Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de fixer au sol, les mottes de gazon sur les terrains de sport, les champs de courses, et plus particulièrement sur les terrains de golf. The present invention relates to a device for fixing to the ground, clods of grass on sports fields, racetracks, and more particularly on golf courses.
On ne connaissait pas jusqu'a présent de dispositif de ce genre, destiné & refixer les mottes de gazon soulevées et arrachées par l'action des joueurs ou des chevaux. Ces mottes de gazon arrachées dans l'action étaient remises avec un maillet, un marteau, le talon, la main suivie d'une pression du pied ou tout autre moyen. Until now, no device of this kind has been known, intended for fixing the clods of grass raised and torn off by the action of players or horses. These clods of turf torn from the action were delivered with a mallet, hammer, heel, hand followed by pressure from the foot or any other means.
Cette flacon de remettre la motte de gazon à son emplacement initial présentait l'inconvénient que celle-ci n'étant pas fixée pouvait entre déplacée, soit par l'action d'éléments naturels : le vent, la pluie soit par des animaux à la recherche d'insectes ou par le passage des tondeuses. This bottle of returning the clod of grass to its original location had the disadvantage that it was not fixed could be moved between, either by the action of natural elements: wind, rain or by animals in the search for insects or by the passage of mowers.
Le dispositif suivant l'invention, permet d'éviter ces inconvénients. En effet, il est possible, de fixer les mottes de gazon remises en place, par un moyen rendant solidaire cette motte de gazon du terrain de sport, de courses ou de golf et empêcher de ce fait cette motte de gazon de se déplacer lors des actions décrites précédemment, en laissant par exemple une empreinte suffisamment profonde pouvant gener la bonne exécution d'un coup de golf et pénaliser ainsi un joueur si la balle y prend place. Ce moyen de fixation de la motte de gazon peut prendre diverses formes et garantie l'uniformité des terrains de sports.. The device according to the invention makes it possible to avoid these drawbacks. Indeed, it is possible to fix the clods of turf put back in place, by a means making this clod of turf integral with the sports, racing or golf course and thereby prevent this clod of turf from moving during actions described above, for example by leaving a sufficiently deep imprint that could hinder the proper execution of a golf stroke and thus penalize a player if the ball takes place there. This means of fixing the lawn ball can take various forms and guarantees the uniformity of sports fields.
Le dispositif, objet de l'invention comporte un élément de fixation comportant une partie supérieure associée å une tige. La partie supérieure de ce dispositif peut être arrondie, circulaire corne un disque, rectangulaire, de forme géométrique quelconque, de la forez d'un "V" ou d'un "U" renversé. The device which is the subject of the invention comprises a fixing element comprising an upper part associated with a rod. The upper part of this device can be rounded, circular like a disc, rectangular, of any geometric shape, drill it with a "V" or an inverted "U".
Cette partie superieure formant tête permet de maintenir rivée la motte de gazon au terrain et une meilleure adhérence. L'extrémité en contact avec la motte de gazon et pénétrant dans le terrain sous-jacent a une forme pointue et comprend une ou plusieurs tiges qui peuvent être solidaires en partie superieure ou inférieure, elles permettent å la motte de gazon de rester river au terrain.Cette tige de diamètre plus ou moins large peut être cylindrique, comporter des ergots pour mieux la fixer, elle peut avoir des ondulations ou des crantages afin de retenir la motte de gazon plaquée au terrain, ou prendre la forme d'un "U" renversé ou d'un "V". Sur le dispositif en forme de "V", la partie inférieure s'ouvre, forme une pince donnant un effet de pression latérale, ce qui permet le maintien de la motte de gazon au terrain. This upper part forming a head keeps the clod of turf on the ground and better grip. The end in contact with the sod and penetrating into the underlying ground has a pointed shape and includes one or more rods which can be integral in the upper or lower part, they allow the sod to remain riveted to the ground .This rod of more or less wide diameter can be cylindrical, include lugs to better fix it, it can have undulations or notches in order to retain the clod of turf applied to the ground, or take the form of a "U" overturned or a "V". On the "V" -shaped device, the lower part opens, forming a clamp giving a lateral pressure effect, which makes it possible to maintain the clod of turf on the ground.
