Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de convoyage d'objets tels que, notamment, bouteilles, flacons ou autres. The present invention relates to a device for conveying objects such as, in particular, bottles, flasks or the like.
Toutefois, bien que plus particulièrement prévue pour de telles applications, elle pourra également être destinée, de manière générale, à tout objet présentant une extrémité munie d'une excroissance. However, although more particularly intended for such applications, it may also be intended, in general, for any object having an end provided with a protuberance.
Actuellement, dans le domaine du convoyage, il est connu de transporter les bouteilles par soufflage d'un flux d'air sur une ou plusieurs parties de leur surface et d'assurer ainsi leur déplacement selon une direction donnée. Currently, in the field of conveying, it is known to transport the bottles by blowing an air flow over one or more parts of their surface and thus ensuring their movement in a given direction.
D'après un mode de réalisation préférentiel de ce procédé, lesdites bouteilles sont propulsées par un jet d'air agissant au niveau de leur goulot. According to a preferred embodiment of this process, said bottles are propelled by an air jet acting at their neck.
Les dispositifs correspondant comprennent généralement une chambre de soufflage et un rail support. La chambre de soufflage est alimentée par des ventilateurs et permet de comprimer l'air introduit, ce dernier étant ensuite projeté en direction du goulot des bouteilles par l'intermédiaire de fentes, prévues à la surface de ladite chambre de soufflage. The corresponding devices generally include a blowing chamber and a support rail. The blowing chamber is supplied by fans and makes it possible to compress the air introduced, the latter then being projected towards the neck of the bottles by means of slots, provided on the surface of said blowing chamber.
La structure desdites fentes permet d'orienter le flux d'air projeté et d'assurer ainsi le transport des bouteilles selon la direction souhaitée. The structure of said slots makes it possible to orient the projected air flow and thus ensure the transport of the bottles in the desired direction.
Le rail support coopère avec une excroissance prévue au niveau du goulot des bouteilles convoyées et participe à leur guidage. II est généralement assujetti à la face inférieure de la chambre de soufflage, aussi appelée tablier. The support rail cooperates with a protrusion provided at the neck of the conveyed bottles and participates in their guidance. It is generally subject to the underside of the blowing chamber, also called an apron.
Afin d'améliorer le guidage des bouteilles, les dispositifs décrits ci-dessus comportent habituellement, en outre, des guides latéraux, en vis-àvis de la trajectoire du corps desdites bouteilles. Dans la plupart des installations connues, ils sont assujettis au tablier. In order to improve the guidance of the bottles, the devices described above usually additionally comprise lateral guides, facing the trajectory of the body of said bottles. In most known installations, they are subject to the apron.
Afin d'être efficaces, il est à noter que lesdits guides latéraux nécessitent le plus souvent un réglage fin et minutieux, adapté à chaque profil de bouteille transportée. In order to be effective, it should be noted that said lateral guides most often require a fine and meticulous adjustment, adapted to each profile of the bottle transported.
Bien que ces procédés de convoyage constituent une solution offrant de nombreux avantages pour le transfert de bouteilles, les dispositifs actuellement connus présentent toutefois des inconvénients. En effet, leur chambre de soufflage est monobloc et n'est donc pas facilement accessible. Although these conveying methods constitute a solution offering numerous advantages for the transfer of bottles, the devices currently known however have drawbacks. Indeed, their blowing chamber is in one piece and is therefore not easily accessible.
En conséquence, elle ne peut pas être facilement ni rapidement nettoyée alors que dans les domaines où lesdits dispositifs sont employés, à savoir notamment l'industrie agro-alimentaire, les exigences en matière d'hygiène sont de plus en plus élevées. Consequently, it cannot be easily or quickly cleaned while in the fields where said devices are used, namely in particular the food industry, the requirements in terms of hygiene are increasingly high.
Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif de convoyage d'objets présentant une excroissance au niveau de leur goulot, comprenant une chambre de soufflage, qui pallie les inconvénients précités et dont ladite chambre de soufflage soit facilement accessible notamment afin de simplifier son nettoyage. The object of the present invention is to provide a device for conveying objects having a protuberance at their neck, comprising a blowing chamber, which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks and of which said blowing chamber is easily accessible in particular in order to simplify its cleaning.
Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif de convoyage d'objets présentant une excroissance au niveau de leur goulot, comprenant une chambre de soufflage et des guides latéraux des objets transportés, qui permette de nettoyer ladite chambre de soufflage sans altérer le réglage desdits guides latéraux et engendrer des gains de temps d'entretien. Another object of the present invention is to provide a device for conveying objects having a protuberance at their neck, comprising a blowing chamber and lateral guides of the transported objects, which makes it possible to clean said blowing chamber without altering the adjustment of said lateral guides and generate maintenance time savings.
Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif de convoyage qui ne présente pas de zone qui puisse entraîner des rétentions de salissure. Another object of the present invention is to provide a conveying device which does not have an area which can cause dirt retention.
Un autre but de la présente invention est de proposer un dispositif de convoyage dont la robustesse soit améliorée. Another object of the present invention is to provide a conveying device whose robustness is improved.
Un avantage de la présente invention est d'être facilement modulable et de pouvoir s'intégrer sans difficulté dans une installation industrielle. An advantage of the present invention is to be easily modular and to be able to integrate without difficulty into an industrial installation.
Un autre avantage de la présente invention est de présenter un réglage simplifié. Another advantage of the present invention is to present a simplified adjustment.
D'autres buts et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui va suivre qui n'est donnée qu'à titre indicatif et qui n'a pas pour but de la limiter. Other objects and advantages of the present invention will appear during the description which follows which is given only for information and which is not intended to limit it.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de convoyage d'objets tels que, notamment, bouteilles, flacons ou autres, présentant une excroissance au niveau de leur goulot, comprenant une chambre de soufflage, permettant la projection d'un flux d'air apte à entraîner lesdits objets, et un rail support, coopérant avec lesdits objets au niveau de ladite excroissance, caractérisé par le fait que ladite chambre est constituée d'un corps et d'un tablier, amovible par rapport audit corps, ledit rail support étant assujetti audit tablier. The present invention relates to a device for conveying objects such as, in particular, bottles, flasks or the like, having a protuberance at their neck, comprising a blowing chamber, allowing the projection of an air flow capable of entraining said objects, and a support rail, cooperating with said objects at said protuberance, characterized in that said chamber consists of a body and an apron, removable relative to said body, said support rail being subject to said apron .
La présente invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description suivante, accompagnée de la figure en annexe qui illustre le profil transversal d'un exemple de réalisation d'un dispositif de convoyage d'objets conforme à l'invention. The present invention will be better understood on reading the following description, accompanied by the appended figure which illustrates the transverse profile of an exemplary embodiment of a device for conveying objects in accordance with the invention.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de convoyage d'objets tels que, notamment, bouteilles, flacons ou autres. The present invention relates to a device for conveying objects such as, in particular, bottles, flasks or the like.
Toutefois, bien que plus particulièrement prévue pour de telles applications, elle pourra également être destinée, de manière générale, à tout objet muni d'une extrémité présentant une excroissance. However, although more particularly intended for such applications, it may also be intended, in general, for any object provided with an end having a protuberance.
Comme représenté à la figure 1, le dispositif de convoyage conforme à l'invention permet de transporter des objets 1 présentant une excroissance 2, notamment annulaire, au niveau de leur goulot 3, par exemple selon une direction sensiblement orthogonale au plan de la figure. As shown in FIG. 1, the conveying device according to the invention makes it possible to transport objects 1 having a protuberance 2, in particular annular, at their neck 3, for example in a direction substantially orthogonal to the plane of the figure.
Pour cela, de manière connue, ledit dispositif comprend une chambre de soufflage 4, permettant la projection d'un flux d'air apte à entraîner lesdits objets 1, selon la direction de convoyage souhaitée. II comprend également un rail support 5, coopérant avec lesdits objets 1 au niveau de leur excroissance 2, ledit rail support 5 étant orienté selon ladite direction de convoyage. For this, in known manner, said device comprises a blowing chamber 4, allowing the projection of an air flow capable of driving said objects 1, according to the desired conveying direction. It also comprises a support rail 5, cooperating with said objects 1 at their protuberance 2, said support rail 5 being oriented in said conveying direction.
