Description

DISPOSITIF D'EXTRACTION D'UNE FICHE ELECTRIQUE MALE PAR RAPPORT A UNE FICHE ELECTRIQUE FEMELLE DEVICE FOR EXTRACTING A MALE ELECTRICAL PLUG FROM A FEMALE ELECTRICAL PLUG
L'invention se rattache au secteur technique des ensembles de prises de courant composés d'une fiche électrique mâle et d'une fiche électrique femelle.The invention relates to the technical sector of sets of sockets composed of a male electrical plug and a female electrical plug.
Généralement, la fiche électrique femelle est fixée par tout moyen connu et approprié sur une partie murale quelconque, sur une plinthe, ...., en étant connectée électriquement au réseauGenerally, the female electrical plug is fixed by any known and appropriate means on any wall part, on a plinth, etc., while being electrically connected to the network.
Après introduction de la fiche mâle dans la fiche femelle, l'opérateur ou l'utilisateur éprouve, très souvent, de grandes difficultés pour assurer l'extraction de ladite fiche mâle. L'effort manuel de traction exercé directement au niveau du corps de la fiche mâle, peut provoquer l'arrachement de l'ensemble de la fiche électrique femelle.After inserting the male plug into the female plug, the operator or user very often experiences great difficulty in ensuring the extraction of said male plug. The manual traction force exerted directly on the body of the male plug, can cause the whole of the female electrical plug to be torn off.
Pour tenter d'éviter cet inconvénient, il conviendrait de maintenir fermement, au moyen de la main, la fiche femelle, au moment de l'extraction manuelle de la fiche mâle. Il s'avère en réalité que cette précaution n'est que peu utilisée. Cela étant, une telle précaution n'est pas toujours totalement efficace, et ne s'avère pas rationnelle.To try to avoid this drawback, the female plug should be held firmly, by hand, at the time of manual extraction of the male plug. It turns out that this precaution is rarely used. However, such a precaution is not always completely effective, and does not prove to be rational.
Ce phénomène d'arrachement apparaît très souvent dans le cas des prises de courant normalisées présentant au moins deux plots de connexion et un plot de mise à la terre.This tearing phenomenon very often appears in the case of standardized power sockets having at least two connection pads and a grounding pad.
Pour tenter de remédier à ces inconvénients, on a proposé de créer, au moment de la fabrication de la fiche mâle, un système de gâchette susceptible de permettre le débordement d'un doigt éjecteur apte à coopérer en appui, sous l'effet de la commande ladite gâchette, avec une partie de la fiche femelle, de manière à provoquer, d'une manière concomitante, l'extraction de la fiche mâle.To try to remedy these drawbacks, it has been proposed to create, at the time of manufacture of the male plug, a trigger system capable of allowing the overflow of an ejector finger capable of cooperating. in support, under the effect of the command said trigger, with a part of the female plug, so as to cause, concomitantly, the extraction of the male plug.
Une telle solution ne peut, cependant, pas être considérée comme satisfaisante, étant donné qu'elle nécessite une prise électrique mâle de conception spécifique ce qui, bien évidemment, augmente, d'une manière importante, les coûts.Such a solution cannot, however, be considered satisfactory, since it requires a male electrical outlet of specific design which, of course, significantly increases the costs.
L'invention s'est fixée pour but de remédier à ces inconvénients, de manière simple, sûre, efficace et rationnelle.The object of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks in a simple, safe, effective and rational manner.
Le problème que se propose de résoudre l'invention est de pouvoir équiper à volonté tous types de prises de courant normalisées, notamment de fiches mâles, d'un organe indépendant et amovible apte à permettre, sous une action manuelle, une extraction automatique de la fiche mâle par rapport à la fiche femelle sans arrachement de cette dernière et sans nécessiter un effort important.The problem which the invention proposes to solve is to be able to equip at will all types of standardized sockets, in particular male plugs, with an independent and removable member capable of allowing, under manual action, an automatic extraction of the male plug compared to the female plug without tearing off the latter and without requiring significant effort.
