Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of seats for teleported installations, also called chair lifts.
  • Such seats are connected to a carrying aerial cable and tractor and are intended to receive passengers that it is safe to transport whatever the weather conditions and especially the positions of the seat and / or the movements that passengers are likely to perform during their transportation.
  • the invention therefore relates to a seat for example for a lift installation, consisting of a backrest and a seat and further comprising a support arch intended to be connected to a carrying cable, and a guardrail pivotally mounted vis-à-vis the seat between a lowered position and a raised position and including a horizontal bar.
  • the guardrail constitutes the prohibiting element in the lowered position any movement of the body of the passenger, and guaranteeing it an effective restraint in case of significant tilt of the seat during transport.
  • the guardrail must also be removed from this position as soon as the transport ends, and this in a way that is both effective, fast and easy for the passenger.
  • the guardrail which is an essential safety feature of chairlift seats, must be of reliable and simple use for the passenger.
  • EP 0 242 242 discloses a chairlift having seats coupled in line with an overhead cable.
  • Each seat is here coupled to the carrier cable via a hanger by a detachable fastener, which itself carries a metal frame of a seat back.
  • a railing is articulated at a point on the back of the seat back and is biased in the open position by a tension spring and / or a counterweight.
  • the railing has a horizontal bar at the front of the passenger during transport.
  • the horizontal bar pivots about a fixed axis relative to the frame, and describes in a lateral plane to the seat a circle whose center is defined by the points of articulation of the guardrail on the seat back.
  • the horizontal bar in the lowered position must be positioned at a short distance from the seat to ensure its protective function, particularly for a child, while on the other hand, it must be erased in the raised position at a sufficient distance from the head of the largest user, while remaining, on its trajectory between the two extreme positions, at a distance allowing the average user to hold it in hand to guide her. It follows that the choice of the positioning of the articulations defining the fixed axis of rotation of the guard to the body relative to the chassis is sometimes difficult and that compromises must be found.
  • the invention aims to overcome the disadvantages of the state of the art and in particular to provide a chair for chairlifts with a railing easy handling.
  • a seat for a teleported installation comprising a seat, a backrest, a hoop-support intended to be connected to a carrying cable, a guardrail and a tilting device for tilting the guardrail vis-à-vis -vis the support arch between a lowered position and a raised position in a plane movement to a degree of freedom.
  • the tilting device is arranged so that when the guardrail tilts between the lowered position and the raised position, the railing pivots about an instantaneous axis of rotation which moves relative to the support arch perpendicular to itself.
  • plane motion we mean a movement in which all the points of the solid constituted by the railing have an instant velocity vector which remain, throughout the trajectory, parallel to a fixed reference plane relative to the support arch.
  • This reference plane is in practice a transverse plane of the seat.
  • the displacement of the instantaneous axis is greater than 5 cm, and more generally between 5 and 15 cm, between the extreme positions lowered and raised.
  • the displacement of the instantaneous axis of rotation forward is greater than 5 cm, for example of the order of 5 to 15 cm. It is of the same order of magnitude upwards.
  • the trajectory of the instantaneous axis of rotation can be quasi-circular.
  • the tilting device comprises at least a first articulation mechanism comprising a first link pivoting about a first fixed axis relative to the support arch and a first fixed axis relative to the guardrail, and a second link pivoting about a second fixed axis relative to the support arch and a second axis fixed relative to the guardrail.
  • both rods comprise, with the support arch and the railing, an articulated quadrilateral, whose four vertices or pivots are formed by the four pivot axes of the two links, which are all parallel to the transverse reference axis.
  • This mechanism allows the desired movement to be achieved by extremely simple and robust means.
  • the fixed axes relative to the support arch can be located relatively low, that is to say close to the seat, without affecting the release of the guardrail up in the raised position.
  • the first fixed pivot axis relative to the support arch and the second pivot axis fixed relative to the support arch are spaced a distance d1.
  • the first fixed pivot axis with respect to the guardrail and the second fixed pivot axis with respect to the railing are spaced apart by a distance d2 different from d1, which reflects the fact that the articulated quadrilateral is not a parallelogram.
  • the distance d1 is greater than the distance d2.
  • the distances d1 and d2 can be between 5 cm and 15 cm.
  • the dimensions of the rods are different.
  • the rods do not cross at any point of their trajectory, when the guardrail passes from the lowered position to the raised position.
  • the dimensions of the links and the spacing of the axes of rotation are such that, in the lowered position, the first fixed axis of pivoting relative to the railing is situated in the plane defined by the second fixed pivot axis. relative to the guardrail and the second pivot axis fixed relative to the support arch, or at a distance from this plane less than 2 cm.
