Abstract
Description
La présente invention a pour objet un article équipé d'au moins une bandeThe subject of the present invention is an article equipped with at least one strip
en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un article sur lequel est fixée au moins une zone telle qu'une extrémité d'une telle bande en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique, cette bande natural or synthetic rubber. The invention more particularly relates to an article to which at least one zone such as an end of such a natural or synthetic rubber band is attached, this strip
en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique étant destinée à réaliser la fixation de l'article sur un support, ou à adapter l'article sur un support. natural or synthetic rubber being intended to achieve the attachment of the article on a support, or to adapt the article on a support.
Tel est le cas par exemple pour des masques de protection qui sont destinés à couvrir la partie inférieure du visage d'un individu, et qui sont maintenus sur la tête de celui-ci par un ou plusieurs séries de bandes passant derrière la tête. Tel est également le cas pour des vêtements de protection et notamment des vêtements de protection à usage unique, qui doivent être munis d'éléments élastiques pour assurer l'étanchéité aux extrémités des jambes et des bras, mais également autour des capuches, et qui possèdent un élément élastique à la base du dos pour permettre au vêtement de s'adapter à la morphologie de l'utilisateur. Les applications précitées sont essentiellement des applications à des produits à usage unique, réalisés par exemple à partir de matériaux nontissés, tels que les matériaux non-tissés réalisés en un matériau thermosoudable, tel que le polyéthylène et le polypropylène. Avec ce type de matériaux, d'autres applications peuvent être trouvées dans le domaine des alèses ou des housses destinées à équiper des lits, notamment dans les hôpitaux. This is the case for example for protective masks which are intended to cover the lower part of the face of an individual, and which are held on the head of the latter by one or more series of strips passing behind the head. This is also the case for protective clothing, in particular single-use protective clothing, which must be fitted with elastic elements to ensure the tightness at the ends of the legs and arms, but also around the hoods, and which have an elastic element at the base of the back to allow the garment to adapt to the morphology of the user. The aforementioned applications are essentially applications to single-use products, made for example from nonwoven materials, such as nonwoven materials made of a heat-sealable material, such as polyethylene and polypropylene. With this type of material, other applications can be found in the field of mattresses or covers designed to equip beds, especially in hospitals.
Le terme "bande de caoutchouc", tel qu'il est utilisé, vise un élément allongé, pouvant posséder une section quelconque, par exemple une section circulaire, une section ovale, ou encore une section rectangulaire ou carrée. Dans ce dernier cas, lorsque la bande possède une section rectangulaire très aplatie, elle est encore appelée "laminette". The term "rubber band", as used, refers to an elongated member, which may have any section, for example a circular section, an oval section, or a rectangular or square section. In the latter case, when the band has a very flattened rectangular section, it is still called "laminette".
Le caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique ne peut être utilisé que sous forme vulcanisée. La vulcanisation consiste en un traitement thermique assurant la création de ponts chimiques entre les chaînes macromoléculaires, permettant d'obtenir des caractéristiques viscoélastiques propres aux élastomères. Cette vulcanisation conduit au développement d'un réseau tridimensionnel au sein du matériau et à la suppression de toute thermoplasticité du matériau. Cette opération de vulcanisation permet d'améliorer les qualités élastiques du matériau, notamment en lui procurant une excellente déformabilité sous l'effet d'une contrainte extérieure, tout en lui permettant de reprendre sa forme initiale lorsque cette contrainte cesse. La vulcanisation permet également de diminuer la sensibilité aux solvants. Toutefois, cette opération de vulcanisation supprime également toute thermoplasticité du matériau. Il n'est donc pas possible de réaliser des assemblages d'un matériau en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique par des techniques telles que la soudure thermique, la soudure par micro-ondes ou par haute fréquence. Leur assemblage sur un support ou un article ne peut pas être réalisé sans apport d'un matériau externe, tel qu'un dispositif mécanique de fixation par exemple par agrafage, par couture, ou par apport de colle. Natural or synthetic rubber can only be used in vulcanised form. Vulcanization consists of a heat treatment ensuring the creation of chemical bridges between the macromolecular chains, making it possible to obtain viscoelastic characteristics specific to elastomers. This vulcanization leads to the development of a three-dimensional network within the material and the removal of any thermoplasticity of the material. This vulcanization operation makes it possible to improve the elastic qualities of the material, in particular by providing it with excellent deformability under the effect of an external constraint, while allowing it to resume its initial shape when this stress ceases. Vulcanization also reduces the sensitivity to solvents. However, this vulcanization operation also removes any thermoplasticity of the material. It is therefore not possible to make assemblies of a natural or synthetic rubber material by techniques such as thermal welding, microwave welding or high frequency welding. Their assembly on a support or an article can not be achieved without the addition of an external material, such as a mechanical fixing device, for example by stapling, stitching or glue.
