- deux montants parallèles réunis par des traverses pour définir un plan de montée ;
- deux jambes d'appui, chacune articulée en partie supérieure de l'un des montants pour occuper une position de rangement contre les montants, ou une position de stabilisation écartée des montants ;
- une plateforme articulée entre les deux montants et les deux jambes d'appui et rabattable entre une position d'utilisation horizontale lorsque les jambes sont en position de stabilisation, et une position rabattue contre le plan de montée lorsque les jambes sont en position de rangement ;
- un garde-corps articulé au sommet du plan de montée et apte à adopter, sous l'action de première et deuxième barres de commande, une position rabattue contre le plan de montée ou une position de sécurité horizontale.
- two parallel uprights joined by cross members to define a climb plane;
- two support legs, each articulated in the upper part of one of the uprights to occupy a storage position against the uprights, or a stabilization position separated from the uprights;

Un tel escabeau est généralement conçu pour effectuer des travaux à des hauteurs comprises entre 2,5 et 4 mètres.Such a stepladder is usually designed to perform work at heights between 2.5 and 4 meters.
Ce type d'escabeau est par exemple décrit dans le brevet français
Grâce à cet agencement, la plateforme est indépendante du garde-corps et est insensible aux efforts reçus par ce dernier et, en particulier, aux efforts exceptionnels consécutifs à un appui excessif de l'utilisateur sur la barre transversale ou sur les portillons associés au garde-corps. De plus, lorsque l'effort est communiqué aux portillons, il se transmet par les barres de commande directement aux montants, donc sans subir un accroissement de sa valeur, comme c'est le cas dans les escabeaux avec portillons articulés sur les bielles d'un parallélogramme par exemple. Il en résulte que les profilés des montants n'ont pas besoin d'être épaissis pour résister à l'effort.Thanks to this arrangement, the platform is independent of the guardrail and is insensitive to the forces received by the latter and, in particular, to the exceptional forces resulting from excessive support by the user on the cross bar or on the gates associated with the guard. -body. In addition, when the force is communicated to the gates, it is transmitted by the control rods directly to the uprights, therefore without undergoing an increase in its value, as is the case with stepladders with hinged gates on the connecting rods. a parallelogram for example. As a result, the profiles of the uprights do not need to be thickened to withstand the force.

Chaque jambe d'appui (9) est articulée au sommet de l'un des montants (6) pour pouvoir occuper une position de rangement rapprochée des montants (6), ou une position de stabilisation écartée desdits montants (6).Each support leg (9) is articulated at the top of one of the uprights (6) in order to be able to occupy a storage position close to the uprights (6), or a stabilization position separated from said uprights (6).
L'escabeau (1) comprend un garde-corps (3) repliable en forme de U, dont les branches latérales sont articulées, de préférence au niveau de leurs extrémités, à des première et deuxième barres de commande (11, 12) permettant de déployer le garde-corps (3) en positon de sécurité et de le rabattre en position de rangement.The stepladder (1) comprises a U-shaped folding handrail (3), the side branches of which are articulated, preferably at their ends, to first and second control bars (11, 12) making it possible to deploy the guardrail (3) in the safety position and to fold it down in the storage position.
Plus précisément, ces première et deuxième barres de commande (11, 12) sont parallèles et sont, en partie supérieure, articulées au garde-corps (3). En partie inférieure, les première et deuxième barres de commande (11, 12) sont montées coulissantes dans deux manchons (13) de guidage montés pivotants par rapport aux montants (6). De cette manière, le coulissement des première et deuxième barres de commande (11, 12) dans les manchons (13) de guidage permet de passer le garde-corps (3) en position rabattue ou en position de sécurité. En position repliée de rangement et en référence à la
En référence à la
Afin d'assurer une sécurité à un utilisateur présent sur la plateforme (2), la première barre de commande (11) reçoit un portillon (4) articulé pour s'ouvrir vers l'intérieur en direction du garde-corps (3). En référence à la
En référence aux
La battue est réalisée de toute manière appropriée, tel que par une pièce rapportée fixée à la deuxième barre de commande (12). De préférence, la deuxième barre de commande (12) est rectiligne et présente, par exemple, une portion intermédiaire incurvée (16) en direction de la première barre de commande (11) pour former la battue en tant que telle.The battue is carried out in any suitable manner, such as by an insert attached to the second control bar (12). Preferably, the second control bar (12) is rectilinear and has, for example, a curved intermediate portion (16) towards the first control bar (11) to form the battue as such.
Ainsi, l'invention fournit un escabeau (1) dont la mise en place du portillon (4) est automatique, et dont la sécurité est optimisée car le portillon (4) s'ouvre de l'intérieur et est maintenu plaqué contre la battue fixe en position fermée.Thus, the invention provides a stepladder (1) whose installation of the gate (4) is automatic, and whose safety is optimized because the gate (4) opens from the inside and is kept pressed against the battue. fixed in closed position.
Ainsi, en cas par exemple de malaise d'un utilisateur présent sur la plateforme (2), sa chute est évitée car l'appui depuis l'intérieur contre le portillon (4) est fermement maintenu par la battue fixe, et ne risque pas de forcer accidentellement l'ouverture du portillon (4) vers l' extérieur.Thus, in the event for example of discomfort of a user present on the platform (2), his fall is avoided because the support from the inside against the gate (4) is firmly maintained by the fixed battue, and does not risk accidentally forcing the gate (4) to open to the outside.

