Definitions
- the present invention relates to a machine for labeling objects, in particular fruit or vegetables, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the arm has a blade around which the band passes to form the cusp.
- the arm is pivoted relative to the body and serves for the application of separate tags to crawl on fruits or vegetables.
- the fruits or vegetables are arranged in cells of alveolar plates.
- honeycomb plates themselves be arranged in crates or trays whose side edges extend from their bottoms above the fruits or vegetables.
- the tray then pushes the arm that tilts up to let the front edge of the tray. Then, the arm falls back inside the tray to carry out the labeling which is triggered from signals provided by a detection and identification sensor of the tray.
- FR-2,719,283 proposed a solution to this problem by using means for lifting and lowering labeling machines.
- the labeling machines are lifted so that their arms pass over the front edge of the tray.
- the machines are then lowered so that their arms penetrate inside the tray to label the fruits or vegetables it contains.
- An object of the invention is to solve these problems by providing a machine of the aforementioned type which allows, simply and economically, a satisfactory labeling of objects placed in containers with projecting edges above the objects.
- the subject of the invention is a machine according to the characterizing part of claim 1.
- the machine may optionally comprise one or more of the features of claims 2 to 12.
- the invention further relates to a labeling installation comprising at least one labeling machine as defined above and means for conveying containers containing objects to be labeled.
- the protection means of the downstream section of the strip are arranged behind the downstream section with respect to the conveying direction of the containers.
- the machines 5 being identical, only one machine 5 will be described later.
- the body 15, through which the machine 5 is mounted on the frame 7, comprises a plate 26 for supporting the coil 16 and a housing 28 enclosing a portion of the drive mechanism 24.
- the plate 26 and the housing 28 are integral with each other, as will be described later with regard to the figures 6 and 7 .
- the plate 26 is for example made of plastic and has openings, one of which delimits a gripping handle 30.
- the housing 28 is for example made of metal.
- the pivoting arm 20 comprises a substantially rectangular blade 32 bordered on the left (as seen in FIG. figure 2 ) by a lateral flange 33 which extends substantially over the entire length of the pivoting arm 20, and to the right by a first upper lateral wing 34 and a second shorter second lower lateral wing 35.
- the arm 20 also comprises an angle bracket 37 which itself comprises a lateral flange 38 fixed, for example by screwing, on the lateral flange 33 and a plate 40 which extends under the blade 32 at a distance and substantially parallel to the blade 32.
- the plate 40 has substantially the same dimensions as the blade 32. In variants, the plate 40 may have a length different from that of the blade 32.
- the blade 32 and the plate 40 delimit between them a flat passage 42.
- the plate 40 has for example two oblong openings 44. Note that the blade 32 may also have one or more openings.
- a tab 46 carrying a lower wheel 48, is also mounted on the wing 33, to be disposed above the blade 32.
- the upper end of the arm 20 is mounted via a pivot shaft 50 on the plate 26.
- the arm 20 protrudes from the plate 26 downwards, that is to say toward the conveyor belt 2, and forwardly with respect to the conveying direction C.
- the arm 20 is pivotable relative to the body 15 about a pivot axis P between a lowered position, illustrated by the figure 3 , and a raised position not shown.
- the machine 5 comprises a spring 52 for returning the arm 20 to its lowered position.
- this spring 52 is provided on the side of the plate 26 opposite that on which the arm 20, the coil 16 and the drive mechanism 24 are arranged.
- This spring 52 is connected to the side wing 33 of the arm 20 through a screw passing through a slot 53 in an arc.
- the pivot shaft 50 extends between the lateral wings 33 and 34 and protrudes to the left beyond the wing 33.
- the arm 20 further comprises a rod 54 arranged slightly rearwardly relative to the pivot shaft 50 and which also extends between the lateral wings 33 and 34 of the arm 20.
- the strip 17 extends from the spool 16 downwards and rearwardly to the arm 20.
- the band 17 then passes between the flanges 33 and 34 and around the pivot shaft 50 which forms upstream return member of the band 17 by changing the direction in which the band 17 extends.
- the band 17 then extends downwardly and forwards until it recoils 22 by passing over the blade 32, under the tab 46 and between the wings 33 and 35. This is illustrated in particular by the part enlarged ring of the figure 3 where the section of the strip 17 located upstream of the cusp 22 has been designated by the reference numeral 56.
