FR2735512A1 - STORAGE RACK BY STACKING COFFINS INSIDE TOMBS - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to a storage rack by stacking coffins inside tombs. The support according to the invention comprises at least two vertical gantries (1) joined together by transverse bracing means, said gantries being modular, mountable and removable at will, preferably on a flat base, a coffin which can be inserted under successive gantries or between them and one which can be carried on successive gantries or between them.

Description

The present invention relates to a storage rack by stacking

and / or juxtaposition of coffins with

the interior of tombs.

  Tombs usually consist of vertical walls with a slab of cover and a hatch of passage on the

front face.

  The bottom usually consists of a gravel hedgehog

  which allows the infiltration of runoff water into the soil.

  Some have a masonry background.

  Coffins are usually laid on each other

others from the bottom.

  As a result, they are not immune to moisture that

  generate a rapid deterioration thereof.

  It is known to seal support bars in

side walls.

  However, since these are fixed, they constitute a handicap to

the establishment of coffins.

  The dimensions of the tombs being standardized and reduced, it seemed useful to propose a device that both allows stacking storage coffins and avoids contact with runoff. For this purpose, the support according to the invention comprises at least two and preferably several, for example three vertical gantries spaced apart in parallel planes, said gantries being braced and being provided with means for securing additional complementary gantries and / or side, a coffin that can be inserted 1 under successive porticos and another that can be worn

  by the so-called porticos, so-called gates and counterfeits

  Definitely defining modules that are mountable, dismountable and combinable with each other in horizontal or vertical or longitudinal extension. According to another characteristic of the invention,

  the porticoes are fixed on a flat base.

  Other advantages and features of

  the invention will appear on reading the description below.

  after one embodiment of the invention given by way of non-limiting example and illustrated by the accompanying drawings in which: - Figure 1 is a perspective and exploded view of the combination of several support modules according to the invention,

  FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of the arrangement

  In accordance with the invention as shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 3 shows in perspective and in longitudinal section two embodiments of a tray.

  resting on the porticoes of the modules.

  FIG. 1 represents the combination of several coffin supports according to the invention in which a coffin support comprises at least two vertical gantries 1 arranged in parallel planes and braced by at least one and preferably two barriers 2 arranged longitudinally along the parallelogram rectangle defined by each of the modules constituted by the two

gantries and their bracing.

  Said module can be assembled and dismounted at will 1 and can be combined with other modules to realize

  horizontal or vertical or longitudinal extensions.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 3 denotes a basic module; reference 4 designates a vertical extension and reference 5 designates a horizontal extension of the support

according to the invention.

  Each of the gantries 1 consists of parallel vertical tubular legs 6 joined by a horizontal beam 7. Each of the gantries 1 is provided with means for fixing by interlocking or any other mechanical method, the first gantries or half gantries constituting the expansion modules 4/5, they can also be

combine them.

  For this purpose, each tubular leg 6, preferably of square section, is provided with an upper opening 8 forming a socket for the interlocking of a retreft cleat 9, a gantry complementary to the upper module. Said complementary gantry (ref.4) can also be provided with openings 8 on each of said legs and for the

same reason.

  Advantageously, at least one of the legs 6 of each gantry 1 is provided with a lateral sleeve 10 offset in the lower position to the top of the leg which can receive a vertical pin 11 of complementary shape of a half gantry (ref. horizontal extension. 1 The pin is made at the end of the beam of the half gantry. Each of the jambs 6 of a gantry or half gantry is provided with a vertical sleeve 12 on its inner face which will receive a rod 13 vertical barrier 2

bracing.

  Advantageously, each of the barriers comprises at least

minus two rods 12.

  Each half-gantry comprises a horizontal beam with a vertical pin 11 at one end and an opening 8 forming a sleeve at the top of its leg to receive a correspondingly sized retaining cleat of the jamb of an upper half gantry constituting a modular extension of the

support according to the invention.

  Each of the half gantries is provided on the inner faces of its jambs of sockets receiving a barrier 2 of bracing. The interlocking gantries and half gantries can

  be made in any known manner.

  Advantageously, the portals can be worn

by a flat base.

  Preferably, it is constituted for each gantry and / or half gantry or for each group of gantries and half portal gantries by a flat iron 14 profiled or not, which regularly spaced studs 15 of section corresponding to that of the legs and more small

  dimension to allow the nesting of said jambs.

  The base thus defined can be placed on

1 soles of distribution 16.

  Advantageously, on the modules can fit, along a longitudinal axis to allow the introduction, two

coffins one behind the other.

  The spacing between two successive gantries is

  such that the distribution of the load is balanced.

  In the embodiment, three gantries aligned on the same longitudinal axis support a coffin, another can be introduced under gantries or gantries can be placed on top of a coffin

resting on the flat legs.

  Advantageously, a lower spacer is

mounted at the base of the porticoes.

  This spacer arranged longitudinally consists of a rod 17 provided with rings 18 of section corresponding to that of the pads 15 and / or legs 6 of the gantries 1, either for threading on the pads, or for threading on

the jambs.

  The porticoes can also receive a support tray especially for the reception of small coffins. In Figure 3 are represented two forms of

production of a tray 19.

  In one embodiment, this plate consists of

  metal tubes 20 joined by sleepers 21.

  In another embodiment, this plate 19 consists of wooden planks 20 joined together by

sleepers 21.

  The advantage of the invention is that the mounting of the modules can be realized as and when required

  thus avoiding unnecessary congestion.
