Description

COUVERCLE POUR LA FERMETURE DE BOITE ET ENSEMBLE COMPRENANT UNE BOITE ET UN COUVERCLE DU TYPE PRECITE  COVER FOR CLOSING BOX AND ASSEMBLY COMPRISING A BOX AND A COVER OF THE ABOVE TYPE
La présente invention concerne un couvercle pour la fermeture de boîte à paroi latérale tubulaire et un ensemble du type comprenant une boîte et un couvercle du type précité. The present invention relates to a lid for the tubular side wall box closure and a set of the type comprising a box and a lid of the aforementioned type.
Elle concerne plus particulièrement un couvercle pour la fermeture de boîte à paroi latérale tubulaire munie d'une ouverture supérieure, d'une collerette radiale interne et d'un rebord périphérique radial externe, collerette et rebord étant disposés sensiblement au niveau de l'ouverture supérieure, ledit couvercle présentant une face dite du dessous munie d'un joint d'étanchéité annulaire apte à venir en appui sur ladite collerette à l'état fermé de l'ouverture supérieure de la boîte par ledit couvercle et comprenant des moyens de fixation du couvercle à la boîte, ces moyens de fixation comprenant au moins deux pattes disposées autour du joint d'étanchéité et s'étendant au moins partiellement en saillie de la face du dessous du couvercle, chaque ou au moins deux des pattes présentant une partie active de fixation formée par une partie de la patte en saillie en direction du centre du couvercle, au moins l'une des pattes, dite mobile, étant déplaçable entre une position rapprochée et une position écartée de sa partie active de fixation de la partie active de fixation d'au moins une autre patte, ces parties actives de fixation étant aptes, en position rapprochée correspondant à la position active de fermeture du couvercle, à se positionner sous ledit rebord périphérique radial externe de la boîte. It relates more particularly to a lid for the tubular side wall box closure provided with an upper opening, an inner radial flange and an outer radial peripheral flange, flange and flange being disposed substantially at the level of the upper opening said cover having a so-called bottom face provided with an annular seal adapted to bear on said collar in the closed state of the upper opening of the box by said cover and comprising means for fixing the cover to the box, these fastening means comprising at least two tabs arranged around the seal and extending at least partially projecting from the underside of the cover, each or at least two of the tabs having an active part fixing formed by a portion of the tab projecting towards the center of the lid, at least one of the legs, said mobile, being movable between e a close position and a position spaced from its active part for fixing the active part for fixing at least one other leg, these active fastening parts being suitable, in a close position corresponding to the active position of closing the lid, to positioned under said outer radial peripheral rim of the box.
De tels couvercles sont notamment utilisés pour la fermeture de boîtes de peinture. Such covers are used in particular for the closure of paint cans.
Jusqu'à présent, les moyens de fixation du couvercle à la boîte sont formés, soit de leviers à came chargés par ressort comme l'illustre par exemple le brevet FR 2 707 258, soit de pattes élastiquement déformables comme l'illustre le brevet européen EP 1 510 363. Ces deux modes de fixation présentent des inconvénients. En effet, le système de levier à came nécessite la présence de ressorts et doit être partiellement placé au contact du contenu de la boîte. Le système à patte élastique oblige à disposer de différentes dimensions de couvercles pour s'adapter aux différents diamètres de boîtes. En outre, le démontage du couvercle de la boîte est difficile et nécessite notamment d'exercer une pression manuelle importante sur les pattes pour les déformer, au risque de renverser la boîte. Until now, the means for fixing the lid to the box are formed, either spring loaded cam levers as illustrated for example in the patent FR 2 707 258, or elastically deformable legs as illustrated by the European patent EP 1 510 363. These two modes of attachment have disadvantages. Indeed, the cam lever system requires the presence of springs and must be partially placed in contact with the contents of the box. The system with elastic tab requires to have different sizes of covers to adapt to the different diameters of boxes. In addition, the disassembly of the lid of the box is difficult and requires in particular to exert significant manual pressure on the tabs to deform, the risk of overturning the box.

De préférence, les moyens de verrouillage sont au moins partiellement élastiquement déformables et sont aptes à passer de la position verrouillée à la position déverrouillée, ou inversement, par déformation élastique combinée avec un déplacement à pivotement de la patte mobile pivotante. Il en résulte une simplicité de commande du verrouillage. Preferably, the locking means are at least partially elastically deformable and are able to move from the locked position to the unlocked position, or vice versa, by elastic deformation combined with a pivotal displacement of the pivoting movable lug. This results in a simplicity of locking control.
