Definitions
- the invention relates to cabinets for agitator pots used for storing pots containing liquid products, such as paints or the like, to keep stirring.
- the invention relates to modular cabinets.
- the first family of machines represents more than 2/3 of the applications of the market. It consists of storing and / or shaking a complete line of paint cans between 20 and 120 basic shades that form the color chart of a paint manufacturer.
- the models of stirring machines are available in several widths of 1 m, 1.50 m or 2 m with between four and seven floors depending on the configuration of the paint lines, preferably six floors for the most common. This type of machines is characterized by monobloc uprights on both sides of the floors.
- the present invention relates more particularly to modular cabinets.
- Cabinets of this type generally comprise modules with pot support shelves arranged one above the other and connected at their ends to uprights.
- the stacking of the unit modules constitutes the structure of the machine.
- the columns thus formed can also be juxtaposed next to each other in alignment or perpendicularly to increase the configuration of the machine from a single width model.
- This set of columns is driven by a single motor with recovery of the continuity of the drive in the bases by systems pulleys / belts.
- a central motor is mounted on a motor base to be connected to a motion transmission system to transmit a rotational movement to agitating blades inside the pots to ensure complete and simultaneous agitation of a whole line of pots of paint, the blades may take the general shape of a propeller.
- the motion transmission system may consist of one or more drive shafts distributed in the uprights of the cabinets and accessible or non-accessible drive chains or belts which are located in the support shelves - thus also designated "Mechanical tablets".
- the interior of these cabinets therefore has a mechanical transmission kinematics that can ensure the agitation of liquid products in the pots stored on the shelves.
- This drive kinematics is generally an indirect drive kinematics and is realized in several stages of reduction to lower the rotational speed of a single motor of asynchronous motor type rotating between 750 and 1800 rpm at 50 or 60 Hz at the required stirring speed of a multitude of stirring blade-type receivers attached to pots agitator lids to rotate between 70 and 120 rpm.
- an intermediate transmission system ensures the continuity of the movement.
- the modules of the cabinet generally consist of a metal structure in which is arranged the transmission system of the movement by pulleys belt or chain associated with a line of drive shafts or screws endless associated with drive belt lines.
- the pots of paint are placed on the shelves, but they can also be hung near the shelves. All combinations can be imagined between the type of transmission and the position of a pot.
- stirring blade drive systems inside the pots are known on the market: a system with paddle type drive heads that cooperate with fingers mounted on a shaft passing through the lid of the pots and supporting the stirring blade inside the pot, and another system with pinions or wheels mounted on the shaft of the stirring blade and driven respectively by a chain or a belt, or by a worm located in the shelves.
- individual paddle type drive heads are provided below the shelves forming as many unit stirring stations as required.
- the paddle-type drive heads of each shelf cooperate with complementary elements mounted on pot agitator covers by means of the protruding fingers of a fork which serve to drive a shaft passing through the agitator cover. which supports a stirring blade inside the pot.
- the stirring stations thus formed are positioned in the axis of the drive heads. This arrangement aligned on coplanar axes ensures the transmission of the mechanical movement step by step.
- a one-piece drive line is provided accessible on the front side of the shelves of the chain or belt type forming stirring zones.
- the drive lines of each shelf cooperate with complementary elements mounted on pots agitator lids through the teeth of a pinion or a wheel and used to drive a shaft passing through the agitator cover which supports a stirring blade inside the pot.
- the stirring zones thus formed are arranged in an offset manner perpendicular to the drive line. This non-aligned arrangement on non-coplanar axes also ensures the transmission of the mechanical movement step by step.
- stirring machines or cabinets must allow quick assembly without tools.
- technical solutions must evolve towards reducing assembly operations for each individual subset.
- the machines must integrate the maximum of preassembled elements to avoid the user assembly time too long.
- the different modules of a stirring cabinet must be as simple as possible to reduce manufacturing costs, in particular by limiting the variety of subassemblies or reducing the diversity of existing models for the purpose of standardization.
- a modular cabinet is already known from the document FR 2 649 911 . Nevertheless, the motion transmission system is very complex and, in particular, the drive pulleys and the pulleys are integral part of the mechanical tablet which complicates the assembly and disassembly of the assembly. In addition, the fact that the line of trees is part of the mechanical tablets, the entire range of stirring machines has different distances between the mechanical tablets that do not reduce the diversity of fabrications sheet metal parts or their simplicity for the entire range of stirring machines. In addition, the cabinet modules are monobloc and assembled at the factory. The packaging is therefore bulky. When receiving the modules from the user, the modules must be assembled on each other by simple plastic spacers for ease of positioning before doing so. the object of a connection by screwing. Such an assembly is long for the user and does not allow to obtain sufficient rigidity of the structure to which it is necessary to place a stiffening strip in the rear portion to secure the articulated unstable assembly.
- a modular cabinet is also known from the document FR 2 783 177 .
- the drive shaft line which rotates a closed loop belt inside a mechanical tabletop drive unit, is in the mechanical shelf.
- the shaft line must be installed floor by floor by the user when mounting the modular stirring machine.