- the cusp 22 is formed by passing the band 17 around the lower edge of the blade 32.
- the band 17 passes into the flat passage 42 thus going upwards and backwards along the arm 20.
- This section 58 is substantially parallel to the blade 32 and to the plate 40.
- the band 17 passes on the rod 54 which forms downstream member returning the band 17 to the mechanism 24 for driving the band.
- the means 21 for guiding the band 17 thus comprise the shaft 50, the blade 32, the wings 33 to 35 and the rod 54.
- section 56 of the strip 17, the strip 32, the section 58 of the strip 17 and the plate 40 are arranged one behind the other with respect to the conveying direction C.
- the spur wheel 61 and the spool 62 are made integral in rotation by means of a belt 63.
- the pin wheel 61 is integral with a coaxial pinion 65.
- the drive mechanism 24 further comprises motor means disposed in the housing 28.
- motor means comprise for example an electric motor or a linear electric actuator or a rotary pneumatic cylinder as described in FR-2,821,333 or a linear pneumatic cylinder as described in FR-2,619,079 . Such an element was not represented on the Figures 1 to 5 .
- These motor means further comprise an output gear 66 meshing with the pinion 65 to cause the rotation of the pin wheel 61 and thus the driving of the band 17 and its rewinding on the coil 62.
- FIGS. 3 to 5 illustrate the behavior of the machine 5 when objects to be labeled 67 such as apples are placed in a crate or tray 68 having projecting side edges above the objects. In this case, it is the front and rear edges of the plate 68.
- the tray 68 is placed on the carpet 2 and is thus conveyed in the direction C.
- the sensor 11 detects the presence of the plate 68 and identifies it.
- the front edge 70 then bears against the plate 40 of the arm 20 and then pushes the arm 20 which pivots about the pivot axis P upwards, that is to say towards its raised position.
- the arm 20 can thus pass over the front edge 70 of the plate 68 as illustrated by the figure 4 , without the plate 68 coming into contact with the band 17.
- the plate 68 continuing its movement, the arm 20 is then returned to the inside of the plate 68 by the spring 52.
- the drive of the band 17 by the drive mechanism 24 is then triggered by the unit 13 as a function of the type of the plate 68 identified by the sensor 11.
- the unit 13 can also, in variants, control the lateral movement of machine 5 along the gantry 7 to adapt to the type of the tray 68. Labels 18 will then be separated one after the other at the cusp 22 and applied by the wheel 48 to the objects 67 as illustrated by the figure 5 .
- the plate 68 will not pull the band 17 through the plate 40 which protects its downstream section 58.
- means for protecting the band 17 having a structure other than that of the plate 40 may be arranged downstream of the cusp 22 to fulfill this same function and achieve the same result.
- the upstream return member 50 is centered on the pivot axis P.
- the return 50 does not move and will not create a voltage or a loop in the band 17 likely to disturb the labeling.
- the upstream return member may be distinct from the rotation shaft 50 and not be exactly centered on the pivot axis P but disposed at a short distance therefrom.
- downstream return member 54 is disposed near the pivot axis P.
- the figures 6 and 7 illustrate optional features of the machine 5 which are advantageously present and which relate to the assembly of the support plate 26 and the housing 28.
- the body 15 comprises means 74 for assembling the plate 26 to the casing 28.
- the latching finger 80 is rotatably mounted on the housing 28 to be rotatable about an axis of rotation R2.
- the housing 28 further comprises a spring 86 for restoring the latching finger 80.
- the lug 84 will then bear on a ramp surface 90 before the ratchet finger 80 and thus cause a rotation of the finger 80 about the axis R2 in the counterclockwise direction as seen on the figure 6 .
- the spring 86 will then tighten. This rotation about the axis R2 of the finger 80 allows the pin 84 to engage in the groove 82. The spring 86 then recalls the finger 80 downwards so that the pin 84 is applied against the bottom of the 82. The finger 80 is then in the locking position of the lug 84.
- the plate 26 is thus integral with the housing 28 and the pinions 65 and 66 mesh with each other, as illustrated by the figure 7 .
- the plate 26 When the housing 28 is mounted on the gantry 7, it is sufficient to release the plate 26 to pull the handle 30 sufficiently strongly forward so that the lug 84, bearing on the front wall of the groove 82, pushes the finger 80 to its release position and thus emerges from the groove 82. Similarly, the pivot 76 is released from the groove 78. The plate 26 can be released from the housing 28 in a single gesture.
