Description

DISPOSITIF DE TRANSPORT DU TYPE TRéPIED OU ANALOGUE
Le transport des trépieds ou supports analogues est peu commode du fait que les pieds d'un tel support, repliés ou rabattus en vue du transport, tendent a prendre une position écartée si l'on ne les maintient pas réunis a l'aide d'une main, ou s'ils ne sont pas maintenus par un dispositif approprié, dans la position repliée. Ceci s'applique notamment au cas où le trépied ou analogue n'est tenu que par un de ses pieds, pour des raisons de commodité.Pour cette raison, on a déjà propose des récipients ou etuis séparés en forme de carquois qui permettent un transport aisé des supports intéressés. Toutefois, les reci- pients de ce genre exigent un investissement important et leur prix est, par conséquent, élevé.TRIPOD OR THE LIKE TRANSPORT DEVICE
The transport of tripods or similar supports is inconvenient because the feet of such a support, folded or folded for transport, tend to take a position apart if they are not held together using one hand, or if not held by a suitable device, in the folded position. This applies in particular to the case where the tripod or the like is held only by one of its feet, for reasons of convenience. For this reason, we have already proposed separate containers or cases in the form of quivers which allow transport easy interested media. However, containers of this kind require a large investment and their price is therefore high.

L'invention a pour but de créer un dispositif simple, commode et peu onéreux pour le transport d'un support du type trépied ou analogues. The object of the invention is to create a simple, convenient and inexpensive device for transporting a support of the tripod type or the like.

Selon l'invention, ce but est atteint en ce que ledit dispositif est constitué par une courroie porteuse pourvue à l'une de ses extrémités d'un évidement pour le passage de la colonne centrale du support et formant, a l'autre extrémité, une dragonne appelée à être fixée sur les pieds dudit support.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that said device consists of a carrying belt provided at one of its ends with a recess for the passage of the central column of the support and forming, at the other end, a strap called to be fixed on the feet of said support.

Ce dispositif de transport peut être fixé d'une manière particulibrement simple sur tout support du type trépied ou analogue, et on peut l'y laisser en place, a demeure. Sa fabrication est peu onéreuse. This transport device can be fixed in a particularly simple manner on any support of the tripod type or the like, and can be left there in place, permanently. Its manufacture is inexpensive.

Le dispositif de transport selon l'invention présente l'avantage particulier de ne pas nécessiter de points de fixation spéciaux pour l'assujettissement de courroies, de tels points entraînant des frais de fabrication supplémentaires et risquant de perturber le fonctionnement du support pendant l'utilisation de celui-ci.The transport device according to the invention has the particular advantage of not requiring special fixing points for securing belts, such points causing additional manufacturing costs and risking disturbing the operation of the support during use. of it.

Dans un mode de réalisation du dispositif selon l'invention, ledit évidement est menage dans une patte fixee a l'extrémité intéressée de la courroie porteuse. Cette patte peut être formée d'un matériau autre que celui de ladite courroie et être fixée sur celle-ci par couture, collage ou tout autre moyen convenable. La dragonne disposée a l'autre extrémité de la courroie porteuse peut présenter un diamètre invariable. Toutefois, le diamètre de cette dragonne peut aussi, avantageusement, être variable ou ajustable. On peut obtenir ce résultat en dotant la dragonne d'une boucle du type boucle a ceinture, connue en soi. Afin de réaliser une dragonne a diamètre variable, on peut également la fabriquer en matériau élastique.On obtient ainsi une adaptation automatique du diamètre de la dragonne au diamètre des pieds du support a transporter. In one embodiment of the device according to the invention, said recess is formed in a lug fixed to the interested end of the carrying belt. This tab may be formed of a material other than that of said belt and be fixed thereto by sewing, gluing or any other suitable means. The strap arranged at the other end of the carrying belt may have an invariable diameter. However, the diameter of this strap can also, advantageously, be variable or adjustable. This can be achieved by providing the strap with a buckle of the belt buckle type, known per se. In order to make a wrist strap with variable diameter, it can also be made of elastic material. This gives an automatic adaptation of the diameter of the wrist strap to the diameter of the feet of the support to be transported.

Dans un autre mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, la longueur de la courroie porteuse est réglable. Ce résultat peut être obtenu, tout comme dans le cas de la dragonne, par l'utilisation de moyens connus, tels qu'une boucle pourvue ou non d'une broche. Grâce a cet agencement, le dispositif peut être ajusté en vue d'une manipulation commode adaptée a chaque cas particulier et individuel. In another advantageous embodiment of the invention, the length of the carrying belt is adjustable. This result can be obtained, as in the case of the wrist strap, by the use of known means, such as a loop provided or not with a pin. Thanks to this arrangement, the device can be adjusted for convenient handling adapted to each particular and individual case.

