Cette structure de boîtier protecteur 20, détaillée sur les figures 2, 6 et 7, est constituée d'un carter 22 de forme générale parallélépipédique muni d'une face avant amovible 23 (qui n'apparaît pas sur la figure 2).This protective housing structure 20, detailed in FIGS. 2, 6 and 7, consists of a casing 22 of generally parallelepipedal shape provided with a removable front face 23 (which does not appear in FIG. 2).
L'élément de carter 22 consiste en un ensemble monobloc en matière plastique comprenant deux parois latérales 24, 25, une paroi arrière 26, une paroi supérieure 27 et une paroi inférieure 28. Cette paroi inférieure 28 comporte une ouverture centrale 29 bordée par deux glissières parallèles 30 qui permettent le montage sur le carter 22 des moyens motoréducteurs 8, et l'intégration du système d'imagerie 3 avec son support 6 fixé à l'extrémité de l'axe 10.The casing element 22 consists of a one-piece plastic assembly comprising two side walls 24, 25, a rear wall 26, an upper wall 27 and a lower wall 28. This bottom wall 28 has a central opening 29 bordered by two parallel slides 30 which allow mounting on the housing 22 of the gearmotor means 8, and the integration of the imaging system 3 with its support 6 fixed to the end of the axis 10.
Pour cela, les moyens motoréducteurs 8 sont logés dans un boîtier 32 muni de coulisses latérales 33 adaptées aux glissières 30 (figure 2).For this, the gearmotor means 8 are housed in a housing 32 provided with lateral slides 33 adapted to the slides 30 (Figure 2).
Sur les figures 2 et 6, on remarque que la diode ou ampoule d'éclairage 16 est fixée au centre de la paroi supérieure 27 du carter 22, sensiblement en regard et à l'aplomb de l'axe 10 ; la paroi supérieure 27 comporte un orifice central 34 par lequel passent les câbles électriques d'alimentation de cette diode/ampoule 16. Le dispositif d'éclairage 16 est en conséquence fixé sur la paroi située en regard de celle qui porte les moyens motoréducteurs 8 ; il est positionné à l'intérieur de l'encombrement du cylindre rotatif 6, ou juste au-dessus, de manière à obtenir un éclairage optimal de la bande imprimée 3 par l'arrière.In FIGS. 2 and 6, it can be seen that the diode or light bulb 16 is fixed to the center of the upper wall 27 of the casing 22, substantially facing and perpendicular to the axis 10; the upper wall 27 comprises a central orifice 34 through which the electrical cables for feeding this diode / bulb 16 pass. The lighting device 16 is consequently fixed on the wall situated opposite that which carries the geared motor means 8; it is positioned inside the space of the rotary cylinder 6, or just above it, so as to obtain optimal lighting of the printed strip 3 from the rear.
La face avant amovible 23 qui est associée au carter 22 est structurée pour permettre un accès visuel depuis l'extérieur au système d'imagerie intégré.The removable front face 23 which is associated with the casing 22 is structured to allow visual access from the outside to the integrated imaging system.
Cette face avant 23, détaillée sur les figures 6 et 7, comprend deux parties indépendantes, l'une extérieure 36 munie d'une partie centrale transparente 37, et l'autre intérieure 38 en forme de cadre, qui viennent pincer le pourtour d'une ouverture 39 aménagée dans l'enveloppe 40 du corps de jouet. Ces deux parties extérieure 36 et intérieure 38 comportent des moyens d'assemblage amovibles en forme de vis 42.This front face 23, detailed in FIGS. 6 and 7, comprises two independent parts, one external 36 provided with a transparent central part 37, and the other internal 38 in the form of a frame, which pinch the periphery of an opening 39 arranged in the envelope 40 of the toy body. These two exterior 36 and interior 38 parts comprise removable assembly means in the form of screws 42.
D'autre part, la bordure périphérique avant du carter 22 est équipée de languettes de verrouillage 43 adaptées pour venir s'encliqueter dans des orifices 44 aménagés sur le cadre intérieur 38, de manière à assurer un verrouillage amovible de la face avant 23 de la structure de boîtier 20 sur ledit carter 22.On the other hand, the front peripheral edge of the casing 22 is equipped with locking tabs 43 adapted to snap into orifices 44 arranged on the inner frame 38, so as to ensure removable locking of the front face 23 of the housing structure 20 on said housing 22.