Grâce au dispositif conforme à l'invention, lesdits objets 1, dirigés sensiblement verticalement, sont ainsi transférés sous ladite chambre de soufflage 4, par exemple. d'une installation de mise en forme à une installation de remplissage. Thanks to the device according to the invention, said objects 1, directed substantially vertically, are thus transferred under said blowing chamber 4, for example. from a shaping plant to a filling plant.
Ladite chambre de soufflage 4 présente, notamment, au niveau de sa face inférieure un canal 6 muni de fentes, par exemple, sur ses parois latérales. Lesdites fentes non représentées sur la figure, sont aptes à permettre la projection dudit flux d'air en direction du goulot 3 des objets 1, ce dernier circulant dans ledit canal. Said blowing chamber 4 has, in particular, at its lower face a channel 6 provided with slots, for example, on its side walls. Said slots not shown in the figure, are capable of allowing the projection of said air flow towards the neck 3 of the objects 1, the latter circulating in said channel.
Ledit rail support 5 est constitué, notamment, de deux rampes supérieures 30, en plastique et/ou en acier inoxydable qui, avec le flux d'air orienté, permettent de guider lesdits objets 1 le long de leur trajet. Said support rail 5 consists, in particular, of two upper ramps 30, made of plastic and / or stainless steel which, with the air flow oriented, make it possible to guide said objects 1 along their path.
Selon l'invention, ladite chambre 4 est constituée d'un corps 7 et d'un tablier 8, amovible par rapport audit corps 7. Ledit rail support 5 est assujetti audit tablier 8, ce dernier définissant également, notamment, ledit canal 6. According to the invention, said chamber 4 consists of a body 7 and an apron 8, removable relative to said body 7. Said support rail 5 is secured to said apron 8, the latter also defining, in particular, said channel 6.
La chambre de soufflage 4 est ainsi facilement accessible, par démontage dudit tablier 8, et son nettoyage ainsi que l'évacuation des produits utilisés à cette fin sont simplifiés. The blowing chamber 4 is thus easily accessible, by dismantling said apron 8, and its cleaning and the removal of the products used for this purpose are simplified.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, le dispositif conforme à l'invention, comprend des traverses de soutien 9, solidaires dudit corps 7 notamment prévues à l'intérieur de ce dernier, ledit tablier 8 étant assujetti auxdites traverses 9 de manière amovible. II comprend également des moyens 10 pour assurer l'étanchéité de la liaison entre ledit tablier 8 et ledit corps 7. According to the illustrated embodiment, the device according to the invention comprises support crosspieces 9, integral with said body 7 in particular provided inside the latter, said apron 8 being subject to said crosspieces 9 in a removable manner. It also includes means 10 for sealing the connection between said deck 8 and said body 7.
Ladite chambre de soufflage 4 est prévue, par exemple, sensiblement quadrangulaire et ledit corps 7 est constitué, notamment, de deux flancs latéraux , 12, et d'un couvercle 13. Said blowing chamber 4 is provided, for example, substantially quadrangular and said body 7 consists, in particular, of two lateral sides, 12, and of a cover 13.
Lesdites traverses de soutien 9 s'étendent, par exemple, entre lesdits flancs latéraux 11, 12, et sont prévues régulièrement espacées le long de la chambre de soufflage 4, selon la direction de convoyage des objets 1. Said support crosspieces 9 extend, for example, between said lateral flanks 11, 12, and are provided regularly spaced along the blowing chamber 4, in the conveying direction of the objects 1.
Lesdits moyens 10 pour assurer l'étanchéité sont constitués, notamment, par deux longerons 14,15, prévus latéralement le long dudit corps 7 et solidaires de manière étanche avec ledit corps 7, et par des joints 16, prévus le long dudit tablier 8, aptes à coopérer avec lesdits longerons 14,15. Said means 10 for sealing are constituted, in particular, by two longitudinal members 14,15, provided laterally along said body 7 and integral in leaktight manner with said body 7, and by seals 16, provided along said deck 8, able to cooperate with said beams 14.15.
Ces derniers permettent ainsi d'assurer une liaison étanche entre ledit corps 7 et ledit tablier 8 et éviter toute déperdition d'air nuisible à la qualité du soufflage. The latter thus make it possible to ensure a sealed connection between said body 7 and said apron 8 and to avoid any loss of air detrimental to the quality of the blowing.
