le corps de l'objet est formé de blocs individuels, qui ne tiennent pas l'un à l'autre et qui sont donc aisément manipulables et transportables. Par le fait des ajours dans l'ossature, les blocs de la matière de remplissage participent eux aussi à l'effet décoratif. Cela permet de jouer sur deux matières différentes, l'ossature et les blocs, par des effets de contraste ou de mariages de couleurs par exemple.The support frame of the object is therefore, in this case, external and is visible from the outside, i.e. it contributes to the effect decorative. On the other hand, the body of the object is formed of individual blocks, which do not hold together and which are therefore easily manipulable and transportable. By the fact of the openings in the frame, the blocks of the filling material also participate in the effect decorative. This allows you to play on two different materials, the frame and the blocks, by contrast effects or marriages of colors by example.

Suivant une forme de réalisation particulière de l'invention, l'ossature de support est formée d'éléments en forme de tiges reliés l'un à l'autre de manière à retenir les blocs de la matière de remplissage au moins partiellement dans le volume interne et à permettre une vision totale des blocs depuis l'extérieur. L'ossature peut ainsi présenter des ajours de grande surface par rapport à des tiges de retenue à section fine, ce qui permet une vision quasiment totale des blocs de remplissage depuis l'extérieur. Si les blocs sont eux-mêmes constitués de blocs décoratifs en soi, l'effet obtenu peut être surprenant.According to a particular embodiment of the invention, the support frame is made up of connected rod-shaped elements to each other so as to retain the blocks of the matter of filling at least partially in the internal volume and at allow a total vision of the blocks from the outside. The frame can thus present openings of large surface compared to rods of retained in fine section, which allows an almost total vision of filling blocks from the outside. If the blocks are themselves made up of decorative blocks per se, the effect obtained can be surprising.

D'autre part, avantageusement les éléments en forme de tige sont suivant l'invention façonnables de manière à épouser étroitement la forme du ou des blocs retenus par eux. L'ossature peut aussi être appliquée étroitement sur les blocs tout en laissant certains d'entre eux dépasser hors de l'ossature et imposer aux blocs de remplissage une forme générale dans laquelle ils sont retenus. Avantageusement, dans certains cas, certains blocs sont supportés individuellement par l'ossature de support, sans appui nécessairement sur d'autres blocs.On the other hand, advantageously the rod-shaped elements according to the invention can be shaped so as to closely match the shape of the block (s) retained by them. The framework can also be applied tightly on the blocks while leaving some of them protrude outside the framework and impose on the filling blocks a general form in which they are retained. Advantageously, in some cases, some blocks are supported individually by the support frame, without necessarily pressing on other blocks.

Comme matières pour les blocs, on peut envisager entre autres des blocs en pierre, en matière synthétique, en métal, en verre, en bois, etc... En fonction de l'effet désiré, les blocs peuvent être en une seule et même matière ou être en matières différentes. Leurs couleurs peuvent être identiques ou différentes. Les blocs peuvent être isolément pesants, comme les blocs en pierre par exemple, ou légers, comme des blocs de matière synthétique expansée. Les blocs peuvent avoir une forme identique ou différente, ils peuvent avoir une forme régulière ou irrégulière.As materials for the blocks, one can consider among other things blocks of stone, synthetic material, metal, glass, wood, etc ... Depending on the desired effect, the blocks can be in one single and same material or be in different materials. Their colors may be the same or different. Blocks can be individually heavy, like stone blocks for example, or light, like blocks of expanded synthetic material. Blocks can have the same or different shape, they can have a shape regular or irregular.

Suivant une forme avantageuse de réalisation de l'invention, l'ossature de support est en une matière rigide qui ne se déforme pas sous le poids des blocs de matière de remplissage. C'est donc l'ossature qui donne la forme générale de base à l'objet, et les blocs par leur poids ne provoquent pas d'infléchissement même partiel du volume interne formé par l'ossature.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the support frame is made of a rigid material which does not deform under the weight of the filler blocks. It is therefore the framework that gives the basic general shape to the object, and the blocks by their weight do not cause even partial deflection of the internal volume formed by the framework.

Comme éléments d'ossature, on peut par exemple prévoir des tiges en métal, en particulier en acier inoxydable, en laiton, en cuivre, etc..., en bois, en matière synthétique rigide, en verre, etc... L'acier inoxydable est préféré étant donné sa grande facilité de déformation à chaud et le soudage particulièrement aisé par exemple de tiges d'acier préalablement déformées d'une manière adaptée aux blocs à supporter. L'acier inoxydable présente en outre le grand avantage d'une bonne résistance aux intempéries.As framework elements, one can for example provide metal rods, in particular stainless steel, brass, copper, etc ..., wood, rigid synthetic material, glass, etc ... Steel stainless is preferred given its great ease of deformation at hot and particularly easy welding, for example of steel rods previously deformed in a manner suitable for blocks to support. Stainless steel also has the great advantage good weather resistance.

