Description

L'invention est relative à un dispositif télescopique de manutention, comportant au moins deux éléments montés à coulissement relatif avec interposition de patins de glissement. Un dispositif selon l'art antérieur est divulgué dans le document WO 2013/007050 . L'invention est particulièrement utile dans son application à des chariots de manutention à bras télescopique ou à des nacelles d'élévation de personnel à bras télescopique, ainsi que toute autre machine comportant un dispositif télescopique de manutention.The invention relates to a telescopic handling device, comprising at least two elements mounted relative sliding with the interposition of sliding pads. A device according to the prior art is disclosed in the document WO 2013/007050 . The invention is particularly useful in its application to telehandlers or telescopic staff lifting pods, as well as any other machine having a telescopic handling device.

On connaît des chariots de manutention à bras télescopique comportant des patins de glissement avec des inserts vissés. Pour fixer ces patins de glissement, il est nécessaire de percer les structures devant les recevoir, puis d'effectuer des calages par des pièces ajoutées.Hand trucks are known with telescopic arms comprising sliding pads with screwed inserts. To fix these sliding pads, it is necessary to drill the structures to receive them, then to make wedges by added parts.

Cette disposition nécessite d'utiliser des patins de glissement vissés avec un grand nombre de cales d'épaisseur empilées.This arrangement requires the use of sliding skids screwed with a large number of shims stacked.

Cette disposition présente le risque de fragiliser la solidité et la fiabilité de chaque assemblage vissé comportant un patin de glissement et une cale d'épaisseur.This arrangement has the risk of weakening the strength and reliability of each screwed assembly having a sliding pad and a shim thickness.

On connaît également des chariots de manutention à bras télescopique présentant des patins de glissement encastrés dans des cages de positionnement et de maintien. Cependant, la forme et l'encombrement des cages de maintien dépendent de la géométrie des éléments de bras télescopique.Hand trucks with telescopic arms are also known having sliding runners embedded in positioning and holding cages. However, the shape and size of the holding cages depend on the geometry of the telescopic arm members.

Le document EP 1 955 975 B1 décrit un dispositif télescopique de manutention comportant au moins deux éléments de sections sensiblement rectangulaires, montés à coulissement relatif avec interposition de patins de glissement. Les patins de glissement sont montés dans des cages munies de moyens de solidarisation à un élément coulissant. Les cages de patins de glissement comportent un moyen de solidarisation à une bride ou à un cavalier d'un élément coulissant du bras télescopique. Le moyen de solidarisation de patin est généralement monté en sandwich entre la bride d'un élément coulissant et une contre-bride.The document EP 1 955 975 B1 describes a telescopic handling device comprising at least two elements of substantially rectangular sections, mounted relative sliding with the interposition of sliding pads. The sliding pads are mounted in cages provided with securing means to a sliding element. The sliding shoe cages comprise a means for securing a flange or a jumper of a sliding element of the telescopic arm. The shoe fastening means is generally sandwiched between the flange of a sliding element and a counter-flange.

Bien que les dispositions du document EP 1 955 975 B1 permettent d'utiliser un nombre réduit de vis de solidarisation, la forme et l'encombrement des cages de positionnement et de maintien limitent la réduction de l'espacement entre les tubes coulissants du bras télescopique.Although the provisions of the document EP 1 955 975 B1 allow the use of a reduced number of fastening screws, the shape and size of the positioning and holding cages limit the reduction of the spacing between the sliding tubes of the telescopic arm.

Un premier but de l'invention est d'améliorer l'état de la technique connue, en augmentant la compacité du dispositif télescopique de manutention et en réduisant l'espacement entre des éléments montés à coulissement relatif d'un dispositif télescopique de manutention.A first object of the invention is to improve the known state of the art, by increasing the compactness of the telescopic handling device and by reducing the spacing between elements mounted relative sliding of a telescopic handling device.