La partie extérieure 36 de ladite face avant 23 se présente avantageusement sous la forme d'un cadre rectangulaire opaque 46 muni d'une feuillure interne aménagée pour accueillir un panneau rectangulaire transparent 37. Ce panneau transparent 37 peut être solidarisé avec le cadre 46 ; il peut aussi être maintenu par simple serrage entre ledit cadre 46 et l'enveloppe 40 du jouet, ou le cadre intérieur 38.The outer part 36 of said front face 23 is advantageously in the form of an opaque rectangular frame 46 provided with an internal rabbet arranged to accommodate a transparent rectangular panel 37. This transparent panel 37 can be secured to the frame 46; it can also be held by simple tightening between said frame 46 and the envelope 40 of the toy, or the inner frame 38.
Par souci de sécurité, les différentes vis 42 qui assurent l'assemblage des parties extérieure 36 et intérieure 38 de la face avant 23 sont disposées intérieurement ; ces vis 42 sont montées sur le cadre intérieur 38 et elles viennent se fixer dans des orifices 47 aménagés sur la face intérieure du cadre 46. L'assemblage des parties extérieure 36 et intérieure 38 sur le pourtour de l'ouverture 39 aménagée dans l'enveloppe 40 du corps de jouet s'effectue avant la fixation du carter 22 sur le cadre intérieur 38.For safety reasons, the various screws 42 which assemble the outer 36 and inner 38 parts of the front face 23 are arranged internally; these screws 42 are mounted on the inner frame 38 and they are fixed in orifices 47 arranged on the inner face of the frame 46. The assembly of the outer 36 and inner 38 parts around the periphery of the opening 39 arranged in the casing 40 of the toy body is carried out before the casing 22 is fixed on the inner frame 38.
Une fois l'ensemble correctement positionné dans le corps du jouet, l'enveloppe 40 est fermée et le module d'animation 2 ne peut plus être démonté par l'avant, sans destruction.Once the assembly is correctly positioned in the body of the toy, the envelope 40 is closed and the animation module 2 can no longer be disassembled from the front, without destruction.
Pour assurer la maintenance du module d'animation 2, en cas de panne par exemple, ou simplement pour changer les piles ou le système d'imagerie 3, on peut prévoir la présence d'une ouverture dans le corps du jouet, par exemple sur l'arrière, associée à un moyen de fermeture amovible du type fermeture à glissière, ou bandes autoagrippantes.To maintain the animation module 2, in the event of a breakdown for example, or simply to change the batteries or the imaging system 3, provision may be made for the presence of an opening in the body of the toy, for example on the rear, associated with a removable closure means of the zipper type, or Velcro straps.
Le cadre intérieur 38, le pourtour de l'ouverture 39 aménagée dans l'enveloppe 40 du corps de jouet, et le cadre extérieur 46 avec le panneau transparent 37, constituent ensemble l'écran transparent 4 ; les ouvertures correspondantes ont des formes et des dimensions identiques ou voisines, adaptées aux dimensions du système d'imagerie 3.The inner frame 38, the periphery of the opening 39 arranged in the envelope 40 of the toy body, and the outer frame 46 with the transparent panel 37 together constitute the transparent screen 4; the corresponding openings have identical or similar shapes and dimensions, adapted to the dimensions of the imaging system 3.
Le panneau transparent 37 peut être réalisé en verre grossissant, afin de permettre une visualisation agrandie de l'image.The transparent panel 37 can be made of magnifying glass, in order to allow an enlarged viewing of the image.
Pour faciliter l'assemblage des cadres extérieur 46 et intérieur 38, et pour obtenir une bonne finition d'ensemble, l'ouverture 39 aménagée dans l'enveloppe 40 du corps de jouet est bordée par un cadre de renfort 49 solidarisé par un système de coutures. Ce cadre de renfort 49 est de préférence réalisé en matière plastique souple et il comporte des orifices 50 qui permettent le passage des vis d'assemblage 42.To facilitate the assembly of the outer 46 and inner 38 frames, and to obtain a good overall finish, the opening 39 arranged in the envelope 40 of the toy body is bordered by a reinforcing frame 49 secured by a system of seams. This reinforcing frame 49 is preferably made of flexible plastic and it has orifices 50 which allow the passage of the assembly screws 42.
