Description

La présente invention concerne un écrou à fût taraudé. The present invention relates to a threaded barrel nut.

Elle vise également un élément tel que par exemple un panneau muni de cet écrou. It also relates to an element such as for example a panel provided with this nut.

On connalt déjà divers types d'écrou à fût taraudé et comprenant d'une manière générale une embase munie d'un fût taraude qui s'étend orthogonalement depuis une face de l'embase au droit d'un orifice pratiqué dans cette embase. We already know various types of threaded barrel nut and generally comprising a base provided with a threaded barrel which extends orthogonally from one face of the base to the right of an orifice made in this base.

Ces écrous peuvent être du type dit à bois, c'est-à-dire comportent une embase avec dents, de sorte qu'en enfonçant l'écrou à l'aide d'un marteau au travers d'un panneau, les dents de l'embase viennent en prise avec ledit panneau, ce qui immobilise l'écrou en rotation pour permettre le vissage. These nuts can be of the so-called wood type, that is to say have a base with teeth, so that by driving the nut with a hammer through a panel, the teeth of the base engage with said panel, which immobilizes the rotating nut to allow screwing.

On connalt également des écrous du type dit à souder comportant une embase apte à etre fixée sur une pièce, telle qutune tôle, par soudage. Also known are nuts of the so-called weld type comprising a base suitable for being fixed on a part, such as a sheet metal, by welding.

La présente invention a pour but de proposer un écrou à fût taraudé qui peut être mis en place immédiatement sur un panneau par exemple, et cela sans la nécessité d'utiliser un outillage quelconque pour la fixation de l'écrou. The present invention aims to provide a threaded barrel nut which can be put in place immediately on a panel for example, and without the need to use any tool for fixing the nut.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un écrou à fût taraudé du type comprenant une embase sensiblement plane munie d'un fût taraudé qui s'étend orthogonalement depuis une face de l'embase et communique avec un orifice ménagé dans cette embase, caractérisé en ce que l'embase comporte deux côtés opposés et repliés suivant une même direction du côté de la face d'embase comportant le fût taraudé, ces deux côtés opposés repliés s'étendant orthogonalement à la partie restante de l'embase et parallèlement au fût taraudé, et comportant chacun une languette découpée permettant le montage de l'écrou par clippage sur un élément quelconque tel qu'un panneau. To this end, the subject of the invention is a nut with a tapped barrel of the type comprising a substantially flat base provided with a tapped barrel which extends orthogonally from one face of the base and communicates with an orifice formed in this base, characterized in that the base has two opposite sides and folded in the same direction on the side of the base face comprising the threaded barrel, these two opposite folded sides extending orthogonally to the remaining part of the base and parallel to the was tapped, and each having a cut tab allowing the mounting of the nut by clipping on any element such as a panel.

On précisera encore ici que les deux côtés repliés précités de l'embase pénètrent dans des trous prévus dans l'élément et les languettes s'accrochent sur des épaulements prévus dans ces trous qui sont situés de part et d'autre d'un autre trou recevant le fût taraudé. It will also be specified here that the two aforementioned folded sides of the base penetrate into holes provided in the element and the tabs hang on shoulders provided in these holes which are located on either side of another hole. receiving the tapped barrel.

Mais d'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparatront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple, et dans lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'un écrou à fût taraudé conforme à cette invention, et prêt à être monté par clippage sur un panneau ou analogue illustré partiellement ; et
- la figure 2 est une vue en coupe de cet écrou passant par le fût taraudé, et montrant l'écrou en position montée sur le panneau.
However, other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the appended drawings, given solely by way of example, and in which
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a threaded barrel nut according to this invention, and ready to be mounted by clipping on a panel or the like partially illustrated; and
- Figure 2 is a sectional view of this nut passing through the threaded barrel, and showing the nut in the mounted position on the panel.

En se reportant aux figures, on voit en 1 un écrou à fût taraudé comprenant une embase 2 munie d'un fût taraudé 3 qui s 'étend orthogonalement à l'embase 2 et depuis une face de cette embase. Referring to the figures, we see at 1 a threaded barrel nut comprising a base 2 provided with a threaded barrel 3 which extends orthogonally to the base 2 and from one face of this base.

Le fût taraudé 3 communique avec un orifice Lt percé dans l'embase 2. The threaded barrel 3 communicates with an orifice Lt drilled in the base 2.