La fixation par agrafage présente l'inconvénient de nécessiter des éléments extérieurs, les agrafes, de réaliser l'opération de fixation de ces agrafes, et également de créer au niveau de la zone de fixation un point dur qui risque de détériorer la bande élastique par cisaillement. Dans le cas d'une fixation par couture, notamment pour l'équipement de vêtements de protection, les piqûres générées par les aiguilles fragilisent la bande élastique, et créent de nombreux trous dans le matériau constitutif du vêtement, qui permettent des échanges entre l'extérieur et l'intérieur du vêtement, nuisant ainsi à l'étanchéité recherchée. Fastening by stapling has the disadvantage of requiring external elements, the staples, to perform the operation of fixing these staples, and also to create at the fastening zone a hard point which may deteriorate the elastic band by shear. In the case of securing by sewing, especially for the equipment of protective clothing, the punctures generated by the needles weaken the elastic band, and create many holes in the material constituting the garment, which allow exchanges between the outside and inside the garment, thus affecting the desired seal.
Une solution consiste à utiliser des bandes élastiques réalisées en un matériau thermoplastique qui peut être fixé par thermosoudage sur le support, sous réserve de compatibilité du matériau constitutif de celuici. Toutefois, de tels éléments élastiques possèdent peu d'élasticité, et présentent une déformation rémanente importante, ce qui limite leurs applications, ainsi que le confort d'utilisation, lorsque l'article considéré est un article destiné à être porté par un utilisateur, tel qu'un masque ou une combinaison de protection. One solution is to use elastic bands made of a thermoplastic material which can be fixed by heat-sealing on the support, subject to compatibility of the material constituting it. However, such elastic elements have little elasticity, and exhibit significant remanent deformation, which limits their applications, as well as the comfort of use, when the article considered is an article intended to be worn by a user, such as mask or a protective suit.
Le problème technique à la base de l'invention est donc la réalisation d'un article, et notamment d'un article en matériau mince, par exemple en un matériau non-tissé, avec application à l'un des domaines énoncés précédemment, qui soit équipé de façon simple d'au moins une bande en caoutchouc vulcanisé, et qui soit d'une utilisation performante et fiable. The technical problem underlying the invention is therefore the production of an article, and in particular of an article of thin material, for example of a nonwoven material, with application to one of the aforementioned fields, which is equipped in a simple manner with at least one vulcanized rubber band, and which is of a powerful and reliable use.
A cet effet, l'article qu'elle concerne, sur lequel est fixée au moins une zone, telle qu'une extrémité d'une bande en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique, est caractérisé en ce que l'article comprend au moins une gaine qui, ménagée dans la zone de fixation considérée de la bande, possède une ouverture de section comprise entre la section de la bande au repos et la section de la bande en position étirée. For this purpose, the article to which it relates, to which at least one zone is attached, such as an end of a strip of natural or synthetic rubber, is characterized in that the article comprises at least one sheath which , formed in the considered fastening area of the strip, has a section opening between the section of the strip at rest and the section of the strip in the stretched position.
