Description

<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour ramasser les sarments (andaineur) équipé de hêtres orientables montées sur rotules.  The present invention relates to a device for picking branches (swather) equipped with adjustable beech trees mounted on ball joints.

Traditionnellement les bras d'andaineur sont équipés de têtes fixes, ou parfois de têtes orientables grâce à l'utilisation de noix crantées.  Traditionally the rake arms are fitted with fixed heads, or sometimes with adjustable heads thanks to the use of notched nuts.

Les têtes fixes ont l'inconvénient d'être trop rigides et de man-

Figure img00010001

quer de souplesse sur les sols irréguliers. En ce qui concerne l'utilisation des noix crantées pour le montage des tetes andaineuses, le réglage manque de précision et de stabilité. Fixed heads have the disadvantage of being too rigid and
Figure img00010001

quer flexibility on uneven floors. Regarding the use of notched nuts for mounting swath heads, the setting lacks precision and stability.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces incon- vénients. Il comporte en effet selon une première caractéristique une rotule usinée et soudée au support moteur. Ce dernier possède une encoche de sorte à recevoir la partie axiale de la rotule. La deuxième partie extrime de la rotule est aplanie, soit une autre caractéristique de cette rotule. La dite rotule est insérée entre deux brides percées et taraudées de sorte à assurer un mouvement rotatif complet. Une bride est fixée au bras de l'andaineur. La deuxième bride est mobile et se situe prisonnière entre la rotule et le support moteur. The device according to the invention makes it possible to remedy these drawbacks. According to a first characteristic, it in fact comprises a ball joint machined and welded to the motor support. The latter has a notch so as to receive the axial part of the ball joint. The second end part of the patella is flattened, which is another characteristic of this patella. Said ball joint is inserted between two drilled and tapped flanges so as to ensure complete rotary movement. A strap is attached to the arm of the swather. The second flange is movable and is trapped between the ball joint and the engine support.

Selon des modes particuliers de réalisation : - le support moteur est découpé de sorte à recevoir la partie axiale de l'axe rotule. Cette partie est soudée sur trois cotés de sorte à assurer une bonne solidité.

Figure img00010002
According to particular embodiments: - the engine support is cut so as to receive the axial part of the ball joint axis. This part is welded on three sides so as to ensure good solidity.

- la rotule est conçue spécialement pour cet usage. Une rotule de tracteur achetée dans le commerce de détail est complète et traitée en surface. Une rotule complète, ronde de toute part, a une moindre adhérance sur les brides et ne permet donc pas un blocage stable. De même que le traitement projeté sur les rotules que l'on trouve dans le commerce altère la solidité des soudures. La rotule proposée ici est usinée à partir d'un tube plein, réduit d'un coté afin d'être transformé en axe qui sera soudé dans l'encoche prévue à cet effet sur le support moteur. L'autre côté du tube est arrondi de sorte à former une rotule, ayant un rayon épousant les brides qui permettront le blocage. L'embout de la rotule est aplani par usinage, ce qui permet un blocage plus stable. - the ball joint is specially designed for this use. A tractor ball joint purchased from the retail trade is complete and surface treated. A complete ball joint, round on all sides, has less grip on the flanges and therefore does not allow stable blocking. In the same way as the treatment projected on the ball joints which one finds in the trade deteriorates the solidity of the welds. The ball joint proposed here is machined from a solid tube, reduced on one side in order to be transformed into an axis which will be welded in the notch provided for this purpose on the motor support. The other side of the tube is rounded so as to form a ball joint, having a radius matching the flanges which will allow blocking. The end of the ball joint is flattened by machining, which allows a more stable blocking.

- deux brides usinées permettent le serrage de l'axe rotulé au niveau de la rotule. Les brides possèdent trois perçages et sont chanfreinnée Une des deux bride est taraudée pour recevoir la boulonnerie de fixation. - two machined flanges allow the swiveling axis to be tightened at the level of the ball joint. The flanges have three holes and are chamfered. One of the two flanges is tapped to receive the fixing bolts.

- la bride mobile située entre la rotule et le support moteur permet l'ajustement par la rotule un millimètre près. Ce mouvement incline selon

- de part ce montage, la partie axe rotulé soudé au support moteur forme un bloc complet : moteur plus rotule orientable. Ce bloc est désolidarisé du corps principal de l'andaineur. Il est fixé à l'andaineur par trois boulons se trouvant sur les brides et permettant de règler l'inclinaison des tetes. Le démontage aisé de ce bloc présente un avantage majeur, il devient facile à manipuler et à transformer ; sur ce bloc, est fixé le support de balais permettant le ramassage des sarments. - thanks to this assembly, the swivel axis part welded to the motor support forms a complete block: motor plus swivel ball joint This block is separated from the main body of the rake. It is fixed to the swather by three bolts located on the flanges and allowing to adjust the inclination of the heads. The easy disassembly of this block has a major advantage, it becomes easy to handle and transform; on this block, is fixed the brush holder allowing the picking up of the branches.

