Description

La présente invention concerne un ensemble de rangement pour véhicules utilitaires, composé d'un nombre évolutif de racks et de mallettes.The present invention relates to a storage set for commercial vehicles, consisting of an evolving number of racks and cases.

L'idée de la présente invention est venue du fait de la difficulté de ranger des mallettes dans un véhicule. Lorsqu'un véhicule est en mouvement lors d'accélération, de freinage ou bien dans les virages, les mallettes peuvent se déplacer dans n'importe quelle direction. De plus, il est difficile de prendre la dernière mallette sans déplacer les autres lorsque plusieurs mallettes sont disposées les unes sur les autres. D'une part, cet ensemble de rangement doit pouvoir s'enlever du plancher, libérant ainsi de la surface et du volume dans le véhicule. D'autre part, il est difficile de trouver les pièces que l'on veut sans avoir à ouvrir plusieurs mallettes.The idea of the present invention has come because of the difficulty of storing briefcases in a vehicle. When a vehicle is moving during acceleration, braking or cornering, cases can move in any direction. In addition, it is difficult to take the last case without moving the others when several cases are arranged on top of each other. On the one hand, this storage unit must be able to be removed from the floor, thus freeing the surface and the volume in the vehicle. On the other hand, it is difficult to find the parts you want without having to open several cases.

Un certain nombre de réalisations existent pour offrir les possibilités de rangement dans les ensembles pourvus de casiers, de tiroirs ou de mallettes.A number of achievements exist to provide storage possibilities in sets with lockers, drawers or briefcases.

Brevet FR 2 223 948 : Ensemble d'éléments de meuble à assembler. Ce brevet décrit un ensemble d'éléments de meuble comportant des bacs ouverts sur un côté, superposables et juxtaposables, destinés à recevoir des tiroirs dont la sortie est volontairement limitée par une butée.Patent FR 2 223 948: Set of furniture elements to assemble. This patent describes a set of furniture elements comprising bins open on one side, stackable and juxtaposable, for receiving drawers whose output is deliberately limited by a stop.

La présente invention décrit un ensemble de rangement pour véhicules utilitaires, composé de trois parties principales, un ensemble de racks, des mallettes, un socle et des équerres de fixation.The present invention discloses a utility vehicle storage package consisting of three main parts, a set of racks, carrying cases, a base and brackets.

Les racks sont des éléments superposables et solidarisables entre eux au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons, entre autres. Ces racks sont en forme de cuvette rectangulaire avec un côté d'une faible hauteur que l'on appellera rebord avant. Les autres côtés verticaux ont des lèvres horizontales débordantes, identiques, percées chacune d'une façon similaire d'orifices nécessaires au passage des éléments de fixation pour assembler les racks entre eux. Ces ensembles de racks sont terminés en parties basse et haute par deux pièces, de forme identique, intitulées support de racks et couvercle. Ce support de racks et ce couvercle, de forme identique, sont solidarisables aux racks au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons, entre autres. Ce support de racks est en forme de cuvette rectangulaire dont l'arrière et les deux côtés latéraux ont une lèvre horizontale débordante. Le couvercle comporte, également, une lèvre horizontale débordante. La lèvre horizontale débordante est percée d'orifices nécessaires au passage des éléments de fixation pour assembler le support de racks et le couvercle aux racks. Ce support de racks et ce couvercle sont également constitués de bossages permettant de recevoir le ressort de compression et d'évidements favorisant le dégagement du ressort de compression solidaire du fond de rack.The racks are stackable elements and can be secured together by means of fasteners such as bolts, among others. These racks are in the shape of a rectangular bowl with a low side that will be called the front edge. The other vertical sides have horizontal lips projecting, identical, each pierced in a similar way orifices necessary for the passage of the fasteners to assemble the racks between them. These sets of racks are completed in low and high parts by two pieces, of identical shape, entitled support racks and lid. This rack rack and this cover, identical in shape, are securable to the racks by means of fasteners such as bolts, among others. This rack support is in the form of a rectangular bowl whose rear and two lateral sides have an overflowing horizontal lip. The lid also has an overflowing horizontal lip. The overflowing horizontal lip is pierced with orifices necessary for the passage of the fasteners to assemble the rack support and the lid to the racks. This rack support and this cover also consist of bosses for receiving the compression spring and recesses promoting the release of the compression spring secured to the bottom rack.

