Description

La présente invention est relative aux appareils de bureau du type connu comprenant des moyens d'analyse de documents, notamment en vue de leur reproduction ou de leur émission à distance, et des moyens supports pour supporter les documents à analyser et les guider vers une entrée dont sont pourvus lesdits moyens d'analyse.The present invention relates to office devices of the known type comprising means for analyzing documents, in particular with a view to their reproduction or their remote transmission, and support means for supporting the documents to be analyzed and guiding them to an entry. with which said means of analysis are provided.

L'invention s'applique en particulier aux télécopieurs actuels, dans lesquels les moyens d'analyse comprennent un dispositif d'entraînement du document à analyser devant une tête d'analyse immobile. L'invention pourrait également s'appliquer à d'autres appareils, et notamment à des photocopieurs.The invention applies in particular to current facsimile machines, in which the analysis means comprise a device for driving the document to be analyzed in front of a stationary analysis head. The invention could also be applied to other devices, and in particular to photocopiers.

En général, les moyens supports comprennent un chargeur formant glissière, de la largeur des documents à analyser, inclinée vers l'entrée des moyens d'analyse, qui est le plus souvent une fente horizontale. Chaque document à analyser est ainsi entraîné sous l'effet de son propre poids vers la fente, à laquelle il se présente dans une position correcte du fait de son guidage par la glissière. En général, la fente est pratiquée dans la partie supérieure, et le chargeur est donc en saillie par rapport au corps de l'appareil.In general, the support means comprise a feeder forming a slide, the width of the documents to be analyzed, inclined towards the entry of the analysis means, which is most often a horizontal slot. Each document to be analyzed is thus driven under the effect of its own weight towards the slot, at which it is in a correct position due to its guidance by the slide. In general, the slot is made in the upper part, and the charger is therefore projecting from the body of the device.

Dans les télécopieurs connus, le chargeur est monté fixe par rapport au boîtier. I1 en résulte un encombrement important de l'appareil, que celui-ci soit en position de repos ou en position de travail.In known fax machines, the charger is mounted fixed relative to the housing. I1 results in a large footprint of the device, whether it is in the rest position or in the working position.

Dans certains appareils, portables, le chargeur est amovible pour faciliter le transport de l'appareil.In some portable devices, the charger is removable for easy transport of the device.

Toutefois, dans ce cas, il doit être transporté séparément, ce qui est en soi une source de gêne et entraîne des risques de perte en cours de transport. However, in this case, it must be transported separately, which in itself is a source of discomfort and involves the risk of loss during transport.

De plus, toujours dans le cas d'un appareil portable, il est prevu un couvercle amovible, pour protéger, pendant le transport, le clavier de commande de l'appareil. Ce couvercle risque d'être égare pendant les périodes de travail du télécopieur, et doit être mis en place séparément avant le transport.In addition, always in the case of a portable device, there is provided a removable cover, to protect, during transport, the control keyboard of the device. This cover may be lost during the fax work period, and must be installed separately before transport.

La présente invention vise à pallier les inconvénients précédents.The present invention aims to overcome the above drawbacks.

A cet effet, elle a pour objet un appareil du type défini ci-dessus, caractérisé par le fait que lesdits moyens supports sont montes pivotants sur un axe s'étendant le long de ladite entre, pour être rabattus contre une face de l'appareil, en position de repos.To this end, it relates to a device of the type defined above, characterized in that said support means are pivotally mounted on an axis extending along said between, to be folded against a face of the device , in the rest position.

Avantageusement, ladite face est pourvue d'organes de commande et lesdits moyens supports protègent lesdits organes de commande, lorsqu'ils sont rabattus.Advantageously, said face is provided with control members and said support means protect said control members, when they are folded down.

Avantageusement encore, lesdits moyens supports comprennent un evidement autorisant l'accès à certains desdits organes de commande, lorsqu'ils sont rabattus
La présente invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description suivante de la forme de réalisation préférée de l'appareil de bureau de l'invention, faite en se référant aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels - la figure 1 représente l'appareil de bureau de l'invention en position de travail, et, - la figure 2 représente l'appareil de la figure 1 en position de repos, ou de transport.
Advantageously also, said support means comprise a recess allowing access to some of said control members, when they are folded down
The present invention will be better understood on reading the following description of the preferred embodiment of the desktop device of the invention, made with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which - Figure 1 shows the desktop device of the invention in the working position, and, - Figure 2 shows the apparatus of Figure 1 in the rest position, or transport.

