Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a podo-touch pad.
  • Such a stud is intended to be set up at a sidewalk, or other passage taken by pedestrians, and to constitute a sign for the visually impaired, this stud, with other neighboring studs, being sensitive through the sole of a shoe.
  • This type of pad must meet a standard that provides, in particular, that it must include a curved circular surface.
  • a podo-tactile pad as described in FR 2900698 A comprises a plurality of circular ribs concentric with the axis of the stud.
  • the stud concerned comprises, in a manner known per se, a surface provided with protruding ribs constituting anti-slip elements.
  • said ribs are arranged in a plurality of series of ribs regularly distributed around the periphery of said surface, each rib having a chevron shape whose tip is substantially directed towards the central zone of this surface.
  • the stud according to the invention is shown to have a slip capacity significantly increased compared to a stud according to the prior art.
  • Said surface may comprise between two and six series of ribs; preferably, it comprises four series of ribs.
  • the two rib portions forming a chevron are arranged to form an angle of substantially 90 ° between them in plan view.
  • the series of ribs may not be immediately adjacent to each other; preferably, however, these series are immediately adjacent to each other so that all of said upper surface is covered by said ribs.
  • the figures represent a podo-touch pad 1, that is to say a pad intended to be set up at a sidewalk, or other passage taken by pedestrians, and to constitute a sign for the visually impaired, this stud, with other neighboring studs, being sensitive through the sole of a shoe.
  • such a stud 1 comprises an anchoring part 2 on the ground and a circular convex surface 3.
  • the surface 3 comprises a plurality of projecting anti-skid ribs 4 arranged in four series of adjacent ribs regularly distributed over the circumference of the surface 3.
  • Each rib 4 has a chevron shape whose tip is substantially directed towards the pole of the convex surface 3, the two rib portions constituting a chevron being arranged so as to form between them, seen in plan (cf. figure 3 ), an angle of substantially 90 °.
  • each rib portion 4 has, in cross-section, a triangular shape; the angulation of the two flanks of the rib is of the order of 70 °.
  • Each rib 4 may in particular have a width of the order of 1 mm at its base and have a height of about 0.5 mm. It may have a slightly rounded end edge, generated by a radius of the order of 0.3 mm.
  • the base of each rib forms, with the adjacent surface of the surface 3, a sharp angle.
  • each rib 4 with the adjacent rib or ribs is of the order of 1 mm.
  • the stud 1 according to the invention is shown to have a slip capacity significantly increased compared to a stud according to the prior art.

Description

  • La présente invention concerne un plot podo-tactile.
  • Un tel plot est destiné à être mis en place au niveau d'un trottoir, ou autre passage emprunté par des piétons, et à constituer une signalisation pour les personnes malvoyantes, ce plot, avec d'autres plots voisins, étant sensible au travers de la semelle d'une chaussure. Ce type de plot doit répondre à une norme qui prévoit, notamment, qu'il doit comprendre une surface bombée circulaire.
  • Ce type de plot doit également présenter une certaine capacité d'adhérence afin de ne pas risquer d'être la cause de chutes ou autres pertes d'équilibre pour les piétons. À cet effet, un plot podo-tactile tel que décrit dans FR 2900698 A comprend une pluralité de nervures circulaires concentriques à l'axe du plot.
  • Ce plot existant a cependant pour inconvénient de ne pas être parfaitement antidérapant, et l'objectif de la présente invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient important.
  • Le plot concerné comprend, de manière connue en soi, une surface pourvue de nervures en saillie constituant des éléments antidérapants.
  • Selon l'invention, lesdites nervures sont disposées selon une pluralité de séries de nervures régulièrement réparties sur le pourtour de ladite surface, chaque nervure ayant une forme en chevron dont la pointe est sensiblement dirigée vers la zone centrale de cette surface.
  • Grâce à cette pluralité de séries de nervures en chevron régulièrement réparties sur la circonférence de ladite surface, le plot selon l'invention s'avère présenter une capacité antidérapante nettement augmentée par rapport à un plot selon la technique antérieure.
  • Ladite surface peut comprendre entre deux et six séries de nervures ; de préférence, elle comprend quatre séries de nervures. Dans ce cas, les deux parties de nervure composant un chevron sont disposées de manière à former entre elles, vues en plan, un angle de substantiellement 90°.
  • Les séries de nervures pourraient ne pas être immédiatement adjacentes les unes des autres ; de préférence, toutefois, ces séries sont immédiatement adjacentes les unes des autres de telle sorte que l'ensemble de ladite surface supérieure est recouvert par lesdites nervures.
  • L'invention sera bien comprise, et d'autres caractéristiques et avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront, en référence au dessin schématique annexé, ce dessin représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, une forme de réalisation préférée du plot qu'elle concerne.
    • La figure 1 en est une vue en perspective ;
    • la figure 2 en est une vue de côté ;
    • la figure 3 en est une vue de dessus ;
    • la figure 4 en est une vue de côté, partielle et à échelle agrandie ; et
    • la figure 5 est une vue d'une nervure en section transversale.
  • Les figures représentent un plot podo-tactile 1, c'est-à-dire un plot destiné à être mis en place au niveau d'un trottoir, ou autre passage emprunté par des piétons, et à constituer une signalisation pour les personnes malvoyantes, ce plot, avec d'autres plots voisins, étant sensible au travers de la semelle d'une chaussure.
  • Conformément à la norme applicable, un tel plot 1 comprend une partie 2 d'ancrage au sol et une surface bombée circulaire 3.
  • Comme cela est représenté, la surface 3 comprend une pluralité de nervures antidérapantes 4 en saillie, disposées selon quatre séries 5 de nervures adjacentes, régulièrement réparties sur la circonférence de la surface 3. Chaque nervure 4 a une forme en chevron dont la pointe est sensiblement dirigée vers le pôle de la surface bombée 3, les deux parties de nervure composant un chevron étant disposées de manière à former entre elles, vues en plan (cf. figure 3), un angle de substantiellement 90°.
  • En référence à la figure 5, il apparaît que chaque partie de nervure 4 a, vue en coupe transversale, une forme triangulaire ; l'angulation des deux flancs de la nervure est de l'ordre de 70°.
  • Chaque nervure 4 peut notamment avoir une largeur de l'ordre d'1 mm à sa base et avoir une hauteur de l'ordre de 0,5 mm. Elle peut présenter une arrête d'extrémité légèrement arrondie, générée par un rayon de l'ordre de 0,3 mm. La base de chaque nervure forme, avec la surface adjacente de la surface 3, un angle vif.
  • L'espacement de chaque nervure 4 avec la ou les nervures adjacentes est de l'ordre d'1 mm.
  • Grâce à la pluralité de séries de nervures 4 en chevron régulièrement réparties sur la circonférence de la surface 3, le plot 1 selon l'invention s'avère présenter une capacité antidérapante nettement augmentée par rapport à un plot selon la technique antérieure.
  • L'invention a été décrite ci-dessus en référence à une forme de réalisation donnée à titre d'exemple. Il va de soi qu'elle n'est pas limitée à cette forme de réalisation mais qu'elle s'étend à toutes les autres formes de réalisation couvertes par les revendications ci-annexées.
