Description

Dispositif de fixation et/ou d'assemblage Fixing and / or assembly device
L'invention a pour objet un dispositif de fixation et/ou d'assemblage comportant deux éléments présentant respectivement des dents et des ouvertures destinées à recevoir les dents lorsque les deux éléments sont assemblés.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.
Des dispositifs de fixation comportant deux éléments destinés à être assemblés l'un avec l'autre sont connus, notamment par les brevets FR 2090786 et WO 96/41 551 . Dans le brevet FR 2090786 il est décrit un dispositif comportant deux éléments se présentant sous forme de plaques, dont l'un présente des fibres avec des crochets et dont l'autre présente des fibres en forme de boucles destinées à s'accrocher sur les crochets du premier éléments. Ce dispositif est bien connu sous le nom de « VELCRO » . On trouve aussi dans ledit document français une critique des dispositifs antérieurs au 29 avril 1970, qui est la date de dépôt de la priorité suisse.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. In 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". We also find in this French document a review of the arrangements prior to April 29, 1970, which is the filing date of the Swiss priority.
Le document WO 96/41551 décrit un dispositif d'attache pour chaussures destiné à remplacer les lacets. Ce dispositif comprend une première partie en forme de languette présentant des ouvertures et une seconde partie en forme de plaque présentant des arêtes en forme de crochets. La languette est destinée à venir s'accrocher sur les crochets. Ce dispositif est très proche de celui décrit dans le brevet US 4727659. En effet, dans ce dernier document il décrit un dispositif d'attache comportant deux éléments dont un présente des protubérances en forme de champignon destinées à venir se placer dans des ouvertures circulaires prévues dans le second élément.Document WO 96/41551 describes a fastening device for shoes intended to replace laces. This device comprises a first part in the form of a tab having openings and a second part in the form of a plate having edges in the form of hooks. The tongue is intended to hang on the hooks. This device is very close to that described in US Pat. No. 4,727,659. In this latter document, it describes a fastening device comprising two elements, one of which has mushroom-shaped protuberances intended to be placed in circular openings provided in the second element.
Bien que les dispositifs décrits dans les documents cités ci-dessus soient relativement satisfaisants, ils présentent quelques défauts. Notamment le premier dispositif décrit dans le document FR 2090786 présente le défaut de ne pas être précis dans son positionnement, Tandis que le second dispositif décrit dans le document WO 96/41 551 s'il est précis dans son positionnement 11 présente le défaut de s'user relativement rapidement et donc de ne pas assurer un bon maintient. L'invention a pour buts de fournir un dispositif qui ne présente pas les défauts des dispositifs connus, c'est-à-dire qui permet un positionnement précis et qui ne s'use pas facilement, assurant un bon maintient même après un long usage.Although the devices described in the documents cited above are relatively satisfactory, they have some faults. In particular the first device described in the document FR 2090786 has the defect of not being precise in its positioning, while 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. .
Ces buts sont atteints avec le dispositif selon l'invention défini à la revendicationThese objects are achieved with the device according to the invention defined in claim
1 .1.
En effet, un dispositif selon l'invention comporte des dents élastiques qui peuvent être utilisées un grand nombre de fois sans être abîmées et, qui demandent pour assembler ses deux éléments une certaine force de la part de l'utilisateur, ce qui assure un bon maintien, car il faudra une force sensiblement identique pour séparer les deux éléments.Indeed, 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.
L'invention sera mieux comprise et ses caractéristiques et ses avantages apparaîtront plus clairement à la lecture de la description de formes d'exécution donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple en regard des dessins sur lesquels :The invention will be better understood and its characteristics and advantages will appear more clearly on reading the description of embodiments given solely by way of example with reference to the drawings in which:
La figure 1 représente schématiquement une première forme d'exécution du dispositif selon l'invention.FIG. 1 schematically represents a first embodiment of the device according to the invention.
La figure 2 représente schématiquement une seconde forme d'exécution du dispositif selon l'invention.FIG. 2 schematically represents a second embodiment of the device according to the invention.
