Description

L'invention concerne un module pour la réalisation notamment d'une clôture, comportant un poteau d'axe X, un panneau, des moyens d'assemblage du panneau au poteau, ainsi que des moyens d'assemblage du module à un autre module, ledit poteau étant équipé d'au moins un logement d'axe X1 parallèle à l'axe X délimité par un fond s'étendant dans un plan parallèle à l'axe X et deux parois latérales opposées.The invention relates to a module for the realization in particular of a fence, comprising an X-axis post, a panel, means for assembling the panel to the post, and means for assembling the module to another module, said post being equipped with at least one housing X1 axis parallel to the X axis delimited by a bottom extending in a plane parallel to the axis X and two opposite side walls.

De manière classique, les claustras, clôtures, ou dispositifs similaires sont constitués de panneaux maintenus par des poteaux, lesquels peuvent être, suivant le cas, fixés sur un support de type muret ou directement scellés au sol par des moyens appropriés.Conventionally, trellises, fences, or similar devices consist of panels held by posts, which may be, as appropriate, fixed on a wall-type support or directly sealed to the ground by appropriate means.

Il est notoire que les panneaux se dilatent et se rétractent en permanence, sous l'effet des variations de températures journalières ou saisonnières auxquelles ils sont soumis. Ils se déplacent par conséquent entre les poteaux, dont la position reste au contraire sensiblement immuable du fait de leur fixation sur un support. Or, bien que les mouvements dus aux dilatations/rétractations ne représentent que de faibles déplacements, de l'ordre de quelques millimètres, les forces qu'ils occasionnent peuvent être très importantes. Afin de prévenir une déformation intempestive des panneaux ou une détérioration des fixations des poteaux, tous les mouvements de matière qui découlent d'une dilatation/rétractation doivent donc pouvoir être absorbés par le milieu environnant.It is known that the panels expand and shrink permanently, under the effect of daily or seasonal temperature variations to which they are subject. They therefore move between the posts, the position of which remains on the contrary substantially immutable because of their attachment to a support. However, although the movements due to dilation / retraction represent only small displacements, of the order of a few millimeters, the forces they cause can be very important. In order to prevent an inadvertent deformation of the panels or a deterioration of the fasteners of the posts, all the movements of matter resulting from a dilation / retraction must therefore be able to be absorbed by the surrounding environment.

Il est également connu que les phénomènes de dilatation/rétractation que subissent les éléments de clôture complexifient notablement les opérations de pose. En effet, au cours de ces dernières, avec les dispositifs de clôture classiques, les opérateurs doivent nécessairement tenir compte de la température ambiante pour déterminer une distance d'implantation entre deux poteaux successifs qui soit adaptée aussi bien à la température du moment d'implantation qu'à une température pouvant être notablement différente de cette dernière. Ainsi, lors de la pose, les opérateurs sont amenés à étudier au préalable le contexte environnemental puis sont contraints d'effectuer des calculs et des prises de mesure répétées avant de fixer les éléments les uns après les autres aux emplacements déterminés sur le support concerné. Une telle manière de procéder présente l'inconvénient d'être chronophage et souvent approximative, et tend par conséquent à augmenter le coût de la main d'oeuvre sans pour autant garantir un résultat toujours irréprochable.It is also known that the expansion / retraction phenomena experienced by the closure elements significantly complicate the laying operations. Indeed, during the latter, with the conventional fence devices, the operators must necessarily take into account the ambient temperature to determine an implantation distance between two successive poles that is adapted to the temperature of the implantation moment as well. at a temperature that can be significantly different from the latter. Thus, during installation, the operators are required to study the environmental context in advance and then are forced to perform calculations and repeated measurements before fixing the elements one after the other at the locations determined on the support concerned. Such a procedure has the disadvantage of being time consuming and often approximate, and therefore tends to increase the cost of labor without guaranteeing an always flawless result.

Par ailleurs, les clôtures, claustras et autres cloisons de type similaire doivent pouvoir s'adapter à la configuration du lieu d'implantation et permettre aussi bien un alignement des différents panneaux, que la réalisation d'un angle entre deux panneaux consécutifs.In addition, fences, screens and other similar type of partitions must be able to adapt to the configuration of the location and allow both an alignment of the different panels, as the realization of an angle between two consecutive panels.

Des solutions ont d'ores et déjà été proposées pour répondre à certaines de ces problématiques.Solutions have already been proposed to address some of these issues.

