Definitions

  • the invention relates to a fixing and / or assembly device comprising two elements respectively having teeth and openings intended to receive the teeth when the two elements are assembled.
  • Fastening devices comprising two elements intended to be assembled with each other are known, in particular from patents FR 2090786 and WO 96/41 551.
  • patent FR 2090786 there is described a device comprising two elements in the form of plates, one of which has fibers with hooks and the other of which has fibers in the form of loops intended to hang on the hooks of the first elements.
  • This device is well known under the name of "VELCRO".
  • the devices described in the documents cited above are relatively satisfactory, they have some faults.
  • the first device described in the document FR 2090786 has the defect of not being precise in its positioning
  • the second device described in the document WO 96/41 551 if it is precise in its positioning 11 has the defect of s 'wear relatively quickly and therefore not ensure good maintenance
  • the object of the invention is to provide a device which does not have the shortcomings of known devices, that is to say which allows precise positioning and which does not wear out easily, ensuring good maintenance even after long use. .
  • a device according to the invention comprises elastic teeth which can be used a large number of times without being damaged and which require a certain force on the part of the user to assemble its two elements, which ensures good maintenance, because it will take a substantially identical force to separate the two elements.
  • FIG. 1 schematically represents a first embodiment of the device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 schematically represents a second embodiment of the device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 3 represents a first use of the device represented in FIG. 1.
  • FIG. 4 schematically shown an alternative embodiment of an element of the device according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 schematically represent two uses of a device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 very schematically represents a first embodiment of the fixing and / or assembly device according to the invention.
  • a first element A comprising a part 1, which can be a plate or a strip or a polyhedron, but which is a plate, in the present representation, shown in section or in view.
  • teeth 2 which have come from molding in the embodiment shown.
  • Said teeth 2 have a point 3 and have a circular or polygonal section. In this embodiment, the teeth are straight.
  • FIG. 1b there is shown a second element B intended to be assembled to the first element A of Figure 1a.
  • Said element B is shown in view, it is of elongated parallelepiped shape 4 and comprising at least one line of openings 5 represented in lines in broken lines.
  • the sections of the openings (not shown) are identical to the sections of the teeth 2 of the element A in FIG. 1 a, on the other hand said openings have a curvature in the longitudinal direction.
  • the length of the teeth 2 is, in the embodiment shown, greater than the depth of the openings 5 of the element B, but this length could be just equal to or shorter than said depth 5. Which in certain use will bring an aesthetic effect, for example when the device of the invention is used as a device for closing a belt or a shoe.
  • FIG. 2a we see a first element A 'having a part 1', which can be a plate or a strip, but which is in the present representation shown in section or in view.
  • a part 1' which can be a plate or a strip, but which is in the present representation shown in section or in view.
  • teeth 2' which have come from molding in the embodiment shown.
  • Said teeth 2 ' have a point 3' and have a circular or polygonal section. In this embodiment, the teeth are curved.
  • FIG. 2b there is shown a second element B 'intended to be assembled to the first element A' of Figure 2a.
  • Said element B ′ is, as for the embodiment of FIG. 1, shown in view, it is of elongated parallelepiped shape 4 ′ and comprising at least one line of openings 5 ′ shown in titled line.
  • the sections of the openings (not shown) are identical to the sections of the teeth 2 ′ of the element A ′ in FIG. 2a, on the other hand said openings are straight in the longitudinal direction, that is to say in the direction of the depth.
  • the teeth 2 "have a point 1 0 15 comprising a small overflow so as to constitute a hook.
  • This hook will allow a non-removable assembly to be produced. This assembly to be used for fixing the element machine for example.
  • FIG. 5 represents a use of a device according to the invention, in particular a hair clip. As can be seen in the figures
  • Part A (fig. 5a) comprises an elongated parallelepiped part 51 comprising straight teeth 52 having points 53 on one of its sides.
  • part A has at one of its ends a mushroom-shaped rod 54.
  • Part B (fig. 5b) 25 comprises a body 55 having openings 56 having a curvature in the direction of their length intended to receive the teeth 52 of part A.
  • the bet B has at one of its ends means 57 for receiving and holding the mushroom-shaped rod 54 of part A.
  • FIG. 5c the two parts A are shown and B assembled.
  • FIG. 6 represents another use of a device according to the invention, in particular a pliers or staple for clothing.
  • the clamp has two parts A and B linked together by a wire or cord 68.
  • Part A (fig. 6) comprises an elongated parallelepiped part 61 comprising rectilinear teeth 62 having points 63 on one of its sides.
  • Part B (fig. 6) comprises a body 65 comprising openings 66 having a curvature in the direction of their length intended to receive the teeth 62 of part A.
  • teeth 52 and 62 could be carried out with teeth 52 and 62 curved and openings 56 and 66 straight in the direction of their depth.
  • the teeth 52 and 62 could also be produced as shown in FIG. 4.
  • a third use could include elements A with teeth on at least two opposite faces so as to be able to be assembled with two elements B simultaneously.
  • the element could also have a polyhedral body having several faces comprising teeth.
  • the assembly could be carried out in such a way that either the element A or the element B has an unassembled homeland, that is to say a part free to receive another element. In this way, constructions would be made, which amounts to saying that the device according to the invention could be used as a game.
  • the two elements A and B of a device according to the invention will be made of any suitable elastically flexible material, that is to say one which can be deformed (folded) and which returns to its shape when the force has disappeared, for example synthetic material or metal, such as steel or aluminum.
  • the present invention and its few uses have been given by way of example, in no way limiting.
  • the invention can undergo all kinds of variants, in particular as regards the material in which it is made, the size of the different elements, in particular the length of the teeth and the depth of the openings, the purposes of its use.
