Description

Tapis de charge mobile glissant pour dispositif de chargement et déchargement de véhicules. Sliding mobile load mat for vehicle loading and unloading device.
Domaine technique de l'invention.Technical Field of the Invention
La présente invention concerne le chargement et le déchargement rapides des véhicules de transport de marchandises au moyen d'un tapis de charge déplacé en translation depuis un plancher de véhicule vers un plancher de quai de bâtiment et inversement du quai de bâtiment vers le véhicule de transport, grâce à des moyens de traction du tapis de charge motorisés.The present invention relates to the fast loading and unloading of freight vehicles by means of a load conveyor moved in translation from a vehicle floor to a building platform floor and vice versa from the building platform to the transport vehicle , thanks to traction means of the motorized load carpet.
Etat de la technique.State of the art
Le brevet européen EP 1 444 151 au nom du demandeur, décrit un dispositif de chargement et de déchargement d'un véhicule de transport routier à partir d'un quai pour le chargement ou vers un quai pour le déchargement, lesdits quai et véhicule comportant un plancher sur lesquels peut se déplacer par translation un tapis de charge avec son chargement susceptible d'être mû depuis le quai vers le véhicule pour le chargement grâce à des moyens de traction équipant le véhicule, tandis que ledit tapis de charge est déplacé du véhicule vers le quai pour le déchargement grâce à des moyens de traction équipant le quai.European patent EP 1 444 151 in the name of the applicant, describes a device for loading and unloading a road transport vehicle from a dock for loading or to a dock for unloading, said platform and vehicle comprising a floor on which can move a load conveyor with its load likely to be moved from the dock to the vehicle for loading by means of traction means equipping the vehicle, while said load carpet is moved from the vehicle to the dock for unloading by means of traction means equipping the dock.
Dans ce dispositif les planchers de véhicule et de quai sont en tôles d'acier planes et le tapis de charge est métallique constitué de maillons articulés entre eux et équipés de galets de roulement pour aider sa translation, par ailleurs facilité par un apport d'air comprimé. La motorisation du tapis de charge est assurée par un moteur hydraulique entraînant chaînes et pignons.In this device, the vehicle and platform floors are made of flat steel sheets and the load mat is made of metal links articulated between them and equipped with rollers to assist its translation, also facilitated by a supply of air compressed. The motorization of the load carpet is ensured by a hydraulic motor driving chains and gears.
Objet de l'invention.Object of the invention
L'invention a pour but de proposer une technologie plus simple et plus rationnelle d'un tapis de charge translatif et glissant susceptible de se déplacer d'un quai de bâtiment à l'intérieur d'un véhicule et vice versa d'un véhicule à l'intérieur d'un bâtiment sur des surfaces standards quelles qu'elles soient, par exemple en béton, en métal ou en matière synthétique, voire en bois du genre plancher de véhicule ou de quai, et de manière à offrir les meilleurs coefficients de glissement en translation.The aim of the invention is to propose a simpler and more rational technology for a translational and slippery load conveyor capable of moving from a building platform inside a vehicle and vice versa from a vehicle to a vehicle. the interior of a building on any standard surfaces, for example concrete, made of metal or synthetic material, or even wood of the floor type of vehicle or dock, and so as to offer the best coefficients of sliding in translation.
La translation du tapis de charge et son glissement sur les surfaces du véhicule et du quai sont assurés par des sangles plates en textile enroulées respectivement sur le moyeu de treuils électriques ou hydrauliques équipant l'un le véhicule, l'autre le quai et dont les critères correspondent à la charge embarquée.The translation of the load carpet and its sliding on the surfaces of the vehicle and the dock are provided by flat textile straps wound respectively on the hub of electric or hydraulic winches equipping one vehicle, the other the dock and whose criteria correspond to the embedded load.
Chaque extrémité du tapis de charge est fixée par pincement entre deux barres de seuil, supérieure et inférieure, situées en amont et en aval dudit tapis textile et servant à l'accrochage et au décrochage desdites sangles de traction équipées respectivement d'un système d'accrochage aux barres de seuil du tapis mobile.Each end of the load carpet is fixed by clamping between two upper and lower sill bars, located upstream and downstream of said textile mat and serving for hooking and unhooking said traction straps respectively equipped with a system of hanging at the threshold bars of the moving carpet.
Le guidage du tapis de charge est réalisé grâce à des glissières formées respectivement d'un coulisseau solidaire de la barre de seuil inférieure prévue à chaque extrémité du tapis de charge et susceptible de coulisser dans une rainure creusant les planchers du quai bâtiment et du véhicule dans leur axe médian et s'étendant d'un bord à l'autre dudit quai et dudit véhicule.The guiding of the load carpet is achieved by means of slides formed respectively of a slider secured to the lower threshold bar provided at each end of the load carpet and slidable in a groove digging the floors of the building and vehicle dock in their median axis and extending from one edge to the other of said platform and said vehicle.
