Description

L'invention concerne une ceinture de fixation d'une plante à un tuteur. The invention relates to a belt for fixing a plant to a stake.

L'invention est caractérisée en ce qu'elle se compose d'une bande souple en matière plastique ou autre pourvue, dans la zone médiane de l'une de ses faces, de rainures orientées de manière générale transversalement à la bande, cette zone médiane se poursuivant, vers l'une des extrémités de la bande, par une zone pourvue, sur les deux bords latéraux de la bande, d'encoches opposées deux à deux et régulièrement réparties, vers l'autre extrémité de la bande, par une zone pourvue tout d'abord d'une fente orientée transversalement à la bande puis, ensuite, d'au moins une fente orientée longitudinalement à la bande. The invention is characterized in that it consists of a flexible strip of plastic or other material provided, in the median zone of one of its faces, with grooves oriented generally transversely to the band, this median zone continuing, towards one end of the strip, by a zone provided, on the two lateral edges of the strip, notches opposite in pairs and regularly distributed, towards the other end of the strip, by a zone provided first of all with a slot oriented transversely to the strip and then, at least, with at least one slot oriented longitudinally with the strip.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'in- vention, la longueur des fentes orientées transversa- lement et longitudinalement correspond à la largeur de la bande, la largeur de ces fentes correspondant à la largeur de la bande à hauteur des encoches opposées prévues dans la zone d'extrémité opposée de cette bande. According to another characteristic of the invention, the length of the transversely and longitudinally oriented slots corresponds to the width of the strip, the width of these slots corresponding to the width of the strip at the height of the opposite notches provided in the zone. opposite end of this strip.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les rainures transversales sont orientées perpendiculairement à l'axe longitudinal de la bande. According to another characteristic of the invention, the transverse grooves are oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the strip.

L'invention est représentée à titre d'exem ple non limitatif sur les dessins ci-joints, dans lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue en élévation d'un mode de réalisation de la ceinture de l'invention,
- la figure 2 est une vue de dessous de la figure 1,
- la figure 3 est une vue schématique représentant le mode d'attache d'une plante à un tuteur, à l'aide de la ceinture de l'invention.The invention is shown by way of nonlimiting example in the accompanying drawings, in which
FIG. 1 is an elevation view of an embodiment of the belt of the invention,
FIG. 2 is a bottom view of FIG. 1,
- Figure 3 is a schematic view showing the method of attachment of a plant to a stake, using the belt of the invention.

La présente invention a en conséquence pour but la réalisation d'une ceinture qui permet une fixation simple et rapide de la tige d'une plante à un tuteur, sans que l'on risque d'exercer un serrage trop important de la ceinture lors de son montage, tout en autorisant un jeu suffisant de la ceinture pour permettre sa croissance sans détériorer cette plante. The present invention therefore aims to achieve a belt which allows simple and quick attachment of the stem of a plant to a stake, without the risk of exerting too great a tightening of the belt during its mounting, while allowing sufficient play of the belt to allow its growth without damaging this plant.

En outre, cette ceinture permet d'assurer l'écoulement de l'eau, en évitant sa stagnation entre la ceinture et la tige de la plante. In addition, this belt ensures the flow of water, avoiding its stagnation between the belt and the stem of the plant.

Cette ceinture se compose d'une bande plane 1 en matière plastique ou caoutchouc, de façon à constituer une bande souple, latérales extensible notamment dans le sens longitudinal et compressible dans le sens transversal. This belt consists of a flat band 1 of plastic or rubber, so as to constitute a flexible band, lateral stretchable in particular in the longitudinal direction and compressible in the transverse direction.

Cette bande comprend trois zones de longueur sensiblement équivalente, une zone médiane 2 encadrée par deux zones d'extrémité 3 et 4. This strip comprises three zones of substantially equivalent length, a central zone 2 framed by two end zones 3 and 4.

La zone médiane 2 est pourvue sur l'une de ses faces, de rainures transversales 5 de forme trapézoïdale, délimitant entre elles des nervures dont le sommet est plus étroit que la base. The middle zone 2 is provided on one of its faces with transverse grooves 5 of trapezoidal shape, delimiting between them ribs whose apex is narrower than the base.

