Description

CHARIOT MULTI-USAGES DU GENRE DIABLEMULTI-PURPOSE TROLLEY OF THE DEVIL TYPE
La présente invention concerne un chariot multi-usages du genre diable plus particulièrement destiné à un usage domestique.The present invention relates to a multi-purpose cart of the devil kind more particularly intended for domestic use.
Certains chariots utilisés pour faire des achats dans les grandes surfaces marchandes par exemple, se présentent sous la forme d'un diable léger équipé d'une grande sacoche profonde, ouverte à sa partie supérieureSome trolleys used for shopping in large shopping areas for example, are in the form of a light devil equipped with a large deep bag, open at its top
Ce chariot est stable en position verticale mais, pour le transporter dans le coffre d'une voiture, il faut le positionner à l'horizontale. Dans ce cas, tous les produits disposés dans la sacoche sont positionnés eux aussi à l'horizontale et. de plus, c'est l'ensemble du chariot qu'il faut soulever afin de le positionner dans le coffre du véhicule.This trolley is stable in the vertical position, but to transport it in the trunk of a car, it must be positioned horizontally. In this case, all the products placed in the bag are also positioned horizontally and. in addition, it is the entire trolley that must be lifted in order to position it in the trunk of the vehicle.
Il existe également des chariots, comme décrits dans le documentThere are also trolleys, as described in the document
GB-661 981 , qui sont aménagés pour accueillir deux paniers superposés. Ces paniers se désolidarisent facilement de la structure porteuse du chariot pour être transportés par l'utilisateur alors que le chariot reste in situ, c est-à-dire dans le magasinGB-661 981, which are designed to accommodate two stacked baskets. These baskets are easily detached from the carrying structure of the trolley to be transported by the user while the trolley remains in situ, that is to say in the store
La présente invention propose un chariot qui permet également de diviser les charges, c'est-à-dire qu'il est conçu pour accueillir plusieurs paniers, lesquels sont plus facilement manipulables et peuvent être posés dans le coffre d'un véhiculeThe present invention provides a trolley which also makes it possible to divide the loads, that is to say that it is designed to accommodate several baskets, which are more easily handled and can be placed in the boot of a vehicle.
Le chariot selon l'invention présente encore l'avantage de pouvoir s'intégrer lui aussi dans le coffre du véhicule afin de pouvoir être utilisé à tout moment pour transporter les paniers. Le chariot selon l'invention est constitué - d'un socle qui comprend des roulettes et au moins un pied de stabilisation, et - d'un brancard qui s'étend au-dessus desdites roulettes, à partir du socle, lequel brancard est en forme de U renversé et comporte, sur ses branches latérales, des moyens d'accrochage pour accueillir au moins deux paniers superposés, lesquels paniers sont de préférence réalisés en treillis métallique avec un cadre supérieur coopérant avec lesdits moyens d'accrochage ; la hauteur dudit brancard est supérieure à la somme des longueurs desdits paniers suspendus, et sa largeur est supérieure à la largeur desdits paniers, de façon à permettre, après avoir décroché et manipulé lesdits paniers en les plaçant par exemple dans un coffre de voiture, côte-à-côte, de poser le chariot également, en encadrant lesdits paniers avec ledit brancard pour limiter l'encombrement de l'ensemble à l'encombrement du chariot en position couchée.The trolley according to the invention also has the advantage of being able to also integrate into the trunk of the vehicle so that it can be used at any time to transport the baskets. The trolley according to the invention consists of - a base which comprises casters and at least one stabilizing foot, and - a stretcher which extends above said rollers, from the base, which stretcher is in U-shaped inverted and comprises, on its lateral branches, hooking means for accommodating at least two superimposed baskets, which baskets are preferably made of wire mesh with an upper frame cooperating with said hooking means; the height of said stretcher is greater than the sum of the lengths of said baskets suspended, and its width is greater than the width of said baskets, so as to allow, after unhooking and handling said baskets by placing them for example in a car trunk, side by side, to place the trolley also, framing said baskets with said stretcher to limit the size of the assembly to the size of the carriage in the supine position.
