Abstract
Description
<Desc/Clms Page number 1> <Desc / Clms Page number 1>
Les déplacements des piétons en milieu urbain s'effectuent généralement par une combinaison de trajets à pieds et de trajets en transports en commun. Pedestrian movements in urban areas are generally made by a combination of journeys on foot and journeys by public transport.
Une fraction, encore faible de cette population, correspondant à des personnes jeunes, à substitué aux phases de marche, l'utilisation d'engins roulants de petite taille, parfois pliants, permettant également l'usage des transports en commun lorsqu'ils présentent un avantage. A fraction, still small of this population, corresponding to young people, to substituted for the phases of walking, the use of small rolling machines, sometimes folding, also allowing the use of public transport when they have a advantage.
L'utilisation de ces engins, du type patinette, rollers, planches à roulette, demande un certain apprentissage et une bonne condition physique. De plus,
ils n'offrent pas la possibilité de supporter des objets plus ou moins lourds p i dont le port accroît la fatigue de la marche à pieds. The use of these machines, of the scooter type, roller skates, skateboards, requires a certain learning and a good physical condition. Moreover,
they do not offer the possibility of supporting more or less heavy objects pi whose port increases the fatigue of walking.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif destiné à faciliter les déplacements des piétons de tous âges en milieu urbain. Ce n'est donc pas un engin de sport. The present invention relates to a device intended to facilitate the movement of pedestrians of all ages in an urban environment. It is therefore not a sports device.
Son principe est de dissocier les efforts exigés par le soutien et le maintien en équilibre du corps de ceux destinés à son déplacement, ces efforts étant normalement confondus dans le fonctionnement de la marche et donc de marcher à grands pas avec le minimum de fatigue. Its principle is to dissociate the efforts required to support and keep the body in balance from those intended for its movement, these efforts being normally confused in the functioning of walking and therefore walking with great strides with the minimum of fatigue.
Une réalisation préférentielle mais non limitative du dispositif peut être décrite comme suit en se référant à la figure 1 : Un bâti métallique (1) qui peut être un assemblage ou venir directement de fonderie est supporté et mis en contact avec le sol par deux paires de roues (2), munies chacunes d'une articulation élastique permettant la transformation d'une inclinaison du bâti (1) par rapport à l'horizontale en une rotation des roues (2) autour d'un axe vertical et donc, lorsque le bâti (1) se déplace, une inflexion de sa trajectoire. Ces roues peuvent être considérées comme équivalentes à celles qui équipent les planches à roulettes aussi dénommées skate board. A preferred but non-limiting embodiment of the device can be described as follows with reference to Figure 1: A metal frame (1) which can be an assembly or come directly from the foundry is supported and brought into contact with the ground by two pairs of wheels (2), each provided with an elastic articulation allowing the transformation of an inclination of the frame (1) relative to the horizontal into a rotation of the wheels (2) about a vertical axis and therefore, when the frame (1) moves, an inflection of its trajectory. These wheels can be considered equivalent to those on skateboards also known as skateboards.
Toujours en se référant à la figure 1, ce bâti (1) supporte deux structures. Still referring to Figure 1, this frame (1) supports two structures.
L'une d'elles (3) se termine par une simple poignée (4) permettant une prise en main ferme et de préférence ergonomique. L'autre (5) se termine par un support (6) reçevant le poids du corps et qui peut être considéré comme équivalent à un siège. Ce support sera désigné ci-après sous le nom de selle, sans que cette désignation soit limitative au siège habituel des bicyclettes. One of them (3) ends with a simple handle (4) allowing a firm and preferably ergonomic grip. The other (5) ends with a support (6) receiving the body weight and which can be considered equivalent to a seat. This support will be designated below under the name of saddle, without this designation being limiting to the usual seat of bicycles.
Les hauteurs de la selle (6) et de la poignée (5) sont susceptibles d'être modifiés par l'intermédiaire de coulisseaux télescopiques verrouillables comparables aux systèmes utilisés pour régler les hauteurs du guidon et de la selle dans les bicyclettes. The heights of the saddle (6) and the handle (5) can be modified by means of locking telescopic slides comparable to the systems used to adjust the heights of the handlebars and the saddle in bicycles.

Selon une réalisation plus commode, dont la fonction est évoquée figure 2, les structures (3) et (5) sont articulées sur le bâti (1) afin de permettre leur repli par basculement afin de diminuer l'encombrement du dispositif lors de son transport ou lorsqu'il n'est pas utilisé, de même une articulation de la selle autour de son axe de fixation au bras peut permettre la diminution de hauteur du dispositif lorsqu'il est replié. According to a more convenient embodiment, the function of which is mentioned in FIG. 2, the structures (3) and (5) are articulated on the frame (1) in order to allow them to be folded back by tilting in order to reduce the bulk of the device during its transport. or when it is not in use, likewise an articulation of the saddle around its axis of attachment to the arm may allow the height of the device to be reduced when it is folded.
Cette diminution d'encombrement peut être améliorée en utilisant comme structures (3) et (5) des tubes télescopiques pouvant se raccourcir par simple coulissement. Ces tubes télescopiques sont alors munis de systèmes de blocage tels que ceux utilisés habituellement dans l'industrie du cycle. This reduction in size can be improved by using as structures (3) and (5) telescopic tubes which can be shortened by simple sliding. These telescopic tubes are then provided with blocking systems such as those usually used in the cycle industry.
