Description

La présente invention concerne un cercueil pliable en carton, bois ou tout autre matériau analogue, permettant une insertion latérale du corps du défunt.The present invention relates to a foldable casket of cardboard, wood or any other similar material, allowing lateral insertion of the body of the deceased.

L'art antérieur propose déjà des cercueils pliables, présentant généralement un couvercle indépendant du corps du cercueil. Ainsi, le brevet US 5 035 032 décrit un cercueil pliable constitué de deux parties distinctes, le corps du cercueil et son couvercle réalisés chacun par pliage d'une planche différente.The prior art already offers foldable coffins, generally having a lid independent of the body of the coffin. Thus, the patent US 5,035,032 describes a collapsible casket consisting of two distinct parts, the body of the coffin and its cover each made by folding a different board.

Ce type de cercueil présente l'inconvénient tant au niveau de la fabrication, que du stockage ou de la livraison, notamment par un encombrement plus important et un montage plus long, nécessitant par ailleurs l'utilisation d'un outillage spécifique.This type of coffin has the disadvantage both in terms of manufacture, storage or delivery, including a larger footprint and a longer assembly, also requiring the use of specific tools.

Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, certains cercueils présentent un couvercle faisant partie intégrante du corps du cercueil.To remedy these disadvantages, some coffins have a lid forming an integral part of the body of the coffin.

Ainsi le brevet EP 0 680 308 décrit un cercueil pliable réalisé d'un seul tenant dans une plaque de matière cellulosique. Le couvercle est réalisé par pliage de certains des panneaux de la plaque, de manière à ce que le couvercle soit la dernière partie du cercueil à être repliée.So the patent EP 0 680 308 describes a collapsible casket made in one piece in a plate of cellulosic material. The lid is made by folding some of the panels of the plate, so that the lid is the last part of the casket to be folded.

Cependant, ce type de cercueil nécessite l'insertion du corps défunt par le dessus du cercueil, constituant une opération nécessitant l'intervention de plusieurs personnes mais restant périlleuse et peu pratique.However, this type of casket requires the insertion of the deceased body by the top of the coffin, constituting an operation requiring the intervention of several people but remaining dangerous and impractical.

L'invention selon la revendication indépendante se propose de remédier aux divers inconvénients de l'art antérieur en proposant un cercueil pliable, réalisé d'un seul tenant, c'est-à-dire corps et couvercle directement liés, sans pièce rapportée, en un matériau rigide du type carton, bois ou tout autre matériau analogue, permettant une insertion facile du corps du défunt, tout en présentant un faible encombrement, un transport facile et un montage rapide et simple, sans outillage particulier.The invention according to the independent claim proposes to remedy the various disadvantages of the prior art by proposing a collapsible casket, made in one piece, that is to say directly attached body and cover, without insert, in a rigid material such as cardboard, wood or any other similar material, allowing easy insertion of the body of the deceased, while having a small footprint, easy transport and a quick and simple assembly without special tools.

A cet effet, la présente invention a pour objet un cercueil pliable découpé dans une plaque d'un matériau rigide, du type carton ou bois, caractérisé en ce que le fond, le couvercle et au moins deux des quatre côtés dudit cercueil sont réalisés d'un seul tenant, et en ce que la fermeture du cercueil est réalisée par pliage d'un des côtés dudit cercueil.For this purpose, the present invention relates to a collapsible casket cut from a plate of a rigid material, of the carton or wood type, characterized in that the bottom, the lid and at least two of the four sides of said coffin are made in one piece, and in that the closure of the coffin is made by folding one side of said coffin.

Le cercueil selon l'invention est réalisé par découpage puis pliage d'une planche réalisée en un matériau rigide. Cette planche comprend à la fois le fond, le couvercle et au moins deux des côtés du cercueil, de manière à ce que ces différents éléments du cercueil soient directement liés entre eux.The coffin according to the invention is made by cutting and folding a board made of a rigid material. This board includes both the bottom, the lid and at least two sides of the coffin, so that these different elements of the coffin are directly related to each other.

Une cuve de rétention est insérée par l'un des côtés du cercueil lors de son pliage de manière à faciliter l'insertion du corps et pour éviter l'écoulement des fluides corporels directement dans le cercueil. Cette cuve est insérée sans le corps dans le cercueil, après repliement de ses deux côtés transversaux. Le corps défunt est ensuite disposé dans la cuve, puis les deux côtés latéraux sont repliés.A holding tank is inserted through one side of the casket as it is folded to facilitate insertion of the body and to prevent the flow of body fluids directly into the casket. This tank is inserted without the body in the coffin, after folding of its two transverse sides. The dead body is then placed in the tank, then the two lateral sides are folded.

Quel que soit le type de réalisation du cercueil 1, celui-ci est réalisé à partir d'au moins une planche 1 qui comprend au moins le fond 2 du cercueil sur lequel repose le corps du défunt dans la cuve de rétention 6, le couvercle 5 ainsi qu'au moins deux des quatre côtés 3 ou 4 du cercueil 1, de façon à ce que ces différents éléments du cercueil puissent s'imbriquer les uns dans les autres sans autre moyen de fixation.Whatever the type of embodiment of the coffin 1, it is made from at least one board 1 which comprises at least the bottom 2 of the coffin on which the body of the deceased in the holding tank 6, the lid 5 and at least two of the four sides 3 or 4 of the coffin 1, so that these different elements of the coffin can nest into each other without other means of attachment.

