Description

DOMAINE TECHNIQUE DE L'INVENTIONTECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention concerne un Godet équipant un véhicule destiné à déplacer, transporter, déverser et épandre sur une épaisseur choisie un matériau en vrac.The present invention relates to a bucket fitted to a vehicle intended to move, transport, dump and spread a bulk material over a selected thickness.

L'épandage ce définit comme étant d'étendre un produit, une matière sur le sol en le dispersant.Spreading is defined as being to spread a product, a material on the ground by dispersing it.

ETAT DE LA TECHNIQUESTATE OF THE ART

L'utilisation d'un épandage nécessite une machine spécifique qui est lourde à manœuvrer.The use of a spreading requires a specific machine which is heavy to maneuver.

Une autre manière de réaliser un épandage est de le faire manuellement avec des opérateurs. Dans ce cas, la pénibilité du travail reste importante car les charges à déplacer sont lourdes et répétitives.Another way of spreading is to do it manually with operators. In this case, the arduousness of the work remains important because the loads to be moved are heavy and repetitive.

Le document FR2779456 décrit une lame niveleuse équipant un véhicule et destinée à la manutention de matériaux en vrac. Toutefois ce dispositif n'est pas prévu pour régler une épaisseur d'un épandage.The document FR2779456 describes a leveling blade fitted to a vehicle and intended for handling bulk materials. However, this device is not intended to adjust a thickness of a spreading.

Le document US4055255 décrit un véhicule de travaux comportant un godet. Le godet permet de choisir la quantité du matériau en vrac à déverser mais en aucun cas le godet présenté n'est prévu pour régler une épaisseur de la couche du matériau pendant la phase d'épandage.The document US4055255 describes a work vehicle comprising a bucket. The bucket makes it possible to choose the quantity of bulk material to be discharged, but in no case is the bucket presented intended to adjust a thickness of the material layer during the spreading phase.

OBJET DE L'INVENTIONOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks.

A cet effet, selon un premier aspect, la présente invention vise un godet pour un véhicule de travaux destiné à charger, déplacer, transporter, déverser et épandre un matériau en vrac, le godet comporte deux panneaux latéraux s'étendant de chaque côté d'un panneau de chargement, ledit panneau de chargement comporte un bord de chargement et un bord de déchargement, remarquable en ce que le godet comporte également :

  • un panneau de support d'un système de réglage adapté pour régler l'épaisseur de la couche du matériau en vrac à épandre sur un sol, ledit panneau de support étant situé de l'autre côté du godet par rapport au panneau de chargement,
  • un panneau d'ouverture comportant une trappe comportant un bord d'ouverture, lorsque la trappe est en position de fermeture le bord d'ouverture est adjacent au bord de déchargement du panneau de chargement, ladite position de fermeture est prévue pour retenir le matériau en vrac, lorsque la trappe est en position d'ouverture, le bord d'ouverture s'écarte du bord de déchargement du panneau de chargement et une ouverture est crée, ladite ouverture est prévue pour laisser s'écouler le matériau en vrac,
  • le système de réglage comporte un rouleau mobile en rotation situé à l'arrière et sous le godet et adapté à tourner dans le sens de rotation des roues du véhicule et à reposer sur le sol pendant l'épandage,
  • une attache de fixation prévue pour être fixée au véhicule, ladite attache étant logée dans un espace mobile en translation vertical configuré pour laisser un jeu en translation vertical et ladite attache de fixation est mobile en rotation autour d'un axe de rotation perpendiculaire au panneau de support de sorte à tourner le godet par rapport au sol.
To this end, according to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a bucket for a work vehicle intended to load, move, transport, dump and spread a bulk material, the bucket has two side panels extending on each side of the bucket. a loading panel, said loading panel comprises a loading edge and an unloading edge, remarkable in that the bucket also comprises:
  • a support panel of an adjustment system adapted to adjust the thickness of the layer of the bulk material to be spread on a ground, said support panel being located on the other side of the bucket from the loading panel,
  • an opening panel comprising a hatch comprising an opening edge, when the hatch is in the closed position the open edge is adjacent to the unloading edge of the loading panel, said closed position is provided to retain the material in bulk, when the hatch is in the open position, the opening edge moves away from the unloading edge of the loading panel and an opening is created, said opening is provided to allow the bulk material to flow out,
  • the adjustment system comprises a mobile rotating roller located at the rear and under the bucket and adapted to turn in the direction of rotation of the vehicle wheels and to rest on the ground during spreading,
  • a fastening clip intended to be fixed to the vehicle, said fastener being housed in a space which is movable in vertical translation configured to leave a clearance in vertical translation and said fastener is movable in rotation about an axis of rotation perpendicular to the panel of support so as to rotate the bucket relative to the ground.