De préférence, le couvercle présente une face du dessus opposée à la face du dessous qui forme un bec verseur, ce bec verseur présentant un siège d'un obturateur, ledit obturateur étant un obturateur coulissant équipé de moyens de rappel en position fermée et d'un levier pivotant de commande d'ouverture actif à encontre desdits moyens de rappel, ledit levier pivotant de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur surmontant la ou l'une des pattes mobiles.

Comme mentionné ci-dessus, l'invention a pour objet un couvercle 1 pour la fermeture d'une boîte 30 et l'ensemble formé du couvercle et de la boîte. As mentioned above, the subject of the invention is a lid 1 for closing a box 30 and the assembly formed by the lid and the box.
Comme représenté aux figures, la boîte 30, telle qu'une boîte de peinture, présente une paroi 31 latérale tubulaire munie à, ou au voisinage d'une extrémité, d'une collerette 32 radiale interne délimitant une ouverture 34 dite supérieure sensiblement circulaire. La paroi 31 latérale tubulaire de la boîte comprend en outre un rebord 33 périphérique radial externe disposé également sensiblement au niveau de l'ouverture 34 supérieure et de la collerette 32 radiale interne. L'ouverture 34 supérieure de la boîte 30 est fermée par le couvercle 1 . As shown in the figures, the box 30, such as a paint box, has a tubular lateral wall 31 provided at or near one end, with an internal radial flange 32 delimiting an opening 34 said upper substantially circular. The tubular lateral wall 31 of the box further comprises an outer radial peripheral rim 33 also disposed substantially at the level of the upper opening 34 and the inner radial collar 32. The upper opening 34 of the box 30 is closed by the lid 1.
Ce couvercle 1 comprend une face 2 du dessous munie d'un joint 4 d'étanchéité annulaire apte à venir en appui sur ladite collerette 32 à l'état fermé de l'ouverture 34 supérieure de la boîte 30 par ledit couvercle. Ce joint 4 d'étanchéité annulaire est un joint élastiquement déformable qui, à l'état non déformé, affecte la forme générale d'un demi-tore à convexité tournée vers la boîte. La surface convexe du joint 4 d'étanchéité est représentée en 5 aux figures. This cover 1 comprises a bottom face 2 provided with an annular sealing gasket 4 adapted to bear on said flange 32 in the closed state of the upper opening 34 of the box 30 by said cover. This annular sealing gasket 4 is an elastically deformable seal which, in the undeformed state, affects the general shape of a convexity half-torus facing the box. The convex surface of the seal 4 is shown in 5 in the figures.
Dans les exemples représentés, ce demi-tore est creux. Ce demi-tore est ouvert côté face 6 du demi-tore tourné vers le couvercle 1 . In the examples shown, this half-torus is hollow. This half-torus is open on the face 6 of the half torus turned towards the cover 1.
Ce joint 4 d'étanchéité présente un bord 7 circonférentiel interne, un bord 8 circonférentiel externe et au moins une zone 9 de liaison au couvercle disposée au niveau de l'un de ses bords circonférentiels. L'autre bord circonférentiel du joint d'étanchéité est libre. This sealing gasket 4 has an inner circumferential edge 7, an outer circumferential edge 8 and at least one cover connecting zone 9 disposed at one of its circumferential edges. The other circumferential edge of the seal is free.
Dans l'exemple représenté, le joint 4 d'étanchéité est fixé au couvercle 1 par l'intermédiaire soit d'une bague 10 annulaire montée solidaire du bord 7 circonférentiel interne du joint, le bord 8 circonférentiel externe du joint étant libre, soit par l'intermédiaire d'un jonc 10'annulaire délimitant un anneau ouvert. La bague 10 s'insère à force dans un logement annulaire ménagé dans la face du dessous du couvercle. Le jonc 10' se loge quant à lui à l'intérieur du joint et agit par poussée sur le bord 7 circonférentiel interne du joint pour l'insérer dans une gorge annulaire ménagée côté face du dessous du couvercle. In the example shown, the seal 4 is attached to the cover 1 by means of either an annular ring 10 integral with the inner circumferential edge 7 of the seal, the outer circumferential edge 8 of the seal being free, or by via a ring 10 'ring defining an open ring. The ring 10 is forced into an annular housing formed in the underside of the lid. The ring 10 'is housed inside the seal and acts by pushing on the inner circumferential edge 7 of the seal to insert it into an annular groove formed on the underside of the lid.
