Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte à un dispositif de collecte en sortie d'un appareil d'entretien du gazon tel une tondeuse à gazon. The invention relates to a collection device at the outlet of a lawn care device such as a lawn mower.
Elle se rapporte également aux appareils d'entretien de gazon pourvus de ce dispositif tels les tondeuses à gazon. It also relates to lawn care devices provided with this device such as lawn mowers.
Pendant la tonte, pour collecter l'herbe, les tondeuses à gazon sont pourvues
- d'une part, d'un récipient collecteur et,
- d'autre part, d'un moyen d'acheminement des végétaux depuis les organes de coupe jusqu'au récipient collecteur.During mowing, to collect the grass, the lawn mowers are provided
- on the one hand, a collecting container and,
- On the other hand, a means of conveying the plants from the cutting members to the collecting container.
Pour la majorité des tondeuses, le moyen d'acheminement des végétaux est constitué par
- un conduit reliant le système de coupe au récipient collecteur et
- un système d'aspiration créant dans ce conduit un flux d'air entraînant l'herbe coupée vers le récipient collecteur.For the majority of mowers, the means of transporting plants consists of
- a conduit connecting the cutting system to the collecting container and
- a suction system creating in this duct an air flow entraining the cut grass towards the collecting container.
Ce moyen fonctionne correctement lorsque l'herbe est relativement sèche mais, dès que l'herbe est humide, l'herbe s'agglutine et le conduit s'obture partiellement voire se colmate. This method works correctly when the grass is relatively dry but, as soon as the grass is wet, the grass clumps up and the duct is partially blocked or even clogged.
La tonte des pelouses et le ramassage de l'herbe ne peuvent donc se faire sur sol humide et notamment tôt le matin en raison de la rosée couvrant alors le sol. Mowing the lawns and picking up the grass cannot therefore be done on wet ground and in particular early in the morning because of the dew then covering the ground.
Dans un tel cas, il faut tondre la pelouse sans ramasser l'herbe puis la ramasser ultérieurement avec un autre dispositif dédié au ramassage notamment à l'aide d'au moins une brosse. In such a case, the lawn must be mowed without picking up the grass and then picked up later with another device dedicated to picking up, in particular using at least one brush.
Au lieu d'un système d'aspiration, il est connu de loger dans le conduit, une vis sans fin (FR-A-2.174.859). Instead of a suction system, it is known to house in the conduit, a worm (FR-A-2,174,859).
L'introduction accidentelle de jouets, branches ou cailloux provoque malheùreusement assez souvent le blocage en rotation de cette vis sans fin voire sa détérioration. The accidental introduction of toys, branches or pebbles unfortunately quite often causes the rotational blocking of this worm or even its deterioration.
En plus de ces inconvénients, l'herbe est collectée dans un bac rigide qui doit être fréquemment transvasé dans un sac poubelle. In addition to these drawbacks, the grass is collected in a rigid container which must be frequently transferred to a garbage bag.
Pour supprimer cette opération de transvasement, il est connu (FR-A- 2.712.138) de placer un sac de collecte à usage unique directement en sortie du moyen d'acheminement. To eliminate this transfer operation, it is known (FR-A-2,712,138) to place a single-use collection bag directly at the outlet of the conveying means.
La mise en place du sac reste cependant une opération compliquée. Putting the bag in place remains a complicated operation, however.
Un des résultats que l'invention vise à obtenir est un dispositif du type cité plus haut qui remédie aux inconvénients précités. One of the results which the invention aims to obtain is a device of the type cited above which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de collecte de végétaux comprenant un moyen d'acheminement des végétaux depuis le système de coupe jusqu'au récipient collecteur, ce dispositif de collecte étant notamment caractérisé en ce que le moyen d'acheminement des végétaux est constitué par deux bandes transporteuses sans fin disposées sensiblement l'une au dessus de l'autre pour délimiter entre elles un canal au travers duquel sont acheminés les végétaux provenant notamment des organes de coupe. To this end, the subject of the invention is a device for collecting plants comprising a means of conveying the plants from the cutting system to the collecting container, this collecting device being in particular characterized in that the means of conveying plants consists of two endless conveyor belts arranged substantially one above the other to define between them a channel through which the plants are routed, in particular from the cutting members.
L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description ci-après faite à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin ci-annexé qui représente schématiquement
- figure 1 : en coupe partielle longitudinale, un appareil d'entretien du gazon,
- figure 2 : un sac de collecte.The invention will be better understood with the aid of the description below given by way of nonlimiting example with regard to the attached drawing which schematically represents
- Figure 1: in partial longitudinal section, a lawn care device,
- Figure 2: a collection bag.
En se reportant au dessin, on voit que la tondeuse 1 à gazon est équipée d'un dispositif 2 de collecte des végétaux. Referring to the drawing, it can be seen that the lawn mower 1 is equipped with a device 2 for collecting plants.
Classiquement, ce dispositif de collecte comprend un moyen 3 d'acheminement des végétaux depuis un système de coupe jusqu'à un récipient collecteur 4, tel un sac. Conventionally, this collection device comprises a means 3 for conveying the plants from a cutting system to a collecting container 4, such as a bag.
