Description

SUPPORT SECURISE POUR MATELAS A LANGER SECURE SUPPORT FOR CHANGING MATTRESS
La présente invention concerne un support sécurisé pour matelas à langer et plus généralement un support pour matelas à langer pouvant être utilisé en puériculture comme dans le domaine vétérinaire.The present invention relates to a secure support for changing mat and more generally a support for changing mat can be used in childcare as in the veterinary field.
Plusieurs types de support ou meubles à langer sont actuellement connus sur le marché. On peut citer par exemple, le matelas à langer posé sur une commode ou la table à langer traditionnelle qui est dotée d'une baignoire et posée sur un pied. Ces dispositifs n'offrent aucune protection par rapport au risque de chute de l'enfant qui peut se déplacer vers les bords de la table, ou du support de matelas et tomber.Several types of support or changing furniture are currently known on the market. For example, the changing mat on a dresser or the traditional changing table that has a bath and placed on a foot. These devices offer no protection against the risk of falling from the child who can move to the edges of the table, or the mattress support and fall.
Le brevet WO 97/39661 propose une table à langer dite de sécurité qui présente deux cadres rigides inférieur et supérieur, espacés par des croisillons, et dont le cadre supérieur, qui peut être escamoté vers le bas, constitue une ceinture de sécurité. Ce dispositif comporte un défaut majeur qui réside en ce que l'ensemble tel qu'il est conçu ne constitue pas une protection efficace à cause du manque de rigidité de la barrière de sécurité par rapport à la base de la table.Patent WO 97/39661 proposes a so-called safety changing table which has two rigid lower and upper frames, spaced by braces, and whose upper frame, which can be retracted downwards, is a seat belt. This device has a major flaw that is that the assembly as designed is not an effective protection because of the lack of rigidity of the safety barrier relative to the base of the table.
Les brevets FR 2 803 733 et FR 2 732 570 proposent des dispositifs de table à langer munis de parois latérales et arrière repliables qui présentent l'inconvénient de laisser toujours libre le bord antérieur de la table à langer ce qui n'empêche pas une chute éventuelle du bébé à partir de ce côté. De plus, de tels dispositifs sont peu commodes d'utilisation du fait des différentes opérations à pratiquer pour replier les parois.Patents FR 2 803 733 and FR 2 732 570 propose changing table devices with folding side and rear walls which have the disadvantage of always leaving free the front edge of the changing table which does not prevent a fall possible baby from this side. In addition, such devices are inconvenient to use because of the different operations to practice to fold the walls.
Dans le brevet FR 2 841 113, on a proposé un dispositif de protection antichute comprenant un support et une ceinture périphérique de sécurité reliée, à l'une de ses extrémités, de manière rigide et articulée au support grâce à un arceau rigide reliant l'extrémité du support à ladite ceinture, sur lequel viennent pivoter des bagues solidaires de la ceinture périphérique de sécurité, l'autre extrémité de la ceinture étant reliée à un dispositif de commande permettant le déplacement vers le bas de l'extrémité de ladite ceinture et sa remontée automatique. Le dispositif de commande permettant le déplacement vers le bas de ladite ceinture de sécurité, et donc la libération de la face avant, est actionné dans un mode manuel par un levier et le retour en position active de sécurité s'effectue automatiquement à l'aide d'au moins un ressort mécanique ou à gaz positionné entre le support et un berceau articulé au support. Le ressort à gaz permet, notamment de maîtriser le mouvement de relevage de la ceinture de sécurité.In patent FR 2 841 113, there is provided a fall protection device comprising a support and a peripheral safety belt connected at one of its ends, rigidly and articulated to the support by means of a rigid hoop connecting the end of the support to said belt, on which are rotated rings integral with the peripheral safety belt, the other end of the belt being connected to a control device for moving down the end of said belt and its automatic lift. The control device allowing the downward movement of said safety belt, and thus the release of the front face, is actuated in a manual mode by a lever and the return to the active safety position is performed automatically using at least one spring mechanical or gas positioned between the support and a cradle hinged to the support. The gas spring allows, in particular to control the lifting movement of the seat belt.