Le couvercle comprend également une poignée 12. The lid also includes a handle 12.
Le couvercle comprend encore des moyens 14 de fixation du couvercle 1 à la boîte 30. Ces moyens 14 de fixation comprennent ici trois pattes 141 , 142, 143 ou 143' disposées autour du joint 4 d'étanchéité et s'étendant au moins partiellement en saillie de la face 2 du dessous du couvercle. The lid further comprises means 14 for fixing the lid 1 to the box 30. These fixing means 14 here comprise three tabs 141, 142, 143 or 143 'arranged around the seal 4 and extending at least partially projecting from the face 2 of the underside of the cover.
Ces trois pattes sont disposées espacées les unes des autres sur la circonférence du couvercle. La face 2 du dessous du couvercle est munie sur au moins une partie de son pourtour d'une bordure annulaire formant un bord tombé de la face du dessous. Cette bordure annulaire recouvre au moins une partie de la paroi 31 latérale tubulaire de la boîte lorsque le couvercle est positionné sur l'ouverture 34 supérieure de la boîte 30. These three tabs are arranged spaced apart from each other on the circumference of the lid. The underside 2 of the lid is provided on at least a portion of its periphery with an annular rim forming a fallen edge of the underside. This annular border covers at least a portion of the tubular lateral wall 31 of the box when the lid is positioned on the upper opening 34 of the box 30.
Deux des pattes représentées en 141 et 142 sont des pattes rigides réalisées d'une seule pièce avec ladite bordure annulaire. Two of the tabs represented at 141 and 142 are rigid tabs made in one piece with said annular rim.
Chacune des pattes 141 , 142 et 143 ou 143' présente une partie active de fixation formée par une partie de la patte en saillie en direction du centre du couvercle. La partie 141 1 et 1421 active de fixation de chacune des pattes 141 et 142 rigides est formée par un cran ou dent ménagé sur la surface de la patte tournée vers le centre du couvercle. Each of the tabs 141, 142 and 143 or 143 'has an active attachment portion formed by a portion of the protruding tab towards the center of the lid. The portion 141 1 and 1421 active fixing each of the tabs 141 and 142 rigid is formed by a notch or tooth formed on the surface of the tab facing the center of the lid.
La troisième patte 143 ou 143' est une patte mobile déplaçable entre une position rapprochée et une position écartée de sa partie 1431 active de fixation de la partie active de fixation des autres pattes. The third tab 143 or 143 'is a movable tab movable between a close position and a position spaced from its active portion 1431 for fixing the active part for fixing the other tabs.
Ces parties actives de fixation sont aptes à se positionner sous le rebord 33 périphérique radial externe de la boîte en position rapprochée correspondant à la position active de fermeture du couvercle, lorsque le couvercle 1 est positionné sur l'ouverture 34 supérieure de la boîte. These active attachment parts are able to be positioned under the external peripheral peripheral rim 33 of the box in the close position corresponding to the active closing position of the lid, when the lid 1 is positioned on the upper opening 34 of the box.
Dans l'exemple représenté aux figures 1 à 10, la troisième patte 143 est, pour le déplacement de sa partie 1431 active de fixation entre une position rapprochée et une position écartée de la partie active de fixation des autres pattes 141 , 142, montée mobile à pivotement autour d'un axe (XX') sensiblement parallèle à un plan circonférentiel du joint 4 annulaire d'étanchéité. Le couvercle comprend, pour ladite patte 143 mobile pivotante, des moyens 19 de verrouillage du pivotement de ladite patte 143 mobile pivotante en position rapprochée de sa partie active de fixation de la partie active de fixation des autres pattes, ces moyens 19 de verrouillage étant déverrouillables. In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 10, the third tab 143 is, for the displacement of its active fastening portion 1431 between a close position and a position separated from the active attachment part of the other tabs 141, 142, mounted movably pivotally about an axis (XX ') substantially parallel to a circumferential plane of the annular seal 4. The cover comprises, for said pivotable mobile lug 143, means 19 for locking the pivoting pivot of said movable tab 143 in a position close to its active attachment part of the active part for fixing the other lugs, these locking means 19 being unlockable .