Le présent demandeur notamment, a développé un dispositif de fixation d'un cadre de panneau à un poteau, de structure spécifique, décrite dans la publication FR 2 997 121 et qui permet à la fois de pallier les problèmes de dilatation/rétractation des panneaux et d'installer des clôtures comportant des angles. Il s'avère cependant que la solution prévue conduit à un aspect esthétique de la clôture qui ne répond pas toujours aux attentes de la clientèle. De plus, elle suppose la mise en oeuvre de nombreux éléments structurels qui contribuent à complexifier la fabrication et l'installation de la clôture et sont susceptibles d'usure, ce qui se répercute sur le coût total de l'installation.The present applicant in particular has developed a device for fixing a panel frame to a post, of specific structure, described in the publication FR 2,997,121,121 and that allows both to overcome the problems of expansion / retraction of the panels and to install fences with angles. However, it turns out that the planned solution leads to an aesthetic appearance of the fence that does not always meet the expectations of customers. In addition, it involves the implementation of many structural elements that contribute to complexity in the manufacture and installation of the fence and are likely to wear, which affects the total cost of the installation.

Une autre solution est encore décrite dans la publication WO 2015/022665 . Elle repose sur la mise en oeuvre de moyens d'assemblage des panneaux sur les poteaux comportant des gorges dont les parois sont élastiquement déformables et prévues aptes à absorber les mouvements des panneaux. Bien que le problème lié à la dilatation/rétractation des panneaux soit abordé, ce document ne décrit cependant aucune solution permettant d'installer deux panneaux consécutifs en angle.Another solution is still described in the publication WO 2015/022665 . It is based on the implementation of assembly means of the panels on the posts having grooves whose walls are elastically deformable and provided able to absorb the movements of the panels. Although the problem related to the expansion / retraction of the panels is addressed, however, this document does not describe any solution for installing two consecutive panels angled.

Le document FR 3 041 013 propose quant à lui d'intercaler, entre les poteaux et les panneaux d'une clôture, des éléments tampons destinés à absorber les forces issues des phénomènes de dilatation/rétractation des panneaux. Là encore cependant, aucune solution pour la réalisation éventuelle d'angles entre les panneaux n'est proposée.The document FR 3 041 013 proposes for him to insert, between the posts and the panels of a fence, buffer elements intended to absorb the forces resulting from the phenomena of expansion / retraction of the panels. Again, however, no solution for the possible realization of angles between the panels is proposed.

Le but de la présente invention est par conséquent de proposer une solution qui permette de pallier les contraintes liées à la dilatation/rétractation de panneaux de clôture, claustras ou similaires, supportés par des poteaux, de sorte à éviter toute déformation ou détérioration intempestive de la cloison réalisée et ainsi garantir sa longévité, une telle solution étant par ailleurs conçue apte à permettre une pose accélérée, ne nécessitant aucun calcul de la part des opérateurs au niveau du chantier, et permettant le cas échéant une implantation dans laquelle deux panneaux consécutifs forment entre eux un angle.The purpose of the present invention is therefore to provide a solution that makes it possible to overcome the constraints related to the expansion / retraction of fence panels, trellises or the like, supported by posts, so as to avoid any deformation or inadvertent deterioration of the partition made and thus guarantee its longevity, such a solution being also designed to allow an accelerated installation, requiring no calculation from the operators at the site, and allowing where appropriate an implementation in which two consecutive panels form between them an angle.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un module du genre indiqué en préambule, caractérisé en ce que lesdits moyens d'assemblage du panneau au poteau comportent un profilé conçu apte à s'étendre entre lesdites parois latérales, pour fermer ledit logement, ledit profilé étant monté mobile en translation dans ledit logement le long d'un axe perpendiculaire à l'axe X et présentant une face externe pourvue de moyens de solidarisation dudit panneau.For this purpose, the invention relates to a module of the kind indicated in the preamble, characterized in that said assembly means of the panel to the post comprise a profile designed adapted to extend between said sidewalls, to close said housing, said section being movably mounted in translation in said housing along an axis perpendicular to the X axis and having an outer face provided with means for securing said panel.

Conformément à une variante de réalisation préférentielle, ledit profilé et ledit logement comportent des moyens de liaison par emboîtement élastique.According to a preferred embodiment, said section and said housing comprise means of connection by elastic interlocking.

