Abstract

The modular luggage cases which can be stacked or placed next to one another in vehicles incorporate rapid locking clips which hold them in place during transit. The clips are pref. resilient projections which locate into offset holes provided in the top of other cases or in a false floor which is cut to fit the shape of e.g. the boot floor of the vehicle involved. The false floor allows the luggage to be used to carry fragile articles without modification to the vehicle itself.

Description

La présente invention concerne les éléments de rangement "mo- adulaires adaptés particulièrement aux véhicules automobiles. The present invention relates to modular storage elements which are particularly suitable for motor vehicles.

Un coffre de voiture, en raison de sa forme et de son accessibilité, est souvent mal utilisé faute d'aménagement fonctionnel. A car trunk, because of its shape and accessibility, is often misused due to a lack of functional layout.

les objets qu'on y entasse emplissent généralement le fonds et il est nécessaire de réaliser des "calages" ennuyeux et rarement efficaces pour les empêcher de s'entremêler à chaque virage ou coup de frein un peu vif. D'autre part, le voisinage de certaines catégories d'objets n'est pas particulièrement heureux. L'utilisation rationnelle d'un coffre de voiture est aussi problématique pour transporter un objet isolé que pour occuper réellement son volume disponible.the objects which are piled up there generally fill the bottom and it is necessary to carry out boring "wedges" and seldom effective to prevent them from becoming entangled with each bend or slightly braked brake application. On the other hand, the neighborhood of certain categories of objects is not particularly happy. The rational use of a car trunk is as problematic for transporting an isolated object as for actually occupying its available volume.

Les éléments modulaires selon l'invention permettent d'éviter ces inconven;ients. Ils sont en effet conçus de telle sorte que leur forme et leur stabilité permettent d'une part d'occuper tout ou partie du volume d'un coffre, d'autre part de les solidariser efficacement avec le véhicule. Ainsi, plus besoin de se préoccuper des problèmes de disposition et de fixation des objets transportés. The modular elements according to the invention make it possible to avoid these drawbacks; They are in fact designed so that their shape and their stability allow on the one hand to occupy all or part of the volume of a trunk, on the other hand to effectively join them with the vehicle. Thus, there is no need to worry about the problems of arrangement and fixing of the transported objects.

De plus, ces éléments de rangement peuvent avoir diverses utilisations. L'un d'eux peut contenir les accessoires d'entretien du véhicule, un autre peut être le panier de la ménagère" que l'on utilise du magasin jusqu'a la maison sans qu'il soit nécessaire de manipuler plusieurs fois ses achats pendant leur transport. Chaque élément de rangement peut avoir un usage bien défini et cette indépendance autorise la juxtaposition d'objets ou denrées sans risque de mélanges indésirables. In addition, these storage elements can have various uses. One of them can contain the vehicle maintenance accessories, another can be the basket for the housewife "which is used from the store to the house without the need to manipulate several purchases Each storage element can have a well-defined use and this independence allows the juxtaposition of objects or foodstuffs without risk of undesirable mixtures.

Les éléments de rangement sont de volumes variables, mais ceci, selon une règle, de façon à ce que plusieurs petits éléments occupent par empilage ou juxtaposition, le même volume qu'un élément de taille supérieure. Ainsi, l'utilisateur peut disposer et répartir les éléments de différentes capacités en fonction de ses besoins. Ces éléments ont donc un gabarit défini, mais ils peuvent différer selon l'usage auquel ils sont destinés. Ce peut être un élément fermé, voire étanche ou au contraire, un élément ouvert, utilisable comme panier. The storage elements are of variable volumes, but this, according to a rule, so that several small elements occupy by stacking or juxtaposition, the same volume as an element of larger size. Thus, the user can arrange and distribute the elements of different capacities according to his needs. These elements therefore have a defined template, but they may differ depending on the use for which they are intended. It can be a closed, or even waterproof, element or, on the contrary, an open element, usable as a basket.

La fixation de ces modules se fait par l'intermédiaire d'un double plancher installé au fond du coffre. Ce plancher est luimême composé de plaques assemblées entre elles. Le contour de l'ensemble est variable selon le type de véhicule qu'il équipe.  These modules are fixed by means of a double floor installed at the bottom of the boot. This floor is itself composed of plates assembled together. The outline of the whole is variable depending on the type of vehicle it equips.

La fixation est réalisée soit par boulonnage quand il est possible d'utiliser des perçages ou des profils particuliers de la carrosserie, soit par verins à vis opposés. Ces moyens de fixation permettent d'installer le plancher sans perçage supplémentaire ou opération quelconque sur la carrosserie du véhicule. Les plaques qui constituent le plancher sont pourvues d'orifices destinés à recevoir les systèmes de fixation des éléments modulaires.The fixing is carried out either by bolting when it is possible to use holes or particular profiles of the bodywork, or by cylinders with opposite screws. These fixing means make it possible to install the floor without additional drilling or any operation on the vehicle body. The plates which constitute the floor are provided with orifices intended to receive the systems for fixing the modular elements.

