Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine de la réalisation d'ouvrages de construction, au sens général, réalisés à partir d'éléments modulaires assemblés à sec.The present invention relates to the field of the realization of construction works, in the general sense, made from modular elements assembled dry.

L'invention se rapporte, plus particulièrement, à un élément de construction modulaire dont l'empilement, en lits superposés à sec, permet la réalisation d'ouvrages de construction, du type notamment de protection, d'isolation, de décoration et, principalement, de soutènement.The invention relates, more particularly, to a modular building element whose stacking, in dry bunk beds, allows the realization of construction works, particularly of the type of protection, insulation, decoration and, mainly , support.

L'objet de l'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse pour réaliser, en tant qu'ouvrage de construction, végétalisé ou non, un mur, une paroi, un talus, une digue, un massif, etc.The object of the invention finds a particularly advantageous application for producing, as a construction work, vegetated or not, a wall, a wall, an embankment, a dike, a solid mass, etc.

L'art antérieur a proposé de nombreuses formes de réalisation d'éléments de construction modulaires, réalisés à partir de différents matériaux, tels qu'en béton armé ou non, ou en bois massif ou reconstitué.The prior art has proposed many embodiments of modular building elements, made from different materials, such as reinforced concrete or not, or solid wood or reconstituted.

Les éléments de construction modulaire en bois présentent l'intérêt d'être naturels en se fondant particulièrement bien dans le paysage. Par exemple il est connu, par le brevet EP 1 252 398 , de réaliser un ouvrage à partir de planches en bois ouvrées, formant des longerons de façades placés bout à bout et s'étendant à distance et de façon parallèle à des longerons de fond mis également bout à bout. Les longerons sont montés sur des entretoises disposées à distance les unes des autres et présentant des entailles pour le maintien des longerons. Les longerons s'étendent en lits superposés entre chacun desquels est interposé un lit d'entretoises. Le volume interne, délimité entre les longerons et les entretoises, est rempli par des pierres ou de la roche, afin de constituer l'ouvrage de construction.Modular wooden building elements have the advantage of being natural by blending particularly well in the landscape. For example it is known, by the patent EP 1 252 398 , to produce a work from crafted wooden planks, forming facades of facades placed end to end and extending at a distance and parallel to bottom rails also end to end. The longitudinal members are mounted on spacers spaced apart from each other and having notches for maintaining the longitudinal members. The longitudinal members extend in bunk beds between each of which is interposed a bed of spacers. The internal volume, delimited between the longitudinal members and the spacers, is filled by stones or rock, in order to constitute the construction work.

Il doit, tout d'abord, être considéré que les éléments en bois ouvrés présentent un coût relativement élevé, compte tenu de leur forme particulière pour assurer leur assemblage. De plus, leur mise en place s'avère relativement délicate à mener à bien et nécessite une préparation particulièrement minutieuse du terrain sur lequel ils sont disposés. Enfin, la réalisation d'un ouvrage avec ces éléments préfabriqués nécessite un temps relativement important, incompatible avec la contrainte essentielle, à savoir la rapidité de mise en place d'un ouvrage de soutènement, notamment en bordure d'une voie de circulation.It must first of all be considered that the woodwork elements have a relatively high cost, given their particular shape to ensure their assembly. In addition, their implementation is relatively difficult to carry out and requires particularly careful preparation of the land on which they are arranged. Finally, the realization of a structure with these prefabricated elements requires a relatively long time, incompatible with the essential constraint, namely the speed of setting up a retaining structure, especially along a traffic lane.

Il est également connu par la demande de brevet FR 2 751 005 , un dispositif pour stabiliser l'érosion d'un support végétal comportant deux lisses parallèles et écartées l'une de l'autre et deux traverses parallèles et écartées l'une de l'autre en étant assemblées aux lisses par des tiges, tel que décrit au préambule de la revendication 1.He is also known by the patent application FR 2 751 005 , a device for stabilizing the erosion of a plant support comprising two parallel rails spaced from each other and two parallel crosspieces and spaced apart from one another by being joined to the rails by rods, such as described in the preamble of claim 1.

