Contenant en bois au moins en partie réalisé par aboutage et procédé de fabrication correspondant Invention de : PETITEAUX Alban VERMILLARD Frédéric Contenant en bois au moins en partie réalisée par aboutage et procédé de fabrication correspondant Simplified joint stock company known as: SEGUIN MOREAU & C. Wooden container at least partly made by jointing and corresponding manufacturing process Invention of: PETITEAUX Alban VERMILLARD Frédéric Wooden container at least partially made by butting and corresponding manufacturing method

L'invention concerne le domaine de la vinification et de l'élevage des vins et eaux de vie. Elle concerne plus particulièrement un contenant en bois tel qu'une cuve ou un foudre. Comme on le sait, une cuve ou un foudre en bois comprend un ensemble de douelles périphériques délimitant avec deux plaques d'extrémité un volume interne de la cuve ou du foudre. Une cuve de vinification, mais également un foudre, sont formés d'un assemblage de pièces de bois de grande longueur, les douelles, sciées à la longueur voulue. Ces pièces de bois ne doivent pas se déformer dans le temps afin d'assurer l'étanchéité du contenant. Or les pièces de bois pouvant atteindre jusqu'à 5 m de long, leur stabilité mécanique n'est pas garantie dans le temps, engendrant un risque de déformation des éléments du contenant et une perte d'étanchéité. En outre, l'utilisation de pièces de bois de grande longueur présente des inconvénients en terme de coût de fabrication. The invention relates to the field of winemaking and aging of wines and spirits. It relates more particularly to a wooden container such as a tank or a lightning. As is known, a tank or a lightning in wood includes a set of peripheral staves delimiting with two end plates an internal volume of the tank or lightning. A vat of wine, but also a lightning, are formed of an assembly of pieces of wood of great length, the staves, sawn to the desired length. These pieces of wood must not deform in time to ensure the tightness of the container. However wood pieces up to 5 m long, their mechanical stability is not guaranteed over time, creating a risk of deformation of the elements of the container and a loss of tightness. In addition, the use of wood pieces of great length has disadvantages in terms of manufacturing cost.

De plus la fabrication du contenant, à partir de longues pièces de bois s'accompagne d'un rendement d'utilisation de la matière assez faible, en raison du fait qu'elle rend impossible l'utilisation de chutes. Le but de l'invention est ainsi de fournir un contenant en bois permettant de pallier ces inconvénients. Moreover the manufacture of the container, from long pieces of wood is accompanied by a yield of use of the material rather low, because it makes it impossible to use falls. The object of the invention is thus to provide a wooden container to overcome these disadvantages.

L'invention a donc pour objet un contenant en bois comprenant un ensemble de douelles périphériques, deux plaques d'extrémité délimitant avec les douelles un volume interne du contenant en bois. Selon une caractéristique générale de ce contenant en bois, une partie au moins du contenant en bois est réalisée par aboutage de pièces de bois. Les exigences de performance des aboutages sont définies dans la norme NF EN 385. Avantageusement on choisira de procéder suivant l'enseignement de cette norme. The invention therefore relates to a wooden container comprising a set of peripheral staves, two end plates delimiting with the staves an internal volume of the wooden container. According to a general characteristic of this wooden container, at least part of the wooden container is made by butting pieces of wood. The performance requirements of fingerings are defined in the NF EN 385 standard. Advantageously, it will be chosen to proceed according to the teaching of this standard.

L'opération d'aboutage permet de joindre des pièces de bois homogènes et de longueur réduite. L'utilisation de l'aboutage pour la réalisation de grands contenants permet de la rendre moins coûteuse, plus rentable puisqu'il est alors possible d'utiliser la récupération des rebuts de bois, et plus stable mécaniquement. Cette technique pallie le manque de résistance et le risque de déformation lors de l'utilisation de pièces de bois de dimensions importantes. La fabrication par aboutage de pièces de bois est moins chère pour le fabricant et plus stable et résistante mécaniquement pour l'utilisateur final. The butting operation makes it possible to join pieces of homogeneous wood of reduced length. The use of fingertips for the production of large containers makes it less expensive, more profitable since it is then possible to use the recovery of wood scrap, and more mechanically stable. This technique overcomes the lack of resistance and the risk of deformation when using large-sized pieces of wood. Finger joint manufacturing is cheaper for the manufacturer and more stable and mechanically resistant for the end user.

