Description

Domaine de l'inventionField of the invention

La présente invention concerne le domaine des barres de seuil et autres éléments de bordure de revêtements de sol.The present invention relates to the field of threshold bars and other edge elements of floor coverings.

Exposé de l'art antérieurPresentation of the prior art

Les barres de seuil sont des éléments fixés sur le sol de locaux d'habitation ou de bureaux, au niveau de la jonction de deux revêtements de sol différents ou de niveaux différents. Une barre de seuil présente un intérêt à la fois fonctionnel et esthétique. Elle assure une protection des bords de revêtements de sol adjacents et masque leurs irrégularités tout en constituant une ligne de séparation nette et droite.Threshold bars are elements that are attached to the floor of living quarters or offices at the junction of two different floor coverings or levels. A threshold bar is both functional and aesthetic. It protects the edges of adjacent floor coverings and masks their irregularities while constituting a clean and straight line of separation.

Les éléments de bordure ou arrêts de bordure sont utilisés entre la limite d'un revêtement de sol et un mur également pour des raisons fonctionnelles et/ou esthétiques. Par exemple quand le revêtement de sol est un parquet, il est souhaitable de laisser un jour entre la limite du parquet et le mur pour éviter les problèmes de dilatation. L'arrêt de bordure cache ce jour et protège le bord du revêtement.Border elements or border stops are used between the boundary of a floor covering and a wall also for functional and / or aesthetic reasons. For example when the flooring is a parquet, it is desirable to leave a day between the limit of the parquet and the wall to avoid problems of expansion. The border stop hides this day and protects the edge of the liner.

Un type connu de barre de seuil, dit barre de seuil à glissière, est illustré en figure 1. La barre de seuil 1 est munie sur sa face inférieure d'ailettes 2 définissant une glissière dans laquelle peuvent coulisser des têtes de clous 3 qui peuvent être directement enfoncés dans des trous préparés dans le sol. Ces clous sont généralement ou bien des "clous-vis" métalliques destinés à coopérer avec des chevilles, ou bien des "clous-chevilles" en matière plastique munis d'ailettes anti-arrachement enfoncés directement dans des trous ménagés dans le sol.A known type of threshold bar, called a sliding threshold bar, is illustrated in FIG. figure 1 . The threshold bar 1 is provided on its lower face with fins 2 defining a slide in which can slide nail heads 3 which can be directly sunk into prepared holes in the ground. These nails are generally either metal "nails" intended to cooperate with dowels, or "plastic dowels" provided with anti-tearing vanes driven directly into holes in the ground.

Le système de la figure 1 présente un avantage de simplicité de pose. En effet, il suffit de préparer dans le sol des trous en alignement sans qu'il soit nécessaire qu'ils aient entre eux des espacements rigoureux. Un nombre de clous correspondant est placé dans la glissière, après quoi les clous sont mis en place par glissement en face des chevilles correspondantes puis la barre est enfoncée, enfonçant du même fait les clous. Cet enfoncement peut se faire simplement en marchant sur la barre. Toutefois, ce type de barre de seuil n'est pas adapté au cas où les niveaux des deux revêtements adjacents dont la barre de seuil vise à masquer la jointure présentent un décalage de hauteur non négligeable.The system of figure 1 has the advantage of simplicity of installation. Indeed, it is sufficient to prepare holes in alignment in the ground without it being necessary for them to have rigorous spacings between them. A corresponding number of nails are placed in the slide, after which the nails are slid into position opposite the corresponding pins and the bar is then depressed, driving the nails in the same way. This depression can be done simply by walking on the bar. However, this type of threshold bar is not adapted to the case where the levels of the two adjacent coatings whose threshold bar aims to hide the join have a significant height shift.

