Buts de 1 ' invention [0009] Le but de la présente invention vise en particulier à améliorer les techniques d'assemblage existantes en proposant tout particulièrement de simplifier les profils des rainures et languettes réalisées sur les lattes, en réduisant en particulier les opérations d'usinage nécessaires tout en assurant une pose facile tout en obtenant un verrouillage efficace.Aims of the Invention The aim of the present invention is in particular to improve existing assembly techniques by proposing very particularly to simplify the profiles of the grooves and tongues produced on the slats, by reducing in particular the operations of machining required while ensuring easy installation while achieving effective locking.
[0010] La présente invention vise en particulier une configuration des profils permettant un emboîtement direct par simples poussées successives des différentes lattes sans mouvement de rotation .

[0013] L'invention repose sur le fait qu'une rainure essentiellement perpendiculaire aux faces de la latte est réalisée sur un bord de la latte avec des chanfreins à 45 degrés et que lors de l'assemblage, cette rainure collabore avec un complément en forme de bossage pratiqué sur le bord opposé d'une latte adjacente.The invention is based on the fact that a groove essentially perpendicular to the faces of the slat is produced on an edge of the slat with chamfers at 45 degrees and that during assembly, this groove collaborates with a complement in form of boss formed on the opposite edge of an adjacent slat.

Brève description des figuresBrief description of the figures
[0015] La figure 1 représente une vue en coupe de l'assemblage bord à bord de deux lattes successives. [0016] Les figures 2, 3 et 4 représentent le profil droit d'une latte subissant trois opérations (passes) d'usinage successives.Figure 1 shows a sectional view of the edge to edge assembly of two successive slats. Figures 2, 3 and 4 show the right profile of a batten undergoing three successive operations (passes) of machining.
[0017] Les figures 5 et 6 représentent deux passes successives d'usinage du profil gauche d'une latte. [0018] Dans les figures 2 à 6, la forme et les plans d'attaque des outils apparaissent en traits épais tandis que la pièce subissant l'usinage est représentée en traits continus pour la forme finale qui est visée après l'accomplissement des différentes passes d'usinage pour le profil en question.Figures 5 and 6 show two successive machining passes of the left profile of a slat. In Figures 2 to 6, the shape and the planes of attack of the tools appear in thick lines while the part undergoing machining is shown in solid lines for the final shape which is aimed after the completion of the various machining passes for the profile in question.
[0019] La forme de la pièce subissant la passe d'usinage spécifique est complétée en traits pointillés. [0020] Par convention, dans les dessins, les lattes sont représentées dans leur position correspondant à leur pose pour former un plancher. Le bord ou chant d'un côté est qualifié conventionnellement de profil droit et l'autre bord ou chant est qualifié de profil gauche. [0021] Ces profils sont conformés, c'est-à-dire usinés, pour que le profil droit d'une latte puisse recevoir le profil gauche de la latte suivante par encliquetage de manière classique.The shape of the part undergoing the specific machining pass is completed in dotted lines. By convention, in the drawings, the slats are shown in their position corresponding to their poses to form a floor. The edge or edge on one side is conventionally called a right profile and the other edge or edge is called the left profile. These profiles are shaped, that is to say machined, so that the right profile of a slat can receive the left profile of the next slat by snap-fastening in a conventional manner.
Description détaillée de l'invention [0022] La caractéristique essentielle de l'assemblage selon la présente invention est le fait que les opérations d'usinage sont réalisées de telle manière que la latte devant s'emboîter sur une latte précédente déjà posée puisse être amenée dans un plan parallèle par rapport à sa voisine et puisse, sans déformation excessive, être emboîtée par un effort de pression orienté sous un angle d'environ 45° vers le bas en amenant la latte qui vient d'être emboîtée dans le même plan et en planéité avec celle qui étant déjà posée précédemment. [0023] Ceci est rendu possible par le fait que le premier côté de la latte 1, représenté dans les figures 2 à 4 sous forme du profil droit, comporte, en partant du bas vers le haut, une rainure 3 tournée vers le haut, perpendiculaire aux faces de la latte 1 et comportant un décrochement 5 sur son côté opposé au bord latéral de la latte, ce décrochement 5 se terminant par un chanfrein 7 tourné vers le bord latéral sous un angle d' approximativement 45 degrés. Sur le côté opposé de la rainure 3, un chanfrein 9 parallèle au chanfrein 7 est prévu .DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The essential characteristic of the assembly according to the present invention is the fact that the machining operations are carried out in such a way that the lath having to fit onto a previous lath already laid can be brought in a plane parallel to its neighbor and can, without excessive deformation, be nested by a pressure force oriented at an angle of about 45 ° downward by bringing the slat which has just been nested in the same plane and in flatness with that which is already posed previously. This is made possible by the fact that the first side of the batten 1, represented in FIGS. 2 to 4 in the form of the straight profile, comprises, starting from the bottom upwards, a groove 3 turned upwards, perpendicular to the faces of the batten 1 and comprising a recess 5 on its side opposite to the lateral edge of the batten, this recess 5 ending in a chamfer 7 turned towards the lateral edge at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. On the opposite side of the groove 3, a chamfer 9 parallel to the chamfer 7 is provided.
