Abstract

The manual control for the front wheels of a shopping trolley is composed of an assembly of rods and tubes (2/6,3/6,4/6,5/6,6/6). These are welded onto the trolley and connect the front wheels to the control handles positioned near the basket handle. There are right and left control handles and two vertical control transmission rods protected by a tube. There are two horizontal rods with a junction mechanism between them and the vertical rods. A front tube allows coupling turning of the front wheels.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de commander manuellement les roues avant d'un panier de sortie, tel qu'on en trouve dans les supers et hypermarchés;
Actuellement, les paniers de sortie existants ne sont équipés d'aucune commande, Les quatre roues sont libres avec un pivotement de 360 degrés.
The present invention relates to a device for manually controlling the front wheels of an outlet basket, as found in supers and hypermarkets;
Currently, the existing exit baskets are not equipped with any control. The four wheels are free with a 360 degree swivel.

Les inconvénients du système actuel sont les suivants:
Le panier de sortie, méme à vide, ne se dirige pas facilement, particulièrement dans les zones en pente (exemple du parking d'un hypermarché jusqu'à lentrée dans le magasin où les pentes sont évidentes, notamment pour lécoulement des eaux pluviales).
The disadvantages of the current system are as follows:
The outlet basket, even when empty, does not move easily, particularly in sloping areas (example of the parking lot of a hypermarket until the entrance to the store where the slopes are obvious, especially for the drainage of rainwater).

Un panier de sortie, chargé à 50, voire 100 kilogrammes, devient indirigeable, particulièrement pour les femmes seules; et les personnes âgées. D'où les risques de heurter les gondoles du magasin, d'autres usagers, ou les voitures en stationnement sur le parking. An outlet basket, loaded at 50 or even 100 kilograms, becomes indestructible, particularly for single women; and the elderly. Hence the risk of hitting the store gondolas, other users, or cars parked in the parking lot.

Le dispositif selon l'invention, permet dé remédier à ces inconvénients. If comporte un système dé commandé manuelle des roues avant du panier dé sortie, pour lorientation précise dé celui- ci à droite ou à gauche. The device according to the invention overcomes these drawbacks. If has a manual control system for the front wheels of the outlet basket, for precise orientation of the basket to the right or left.

Un ensemble de tringleries et tubulures soudées sur le panier de sortie, permet de commander la rotation des roues avant jusqu'à un angle de 45 degrés. Les poignées de commande droite et gauche sont positionnées à proximité de la poignée existante du panier. A set of linkages and pipes welded to the outlet basket allows the front wheels to be rotated up to a 45 degree angle. The right and left control handles are positioned near the existing basket handle.

L'ensemble du dispositif est réalisé en acier gafvanisé, à lidentique des paniers de sortie actuels, et assemblé au panier par soudure. Il pourra également être réalisé en tout autre matériau de synthèse, notamment à base de plastique. The entire device is made of gafvanized steel, identical to current outlet baskets, and assembled to the basket by welding. It can also be made of any other synthetic material, in particular based on plastic.

Ce dispositif permet, d'une part, de démultiplier l'effort exercé par l'utilisateur, d'autre part, de maîtriser fa trajectoire du panier dé sortie, même très chargé et sur terrain en pente
Dans un souci de sécurité, aucune partie du dispositif n'est en saillie de l'ossature du panier de sortie afin d'éviter les accidents, notamment les chocs dans les jambes d'autres usagers. Une tubulure protege les tiges verticales dé transmission dés commandés. Tubulure qui permet d'éviter qu'un enfant se coince un doigt lors du pivotement de ces tiges de commande.
This device makes it possible, on the one hand, to multiply the effort exerted by the user, on the other hand, to control the trajectory of the outlet basket, even when very loaded and on sloping ground
For the sake of safety, no part of the device projects from the frame of the outlet basket in order to avoid accidents, in particular shocks to the legs of other users. A tubing protects the vertical rods of transmission dice ordered. Tubing which prevents a child from getting a finger trapped during the pivoting of these control rods.

Les dessins annexes illustrent l'invention:
La planche 1/6 représente en perspective un panier de sortie classique équipé du dispositif selon l'invention, silhouette en noir. Elle permet également le repérage des six autres figures jointes pour la compréhension des assemblages et du fonctionnement du dispositif.
The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:
Plate 1/6 shows in perspective a classic outlet basket equipped with the device according to the invention, silhouette in black. It also allows the location of the six other attached figures for understanding the assemblies and the operation of the device.

La planche 2/6 représente en perspective et élévations (vues suivant A et B), la poignée de commandé gauche dés roues avant du panier de sortie. Plate 2/6 shows in perspective and elevations (views along A and B), the left control handle of the front wheels of the output basket.

La planche 3/6 représente en élévations et coupes la tige verticale de transmission des commandes protégée par une tubulure. Elle est complétée par deux croquis perspectifs qui localisent les jonctions fiautes et 6asses avec cette tige de transmission.  Plate 3/6 shows in elevations and sections the vertical rod for transmitting commands protected by a tube. It is completed by two perspective sketches which locate the fiaute and 6asse junctions with this transmission rod.

La planche 4/6 représente en élévations et plan, le mécanisme de jonction des tiges verticales et horizontales du dispositif. Un croquis perspectif permet la localisation des différentes vues
La planche 5/6 représente en plans et en coupes les tringleries frontales et latérales du dispositif. Elle est complétée par un croquis perspectif qui permet la localisation des différentes vues.
Plate 4/6 shows in elevations and plan, the junction mechanism of the vertical and horizontal rods of the device. A perspective sketch allows the location of the different views
Plate 5/6 shows in plan and in sections the front and side linkages of the device. It is completed by a perspective sketch which allows the localization of the different views.

La planche 6/6 représente en élévations et plan, té modé d'assemblage dé fa tringlerie permettant la rotation commandée des roues avant (à 45 ) du panier de sortie. Un croquis perspectif permet la localisation des vues.  Plate 6/6 shows in elevations and plan, a moderate assembly of linkage allowing controlled rotation of the front wheels (at 45) of the output basket. A perspective sketch allows the location of the views.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un ensemble d'éléments soudés sur le panier dé sortie, soit:
Deux poignées de commande (fig. 2-3-4-5) qui sont l'aboutissement des tiges verticales de transmission des commandes (fig. 6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13) protégées par une tubulure.
With reference to these drawings, the device comprises a set of elements welded to the outlet basket, namely:
Two control handles (fig. 2-3-4-5) which are the culmination of the vertical control transmission rods (fig. 6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13) protected by a tubing .

Deux tubes horizontaux (fig. 19-20) assemblés aux tiges verticales par rivets et goupilles (fig. 15-16-17). Two horizontal tubes (fig. 19-20) assembled to the vertical rods by rivets and pins (fig. 15-16-17).

Un tube frontal (fig. 22-23-24) permettant le couplage des roues avant du panier dans leur pivotement. A front tube (fig. 22-23-24) allowing the coupling of the front wheels of the basket in their pivoting.

Un mécanisme de commande des roues avant du panier (fig. 25-26-27) assemblé aux tubes horizontaux (planche 3/6) par rivets et goupilles. A mechanism for controlling the front wheels of the basket (fig. 25-26-27) assembled to the horizontal tubes (plate 3/6) by rivets and pins.

Le dispositif, selon l'invention, est partticulièrement destiné à la commande manuelle des roues avant de paniers dé sortie, et pourra être intégré à leur fabrication ou adapté aux produits existants, en métal ou tout autre matériau de synthèse.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for manual control of the front wheels of outlet baskets, and may be integrated into their manufacture or adapted to existing products, made of metal or any other synthetic material.
