Definitions
- the present invention relates to a single-piece scaffolding floor, that is to say that no separate end piece or additional hook is added by the user to allow the establishment and attachment of such a monoblock floor on scaffolding or similar structures.
- scaffolding is usually carried out so that workers can work at height safely.
- a very common type of scaffold is formed by an assembly of metal tubes, vertical and horizontal, forming a lattice structure.
- Floors on which workers work and circulate rest on the horizontal tubes.
- the scaffolding floor described in the patent British GB 1.417.841 published December 17, 1975, in the name of E. PARRY comprises a plywood panel bordered longitudinally for this purpose by two metal profiles.
- Hooks for securing the floor to the scaffold tubes are generally welded to these profiles.
- the profiles protrude at each end of the panel, and their ends have recesses for fitting on the tubes.
- the floor described in the patent application EP 1.148.182, published on 24 October 2001 on behalf of EMMESSE is entirely formed of a thin metal plate.
- the metal plate is stiffened by several longitudinal ribs formed by folding the sheet.
- the ends of the floor include inserts.
- the present invention therefore aims to optimize the design of a one-piece scaffolding floor consisting of a metal sheet, of the type comprising a horizontal plate and reinforcement ribs formed by double-ply folds of the sheet itself .
- this floor is remarkable in that at least one end of at least one of the ribs has a cut forming a hook.
- the tray is of substantially rectangular shape and the ribs are formed longitudinally below it.
- the folds forming the ribs are advantageously flat and extend vertically.
- the cutting of the end of a rib preferably comprises a semicircle whose concavity is turned downwards.
- the one-piece scaffolding floor according to the invention is also remarkable in that each of the ribs has at least one extension extending outside the plate.
- the edge of the plate then comprises at least one rectangular notch whose width is equal to the thickness of this extension increased by a predetermined play, and whose depth is equal to or greater than the length of this same extension minus a predetermined mounting interval.

- An additional feature of this one-piece scaffold floor is that it comprises at least one locking cam arranged in the vicinity of the cut of a rib.
- the upper face of the plate preferably comprises a non-slip coating.
- the preferred embodiment of the invention relates to a scaffold floor 1 for use with the most common metal tube structures.
- the Figure 1 shows the tray 2 of substantially rectangular shape which is the main element of this floor.
- Two longitudinal ribs 3, whose core is arranged perpendicular to the plate 2, provide the rigidity of the floor 1.
- the plate 2 also has lateral wings 4 formed by folding the edge of the sheet, which also contribute to stiffen it.
- the ribs 3 are formed by flat folds, extending vertically in normal use, the sheet constituting the floor 1.
- the floor 1 is made of sheet 15/10, which is a good compromise between rigidity and weight.
- the plateau 2 has a standard width of 350 mm, and the lateral wings 4 have a height of the order of 20 mm.
- the upper part of the plate 2 advantageously comprises a non-slip coating which improves the safety of the workers who are driven and parked on the floor 1.
- the ribs 3 have at each end extensions 5.6 extending beyond the transverse edges of the plate 2.
- extensions 5, 6 each have a half-circle shaped cutout 7,8 so as to form a recess whose downward opening makes it possible to hook the corresponding end of the rib 3 onto the tubular structure. scaffolding.

- the Figure 4 shows the particular shape of these cams 13.
- Each of them has a median portion 14, of the general shape of a hook, and is articulated at one end about an axis 15 located above the corresponding cut 7,8 of the rib 3.
- the other end of the cam 13 comprises a solid element 16 forming both, on the one hand, a plane inclined in contact with the tube 12 so as to move the middle portion 14 of the cam 13 and to release the entrance the recess 8 of the rib 3 and, secondly, a counterweight so as to return by gravity the middle portion 14 of the cam 13 to its initial position after engagement of the tube 12 and thus automatically block the end 6 rib 3 on this tube 12.
- the cam 13 is said to be "self-locking" insofar as its shape is such that the vertical forces exerted by the tube 12 on its lower end 16 after engagement produce a pair tending to further close the recess 7, 8.