- the amounts of each module are constituted by the establishment of many nested tubes making mounting long and tedious. This tubular structure does not ensure perfect rigidity of the machine which maintains a certain lateral instability.
- the US Patent 5,310,258 discloses a modular cabinet where the driving means agitator pots comprises pulleys and belts interacting with worm.
- the invention must therefore ensure the versatility of storage configurations and / or agitation of a paint line, in a modular and flexible manner and as economically as possible.
- Another object of the invention is to allow limited manipulations of the shaft line to the assembly without tools and to simplify the production of a mechanical tablet to reduce manufacturing costs.
- the drive kinematics can then evolve freely according to the need or not of agitation of the paintings without putting into question the nodal architecture of the machine.
- a reduction in the bulk of the preassembled sub-assemblies for a compact package is also obtained, in particular by dissociating the modular uprights of the structure of a stage.
- the cabinet modules are no longer bulky because of the dissociated components.
- only three preassembled sub-assemblies are provided per cabinet module.
- connection functions between the upright elements and the mechanical tablet are concentrated around a central node which ensures the complete rigidity of the assembly.
- the upright elements and the central connection node are assembled by interlocking and retained by a clipped assembly.
- the central node may also be made of several distinct parts or two symmetrical hermaphrodite parts.
- it is made of plastic and it is the seat of the fixing of many accessory elements such as a worktable, an electronic control box, skins, rear storage shelves, etc.
- the central node Since the central node concentrates all the link functions, it can, therefore, integrate the line of drive shafts. All the link functions are therefore advantageously grouped around a nodal architecture.
- the two upright members and the mechanical shelf of each cabinet module are recessed mounted with a range sufficient to ensure the rigidity of the assembly.
- the rigidity of the frame is ensured by simple recesses that avoid the establishment of conventional rear braces hindering the positioning of rear storage shelf.
- the power transmission elements consist of a line of fractional drive shafts.
- One of the two upright members of each module has a portion of the split drive shaft, and the portion of the split drive shaft is attached to the upright member such that it is free to rotate. and in translation.
- this portion of the split drive shaft can also be attached to the movable member removably.
- the line of split trees is therefore independent of a mechanical tablet.
- the drive shaft line is split ensures the autonomy of a modular upright with, at the same time, an installation with the minimum of manipulations, a reduction of space for the packaging of a Preassembled mechanical shelf and quick disconnection for belt changing and maintenance operations, for example. Since each part of the split drive shaft line is individually fixed to the upright member so that it is free to rotate and translate, the line of shafts is avoided during assembly. of the cabinet. This allows editing operations "blind”. In addition, since the portion of the split drive shaft is free to rotate and translate, there is retained alignment flexibility of the split shafts to ensure the drive whatever the situations of the geometrical defects (due to the positioning of the machine, for example).
- the drive shaft has a shape with a polygonal or curvilinear non-circular section.
- the drive shaft with a non-circular curvilinear shape such as a Torx® type profile can illustrate it by way of example. It can be made by extrusion.
- the drive shaft may also have a hollow core and be made of aluminum. The specific shape of the shaft and its aluminum construction, much lighter than steel shafts, improve the performance of the transmission torque.
- a drive shaft At both ends of a drive shaft are preferably fixed tips that take the geometric shapes of the shaft. These tips provide the connection between the drive pinions of the drive bearings of each central node link.
- the interlocking is performed with a sufficient functional clearance to allow a simple and fast angular self-adjustment of the line of shafts when mounting the two ends of the integrated assembly amount-split shaft on the lower shelf put in place and then the upper shelf on the amount set up. It is therefore possible to provide a flexible connection to absorb the misalignment of a modular structure.
- the mechanical energy required for starting during angular acceleration is optimized by reducing the moments of inertia of the line of trees.
- the end pieces are made of a plastic material sufficiently elastic to withstand shocks at startup and sufficiently hard to ensure the transmission of torque.
- the tips of the shafts are adjusted and immobilized by pins pin type "pin". The number of parts of the line of trees is extremely reduced and gives it great accessibility during a possible disassembly for a belt change operation.
- the base base comprises a motor for driving the driving transmission elements.
- the engine is separable, without disassembly, neither the base base nor the structure of the machine.
- the removable main motor without constraint is therefore easily interchangeable for maintenance operations.
- the mechanical tablet is removable without disassembly of the stirring modules.
- the cabinet comprises at least one cabinet module with support shelves for storing jars without movement transmission elements.
- the invention is achieved by a modular cabinet for storing and driving agitator pots containing liquid products, the modular cabinet comprising a base base on which is mounted at least one cabinet module, and a motion transmission system consisting of driving transmission elements and receiving transmission elements, each cabinet module being composed of two upstanding members and a mechanical shelf for supporting and driving the agitator pots, this cabinet being characterized in that all the driving and receiving transmission elements are disposed inside said mechanical tablet, and in that the mechanical tablet comprises at least one geared motor for driving the motion transmission system .