Le dispositif proposé fournit bien un dispositif de protection efficace contre les chutes en particulier en permettant le blocage de la face avant du support à langer, mais est néanmoins peu aisé et onéreux dans sa mise en œuvre notamment du fait de l'utilisation d'un dispositif de mouvement complexe. D'autre part, la disposition des ressorts est telle qu'il existe un risque que, lors de l'abaissement de la ceinture de sécurité, l'enfant se pince ou se blesse.The proposed device provides an effective protection against falls especially by allowing the blocking of the front face of the support to change, but is nevertheless not easy and expensive in its implementation in particular because of the use of a complex motion device. On the other hand, the arrangement of the springs is such that there is a risk that, during the lowering of the seat belt, the child pinches or injures himself.
On a proposé également dans le document FR 2 772 577 un dispositif garde-corps pour enfant en bas âge comprenant un cadre supérieur et un cadre inférieur, le cadre supérieur étant mobile par rapport audit cadre inférieur selon un mouvement essentiellement rotatif autour d'un axe passant par l'une desdites parois dite paroi de rotation. Le cadre peut donc prendre deux positions stables une de soin où la paroi opposée à la paroi de rotation dite paroi d'accès est rétractée, la portion dudit cadre supérieur correspondant à ladite paroi d'accès étant amenée au voisinage de la portion correspondante dudit cadre inférieur de façon à faciliter les manipulations et une de sécurité où ladite paroi d'accès est déployée et présente une surface similaire à la paroi de rotation. Ainsi, deux tiges ménagées au niveau de la paroi dite de rotation maintiennent le cadre supérieur écarté du cadre inférieur tandis qu'un élément de maintien engagé à coulissement dans un coulisseau joue le même rôle côté paroi de sécurité. En position de sécurité, le cadre supérieur est donc maintenu écarté du cadre inférieur par les tiges et l'élément de maintien verrouillé dans le coulisseau. Pour passer en position de soin, on déverrouille l'élément de maintien dans le coulisseau de sorte qu'on peut abaisser la partie avant du cadre supérieur vers la partie avant du cadre inférieur, les tiges de la paroi dite de rotation étant suffisamment flexibles pour ne pas empêcher cet abaissement. Lors de la remontée du cadre en position de sécurité, les tiges joue un rôle de rappel élastique favorisant la remise en position de sécurité du cadre supérieur. Il n'y a donc pas véritablement rotation au niveau de la paroi dite de rotation mais flexion des tiges, la remontée du cadre supérieur, sous l'effet des tiges est difficilement contrôlable. Par ailleurs, la flexion apportée aux tiges lors des incessants abaissements et remontées du cadre supérieure entraîne une fragilité au niveau de celle-ci pouvant entraînée une cassure de ces tiges.Document FR 2,772,577 also proposes an infant guardrail device comprising an upper frame and a lower frame, the upper frame being movable relative to said lower frame in a substantially rotational movement about an axis. passing through one of said so-called walls rotation wall. The frame can thus take two stable positions one care where the wall opposite the wall of rotation called access wall is retracted, the portion of said upper frame corresponding to said access wall being brought to the vicinity of the corresponding portion of said frame lower to facilitate handling and a security where said access wall is deployed and has a surface similar to the rotation wall. Thus, two rods formed at the so-called rotational wall maintain the upper frame spaced from the lower frame while a holding element slidably engaged in a slide plays the same role on the safety side wall. In the safety position, the upper frame is thus kept away from the lower frame by the rods and the retaining element locked in the slide. To move to the care position, the holding element is unlocked in the slide so that the front part of the upper frame can be lowered towards the front part of the lower frame, the rods of the so-called rotation wall being sufficiently flexible to do not prevent this lowering. When raising the frame in the safety position, the rods play a role of elastic return favoring the return to safety position of the upper frame. There is therefore no real rotation at the so-called wall rotation but bending of the rods, the rise of the upper frame, under the effect of the rods is difficult to control. By Moreover, the flexion provided to the rods during incessant lowering and raising of the upper frame causes a fragility at the level thereof which may cause breakage of these rods.