L'objet de l'invention vise donc à remédier aux différents inconvénients de l'état de la technique en proposant un ensemble d'éléments de construction modulaires adapté pour être de conception simple, tout en pouvant être mis en oeuvre facilement et rapidement.The object of the invention is therefore to remedy the various disadvantages of the state of the art by proposing a set of modular building elements adapted to be of simple design, while being able to be implemented easily and quickly.

Un autre objectif de l'invention est de proposer un ensemble d'éléments de construction modulaires présentant un effet esthétique certain, tout en possédant un poids relativement limité permettant sa manutention, sans avoir recours à des engins de manutention.Another object of the invention is to provide a set of modular building elements having a certain aesthetic effect, while having a relatively limited weight for handling, without the use of handling equipment.

Pour atteindre un tel objectif, l'objet l'invention concerne un ensemble d'éléments modulaires pour la réalisation d'un ouvrage conforme à la revendication 1.To achieve such an objective, the object of the invention relates to a set of modular elements for the realization of a structure according to claim 1.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de réalisation, les moyens de butée comportent des moyens de réglage de leur positionnement le long des rondins d'assise.According to an advantageous characteristic of realization, the abutment means comprise means of adjustment of their positioning along the logs of base.

Selon une variante préférée de réalisation, les moyens de butée sont constitués par un rondin supporté par le dessus des rondins d'assise en s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement aux rondins de façade et de fond, des moyens d'assemblage étant prévus entre le rondin de butée et les rondins d'assise.According to a preferred embodiment, the abutment means are constituted by a log supported by the top of the seat logs extending substantially parallel to the front and bottom logs, assembly means being provided between the log of abutment and the logs.

Avantageusement, les moyens d'assemblage, entre le rondin de butée et les rondins d'assise, sont communs avec les moyens d'assemblage entre le rondin de fond et les rondins d'assise.Advantageously, the assembly means, between the abutment log and the seat logs, are common with the assembly means between the bottom log and the seat logs.

Pour permettre de conférer à l'ouvrage une direction d'extension non linéaire, le rondin de fond possède une longueur inférieure au rondin de façade, de manière à s'étendre en retrait par rapport à chacune des extrémités du rondin de façade.To allow the structure to be given a direction of non-linear extension, the bottom log has a length less than the front log, so as to extend recessed with respect to each end of the log face.

De préférence, chaque fasce transversale extrême du rondin de façade possède une partie biseautée.Preferably, each extreme transverse fascia of the facade log has a beveled portion.

Selon une forme préférée de réalisation, les rondins de façade et de fond s'étendent de manière sensiblement perpendiculaire aux rondins d'assise.According to a preferred embodiment, the front and bottom logs extend substantially perpendicular to the logs.

A titre d'exemple, les rondins présentent chacun un diamètre compris entre 6 et 60 cm et, de préférence, entre 15 et 35 cm, tandis que le rondin de façade et le rondin de fond possèdent une longueur comprise entre 0,6 et 4 m et, de préférence, entre 0,8 et 2 m et le rondin d'assise une longueur comprise entre 0,4 et 2 m et, de préférence, entre 0,8 et 1,5 m.By way of example, the logs each have a diameter of between 6 and 60 cm and preferably between 15 and 35 cm, while the front and bottom logs have a length of between 0.6 and 4. m and, preferably, between 0.8 and 2 m and the seat log a length of between 0.4 and 2 m and preferably between 0.8 and 1.5 m.

Avantageusement, les rondins sont en bois massif, brut ou reconstitué.Advantageously, the logs are solid wood, raw or reconstituted.

Un autre objet de l'invention est de proposer un ouvrage comportant un empilement d'au moins deux lits superposés d'ensembles d'éléments de construction modulaires conformes comme décrit ci-dessus, le lit inférieur comportant au moins deux éléments de construction modulaires dont les rondins de façade sont mis bout à bout, tandis que le lit supérieur comporte au moins un élément de construction modulaire dont le rondin de fond est en appui contre au moins un rondin d'appui du lit inférieur.Another object of the invention is to propose a structure comprising a stack of at least two superposed beds of sets of modular building elements conforming as described above, the lower bed comprising at least two modular building elements of which the front logs are placed end to end, while the upper bed comprises at least one modular building element whose bottom log bears against at least one support log of the lower bed.