- the assembly means 74 being snap-fitting means, the assembly of the plate 26 on the housing 28 is particularly fast.
- the machine 5 thus comprises a belt unit 92, comprising the plate 26 and the band 17, and a drive unit 94 comprising the casing 28 and the motor means 66 and 71, which units 92 and 94 can be assembled and separated easily. and quickly.
- assembly means 74 can be envisaged.
- the finger 80 and the pivot 76 can be provided on the belt unit 92, and the lug 84 and the groove 78 on the drive unit 94.
- the assembly means 74 are not not necessarily snap fit means.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne une machine d'étiquetage d'objets, en particulier de fruits ou de légumes, selon le préambule de la revendication 1.The present invention relates to a machine for labeling objects, in particular fruit or vegetables, according to the preamble of claim 1.
Une telle machine est décrite dans
Une autre machine du type précité est décrite par exemple dans
Généralement, plusieurs machines de ce type sont disposées les unes à côté des autres au-dessus d'un tapis de convoyage pour former une installation d'étiquetage.Generally, several machines of this type are arranged next to one another above a conveyor belt to form a labeling installation.
Les fruits ou légumes sont disposés dans des alvéoles de plaques alvéolaires.The fruits or vegetables are arranged in cells of alveolar plates.
De plus en plus, on souhaite que de telles plaques alvéolaires soient elles-mêmes disposées dans des cageots ou plateaux dont des bords latéraux s'étendent depuis leurs fonds au-dessus des fruits ou légumes.Increasingly, it is desired that such honeycomb plates themselves be arranged in crates or trays whose side edges extend from their bottoms above the fruits or vegetables.
Si un tel plateau est disposé sur le tapis de convoyage, le bord avant du plateau, par rapport au sens de convoyage, va entrer en contact avec le bras et plus particulièrement avec le tronçon de la bande situé en aval du rebroussement.If such a plate is disposed on the conveyor belt, the front edge of the plate, relative to the conveying direction, will come into contact with the arm and more particularly with the section of the strip located downstream of the cusp.
Le plateau pousse alors le bras qui bascule vers le haut pour laisser passer le bord avant du plateau. Ensuite, le bras retombe à l'intérieur du plateau pour procéder à l'étiquetage qui est déclenché à partir de signaux fournis par un capteur de détection et d'identification du plateau.The tray then pushes the arm that tilts up to let the front edge of the tray. Then, the arm falls back inside the tray to carry out the labeling which is triggered from signals provided by a detection and identification sensor of the tray.
Le bord avant du plateau s'appuyant sur le bras par l'intermédiaire du tronçon aval de la bande, il applique sur la bande des efforts qui peuvent modifier sa tension et dégrader la qualité de l'étiquetage ultérieur, par exemple en modifiant la position des étiquettes par rapport au rebroussement.The front edge of the plate resting on the arm via the downstream section of the band, it applies on the band efforts that can change its tension and degrade the quality of the subsequent labeling, for example by changing the position tags versus culling.
Un tel phénomène se produit également lorsque le bras est soulevé par le bord arrière du plateau, qui fait aussi saillie au-dessus des fruits ou légumes contenus dans le plateau.Such a phenomenon also occurs when the arm is lifted by the rear edge of the tray, which also protrudes above the fruits or vegetables contained in the tray.
Lorsqu'un plateau est détecté, les machines d'étiquetage sont soulevées pour que leurs bras passent au-dessus du bord avant du plateau.When a tray is detected, the labeling machines are lifted so that their arms pass over the front edge of the tray.
Les machines sont ensuite abaissées pour que leurs bras pénètrent à l'intérieur du plateau afin d'étiqueter les fruits ou légumes qu'il contient.The machines are then lowered so that their arms penetrate inside the tray to label the fruits or vegetables it contains.
Toutefois, ces opérations de soulèvement et d'abaissement s'avèrent délicates et coûteuses à mettre en oeuvre, notamment en raison du poids des machines qu'il convient de soulever et d'abaisser.However, these lifting and lowering operations are difficult and expensive to implement, especially because of the weight of the machines that must be raised and lowered.