Le but de la présente invention est donc de pallier les inconvénients mentionnés ci- dessus et de proposer un support sécurisé pour matelas à langer protégeant contre les chutes et d'une utilisation simple en fournissant un support pour matelas à langer facile à installer et d'un coût de fabrication économiquement avantageux.The object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the drawbacks mentioned above and to provide a secure support for a fall-protection changing mat and a simple use by providing a support for changing mat easy to install and of an economically advantageous manufacturing cost.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un support sécurisé pour matelas à langer comportant un fond destiné à recevoir le matelas à langer, des parois latérales, une paroi arrière, un filet de sécurité et un cadre supérieur, ledit cadre supérieur étant monté pivotant par rapport au support, entre deux positions stables :For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a secure support for a changing mat comprising a bottom for receiving the changing mat, side walls, a rear wall, a safety net and an upper frame, said upper frame being mounted pivoting relative to the support, between two stable positions:
- une position haute dite de sécurité dans laquelle ledit cadre supérieur est situé dans un plan sensiblement parallèle au plan du fond du supporta so-called high security position in which said upper frame is situated in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the bottom of the support
- une position basse dite d'utilisation, dans laquelle la partie avant dudit cadre supérieur est amenée au voisinage de la partie avant correspondante dudit support, laissant libre l'accès pour prodiguer des soins à l'enfant par la face avant dudit support ledit support comprenant également un dispositif de commande permettant d'abaisser ledit cadre supérieur depuis sa position de sécurité vers sa position de soins ainsi que des moyens de rappel élastique dudit cadre supérieur en position de sécurité dès que le dispositif de commande cesse ses effets, caractérisé en ce que lesdits moyens de rappel élastique sont constitués par le montant arrière du cadre supérieur réalisé en un matériau élastique, ledit montant étant monté fixe en rotation, à l'exception de ses extrémités agencées pour être reliées aux montants latéraux du cadre, entraînables en rotation par lesdits montants latéraux, lors de l'abaissement et de la remontée dudit cadre supérieur.a low operating position, in which the front part of said upper frame is brought into the vicinity of the corresponding front part of said support, leaving free access to provide care for the child by the front face of said support; also comprising a control device for lowering said upper frame from its safety position to its care position and elastic return means of said upper frame in the safety position as soon as the control device ceases its effects, characterized in that that said elastic return means are constituted by the rear upright of the upper frame made of an elastic material, said upright being mounted fixed in rotation, with the exception of its ends arranged to be connected to the lateral uprights of the frame, drivable in rotation by said lateral uprights, during the lowering and raising of said upper frame.
Ainsi de manière avantageuse, lors de l'entraînement en pivotement du cadre vers la position d'utilisation, les extrémités sont également entraînées en pivotement et le montant arrière étant fixe en rotation, une torsion dudit montant au niveau des extrémités est induite. Lorsqu'on relâche l'effet du dispositif de commande de l'abaissement, les extrémités du montant arrière ne subissant plus de contrainte en torsion, reprennent leur forme initiale, rappelant ainsi automatiquement le cadre en position de sécurité. Le support sécurisé pour matelas à langer selon l'invention peut donc être utilisé en le posant directement sur un meuble servant de support, comme une table, une commode, un lit, etc., ou bien être pourvu d'un piétement adéquat, de manière fixe ou amovible.Thus, advantageously, during the pivoting drive of the frame towards the position of use, the ends are also driven in pivoting and the rear post being fixed in rotation, a torsion of said amount at the ends is induced. When releasing the effect of the lowering control device, the ends of the rear pillar no longer under torsional stress, resume their original shape, thus automatically recalling the frame in the safety position. The secure support for changing mat according to the invention can therefore be used by placing it directly on a piece of furniture serving as a support, such as a table, a dresser, a bed, etc., or be provided with a suitable base, fixed or removable way.