Lesdits longerons 14, 15, orientés selon la direction de convoyage, sont solidaires, par exemple, des flancs latéraux 11, 12 du corps 7 et sont prévus à l'extérieur de ce dernier. Quant aux joints 16, ils sont prévus sur les bords longitudinaux dudit tablier 8. Said beams 14, 15, oriented in the conveying direction, are secured, for example, to the lateral flanks 11, 12 of the body 7 and are provided outside of the latter. As for the seals 16, they are provided on the longitudinal edges of said deck 8.
Selon le mode particulier de réalisation illustré, lesdits longerons 14, 15 présentent au moins une gorge 17, apte à accueillir lesdits joints 16. Ledit corps 7 est pris en sandwich entre lesdits longerons 14, 15 et ladite traverse 9, prévus solidaires entre eux. According to the particular embodiment illustrated, said longitudinal members 14, 15 have at least one groove 17, capable of receiving said seals 16. Said body 7 is sandwiched between said longitudinal members 14, 15 and said cross member 9, provided integral with each other.
Afin de favoriser le guidage des objets 1, le dispositif conforme à l'invention comprend, en outre, par exemple, des guides latéraux 19, notamment constitués au moins d'une rampe de guidage 20, prévue le long dudit dispositif, en vis-à-vis du corps desdits objets 1 et des tiges support 31 de ladite rampe de guidage 20. La position transversale desdites rampes de guidage 20 est, par exemple, réglable selon la direction des flèches repérées 21 tandis que la position verticale desdites rampes 20 est, par exemple, réglable selon la direction des flèches repérées 22. In order to promote the guiding of objects 1, the device according to the invention further comprises, for example, lateral guides 19, in particular consisting of at least one guide ramp 20, provided along said device, facing with respect to the body of said objects 1 and to the support rods 31 of said guide ramp 20. The transverse position of said guide ramps 20 is, for example, adjustable in the direction of the arrows marked 21 while the vertical position of said ramps 20 is , for example, adjustable according to the direction of the arrows marked 22.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, lesdits guides latéraux 19 et ledit tablier 8 sont indépendants et permettent ainsi de pouvoir accéder, après démontage dudit tablier 8, à l'intérieur de la chambre de soufflage 4 sans risquer de dérégler lesdits guides latéraux 19, cela permettant un gain de temps lors de l'entretien. According to the illustrated embodiment, said lateral guides 19 and said apron 8 are independent and thus allow access, after dismantling of said apron 8, to the interior of the blowing chamber 4 without risking disrupting said lateral guides 19, this saving time during maintenance.
Pour cela, lesdits longerons 14, 15 sont, par exemple, aptes à supporter lesdits guides latéraux 19. A cette fin, ils sont munis, notamment, de logements 23 par l'intermédiaire desquels lesdits guides latéraux 19 sont assujettis auxdits longerons 14, 15 au niveau des extrémités supérieures des tiges support 31. For this, said beams 14, 15 are, for example, capable of supporting said lateral guides 19. To this end, they are provided, in particular, with housings 23 by means of which said lateral guides 19 are subject to said beams 14, 15 at the upper ends of the support rods 31.
Ainsi, lesdits longerons 14, 15 permettent, à la fois, d'assurer l'étanchéité entre le corps 7 et le tablier amovible 8, grâce auxdites gorges 17, ainsi que de supporter, notamment, lesdits guides latéraux 19, indépendamment dudit tablier amovible 8, grâce auxdits logements 23. Ils rendent, en outre, le dispositif conforme à l'invention plus modulaire. Thus, said beams 14, 15 allow, at the same time, to ensure the seal between the body 7 and the removable deck 8, thanks to said grooves 17, as well as to support, in particular, said lateral guides 19, independently of said removable deck 8, thanks to said housings 23. They also make the device according to the invention more modular.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, lesdits longerons 14, 15 sont de section sensiblement quadrangulaire et la ou les gorges 17 sont prévues sur leur face latérale intérieure, c'est-à-dire celles se trouvant en vis-àvis de la trajectoire des objets 1. According to the illustrated embodiment, said longitudinal members 14, 15 are of substantially quadrangular section and the groove or grooves 17 are provided on their inner lateral face, that is to say those located opposite the trajectory of objects 1.
Quant aux logements 23, ils sont situés, par exemple, sur leur face inférieure. As for the housings 23, they are located, for example, on their underside.
