DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION

L'invention concerne une cellule et un monument funeraire destines a contenir des The invention relates to a cell and a funeral monument intended to contain

urnes remplies des cendres d'un defunt ou d'un animal incinere. urns filled with the ashes of a deceased or cremated animal.

Le nombre de personnel qui souhaitent etre incinerees au moment de leur deces augmentant sans cesse et les cimetieres urbains manquant de place pour des tombes individuelles, les communes doivent prevoir des zones dans les cimetieres ou les urnes contenant les cendres puissent etre convenablement deposees. Ce besoin est d'autant plus o grand que le nombre de personnel qui ne souhaitent pas de tombe individuelle grandit The number of personnel who wish to be cremated at the time of their death increases constantly and the urban cemeteries lacking space for individual tombs, the communes must provide zones in the cemeteries where the urns containing the ashes can be suitably deposited. This need is all the greater if the number of personnel who do not wish an individual grave increases

Le document FR 2 770 557 A1 decrit un procede de realisation d'un lieu de deversement de cendres funeraires consistent a delimiter un espace sur le sol et a proteger cet espace de fa,con a ce que les cendres puissent reposer en un lieu precis, sans risquer d'etre deplacees ou melangees a d'autres. Les cendres vent deversees dans un canal debouchant sur le sol qui est prevu dans un bloc pesant. Cette solution ne convient pas au Document FR 2 770 557 A1 describes a process for producing a funeral ash dumping site consisting in delimiting a space on the ground and in protecting this space in such a way that the ashes can rest in a specific place, without the risk of being moved or mixed with others. The ashes are poured into a channel leading to the ground which is provided in a heavy block. This solution is not suitable for

grand nombre de personnel souhaitant le depot des cendres dans une urne. large number of personnel wishing to deposit the ashes in an urn.

La demande EP 1 054 120 A2 decrit une niche auto-assemblable pour cendres mortuaires qui permet de conserver les cendres de maniere inviolable a l'abri des Application EP 1 054 120 A2 describes a self-assembling niche for mortuary ashes which makes it possible to keep the ashes inviolably protected from

intemperies, mais qui est relativement coOteuse. weather, but which is relatively expensive.

L'objectif de la presente invention est de creer une celluie qui permette la construction de columbariums pouvant etre adaptes aux conditions de place et a l'environnement variant The objective of the present invention is to create a cell which allows the construction of columbariums which can be adapted to the space conditions and to the varying environment.

d'un cimetiere a l'autre.from one cemetery to another.

Ce but est atteint par ['invention en ce que la cellule est constituee d'une plaque inferieure et d'une plaque superieure horizontales et de quatre parois verticales placees entre ces deux plaques, les deux parois laterales placees entre la paroi de fond et la paroi frontale formant un angle aigu entre elles de maniere que la paroi de fond est plus course que la paroi frontale. Cette forme trapezodale de la cellule permet une multitude de variations et d'arrangements differents. Les cellules de cette configuration vent a la fois relativement faciles a prefabriquer et a transporter sur place. Wiles vent parfaitement modulables et o peuvent etre posees par exemple en ligne, en rond, en demi-cercle et etre superposees de plusieurs manieres permettant ainsi d'adapter les columbariums construits avec ces cellules This object is achieved by the invention in that the cell consists of a horizontal bottom plate and an upper plate and four vertical walls placed between these two plates, the two lateral walls placed between the bottom wall and the front wall forming an acute angle between them so that the bottom wall is more travel than the front wall. This trapezoidal shape of the cell allows a multitude of variations and different arrangements. The cells in this configuration are both relatively easy to prefabricate and transport on site. Wiles are perfectly modular and can be placed, for example in a line, in a circle, in a semicircle and be superimposed in several ways, thus allowing the columbariums built with these cells to be adapted

aux exigences du lieu.to the requirements of the place.

Conformement a ['invention, il est preferable que ['angle entre les parois laterales soit de 45 , de 30 ou de 22,5 . Ces angles permettent un grand nombre d'arrangements spatiaux des cellules et conviennent dans la plupart des cast Cependant, il est bien sur possible de According to the invention, it is preferable that the angle between the side walls is 45, 30 or 22.5. These angles allow a large number of spatial arrangements of the cells and are suitable in most cast. However, it is of course possible to

prevoir d'autres angles aigus.provide other acute angles.