[0024] Le chanfrein 9 se prolonge jusqu'à l'extrémité du bord par une surface plane 11.The chamfer 9 extends to the end of the edge by a flat surface 11.
[0025] Le décrochement 5 mentionné est réalisé dans le corps de la latte et se poursuit (vers le haut) après le chanfrein 7, par une découpe sensiblement à angle droit 12 mais comportant à son tour un petit décrochement 13. D'autres formes peuvent être choisies pour cette partie supérieure . [0026] Le profil opposé, qualifié de profil gauche, qui est représenté pour une latte adjacente à la figure 1, est réalisé de manière complémentaire à ce qui vient d'être décrit, un bossage 19 étant prévu pour se loger dans la rainure 3. [0027] Dans les figures 2 à 6, on a indiqué la forme des outils 21, 23, 25, 27 et 29 utilisés pour les différentes passes des profils droit et gauche.The step 5 mentioned is made in the body of the slat and continues (upwards) after the chamfer 7, by a cut substantially at a right angle 12 but in turn comprising a small recess 13. Other shapes can be chosen for this upper part. The opposite profile, qualified as a left profile, which is shown for a slat adjacent to Figure 1, is produced in a manner complementary to what has just been described, a boss 19 being provided to be housed in the groove 3 In Figures 2 to 6, the form of the tools 21, 23, 25, 27 and 29 has been indicated, used for the various passes of the right and left profiles.
[0028] Il convient de noter que la position de travail des outils a été indiquée en respectant le sens de pose de la latte pour former un plancher, mais que bien entendu, pour pratiquer les opérations d'usinage, d'autres positions d'outils peuvent être choisies, ce . qui implique que la pièce à travailler soit disposée de manière complémentaire à l'outil. [0029] On notera qu'à l'exception de l'opération illustrée à la figure 4, les outils travaillent à angle droit par rapport aux plans supérieur et inférieur des lattes . [0030] L'opération réalisée à la figure 4 est la seule qui soit pratiquée sous un angle d ' approximativement 45 degrés par rapport au plan des lattes.It should be noted that the working position of the tools has been indicated by respecting the direction of laying of the slat to form a floor, but that of course, to practice the machining operations, other positions of tools can be chosen, this. which implies that the workpiece is arranged in a way complementary to the tool. Note that with the exception of the operation illustrated in Figure 4, the tools work at right angles to the upper and lower planes of the slats. The operation performed in Figure 4 is the only one that is performed at an angle of approximately 45 degrees relative to the plane of the slats.
[0031] On notera également que le nombre d'opérations est particulièrement réduit, que la forme des outils est relativement simple, et que les différentes étapes peuvent être réalisées à l'aide de machines classiques du type fraiseuse-défonceuse .It will also be noted that the number of operations is particularly reduced, that the shape of the tools is relatively simple, and that the various stages can be carried out using conventional machines of the milling-router type.
[0032] L'usinage peut bien entendu se réaliser simultanément sur les deux chants de la latte brute. [0033] Des opérations complémentaires de finissage (ébarbage, vernissage, etc.) sont bien entendu possibles dans le cadre de l'invention.Machining can of course be carried out simultaneously on the two edges of the raw batten. Complementary finishing operations (deburring, varnishing, etc.) are of course possible in the context of the invention.
[0034] La présence des chanfreins 7 et 9 permet d'introduire le bossage 19 du profil gauche de la latte à poser en la plaçant dans un plan parallèle par rapport au profil droit de la latte précédente, et l'emboîtement se réalisant de manière simple en exerçant une pression suivant un angle d'environ 45°. [0035] Ainsi qu'il apparaît dans les dessins, si le profil gauche de la latte l' est complémentaire au profil droit de la latte précédente 1, on laisse un certain jeuThe presence of the chamfers 7 and 9 makes it possible to introduce the boss 19 of the left profile of the slat to be laid by placing it in a plane parallel to the right profile of the previous slat, and the interlocking being carried out so simple by applying pressure at an angle of about 45 °. As it appears in the drawings, if the left profile of the batten is complementary to the right profile of the previous batten 1, some play is left
(voir figure 1) pour faciliter l'emboîtement. Des congés adéquat sont prévus pour permettre l'introduction aisée des rainure et bossage dans la position approximative à 45° de la latte à poser par rapport à la latte précédente et ensuite permettre l'emboîtement.(see figure 1) to facilitate nesting. Adequate leaves are provided to allow the easy introduction of the groove and boss in the approximate 45 ° position of the slat to be laid relative to the previous slat and then allow nesting.
[0036] Bien qu'on ait décrit une forme d'exécution préférée de l'invention, de nombreuses modifications peuvent y être apportées tant dans la configuration des lattes que dans les opérations d'usinage. Although a preferred embodiment of the invention has been described, numerous modifications can be made to it both in the configuration of the slats and in the machining operations.
