Description
L'invention concerne un porte-étiquette à rapporter sur un appareillage électrique de type disjoncteur par exemple ou une rangée de tels appareillages ou un boîtier de tableau électrique, pour maintenir au moins une étiquette afin d'indiquer à un usager la destination des appareillages.The invention relates to a label holder to report on a circuit breaker type of electrical equipment for example or a row of such equipment or a switchboard box, to maintain at least one label to indicate to a user the destination of the equipment.
L'invention porte également sur un agencement comprenant un tel porte-étiquette et au moins une étiquette maintenue par le porte-étiquette.The invention also relates to an arrangement comprising such a label holder and at least one label held by the label holder.
Une première technique connue consiste à rapporter des portes-étiquettes individuels sur la face avant de chacun des appareillages électriques, les porte-étiquettes étant de très petites dimensions et conçus pour maintenir des étiquettes généralement trop petites pour comporter l'ensemble des informations désirées, difficiles à manipuler et à annoter et parfois à lire. En particulier, chacun des porte-étiquettes peut comprendre une base à fixer sur l'appareillage et un couvercle transparent entre lesquels une étiquette est rapportée, mais le maintien de l'étiquette cesse à l'ouverture du porte-étiquette, ce qui n'est pas pratique à l'usage avec un risque de détérioration ou de perte de l'étiquette. Les difficultés de lecture de l'étiquette sont souvent renforcées par la présence récurrente d'une articulation du couvercle sur la base au niveau d'une zone visible du couvercle. Tous ces problèmes rendent fastidieux voire impossible une personnalisation des appareillages dans les tableaux électriques.A first known technique is to report individual tags on the front face of each of the electrical equipment, the label holders being very small and designed to maintain labels generally too small to include all the desired information, difficult to manipulate and annotate and sometimes to read. In particular, each of the label holders may comprise a base to be fixed on the apparatus and a transparent cover between which a label is attached, but the maintenance of the label stops when the label holder is opened, which does not is not practical to use with a risk of deterioration or loss of the label. The difficulties of reading the label are often reinforced by the recurrent presence of a hinge of the lid on the base at a visible area of the lid. All these problems make it tedious or impossible to customize the equipment in the electrical panels.

Chacune des bandes comprend un élément de maintien d'étiquette, les éléments de maintien d'étiquette étant configurés pour assurer une fixation d'une étiquette sur le porte-étiquette 10 quelle que soit la position du porte-étiquette, dans une configuration telle que chaque bande du porte-étiquette accueille au moins une partie d'étiquette.A common feature of the five embodiments of
Plus précisément, les deux premiers modes de réalisation comprennent deux bandes 11, 12 articulées l'une sur l'autre par un de leurs bords longitudinaux. Autrement dit, l'un 13 des deux bords longitudinaux 13, 14 de la bande 11 est articulé à l'un 15 des deux bords longitudinaux 15, 16 de l'autre bande 12. Avantageusement, au moins l'une des bandes 11, 12 est transparente à la lumière, pour permettre de lire depuis l'extérieur du porte-étiquette des informations inscrites sur au moins une étiquette 17 par exemple illustrée sur les
Ainsi, la bande 11 comprend un premier élément de maintien conçu pour toute ou partie d'une fixation d'au moins une étiquette 17 dans le porte-étiquette 10. Il en est de même pour la bande 12, avec un deuxième élément de maintien conçu pour toute ou partie d'une fixation d'au moins une étiquette 17 dans le porte-étiquette 10. Chacun des premier et deuxième éléments de maintien est configuré de sorte que la fixation de l'étiquette 17 avec laquelle il coopère perdure même en position ouverte du porte-étiquette 10. Ainsi le porte-étiquette est facile à manipuler et l'étiquette imperdable. Il est possible de prévoir que le premier élément de maintien équipant la bande 11 assure la fixation d'une première étiquette et que le deuxième élément de maintien équipant la bande 12 assure la fixation d'une autre étiquette.Thus, the
Avantageusement toutefois et comme illustré sur les