Selon une caractéristique additionnelle, la présente invention prévoit par ailleurs que lesdits moyens de liaison par emboîtement élastique peuvent comporter des moyens aptes à permettre le déplacement en translation dudit profilé dans ledit logement.According to an additional characteristic, the present invention furthermore provides that said means of connection by elastic interlocking may comprise means able to allow the displacement in translation of said profile in said housing.

Dans ce cas, lesdits moyens de liaison par emboîtement élastique sont conçus de manière telle que lors du déplacement en translation du profilé par rapport audit logement, la face externe du profilé est située dans le plan passant par les bords libres des parois latérales opposées du logement ou dans un plan parallèle, en retrait vers l'intérieur du logement.In this case, said elastic interlocking connection means are designed such that during the translational movement of the profile relative to said housing, the outer face of the profile is located in the plane passing through the free edges of the opposite side walls of the housing or in a parallel plane, recessed towards the interior of the housing.

Lesdits moyens de liaison par emboîtement élastique peuvent par exemple présenter une structure dans laquelle ils comportent au moins une coulisse et au moins un rail, s'étendant respectivement le long de la face interne du profilé et le long du fond dudit logement ou inversement, ladite coulisse étant délimitée par deux flancs longitudinaux en « L », définissant des rebords orientés vers l'intérieur de ladite coulisse, tandis que ledit rail comporte deux ailes longitudinales symétriques présentant chacune un premier tronçon relié audit fond ou à ladite face interne, un second tronçon dont le bord libre est replié vers l'extérieur du rail, ainsi qu'un épaulement formé entre lesdits premier et second tronçons et s'étendant en face du bord libre replié du second tronçon.Said elastic interlocking connection means may for example have a structure in which they comprise at least one slide and at least one rail, extending respectively along the inner face of the profile and along the bottom of said housing or vice versa, said slide being delimited by two longitudinal flanks in "L", defining flanges oriented towards the inside of said slide, while said rail comprises two symmetrical longitudinal wings each having a first section connected to said bottom or to said inner face, a second section whose free edge is folded towards the outside of the rail, and a shoulder formed between said first and second sections and extending opposite the folded free edge of the second section.

Conformément à une variante de réalisation, la présente invention prévoit avantageusement que ledit logement définit le volume interne ou au moins une partie du volume interne du poteau qui est creux.According to an alternative embodiment, the present invention advantageously provides that said housing defines the internal volume or at least a portion of the internal volume of the pole which is hollow.

Il est également envisagé que, dans d'autres cas, le poteau comporte au moins un montant d'axe X2 parallèle à l'axe X relié à sa paroi externe et définissant le logement.It is also envisaged that, in other cases, the post comprises at least one amount of axis X2 parallel to the axis X connected to its outer wall and defining the housing.

Dans ces deux cas, le profilé peut définir une partie de la paroi périphérique du poteau ou dudit montant. Selon une autre variante, dans laquelle le panneau comporte des traverses reliées par des montants, le profilé peut constituer au moins un montant situé à une extrémité dudit panneau.In both cases, the profile may define a portion of the peripheral wall of the post or said amount. According to another variant, in which the panel comprises crosspieces connected by uprights, the profile may constitute at least one amount located at one end of said panel.

Conformément à une caractéristique additionnelle de l'invention, le volume interne du poteau peut contenir au moins un second logement symétrique au logement par rapport à l'axe X. Ou selon une autre variante de réalisation, le poteau peut comporter au moins un deuxième montant d'axe X3 parallèle à l'axe X définissant un second logement délimité par un fond et deux parois latérales opposées, ledit deuxième montant étant relié à la paroi externe dudit poteau de manière telle que le plan contenant l'axe X3 forme un angle avec le plan contenant l'axe X2, ledit angle étant choisi en fonction de la position angulaire relative souhaitée de deux panneaux destinés à être assemblés au poteau. Il convient de noter que dans cette dernière variante de réalisation, le poteau peut présenter une section transversale circulaire.According to an additional feature of the invention, the internal volume of the post may contain at least a second housing symmetrical to the housing relative to the axis X. Or according to another embodiment, the post may comprise at least a second amount X3 axis parallel to the X axis defining a second housing defined by a bottom and two opposite side walls, said second upright being connected to the outer wall of said pole so that the plane containing the axis X3 forms an angle with the plane containing the axis X2, said angle being chosen according to the desired relative angular position of two panels intended to be assembled to the pole. It should be noted that in this latter embodiment, the post may have a circular cross section.