On obtient une structure d'animation originale intégrée dans le corps d'un ours en peluche ou de tout autre jouet du même genre tel qu'une poupée par exemple ; cette structure d'animation est activée et désactivée de manière très simple en agissant par un simple contact-pression sur l'interrupteur 15 placé à l'extrémité de l'un des bras du jouet.We obtain an original animation structure integrated into the body of a teddy bear or any other toy of the same kind such as a doll for example; this animation structure is activated and deactivated in a very simple manner by acting by a simple pressure contact on the switch 15 placed at the end of one of the arms of the toy.
Selon une autre forme de réalisation possible illustrée sur la figure 8, le système d'imagerie consiste en des diapositives 52 maintenues de manière amovible dans des logements 53 aménagés sur un carrousel support 54 approprié. Les diapositives 52 peuvent par exemple être maintenues sur le carrousel support 54 au moyen de simples clips ou encoches 55.According to another possible embodiment illustrated in FIG. 8, the imaging system consists of slides 52 detachably held in housings 53 arranged on an appropriate support carousel 54. The slides 52 can for example be held on the support carousel 54 by means of simple clips or notches 55.
Comme dans l'exemple de réalisation précédent, le support 54 du système d'imagerie est fixé de manière amovible à l'extrémité d'un axe d'entraînement en rotation. Le fonctionnement de cette structure est ici de préférence séquentiel, c'est-à- dire qu'une pression sur l'interrupteur 15 entraîne le déplacement du carrousel 54 d'un quart de tour pour positionner la diapositive suivante en regard de l'écran transparent 4.As in the previous embodiment, the support 54 of the imaging system is removably attached to the end of a rotational drive axis. The operation of this structure is preferably sequential here, that is to say that pressing the switch 15 causes the carousel 54 to move a quarter of a turn to position the next slide opposite the screen. transparent 4.
L'activation des moyens d'éclairage et le déclenchement du module sonore éventuel, sont bien entendu adaptés à ce fonctionnement séquentiel.The activation of the lighting means and the triggering of the possible sound module are of course adapted to this sequential operation.
En particulier, le dispositif d'éclairage des diapositives 52 peut être implanté de manière identique à celle indiquée pour le mode de réalisation précédent, pour illuminer le film transparent par l'arrière. Les moyens de commande de ce dispositif d'éclairage sont constitués d'un interrupteur particulier, indépendant de l'interrupteur 15, implanté par exemple dans une autre patte de la peluche.In particular, the lighting device for the slides 52 can be installed in an identical manner to that indicated for the previous embodiment, to illuminate the transparent film from the rear. The control means of this lighting device consist of a particular switch, independent of the switch 15, located for example in another leg of the plush.
Pour ce mode de réalisation, la face avant du boîtier de protection, ou bien la face arrière, peut être adaptée pour permettre un changement aisé des diapositives ; s'il s'agit de la face arrière, une ouverture appropriée sera prévue dans la partie arrière de l'enveloppe du jouet associée à un moyen de fermeture amovible type fermeture éclair ou bandes autoagrippantes.For this embodiment, the front face of the protective housing, or else the rear face, can be adapted to allow an easy change of the slides; in the case of the rear face, an appropriate opening will be provided in the rear part of the envelope of the toy associated with a removable closure means such as a zipper or Velcro strips.
Toujours pour ce mode de réalisation, le système d'imagerie est avantageusement associé à un module permettant l'enregistrement et la diffusion d'un message sonore associé à chaque diapositive. Il sera ainsi possible d'enregistrer et de diffuser un commentaire particulier associé à chaque image. La diffusion de ce commentaire particulier peut être commandée par l'interrupteur 15 de changement de diapositive. Still for this embodiment, the imaging system is advantageously associated with a module allowing the recording and broadcasting of an audio message associated with each slide. It will thus be possible to record and distribute a specific comment associated with each image. The broadcasting of this particular comment can be controlled by the switch 15 for changing the slide.