Ce chariot présente en fait un avantage ergonomique II permet en effet de diviser la charge en la repartissant dans plusieurs paniers-supports et sur le chariot lui-même. Lors des manipulations, le déplacement de ces charges s'effectue avec un effort moindre et, de plus, ces charges conservent la même orientation verticale lorsqu'elles sont posées dans un coffre de véhicule par exempleThis trolley actually has an ergonomic advantage. It indeed makes it possible to divide the load by distributing it in several support baskets and on the trolley itself. During handling, the displacement of these loads is effected with less effort and, moreover, these loads retain the same vertical orientation when they are placed in a vehicle trunk for example
Ce chariot est également utilisable pour le stockage puisqu'il forme, avec ses paniers suspendus, une sorte de meuble de rangement Toujours selon l'invention, le brancard est divisé en deux parties au moyen d'une traverse située sensiblement à mi-hauteur. Cette traverse constitue un renfort reliant les branches latérales et en même temps, une barre de retenue permettant notamment le transport de charges du genre bouteille de gaz ou autres ; les deux zones du brancard ainsi formées, constituent des fenêtres ou cadres dont les dimensions sont supérieures à celles des paniers.This trolley can also be used for storage since it forms, with its hanging baskets, a sort of storage cabinet. Still according to the invention, the stretcher is divided into two parts by means of a cross member located substantially at mid-height. This cross member constitutes a reinforcement connecting the lateral branches and at the same time, a retaining bar allowing in particular the transport of loads of the gas bottle or other type; the two areas of the stretcher thus formed, constitute windows or frames whose dimensions are greater than those of the baskets.
Toujours selon l'invention, le socle comporte deux côtés qui sont constitués par le prolongement inférieur des brancards, à l'équerre, et dont les extrémités, recourbées vers le bas, forment le piétement Selon une autre disposition de l'invention, les côtés du socle formés par les prolongements des branches latérales du brancard sont reliés entre eux par une grille qui fait office de fond pour le transport des charges lourdes.Still according to the invention, the base has two sides which are constituted by the lower extension of the stretchers, at right angles, and whose ends, curved downwards, form the base. According to another arrangement of the invention, the sides of the base formed by the extensions of the lateral branches of the stretcher are connected together by a grid which acts as a bottom for the transport of heavy loads.
Toujours selon l'invention, les roulettes sont montées dans des chapes qui sont soudées au niveau de chacun des angles formées par les branches latérales du brancard et les côtés du socle. Selon une autre disposition de l'invention, les moyens d'accrochage des paniers sont constitués de crochets disposés sur chaque branche du brancard, par exemple à une dizaine de centimètres sous la poignée de ce dernier, pour le panier du haut, et environ à mi-hauteur de chaque branche pour le panier du bas, selon les dimensions et formes des paniers ; ces paniers sont accrochés par un côté de leur cadre périphérique supérieur, directement en porte-à-faux, la paroi située sous ledit côté étant en appui sur les branches dudit brancard.Still according to the invention, the rollers are mounted in yokes which are welded at each of the angles formed by the lateral branches of the stretcher and the sides of the base. According to another arrangement of the invention, the means for hooking the baskets consist of hooks arranged on each branch of the stretcher, for example at about ten centimeters under the handle of the latter, for the top basket, and approximately mid-height of each branch for the bottom basket, depending on the dimensions and shapes of the baskets; these baskets are hung by one side of their upper peripheral frame, directly cantilevered, the wall located under said side being in abutment on the branches of said stretcher.
Toujours selon l'invention, les paniers sont constitués d'un cadre supérieur réalisé en fil de gros diamètre, qui est muni latéralement de poignées de préhension, lesquelles poignées sont disposées sur les petits côtés du petit cadre, lequel cadre s'accroche au brancard au moyen de ses grands côtés, lesquels grands côtés ont une longueur qui est supérieure à l'écart entre les deux branches latérales dudit brancard pour coopérer directement avec les crochets disposés sur lesdites branches.Still according to the invention, the baskets consist of an upper frame made of large diameter wire, which is provided laterally with grip handles, which handles are arranged on the short sides of the small frame, which frame hangs on the stretcher. by means of its long sides, which long sides have a length which is greater than the distance between the two lateral branches of said stretcher to cooperate directly with the hooks disposed on said branches.
Toujours selon l'invention, le chariot peut recevoir deux ou trois paniers amovibles dont les largeur et hauteur pourront être variables.Still according to the invention, the trolley can receive two or three removable baskets whose width and height may be variable.
Selon une autre disposition de l'invention, l'un au moins des paniers, par exemple le panier supérieur, comporte une housse de discrétion escamotable, laquelle housse est fixée par exemple sur le cadre et peut comporter, du côté de l'utilisateur, une poche permettant d'accueillir des clés, porte-cartes ou autres.According to another arrangement of the invention, at least one of the baskets, for example the upper basket, comprises a retractable discretion cover, which cover is fixed for example to the frame and may comprise, on the side of the user, a pocket to accommodate keys, card holders or other.