Description
L'invention concerne les armoires pour pots agitateurs utilisées pour le stockage de pots contenant des produits liquides, tels que des peintures ou analogues, à maintenir sous agitation. En particulier, l'invention concerne les armoires modulaires.The invention relates to cabinets for agitator pots used for storing pots containing liquid products, such as paints or the like, to keep stirring. In particular, the invention relates to modular cabinets.
Depuis une quarantaine d'années, il existe sur le marché de nombreuses armoires de stockage et/ou d'agitation de pots de peinture lesquels sont conditionnés de préférence dans de petits conditionnements de type boîtes cylindriques en métal ou en plastique d'un volume compris entre 0,5 et 5 litres selon les standards connus dans le monde. En général, ces machines ou armoires d'agitation des peintures liquides se divisent en deux grandes familles :
- Les machines (ou armoires) dites « compactes » en raison de la structure monobloc de leurs montants.
- Les machines (ou armoires) dites « modulaires » en raison de la structure fractionnée de leurs montants.
- Machines (or cabinets) called "compact" because of the monobloc structure of their amounts.
- Machines (or cabinets) called "modular" because of the split structure of their amounts.
La première famille de machines représente plus des 2/3 des applications du marché. Elle consiste à stocker et/ou agiter une ligne complète de pots de peinture comprise entre 20 et 120 teintes de base qui forment le nuancier couleur d'un fabricant de peinture. Les modèles de machines d'agitation se déclinent en plusieurs largeurs de 1 m, 1,50 m ou 2 m avec entre quatre et sept étages selon la configuration des lignes de peinture, de préférence six étages pour les plus répandues. Ce type de machines est caractérisé par des montants monoblocs de part et d'autre des étages.The first family of machines represents more than 2/3 of the applications of the market. It consists of storing and / or shaking a complete line of paint cans between 20 and 120 basic shades that form the color chart of a paint manufacturer. The models of stirring machines are available in several widths of 1 m, 1.50 m or 2 m with between four and seven floors depending on the configuration of the paint lines, preferably six floors for the most common. This type of machines is characterized by monobloc uprights on both sides of the floors.
Il y a une vingtaine d'années, un nouveau concept de machine d'agitation modulaire à été lancé sur le marché pour répondre aux attentes des fabricants de peinture en offrant une plus grande souplesse dans la configuration évolutive des lignes de peinture. Ce type de machine est caractérisé par des montants fractionnés correspondant à autant de modules unitaires d'agitation que d'étages souhaités. Ainsi, la machine peut être constituée à la demande à partir d'un seul étage jusqu'à l'empilement de sept étages (ou plus) en fonction du besoin.Twenty years ago, a new concept of modular stirring machine was launched on the market to meet the expectations of paint manufacturers by offering greater flexibility in the evolutionary configuration of paint lines. This type of machine is characterized by fractional amounts corresponding to as many unitary units of agitation as desired stages. Thus, the machine can be formed on demand from a single floor to the stack of seven floors (or more) depending on the need.
La présente invention porte plus particulièrement sur les armoires modulaires. Les armoires de ce type comportent en général des modules avec des étagères support de pots disposées les unes au-dessus des autres et reliés par leurs extrémités à des montants. L'empilement des modules unitaires constitue la structure de la machine. Les colonnes ainsi formées peuvent aussi se juxtaposer l'une à côté de l'autre dans l'alignement ou perpendiculairement pour augmenter la configuration de la machine à partir d'un modèle de largeur unique. Cet ensemble de colonnes est entraîné par un seul moteur avec reprise de la continuité de l'entraînement dans les socles par des systèmes poulies/courroies.The present invention relates more particularly to modular cabinets. Cabinets of this type generally comprise modules with pot support shelves arranged one above the other and connected at their ends to uprights. The stacking of the unit modules constitutes the structure of the machine. The columns thus formed can also be juxtaposed next to each other in alignment or perpendicularly to increase the configuration of the machine from a single width model. This set of columns is driven by a single motor with recovery of the continuity of the drive in the bases by systems pulleys / belts.
Une motorisation centrale est montée sur un socle moteur pour être connectée à un système de transmission de mouvement pour transmettre un mouvement de rotation à des pales agitatrices à l'intérieur des pots afin d'assurer l'agitation complète et simultanée de toute une ligne de pots de peinture, les pales pouvant prendre la forme générale d'hélice. Le système de transmission de mouvement peut être constitué d'un ou de plusieurs arbres d'entraînement répartis dans les montants des armoires et de chaînes ou courroies d'entraînement accessibles ou non qui se trouvent dans les étagères supports - de ce fait, également désignées « tablettes mécaniques ». L'intérieur de ces armoires dispose donc d'une cinématique de transmission mécanique pouvant assurer l'agitation des produits liquides dans les pots stockés sur les étagères. Cette cinématique d'entraînement est en général une cinématique d'entraînement indirecte et est réalisée en plusieurs étages de réduction pour abaisser la vitesse de rotation d'un moteur unique de type moteur asynchrone tournant entre 750 et 1800 tr/mn en 50 ou 60 Hz à la vitesse d'agitation requise d'une multitude de récepteurs de type pale d'agitation solidaires à des couvercles agitateurs de pots devant tourner entre 70 et 120 tr/mn. Ainsi, entre le moteur initial et les récepteurs finaux un système de transmission intermédiaire assure la continuité du mouvement.A central motor is mounted on a motor base to be connected to a motion transmission system to transmit a rotational movement to agitating blades inside the pots to ensure complete and simultaneous agitation of a whole line of pots of paint, the blades may take the general shape of a propeller. The motion transmission system may consist of one or more drive shafts distributed in the uprights of the cabinets and accessible or non-accessible drive chains or belts which are located in the support shelves - thus also designated "Mechanical tablets". The interior of these cabinets therefore has a mechanical transmission kinematics that can ensure the agitation of liquid products in the pots stored on the shelves. This drive kinematics is generally an indirect drive kinematics and is realized in several stages of reduction to lower the rotational speed of a single motor of asynchronous motor type rotating between 750 and 1800 rpm at 50 or 60 Hz at the required stirring speed of a multitude of stirring blade-type receivers attached to pots agitator lids to rotate between 70 and 120 rpm. Thus, between the initial motor and the final receivers an intermediate transmission system ensures the continuity of the movement.
