Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un appareil électrique de signalisation, du type mural, qu'on appelle gulde-pas, comprenant un corps en forme de bottier, un dispositif d'éclalrage porté par ce corps et un dispositif de régulation de la luminosité. The present invention relates to an electrical signaling device, of the wall type, which is called gulde-pas, comprising a body in the form of a boot, a lighting device carried by this body and a device for regulating the brightness.
On connaît des appareils électriques de signalisation, du type mural, que, pour raccourcir, on mentionnera par la suite sous le terme "guide-pas". There are known electrical signaling devices, of the wall type, which, for shortening, will be mentioned later under the term "guide-not".
Les types les plus simples et économiques de guide-pas sont dépourvus de dispositifs de régulation de la luminosité. The simplest and most economical types of step guide do not have brightness controls.
Toutefois, à un niveau économique comparable, il existe aussi des guide-pas à luminosité réglable dans lesquels le dispositif de régulation de la luminosité est constitué par un rideau. Un tel rideau présente cependant une fiabilité mécanique médiocre due à des accrochages fréquents au cours de son fonctionnement. However, at a comparable economic level, there are also step guides with adjustable brightness in which the brightness control device consists of a curtain. Such a curtain however has poor mechanical reliability due to frequent snagging during its operation.
Des guide-pas d'un type plus fiable et précis sont ceux dans lesquels la luminosité est réglée à l'aide d'un potentiomètre ou de ce que l'on appelle variateur. Step guides of a more reliable and precise type are those in which the brightness is adjusted using a potentiometer or what is called a dimmer.
Toutefois, le prix de ces derniers guide-pas est franchement élevé étant donné leur complexicité. Cette complexicité provoque également une augmentation des risques de panne. However, the price of these latter guide-steps is downright high given their complexity. This complexity also increases the risk of breakdown.
C'est pourquoi la présente invention a pour but de fournir un guide-pas à dispositif de régulation de la luminosité qui associe de bonnes caractéristiques de fiabilité mécanique à un prix limité, ce qui remédie ainsi aux inconvénients précédemment cités. This is why the present invention aims to provide a step guide to a brightness control device which combines good mechanical reliability characteristics at a limited price, which thus overcomes the drawbacks mentioned above.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un guide-pas du type indiqué, caractérisé en ce que le dispositif de régulation de la luminosité est un cylindre déplaçable angulairement autour de son axe principal et dont une partie de la surface latérale est transparente à la lumière. To this end, the subject of the invention is a step guide of the indicated type, characterized in that the brightness regulation device is a cylinder which can be displaced angularly around its main axis and of which a part of the lateral surface is transparent to the light.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront de la description qui va suivre, à titre d'exemple non limitatif et en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels : la fig. 1 représente une vue en perspective et éclatée d'un guide-pas conforme à l'invention, la fig. 2 représente une vue de dessus et partlellement en coupe d'un détail du guide-pas de la figure 1 et la fig. 3 représente une vue en perspective de ce guide-pas de la fig. 1 en position de service. Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from the description which follows, by way of nonlimiting example and with reference to the appended drawings in which: FIG. 1 shows a perspective and exploded view of a guide not according to the invention, FIG. 2 shows a top view and partly in section of a detail of the step guide of FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of this guide-not of FIG. 1 in service position.
En se reportant à ces figures, la référence 1 désigne dans son ensemble un appareil électrique de signalisation, du type mural, que l'on appelle guide-pas. Referring to these figures, the reference 1 designates as a whole an electrical signaling device, of the wall type, which is called guide-not.
Le guide-pas 1 est constitué d'un corps 2, en forme ae boîtier, dans lequel est ménagé un logement semi-cylindrique 2a dans lequel est situé en position centrale un dispositif d'éclairage 3 formé d'une lampe 3a portée par une paire de contacts 4. Il est en outre prévu un dispositif ce régulation de la luminosité 13 décrit plus loin. The step guide 1 consists of a body 2, in the form of a housing, in which a semi-cylindrical housing 2a is formed in which is located in the central position a lighting device 3 formed by a lamp 3a carried by a pair of contacts 4. There is further provided a device for regulating the brightness 13 described below.