Selon une autre disposition de l'invention, le brancard peut également comporter des accessoires complémentaires, comme un support de sac à pain par exemple ou de parapluie, avec des moyens pour le retenir dans une position bien précise par rapport audit brancard.According to another arrangement of the invention, the stretcher may also include additional accessories, such as a bread bag or umbrella support, with means for retaining it in a very precise position relative to said stretcher.
L'invention sera encore détaillée à l'aide de la description suivante et des dessins annexés donnés à titre indicatif et dans lesquels :The invention will be further detailed with the aid of the following description and of the appended drawings given for information and in which:
- la figure 1 est une vue en perspective du chariot selon l'invention en position normale debout ;- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the carriage according to the invention in normal upright position;
- la figure 2 représente d'une façon plus détaillée les moyens d'accrochage des paniers ; - la figure 3 représente un panier, vu de côté, avec une housse de discrétion et une poche rapportées ,- Figure 2 shows in more detail the hooking means of the baskets; FIG. 3 represents a basket, seen from the side, with a discreet cover and an attached pocket,
- la figure 4 représente, vus de dessus, les paniers et le chariot, l'ensemble étant posé à plat, par exemple, dans un coffre de voiture ; - la figure 5 représente un chariot vu de côté, avec un équipement différent de celui représenté figure 1 ,- Figure 4 shows, seen from above, the baskets and the carriage, the assembly being placed flat, for example, in a car trunk; FIG. 5 represents a carriage seen from the side, with equipment different from that represented in FIG. 1,
- la figure 6 montre, vu de côté, le chariot posé à plat, avec deux paniers- Figure 6 shows, seen from the side, the trolley laid flat, with two baskets
Le chariot conforme à l'invention est constitué d'un socle 1 qui comprend une paire de roulettes 2 et des pieds 3 Ce socle est surmonté d'un brancard 4, lequel brancard comporte, sur ses branches latérales 5, des moyens pour accrocher des paniers de forme parallélépipédique, et en particulier un panier supérieur 6 et un panier inférieur 7The trolley according to the invention consists of a base 1 which comprises a pair of casters 2 and feet 3 This base is surmounted by a stretcher 4, which stretcher comprises, on its lateral branches 5, means for hanging baskets of parallelepiped shape, and in particular an upper basket 6 and a lower basket 7
Ces paniers 6, 7 sont de préférence des paniers réalises en fil métallique plastifié , ce revêtement permet par exemple un lavage en lave-vaisselle. Les mailles de ces paniers sont adaptées à l'usage , elles correspondent à celles que l'on rencontre sur les chariots classiques des grands magasinsThese baskets 6, 7 are preferably baskets made of plasticized metal wire, this coating allows for example washing in the dishwasher. The meshes of these baskets are suitable for use, they correspond to those found on classic shopping trolleys in department stores
Ces paniers comportent un cadre supérieur rectangulaire 16 et 17 pour les paniers 6 et 7 respectivement, sur lequel sont soudées, latéralement, c'est-à-dire sur les petits côtés, des poignées 8 de forme classique en U ou en forme d'arc de cercleThese baskets have a rectangular upper frame 16 and 17 for baskets 6 and 7 respectively, on which are welded, laterally, that is to say on the short sides, handles 8 of conventional U-shaped or shaped arc
Le brancard 4 est en forme de U renversé , sa partie supérieure 9 constitue la poignée de manoeuvre Cette poignée 9 se situe soit dans le plan des branches latérales, soit, comme montré figure 5, légèrement en retrait vers l'arrière grâce à un repli aménagé à la partie supérieure desdites branches latérales 5. Les branches latérales 5 sont munies de plusieurs crochets 10, pour permettre l'accrochage des paniers 6, 7 Ces paniers sont disposés en porte-à-faux, en appui sur les branches du brancard, sous les crochets 10. Ces crochets 10 sont au nombre de deux ou trois, sur chaque branche 5, pour accueillir selon le cas deux ou trois paniers selon leurs dimensions, ou permettre une variation de leurs positions Le socle 1 du chariot est constitué de côtés latéraux 11 pouvant être formés par le prolongement inférieur des branches 5 du brancard 4 Ces côtés 11 ont leur extrémité recourbée vers le bas pour former le piétement 3 du socle Le brancard et la structure du socle 1 c'est-à-dire les côtés 11 formant aussi piétement, peuvent être réalisés au moyen d'un seul et unique tube métallique plié de façon appropriée Ce tube métallique reçoit de préférence lui aussi un revêtement plastifiéThe stretcher 4 is in the form of an inverted U, its upper part 9 constitutes the operating handle. This handle 9 is located either in the plane of the lateral branches, or, as shown in FIG. 5, slightly set back towards the rear thanks to a fold fitted at the upper part of said lateral branches 5. The lateral branches 5 are provided with several hooks 10, to allow the hanging of the baskets 6, 7 These baskets are arranged in overhang, bearing on the branches of the stretcher, under the hooks 10. These hooks 10 are two or three in number, on each branch 5, to accommodate, as the case may be, two or three baskets according to their dimensions, or allow their positions to be varied. The base 1 of the carriage consists of lateral sides 11 which can be formed by the lower extension of the branches 5 of the stretcher 4 These sides 11 have their ends curved downward to form the base 3 of the base The stretcher and the structure of the base 1 c that is to say the sides 11 also forming a base, can be produced by means of a single metal tube folded in an appropriate manner. This metal tube also preferably receives a plastic coating.
