Description

Domaine technique de l'inventionTechnical field of the invention

L'invention est relative à un harnais d'encordement composé d'une ceinture et d'une sellette d'assise reliées entre elles par des sangles de liaison et comprenant un dispositif d'attache. De tels harnais sont généralement utilisés par des professionnels de travaux en hauteurs à progression sécurisée sur cordes, et notamment par des élageurs.The invention relates to a lashing harness consisting of a belt and a fifth seat connected together by connecting straps and comprising a fastening device. Such harnesses are generally used by professionals working in heights with secure progression on ropes, and in particular by haulers.

État de la techniqueState of the art

Différentes tailles de harnais sont proposées par les fabricants en fonction du poids et du sexe des utilisateurs, ainsi que des différentes catégories de travaux en hauteurs. On compte généralement trois ou quatre tailles pour couvrir toutes les dimensions de chaque modèle d'une gamme. Cette multitude de tailles entraîne des problèmes de gestion de fabrication et de stockage chez le fabricant, et également des problèmes d'approvisionnement et de stockage chez les revendeurs.Different sizes of harnesses are proposed by the manufacturers according to the weight and the gender of the users, as well as the different categories of work in heights. There are usually three or four sizes to cover all the dimensions of each model in a range. This multitude of sizes leads to manufacturing management problems and storage at the manufacturer, and also problems of supply and storage at resellers.

Objet de l'inventionObject of the invention

L'objet de l'invention consiste à réaliser un harnais d'encordement ayant une sellette d'assise standard permettant un maintien confortable pour plusieurs tailles.The object of the invention is to provide a roping harness having a standard seat saddle allowing a comfortable hold for several sizes.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la sellette d'assise est dotée de moyens de réglage en largeur pour s'adapter à la morphologie de l'utilisateur.The device according to the invention is characterized in that the seat seat is equipped with width adjustment means to adapt to the morphology of the user.

Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, la sellette comporte deux parties télescopiques montées à coulissement dans une embase rigide, et étant symétriques par rapport au plan médian vertical de l'embase.According to a preferred embodiment, the fifth wheel comprises two telescopic parts slidably mounted in a rigid base, and being symmetrical with respect to the vertical median plane of the base.

De préférence, les deux parties constitutives de la sellette présentent des structures identiques ayant chacune une spatule relevée d'extrémité et une surface plane dotée d'au moins une série de trous pour le réglage en largeur de la sellette.Preferably, the two component parts of the saddle have identical structures each having a raised end spatula and a flat surface provided with at least one series of holes for adjusting the width of the fifth wheel.

L'invention concerne également une sellette d'assise destinée à être associée par des sangles à un harnais d'encordement. La sellette est caractérisée en ce qu'elle est dotée de moyens de réglage en largeur pour s'adapter à la morphologie de l'utilisateur.The invention also relates to a seat saddle intended to be associated by straps to a roping harness. The saddle is characterized in that it is equipped with adjustment means in width to adapt to the morphology of the user.

Description sommaire des dessinsBrief description of the drawings

D'autres avantages et caractéristiques ressortiront plus clairement de la description qui va suivre de modes particuliers de réalisation de l'invention donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs et représentés aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels :

  • les figures 1 et 2 représentent des vues en perspective du harnais selon l'invention, dans deux positions de réglage de la sellette d'assise ;
  • la figure 3 est une vue en perspective de dessous de la sellette lors de la mise en place des vis de fixation pour le réglage;
  • la figure 4 montre les deux parties téléscopiques identiques de la sellette après retrait de l'embase, l'une des parties étant retournée d'un demi-tour pour illustrer la face inférieure.
Other advantages and features will emerge more clearly from the following description of particular embodiments of the invention given by way of non-limiting example and represented in the accompanying drawings, in which:
  • the Figures 1 and 2 represent perspective views of the harness according to the invention, in two adjustment positions of the fifth wheel seat;
  • the figure 3 is a perspective view from below of the saddle during the installation of the fixing screws for adjustment;
  • the figure 4 shows the two identical telescopic parts of the saddle after removal of the base, one of the parts being returned a half-turn to illustrate the underside.