Il convient encore de noter que, conformément à l'invention, les moyens d'assemblage d'un module à un autre module peuvent comporter une paroi conçue apte à s'étendre entre lesdites parois latérales du second logement dont ledit poteau peut être pourvu, pour fermer ledit second logement, ladite paroi étant montée fixe sur ledit second logement ou mobile en translation dans ledit second logement le long d'un axe Y perpendiculaire à l'axe X et présentant une face externe pourvue de moyens de solidarisation du panneau du second moduleIt should also be noted that, in accordance with the invention, the means for assembling a module to another module may comprise a wall designed adapted to extend between said side walls of the second housing of which said post may be provided, to close said second housing, said wall being fixedly mounted on said second housing or movable in translation in said second housing along a Y axis perpendicular to the X axis and having an outer face provided with means for securing the panel of the second module

The understanding of this description will be facilitated with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
  • the Figures 1 to 3 represent cross-sectional views of a pole of a module according to the invention housing a housing in its internal volume, said views illustrating different positions that can be adopted by the profile in said housing,

  • the figure 5 illustrates a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of a pole of a module according to the invention comprising two housing defining amounts connected to the outer wall of the pole and whose funds form an angle between them.

En référence aux figures, la présente invention a pour objet un module comportant un poteau 1, 10 d'axe X, un panneau 2, et des moyens d'assemblage du panneau 2 au poteau 1, 10, ces éléments permettant la réalisation d'une cloison de séparation telle que notamment une clôture, un claustra, ou similaire, comportant un nombre n de panneaux 2 supportés par des poteaux 1, 10. De manière classique, les éléments constitutifs d'un tel module peuvent être réalisés en un matériau tel que l'aluminium, ou en tout autre matériau présentant des propriétés équivalentes.With reference to the figures, the present invention relates to a module comprising a pole 1, 10 of axis X, a panel 2, and assembly means of the panel 2 to 1, 10, these elements allowing the realization of a partition such as including a fence, a trellis, or the like, having a number n of panels 2 supported by posts 1, 10. Typically, the constituent elements such a module may be made of a material such as aluminum, or any other material having equivalent properties.

Conformément à l'invention, le poteau 1, 10 présente au moins un logement 3, délimité par un fond 30 s'étendant dans un plan d'allure parallèle à l'axe X et deux parois latérales opposées 31, 32. Il est par ailleurs prévu que les moyens d'assemblage du panneau 2 au poteau 1, 10 comportent un profilé 4, conçu apte à s'étendre entre les parois latérales 31, 32, pour fermer le logement 3, présentant une face externe 40 pourvue de moyens de solidarisation du panneau 2, et qui est monté mobile en translation, le long d'un axe Y perpendiculaire à l'axe X, dans le logement 3.According to the invention, the post 1, 10 has at least one housing 3, delimited by a bottom 30 extending in a plane parallel to the X axis and two opposite side walls 31, 32. It is Moreover, the assembly means of the panel 2 to the post 1, 10 comprise a profile 4, designed capable of extending between the side walls 31, 32, to close the housing 3, having an outer face 40 provided with fastening the panel 2, and which is mounted movable in translation, along a Y axis perpendicular to the axis X, in the housing 3.

Dans les variantes de réalisation illustrées, la face externe 40 du profilé 4 présente une rainure longitudinale 41 dans laquelle peut être emboîtée une nervure complémentaire (non illustrée) par exemple d'une traverse 20, 21 du panneau 2. Le profilé 4 peut constituer, selon le cas, un montant d'extrémité du panneau 2, une paroi périphérique du poteau 1, ou les deux à la fois, ce qui permet avantageusement d'alléger la structure de la clôture ainsi formée et d'en améliorer l'aspect esthétique.In the embodiments shown, the outer face 40 of the profile 4 has a longitudinal groove 41 in which can be fitted a complementary rib (not shown) for example a cross member 20, 21 of the panel 2. The profile 4 may constitute, as the case may be, an end upright of the panel 2, a peripheral wall of the column 1, or both at the same time, which advantageously makes it possible to lighten the structure of the fence thus formed and to improve its aesthetic appearance .