Ainsi, de manière avantageuse, le support pour matelas à langer peut ainsi adopter les deux positions stables suivantes :Thus, advantageously, the support for changing mat can thus adopt the following two stable positions:
- une position haute dite position de sécurité dans laquelle le cadre supérieur s'étend dans un plan sensiblement parallèle au plan du support, l'enfant se trouvant sur le matelas à langer, étant alors entouré par les trois parois ainsi que par le filet de sécurité sur la face avant, ce qui garantit qu'il ne puisse pas tomber du support,a high position known as a safety position in which the upper frame extends in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of the support, the child lying on the changing mat being then surrounded by the three walls and the safety net; security on the front, which ensures that it can not fall from the support,
- une position basse ou position d'utilisation dans laquelle le montant avant du cadre supérieur est amené au voisinage de la partie avant correspondante du support, libérant ainsi cette partie avant du support, face à l'utilisateur, afin que des soins puissent être aisément prodigués à l'enfant.a low position or use position in which the front upright of the upper frame is brought to the vicinity of the corresponding front part of the support, thus releasing this front part of the support, facing the user, so that care can be easily provided to the child.
Pour assurer le passage du cadre supérieur de la position de sécurité à la position d'utilisation, on prévoit un dispositif de commande, pouvant être constitué d'un organe de liaison tel qu'un filin souple ou rigide et d'un levier, ledit organe de liaison étant relié d'une part au montant avant du cadre supérieur et d'autre part audit levier, par exemple sous la forme d'une pédale. Ainsi, dès que l'utilisateur désirant prodiguer des soins à l'enfant exercera une pression sur le levier, par exemple en appuyant dessus avec son pied, le cadre supérieur s'abaissera dégageant l'accès au matelas sur lequel l'enfant repose.To ensure the passage of the upper frame from the safety position to the position of use, there is provided a control device, which may consist of a connecting member such as a flexible or rigid rope and a lever, said connecting member being connected firstly to the front pillar of the upper frame and secondly to said lever, for example in the form of a pedal. Thus, as soon as the user wishing to provide care to the child will exert pressure on the lever, for example by pressing with his foot, the upper frame will lower releasing access to the mattress on which the child rests.
De manière très avantageuse, dès qu'on s'éloigne du support selon l'invention, on cesse son action sur le dispositif de commande et le cadre est rappelé automatiquement en position de sécurité par les moyens de rappel élastique selon l'invention.Very advantageously, as soon as one moves away from the support according to the invention, it stops its action on the control device and the frame is automatically recalled in the safety position by the elastic return means according to the invention.
Le support est conçu de telle sorte qu'il peut recevoir un matelas sur lequel est posé l'enfant. Le fond pouvant être plein, ou même simplement matérialisé par deux barres entre les parois transversales pour accueillir le matelas à langer. Un filet de sécurité relié au cadre et au support, ou bien encore au cadre et aux parois, et entourant tout ou partie du support est installé. On peut également envisager que la paroi arrière ne soit matérialisée que par deux montants rigides verticaux de part et d'autre de la partie arrière du support, un filet étant tendu pour constituer ladite paroi.The support is designed so that it can receive a mattress on which the child is placed. The bottom can be full, or even simply materialized by two bars between the transverse walls to accommodate the changing mat. A safety net connected to the frame and the support, or even the frame and the walls, and surrounding all or part of the support is installed. It can also be envisaged that the rear wall is not materialized only by two rigid vertical uprights on either side of the rear part of the support, a net being stretched to form said wall.
De même, les parois latérales peuvent être matérialisées uniquement par un filet.Similarly, the side walls can be materialized only by a net.
On peut également prévoir une barre de blocage fixée sur la face avant du support entre les parois latérales et au-dessus du fond dudit support, de façon à limiter l'abaissement du cadre supérieur à une certaine hauteur, par exemple la hauteur du matelas à langer posé sur le fond.It is also possible to provide a locking bar fixed on the front face of the support between the side walls and above the bottom of said support, so as to limit the lowering of the upper frame to a certain height, for example the height of the mattress. langer on the bottom.
Enfin, le dispositif selon l'invention présente l'avantage que l'ensemble des moyens de rappel sont situés au niveau du cadre supérieur, ce qui permet une fabrication et un montage facilités.Finally, the device according to the invention has the advantage that all of the return means are located at the upper frame, which allows a facilitated manufacture and assembly.