Cet ensemble de racks peut être solidarisé sur un plancher de véhicule ou autre au moyen d'une plaque de fond rectangulaire, solidaire du support de racks au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des goujons, entre autres.This set of racks can be secured to a vehicle floor or the like by means of a rectangular bottom plate, secured to the rack support by means of fasteners such as studs, among others.

Cette plaque de fond rectangulaire vient se loger dans la glissière sur trois côtés. Cette disposition permet d'enlever l'ensemble de racks du plancher du véhicule libérant ainsi de la surface et du volume utiles si nécessaire.This rectangular bottom plate is housed in the slide on three sides. This arrangement makes it possible to remove the set of racks from the floor of the vehicle thus releasing the useful surface and volume if necessary.

Cet ensemble de racks disposé dans la glissière peut également être fixé sur les parois verticales d'un véhicule au moyen d'équerres de fixation réglables en longueur permettant de compenser les variations de côté entre l'ensemble de racks et le galbe des parois du véhicule.This set of racks disposed in the slideway can also be fixed to the vertical walls of a vehicle by means of adjustable fastening brackets in length to compensate for side variations between the set of racks and the curve of the walls of the vehicle .

Dans cet ensemble de racks constitué du nombre de racks que l'on désire, des mallettes de rangement à quincaillerie ou autre viennent se glisser horizontalement dans chaque compartiment matérialisé par chaque rack. Ces mallettes sont maintenues en place par le rebord avant de faible hauteur et un ressort de compression situé sur la face arrière interne du rack ; celui-ci assurant en permanence un maintien en contact de la mallette avec le rebord avant du rack. D'autre part, ces mallettes sont également maintenues plaquées sur le fond des racks par un ressort de compression situé sous le fond du rack supérieur. Pour extraire la mallette de son compartiment, l'utilisateur prend celle-ci par sa poignée et la lève légèrement obliquement ; opération qui comprime alors le ressort de compression situé sur le fond du rack supérieur. La mallette peut alors être extraite. Les évidements du support de racks permettent de recevoir le ressort de compression lorsque son rack supérieur est assemblé dessus, tandis que les bossages du couvercle reçoivent un ressort de compression lorsque son rack inférieur est assemblé dessous.In this set of racks consisting of the number of racks that are desired, storage cases hardware or other are slid horizontally in each compartment materialized by each rack. These cases are held in place by the low-height front edge and a compression spring located on the internal rear face of the rack; this ensures permanently maintaining contact of the case with the front edge of the rack. On the other hand, these cases are also held pressed against the bottom of the racks by a compression spring located under the bottom of the upper rack. To extract the case from its compartment, the user takes it by its handle and raises it slightly obliquely; operation which then compresses the compression spring located on the bottom of the upper rack. The case can then be extracted. The rack support recesses receive the compression spring when its top rack is assembled to it, while the lid bosses receive a compression spring when its bottom rack is assembled below.

Chaque mallette est équipée d'une étiquette en façade pouvant préciser la nature des objets rangés dans celle-ci. Une notice en fond de mallette organise le rangement dans chaque compartiment en précisant la nature de la pièce et la quantité approximative que l'on peut y loger.Each case is equipped with a label on the front that can specify the nature of objects stored in it. A note at the bottom of the briefcase organizes the storage in each compartment by specifying the nature of the room and the approximate amount that can be accommodated.

Cette disposition, ensemble de racks et mallettes, permet de sortir n'importe quelle mallette sans déranger les autres.This arrangement, a set of racks and cases, allows you to take out any briefcase without disturbing others.

Les deux autres côtés latéraux du rack (1) et sa face arrière interne (9) formant un U, comportent, dans leur partie supérieure, une lèvre horizontale débordante (3) et, dans leur partie inférieure, une lèvre horizontale débordante (2). La face arrière interne (9) de l'un des racks (1) comporte un ressort de compression (12). Le fond (5) des racks (1) sert d'appui à la mallette (7) et comporte, dans sa face externe, un ressort de compression (13). La face externe du fond (5) des racks (1) est constituée de nervures (8) en forme de quadrillage. Les nervures (8) servent de raidisseurs aux racks (1). Les nervures (8) sont refermées, sur trois côtés, en leur périphérie par une lèvre horizontale débordante (2). La lèvre horizontale débordante (3) et la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) identiques, sont percées, chacune d'une façon similaire, d'orifices (26). Ces orifices (26) permettent le passage d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (10) entre autres.According to Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, the device consists of racks (1) stackable rectangular cup-shaped open on its upper part and on its front face. The front of the rack (1) is closed at a low height by a front edge (11). The other two lateral sides of the rack (1) and its internal rear face (9) forming a U, comprise, in their upper part, an overlying horizontal lip (3) and, in their lower part, an overlying horizontal lip (2). . The inner rear face (9) of one of the racks (1) comprises a compression spring (12). The bottom (5) of the racks (1) serves to support the case (7) and has, in its outer face, a compression spring (13). The outer face of the bottom (5) of the racks (1) consists of ribs (8) in the form of grid. The ribs (8) serve as stiffeners to the racks (1). The ribs (8) are closed on three sides, at their periphery by an overlying horizontal lip (2). The projecting horizontal lip (3) and the flush horizontal lip (2) are pierced, each in a similar manner, with orifices (26). These holes (26) allow the passage of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others.