- the cam 13 can not be opened for the dismantling of the floor 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 5e , By a manual and voluntary action on the lower end 16 of the cam 13, which also advantageously has the form of a lever.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un plancher d'échafaudage monobloc, c'est-à -dire qu'aucun embout séparé ou crochet supplémentaire n'est ajouté par l'utilisateur pour permettre la mise en place et l'accrochage d'un tel plancher monobloc sur les échafaudages ou les structures analogues.The present invention relates to a single-piece scaffolding floor, that is to say that no separate end piece or additional hook is added by the user to allow the establishment and attachment of such a monoblock floor on scaffolding or similar structures.
Au cours de la construction ou de l'entretien de bâtiments, des échafaudages sont habituellement mis en oeuvre afin que les ouvriers puissent travailler en hauteur en toute sécurité.During the construction or maintenance of buildings, scaffolding is usually carried out so that workers can work at height safely.
Un type très courant d'échafaudage est formé par un assemblage de tubes métalliques, verticaux et horizontaux, formant une structure en treillis. Des planchers sur lesquels travaillent et circulent les ouvriers reposent sur les tubes horizontaux.A very common type of scaffold is formed by an assembly of metal tubes, vertical and horizontal, forming a lattice structure. Floors on which workers work and circulate rest on the horizontal tubes.
Traditionnellement, ces planchers ont été constitués par des madriers, mais ceux-ci présentaient des risques de glissement, et leur solidité n'était pas toujours certaine.Traditionally, these floors were made of planks, but these had risks of sliding, and their solidity was not always certain.
Pour des raisons de sécurité, les planchers en bois ont donc été renforcés par des éléments métalliques.For safety reasons, wooden floors have been reinforced with metal elements.
Le plancher d'échafaudage décrit dans le brevet
Des crochets pour fixer le plancher sur les tubes de l'échafaudage sont généralement soudés sur ces profilés. Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, les profilés dépassent à chaque bout du panneau, et leurs extrémités comportent des évidements destinés à s'adapter sur les tubes.Hooks for securing the floor to the scaffold tubes are generally welded to these profiles. In a particular embodiment, the profiles protrude at each end of the panel, and their ends have recesses for fitting on the tubes.
L'intégration des crochets dans les profilés latéraux simplifie la fabrication du plancher, mais celui-ci demeure composite, et la majeure partie est formée d'un matériau particulièrement lourd.The integration of the hooks in the side profiles simplifies the manufacture of the floor, but it remains composite, and the majority is made of a particularly heavy material.
Afin de pallier ces inconvénients, le plancher décrit dans la demande de brevet
Le plancher décrit dans cette dernière demande de brevet semble présenter l'avantage d'être plus léger et plus solide que les planchers non entièrement métalliques, mais il est possible que les embouts non intégrés conduisent à des difficultés de fabrication.The floor described in the latter patent application appears to have the advantage of being lighter and stronger than non-all-metal floors, but it is possible that the non-integrated end caps lead to manufacturing difficulties.
Les documents cités ci-dessus montrent donc que des solutions tendant à remplacer les traditionnelles planches d'échafaudage par des planchers monoblocs plus légers, plus solides, de fabrication aisée, sont connues de l'état de la technique.The documents cited above thus show that solutions tending to replace the traditional scaffolding boards with monobloc floors which are lighter, more robust and easy to manufacture, are known from the state of the art.
Mais aucune des solutions connues ne semble totalement optimum.But none of the known solutions seems totally optimal.
La présente invention vise donc à optimiser la conception d'un plancher d'échafaudage monobloc constitué d'une tôle métallique, du type de ceux comprenant un plateau horizontal et des nervures de renforcement formées par des plis à double épaisseur de la tôle elle-même.The present invention therefore aims to optimize the design of a one-piece scaffolding floor consisting of a metal sheet, of the type comprising a horizontal plate and reinforcement ribs formed by double-ply folds of the sheet itself .
Selon l'invention, ce plancher est remarquable en ce qu'au moins une extrémité d'au moins une des nervures présente une découpe formant crochet.According to the invention, this floor is remarkable in that at least one end of at least one of the ribs has a cut forming a hook.