De façon particulièrement avantageuse, le support sécurisé pour matelas à langer est en outre muni d'un dispositif de verrouillage du cadre supérieur en position de sécurité déverrouillable uniquement par le dispositif de commande, ce qui permet d'augmenter encore la sécurité du support en empêchant un abaissement du cadre non provoqué par le dispositif de commande.Particularly advantageously, the secure support for changing mat is further provided with a locking device of the upper frame in the unlocked safety position only by the control device, which further increases the security of the support by preventing a lowering of the frame not caused by the control device.
La présente invention va maintenant être décrite plus en détails à l'aide des dessins annexés illustrant un mode de réalisation préféré dans lesquels:The present invention will now be described in more detail with the aid of the accompanying drawings illustrating a preferred embodiment in which:
la figure 1 est une vue en perspective latérale du dessus d'un support pour matelas à langer sécurisé selon l'invention en position de sécurité ;Figure 1 is a side perspective view from above of a support for secure changing mattress according to the invention in the safety position;
la figure 2 est une vue en perspective latérale du dessus du support de la figure 1 en position de soins ;Figure 2 is a side perspective view of the top of the support of Figure 1 in the care position;
la figure 3 est une vue agrandie partiellement éclatée du montant latéral du cadre supérieur du support pour matelas à langer de la figure 1 ;Fig. 3 is an enlarged partially exploded view of the lateral upright of the upper frame of the mattress support of Fig. 1;
la figure 4 est une coupe transversale d'un montant latéral comprenant le dispositif de verrouillage du cadre supérieur, lorsque le cadre supérieur est en position de sécurité ; la figure 5 est une coupe transversale d'un montant latéral comprenant le dispositif de verrouillage du cadre supérieur, lorsque le cadre supérieur est en position de soins.Figure 4 is a cross section of a lateral upright comprising the locking device of the upper frame, when the upper frame is in the safety position; Figure 5 is a cross section of a lateral upright comprising the locking device of the upper frame, when the upper frame is in the care position.
Le support pour matelas à langer selon l'invention comporte un fond 1 de dimensions appropriées pour recevoir le matelas à langer (non représenté), celui-ci étant simplement posé dessus, un cadre supérieur 2, une paroi arrière 3 et deux parois latérales 4 rigides. Un filet de sécurité 5 est fixé au cadre supérieur 2, le long des montants latéraux 7 et du montant avant 8 dudit cadre 2. Ces montants latéraux 7 et avant 8 du cadre 2 sont de préférence de section tubulaire creuse.The support for changing mat according to the invention comprises a bottom 1 of suitable dimensions for receiving the changing mat (not shown), the latter being simply placed on top, an upper frame 2, a rear wall 3 and two side walls 4 rigid. A safety net 5 is fixed to the upper frame 2, along the lateral uprights 7 and the front upright 8 of said frame 2. These lateral uprights 7 and 8 front of the frame 2 are preferably of hollow tubular section.
De plus, on prévoit une barre de blocage ou un rebord 10 fixé sur la face avant du support entre les parois latérales 4 et au-dessus du fond 1 dudit support à la hauteur du matelas à langer, et à laquelle est fixé le filet de sécurité 5.In addition, there is provided a locking bar or a flange 10 fixed on the front face of the support between the side walls 4 and above the bottom 1 of said support at the height of the changing mat, and to which is fixed the net of security 5.
Le montant arrière du cadre supérieur 2 est constitué d'une tige 6 montée au moins partiellement fixe en rotation par rapport au support, réalisée en un matériau flexible élastique. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, ladite tige 6 est logée dans une enceinte tubulaire 9 montée fixe entre les parois latérales 4 et à laquelle ladite tige 6 est fixée au moins en un point 12, de préférence central, comme cela est visible à la figure 3.The rear upright of the upper frame 2 consists of a rod 6 mounted at least partially fixed in rotation relative to the support, made of an elastic flexible material. In the embodiment shown, said rod 6 is housed in a tubular enclosure 9 fixedly mounted between the side walls 4 and to which said rod 6 is fixed at least at a point 12, preferably central, as can be seen in FIG. 3.