Selon la même réalisation comportant un système de structures repliables, un système de verrouillage convenable repéré en (7) sur la figure 1, permet de solidariser ces structures entre elles et, de ce fait d'assurer la rigidité de l'ensemble bâti (1), structures (3) et (5). According to the same embodiment comprising a system of folding structures, a suitable locking system identified at (7) in FIG. 1, makes it possible to secure these structures together and, thereby, to ensure the rigidity of the built assembly (1 ), structures (3) and (5).
Ce système de verrouillage peut être quelconque et peut être à la limite, un simple assemblage vis-écrou. This locking system can be arbitrary and can be, at the limit, a simple screw-nut assembly.
Selon la même réalisation, ce système de blocage peut être perfectionné en utilisant un cliquet déclipsable ou tout autre système équivalent se verrouillant automatiquement lors du dépliage du dispositif et pourvu d'une possibilité de déblocage permettant le repli du dispositif. According to the same embodiment, this blocking system can be improved by using a detachable pawl or any other equivalent system which locks automatically when the device is unfolded and provided with an unlocking possibility allowing the device to be folded back.
Selon la même réalisation, ce système de cliquet est susceptible d'occuper plusieurs positions, par exemple en prévoyant plusieurs repos d'enclenchement. Il est ainsi possible de varier légèrement les inclinations relatives des structures (3) et (5) par rapport au bâti (1) permettant une adaptation précise du dispositif à la morphologie de l'utilisateur. According to the same embodiment, this ratchet system is capable of occupying several positions, for example by providing several engagement rests. It is thus possible to vary slightly the relative inclinations of the structures (3) and (5) relative to the frame (1) allowing a precise adaptation of the device to the morphology of the user.
Selon la même réalisation, la selle (4) peut être remplaçée par un support pliant, remplissant les mêmes fonctions mais permettant, lors de son repli, une diminution supplémentaire de l'encombrement du dispositif. According to the same embodiment, the saddle (4) can be replaced by a folding support, fulfilling the same functions but allowing, when folded, a further reduction in the size of the device.
Selon la même réalisation, la forme du bâti (1) est telle qu'elle recouvre les trains de roulement (2) afin d'éviter tout accrochage des pieds de l'utilisateur lorsque le dispositif est employé. According to the same embodiment, the shape of the frame (1) is such that it covers the undercarriages (2) in order to avoid any catching of the feet of the user when the device is used.
Selon la même réalisation, les structures (3) et (5) peuvent être porteurs de systèmes de supports ou de crochets permettant le transport d'objets en rendant ainsi les mains libres pour la préhension de la poignée (6). Ces accessoires (8) sont représentés sur la figure 1 par des pointillés dont la position n'est pas limitative. According to the same embodiment, the structures (3) and (5) can be carriers of support systems or hooks allowing the transport of objects thereby making the hands free for gripping the handle (6). These accessories (8) are represented in FIG. 1 by dotted lines, the position of which is not limiting.

Selon la même réalisation et sans que cela soit visible sur les figures 1 et 2, ce dispositif peut être muni d'un dispositif de ralentissement fonctionnant par friction d'un patin basculant sur le sol. According to the same embodiment and without this being visible in FIGS. 1 and 2, this device can be provided with a slowing-down device operating by friction of a shoe tilting on the ground.
La position de ce patin est repérée en (9) sur la figure 1. La commande de basculement de ce patin s'effectue à partir de la poignée (6) par un mécanisme classique à cable identique aux commandes de freins des bicyclettes. Ce mécanisme, classique, n'est pas représenté sur la figure 1. The position of this pad is identified in (9) in Figure 1. The tilting control of this pad is effected from the handle (6) by a conventional cable mechanism identical to the brake controls of bicycles. This conventional mechanism is not shown in FIG. 1.
La mise en oeuvre de ce dispositif est donc très simple. L'utilisateur reposant légèrement sur la selle, en position debout, et tenant la poignée (6), il lui suffit d'exécuter les mouvements habituels de la marche en faisant de grands pas pour se déplacer rapidement et sans fatigue. Son équilibre est complètement assuré, d'une part à travers le pied qui repose sur le sol, d'autre part par le bâti qui roule et auquel il est lié à travers la selle et la poignée sur laquelle repose sa ou ses mains. L'inclinaison, à gauche ou à droite de cette poignée lui permet le contrôle ou l'inflexion de sa trajectoire, les changements importants de direction s'effectuant comme dans une marche normale sous réserve de soulever légèrement l'avant du dispositif au moyen de la poignée F, afin de permettre la rotation autour du roulement arrière.The implementation of this device is therefore very simple. The user resting lightly on the saddle, in a standing position, and holding the handle (6), it suffices for him to execute the usual movements of walking by taking large steps to move quickly and without fatigue. Its balance is completely assured, on the one hand through the foot which rests on the ground, on the other hand by the frame which rolls and to which it is linked through the saddle and the handle on which rests its hand or hands. The inclination, to the left or to the right of this handle allows it to control or inflect its trajectory, significant changes of direction taking place as in normal walking provided that the front of the device is slightly raised by means of the handle F, to allow rotation around the rear bearing.