Le dessin annexé 1/3 est en vue Ge profil d'un ensemble plancher et éléments de rangement en place en place dans le coffre d'un véhicule. The attached drawing 1/3 is a Ge profile view of a floor assembly and storage elements in place in place in the boot of a vehicle.

Le dessin annexé 2/3 représente un exemple de composition réalisable avec les éléments modulaires. The attached drawing 2/3 shows an example of composition achievable with the modular elements.

Le dessin annexé 3/3 représente divers moyens de fixation des éléments sur le plancher. The attached drawing 3/3 shows various means of fixing the elements to the floor.

Tel qu'il est représenté sur le dessin 1/3, l'équipement comprend un plancher t1) installé dans le coffre d'un véhicule. As shown in drawing 1/3, the equipment includes a floor t1) installed in the boot of a vehicle.

Les éléments nodulaires (2), (3), (4) sont mis en place et immobilisés sur le plancher ainsi qu'entre eux par un système de fixation (5).The nodular elements (2), (3), (4) are put in place and immobilized on the floor as well as between them by a fixing system (5).

Tel qu'il est représenté sur le dessin 2/3, l'exemple de com- position des déments permet de vPrifier la règle d'équivalence des volumes par association. As shown in drawing 2/3, the example of the dementia composition allows you to check the equivalence rule for volumes by association.

Le dessin 3/3 représente des moyens de fixation des éléments modulaires sur le plancher selon trois variantes. Drawing 3/3 shows means of fixing the modular elements on the floor according to three variants.

Figure 1 : le profil de ce moyen de fixation permet de réalier l'assemblage par coincent, Les pieds pénètrent verti- calznt dans les orifices du plancher , le coincement s'obtient par le serrage de 1 'ensemble après un déplacement horizontal de l'élé1ent. Dans ce cas les lumières constituant les orifices du plancher, sont orientées de telle sorte que le système de serrage soit maintenu et àv3risé n cas de freinage brutal. Figure 1: the profile of this fastening means allows for assembly by wedging, The feet vertically penetrate into the holes in the floor, the wedging is obtained by tightening the assembly after a horizontal displacement of the ele1ent. In this case, the lights constituting the orifices in the floor are oriented so that the clamping system is maintained and stabilized in the event of sudden braking.

Figure 2 : l'assemblage est rivalisé par agrafage. Dans ce cas, la liaison est réalisée par poussée verticale. Des pieds indépendants du système de fixation assurent la protection des agrafes quand les éléments reposent sur un plan non alvéolé. Figure 2: the assembly is riveted by stapling. In this case, the connection is made by vertical push. Feet independent of the fixing system ensure the protection of the staples when the elements rest on a non-alveolar plane.

Figure 3 : L'assemblage est réalisé par une clé dont la rotation assure le verrouillage. Figure 3: The assembly is carried out by a key whose rotation ensures locking.

Les moyens de fixation selon ces trois variantes peuvent etre associés.  The fixing means according to these three variants can be combined.

Les éléments de rangement modulaires selon l'invention peuvent être utilisés dans tous les cas ou le transport 9'objet divers, pour des raisons de fragilité ou de proximité, pose un problème lié à leur déplacement, à leur renversement, ou leur manipulation. The modular storage elements according to the invention can be used in all cases where the transport of various objects, for reasons of fragility or proximity, poses a problem linked to their movement, their overturning, or their manipulation.

C'est le cas de nombreux automobilistes qui utilisent le coffre de leur voiture pour les usages les plus divers, dans le cadre de leur activité professionnelle autant que pour leurs besoins personnels. Cet ensemble de rangement peut aussi équiper des véhicules à usage commercial. Les éléments peuvent être utilisés par des dépanneurs pour aménager leur véhicule et n'emporter lors d'une intervention que le strict nécessaire, sans avoir le souci de "recaler" l'ensemble de leur matériel avant de reprendre la route. Ces éléments de rangement peuvent aussi êtr-.utilisés sur les bateaux ou dans les avions, d'une façon générale dans tous les moyens de transport. This is the case of many motorists who use the trunk of their car for the most diverse uses, within the framework of their professional activity as much as for their personal needs. This storage unit can also be fitted to vehicles for commercial use. The elements can be used by convenience stores to fit out their vehicle and carry during an intervention only the bare essentials, without having to worry about "resetting" all their equipment before resuming the road. These storage elements can also be used on boats or in airplanes, in general in all means of transport.