Un but de l'invention est de résoudre ces problèmes en fournissant une machine du type précité qui permette, simplement et économiquement, un étiquetage satisfaisant d'objets placés dans des conteneurs à bords en saillie au-dessus des objets.An object of the invention is to solve these problems by providing a machine of the aforementioned type which allows, simply and economically, a satisfactory labeling of objects placed in containers with projecting edges above the objects.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une machine selon la partie caractérisante de la revendication 1.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a machine according to the characterizing part of claim 1.
Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation, la machine peut éventuellement comprendre l'une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques des revendications 2 à 12.According to particular embodiments, the machine may optionally comprise one or more of the features of
L'invention a en outre pour objet une installation d'étiquetage comprenant au moins une machine d'étiquetage telle que définie ci-dessus et des moyens de convoyage de conteneurs contenant des objets à étiqueter.The invention further relates to a labeling installation comprising at least one labeling machine as defined above and means for conveying containers containing objects to be labeled.
Selon une variante, les moyens de protection du tronçon aval de la bande sont disposés en arrière du tronçon aval par rapport au sens de convoyage des conteneurs.According to one variant, the protection means of the downstream section of the strip are arranged behind the downstream section with respect to the conveying direction of the containers.

Le corps 15, par l'intermédiaire duquel la machine 5 est montée sur le portique 7, comprend une platine 26 de support de la bobine 16 et un boîtier 28 enfermant une partie du mécanisme d'entraînement 24.The
La platine 26 et le boîtier 28 sont solidaires l'un de l'autre, comme cela sera décrit ultérieurement en regard des
La platine 26 est par exemple réalisée en matière plastique et présente des ouvertures dont l'une délimite une poignée de saisie 30.The
Le boîtier 28 est par exemple réalisé en métal.The
Le bras pivotant 20 comprend une lame 32 sensiblement rectangulaire bordée à gauche (comme vu sur la
Le bras 20 comprend également une cornière 37 qui comporte elle-même une aile latérale 38 fixée, par exemple par vissage, sur l'aile latérale 33 et une plaque 40 qui s'étend sous la lame 32 à distance et sensiblement parallèlement à celle-ci. La plaque 40 possède sensiblement les mêmes dimensions que la lame 32. Dans des variantes, la plaque 40 peut avoir une longueur différente de celle de la lame 32.The
Ainsi, la lame 32 et la plaque 40 délimitent entre-elles un passage plat 42. La plaque 40 présente par exemple deux ouvertures oblongues 44. On notera que la lame 32 peut également présenter une ou plusieurs ouvertures.Thus, the
Une patte 46, portant une roulette inférieure 48, est également montée sur l'aile 33, pour être disposée au-dessus de la lame 32.A
L'extrémité supérieure du bras 20 est montée par l'intermédiaire d'un arbre de pivotement 50 sur la platine 26.The upper end of the
Le bras 20 fait saillie depuis la platine 26 vers le bas, c'est-Ã -dire vers le tapis de convoyage 2, et vers l'avant par rapport au sens de convoyage C.The

Le bras 20 comprend en outre une tige 54 disposée légèrement en arrière par rapport à l'arbre de pivotement 50 et qui s'étend également entre les ailes latérales 33 et 34 du bras 20.The
La bande 17 s'étend depuis la bobine 16 vers le bas et vers l'arrière jusqu'au bras 20.The
La bande 17 passe alors entre les ailes 33 et 34 et autour de l'arbre de pivotement 50 qui forme organe amont de renvoi de la bande 17 en modifiant la direction selon laquelle la bande 17 s'étend.The
La bande 17 s'étend alors vers le bas et vers l'avant jusqu'au rebroussement 22 en passant au-dessus de la lame 32, sous la patte 46 et entre les ailes 33 et 35. Cela est illustré en particulier par la partie cerclée agrandie de la

Les moyens 21 de guidage de la bande 17 comprennent donc l'arbre 50, la lame 32, les ailes 33 Ã 35 et la tige 54.The means 21 for guiding the
On notera également que le tronçon 56 de la bande 17, la lame 32, le tronçon 58 de la bande 17 et la plaque 40 sont disposés les uns derrière les autres par rapport au sens de convoyage C.It will also be noted that the
Le mécanisme 24 d'entraînement comprend successivement depuis le bras 20 :
- un rouleau fou 60,
une roue 61 Ã picots, etune bobine 62 d'enroulement de la bande 17.