Description d'un mode préférentiel de l'inventionDescription of a preferred embodiment of the invention

En référence aux figures 1 à 4, un harnais d'encordement 10 est composé d'une ceinture 11 et d'une sellette 12 d'assise, reliées entre elles par des sangles 13 de liaison. La ceinture 11 est équipée à l'avant d'une boucle 14 de fermeture, et d'un dispositif d'attache 15 ventral.With reference to Figures 1 to 4 , a roping harness 10 is composed of a belt 11 and a saddle seat 12, interconnected by straps 13 connecting. The belt 11 is equipped at the front with a closure loop 14, and a ventral attachment device 15.

Les sangles 13 sont conformées en une paire de tours de cuisse pour constituer un cuissard renforcé à la base par la sellette 12 servant d'assise pour l'utilisateur.The straps 13 are shaped in a pair of turns of the thigh to form a reinforced shorts at the base by the saddle 12 serving as a seat for the user.

La sellette 12 comporte une embase 16 creuse agencée en coulisseau, et deux parties 17a, 17b téléscopiques logées de manière réglables dans le sens de la largeur à l'intérieur du coulisseau. Les deux parties 17a, 17b constitutives de la sellette 12 présentent des structures identiques, ayant chacune une spatule 18a, 18b relevée faisant saillie du coulisseau, et une surface 19a, 19b plane dotée de deux séries de trous 20a, 20b parallèles.The saddle 12 comprises a hollow base 16 arranged in a slider, and two telescopic portions 17a, 17b mounted in a widthwise adjustable manner inside the slider. The two portions 17a, 17b constituting the fifth wheel 12 have identical structures, each having a raised spatula 18a, 18b protruding from the slide, and a flat surface 19a, 19b provided with two series of parallel holes 20a, 20b.

L'embase 16 rigide est munie de quatre orifices 21 pour le passage de vis de fixation 22 destinées à traverser les trous respectifs 20a, 20b des parties 17a, 17b téléscopiques pour le réglage en largeur de la sellette 12.The rigid base 16 is provided with four holes 21 for the passage of fastening screws 22 intended to pass through the respective holes 20a, 20b of the telescopic parts 17a, 17b for adjusting the width of the fifth wheel 12.

A titre d'exemple, l'embase 16 est métallique, tandis que les deux parties 17a, 17b réglables sont réalisées en matière plastique injectée. Un seul moule est nécessaire pour la fabrication des parties 17a, 17b téléscopiques.For example, the base 16 is metal, while the two parts 17a, 17b adjustable are made of injected plastic material. A single mold is required for the manufacture of the telescopic parts 17a, 17b.

En référence à la figure 3, les deux parties 17a, 17b opposées de la sellette 12 sont symétriques par rapport au plan médian vertical de l'embase 16. Il est ainsi facile d'adapter la largeur de la sellette 12 à la morphologie de l'utilisateur tout en assurant le centrage de ladite sellette par rapport au plan médian.With reference to the figure 3 , the two opposite parts 17a, 17b of the fifth wheel 12 are symmetrical relative to the vertical median plane of the base 16. It is thus easy to adapt the width of the fifth wheel 12 to the morphology of the user while ensuring the centering of said saddle relative to the median plane.

Selon un développement de l'invention, la sellette 12 réglable en largeur peut constituer un sous-ensemble distinct du harnais, et être vendue séparément. Elle est raccordable à tout type de harnais au moyen de deux sangles d'attache solidaires des spatule 18a, 18b.According to a development of the invention, the fifth wheel adjustable width may be a separate subset of the harness, and sold separately. It is connectable to any type of harness by means of two fastening straps integral spatula 18a, 18b.