Dans l'exemple représenté, la patte 143 mobile pivotante affecte, entre sa liaison pivot et son extrémité libre, la forme d'un V dont la branche du V qui porte l'extrémité libre de la patte forme la partie 1431 active de fixation de la patte 143. In the example shown, the pivoting mobile tab 143 affects, between its pivot connection and its free end, the shape of a V whose branch of the V which carries the free end of the tab forms the active portion 1431 for fixing the the paw 143.
Dans l'exemple représenté, cette partie 1431 active de fixation de la patte de fixation de la patte 143 mobile pivotante est élastiquement déformable. La déformation élastique s'opère par rapprochement des branches du V. In the example shown, this portion 1431 active attachment of the bracket of the tab 143 movable pivoting is elastically deformable. The elastic deformation takes place by bringing the branches of the V.
L'autre branche du V est munie de deux portions d'axe s'insérant chacune dans un palier d'axe ménagé dans le reste du couvercle. Palier d'axe et portion d'axe forment les éléments de la liaison pivot permettant un montage à pivotement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante. The other leg of the V is provided with two axis portions each inserted in a bearing axis formed in the rest of the lid. Axle bearing and axis portion form the elements of the pivot connection for pivotally mounting the pivotable mobile tab 143.
Pour la manœuvre de la patte 143 mobile pivotante, le couvercle comprend un levier 20 de commande d'entraînement en déplacement à pivotement de la patte. Ce levier 20 de commande est ici réalisé d'une seule pièce avec la patte et forme un prolongement de la branche du V de la patte équipée d'une liaison pivot. For the operation of the pivotable mobile tab 143, the cover comprises a drive control lever 20 in pivotal movement of the tab. This control lever 20 is here made in one piece with the tab and forms an extension of the leg V of the leg equipped with a pivot connection.
Les moyens 19 de verrouillage du pivotement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante en position rapprochée de sa partie active de fixation de la partie active de fixation des autres pattes comprennent des premiers moyens 191 de verrouillage montés solidaires en déplacement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante et des deuxièmes moyens 192 de verrouillage stationnaires portés par la poignée 12, ces premiers et deuxièmes moyens de verrouillage étant couplés en position verrouillée et désaccouplés en position déverrouillée. The means 19 for locking the pivoting of the movable pivoting lug 143 in a position close to its active attachment part of the active attachment part of the other lugs comprise first locking means 191 mounted integral in displacement of the movable pivoting lug 143 and second stationary locking means 192 carried by the handle 12, these first and second locking means being coupled in the locked position and uncoupled in the unlocked position.
Ces premiers moyens 191 de verrouillage sont formés par un cran ou ergot porté par le levier 20 de commande et les deuxièmes moyens 192 de verrouillage sont formés par une lumière ménagée dans la poignée, en particulier dans la branche verticale de la poignée. These first locking means 191 are formed by a notch or lug carried by the control lever 20 and the second means 192 of locking are formed by a light formed in the handle, in particular in the vertical branch of the handle.
À l'état couplé correspondant à la position verrouillée, le cran s'insère dans la lumière. In the coupled state corresponding to the locked position, the notch fits into the light.
Pour le déverrouillage, le levier étant élastiquement déformable, il suffit d'appuyer sur le cran qui génère une déformation du levier, ce qui permet une sortie du cran de la lumière. Une fois déverrouillée, la patte 143 mobile peut être entraînée en déplacement à pivotement dans le sens d'un écartement de sa partie active de fixation des parties actives de fixation des autres pattes. For unlocking, the lever being elastically deformable, simply press the notch which generates a deformation of the lever, which allows an output of the notch of the light. Once unlocked, the movable tab 143 can be driven in pivotal displacement in the direction of a spacing of its active portion for fixing the active parts for fixing the other tabs.