Pour résoudre un tel problème, il a été conçu et mis au point un dispositif d'extraction qui comprend :To solve such a problem, an extraction device has been designed and developed which includes:
- un organe indépendant et amovible présentant des agencements pour être adapté sur une partie du corps de la fiche mâle ;- an independent and removable member having arrangements to be adapted on a part of the body of the male plug;
- l'organe support étant équipé, avec capacité d'articulation, d'un élément faisant office de levier et apte à coopérer en appui, avec une partie de la fiche femelle pour provoquer, sous un effet de basculement, l'extraction de la fiche mâle par rapport à ladite fiche femelle sans arrachement de cette dernière. Pour résoudre le problème posé d'assurer l'extraction progressive de la fiche mâle sous un effet de basculement contrôlé, l'élément faisant office de levier est composé de deux bras parallèles articulés sur des ergots formés en débordement des côtés latéraux de l'organe support.the support member being equipped, with articulation capacity, with an element acting as a lever and capable of cooperating in support, with a part of the female plug to cause, under a tilting effect, the extraction of the male plug relative to said female plug without tearing off the latter. To solve the problem posed of ensuring the gradual extraction of the male plug under a controlled tilting effect, the element acting as a lever is composed of two parallel arms articulated on lugs formed in overflow from the lateral sides of the member support.
Les deux bras sont réunis à leur partie supérieure par une branche transversale.The two arms are joined at their upper part by a transverse branch.
Avantageusement, la branche transversale fait office de support de marquage publicitaire.Advantageously, the transverse branch acts as an advertising marking support.
Pour résoudre le problème posé de pouvoir manœuvrer facilement l'élément faisant office de levier, les extrémités libres des bras recevant la branche transversale sont orientées angulairement pour être dégagées de la face frontale de la fiche femelle, en position de connexion.To solve the problem posed of being able to easily maneuver the element acting as a lever, the free ends of the arms receiving the transverse branch are angularly oriented so as to be released from the front face of the female plug, in the connection position.
Pour résoudre le problème posé d'assurer l'adaptation de l'organe support par rapport au corps de la fiche mâle, ledit organe support délimite une structure géométrique fermée de forme générale quadrangulaire présentant une ouverture centrale pour l'engagement du corps de la fiche mâle.To solve the problem of ensuring the adaptation of the support member relative to the body of the male plug, said support member defines a closed geometric structure of generally quadrangular shape having a central opening for the engagement of the body of the plug male.
Pour résoudre le problème posé d'assurer l'indexation angulaire et la retenue de l'organe support par rapport au corps de la fiche mâle, l' ouverture centrale présente des ergots diamétralement opposés et aptes à coopérer avec des rainures que présente d'origine le corps de la fiche mâle, pour assurer une indexation angulaire. Pour résoudre le problème posé de ne pas modifier les conditions du contact électrique entre la fiche mâle et la fiche femelle, telles qu'imposées par les normes, la structure géométrique de l'organe support présente un évidemment pour le passage d'une partie du cordon d'alimentation de la fiche mâle.To solve the problem posed of ensuring the angular indexing and the retention of the support member relative to the body of the male plug, the central opening has diametrically opposite lugs and able to cooperate with grooves that present from origin the body of the male plug, to ensure angular indexing. To resolve the problem posed of not modifying the conditions of the electrical contact between the male plug and the female plug, as imposed by the standards, the geometrical structure of the support member obviously presents for the passage of part of the power cord of the male plug.
L'invention est exposée ci-après plus en détail à l'aide des figures des dessins annexés dans lesquels :The invention is set out below in more detail with the aid of the figures of the appended drawings in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une forme de réalisation du dispositif selon l'invention ;- Figure 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the device according to the invention;

- la figure 4 est une vue correspondant à la figure 3 montrant l'extraction de la prise mâle par rapport à la prise femelle au moyen du dispositif selon l'invention ; la figure 5 est une vue en coupe transversale, considérée selon la ligne 5-5 de la figure 3.- Figure 4 is a view corresponding to Figure 3 showing the extraction of the male plug relative to the female plug by means of the device according to the invention; FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view, seen along line 5-5 of FIG. 3.
Le dispositif selon l'invention trouve une application pour tout ensemble des prises électriques de courant comprenant une fiche mâle (FM) et une fiche femelle (FF) de conception parfaitement connue pour un homme du métier et correspondant aux normes électriques en vigueur.The device according to the invention finds an application for any set of electrical current sockets comprising a male plug (FM) and a female plug (FF) of a design perfectly known to a person skilled in the art and corresponding to the electrical standards in force.
Avantageusement, mais non limitativement, le dispositif trouve une application particulièrement intéressante dans le cas de prises de fiches mâles présentant un corps cylindrique équipé d'au moins deux plots de connexion et d'un plot de mise à la terre.Advantageously, but not limited to, the device finds a particularly advantageous application in the case of plug sockets plugs having a cylindrical body equipped with at least two connection studs and a grounding stud.