Ce support de balais peut etre enlever aisément et remplacer par un autre mécanisme équipé d'une brosse rotative en fibre synthétique. This brush holder can be easily removed and replaced by another mechanism fitted with a rotary brush made of synthetic fiber.

Cette brosse par l'intermédiaire de la rotule va travailler en mouvement rotatif à l'horizon-- tale. Cette inclinaison va permettre aux brosses de nettoyer le cep de vigne et d'enlever les bourgeons. This brush by means of the ball joint will work in rotary movement on the horizontal. This inclination will allow the brushes to clean the vine stock and remove the buds.

Le système de rotule et de brides présenté ci-dessus permet à l'appareil de devenir polyvalent : andaineur et ébourgeonneuse. The ball joint and flange system presented above allows the machine to become versatile: swather and disbudger.

Ce dispositif monté ainsi avec cette rotule permet : un blocage puissant, une précision extrême dans l'orientation des têtes, le travail au sol est précis et s'adapte à la morphologie du sol. Il permet aussi une usure moindre des balais du fait de la bonne inclinaison.  This device mounted in this way with this ball joint allows: powerful blocking, extreme precision in the orientation of the heads, working on the ground is precise and adapts to the morphology of the soil. It also allows less wear of the brushes due to the good inclination.

Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention : la figure 1 représente le support moteur sur lequel vient se fixer l'axe rotulé. ta figure 2 représente l'axe usiné, transformé en axe rotulé qui se fixe sur le support moteur.  The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention: FIG. 1 represents the engine support on which the swivel pin is fixed. ta figure 2 represents the machined axis, transformed into a swivel axis which is fixed on the engine support.

La figure 3 représente la bride usinée, taraudée, percée en coupe et en face. Figure 3 shows the machined flange, tapped, pierced in section and opposite.

La figure 4 représente le shéma de montage de la rotule. Figure 4 shows the assembly diagram of the ball joint.

En référence à ces dessins, le support moteur présente un perçage central (1) qui est l'emplacement du moteur, et une encoche (2) au sein

Figure img00020001

de laquelle est soudé l'axe rotulé (fig 2). With reference to these drawings, the engine support has a central hole (1) which is the location of the engine, and a notch (2) within
Figure img00020001

from which the swivel pin is welded (fig 2).

L'axe rotulé est usiné de sorte qu'une extrémité (3) épouse parfaitement l'encoche du support moteur (2) où il est soudé. The swivel pin is machined so that one end (3) perfectly matches the notch of the motor support (2) where it is welded.

Une bride mobile (4) est insérée dans l'axe rotulé avant soudure sur le support moteur. La deuxième bride (5) est soudée et fixée au bras de l'andaineur. Après usinage, l'autre extrémité de l'axe forme une rotule (6) aplani en bout (7) pour une meilleure stabilité lors du serrage des brides. A movable flange (4) is inserted in the swivel axis before welding on the motor support. The second flange (5) is welded and fixed to the arm of the swather. After machining, the other end of the axis forms a ball joint (6) flattened at the end (7) for better stability when tightening the flanges.

Selon la figure 3, les trois perçages sur les brides (8) permettent l'as- According to Figure 3, the three holes on the flanges (8) allow the

semblage, la liaison entre le corps de l'appareil et la tête andaineuse, et le déblocage du système pour le réglage.  semblage, the connection between the body of the device and the swather head, and the release of the system for adjustment.

Le mécanisme global est donc constitué d'une bride soudée (5) au corps principal de l'andaineur sur laquelle vient se fixer par trois boulons (8) un dispositif m : um d'un axe rotule soudé (fig 2) à un support moteur (figl). Ce dernier dispositif emprisonne la deuxième bride totalement articulée (4). En désserant les 3 boulons, lorsque ces 2 parties sont réunies, et par l'intermédiaire de la rotule, on peut orienter au millimètre près, et dans tous les sens la tête de l'appareil.  The overall mechanism therefore consists of a welded flange (5) to the main body of the swather on which is fixed by three bolts (8) a device m: um of a ball joint axis welded (fig 2) to a support motor (figl). The latter device traps the second fully articulated flange (4). By loosening the 3 bolts, when these 2 parts are joined, and by means of the ball joint, you can orient the head of the device to the nearest millimeter, and in all directions.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est destiné à améliorer l'utilisation de l'andaineur notamment sur les terrains difficiles et à le doter d'une certaine polyvalence. The device according to the invention is intended to improve the use of the rake especially on difficult terrain and to provide it with a certain versatility.