La zone d'extrémité 3 est pourvue d'encoches latérales 6 opposées deux à deux et régulièrement réparties, alors que l'autre zone d'extrémité 4 est pourvue, tout d'abord, d'une fente transversale rectangulaire 7 puis de deux fentes longitudinales 8. The end zone 3 is provided with lateral notches 6 opposite two by two and regularly distributed, while the other end zone 4 is provided, first of all, with a rectangular transverse slot 7 then with two slots longitudinal 8.

Les encoches latérales opposées deux à deux 6 présentent un pan coupé 61 sur leur bord situé à l'opposé de l'extrémité correspondante 31 de la bande. The side notches opposite two by two 6 have a cutaway 61 on their edge situated opposite the corresponding end 31 of the strip.

La largeur des fentes transversale 7 et longitudinales 8 correspond à l'épaisseur de la bande 1, alors que leur longueur correspond à la largeur de cette bande. The width of the transverse 7 and longitudinal 8 slots corresponds to the thickness of the strip 1, while their length corresponds to the width of this strip.

Egalement, la largeur des noeuds 62 subsistant entre les encoches opposées 6, est égale à la largeur des fentes transversale 7 et longitudinales 8. Also, the width of the nodes 62 remaining between the opposed notches 6 is equal to the width of the transverse 7 and longitudinal 8 slots.

On notera également que, dans l'exemple représenté, les rainures transversales 5 de la zone médiane 2 sont orientées perpendiculairement à l'axe longitudinal de la bande mais, suivant un autre mode de réalisation, ces rainures 5 pourront être réalisées légèrement en oblique afin que, lors de la mise en place de la ceinture autour d'une plante, cette dernière ne puisse pas venir se coincer dans ces encoches. It will also be noted that, in the example shown, the transverse grooves 5 of the median zone 2 are oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the strip but, according to another embodiment, these grooves 5 may be made slightly oblique in order to that, when the belt is placed around a plant, the latter cannot get caught in these notches.

Le montage de cette ceinture s'effectue en formant un huit dont les deux boucles sont disposées l'une autour du tuteur 9, l'autre autour de la plante 10 (voir figure 3). The mounting of this belt is done by forming an eight, the two loops of which are arranged one around the stake 9, the other around the plant 10 (see FIG. 3).

Lors de ce montage, la face rainurée de la zone médiane 2 est disposée autour de la tige de la plante, puis l'extrémité 31 est introduite à coulissement dans la fente transversale 7. Cette extrémité 3 est ensuite passée autour du tuteur g puis, après un pivotement de 90-, introduite dans l'une des fentes longitudinales 8. On exerce alors une traction convenable sur les deux extrémités de la bande, jusqu'à ce que l'un des noeuds 62 se place à hauteur d'une des fentes longitudinales 8. Après un pivotement de 90- en sens contraire, on verrouille la ceinture en appli quant les bords de deux encoches opposées 6 contre les bords de l'une des fentes 8. Cette mise en place de la bande est facilitée par les pans coupés 6, tandis qu'on obtient un verrouillage efficace du fait des flancs opposés raides des encoches 6. During this mounting, the grooved face of the middle zone 2 is arranged around the stem of the plant, then the end 31 is slidably introduced into the transverse slot 7. This end 3 is then passed around the stake g then, after a pivoting of 90-, introduced into one of the longitudinal slots 8. A suitable traction is then exerted on the two ends of the strip, until one of the nodes 62 is placed at the height of one of the longitudinal slots 8. After pivoting 90- in the opposite direction, the belt is locked by applying the edges of two opposite notches 6 against the edges of one of the slots 8. This positioning of the strip is facilitated by the cut sides 6, while effective locking is obtained due to the opposite stiff sides of the notches 6.

On remarquera que lors du montage de la ceinture, la fente transversale 7 permet le libre coulissement de l'extrémité opposée de la bande et cela entre le tuteur et la tige de la plante, afin d'obtenir un serrage uniforme sur toute la longueur de la bande et afin de maintenir ce serrage uniforme lors de la croissance de la plante. Les rainures 5 dirigées vers la plante permettent également de réduire la pression élastique de la bande sur la plante.  It will be noted that during the mounting of the belt, the transverse slot 7 allows the free sliding of the opposite end of the strip and this between the stake and the stem of the plant, in order to obtain a uniform tightening over the entire length of the band and in order to maintain this uniform tightening during the growth of the plant. The grooves 5 directed towards the plant also make it possible to reduce the elastic pressure of the strip on the plant.