Un deuxième but de l'invention est de fournir un nouveau dispositif télescopique de manutention pouvant être appliqué à des formes variées de géométrie d'éléments coulissants.A second object of the invention is to provide a new telescopic handling device that can be applied to various forms of sliding element geometry.

Un troisième but de l'invention est de permettre l'utilisation de patins de glissement d'épaisseur ajustée à l'espacement entre les tubes coulissants du bras télescopique, en facilitant ainsi le remplacement des patins de glissement usés.A third object of the invention is to allow the use of sliding pads of thickness adjusted to the spacing between the sliding tubes of the telescopic arm, thus facilitating the replacement of worn sliding pads.

Un quatrième but de l'invention est de fournir un nouveau montage de patins de glissement dans lequel chaque patin de glissement est indépendant des autres patins de glissement.A fourth object of the invention is to provide a new mounting of sliding pads in which each sliding pad is independent of other sliding pads.

Un cinquième but de l'invention est d'augmenter la productivité de fabrication des dispositifs télescopiques de manutention en supprimant les cages démontables de maintien et de positionnement et en permettant une fixation rapide et un remplacement aisé des patins de glissement usés.A fifth object of the invention is to increase the manufacturing productivity of telescopic handling devices by eliminating the removable holding and positioning cages and allowing quick attachment and easy replacement of worn sliding pads.

Un sixième but de l'invention est d'autoriser une usure de patin plus importante jusqu'à une limite préconisée avant remplacement.A sixth object of the invention is to allow greater shoe wear to a recommended limit before replacement.

L'invention a pour objet un dispositif télescopique de manutention, comportant au moins deux éléments montés à coulissement relatif avec interposition de patins de glissement, le dispositif comportant des moyens de maintien des patins de glissement d'épaisseur réduite pour limiter l'écartement entre deux éléments coulissants successifs à l'épaisseur des patins de glissement interposés, caractérisé en combinaison par le fait que les moyens de maintien des patins de glissement comportent des conformations en tenon et par le fait que les patins de glissement présentent chacun une conformation en mortaise coopérant avec une dite conformation en tenon, et par le fait qu'au moins un moyen de maintien de patin de glissement présente une conformation en T.The invention relates to a telescopic handling device, comprising at least two elements mounted relative sliding with the interposition of sliding pads, the device comprising means for maintaining the sliding pads of reduced thickness to limit the spacing between two successive sliding elements to the thickness of the interposed sliding pads, characterized in combination in that the means for holding the sliding pads comprise tenon conformations and in that the sliding pads each have a mortise conformation cooperating with one said conformation tenon, and in that at least one sliding shoe holding means has a T-shaped conformation.

Ainsi, l'épaisseur de l'assemblage des moyens de maintien et des patins de glissement est voisine de l'épaisseur des patins de glissement correspondants.Thus, the thickness of the assembly of the holding means and the sliding pads is close to the thickness of the corresponding sliding pads.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques alternatives de l'invention :

  • le dispositif peut comporter au moins une bride et au moins une contre-bride de maintien des patins de glissement.
  • le dispositif peut comporter un moyen de blocage pour éviter la sortie des patins de glissement à l'extérieur de leur moyen de maintien.
  • le moyen de blocage présente sensiblement une conformation en équerre.
  • au moins un moyen de maintien est monté au moins partiellement à travers la paroi d'un élément coulissant.
According to other alternative features of the invention:
  • the bar of the T-shaped form stop mounting a sliding shoe.
  • the T-shaped conformation has a foot provided with a mechanical fixing means for immobilizing a sliding shoe.
  • the foot of the T-shaped configuration may have an enlarged part penetrating through the wall of a sliding element and having a tapping for fixing a holding screw.

  • the device may comprise a locking means to prevent the sliding pads from leaving their holding means.
  • the locking means has substantially an angular conformation.
  • at least one holding means is mounted at least partially through the wall of a sliding element.