Diverses autres caractéristiques ressortent de la description faite ci-dessous en référence aux dessins annexés qui montrent, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention.Various other characteristics appear from the description given below with reference to the accompanying drawings which show, by way of non-limiting examples, embodiments of the subject of the invention.

Tel que cela ressort plus précisément des fig. 1 à 3 , l'objet de l'invention concerne un ensemble d'éléments de construction modulaires 1 permettant de réaliser un ouvrage 2 au sens général. Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré, l'élément de construction modulaire 1 comporte au moins un rondin de façade 3 et un rondin de fond 4 s'étendant à distance l'un de l'autre et de manière sensiblement parallèle. L'élément de construction modulaire 1 comporte, également, au moins deux et, dans l'exemple illustré, deux rondins d'assise 6 supportés chacun par le dessus du rondin de façade 3 et le dessus du rondin de fond 4, en s'étendant à distance l'un de l'autre. Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré, les deux rondins d'assise 6 s'étendent sensiblement parallèlement l'un à l'autre et de manière sensiblement perpendiculaire aux rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4. As more specifically Fig. 1 to 3 The object of the invention relates to a set of modular building elements 1 for producing a structure 2 in the general sense. In the exemplary embodiment illustrated, the modular building element 1 comprises at least one facade log 3 and a bottom log 4 extending at a distance from one another and substantially parallel. The modular building element 1 also comprises at least two and, in the illustrated example, two sill logs 6 each supported by the top of the facade log 3 and the top of the bottom log 4, in turn. extending at a distance from each other. In the exemplary embodiment illustrated, the two seatbars 6 extend substantially parallel to each other and substantially perpendicularly to the front and bottom logs 3 and 4.

Il doit être considéré que les rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4 s'étendent à un niveau inférieur par rapport au plan d'extension des rondins d'assise 6. Avantageusement, chaque rondin 3, 4, 6 présente une section droite transversale sensiblement circulaire. Préférentiellement encore, chaque rondin 3, 4, 6 est réalisé en bois massif ou reconstitué. De préférence, chaque rondin 3, 4, 6 est constitué en bois massif, équarrit ou non au diamètre voulu.It must be considered that the log front 3 and bottom 4 extend to a lower level with respect to the extension plane of the seat 6. Advantageously logs, each log 3, 4, 6 has a cross section substantially circular. Preferentially, each log 3, 4, 6 is made of solid or reconstituted wood. Preferably, each log 3, 4, 6 is made of solid wood, squared or not to the desired diameter.

Le rondin de façade 3 présente un diamètre sensiblement égal au rondin de fond 4. De même, les deux rondins d'assise 6 présentent des diamètres sensiblement identiques. De préférence encore, le diamètre des rondins d'assise 6 est sensiblement identique au diamètre des rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4. The front wall 3 has a diameter substantially equal to the bottom log 4. Similarly, the two seat logs 6 have substantially identical diameters. More preferably, the diameter of the seat logs 6 is substantially identical to the diameter of the front and bottom logs 3 and 4.

Bien entendu, il peut être envisagé que le diamètre des rondins d'assise 6 présente une valeur différente du diamètre des rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4. Dans le même sens, il est clair que la section droite transversale des rondins 3, 4, 6 peut être différente à celle assimilable à un disque. Ainsi, la section droite transversale des rondins 3, 4, 6 peut être, par exemple polygonale.Of course, it may be contemplated that the diameter of the seat 6 log has a different value of the diameter of front 3 logs of background and 4. Similarly, it is clear that the cross section of the log 3, 4 , 6 can be different to that comparable to a disk. Thus, the cross section of the logs 3, 4, 6 can be, for example polygonal.