De préférence, le plateau est de forme sensiblement rectangulaire et les nervures sont formées longitudinalement en dessous de celui-ci.Preferably, the tray is of substantially rectangular shape and the ribs are formed longitudinally below it.
De plus, les plis formant les nervures sont avantageusement plats et s'étendent verticalement.In addition, the folds forming the ribs are advantageously flat and extend vertically.
Selon une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, la découpe de l'extrémité d'une nervure comprend préférentiellement un demi-cercle dont la concavité est tournée vers le bas.According to an additional feature of the invention, the cutting of the end of a rib preferably comprises a semicircle whose concavity is turned downwards.
Fort avantageusement, le plancher d'échafaudage monobloc selon l'invention est aussi remarquable en ce que chacune des nervures présente au moins une extension s'étendant à l'extérieur du plateau.Advantageously, the one-piece scaffolding floor according to the invention is also remarkable in that each of the ribs has at least one extension extending outside the plate.
De préférence, le bord du plateau comporte alors au moins une encoche rectangulaire dont la largeur est égale à l'épaisseur de cette extension augmentée d'un jeu prédéterminé, et dont la profondeur est égale ou supérieure à la longueur de cette même extension diminuée d'un intervalle de montage prédéterminé.Preferably, the edge of the plate then comprises at least one rectangular notch whose width is equal to the thickness of this extension increased by a predetermined play, and whose depth is equal to or greater than the length of this same extension minus a predetermined mounting interval.
On tire bénéfice du fait que le plateau du plancher d'échafaudage selon l'invention présente un axe de symétrie longitudinal, et que les nervures sont agencées parallèlement à cet axe de symétrie de manière dissymétrique.It benefits from the fact that the platform of the scaffolding floor according to the invention has a longitudinal axis of symmetry, and that the ribs are arranged parallel to this asymmetric axis of symmetry.
Une caractéristique supplémentaire de ce plancher d'échafaudage monobloc est qu'il comporte au moins une came de verrouillage agencée au voisinage de la découpe d'une nervure.An additional feature of this one-piece scaffold floor is that it comprises at least one locking cam arranged in the vicinity of the cut of a rib.
Il comporte également avantageusement au moins une poignée de manutention constituée d'un plat en forme de N dont l'une et l'autre extrémités sont rivetées respectivement au voisinage de l'aile de l'une des nervures et au voisinage de la base d'une autre des nervures.It also advantageously comprises at least one handle consisting of an N-shaped plate whose one and the other ends are riveted respectively in the vicinity of the wing of one of the ribs and in the vicinity of the base of another of the ribs.
De plus, la face supérieure du plateau comporte de préférence un revêtement antidérapant.In addition, the upper face of the plate preferably comprises a non-slip coating.
Ces quelques spécifications essentielles rendent évidents pour l'homme de métier les avantages apportés par ce plancher d'échafaudage monobloc par rapport à l'état de la technique antérieur.These few essential specifications make it obvious to the skilled person the benefits of this one-piece scaffold floor compared to the state of the prior art.
Les spécifications détaillées de l'invention sont données dans la description qui suit en liaison avec les dessins ci-annexés. Il est à noter que ces dessins n'ont d'autre but que d'illustrer le texte de la description et qu'ils ne constituent en aucune sorte une limitation de la portée de l'invention.The detailed specifications of the invention are given in the following description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these drawings have no other purpose than to illustrate the text of the description and that they do not constitute in any way a limitation of the scope of the invention.