En référence aux figures 1 à 5, les éléments identiques ou fonctionnellement équivalents sont repérés par des chiffres de référence identiques.With reference to Figures 1 to 5 identical or functionally equivalent elements are identified by identical reference numerals.

Sur la figure 1, un premier dispositif télescopique de manutention selon l'invention comporte un élément 1 de plus grande section et un élément 2 de plus petite section, montés à coulissement relatif avec interposition de patins 3 et 4 de glissement.On the figure 1 , a first telescopic handling device according to the invention comprises an element 1 of larger section and a member 2 of smaller section, mounted relative sliding with the interposition of pads 3 and 4 sliding.

Les patins 3 de glissement sont des patins de glissement horizontaux.The sliding pads 3 are horizontal sliding pads.

Les patins 4 de glissement sont des patins de glissement sensiblement verticaux.The sliding pads 4 are substantially vertical sliding pads.

L'élément 1 de plus grande section porte intérieurement ces patins 3 et 4 de glissement respectivement horizontaux et sensiblement verticaux.The element 1 of larger section carries internally these sliding pads 3 and 4 respectively horizontal and substantially vertical.

Les patins 3 de glissement horizontaux présentent généralement des dimensions supérieures à celles des patins 4 de glissement sensiblement verticaux, tout en étant de conformation similaire, décrite aux figures 2 et 5.The horizontal sliding shoes 3 generally have dimensions greater than those of the substantially vertical sliding shoes 4, while being of similar conformation, described in FIGS. figures 2 and 5 .

L'élément 1 comporte une bride 7 d'extrémité munie de trois taraudages destinés à recevoir des vis 9 passant à travers des orifices d'une contre bride 8 de retenue de patins 3 et 4 de glissement sur des moyens de maintien 5 et 6.The element 1 comprises an end flange 7 provided with three threads intended to receive screws 9 passing through the orifices of a counter flange 8 for retaining sliding shoes 3 and 4 on holding means 5 and 6.

Le rebord inférieur de la contre bride 8 assure le blocage des patins 3 et 4 de glissement sur leurs moyens de maintien 5 et 6 lors du coulissement relatif des éléments 1 et 2 dans le sens de l'extension du télescope, tandis que le fond des moyens de maintien 5 et 6 est agencé en butée pour assurer le blocage des patins 3 et 4 de glissement dans le sens de la rétraction du télescope.The lower flange of the flange 8 ensures the locking of the sliding pads 3 and 4 on their holding means 5 and 6 during the relative sliding of the elements 1 and 2 in the direction of extension of the telescope, while the bottom of the holding means 5 and 6 is arranged in abutment to ensure the locking of the sliding pads 3 and 4 in the retraction direction of the telescope.

Le démontage de la contre bride 8 facilite également le remplacement des patins 3 et 4 usés ou leur inspection et graissage périodique.Disassembly of the counter flange 8 also facilitates the replacement of worn pads 3 and 4 or their periodic inspection and lubrication.

Le dispositif télescopique de manutention selon l'invention comporte également au moins un élément de section plus petite et monté à coulissement relatif avec interposition de patins 3 et 4 de glissement dans l'élément 1 de plus grande section.The telescopic handling device according to the invention also comprises at least one element of smaller section and mounted relative sliding with the interposition of sliding pads 3 and 4 in the element 1 of larger section.

Sur la figure 2, au moins un moyen 5 de maintien de patin de glissement est représenté.On the figure 2 at least one sliding shoe holding means 5 is shown.

Chaque moyen 5 de maintien de patin de glissement présente une conformation en T, avec une barre 13 orientée transversalement à l'élément coulissant et une partie droite orientée longitudinalement dans le sens du télescopage de l'élément coulissant.Each sliding shoe holding means 5 has a T-shaped configuration, with a bar 13 oriented transversely to the sliding element and a straight portion oriented longitudinally in the telescoping direction of the sliding element.

