Description
L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif de stockage de pièces par empilage. Un tel dispositif est particulièrement adapté au stockage de pièces ayant une symétrie de révolution, comme par exemple tous les types de rotors d'un châssis de véhicule, qui ont des formes et des dimensions voisines. Mais le principe de l'invention est également applicable à des pièces de forme prismatique ou n'ayant pas nécessairement une symétrie de révolution. Un dispositif de stockage comprend des plaques intercalaires qui sont généralement destinées à être empilées les unes sur les autres pour former une palette de stockage et/ou de transport.The invention relates to a device for storing parts by stacking. Such a device is particularly suitable for storing parts having a symmetry of revolution, such as for example all types of rotors of a vehicle frame, which have similar shapes and dimensions. But the principle of the invention is also applicable to parts of prismatic shape or not necessarily having a symmetry of revolution. A storage device comprises spacer plates which are generally intended to be stacked one on top of the other to form a storage and / or transport pallet.
Actuellement, une plaque intercalaire est conçue de façon spécifique, pour accueillir un seul type de pièce, dont la géométrie et les dimensions sont parfaitement identifiées et fixes. Une telle plaque est généralement monobloc et comprend des reliefs particuliers et non modifiables, prévus pour recevoir chaque pièce à stocker dans une position prédéfinie et stable. Or, un inconvénient majeur d'une telle plaque intercalaire est qu'elle n'est pas adaptée au stockage de pièces ayant des géométries et des dimensions légèrement différentes. De plus, cette plaque intercalaire spécifique devient obsolète et doit être détruite si la pièce change de dimensions.Currently, a spacer plate is designed specifically to accommodate a single type of part, the geometry and dimensions of which are perfectly identified and fixed. Such a plate is generally in one piece and comprises particular and non-modifiable reliefs, designed to receive each part to be stored in a predefined and stable position. However, a major drawback of such an intermediate plate is that it is not suitable for storing parts having slightly different geometries and dimensions. In addition, this specific spacer plate becomes obsolete and must be destroyed if the part changes dimensions.
L'invention se rapporte notamment à un dispositif de stockage qui présente un caractère modulaire lui permettant de stocker différents types de pièces en termes de forme et de dimensions.The invention relates in particular to a storage device which has a modular nature allowing it to store different types of parts in terms of shape and dimensions.

L'invention a pour objet un dispositif de stockage de pièces, comprenant au moins une plaque intercalaire comportant des emplacements destinés à recevoir chacun l'une desdites pièces, dans lequel les éléments de calage sont fixés de chaque côté d'au moins une plaque superposée.The subject of the invention is a device for storing parts, comprising at least one intermediate plate comprising locations each intended to receive one of said parts, in which the wedging elements are fixed on each side of at least one superimposed plate. .
La principale caractéristique d'un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention, est que ladite plaque comporte deux côtés dotés chacun d'une pluralité d'empreintes, ledit dispositif comprenant des éléments de calage de forme et de dimensions différentes, aptes à venir se placer dans lesdites empreintes et à coopérer avec les pièces, de manière à positionner de façon stable chacune desdites pièces dans un emplacement de la plaque. De cette manière, contrairement aux plaques intercalaires existantes monoblocs avec des compartiments spécifiques prévues pour stocker un seul type de pièce, une plaque intercalaire d'un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention est modulaire et capacitaire dans la mesure où ses compartiments sont variables grâce à la présence des éléments de calage. Un tel dispositif de stockage peut donc accueillir des pièces de géométrie et de dimensions variables. En effet, lesdits compartiments sont réalisées à partir des emplacements prévus pour stocker les pièces, et au moyen d'éléments de calage aptes à venir se fixer dans les empreintes de la plaque intercalaire, la forme et les dimensions des éléments de calage étant dictées par les caractéristiques structurelles des pièces à stocker. Le caractère de modularité de la plaque intercalaire est conféré à la fois par la présence des empreintes qui permettent de placer les éléments de calage à des endroits différents sur ladite plaque, et par la possibilité d'avoir des éléments de calage de géométrie et de dimensions différentes. Les empreintes peuvent revêtir toute forme, et être par exemple contituées de trous ou de rainures. De même, ces empreintes peuvent traverser la plaque intercalaire de part en part. Il est avantageusement supposé qu'une même plaque intercalaire stocke des pièces identiques. Un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention comprend plusieurs plaques intercalaires superposées, lesdites plaques pouvant indifféremment stocker des pièces identiques ou des pièces différentes. Autrement dit chaque plaque intercalaire peut stocker des pièces différentes, ou bien chaque plaque intercalaire stocke des pièces identiques mais qui sont différentes d'une plaque à l'autre. De façon préférentielle, les éléments de calage sont constitués par des pièces solides dont la disposition et l'agencement sur la plaque intercalaire, permettent de créer des compartiments de stockage aptes à stabiliser la position des pièces à stocker. Un élément de calage est constitué par une pièce solide, qui émerge de la plaque intermédiaire. Il est préférentiellement supposé que les éléments de calage sont solidarisés