Le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention concerne un plancher 1 d'échafaudage destiné à être utilisé avec les structures en tubes métalliques les plus courantes.The preferred embodiment of the invention relates to a
La
Deux nervures 3 longitudinales, dont l'âme est agencée perpendiculairement au plateau 2, assurent la rigidité du plancher 1.Two
Le plateau 2 comporte également des ailes latérales 4 formées par le pliage du bord de la tôle, qui contribuent aussi à le rigidifier.The
Comme le montre bien la vue de profil de la
De préférence, le plancher 1 est réalisé en tôle 15/10, ce qui constitue un bon compromis entre rigidité et poids. Le plateau 2 a une largeur standard de 350 mm, et les ailes latérales 4 ont une hauteur de l'ordre de 20 mm.Preferably, the
La partie supérieure du plateau 2 comporte avantageusement un revêtement antidérapant qui améliore la sécurité des ouvriers amenés à circuler et à stationner sur le plancher 1.The upper part of the
Les nervures 3 présentent à chaque extrémité des extensions 5,6 dépassant des bords transversaux du plateau 2.The
Ces extensions 5,6 présentent chacune une découpe 7,8 en forme de demi-cercle de façon à constituer un évidement dont l'ouverture tournée vers le bas permet l'accrochage de l'extrémité correspondante de la nervure 3 sur la structure en tubes de l'échafaudage.These
Les nervures 3 sont parallèles à l'axe de symétrie XX' du plateau 2, mais agencées de manière dissymétrique par rapport à cet axe XX'. De la sorte, une des deux nervures 3 se trouve plus proche du bord 4 du plateau 2 que l'autre.The
Dans le mode de réalisation préféré correspondant à des dimensions standard du plancher 1, une première nervure 3 est située à environ 52 mm d'un bord 4 du plateau 2, tandis que la seconde nervure 3 s'étend à environ 72 mm de l'autre bord 4.In the preferred embodiment corresponding to standard dimensions of the
Des encoches 9,10 étant prévues à chaque extrémité du plateau 2 pour le passage des extensions 5,6, cette disposition, comme le montre bien la
De préférence, les nervures 3 du plateau 2 mesurent environ 65 mm de haut, et leurs extensions 5,6 mesurent environ 45 mm de long. De ce fait, en tenant compte de l'intervalle de montage 11 de 10 mm, il suffit que les encoches 9,10 aient une profondeur de l'ordre de 40 mm pour réaliser l'assemblage. La largeur des encoches 9,10 est de l'ordre de 12 mm, c'est-à -dire que le jeu est largement suffisant pour permettre le passage sans difficulté des extensions 5,6 dont l'épaisseur est de l'ordre d'une double épaisseur de tôle 15/10.Preferably, the
Afin d'assurer le blocage du plancher 1 sur les montants de l'échafaudage, les extrémités 5,6 des nervures 3 comportent des moyens de verrouillage constitués par des cames auto-bloquantes 13.In order to ensure the blocking of the
La
Chacune d'entre elles comporte une partie médiane 14, de la forme générale d'un crochet, et est articulée à une extrémité autour d'un axe 15 situé au dessus de la découpe 7,8 correspondante de la nervure 3.Each of them has a
L'autre extrémité de la came 13 comporte un élément massif 16 formant à la fois, d'une part, un plan incliné au contact avec le tube 12 de manière à déplacer la partie médiane 14 de la came 13 et à libérer l'entrée de l'évidement 8 de la nervure 3 et, d'autre part, un contrepoids de façon à ramener par gravité la partie médiane 14 de la came 13 vers sa position initiale après engagement du tube 12 et à bloquer ainsi automatiquement l'extrémité 6 de la nervure 3 sur ce tube 12.The other end of the
Les tubes 12 constituant les échafaudages les plus courants ont un diamètre standard de 50 mm. Dans le mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les dimensions de la découpe 7,8 et celles de la came 13 sont adaptées à ce standard :
- diamètre de la découpe 7,8 : 52 mm ;
- largeur de la partie médiane 14 de la came 13 : 10 mm ;
- rayon de courbure intérieur de la partie médiane 14 de la came 13 : 27 mm ;
- rayon de courbure extérieur de la partie médiane 14 de la came 13 : 30 mm ;
- largeur de l'extrémité inférieure 16 de la came 13: 12 mm ;
- longueur de l'extrémité inférieure 16 de la came 13: 42,65 mm ;
- distance de l'axe d'articulation 15 de la came 13 par rapport à l'extrémité 6 de la nervure 3 : 35 mm ;
- distance de l'axe d'articulation 15 de la came 13 par rapport au plan du plateau 2 : 6 mm.
