Abstract

The artificial climbing hold includes a molded or cast body (1) having an opening (6) for a threaded fastener to pass through, and a reinforcing wire mesh or brace (2) incorporated in the body around the opening to retain the debris in the event of the body breaking. Independent claims are also included for the following: (a) a climbing wall; (b) and a method of making an artificial climbing hold.

Description

Domaine technique de l'inventionTechnical field of the invention

Les prises d'escalade amovibles sont destinées à l'entraînement et la pratique de l'escalade sur un mur, sur une surface artificielle d'escalade, ou sur un agrès individuel.
Toutes les prises amovibles connues sont fixées à leur support grâce à une vis mécanique. Un tel système de fixation à vis permet de déplacer, tourner, enlever ou changer la prise d'escalade.The removable climbing holds are intended for training and climbing on a wall, on an artificial climbing surface, or on an individual apparatus.
All removable plugs known are fixed to their support with a mechanical screw. Such a screw fixing system makes it possible to move, turn, remove or change climbing hold.

Les prises sont généralement réalisées à base de résine moulée, et la présence du trou de passage de la vis dans la zone médiane provoque néanmoins un affaiblissement de la résistance mécanique de la prise. Lors d'un serrage trop important de la vis, ou pendant l'exercice du grimpeur, ce type de prises peut casser. Les morceaux de la prise cassée risquent alors de tomber sur les personnes se trouvant à proximité du mur d'escalade.The taps are generally made based on molded resin, and the presence of the screw through hole in the central zone nevertheless causes a weakening of the mechanical strength of the plug. If the screw is tightened too much, or while the climber is exercising, this type of grip may break. Pieces of the broken plug may fall on people near the climbing wall.

Le document US 6 074 327 décrit une prise d'escalade, comprenant un fourreau de renforcement tubulaire traversant le trou de passage de la vis de fixation. La présence de ce fourreau ne permet néanmoins pas d'éviter la brisure de la prise en cas de serrage exagéré de la vis.
Le document DE 4423162 concerne une prise d'escalade ayant un corps en matière plastique en polyuréthane mélangée à du sable de quartz dans un rapport prédéterminé, permettant d'obtenir une couche superficielle élastique et déformable, laquelle permet de réduire les risques de blessures par égratignures lors de la préhension de la prise.The document US 6,074,327 discloses a climbing hold, comprising a tubular reinforcing sheath passing through the passage hole of the fastening screw. The presence of this sleeve, however, does not prevent the breakage of the plug in case of excessive tightening of the screw.
The document DE 4423162 relates to a climbing grip having a polyurethane plastic body mixed with quartz sand in a predetermined ratio, to obtain an elastic and deformable surface layer, which reduces the risk of scratch injury during gripping of the catch.

Objet de l'inventionObject of the invention

L'objet de l'invention à pour but de supprimer cet inconvénient, et de réaliser une prise d'escalade destinée à empêcher la chute des débris en cas de rupture.The object of the invention is to eliminate this disadvantage, and to achieve a climbing hold to prevent the fall of the debris in case of breakage.

Un autre objet de l'invention consiste à renforcer la résistance de rupture de la prise.Another object of the invention is to strengthen the breaking strength of the plug.

L'invention consiste à armer la prise à l'aide de moyens de sécurité incorporés dans le corps de la prise, et positionnés autour de l'orifice de passage de la vis pour retenir les débris en cas de rupture du corps.The invention consists in arming the socket with the aid of safety means incorporated in the body of the socket, and positioned around the orifice for the passage of the screw to retain the debris in case of rupture of the body.