La barre 13 de la conformation en T forme butée de montage d'un patin de glissement, de manière à éviter son enfoncement en direction de l'intérieur de l'élément coulissant correspondant.The bar 13 of the T-shaped form stop mounting a sliding shoe, so as to avoid its depression towards the interior of the corresponding sliding element.

La partie droite ou pied 14 de l'organe de maintien 5 présente une conformation en mortaise avec des faces 14a, 14b orientées selon un angle A d'ouverture compris entre 100 et 140 degrés d'angle.The right part or foot 14 of the holding member 5 has a mortise conformation with faces 14a, 14b oriented at an angle A of opening between 100 and 140 degrees of angle.

Les faces 13a de la barre 13 de la conformation en T du moyen de maintien 7 sont de préférence des faces orthogonales sensiblement perpendiculaires à l'élément coulissant 1.The faces 13a of the bar 13 of the T-shaped configuration of the holding means 7 are preferably orthogonal faces substantially perpendicular to the sliding element 1.

La fixation de la conformation en T du moyen de maintien 5 est de préférence effectuée par soudage du côté distal de la barre 13 de la conformation en T à la paroi de l'élément fixe 1, et du côté proximal de la partie droite 14.Fixation of the T-shape of the holding means 5 is preferably effected by welding the distal side of the bar 13 of the T-shape to the wall of the fixed member 1, and the proximal side of the straight portion 14.

L'invention décrite en référence à des modes de réalisation particuliers ne leur est nullement limitée, mais couvre au contraire toute variante de forme et toute modification de réalisation dans le cadre des revendications annexées.The invention described with reference to particular embodiments is not in any way limited to them, but on the contrary covers any variant form and any modification of embodiment within the scope of the appended claims.

Sur les figures 3 et 4, une vue arrière d'un deuxième dispositif télescopique de manutention selon l'invention est représentée, en faisant abstraction dans la figure 3 de l'élément coulissant 1 de plus grande section non représenté par souci de clarté.On the Figures 3 and 4 a rear view of a second telescopic handling device according to the invention is shown, disregarding the figure 3 of the sliding element 1 of larger section not shown for the sake of clarity.

L'élément 2 de plus petite section porte extérieurement des patins 3 et 4 de glissement respectivement horizontaux et sensiblement verticaux.The element 2 of smaller section carries externally sliding pads 3 and 4 respectively horizontal and substantially vertical.

Les patins 3 et 4 de glissement sont montés sur des conformations en tenon de supports 11 et 12 et présentent à cet effet chacun une conformation en mortaise destinée à coopérer avec la conformation en tenon du support 11 ou 12 correspondant.The skids 3 and 4 of sliding are mounted on conformations tenon supports 11 and 12 and each have for this purpose a mortise conformation intended to cooperate with the conformation tenon of the support 11 or 12 corresponding.

Pour éviter une sortie du patin 3 de glissement ou du patin 4 de glissement, on prévoit de bloquer la face proximale du patin 3 de glissement ou du patin 4 de glissement au moyen d'un organe de butée maintenu par au moins une vis 9 vissée dans un taraudage du support 11 ou 12.To prevent an exit of the sliding shoe 3 or of the sliding shoe 4, provision is made to block the proximal face of the sliding shoe 3 or of the sliding shoe 4 by means of an abutment member held by at least one screw 9 screwed in a tapping of the support 11 or 12.

Dans cet exemple, le blocage de chacun des patins 3 de glissement ou des patins 5 de glissement est effectué individuellement.In this example, the locking of each of the sliding pads 3 or sliding pads 5 is done individually.

Le blocage d'un patin 3 de glissement et d'un patin 5 de glissement peut aussi être effectué simultanément au moyen d'une conformation sensiblement en équerre bloquant deux patins montée à l'aide de deux vis 9.The blocking of a sliding shoe 3 and a sliding shoe 5 can also be effected simultaneously by means of a substantially square conformation blocking two shoes mounted by means of two screws 9.