Dans une variante de ['invention, la plaque superieure et la plaque inferieure s'alignent o sur les contours des parois laterales et de la paroi de fond et depassent la paroi frontale. La paroi frontale couvrant le plus souvent une ouverture pour le depot des cendres, il convient de In a variant of the invention, the upper plate and the lower plate are aligned with the contours of the side walls and of the bottom wall and exceed the front wall. The front wall usually covering an opening for the deposit of ash, it is advisable to

proteger cette face des intemperies afin d'eviter ['entree d'humidite dans la cellule. protect this side from the weather in order to avoid the entry of humidity into the cell.

Dans une autre variante, la plaque superieure et la plaque inferieure s'alignent sur les In another variant, the upper plate and the lower plate align with the

contours des parois laterales et depassent la paroi frontale et la paroi de fond. contours of the side walls and exceed the front wall and the bottom wall.

Ceci permet d'observer une continuite, notamment si les cellules vent tournees de 180 This makes it possible to observe a continuity, in particular if the cells are rotated by 180

par rapport aux cellules voisines.compared to neighboring cells.

il est prevu que la partie des plaques superieure et inferieure depassant la paroi frontale it is expected that the part of the upper and lower plates exceeding the front wall

decrive un arc de cercle.describe an arc.

Cette forme qui est facile a realiser permet de realiser des arrangements harmonieux et This form which is easy to realize allows to realize harmonious arrangements and

evite surtout la cassure de la pierre. especially avoids the breakage of the stone.

11 est egalement possible de subdiviser la paroi frontale en deux parties qui forment It is also possible to subdivide the front wall into two parts which form

entre elles un angle compris entre 120 et 150 . between them an angle between 120 and 150.

Une telle subdivision permet de prevoir une partie de la paroi frontale fixe et une partie amovible ce qui est preferable du point de vue de la solidite de ['ensemble, la paroi frontale Such a subdivision makes it possible to provide a part of the fixed front wall and a removable part which is preferable from the point of view of the solidity of the assembly, the front wall

etant souvent la paroi la plus longue. often being the longest wall.

11 est avantageux que les deux parties de la paroi frontale soient de longueur differente. It is advantageous for the two parts of the front wall to be of different length.

On choisira en fonction des exigences statiques et de la taille des urnes a deposer dans We will choose according to the static requirements and the size of the urns to deposit in

la cellule laquelle des deux parties servira d'ouverture et laquelle sera fixe. the cell which of the two parts will serve as the opening and which will be fixed.

11 est preferable dans ce contexte que la partie des plaques superieure et inferieure qui It is preferable in this context that the part of the upper and lower plates which

depasse la paroi frontale suive les contours des deux parties de la paroi frontale. exceeds the front wall follows the contours of the two parts of the front wall.

Cette mesure est egalement prise dans un souci d'harmonie des formes, notamment This measurement is also taken for the sake of harmony of forms, in particular

dans le cas de superposition de plusieurs cellules. in the case of superposition of several cells.

Dans le cadre de la presente invention, il est possible de prevoir une ouverture au o niveau de la plaque superieure, de la plaque frontale ou au niveau d'une au moins des parois laterales. Ceci permet un grand nombre de juxtapositions des cellules tout en laissant un In the context of the present invention, it is possible to provide an opening at the level of the upper plate, of the front plate or at at least one of the side walls. This allows a large number of cell juxtapositions while leaving a

acces a l'interieur de chacune d'elles. access to the interior of each of them.

Dans un mode de realisation privilegie, la plaque superieure, la plaque frontale ou au In a preferred embodiment, the upper plate, the front plate or at

moins une des parois laterales est amovible. at least one of the side walls is removable.