Dans le logement 2a, il est prévu, latéralement à chaque contact 4, une languette 5 flexible et de forme sensiblement triangulaire, fixée en position dressée, avec sa base Sa reliée au fond 2b du logement 2a, et avec un sommet arrondi 5b au niveau duquel fait saillie un tourillon 5c. Le tourillon 5c de chaque languette 5 est destiné à s'emboîter à l'in térieur d'un trou correspondant 6 ménagé en position centrale sur la base en regard respective 7a ou 7b d'un cylindre 7 offrant une surface latérale partiellement ouverte. In the housing 2a, there is provided, laterally at each contact 4, a flexible tongue 5 of substantially triangular shape, fixed in the upright position, with its base Sa connected to the bottom 2b of the housing 2a, and with a rounded top 5b at the level from which protrudes a pin 5c. The pin 5c of each tongue 5 is intended to fit inside a corresponding hole 6 formed in a central position on the respective facing base 7a or 7b of a cylinder 7 offering a partially open lateral surface.
Ce cylindre 7 est en matériau opaque et présente en outre dans sa surface latérale restante 7c une partie 7d transparente à la lumière. This cylinder 7 is made of opaque material and further has in its remaining lateral surface 7c a part 7d transparent to light.
Ce cylindre 7 est par conséquent déplaçable angulairement autour de son axe principal du fait de l'accouplement pivotant des trous 6 de ses bases avec les tourillons 5c des languettes 5 de support. This cylinder 7 is therefore angularly movable around its main axis due to the pivoting coupling of the holes 6 of its bases with the pins 5c of the support tabs 5.
Entre chaque contact 4 et chaque languette 5, il est prévu deux dents de fourchette 8 offrant une extrêmité fixée au fond 2b du logement 2a et faisant saillie par rapport à celui-ci parallèlement à la languette 5. Between each contact 4 and each tongue 5, two fork teeth 8 are provided, offering an end fixed to the bottom 2b of the housing 2a and projecting relative to the latter parallel to the tongue 5.
Ces dents de fourchette sont destinées à constituer une fin de course pour la flexion de chaque languette 5 vers l'intérieur du logement 2e, à l'occa- sion d'un désemboîtement des tourillons 5c hors des trous 6 des bases du cylindre 7. Par ailleurs, les côtés 12 de la languette 5 constituent un épaulement de butée pour la surface latérale ouverte 7c du cylindre 7 au cours des déplacements angulaires de ce dernier.These fork teeth are intended to constitute an end of stroke for the bending of each tongue 5 towards the interior of the housing 2e, on the occasion of a disengagement of the pins 5c out of the holes 6 of the bases of the cylinder 7. Furthermore, the sides 12 of the tongue 5 constitute an abutment shoulder for the open lateral surface 7c of the cylinder 7 during the angular displacements of the latter.
La surface latérale 7c du cylindre 7 comprend en outre une partie molletée 9 à proximité de l'une des bases de ce cylindre. The lateral surface 7c of the cylinder 7 further comprises a knurled portion 9 near one of the bases of this cylinder.
Le corps 2 du guide-pas 1 est placé dans un châssis 1U d'un ensemble civil d'appareils électriques muraux connu dans le commerce sous la aénomination LIVING et produit par le présente Demanderesse. The body 2 of the step guide 1 is placed in a 1U chassis of a civilian set of wall electrical appliances known in the trade under the name LIVING and produced by the present Applicant.
Un cadre li est monté d'une manière classique sur ce châssis 1U de façon telle que le cylindre 7 se trouve faire saillie par rapport à ce cadre, montrant à la vue se partie transparente 7d. A frame li is mounted in a conventional manner on this frame 1U in such a way that the cylinder 7 is found to protrude relative to this frame, showing in view its transparent part 7d.
En agissent à la main sur le molletage 9 et en faisant tourner le cylindre 7 autour de son axe principal, on peut rendre partielle la surface de la partie transparente 7d. Ce faisant, on fait varier le diffusion lumineuse du guide-pas en pruduisant un obscurcissement de la partie 7d transparente à la lumière. By acting by hand on the knurling 9 and by rotating the cylinder 7 around its main axis, the surface of the transparent part 7d can be made partial. In doing so, the light scattering of the step guide is varied, while taking care to obscure the part 7d transparent to light.
L'appareil électrique guide-pas conforme à l'invention a le grano avantage d'être particulièrement simple et d'une réalisation et d'un assemblage faciles, en associant de bonnes caractéristiques de fiabilité mécanique à un prix limité. The electrical guide device not in accordance with the invention has the great advantage of being particularly simple and of easy production and assembly, by combining good mechanical reliability characteristics at a limited price.