Suivant les figures 1, 2 et 3, l'assemblage des racks (1) entre eux, est obtenu par la mise en position de la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) du rack (1) supérieur avec la lèvre horizontale débordante (3) du rack (1) inférieur. Cette mise en position est aidée par le centrage des ergots cylindriques (27) situés sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) du rack (1). Les ergots cylindriques (27) sont centrés avec l'axe des trous (28) qui sont positionnés sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (3). Les racks (1) sont immobilisables entre eux au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que les boulons (10) entre autres.According to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, the assembly of the racks (1) with one another is obtained by placing the overlying horizontal lip (2) of the upper rack (1) in position with the overlying horizontal lip (3) of the rack (1) lower. This positioning is aided by the centering of the cylindrical lugs (27) located on the overflowing horizontal lip (2) of the rack (1). The cylindrical lugs (27) are centered with the axis of the holes (28) which are positioned on the overflowing horizontal lip (3). The racks (1) are immobilizable between them by means of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others.

Selon les figures 1, 3, 4, 5 et 8, l'ensemble comporte plusieurs racks (1) qui sont terminés en partie basse par un support de racks (4) et en partie haute par un couvercle (20), de forme identique. Ce support de racks (4) est en forme de cuvette rectangulaire (30) ouverte sur sa partie supérieure dont l'arrière et les deux côtés latéraux comportent une lèvre horizontale débordante (29) en forme de U. Le couvercle (20) comporte également une lèvre horizontale débordante (29) en forme de U. La lèvre horizontale débordante (29) est percée d'orifices (26). Ces orifices (26) permettent le passage d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (10) entre autres. L'intérieur de la cuvette rectangulaire (30) est constitué de nervures (32). Les bossages (21) sont destinés à la fixation du ressort de compression (13) sous le couvercle (20). Les évidements (22) du support de racks (4) sont destinés à assurer le passage du ressort de compression (13) prévu sous le fond (5) du rack (1). L'assemblage du support de racks (4) par rapport au rack (1) est obtenu par la mise en position de la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) du rack (1) avec la lèvre horizontale débordante (29) du support de racks (4). Cette mise en position est aidée par le centrage des ergots cylindriques (27) situés sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) du rack (1). Les ergots cylindriques (27) sont centrés avec l'axe des trous (28) qui sont positionnés sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (29). Le support de racks (4) et le rack (1) supérieur sont immobilisables entre eux au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (10) entre autres.According to Figures 1, 3, 4, 5 and 8, the assembly comprises several racks (1) which are terminated at the bottom by a rack support (4) and at the top by a cover (20) of identical shape . This rack support (4) is in the form of a rectangular bowl (30) open on its upper part whose rear and the two lateral sides comprise a U-shaped horizontal lip (29). The lid (20) also comprises a U-shaped horizontal lip (29). The overlying horizontal lip (29) has holes (26). These holes (26) allow the passage of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others. The interior of the rectangular bowl (30) consists of ribs (32). The bosses (21) are intended for fixing the compression spring (13) under the cover (20). The recesses (22) of the rack support (4) are intended to ensure the passage of the compression spring (13) provided under the bottom (5) of the rack (1). The assembly of the rack support (4) with respect to the rack (1) is obtained by placing the overlying horizontal lip (2) of the rack (1) in position with the overlying horizontal lip (29) of the rack support ( 4). This positioning is aided by the centering of the cylindrical lugs (27) located on the overflowing horizontal lip (2) of the rack (1). The cylindrical lugs (27) are centered with the axis of the holes (28) which are positioned on the overlying horizontal lip (29). The rack support (4) and the upper rack (1) are immobilizable to each other by means of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others.