Pour des raisons de stabilité, les modules de l'armoire sont généralement constitués d'une structure métallique dans laquelle est agencée le système de transmission du mouvement par des poulies courroie ou chaîne associé à une ligne d'arbres d'entraînement ou par des vis sans fin associé à des lignes de courroies d'entraînement. Les pots de peinture sont posés sur les étagères, mais ils peuvent être aussi suspendus au voisinage des étagères. Toutes les combinaisons peuvent être imaginées entre le type de transmission et la position d'un pot.For reasons of stability, the modules of the cabinet generally consist of a metal structure in which is arranged the transmission system of the movement by pulleys belt or chain associated with a line of drive shafts or screws endless associated with drive belt lines. The pots of paint are placed on the shelves, but they can also be hung near the shelves. All combinations can be imagined between the type of transmission and the position of a pot.
En général, deux systèmes d'entraînement des pales agitatrices à l'intérieur des pots sont connus sur le marché : un système avec des têtes d'entraînement du type à palette qui coopèrent avec des doigts montés sur un arbre traversant le couvercle du pots et supportant la pale agitatrice à l'intérieur du pot, et un autre système avec des pignons ou des roues montés sur l'arbre de la pale agitatrice et entraînés respectivement soit par une chaîne ou une courroie, soit par une vis sans fin se trouvant dans les étagères.In general, two stirring blade drive systems inside the pots are known on the market: a system with paddle type drive heads that cooperate with fingers mounted on a shaft passing through the lid of the pots and supporting the stirring blade inside the pot, and another system with pinions or wheels mounted on the shaft of the stirring blade and driven respectively by a chain or a belt, or by a worm located in the shelves.
Dans le cas le plus fréquemment rencontré, des têtes d'entraînement individuels du type à palette sont prévues au dessous des étagères formant autant de postes d'agitation unitaires que nécessaires. Les têtes d'entraînement du type à palette de chaque étagère coopèrent avec des éléments complémentaires montés sur des couvercles agitateurs de pots par l'intermédiaire des doigts saillants d'une fourchette qui servent à l'entraînement d'un arbre traversant le couvercle agitateur lequel supporte une pale agitatrice à l'intérieur du pot. Les postes d'agitation ainsi formés sont positionnés dans l'axe des têtes d'entraînement. Cet arrangement aligné sur des axes coplanaires assure la transmission du mouvement mécanique de proche en proche.In the most frequently encountered case, individual paddle type drive heads are provided below the shelves forming as many unit stirring stations as required. The paddle-type drive heads of each shelf cooperate with complementary elements mounted on pot agitator covers by means of the protruding fingers of a fork which serve to drive a shaft passing through the agitator cover. which supports a stirring blade inside the pot. The stirring stations thus formed are positioned in the axis of the drive heads. This arrangement aligned on coplanar axes ensures the transmission of the mechanical movement step by step.
Dans un autre type d'entraînement, une ligne d'entraînement monobloc est prévue accessible en face frontale des étagères du type chaîne ou courroie formant des zones agitatrices. Les lignes d'entraînement de chaque étagère coopèrent avec des éléments complémentaires montés sur des couvercles agitateurs de pots par l'intermédiaire des dentures d'un pignon ou d'une roue et servant à l'entraînement d'un arbre traversant le couvercle agitateur lequel supporte une pale agitatrice à l'intérieur du pot. Les zones agitatrices ainsi formées sont disposées de façon décalée perpendiculairement à la ligne d'entraînement. Cet arrangement non aligné sur des axes non coplanaires assure également la transmission du mouvement mécanique de proche en proche.In another type of drive, a one-piece drive line is provided accessible on the front side of the shelves of the chain or belt type forming stirring zones. The drive lines of each shelf cooperate with complementary elements mounted on pots agitator lids through the teeth of a pinion or a wheel and used to drive a shaft passing through the agitator cover which supports a stirring blade inside the pot. The stirring zones thus formed are arranged in an offset manner perpendicular to the drive line. This non-aligned arrangement on non-coplanar axes also ensures the transmission of the mechanical movement step by step.