Les extrémités 60 de ladite tige 6 sont engagées dans des bagues 11 reliées aux montants latéraux 7 du cadre 2. La tige 6 étant montée fixe en rotation dans l'enceinte 9 et lesdites bagues 11 étant engagées sur les extrémités libres 60 de ladite tige 6, lors de l'abaissement du cadre 2, les bagues 11 sont entraînées en pivotement par les montants latéraux 7.The ends 60 of said rod 6 are engaged in rings 11 connected to the lateral uprights 7 of the frame 2. The rod 6 being mounted fixed in rotation in the enclosure 9 and said rings 11 being engaged on the free ends 60 of said rod 6 when the frame 2 is lowered, the rings 11 are pivotally driven by the lateral uprights 7.
Ainsi, lors de l'abaissement du cadre supérieur 2 de la position de sécurité vers la position d'utilisation, les bagues de pivotement 11 entraînées en pivotement, impriment une torsion aux extrémités 60 de la tige 6, amenant lesdites extrémités 60 à se déformer avec un moment de torsion.Thus, when lowering the upper frame 2 from the safety position to the position of use, the pivoting rings 11 driven in pivoting, cause a torsion at the ends 60 of the rod 6, causing said ends 60 to deform with a twisting moment.
Dès que l'utilisateur cesse d'actionner le dispositif de commande, et cesse donc d'appliquer une force dans le sens de l'abaissement du cadre supérieur 2, du fait du caractère élastique de la tige 6, les extrémités 60 de ladite tige 6 tendent à recouvrer leur forme initiale entraînant le pivotement des bagues de pivotement 11 , et donc la remontée du cadre 2 en position de sécurité du support pour matelas à langer.As soon as the user stops operating the control device, and therefore stops applying a force in the direction of lowering the upper frame 2, because of the elastic nature of the rod 6, the ends 60 of said rod 6 tend to recover their original shape causing the pivoting of the pivot rings 11, and thus the raising of the frame 2 in the safety position of the support for changing mat.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, les montants latéraux 7 du cadre supérieur 2 de la table à langer, s 'étendant, de part et d'autre du montant arrière 6, hors des bagues de pivotement 11 , en direction de la face avant du support pour matelas à langer, sont constitués de tubes rigides et sont reliés aux bagues de pivotement 11, de manière à pouvoir entraînés en pivotement ces dernières. Lesdites bagues de pivotement 11 sont chacune logées dans l'enceinte tubulaire 9 qui est munie à ses extrémités d'une ouverture 90 destinée à laisser passer lesdits montants latéraux 7 pour venir en liaison sur lesdites bagues 11.According to the illustrated embodiment, the lateral uprights 7 of the upper frame 2 of the changing table, extending, on either side of the rear upright 6, out of the pivoting rings 11, towards the front face of the support for changing mattress, consist of rigid tubes and are connected to the pivoting rings 11, so as to be pivoted thereof. Said pivoting rings 11 are each housed in the tubular enclosure 9 which is provided at its ends with an opening 90 intended to let said lateral uprights 7 pass to connect on said rings 11.
De préférence, lesdites ouvertures 90 possèdent une section supérieure à la section desdites montants latéraux 7 de sorte à permettre le pivotement des montants latéraux 7 et l'abaissement du cadre 2 jusqu'à la position d'utilisation.Preferably, said openings 90 have a section greater than the section of said lateral uprights 7 so as to allow the pivoting of the lateral uprights 7 and the lowering of the frame 2 to the position of use.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré de l'invention, le support pour matelas à langer comprend un dispositif de commande permettant l'abaissement du cadre de sécurité 2. Ce dispositif de commande peut être constitué d'un organe de commande tel qu'un filin 13 souple ou rigide et d'un levier, ledit organe de commande étant lié d'une part au moins au montant avant 8 du cadre supérieur 2 et d'autre part audit levier, par exemple sous la forme d'une pédale. Ainsi, dès que l'utilisateur désirant prodiguer des soins à l'enfant sur le matelas, exercera une pression sur le levier, par exemple en appuyant dessus avec son pied, le filin 13 exercera un traction sur le montant avant 8 du cadre supérieur 2 qui s'abaissera dégageant l'accès au support sur lequel l'enfant repose.According to the illustrated embodiment of the invention, the support for changing mat comprises a control device for lowering the safety frame 2. This control device may consist of a control member such as a rope 13 flexible or rigid and a lever, said control member being connected on the one hand at least to the front post 8 of the upper frame 2 and secondly to said lever, for example in the form of a pedal. Thus, as soon as the user wishing to provide care to the child on the mattress, will exert pressure on the lever, for example by pressing on it with his foot, the rope 13 will exert traction on the front post 8 of the upper frame 2 which will lower giving access to the support on which the child rests.