La bande élastique tient donc à l'intérieur de la gaine par simple coincement dans celle-ci. En pratique, il est procédé à la mise en tension de la bande puis à l'insertion de celle-ci dans la gaine, la bande possédant alors une section inférieure à celle de la gaine, après quoi la tension exercée sur la bande est relâchée et celle-ci reprend sa section d'origine. Le retour à la section d'origine à l'intérieur de la gaine est limité par appui de la surface de la bande contre la paroi intérieure de la gaine, ce qui provoque un blocage élastique. Ce blocage élastique est réalisé pour toute sollicitation exercée sur la bande dans un axe autre que celui formé par la gaine du matériau support. Il est à noter qu'en sollicitant la bande dans l'axe formé par la gaine, il est possible de la faire coulisser et ainsi de régler précisément sa longueur utile, en ajustant la position de la bande de caoutchouc par rapport à la gaine. The elastic band is therefore inside the sheath by simply jamming therein. In practice, it is proceeded to the tensioning of the strip and then to the insertion thereof into the sheath, the strip then having a section smaller than that of the sheath, after which the tension exerted on the strip is released. and this one resumes its original section. The return to the original section inside the sheath is limited by pressing the surface of the strip against the inner wall of the sheath, which causes an elastic locking. This elastic locking is carried out for any stress exerted on the strip in an axis other than that formed by the sheath of the support material. It should be noted that by biasing the strip in the axis formed by the sheath, it is possible to slide it and thus to precisely adjust its useful length, by adjusting the position of the rubber strip relative to the sheath.
Ainsi, et afin de permettre un bon blocage en position d'utilisation, suivant une forme d'exécution, la gaine est droite et orientée suivant une direction différente de celle de la traction exercée sur la bande en conditions d'utilisation de l'article. Thus, and in order to allow a good locking in the use position, according to one embodiment, the sheath is straight and oriented in a direction different from that of the traction exerted on the strip in conditions of use of the article .
Toujours afin de réaliser un blocage élastique, et lorsque la traction exercée sur la bande est sensiblement dans la même direction que l'axe de la gaine, la gaine présente un profil non rectiligne, tel que courbe. Still in order to achieve elastic locking, and when the tension exerted on the strip is substantially in the same direction as the axis of the sheath, the sheath has a non-rectilinear profile, such as a curve.
Suivant une première possibilité, cet article est réalisé en un matériau mince et la gaine est obtenue par repliement du matériau sur lui-même et fermeture. According to a first possibility, this article is made of a thin material and the sheath is obtained by folding the material on itself and closing.
Cette solution est simple de mise en oeuvre, dans la mesure où elle ne nécessite pas de matériaux complémentaires, la gaine étant formée par le 25 matériau même constitutif de l'article. This solution is simple to implement, insofar as it does not require complementary materials, the sheath being formed by the same material constituting the article.
Suivant une autre possibilité, la gaine est réalisée pour partie par l'article lui-même et pour partie par une bande dont les deux bords sont fixés sur l'article. En fonction de la nature des matériaux constitutifs de l'article et/ou de la bande, plusieurs solutions d'assemblage peuvent être envisagées. According to another possibility, the sheath is made partly by the article itself and partly by a strip whose two edges are fixed on the article. Depending on the nature of the constituent materials of the article and / or the strip, several assembly solutions can be envisaged.
Suivant une première solution, le matériau mince et la bande éventuellement rapportée sur l'article sont thermosoudables, et la fermeture de la gaine est réalisée par thermosoudage. According to a first solution, the thin material and the band optionally attached to the article are heat-sealable, and the closure of the sheath is made by heat sealing.
Suivant une autre solution, le matériau mince constitutif de l'article et la bande éventuellement rapportée sur celui-ci, ou l'un ou l'autre de ces deux composants, sont réalisés en des matériaux thermosoudables ou non thermosoudables, et la fermeture de la gaine est obtenue par collage ou par couture. According to another solution, the thin material constituting the article and the band optionally attached thereto, or one or other of these two components, are made of heat-sealable or non-heat-sealable materials, and the closure of the sheath is obtained by gluing or sewing.
Conformément à une forme de réalisation de cet article, celui-ci est réalisé à partir d'un matériau non-tissé en matière thermosoudable, telle que polyéthylène ou polypropylène et comprend au moins une bande constituée par une laminette en caoutchouc naturel ou synthétique. According to one embodiment of this article, it is made from a nonwoven material of heat-sealable material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene and comprises at least one strip consisting of a natural or synthetic rubber laminette.
