Abstract

The device has a proximity sensor (4) integrated inside a head (5) of a needle (6), and an electronic case (1) to emit a sound signal (3) to the head of the sensor. The case has a metal blade (2) on one of lateral sides of the case and locates the sensor using the sound signal. The case is manipulated at 5 cm from a wall, ceiling or ground until locating the sensor integrated in the head. Energy provided for the case is supplied by a battery of 12 or 24 volts.

Description

. -10 ZG 3 DISPOSITIF POUR LOCALISER UNE AIGUILLE BLOQUEE DANS UN CONDUIT. -10 ZG 3 DEVICE FOR LOCATING A BLOCKED NEEDLE IN A CONDUIT

OU GAINE ELECTRIQUE La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour localiser une aiguille d'électricien qui rencontre des difficultés ou obstacle dans un conduit ou gaine électrique. L'aiguille est un outille traditionnellement utiliser par des électriciens, elle est munie d'une tête chercheuse qui permet de s'infiltrer dans des conduits ou gaine électriques et qui permet de tirer tous câbles conducteurs. Exemple :  The present invention relates to a device for locating an electrician's needle that encounters difficulties or obstacles in an electrical conduit or duct. The needle is a tool traditionally used by electricians, it is equipped with a homing head that allows to infiltrate into conduits or electrical sheath and that pulls all conductive cables. Example:

-fils électriques - fils téléphonique/TV - câble de fibre optique  wires - telephone wire / TV - fiber optic cable

Lorsque l'électricien se trouve sur un chantier de rénovation et qu'il doit appliquer une mise en sécurité, il doit changer et mettre aux normes tous les fils électrique. Or les règlementations des syndics de copropriété ne délivrent aucune autorisation a l'entreprise pour procéder a des travaux de saignes et d'encastrements dans les murs. Ce qui ne laisse pas le choix a l'électricien qui doit utiliser les conduits ou gaines existants. Sur 90% de ce type de rénovation, les électriciens constatent que les conduits ou gaines sont bloquée soit bouchée, ne permettant plus à l'aiguille de continuer dans son cheminement. Il arrive même que sur des chantiers de construction, dans une installation d'équipement électrique neuve, fréquemment l'électricien rencontre ce même type de difficulté. Exemple : Une gaine passant dans le sol, par-dessus celle-ci une chape en ciment est coulée, il se peut alors que par défaut la gaine soit pincée par le poids de la chape et empêche le cheminement de l'aiguille.  When the electrician is on a renovation project and must apply a safety, he must change and upgrade all electrical wires. But the regulations of the condominium managers do not issue any authorization to the company to proceed with bleeding and embedding in the walls. This does not leave the choice to the electrician who must use existing ducts or ducts. On 90% of this type of renovation, electricians find that ducts or ducts are blocked or clogged, no longer allowing the needle to continue in its path. It even happens that on construction sites, in a new electrical equipment installation, frequently the electrician encounters this same type of difficulty. Example: A sheath passing through the ground, over which a cement screed is poured, it may be that by default the sheath is pinched by the weight of the yoke and prevents the movement of the needle.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Il comporte en effet, selon une première caractéristique un capteur de proximité intégrable a l'intérieur de la tête chercheuse de l'aiguille permettant a l'électricien de localiser la proximité exacte de la tête chercheuse bloquée dans le conduit ou gaine, a l'aide d'un boîtier électronique qui émettrait un signal sonore précisément a l'endroit exacte de la tête chercheuse. Ce qui permet à l'électricien de creuser précisément sur la surface cible par le boîtier électronique et de débloquer le passage afin de permettre à l'aiguille son cheminement.  The device according to the invention overcomes these disadvantages. It comprises, in fact, according to a first characteristic an integrable proximity sensor inside the searcher head of the needle allowing the electrician to locate the exact proximity of the blocked search head in the duct or sheath, to the using an electronic box that would emit a sound signal precisely at the exact location of the search head. This allows the electrician to precisely dig on the target surface by the electronic box and unblock the passage to allow the needle its path.

Cette invention permet a l'électricien de résoudre des difficultés très rapidement ce qui éviterai d'engendrer des dégâts (saignes, reboucher les saignes) et de gagner du temps.  This invention allows the electrician to solve difficulties very quickly which will avoid causing damage (bleeding, reseal bleeding) and save time.

En référence a ces dessins, le dispositif comporte un boîtier électronique (1) équipe d'une lame métallique (2) sur l'une des faces latérales du boîtier (1) qui localise le capteur de proximité (4) a l'aide d'un signal sonore (3) et qui serait manipulée a peut prêt a 5 cm du mur, plafond ou sol, jusqu'à localiser le capteur de proximité (4) intègre dans la tête chercheuse (5) de l'aiguille (6)  With reference to these drawings, the device comprises an electronic box (1) equipped with a metal blade (2) on one of the lateral faces of the housing (1) which locates the proximity sensor (4) with the aid of a sound signal (3) which could be manipulated to a distance of 5 cm from the wall, ceiling or floor, until locating the proximity sensor (4) integrates into the searcher head (5) of the needle (6)

L'énergie (7) fournie pour le boîtier (1) peut être alimentée par une batterie 12 ou 24 volts. Selon la consommation de l'appareil. i  The energy (7) supplied for the housing (1) can be powered by a 12 or 24 volt battery. Depending on the consumption of the device. i
