Abstract

The lifting grip is for handling sheet (18) and has parallel jaws. The moving jaw (14) has a wing (13) parallel to the main body (1). In this pivots a cam (10) controlling locking. This includes a lever (7a) fixed to the cam. The lever pivots eccentrically relative to the control cam pivot (14) and is fixed to the end of the lifting chain (15). A pull on the chain closes the moving jaw by cam action, due to the eccentric lever mounting. The closing force is proportional to the lifting force.

Description

Lève-tle à mâchoires parallèles. Lift with parallel jaws.

On connaît des lève tôles comprenant une came de serrage qui est reliée à une chaîne de levage et est montée pivotante de manière excentrée par rapport au corps du lève-tôle. Lorsqu'on exerce une traction sur la chaine, la came pivote sous l'effet du poids du lève-tôle, ce qui assure le serrage dans le corps du lève-tle de la tôle qui est engagée dans ce corps. Sheet lifts are known comprising a clamping cam which is connected to a lifting chain and is pivotally mounted eccentrically relative to the body of the sheet lift. When a traction is exerted on the chain, the cam pivots under the effect of the weight of the sheet lifter, which ensures the tightening in the body of the lifter of the sheet which is engaged in this body.

Les lève-tles de ce genre sont très efficaces puisque l'effort de serrage est proportionnel au poids de la tale. Mais la came détériore cette tle, ce qui est un inconvénient notamment lorsqu'il s'agit d'une tôle en acier inoxydable ou galvanisé ou encore d'une tôle prépeinte. De plus, lorsqu'ils sont utilisés pour lever des tales ayant toutes la même épaisseur, ce qui est fréquent dans certains ateliers, un méplat finit par se former sur la came, à l'endroit du contact; ce méplat est dangereux, car il empêche le pivotement de la came sous l'effet du poids de la tôle. Enfin, le contact de la came avec la tôle se fait suivant une zone très étroite assimilable à une ligne et il peut arriver qu'une tôle fragile soit endommagée par la pression de la came sur la tale.  Lifts of this kind are very effective since the clamping force is proportional to the weight of the tale. However, the cam deteriorates this sheet, which is a drawback in particular when it is a stainless steel or galvanized sheet or even a prepainted sheet. In addition, when they are used to lift tales all having the same thickness, which is frequent in certain workshops, a flat ends up forming on the cam, at the point of contact; this flat is dangerous because it prevents the cam from pivoting under the effect of the weight of the sheet. Finally, the contact of the cam with the sheet is made in a very narrow zone comparable to a line and it can happen that a fragile sheet is damaged by the pressure of the cam on the sheet.

Pour remédier à ces inconvénients, il a été proposé dans le
Certificat d'Utilité 2 133 896 un lève-tle à mâchoires parallèles dans lequel une mâchoire mobile au contact de la came de serrage est solidaire de plaques latérales disposées de part et d'autre de cette came et munies de fentes pour le passage de l'axe de pivotement de ladite came. Mais ce lève-tôle ne permet de manipuler des plaques de différentes épaisseurs qu'en prévoyant un mécanisme compliqué.
To remedy these drawbacks, it has been proposed in the
Certificate of Utility 2 133 896 a lifter with parallel jaws in which a movable jaw in contact with the clamping cam is secured to side plates arranged on either side of this cam and provided with slots for the passage of the pivot axis of said cam. But this sheet lifter only allows handling of plates of different thicknesses by providing a complicated mechanism.

La présente invention a pour objet un lève-tôle à mâchoires parallèles qui présente une grande capacité de prise tout en étant de construction très simple. The present invention relates to a sheet lifter with parallel jaws which has a large gripping capacity while being of very simple construction.

Le lève-tôle selon l'invention est caractérisé en ce que la mâchoire mobile comporte une aile parallèle au corps du lève-tole et dans laquelle est monté pivotant un élément de commande de serrage, et en ce qu'il comprend un levier qui est fixé sur cet élé- ment de commande, lequel levier est monté pivotant par rapport au corps du lève-tôle de manière excentrée par rapport à l'axe de l'élément, et sur lequel est fixée l'extrémité d'une chaîne de levage. The sheet metal lifter according to the invention is characterized in that the movable jaw comprises a wing parallel to the body of the sheet lifter and in which a clamping control element is pivotally mounted, and in that it comprises a lever which is fixed on this control element, which lever is pivotally mounted relative to the body of the sheet lifter eccentrically to the axis of the element, and on which is fixed the end of a lifting chain .