L'utilisateur souhaite disposer de machines d'agitation toujours plus économiques et de plus en plus polyvalentes. Par conséquent, les machines ou armoires d'agitation doivent permettre un montage rapide et sans outil. De ce fait, les solutions techniques doivent évoluer vers la réduction des opérations de montage pour chaque sous-ensemble individuel. Ainsi, les machines doivent intégrer le maximum d'éléments préassemblés pour éviter à l'utilisateur un temps de montage trop long. De plus, les différents modules d'une armoire agitatrice doivent être les plus simples possible pour réduire les coûts de fabrication, notamment en limitant la variété des sous-ensembles ou en réduisant la diversité des modèles existants dans un objectif de standardisation.The user wishes to have more economical and more and more versatile agitating machines. Therefore, stirring machines or cabinets must allow quick assembly without tools. As a result, technical solutions must evolve towards reducing assembly operations for each individual subset. Thus, the machines must integrate the maximum of preassembled elements to avoid the user assembly time too long. In addition, the different modules of a stirring cabinet must be as simple as possible to reduce manufacturing costs, in particular by limiting the variety of subassemblies or reducing the diversity of existing models for the purpose of standardization.
L'armoire agitatrice doit également assurer une modularité avec une structure polyvalente pouvant accueillir des options périphériques telles que des étagères de stockage arrière, des habillages pour un espace chauffé, ou même l'absence des éléments mécaniques d'agitation sur quelques étagères. Une armoire agitatrice moderne doit répondre également à d'autres exigences telles que :
- la limitation du nombre de pièces d'assemblage au strict minimum pour réduire les manipulations.
- la réduction de l'encombrement des sous-ensembles préassemblés pour un emballage compact,
- la simplification de l'architecture tôlerie pour une version de machine économique,
- les organes de transmission doivent être accessibles de manière rapide sans démontage de la structure de la machine pour des interventions de maintenance (par exemple, le changement du moteur ou des courroies), tout en conservant une transmission performante du couple.
- de plus, une fois la machine complètement montée, une tablette mécanique doit pouvoir rester amovible pour, soit un remplacement en cas d'usure, soit une installation ultérieure si elle n'a pas été prévue dès l'origine.
- limiting the number of assembly parts to a minimum to reduce handling.
- reducing the bulk of preassembled subassemblies for compact packaging,
- the simplification of the sheet metal architecture for an economical machine version,
- the transmission members must be accessible quickly without dismantling the machine structure for maintenance operations (for example, changing the motor or belts), while maintaining a high performance torque transmission.
- moreover, once the machine is completely assembled, a mechanical tablet must be able to remain removable for either a replacement in case of wear, or a subsequent installation if it was not planned from the outset.

L'invention doit donc assurer la polyvalence des configurations de stockage et/ou d'agitation d'une ligne de peinture, de façon modulaire et flexible et le plus économiquement possible. Un autre objectif de l'invention est de permettre des manipulations limitées de la ligne d'arbres au montage sans outil et de simplifier la réalisation d'une tablette mécanique pour réduire les coûts de fabrication.The invention must therefore ensure the versatility of storage configurations and / or agitation of a paint line, in a modular and flexible manner and as economically as possible. Another object of the invention is to allow limited manipulations of the shaft line to the assembly without tools and to simplify the production of a mechanical tablet to reduce manufacturing costs.
Ces objectifs sont atteints par une armoire modulaire selon la revendication 1.These objectives are achieved by a modular cabinet according to
Du fait que les éléments de transmission motrice sont concentrés sur une pièce extérieure aux tablettes mécaniques et que les éléments de transmission réceptrice sont concentrés sur la tablette mécanique, on obtient une plus grande flexibilité de configuration dans les variantes de ligne de peintures. La cinématique d'entraînement peut alors évoluer librement en fonction du besoin ou non d'agitation des peintures sans pour autant remettre en cause l'architecture nodale de la machine.Since the power transmission elements are concentrated on a part outside the mechanical shelves and the receiving transmission elements are concentrated on the mechanical tablet, more configuration flexibility is obtained in the paint line variants. The drive kinematics can then evolve freely according to the need or not of agitation of the paintings without putting into question the nodal architecture of the machine.
On obtient également une réduction de l'encombrement des sous-ensembles préassemblés pour un emballage compact, notamment en dissociant les montants modulaires de la structure d'un étage. Les modules d'armoire ne sont plus alors encombrants en raison des éléments constitutifs dissociés. Selon l'invention, seulement trois sous-ensembles préassemblés (dont deux éléments montants identiques et une tablette mécanique) sont prévus par module d'armoire.A reduction in the bulk of the preassembled sub-assemblies for a compact package is also obtained, in particular by dissociating the modular uprights of the structure of a stage. The cabinet modules are no longer bulky because of the dissociated components. According to the invention, only three preassembled sub-assemblies (including two identical upright elements and a mechanical tablet) are provided per cabinet module.
