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.

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.

  • 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.
