Description

L'objet de l'invention a trait à une pince, de celles qui sont employées, par exemple, dans la plomberie. Une pince selon la préambule de la revendication 1 est décrit dans le brevet DE 199 24 664 .The object of the invention relates to a pliers, those used, for example, in plumbing. A clip according to the preamble of claim 1 is described in the patent DE 199 24 664 .

Dans l'état actuel de la technique, on connaît déjà ce type de pince. On connaît même des pinces réglables constituées par deux bras qui sont assemblés entre eux au moyen d'un boulon d'articulation et où l'un des bras est réglable de façon échelonnée dans une fenêtre fendue de l'autre bras, afin de faire varier la taille de l'ouverture de la pince.In the current state of the art, this type of clamp is already known. There are even known adjustable clamps consisting of two arms which are joined together by means of a hinge bolt and where one of the arms is steplessly adjustable in a split window of the other arm, in order to vary the size of the opening of the clamp.

A partir de ce besoin de faire varier la taille de l'ouverture de la pince, on a mis au point des pinces ayant un mécanisme de grandes fiabilité, solidité et facilité de maniement, permettant de passer rapidement d'une position de travail (dans laquelle les mors de la pince maintiennent un écart constant entre eux, tandis que les bras/mors tournent mutuellement pour s'ouvrir/se fermer) à une position de régulation (dans laquelle un bras se déplace linéairement par rapport à l'autre dans la fenêtre fendue).From this need to vary the size of the opening of the clamp, it has developed clamps having a mechanism of great reliability, strength and ease of handling, to quickly move from a working position (in the jaws of the gripper maintain a constant gap between them, while the arms / jaws rotate mutually to open / close) at a control position (in which one arm moves linearly relative to the other in the split window).

Les problèmes non résolus dans l'état actuel de la technique dérivent essentiellement de :

  • la voluminosité (dispositifs excessivement grands et qui dépassent latéralement de la pince, en limitant ses lieux d'application).
  • la fragilité et la complexité de la construction (plusieurs de ses composants, généralement de petites pièces, sont exposés aux coups et à la crasse, qui les déteriorent et arrivent même à mettre la pince hors d'état de fonctionner dans un court laps de temps, notamment si le ressort actionneur est visible).
  • Le boulon ou axe d'articulation est d'ordinaire un bloc en matériau résistant à l'usure, tel que l'alliage d'acier ou l'acier traité thermiquement, ce qui augmente le coût du produit.
The unsolved problems in the current state of the art derive essentially from:
  • bulkyness (devices that are excessively large and protrude laterally from the forceps, limiting its application places).
  • the fragility and complexity of construction (many of its components, usually small parts, are exposed to blows and grime, which deteriorate and even come to put the clamp out of state to operate in a short period of time, especially if the actuator spring is visible).
  • The bolt or hinge pin is usually a block of wear resistant material, such as steel alloy or heat-treated steel, which increases the cost of the product.

La pince qui fait l'objet de l'invention résout ces problèmes, en introduisant dans l'articulation, entre les bras, un petit mécanisme, robuste et fiable, dont les composants (essentiellement l'axe d'action) ne sont pas visibles et ne sont pas exposés à l'extérieur de la pince, ledit mécanisme:

  • Étant monté sans faire saillie par rapport, au moins, à un plan latéral de la pince, pour ne pas en limiter les possibilités d'utilisation ni la fonctionnalité opérationnelle.
  • Il décompose le boulon en composants, les composants qui peuvent s'user étant d'un matériau résistant à l'usure, par exemple, la douille, et ceux qui s'usent moins ou pas du tout, par exemple, le poussoir, d'un matériau quelconque (bon marché).
  • Le ressort d'actionnement n'est pas fixé à la pince, aussi ne dépend-il pas d'éléments de fixation, par exemple, des vis qui se desserrent ou s'enlèvent.
The clamp which is the subject of the invention solves these problems, by introducing into the articulation, between the arms, a small mechanism, robust and reliable, whose components (essentially the axis of action) are not visible and are not exposed outside the clamp, said mechanism:
  • Being mounted without protruding relative to at least one side plane of the clamp, to not limit the possibilities of use or operational functionality.
  • It breaks down the bolt into components, the components that can wear out being of a wear-resistant material, for example, the bushing, and those that wear out less or not at all, for example, the pusher, any material (cheap).
  • The actuating spring is not attached to the clamp, so it does not depend on fasteners, for example, screws that loosen or come off.

Ce mécanisme a une action simple: en poussant axialement un poussoir, il désengrène l'ergot denté, en permettant le déplacement de l'axe dans la fenêtre fendue, afin de réguler la taille de l'ouverture, alors que le retour à la position de travail est automatique, lorsqu'on cesse d'appuyer sur le poussoir, en raison de l'action axiale d'un ressort interne.This mechanism has a simple action: by pushing a pusher axially, it disengages the toothed lug, allowing the displacement of the axis in the split window, in order to regulate the size of the opening, while the return to the position when the push button is stopped, due to the axial action of an internal spring.