- a
crazy roll 60, - a
spur wheel 61, and - a

Le plateau 68 est posé sur le tapis 2 et est donc convoyé dans le sens C.The
Lorsque le bord avant 70 arrive à proximité de la machine 5, le capteur 11 détecte la présence du plateau 68 et l'identifie. Le bord avant 70 prend ensuite appui sur la plaque 40 du bras 20 et pousse alors le bras 20 qui pivote autour de l'axe de pivotement P vers le haut, c'est-à -dire vers sa position soulevée. Le bras 20 peut ainsi passer au-dessus du bord avant 70 du plateau 68 comme illustré par la
Le plateau 68 poursuivant son déplacement, le bras 20 est ensuite rappelé vers l'intérieur du plateau 68 par le ressort 52. L'entraînement de la bande 17 par le mécanisme d'entraînement 24 est alors déclenché par l'unité 13 en fonction du type du plateau 68 identifié par le capteur 11. L'unité 13 peut également, dans des variantes, commander le déplacement latéral de machine 5 le long du portique 7 pour s'adapter au type du plateau 68. Des étiquettes 18 vont alors être séparées les unes après les autres au rebroussement 22 et appliquées par la roulette 48 sur les objets 67 comme illustré par la
Après l'étiquetage des objets 67 par la machine 5, le bord arrière du plateau 68 va pousser le bras 20 qui va ainsi sortir du plateau 68.After the labeling of the
Comme dans le cas du bord avant 70, cette poussée sur le bras 20 va s'effectuer par l'intermédiaire de la plaque 40 et donc sans entrée en contact du plateau 68 avec le tronçon aval 58 de la bande 17.As in the case of the
Ainsi, lors du passage du bras 20 au-dessus des bords avant et arrière du plateau 68, le plateau 68 ne va pas tirer la bande 17 grâce à la plaque 40 qui protège son tronçon aval 58.Thus, during the passage of the
On observera que des moyens de protection de la bande 17 ayant une autre structure que celle de la plaque 40 peuvent être disposés en aval du rebroussement 22 pour remplir cette même fonction et atteindre ce même résultat.It will be observed that means for protecting the
On observera que la position de l'organe amont de renvoi 50 de la bande 17 permet également, et indépendamment de la présence de la plaque 40 de protection de la bande 17, de limiter les modifications de la tension de la bande 17 et de sa position lors du soulèvement du bras 20.It will be observed that the position of the
En effet, l'organe de renvoi amont 50 est centré sur l'axe de pivotement P. Ainsi, lors du pivotement du bras 20 autour de cet axe P, l'organe de renvoi 50 ne se déplace pas et ne risque pas de créer une tension ou une boucle dans la bande 17 susceptible de perturber l'étiquetage.Indeed, the
On notera que dans une variante, l'organe de renvoi amont peut être distinct de l'arbre de rotation 50 et ne pas être exactement centré sur l'axe de pivotement P mais disposé à faible distance de celui-ci.Note that in a variant, the upstream return member may be distinct from the
On notera également que l'organe de renvoi aval 54 est disposé à proximité de l'axe de pivotement P. Ainsi, si un étiquetage est effectué alors que le bras 20 est soulevé par rapport à sa position abaissée, le retour vers cette position abaissée ne modifie que très légèrement la tension de la bande 17. Cette caractéristique, qui n'intervient pas lors du passage du bras 20 au-dessus des bords du plateau 68, peut cependant s'avérer avantageuse.Note also that the
Les
Sur ces figures, outre le pignon 66, le reste des moyens moteurs du mécanisme d'entraînement 24 a été représenté très schématiquement en traits mixtes et désigné par la référence numérique 71.In these figures, in addition to the
Le corps 15 comprend des moyens 74 d'assemblage de la platine 26 au boîtier 28.The
Ces moyens 74 d'assemblage comprennent :
un pivot 76 prévu dans le boîtier 28 et coopérant avec une gorge semi-circulaire 78 de la platine 26 pour former une liaison rotative autour d'un axe de rotation R1, et- un doigt
mobile d'encliquetage 80 comprenant unegorge 82 destinée à recevoirun ergot 84 prévu sur la platine 26.