A titre d'exemple, les rondins 3, 4, 6 présentent chacun un diamètre compris entre 6 et 60 cm et, de préférence, compris entre 15 et 35 cm. Le rondin de façade 3 ou le rondin de fond 4 possède une longueur comprise entre 0,6 et 4 m et, de préférence, entre 0,8 et 2 m. Le rondin d'assise 6 possède une longueur comprise entre 0,4 et 2m et, de préférence, entre 0,8 et 1,5 m.By way of example, the logs 3, 4, 6 each have a diameter of between 6 and 60 cm and preferably between 15 and 35 cm. The facade log 3 or the bottom log 4 has a length of between 0.6 and 4 m, and preferably between 0.8 and 2 m. The seat ring 6 has a length of between 0.4 and 2m and preferably between 0.8 and 1.5m.

L'élément de construction modulaire 1 comporte, également, des moyens 8 d'assemblage entre chaque rondin d'assise 6 et chacun des rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4. Ces moyens d'assemblage 8 sont de tout type connu en soi, permettant d'assurer une liaison efficace entre les rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4 et les rondins d'assise 6 s'étendant au niveau supérieur. Par exemple, ces moyens d'assemblage sont constitués par des tire-fonds, des chevilles, des fers à béton ou des vis.The modular building element 1 also comprises means 8 for connection between each seat log 6 and log each front 3 and bottom 4. These connecting means 8 are of any type known per se, to ensure an effective connection between the front 3 and bottom of the logs 4 and the foundation logs 6 extending to the upper level. For example, these assembly means are constituted by lag bolts, dowels, rebars or screws.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'objet de l'invention, l'élément de construction modulaire 1 comporte des moyens de butée 10 pour un rondin de fond 41 d'un élément de construction analogue 11 superposé venant à être posé sur les rondins d'assise 6. Ainsi, tel que cela ressort des figures 4 à 7 , les moyens de butée 10 permettent d'assurer un blocage de l'élément de construction analogue, monté de façon superposée, de manière que le rondin de fond 41 se trouve situé à l'arrière des moyens de butée 10 en considération de l'avant de l'élément 1 formé par le rondin de façade 3. Les moyens de butée 10 bloquent le déplacement de l'élément de construction superposé 11 dans le sens rondin de fond 4 - rondin de façade 3, représenté par la flèche f1. Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les dessins, les moyens de butée 10 sont constitués par un rondin supporté par le dessus des rondins d'assise 6 en s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement aux rondins de façade 3 et de fond 4. According to another characteristic of the subject of the invention, the modular building element 1 comprises stop means 10 for a bottom log 4 1 of a similar building element 1 1 superimposed to be placed on the logs 6. Thus, as Figures 4 to 7 , The stop means 10 enable to ensure blocking of the analogous construction element, mounted in superimposed manner so that the bottom of log 4 1 is located on the back abutment means 10 in consideration of before the element 1 formed by the front wall 3. The stop means 10 block the displacement of the superimposed building element 1 1 in the direction of the bottom log 4 - front wall 3, represented by the arrow f 1 . In the embodiment shown in the drawings, the abutment means 10 consist of a log supported by the top of the seat logs 6 extending substantially parallel to the front and bottom logs 3 and 4.

Des moyens d'assemblage 13 sont prévus, entre le rondin de butée 10 et les rondins d'assise 6. Ces moyens d'assemblage 13 sont identiques ou différents des moyens d'assemblage 8. Joining means 13 are provided between the stop log 10 and the seat logs 6. These connecting means 13 are identical or different from the assembly means 8.

