Sur la figure 1 est montré un ensemble selon l'invention, désigné par la référence générale 2. L'ensemble 2 comprend un dispositif de voirie 4 et un outil 6.On the figure 1 is shown an assembly according to the invention, designated by the general reference 2. The assembly 2 comprises a road device 4 and a tool 6.

Le dispositif de voirie 4 comprend un couvercle 8 et un cadre 10. Le couvercle et le cadre définissent un côté extérieur E et un côté intérieur I. Le côté extérieur est dirigé à l'état monté généralement vers le haut et le côté intérieur est dirigé vers l'ouvrage souterrain à recouvrir, tel qu'un puits d'inspection.The road device 4 comprises a cover 8 and a frame 10. The cover and the frame define an outer side E and an inner side I. The outer side is directed to the mounted state generally upwards and the inner side is directed to the underground structure to be covered, such as an inspection well.

L'ensemble 2 comprend un élément du dispositif de voirie 12 comprenant un corps de base 14, qui est en l'occurrence le couvercle 8, et une barrette de verrouillage 16. La barrette de verrouillage 16 est disposée du côté intérieur I et est mobile par rapport au corps de base 14 entre une position de verrouillage du corps de base 14 et une position de libération du corps de base 14. Le corps de base 14 a un axe central Y-Y.The assembly 2 comprises an element of the road device 12 comprising a base body 14, which is in this case the cover 8, and a locking bar 16. The locking bar 16 is disposed on the inner side I and is movable relative to the base body 14 between a locking position of the base body 14 and a release position of the base body 14. The base body 14 has a central axis YY.

En l'occurrence, dans la position de verrouillage, représentée à la figure 1, la barrette de verrouillage 16 s'étend par-dessous d'un rebord 17 du cadre 10 et empêche ainsi le déplacement du couvercle 8 vers sa position ouverte. Dans la position de libération, la barrette de verrouillage 16 est dégagée par rapport au rebord 17 et ne s'oppose pas à l'ouverture ou à la fermeture du couvercle 8. A cet effet, la barrette de verrouillage 16 est logée en rotation autour d'un axe de rotation X-X entre ses positions de verrouillage et de libération.In this case, in the locking position, shown in FIG. figure 1 , the locking bar 16 extends below a flange 17 of the frame 10 and thus prevents the displacement of the cover 8 to its open position. In the release position, the locking bar 16 is disengaged with respect to the flange 17 and does not oppose the opening or closing of the cover 8. For this purpose, the locking bar 16 is housed in rotation around an axis of rotation XX between its locking and release positions.

L'ensemble 2 comprend également des moyens d'actionnement 18 adaptés pour déplacer la barrette de verrouillage 16 entre ses positions de verrouillage et de libération. Les moyens d'actionnement 18 comprennent une vis 20 fixée en rotation autour de l'axe X-X à la barrette de verrouillage 16. A cet effet, la tige de la vis 20 présente un profil à section non-circulaire, par exemple ayant des méplats, et la barrette de verrouillage 16 comporte un orifice de réception de la vis 20, cet orifice formant une ouverture traversante dont le profil est sensiblement identique au profil à section non-circulaire de la tige de vis. La vis 20 comporte une tête de vis formant une tête d'actionnement 22. La tête d'actionnement 22 est disposée du côté extérieur E du corps de base 14.The assembly 2 also comprises actuating means 18 adapted to move the locking bar 16 between its locking and release positions. The actuating means 18 comprise a screw 20 fixed in rotation about the axis XX to the locking bar 16. For this purpose, the rod of the screw 20 has a non-circular section profile, for example having flats , and the locking bar 16 has a receiving hole of the screw 20, this orifice forming a through opening whose profile is substantially identical to the non-circular section profile of the screw rod. The screw 20 comprises a screw head forming an actuating head 22. The actuating head 22 is disposed on the outer side E of the base body 14.

La barrette de verrouillage 16 est maintenue sur la vis 20 au moyen d'un écrou 24 et d'une rondelle 26 disposés du côté intérieur I par rapport à la barrette de verrouillage 16. La rondelle 26 est en matière rigide, par exemple en métal.The locking bar 16 is held on the screw 20 by means of a nut 24 and a washer 26 arranged on the inner side I relative to the locking bar 16. The washer 26 is made of rigid material, for example metal .