Grâce à ces dispositions, le godet possède plusieurs fonctions : charger, déplacer, transporter, déverser ou épandre sur une épaisseur choisie un matériau en vrac.Thanks to these arrangements, the bucket has several functions: loading, moving, transporting, dumping or spreading a bulk material over a chosen thickness.

Ainsi, l'épaisseur du matériau en vrac déversé pendant la phase d'épandage est maintenu à niveau fixe à l'aide du rouleau quelles que soient les différences de niveaux du sol rencontrées.Thus, the thickness of the bulk material discharged during the spreading phase is kept at a fixed level using the roller regardless of the differences in soil levels encountered.

L'attache de fixation est flottante et s'adapte au sol pour assurer la même épaisseur du matériau vrac lors de l'épandage. Le godet permet de suivre le contour de la route. Le godet suit parfaitement le support et s'adapte à tous types de chargeur (chargeuse, tractopelle, télescopique, tracteur...).The attachment clip is floating and adapts to the ground to ensure the same thickness of the bulk material when spreading. The bucket makes it possible to follow the contour of the road. The bucket follows the support perfectly and adapts to all types of loaders (loader, backhoe loader, telehandler, tractor ...).

Le godet permet de :

  • soulager énormément le personnel (moins de manutention : brouettes et raclettes),
  • gagner du temps de réalisation (vitesse d'épandage),
  • maitriser l'épaisseur de l'épandage,
  • assurer une finition manuelle (pas de différence main-machine, pas de joints visibles entre les passes) comme avec un finisseur pour la réalisation d'enrober,
The bucket is used to:
  • greatly relieve the staff (less handling: wheelbarrows and squeegees),
  • save production time (spreading speed),
  • control the thickness of the spreading,
  • ensure a manual finish (no hand-machine difference, no visible joints between the passes) as with a paver for the realization of embedding,

Autres avantages :

  • simple d'utilisation,
  • peu d'usure, (pas d'engrenages)
Other advantages :
  • easy to use,
  • little wear, (no gears)

Dans un mode de réalisation, le jeu vertical de l'attache de fixation est de l'ordre de 0,5 à 50 cm, de préférence de 1 à 15 cm.In one embodiment, the vertical play of the fixing clip is of the order of 0.5 to 50 cm, preferably 1 to 15 cm.

Dans un mode de réalisation, ledit rouleau est mobile en translation verticale par rapport au sol de sorte à varier la hauteur du godet par rapport au sol. Ainsi, on choisit l'épaisseur pour d'épandage.In one embodiment, said roller is movable in vertical translation relative to the ground so as to vary the height of the bucket relative to the ground. Thus, we choose the thickness for spreading.

Dans un mode de réalisation, la trappe est mobile en translation rectiligne supportée par des glissières de chaque côté de la trappe, ladite mobilité est actionnée par des vérins.In one embodiment, the hatch is movable in rectilinear translation supported by slides on each side of the hatch, said mobility is actuated by jacks.

Dans un mode de réalisation, la longueur du rouleau est au moins égale à la moitié de la longueur du godet.In one embodiment, the length of the roll is at least half the length of the bucket.

Dans un mode de réalisation, le godet comporte une pluralité de trappes mobile en translation rectiligne.In one embodiment, the bucket comprises a plurality of doors movable in rectilinear translation.

Ainsi, le godet peut déverser une certaine quantité de matériau en vrac uniquement d'un coté ou d'un autre. De plus, le fait de l'ouvrir sur une certaine longueur permet de varier la largeur de la bande de matériau en vrac à épandre. Un autre avantage est par exemple d'ouvrir une trappe au dessus d'une brouette et de pouvoir déverser matériau en vrac afin de remplir la brouette.Thus, the bucket can dump a certain amount of bulk material only from one side or the other. In addition, the fact of opening it to a certain length makes it possible to vary the width of the strip of bulk material to be spread. Another advantage is for example to open a hatch above a wheelbarrow and to be able to dump loose material in order to fill the wheelbarrow.

Dans un mode de réalisation, il comporte une surface réduisant l'ouverture crée par le panneau d'ouverture dans la position d'ouverture.In one embodiment, it has a surface reducing the opening created by the opening panel in the open position.

Dans un mode de réalisation, la surface est mobile en translation par un élément de réglage de la position de la surface par rapport à l'ouverture crée par le panneau d'ouverture dans la position d'ouverture.In one embodiment, the surface is movable in translation by an element for adjusting the position of the surface with respect to the opening created by the opening panel in the open position.