Pour le verrouillage, on procède de manière inverse : la patte 143 mobile pivotante est commandée en déplacement à pivotement dans le sens d'un rapprochement de sa partie active de fixation des autres parties actives de fixation ou du centre du couvercle, jusqu'à une position où le cran porté par le levier 20 de commande d'entraînement à déplacement de la patte 143 vient par encliquetage se loger dans la lumière ménagée dans la poignée 12. For the locking, the procedure is the opposite: the pivoting mobile flap 143 is pivotally moved in the direction of bringing its active attachment part of the other active fastening parts or the center of the lid closer together, to position where the notch carried by the movement control lever 20 to move the tab 143 snap fit into the light formed in the handle 12.
Dans l'exemple représenté aux figures 1 1 et 12, la patte 143' mobile est une patte coulissante déplaçable à coulissement suivant un plan sensiblement parallèle à un plan circonférentiel du joint annulaire d'étanchéité. Cette patte 143' est une patte chargée par ressort et montée mobile à rencontre du ressort dans le sens d'un écartement de sa partie 1431 active de fixation des parties actives de fixation des autres pattes. Cette patte 143' est verrouillable en position rapprochée de sa partie active de fixation de la partie active de fixation d'au moins une autre patte par l'intermédiaire des moyens 19' de verrouillage formés ici par une vis à molette vissable/dévissable dans le couvercle. En position verrouillée, l'extrémité libre de la vis vient en appui sur une face de la patte coulissante pour empêcher son déplacement à coulissement. In the example shown in Figures 1 1 and 12, the tab 143 'movable is a sliding lug displaceable in a plane substantially parallel to a circumferential plane of the annular seal. This tab 143 'is a tab loaded by spring and mounted movably against the spring in the direction of a spacing of its active portion 1431 for fixing the active parts of other fixing tabs. This lug 143 'is lockable in a position close to its active part for fixing the active part for fixing at least one other lug by means of locking means 19' here formed by a screw which is screwable / unscrewable in the lid. In the locked position, the free end of the screw bears on one side of the sliding lug to prevent its sliding movement.
Comme mentionné ci-dessus, dans les exemples représentés, le couvercle comprend encore une poignée 12. Cette poignée radiale externe 12 affecte la forme d'un L inversé. On note que dans l'exemple représenté, la branche horizontale du L inversé de la poignée est ici évidée pour permettre le logement du levier 20 de commande d'entraînement en déplacement à pivotement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante et son passage d'une position à une autre. As mentioned above, in the examples shown, the cover further comprises a handle 12. This external radial handle 12 has the shape of an inverted L. Note that in the example shown, the horizontal arm of the inverted L of the handle is recessed here to allow the housing of the drive control lever 20 to move in pivotal movement of the movable lug 143 and its passage from a position to another.
Dans les exemples représentés, le couvercle présente encore une face 3 du dessus opposée à la face 2 du dessous qui forme un bec 15 verseur. Ce bec 15 verseur présente un siège 151 d'un obturateur 16. Ce siège 151 est formé par la surface du dessus ouverte du bec verseur. In the examples shown, the lid also has a face 3 of the top opposite to the underside 2 which forms a spout 15. This spout 15 has a seat 151 with a shutter 16. This seat 151 is formed by the open top surface of the spout.
Dans les exemples représentés, le siège 151 du bec 15 verseur est incliné à pente descendante depuis la périphérie en direction du centre du couvercle 1 . L'obturateur 16 est un obturateur coulissant équipé de moyens 17 de rappel en position fermée et d'un levier 18 pivotant de commande d'ouverture actif à encontre desdits moyens 17 de rappel. Le levier 18 pivotant de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur 16 surmonte la patte 143 mobile pivotante. In the examples shown, the seat 151 of the spout 15 is inclined downwardly from the periphery toward the center of the lid 1. The shutter 16 is a sliding shutter equipped with return means 17 in the closed position and an active opening control pivot lever 18 against said return means 17. The shutter opening control pivot lever 18 overcomes the pivotable mobile tab 143.
L'obturateur 16 est ici formé par une simple plaque et les moyens 17 de rappel sont réalisés sous forme d'un ressort en épingle à cheveux dont la coopération avec l'obturateur est déjà connue de l'état de la technique et ne sera donc pas décrite en détail. The shutter 16 is here formed by a simple plate and the return means 17 are made in the form of a hairpin spring whose cooperation with the shutter is already known from the state of the art and therefore will be not described in detail.