Ainsi, on a développé, comme le décrit le brevet européen 0 588 734 de la demanderesse, une barre de seuil à glissière adapté au cas où les niveaux des deux revêtements adjacents sont différents.Thus, it has developed, as described in European patent 0 588 734 of the applicant, a slide threshold bar adapted to the case where the levels of two adjacent coatings are different.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe partiellement en perspective d'une telle barre de seuil en cours de pose sur un sol 11 sur lequel sont déposés des revêtements de hauteurs inégales, respectivement 12 et 13, par exemple une moquette et un carreau. La barre de seuil 14 a une partie supérieure apparente légèrement bombée et éventuellement elle-même peinte, teinte, ou recouverte d'un matériau d'apprêt pour lui donner tout aspect esthétique souhaité. La partie inférieure de la barre comprend des nervures en saillie 15 et 16 définissant entre elles et avec la partie inférieure 17 de la barre une glissière longitudinale 18. Dans cette glissière peut être insérée la tête 20 d'un clou 21. Ce clou est destiné à être enfoncé dans un trou formé dans le sol 11, avec ou sans une cheville 22.The figure 2 is a sectional view partially in perspective of such a threshold bar being laid on a floor 11 on which are deposited unequal heights of cover, respectively 12 and 13, for example a carpet and a tile. The threshold bar 14 has an apparent upper part slightly curved and possibly itself painted, dyed, or covered with a primer to give it any desired aesthetic appearance. The lower part of the bar comprises protruding ribs 15 and 16 defining between them and with the lower part 17 of the bar a longitudinal slide 18. In this slide can be inserted the head 20 of a nail 21. This nail is intended to be driven into a hole formed in the ground 11, with or without an ankle 22.

Les figures 3A, 3B et 3C qui sont respectivement une vue de côté, une vue de face et une vue en perspective d'un clou, sont destinées à illustrer une forme de tête de clou particulièrement bien adaptée. Cette tête 20 a la forme d'un demi-cylindre perpendiculaire à la tige 21 du clou et aplati du côté opposé à cette tige. Ce demi-cylindre forme un coulisseau adapté à glisser dans la glissière 18. Cette forme allongée des coulisseaux 20 permet d'éviter une rotation des têtes de clous et donc des tiges de clous dans un plan passant par l'axe longitudinal de la glissière. Ainsi, les tiges ne peuvent se coucher dans la glissière pendant la phase d'enfoncement.The FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C which are respectively a side view, a front view and a perspective view of a nail, are intended to illustrate a form of nail head particularly well adapted. This head 20 has the shape of a half-cylinder perpendicular to the stem 21 of the nail and flattened on the opposite side to this rod. This half-cylinder forms a slider adapted to slide in the slideway 18. This elongate shape of the sliders 20 makes it possible to avoid a rotation of the nail heads and thus of the nail rods in a plane passing through the longitudinal axis of the slider. Thus, the rods can not lie in the slide during the driving phase.

Dans le cas où le clou a la forme illustrée en figures 3A-3C, la partie 17 de la glissière a de préférence la forme d'un V définissant une arête d'appui 19 venant appuyer sensible ment au centre de la face plane supérieure de la tête de clou. En outre, l'espace entre les lèvres en regard des nervures 15 et 16 est supérieur au diamètre de la tige du clou 21. Ainsi, une fois que le clou est mis en place, et jusqu'à son enfoncement complet, la barre de seuil peut tourner légèrement autour des têtes de clous, l'axe de rotation correspondant à l'arête d'appui 19. Ceci permet un positionnement et une fixation pour différentes hauteurs de décalage entre les revêtements 12 et 13. Comme cela est représenté en figure 2, les parois internes, vers leurs extrémités, des nervures 15 et 16 ont une forme complémentaire de l'arrondi du coulisseau 20. L'angle du V définissant l'arête d'appui 19 est de préférence choisi pour que, quand la barre de seuil est dans une de ses positions d'inclinaison extrême, on ait simultanément un appui de la tige du clou contre l'une des lèvres des nervures 15, 16 et de la moitié supérieure de la tête de clou contre l'un des flancs du V.In the case where the nail has the form illustrated in Figures 3A-3C , the portion 17 of the slide preferably has the shape of a V defining a bearing edge 19 coming substantially to the center of the upper planar face of the nail head. In addition, the space between the lips opposite the ribs 15 and 16 is greater than the diameter of the stem of the nail 21. Thus, once the nail is put in place, and until its complete penetration, the bar of threshold can rotate slightly around the nail heads, the axis of rotation corresponding to the bearing edge 19. This allows positioning and fixing for different offset heights between the coatings 12 and 13. As shown in FIG. figure 2 , the inner walls, towards their ends, ribs 15 and 16 have a shape complementary to the rounding of the slider 20. The angle of the V defining the support edge 19 is preferably chosen so that when the bar of threshold is in one of its positions of extreme inclination, one simultaneously has a support of the stem of the nail against one of the lips of the ribs 15, 16 and the upper half of the nail head against one of the flanks of the V.