L'invention concerne également un véhicule équipé d'un godet décrit précédemment.The invention also relates to a vehicle equipped with a bucket described above.

DESCRIPTION D'EXEMPLES DE REALISATION DE L'INVENTIONDESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

Les figures 1 et 2 représentent un schéma en perspectives du chargement d'un matériau en vrac dans le godet. Ces deux figures montrent l'étape du chargement du matériau en vrac selon deux vues différentes.The figures 1 and 2 show a perspective diagram of the loading of bulk material into the bucket. These two figures show the step of loading the bulk material in two different views.

Le chargement concerne plusieurs types de matériaux :

  • tout venant de carrière 0/20, 0/31,5, ...
  • sable (stabilisé),
  • gravillons,
  • béton ciment (selon la teneur en eau),
  • béton bitumeux (enrobé).
  • ...
The loading concerns several types of materials:
  • everything coming from career 0/20, 0 / 31.5, ...
  • sand (stabilized),
  • chippings,
  • concrete cement (depending on the water content),
  • bituminous concrete (coated).
  • ...

Le godet est utilisé pour charger le matériau en vrac à partir d'une bute. Dans un autre exemple de réalisation, le godet est utilisé pour récupérer un matériau en vrac sous une trappe d'un camion.The bucket is used to load bulk material from a stopper. In another exemplary embodiment, the bucket is used to recover bulk material under a hatch of a truck.

Les figures 3 et 4 représentent un schéma du déversement d'un matériau en vrac depuis le godet. Ces deux figures montrent une étape du déversement du matériau en vrac selon deux vues différentes.The figures 3 and 4 show a diagram of the discharge of bulk material from the bucket. These two figures show a step in the discharge of the bulk material according to two different views.

Dans ce cas, la trappe d'ouverture permet au matériau en vrac d'être libéré et de se déverser.In this case, the opening hatch allows the bulk material to be released and poured out.

Les figures 5 et 6 représentent un schéma de l'épandage d'un matériau en vrac avec le godet objet de la présente invention. Ces deux figures montrent une étape d'épandage du matériau en vrac selon deux vues différentes.The figures 5 and 6 represent a diagram of the spreading of a bulk material with the bucket object of the present invention. These two figures show a step of spreading the bulk material according to two different views.

Plus particulièrement la figure 6 montre le rouleau réglé de sorte que le bas du godet est maintenu à une certaine distance du sol. De cette façon, le rouleau assure l'épaisseur du matériau en vrac. Le réglage de cette distance règle l'épaisseur de la couche de matériau répartie après la phase de l'épandage.More particularly the figure 6 shows the roller adjusted so that the bottom of the bucket is kept a certain distance from the ground. In this way, the roller ensures the thickness of the bulk material. Adjusting this distance adjusts the thickness of the material layer distributed after the spreading phase.

Le matériau sort du godet par la trappe d'ouverture qui libère le matériau en vrac par effet de gravité.The material exits the bucket through the opening hatch which releases the bulk material by the effect of gravity.

La figure 7 représente le godet sur laquelle il est montré les manivelles 26. Il est montré le système de réglage 25, le rouleau 27 et le panneau de support 22.The figure 7 shows the bucket on which the cranks 26 are shown. The adjustment system 25, the roller 27 and the support panel 22 are shown.

La figure 8 représente une vue éclatée d'un godet. Il est montré deux panneaux latéraux 20 s'étendant de chaque côté d'un panneau de chargement 21, le panneau de support 22 sur lequel est fixé le système de réglage 25 avec le rouleau 27 et les manivelles 26. Il est montré également le panneau d'ouverture 23 comportant une trappe 24.The figure 8 shows an exploded view of a bucket. There is shown two side panels 20 extending from either side of a loading panel 21, the support panel 22 to which the adjustment system 25 is fixed with the roller 27 and the cranks 26. Also shown is the panel. opening 23 comprising a hatch 24.

Le panneau de chargement 21 comporte quatre bords, deux bords reliant les panneaux latéraux 20, un bord de chargement 211 délimitant une partie de l'ouverture principale du godet, un bord de déchargement 212 délimitant une partie d'une ouverture secondaire. Le bord de déchargement est de l'autre côté du panneau par rapport au bord de chargement 211. L'ouverture secondaire est commandée par l'ouverture de la trappe 24 sur le panneau d'ouverture 23.The loading panel 21 has four edges, two edges connecting the side panels 20, a loading edge 211 delimiting a part of the main opening of the bucket, an unloading edge 212 delimiting part of a secondary opening. The unloading edge is on the other side of the panel from the loading edge 211. The opening secondary is controlled by the opening of the hatch 24 on the opening panel 23.