Selon la première variante de réalisation de l'invention représentées aux figures 1a jusque 1g, le cercueil 1 comporte un fond 2 lié à un couvercle 5 par l'intermédiaire de deux côtés transversaux 3. Ces différentes parties du cercueil sont réalisées par découpage puis pliage d'une planche unique.According to the first variant embodiment of the invention shown in figures 1a up to 1g, the coffin 1 comprises a bottom 2 linked to a cover 5 via two transverse sides 3. These different parts of the coffin are made by cutting and folding a single board.

La planche 1 présente des côtés transversaux 3. L'un de ces côtés est disposé entre le fond 2 et le couvercle 5 de manière à relier ces deux éléments du cercueil entre eux. L'extrémité du fond 2 et du couvercle 5 présentent également chacun un côté transversal 3 qui vont venir se superposer lors du montage afin d'augmenter la rigidité de l'ensemble.The board 1 has transverse sides 3. One of these sides is disposed between the bottom 2 and the cover 5 so as to connect these two elements of the coffin between them. The end of the bottom 2 and the cover 5 also each have a transverse side 3 which will be superimposed during assembly to increase the rigidity of the assembly.

Le côté transversal 3 entre le fond 2 et le couvercle 5, ainsi qu'un des deux côtés à l'extrémité du fond 2 ou du couvercle 5, présentent des renforcements 3a destinés à maintenir les côtés longitudinaux 4 et à renforcer le cercueil, notamment lors de sa fermeture, et lui permettre de supporter des poids importants.The transverse side 3 between the bottom 2 and the cover 5, as well as one of the two sides at the end of the bottom 2 or the cover 5, have reinforcements 3a intended to hold the longitudinal sides 4 and to reinforce the coffin, in particular when it is closed, and allow it to withstand significant weight.

Le fond 2 et le couvercle 5 présentent chacun deux côtés longitudinaux 4. Lors du montage, ces côtés vont venir se superposer et augmenter ainsi la rigidité du cercueil 1. Ces côtés longitudinaux 4 présentent des renforcements longitudinaux 4a qui vont se plier lors du montage du cercueil et sont destinés à leur insertion avec les différents éléments du cercueil. 1.The bottom 2 and the cover 5 each have two longitudinal sides 4. During assembly, these sides will be superimposed and thus increase the rigidity of the coffin 1. These longitudinal sides 4 have longitudinal reinforcements 4a which will bend during assembly of the coffin and are intended for their insertion with the different elements of the coffin. 1.

Deux de ces renforcements longitudinaux 4a, soit au niveau du fond 2 soit au niveau du couvercle 5, présentent une languette 4b qui permet d'ouvrir le cercueil une fois qu'il est fermé.Two of these longitudinal reinforcements 4a, either at the bottom 2 or at the cover 5, have a tab 4b which opens the coffin once it is closed.

Des emplacements peuvent être ménagés par découpe sur les côtés longitudinaux 4, servant de poignées, facilitant ainsi le transport du cercueil.Locations can be cut by cutting on the longitudinal sides 4, as handles, thus facilitating the transport of the casket.

Le montage du cercueil est réalisé de la manière suivante. La planche 1 est pliée de façon à ce que le couvercle 5 surmonte le fond 2 par l'intermédiaire des deux côtés transversaux 3. Si un côté transversal 3 supplémentaire est ajouté sur la planche 1, il vient se superposer. La cuve de rétention 6 est glissée par l'un des côtés 3 ou 4 du cercueil, après repliement des côtés transversaux de la cuve. Le corps est ensuite disposé dans la cuve 6, et ses côtés longitudinaux sont alors repliés. La variante de la figure 1 permet une insertion latérale longitudinale de la cuve de rétention 6.The coffin is assembled in the following manner. The board 1 is folded so that the cover 5 overcomes the bottom 2 by means of the two transverse sides 3. If an additional transverse side 3 is added to the board 1, it is superimposed. The holding tank 6 is slid by one of the sides 3 or 4 of the coffin, after folding of the transverse sides of the tank. The body is then placed in the tank 6, and its longitudinal sides are then folded. The variant of the figure 1 allows a longitudinal lateral insertion of the holding tank 6.

Les renforcements 3a sont ensuite repliés au niveau des côtés longitudinaux 4a. Les renforcements 4a sont également pliés. Les côtés longitudinaux 4 liés directement au couvercle 5 sont repliés de manière à réaliser une première fermeture du cercueil 1. Les autres côtés longitudinaux 4 liés au fond 2 du cercueil 1 sont ensuite repliés de manière à renforcer la fermeture du cercueil 1. Lors du repliement de ces derniers côtés longitudinaux, les languettes 4b sont extraites des renforcements 4a.The reinforcements 3a are then folded at the longitudinal sides 4a. The reinforcements 4a are also folded. The longitudinal sides 4 directly connected to the cover 5 are folded so as to make a first closure of the coffin 1. The other longitudinal sides 4 connected to the bottom 2 of the coffin 1 are then folded so as to reinforce the closure of the coffin 1. When folding of these last longitudinal sides, the tongues 4b are extracted from the reinforcements 4a.

