Definitions

  • the invention relates to a knife handle to be coated.
  • Known plaster knives have a handle attached to a blade for forcefully applying plaster against a surface.
  • the blade must have sufficient flexibility to bend in order to apply the coating without scraping the face and sufficient rigidity so that the coating is pressed against the surface.
  • An improvement consists in providing a flexible blade for the coating and a rigid counterblade intended to be in contact with the flexible blade during use.
  • the handle of the coating knife described in this application has several disadvantages. Indeed, its shape does not allow a comfortable and effective handling because its handling is tiring and it is difficult to apply the coating with uniform pressure.
  • such a handle can not be used effectively with an extension handle to coat a high face or difficult to access because on the one hand the handle is not sufficiently maintained and, on the other hand, the applied pressure n ' is not uniform.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages and to provide a knife handle to be used as well by hand with an extension handle and allowing a uniform application of the coating while limiting the efforts to be applied.
  • the invention provides a grip portion and a lever portion on the handle.
  • the subject of the invention is more specifically a coating knife handle constituted by a profile, comprising a gripping part connected by a central part to a fixing part of at least one coating blade, in which the gripping part presents a gripping zone allowing a user to pull the coating knife to spread the plaster, and a lever area allowing the user to leverage with his thumb in order to bend the blade and apply pressure to the plaster.
  • the front convex face may have a radius of curvature of between 0.2 and 0.6 cm, the concave front face may have a radius of curvature of between 0.5 and 0.8 cm, and the face concave rear lever may have a main radius of curvature of between 1.1 and 1.4 cm;
  • the convex gripping face can be connected to the concave gripping face by a bonding zone constituted by a planar gripping face;
  • the flat gripping face may form an angle of between 40 ° and 70 °, preferably between 50 ° and 60 °, typically between 53 ° and 57 °, with a plane passing through the junction between said flat gripping face and the concave gripping face, parallel to the plane of the blade;
  • the ratio between the radius of curvature of the front-grip convex face and the radius of curvature of the front-tap concave face can be between 0.4 and 0.7;
  • the ratio between the radius of curvature of the front gripping concave face and the radius of curvature of the concave rear lever face may be between 0.4 and 0.6; and or
  • the handle may further comprise a dimensionally deformable compression portion intended to be in contact with the deformable coating blade during use.
  • the invention also relates to a fixing portion of an extension handle to the previous handle, said gripping portion having a shape complementary to the grip and lever areas of the handle to be adapted to be secured to the handle.
  • the invention also relates to an extension handle provided with the previous fixing part.
  • FIG. 1 a sectional view of a knife handle to be coated according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view of the handle of Figure 1 held by a hand
  • the so-called “upper” elements are those located towards the top of the handle of FIG. 1
  • the so-called “front” elements are those situated to the right of the handle of FIG.
  • the so-called “rear” elements are those located to the left of the handle of Figure 1
  • the so-called “lower” elements are those located towards the bottom of the handle of Figure 1.
  • a handle 100 of coating knife is constituted by a profile which has a gripping portion 10 and a fixing portion 30 of at least one elastically deformable coating blade (not shown) in a plane P1.
  • the gripping portion 10 and the fixing portion 30 are connected by a central portion 20.
  • the gripping portion 10 has an upper face 1 for receiving a portion of the palm and fingers of the hand of the user ( Figure 3) .
  • upper face 1 is preferably convex so as to match the shape of the hand during gripping.
  • the upper face 1 is connected to the central portion 20, in the front, by a convex front engaging face 2a against which the fingers of the user can bend and, at the rear, by a lower face of lever 3a against which can be pressed the thumb of the user.
  • the front gripping convex face 2a is connected to a concave gripping face 2c located at the front of the central portion 20 and the lower lever face 3a is connected to a concave rear lever face 3b located at the rear of the central portion 20.
  • These concave faces 3b and 2c are intended to form a space for receiving respectively the end of the thumb and other fingers.
  • the faces 2a and 2c form a front engagement face 2 intended to receive the end of the fingers of the user and, the faces 3a and 3b form a rear face of lever 3 for receiving the thumb of the user.
  • the connecting zone between the upper face 1 and the face 3a is wedged in the palm of the hand, between the thumb and the other fingers of the hand.
  • the handle has a gripping zone allowing the user to pull the knife to be coated in the direction of the arrow F1 to spread the coating, and a lever zone allowing the user to perform a movement of lever with its thumb in the direction of the arrow F2 to bend the blade 200 with force and apply pressure to the coating.
  • the convex gripping face 2a is connected to the concave gripping face 2c by a connecting zone 2b.
  • this connection zone 2b is constituted by a planar gripping face forming an angle ⁇ of about 55 ° with a plane P2 passing through the junction between said planar gripping face 2b and the concave gripping face 2c, parallel to the plane P1 of the blade 200.
  • This flat face allows better support and, therefore, better support of the fingers on the handle so that the traction forces of the knife during use are reduced.
  • the convex gripping face 2a has a radius of curvature R1 between 0.2 and 0.6 cm
  • the concave gripping face 2c has a radius of curvature R2 of between 0.5 and 0.8 cm
  • the concave rear lever face 3b has a main radius of curvature R3 of between 1.1 and 1.4 cm, the main radius of curvature being defined as the radius of the curvature at the rear of the handle and the opposite of the front concave face.
  • the convex gripping face 2a has a radius of curvature R1 of 0.4 cm
  • the concave gripping face 2c has a radius of curvature R2 of 0.7 cm
  • the concave rear face of lever 3b has a main radius of curvature R3 of 1.3 cm.
  • a handle according to the invention therefore allows a regular and effective application of the coating while providing an ergonomics of optimal use reducing fatigue of the user.
  • the thumb does not just have a role of maintaining the profile. It applies, thanks to the face 3a, a lever movement which is transmitted to the blade by the rest of the profile and, in particular, a dimensionally compressive portion 40 intended to be in contact with the blade to be coated.
  • the point of application of the leverage is therefore away from the hand, which allows to coat the surface without fatigue for the user and with a consistent quality all along the blade and the profile.
  • curvature reversals between the upper face and the concave front engagement 2c and rearward lever 3b surfaces form protruding gripping and levering areas that allow an extension handle with a shape-fixing portion. complementary to being secured to the handle while providing sufficient support to apply a uniform pressure to the blade.
  • An angle ⁇ between 40 ° and 70 °, of preferably between 50 ° and 60 °, typically between 53 ° and 57 ° allows effective grip of the handle in the hand and excellent locking before the fixing portion of the extension handle.
  • the ratio between the radius of curvature R2 of the concave gripping face and the main radius of curvature R3 of the concave lever rear face is between 0.4 and 0.6.
  • the flat gripping face 2b has a determined length of between 0.5 and 1.1 cm. In the embodiment of Figure 1, the length D1 is about 0.9 cm;
  • the knife handle to be coated comprises, in addition, a non-deformable compressive portion 40 intended to be in contact with the deformable coating blade during use.
  • This dimensionally stable portion 40 has a free edge intended to be in contact with the blade. As illustrated in FIG. 3, this free edge is preferably rectilinear and parallel to the edge of the convex gripping face before 2a. Thus, this rectilinear free edge allows the transmission of the lever movement, homogeneously and over the entire length of the blade and the profile;
  • the handle may have reinforcing reinforcements inside the profile
  • the profile of the handle can be made by extrusion and then cut to the width of the blade to distribute the pressure over the entire width.