Selon l'invention, toutes les fonctions de liaison entre les éléments montants et la tablette mécanique sont concentrées autour d'un noeud central qui assure la rigidité complète de l'ensemble. De préférence, les éléments montants et le noeud central de liaison sont assemblés par emboîtement et retenu par un assemblage clipsé. Le noeud central peut également être réalisé en plusieurs parties distinctes ou en deux parties symétriques hermaphrodites. De manière avantageuse il est réalisé en plastique et il est le siège de la fixation de nombreux éléments accessoires tels que une table de travail, un boîtier de commande électronique, des habillages, des étagères de stockage arrière, etc.According to the invention, all the connection functions between the upright elements and the mechanical tablet are concentrated around a central node which ensures the complete rigidity of the assembly. Preferably, the upright elements and the central connection node are assembled by interlocking and retained by a clipped assembly. The central node may also be made of several distinct parts or two symmetrical hermaphrodite parts. Advantageously it is made of plastic and it is the seat of the fixing of many accessory elements such as a worktable, an electronic control box, skins, rear storage shelves, etc.
Puisque le noeud central concentre l'ensemble des fonctions de liaison, il peut, de ce fait, intégrer la ligne d'arbres d'entraînement. Toutes les fonctions de liaison sont donc avantageusement regroupées autour d'une architecture nodale.Since the central node concentrates all the link functions, it can, therefore, integrate the line of drive shafts. All the link functions are therefore advantageously grouped around a nodal architecture.
Dans une forme de réalisation préférée, les deux éléments montants et la tablette mécanique de chaque module d'armoire sont montés par encastrement avec une portée suffisante pour assurer la rigidité de l'ensemble. La rigidité du bâti est donc assurée par des encastrements simples qui évitent la mise en place de croisillons arrière classiques gênant le positionnement d'étagère de stockage arrière.In a preferred embodiment, the two upright members and the mechanical shelf of each cabinet module are recessed mounted with a range sufficient to ensure the rigidity of the assembly. The rigidity of the frame is ensured by simple recesses that avoid the establishment of conventional rear braces hindering the positioning of rear storage shelf.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention les éléments de transmission motrice sont constitués d'une ligne d'arbres d'entraînement fractionnés. L'un des deux éléments montants de chaque module comporte une partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné, et la partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné est fixée à l'élément montant de manière telle qu'elle soit libre en rotation et en translation. Ainsi, cette partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné peut également être fixée à l'élément montant de manière amovible. La ligne d'arbres fractionnés est donc indépendante d'une tablette mécanique.According to another aspect of the invention, the power transmission elements consist of a line of fractional drive shafts. One of the two upright members of each module has a portion of the split drive shaft, and the portion of the split drive shaft is attached to the upright member such that it is free to rotate. and in translation. Thus, this portion of the split drive shaft can also be attached to the movable member removably. The line of split trees is therefore independent of a mechanical tablet.
Le fait que la ligne d'arbre d'entraînement soit fractionnée assure l'autonomie d'un montant modulaire avec, à la fois, une mise en place avec le minimum de manipulations, une réduction d'espace pour l'emballage d'une tablette mécanique préassemblée et un désaccouplement rapide pour des opérations de changement des courroies et de maintenance, par exemple. Puisque chaque partie de la ligne d'arbre d'entraînement fractionné est fixée individuellement à l'élément montant de manière telle qu'il soit libre en rotation et en translation, on évite la mise en place de la ligne d'arbres lors du montage de l'armoire. Cela permet donc des opérations de montage « en aveugle ». De plus, puisque la partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné est libre en rotation et en translation, on conserve une flexibilité d'alignement des arbres fractionnés pour assurer l'entraînement quelle que soient les situations des défauts géométriques (dûs au positionnement de la machine, par exemple).The fact that the drive shaft line is split ensures the autonomy of a modular upright with, at the same time, an installation with the minimum of manipulations, a reduction of space for the packaging of a Preassembled mechanical shelf and quick disconnection for belt changing and maintenance operations, for example. Since each part of the split drive shaft line is individually fixed to the upright member so that it is free to rotate and translate, the line of shafts is avoided during assembly. of the cabinet. This allows editing operations "blind". In addition, since the portion of the split drive shaft is free to rotate and translate, there is retained alignment flexibility of the split shafts to ensure the drive whatever the situations of the geometrical defects (due to the positioning of the machine, for example).
Selon un aspect particulier de l'invention l'arbre d'entraînement à une forme à section constante polygonale ou curviligne non circulaire. De préférence, l'arbre d'entraînement à une forme curviligne non circulaire comme un profil de type Torx® peut l'illustrer à titre d'exemple. Il peut être réalisé par extrusion. L'arbre d'entraînement peut aussi posséder une âme creuse et être réalisé en aluminium. La forme spécifique de l'arbre et sa réalisation en aluminium, beaucoup plus léger que des axes en acier, permettent d'améliorer les performances du couple de transmission.According to one particular aspect of the invention, the drive shaft has a shape with a polygonal or curvilinear non-circular section. Preferably, the drive shaft with a non-circular curvilinear shape such as a Torx® type profile can illustrate it by way of example. It can be made by extrusion. The drive shaft may also have a hollow core and be made of aluminum. The specific shape of the shaft and its aluminum construction, much lighter than steel shafts, improve the performance of the transmission torque.