Le levier 18 pivotant de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur 16 qui surmonte la patte 143 mobile pivotante est monté mobile à pivotement autour d'un axe parallèle à l'axe (XX') de pivotement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante qu'il surmonte. The pivoting shutter opening control lever 18 which overcomes the pivoting mobile tab 143 is pivotally mounted about an axis parallel to the axis (XX ') of pivoting of the movable pivoting lug 143. he overcomes.
Ce levier 18 pivotant de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur 16 forme en outre, si nécessaire, lors de la commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur, un organe de commande de verrouillage des moyens 19 de verrouillage du pivotement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante surmontée par ledit levier 18. This pivoting shutter opening control lever 18 furthermore forms, if necessary, during the shutter opening control, a locking control member of the locking means 19 for pivoting the tab 143. pivoting mobile wheel surmounted by said lever 18.
En effet, si le levier 20 de commande d'entraînement en déplacement à pivotement de la patte 143 mobile n'a pas d'ores et déjà été actionné pour l'amenée de la patte 143 mobile en position verrouillée, il peut être actionné par le levier 18 pivotant de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur 16 qui le surmonte. Indeed, if the lever 20 for driving control in pivoting movement of the movable tab 143 has not already been actuated for bringing the movable tab 143 into the locked position, it can be actuated by the pivoting lever 18 for opening control of the shutter 16 which overcomes it.
Ainsi, le passage de l'obturateur de la position fermée à la position ouverte peut permettre en parallèle le passage de la patte 143 de la position déverrouillée à la position verrouillée. Thus, the passage of the shutter from the closed position to the open position may allow in parallel the passage of the tab 143 from the unlocked position to the locked position.
Lorsque le couvercle 1 est un couvercle agitateur, le couvercle 1 comprend encore une ouverture 13 centrale prévue pour l'arbre de rotation d'un ensemble mélangeur. When the lid 1 is an agitator lid, the lid 1 further comprises a central opening 13 provided for the rotation shaft of a mixer assembly.
En pratique, la fermeture d'une boîte à l'aide d'un couvercle tel que décrit ci- dessus peut s'opérer comme suit : le couvercle 1 est positionné avec sa face du dessous en regard de l'ouverture supérieure de la boîte. La patte 143 mobile pivotante du couvercle est déverrouillée et sa partie 1431 active de fixation est écartée des parties actives de fixation 1412 et 1421 des autres pattes de fixation ou du centre du couvercle. In practice, closing a box with a lid as described above can be done as follows: the lid 1 is positioned with its underside facing the upper opening of the box . The pivoting mobile flap 143 of the cover is unlocked and its active attachment portion 1431 is moved away from the active fastening portions 1412 and 1421 of the other fastening tabs or the center of the cover.
Les parties 1412 et 1421 actives de fixation des pattes 141 et 142 rigides, c'est-à-dire non pivotantes sont positionnées sous le rebord 33 périphérique radial externe de la boîte. La patte 143 mobile pivotante est, par l'intermédiaire de son levier 20 de commande qui est manœuvré par la main de l'opérateur qui tient la poignée 12 de saisie du couvercle, entraînée en déplacement à pivotement jusqu'à une position dans laquelle la partie 1431 active de fixation de la patte 143 mobile pivotante est disposée par appui sur la face du dessous du rebord 33 périphérique radial externe, c'est-à-dire la face du rebord 33 périphérique radial externe tournée vers le fond de la boîte opposé à la face d'extrémité de la boîte qui porte l'ouverture supérieure. The active portions 1412 and 1421 for fastening the tabs 141 and 142 which are rigid, that is to say non-pivoting, are positioned under the outer peripheral rim 33 of the box. The pivoting mobile flap 143 is, via its control lever 20, which is operated by the hand of the operator who holds the grip grip 12 of the cover, driven in pivoting motion to a position in which the 1431 active portion of attachment of the pivoting mobile tab 143 is disposed by pressing on the underside of the rim 33 external radial peripheral, that is to say the face of the rim 33 external radial peripheral turned towards the bottom of the opposite box at the end face of the box that carries the top opening.