La figure 3 représente une première utilisation du dispositif représenté à la figure 1 .FIG. 3 represents a first use of the device represented in FIG. 1.
La figure 4 représenté schématiquement une variante d'exécution d'un élément du dispositif selon l'invention.Figure 4 schematically shown an alternative embodiment of an element of the device according to the invention.
Les figures 5 et 6 représentent schématiquement deux utilisations d'un dispositif selon l'invention.Figures 5 and 6 schematically represent two uses of a device according to the invention.
La figure 1 représente très schématiquement une première forme d'exécution du dispositif de fixation et/ou d'assemblage selon l'invention. Sur la figure 1 a on voit un premier élément A comportant une partie 1 , qui peut être une plaque ou une bande ou un polyèdre, mais qui est une plaque, dans ia pi ésente représentation, montrée en coupe ou en vue. A la partie 1 sont attachées des dents 2, qui sont venues de moulage dans la forme d'exécution représentée. Lesdites dents 2 comportent une pointe 3 et ont une section circulaire ou polygonale. Dans cette forme d'exécution les dents sont droites.FIG. 1 very schematically represents a first embodiment of the fixing and / or assembly device according to the invention. In FIG. 1 a we see 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. To part 1 are attached 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.
Sur la figure 1 b, on a représenté un second élément B destiné à être assemblé au premier élément A de la figure 1 a. Ledit élément B est représenté en vue, il est de forme parallélépipédique allongée 4 et comportant au moins une lignée d'ouvertures 5 représentées en lignes en traits discontinus. Les sections des ouvertures (non représentées) sont identiques aux sections des dents 2 de l'élément A de la figure 1 a, par contre lesdites ouvertures présentent une courbure dans le sens longitudinale. Ainsi, lorsque l'on présente l'élément A contre l'élément B et que l'on presse les deux éléments l'un contre l'autre les dents de l'élément A pénètrent dans les ouvertures de l'élément B, ce qui a été représenté à la figure 1 c. Cette opération nécessite une certaine force pour que les dents 2 se courbent et une force sensiblement identique sera nécessaire pour déassembler ou séparer les deux éléments A et B. De cette manière on obtient un assemblage précis et relativement solide.In Figure 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. Thus, when the element A is presented against the element B and the two elements are pressed against each other, the teeth of the element A penetrate into the openings of the element B, this which has been shown in Figure 1 c. This operation requires a certain force for the teeth 2 to bend and a substantially identical force will be necessary to disassemble or separate the two elements A and B. In this way, an accurate and relatively solid assembly is obtained.
Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 1 c les deux éléments A et B sont assemblés avec un espace h entre la plaque 1 de l'élément A et le corps 4 de l'élément B, cet espace pourra servir à pincer un tissu ou des cheveux, par exemple, comme représenté sur la figure 3.As can be seen in Figure 1 c the two elements A and B are assembled with a space h between the plate 1 of the element A and the body 4 of the element B, this space can be used to pinch a fabric or hair, for example, as shown in Figure 3.
La longueur des dents 2 est, dans la forme d'exécution représentée, est plus grande que la profondeur des ouvertures 5 de l'élément B, mais cette longueur pourrait être juste égale ou plus courte que ladite profondeur 5. Ce qui dans certaine utilisation apportera un effet esthétique, par exemple lorsque le dispositif de l'invention est utilisé comme dispositif de fermeture d'une ceinture ou d'une chaussure.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.
Sur la figure 2, on a représenté schématiquement une seconde forme d'exécution dudit dispositif selon l'invention. Afin de faciliter la compréhension on a gardé les mêmes signes de référence que sur la figure 1 auxquels on a ajouté un prime (').In Figure 2, there is shown schematically a second embodiment of said device according to the invention. In order to facilitate understanding we kept the same reference signs as in figure 1 to which we added a premium (').