Lorsqu'une tôle est disposée entre la mâchoire mobile et une mâchoire fixe disposée en regard, le poids du Iève-tole et celui de la tôle tendent à faire pivoter le levier. When a sheet is placed between the movable jaw and a fixed jaw arranged opposite, the weight of the sheet lift and that of the sheet tend to pivot the lever.

Celui-ci entraîne l'élément de commande qui, par suite du montage excentré de cet élément, déplace la mâchoire mobile vers la mâchoire fixe en assurant le serrage de la tôle entre ces deux mâchoires. This drives the control element which, as a result of the eccentric mounting of this element, moves the movable jaw towards the fixed jaw while ensuring the clamping of the sheet between these two jaws.

On a décrit ci-après, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation d'un lève-tôle selon l'invention avec référence au dessin annexé dans lequel :
La Figure 1 est une vue en élévation du lève-tle, avec arrachement partiel;
La Figure 2 en est une vue en coupe suivant II-II de la
Figure 1.
An embodiment of a sheet metal lifter according to the invention has been described below, by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawing in which:
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the lifter, with partial cutaway;
Figure 2 is a sectional view along II-II of the
Figure 1.

Tel qu'il est représenté au dessin, le lève-tle selon l'invention comprend un corps 1 formé de deux flasques réunis l'un à l'autre par deux entretoises 2 et 3 ainsi que par deux axes 4 et 5. L'entretoise 3 est disposée le long d'une ouverture 6 prévue dans le corps 1 et constitue la mâchoire de serrage fixe du lèvetôle. As shown in the drawing, the lifter according to the invention comprises a body 1 formed by two flanges joined to one another by two spacers 2 and 3 as well as by two axes 4 and 5. The spacer 3 is arranged along an opening 6 provided in the body 1 and constitutes the fixed clamping jaw of the levetole.

Autour de l'axe 4 sont montés pivotants deux leviers 7a et 7b réunis l'un à l'autre par un plat 8 et un axe 9. Un disque 10, disposé entre les leviers 7a et 7b est fixé à ces leviers par des rivets 11, de manière excentrée par rapport à l'axe 4. Ce disque est lui-même monté pivotant dans une ouverture circulaire 12 ménagée dans une paroi 13 qui est parallèle aux flasques du corps 1 et est solidaire d'une mâchoire de serrage mobile 14. Around the axis 4 are pivotally mounted two levers 7a and 7b joined to each other by a flat 8 and an axis 9. A disc 10, disposed between the levers 7a and 7b is fixed to these levers by rivets 11, eccentrically with respect to the axis 4. This disc is itself pivotally mounted in a circular opening 12 formed in a wall 13 which is parallel to the flanges of the body 1 and is integral with a movable clamping jaw 14 .

Une chaîne à maillons 15 est fixée par une manille 16 à l'axe 9. Cette chaîne passe sur l'entretoise 8 et sur une poulie 17 montée sur l'axe 5. A link chain 15 is fixed by a shackle 16 to the axis 9. This chain passes over the spacer 8 and over a pulley 17 mounted on the axis 5.

Lorsqu'on engage une tle 18 entre les mâchoires 3 et 14 et qu'on soulève le lève-tle, l'effort de levage tend à faire pivoter les leviers 7a et 7b autour de l'axe 4, comme indiqué par la flèche f. Ces leviers entraînent le disque 10; mais, par suite de l'excentricité de l'axe 4 par rapport au centre de ce disque, celui-ci déplace vers la mâchoire 3 la paroi 13 et, par suite, la mâchoire mobile 14 qui en est solidaire. La tole 18 est ainsi serrée entre les mâchoires 3 et 13 avec une force qui est fonction du poids de la tôle. Pendant le mouvement de serrage, la paroi 13 pivote autour du disque 10 de façon que la mâchoire 14 reste constamment parallèle à la tôle. I1 n'y a ainsi aucune détérioration de la tôle 18. When a tle 18 is engaged between the jaws 3 and 14 and the lifter is lifted, the lifting force tends to pivot the levers 7a and 7b around the axis 4, as indicated by the arrow f . These levers drive the disc 10; but, as a result of the eccentricity of the axis 4 with respect to the center of this disc, the latter moves the wall 13 towards the jaw 3 and, consequently, the movable jaw 14 which is integral therewith. The sheet 18 is thus clamped between the jaws 3 and 13 with a force which is a function of the weight of the sheet. During the tightening movement, the wall 13 pivots around the disc 10 so that the jaw 14 remains constantly parallel to the sheet. There is thus no deterioration of the sheet 18.

I1 va de soi que la présente invention ne doit pas être considérée comme limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté, mais en couvre, au contraire, toutes les variantes.  It goes without saying that the present invention should not be considered as limited to the embodiment described and shown, but on the contrary covers all variants thereof.