Enfin, I'invention concerne egalement un monument funeraire destine a contenir des urnes remplies des cendres d'un defunt ou d'un animal incinere, constitue d'au moins deux Finally, the invention also relates to a funeral monument intended to contain urns filled with the ashes of a deceased or cremated animal, consisting of at least two

La cellule correspondent a ['invention montree aux figures 1 a 3 est constituee d'une plaque inferieure (1) et d'une plaque superieure (2) horizontales et de quatre parois (3, 4, 5, 6) verticales placees entre ces deux plaques (1, 2). Les deux parois laterales (3, 5) placees entre la paroi de fond (4) et la paroi frontale (6) forment entre elles un angle aigu, qui dans l'exemple montre est d'environ 45 de maniere que la paroi de fond (4) est plus course que la The cell corresponding to the invention shown in Figures 1 to 3 consists of a bottom plate (1) and a top plate (2) horizontal and four walls (3, 4, 5, 6) vertical placed between these two plates (1, 2). The two side walls (3, 5) placed between the bottom wall (4) and the front wall (6) form an acute angle between them, which in the example shown is approximately 45 so that the bottom wall (4) is more stroke than

paroi frontale (6) et que la cellule presente une forme trapezodale. front wall (6) and that the cell has a trapezoidal shape.

Dans l'exemple montre, la plaque superieure (2) et la plaque inferieure (1) s'alignent sur les contours des parois laterales (3, 5) et s'etendent au-dela de la paroi frontale (6) et de la In the example shown, the upper plate (2) and the lower plate (1) align with the contours of the side walls (3, 5) and extend beyond the front wall (6) and the

paroi de fond (4), les parties depassant la paroi frontale (6) decrivant un arc de cercle. bottom wall (4), the parts extending beyond the front wall (6) describing an arc of a circle.

L'espace interieur de la cellule contient 3 urnes disposees cote a cote. II est bien sur possible d'adapter le contenu de la cellule en fonction des exigences. II est done possible de concevoir des cellules pour 1 urne, des cellules pour plusieurs urnes disposees cote a cote (par exemple 3 a 5 urnes), voire des cellules permettant la superposition d'urnes (une ou plusieurs The interior space of the cell contains 3 urns arranged side by side. It is of course possible to adapt the content of the cell according to the requirements. It is therefore possible to design cells for 1 urn, cells for several urns arranged side by side (for example 3 to 5 urns), or even cells allowing the superposition of urns (one or more

par etage) separes par une plaque horizontale ou non. by floor) separated by a horizontal plate or not.

o Cet exemple montre que la paroi frontale (6) est subdivisee en deux parties (6a, 6b) lineaires qui forment entre elles un angle d'environ 120 , les deux parties (6a, 6b) de la paroi frontale (6) ayant des longueurs differentes. La partie la plus longue (6a) de la paroi frontale o This example shows that the front wall (6) is subdivided into two linear parts (6a, 6b) which form an angle of about 120 between them, the two parts (6a, 6b) of the front wall (6) having different lengths. The longest part (6a) of the front wall

(6) est amovible afin de permettre le depot d'urnes (7). (6) is removable to allow the deposit of ballot boxes (7).

La figure 4 montre une autre cellule de meme constitution generale mais qui differe de la premiere en ce que les parties des plaques superieure (2) et inferieure (1) qui sietendent au-dela de la paroi frontale (6) suivent les contours des deux parties (6a, 6b) de la paroi frontale (6). La partie qui depasse n'est done pas en arc de cercle mais presente deux arretes Figure 4 shows another cell of the same general constitution but which differs from the first in that the parts of the upper (2) and lower (1) plates which extend beyond the front wall (6) follow the contours of the two parts (6a, 6b) of the front wall (6). The part which exceeds is therefore not in an arc, but has two stops

formant entre elles un angle d'environ 120 . forming an angle of about 120 between them.

Les figures 5 a 9 montrent des exemples d'arrangements possibles avec les cellules de ['invention. II va de soi que les cellules vent superposables sur plusieurs niveaux ce qui permet d'aug menter encore le nom bre d 'arrangements imag i nables, d'autant plus que des Figures 5 to 9 show examples of possible arrangements with the cells of the invention. It goes without saying that the cells are stackable on several levels, which makes it possible to further increase the number of imaginable arrangements, all the more so as

arrangements un quinconce ou par superposition exacte vent possibles. staggered arrangements or by exact wind overlay possible.