Les moyens de sécurité peuvent être constitués d'un fil d'acier ou d'un fil de tout autre matériau, d'un grillage, d'un tissu ou de tout autre matériau souple ayant un effet ressort, et ne pouvant pas se rompre lors d'un pliage important. La structure de ces moyens de sécurité comporte avantageusement un trou dont le diamètre est au moins égal au diamètre de l'orifice du corps, et inférieur au diamètre de la tête de la vis de serrage.The security means may consist of a steel wire or a wire of any other material, mesh, fabric or other flexible material having a spring effect, and can not break during a major folding. The structure of these safety means advantageously comprises a hole whose diameter is at least equal to the diameter of the orifice of the body, and less than the diameter of the head of the clamping screw.

Lors de la rupture d'une prise d'escalade selon l'invention, les différentes parties de celle-ci restent attachées autour de la vis par l'armature, ce qui garantit la sécurité des personnes se trouvant au bas du mur d'escalade.When breaking a climbing jack according to the invention, the different parts thereof remain attached around the screw by the frame, which ensures the safety of people at the bottom of the climbing wall .

La présence des moyens de sécurité à l'intérieur du corps de la prise permet également de renforcer sa tenue mécanique.The presence of security means inside the body of the socket also strengthens its mechanical strength.

Description de l'inventionDescription of the invention

Le corps (1) de la prise est en matière plastique coulée ou moulée à base de résine, et comporte un orifice (6) pour le passage de la vis de serrage (5). A l'intérieur du corps (1) se trouvent des moyens de sécurité (en traits pointillés) déformables, formés à titre d'exemple par une armature (2) de renforcement ayant un trou (7) dont le diamètre est au moins égal au diamètre du corps (1), et inférieur au diamètre de la tête de la vis de serrage (5). L'armature (2) peut être métallique ou non métallique.The body (1) of the socket is made of plastic material cast or molded resin, and has an orifice (6) for the passage of the clamping screw (5). Inside the body (1) are deformable security means (in dashed lines), formed for example by a reinforcing armature (2) having a hole (7) whose diameter is at least equal to body diameter (1), and smaller than the diameter of the head of the clamping screw (5). The frame (2) can be metallic or non-metallic.

La figure 2 est une vue de coupe de la prise avec le support (3) pouvant être en résine, en bois ou en tout autre matériau rigide, et dans lequel est logé un insert fileté (4). Le corps (1), l'armature (2) des moyens de sécurité, et l'orifice (6) sont agencés pour permettre le passage de la vis de serrage (5).Figure 2 is a sectional view of the socket with the support (3) can be resin, wood or any other rigid material, and wherein is housed a threaded insert (4). The body (1), the armature (2) of the security means, and the orifice (6) are arranged to allow the passage of the clamping screw (5).

Sur la figure 3, les moyens de sécurité comportent un morceau de tissu (10) percé d'un trou (7) de dimension identique à celui de la figure 1.In FIG. 3, the security means comprise a piece of fabric (10) pierced with a hole (7) of identical size to that of FIG. 1.

La figure 4 illustre des moyens de sécurité conformés selon un fil (11) d'acier, ou autre matériau, formant une boucle entourant le fût de la vis (5) de serrage. La boucle est inférieure au diamètre de la tête de la vis (5) de serrage. Plusieurs fils peuvent être placés autour de la vis (5) dans une même prise.Figure 4 illustrates security means shaped according to a wire (11) of steel, or other material, forming a loop surrounding the shaft of the screw (5) clamping. The loop is smaller than the diameter of the head of the screw (5) clamping. Several wires can be placed around the screw (5) in one socket.

Sur la figure 5, les moyens de sécurité comportent un grillage (12) en métal, plastique ou tout autre matériau souple, et dont la dimension des mailles correspond au trou (7) précité.In Figure 5, the security means comprise a mesh (12) of metal, plastic or any other flexible material, and whose mesh size corresponds to the hole (7) above.

La figure 6 représente une prise cassée avec les morceaux de prise (13) attachés entre eux par les fils (11) de la figure 4, qui restent solidaires de la vis (5).Figure 6 shows a broken socket with the gripping pieces (13) attached to each other by the son (11) of Figure 4, which remain integral with the screw (5).