Dans un mode de réalisation, au moins une des plaques d'extrémité du contenant en bois est réalisée par aboutage de pièces de bois. Dans un autre mode de réalisation particulier, dans le cas d'une cuve, la plaque de fond inférieure est réalisée par aboutage de pièces de bois. En effet, ce procédé d'aboutage a un intérêt accru si l'on souligne que la plaque de fond inférieure, de plus grande surface que la plaque de fond supérieure, doit être plus résistante mécaniquement. Les pièces de bois peuvent être assemblées par collage. Avantageusement le collage des pièces de bois est réalisé au moyen d'une colle vinylique alimentaire. Cette colle permet d'assembler les pièces de bois de longueur réduite sans altérer ni rendre nocif le contenu de la cuve ou du foudre. Selon une caractéristique générale du contenant en bois, sa contenance est d'au moins 1000 litres. Sa contenance peut par exemple être comprise entre 1000 et 100 000 litres. L'invention a également pour objet, selon un deuxième aspect, un procédé de fabrication d'un contenant en bois dans lequel au moins une partie du contenant en bois est réalisée par aboutage de pièces de bois. In one embodiment, at least one of the end plates of the wooden container is made by butting pieces of wood. In another particular embodiment, in the case of a tank, the bottom bottom plate is made by butting pieces of wood. Indeed, this method of abutment has an increased interest if it is emphasized that the lower bottom plate, larger area than the upper bottom plate, must be more mechanically resistant. The pieces of wood can be assembled by gluing. Advantageously, the gluing of the pieces of wood is carried out by means of a vinyl food glue. This glue makes it possible to assemble the pieces of wood of reduced length without altering or rendering harmful the contents of the tank or the lightning. According to a general characteristic of the wooden container, its capacity is at least 1000 liters. Its capacity may for example be between 1000 and 100 000 liters. The invention also relates, in a second aspect, to a method of manufacturing a wooden container in which at least a portion of the wooden container is made by butting pieces of wood.

D'autres buts, caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description suivante, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et faite en référence aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels : - la figure 1 illustre la constitution d'une cuve fabriquée selon l'enseignement de l'invention ; - la figure 2 illustre la constitution d'un foudre également fabriqué selon l'enseignement de l'invention ; et - la figure 3 illustre un fond d'une cuve ou d'un foudre. Sur les figures 1 et 2, on a représenté respectivement une vue de face d'une cuve et une vue arrière d'un exemple de foudre. Other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent on reading the following description, given solely by way of nonlimiting example, and with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. a tank manufactured according to the teaching of the invention; - Figure 2 illustrates the constitution of a lightning also manufactured according to the teaching of the invention; and - Figure 3 illustrates a bottom of a tank or a lightning. In Figures 1 and 2, there is shown respectively a front view of a tank and a rear view of an example of lightning.

Comme on le voit sur la figure 1, la cuve comporte un ensemble de douelles 2 périphériques, une plaque de fond supérieure 3 et une plaque de fond inférieure 4 (non visible sur la figure) délimitant avec l'ensemble de douelles 2 un volume interne de la cuve. Sur la figure 2 est représenté un foudre comportant un ensemble de douelles délimitant un volume interne et fermé par des plaques d'extrémité telles que 5. On a représenté sur la figure 3 la plaque d'extrémité P d'une telle cuve ou d'un tel foudre. La plaque P est ici réalisée par aboutage de pièces de bois 6 de petite taille, c'est-à-dire de dimensions inférieures au diamètre du contenant, avec par exemple une colle vinylique alimentaire 7 qui permet d'assembler les pièces de bois 6, conjointement avec un usinage spécifique. L'objectif est ici d'éviter d'altérer le contenu de la cuve ou du foudre, notamment par le relargage de composés chimiques odorants. As can be seen in FIG. 1, the tank comprises a set of peripheral staves 2, an upper bottom plate 3 and a bottom bottom plate 4 (not visible in the figure) delimiting with the set of staves 2 an internal volume of the tank. FIG. 2 shows a lightning unit comprising a set of staves delimiting an internal volume and closed by end plates such as 5. FIG. 3 shows the end plate P of such a tank or of such a lightning. The plate P is here made by butting pieces of wood 6 of small size, that is to say of dimensions smaller than the diameter of the container, with for example a vinyl food glue 7 which allows to assemble the pieces of wood 6 , together with a specific machining. The objective here is to avoid altering the contents of the tank or lightning, in particular by the release of odorous chemical compounds.

Selon cette technique d'assemblage par aboutage des pièces de bois, celles-ci sont collées les unes aux autres par leur bord d'extrémité respectif et de telle sorte que les zones de jonction de deux pièces de bois soient décalées par rapport aux zones de jonction des pièces de bois auxquelles elles sont latéralement assemblées par serrage. L'utilisation de pièces de bois 6 de petite taille rend ainsi la plaque P plus résistante et moins déformable. De plus, la possibilité d'utiliser des rebuts de bois permet une fabrication plus rentable. According to this jointing technique of the pieces of wood, they are glued to each other by their respective end edge and so that the junction zones of two pieces of wood are offset from the zones of junction of the pieces of wood to which they are laterally assembled by clamping. The use of small wood pieces 6 thus makes the plate P more resistant and less deformable. In addition, the possibility of using scrap wood allows a more profitable manufacturing.

Elle permet également de réduire le risque de déformation des pièces de bois assemblées. On notera que l'on ne sort pas du cadre de l'invention lorsque les pièces de bois sont assemblées, non pas par collage, mais au moyen de toute autre technique appropriée pour l'utilisation usagée, par exemple par soudage. Enfin, dans divers modes de réalisation, l'ensemble peut, en partie ou entièrement être réalisé, c'est-à-dire y compris les douelles périphériques, au moyen d'une technique d'aboutage. It also reduces the risk of deformation of the assembled pieces of wood. Note that it is not beyond the scope of the invention when the wood parts are assembled, not by gluing, but by any other technique appropriate for the used use, for example by welding. Finally, in various embodiments, the assembly may, in part or entirely be realized, that is to say including the peripheral staves, by means of a finger jointing technique.
