Description

DOMAINE DE L'INVENTIONFIELD OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention a pour objet un support à filières conçu pour être installé sur une pièce de mobilier telle qu'une table, une étagère ou un bureau, ou toute autre surface plane.The present invention relates to a die support designed to be installed on a piece of furniture such as a table, a shelf or a desk, or any other flat surface.

ARRIÈRE-PLAN TECHNOLOGIQUETECHNOLOGICAL BACKGROUND

Dans le domaine du mobilier bas de gamme, lorsque vient le temps d'offrir de l'espace de rangement supplémentaire pour des filières à dossiers sans changer l'espace fourni pour la surface, la réalisation de caissons et/ou compartiments est nécessaire. Cela invoque l'ajout de pièces et de quincaillerie supplémentaire, rendant complexe et plus longue l'assemblage du mobilier. De plus, à l'emballage, le poids s'en retrouve plus élevé. De même, pour avoir l'accès à une imprimante à chargement arrière pour le papier, les manufacturiers doivent placer celle-ci sur une tablette coulissante au lieu d'une tablette fixe. Cette problématique affaiblie la structure du meuble et nécessite de la quincaillerie dispendieuse.In the field of low-end furniture, when it comes time to offer additional storage space for files dies without changing the space provided for the surface, the realization of boxes and / or compartments is necessary. This involves the addition of additional hardware and hardware, making the assembly of the furniture complex and time-consuming. In addition, the packaging, the weight is found higher. Similarly, to gain access to a back-loading printer for paper, manufacturers must place it on a sliding shelf instead of a fixed shelf. This problem weakens the structure of the furniture and requires expensive hardware.

RÉSUMÉ DE L'INVENTIONSUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention a pour objet un support à filières qui vient régler le problème ci-dessus évoqué.The present invention relates to a support dies that comes to solve the problem mentioned above.

Plus précisément, l'invention a pour objet un support à filières qui est conçu pour être installé de façon extrêmement simple sur une pièce de mobilier telle qu'une table, un bureau ou une étagère, ou sur toute autre surface plane, en vue de pouvoir ranger de façon extrêmement simple et rapide des filières ou autres types de supports à dossiers de type conventionnel.More specifically, the subject of the invention is a die support which is designed to be installed extremely simply on a piece of furniture such as a table, desk or shelf, or on any other flat surface, with a view to extremely simple and fast storage of dies or other types of conventional type of file holders.

Le support à filières selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend :

  • un cadre destiné à être inséré dans une ouverture faite dans une surface plane, le cadre présentant une partie supérieure pourvue d'une bordure afin de reposer sur le bord du panneau dans l'ouverture de laquelle ledit cadre est inséré, le cadre présentant également une partie inférieure pourvu d'un repli interne en forme de J afin de permettre de suspendre une ou des filières; et
  • un couvercle monté sur charnières à même le cadre pour venir se fermer sur celui-ci et protéger son contenu.
The die support according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises:
  • a frame for insertion into an opening made in a flat surface, the frame having an upper portion provided with a border for resting on the edge of the panel in the opening of which said frame is inserted, the frame also having a lower part provided with a J-shaped internal fold so as to suspend one or more dies; and
  • a lid hinged to the frame to close on it and protect its contents.

De préférence, le cadre est dimensionné de façon à pouvoir, dans un sens, supporter des filières à dossiers de format « A » ou « Lettres » et dans l'autre des filières à dossiers de format « Légal ».Preferably, the frame is dimensioned in such a way as to be able, in one sense, to support "A" or "Letter" format file dies and in the other "Legal" format file dies.

DESCRIPTION DÉTAILLÉE DE L'INVENTIONDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Le support à filières 1 selon l'invention comprend un cadre 3 destiné à être inséré dans une ouverture débitée préalablement dans la surface plane d'un panneau d'une épaisseur pouvant être variable, qui fait partie d'une pièce de mobilier telle qu'une table, une étagère ou un bureau, ou de tout autre élément.The die support 1 according to the invention comprises a frame 3 intended to be inserted into an opening previously dispensed into the flat surface of a panel of a thickness that may be variable, which is part of a piece of furniture such that a table, shelf or desk, or any other element.

Le cadre 3 est pourvu d'une bordure externe 5 dans sa partie supérieure dont le but est de masquer les traces ou imperfections du débitage du panneau dans lequel il est inséré.The frame 3 is provided with an outer rim 5 in its upper part whose purpose is to hide the traces or imperfections of the cutting of the panel in which it is inserted.

Le cadre 3 est pourvu également d'un repli interne 7 en forme de « J » dans la partie inférieure sur laquelle peuvent être apposés les crochets aux extrémités de filières à dossiers de format « A » ou « Lettres » 9 dans un sens (voir Figures 1, 2 et 4) et « Légal » 11 dans l'autre.The frame 3 is also provided with an internal fold 7 in the form of a "J" in the lower part on which can be affixed the hooks at the ends of dies with "A" or "Lettres" format folders 9 in one direction (see Figures 1, 2 and 4) and "Legal" 11 in the other.

Le dégagement existant entre la partie inférieure et la partie supérieure du cadre permet l'utilisation d'étiquettes d'identification sur les filières sans que celles-ci ne dépassent du cadre (voir Figure 5).The clearance between the lower part and the upper part of the frame allows the use of identification labels on the dies without these beyond the frame (see Figure 5).

Le cadre 3 est recouvert d'un couvercle 13 monté sur charnières dont le but de protéger le contenu et éviter que des objets tombent inutilement à travers celui-ci.The frame 3 is covered with a lid 13 mounted on hinges whose purpose to protect the contents and prevent objects from falling unnecessarily through it.

Le support 1 ci-dessus décrit est léger et la partie débitée du panneau du meuble dans lequel il est installé peut être réutilisé à d'autres fins. Ce débitage, s'il est effectué avant l'emballage du meuble à la demande de l'acheteur, peut faciliter la manutention et les coûts d'expédition en raison du poids moindre.The support 1 described above is lightweight and the portion of the furniture panel in which it is installed can be reused for other purposes. This debitage, if performed prior to packing the furniture at the request of the buyer, may facilitate handling and shipping costs due to the lower weight.

Le support 1 selon l'invention est avantageusement réalisé dans un moule en deux parties, sans l'utilisation de composantes mécaniques dispendieuses, ce qui permet de meilleurs débits de production.The support 1 according to the invention is advantageously made in a mold in two parts, without the use of expensive mechanical components, which allows better production rates.
