Abstract
Description
"Charnière élastique sans vis apparente"
L'invention se rapporte à une charnière élastique sans vis apparente, plus particulièrement pour monture de lunettes. Elle concerne plus particulièrement un perfectionnement permettant d'obtenir deux positions, respectivement ouverte et fermée, particulièrement stables."Elastic hinge without visible screw"
The invention relates to an elastic hinge without visible screw, more particularly for spectacle frames. It relates more particularly to an improvement making it possible to obtain two positions, respectively open and closed, which are particularly stable.
La demande de brevet européen 0 430 756 appartenant à la Demanderesse décrit une charnière élastique pour monture de lunettes, comprenant deux éléments réunis élastiquement bout-à-bout par une pièce de liaison globalement en forme de tige. L'un des éléments est destiné à constituer au moins une partie d'une branche de monture de lunettes, tandis que l'autre est conformé en tenon destiné à être raccordé au face de la monture. La pièce de liaison comporte une extrémité élargie, typiquement une portion sphérique, par laquelle elle est articulée à l'un des éléments et elle se trouve logée essentiellement dans une cavité allongée, ouverte en bout, de l'autre élément. Cette cavité abrite également un ressort qui, par l'intermédiaire de la pièce de liaison, maintient les deux éléments de la charnière en contact avec possibilité d'articulation.Les surfaces d'articulation entre les deux éléments sont constituées par le bord carré ou rectangulaire d'une bague entourant la partie terminale du tenon et par le bord de l'ouverture de la cavité dans laquelle s'étend la pièce de liaison. Cette ouverture s'étend à la fois en bout et latéralement vers l'intérieur de la charnière. European patent application 0 430 756 belonging to the Applicant describes an elastic hinge for spectacle frame, comprising two elements joined elastically end-to-end by a generally rod-shaped connecting piece. One of the elements is intended to constitute at least part of an eyeglass frame branch, while the other is shaped like a stud intended to be connected to the face of the frame. The connecting piece has an enlarged end, typically a spherical portion, by which it is articulated to one of the elements and it is housed essentially in an elongated cavity, open at the end, of the other element. This cavity also houses a spring which, by means of the connecting piece, keeps the two elements of the hinge in contact with possibility of articulation. The articulation surfaces between the two elements are constituted by the square or rectangular edge a ring surrounding the terminal part of the post and by the edge of the opening of the cavity in which the connecting piece extends. This opening extends both at the end and laterally towards the inside of the hinge.
L'invention concerne principalement une modification importante des surfaces d'articulation telles que définies ci-dessus, dans un agencement de charnière élastique sans vis apparente. The invention relates mainly to a major modification of the articulation surfaces as defined above, in an elastic hinge arrangement without visible screw.
Dans cet esprit, l'invention concerne donc principalement une charnière élastique sans vis apparente, notamment pour une monture de lunettes, comprenant deux éléments réunis élastiquement bout-à-bout par une pièce de liaison globalement en forme de tige, un premier élément pourvu d'un évidement comprenant une cavité d'articulation sur laquelle prend appui une extrémité élargie de ladite pièce de liaison et une fente traversée par la partie en forme de tige de ladite pièce de liaison, un second élément comprenant une cavité allongée et ouverte en bout, abritant la plus grande partie de la pièce de liaison et un ressort placé autour de ladite pièce de liaison, monté avec contrainte initiale entre un organe de butée solidaire dudit second élément et une butée montée à l'extrémité interne de ladite pièce de liaison, les deux éléments comportant des surfaces d'articulation à des extrémités respectives, en contact, et des moyens limitant le déplacement relatif desdits deux éléments dans un plan, caractérisée en ce que la surface d'articulation de l'un des éléments s'inscrit dans un dièdre creux tandis que la surface d'articulation de l'autre élément s'inscrit dans deux dièdres saillants correspondant chacun audit dièdre creux et admettant un plan commun. In this spirit, the invention therefore mainly relates to an elastic hinge without visible screw, in particular for a spectacle frame, comprising two elements elastically joined end-to-end by a generally rod-shaped connecting piece, a first element provided with a recess comprising an articulation cavity on which bears an enlarged end of said connecting piece and a slot traversed by the rod-shaped part of said connecting piece, a second element comprising an elongated cavity and open at the end, housing most of the connecting piece and a spring placed around said connecting piece, mounted with initial stress between a stop member secured to said second element and a stop mounted at the internal end of said connecting piece, the two elements comprising articulation surfaces at respective ends, in contact, and means limiting the displacement relative nt of said two elements in a plane, characterized in that the articulation surface of one of the elements is inscribed in a hollow dihedron while the articulation surface of the other element is inscribed in two protruding dihedrons each corresponding to said hollow dihedral and admitting a common plane.