Sur la figure 2a on voit un premier élément A' comportant une partie 1 ', qui peut être une plaque ou une bande, mais qui est dans la présente représentation montré en coupe ou en vue. A la partie 1 ' sont attachées des dents 2', qui sont venues de moulage dans la forme d'exécution représentée. Lesdites dents 2' comportent une pointe 3' et ont une section circulaire ou polygonale. Dans cette forme d'exécution les dents sont courbes.In Figure 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. To the part 1 'are attached 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.
Sur la figure 2b, on a représenté un second élément B' destiné à être assemblé au premier élément A' de la figure 2a. Ledit élément B' est, comme pour la forme d'exécution de figure 1 , représenté en vue, il est de forme parallélépipédique allongée 4' et comportant au moins une lignée d'ouvertures 5' représentées en ligne titillée. Les sections des ouvertures (non représentées) sont identiques aux sections des dents 2' de l'élément A' de la figure 2a, par contre lesdites ouvertures sont droites dans le sens longitudinale, c'est-à-dire dans le sens de la profondeur. Ainsi, lorsque l'on présente l'élément A' contre l'élément B' et que l'on presse les deux éléments l'un contre l'autre les dents de l'élément A' pénètrent dans les ouvertures de l'élément B', ce qui a été représenté à la figure 2c. Cette opération nécessite une certaine force pour que les dents 2' se redressent et une force sensiblement identique sera nécessaire pour déassembler ou séparer les deux éléments A' et B'. De cette manière on obtient aussi un assemblage précis et relativement solide.In Figure 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. Thus, when the element A 'is presented against the element B' and the two elements are pressed against each other, the teeth of the element A 'penetrate into the openings of the element B ', which has been shown in Figure 2c. This operation requires a certain force for the teeth 2 'to straighten and a substantially identical force will be necessary to disassemble or separate the two elements A' and B '. In this way we also obtain a precise and relatively solid assembly.
Sur la figure 4, on peut voir une troisième forme d'exécution sensiblement différente des deux premières formes d'exécution décrites ci-dessus, mais basée sur le même principe que celui défini à la revendication 1 . Afin de faciliter la compréhension on a gardé les mêmes signes de référence pour les mêmes caractéristiques que sur la figure 1 auxquels on a ajouté deux prime ("), et on a seulement représenté l'élément A, car l'élément B" est identique à l'élément B'de la forme décrite en regard de la figure 2, c'est-à-dire que les ouvertures sont rectilignes dans le sens de la profondeur. Sur la figure 4, on voit l'élément A" comportant une première partie 1 ", qui comme pour les précédentes formes d'exécution peut être une bande ou une plaque. A la partie 1 " sont attachées des dents 2", qui sont aussi , par exemple, venues de moulage dans la forme d'exécution représentée. Lesdites dents 2"In Figure 4, we can see a third embodiment substantially different from the first two embodiments described above, but based on the same principle as that defined in claim 1. In order to facilitate understanding, the same reference signs have been kept for the same characteristics as in FIG. 1 to which two premiums have been added ("), and the element A has only been represented, since the element B" is identical to element B ′ of the form described with reference to FIG. 2, that is to say that the openings are rectilinear in the direction of the depth. In Figure 4, we see the element A "comprising a first part 1", which as for the previous embodiments can be a strip or a plate. To the part 1 "are attached teeth 2", which are also, for example, molded in the embodiment shown. Said teeth 2 "
5 ont une section circulaire ou polygonale. Dans cette forme d'exécution les dents5 have a circular or polygonal section. In this embodiment the teeth
2" présentent une fente longitudinale 7 constituant deux parties 8 et 9 , qui peuvent être rapprochées élastiquement lorsque les dents 2" sont enfoncées dans les ouvertures de la partie B". Cette opération nécessite une certaine force pour que les parties des dents 2" se rapprochent et une force î o sensiblement identique sera nécessaire pour déassembler les deux éléments2 "have a longitudinal slot 7 constituting two parts 8 and 9, which can be resiliently brought together when the teeth 2" are pressed into the openings of part B ". This operation requires a certain force so that the parts of the teeth 2" close together and a substantially identical force will be required to disassemble the two elements
A" et B". De cette manière on obtient aussi un assemblage précis et relativement solide.A "and B". In this way we also obtain a precise and relatively solid assembly.
