Abstract

Beacon intended to signal the presence of a utility vehicle tailgate. The invention relates to a beacon making it possible to draw attention, day and night, to the presence of a tailgate in the working position at the rear of a vehicle. It is composed of a body, of a signalling system comprising a red light and circular reflecting part 14-15 and of three systems 7 for fixing to the various tailgates. This beacon is particularly intended for lorries equipped with hydraulically operating loading/unloading tailgates.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif destiné à avertir et protéger les personnes circulant principalement en ville, et plus particulièrement les utilisateurs de motos et cvclomoteurs, en leur signalant de jour comme de nuit, la présence d'un hayon de camion en position de travail. The present invention relates to a device intended to warn and protect people circulating mainly in the city, and more particularly users of motorcycles and mopeds, by signaling them day and night, the presence of a truck tailgate in the working position.

Compte tenu de sa destination le présent dispositif sera désigné et commercialisé par le titre " balise de hayon ". Given its destination, this device will be designated and marketed by the title "tailgate tag".

Matériaux : les éléments constituant le corps de balise peuvent être fabriqués en plastique souple, en plastique dur coloré dans la masse ou avec un revêtement, transparent, en caoutchouc, et par association de ces matériaux. Materials: the elements constituting the beacon body can be made of flexible plastic, of hard plastic colored in the mass or with a coating, transparent, of rubber, and by association of these materials.

Fabrication : par moulage traditionnel à ces matériaux. Manufacturing: by traditional molding with these materials.

Description des dessins annexés
La balise peut être constituée d'un seul corps Fig. I, ou en deux éléments constituant le corps Fie.2 et 3. es deux éléments peuvent être assemblés au moyen d'un filetage Fig. 2 et 3 (I), ou ou par le procédé dit à baionnette Fig. 2 et 3 (2).
Description of the attached drawings
The tag can consist of a single body Fig. I, or in two elements constituting the body Fie.2 and 3. es two elements can be assembled by means of a thread Fig. 2 and 3 (I), or or by the so-called bayonet method FIG. 2 and 3 (2).

La partie inferieure de la balise est pourvue d'une gorge sur environ les deux tiers de la circonférence Fig. (i7),ce qui permet à celle-ci de se courber sans dommage au cas où elle viendrait à toucher le sol lorsqu'elle est utilisée avec un hayon descendant selon un certain angle de pente.The lower part of the beacon is provided with a groove over about two thirds of the circumference Fig. (i7), which allows it to bend without damage in case it comes to touch the ground when used with a tailgate descending at a certain angle of slope.

La balise est percée d'au moins deux trous Fig.4 et 7 (5) pour permettre une éventuelle fixation de dépannage ailleurs que sur le hayon. Elle est équipée d'une prise à deux broches pour le raccordement au circuit électrique du véhicule. The beacon is pierced with at least two holes Fig. 4 and 7 (5) to allow possible fixing of troubleshooting elsewhere than on the tailgate. It is fitted with a two-pin plug for connection to the vehicle's electrical circuit.

Fixations : Elles peuvent etre prévues incorporées dans la masse au moment du coulage, ou être amovibles en utilisant les trous prévus à cet effet Fig.7 (6) en coupe. Fixings: They can be provided incorporated in the mass at the time of casting, or be removable using the holes provided for this purpose Fig. 7 (6) in section.

Fonctionnement des fixations : la fixation fabriquée en lame d'acier ressort Fig. 7(7) agit par pincement de la plaque du hayon, elle n'est limitée que par l'épaisseur de ce dernier.Fig, 5 (9). Functioning of the fasteners: the fastener made from a spring steel blade Fig. 7 (7) acts by pinching the tailgate plate, it is only limited by the thickness of the latter. Fig, 5 (9).

La fixation utilisant un boulon Fig. 4 (8) s'adapte à toutes les épaisseurs. Elle nécessite au préalable le percent du hayon pour laisser passer le boulon Fig. 5 (8), et la pose du tendeur représenté en vue de dessus Fig. 6. Ce tendeur est fabriqué avec du fil d'acier ressort, d'un diamètre d'environ trois millimètres, il est fixé à demeure sous le hayon avec un boulon Fia. 6 (II).  The fixing using a bolt Fig. 4 (8) adapts to all thicknesses. It requires beforehand the percent of the tailgate to let pass the bolt Fig. 5 (8), and the installation of the tensioner shown in top view FIG. 6. This tensioner is manufactured with spring steel wire, with a diameter of about three millimeters, it is fixed permanently under the tailgate with a Fia bolt. 6 (II).

Par l'intermédiaire de son extrémité en forme d'anneau
Fig. 6 (I2), ce tendeur maintient la partie du boulon sortant du hayon en exercant sur lui un effet de traction Fig 5 (IO).
Via its ring-shaped end
Fig. 6 (I2), this tensioner holds the part of the bolt leaving the tailgate by exerting on it a pulling effect Fig 5 (IO).

Une troisième possibilité de fixation est prévue, elle est composée d'une plaque aimantée représente sur la Fiq. 8 par le secteur O B C, maintenue par trois vis à tête fraisée, Fig. 8 (I6!. A third fixing possibility is provided, it is composed of a magnetic plate depicted on the Fiq. 8 by sector O B C, held by three countersunk head screws, Fig. 8 (I6 !.

Signalisation : un système de signalisation du type feu route est prévu, soit incorporé à l'intérieur de la balise dans sa partie haute Fig. 2 (I3), soit fixé à l'extérieur au sommet de la balise
Fig. I (I4).
Signaling: a signaling system of the high beam type is provided, which is incorporated inside the beacon in its upper part. 2 (I3), either attached to the outside at the top of the tag
Fig. I (I4).

Un système réfléchissant est prévu sur toute la circonférence de la partie supérieure, en-dessous le feu rouge Fig. I et 2 (il!.  A reflective system is provided around the entire circumference of the upper part, below the red light Fig. I and 2 (il !.

Cette partie réfléchissante peut être obtenue dans la masse au moment du coulage, ou par recouvrement au moyen d'une bande roflé- chissante visible par tous conducteurs et piétons venant aussi bien de l'carrière que sur les côtés du hayon.This reflective part can be obtained in the mass at the time of casting, or by covering by means of a reflective strip visible by all drivers and pedestrians coming both from the quarry and from the sides of the tailgate.

Les dimensions et caractéristiques de la balise èt des systèmes de signalisation seront déterminées selon les règlements imposés. The dimensions and characteristics of the beacon and of the signaling systems will be determined according to the regulations imposed.

Cette balise est particulièrement indiquée lorsque les véhicules utilitaires et plus spécialement les camions, comportent un hayon de chargement-déchargement à fonctionnement hydraulique.  This tag is particularly indicated when commercial vehicles and more particularly trucks, have a loading and unloading tailgate with hydraulic operation.