La surface d'articulation s'inscrivant dans un dièdre creux est de préférence celle dudit second élément constituant au moins en partie une branche de la monture. The articulation surface forming part of a hollow dihedral is preferably that of said second element constituting at least in part a branch of the frame.
Les deux plans définissant ce dièdre sont disposés de telle sorte que le plan médian du dièdre contienne un axe longitudinal de la cavité allongée abritant la pièce de liaison et le ressort. Par ailleurs, les deux dièdres saillants définis ci-dessus sont de préférence ceux dans lesquels s'inscrit la surface d'articulation dudit premier élément formant tenon. Ils sont approximativement perpendiculaires entre eux de façon à définir deux positions stables, ouverte et fermée, orthogonales entre elles, de la branche par rapport au tenon.The two planes defining this dihedral are arranged so that the median plane of the dihedral contains a longitudinal axis of the elongated cavity housing the connecting piece and the spring. Furthermore, the two projecting dihedrons defined above are preferably those in which the hinge surface of said first tenon element is inscribed. They are approximately perpendicular to each other so as to define two stable positions, open and closed, orthogonal to each other, of the branch relative to the post.
L'invention sera mieux comprise et d'autres avantages de celle-ci apparaîtront plus clairement à la lumière de la description qui va suivre d'un mode de réalisation plus particulièrement envisagé d'une charnière élastique conforme à son principe, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple et faite en référence aux dessins non limitatifs annexés dans lesquels:
- la figure 1 est une vue schématique partiellement en coupe longitudinale d'une charnière conforme à l'invention, avec ses deux éléments principaux dans une position stable l'un par rapport à l'autre;
- la figure 2 est une vue partielle analogue à la figure 1, illustrant les mêmes éléments dans une autre position stable;
- la figure 3 est une vue partielle en perspective éclatée des deux éléments de la charnière disjoints; et
- les figures 4 à 7 sont des vues schématiques illustrant l'assemblage des éléments de la charnière.The invention will be better understood and other advantages thereof will appear more clearly in the light of the description which follows of an embodiment more particularly envisaged of an elastic hinge conforming to its principle, given solely by way of example and made with reference to the accompanying non-limiting drawings in which:
- Figure 1 is a schematic view partially in longitudinal section of a hinge according to the invention, with its two main elements in a stable position relative to each other;
- Figure 2 is a partial view similar to Figure 1, illustrating the same elements in another stable position;
- Figure 3 is a partial exploded perspective view of the two disjoint hinge elements; and
- Figures 4 to 7 are schematic views illustrating the assembly of the elements of the hinge.
Sur les dessins, on a représenté une charnière élastique 11 sans vis apparente pour une monture de lunettes et essentiellement constituée de deux éléments 12, 13 élastiquement réunis bout-à-bout, sous l'action d'un ressort 23, par une pièce de liaison 15 globalement en forme de tige. Un premier élément 12 forme un tenon destiné à faire partie intégrante du face d'une monture de lunettes tandis qu'un second élément 13 constitue au moins une partie d'une branche de monture de lunettes. La pièce de liaison 15 comporte, une extrémité élargie 17, ici en forme de portion de sphère pour permettre une certaine articulation. In the drawings, there is shown an elastic hinge 11 without visible screw for a spectacle frame and essentially consisting of two elements 12, 13 elastically joined end-to-end, under the action of a spring 23, by a piece of connection 15 generally in the form of a rod. A first element 12 forms a stud intended to form an integral part of the face of a spectacle frame while a second element 13 constitutes at least part of a branch of spectacle frame. The connecting piece 15 has an enlarged end 17, here in the form of a portion of a sphere to allow a certain articulation.
Le premier élément 12 est pourvu d'un évidement 18 comprenant une cavité d'articulation 19a à surface sphérique, sur laquelle prend appui ladite extrémité élargie 17 de la pièce de liaison. Cet évidement comporte également une fente 19b traversée par la pièce de liaison. The first element 12 is provided with a recess 18 comprising a hinge cavity 19a with a spherical surface, on which said enlarged end 17 of the connecting piece bears. This recess also has a slot 19b through which the connecting piece passes.
Selon l'exemple, la portion cylindrique de la pièce de liaison qui traverse la fente 19b a un diamètre égal (à un jeu fonctionnel près) à la hauteur de la fente de sorte que cet agencement constitue des moyens pour limiter le déplacement relatif des deux éléments 12, 13 dans un plan qui est celui dans lequel s'opère le repliement de la branche de monture de lunettes. According to the example, the cylindrical portion of the connecting piece which passes through the slot 19b has a diameter equal (to within a functional clearance) to the height of the slot so that this arrangement constitutes means for limiting the relative displacement of the two elements 12, 13 in a plane which is that in which the folding of the spectacle frame branch takes place.
