Definitions

  • the attachment device of the invention can combine the functions of antitheft and electronic information carrier.
  • an anti-theft device for spectacles comprising a body on which is mounted a flap hinged, the body and the flap each comprising a substantially flat surface, the flap being rotatable relative to the body between a first open end position, and a second extreme position said closed where the two respective surfaces are able to pinch the object, but which does not show a pinching surface of the body and / or the flap provided with elastically deformable means in relief or projection.
  • the patent EP0396850 discloses an anti-theft device for spectacles, comprising a body on which is mounted hinged a flap, the body and the flap each comprising a substantially flat surface, the flap being rotatable relative to the body between a first open end position, and a second end position said closed where the two respective surfaces are able to pinch the object.
  • the surfaces rectangular internal pinching, elastically deformable are flat and do not have raised shapes.
  • the elastic deformation by pressure of said means on said object contributes to the optimal maintenance of the latter without risk of damaging it.
  • locking means comprise indentations arranged on a tongue of the flap transverse to the gripping surface, and notches arranged in a housing (cavity) associated with the body, the indentations being intended to cooperate with the notches by locking in the closed position of the device.
  • the notches are integral with a moving part for their dissociation of the indentations.
  • the indentations on the one hand and the notches on the other hand are inclined in opposite directions to ensure their cooperation by mutual engagement ensuring a locking and preventing their disengagement in case of traction opposite to the insertion direction of the tongue.
  • the plurality of indentations and notches makes it possible to adjust the degree of closure of the flap on the body, thus adapting to the thickness of the object to be pinched.
  • the moving part of the locking means housed in a closed envelope, comprises a magnetic material and is associated with a spring to ensure its mobility.
  • This piece is made mobile by the attraction of the magnetic material to a powerful magnet, such a magnet constituting a known detacher in the field of locks.
  • the outer surfaces of the body and the flap of the device are flat.
  • the element 10 which houses the detection means has a dimension to the longitudinal direction of the transverse body (height) which does not exceed the height of the body and the flap in the closed position of the device.
  • the device thus remains small adapted to the objects to be protected.
  • the surfaces 11 and 12 form pinch surfaces of the object between which the object is intended to be fixed, firmly sandwiched.
  • branch 4 figure 1
  • chain 6 figure 2
  • the flap 8 comprises a core 80 carrying the gripping surface 12, a flange 81 connected and orthogonal to said core 80, the free end of the flange, opposite the gripping surface, forming part of a articulation assembly for constituting the hinge between the flap 8 and the body 7.
  • a spiral spring 19 ( figure 3A ) is provided between the legs 15 and 16, substantially at the middle of the rod 9A and surrounding the latter, and whose ends 19A and 19B respectively bear on the body and the flap, so as to create a restoring force tending to open the lock to the open position ( Figures 3A and 3B ).
  • the notches 23 of the housing 22 are adapted to cooperate with the indentations 21 of the tongue 20, the indentations 21 and notches 23 having cut sides of opposite inclination.
  • the notches 23 and the indentations 21 are advantageously made of plastic, such as PVC.
  • the magnetic material of the retaining piece housed in the element 10 makes it possible to unlock the flap 8 by dissociating the crenellated tongue 20 with the notches 23.
  • the closure tab 20 has a dimension (width) in the longitudinal direction of the flap, much smaller than the length of the flap.
  • the plurality of notches and indentations extending over the height of the tongue makes it possible to adapt the degree of closure of the device and therefore the pressure force applied to the object, without thereby damaging the object.
  • the respective pinching surfaces 11 and 12 of the flap and the body comprise means in relief or projecting, of elastically deformable material.
  • Said means are, according to the example described, constituted alternately on the one hand ribs 24 for the body 7, and 24 'for the flap, parallel to each other and transverse to the longitudinal direction of the body and the flap, and on the other hand hollow or grooves 25 for the body 7, and 25 'for the flap, parallel to each other and to the ribs.
  • said means consist of a solid block (preferred embodiment) or individual elements, of an elastically deformable material, such as an elastomer, or silicone, for example.
  • the ribs and troughs form the nip surfaces 11 and 12.
  • the ribs and depressions preferably have a triangular section. Two ribs are separated by a hollow obtuse angle, in particular of the order of 120 °.
  • Fixing the resilient plastic material forming the nip / surface can be removable, or completely integral by being for example glued, heat-welded, or overmolded.
  • FIGS. 7A and 7B show side of the attachment steps of the lock 1 on a branch 4 of glasses (the latter being shown in section for convenience).
  • the user only needs one hand to handle it and ensure its closure around the object that is grasped with the other hand.
  • the user grasps the lock 1 by the gripping element 10 with one hand, in particular by placing his thumb against the front face 10A of the element 10 and carrying his forefinger against and along the open flap 8, on the outer side of the flap, opposite the pinch surface.
  • the last step ( Figure 7B ) is to press the flap 8 closer to the body 7, further cooperating with the respective notches 21, 23, until the respective pinching surfaces 11 and 12 press the branch 4 glasses.
  • the elastic deformation of the protruding and deformable means provided on the nip surfaces generates an increased pressure on the branch 4 of glasses regardless of its diameter.
  • the lock is suitable for any type of diameter / thickness of the elongated object to be clamped. It has for this purpose a width of the nip surfaces 11 and 12 appropriate and a wing height 81 for the appropriate flap, including sufficiently high.
  • the device of the invention thus makes it possible to attach to any type of elongated articles, firmly and locked, without risk of deterioration of the object, while very effectively resisting tearing that would be operated on the object longitudinally to the body of the device.
  • this device does not appeal for its association / attachment on the object to any clamping tool.
  • the operator pinches the fastener on the object.
  • the fastening device of the invention may be used as an antitheft device and / or an electronic read / write information carrier device of the type comprising an RFID electronic tag.