à la plaque intercalaire de façon réversible, pour notamment pouvoir être déplacés et/ou démontés et/ou remplacés. Un compartiment comprend un emplacement prévu pour recevoir une pièce à stocker et les éléments de calage de ladite pièce.The main characteristic of a storage device according to the invention is that said plate has two sides each provided with a plurality impressions, said device comprising wedging elements of different shape and dimensions, able to come to be placed in said impressions and to cooperate with the parts, so as to position each one in a stable manner of said parts in a location of the plate. In this way, unlike the existing monobloc intermediate plates with specific compartments provided for storing a single type of part, an intermediate plate of a storage device according to the invention is modular and capacitive insofar as its compartments are variable thanks to the presence of the wedging elements. Such a storage device can therefore accommodate parts of variable geometry and dimensions. In fact, said compartments are made from the locations provided for storing the parts, and by means of wedging elements capable of being fixed in the indentations of the intermediate plate, the shape and dimensions of the wedging elements being dictated by the structural characteristics of the parts to be stored. The character of modularity of the intermediate plate is conferred both by the presence of the indentations which make it possible to place the wedging elements at different places on said plate, and by the possibility of having wedging elements of geometry and dimensions different. The imprints can take any shape, and for example consist of holes or grooves. Likewise, these impressions can pass right through the intermediate plate. It is advantageously assumed that one and the same intermediate plate stores identical parts. A storage device according to the invention comprises several superimposed intermediate plates, said plates being able to store identical parts or different parts without distinction. In other words, each intermediate plate can store different parts, or else each intermediate plate stores identical parts but which are different from one plate to another. Preferably, the wedging elements are formed by solid parts, the disposition and arrangement of which on the intermediate plate, make it possible to create storage compartments capable of stabilizing the position of the parts to be stored. A wedging element consists of a solid part, which emerges from the intermediate plate. It is preferably assumed that the wedging elements are secured to the intermediate plate in a reversible manner, in particular to be able to be moved and / or dismantled and / or replaced. A compartment comprises a location designed to receive a part to be stored and the wedging elements of said part.
Avantageusement, les empreintes comprennent des trous et des rainures, les rainures permettant d'ajuster la position des éléments de calage sur la plaque en fonction des caractéristiques structurelles des pièces à stocker.Advantageously, the imprints comprise holes and grooves, the grooves making it possible to adjust the position of the wedging elements on the plate according to the structural characteristics of the parts to be stored.
En fonction des besoins, et dans une configuration de superposition de plusieurs plaques intercalaires, un élément de calage peut permettre de caler deux pièces placées au droit l'une de l'autre et sur deux plaques différentes.Depending on requirements, and in a configuration of superimposition of several intermediate plates, a wedging element can make it possible to wedge two parts placed in line with one another and on two different plates.
Préférentiellement, les éléments de calage comprennent des plots. De cette manière, les plots peuvent par exemple délimiter un espace dans lequel sera positionnée une pièce à stocker. Ils peuvent également constituer des saillies sur lesquelles seront emboitées les pièces à stocker.Preferably, the wedging elements comprise studs. In this way, the studs can for example delimit a space in which a part to be stored will be positioned. They can also constitute projections on which the parts to be stored will be nested.
De façon avantageuse, les éléments de calage comprennent des éléments de centrage placés au milieu des emplacements.Advantageously, the wedging elements comprise centering elements placed in the middle of the locations.
Avantageusement, les éléments de calage comprennent des éléments d'enserrement aptes à venir se placer autour de chaque pièce. Ces éléments peuvent être assimilés à des mâchoires qui vont juste venir au contact desdites pièces sans exercer un effort de serrage particulier.Advantageously, the wedging elements comprise clamping elements capable of being placed around each part. These elements can be assimilated to jaws which will just come into contact with said parts without exerting a particular clamping force.
De façon préférentielle, les éléments de calage sont fixés à la plaque au moyen d'une technique à choisir parmi un vissage et un rivetage. En effet, il est important que les éléments de calage soient solidement arrimés à la plaque, pour notamment garantir une stabilité de positionnement des pièces à stocker. De plus, le rivetage et le vissage sont des techniques de fixation réversibles, permettant notamment de démonter des éléments de calage pour les remplacer par des autres éléments de calage d'une autre nature.Preferably, the wedging elements are fixed to the plate by means of a technique to be chosen from among screwing and riveting. Indeed, it is important for the wedging elements to be firmly secured to the plate, in particular to guarantee positioning stability of the parts to be stored. In addition, riveting and screwing are reversible fixing techniques, making it possible in particular to remove wedging elements to replace them with other wedging elements of another nature.