De préférence, les clous 21 sont munis de nervures transverses de façon que, une fois enfoncés dans le sol, ils présentent une très forte résistance à l'arrachement. Dans un mode de réalisation simple, les tiges 21 des clous peuvent être des tiges filetées.Preferably, the nails 21 are provided with transverse ribs so that, once driven into the ground, they have a very high resistance to tearing. In a simple embodiment, the rods 21 of the nails may be threaded rods.

Dans ce qui précède, on a décrit une forme particulière de tête de clou, 1'homme de métier notera que de nombreuses formes peuvent être utilisées du moment que la glissière 18 a une forme complémentaire adaptée. Les têtes de clous pourront avoir toute forme cylindrique souhaitée, par exemple être des cylindres à section circulaire.In the foregoing, there has been described a particular form of nail head, one skilled in the art will appreciate that many shapes can be used as long as the slide 18 has a suitable complementary shape. The nail heads may have any desired cylindrical shape, for example circular cylinders.

On pourra aussi envisager une structure inverse de celle de la figure 2 dans laquelle le fond 17 de la glissière est sensiblement plan et où c'est la tête du clou qui est en forme de V convexe, l'arête de ce V définissant un axe de rotation.We can also consider a structure opposite to that of the figure 2 wherein the bottom 17 of the slide is substantially flat and where it is the head of the nail which is convex V-shaped, the edge of this V defining an axis of rotation.

Par ailleurs, on a développé divers systèmes d'arrêt de bordure. Dans un arrêt de bordure, comme dans une barre de seuil, l'une des difficultés est de prévoir une surface supérieure ayant un aspect optimisé, adapté aux couleurs des revêtements ou de la pièce.In addition, various edge stop systems have been developed. In a border stop, as in a threshold bar, one of the difficulties is to provide an upper surface having an optimized appearance, adapted to the colors of the coverings or the part.

Ainsi, un fabricant de barres de seuil et d'arrêts de bordure doit développer deux types de structure, dont chacun comprend un grand nombre de présentations en diverses couleurs, aspects et matériaux, ce qui entraîne des coûts de fabrication élevés. De plus ceci entraîne pour les distributeurs et vendeurs des difficultés de stockage.Thus, a manufacturer of threshold bars and edge stops must develop two types of structure, each of which includes a large number of presentations in various colors, aspects and materials, resulting in high manufacturing costs. In addition, this leads to storage difficulties for distributors and sellers.