Dans l'angle droit formé entre les côtés 11 et les branches 5, on trouve les roulettes 2 qui sont prises dans des chapes 12 soudées sur la partie inférieure des branches 5 et sur les côtés 11In the right angle formed between the sides 11 and the branches 5, there are the rollers 2 which are taken in yokes 12 welded on the lower part of the branches 5 and on the sides 11
Les côtes 1 1 sont relies entre eux par une grille 13 qui fait office de fond ou de plate-forme Cette grille 13 permet de poser des charges diverses sur le chariot et en particulier des charges lourdes A mi-hauteur du brancard 4, on trouve une traverse 15 qui relie et renforce les branches 5 et qui permet aussi de servir d'appui pour le transport de charges comme par exemple une bouteille de gazThe ribs 11 are connected to each other by a grid 13 which acts as a bottom or platform. This grid 13 allows various loads to be placed on the carriage and in particular heavy loads. Halfway up the stretcher 4, there are a cross member 15 which connects and reinforces the branches 5 and which also makes it possible to serve as a support for the transport of loads such as for example a gas cylinder
La figure 4 montre les relations qui existent entre les dimensions du brancard 4 et celles des paniers 6 et 7 Le brancard 4 et en particulier ses branches latérales 5 ont une longueur Hb qui est supérieure à la somme des longueurs Lp des grands côtés des paniers 6 et 7, pour pouvoir encadrer lesdits paniers. En fait, cette longueur (ou hauteur) Hb est prise entre la poignée 9 et la plateforme 13 La largeur Lb du brancard 4 correspond sensiblement à la longueurFIG. 4 shows the relationships which exist between the dimensions of the stretcher 4 and those of the baskets 6 and 7 The stretcher 4 and in particular its lateral branches 5 have a length Hb which is greater than the sum of the lengths Lp of the long sides of the baskets 6 and 7, in order to be able to frame said baskets. In fact, this length (or height) Hb is taken between the handle 9 and the platform 13 The width Lb of the stretcher 4 corresponds substantially to the length
Lp du cadre supérieur 16, 17, de chaque panier 6 et 7Lp of upper frame 16, 17, of each basket 6 and 7
En fait, la longueur Lp des cadres 16 et 17 est légèrement supérieure à la largeur Lb du brancard 4 pour permettre un accrochage facile des paniers 6 et 7 sur les crochets 10. Les paniers 6 et 7 sont décrochables séparément ce qui permet de diviser la charge du chariot et de faciliter la manipulation de chacun d'eux. De plus, après avoir ôté les paniers 6 et 7 en les plaçant côte-à- côte, alignés dans le sens de leur longueur dans le coffre d'une voiture par exemple, comme représenté figure 4 et aussi figure 6, le chariot se range à plat dans ledit coffre en étant positionné de telle sorte que le brancard 4 encadre lesdits paniers et stabilise l'ensemble.In fact, the length Lp of the frames 16 and 17 is slightly greater than the width Lb of the stretcher 4 to allow easy attachment of the baskets 6 and 7 on the hooks 10. The baskets 6 and 7 are detachable separately which makes it possible to divide the load of the cart and to facilitate the handling of each of them. In addition, after removing the baskets 6 and 7 by placing them side by side, aligned in the direction of their length in the trunk of a car for example, as shown in Figure 4 and also Figure 6, the trolley is stored flat in said trunk while being positioned so that the stretcher 4 frames said baskets and stabilizes the assembly.
