Abstract

The device has a metallic rod (4) connecting a Christmas tree trunk (3) to a wooden billet base (2). The metallic rod is sufficiently malleable for adjusting a vertical height of Christmas tree by the torsion of the rod. Boring is formed in the Christmas tree trunk and the wooden billet base for forced introduction of half of the rod, where diameter of the rod is slightly larger that that of the trunk. An independent claim is also included for a method of manufacturing a holding device of straight Christmas tree.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de maintenir un Sapin de noël (coupé ), debout, sur une bûche en bois sciée par moitié dans le sens de l'épaisseur afin de pouvoir régler sa verticalité et ce pour un prix de revient modique. Dans ce qui suit on fera expressément et uniquement référence à une application du 5 pied support de l'invention en vue de soutien d'un arbre de Noël. On comprendra que l'invention n'est pas limitée à cette application. Antérieurement il était courant de percer la bûche socle d'un trou conique et ensuite d'affûter le tronc du sapin en pointe de façon à ce qu'il puisse entrer dans la bûche. Ceci avait pour inconvénient un gros travail de perçage de la bûche socle (diamètre du trou très 10 important) obligeant à enlever les branches du bas du sapin (plus de travail perte de hauteur et d'esthétique) pour libérer le tronc afin de l'affûter en pointe. Mais le principal problème était que l'on ne pouvait que difficilement mettre le sapin vertical une foi introduit dans le trou en cas de mauvais perçage ou épointage. Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à tous ces inconvénients. 15 L'idée est de percer verticalement le tronc du sapin de Noël (3) ainsi que la bûche en bois socle (2) d'y introduire en force pour moitié une tige métallique (4) légèrement plus grosse que le trou (1). Suffisamment malléable, de façon à pouvoir redresser par torsion de cette même tige le sapin en cas de non verticalité. L'intérêt une idée simple, efficace d'un prix de revient peu élevé, compte tenu du fait 20 que chaque sapin doit être vendu avec son socle bûche. The present invention relates to a device for maintaining a Christmas tree (cut), standing on a log sawed by half timber in the direction of the thickness in order to adjust its verticality and for a low cost. In what follows we will expressly and solely refer to an application of the support foot of the invention to support a Christmas tree. It will be understood that the invention is not limited to this application. Previously it was common to drill the base log of a conical hole and then sharpen the trunk of the fir tree in a point so that it could enter the log. This had the disadvantage of a large work of drilling the log base (hole diameter very important) forcing to remove the branches of the bottom of the tree (more work loss of height and aesthetics) to release the trunk in order to sharpen. But the main problem was that it was difficult to put the vertical tree a faith introduced into the hole in case of bad drilling or misfitting. The device according to the invention overcomes all these disadvantages. The idea is to vertically pierce the trunk of the Christmas tree (3) and the wooden log base (2) to introduce in force for half a metal rod (4) slightly larger than the hole (1) . Sufficiently malleable, so as to be able to straighten by torsion of this same stem the tree in case of non verticality. Interest is a simple, effective idea of a low cost price, given the fact that each tree must be sold with its log base.

On comprendra mieux l'invention à l'aide de la description et des figures faites ci après, effectivement l'ensemble comporte essentiellement The invention will be better understood by means of the description and the figures given hereinafter, effectively the set essentially comprises

25 1) Perçage (1) 2) Socle bûche en bois (2) 3) Le tronc du sapin (3) 4) 1 tige métallique reliant les deux parties (4)permettant le réglage par torsion.25 1) Drilling (1) 2) Wooden log base (2) 3) The trunk of the tree (3) 4) 1 metal rod connecting the two parts (4) allowing adjustment by torsion.

30 Seulement en France il est a peu près vendu huit millions de sapins par an , lesquels ont presque tous un problème de verticalité. Imaginez l'application industrielle. 30 In France alone, about eight million firs a year are sold, almost all of which have a problem of verticality. Imagine the industrial application.