L'invention sera décrite de manière plus détaillée c7-dessous, notamment en référence aux figures annexées qui représentent, a titre d'illustration9 mais non de limitation, un mode de réalisation du dispositif selon l'invention. The invention will be described in more detail c7 below, in particular with reference to the appended figures which represent, by way of illustration9 but not limitation, an embodiment of the device according to the invention.

- la figure 1 montre un support du type trépied en position écar
tée, équipé d'un dispositif de transport selon
l'invention;
- la figure 2 montre le support de la figure 1, en position repliée
et prêt a être transporte;
- la figure 3 représente le dispositif de transport selon l'inven
tion non monté sur un support.- Figure 1 shows a tripod type support in the standby position
tee, equipped with a transport device according to
the invention;
- Figure 2 shows the support of Figure 1, in the folded position
and ready to be transported;
- Figure 3 shows the transport device according to the invention
tion not mounted on a support.

Le support ou trépied représenté sur les figures 1 et 2 comporte, d'une manière connue en soi, des pieds de support 1 articulés sur une tête de support 2 et réglables en longueur A l'aide de mécanismes de serrage 3. Une colonne centrale 4 est montée a coulissement dans la tete de support 2 et immobilisable a l'aide d'une vis de serrage 5. Une tête inclinable 6 a caméra sur laquelle une caméra est susceptible d'être fixée, est montée sur la colonne 4 du support. The support or tripod shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises, in a manner known per se, support legs 1 articulated on a support head 2 and adjustable in length using clamping mechanisms 3. A central column 4 is slidably mounted in the support head 2 and immobilizable using a clamping screw 5. A tilting head 6 with a camera on which a camera is capable of being fixed, is mounted on the column 4 of the support .

Le dispositif selon l'invention est constitué essentiellement par une courroie porteuse 10 dont l'extrémité supérieure est solidaire d'une patte 11 pourvue d'un évidement circulaire 12 dont le diametre correspond a celui de la colonne centrale 4. Une dragonne 13 susceptible d'être enfilée sur les extrémités 1A des pieds 1 du support est fixée a l'autre extrémité de la courroie porteuse 10. Cette dragonne 13 peut être formée d'un matériau elastique. Son diamètre peut egalement être ajustable, d'une manière connue en soi, à l'aide d'une boucle. The device according to the invention consists essentially of a carrying belt 10, the upper end of which is secured to a lug 11 provided with a circular recess 12, the diameter of which corresponds to that of the central column 4. A wrist strap 13 capable of 'to be threaded on the ends 1A of the feet 1 of the support is fixed to the other end of the carrying belt 10. This strap 13 can be formed of an elastic material. Its diameter can also be adjustable, in a manner known per se, using a loop.

Lors du montage du dispositif de transport, on retire la colonne centrale 4 du support, après avoir desserré la vis de serrage 5. On enfile ensuite la colonne centrale 4 dans l'évidement 12 du dispositif de transport, puis l'on met à nouveau ladite colonne en place dans le support. When mounting the transport device, remove the central column 4 from the support, after loosening the clamping screw 5. Then thread the central column 4 into the recess 12 of the transport device, then put it again said column in place in the support.

En vue du transport, on replie les pieds 1 du support comme indiqué sur la figure 2, et l'on enfile la dragonne 13 sur les extrémités 1A desdits pieds 1. La boucle ainsi formée permet un transport aisé du support, soit qu'on le porte à la main, soit qu'on glisse la courroie porteuse sur une épaule pour y suspendre le support. Les bouts 9 saillants des extrémités 1A des pieds 1 du support empêchent, de plus, le dispositif de transport de se détacher en glissant le long du support lorsqu'on pose celuitci et qu'aucune force de traction n'agit plus sur la courroie porteuse 10. For transport, the feet 1 of the support are folded up as shown in FIG. 2, and the strap 13 is threaded onto the ends 1A of said feet 1. The loop thus formed allows easy transport of the support, either carry it by hand, or slide the carrier strap over one shoulder to suspend the support. The protruding ends 9 of the ends 1A of the feet 1 of the support also prevent the transport device from coming off by sliding along the support when this is placed and that no tensile force no longer acts on the carrying belt. 10.

Les différentes parties du dispositif de transport peuvent être formées de ruban en matière synthétique, de materiau tissé pour ceintures, courroies et analogues, ou encore de cuir. The various parts of the transport device can be formed from a ribbon of synthetic material, from woven material for belts, belts and the like, or from leather.

L'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté, mais elle est susceptible de nombreuses variantes accessibles à l'homme de l'art sans que l'on ne s'écarte de l'esprit de l'invention.  The invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown, but it is capable of numerous variants accessible to those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the invention.