L'assemblage du couvercle (20) par rapport au rack (1) est obtenu par la mise en position de la lèvre horizontale débordante (29) du couvercle (20) avec la lèvre horizontale débordante (3) du rack (1) situé en haut de l'ensemble. Le couvercle (20) et ledit rack (1) sont immobilisables entre eux au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (10) entre autres.The assembly of the cover (20) with respect to the rack (1) is obtained by placing the overlying horizontal lip (29) of the cover (20) in position with the overlying horizontal lip (3) of the rack (1) located in top of the set. The cover (20) and said rack (1) are immobilizable to each other by means of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others.

Selon la figure 8, le dispositif comporte une plaque de fond rectangulaire (23) qui est fixée sur la face inférieure du support de racks (4) au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que les goujons (25) entre autres. La pla-que de fond rectangulaire (23) dépasse légèrement du contour inférieur du support de racks (4) ; ce dépassement formant ainsi une lèvre horizontale débordante.According to FIG. 8, the device comprises a rectangular bottom plate (23) which is fixed on the underside of the rack support (4) at means of fasteners such as studs (25) among others. The rectangular bottom plate (23) protrudes slightly from the lower contour of the rack support (4); this overshoot thus forming an overflowing horizontal lip.

Selon les figures 1, 8 et 10, plusieurs racks (1), un support de racks (4), un couvercle (20) et une plaque de fond rectangulaire (23) forment un ensemble (31). Cet ensemble (31) peut être solidarisé sur un plancher de véhicule au moyen de la plaque de fond rectangulaire (23). Cette dernière vient se loger dans les trois côtés de la glissière (6) en forme de U. La glissière (6) est solidaire du plancher au moyen d'éléments de fixation telles que des vis (34) entre autres. Cette disposition permet l'enlever l'ensemble (31) du plancher du véhicule libérant ainsi de la surface et du volume utiles si nécessaire.According to Figures 1, 8 and 10, several racks (1), a rack carrier (4), a cover (20) and a rectangular bottom plate (23) form an assembly (31). This assembly (31) can be secured to a vehicle floor by means of the rectangular bottom plate (23). The latter is housed in the three sides of the slide (6) U-shaped. The slide (6) is secured to the floor by means of fasteners such as screws (34) among others. This arrangement allows to remove the assembly (31) of the floor of the vehicle thus releasing the useful surface and volume if necessary.

Selon la figure 10, afin d'éviter que l'ensemble (31) ne bouge lorsqu'il est placé dans un véhicule en mouvement, l'ensemble (31) doit être immobilisé dans un plan horizontal et vertical. Cette immobilisation est réalisée par l'intermédiaire d'une glissière (6) et par des équerres de fixation (24). L'ensemble (31) coulisse par l'intermédiaire de la plaque de fond rectangulaire (23), entre la glissière (6) et le sol. L'ensemble (31) est ainsi bloqué dans le sens latéral des plans horizontal et vertical.According to Figure 10, to prevent the assembly (31) moves when placed in a moving vehicle, the assembly (31) must be immobilized in a horizontal and vertical plane. This immobilization is performed by means of a slide (6) and by fixing brackets (24). The assembly (31) slides through the rectangular bottom plate (23) between the slide (6) and the ground. The assembly (31) is thus blocked in the lateral direction of the horizontal and vertical planes.

Suivant les figures 11 et 12, les équerres de fixation (24) permettent de bloquer l'ensemble (31) sur les parois du véhicule. Les équerres de fixation (24) sont réglables longitudinalement grâce à leurs trous oblongs. Les équerres de fixation (24) sont positionnées indifféremment soit sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (29) du couvercle (20) soit sur la lèvre horizontale débordante (2) du rack (1). Les équerres de fixation (24) permettent par leurs réglages, de compenser les variations de cotes entre l'ensemble (31) et le galbe des parois du véhicule. Après avoir réglé les équerres de fixation (24), ces dernières sont immobilisables par rapport au couvercle (20) ou au rack (1) au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (10) entre autres. Les équerres de fixation (24) peuvent se reprendre directement, soit sur la carrosserie, soit sur un rail au moyen d'éléments de fixation tels que des boulons (33) entre autres.According to FIGS. 11 and 12, the fastening brackets (24) make it possible to block the assembly (31) on the walls of the vehicle. The fixing brackets (24) are longitudinally adjustable thanks to their oblong holes. The fixing brackets (24) are positioned indifferently either on the overlying horizontal lip (29) of the cover (20) or on the overlying horizontal lip (2) of the rack (1). The fixing brackets (24) allow by their adjustments to compensate for dimensional variations between the assembly (31) and the curve of the walls of the vehicle. After adjusting the brackets (24), the latter are immobilizable relative to the cover (20) or the rack (1) by means of fasteners such as bolts (10) among others. The fixing brackets (24) can be taken directly back either on the body, or on a rail by means of fasteners such as bolts (33) among others.