Il est clair à la lumière de la description que la planche 1 constituant les principaux éléments du cercueil peut présenter une forme ou une disposition des renforcements différentes.It is clear from the light of the description that the board 1 constituting the main elements of the coffin may have a different form or arrangement of reinforcements.

Selon la seconde variante non revendiquée de réalisation du cercueil 1, représentée aux figures 2a, 2b et 2c, le cercueil 1 a une forme plus complexe. Le fond 2, le couvercle 5 et deux des côtés, transversaux 3 pour la figure 2ba, et longitudinaux 4 pour la figure 2c, sont réalisés d'un seul tenant. Les côtés manquants, à savoir longitudinaux 4 pour la figure 2b et transversaux pour la figure2c, sont ensuite ajoutés afin de fermer le cercueil, après insertion de la cuve de rétention (non représentée).According to the second unclaimed variant embodiment of casket 1, shown in FIGS. Figures 2a, 2b and 2c , coffin 1 has a more complex form. The bottom 2, the cover 5 and two of the sides, transverse 3 for the figure 2ba , and longitudinal 4 for the Figure 2c , are made in one piece. Missing sides, namely longitudinal 4 for the figure 2b and transversal for the figure2c , are then added in order to close the coffin, after insertion of the holding tank (not shown).

Les côtés manquants 3 ou 4 présentent un angle de manière à ce que le cercueil 1 ait une forme hexagonale.The missing sides 3 or 4 have an angle so that the coffin 1 has a hexagonal shape.

Selon la troisième variante de réalisation (non renvendiquée) représentée sur les figures 3, le cercueil 1 a une forme parallélépipédique.According to the third embodiment variant (not shown) represented on the figures 3 , coffin 1 has a parallelepiped shape.

La quatrième variant (non renvendiquée) représente un cercueil 1 sous forme d'un tombeau.The fourth variant (not referred) represents a coffin 1 in the form of a tomb.

Les figures 5 représentent la cinquième variante de réalisation dans laquelle le cercueil a une forme de décaèdre.The figures 5 represent the fifth embodiment in which the coffin has a decahedral shape.

Dans ces différentes variantes, les côtés destinés à la fermeture du cercueil, à savoir des côtés transversaux 3 ou des côtés longitudinaux 4, peuvent être réalisés en un bloc, comme c'est le cas pour la troisième variante (figures 3a, 3b), en deux parties (figure 4b), en trois parties (figure 4c), en quatre parties (figure 5b), ou en six parties (figure 5c).In these different variants, the sides intended for closing the coffin, namely transverse sides 3 or longitudinal sides 4, can be made in a block, as is the case for the third variant ( Figures 3a, 3b ), in two parts ( figure 4b ), in three parties ( figure 4c ), in four parts ( figure 5b ), or in six parts ( figure 5c ).

Les côtés transversaux 3 ou longitudinaux 4, lors de la fermeture du cercueil, sont fixés au niveau du fond 2 et/ou du couvercle 5 du cercueil. Cette fixation peut être réalisée par de la colle, des clous, des vis ou autre dispositif approprié.The transverse sides 3 or longitudinal 4, when closing the coffin, are fixed at the bottom 2 and / or the cover 5 of the coffin. This attachment can be made by glue, nails, screws or other suitable device.

La cuve de rétention 6 est également réalisée à partir d'une planche en matériau rigide dont chaque côté peut être replié de manière à former un bac qui pourra contenir l'écoulement des fluides corporels.The holding tank 6 is also made from a board of rigid material, each side of which can be folded so as to form a tray which can contain the flow of body fluids.

On comprend à la lumière de la description que le fond 2 et le couvercle 5 du cercueil 1 sont réalisés d'un seul tenant. L'insertion du corps se fait préférentiellement par l'un des côtés transversaux 3, mais on ne sort pas du cadre de l'invention en réalisant cette insertion par l'un des côtés longitudinaux 4.It is understood from the description that the bottom 2 and the lid 5 of the coffin 1 are made in one piece. The insertion of the body is preferably done by one of the transverse sides 3, but it is not beyond the scope of the invention to achieve this insertion by one of the longitudinal sides 4.

Le cercueil selon l'invention est réalisé à partir d'un matériau suffisamment rigide pour supporter le poids d'un corps lors du soulèvement du cercueil. Ce matériau peut être du bois ou du carton. Par ailleurs, la qualité du matériau du cercueil peut varier en fonction de la destination du cercueil, à savoir l'incinération ou l'inhumation.The coffin according to the invention is made from a material sufficiently rigid to support the weight of a body during the lifting of the coffin. This material may be wood or cardboard. In addition, the quality of the casket material may vary depending on the destination of the coffin, namely incineration or burial.

Différentes formes de cercueil ont été décrites, mais l'invention ne se limite pas à ce type de formes.Different forms of coffin have been described, but the invention is not limited to this type of forms.