Aux deux extrémités d'un arbre d'entraînement sont fixés, de préférence, des embouts qui reprennent les formes géométriques de l'arbre. Ces embouts assurent la liaison entre les pignons motrices des paliers moteurs de chaque noeud central de liaison. De manière avantageuse, l'emboîtement est réalisé avec un jeu fonctionnel suffisant pour permettre un auto-ajustage angulaire simple et rapide de la ligne d'arbres lors du montage des deux extrémités de l'ensemble intégré montant-arbre fractionné sur la tablette inférieure mise en place, puis de la tablette supérieure sur le montant mis en place. On peut donc assurer une liaison souple pour absorber les défauts d'alignement d'une structure modulaire. L'énergie mécanique nécessaire au démarrage lors de l'accélération angulaire est optimisée par la réduction des moments d'inertie de la ligne d'arbres. De préférence, les embouts sont réalisés dans une matière plastique suffisamment élastique pour encaisser les chocs au démarrage et suffisamment dure pour assurer la transmission du couple. Egalement de manière avantageuse, les embouts des arbres sont ajustés et immobilisés par des goupilles d'axe de type « épingle ». Le nombre de pièces de la ligne d'arbres est donc extrêmement réduit et lui confère une grande accessibilité lors d'un éventuel démontage pour une opération de changement de courroie.At both ends of a drive shaft are preferably fixed tips that take the geometric shapes of the shaft. These tips provide the connection between the drive pinions of the drive bearings of each central node link. Advantageously, the interlocking is performed with a sufficient functional clearance to allow a simple and fast angular self-adjustment of the line of shafts when mounting the two ends of the integrated assembly amount-split shaft on the lower shelf put in place and then the upper shelf on the amount set up. It is therefore possible to provide a flexible connection to absorb the misalignment of a modular structure. The mechanical energy required for starting during angular acceleration is optimized by reducing the moments of inertia of the line of trees. Preferably, the end pieces are made of a plastic material sufficiently elastic to withstand shocks at startup and sufficiently hard to ensure the transmission of torque. Also advantageously, the tips of the shafts are adjusted and immobilized by pins pin type "pin". The number of parts of the line of trees is extremely reduced and gives it great accessibility during a possible disassembly for a belt change operation.
De manière avantageuse, le socle de base comporte un moteur pour l'entraînement des éléments de transmission motrice. De préférence, le moteur est dissociable, sans démontage, ni du socle de base ni de la structure de la machine. La motorisation principale amovible sans contrainte est donc facilement interchangeable pour des interventions de maintenance.Advantageously, the base base comprises a motor for driving the driving transmission elements. Preferably, the engine is separable, without disassembly, neither the base base nor the structure of the machine. The removable main motor without constraint is therefore easily interchangeable for maintenance operations.
De préférence, la tablette mécanique est amovible sans démontage des modules d'agitation. Dans une version de réalisation avantageuse, l'armoire comprend au moins un module d'armoire avec des tablettes support pour le stockage des pots sans éléments de transmission de mouvement.Preferably, the mechanical tablet is removable without disassembly of the stirring modules. In an advantageous embodiment, the cabinet comprises at least one cabinet module with support shelves for storing jars without movement transmission elements.
Selon un autre aspect, l'invention est réalisée par une armoire modulaire pour le stockage et l'entraînement de pots agitateurs contenant des produits liquides, l'armoire modulaire comportant un socle de base sur lequel est monté au moins un module d'armoire, et un système de transmission de mouvement constitué d'éléments de transmission motrice et d'éléments de transmission réceptrice, chaque module d'armoire étant composé de deux éléments montants et d'une tablette mécanique pour le support et l'entraînement des pots agitateurs, cette armoire étant caractérisée en ce que l'ensemble des éléments de transmission motrice et réceptrice sont disposés à l'intérieur de ladite tablette mécanique, et en ce que la tablette mécanique comprends au moins un motoréducteur pour l'entraînement du système de transmission de mouvement.According to another aspect, the invention is achieved by a modular cabinet for storing and driving agitator pots containing liquid products, the modular cabinet comprising a base base on which is mounted at least one cabinet module, and a motion transmission system consisting of driving transmission elements and receiving transmission elements, each cabinet module being composed of two upstanding members and a mechanical shelf for supporting and driving the agitator pots, this cabinet being characterized in that all the driving and receiving transmission elements are disposed inside said mechanical tablet, and in that the mechanical tablet comprises at least one geared motor for driving the motion transmission system .