Avantageusement, le rondin de butée 10 s'étend à l'aplomb ou de manière sensiblement superposée au rondin de fond 4. Dans cet exemple de réalisation, il peut être avantageux que les moyens d'assemblage 13 et les moyens d'assemblage 8 soient communs. En d'autres termes, le rondin de fond 4 est assemblé au rondin d'assise 6 et au rondin de butée 10 par l'intermédiaire de moyens d'assemblage 8, 13 communs. Par exemple, ces moyens d'assemblage 8, 13 peuvent être constitués par l'intermédiaire d'un tire-fond traversant, comme illustré à la fig. 3 . Advantageously, the abutment log 10 extends plumb or substantially superimposed on the bottom log 4. In this embodiment, it may be advantageous if the assembly means 13 and the assembly means 8 are common. In other words, the bottom log 4 is assembled to the seat ring 6 and the stop log 10 by means of assembly means 8, 13 common. For example, these assembly means 8, 13 may be constituted by means of a lag bolt, as illustrated in FIG. Fig. 3 .

Selon une autre variante de réalisation, il est à noter que le rondin de butée 10 peut comporter des moyens de réglage de son positionnement le long des rondins d'assise 6. En d'autres termes, le rondin de butée 10 peut être réglé en profondeur par rapport au rondin de façade 3, de manière à pouvoir régler le fruit de l'ouvrage à réaliser. Dans cette forme de réalisation, les moyens d'assemblage 13 du rondin de butée 10 peuvent présenter un caractère amovible ou démontable, permettant de modifier son positionnement par rapport au rondin de façade 3. Il peut ainsi être prévu de réaliser des pré-perçages le long des rondins d'assise 6 correspondant à différentes positions possibles du rondin de butée 10. According to another variant embodiment, it should be noted that the stop log 10 can comprise means for adjusting its positioning along the logs. seat 6. In other words, the abutment stub 10 can be adjusted in depth relative to the log facade 3, so as to adjust the result of the work to be performed. In this embodiment, the assembly means 13 of the stop log 10 may have a removable or dismountable character, making it possible to modify its positioning with respect to the facade log 3. It may thus be provided to pre-drill the along the logs 6 corresponding to different possible positions of the stop log 10.

Bien entendu, les moyens de butée 10 peuvent être réalisés de manière différente à un rondin unique. Par exemple, les moyens de butée 10 peuvent être réalisés par deux éléments distincts fixés sur les rondins d'assise 6 ou sur le rondin de fond 4. Of course, the abutment means 10 may be made differently to a single log. For example, the abutment means 10 may be made by two separate elements fixed on the seat bars 6 or on the bottom log 4.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de réalisation, il est à noter que le rondin de fond 4 possède une longueur inférieure par rapport au rondin de façade 3, de manière à s'étendre en retrait par rapport à chacune des extrémités du rondin de façade 3. Tel que cela ressort plus précisément de la fig. 2, il peut être prévu que le rondin de façade 3 dépasse de part et d'autre par rapport à chaque rondin d'assise 6, tandis que le rondin de fond 4 et le rondin de butée 10 s'étendent sensiblement jusqu'à chaque rondin d'assise 6. Cette disposition permet de placer côte à côte deux éléments de construction 1 avec un décalage angulaire entre eux. En d'autres termes, selon cette variante, les rondins de façade 3 de deux éléments de construction côte à côte ne sont pas alignés.According to an advantageous embodiment, it should be noted that the bottom log 4 has a shorter length compared to the front log 3, so as to extend back from each of the ends of the front wall 3. Tel that this is more accurately apparent from the Fig. 2 it can be provided that the front wall 3 protrudes from each side with respect to each seat log 6, while the bottom log 4 and the stop log 10 extend substantially to each log seat 6. This arrangement makes it possible to place two side by side building elements 1 with an angular offset between them. In other words, according to this variant, the facade logs 3 of two building elements side by side are not aligned.

Selon une variante préférée de réalisation, chaque extrémité du rondin de façade 3 comporte une partie biseautée 15 permettant la mise en contact bout à bout des rondins de façade 3 lorsque deux éléments de construction modulaire sont placés côte à côte avec un angle relatif entre eux.According to a preferred embodiment, each end of the front wall 3 comprises a beveled portion 15 allowing the end-to-end logs 3 to come into contact when two modular building elements are placed side by side with a relative angle between them.