Les figures 9 et 10 représentent deux variantes de godet avec deux types d'attache de fixation 28 différentes pour un type de véhicule. Les deux attaches reprennent les mêmes fonctionnalités mais diffèrent uniquement système de fixation au véhicule. L'attache est réalisée pour qu'elle s'adapte au véhicule choisi tout en gardant la rotation et la translation pour que l'attache soit flottante vis-à-vis du sol.The figures 9 and 10 show two variants of the bucket with two types of attachment 28 different for one type of vehicle. The two fasteners have the same functions but only differ from the system for fixing to the vehicle. The attachment is made so that it adapts to the chosen vehicle while keeping the rotation and translation so that the attachment is floating with respect to the ground.

La figure 11 représente une vue de côté du godet. Il est visible un rouleau relié au système de réglage 25. Le rouleau 27 est en acier et situé à l'arrière du godet. Lorsque le godet est en position épandage le rouleau 27 repose sur le sol.The figure 11 shows a side view of the bucket. It is visible a roller connected to the adjustment system 25. The roller 27 is made of steel and located at the rear of the bucket. When the bucket is in the spreading position, the roller 27 rests on the ground.

Le système de réglage 25 comporte deux manivelles manuelles (une de chaque côté du godet), celui-ci est réglable en hauteur et permet ainsi de choisir l'épaisseur E à épandre. Le sol est représenté en pointillé et la différence entre le fond du godet et le sol est représentée par la référence E.The adjustment system 25 comprises two manual cranks (one on each side of the bucket), the latter is adjustable in height and thus makes it possible to choose the thickness E to be spread. The ground is represented in dotted lines and the difference between the bottom of the bucket and the ground is represented by the reference E.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, l'épaisseur est différente d'un côté à l'autre.In an exemplary embodiment, the thickness is different from side to side.

Le rouleau 27 a l'avantage d'avoir une portance sur toute la longueur du godet évitant ainsi les sous épaisseurs.The roller 27 has the advantage of having a lift over the entire length of the bucket thus avoiding under thicknesses.

La figure 12 représente une vue de derrière du godet. Il est montré une attache de fixation 28 sur laquelle la position de l'attache de fixation 28 est sur inclinée par rapport au godet. En effet, l'attache de fixation 28 possède une mobilité transversale (flèche A) par rapport au panneau de support 22.The figure 12 shows a rear view of the bucket. There is shown an attachment clip 28 in which the position of the attachment clip 28 is at an incline relative to the bucket. Indeed, the fastening clip 28 has transverse mobility (arrow A) relative to the support panel 22.

L'attache de fixation 28 possède également la faculté de bouger selon un axe de rotation 29 par rapport au sol (flèche B). L'axe de rotation est perpendiculaire au panneau de support 22.The fastening clip 28 also has the ability to move along an axis of rotation 29 relative to the ground (arrow B). The axis of rotation is perpendicular to the support panel 22.

La figure 13 représente une vue en perspective du godet monté sur un véhicule selon un exemple de réalisation.The figure 13 shows a perspective view of the bucket mounted on a vehicle according to an exemplary embodiment.

Dans une variante, le rouleau mobile 27 est remplacé par un système de chenille.In a variant, the movable roller 27 is replaced by a caterpillar system.

Dans un exemple de réalisation, la largeur du godet est de 2 m. Il est compris entre 1 et 3,5 m.In an exemplary embodiment, the width of the bucket is 2 m. It is between 1 and 3.5 m.

Dans un autre exemple de réalisation, le godet comporte plusieurs trappes d'ouverture permettant de varier la largeur d'épandage.In another exemplary embodiment, the bucket comprises several opening hatches making it possible to vary the spreading width.

Dans un autre exemple de réalisation, la trappe d'ouverture comprend un système de glissière pour faire coulisser la trappe de gauche à droite, faisant ainsi varier la largeur d'épandage.In another exemplary embodiment, the opening hatch comprises a slide system for sliding the hatch from left to right, thus varying the spreading width.

Le diamètre du rouleau est de 20 cm. Il est compris entre 10 et 50 cm.The diameter of the roll is 20 cm. It is between 10 and 50 cm.

Dans une autre variante non représentée, le godet comprend une plaque positionné au dessus du godet laissant une largeur d'ouverture variable entre 0,5 et 5 cm de manière épandre du gravillon en inclinant le godet.In another variant not shown, the bucket comprises a plate positioned above the bucket leaving a variable opening width between 0.5 and 5 cm so as to spread gravel by tilting the bucket.
