Abstract

The invention relates to a quadricycle provided with an articulation and a stabiliser which can serve to transport heavy loads over relatively long distances. It comprises a cycle 1 made from a rectangular and square tube, and a trailer 2 with a platform, equipped with a drawbar with a trailer attachment for fixing it to the cycle. The latter has a stabiliser 3 which thus makes it possible to hold and balance the assembly when stationary. Amongst the most beneficial applications of the invention, mention may be made of its use in transporting loads which may be as heavy as 30 kilos maximum.

Description

La présente invention concerne un quadricycle articulé avec stabilisateur permettant le transport de pièces de charge utile jusqu'à 30 kilos maximum. The present invention relates to an articulated quadricycle with stabilizer allowing the transport of payload parts up to 30 kilos maximum.

Dans les dispositifs connus de ce genre, il existe le tricycle rigide qui présente une fragilité au niveau du cadre du fait de sa rigidité. Fréquemment,il se produit une rupture du cadre consécutive aux contraintes qui lui sont imposées dans les virages. D'autre part,un cycle équipé d'une remorque ne garde pas son équilibre lorsqu'il est en stationnement,et il lui faut une béquille pour qu'il reste droit. In known devices of this kind, there is the rigid tricycle which has a brittleness in the frame due to its rigidity. Frequently, the frame breaks due to the constraints imposed on it when cornering. On the other hand, a cycle equipped with a trailer does not keep its balance when it is parked, and it needs a stand so that it remains upright.

Le quadricycle selon l'invention permet d'éviter ces inconvénients. The quadricycle according to the invention makes it possible to avoid these drawbacks.

En effet,l'articulation a pour avantage d'éliminer la rigidité de l'en- semble; ainsi , les efforts exercés sur le cadre dans les virages sont supprimés. eci facilite la conduite du cuadricycle pour l'utilisateur.Indeed, the articulation has the advantage of eliminating the rigidity of the assembly; thus, the forces exerted on the frame when cornering are eliminated. eci makes the cuadricycle easier for the user.

L'articulation supprime les contraintes de la charge sur le cycle. Le stabilisateurpermet le maintien et l'équilibre de l'ensemble en station nement. De faible encombrement, le quadricycle a pour avantage e stationner et de se maintenir en équilibre sans béquille.The articulation removes the constraints of the load on the cycle. The stabilizer allows the maintenance and balance of the whole stationary. Small footprint, the quadricycle has the advantage of parking and maintaining balance without a stand.

Vu la composition du cycle en deux parties, après décrochement de la remorque, le cycle peut être utilisé en solo et rend les mêmes services qu'unie bicyclette. Given the composition of the cycle in two parts, after unhooking the trailer, the cycle can be used solo and provides the same services as a bicycle.

Le dispositif comprend un cycle 1 qui est composé d'un carre renforcé,realisé en tube rectangulaire de 50mm/30mm et en tube carré de 30/30mm. Le cadre 4 est équipé d'une roue arrière 5 type cyclo 2/16 renforcée avec moyeu Torpédo 6 et d'une roue avant 7 renforcée 2/I6 avec réflecteur et protégée par un garde-boue 8 . Le pédalier 9 est semimonobloc à emmanchement carré avec protège chaine 10 , et il possède deux pédales II monobloc. La chaine 12 est de type normal; Elle est réglée par deux tendeurs de chaine qui servent à aligner la roue arrière en mêmê temps. La selle 13 est renforcée et fixée à un tube 14 profilé de 25mm/25mm; le guidon 15 renforcé est équipé de deux leviers de frein 16 et d'une sonnette 17.Le frein avant et le frein arrière sont de type
CLB alu. Le cycle peut être équipé d'un projecteur avant et d'un feu arrière alimentés par une dynamo fixée sur une des roues. Une attache remorque 18 est soudée au cadre.The device comprises a cycle 1 which is composed of a reinforced square, produced in rectangular tube of 50mm / 30mm and in square tube of 30 / 30mm. The frame 4 is equipped with a rear wheel 5 type cyclo 2/16 reinforced with Torpédo hub 6 and a front wheel 7 reinforced 2 / I6 with reflector and protected by a mudguard 8. The crankset 9 is semi-monobloc with square fitting with chain protector 10, and it has two monobloc pedals II. The chain 12 is of the normal type; It is regulated by two chain tensioners which are used to align the rear wheel at the same time. The saddle 13 is reinforced and fixed to a tube 14 profiled of 25mm / 25mm; the reinforced handlebar 15 is equipped with two brake levers 16 and a bell 17. The front brake and the rear brake are of the
CLB alu. The cycle can be equipped with a front headlight and a rear light powered by a dynamo fixed on one of the wheels. A trailer hitch 18 is welded to the frame.

La remorque/est composée d'un plateau 19 formant chassis de s5mnl/ 6Romm ,d'une hauteur de 50mm et épais de 3mm, de deux étri2ss 20 en tole de 5mm qui servent de support aux roues, et d'un timon/avec attache remorquepour l'accrocher au cycle. Les roues sont renforcées 22 ,de type cyclo de dimendion 2/16 et équipées de réflecteurs. Elles sont désaxées par rapport à la roue arrière du cycle,d'où une souplesse plus grange de l'ensemble dans les virages. Deux réflecteur sont installés à l'avant de la remorque ainsi qu' l'arriere.  The trailer / is composed of a plate 19 forming a chassis of s5mnl / 6Romm, with a height of 50mm and thickness of 3mm, two brackets 20 in sheet metal of 5mm which serve as support for the wheels, and a drawbar / with trailer hitch to hook it to the cycle. The wheels are reinforced 22, of the 2/16 size cyclo type and fitted with reflectors. They are off-center with respect to the rear wheel of the cycle, resulting in a more barn-like flexibility of the assembly when cornering. Two reflectors are installed at the front of the trailer as well as the rear.

Le stabilisateur/est composé d'un tube de 30mm 23 , r:e deux fer-plats de 20/5mm 24 ,et d'un étrier 25 de maintien de la stabilité? Le stabilisateur est fixé au cadre du cycle et au timon de la remorque par deux boulons, ce qui permet à la remorque de garder son équilibre dans les virages. The stabilizer / is composed of a 30mm tube 23, r: e two flat bars of 20 / 5mm 24, and a stirrup 25 to maintain stability? The stabilizer is attached to the cycle frame and the drawbar of the trailer by two bolts, which allows the trailer to keep its balance when cornering.

Le quadricycle peut être utilisé dans les ateliers, les magasins de grandes surfaces, ou encore dans les usines. Il est conçu pour transporter différents objets et pièces de toutes sortes,de volume différent et d'un poids de 30 kilos maximum.  The quadricycle can be used in workshops, department stores, or in factories. It is designed to transport different objects and pieces of all kinds, of different volume and weighing 30 kilos maximum.