Les paniers 6 et 7 ont en fait la même longueur. Leur largeur peut être sensiblement différente pour des raisons de commodité ; le panier supérieur 6 peut être moins large que le panier inférieur 7 afin de faciliter par exemple l'accès à ce dernier pour son chargement. La traverse 15 qui relie les branches 5, est disposée à mi-hauteur du brancard. Elle s'interpose, comme représentée figure 4, entre les paniers 6 et 7 lorsque ces derniers sont posés à plat dans le coffre d'une voiture par exemple.Baskets 6 and 7 are actually the same length. Their width may be significantly different for reasons of convenience; the upper basket 6 can be narrower than the lower basket 7 in order to facilitate, for example, access to the latter for loading. The crosspiece 15 which connects the branches 5, is disposed at mid-height of the stretcher. It is interposed, as shown in Figure 4, between the baskets 6 and 7 when the latter are placed flat in the trunk of a car for example.
La hauteur de chaque panier est par exemple de l'ordre du tiers de la hauteur du brancard 4. Le panier supérieur peut avoir une hauteur plus faible afin d'accroître la capacité de chargement du panier inférieur, dans le sens de la hauteur.The height of each basket is for example of the order of a third of the height of the stretcher 4. The upper basket may have a lower height in order to increase the loading capacity of the lower basket, in the height direction.
Les crochets 10 qui servent à la suspension du panier supérieur 6 sont disposés à une dizaine de centimètres sous le niveau de la poignée 9.The hooks 10 which serve for the suspension of the upper basket 6 are arranged about ten centimeters below the level of the handle 9.
Les crochets 10 qui servent à la suspension du panier inférieur 7 sont disposés à une hauteur, par rapport au socle 1 , qui est sensiblement supérieure à la hauteur dudit panier de sorte qu'un espace est maintenu entre ledit panier 7 et la grille 13 dudit socle. La figure 3 représente un panier muni d'une housse 20 dite housse de discrétion, qui permet de couvrir et de protéger les produits disposés dans le panier supérieur. Une housse similaire peut être disposée sur le panier inférieur.The hooks 10 which serve for the suspension of the lower basket 7 are arranged at a height, relative to the base 1, which is substantially greater than the height of said basket so that a space is maintained between said basket 7 and the grid 13 of said basement. FIG. 3 represents a basket provided with a cover 20 called discretion cover, which makes it possible to cover and protect the products placed in the upper basket. A similar cover can be placed on the lower basket.
Cette housse 20 est fixée par exemple sur le cadre 16, sur son grand côté 21 , c'est-à-dire celui qui est fixé au crochet 10.This cover 20 is fixed for example on the frame 16, on its long side 21, that is to say the one which is fixed to the hook 10.
Cette housse 20 réalisée en tissu imperméable ou non, peut comporter, du côté de l'utilisateur, devant la face 22 du panier supérieur 6, une poche 23 à fermeture ou non, susceptible d'accueillir des clés, porte-cartes ou autres.This cover 20 made of waterproof fabric or not, may include, on the side of the user, in front of the face 22 of the upper basket 6, a pocket 23 whether or not closed, capable of accommodating keys, card holders or the like.
La figure 5 montre un chariot équipé de trois paniers 6, 7 et 26 , le panier supérieur 26 est nettement moins haut que les deux autres et il est également destiné à être rangé à part dans le coffre d'une voitureFigure 5 shows a cart equipped with three baskets 6, 7 and 26, the upper basket 26 is significantly lower than the other two and it is also intended to be stored separately in the trunk of a car
Toujours figure 5, le chariot est muni d'équipements complémentaires comme par exemple un crochet 27 pouvant servir de support pour un sac, un parapluie ou autre Ce crochet 27 est solidaire d'un arceau 28 qui s'étend, sous la poignée 9, entre les branches latérales 5 du brancard, derrière ce dernierStill in FIG. 5, the carriage is provided with additional equipment such as for example a hook 27 which can serve as a support for a bag, an umbrella or the like. This hook 27 is integral with a hoop 28 which extends, under the handle 9, between the side arms 5 of the stretcher, behind the latter
A mi-hauteur du brancard, un arceau complémentaire 29 peut servir de guide et d'organe de retenue pour maintenir un parapluie accroché par exemple, dans une position constante, et en particulier dans un plan qui est sensiblement parallèle à celui des branches latérales du brancard Cet arceau 29 est disposé sous l'arceau 28, à l'arrière du brancard également Halfway up the stretcher, a complementary hoop 29 can serve as a guide and retaining member to hold an umbrella hooked, for example, in a constant position, and in particular in a plane which is substantially parallel to that of the lateral branches of the stretcher This hoop 29 is disposed under the hoop 28, also behind the stretcher
