Description

La présente invention a pour objet un meuble pliant et démontable pouvant servir de podium, de tabouret ou similaire. The present invention relates to a folding and dismountable piece of furniture which can serve as a podium, a stool or the like.

Ce meuble est destiné à remplacer les meubles de ce genre qui habituellement ne sont pas démontables. Ce meuble pliant est destiné à être utilisé notamment dans le cas de certaines applications pour lesquelles il est avantageux de pouvoir stocker ou transporter de tels meubles sous un volume d'encombrement aussi faible que possible. Ceci est par exemple le cas pour les meubles destinés à être utilisés périodiquement à l'occasion de certaines expositions temporaires. This piece of furniture is intended to replace furniture of this kind which usually is not removable. This folding piece of furniture is intended to be used in particular in the case of certain applications for which it is advantageous to be able to store or transport such furniture in as small a volume as possible. This is for example the case for furniture intended to be used periodically on the occasion of certain temporary exhibitions.

Le meuble selon l'invention est constitué par la combinaison de deux éléments distincts, à savoir
- un ensemble pliant susceptible d'être déployé sous forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle et qui est formé par quatre plaques en matériau rigide articulées les unes à la suite des autres par l'intermédiaire de charnières de liaison
- et un plateau amovible destiné à être disposé horizontalement au dessus de cet ensemble après que celuici ait été déployé et que ses parois aient été disposées verticalement sur le sol ou autre support de cet ensemble.The furniture according to the invention consists of the combination of two distinct elements, namely
- A folding assembly capable of being deployed in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped and which is formed by four plates of rigid material articulated one after the other by means of connecting hinges
- And a removable tray intended to be arranged horizontally above this assembly after it has been deployed and its walls have been arranged vertically on the ground or other support of this assembly.

Ainsi ce meuble peut être démonté et plié sous un très faible volume d'encombrement. De plus, il présente l'avantage de pouvoir être ensuite mis à nouveau très rapidement sous sa forme normale d'utilisation. Thus this piece of furniture can be dismantled and folded under a very small overall volume. In addition, it has the advantage of being able to be put back very quickly in its normal form of use.

Cependant d'autres particularités et avantages du meuble selon l'invention apparaitront au cours de la description suivante. Celle-ci est donnée en référence au dessin annexé à simple titre indicatif, et sur lequel
La figure l est une vue en perspective des deux éléments constitutifs du présent meuble, ceux-ci étant représentés avant assemblage.However, other features and advantages of the furniture according to the invention will appear during the following description. This is given with reference to the attached drawing for information only, and on which
Figure l is a perspective view of the two components of this furniture, these being shown before assembly.

La figure 2 est une vue similaire représentant ce meuble sous sa forme d'utilisation.  Figure 2 is a similar view showing this piece of furniture in its form of use.

La figure 3 est une vue en plan de dessus représentant l'ensemble pliant faisant partie de ce meuble et ce, après pliage de celui-ci. Figure 3 is a top plan view showing the folding assembly forming part of this furniture and this, after folding thereof.

La figure 4 est une vue en perspective de la face inférieure du plateau amovible. Figure 4 is a perspective view of the underside of the removable tray.

La figure 5 est une vue partielle en coupe verticale selon la ligne V-V de la figure 2. FIG. 5 is a partial view in vertical section along the line V-V in FIG. 2.

La figure 6 est une vue partielle en coupe des deux parois accolées de deux meubles identiques assemblés l'un avec l'autre. Figure 6 is a partial sectional view of the two adjoining walls of two identical pieces of furniture assembled with one another.

Le meuble représenté est destiné à pouvoir servir de podium, par exemple pour la présentation d'objets dans des expositions ou pour toute autre application similaire. The furniture shown is intended to be able to serve as a podium, for example for the presentation of objects in exhibitions or for any other similar application.

Ce meuble comprend deux parties distinctes, à savoir un ensemble inférieur pliant désigné par la référence générale 1, et un plateau amovible 2. L'ensemble pliant l est constitue par quatre plaques rectangulaires 3 en matériau rigide, par exemple en bois, qui présentent les mêmes dimensions. Ces plaques sont assemblées les unes à la suite des autres par l'intermédiaire de quatre systèmes de charnière désignés par la référence générale 4. This piece of furniture comprises two separate parts, namely a lower folding assembly designated by the general reference 1, and a removable tray 2. The folding assembly l is constituted by four rectangular plates 3 made of rigid material, for example wood, which have the same dimensions. These plates are assembled one after the other by means of four hinge systems designated by the general reference 4.

Chacun de ces systèmes de charnière est constitué par deux barreaux métalliques 5 reliés par au moins deux charnières 6. Les barreaux ainsi prévus sont destinés à constituer les cotés latéraux correspondants des plaques 3 respectives. Ces barreaux peuvent être constitués par des tronçons de tubes métalliques de section carrés ou rectangulaires. Each of these hinge systems is constituted by two metal bars 5 connected by at least two hinges 6. The bars thus provided are intended to constitute the corresponding lateral sides of the respective plates 3. These bars can be formed by sections of metal tubes of square or rectangular section.