Cette disposition est particulièrement avantageuse pour bloquer des patins de glissement d'un dispositif télescopique de manutention analogue au dispositif décrit dans le document EP 1 955 975 B1 .This arrangement is particularly advantageous for blocking sliding pads of a telescopic handling device similar to the device described in document EP 1 955 975 B1 .

Sur la figure 5, un moyen 11 de maintien de patin de glissement est représenté.On the figure 5 , a sliding shoe holding means 11 is shown.

Le moyen 11 de maintien de patin de glissement présente une conformation en T, avec une barre 13 orientée transversalement à l'élément coulissant et une partie droite orientée longitudinalement dans le sens du télescopage de l'élément coulissant.The sliding shoe holding means 11 has a T-shaped configuration, with a bar 13 oriented transversely to the sliding element and a straight portion oriented longitudinally in the telescoping direction of the sliding element.

La barre 13 orientée transversalement de la conformation en T forme butée de montage d'un patin de glissement, de manière à éviter son enfoncement en direction de l'intérieur de l'élément coulissant correspondant.The bar 13 oriented transversely of the T-shaped abutment mounting a sliding shoe, so as to avoid its depression towards the interior of the corresponding sliding element.

La partie droite ou pied 14 de l'organe de maintien 11 présente une conformation en mortaise avec des faces 14a, 14b orientées selon un angle A d'ouverture compris entre 100 et 140 degrés d'angle.The right part or foot 14 of the holding member 11 has a mortise conformation with faces 14a, 14b oriented at an angle A of opening between 100 and 140 degrees of angle.

Les faces 13a de la barre 13 de la conformation en T du moyen de maintien 7 sont de préférence des faces orthogonales sensiblement perpendiculaires à l'élément coulissant 1.The faces 13a of the bar 13 of the T-shaped configuration of the holding means 7 are preferably orthogonal faces substantially perpendicular to the sliding element 1.

La face avant de la partie droite 14 du moyen 7 de maintien présente une ouverture élargie pour y pratiquer un taraudage 14c propre à recevoir une vis 9 de fixation.The front face of the right portion 14 of the holding means 7 has an enlarged opening for making a tapping 14c adapted to receive a fixing screw 9.

Cette partie élargie 14d est conformée de manière à assurer l'anti rotation du moyen de blocage de patin.This enlarged portion 14d is shaped to provide anti-rotation of the pad locking means.

L'épaisseur de la conformation en T est augmentée du côté de cette face avant de la partie droite 14 et de l'extrémité proximale de l'élément coulissant 2, de sorte que le montage est effectué entre cuir et chair.The thickness of the T-shape is increased on the side of this front face of the straight portion 14 and the proximal end of the sliding element 2, so that the assembly is carried out between leather and flesh.

La fixation de la conformation en T du moyen de maintien 11 est de préférence effectuée par soudage du côté distal de la barre 13 de la conformation en T à la paroi de l'élément coulissant 2, et du côté proximal de la partie droite 14 au voisinage du taraudage 14cà l'extrémité proximale de l'élément coulissant 2.Fixation of the T-shape of the holding means 11 is preferably effected by welding the distal side of the bar 13 of the T-shape to the wall of the sliding member 2, and the proximal side of the straight portion 14 to the vicinity of the tapping 14c at the proximal end of the sliding element 2.

Une soudure inverse peut éventuellement être pratiquée sous l'épaisseur de la paroi de l'organe coulissant 2, pour renforcer encore la solidarisation du moyen de maintien 11 à la paroi partiellement traversée de l'élément coulissant 2.A reverse weld may possibly be made under the thickness of the wall of the sliding member 2, to further strengthen the attachment of the holding means 11 to the partially traversed wall of the sliding element 2.

L'invention décrite en référence à des modes de réalisation particuliers ne leur est nullement limitée, mais couvre au contraire toute variante de forme et toute modification de réalisation dans le cadre des revendications annexées.The invention described with reference to particular embodiments is not in any way limited to them, but on the contrary covers any variant form and any modification of embodiment within the scope of the appended claims.