Par ailleurs, tel que visible sur les figures 1 à 3 et 5, la face interne 41 du profilé 4 est munie d'une coulisse 5 délimitée par deux flancs longitudinaux en « L » 50, 51, définissant des rebords 52, 53 orientés vers l'intérieur de la coulisse 5. Le fond 30 du logement est quant à lui équipé d'un rail 6, formé par deux ailes longitudinales symétriques 60, 61, présentant chacune un premier tronçon 62 relié au fond 30, un second tronçon 63 dont le bord libre 64 est replié vers l'extérieur du rail 6, ainsi qu'un épaulement 65 formé entre lesdits premier et second tronçons 62, 63 et s'étendant en face du bord libre replié 64.Moreover, as visible on the Figures 1 to 3 and 5 , the inner face 41 of the profile 4 is provided with a slide 5 delimited by two longitudinal "L" flanks 50, 51, defining flanges 52, 53 oriented towards the inside of the slide 5. The bottom 30 of the housing is as for him equipped with a rail 6, formed by two symmetrical longitudinal wings 60, 61, each having a first section 62 connected to the bottom 30, a second section 63 whose free edge 64 is folded towards the outside of the rail 6, and a shoulder 65 formed between said first and second sections 62, 63 and extending opposite the folded free edge 64.

L'assemblage du profilé 4 sur le logement 3 du poteau 1, 10 s'effectue de manière réversible au travers de l'emboîtement élastique de la coulisse 5 et du rail 6, indépendamment de tout outil ou accessoire complémentaire.The assembly of the profile 4 on the housing 3 of the post 1, 10 is reversibly performed through the resilient interlocking of the slide 5 and the rail 6, independently of any tool or complementary accessory.

Par ailleurs, le profilé 4 est mobile en translation le long de l'axe Y, sur une course délimitée par l'épaulement 65 et le bord replié 64 des ailes longitudinales 60, 61 du rail 6. En effet, tel qu'il ressort clairement des figures ci-jointes, une fois que le profilé 4 est emboîté sur le logement 3 (cf. fig. 2, fig. 4, A, fig. 5), les rebords 52, 53 de la coulisse 5 reposent sur le second tronçon 63 des ailes longitudinales 60, 61.Furthermore, the profile 4 is movable in translation along the Y axis, on a race delimited by the shoulder 65 and the folded edge 64 of the longitudinal wings 60, 61 of the rail 6. Indeed, as is clear from the attached figures, once the section 4 is fitted on the housing 3 (cf. Fig. 2 , Fig. 4 , AT, Fig. 5 ), the flanges 52, 53 of the slide 5 rest on the second section 63 of the longitudinal wings 60, 61.

Un déplacement en translation de la coulisse 5 le long de l'axe Y est alors autorisé d'une part en direction du fond 30 du logement 3, jusqu'à atteindre une position d'enfoncement maximal du profilé 4 dans laquelle les rebords 52, 53 sont en butée contre les épaulements 65 du rail 6, et la face externe 40 du profilé 4 s'étend dans un plan parallèle à l'axe X, en retrait vers l'intérieur du logement 3 (cf. fig. 1, fig. 4, B, fig. 5).A displacement in translation of the slide 5 along the Y axis is then allowed on the one hand in the direction of the bottom 30 of the housing 3, until reaching a maximum driving position of the profile 4 in which the flanges 52, 53 are in abutment against the shoulders 65 of the rail 6, and the outer face 40 of the section 4 extends in a plane parallel to the axis X, recessed towards the interior of the housing 3 (cf. Fig. 1 , Fig. 4 , B, Fig. 5 ).

D'autre part, un déplacement de la coulisse 5 vers la direction opposée est également autorisé, jusqu'à une position d'enfoncement minimal du profilé 4 par rapport au logement 3 dans laquelle les rebords 52, 53 sont en butée contre le bord libre replié 64 des ailes longitudinales 60, 61 du rail 6 et la face externe 40 du profilé 4 est située dans le plan passant par les bords libres 33, 34 des parois latérales opposées 31, 32 du logement 3 (cf. fig. 3, fig. 4, C, fig. 5).On the other hand, a movement of the slide 5 in the opposite direction is also allowed, until a minimum depression of the profile 4 relative to the housing 3 in which the flanges 52, 53 abut against the free edge folded 64 longitudinal wings 60, 61 of the rail 6 and the outer face 40 of the section 4 is located in the plane passing through the free edges 33, 34 of the opposite side walls 31, 32 of the housing 3 (cf. Fig. 3 , Fig. 4 , C, Fig. 5 ).