Lesdits longerons 14, 15 présentent, en outre, notamment, un ou des logements secondaires 32, aptes à permettre le maintien du dispositif par le sol et/ou le plafond du local dans lequel il est installé. Ils peuvent également être munis, éventuellement, d'une rainure 33, apte à permettre l'encastrement d'éventuelles joues 36. Said beams 14, 15 also have, in particular, one or more secondary housings 32, capable of allowing the device to be held by the floor and / or the ceiling of the room in which it is installed. They may also be provided, optionally, with a groove 33, capable of allowing the embedding of any cheeks 36.
Lesdits logements secondaires 32 sont prévus, par exemple, sur la face latérale extérieure desdits logements 14, 15 tandis que lesdites rainures 33 sont situées sur leur côté inférieur. Said secondary housings 32 are provided, for example, on the external lateral face of said housings 14, 15 while said grooves 33 are situated on their lower side.
De plus, lesdits longerons 14, 15 et ladite traverse 9 sont assujettis les uns aux autres, notamment, par l'intermédiaire d'un système visécrou dans lequel la tête de la vis coopère avec au moins un troisième logement 34, prévu dans lesdits longerons 14, 15. In addition, said beams 14, 15 and said cross member 9 are subject to each other, in particular, by means of a screw-nut system in which the head of the screw cooperates with at least one third housing 34, provided in said beams. 14, 15.
Lesdits longerons 14, 15 sont constitués, par exemple , d'un profilé en aluminium présentant, notamment, une face supérieure incurvée de manière à éviter l'accumulation de salissures. Said beams 14, 15 consist, for example, of an aluminum profile having, in particular, a curved upper face so as to avoid the accumulation of dirt.
Selon le mode particulier de réalisation illustré, lesdites tiges support 31 et ladite rampe de guidage 20 coopère entre eux par articulation en rotation pour assurer le réglage de la position transversale de ladite rampe de guidage 20 par rapport auxdits objets 1, notamment en fonction de la section horizontale de ces derniers. According to the particular embodiment illustrated, said support rods 31 and said guide ramp 20 cooperate with one another by articulation in rotation to ensure the adjustment of the transverse position of said guide ramp 20 relative to said objects 1, in particular as a function of the horizontal section of these.
Plus précisément, lesdites tiges support 31 sont, par exemple, articulables en rotation autour d'axes sensiblement verticaux 40 et ladite rampe de guidage 20 est articulable en rotation par rapport à des axes 41, sensiblement verticaux, excentrés par rapport auxdits axes de rotation 40 des tiges 31 et assujettis auxdites tiges 31. More specifically, said support rods 31 are, for example, articulated in rotation about substantially vertical axes 40 and said guide ramp 20 is articulated in rotation relative to axes 41, substantially vertical, eccentric relative to said axes of rotation 40 rods 31 and subject to said rods 31.
Ainsi, selon le décalage angulaire choisi, I'extrémité distale de la rampe de guidage 20 est plus ou moins éloignée desdits objets 1 tandis que sa tige support 31 ou la partie de la tige support 31 se trouvant le long dudit axe de rotation 40 reste dans la même position. Thus, according to the angular offset chosen, the distal end of the guide ramp 20 is more or less distant from said objects 1 while its support rod 31 or the part of the support rod 31 lying along said axis of rotation 40 remains in the same position.
Un tel mouvement de rotation permet de simplifier le réglage desdits guides latéraux 19, notamment en cas de présence de joues 36. Such a rotational movement makes it possible to simplify the adjustment of said lateral guides 19, in particular in the presence of cheeks 36.
Selon le mode de réalisation illustré, ladite tige support 31 desdits guides latéraux 19 se présente, par exemple, sous la forme d'un U,
I'une des branches se trouvant le long dudit axe de rotation 40 et l'autre permettant d'assurer le positionnement vertical desdites rampes de guidage 20, articulées en rotation autour de ladite autre branche.According to the illustrated embodiment, said support rod 31 of said lateral guides 19 is, for example, in the form of a U,
One of the branches being along said axis of rotation 40 and the other making it possible to ensure the vertical positioning of said guide ramps 20, articulated in rotation around said other branch.