L'ensemble 2 comprend également des moyens de blocage 30 de la barrette de verrouillage 16 dans une configuration de blocage. Dans la configuration de blocage, les moyens de blocage 30 s'opposent à un déplacement de la barrette de verrouillage 16 de sa position de verrouillage vers ou dans sa position de libération. En l'occurrence, les moyens de blocage 30 comprennent deux butées de blocage 32 disposées sur le corps de base 14. Chaque butée de blocage 32 coopère avec une surface latérale 34 de la barrette de verrouillage 16 afin de bloquer la barrette de verrouillage 16 en empêchant sa rotation. Chaque butée de blocage 32 a une hauteur de quelques millimètres.The assembly 2 also comprises locking means 30 of the locking bar 16 in a locking configuration. In the locking configuration, the locking means 30 oppose a movement of the locking bar 16 from its locking position to or in its release position. In this case, the blocking means 30 comprise two locking stops 32 disposed on the base body 14. Each locking abutment 32 cooperates with a lateral surface 34 of the locking bar 16 in order to lock the locking bar 16 in place. preventing its rotation. Each locking stop 32 has a height of a few millimeters.

L'élément 2 comprend également deux butées de libération 36 définissant la position de libération de la barrette de verrouillage 16. Chaque butée de libération 36 est associée à une butée de blocage 32 à laquelle elle est reliée par une came 38.The element 2 also comprises two release stops 36 defining the release position of the locking bar 16. Each release stop 36 is associated with a locking stop 32 to which it is connected by a cam 38.

Dans cette position de libération, les surfaces latérales 34 de la barrette de verrouillage 16 coopèrent avec les butées de libération 36. En l'occurrence dans le mode de réalisation décrit, dans la position de libération la barrette de verrouillage 16 est décalée d'un angle d'environ 90° par rapport à sa position de verrouillage.In this release position, the lateral surfaces 34 of the locking bar 16 cooperate with the release stops 36. In this case, in the embodiment described, in the release position, the locking bar 16 is shifted by one angle of about 90 ° with respect to its locking position.

L'ensemble 2 comprend également des moyens de poussée 40 qui sollicitent élastiquement la barrette de verrouillage 16 dans sa configuration de blocage. Ces moyens de poussée 40 sont adaptés pour permettre, sous l'action d'un effort de déblocage, un déplacement de la barrette de verrouillage dans une configuration de déblocage dans laquelle les moyens de blocage 30 ne s'opposent plus à un déplacement de la barrette de verrouillage vers ou dans sa position de libération.The assembly 2 also comprises thrust means 40 which resiliently urge the locking bar 16 in its locking configuration. These thrust means 40 are adapted to allow, under the action of a release force, a displacement of the locking bar in an unlocking configuration in which the locking means 30 no longer oppose a movement of the locking bar to or in its release position.

Le passage de la barrette de verrouillage 16 de sa configuration de blocage vers sa configuration de déblocage est effectué par une translation de la barrette de verrouillage 16 le long de l'axe X-X entre d'une part la position où les surfaces latérales 34 chevauchent axialement les butées de blocage 32 et peuvent s'appliquer contre les butées de blocage 32 et d'autre part la position dans la laquelle les surfaces latérales 34 sont dégagées des butées de blocage 32. Cette translation est dirigée vers le côté intérieur I.The passage of the locking bar 16 from its locking configuration to its unlocking configuration is effected by a translation of the locking bar 16 along the axis XX between firstly the position where the lateral surfaces 34 overlap axially. the locking abutments 32 and can be applied against the locking abutments 32 and secondly the position in which the lateral surfaces 34 are disengaged blocking stops 32. This translation is directed towards the inner side I.

La force de déblocage est exercée sur les moyens de poussée 40.The unlocking force is exerted on the thrust means 40.

La force de déblocage devant être appliquée afin de déplacer la barrette de verrouillage 16 dans sa configuration de déblocage et ceci à l'encontre de la force de poussée des moyens de poussée 40 est selon l'invention comprise entre 500 newtons (N) et 5000 newtons (N) (correspondant à environ 50 kg et environ 500 kg), notamment entre 800 newtons (N) et 2500 newtons (N) et en particulier entre 1000 newtons (N) et 2500 newtons (N).The unlocking force to be applied in order to move the locking bar 16 in its unlocking configuration and this against the thrust force of the thrust means 40 is according to the invention between 500 newtons (N) and 5000 newtons (N) (corresponding to about 50 kg and about 500 kg), especially between 800 newtons (N) and 2500 newtons (N) and in particular between 1000 newtons (N) and 2500 newtons (N).

