Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of storage, transport, handling and laying of tubes, sheaths or cables arranged in cores or coils, and used especially in the context of drinking water, gas, telecommunications or of geothermal energy. It relates more particularly to a rechargeable and removable drum.
  • the tubes or cables are generally packaged on reels and stored and transported in this form of packaging.
  • the empty reels must be returned to an industrial manufacturer said tubes or cables for reloading crown or coil.
  • the manufacturer must have a stock or large fleet of reels.
  • the latter are bulky, cumbersome and heavy, so the manufacturer must also have storage areas adapted to this stock, a management system of this stock and handling equipment to process this stock.
  • said reels are transported to a position in which one of the flanges component is vertically disposed, which has the effect of limiting the number of drums that can be transported in a trailer and thus increase transportation costs.
  • the customer namely the company setting up on site sites the tubes or cables pre-mounted on reels, must also have a reel management system that is delivered to him and for which he pays a handling fee. rental and immobilization, and a budget for the return transport of empty reels to the manufacturer.
  • the known reels do not support multiple crowns or coils without appearing entanglement tubes, cables or sheaths constituting said crowns or coils.
  • the present invention aims to overcome at least some of the aforementioned drawbacks.
  • a reelable and removable drum for unwinding at least one ring or coil of tube or cable, consisting of two flanges connected together by a core or drum, characterized in that the two flanges are detachable from the core or drum and in that the core or drum has a removable structure.
  • the invention also relates to a method of mounting a drum with simultaneous introduction of one or more crowns or coils tube or cable, these coils tube or cable may be different in color or in size, according to the specific need of the site.
  • the drum 1 rechargeable and dismountable for the unwinding of at least one ring or coil 11 of tube or cable, consisting of two flanges 2 and 3 interconnected by a core or drum 4, is characterized in that the two flanges 2 and 3 are separable from the core or drum 4 and in that the core or drum 4 has a removable structure.
  • This structure of the drum 1 according to the invention therefore allows, after unwinding of the ring or coil 11 of tube or cable, to completely disassemble, so that it occupies a limited volume.
  • the customer can therefore store the drum 1 according to the invention in disassembled position pending receipt of one or more rings or coils 11.
  • the invention it is therefore possible for the industrial manufacturer tubes or cables to deliver said tubes or cables in the form of coils or rings 11 to be mounted by the customer on a drum 1 according to the invention. It is therefore no longer necessary to condition the tubes or cables on drums and to transport the assembly thus conditioned.
  • a first advantage relates to the production of crowns or coils only, instead of crowns or reels premounted on reels, which allows to increase the rates and obtain a lower cost.
  • a second advantage is inherent in the transport cost which is reduced, since the crowns or coils alone are less bulky and especially less heavy than the assembly formed by the crowns or reels premounted on reels. In addition, this eliminates the return paths of known empty reels. Finally, the industrial manufacturer of tubes or cables is no longer subject to receipt of empty reels to start the production of its orders, which allows a shortening of delivery times.
  • the core or drum 4 may be constituted by spacers 5, 5 '"removably attached at each end 5', 5" to a flange 2, respectively 3. Disassembly the core or drum 4 thus makes it possible, in the disengaged or disassembled state of the drum 1, to obtain a flat structure that can be stacked, since the flanges 2 and 3 preferably have a flat structure.
  • the flanges 2 and 3 represented on the Figures 1 and 2 are of tubular constitution, in the form of wheels provided with six spokes, which reduces the weight of the drum 1 and thus facilitate handling. It is of course also possible to make the flanges 2 and 3 in the form of solid discs.
  • the number of spacers 5, 5 '" can be determined according to the inside diameter of the coil (s) or ring (s) 11 to be mounted on the core or drum 4 of the drum 1, or again depending on the type of tube or cable forming the said coils or crowns 11. It may, for example, be necessary to install additional spacers 5, 5 '' to increase the stiffness of the core or drum 4 in the case of mounting coils or rings 11 having a high weight.
  • the core or drum 4 of the drum 1 is constituted by six spacers 5, 5 '".
  • a first flange 2 may have, at its inner face 2 ', receiving members 6 of the first ends 5' of the spacers 5, 5 '", these receiving members 6 being formed as end pieces or spacer portions 5, 5 '". Fixing said first ends 5 'in the corresponding receiving members 6 can be achieved by any mechanical system providing the necessary strength, for example by screw-nut assemblies, snap, pinch or clamping.