Cela étant, ledit tablier 8 est assujetti à ladite traverse 9, notamment, par l'intermédiaire d'au moins une vis 24 et, avantageusement, grâce à deux dites vis 24, décalées par rapport à l'axe de symétrie 25 des objets I convoyés, afin d'éviter. les chocs au niveau de la zone supérieure du goulot. Lesdites vis 24 sont prévues, notamment, au niveau du canal 6 dans lequel circule le goulot 3 desdits objets 1, prévu dans la partie médiane dudit tablier 8. However, said deck 8 is subject to said cross member 9, in particular, by means of at least one screw 24 and, advantageously, by means of two said screws 24, offset with respect to the axis of symmetry 25 of the objects I conveyed, in order to avoid. shocks at the upper neck area. Said screws 24 are provided, in particular, at the level of channel 6 in which the neck 3 of said objects 1 circulates, provided in the middle part of said apron 8.
II est à noter que la présente structure permet de renforcer la robustesse du dispositif et, notamment, d'éviter le déréglage des rampes supérieures 30 constituant le rail 5. It should be noted that the present structure makes it possible to reinforce the robustness of the device and, in particular, to avoid the adjustment of the upper ramps 30 constituting the rail 5.
En effet, lors du passage de trains de bouteilles, flacons ou autres, à grande vitesse, ceux-ci peuvent exercer de fortes contraintes sur les guides latéraux 19. Dans les dispositifs antérieurement connus, ces efforts sont directement reportés sur le tablier tandis que, selon l'invention, lesdits efforts sont repris par l'armature de soutien 9, au niveau de ses extrémités latérales, et ne portent donc pas sur ledit tablier 8, empêchant ainsi le déréglage des rampes supérieures 30. Indeed, when passing trains of bottles, flasks or the like, at high speed, these can exert strong stresses on the lateral guides 19. In the previously known devices, these forces are directly transferred to the bulkhead while, according to the invention, said forces are taken up by the support frame 9, at its lateral ends, and therefore do not bear on said deck 8, thus preventing the upper ramps 30 from being adjusted.
Par ailleurs, selon le mode particulier de réalisation illustré, le couvercle 13 dudit corps 7 est prévu, éventuellement, en U définissant ainsi une goulotte 26 entre lesdits flancs latéraux 11, 12 dudit corps 7. Cette dernière pourra permettre, notamment, de loger différents câbles électriques et/ou autres et être obturée à sa partie supérieure. Furthermore, according to the particular embodiment illustrated, the cover 13 of said body 7 is provided, optionally, in a U shape thus defining a chute 26 between said lateral flanks 11, 12 of said body 7. The latter may in particular be able to accommodate different electric cables and / or others and be closed at its upper part.
L'intérêt d'une telle disposition est qu'elle permet d'éviter d'utiliser une goulotte indépendante, située au-dessus et/ou à côté de la chambre de soufflage 4, et par suite de définir un interstice où pourraient s'accumuler des salissures. The advantage of such an arrangement is that it makes it possible to avoid using an independent chute, located above and / or next to the blowing chamber 4, and consequently to define an interstice where could accumulate soiling.
Lesdites traverses de soutien 9 sont constituées, par exemple, par la branche inférieure d'un arceau 27, éventuellement en deux parties, assujettie audit couvercle 13. Ledit arceau 27 longe, notamment, lesdits flancs latéraux 11, 12 du corps 7 et présente des points d'accrochage 35 avec ledit couvercle 13. Said support crosspieces 9 are constituted, for example, by the lower branch of a hoop 27, possibly in two parts, secured to said cover 13. Said hoop 27 runs, in particular, said lateral flanks 11, 12 of the body 7 and has attachment points 35 with said cover 13.
Lesdits points d'accrochage 35 pourront servir, en outre, éventuellement de points de maintien du dispositif au plafond du local dans lequel il est installé, notamment par l'intermédiaire de tiges non représentées sur la présente figure. Said attachment points 35 may also serve, optionally, as points for holding the device on the ceiling of the room in which it is installed, in particular by means of rods not shown in this figure.
L'invention permet ainsi de diminuer la visserie extérieure. The invention thus makes it possible to reduce the external screws.
Naturellement, d'autres mises en oeuvre, à la portée de l'homme de l'art, auraient pu être envisagées sans pour autant sortir du cadre de la présente demande. Naturally, other implementations, within the reach of those skilled in the art, could have been envisaged without departing from the scope of the present application.