La pince selon l'invention, de celles qui se composent de deux bras, l'un mâle et l'autre femelle, qui sont assemblés entre eux par un axe d'articulation, et où le bras femelle est réglable de façon échelonnée dans une fenêtre fendue permettant de faire varier la taille de l'ouverture de la pince, définit un premier orifice et un second orifice coaxiaux sur le bras femelle, dans lesquels est monté l'axe d'articulation, qui comporte un ergot denté qui peut s'engrener ou pas sur une denture définie dans la fenêtre fendue du bras mâle ; se caractérisant par le fait que :

  • Le bras femelle comporte une protubérance où a été pratiquée une mortaise latérale qui se prolonge par le second orifice, un poussoir qui dispose d'une mortaise intérieure où se trouve un ressort qui agit entre le poussoir et le bras femelle étant placé dans cette mortaise.
  • L'axe d'articulation est assemblé par vissage au poussoir dans la zone de la mortaise latérale; un ergot denté et une douille en matériau résistant à l'usure, qui se trouve dans les parois du second orifice dans la position de travail, étant disposés coaxialement entre eux et ayant une continuité mécanique.
The clamp according to the invention, of those which consist of two arms, one male and the other female, which are assembled together by a hinge pin, and wherein the female arm is adjustable in a staggered manner in a split window for varying the size of the opening of the clamp, defines a first port and a second coaxial orifice on the female arm, in which is mounted the hinge axis, which comprises a toothed lug which can s' mesh or not on a set of teeth defined in the split window of the male arm; characterized by the fact that:
  • The female arm has a protuberance where has been practiced a lateral mortise which is extended by the second orifice, a pusher which has an inner mortise which is a spring which acts between the pusher and the female arm being placed in this mortise.
  • The hinge pin is assembled by screwing to the pusher in the zone of the lateral mortise; a toothed lug and a sleeve of wear-resistant material, which is located in the walls of the second orifice in the working position, being arranged coaxially with one another and having a mechanical continuity.

L'orifice du bras femelle définit un siège dans lequel prend appui, en position de travail, un bossage conjugué de l'axe de rotation, sans faire saillie par rapport à la face latérale du bras femelle, grâce à quoi la fonctionnalité de l'outil n'est pas limité ni ses possibilités d'application.The orifice of the female arm defines a seat in which is supported, in the working position, a conjugate boss of the axis of rotation, without protruding from the side face of the female arm, whereby the functionality of the tool is not limited nor its application possibilities.

Notamment, les orifices du bras femelle qui, en position de travail, reçoivent respectivement la tête de l'axe de rotation et la douille et, en position de régulation, reçoivent respectivement l'ergot denté et l'extrémité du poussoir, ont des diamètres différents; Ø1 > Ø2, ce qui permet de réduire la taille du poussoir et, en général, le volume de l'assemblage.In particular, the orifices of the female arm which, in working position, respectively receive the head of the axis of rotation and the sleeve and, in the regulation position, respectively receive the pin toothed and the end of the pusher, have different diameters; Ø 1 > Ø 2 , which reduces the size of the pusher and, in general, the volume of the assembly.

Pour mieux comprendre l'objet de la présente invention, on représente sur les plans une forme préférentielle de réalisation pratique, susceptible de changements accessoires, qui n'en dénaturent pas le fondement.

On décrit ci-dessous un exemple de réalisation pratique, non limitative, de la présente invention.An exemplary practical, non-limiting embodiment of the present invention is described below.

L'objet de l'invention a trait à une pince, de celles qui sont consituées de deux bras, un mâle (10) et l'autre femelle (20), qui portent les mors respectifs de la pince, ces bras (10), (20) étant assemblés entre eux au moyen d'un axe d'articulation (2) qui, constituant l'axe de rotation du bras femelle (20), est multi-positionnable de façon échelonnée dans une fenêtre fendue (V) du bras mâle (10), afin de faire varier la taille de l'ouverture de la pince.The object of the invention relates to a clamp, those which are constituted by two arms, a male (10) and the other female (20), which carry the respective jaws of the clamp, these arms (10). , (20) being assembled together by means of a hinge pin (2) which, constituting the axis of rotation of the female arm (20), is multi-positionable staggered in a split window (V) of the male arm (10), to vary the size of the opening of the clamp.

Comme on le sait, le bras femelle (20) définit un premier orifice (O1) et un second orifice (O2) coaxiaux, dans lesquels est monté l'axe d'articulation (2) qui comprote un ergot denté (1) qui peut s'engrener ou pas dans une denture (101) définie dans la fenêtre fendue (V) du bras mâle (10);As is known, the female arm (20) defines a first orifice (O 1 ) and a second orifice (O 2 ) coaxial, in which is mounted the hinge axis (2) which comprotes a toothed lug (1) which may or may not mesh with a toothing (101) defined in the split window (V) of the male arm (10);

Conformément à l'invention et selon la réalisation représentée :

  • Le bras femelle (20) comporte une protubérance latérale (P) dans laquelle on a pratiqué une mortaise latérale (6), coaxiale avec les deux orifices (O1), (O2) du bras femelle (20).
According to the invention and according to the embodiment shown:
  • The female arm (20) has a lateral protuberance (P) in which a lateral mortise (6) has been made, coaxial with the two orifices (O 1 ), (O 2 ) of the female arm (20).