De plus dans cette forme d'exécution les dents 2" présentent une pointe 1 0 15 comportant un petit débordement de manière à constituer un crochet. Ce crochet permettra de réaliser un assemblage non démontable. Cet assemblage pour être utilisé pour la fixation d'élément de machine par exemple.In addition, in this embodiment, 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.
La figure 5 représente une utilisation d'un dispositif selon l'invention, 20 notamment une barrette pour les cheveux. Comme on peut le voir sur es figuresFIG. 5 represents a use of a device according to the invention, in particular a hair clip. As can be seen in the figures
5a et 5b la barrette présente deux parties A et B. La partie A (fig. 5a) comprend une partie parallélépipédique allongée 51 comportant de dents 52 rectilignes ayant des pointes 53 sur l'un de ses côtés. De plus, la partie A présente à l'une de ses extrémités une tige en forme de champignon 54. La partie B (fig. 5b) 25 comprend un corps 55 comportant des ouvertures 56 présentant une courbure dans le sens de leur longueur destinées à recevoir les dents 52 de la partie A. La parie B présente à l'une de ses extrémités des moyens 57 pour recevoir et maintenir la tige en forme de champignon 54 de la partie A. Sur la figure 5c on a représenté les deux parties A et B assemblées.5a and 5b the bar has two parts A and B. Part A (fig. 5a) comprises an elongated parallelepiped part 51 comprising straight teeth 52 having points 53 on one of its sides. In addition, 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. In FIG. 5c the two parts A are shown and B assembled.

La figure 6 représente une autre utilisation d'un dispositif selon l'invention, notamment une pince ou agrafe pour l'habillement. Comme on le voit sur la figure 6 la pince comporte deux partie A et B liée entre elles par un fil ou cordon 68. La partie A (fig. 6) comprend une partie parallélépipédique allongée 61 comportant de dents 62 rectilignes ayant des pointes 63 sur l'un de ses côtés. La partie B (fig. 6) comprend un corps 65 comportant des ouvertures 66 présentant une courbure dans le sens de leur longueur destinées à recevoir les dents 62 de la partie A. L'utilisation de ladite pince se fait de la manière suivante : on place l'élément B d'un côté du tissu que l'on désire fixer et on enfonce la partie A dans la partie B en veillant à traverser le tissu avec les dents 62 , puis serre les deux parties A et B l'une contre l'autre, ainsi le tissu sera maintenu.FIG. 6 represents another use of a device according to the invention, in particular a pliers or staple for clothing. As can be seen in FIG. 6, 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. The use of said clamp is done as follows: place element B on one side of the fabric that you want to fix and push part A into part B, making sure to cross the fabric with teeth 62, then tighten the two parts A and B one against the other, so the fabric will be maintained.
II est évident que les deux utilisation décrites ci-dessus , à titre d'exemple, pourraient être réalisées avec des dents 52 et 62 courbes et des ouvertures 56 et 66 droites dans le sens de leur profondeur. Les dents 52 et 62 pourraient aussi être réalisées comme représentées sur la figure 4.It is obvious that the two uses described above, by way of example, 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.
Une troisième utilisation, non représentée, pourrait comporté des élément A avec des dents sur au moins deux faces opposées de manière à pouvoir être assemblé avec deux éléments B simultanément. L'élément pourrait aussi présenter un corps polyédrique ayant plusieurs faces comportant des dents. L'assemblage pourrait être réalisé de manière que soit l'élément A ou l'élément B présente une patrie non assemblée, c'est-à-dire une partie libre de recevoir un autre élément. De cette façon on réaliserait des constructions, ce qui revient à dire que le dispositif selon l'invention pourrait utilisé comme jeu.A third use, not shown, 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.