Comme le montre la figure 1 , le dispositif d'extraction comprend un organe support ( 1 ) présentant des agencements pour être adapté, d'une manière démontable, sur une partie du corps de la fiche mâle (FM).As shown in Figure 1, the extraction device comprises a support member (1) having arrangements to be adapted, in a removable manner, on a part of the body of the male plug (FM).
L'organe support ( 1) est donc totalement indépendant de la fiche mâleThe support member (1) is therefore completely independent of the male plug.
(FM).(FM).
Par exemple, l'organe (1) délimite une structure géométrique fermée, de forme générale quadrangulaire, présentant une ouverture centrale (l a) pour l'engagement du corps de la fiche mâle (FM). Si l'on considère les fiches mâles, telles que normalisées, l'ouverture (l a) présente donc une forme générale circulaire pour permettre le centrage de la partie correspondante du corps de la prise qui est cylindrique. L'ouverture (la) présente des ergots diamétralement opposés (lb) etFor example, the member (1) defines a closed geometric structure, of generally quadrangular shape, having a central opening (l a) for the engagement of the body of the male plug (FM). If we consider the male plugs, as normalized, the opening (l a) therefore has a generally circular shape to allow centering of the corresponding part of the body of the socket which is cylindrical. The opening (la) has diametrically opposite lugs (lb) and
( l e) aptes à coopérer avec des rainures que présente d'origine le corps de la fiche mâle (FM) assurant ainsi une indexation angulaire de l'ensemble de l'organe support ( 1) d'une part et son blocage en translation, d'autre part.(the) capable of cooperating with grooves that the body of the male plug (FM) has from the outset, thus ensuring angular indexing of the assembly of the support member (1) on the one hand and its locking in translation, on the other hand.
L'organe support (1) est équipé, avec capacité d'articulation, d'un élément (2) faisant office de levier, et apte à coopérer en appui avec une partie de la fiche femelle (FF) pour provoquer, sous un effet de basculement, l'extraction de la fiche mâle (FM) par rapport à ladite fiche femelle (FF) et sans arrachement de cette dernière. Dans ce but, l'élément (2) est composé de deux bras parallèles (2a) etThe support member (1) is equipped, with articulation capacity, with an element (2) acting as a lever, and capable of cooperating in support with a part of the female plug (FF) to cause, under an effect tilting, the extraction of the male plug (FM) relative to said female plug (FF) and without tearing of the latter. For this purpose, the element (2) is composed of two parallel arms (2a) and
(2b) articulés sur des ergots (3) formés en débordement des côtés latéraux de la structure de l'organe support (1). Les bras (2a) et (2b) sont réunis, à leur partie supérieure, par une branche transversale (2c). D'une manière importante, cette branche transversale est dimensionnée pour faire office de support de marquage publicitaire.(2b) articulated on lugs (3) formed in overflow from the lateral sides of the structure of the support member (1). The arms (2a) and (2b) are joined, at their upper part, by a transverse branch (2c). Importantly, this transverse branch is sized to act as an advertising marking support.
Les deux bras (2a) et (2b) sont coudés, de sorte que leur extrémité équipée de la branche transversale (2c), est orientée angulairement pour être dégagée de la face frontale de la fiche femelle (FF) après engagement de la fiche mâle (FM) équipée de l'organe (1).The two arms (2a) and (2b) are bent, so that their end equipped with the transverse branch (2c), is angularly oriented to be released from the front face of the female plug (FF) after engagement of the male plug (FM) equipped with the member (1).
A l'opposé de leur partie recevant la branche transversale (2c), les deux bras (2a) et (2b) sont profilés par une forme arrondie (2a 1 ) et (2b 1 ) apte à prendre appui sur une partie de la fiche femelle (FF).In contrast to their part receiving the transverse branch (2c), the two arms (2a) and (2b) are profiled by a rounded shape (2a 1) and (2b 1) able to bear on part of the plug. female (FF).
Pour assurer un positionnement du levier (2) par rapport à l'organe support (1), notamment avant montage dudit organe (1) sur le corps de la fiche mâle (FM), l'organe (1) et le ou les bras (2a) et (2b) présentent une languette débordante (4) apte à assurer la butée des deux bras (2a) et (2b) selon deux positions extrêmes d'utilisation.To ensure positioning of the lever (2) relative to the support member (1), in particular before mounting of said member (1) on the body of the male plug (FM), the member (1) and the arm (s) (2a) and (2b) have an overhanging tongue (4) capable of ensuring the abutment of the two arms (2a) and (2b) in two extreme positions of use.