L'axe d'articulation (2) définit à une extrémité une tête (C), avec un bossage périmétral (22) et un siège interne (21) et, à l'autre extrémité, une zone filetée (23). De préférence, le bossage (22), le siège (21) et la zone filetée (23) ont successivement un diamètre moindre: le bossage (22) a un diamètre supérieur à celui du siège (21) ; les deux ont un diamètre supérieur à celui de la zone cnetrale de l'axe (2) et ils ont tous un diamètre supérieur à celui de la zone extrême filetée (23) -quoique cette géométrique ne soit pas limitative et que son altération ne dénature pas l'essence de l'invention-.The hinge pin (2) defines at one end a head (C), with a perimeter boss (22) and an inner seat (21) and, at the other end, a threaded zone (23). Preferably, the boss (22), the seat (21) and the threaded zone (23) successively have a smaller diameter: the boss (22) has a diameter greater than that of the seat (21); both have a diameter greater than that of the central zone of the axis (2) and they all have a diameter greater than that of the end threaded zone (23) -which this geometry is not limiting and that its alteration does not denature not the essence of the invention-.

On dispose un ergot denté (1) dans la zone centrale de l'axe (2) qui vient buter latéralement contre le siège (21). Ledit ergot denté (1) forme des dents extérieures (11), susceptibles d'engrener ou pas dans des dents conjuguées (101) prévues dans la fenêtre fendue (V) du bras mâle (10).There is a toothed lug (1) in the central region of the shaft (2) which abuts laterally against the seat (21). Said toothed lug (1) forms external teeth (11), which may or may not mesh with each other in conjugate teeth (101) provided in the slotted window (V) of the male arm (10).

On dispose une douille (3) dans la zone centrale de l'axe (2) qui vient buter latéralement contre ledit ergot denté (1).There is a bushing (3) in the central zone of the axis (2) which abuts laterally against said toothed lug (1).

L'ergot denté (1) et la douille (3) sont d'un matériau résistant à l'usure.The toothed lug (1) and the bushing (3) are of a wear resistant material.

On dispose un poussoir (5) fileté dans la zone extrême (23) de l'axe (2), qui vient buter latéralement contre ladite douille (3). Ce poussoir (5) définit coaxialement une mortaise intérieure (51).There is a threaded pusher (5) in the end zone (23) of the axis (2), which abuts laterally against said sleeve (3). This pusher (5) coaxially defines an inner mortise (51).

On dispose un ressort interne (4) qui agit entre le poussoir (5) et le bras femelle (20) logé coaxialement dans ces mortaises (6), (51) et agissant à l'opposite contre leurs bases, tend à écarter le poussoir (5) du bras femelle (20) et, en conséquence, tend à maintenir l'axe (2) dans une position extrême dans laquelle l'ergot denté (1) maintient ses dents (11) engrenés dans les dents conjuguées (101) prévues dans la fenêtre fendue (V) du bras mâle (10).It has an internal spring (4) which acts between the pusher (5) and the female arm (20) housed coaxially in these mortises (6), (51) and acting opposite against their bases, tends to spread the pusher (5) of the female arm (20) and, consequently, tends to maintain the axis (2) in an extreme position in which the toothed lug (1) maintains its teeth (11) meshing in the conjugate teeth (101) provided in the split window (V) of the male arm (10).

Les orifices (O1), (O2) du bras femelle (20) ont des diamètres différents et sont, respectivement, conjugués de l'axe (2) dans sa zone du siège (21) et de la douille (3). En particulier, le diamètre du premier orifice (O1) est supérieur au diamètre du second orifice (O2).The orifices (O 1 ), (O 2 ) of the female arm (20) have different diameters and are, respectively, conjugate of the axis (2) in its seat area (21) and the sleeve (3). In particular, the diameter of the first orifice (O 1 ) is greater than the diameter of the second orifice (O 2 ).

Avec cette structure et ce montage, une simple pression manuelle sur le poussoir (5) comprime le ressort (4) et déplace l'axe (2) en même temps que l'ergot denté (1) et la douille (3) montés sur lui, jusqu'à ce que les dents (11) de l'ergot denté (1) se libèrent des dents (101) du bras mâle (10). Tant que le poussoir (5) est maintenu pressé, la douille (3) se maintient en face des dents (101) et cette douille (3) peut se dépalcer librement dans la fenêtre (V) en même temps que l'axe (2) et le bras femelle (20), afin de faire varier la taille de l'ouverture de la pince.With this structure and this assembly, a simple manual pressure on the pusher (5) compresses the spring (4) and moves the shaft (2) at the same time as the toothed pin (1) and the sleeve (3) mounted on he, until the teeth (11) of the toothed lug (1) are released from the teeth (101) of the male arm (10). As long as the pusher (5) is kept pressed, the sleeve (3) is held in front of the teeth (101) and this sleeve (3) can freely move in the window (V) along with the axis (2) and the female arm (20), to vary the size of the opening of the clamp.