  • the dimensions of the rods and the spacing of the axes of rotation are such that, in the raised position, the second axis of fixed pivoting relative to the railing is situated in the plane defined by the first fixed pivot axis. relative to the guardrail and the first pivot axis fixed relative to the support arch, or at a distance from this plane less than 2 cm.
  • the railing comprises at least one transverse bar extending from a first lateral end of the seat to a second lateral end of the seat.
  • the first hinge mechanism is disposed at a lateral end of the seat
  • the tilting device further comprises a second articulation mechanism identical to the first hinge mechanism and disposed at the other lateral end of the seat.
  • the rods can be attached directly or indirectly to the support arch on the one hand and the guardrail on the other hand. Fixing can be done for example by means of fixing plates, provided with bores defining the axes of rotation. On the side of the support arch, the attachment can be performed on the arch itself or on the side of the seat back, itself fixed relative to the support arch.
  • the railing comprises at least one support device serving as footrest or ski rest.
  • the figure 1 shows a simplified side view of a seat according to the invention, consisting of a seat 1 and a backrest 2.
  • a support arch 3 also serves as connecting piece between the seat and a carrier cable not shown.
  • the hoop 3 is itself connected to an intermediate piece called hanger directly coupled to the support cable, via a disengageable clip or not.
  • the hanger thus carries the arch or frame 3, generally metallic, of the seat itself.
  • the frame or arch 3 may constitute the frame of the backrest 2, a lower support 30 for the seat 1, and an armrest 31.
  • the seat can be fixed or tilting relative to the hoop.
  • the frame or arch 3 may consist of a metal tube of appropriate size.
  • a railing 4 is provided, mounted swinging vis-à-vis the hoop, more precisely between a so-called lowered position and a so-called raised position.
  • the lowered position corresponds to that shown in dark lines on the figure 1
  • the raised position corresponds to that visible in lighter lines.
  • the railing 4 is provided with a horizontal bar 5 disposed in lowered position in front of the passenger, at height, to prevent it from sliding towards the front of the seat.
  • the guardrail comprises at least a first tubular element 6 which extends from the horizontal bar 5 towards the lower part of the seat and which generally ends with a footrest 60. When the railing 4 is in the lowered position, the tubular element 6 bears against the seat 1 of the seat.
  • the railing 4 comprises a second tubular element 7 associated with a tilting device 8 which will be described in more detail in connection with the figure 2 .
  • the tilting device is shown in bold lines in the lowered position, and in lighter lines the device in the raised position. More specifically, the second tubular element is referenced 7 in the lowered position, and 7 'in the raised position.
  • a piece or tab 80 is fixed on the second tubular element 7; it comprises a first 81 and a second 82 bores each respectively engaged in a first and second material axis of a first 9 and a second 10 link.
  • each link 9, 10 consists of a material axis engaged in a first 83 and a second 84 respectively bore of a part or leg 85 linked to the backrest 2.
  • the distance d1 between the axes of rotation defined by the bores 83 and 84 of the tab 85 is chosen to be greater than the distance d2 between the axes of rotation defined by the bores 81 and 82 of the tab 80.
  • the plates or legs 80, 85 are parallel to each other and belong to a lateral plane of the seat.
  • the instantaneous axis of rotation of the railing with respect to the fixed reference frame constituted by the support arch is the intersection of the plane containing the axes defined by the bores 81 and 83, that is to say the axes of rotation of the rod 9, and the plane containing the axes defined by the bores 82 and 84, that is to say the axes of rotation of the rod 10. It is observed that in the lowered position, the axes of the bores 81, 82 and 84 are coplanar, the bore 82 being located between the two others. In this position, the instantaneous axis of rotation of the railing relative to the support arch coincides with the axis of the bore 81.
  • the axes of the bores 81 and 82 are coplanar with the axis of the bore 83, the bore 81 being located between the two others.
  • the instantaneous axis of rotation of the railing relative to the support arch is coincident with the axis of the bore 82.
  • Naturally end stops ensure that the guardrail does not leave its range of motion between the lowered position and the raised position.
  • the movement of the guardrail and / or its retention in the raised position can, if necessary, be facilitated by a counterweight and / or spring device.
  • the movement can, if necessary, be motorized or automated, for example by a cam system at the entrance of the station seat.
  • the tilting is not performed by rotation of the railing 4 around a fixed center of rotation (as is known), but by a relative movement of two rods 9, 10 respectively associated with an element 7 of the guardrail 4 and the support arch, the movement of the railing is optimal for ergonomics of use.
  • the horizontal bar 5 of the railing 4 describes a non-circular movement in a lateral plane of the seat.
  • C is the known circular trajectory of the horizontal bar 5 around a single center of rotation O considering a bar profile 5 'drawn in phantom; I is the trajectory of this same bar 5 according to the invention.
  • the trajectory obtained according to the invention substantially improves the tilting of the guard rail 4, both in the direction of the opening and in that of the closure.
