Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for protecting or wedging an angular object for transport.
  • the expandable wedge-shaped device has a bellows allowing it to adjust to the varying thickness of the objects to be transported.
  • This device is particularly suitable for the protection of angular plane objects of the panel type, such as sharp corners of decorative frames, mirrors, windows and more generally any fragile planar object.
  • the invention also relates to the use of this device.
  • Fragile objects such as decorative frames, windows and mirrors are usually surrounded by heavy paper or cardboard or a strong envelope when transported, complemented by resilient and resilient corners. , shock absorbing, and which are arranged around the corners of the frames.
  • Requirement FR 2 668 458 A1 proposes a universal protection corner for angular plane objects including a shim to adapt the protection wedge to the thickness of the object.
  • Requirement FR 2 691435 A1 discloses an improved corner comprising a prismatic protective case adapted to the shape of the angular portion of a flat object to be protected and made in two complementary parts urged against each other by means of stretched elastics.
  • a prismatic protective case adapted to the shape of the angular portion of a flat object to be protected and made in two complementary parts urged against each other by means of stretched elastics.
  • the impact resistance of such a device is not very efficient, the thickness of the object is no longer protected when the device is in the open position (stretched elastics).
  • Requirement EP 2 684 817 A1 relates to a protective device adjustable to the thickness of objects of various sizes and weights.
  • This device is in the form of a case whose side wall comprises a bellows and high resilience means such as elastics, clamps or springs for adjusting the height of the side wall to the thickness of the object to protect, firmly enclosing the latter.
  • the invention aims to provide a product that does not have the drawbacks of the state of the art.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a device for protecting an object of angular shape, said device being able to adapt to the thickness of the object and having an excellent mechanical resistance to impact.
  • a first aspect of the present invention relates to a protection device for protecting an angular shaped object comprising an upper and a lower part and two side walls connecting said upper and lower parts so as to form a case, in which, in use, all or part of the object to be protected can slip, characterized in that each side wall comprises a bellows and one or more series of notches with a high resilience means for adjusting the distance between the upper and lower parts to the thickness of the object to be protected.
  • a second aspect of the invention relates to a use of the protection device for the protection of window frames, glass panels, solar panels, mirrors, radiators, office furniture and frames.
  • the figure 1 is a first external view in perspective of a device for protecting an object having an angular shape and having, as a means of high resilience, elastics.
  • the side wall comprising a bellows and a series of notches is stretched to be adapted to large thicknesses to be protected.
  • the figure 2 is an internal view of the protective device presented to the figure 1 .
  • the figure 3 is a side view of the protective device presented to the figure 1 .
  • the protective device is compacted and compacted to protect thin objects.
  • the figure 4 is a plan view of the protection device of the invention before folding and fixing the high-resilience means, such as elastics for example.
  • the plan of the protective device as presented to the figure 4 corresponds to the device folded and comprising the means with high resilience as presented in the Figures 1 to 3 .
  • the figure 1 presents a first embodiment of the device of the invention.
  • the protective device 1 as presented to the figure 1 has an angular shape for protecting an angular object. It is shaped like a wedge.
  • the protective device 1 comprises an upper portion 3 and a bottom portion 4 substantially flat and two side walls 5 connecting the two parts 3 and 4 so as to form a protective case to be fixed on the corners of the objects to be protected.
  • Each side wall 5 has a bellows 6 and at least one series of notches 7 adapted to receive links 8 of high-resilience material, such as elastics, for adjusting the distance between the upper parts 3 and lower 4 to the thickness of the object to be protected.
  • the term “bellows” means a wall arranged accordionally, that is to say having zigzag breaks.
  • the length of the zigzag breaks of the bellows is preferably between 1 and 2 cm.
  • the bellows 6 is kept open and extended by exerting a force opposing the restoring force of the links 8. Thus, at rest, this restoring force keeps the device closed.
  • series of notches means an essentially straight notch formed in the side wall 5 arranged accordion. Each series of notches has at least two notches. For example, on the figure 1 each side wall 5 has a series of six notches.
  • the links 8 made of high-resilience material are preferably circular-shaped elastics (without end), that is to say links made of elastomeric material, fixed between the upper 3 and lower 4 parts in the series of notches 7 hollowed out. in each side wall 5.
  • the protective device 1 comprises two lateral walls 5 forming a right angle and interconnected by a circular elastic fixed in the two sets of notches 7 of the side walls 5.
  • the elastic 8 connects the upper and lower parts 4 of the device through the series of notches 7 dug in the two side walls 5.
  • the elastic means and the geometry of the bellows to adapt the height of the device to the thickness of the object to be protected it can vary in general from 2 to 20 cm, preferably from 3 to 15 cm and particularly preferably from 3 to 10 cm.
  • the ranges to be covered are preferably chosen according to the thickness and the weight of the object to be protected.
  • the fall of the object can only be absorbed by the thickness of the bellows layer, the more this layer is extended, and the more it will be thin.
  • the devices according to the invention which are relatively closed with wide bellows in small extension, will preferably be used, while for lighter and less brittle objects the thickness of the bellows may be smaller and the device in strong extension.
  • the side walls 5 are connected by a single elastic. Although a single elastic band is sufficient to firmly grip the object to be protected in the device of the invention, it is possible to superimpose several elastics in a series of notches 7 or to multiply the sets of notches in the same side wall to consolidate the case. Maintaining the protection device on the corner also depends on the presence of a possible overwrap cardboard or shrink film for example. In the presence of a shrink film wrapping the assembly, the protective device will be maintained automatically.
  • the principle of the invention consists in adjusting the height of the side walls 5 exactly to the thickness of the object to be protected and inserting the latter into the protective device so that the object is firmly held in place. inside the protection and protected from shocks.
  • the adjustment of the height of the side wall 5 to the thickness of the object 2 is thus obtained thanks to the combined use of a side wall 5 with bellows 6 and at least one series of notches 7 allowing
  • the lateral wall 5 is thus adjustable between an open position (in extension) and a closed position (at rest) of the protection device 1.
  • the pleated structure of the bellows 6 gives a very high resilience material 8.
  • the lateral wall 5 is thus adjustable between an open position (in extension) and a closed position (at rest). good impact resistance.
  • the figure 4 is a plan view, before folding of the protective device 1 of the invention presented in the Figures 1 to 3 .
  • the device comprises areas A, B, C, D, E, F and G intended to cover, after folding and assembly, the angular portion of the product to be protected.
  • the preferred material for producing the device according to the invention is the single or double corrugated cardboard.
  • the height of the side wall 5 is adjustable between a closed position and open on a scale of 1 to 6, preferably 1 to 4.
  • the side wall 5 has a height of 2 cm, it will be able to extend up to 12 cm in open position but in order to maintain a minimum thickness of the bellows it will not generally exceed an extension factor of 4.
  • the high-resilience means 8 are one or more elastics preferably circular that is to say closed and without free end.