En l'occurrence, les moyens de poussée 40 comprennent un élément élastiquement déformable 42 qui est en l'occurrence une rondelle en une matière élastique telle que du caoutchouc ou une autre matière élastomère, ou encore un ressort. L'élément élastiquement déformable 42 est disposé sur la tige de la vis 20.In this case, the thrust means 40 comprise an elastically deformable element 42 which is in this case a washer of an elastic material such as rubber or other elastomeric material, or a spring. The elastically deformable element 42 is disposed on the rod of the screw 20.

Une rondelle d'appui 44 est disposée entre la tête de vis 22 et l'élément élastiquement déformable 42. Comme ceci est visible sur la figure 3, les moyens de poussée 40 sont donc disposés entre la tête de vis 22 et le corps de base 14.A bearing washer 44 is disposed between the screw head 22 and the elastically deformable element 42. As can be seen on the figure 3 , the thrust means 40 are therefore arranged between the screw head 22 and the base body 14.

En se référant de nouveau à la figure 1 ou à la figure 6, le corps de base 14 comprend un évidement 46 non circulaire. L'évidement 46 est ouvert vers le côté extérieur E et délimite une surface d'appui 48 dirigée vers le côté intérieur I. L'évidement 46 est par exemple oblong et, en l'occurrence, radialement ouvert par rapport à l'axe central Y-Y du corps de base. L'évidement 46 peut également être radialement fermé par rapport à l'axe central Y-Y.Referring again to the figure 1 or at figure 6 the base body 14 comprises a non-circular recess 46. The recess 46 is open towards the outer side E and delimits a bearing surface 48 directed towards the inner side I. The recess 46 is for example oblong and, in this case, radially open relative to the central axis YY of the basic body. The recess 46 may also be radially closed with respect to the central axis YY.

L'outil 6 comprend un levier 50 et une clé d'actionnement 52. La clé 52 est adaptée pour coopérer avec la tête d'actionnement 22 et est complémentaire de cette tête.The tool 6 comprises a lever 50 and an operating key 52. The key 52 is adapted to cooperate with the actuating head 22 and is complementary to this head.

De préférence, la tête d'actionnement 22 a une section pentagonale et la clé d'actionnement 52 a également un profil creux pentagonal.Preferably, the actuating head 22 has a pentagonal section and the actuating key 52 also has a pentagonal hollow profile.

Le levier 50 comprend un plot d'appui 54 adapté pour appliquer une force d'appui sur les moyens de poussée 40. En l'occurrence, le plot d'appui 54 peut s'appliquer sur la tête d'actionnement 22 et, par l'intermédiaire de la tête d'actionnement 22 et la rondelle d'appui 44, sur les moyens de poussée 40.The lever 50 comprises a bearing stud 54 adapted to apply a pressing force on the thrust means 40. In this case, the bearing stud 54 can be applied to the actuating head 22 and, by via the actuating head 22 and the support washer 44, on the thrust means 40.

Le levier 50 comprend une excroissance 56 dont l'extrémité libre a une forme sensiblement identique à celle de l'évidement 46 pour une liaison par complémentarité de formes. L'excroissance 56 peut ainsi adopter une configuration de retenue dans laquelle son extrémité libre est engagée et retenue dans l'évidement 46, notamment par une liaison de type baïonnette, et une configuration de libération dans laquelle son extrémité libre est retirable de l'évidement 46 ou insérable dans celui-ci.The lever 50 comprises an outgrowth 56 whose free end has a shape substantially identical to that of the recess 46 for a connection by complementarity of shapes. The protrusion 56 can thus adopt a retaining configuration in which its free end is engaged and retained in the recess 46, in particular by a bayonet type connection, and a release configuration in which its free end is removable from the recess 46 or insertable therein.

Dans la configuration de retenue, l'extrémité libre de l'excroissance 56 est adaptée pour prendre appui sur la surface d'appui 48 lorsque le plot d'appui 54 applique la force d'appui contre les moyens de poussée 40.In the retaining configuration, the free end of the protrusion 56 is adapted to bear on the bearing surface 48 when the bearing pad 54 applies the bearing force against the thrust means 40.