Préférentiellement, la plaque est thermoformée et en polyéthylène ou ABS. ABS signifie acrylonitrile butadiène styrène. De cette manière, la plaque intercalaire possède une bonne tenue mécanique tout en demeurant légère.Preferably, the plate is thermoformed and made of polyethylene or ABS. ABS stands for acrylonitrile butadiene styrene. In this way, the intermediate plate has good mechanical strength while remaining light.
Un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention comprend au moins deux plaques intercalaires superposées, des éléments de calage étant fixés de chaque côté de certaines desdites plaques superposées. Pour une telle configuration, un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention est assimilable à une palette de stockage comprenant plusieurs niveaux de stockage superposés. En outre, une plaque intercalaire dotée d'éléments de calage sur ses deux côtés va contribuer à assurer le stockage de pièces sur deux niveaux successifs d'un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention. Avantageusement, la plaque intercalaire est plane et de faible épaisseur et les deux côtés de ladite plaque sont constitués par deux faces planes.A storage device according to the invention comprises at least two superimposed intermediate plates, wedging elements being fixed on each side of some of said superposed plates. For such a configuration, a storage device according to the invention is comparable to a storage pallet comprising several superimposed storage levels. In addition, an intermediate plate provided with wedging elements on its two sides will help to ensure the storage of parts on two successive levels of a storage device according to the invention. Advantageously, the intermediate plate is flat and of small thickness and the two sides of said plate consist of two flat faces.
L'invention a pour autre objet une utilisation d'un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention pour le stockage de pièces ayant une symétrie de révolution et regroupant tous les rotors d'un châssis de véhicule. En effet, ces rotors qui peuvent par exemple comprendre des freins à disque et des freins à tambour, sont des pièces ayant une symétrie de révolution et qui ont des formes et des dimensions voisines. Il suffit donc de monter sur chaque plaque intercalaire les éléments de calage dont la forme et les dimensions sont adaptées à un rotor spécifique pour pouvoir stocker lesdits rotors sur plusieurs plaques intercalaires superposées.Another object of the invention is the use of a storage device according to the invention for the storage of parts having a symmetry of revolution and grouping together all the rotors of a vehicle frame. Indeed, these rotors which may for example comprise disc brakes and drum brakes, are parts having a symmetry of revolution and which have similar shapes and dimensions. It is therefore sufficient to mount on each intermediate plate the wedging elements whose shape and dimensions are adapted to a specific rotor in order to be able to store said rotors on several superimposed intermediate plates.
Un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention présente l'avantage d'être modulaire, tout en demeurant d'un poids et d'un encombrement constant par rapport aux dispositifs de stockage existants. Il a de plus l'avantage de permettre de réaliser des économies dans la mesure où actuellement il est nécessaire de concevoir une plaque intercalaire spécifique pour chaque type de pièces à stocker. Il présente enfin l'avantage d'être souple d'utilisation, car il peut être monté au dernier moment en fonction du type de pièces à stocker. Cette souplesse se traduit notamment par le fait qu'il est facile et rapide de changer la configuration d'une plaque intercalaire pour passer d'un produit à conditionner vers un autre.A storage device according to the invention has the advantage of being modular, while remaining of constant weight and size compared to existing storage devices. It also has the advantage of allowing savings to be made insofar as it is currently necessary to design a specific spacer plate for each type of parts to be stored. Finally, it has the advantage of being flexible in use, because it can be mounted at the last moment depending on the type of parts to be stored. This flexibility is reflected in particular by the fact that it is quick and easy to change the configuration of an intermediate plate to switch from one product to be packaged to another.

Les plaques intercalaires, les éléments de calage ainsi que les pièces à stocker qui ont été décrits ci-avant, sont des exemples destinés à illustrer un dispositif de stockage selon l'invention et à bien comprendre son principe. Il est bien entendu que l'invention n'est pas limitée à ces seuls exemples, et qu'elle s'étend à tout type d'éléments de calage et à tout type de pièce à stocker. De même le nombre de pièces à stocker sur chacune des plaques intercalaires est variable en fonction des besoins rencontrés, et ne présente a priori aucune limite particulière si ce ne sont les dimensions des plaques intercalaires qui ne peuvent pas être infinies.The spacer plates, the wedging elements as well as the parts to be stored which have been described above, are examples intended to illustrate a storage device according to the invention and to understand its principle. It is understood that the invention is not limited to these examples alone, and that it extends to any type of wedging element and to any type of part to be stored. Likewise, the number of parts to be stored on each of the intermediate plates is variable according to the needs encountered, and does not a priori present any particular limit if it is not the dimensions of the intermediate plates which cannot be infinite.