Le second élément comprend une cavité allongée 21 ouverte en bout, ici un simple alésage borgne; cette cavité abrite la plus grande partie de la pièce de liaison ainsi que le ressort 23 monté coaxialement autour de celle-ci, avec contrainte initiale et prenant appui entre un organe de butée 25 solidaire dudit second élément et une butée 26, ici en forme de cavalier, montée à l'extrémité de la pièce de liaison opposée à ladite extrémité élargie. The second element comprises an elongated cavity 21 open at the end, here a simple blind bore; this cavity houses most of the connecting piece as well as the spring 23 mounted coaxially around it, with initial stress and bearing between a stop member 25 secured to said second element and a stop 26, here in the form of jumper, mounted at the end of the connecting piece opposite to said enlarged end.
De plus, les deux éléments 12, 13 comportent des surfaces d'articulation 28, 30 agencées à des extrémités respectives, dont la coopération permet de définir deux positions stables, respectivement ouverte et fermée du second élément par rapport au premier. In addition, the two elements 12, 13 comprise articulation surfaces 28, 30 arranged at respective ends, the cooperation of which makes it possible to define two stable positions, respectively open and closed, of the second element with respect to the first.
Selon une caractéristique importante de l'invention, la surface d'articulation 30 de l'un des éléments s'inscrit dans un dièdre creux, tandis que la surface d'articulation 28 de l'autre élément s'inscrit dans deux dièdres saillants correspondant chacun audit dièdre creux et admettant un plan commun (P sur la figure 3). According to an important characteristic of the invention, the articulation surface 30 of one of the elements is inscribed in a hollow dihedron, while the articulation surface 28 of the other element is inscribed in two salient dihedrons corresponding each said hollow dihedral and admitting a common plane (P in FIG. 3).
Plus précisément, dans l'exemple représenté, c'est le second élément constituant la branche de monture de lunettes qui comporte une surface d'articulation s'inscrivant dans un dièdre creux tandis que c'est le premier élément formant tenon, qui comporte une surface d'articulation s'inscrivant dans deux dièdres saillants. More specifically, in the example shown, it is the second element constituting the spectacle frame branch which comprises an articulation surface forming part of a hollow dihedron while it is the first tenon element, which comprises a articulation surface forming part of two projecting dihedrons.
D'autre part, pour permettre le montage de la charnière, la cavité d'articulation 19a dudit premier élément se situe à l'extrémité d'un canal 31 (un simple perçage cylindrique) de forme et dimensions aptes à permettre l'introduction de la partie élargie de la pièce de liaison. Ce canal débouche vers l'avant du tenon. Bien entendu, la fente 19 communique latéralement avec le canal 31 pour le passage de la pièce de liaison. On the other hand, to allow the mounting of the hinge, the articulation cavity 19a of said first element is located at the end of a channel 31 (a simple cylindrical bore) of shape and dimensions suitable for allowing the introduction of the enlarged part of the connecting piece. This channel opens towards the front of the post. Of course, the slot 19 communicates laterally with the channel 31 for the passage of the connecting piece.
Par ailleurs, la fente 19 qui permet la rotation de ladite pièce de liaison se prolonge vers l'extérieur de l'articulation, au-delà de la position occupée par la pièce de liaison lorsque la branche de lunettes est en position ouverte (selon la figure 1). Le premier élément est pourvu extérieurement d'une surface 34 formant épaulement droit sur lequel vient prendre appui, dans cette position, une surface 35 de l'extrémité dudit second élément.Ainsi, bien que la position normale (figure 1) soit stabilisée par la conformation des éléments, il est clair qu'un effort tendant à accentuer le pivotement de la branche vers l'extérieur se traduit par un pivotement suppplémentaire de la pièce de liaison dans la fente, par une compression supplémentaire du ressort et par un arc-boutement des surfaces 34, 35 en butée, évitant une rupture de l'articulation et, notamment, de la pièce de liaison 15. Furthermore, the slot 19 which allows the rotation of said connecting piece extends towards the outside of the articulation, beyond the position occupied by the connecting piece when the spectacle arm is in the open position (depending on the figure 1). The first element is provided externally with a surface 34 forming a straight shoulder on which comes to bear, in this position, a surface 35 of the end of said second element. Thus, although the normal position (FIG. 1) is stabilized by the conformation of the elements, it is clear that an effort tending to accentuate the pivoting of the branch towards the outside results in an additional pivoting of the connecting piece in the slot, by an additional compression of the spring and by a bracing surfaces 34, 35 in abutment, preventing rupture of the articulation and, in particular, of the connecting piece 15.