- a
pivot 76 provided in thehousing 28 and cooperating with asemicircular groove 78 of theplate 26 to form a rotatable connection about an axis of rotation R1, and - a detent
movable finger 80 comprising agroove 82 intended to receive alug 84 provided on theplate 26.
Le doigt d'encliquetage 80 est monté à rotation sur le boîtier 28 pour pouvoir tourner autour d'un axe de rotation R2. Le boîtier 28 comprend en outre un ressort 86 de rappel du doigt d'encliquetage 80.The latching
Pour assembler la platine 26 au boîtier 28, on vient placer le pivot 76 dans la gorge 78 de la platine 26. Cette opération peut être effectuée manuellement très facilement grâce à la poignée 30. La platine 26 peut alors tourner autour de l'axe de rotation R1 par rapport au boîtier 28. On fait alors tourner la platine 26 vers le bas comme illustré par la flèche 88 sur la
L'ergot 84 va alors prendre appui sur une surface de rampe avant 90 du doigt d'encliquetage 80 et provoquer ainsi une rotation du doigt 80 autour de l'axe R2 dans le sens anti-horaire comme vu sur la
Le ressort 86 va alors se tendre. Cette rotation autour de l'axe R2 du doigt 80 permet à l'ergot 84 de s'engager dans la gorge 82. Le ressort 86 rappelle alors le doigt 80 vers le bas pour que l'ergot 84 soit appliqué contre le fond de la gorge 82. Le doigt 80 est alors en position de blocage de l'ergot 84.The
La platine 26 est ainsi solidaire du boîtier 28 et les pignons 65 et 66 engrènent l'un avec l'autre, comme illustré par la
Pour libérer la platine 26, on peut pousser, par exemple avec un doigt, la surface de rampe 90 pour déplacer le doigt d'encliquetage 80 vers une position de libération de l'ergot 84. On peut ainsi faire pivoter la platine 26 dans le sens opposé au sens 88. Ensuite, on dégage le pivot 76 de la gorge 78 en soulevant la platine 26 vers le haut.To release the
Lorsque le boîtier 28 est monté sur le portique 7, il suffit pour libérer la platine 26 de tirer sur la poignée 30 suffisamment fort vers l'avant pour que l'ergot 84, prenant appui sur la paroi avant de la gorge 82, pousse le doigt 80 vers sa position de libération et se dégage ainsi de la gorge 82. De même, le pivot 76 se dégage de la gorge 78. La platine 26 peut ainsi être libérée du boîtier 28 d'un seul geste.When the
Les moyens d'assemblage 74 étant des moyens d'assemblage par encliquetage, l'assemblage de la platine 26 sur le boîtier 28 est particulièrement rapide.The assembly means 74 being snap-fitting means, the assembly of the
La machine 5 comprend ainsi une unité à bande 92, comprenant la platine 26 et la bande 17, et une unité d'entraînement 94 comprenant le boîtier 28 et les moyens moteurs 66 et 71, lesquelles unités 92 et 94 peuvent être assemblées et séparées facilement et rapidement.The
Ainsi, on peut, lors de l'utilisation de l'installation 1, prévoir un certain nombre d'unités à bande 92 préalablement chargées de bobines 16 pleines.Thus, it is possible, when using the installation 1, to provide a certain number of
Lorsqu'une bobine 16 d'une machine 5 est vide, il suffit de remplacer son unité 92 par une nouvelle unité 92 munie d'une bobine 16 pleine.When a
Une telle opération est particulièrement simple et rapide, notamment par comparaison avec la méthode traditionnelle de remplacement de la bobine 16 directement sur la machine 5.Such an operation is particularly simple and fast, especially by comparison with the traditional method of replacing the
On notera que d'autres structures des moyens 74 d'assemblage que celles décrites peuvent être envisagées. En particulier, le doigt 80 et le pivot 76 peuvent être prévus sur l'unité à bande 92, et l'ergot 84 et la gorge 78 sur l'unité d'entraînement 94. Plus généralement, les moyens 74 d'assemblage ne sont pas nécessairement des moyens d'assemblage par encliquetage.It will be noted that other structures of assembly means 74 than those described can be envisaged. In particular, the
On observera également que ce dernier aspect peut être utilisé indépendamment de ceux décrits précédemment et concernant les moyens de protection de la bande 17 et les organes de renvoi de la bande 17.It will also be observed that the latter aspect can be used independently of those described above and concerning the means for protecting the