Il résulte de ce qui précède que le porte-étiquette permet la lecture des informations présentes sur une première partie 22 de l'étiquette lorsque le porte-étiquette 10 est en position fermée. Il permet en outre la lecture des informations présentes sur deux autres parties 23, 24 de l'étiquette lorsqu'il est en position ouverte. Ces dispositions ont pour avantage de permettre d'indiquer un grand nombre d'informations à destination de l'utilisateur, sans pour autant avoir des difficultés de lecture, malgré une largeur du porte-étiquette avantageusement très réduite, par exemple suffisamment pour pouvoir le rapporter sur un appareillage électrique 33 ou une rangée de tels appareillages électriques 33 (

En complément, les bandes 11, 12 comprennent des éléments de fermeture du porte-étiquette 10 en position fermée, notamment par encliquetage. À titre d'exemple, la bande 12 peut être pourvue d'une gorge 29 qui court le long du bord longitudinal 16 libre, prévue pour coopérer par encliquetage réversible avec un bourrelet 30 qui court le long du bord longitudinal 14 libre de l'autre bande 11. Une disposition inversée de la gorge 29 et du bourrelet 30 peut être prévue sur les bandes 11, 12.In addition, the
De plus, l'une 12 des bandes 11, 12 comprend, sur une face externe, sur toute ou partie de sa longueur, un élément de solidarisation à un objet extérieur comme un appareillage électrique 33, une rangée d'appareillages électriques 33 ou un boîtier de tableau électrique, notamment une bande adhésive 31 potentiellement recouverte d'une protection pelable au moment de sa mise en oeuvre. Des moyens mécaniques peuvent toutefois être prévus pour un montage mécanique du porte-étiquette sur l'(les) appareillage(s).In addition, one of the
Par ailleurs, l'une 12 des bandes 11, 12 comprend, sur une face externe, sur toute ou partie de sa longueur, un élément de positionnement du porte-étiquette 10 par rapport à un appareillage électrique 33 ou une rangée d'appareillages électriques 33 ou à un boîtier (
Avantageusement, sur au moins une partie de sa longueur, le bord longitudinal 14 libre de l'une 11 des bandes 11, 12 comprend une excroissance 34 configurée pour constituer une loupe pour un faisceau de rayons de lumière traversant la matière de l'excroissance 34, provenant par exemple d'un indicateur de déclenchement de l'appareillage sous-jacent.Advantageously, over at least a part of its length, the free

Dans les trois dernières variantes, les rainures 26 peuvent être remplacées ou utilisées en combinaison avec des éléments adhésifs 25 aménagés sur des faces internes des bandes 35 à 43 mises en oeuvre.In the last three variants, the
L'invention porte ainsi également sur un agencement à rapporter sur un appareillage électrique 33 ou une rangée d'appareillages électriques 33 ou un boîtier, comprenant un porte-étiquette 10 tel que mentionné ci-dessus et au moins une étiquette 17 fixée sur le porte-étiquette par les éléments de maintien que comprennent deux bandes 11, 12 du porte-étiquette.The invention thus also relates to an arrangement to report on an
La solution décrite précédemment présente les fonctionnements et avantages suivants :
- le porte-étiquette peut être découpé à la longueur souhaitée, et peut être vendu au mètre,
- le porte-étiquette s'ouvre à l'aide des éléments intégrés de fermeture en au moins deux portions,
- chaque portion permet de maintenir en place une étiquette pliée en plusieurs parties ou plusieurs étiquettes de papier ou cartonnées,
- ces étiquettes ou parties d'étiquette permettent l'affichage de plusieurs niveaux d'informations en regard des appareillages sur lesquels le porte-étiquette peut être rapporté,
- le porte-étiquette peut être commun à toute une rangée d'appareillages,
- le porte-étiquette peut venir se rapporter par exemple par collage en face frontale des appareillages électriques à l'endroit prévu pour une étiquette autocollante individuelle classique, tout en permettant un affichage important d'informations,
- il peut être décollé et échangé par un nouveau porte-étiquette lors d'une modification d'installation, le rendant consommable au même titre que l'étiquette,
- le porte-étiquette ne présente pas de charnière qui empiète sur l'espace utile à la lecture des informations,
- chaque bande du porte-étiquette est munie à l'intérieur d'un élément de maintien de type accroche ou adhésif, ce qui permet de maintenir l'étiquette sur les bandes même lorsque le porte-étiquette est en position ouverte,
- l'agencement permet de proposer plusieurs niveaux d'informations dans un même porte-étiquette : un niveau d'information lorsque le porte-étiquette est fermé qui correspond à une partie de l'étiquette et, un niveau, deux niveaux ou plus (selon les variantes de porte-étiquette) d'information lorsque le porte-étiquette est ouvert,