Description détailléedetailed description

La figure 4 représente une barre de seuil du type de celle de la figure 2 montée en arrêt de bordure. La barre de seuil 14 est disposée entre un revêtement 13 posé sur un sol 11 et un mur 30 de façon à masquer l'ouverture formée entre la limite de revêtement et le mur. On comprendra que plutôt que d'un mur, il pourra s'agir de toute saillie délimitant une partie d'une pièce, par exemple la partie inférieure de la menuiserie d'une porte coulissante. Comme précédemment, il s'agit d'une barre de seuil à glissière comprenant des nervures 15, 16 définissant avec le côté inférieur de la barre de seuil une glissière ouverte du côté inférieur. Cette barre de seuil est fixée par des clous représentés en figure 6.The figure 4 represents a threshold bar of the type of that of the figure 2 climb to edge stop. The threshold bar 14 is disposed between a coating 13 placed on a floor 11 and a wall 30 so as to mask the opening formed between the coating limit and the wall. It will be understood that rather than a wall, it may be any projection delimiting a part of a room, for example the lower part of the carpentry of a sliding door. As before, it is a sliding threshold bar comprising ribs 15, 16 defining with the lower side of the threshold bar a slide open on the lower side. This threshold bar is fixed by nails represented in figure 6 .

Une cale 32 est disposée sous le bord de la barre de seuil disposé à la limite du mur 30. La cale 32 comporte une tête 34, similaire aux têtes des clous décrits précédemment (c'est-à-dire de préférence en forme de portion de cylindre). Cette cale a une longueur, dans le sens axial de la barre de seuil inférieure à la distance entre clous et on pourra insérer une ou plusieurs de ces cales entre chaque paire de clous successifs. La cale est dimensionnée pour que, quand la barre de seuil 14 est mise en place, il se crée un appui, par exemple dans la région d'extrémité 35 de la barre de seuil, de sorte que la barre de seuil soit, de façon générale horizontale.A shim 32 is disposed under the edge of the threshold bar disposed at the boundary of the wall 30. The wedge 32 comprises a head 34, similar to the heads of the nails described above (that is to say preferably in the form of a portion of cylinder). This wedge has a length, in the axial direction of the lower threshold bar to the distance between nails and we can insert one or more of these wedges between each pair of successive nails. The shim is dimensioned so that, when the threshold bar 14 is put in place, it is created a support, for example in the end region 35 of the threshold bar, so that the threshold bar is, so general horizontal.

La figure 5 reprend les caractéristiques de la figure 4 mais avec une modification de réalisation de l'accessoire formant cale. Dans le cas de la figure 5, cet accessoire de cale comprend une portion de plaque horizontale 36. La portion de plaque horizontale 36 est solidaire de la tête de clou 34 et d'une portion de plaque verticale 38 du côté de la portion de plaque horizontale 36 opposé à la tête 34. Ceci rend l'accessoire de cale particulièrement facile et peu coûteux à fabriquer.The figure 5 takes the characteristics of the figure 4 but with a modification of embodiment of the wedge accessory. In the case of figure 5 , this wedge accessory comprises a horizontal plate portion 36. The horizontal plate portion 36 is integral with the nail head 34 and a vertical plate portion 38 on the side of the horizontal plate portion 36 opposite the head 34 This makes the wedge accessory particularly easy and inexpensive to manufacture.

Selon un autre avantage de ce mode de réalisation de la présente invention, on pourra fabriquer des accessoires formant cale tels qu'illustrés en figure 5 avec une hauteur relativement élevée pour la portion de plaque verticale 38 et découper à la demande cette portion de plaque verticale 38 en fonction de l'épaisseur du revêtement 13, par exemple un parquet, auquel on veut adapter l'arrêt de bordure. Par exemple, la portion de plaque verticale 38 comportera des rainures de fragilisation horizontales pour être cassable à des hauteurs souhaitées. On pourra aussi prévoir sur la portion de plaque verticale 38 des repères de hauteur simplifiant la découpe de cette portion en vue de son ajustement à l'épaisseur d'un revêtement.According to another advantage of this embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to manufacture wedge accessories as illustrated in FIG. figure 5 with a relatively high height for the vertical plate portion 38 and cut on demand this vertical plate portion 38 depending on the thickness of the coating 13, for example a floor, which is to adapt the edge stop. For example, the vertical plate portion 38 will have horizontal embrittlement grooves to be breakable at desired heights. It is also possible to provide on the vertical plate portion 38 height markers simplifying the cutting of this portion to its adjustment to the thickness of a coating.