De préférence, on prévoit en outre de préférence associé à ce dispositif de commande un dispositif de verrouillage qui se trouve au niveau de la liaison entre les montants latéraux 7 du cadre supérieur 2 et les bagues de pivotement 11. Ce dispositif comprend un doigt de verrouillage 14 agencé au niveau de chaque montant latéral 7, de sorte qu'en position de sécurité le doigt de verrouillage 14 s'engage dans l'ouverture 90 correspondante de l'enceinte 9. Les dimensions des doigts de verrouillage 14 sont telles qu'en position de sécurité, c'est-à-dire le doigt de verrouillage 14 engagé dans la lumière 90, les montants latéraux 7 sont empêchés de pivoter dans l'ouverture 90, ce qui empêche l'abaissement du cadre 2.Preferably, there is further preferably provided associated with this control device a locking device which is at the level of the connection between the lateral uprights 7 of the upper frame 2 and the pivoting rings 11. This device comprises a locking finger 14 arranged at each lateral upright 7, so that in the safety position the locking finger 14 engages in the corresponding aperture 90 of the enclosure 9. The dimensions of the locking fingers 14 are such that in safety position, that is to say the locking finger 14 engaged in the light 90, the amounts 7 are prevented from pivoting in the opening 90, which prevents the lowering of the frame 2.
A cet effet, chaque montant latéral 7 du cadre supérieur 2 présente, dans sa zone à proximité des bagues de pivotement 11, une lumière 15 au travers de laquelle le doigt de verrouillage qui s'étend le long du montant latéral 7 est porté par un coulisseau cylindrique 16 monté coulissant dans ledit montant latéral 7, une tige 17 étant fixée à une extrémité audit coulisseau 16 et s'étendant en saillie depuis celui-ci au travers d'une cale cylindrique 18 montée fixe dans le montant latéral 7, l'extrémité libre de la tige 17 étant raccordée à l'organe de commande souple du dispositif de commande d'abaissement du cadre 2 tel que le filin 13. Un moyen de rappel élastique tel qu'un ressort 19 est intercalé entre la cale fixe 18 et le coulisseau 16 de sorte qu'en position de repos du ressort 19, le coulisseau 16 est écarté de la cale 18 et le doigt de verrouillage 14 est maintenu engagé dans la lumière 90 avec le montant 7 en position de verrouillage du pivotement du cadre de sécurité 2.For this purpose, each lateral upright 7 of the upper frame 2 has, in its zone near the pivoting rings 11, a slot 15 through which the locking pin which extends along the lateral upright 7 is carried by a cylindrical slider 16 slidably mounted in said lateral upright 7, a rod 17 being fixed at one end to said slider 16 and projecting therefrom through a cylindrical wedge 18 fixedly mounted in the lateral upright 7, free end of the rod 17 being connected to the flexible control member of the lowering control device of the frame 2 such as the rope 13. An elastic return means such as a spring 19 is interposed between the fixed wedge 18 and the slider 16 so that in the rest position of the spring 19, the slider 16 is spaced from the shim 18 and the locking pin 14 is held engaged in the slot 90 with the upright 7 in the locking position of the pivoting Security Framework 2.