Dans cette position de la patte, le cran 191 du levier 20 de commande d'entraînement en pivotement de la patte 143 mobile s'insère dans la lumière 192 de la poignée et le verrouillage de la patte s'opère de sorte que tout déplacement à pivotement de la patte 143 suivant une direction opposée est empêché. La fixation du couvercle 1 à la boîte est achevée. En variante, il peut être prévu d'amener d'abord la partie active de fixation de la patte mobile pivotante sous le rebord périphérique de la boîte avant d'exercer une poussée sur le couvercle et de pousser le couvercle pour amener les parties actives de fixation des pattes 141 et 142 rigides sous le rebord périphérique de la boîte. L'actionnement de la patte mobile et son verrouillage s'opèrent ensuite comme décrit ci-dessus. In this position of the tab, the notch 191 of the pivoting drive control lever 20 of the movable tab 143 is inserted into the light 192 of the handle and the locking of the tab operates so that any movement to pivoting of the tab 143 in an opposite direction is prevented. The fixing of the cover 1 to the box is completed. Alternatively, it can be provided to first bring the active part fixing the pivoting mobile tab under the peripheral rim of the box before exerting a thrust on the lid and push the lid to bring the active parts of the fixing the tabs 141 and 142 rigid under the peripheral rim of the box. The actuation of the mobile tab and its locking then operate as described above.
L'obturateur du bec verseur peut être actionné dans le sens d'une ouverture à l'aide du levier 18 pivotant. Le relâchement du levier 18 entraîne automatiquement le retour de l'obturateur en position fermée, à l'aide des moyens 17 de rappel. The shutter of the spout can be actuated in the direction of an opening with the lever 18 pivoting. Releasing the lever 18 automatically causes the shutter to return to the closed position, using the return means 17.
Pour désolidariser le couvercle de la boîte, il suffit d'exercer une pression sur le cran 191 dans le sens d'une extraction du cran 191 de la lumière 192, puis d'entraîner en déplacement à pivotement la patte 143 dans le sens d'un écartement de la partie 1431 active de fixation de la patte des parties actives de fixation des autres pattes ou du centre du couvercle. To separate the lid of the box, it is sufficient to exert pressure on the notch 191 in the direction of an extraction of the notch 191 of the light 192, and then to cause the tab 143 to pivotally move in the direction of rotation. a separation of the active portion 1431 for fixing the tab of the active parts for fixing the other tabs or the center of the cover.
Pour l'actionnement de la patte 143 mobile pivotante dans le sens d'un rapprochement de sa partie active de fixation des parties actives de fixation des autres pattes, il est possible d'agir sur le levier 18 de manœuvre de l'obturateur, ce levier 18 venant, au cours de son pivotement, en appui sur le levier 20 de manœuvre et l'entraînant en déplacement jusqu'à une position de fin de course dans laquelle il est verrouillé. For actuation of the movable tab 143 pivoting in the direction of approximation of its active attachment part of the active attachment parts of the other tabs, it is possible to act on the lever 18 for operating the shutter, this lever 18 coming, during its pivoting, bearing on the operating lever 20 and driving it to a position of end position in which it is locked.
On note que les manœuvres du levier 18 de commande d'ouverture de l'obturateur et 20 de commande de l'entraînement en déplacement à pivotement de la patte 143 sont effectuées par la main de l'opérateur qui tient la poignée 12. C'est le pouce de cette main, qui permet d'agir sur ces deux leviers. It should be noted that the operations of the lever 18 for controlling the opening of the shutter and for controlling the drive in pivotal displacement of the tab 143 are carried out by the hand of the operator holding the handle 12. is the thumb of this hand, which allows to act on these two levers.
Ainsi, en dépit de la présence de deux leviers, une seule main suffit pour actionner ces deux leviers. Lorsque la patte mobile est une patte coulissante comme illustré à la figure 1 1 , l'opérateur exerce une traction sur la patte 143' à rencontre du ressort pour l'écarter des autres pattes puis relâche ladite patte dont la partie active de fixation vient se positionner sous le rebord périphérique radial externe de la boîte en position d'appui contre la face externe de la paroi périphérique de la boîte. Il est ensuite procédé au verrouillage en position de ladite patte. Thus, despite the presence of two levers, one hand is sufficient to operate these two levers. When the mobile lug is a sliding lug as illustrated in Figure 1 1, the operator exerts a pull on the lug 143 'against the spring to move away from the other legs and releases said lug whose active attachment part comes to position under the outer radial peripheral rim of the box in the support position against the outer face of the peripheral wall of the box. It is then locked in position of said tab.
