Description

Cabine téléphonique à fermeture automatique. Telephone box with automatic closing.

La présente invention concerne une cabine téléphonique qui est constituée d'une cellule fermée par une porte et comporte un dispositif de rappel de cette porte en position de fermeture. The present invention relates to a telephone box which consists of a cell closed by a door and includes a device for recalling this door in the closed position.

L'usage de la cabine téléphonique fermée permet de l'utiliser dans un environnement bruyant tel que sur le trottoir d'une voie à circulation intense. La fermeture automatique de la porte facilite l'usage de cette cabine en évitant à l'usager d'avoir à tourner sur lui-même pour fermer la porte. The use of the closed telephone box allows it to be used in a noisy environment such as on the sidewalk of a busy road. The automatic closing of the door facilitates the use of this cabin by avoiding the user having to turn on himself to close the door.

On peut prévoir des cabines de forme rectangulaire dont l'une des parois est constituée par une porte qui s'ouvre vers l'extérieur, ces cabines présentent l'inconvénient d'augmenter la prise au sol de la cabine; par ailleurs, lors de l'ouverture de la porte par une personne se trouvant dans la cabine1 il existé le risque de blesser un passant ou une personne qui attend pour utiliser la cabine. Cabins of rectangular shape can be provided, one of the walls of which is constituted by a door which opens towards the outside, these cabins have the drawback of increasing the grip on the ground of the cabin; moreover, when the door is opened by a person in the cabin1 there is the risk of injuring a passerby or a person waiting to use the cabin.

On connait des cabines dont la porte est constituée de deux panneaux articulés l'un sur l'autre; cette porte se replie à l'intérieur de la cabine lors de l'ouverture. Ces cabines présentent l'inconvénient, d'une part, que l'épaisseur de la porte en position repliée limite la largeur d'accès a la cabine; d'autre part, l'espace utilisé par la porte en position repliée réduit d'autant la surface utile de la cabine et il est difficile de pénétrer dans une telle cabine à plus d'une personne. Cabins are known, the door of which consists of two panels hinged one on the other; this door folds inside the cabin during opening. These cabins have the drawback, on the one hand, that the thickness of the door in the folded position limits the width of access to the cabin; on the other hand, the space used by the door in the folded position reduces the useful area of the cabin all the more and it is difficult to enter such a cabin for more than one person.

La présente invention a pour objet une cabine téléphonique du type précité dans laquelle l'ouverture de la porte n'augmente pas lremprise au sol de la cabine et ne réduit pas la surface utile de la cabine.  The present invention relates to a telephone booth of the aforementioned type in which the opening of the door does not increase the footprint of the booth and does not reduce the useful area of the booth.

La cabine téléphonique selon l'invention est notamment remarquable en ce qu'elle comporte une paroi latérale en arc de cercle comportant une porte également en arc de cercle et coulissant sur la dite paroi. De cette manière, la porte en position ouverte n'augmente pratiquement pas la prise au sol de la cabine et ne réduit pas la surface intérieure de cette dernière; par ailleurs, sur une surface courbe, on peut réaliser une porte de dimension suffisante pour permettre à plusieurs personnes de pénétrer aisément dans la cabine. The telephone booth according to the invention is notably remarkable in that it comprises a side wall in an arc of a circle comprising a door also in an arc of a circle and sliding on said wall. In this way, the door in the open position practically does not increase the grip on the floor of the cabin and does not reduce the interior surface of the latter; moreover, on a curved surface, a door of sufficient size can be made to allow several people to easily enter the cabin.

En outre, le fait de réaliser des parois courbes supprime les coins et facilite donc le nettoyage de la cabine. In addition, the fact of making curved walls removes the corners and therefore facilitates the cleaning of the cabin.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la partie supérieure de la porte précitée est fixée sur un support se déplaçant selon un arc de cercle avantageusement, ce support est constitué par un chariot circulant sur un rail disposé sur le toit de la cabine. According to another characteristic of the invention, the upper part of the aforementioned door is fixed on a support moving advantageously in an arc, this support consists of a carriage traveling on a rail arranged on the roof of the cabin.

Avantageusement, la porte est guidée à sa partie inférieure ; de cette manière, on évite que la porte s'écarte de la cabine lorsque l'on s'appuie sur elle ; par ailleurs, cette disposition permet d'éviter certains actes de vandalisme. Advantageously, the door is guided at its lower part; in this way, it is avoided that the door deviates from the cabin when one leans on it; moreover, this provision makes it possible to avoid certain acts of vandalism.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif de rappel est constitué par un ressort pneumatique rotatif; avantageusement, le chariot comporte un bras monté à rotation autour d'un axe vertical passant par le centre de l'arc de cercle de la paroi et le bras du ressort pneumatique rotatif est relié par une biellette au dit bras du chariot
D'autres caractéristiques avantageuses de l'invention ressortiront de la description qui suit. Un exemple de réalisation, est donné à titre illustratif, ainsi que des dessins ci-annexés sur lesquels
la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une cabine selon l'invention avec sa porte ouvert,
la figure 2 est une vue de dessus de la cabine et
la figure 3 est une vue de détail du toit de la cabine.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the return device consists of a rotary pneumatic spring; advantageously, the carriage comprises an arm mounted for rotation about a vertical axis passing through the center of the arc of a circle of the wall and the arm of the rotary air spring is connected by a link to said arm of the carriage
Other advantageous features of the invention will emerge from the description which follows. An exemplary embodiment is given by way of illustration, as well as the attached drawings in which
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a cabin according to the invention with its door open,
FIG. 2 is a top view of the cabin and
Figure 3 is a detail view of the roof of the cabin.