A noter également que l'organe support (1) présente tout type d'agencement afin de ne pas gêner le contact électrique entre la fiche mâle et la fiche femelle, selon les normes en vigueur. Ainsi, l'organe (1 ) présente facialement, au niveau de sa base, un évidement (ld) notamment, pour le passage de la partie de raccordement entre le cordon électrique (C) et le corps de la fiche mâle (FM).Note also that the support member (1) has any type of arrangement so as not to hinder the electrical contact between the male plug and the female plug, according to the standards in force. Thus, the member (1) has a face, at its base, a recess (ld) in particular, for the passage of the connection part between the electrical cord (C) and the body of the male plug (FM).
L'utilisation du dispositif d'extraction selon l'invention est particulièrement simple, sure et efficace. Il suffit d'adapter l'organe support ( 1 ) sur le corps de la fiche mâle (FM) qui peut être engagée normalement dans la fiche femelle correspondante (FF). A noter que l'épaisseur de l'ensemble du dispositif, notamment de la structure de l'organe support (1) et des bras de levier (2a) et (2b), est déterminée pour ne pas affecter la bonne qualité du contact électrique entre les plots correspondants des fiches mâle et femelle.The use of the extraction device according to the invention is particularly simple, safe and effective. It suffices to adapt the support member (1) to the body of the male plug (FM) which can be engaged normally in the corresponding female plug (FF). Note that the thickness of the entire device, in particular the structure of the support member (1) and the lever arms (2a) and (2b), is determined so as not to affect the good quality of the electrical contact between the corresponding studs of the male and female plugs.
On renvoie à la figure 3 qui montre la fiche mâle (FM) équipée du dispositif et connectée sur la fiche femelle correspondante (FF). Pour assurer l'extraction de la fiche mâle (FM), il suffit d'exercer, au niveau de la branche (2c), un simple effet de basculement selon la flèche (F). On note que les extrémités des bras de levier (2a) et (2b) prennent appui sur la partie correspondante de la fiche femelle ce qui provoque une force antagoniste à la fiche mâle et, d'une manière concomitante, son extraction, sans arrachement, de la fiche femelle (figure 4).We refer to Figure 3 which shows the male plug (FM) equipped with the device and connected to the corresponding female plug (FF). To ensure the extraction of the male plug (FM), it suffices to exert, at the branch (2c), a simple tilting effect according to the arrow (F). It is noted that the ends of the lever arms (2a) and (2b) bear on the corresponding part of the female plug which causes a force opposing the male plug and, concomitantly, its extraction, without tearing, of the female plug (figure 4).
Bien évidemment, l'ensemble du dispositif tel que décrit et illustré, peut être exécuté en toutes formes et dimensions. Avantageusement, l'ensemble peut être exécuté par injection de matière plastique.Obviously, the entire device as described and illustrated, can be executed in all shapes and sizes. Advantageously, the assembly can be executed by injection of plastic material.
De même, sans pour cela sortir du cadre de l'invention, la structure de l'organe support peut être ouverte, afin de pouvoir adapter ledit organe sur la partie correspondante du corps de la fiche mâle, y compris lorsque cette dernière est engagée dans la partie correspondante de la fiche femelle.Likewise, without departing from the scope of the invention, the structure of the support member can be opened, in order to be able to adapt said member to the corresponding part of the body of the male plug, including when the latter is engaged in the corresponding part of the female plug.
D'une manière générale, la structure de l'organe support est conformée pour être adaptée sur tous types de fiches mâles normalisées telles qu'utilisées dans les différents pays. WIn general, the structure of the support member is shaped to be adapted to all types of standardized male plugs as used in the different countries. W
Les avantages ressortent bien de la description, en particulier on souligne et on rappelle :The advantages clearly emerge from the description, in particular it is emphasized and recalled:
- la totale indépendance du dispositif d'extraction par rapport à la fiche mâle qui demeure réalisée, de manière connue, sans aucune modification ;- the total independence of the extraction device with respect to the male plug which remains produced, in a known manner, without any modification;
- la facilité d'utilisation ;- utilisation facility ;
- le coût de revient réduit ;- reduced cost price;
- la possibilité de faire office de support publicitaire. - the possibility of acting as an advertising medium.