Le tapis textile de charge, lors de ses translations du véhicule au quai de bâtiment et vice versa du véhicule au quai, subit très peu de contrainte, car en mode de chargement le véhicule se positionne en dessous du niveau du quai de bâtiment et en mode de déchargement le véhicule se positionne au-dessus du niveau du quai de bâtiment, et cela grâce à des cellules optiques prévues soit sur le bâtiment, soit sur le véhicule et donnant l'ordre à un automate du bâtiment ou embarqué sur le véhicule de gérer la hauteur de ce positionnement en agissant sur les pressions pneumatiques des suspensions du véhicule, le positionnement haut du véhicule s'effectuant par augmentation de la pression pneumatique des suspensions, tandis que le positionnement bas a lieu par diminution de cette même pression.The textile load carpet, during its translations from the vehicle to the building platform and vice versa from the vehicle to the platform, undergoes very little constraint, because in loading mode the vehicle is positioned below the level of the building platform and in unloading the vehicle is positioned above the level of the building platform, and this through optical cells provided either on the building or on the vehicle and giving the order to a building controller or on board the vehicle to manage the height of this positioning by acting on the pneumatic pressures of the vehicle suspensions, the high positioning of the vehicle being effected by increasing the pneumatic pressure of the suspensions, while the low positioning is effected by reducing this same pressure.
Plusieurs tapis, qu'ils soient chargés ou non, peuvent être mus en translation à l'intérieur d'un véhicule si celui-ci dispose de plusieurs planchers étages. On peut obtenir un alignement parfait du véhicule et du quai de bâtiment au moyen de caméras fixées respectivement à droite et à gauche du véhicule ou du quai de bâtiment et reliées, par un réseau "WiFi", à un écran autonome et amovible équipant la cabine de pilotage du véhicule.Several carpets, whether loaded or not, can be moved in translation inside a vehicle if it has several floors floors. A perfect alignment of the vehicle and the building platform can be achieved by means of cameras respectively attached to the right and left of the vehicle or the building platform and connected, by a "WiFi" network, to a removable and autonomous screen fitted to the cabin. driving the vehicle.
On peut aussi obtenir l'alignement parfait du véhicule et du quai de bâtiment au moyen d'une luge fixée sur la chaussée prolongeant le quai de bâtiment et de galets montés fous sur l'essieu ou les essieux du véhicule et munis de joues latérales permettant aux essieux de se centrer de manière mécanique et d'aligner le véhicule au quai de bâtiment équipé de cette luge. Néanmoins, la faible hauteur de la luge et le petit diamètre des galets à joues permettent aussi aux véhicules non équipés de tapis de charge glissant d'échapper à ces moyens de centrage de sorte qu'ils peuvent ainsi charger ou décharger leur marchandise de manière classique.It is also possible to obtain the perfect alignment of the vehicle and the building platform by means of a sledge fixed on the roadway extending the platform of building and idlers mounted idle on the axle or axles of the vehicle and provided with lateral flanges allowing the axles to mechanically center and align the vehicle with the building dock equipped with this sled. Nevertheless, the low height of the sled and the small diameter of the cheek rollers also allow the vehicles not equipped with sliding load tread to escape these means of centering so that they can thus load or unload their goods in a conventional manner .

Comme l'illustrent les figures 1 et 2 des dessins, le dispositif selon l'invention consiste en un tapis de charge 1 mobile et glissant relié par ses extrémités à des sangles plates de traction 4, par exemple en textile, mais non exclusivement, enroulées sur le tambour de treuils motorisés 5 équipant le plancher de bâtiment 11 et le plancher de véhicule 12. Le tapis de charge 1 peut être, par exemple mais non exclusivement, en matière textile armée tressée dont les faces sont recouvertes de caoutchouc. Il est de forme rectangulaire dont la longueur et la largeur ont sensiblement les dimensions de tout ou partie du plancher de véhicule 12.As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawings, the device according to the invention consists of a mobile and sliding load mat 1 connected at its ends to flat traction straps 4, for example of textile, but not exclusively, wound on the drum of powered winches 5 equipping the building floor 11 and the vehicle floor 12. The load carpet 1 may be, for example but not exclusively, braided textile fabric whose faces are covered with rubber. It is of rectangular shape whose length and width have substantially the dimensions of all or part of the vehicle floor 12.
Comme le montre la figure 3, chaque extrémité du tapis de charge 1 est pincée entre les deux parties, supérieure 6 et inférieure 7, d'une barre de seuil 2 servant à l'amarrage des sangles 4 au moyen de systèmes d'accrochage sécurisés 3 (figure 1), les deux éléments 6,7 étant associés au moyen de vis de serrage 8.As shown in Figure 3, each end of the load carpet 1 is clamped between the two parts, upper 6 and lower 7, a threshold bar 2 for docking the straps 4 by means of secure fastening systems 3 (FIG. 1), the two elements 6, 7 being associated by means of clamping screws 8.