Le levier 50 comprend une poignée 58.The lever 50 comprises a handle 58.

Par ailleurs, la clé d'actionnement 52 est reliée au plot d'appui 54 d'une manière mobile en rotation autour de l'axe X-X mais est bloquée en translation le long de cet axe de rotation X-X, permettant ainsi de pivoter la barrette de verrouillage 16 autour de l'axe X-X entre les positions de verrouillage et de libération.Moreover, the actuating key 52 is connected to the bearing pad 54 in a manner that is rotatable about the axis XX but is locked in translation along this axis of rotation XX, thereby enabling the bar to be pivoted. 16 about the XX axis between the locking and release positions.

L'élément fonctionne de la manière suivante.The element works as follows.

On part de la situation montrée sur la figure 1, la barrette de verrouillage 16 étant dans sa position de verrouillage et dans la configuration de blocage. Dans cette position, la barrette de verrouillage 16 s'applique contre le corps de base 14 et chevauche axialement les butées de blocage 32 contre lesquelles les surfaces latérales 34 de la barrette 16 s'appliquent. L'excroissance 56 du levier 50 a son extrémité libre engagée et retenue dans l'évidement 46 et la clé 52 coopère avec la tête d'actionnement 22.We start from the situation shown on the figure 1 , the locking bar 16 being in its locking position and in the locking configuration. In this position, the locking bar 16 is applied against the base body 14 and axially overlaps the locking stops 32 against which the side surfaces 34 of the bar 16 apply. The protrusion 56 of the lever 50 has its free end engaged and retained in the recess 46 and the key 52 cooperates with the actuating head 22.

Tout d'abord, l'utilisateur appuie sur la poignée 58 du levier 50 et pousse la poignée vers le corps de base 14. En conséquence, tout d'abord l'extrémité libre de l'excroissance 56 s'applique contre la surface d'appui 48 et ensuite, par compression de l'élément élastiquement déformable 42 sous l'action du plot d'appui 54, la vis 20 et la barrette de verrouillage 16 se déplacent le long de l'axe X-X vers le côté intérieur I. Ce déplacement se fait à l'encontre de la poussée des moyens de poussée 40.First, the user presses the handle 58 of the lever 50 and pushes the handle towards the base body 14. Consequently, firstly the free end of the protrusion 56 is applied against the surface of the body. support 48 and then, by compression of the elastically deformable element 42 under the action of the bearing pad 54, the screw 20 and the locking bar 16 move along the axis XX to the inner side I. This displacement is done against the thrust of the thrust means 40.

Lorsque la force appliquée sur la poignée est suffisamment importante pour atteindre la force de déblocage, la barrette de verrouillage 16 prend sa position de déblocage dans laquelle elle est axialement à l'écart des butées de blocage 32. Dans cette configuration, les butées de blocage 32 ne s'opposent pas à une rotation de la barrette de verrouillage 16 vers sa position de libération. Cette position est montrée sur la figure 4.When the force applied on the handle is large enough to reach the unlocking force, the locking bar 16 takes its unlocking position in which it is axially away from the locking abutments 32. In this configuration, the blocking stops 32 do not oppose a rotation of the locking bar 16 to its release position. This position is shown on the figure 4 .

Ensuite, tout en maintenant la pression sur les moyens de poussée 40, l'utilisateur tourne la clé 52 autour de l'axe X-X, amenant ainsi la barrette de verrouillage 16 dans sa position de libération. Cette position est montrée sur la figure 5.Then, while maintaining the pressure on the thrust means 40, the user turns the key 52 around the axis XX, thus bringing the locking bar 16 into its release position. This position is shown on the figure 5 .

Le verrouillage est effectué en sens inverse des étapes précitées.The locking is performed in the opposite direction of the aforementioned steps.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement simple étant donné que les moyens de poussée 40 peuvent être simplement constitués par un élément élastiquement déformable 42.The device according to the invention is particularly simple since the thrust means 40 may simply consist of an elastically deformable element 42.

Le dispositif est également difficile à déverrouiller par une personne non habilitée étant donné que la force à appliquer sur les moyens de poussée 40 est tellement importante que sans le levier 50, uniquement avec la clé 52, les moyens de poussée 40 ne sont pas franchis.The device is also difficult to unlock by an unauthorized person since the force to be applied on the thrust means 40 is so important that without the lever 50, only with the key 52, the thrust means 40 are not crossed.
