Abstract

A rail (1) is either glued to the side of a tape measure body or molded with it and is completed by a cover (2) with a longitudinal slot. The housing so formed is occupied by a reading cursor (3) which consists of a blade with one end turned at a right angle across the instrument scale and an indicator/stop attached to the other end and able to run in the longitudinal slot.

Description

La presente invention a pour objet un accessoire d'instrument de mesure. Elle concerne un curseur en métal ou en matière de synthèse à fixer sur un instrument de mesure du commerce, tel que mètres à enrouleur, décamètres à ruban etc... The present invention relates to a measuring instrument accessory. It relates to a slider made of metal or synthetic material to be fixed on a commercial measuring instrument, such as reel meters, tape measures etc ...

Ce curseur est destiné à permettre la lecture facile et précise, de distance qui sépare deux objets ou deux points. Cette invention peut être utilisée dans un nombre non limitatif d'applications, mais elle est particulièrement bien adaptée pour tous les professionnels et particuliers utilisant un mètre à ruban, ainsi que exemple pour effectuer des mesures rapides et efficaces lors du déroulement des jeux de boules, pétanques, jeu provençal, Actuellement les mesures faites à l'aide de différents instruments, plus ou moins compliqués ont toutes pour inconvénient d'être soit, difficiles à interpréter avec une lecture malaisée, soit d'employer un instrument onéreux. La présente invention a pour de supprimer ces inconvénients. This slider is intended to allow easy and precise reading, distance between two objects or two points. This invention can be used in a non-limiting number of applications, but it is particularly well suited for all professionals and individuals using a tape measure, as well as example for making quick and effective measurements during the course of bowling games, petanques, Provencal game, Currently the measurements made using different instruments, more or less complicated all have the disadvantage of being either difficult to interpret with a difficult reading, or to use an expensive instrument. The present invention has for removing these disadvantages.

Son mode de fonctionnement est le suivant Une fois le mètre à ruban déroulé entre les points à mesurer, il suffit de sortir le curseur à l'aide du bouton-poussoir jusqu'à son immobilisation dans le rail. Ensuite, on ramène le corps de l'instrument de mesure et son curseur bloque, à l'aplomb du point à mesurer et on lit la graduation en regard de la pointe du curseur. Its mode of operation is the following Once the tape measure unrolled between the points to be measured, it is enough to leave the cursor with the push-button until its immobilization in the rail. Then, bring the body of the measuring instrument and its slider blocked, directly above the point to be measured and read the graduation next to the tip of the cursor.

Cette invention atteint ces divers objectifs grâce à la simplicité de son concept, de sa fabrication, et de son utilisation. Sa fabrication peut être indépendante et le rail du curseur sera alors fixée sur l'instrument de mesure au moyen d'un adhésif double face, soit le rail sera collé ou incorporé ou moulé directement sur le boîtier de l'instrument de mesure.  This invention achieves these various objectives through the simplicity of its concept, its manufacture, and its use. Its manufacture can be independent and the cursor rail will then be fixed on the measuring instrument by means of a double-sided adhesive, either the rail will be glued or incorporated or molded directly on the housing of the measuring instrument.

Les caractéristiques de cette invention sont détaillées dans le descriptif suivant et illustrees par les dessins en annexes. The characteristics of this invention are detailed in the following description and illustrated by the appended drawings.

La conception de l'invention se présente en trois pièces la première pièce est un rail fabriqué en métal (acier ou aluminium) ou en matière de synthese (plastique, PVC...) dont la longueur minimale est de 3 cm et et la longueur maximale sera variable selon l'instrument sur lequel l'invention est fixée. Son épaisseur sera fonction de la matière utilisée et laissée à l'appréciation du fabricant. Son est de faire coulisser le curseur de lecture et de lui servir support. Un cran blocage du curseur est prévu dans le rail. La seconde pièce constitué par couvercle plat de mêmes dimensions et matières, destiné à maintenir le curseur dans le rail et mis en place après insertion du curseur lors la fabrication. La troisième pièce est constituée du curseur mobile à proprement parier et de son systeme de blocage éventuel. II s'agit d'une lamelle rigide fabriquée métal (acier aluminium) ou en matière de synthèse (plastique, PVC...) dont la longueur minimale est de 5,5 cm et et la longueur maximale sera proportionnelle à la longueur du rail dans lequel elle coulisse. L'extrémité gauche de cette lamelle est repliée à l'équerre (90 ) face à soi, sur une longueur de 1,5 cm et biseautée jusqu'à son extrémité. Son épaisseur sera également fonction de la matière utilisée et laissée à l'appréciation du fabricant. Moulé dans cette lamelle, à l'extrémité droite, un bouton poussoir est prévu afin de faire coulisser aisément cette dernière dans son rail, et permettre également l'arrêt de celle-ci dans le rail. The design of the invention is in three parts the first piece is a rail made of metal (steel or aluminum) or synthetic material (plastic, PVC ...) whose minimum length is 3 cm and the length maximum will vary according to the instrument on which the invention is Its thickness will depend on the material used and left to the discretion of the manufacturer. Its is to slide the playback slider and serve it support. A slider lock is provided in the rail. The second piece consists of flat cover of the same dimensions and materials, intended to hold the cursor in the rail and set up after inserting the cursor during manufacture. The third piece consists of the movable cursor to bet properly and its possible blocking system. It is a rigid lamella made of metal (aluminum steel) or synthetic material (plastic, PVC ...) whose minimum length is 5.5 cm and the maximum length will be proportional to the length of the rail in which she slides. The left end of this blade is folded to the square (90) facing you, over a length of 1.5 cm and beveled to its end. Its thickness will also depend on the material used and left to the discretion of the manufacturer. Molded in this slat, at the right end, a push button is provided to easily slide the latter in its rail, and also to stop it in the rail.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.

La figure 1 représente les vues de face, de gauche et de dessus de la pièce O, à savoir le rail et de la pièce , à savoir le couvercle. Figure 1 shows the front, left and top views of the part O, namely the rail and the part, namely the cover.

La figure 2 représente les vues de face, de gauche et de dessus de la pièce O, à savoir le curseur. Figure 2 shows the front, left and top views of the O part, namely the cursor.

La figure n 3 représente un exemple de l'appareillage en situation de lecture. Figure 3 shows an example of the equipment in reading situation.

En référence à ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un rail ( figurel pièce<B>(D</B>) fermé par un couvercle ( figure1 pièce Q) et dans lequel est inséré le curseur de lecture (figure 2 pièce O). L'ensemble du dispositif est collé sur le boitier de l'instrument de mesure pour une fabrication indépendante de l'instrument de mesure. Referring to these drawings, the device comprises a rail (figurel piece <B> (D </ B>) closed by a cover (Figure1 piece Q) and in which is inserted the reading cursor (Figure 2 piece O). The entire device is glued to the housing of the measuring instrument for independent manufacture of the measuring instrument.

Selon une variante non illustrée, le dispositif peut n'être constitué que du curseur (figure 2 pièce (1), et du couvercle (figure 1 pièce<B>(Z</B>), le rail étant moulé directement dans le boitier de l'instrument de mesure.According to a variant not shown, the device may consist only of the cursor (Figure 2 piece (1), and the cover (Figure 1 piece <B> (Z </ B>), the rail being molded directly into the housing of the measuring instrument.