Les figures 4 et 5 représentent le moyen de guidage et de centrage du tapis de charge 1. Le plancher de quai de bâtiment 11 et le plancher de véhicule 12 comportent chacun dans son axe médian une glissière 10 dans la rainure de laquelle peut s'inclure un coulisseau 9 rendu solidaire de l'élément inférieur 7 des barres de seuil 2. Comme l'illustre la figure 4, les deux glissières 10 du plancher de bâtiment 11 respectivement du plancher de véhicule 12 s'étendent dans le prolongement l'une de l'autre pour former, de part et d'autre de la ligne de jonction 13 entre bâtiment et véhicule, un rail de guidage des coulisseaux 9 des barres de seuil 2.Figures 4 and 5 show the guiding and centering means of the load carpet 1. The building platform floor 11 and the vehicle floor 12 each comprise in its median axis a slideway 10 in the groove of which can include a slide 9 made integral with the lower element 7 of the threshold bars 2. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the two rails 10 of the building floor 11 respectively of the vehicle floor 12 extend in line with each other. the other to form, on either side of the junction line 13 between the building and the vehicle, a guide rail of the sliders 9 of the threshold bars 2.
Sur les figures 6 et 7, on a représenté un moyen d'alignement du véhicule 12 et du quai 16 de bâtiment, réalisé par une luge 14 fixée sur la chaussée 15 servant de guidage à des galets 19 montés libres sur les essieux 18 des roues 17 du véhicule. Grâce à leurs joues 20, les galets 19 se centrent mécaniquement sur la luge et déterminent automatiquement l'alignement du véhicule par rapport au quai 16 de bâtiment contre lequel il s'adosse. Les véhicules non équipés de tapis de charge selon l'invention peuvent néanmoins charger et décharger leur marchandise car la faible hauteur de la luge permet aux essieux desdits véhicules d'y échapper.Figures 6 and 7, there is shown a means of alignment of the vehicle 12 and the platform 16 of the building, made by a sledge 14 fixed on the road 15 serving to guide the rollers 19 mounted free on the axles 18 wheels 17 of the vehicle. With their cheeks 20, the rollers 19 are mechanically centered on the sled and automatically determine the alignment of the vehicle with respect to the platform 16 of the building against which it leans. Vehicles not equipped with cargo mats according to the invention can nevertheless load and unload their goods because the low height of the sled allows the axles of said vehicles to escape.
On peut aussi obtenir l'alignement du véhicule et du bâtiment au moyen de caméras fixées à droite et à gauche du bâtiment ou sur le véhicule et communiquant par un réseau "wiFi" autonome et amovible prévu à l'intérieur de la cabine de pilotage du véhicule. On comprend aisément le fonctionnement du dispositif de chargement et de déchargement des marchandises selon l'invention. Sous l'effet des moyens de traction des sangles 4 mues par le treuil motorisé coté bâtiment, soit par le treuil motorisé coté véhicule, le tapis mobile 1 se déplace par simple glissement translatif sur les surfaces que constituent les planchers de quai de bâtiment 11 et de véhicule 12.It is also possible to obtain the alignment of the vehicle and the building by means of cameras fixed to the right and left of the building or on the vehicle and communicating via a "wiFi" autonomous and removable network provided inside the cockpit of the vehicle. vehicle. It is easy to understand the operation of the device for loading and unloading goods according to the invention. Under the effect of the traction means of the straps 4 moved by the motorized winch on the building side, or by the motorized winch on the vehicle side, the moving carpet 1 moves by simple translational sliding on the surfaces that constitute the building platform floors 11 and of vehicle 12.
Le glissement du tapis de charge 1 subit très peu de contrainte, car en mode de chargement le véhicule se positionne en dessous du niveau du quai 16 de bâtiment, alors qu'en mode de déchargement le véhicule se positionne au-dessus du niveau dudit quai de bâtiment. A et effet, des cellules optiques prévues soit sur le bâtiment, soit sur le véhicule, donnent l'ordre à un automate du bâtiment ou embarqué sur le véhicule de gérer cette hauteur et se positionnement en agissant sur les pressions pneumatiques des suspensions du véhicule. Le positionnement haut a lieu par augmentation de la pression pneumatique des suspensions, alors que le positionnement bas du véhicule s'effectue par la diminution de cette pression.The slippage of the load carpet 1 undergoes very little constraint, because in loading mode the vehicle is positioned below the level of the platform 16 of the building, while in unloading mode the vehicle is positioned above the level of said dock of building. A and indeed, optical cells provided either on the building or on the vehicle, give the order to a building controller or on board the vehicle to manage this height and is positioned by acting on the pneumatic pressures of the vehicle suspensions. The high positioning takes place by increasing the pneumatic pressure of the suspensions, while the low positioning of the vehicle is effected by the decrease of this pressure.
Plusieurs dispositifs de sécurité pour l'accrochage des sangles au tapis de charge notamment, et pour l'enroulement et le déroulement desdites sangles de traction depuis les treuils motorisés sont possibles sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Several safety devices for attaching the straps to the load carpet in particular, and for winding and unwinding of said pull straps from motorized winches are possible without departing from the scope of the invention.
De même, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et représentés à titre d'exemple, mais elle comprend aussi tous les équivalents techniques ainsi que leurs combinaisons. Likewise, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and represented by way of example, but it also includes all the technical equivalents as well as their combinations.