De façon connue, l'organe de butée 25 a la forme d'un bobineau, dont le diamètre correspond à celui de la cavité 21, muni d'une gorge annulaire 38 et monté dans la cavité allongée dudit second élément avec possibilité de coulissement sur la pièce de liaison. Un élément de fixation 39 en forme de champignon est engagé au travers d'un trou 40 dudit second élément et fait saillie intérieurement dans la gorge annulaire 38 du bobineau. Cet élément de fixation forme une sorte de cheville et comporte une portion de diamètre réduit 41 normalement engagée dans le trou 40, c'est- -dire dans l'épaisseur de la paroi dudit second élément.Ce trou est d'un diamètre supérieur à celui de ladite portion de diamètre réduit de façon que l'action du ressort 23 sur le bobineau entraîne le verrouillage de l'élément de fixation et dudit bobineau comme cela est visible sur la figure 1, en décalant l'élément de fixation 39 par rapport au trou 40 dans lequel il est engagé. In known manner, the stop member 25 has the form of a coil, the diameter of which corresponds to that of the cavity 21, provided with an annular groove 38 and mounted in the elongated cavity of said second element with the possibility of sliding on the connecting piece. A mushroom-shaped fixing element 39 is engaged through a hole 40 in said second element and projects internally into the annular groove 38 of the spool. This fixing element forms a kind of dowel and has a reduced diameter portion 41 normally engaged in the hole 40, that is to say in the thickness of the wall of said second element. This hole is of a diameter greater than that of said portion of reduced diameter so that the action of the spring 23 on the spool causes the locking of the fastening element and of said spool as can be seen in FIG. 1, by shifting the fastening element 39 relative to to the hole 40 in which it is engaged.
Par ailleurs, un autre trou 42 est pratiqué dans la paroi dudit second élément et débouche dans la cavité allongée 21 à une certaine distance de son ouverture. Ce trou permet l'introduction d'un outil 45 (une simple tige) qui permet de faire ressortir une portion suffisante de la pièce de liaison 15 au moment de la mise en place de son extrémité élargie dans le premier élément 12. Les opérations de montage de la charnière sont d'ailleurs clairement explicitées en référence aux figures 4 à 7. Furthermore, another hole 42 is made in the wall of said second element and opens into the elongated cavity 21 at a certain distance from its opening. This hole allows the introduction of a tool 45 (a simple rod) which makes it possible to bring out a sufficient portion of the connecting piece 15 when placing its enlarged end in the first element 12. The operations of The mounting of the hinge is moreover clearly explained with reference to FIGS. 4 to 7.
On commence par mettre en place dans ledit second élément 13, le sous-ensemble comprenant la pièce de liaison 15, le ressort 23, la butée 26 et ledit organe de butée 25 en forme de bobineau. On fait correspondre la gorge 38 dudit bobineau avec le trou 40 et on y introduit l'élément de fixation 39 formant cheville. Puis, on immobilise provisoirement ledit second élément par un moyen de serrage 46 approprié et on tire vers l'extérieur ladite pièce de liaison, par exemple à l'aide d'une pince 47 adaptée, comme représenté sur la figure 5. Cette action a pour conséquence de comprimer le ressort et d'immobiliser le bobineau. On maintient le mécanisme dans cet état en introduisant l'outil de verrouillage 45 dans le trou 42. We start by installing in said second element 13, the sub-assembly comprising the connecting piece 15, the spring 23, the stop 26 and said stop member 25 in the form of a reel. The groove 38 of said spool is made to correspond with the hole 40 and the fixing element 39 forming an ankle is introduced therein. Then, said second element is temporarily immobilized by an appropriate clamping means 46 and said connecting piece is pulled outwards, for example using a suitable clamp 47, as shown in FIG. 5. This action has as a consequence of compressing the spring and immobilizing the reel. The mechanism is maintained in this state by inserting the locking tool 45 into the hole 42.
Il est alors possible de mettre en place l'extrémité élargie 13 de la pièce de liaison dans ladite cavité d'articulation 19a dudit premier élément 12. Le retrait de l'outil de verrouillage (figure 7) a alors pour conséquence de décomprimer légèrement le ressort 23 sans le détendre complètement de façon que celui-ci puisse d'une part maintenir l'organe de butée 25 en position stable et d'autre part assurer un contact élastique des surfaces d'articulation 28, 30 des deux éléments, dans l'une ou l'autre des positions stables prédéterminées. It is then possible to place the enlarged end 13 of the connecting piece in said articulation cavity 19a of said first element 12. The withdrawal of the locking tool (FIG. 7) then has the consequence of slightly decompressing the spring 23 without fully relaxing it so that it can on the one hand keep the stop member 25 in a stable position and on the other hand ensure elastic contact of the articulation surfaces 28, 30 of the two elements, in the either of the predetermined stable positions.