Selon une autre forme avantageuse, la tablette mécanique comprends des motoréducteurs individuels montés directement sur des postes d'entraînement transmettant le mouvement en rotation des motoréducteurs sur des pales agitatrices à l'intérieur de pots. Ainsi on peut obtenir une construction de l'armoire encore plus compacte.According to another advantageous form, the mechanical tablet comprises individual geared motors mounted directly on driving stations transmitting the rotational movement of the geared motors on agitating blades inside pots. Thus one can obtain an even more compact cabinet construction.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention est réalisé par une armoire modulaire pour le stockage et l'entraînement de pots agitateurs contenant des produits liquides, l'armoire modulaire comportant un socle de base sur lequel est monté au moins un module d'armoire, et un système de transmission de mouvement constitué d'éléments de transmission motrice et d'éléments de transmission réceptrice, chaque module d'armoire étant composé de deux éléments montants et d'une tablette mécanique pour le support et l'entraînement des pots agitateurs, cette armoire étant caractérisée en ce que les éléments de transmission motrice sont constitués d'une ligne d'arbres d'entraînement fractionnés et un des deux éléments montants de chaque module comporte une partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné et en ce que ladite partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné est fixée à l'élément montant de manière telle qu'il soit libre en rotation et en translation. De préférence, dans ce cas, la partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné est fixée à l'élément montant de manière amovible.According to another aspect of the invention is realized by a modular cabinet for storing and driving agitator pots containing liquid products, the modular cabinet comprising a base base on which is mounted at least one cabinet module, and a motion transmission system consisting of driving transmission elements and receiving transmission elements, each cabinet module being composed of two upstanding members and a mechanical shelf for supporting and driving the agitator pots, this cabinet being characterized in that the driving transmission elements consist of a line of split drive shafts and one of the two risers of each module comprises a portion of the split drive shaft and in that said part of the split drive shaft is attached to the upright member so that it is free in rotation and translation. Preferably, in this case, the portion of the split drive shaft is removably attached to the upright member.

Dans ce cas, la tablette mécanique 4 comprends au moins un motoréducteur pour l'entraînement du système de transmission de mouvement. Selon une autre forme de réalisation avantageuse, la tablette mécanique peut comprendre des motoréducteurs individuels montés directement sur des postes d'entraînement transmettant le mouvement en rotation des motoréducteurs sur des pales agitatrices à l'intérieur de pots.However, advantageously, all the driving and receiving transmission elements could also be arranged inside the

Cependant, bien entendu, on pourrait également utiliser avec l'invention un système avec des lignes d'entraînement de type chaîne ou courroie.However, of course, one could also use with the invention a system with chain or belt type drive lines.

De préférence, la tablette mécanique 4 est amovible sans démontage des modules d'agitation. Dans une forme de réalisation avantageuse, l'armoire comprend au moins un module d'armoire avec des tablettes support pour le stockage des pots sans élément de transmission de mouvement.Preferably, the

Ainsi est réalisé un lien central en deux parties pouvant assurer la polyvalence des fonctions souhaitée. Ce lien ou noeud central 7 de liaison est donc le siège des multiples fonctions d'assemblage. Il peut être réalisé en une seule partie solidaire de la tablette mécanique 4 et intègre par effet de symétrie gauche/droite les fonctions de la transmission de mouvement ou de ses guidages. Le noeud central 7 de liaison peut être préassemblé à la tablette mécanique. Lors de l'opération de montage de l'armoire, il suffit donc d'encastrer les parties libres du noeud central 7 dans les éléments montants 3.Thus is realized a central link in two parts that can ensure the versatility of the desired functions.

Selon une forme de réalisation de l'invention les éléments de transmission motrice sont constitués d'une ligne d'arbres d'entraînement fractionnés. La
Aux deux extrémités d'un arbre d'entraînement 14 sont fixés des éléments de liaison avec les pignons 9 d'entraînement ou des embouts 15 qui reprennent à l'intérieur les formes géométriques extérieures de l'arbre et du pignon 9 d'entraînement. Ces embouts assurent la liaison entre les pignons moteurs des paliers moteurs de chaque noeud. L'emboîtement des embouts 15 sur l'arbre d'entraînement 14 et le pignon 9 d'entraînement est réalisé avec un jeu fonctionnel suffisant pour permettre un auto-ajustage angulaire simple et rapide de la ligne d'arbres lors du montage des deux extrémités de l'ensemble intégré montant-arbre fractionné sur la tablette inférieure mise en place, puis de la tablette supérieure sur le montant mis en place. On peut donc assurer une liaison souple pour absorber les défauts d'alignement d'une structure modulaire. L'énergie mécanique nécessaire au démarrage lors de l'accélération angulaire est optimisée par la réduction des moments d'inertie de la ligne d'arbres. Par ailleurs, les embouts sont, de préférence, réalisés dans une matière plastique suffisamment élastique pour encaisser les chocs au démarrage et suffisamment dure pour assurer la transmission du couple.At both ends of a
Les embouts des arbres sont ajustés et immobilisés par des goupilles d'axe 16 de type « épingle ». Le nombre de pièces de la ligne d'arbres est donc extrêmement réduit et lui confère une grande accessibilité lors d'un éventuel démontage pour une opération de changement de courroie.The tips of the shafts are adjusted and immobilized by pin pins pin 16 type. The number of parts of the line of trees is extremely reduced and gives it great accessibility during a possible disassembly for a belt change operation.
L'un des deux éléments montants 3 de chaque module porte une partie de l'arbre d'entraînement fractionné. La