Par sac, on désigne un récipient à paroi souple aérée ou non. By bag, we mean a container with a ventilated flexible wall or not.
Les organes de coupe sont logés dans un carter supportant notamment le moteur électrique ou thermique. The cutting members are housed in a casing supporting in particular the electric or thermal engine.
Selon une caractéristique essentielle de l'invention, le moyen 3 d'acheminement des végétaux est constitué par deux bandes transporteuses 5, 6 sans fin disposées sensiblement l'une au dessus de l'autre pour délimiter entre elles un canal 7 au travers duquel sont acheminés et compactés les végétaux provenant notamment des organes de coupe. According to an essential characteristic of the invention, the means 3 for conveying the plants consists of two endless conveyor belts 5, 6 arranged substantially one above the other to delimit between them a channel 7 through which are routed and compacted plants, especially from the cutters.
Avantageusement, les bandes transporteuses 5, 6 se rapprochent localement l'une de l'autre et peuvent même venir localement en contact de manière à comprimer les végétaux et à améliorer ainsi le remplissage du récipient collecteur. Advantageously, the conveyor belts 5, 6 locally approach one another and can even come locally into contact so as to compress the plants and thus improve the filling of the collecting container.
De préférence, le canal 7 défini par les deux brins 5A, 6A menants des bandes transporteuses a une section progressivement décroissante depuis l'entrée des végétaux jusqu'à la zone de contact mutuel de ses brins menants. Preferably, the channel 7 defined by the two strands 5A, 6A leading the conveyor belts has a progressively decreasing section from the entry of the plants to the zone of mutual contact of its leading strands.
L'un (9) des organes de renvoi 9, 10 de la bande transporteuse 6 située sous l'autre bande transporteuse 5 constitue pour cette dernière un tendeur. One (9) of the return members 9, 10 of the conveyor belt 6 located under the other conveyor belt 5 constitutes for the latter a tensioner.
La position de cet organe de renvoi permet d'infléchir la trajectoire T des végétaux de sorte que la première partie du déplacement des végétaux est ascendant tandis que la seconde partie T1 est sensiblement horizontale. The position of this deflection member makes it possible to inflect the trajectory T of the plants so that the first part of the movement of the plants is ascending while the second part T1 is substantially horizontal.
Ces dispositions permettent notamment de comprimer les végétaux avant de les introduire dans le récipient collecteur. These provisions allow in particular to compress the plants before introducing them into the collecting container.
I1 n'y pas de risques de blocage du moyen de transport mécanique lorsqu'accidentellement des pierres ou jouets sont entralnés dans le dispositif. There is no risk of blockage of the mechanical means of transport when stones or toys are accidentally entrained in the device.
De préférence, le moyen d'acheminement des végétaux se situe dans un plan médian à l'axe longitudinal de la tondeuse. Preferably, the means for conveying the plants is situated in a median plane at the longitudinal axis of the mower.
De préférence, le moyen d'acheminement des végétaux est porté par une structure 11 amovible reliée à la tondeuse par une interface 12 présentant des moyens de reprise d'un mouvement moteur nécessaire à l'entraînement des bandes transporteuses 6. Preferably, the means for conveying the plants is carried by a removable structure 11 connected to the mower by an interface 12 having means for resuming a motor movement necessary for driving the conveyor belts 6.
Selon une autre caractéristique, le moyen d'acheminement des végétaux comprend, en sortie du canal d'acheminement défini par les bandes transporteuses, un court manchon 13 dont
- l'extrémité 13Awtournée vers le canal est localement conformée pour sensiblement tangenter les organes de renvoi des bandes transporteuses et
- l'autre extrémité 13B du manchon reçoit un sac 4 à usage unique enfilé sur le dit manchon. According to another characteristic, the means for conveying the plants comprises, at the outlet from the conveying channel defined by the conveyor belts, a short sleeve 13 of which
the end 13Awtournée towards the channel is locally shaped to substantially tangent the return members of the conveyor belts and
- The other end 13B of the sleeve receives a single-use bag 4 threaded onto said sleeve.
De préférence, l'ouverture 14 du sac à usage unique est délimitée dans une plaque 15 sensiblement rigide. Preferably, the opening 14 of the disposable bag is delimited in a substantially rigid plate 15.
Cette plaque rigide présente des moyens 16 pour la suspendre sur au moins une broche 17 que présente la structure portant les moyens d'acheminement. This rigid plate has means 16 for suspending it on at least one pin 17 which has the structure carrying the conveying means.
Avantageusement, est prévu un dispositif de remplacement automatique d'un sac plein par un sac vide par action sur un levier 18. Advantageously, a device is provided for automatically replacing a full bag with an empty bag by acting on a lever 18.
Par exemple, le levier actionne les broches soutenant les sacs préalablement engagés sur les broches et les broches en s'escamotant partiellement suppriment le soutien du sac plein qui tombe. For example, the lever actuates the pins supporting the bags previously engaged on the pins and the pins by partially retracting remove the support of the full bag which falls.
Le retour des broches dans leur position originale permet de repositionner automatiquement un autre sac sur le manchon. Returning the pins to their original position allows another bag to be automatically repositioned on the sleeve.