Ainsi, la coulisse 5 et le rail 6 définissent des moyens de liaison par emboîtement élastique du profilé 4 dans le logement 3 qui permettent un déplacement en translation du profilé 4 supportant un panneau 2 dans ledit logement 3, vers le fond 30 ou en sens opposé, lors des phénomènes de dilatation ou de rétractation du panneau 2. Toute éventuelle déformation ou dégradation des éléments de clôture est ainsi prévenue, et ce sans nécessiter une structure complexe ou la mise en oeuvre d'éléments tampons additionnels aptes à absorber les mouvements de matière observés.Thus, the slider 5 and the rail 6 define means for elastically interlocking connection of the profile 4 in the housing 3, which allow the profile 4 supporting a panel 2 to move in translation in said housing 3 towards the bottom 30 or in the opposite direction during any expansion or retraction of the panel 2. Any possible deformation or degradation of the closure elements is thus prevented, and this without requiring a complex structure or the implementation of additional buffer elements capable of absorbing the movements of matter. observed.

Par ailleurs, l'invention a également prévu, selon une caractéristique mise en oeuvre dans la variante de réalisation illustrée aux figures 1 à 4, que le logement 3 est avantageusement intégré au poteau 1 qui est creux et dont il définit le volume interne ou au moins une partie de ce volume. En l'occurrence, dans cette variante, le logement 3 occupe la moitié du volume interne du poteau 1 qui présente une section transversale rectangulaire, et dont l'autre moitié est occupée par un second logement 300. La paroi périphérique du poteau 1 comporte deux parois opposées 7, 8 intégrant les parois latérales 31, 32 du logement 3, une paroi définie par le profilé 4 et une quatrième paroi 9 opposée audit profilé 4. A l'instar du profilé 4, la paroi 9 comporte sur sa face externe une rainure 90 destinée à recevoir une nervure d'un second panneau 2 pouvant être fixé sur le poteau 1 et faisant partie d'un second module selon l'invention. Il convient de noter que les axes des rainures 90, 41 sont situés dans le même plan, de sorte que lorsque deux panneaux 2 sont reliés pour l'un au profilé 4 solidaire du logement 3, et pour l'autre à la paroi 9 du poteau 1, ils sont alignés entre eux et forment donc une cloison plane.Furthermore, the invention also provides, according to a feature implemented in the embodiment variant illustrated in FIGS. Figures 1 to 4 , that the housing 3 is advantageously integrated with the pole 1 which is hollow and which it defines the internal volume or at least a portion of this volume. In this case, in this variant, the housing 3 occupies half of the internal volume of the post 1 which has a rectangular cross section, and the other half is occupied by a second housing 300. The peripheral wall of the post 1 comprises two opposite walls 7, 8 integrating the side walls 31, 32 of the housing 3, a wall defined by the profile 4 and a fourth wall 9 opposite said profile 4. Like the profile 4, the wall 9 has on its outer face a groove 90 for receiving a rib of a second panel 2 can be fixed on the pole 1 and forming part of a second module according to the invention. It should be noted that the axes of the grooves 90, 41 are located in the same plane, so that when two panels 2 are connected for one to the section 4 secured to the housing 3, and for the other to the wall 9 of the post 1, they are aligned with each other and therefore form a flat partition.

Selon une autre caractéristique, mise en oeuvre dans la variante de réalisation illustrée à la figure 4, le module selon l'invention peut comporter un poteau 10, présentant de préférence une section transversale circulaire, et pourvu d'au moins deux logements 3, 301 définissant des montants 100, 101 d'axe X2, X3. Ces montants 100, 101 sont avantageusement reliés à la paroi externe du poteau 10 de manière telle que les plans contenant leurs axes X2, X3 forment entre eux un angle choisi en fonction de la position angulaire relative souhaitée de deux panneaux 2 assemblés au poteau. Une telle structure permet de créer des cloisons dans laquelle deux panneaux consécutifs forment entre un angle, tout en palliant les inconvénients des phénomènes de dilatation/rétractation qu'ils sont susceptibles de subir. Comme dans la variante de réalisation illustrée aux figures 1 à 4, le logement 3, fermé au moyen d'un profilé mobile 4, permet d'absorber les mouvements de dilatation/rétractation d'un premier panneau 2 relié au poteau 10. Le second logement 301 est fermé par une cloison 9 fixe présentant sur sa face externe une rainure 90 pour la fixation d'un second panneau 2 faisant partie du module suivant.According to another characteristic, implemented in the variant embodiment illustrated in FIG. figure 4 , the module according to the invention may comprise a pole 10, preferably having a circular cross section, and provided with at least two housings 3, 301 defining amounts 100, 101 of axis X2, X3. These amounts 100, 101 are advantageously connected to the outer wall of the post 10 in such a way that the planes containing their axes X2, X3 form between them an angle chosen according to the desired relative angular position of two panels 2 assembled to the post. Such a structure makes it possible to create partitions in which two consecutive panels form between an angle, while overcoming the disadvantages of the phenomena of expansion / retraction that they are likely to undergo. As in the embodiment variant illustrated in Figures 1 to 4 , the housing 3, closed by means of a movable section 4, absorbs the expansion / retraction movements of a first panel 2 connected to the pole 10. The second housing 301 is closed by a fixed partition 9 having on its external face a groove 90 for fixing a second panel 2 forming part of the next module.