La figure 6 est une figure similaire à la figure 5, dans laquelle on a en outre représenté un clou 21 derrière lequel se trouve une cale 36, 38.The figure 6 is a figure similar to the figure 5 , in which there is further shown a nail 21 behind which is a shim 36, 38.

La figure 7 est une vue en perspective représentant une succession de clous et de cales adaptés à la présente invention. Dans la représentation de la figure 7, l'effet de perspective donne l'impression que les clous et les cales sont particulièrement serrés. En pratique, les clous seront relativement espacés et une ou plusieurs cales seront disposées entre eux.The figure 7 is a perspective view showing a succession of nails and wedges adapted to the present invention. In the representation of the figure 7 , the perspective effect gives the impression that nails and wedges are particularly tight. In practice, the nails will be relatively spaced and one or more shims will be arranged between them.

Pour faciliter la pose, on pourra prévoir que la cale comporte, comme cela est indiqué en figure 5 par la référence 40, une extension s'étendant du côté opposé à celui du côté duquel doit se trouver la cale, de façon que, pendant la pose, la cale se trouve sensiblement en position. Cette extension 40 sera de préférence relativement fine pour être souple et/ou facilement cassable et ne pas nuire à la mise en place.To facilitate the installation, it will be possible to provide that the wedge comprises, as indicated in figure 5 40, an extension extending from the opposite side to the side from which the wedge should be, so that during laying, the hold is substantially in position. This extension 40 will preferably be relatively thin to be flexible and / or easily breakable and not detrimental to the establishment.

On a représenté deux formes particulières de cales. On notera que toute autre forme de cale pourra être prévue, du moment que cette cale comporte une tête permettant de l'insérer dans la glissière d'une barre de seuil à glissière et qu'elle comporte une partie inférieure permettant un appui sur le sol et une partie supérieure permettant un appui sur un côté d'une barre de seuil. Bien entendu, toutes valeurs de dimension de la cale pourront être utilisées en ce qui concerne sa largeur et sa longueur selon les besoins et les applications et matériaux utilisés. La cale pourra être réalisée en tout matériau souhaité selon l'application visée. Par exemple, elle pourra être en matière plastique relativement résistante ou être métallique.Two particular forms of wedges have been shown. Note that any other form of wedge may be provided, as long as the wedge has a head for inserting it into the slide of a sliding threshold bar and it comprises a lower part allowing support on the ground and an upper part allowing support on one side of a threshold bar. Of course, any size values of the shim can be used in terms of its width and length according to the needs and applications and materials used. The shim can be made of any desired material according to the intended application. For example, it may be relatively resistant plastic or be metallic.

Dans son application à un arrêt de bordure, la présente invention prévoit que la barre de seuil est in fine sensiblement horizontale. Elle s'applique à tout type de barre de seuil à glissière par exemple à un montage non articulé du type de celui de la figure 1.In its application to a border stop, the present invention provides that the threshold bar is ultimately substantially horizontal. It applies to any type of slider threshold bar for example to a non-articulated mounting of the type of that of the figure 1 .

On comprendra que la prévision d'un accessoire selon la présente invention ne complique pas la mise en place d'une barre de seuil formant arrêt de bordure par rapport à la mise en place d'une barre de seuil à glissière telle que décrite précédemment. Simplement, au lieu de disposer initialement dans la rainure de la barre de seuil seulement des clous, on disposera alternativement des clous et des accessoires selon la présente invention. Les cales se mettront en place sous la barre de seuil pendant l'enfoncement des clous jusqu'à bloquer un côté de cette barre.It will be understood that the provision of an accessory according to the present invention does not complicate the establishment of a threshold bar edge stop relative to the establishment of a sliding threshold bar as described above. Simply, instead of initially having only nails in the groove of the threshold bar, alternately nails and accessories according to the present invention will be arranged. The shims will fit under the sill bar while driving the nails until one side of the bar is blocked.