Sur la figure 1 est représenté un appareil de bureau, en l'occurrence un télécopieur, prévu pour analyser des documents en vue de leur transmission à distance. Comme cela a déjà été signalé, l'invention est relative au dispositif qui supporte les documents à analyser et les guide vers l'entrée d'analyse du télécopieur, dispositif souvent appelé chargeur.In FIG. 1 is shown a desktop device, in this case a fax machine, provided for analyzing documents with a view to their remote transmission. As already mentioned, the invention relates to the device which supports the documents to be analyzed and guides them to the analysis input of the fax machine, a device often called a charger.

Le télécopieur de la figure 1 se présente sous la forme d'un boîtier de forme globalement parallélépipèdique.The facsimile machine of FIG. 1 is in the form of a box of generally rectangular shape.

Son entrée d'analyse est une fente 2 pratiquée dans la face horizontale supérieure du boîtier, fente 2 qui s'étend ici le long de l'arête que forme cette face horizontale avec la face avant 4 de l'appareil. Cette face avant 4 est ici légèrement inclinée pour être orientée vers un utilisateur debout lorsque le télécopieur est disposé sur une table, et elle est pourvue d'organes de commande, ici une pluralité de touches 41 formant un clavier.Its analysis input is a slot 2 made in the upper horizontal face of the housing, slot 2 which here extends along the edge formed by this horizontal face with the front face 4 of the device. This front face 4 is here slightly inclined to be oriented towards a standing user when the facsimile machine is placed on a table, and it is provided with control members, here a plurality of keys 41 forming a keyboard.

Le dispositif destiné à supporter les documents à analyser, tels que le document 11, est ici une plaque plane 1, de la même largeur que celle du boîtier du télécopieur, et montée pivotante sur un axe 3 s'étendant le long de la fente 2. En position de travail, la plaque 1 est inclinée d'un angle convenable pour supporter le ou les documents à analyser, tels que le document 11, et pour les guider vers la fente 2. Elle est pourvue à cet effet de bords latéraux 13 s'étendant verticalement pour former une glissière.The device intended to support the documents to be analyzed, such as document 11, is here a flat plate 1, the same width as that of the facsimile machine, and pivotally mounted on an axis 3 extending along the slot 2 In the working position, the plate 1 is inclined at an angle suitable for supporting the document or documents to be analyzed, such as the document 11, and for guiding them towards the slot 2. It is provided for this purpose with lateral edges 13 extending vertically to form a slide.

En position de repos, ou de transport du télécopieur, la plaque 1 est rabattue contre la face avant 4 de l'appareil. Ainsi l'encombrement de l'appareil se trouve réduit, et du même coup les touches 41 du clavier sont protégées. In the rest position, or transport of the fax machine, the plate 1 is folded against the front face 4 of the device. Thus the size of the device is reduced, and at the same time the keys 41 of the keyboard are protected.

Ici, selon une v ariante avantageuse mais non obligatoire, la plaque 1 est pourvue d'un évidement 12 qui autorise l'accès à certaines des touches 41 lorsqu'elle est en position rabattue. Ces touches peuvent être celles qui commandent les fonctions principales de l'appareil, qui restent ainsi disponibles, que la plaque 1 soit en position de travail, ou en position de repos.Here, according to an advantageous but not compulsory variant, the plate 1 is provided with a recess 12 which allows access to some of the keys 41 when it is in the folded position. These keys can be those which control the main functions of the device, which thus remain available, whether the plate 1 is in the working position, or in the rest position.

Naturellement, la présente invention n'est pas limitée à la forme de réalisation qui vient d'être décrite. Ainsi, il n'est pas obligatoire que le chargeur protège, en position rabattue, le clavier. Notamment, si la fente 2 est disposée au milieu de la face horizontale, le chargeur peut être rabattu contre cette face horizontale, par exemple. Naturally, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described. Thus, it is not compulsory that the charger protects, in the folded position, the keyboard. In particular, if the slot 2 is arranged in the middle of the horizontal face, the magazine can be folded against this horizontal face, for example.