- l'étiquette est facile à éditer ou à annoter puis à positionner dans le porte-étiquette : tous les niveaux d'information d'une étiquette peuvent situés sur une même face. Ceci facilite l'annotation ou l'édition et l'impression de l'étiquette à l'aide d'un logiciel dédié. Des étiquettes type pourront être imprimées sur du papier prédécoupé ou bien découpées directement par un outil coupant de type massicot. Alternativement, des niveaux d'information différents peuvent être situés sur un recto et un verso. Le papier à imprimer sera prédécoupé dans la longueur et le logiciel imprimera les étiquettes en conséquence. Les étiquettes peuvent être particularisées,
- l'étiquette est d'un seul tenant et donc facile à manipuler,
- la manipulation d'une seule étiquette donne accès à plusieurs niveaux d'information,
- l'étiquette peut être pliée facilement au bon endroit : les galbes permettent de plier facilement l'étiquette lorsqu'on la positionne dans le porte-étiquette et qu'on le met en position fermée. Dans le cas d'une pliure de la face avant de l'étiquette, il suffit de maintenir le reste de l'étiquette fermement sur l'autre bande pendant que l'on ferme le porte-étiquette. Le papier à impression d'étiquette n'a pas forcément besoin d'être pré-plié,
- lorsque le porte étiquette est en position fermée, il peut être réservé un espace de quelques millimètres entre les deux bandes pour pouvoir faire place aux épaisseurs de l'étiquette pliée,
- grâce à l'excroissance 34 concave, un voyant de l'appareillage est particulièrement lisible,
- le porte-étiquette peut être positionné exactement au bon endroit avec l'élément de positionnement 32,
- le principe du porte-étiquette peut se décliner en plusieurs types d'ouvertures (type accordéon, livre ou escargot).
- the label holder can be cut to the desired length, and can be sold by the meter,
- the label holder opens with the integrated closure elements in at least two portions,
- each portion makes it possible to hold in place a folded label in several parts or several labels of paper or cardboard,
- these labels or parts of the label allow the display of several levels of information with regard to the apparatus on which the label holder can be attached,
- the label holder can be common to a whole row of devices,
- the label holder can be related for example by gluing the electrical apparatus at the location provided for a conventional individual adhesive label, while allowing an important display of information,
- it can be taken off and exchanged by a new label holder during an installation modification, making it consumable just like the label,
- the label holder does not have a hinge which encroaches on the useful space when reading the information,
- each band of the label holder is provided inside a hook-and-hold type holding element, which makes it possible to keep the label on the strips even when the label holder is in the open position,
- the arrangement makes it possible to propose several levels of information in the same label holder: a level of information when the label holder is closed which corresponds to a part of the label and, a level, two levels or more (according to the label holder variants) of information when the label holder is open,
- the label is easy to edit or annotate and then to position in the label holder: all the information levels of a label can be located on the same face. This makes it easy to annotate or edit and print the label using dedicated software. Typical labels may be printed on pre-cut paper or cut directly by a cutter-type cutting tool. Alternatively, Different information levels can be located on a front and back. The paper to be printed will be pre-cut in length and the software will print the labels accordingly. The labels can be particularized,
- the label is in one piece and therefore easy to handle,
- the manipulation of a single label gives access to several levels of information,
- the label can be folded easily in the right place: the curves allow to easily fold the label when it is positioned in the label holder and it is put in the closed position. In the case of a fold of the front face of the label, simply hold the rest of the label firmly on the other band while closing the label holder. The label-printing paper does not need to be pre-folded,
- when the label holder is in the closed position, it can be reserved a space of a few millimeters between the two strips in order to make room for the thicknesses of the folded label,
- thanks to the
concave protrusion 34, a light of the apparatus is particularly legible, - the label holder can be positioned exactly in the right place with the
positioning element 32, - the principle of the label holder can be declined in several types of openings (accordion type, book or snail).