Conformément à l'invention, et suivant exemple de réalisation représenté, l'embase 2 comporte deux côtés opposés 5 qui sont repliés suivant une même direction du côté de la face d'embase comportant le fût taraudé 3. According to the invention, and according to the example of embodiment shown, the base 2 has two opposite sides 5 which are folded in the same direction on the side of the base face comprising the threaded barrel 3.

Les deux côtés opposés 5 sont repliés de façon à s'étendre perpendiculairement à la partie restante de
I'embase 2 et s'étendent par conséquent parallèlement au fût taraudé 3.
The two opposite sides 5 are folded so as to extend perpendicular to the remaining part of
The base 2 and therefore extend parallel to the threaded barrel 3.

Chaque côté replié 5 de l'embase 2 comporte une languette découpée 6 qui, suivant l'exemple de réalisation représenté est elle-même repliée vers l'extérieur du U formé par l'embase 2 et ses côtés repliés 5, mais qui pourrait parfaitement, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, être repliée vers l'intérieur de ce U. Each folded side 5 of the base 2 has a cut tab 6 which, according to the embodiment shown is itself folded outwards from the U formed by the base 2 and its folded sides 5, but which could perfectly , without departing from the scope of the invention, be folded towards the inside of this U.

On voit clairement sur les figures 1 et 2 un élément, tel qu'un panneau P sur lequel peut être monté par clippage l'écrou à fût taraudé i, ce panneau P comportant un trou 7 destiné à rececoir le fût taraudé 3, et de part et d'autre de ce trou 7, deux autres trous 8 destinés à rececoir les côtés repliés 5 de l'embase 2 de l'écrou 1. Clearly seen in Figures 1 and 2 an element, such as a panel P on which can be mounted by clipping the nut with tapped barrel i, this panel P having a hole 7 intended to receive the tapped barrel 3, and on either side of this hole 7, two other holes 8 intended to receive the folded sides 5 of the base 2 of the nut 1.

Les trous 8 sont de préférence pourvus d'épaulements ou analogues 9 sur lesquels peuvent s'accrocher les languettes 6 appartenant aux côtés opposés et repliés 5 de l'embase 2. The holes 8 are preferably provided with shoulders or the like 9 on which the tongues 6 belonging to the opposite and folded sides 5 of the base 2 can be hooked.

On comprend donc de la description qui précède que l'écrou 1 à fût taraudé selon cette invention peut être monté par clippage, et ce par simple poussée, sur le panneau P qui le supportera. It is therefore understood from the foregoing description that the nut 1 with a tapped barrel according to this invention can be mounted by clipping, and this by a simple push, on the panel P which will support it.

Plus précisément, le fût taraudé 3 et les côtés opposés 5 de l'embase 2 seront présentés en face des trous 7 et 8 respectivement du panneau P, et en exerçant avec les doigts une poussée sur l'embase 2, les languettes 6 franchiront par déformation la partie formant épaulement 9 pour venir ensuite s'accrocher sur ledit épaulement, comme on le voit bien sur la figure 2, de sorte que l'écrou 1 sera ainsi retenu sur le panneau-support P. More precisely, the threaded barrel 3 and the opposite sides 5 of the base 2 will be presented opposite the holes 7 and 8 respectively of the panel P, and by exerting with the fingers a push on the base 2, the tongues 6 will pass through deformation of the shoulder part 9 and then hooking onto said shoulder, as can be seen in FIG. 2, so that the nut 1 will thus be retained on the support panel P.

L'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a eté donné qu'à titre d'exemple. The invention is in no way limited to the embodiment described and illustrated, which has been given only by way of example.

C'est ainsi que les languettes 6 pourront avoir une forme quelconque et être en un nombre quelconque, de même que l'épaulement 9 pourra être conformé d'une manière appropriée quelconque, étant entendu qu'un tel épaulement peut ne pas être nécessaire dans le cas par exemple où la matière du panneau P serait tendre et constituée par du bois ou du plastique. Thus, the tongues 6 may have any shape and be in any number, just as the shoulder 9 may be shaped in any suitable manner, it being understood that such a shoulder may not be necessary in the case for example where the material of the panel P would be soft and constituted by wood or plastic.

C'est dire que l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci sont effectuées suivant son esprit.  This means that the invention includes all the technical equivalents of the means described as well as their combinations if they are carried out according to the spirit.