Un procédé pour la fabrication de cet article consiste à exercer une traction sur la zone de la bande en caoutchouc à fixer sur l'article, à positionner cette zone contre l'article, à réaliser la formation de la gaine sur l'article et autour de la bande, puis à relâcher la tension exercée sur la bande en caoutchouc pour obtenir sa fixation dans la gaine. A method for the manufacture of this article is to exert traction on the area of the rubber band to be fixed on the article, to position this area against the article, to achieve the formation of the sheath on the article and around of the belt, then release the tension exerted on the rubber band to obtain its fixing in the sheath.
De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés, représentant, à titre d'exemples non limitatifs, une forme d'exécution d'un article selon l'invention et différents modes d'obtention et de mise en oeuvre de celuici. In any case, the invention will be better understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended diagrammatic drawings, representing, by way of nonlimiting examples, an embodiment of an article according to the invention. and different ways of obtaining and implementing it.

Figure 8 est une vue schématique d'une zone de fixation d'une bande en conditions d'utilisation. Figure 8 is a schematic view of a band fixing area under conditions of use.
Figure 9 est une vue schématique d'un autre mode de fixation d'une bande. Figure 9 is a schematic view of another method of fixing a band.
La figure 1 représente un masque de protection respiratoire 2 en position montée sur le visage d'un individu, et fixé sur celui-ci par deux bandes 3 de caoutchouc, formant chacune une boucle fermée, chaque bande étant fixée à proximité de ses extrémités en des emplacements 4 sur le masque. FIG. 1 represents a respiratory protection mask 2 in position mounted on the face of an individual, and fixed thereto by two strips 3 of rubber, each forming a closed loop, each band being fixed near its ends in slots 4 on the mask.
Comme montré au dessin, les moyens de fixation de chaque bande sur le masque sont constitués par des gaines 5 ménagées sur le bord du masque. As shown in the drawing, the fixing means of each band on the mask are constituted by sheaths 5 formed on the edge of the mask.
Les figures 3 à 7 représentent le mode de montage d'une bande 3 dans une zone de montage 4. A ces figures, la partie de masque 2 est seulement schématisée. Au niveau de la fixation d'une bande 3, le masque est conformé afin de présenter une patte 6 en saillie par rapport au reste du masque. Figures 3 to 7 show the mounting mode of a band 3 in a mounting area 4. In these figures, the mask portion 2 is only schematized. At the level of the fixing of a band 3, the mask is shaped to present a lug 6 protruding from the rest of the mask.
Dans un premier temps, et comme montré à la figure 3, la bande 3 est posée sur la partie en saillie 6. La figure 4 montre qu'une traction est exercée sur la bande 3, qui se traduit par une réduction de la section de celle-ci dans la zone 4 devant être fixée sur le masque 2. Comme montré à la figure 5, tout en maintenant la traction sur la bande 3, la partie 6 est repliée autour de la bande 3. Comme représenté à la figure 6, la partie 6, après avoir été repliée sur elle-même, est fixée sur la partie principale 2 par soudage, dans la mesure où le masque est réalisé en un matériau thermosoudable, tel qu'en polyéthylène ou en polypropylène. Ce soudage est schématisé par les points 7 de la figure 6. In a first step, and as shown in FIG. 3, the band 3 is placed on the protruding part 6. FIG. 4 shows that traction is exerted on the band 3, which results in a reduction of the section of the latter in zone 4 to be fixed on the mask 2. As shown in FIG. 5, while maintaining the traction on the band 3, the part 6 is folded around the band 3. As represented in FIG. the part 6, after being folded on itself, is fixed on the main part 2 by welding, insofar as the mask is made of a heat-sealable material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene. This welding is shown schematically by the points 7 of FIG.
Cette opération de soudage permet de disposer d'une gaine dont 15 l'ouverture, c'est-à-dire le passage destiné à la bande 3, est inférieure à la section de la bande 3 au repos. This welding operation makes it possible to have a sheath whose opening, that is to say the passage intended for the band 3, is less than the section of the strip 3 at rest.
