Abstract

A liquid bubble container for mounting on a web of a machined or cast spirit level body is designed for economical non-labour intensive construction of high quality levels by eliminating unnecessary intermediate assembly processes. The lower part of a flat base section (1) is connected to the web (2) and is extended at its ends by two parallel identical arms (8) ending in transverse annular sections. The centres of the transvers annular sections are coaxial and offset w.r.t. the base section. The base section has a hole enabling it to be screwed to the web whilst the annular sections have outward projecting stops resting against the opposite side of the web. The bubble section (10) fits inside the two annular rings (8).

Description

L'invention a pour objet un perfectionnement apporté aux supports pour fioles de niveaux, tels que décrits et revendiques dans la demande de brevet français 79.05430 déposée le 26 février au nom de la demanderesse, et en particulier aux revendications 1 et 4 de ladite demande. The subject of the invention is an improvement to the supports for level vials, as described and claimed in French patent application 79.05430 filed on February 26 in the name of the applicant, and in particular to claims 1 and 4 of said application.

On a revendiqué dans le brevet principal un support pour fiole de niveau destiné à être monté sur l'âme d'un niveau, le support comportant d'une part une embase plane venant s'appliquer contre le corps du niveau et fixée à celui-ci par tout moyen adéquat, par exemple par vissage, et d'autre part deux flasques parallèles comportant des logements et constituant le récepteur de la fiole proprement dit, les deux flasques étant reliés à l'embase, l'ensemble du support étant obtenu par exemple par moulage. On prévoit également que chacun des flasques, ou pé rimêtres, est muni de moyens d'appui venant en butée contre l'âme du corps de niveau, sur l'autre face du corps de niveau que celle contre laquelle vient s'appliquer l'embase. In the main patent, a support for a level vial intended to be mounted on the core of a level has been claimed, the support comprising on the one hand a flat base coming to bear against the body of the level and fixed to it. ci by any suitable means, for example by screwing, and on the other hand two parallel flanges comprising housings and constituting the receiver of the vial itself, the two flanges being connected to the base, the whole of the support being obtained by example by molding. It is also provided that each of the flanges, or perimeters, is provided with support means abutting against the core of the level body, on the other face of the level body than that against which the base.

On positionne ainsi la fiole par une seule opération et avec une solidarisation en un seul point. The vial is thus positioned by a single operation and with a joining at a single point.

Toutefois le corps du support1 généralement en matière synthetique, présente une certaine flexibilité si l'on presse sur la fiole perpendiculairement au plan de l'âme du corps de niveau du côté de l'embase. Bien que ceci ne constitue nas un grand inconvenient au niveau de l'utilisation, il est cependant préférable d'éviter que, dans un instrument de mesure aussi précis, l'élément essentiel puisse être déplacé, ce qui à la longue pourrait éventuellement entrainer un léger dérèglement. However, the body of the support1, generally made of synthetic material, has a certain flexibility if the vial is pressed perpendicularly to the plane of the core of the level body on the side of the base. Although this does not constitute a great drawback in terms of use, it is nevertheless preferable to avoid that, in such a precise measuring instrument, the essential element can be displaced, which in the long run could possibly lead to a slight disturbance.

Le présent Certificat d'addition a pour objet de pallier cet inconvénient en proposant un support pour fiole de niveau selon la revendication 4 du brevet principal, caractérisé en ce que les moyens d'appui sont constitués sur chacun des périmètres par une paire d'ergots se faisant face, dirigés vers l'ex térieur du support par rapport au plan des périmètres et perpen diculairement audit plan. The purpose of this addition certificate is to overcome this drawback by proposing a support for level vial according to claim 4 of the main patent, characterized in that the support means are constituted on each of the perimeters by a pair of lugs facing each other, directed towards the outside of the support with respect to the plane of the perimeters and perpendicular to said plane.

De manière préférentielle les ergots seront venus de moulage avec le support et comporteront des faces planes en vis à vis parallèles au plan de l'embase.  Preferably, the pins will have come from molding with the support and will have planar faces opposite parallel to the plane of the base.

Ainsi le support est positionné sur le corps de niveau et bloqué en trois points
- d'un côté du corps du niveau par un ergot de cha que périmètre
- de l'autre côté du corps de niveau respectivement par l'autre ergot de chaque périmètre et par le moyen de solidarisation de l'embase.Thus the support is positioned on the level body and locked at three points
- on one side of the level body by a lug on each perimeter
- On the other side of the level body respectively by the other lug of each perimeter and by the means for securing the base.

Le support ne dispose plus ainsi d'aucun degré de liberté. The support no longer has any degree of freedom.

On comprendra mieux l'invention à l'aide de la description ci-après d'un mode de réalisation préféré et des dessins annexés dans lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue en élévation de la face externe du support selon l'invention
- la figure 2 est une vue latérale du support selon l'invention
- la figure 3 est une vue en élévation de la face interne du support selon l'invention.The invention will be better understood on the basis of the description below of a preferred embodiment and the appended drawings in which
- Figure 1 is an elevational view of the external face of the support according to the invention
- Figure 2 is a side view of the support according to the invention
- Figure 3 is an elevational view of the internal face of the support according to the invention.

Le support comporte une embase 1 et deux branches ou flasques 8 comportant des périmètres 9. The support comprises a base 1 and two branches or flanges 8 having perimeters 9.

Un ergot 12 est prévu conformément au brevet principal, venu de matière avec le support, sur chacun des périmètres. A lug 12 is provided in accordance with the main patent, integral with the support, on each of the perimeters.

Selon l'invention on prévoit, faisant face à chacun des ergots 12, des ergots 18 disposés perpendiculairement au plan des branches 8, dirigés vers l'extérieur du support. According to the invention there is provided, facing each of the pins 12, pins 18 arranged perpendicular to the plane of the branches 8, directed towards the outside of the support.

Pour des raisons de facilité de fabrication et d'esthétique, les ergots 18 se prolongeront sur toute la longueur du chant des branches 8 et de l'embase 1. For reasons of ease of manufacture and aesthetics, the pins 18 will extend over the entire length of the edge of the branches 8 and of the base 1.

Chaque paire d'ergots 12 et 18, se faisant face par une surface plane'parallèle au plan de l'embase, détermine en fait une rainure de largeur sensiblement supérieure à l'épais- seur du profilé constituant le corps de niveau de manière que le support puisse être disposé sur le corps de niveau comme décrit dans le brevet principal,  Each pair of pins 12 and 18, facing each other by a planar surface parallel to the plane of the base, in fact determines a groove of width substantially greater than the thickness of the profile constituting the level body so that the support can be arranged on the level body as described in the main patent,