D'autres formes de réalisation d'objets décoratifs suivant l'invention sont indiquées dans les revendications annexées, ainsi que leur procédé de fabrication. Other embodiments of decorative objects according to the invention is indicated in the appended claims, as well as their manufacturing process.

D'autres détails et particularités de l'invention ressortiront de la description donnée ci-après, avec référence aux dessins annexés, de quelques exemples de réalisation non limitatifs.Other details and particularities of the invention will emerge from the description given below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, of some examples of non-limiting embodiments.

La figure 1 représente une forme de réalisation d'un objet décoratif suivant l'invention.Figure 1 shows an embodiment of an object decorative according to the invention.

Les figures 2 et 3 représentent les étapes d'un procédé de fabrication d'un objet décoratif suivant l'invention.Figures 2 and 3 show the steps of a method of manufacture of a decorative object according to the invention.

Sur les différents dessins, les éléments identiques ou analogues sont désignés par les mêmes références.In the various drawings, identical or analogous elements are designated by the same references.

Sur la figure 1, on a représenté un objet décoratif de type statue, qui est de grandes dimensions, environ 2 m de haut sur 1 m de large. Comme on peut le voir, cette statue représente un animal, le kangourou. L'ossature de support 1 est formée de tiges 2 qui, dans l'exemple illustré, sont en acier inoxydable. Ces tiges 2 sont soudées l'une à l'autre par exemple en 3 de manière à former un squelette externe visible de l'extérieur, et délimitant un volume interne. Dans certains cas, quelques tiges peuvent former des traverses 4, qui passent à travers le volume interne et sont soudées à des tiges 2 formant l'ossature de support, pour rigidifier davantage la forme de l'ossature de support.In FIG. 1, a decorative object of the statue type has been represented, which is large, about 2 m high by 1 m wide. As we can see, this statue represents an animal, the kangaroo. The support frame 1 is formed of rods 2 which, in the example illustrated, are made of stainless steel. These rods 2 are welded to each other for example in 3 so as to form a skeleton external visible from the outside, and delimiting an internal volume. In in some cases, a few rods can form crosspieces 4, which pass through the internal volume and are welded to rods 2 forming the support frame, to further stiffen the shape of the support frame.

A l'intérieur de cette ossature 1 sont supportés des blocs 5 d'une matière de remplissage, qui dans le cas présent est en pierre. Les pierres sont choisies en fonction de leur forme, de leur couleur et de leurs dimensions. On peut par exemple prévoir l'emploi de pierres bleues, de tuffeau, de pierre de France, de marbre, de grès, etc... et éventuellement les mélanger.Inside this framework 1 are supported blocks 5 of a filling material, which in this case is stone. The stones are chosen according to their shape, color and their dimensions. We can for example foresee the use of stones blue, tuffeau, French stone, marble, sandstone, etc ... and if necessary mix them.

Comme on peut le constater, si certains blocs sont complètement emprisonnés dans le volume interne formé par l'ossature de support 1, comme par exemple le bloc 6, d'autres blocs, par exemple le bloc 7 est agencé de manière à faire partiellement saillie en dehors de l'ossature. L'ossature de support a donc une fonction de soutien et de retenue des blocs, ainsi qu'une fonction décorative en soi, mais pas celle de délimiter un volume que les blocs de remplissage ne peuvent pas dépasser. Au contraire, certains blocs sont supportés et retenus quasiment isolément par l'ossature de support de façon à ce que la plus grande part de leur volume propre soit en dehors du volume interne délimité par l'ossature, comme par exemple les blocs 8 et 9. Cette disposition mutuelle entre l'ossature et les blocs permet une très grande souplesse dans l'effet décoratif ou esthétique que l'on peut obtenir.As we can see, if certain blocks are completely trapped in the internal volume formed by the framework support 1, such as block 6, other blocks, for example example block 7 is arranged so as to partially project in outside the frame. The support frame therefore has a function of block support and restraint, as well as a decorative function in itself, but not that of delimiting a volume that the filling blocks do not cannot exceed. On the contrary, some blocks are supported and retained almost in isolation by the support frame so that that most of their own volume is outside the volume internal delimited by the framework, such as for example blocks 8 and 9. This mutual arrangement between the frame and the blocks allows a very great flexibility in the decorative or aesthetic effect that can be get.

Comme on peut le remarquer, les tiges 2 sont de faible section, de l'ordre du cm, alors que les ajours réalisés entre elles ont des côtés plutôt de l'ordre du dm ou davantage. Cela permet une vision quasiment complète des blocs à l'intérieur de l'ossature. Les tiges sont façonnées de manière à épouser la forme des blocs qu'elles retiennent, et leur rigidité est suffisante pour ne pas être déformées par le poids des blocs qu'elles supportent.As can be noticed, the rods 2 are of small section, of the order of cm, while the openings made between them have sides rather on the order of dm or more. This allows a vision almost complete blocks inside the frame. The stems are shaped to match the shape of the blocks they hold, and their rigidity is sufficient not to be deformed by the weight blocks they support.

