  • This family of rollers retains the sleeve by the friction effect that takes place on the internal walls of the latter.
  • the document DE 4426221 discloses a paint roller whose sleeve is positively locked with the axial support of the mount by force fitting of the latter in the inner body of said sleeve.
  • the disadvantage of this device is again the need to apply a significant traction on the sleeve during disassembly.
  • rollers to be painted, operating according to this same principle of radial expansion of several members which engage inside the sleeve, in the material constituting the central tube of this sleeve.
  • This type of sleeve holding system raises problems of manufacturing tolerances and compels the manufacturer to accurately dimension the various component parts.

  • the stock 500 comprises a chamber 515 opening into the concavity of L.
  • This chamber 515 is open over the entire length of the butt 510 to allow the introduction, in the concavity of the L, of the bent portion 180 of the wire frame 100.
  • An alternative embodiment of the present invention relates to a butt 510 which has an opening along the convexity of the chamber 515 and thus allows the introduction, in the convexity of the L, of the bent portion 180 of the wire frame 100.
  • the butt 510 engages, at the aforementioned bend 180, by lateral sliding along the chamber 515 and, at the end of sliding, by snapping onto the frame 100.

  • the sections 553 and 563 of the chamber 515 each have, respectively, a pair of ratchet teeth 554 and 564, the elements of each pair 554 and 564 being positioned face to face .
  • the stock 510 thus made integral with the wire frame 100 is represented on the figure 1 .
  • the activatable / deactivatable retaining means 520 of the sleeve and the actuating means 530 will now be described with reference, mainly, to the figure 3 .
  • These two means 520 and 530 are in the form of at least one pallet 580, semi-rigid, articulated by a hinge 540 fixed on one of the outer faces of the branch 560 of the stick 510 directed along the wire axis 150.
  • the pallet 580 parallel to the wire axis 150, comprises the retaining means 520 on one of its ends and the actuating means 530 on the opposite end.
  • the hinge 540 in contact with the face 581 of the pallet 580 turned to the stick 510 is located in the intermediate position of the two elements 520 and 530.
  • the figure 3 illustrates an example, not limiting, of the locking / unlocking device 500 according to the invention comprising two pallets 580, each disposed on one of the outer faces of the branch 560 of the stock 510 parallel to the wire axis 150, but a single paddle 580 is sufficient to effectively lock the paint application sleeve 200 on the mount 100.
  • the retaining means 520 of a pallet 580 located on the end of the pallet 580 near the sleeve 200 consist of at least one hook 520 which has an external retaining appendix 522.
  • the hook 520 extends, towards the bend 180, by a biasing surface 530 constituting the actuating means 530.

  • This support is conventionally done by finger pressure.
  • the hook 520 resumes, then, its initial position and is placed in the groove 450, the steep face 521 of the appendix 522 in contact with the shoulder 441, thus trapping the shoulder 441 of the cylinder 440 associated with the flange 400 and, therefore, the paint application sleeve 200.
  • the sleeve assembly 200 more flaccid (300,400) remains free of rotation on the wired axis 150.
  • An alternative embodiment of the present invention is to engage the sleeve 200 on the wire axis 150 until the shoulder 441 comes into contact with the outer face 523 of the appendix 522 of a hook 520.
  • the outer face 523 of the appendix 522 cooperates with the leave 442 to push back the hook 520 spaced diametral with respect to the wire axis 150 and the flange 400 then comes to rest on the end 561 of the branch 560 of the stick 510 directed along the wire axis 150.
  • the hook 520 then resumes its initial position and is placed, as described above, in the groove 450 trapping the paint application sleeve 200.

  • the shape, the nature, the number, the orientation of the activatable / deactivatable retaining means 520 and the actuating means 530 can be the subject of numerous variant embodiments in accordance with the spirit of the invention. They should not be limited to the illustrations made in the appended figures.
  • an alternative embodiment of the present invention provides the arrangement of the hinged pallet provided with retaining means 520 and actuating means 530 on the sleeve 200 and the support means 441 with or without leave 442 on Exhibit 500.
  • the painter has a locking / unlocking device 500 of a paint application sleeve 200 that can be used simply, reliably and efficiently.
  • the locking / unlocking device 500 allows increased comfort of use. Indeed, any sleeve 200 impregnated with paint may be ejected out of the mount 100, automatically, according to a clean maneuver, by a simple effort on the fins 530 of the device 500, without the user being obliged to touch a part of the sleeve 200 itself.
  • the locking / unlocking system 500 finally offers the advantage of being able to lock sleeves 200 of different diameter and / or length on the wire frame 100 provided that they have the support means 441 or the means retaining 520 and actuating 530.