Les parties télescopiques (21) des montants (6) sont reliées entre elles par des traverses secondaires (23) formant des marches. Les parties télescopiques (22) des jambes d'appui (9) sont éventuellement aussi reliées entre elles par des traverses de renfort (10).The telescopic parts (21) of the uprights (6) are interconnected by secondary cross members (23) forming steps. The telescopic parts (22) of the support legs (9) are optionally also connected to each other by reinforcing crossbars (10).
Les extrémités inférieures des parties télescopiques (21, 22) sont inclinées et s'éloignent l'une de l'autre pour améliorer la stabilité de l'escabeau (1).The lower ends of the telescopic parts (21, 22) are inclined and move away from each other to improve the stability of the stepladder (1).
Afin de verrouiller le réglage des parties télescopiques (21, 22) qui coulissent autour et le long des montants (6) et des jambes d'appui (9), lesdites parties télescopiques (21, 22) comprennent des moyens de verrouillage en position.In order to lock the adjustment of the telescopic parts (21, 22) which slide around and along the uprights (6) and the supporting legs (9), said telescopic parts (21, 22) comprise means for locking in position.
Par exemple, et en référence à la
Les extrémités inférieures des parties télescopiques (21) des montants (6), ou éventuellement les extrémités inférieures des montants (6) en l'absence de parties télescopiques, comprennent chacune un pied stabilisateur (26) articulé pour pivoter, par exemple d'environ 180°, autour d'un axe parallèle montants (6), pour passer d'une position déployée en contact avec le sol renforçant la stabilité de l'escabeau (1) à une position repliée contre le plan de montée (5) pour en interdire l'accès.The lower ends of the telescopic parts (21) of the uprights (6), or possibly the lower ends of the uprights (6) in the absence of telescopic parts, each comprise a stabilizing foot (26) articulated to pivot, for example by approximately 180 °, around a parallel axis uprights (6), to go from a deployed position in contact with the ground, reinforcing the stability of the stepladder (1), to a folded position against the climb plane (5) for deny access.
Par exemple, chaque pied stabilisateur (26) est réalisé par une armature tubulaire en forme de C, dont chaque extrémité est reliée à la partie télescopique (21) correspondante. La longueur du pied stabilisateur (26) est telle qu'en position d'utilisation de l'escabeau (1), et en position déployée du pied stabilisateur (26), ce dernier vient en contact avec le sol.For example, each stabilizing foot (26) is produced by a tubular C-shaped frame, each end of which is connected to the corresponding telescopic part (21). The length of the stabilizing foot (26) is such that in the use position of the stepladder (1), and in the deployed position of the stabilizing foot (26), the latter comes into contact with the ground.
En référence aux
En pratique, le déploiement depuis une position repliée de stockage s'effectue intuitivement en effectuant successivement les phases suivantes :
- écartement des jambes d'appui (9) jusqu'à la position de stabilisation, permettant concomitamment le rabattement de la plateforme (2) en position d'utilisation horizontale ;
- si besoin, réglage en hauteur et en horizontalité de la plateforme (2), en coulissant les différentes parties télescopiques (21, 22) ;
- lorsque la plateforme (2) est sensiblement horizontale, déverrouillage des pions escamotables (14) et basculement du garde-corps (3), ce qui entraine le coulissement vers le haut des barres de commande (11, 12) et leur basculement pour s'écarter des montants (6), jusqu'à ce que les barres de commande (11, 12) se verrouillent en position de sécurité avec les pions escamotables (14), correspondant à une position horizontale du garde-corps (3).
- spacing of the supporting legs (9) to the stabilization position, simultaneously allowing the platform (2) to be folded into the horizontal use position;
- if necessary, height and horizontal adjustment of the platform (2), by sliding the various telescopic parts (21, 22);
- when the platform (2) is substantially horizontal, unlocking of the retractable pins (14) and tilting of the guardrail (3), which causes the upward sliding of the control bars (11, 12) and their tilting for s' move away from the uprights (6), until the control bars (11, 12) lock in the safety position with the retractable pins (14), corresponding to a horizontal position of the guardrail (3).
L'utilisateur peut alors venir sur la plateforme (2) en repoussant vers l'avant le portillon (4), qui revient automatiquement en position de fermeture dès que l'utilisateur est complètement installé, notamment en butée contre la deuxième barre de commande (12) faisant office de battue fixe.The user can then come onto the platform (2) by pushing the gate (4) forward, which automatically returns to the closed position as soon as the user is fully seated, in particular in abutment against the second control bar ( 12) acting as a fixed battue.
Bien évidemment, le repliement s'effectue en procédant d'une façon inverse à celle qui vient d'être décrite.Obviously, the folding is carried out by proceeding in a reverse fashion to that which has just been described.