Pour construire une telle statue, on peut procéder de la manière suivante. Les blocs de base 10 de la statue sont posés par terre, et ils sont enveloppés partiellement par des tiges en acier. Celles-ci sont déformées à la chaleur de manière à épouser la forme des blocs de base et ainsi à les envelopper. Ces tiges sont ensuite soudées l'une à l'autre de manière à former un début d'ossature. Ensuite des blocs sont empilés sur les blocs de base et sont à leur tour enveloppés de tiges qui, après conformation éventuelle aux blocs adjacents, sont soudées au début d'ossature déjà existant, et ainsi de suite.To build such a statue, one can proceed in the manner next. The base 10 blocks of the statue are placed on the ground, and they are partially wrapped by steel rods. These are heat-deformed to match the shape of the blocks of base and thus to wrap them. These rods are then welded one to the other so as to form the beginning of a framework. Then blocks are stacked on the base blocks and are in turn wrapped in rods which, after possible conformation to the adjacent blocks, are welded at the start of an already existing framework, and so on.

Sur les figures 2 et 3, on a représenté les différentes étapes de construction d'un mur muni d'une baie voûtée.Figures 2 and 3 show the different stages of construction of a wall with an arched bay.

La première étape consiste à réaliser une ossature de support 19 préfabriquée, formée de plusieurs parties assemblables par la suite. The first step is to make a support frame 19 prefabricated, formed of several parts which can then be assembled.

Dans l'exemple illustré, l'ossature 19 comprend deux parties, une première partie en forme de réceptacle 11 qui ici est constitué de barres longitudinales 12, de barres latérales 13, et de barres arquées 14, ainsi que de barres transversales 15, formant ensemble un cadre. Les barres des cadres sont reliées par un entrelacs de tiges 16 de formes variées, qui présentent entre elles des ajours 20. Les barres et les tiges sont dans l'exemple illustré en une matière synthétique qui a été moulée dans la forme représentée.In the example illustrated, the framework 19 comprises two parts, a first part in the form of a receptacle 11 which here consists of longitudinal bars 12, side bars 13, and arched bars 14, as well as transverse bars 15, together forming a frame. The bars of the frames are connected by an interlacing of rods 16 of various forms, which have openwork between them 20. The bars and the rods are in the example illustrated in a synthetic material which has been molded into the shape shown.

On peut bien entendu prévoir que ce réceptacle 11 soit lui-même formé de plusieurs parties, par exemple que chaque côté du réceptacle soit préfabriqué indépendamment et que les côtés soient assemblés par des moyens courants sur place.We can of course provide that this receptacle 11 is itself formed of several parts, for example that each side of the receptacle be prefabricated independently and the sides are assembled by current means on site.

Une fois que le réceptacle est mis en place, il peut être rempli de blocs, dans l'exemple illustré de blocs 17 de verre ou de matière vitreuse aux formes disparates. On ferme ensuite le réceptacle par la deuxième partie de l'ossature, par un couvercle 18, représenté uniquement de manière brisée sur la figure 3. On relie alors le couvercle 18 au réceptacle 11 par tout moyen connu approprié. Les fixations entre les différentes parties du réceptacle ou entre les différentes tiges de la statue de l'exemple illustré sur la figure 1 peuvent se faire aussi par d'autres moyens que le soudage, et on peut envisager par exemple un brasage, un nouage quand les tiges sont en matière souple, comme du laiton ou du cuivre, un boulonnage, et tout autre procédé connu analogue.Once the receptacle is in place, it can be filled with blocks, in the illustrated example of blocks 17 of glass or material glassy with disparate forms. Then close the receptacle by the second part of the framework, by a cover 18, shown only brokenly in Figure 3. We then connect the cover 18 to receptacle 11 by any suitable known means. The fasteners between the different parts of the receptacle or between the different rods of the statue of the example illustrated in Figure 1 can also by other means than welding, and we can consider for example brazing, knotting when the stems are in flexible material, such as brass or copper, bolting, and all another similar known process.

Il doit être entendu que la présente invention n'est en aucune façon limitée aux formes de réalisation décrites ci-dessus et que bien des modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir du cadre des revendications annexées.It should be understood that the present invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described above and that well modifications can be made without departing from the appended claims.

On peut par exemple envisager d'introduire dans l'ossature un objet creux non visible de l'extérieur pour alléger l'objet décoratif formé.One can for example consider introducing into the framework a hollow object not visible from the outside to lighten the decorative object formed.