Il convient de noter que les charnières 6 sont disposées du coté interne et que leur agencement permet de replier les quatre plaques 3 les unes contre les autres comme représenté sur la figure 3. Ainsi l'ensemble se présente sous une forme à peu près plate. It should be noted that the hinges 6 are arranged on the internal side and that their arrangement makes it possible to fold the four plates 3 against each other as shown in FIG. 3. Thus the assembly is in an almost flat form.

Cependant, du fait même de sa structure, ce même ensemble peut être déployé sous forme d'un parallélépipède rectangle comme représenté sur la figure 1 pour constituer en quelque sorte le corps ou soubassement du podium correspondant. Cet ensemble est alors pr8t à recevoir le plateau amovi- ble 3 dont la surface est au moins égale à celle de la face supérieure du parallélépipède correspondant. However, by the very fact of its structure, this same assembly can be deployed in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped as shown in Figure 1 to somehow constitute the body or base of the corresponding podium. This assembly is then ready to receive the removable plate 3 whose surface is at least equal to that of the upper face of the corresponding parallelepiped.

Comme illustré sur les figures 4 et 5, la face inférieure 7 du plateau 2 porte un certain nombre deprotubé- rances pouvant consister en de petites plaquettes 8 disposées dans chacun des angles. Chacune de ces plaques affecte la forme d'un triangle dont le sommet est tronqué et dont les côtés sont disposés en retrait par rapport aw côtéscorres- pondantsdu plateau 2. As illustrated in FIGS. 4 and 5, the lower face 7 of the plate 2 carries a certain number of protuberances which may consist of small plates 8 arranged in each of the corners. Each of these plates has the shape of a triangle, the top of which is truncated and the sides of which are set back with respect to the corresponding sides of the plate 2.

Ainsi lors de la mise en place de celui-ci sur l'ensemble inférieur 1, les quatre plaques 8 viennent s'emboiter à l'intérieur du parallélépipède formé par cet ensemble. Les côtés de ces plaquettes se trouvent alors en appui contre la face interne des parois 3 de l'ensemble 1. Thus during the establishment of the latter on the lower assembly 1, the four plates 8 come to fit inside the parallelepiped formed by this assembly. The sides of these plates are then in abutment against the internal face of the walls 3 of the assembly 1.

Ceci assure donc l'immobilisation du plateau 2 qui ne risque pas de se déplacer par glissement. Cependant ceci assure également le maintien de l'ensemble inférieur 1 dans sa position de déploiement, c'est-à-dire dans sa position d'utilisation. I1 existe donc un blocage mutuel des deux éléments l et 2 l'un par l'autre. This therefore ensures the immobilization of the plate 2 which is not likely to move by sliding. However, this also ensures that the lower assembly 1 is kept in its deployed position, that is to say in its position of use. I1 therefore exists a mutual blocking of the two elements l and 2 one by the other.

Cependant ce meuble peut etre range et transporté sous un volume d'encombrement extrêmement faible par démontage du plateau amovible 2 et pliage de l'ensemble inferieur 1 sous la forme représentée à la figure 3. Ceci est un avantage important, notamment si ce meuble est utilisé pour l'qui pement de stands d'expositions temporaires ou bien encore pour l'ameublement de salles destinées à être utilisées pour des usages divers. However, this piece of furniture can be stored and transported in an extremely small overall volume by dismantling the removable tray 2 and folding the lower assembly 1 in the form shown in FIG. 3. This is an important advantage, especially if this piece of furniture is used for the equipping of temporary exhibition stands or even for furnishing rooms intended to be used for various uses.

Ainsi qu'il a déjà été indiqué, le meuble selon l'invention peut servir de podium, ou encore de tabouret, ou bien éventuellement d'élément de gradin pour l'équipement d'une salle d'expositions ou de spectacles.  As already indicated, the furniture according to the invention can be used as a podium, or even a stool, or possibly as a bleacher element for equipping an exhibition or show room.

Il convient de noter que des systemes identiques de charnière 4 peuvent être utilisés pour assembler des plaques 3 de même hauteur mais de largeur différente. Bien entendu la hauteur des systèmes de charnière peut varier suivant les cas et applications. It should be noted that identical hinge systems 4 can be used to assemble plates 3 of the same height but of different width. Of course the height of the hinge systems can vary depending on the case and application.

Pour permettre l'assemblage côte à côte de plusieurs meubles identiques selon l'invention, les plaques 3 de l'ensemble inférieur pliant 1 présentent une encoche 9 sur leur bord supérieur . Ces encoches sont destinés à recevoir un organe de jonction 10 en forme de cavalier placé å cheval sur le dessus des deux parois accolées 3a et 3b de deux ensembles pliants la et lb placés côte àcôte (voir figure 6). To allow the assembly side by side of several identical pieces of furniture according to the invention, the plates 3 of the lower folding assembly 1 have a notch 9 on their upper edge. These notches are intended to receive a junction member 10 in the form of a jumper placed astride the top of the two adjoining walls 3a and 3b of two folding assemblies 1a and 1b placed side by side (see FIG. 6).

Il est ainsi possible de réunir côte à côte un nombre quelconque de meubles selon 11 invention, par exemple pour constituer un podium ou une estrade de grande surface, ou bien encore pour former une rangée de gradinsoude sièges dans une salle de spectacles.  It is thus possible to assemble any number of pieces of furniture according to the invention side by side, for example to constitute a podium or a large platform, or even to form a row of bleachers or seats in an auditorium.