Une fois la gaine fermée, la traction exercée sur la bande 3 est relâchée, comme montré à la figure 7, de telle sorte que la bande retrouve sa section initiale, sauf dans la gaine 8, puisque la section de passage de celle-ci est inférieure à la section de la bande au repos. Il en résulte donc un blocage élastique. Toutefois, il peut être noté que si une nouvelle traction est exercée sur la bande, il est possible de déplacer celle-ci à l'intérieur de la gaine 8, ce qui permet d'assurer un réglage de la position de la bande élastique vis-à-vis de la gaine et par suite vis-à-vis de l'article 2. Once the sheath closed, the traction exerted on the band 3 is released, as shown in FIG. 7, so that the band returns to its initial section, except in the sheath 8, since the passage section thereof is less than the section of the strip at rest. This results in an elastic lock. However, it can be noted that if a new traction is exerted on the strip, it is possible to move it inside the sheath 8, which ensures a position adjustment of the elastic band screw with respect to the sheath and consequently to Article 2.
Afin d'éviter le glissement de la bande par rapport à la gaine, en conditions d'utilisation, la traction exercée sur la bande doit être orientée suivant une direction différente de celle de la gaine. Cela est schématisé à la figure 8, où la traction exercée sur la bande est représentée par une flèche 9. Dans le cas d'un masque représenté aux figures 1 et 2, la tension exercée sur les bandes élastiques n'est pas dans l'axe des gaines 8, comme cela ressort du dessin. In order to prevent slippage of the strip with respect to the sheath, under conditions of use, the traction exerted on the strip must be oriented in a direction different from that of the sheath. This is shown diagrammatically in FIG. 8, where the traction exerted on the band is represented by an arrow 9. In the case of a mask represented in FIGS. 1 and 2, the tension exerted on the elastic bands is not in the ducts axis 8, as shown in the drawing.
Si la traction sur la bande élastique doit être exercée sensiblement axialement à la gaine 8, il est possible de réaliser une gaine 18 de forme courbe, comme représenté à la figure 9, ou d'associer à la gaine 8 une autre gaine 8 décalée latéralement, ou encore de prévoir, en association à une gaine droite 8, d'autres éléments de guidage de la bande 9 formant chicane. If the traction on the elastic band must be exerted substantially axially to the sheath 8, it is possible to make a sheath 18 of curved shape, as shown in Figure 9, or to associate with the sheath 8 another sheath 8 laterally offset , or to provide, in combination with a straight sheath 8, other guide elements of the band 9 forming baffle.
Dans la forme d'exécution décrite précédemment, la gaine 8 est réalisée à partir d'une partie 6 appartenant à l'article 2, et la gaine est réalisée par repliement de cette partie 6 autour de la bande 3. Toutefois, il serait possible de réaliser la gaine dans un premier temps, puis d'introduire la bande 3 à l'intérieur de la gaine, en position étirée, avant de procéder à son relâchement assurant un blocage élastique. In the embodiment described above, the sheath 8 is made from a portion 6 belonging to the article 2, and the sheath is made by folding this portion 6 around the strip 3. However, it would be possible to make the sheath at first, then to introduce the band 3 inside the sheath, in the stretched position, before proceeding to its release ensuring an elastic locking.
Suivant une variante de réalisation de cet article, et en fonction des matériaux utilisés, il serait possible d'assurer la fermeture de la gaine par collage ou par couture. According to an alternative embodiment of this article, and depending on the materials used, it would be possible to ensure the closure of the sheath by gluing or sewing.
II est également possible de réaliser la gaine non pas à partir d'une partie 6 faisant saillie de l'article 2, mais à partir d'une bande de matériau rapportée sur l'article 2 à l'emplacement où la gaine doit être formée et fixée le long de deux bords longitudinaux soit par soudage, soit par collage, suivant la nature des matériaux mis en oeuvre, comme indiqué précédemment. It is also possible to make the sheath not from a portion 6 protruding from the article 2, but from a strip of material attached to the article 2 at the location where the sheath is to be formed and fixed along two longitudinal edges either by welding or by gluing, depending on the nature of the materials used, as indicated above.
Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas aux seules formes d'exécution de cet article décrites ci-dessus à titre d'exemples, ni aux seuls procédés de fabrication définis ci-dessus, elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes de réalisation. It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the embodiments of this article described above as examples, nor to the manufacturing processes defined above, it encompasses all the variants of embodiment.