Chaque élément de construction modulaire 1 adapté à la réalisation d'un ensemble conforme à l'invention constitue donc un élément de construction relativement simple, pouvant être mis en oeuvre relativement facilement. Ainsi, à titre d'exemple, un ouvrage de 20 m2 a été réalisé en une heure à l'aide de 300 éléments de construction modulaires conformes à l'invention.Each modular building element 1 adapted to the realization of an assembly according to the invention therefore constitutes a relatively simple construction element, which can be implemented relatively easily. Thus, for example, a structure of 20 m 2 was produced in one hour using 300 modular building elements according to the invention.

Pour réaliser un ouvrage de construction 2, il convient, après l'aménagement d'un terrain, de poser côte à côte les éléments de construction 1 en mettant bous à bout les rondins de façade 3 avec un décalage d'alignement ou non, qui est fonction de la forme à donner à l'ouvrage. Il est ainsi constitué un premier lit au-dessus duquel peut être placé un deuxième lit d'éléments de construction modulaire 11 formant un ensemble conforme à l'invention, placé de manière que chaque rondin de fond 41 vienne en butée ou en appui contre un rondin d'appui 10 d'un élément de construction modulaire faisant partie du lit inférieur. Le positionnement des éléments de construction 11 est simple puisqu'il se réduit à placer les rondins de fond 41 en arrière des rondins de butée 10 du lit inférieur selon une direction d'extension sensiblement parallèle aux rondins de fond 4 du lit inférieur. Chaque élément de construction modulaire 11 du lit supérieur se trouve donc directement mis en position et bloqué par rapport au lit inférieur.In order to produce a construction structure 2, it is advisable, after the construction of a site, to place the construction elements 1 side by side, by putting the facade logs 3 in alignment with an alignment offset or not, which is function of the form to give to the work. It thus constitutes a first bed above which can be placed a second bed of modular building elements 1 1 forming an assembly according to the invention, placed so that each bottom log 4 1 abuts or abuts against a support log 10 of a modular building element forming part of the lower bed. The positioning of the building elements 1 1 is simple since it is reduced to placing the bottom logs 4 1 behind the stop logs 10 of the lower bed in a direction of extension substantially parallel to the bottom logs 4 of the lower bed. Each modular building element 1 1 of the upper bed is therefore directly placed in position and locked relative to the lower bed.

Les éléments de construction modulaires 11 sont montés en quinconce ou de manière superposée par rapport aux éléments de construction modulaires du lit inférieur. Les espaces, délimité entre les éléments de construction, sont remplis de terre, de pierres ou de rochers, au fur et à mesure de l'édification, de préférence, de chaque lit. Des lits d'éléments de construction modulaires 11 sont ainsi réalisés sur une hauteur adaptée pour édifier l'ouvrage 2. The modular building elements 1 1 are mounted in staggered rows or superimposed with respect to the modular building elements of the lower bed. The spaces, delimited between the elements of construction, are filled with earth, stones or rocks, as and when the construction, preferably, of each bed. Modular building element beds 1 1 are thus made to a height adapted to build the structure 2.

Il est à noter que les éléments de construction 1 du lit inférieur peuvent être bloqués ou ancrés au sol par tout moyen approprié, compte tenu de l'ouvrage à réaliser. Dans le même sens, il est à noter que le montage en quinconce des éléments de construction modulaire 1i dans les différents lits ( fig. 5 ) permet d'assurer une solidarisation des éléments entre eux renforçant la stabilité de l'ouvrage.It should be noted that the construction elements 1 of the lower bed can be blocked or anchored to the ground by any appropriate means, given the work to be done. In the same direction, it should be noted that the staggered assembly of the modular building elements 1 i in the different beds ( Fig. 5 ) makes it possible to secure the elements together to strengthen the stability of the structure.

Dans la description qui précède, l'élément de construction modulaire comporte deux rondins d'assise 6. Bien entendu, il peut être prévu que l'élément de construction modulaire comporte un nombre plus important de rondins d'assise 6. In the foregoing description, the modular building element comprises two seat logs 6. Of course, it may be provided that the modular building element comprises a larger number of seat logs 6.