Selon les figures 1 et 8, l'ensemble (31) est constitué du nombre évolutif de racks (1) suivant le besoin. Des mallettes (7) viennent se loger horizontalement dans chaque rack (1). Le blocage d'une mallette (7) dans son rack (1) est assuré suivant deux directions : une horizontale et une verticale.According to FIGS. 1 and 8, the assembly (31) consists of the changing number of racks (1) as required. Cases (7) are housed horizontally in each rack (1). The locking of a case (7) in its rack (1) is provided in two directions: a horizontal and a vertical.

Selon les figures 6, 7 et 8, chaque mallette (7) est constituée d'un fond (14), d'un couvercle (15), de casiers amovibles (35) (36) ou bien de cloisons amovibles (37). Chaque mallette (7) comporte sur sa face avant, des prolongements (18) et est équipée d'une étiquette (19) en façade pouvant préciser la nature des objets rangés dans celle-ci. De plus, une notice (16) est située entre le fond (14) et soit les casiers amovibles (35) (36), soit les cloisons amovibles (37), entre autres. Cette notice (16) organise le rangement de chaque compartiment en précisant la nature de la pièce et la quantité approximative que l'on peut y loger.According to Figures 6, 7 and 8, each case (7) consists of a bottom (14), a lid (15), removable lockers (35) (36) or removable partitions (37). Each case (7) has on its front face, extensions (18) and is equipped with a label (19) on the front that can specify the nature of objects stored therein. In addition, a notice (16) is located between the bottom (14) and either the removable racks (35) (36), or the removable partitions (37), among others. This notice (16) organizes the storage of each compartment by specifying the nature of the room and the approximate amount that can be accommodated.

Le ressort de compression (12) solidaire de la face arrière interne (9) du rack (1) assure le blocage horizontal par son action sur la mallette (7) en la poussant jusqu'au rebord avant (11) du fond du rack (1) amenant ainsi les prolongements (18) de la mallette en contact avec ledit rebord avant (11).The compression spring (12) integral with the inner rear face (9) of the rack (1) ensures horizontal locking by its action on the case (7) by pushing it to the front edge (11) of the bottom of the rack ( 1) thus bringing the extensions (18) of the case into contact with said front flange (11).

Le blocage vertical est assuré par un ressort de compression (13) qui supprime un trop grand battement entre la mallette (7) et le fond (5) du rack (1) situé au dessus.The vertical blocking is provided by a compression spring (13) which removes too much flap between the case (7) and the bottom (5) of the rack (1) located above.

Un jeu entre ces éléments [rack (1), fond (5) et la mallette (7)], est nécessaire au débattement de la mallette (7) pour l'extraire d'un rack (1).A clearance between these elements [rack (1), bottom (5) and the case (7)], is necessary for the movement of the case (7) to extract it from a rack (1).

Suivant la figure 9, l'extraction de la mallette (7) de son rack est réalisée par l'utilisateur lorsque ce dernier prend la poignée (17) de la mallette (7) et soulève légèrement la mallette (7) jusqu'à ce que cette dernière soit au dessus du rebord avant (11) du rack (1). Cette action comprime le ressort de compression (13). L'utilisateur peut alors tirer vers lui la mallette (7). La mallette (7) coulisse sur son fond (14) sur le rebord avant (11) qui termine le fond (5) du rack (1). Cette action est aidée au départ par la poussée du ressort de compression (12). La mallette (7) est donc extraite de son rack (1).According to Figure 9, the extraction of the case (7) from its rack is performed by the user when the latter takes the handle (17) of the case (7) and slightly lifts the case (7) until that the latter is above the front edge (11) of the rack (1). This action compresses the compression spring (13). The user can then pull the case (7) towards him. The case (7) slides on its bottom (14) on the front edge (11) which terminates the bottom (5) of the rack (1). This action is helped initially by the push compression spring (12). The case (7) is extracted from its rack (1).
