Definitions

  • the invention relates to devices for carrying out the tensioning and the maintenance of a canvas or a sheet of paper.
  • Such devices can for example be used as a public display support or even art or decorative frames.
  • It relates more particularly to a frame or frame structure combined with an arrangement of elements in housings for reversibly securing by jamming a fabric on a frame.
  • the document FR 2,639,879 thus describes a canvas frame having a groove on its periphery.
  • the tensioning device consists, in turn, of an elongate rod comprising a planar base emerging from the groove, and two parallel wings projecting from said flat base and having on their opposite faces beads intended to snap into a narrowed mouthpiece. of the groove made in the frame.
  • the tensioning device has substantially perpendicular portions that are subjected at their junction to shear stresses and this, upon introduction of the two wings projecting inside the mouth of the groove. If this deformation is necessary to achieve the wedging of the fabric in the groove of the frame, it nevertheless weakens the rod and leads to its destruction after a number of uses.
  • the jamming of the fabric is made at the ends of the walls forming the narrowed mouth of the groove, by means of two sharp edges facing one another. This arrangement then generates friction on sharp edges, which consequently damages the fabric at each setting operation or extraction of the rod inside the groove.
  • the document BE 848 203 also discloses a device for tensioning and holding a canvas on a frame.
  • a rod penetrates inside a U-shaped groove.
  • the rod may in particular have a V-shaped cross-section and jam the fabric by virtue of its two long ends of the V's wings. jamming of the cloth is made between a flat surface of the groove and a sharp edge of the rod.
  • this type of arrangement deteriorates the canvas quickly and does not allow to repeat the operations of setting up and dismantling the canvas on the frame, without it being damaged.
  • the invention therefore relates to a device adapted to perform the tensioning and the maintenance of a fabric, comprising a frame having a groove, and at least one deformable rod.
  • the canvas is stretched and held on the frame by wedging between the groove and the deformable rod.
  • This deformable rod has a substantially V-shaped section, oriented towards the bottom of the groove.
  • the deformable strip has a sharp edge intended to serve as a pivot to allow its deformation, and two flanks adapted to achieve the jamming of the fabric in the groove.
  • the device is characterized in that the rod is locked in a narrowing of the groove by means of two beads each extending on a side of the rod in the same direction as the rod.
  • the rod is a profile having two flanks each having a bead on their outer face.
  • the wand has a spacing between the beads at its flanks which is wider than the narrowing of the groove of the frame.
  • a pressure exerted on the inner side of the rod, at the edge of the V then allows to bring the sides of the V, allowing the rod, under the effect of the thrust, to descend into the groove of the frame.
  • the beads then penetrate the narrowing and perform a self-locking assembly of the fabric.
  • the jamming of the fabric is then formed between two tangential surfaces inside the groove and near the narrowing. Therefore, the canvas can be mounted and dismounted on the frame without it being damaged.
  • the strip may also include two flaps that extend the flanks and emerge from the groove to allow gripping and extraction of the blocking rod inside the groove.
  • the jamming rod may extend over the entire side, or be formed by a plurality of independent sections.
  • the fabric in a given direction and on the same side of the frame, the fabric can be wedged in a groove by means of several distinct elements forming sections of independent rods.
  • the frame can be dismountable into a plurality of segments. In this way, its transport and handling are simplified.
  • the frame may comprise a plurality of arrangements for reporting reinforcing bars to couple in pairs segments located, in particular, on opposite sides of the frame.
  • These arrangements may be in the form of grooves adapted to accommodate reversible fastening means.
  • the frame may comprise hooking means for the return on a wall.
  • the frame may include a particular geometry to facilitate its implementation on a wall or more generally any type of partition.
  • the assembly of the rods can be facilitated by means of a tool having a rounded edge for exerting pressure at the inner face of the rods.
  • An assembly comprising a frame and chopsticks and such a tool can be provided with the fabric and sold in this way, so unassembled, to reduce labor costs, storage and handling.
  • the power of the fabric does not require any adjustment on the part of the user and is determined by the actual design of the fabric depending on the material used and its dimensions.
  • the invention relates to a device adapted to perform the power and maintenance of a fabric having a frame having a groove, and at least one deformable rod.
  • the device comprises a frame (2) on which is reported a web (1).
  • the tensioning and holding of the fabric (1) is then effected by the jamming of the fabric (1) by means of rods (4) inside a groove (3).
  • the rods (4) are introduced on the rear face of the frame (2), but they can also be on all other sides of the frame
  • the figure 1 illustrates two distinct embodiments.
  • a deformable rod (4) extends over the entire length of the groove while on another side the deformable rod (4) has a plurality of independent sections (14,24). .
  • the embodiments may be optionally combined or not.
  • Reinforcement bars (12) make it possible to stiffen the frame structure (2). These bars (12) can be secured to the different sections forming the frame (2) through a plurality of arrangements (11), here represented in the form of grooves in which a square nut can be inserted. A screw then makes it possible to reversibly connect the bars (12) to the frame (2).
  • the deformable rods (4) have a substantially V-shaped section oriented towards the bottom of the groove (3).
  • the deformable rods (4) each comprise a sharp edge (9) intended to serve as a pivot to allow their deformation, and two flanks (7, 17) adapted to achieve the jamming of the fabric (1) in the groove (3).
  • the wedging of the fabric (1) inside the groove (3) is achieved by means of the two sides (7,17) of the rod (4) or (14,24).
  • a hooking portion (13) may emerge from the profile in a localized or continuous manner along the entire length of the profile to facilitate the attachment of the frame on a wall.
  • the wedging is obtained by means of two beads (6,16) formed on the flanks (7,17) of the rod (4) and by a narrowing (5) inside the groove (3).
  • Flaps (8) extend the two flanks (7, 17) of the rod (4) outside the groove, thereby extracting the rod (4) locked inside the groove (3).
  • the groove for securing the reinforcing bars (12) has a narrowed opening for the passage of a screw (18) but preventing a nut square (19) out of this groove.
  • the different sections of the frame (2) are thus made in a profile which may have one or more grooves.