Il convient également de noter que dans les deux variantes de réalisation illustrées, le poteau 1, 10 comporte encore un cache de finition 11 destiné à être emboîté sur son extrémité supérieure et refermant le/les logements qu'il comporte par le dessus.It should also be noted that in the two illustrated embodiments, the pole 1, 10 further comprises a finishing cover 11 intended to be fitted on its upper end and closing the housing / it comprises from above.

Tel qu'il ressort clairement de ce qui précède, la présente invention permet d'atteindre les objectifs fixés en préambule. Le module selon l'invention permet de pallier les problèmes posés par les phénomènes de dilatation/rétractation auxquels sont successivement soumis les éléments constitutifs de dispositifs de clôture, grâce à la mise en oeuvre de moyens permettant d'absorber les mouvements correspondants des panneaux.As is clear from the foregoing, the present invention achieves the objectives set forth in the preamble. The module according to the invention makes it possible to overcome the problems posed by the expansion / retraction phenomena to which the constituent elements of closure devices are successively subjected, thanks to the implementation of means making it possible to absorb the corresponding movements of the panels.

Par ailleurs, la structure des moyens mis en oeuvre est avantageuse étant donné qu'elle permet d'alléger le dispositif de clôture obtenu, lesdits moyens faisant partie intégrante du poteau ou du panneau et se révélant par conséquent invisibles en fin de pose. Cette dernière est par ailleurs simplifiée, s'effectue sans vis et sans joints et sans nécessiter de la part des poseurs des calculs intempestifs au niveau du chantier, sources d'erreurs potentielles et de pertes de temps considérables. En effet, chaque module est destiné à être préférentiellement préparé en atelier, où le panneau 2 est emboîté sur le profilé mobile 4, lui-même emboîté sur le logement 3. Au niveau du chantier, il suffit par conséquent aux poseurs de relier les différents modules entre eux, par emboîtement du panneau d'un module sur le poteau d'un autre module, la pose ne nécessitant pas de profilés ou d'accessoires additionnels et s'effectuant à l'avancée avec le traçage d'axe en axe de chaque poteau sur la base de mesures indiquées sur un plan. L'installation peut en outre s'effectuer en toutes saisons et toutes températures sans aucun calcul supplémentaire et avec la garantie de positionner convenablement les poteaux et d'éviter tout risque de déformation ultérieure des panneaux.Furthermore, the structure of the means used is advantageous since it allows to lighten the closing device obtained, said means forming an integral part of the post or panel and therefore being invisible at the end of installation. The latter is also simplified, takes place without screws and without joints and without the need of the installers of unwanted calculations at the site, sources of potential errors and considerable time losses. Indeed, each module is intended to be preferentially prepared in the workshop, where the panel 2 is fitted on the movable section 4, itself fitted on the housing 3. At the site, it is therefore sufficient for the installers to connect the different modules between them, by interlocking panel of a module on the post of another module, the installation does not require any additional sections or accessories and is carried out in advance with the drawing of axis in axis of each post on the basis of measurements indicated on a map. The installation can also be carried out in all seasons and all temperatures without any additional calculation and with the guarantee of properly positioning the posts and to avoid any risk of later deformation of the panels.

De plus, le module selon l'invention est conçu apte à permettre la réalisation d'angles entre deux panneaux consécutifs d'une clôture.In addition, the module according to the invention is designed to allow the realization of angles between two consecutive panels of a fence.