Des ardillons peuvent s'ancrer à la tige, pour assurer une meilleure fixation aux mottes de gazon. Barbs can be anchored to the stem, to ensure better attachment to clods.
Ces dispositifs peuvent être de différentes tailles, selon l'importance de la motte de gazon enlevée, à refixer au terrain
Le dispositif peut être en bois, en carton méché, en matière biodégradable, en matière plastique, en produit de synthèse destructible dans l'élément naturel ou en toute autre matière. Ce dispositif peut être fabriqué par production par emboutissage dans des plaques de carton, de bois ou de matière plastique.These devices can be of different sizes, depending on the size of the sod removed, to be reattached to the ground
The device can be made of wood, cardboard, biodegradable material, plastic, synthetic product destructible in the natural element or any other material. This device can be produced by production by stamping in cardboard, wood or plastic plates.
Ce genre de dispositif de fixation permet de maintenir la motte de gazon en compression contre le terrain, de favoriser la repousse des racines, et ainsi de garantir l'uniformité du terrain. This type of fixing device makes it possible to maintain the clod of turf in compression against the ground, to favor the regrowth of the roots, and thus to guarantee the uniformity of the ground.
Le dessin annexé illustre, a titre d'exemple, un iode de réalisation du dispositif conforme a la présente invention. The accompanying drawing illustrates, by way of example, an iodine embodiment of the device according to the present invention.
La figure 1 représente le dispositif avec une tige biseautée, pointue a l'extrémité et une tête arrondie. Figure 1 shows the device with a beveled rod, pointed at the end and a rounded head.
La figure 2 représente le même dispositif avec au bout de la tige des ergots. Figure 2 shows the same device with pins at the end of the rod.
Comme le montre la figure 3 la tête et la tige peuvent être rectangulaires. As shown in Figure 3 the head and the rod can be rectangular.
Les figures 4 et 5 représentent la tige du dispositif de forme ondulée ou crantée afin de permettre une adhérance plus forte de la motte de gazon au terrain. Figures 4 and 5 show the rod of the device in a wavy or notched shape to allow a stronger adhesion of the clod of grass to the ground.
La figure 6 représente le dispositif dont la tige est double, en forme de "V", ce qui provoque un effet de pince c'est à dire de pression latérale lors de l'enfoncement dans la motte de gazon et le terrain sous-jacent. FIG. 6 represents the device, the rod of which is double, in the shape of a "V", which causes a clamping effect, that is to say of lateral pressure when sinking into the clod of turf and the underlying ground .
La figure 7 représente le dispositif dont la tige est double, en forme de "U", renversé pour une meilleure fixation de la motte de gazon selon les terrains. De même la double tige de "U" renversé peut etre remplacé par 3 ou plusieurs tiges. FIG. 7 shows the device, the rod of which is double, in the shape of a "U", inverted for better fixing of the clod of turf depending on the terrain. Similarly, the double inverted "U" rod can be replaced by 3 or more rods.
La figure 8 démontre que la tete du dispositif peut prendre plusieurs formes : ronde, carrée, rectangulaire, etc. Figure 8 shows that the head of the device can take several forms: round, square, rectangular, etc.
La figure 9 représente un ergot servant å maintenir la tige, pour une meilleure fixation de la motte de gazon au terrain sous-Jacent. FIG. 9 represents a lug serving to hold the rod, for a better fixing of the clod of turf to the underlying ground.
Ce dispositif, objet de l'invention peut être utilisé pour fixer les mottes de gazon au terrain de sport, de golf ou sur les champs de courses lorsque ces mottes de gazon sont arrachées pendant le Jeu des joueurs ou les courses de chevaux. Cette fixation au terrain permet donc une bonne repousse des mottes de gazon et une meilleure qualité du terrain. This device, object of the invention can be used to fix the clods of turf to the sports field, golf course or on the racetracks when these clods of turf are torn off during the Game of players or horse races. This attachment to the ground therefore allows good regrowth of sods and better quality of the ground.
Ce dispositif de fixation peut être utilisé sur tous les terrains engazonnés qui sont souvent exposes aux arrachages de mottes de gazon durant le Jeux des Joueurs ou les courses de chevaux. This fixing device can be used on all turfed grounds which are often exposed to uprooting of clods of turf during the Players' Games or horse races.