  • the second flange 3 may have, at its inner face 3 ', receiving members 7 of the second ends 5' 'of the spacers 5, 5' ", these receiving members 7 being made in the form of bits or portions of spacer 5, 5 '".
  • Fixing said second ends 5 '' in the corresponding receiving members 7 can be achieved by a quick coupling system 8, for example toggle or pin.
  • a quick coupling system 8 for example toggle or pin.
  • the receiving members 6 and 7 are fixed at the radii of these flanges 2 and 3.
  • the spacers 5, 5 '" may be provided with at least one means for adjusting their length and may have a telescopic structure.
  • a single set of spacers 5, 5 '" makes it possible to produce a drum 1 according to the invention that can be adapted to a large number of widths of crowns or coils 11.
  • the spacers 5, 5 '" may each consist of at least two sections fitted into each other and can be removably locked in a plurality of mutual nesting positions. It is therefore very easy to adapt the drum 1 to any width of crowns or coils 11. It suffices for this to select, on each spacer 5, 5 '", the appropriate interlocking position. Between said sections can be achieved, for example, by a set of lugs and corresponding notches made in said sections.
  • the drum 1 according to the invention has at least one additional removable flange 12 can be slidably mounted and locked in position on the spacers 5, 5 '" between the two flanges 2 and 3.
  • This additional removable flange 12 may have a structure identical or not to the flanges 2 and 3. It may for example be in the form of a disc, as shown in FIG. figure 3 , or have a tubular structure such as that of the flanges 2 and 3 shown in FIGS. Figures 1, 2 and 4 .
  • This additional removable flange 12 may be locked in position on one or more cross members 5, 5 '", for example by a screw, a pin, a shim or any other similar fastening means.
  • a spacer 5 '" may have a device 10 for attaching one or more crowns or coils 11 of tube or cable which rotates the crown (s) or coil (s) 11 together with the core or drum 4.
  • the attachment device 10 may be in the form of one or more chains fixed equidistantly on the spacer 5 '"concerned, at one of their end, said chains having, at their end free, a link adapted to engage with the end of or a tube or cable forming the crown or coils 11 located on the side of the core or drum 4.
  • the figure 2 represents, by way of example, a drum 1 for mounting three rings or coils, having such a fastener device 10 constituted by three chains intended to each retain a ring or coil 11.
  • the figure 4 represents by way of example such a method of mounting a drum 1 with simultaneous introduction of two rings or coils 11.
  • the method consists, in the first place, to have a first flange 2 on the ground (cf. Fig. 4A ).
  • This step does not require an automated hoist, two people can lift and set up the ring or coil 11 on the core or drum 4.
  • the method may also consist, in addition, in inserting and locking in position on the spacers 5, 5 '"at least one additional removable flange 12, so as to maintain in position the crown or coils 11 mounted on the core or Drum 4.
  • additional removable plates it is possible to position one, two or even more such additional removable plates, depending on the specific needs of the site.
  • the reel 1 rechargeable and dismountable according to the invention thus has a great simplicity of manual assembly and disassembly requiring no specific tool. Its completely removable structure and its relatively low weight allow, moreover, to handle it manually, without the need for a mechanical lifting device. In addition, thanks to the removable structure of the drum 1, during the damage of a part, simply replace the latter.
  • the drum 1 is very flexible because it is adaptable to several widths of crowns and several crowns, even of different widths or different diameter of tube or cable. Thus, it is possible to unwind several tubes or cables simultaneously.
  • the fastening device 10 makes it possible to carry out a uniform unwinding, even in the case where several crowns or coils 11 are unwound simultaneously, so that there is no entanglement of loops. tubes or cables during reeling.
  • the drum 1 according to the invention is entirely removable.
  • the flanges 2 and 3 are detachable from the hub or drum 4 and the latter is thus also completely removable.
  • the spacers 5, 5 '" which compose it can be easily detached or detached from the flanges 2 and 3.
  • the spacers 5, 5 '"constituting the hub or drum 4 the latter may for example have a tubular shape.
  • the assembly and disassembly of the drum 1 according to the invention are easy because of the existence, on the flanges 2 and 3, receiving members 6, respectively 7, first and second ends 5 'and 5 spacers 5, 5 '", and may not require tools, depending on the type of attachment chosen.