La cabine téléphonique qui ést représentée sur les figures 1 à 3 comporte au moins une paroi 1 de forme circulaire, c'est à dire qu'elle s'étend selon un arc de cercle ; cette paroi comporte une ouverture 2 qui est fermée par une porte 3 qui coulisse le long de la paroi 1 et qui présente également une forme en arc de cercle. The telephone booth which is shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 comprises at least one wall 1 of circular shape, that is to say that it extends in an arc of a circle; this wall has an opening 2 which is closed by a door 3 which slides along the wall 1 and which also has an arcuate shape.

La cabine comporte une autre paroi 4 qui est opposée à la paroi 1, les deux parois se rejoignant à l'avant de la cabine dont l'arrière est fermée par une paroi de fond 5 sur laquelle est disposé l'appareil téléphonique 6 et ses accessoires. Avantageusement, les différentes parois sont translucides de manière à permettre un bon éclairage intérieur de la cabine; par ailleurs il est possible de se rendre compte à distance qu'une cabine est occupee. The cabin has another wall 4 which is opposite to the wall 1, the two walls joining at the front of the cabin, the rear of which is closed by a bottom wall 5 on which the telephone set 6 and its accessories. Advantageously, the various walls are translucent so as to allow good interior lighting of the cabin; in addition it is possible to realize from a distance that a cabin is occupied.

Conformément à l'invention, la porte 3 est montée à coulissement sur la paroi 1, et, selon un mode de réalisation, la partie supérieure 7 de la porte est fixée sur un support qui se déplace suivant un arc de cercle correspondant à celui de la paroi. Ce support peut être constitué par un chariot 8 comportant deux bras supports horizontaux 9 qui viennent saisir l'extrémité supérieure 7 de la porte 3. Ce chariot 8 comporte des roues 11 qui circulent dans un rail 12 qui présente un profil en arc de cercle concentrique à celui de la paroi 1. Le mouvement du chariot 8 est limité par deux butées 13 et 14. According to the invention, the door 3 is slidably mounted on the wall 1, and, according to one embodiment, the upper part 7 of the door is fixed on a support which moves in an arc corresponding to that of Wall. This support can be constituted by a carriage 8 comprising two horizontal support arms 9 which grip the upper end 7 of the door 3. This carriage 8 comprises wheels 11 which run in a rail 12 which has a profile in a concentric arc to that of the wall 1. The movement of the carriage 8 is limited by two stops 13 and 14.

Le chariot 8 comporte un bras 15 monté à rotation autour d'un axe 16 qui est disposé au centre des arcs de la paroi et du rail 12. The carriage 8 comprises an arm 15 mounted for rotation about an axis 16 which is arranged at the center of the arcs of the wall and of the rail 12.

La porte 3 comporte un dispositif de rappel en position de fermeture qui comporte essentiellement un ressort pneumatique rotatif 17 qui agit sur un bras 18 qui tourne autour de l'axe 19 du ressort. Le ressort pneumatique 17 agit sur le bras 15 du support de la porte 3 par l'intermédiaire d'une biellette 21 dont la longueur est réglable afin d'ajuster le dispositif de rappel qui vient d'être décrit. The door 3 comprises a return device in the closed position which essentially comprises a rotary pneumatic spring 17 which acts on an arm 18 which rotates around the axis 19 of the spring. The pneumatic spring 17 acts on the arm 15 of the support of the door 3 by means of a link 21 whose length is adjustable in order to adjust the return device which has just been described.

Comme on peut voir en particulier sur la figure 3, l'ensemble du chariot 8 et du système de rappel est disposé sur le toit 22 de la cabine. As can be seen in particular in Figure 3, the assembly of the carriage 8 and the return system is arranged on the roof 22 of the cabin.

Par ailleurs on prévoit un dispositif de guidage de la partie inférieure de la porte, de manière à éviter que celle-ci puisse être poussée vers l'extérieur, soit parce qu'un utilisateur s'appuie sur la porte, soit par un acte de vandalisme. Furthermore, a device is provided for guiding the lower part of the door, so as to prevent it from being pushed outwards, either because a user is leaning on the door, or by an act of vandalism.

On voit que l'invention permet de réaliser une cabine téléphonique dont l'emprise au sol est réduite et dont l'accès est très facile ; en particulier on a pu constater que la cabine selon l'invention peut contenir plusieurs personnes sans difficulté d'accès, ses capacité étant supérieures à celle d'une cabine classique de forme rectangulaire dans laquelle la cabine selon l'invention est inscrite, comme on peut le voir sur la figure 2, où l'on a représenté en 23 l'emprise au sol d'une cabine rectangulaire classique.  We see that the invention allows for a telephone booth whose footprint is reduced and whose access is very easy; in particular it has been observed that the cabin according to the invention can contain several people without difficulty of access, its capacity being greater than that of a conventional cabin of rectangular shape in which the cabin according to the invention is registered, as can be seen in Figure 2, where there is shown at 23 the footprint of a conventional rectangular cabin.