Lorsqu'on actionne le dispositif de commande en vue d'abaisser le cadre de sécurité 2, on imprime une traction sur le filin 13 qui tire sur l'extrémité de la tige 17, celle-ci entraîne le coulisseau 16 en coulissement dans le montant latéral 7 vers la cale 18, en comprimant le ressort 19. Le coulisseau 16 entraîne avec lui le doigt de verrouillage 14 qui se désengage de la lumière 90 libérant l'abaissement du cadre 2.When the control device is operated in order to lower the safety frame 2, a pull is drawn on the rope 13 which pulls on the end of the rod 17, the latter drives the slider 16 sliding in the upright 7 to the shim 18, compressing the spring 19. The slide 16 carries with it the locking finger 14 which disengages from the light 90 releasing the lowering of the frame 2.
La course du coulisseau 16 est limitée par le ressort 19 et/ou également par la lumière 15 contre laquelle peut buter le doigt de verrouillage 14.The stroke of the slide 16 is limited by the spring 19 and / or also by the light 15 against which the locking finger 14 can abut.
Lorsque le dispositif de commande cesse son action, le ressort 19 repousse le coulisseau 16 et par conséquent le doigt de verrouillage se réengage dans la lumière 90 en même temps que le montant latéral 7 pivote dans le sens de la remontée du cadre 2.When the control device ceases its action, the spring 19 pushes the slide 16 and consequently the locking finger is re-engaged in the light 90 at the same time that the lateral upright 7 pivots in the direction of the raising of the frame 2.
De préférence, le coulisseau cylindrique 16 est de diamètre sensiblement égal au diamètre intérieur du tube constituant ledit montant latéral 7, et présente, sur sa face orientée vers la face avant de la cale 18, une saillie cylindrique 16a complémentaire d'un évidement 18a de la cale 18. De cette façon, on met en place un dispositif de verrouillage du support pour matelas à langer en position de sécurité particulièrement avantageux, de sorte que ce n'est que pendant que l'utilisateur actionne le dispositif de commande que ce dispositif de verrouillage du support est relâché, permettant l'abaissement du cadre.Preferably, the cylindrical slider 16 is of diameter substantially equal to the inside diameter of the tube constituting said lateral upright 7, and has, on its face facing the front face of the wedge 18, a cylindrical projection 16a complementary to a recess 18a of the hold 18. In this way, a device for locking the support for a changing mat is placed in a particularly advantageous safety position, so that it is only while the user is actuating the control device that this locking device of the support is released, allowing the lowering of the frame.
Ainsi, on a prévu des moyens de rappel élastique qui permettent le retour automatique ainsi que le maintien du cadre supérieur en position de sécurité dès que l'utilisateur cesse d'actionner le dispositif de commande abaissant ledit cadre supérieur en position d'utilisation.Thus, there are provided elastic return means which allow the automatic return and the maintenance of the upper frame in the safety position as soon as the user stops operating the control device lowering said upper frame in the use position.
Grâce à ces moyens de rappel, on a réalisé un support pour matelas à langer sécurisé efficace disposant de moyens de rappel de conception simple et de fabrication peu coûteuse permettant le retour du cadre supérieur dans sa position haute assurant la sécurité de l'enfant, dès lors que l'utilisateur cesse d'actionner le dispositif de commande. De plus, un mode de réalisation préféré, qui prévoit un dispositif de verrouillage, est tel que seul l'actionnement du dispositif de commande permet l'abaissement du cadre, ce qui évite qu'un geste par lequel l'enfant appuierait sur les montants latéraux ou le montant avant du cadre ne suffise pas à abaisser ce dernier. Un tel support peut avantageusement être utilisé aussi dans le domaine vétérinaire.Thanks to these return means, it has been made an effective safe changing mattress support having recall means of simple design and inexpensive manufacturing allowing the return of the upper frame in its upper position ensuring the safety of the child, from when the user stops operating the control device. In addition, a preferred embodiment, which provides a locking device, is such that only the actuation of the control device allows the lowering of the frame, which prevents a gesture by which the child would support the amounts side or the front of the frame is not enough to lower it. Such a support can advantageously also be used in the veterinary field.
L'invention n'est bien entendu pas limitée à l'exemple de réalisation décrit mais couvre toutes les variantes possibles dans le champ de protection des revendications. The invention is of course not limited to the embodiment described but covers all possible variants in the field of protection of the claims.