- diameter of the cutout 7.8: 52 mm;
- width of the
middle portion 14 of the cam 13: 10 mm; - inner radius of curvature of the
middle portion 14 of the cam 13: 27 mm; - outer radius of curvature of the
middle portion 14 of the cam 13: 30 mm; - width of the
lower end 16 of the cam 13: 12 mm; - length of the
lower end 16 of the cam 13: 42.65 mm; - distance from the axis of
articulation 15 of thecam 13 relative to theend 6 of the rib 3: 35 mm; - distance from the axis of
articulation 15 of thecam 13 relative to the plane of the plate 2: 6 mm.
La came 13 est dite « auto-bloquante » dans la mesure où sa forme est telle que les efforts verticaux exercés par le tube 12 sur son extrémité inférieure 16 après engagement produisent un couple tendant à fermer davantage l'évidement 7, 8 .The
Les étapes successives du processus d'auto-blocage des cames 13 sont représentées en détail sur les
- a) présentation du plancher 1 au dessus de l'échafaudage (
Figure 5a )
Le contrepoids 16 maintient par gravité l'extrémité inférieure de la came 13 sous sonaxe de rotation 15 ; de la sorte, le crochet formé par la came 13 est maintenu entrouvert ; - b) descente du plancher pour mise en place (
Figure 5b ).
Le plan incliné du contrepoids 16 en contact avec letube 12 déplace graduellement la partie médiane 14 de la came 13, qui alors s'efface et permet l'engagement dutube 12 dans l'évidement 7,8 de l'extrémité 5,6 de la nervure 3 ; - c) mise en place du plancher sur le tube (
Figure 5c )
La came 13 est complètement effacée ; letube 12 est presque complètement engagé dans l'évidement 7,8 de l'extrémité 5,6 de la nervure 3 ; - d) blocage du plancher sur le tube (
Figure 5d )
La came 13 étant complètement effacée, après franchissement du plan diamétral dutube 12, le contrepoids 16 ramène ladite came vers sa position initiale, c'est-à -dire en position d'auto-blocage.
- a) presentation of the
floor 1 above the scaffolding (Figure 5a )
Thecounterweight 16 maintains by gravity the lower end of thecam 13 under its axis ofrotation 15; in this way, the hook formed by thecam 13 is kept ajar; - b) lowering the floor for placement (
Figure 5b ).
The inclined plane of thecounterweight 16 in contact with thetube 12 gradually displaces themiddle portion 14 of thecam 13, which then disappears and allows the engagement of thetube 12 in the 7,8 of therecess 5,6end rib 3; - c) placing the floor on the tube (
Figure 5c )
Cam 13 is completely erased; thetube 12 is almost completely engaged in the 7,8 of therecess 5,6 of theend rib 3; - d) blocking the floor on the tube (
Figure 5d )
Thecam 13 being completely erased, after crossing the diametral plane of thetube 12, thecounterweight 16 returns said cam to its initial position, that is to say in the self-locking position.
La came 13 ne peut être ouverte en vue du démontage du plancher 1, comme le montre la
Avant, en cours, ou après montage, le plancher 1 est plus aisément manipulé grâce à des poignées de manutention 17 fixées sur les nervures 3 comme le montre la
Cette poignée 17 est constituée d'un plat en forme de N dont une extrémité 18 est rivetée au voisinage de l'aile la plus externe d'une nervure 3 et dont l'autre extrémité 19 est rivetée au voisinage de la base la plus interne de l'autre nervure 3.This

En effet, il est possible d'emboîter deux planchers 1 identiques l'un dans l'autre après un retournement vertical de l'un d'entre eux, les nervures 3 et les poignées 17 de chacun d'eux se juxtaposant parallèlement à celles de l'autre. De la sorte, le conditionnement est plus compact : le colisage des planchers 1 selon l'invention est deux fois moins volumineux que celui des planchers connus de l'état de la technique.Indeed, it is possible to fit two
Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas au seul mode d'exécution préférentiel décrit ci-dessus.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the single preferred embodiment described above.
Sans autre modification que les formes de la découpe 7,8 et de la came 13, la même description s'applique à des planchers 1 adaptés à des échafaudages dont la structure est constituée par des montants autres que des tubes, par exemple par des profilés de section carrée ou autre.Without any modification other than the shapes of the
