Definitions
- Container such as luggage, a case or the like made of rigid material, having external faces connected according to a spheroidal volume
- the present invention relates to a rigid container such as luggage or a case suitable for one or more objects to be particularly well protected, in particular a case for a musical instrument.
- the containers currently known in this field have practically flat faces, except some which may be slightly curved. These faces are connected in a very stiff way, that is to say that these faces are joined by a very small connecting arc which, in fact, is rather a broken angle, avoiding the injurious nature of a sharp edge.
- the present invention proposes a new solution which makes it possible to produce rigid containers which are extremely resistant and all the dangerous stresses • crushing, falls, shocks, etc.
- the invention relates to a container such as luggage, a case comprising a wedging for at least one object, or the like, comprising two shells articulated by one of their edges between a position called “opening” in which the free edges opposite to the previous ones are spaced from one another and give access to the interior of the container and a so-called “closed” position in which the free edges are close together, which edges bear rabbets and extend along wide complementary curves two by two, the shells which are monobloc and substantially rigid being formed from a plastic material such as a synthetic material, a composite material and the like, characterized in that that said container is part of a virtual prismatic volume and three of its outer faces, namely a front face, a lateral face and a large face, are connected without any solution of continuity, to each of the virtual angles of its periphery, by curved surfaces forming together, on the outside of the container, a spheroid dome recessed with respect to the corresponding angle of the circumscribed virtual volume According to
- connection which extends according to an arc whose orientation is the opposite of that of the previous curved edges, this single edge extending along the entire outer periphery of the spheroidal dome
- the spheroidal domes are irregular, namely that they have a non-circular cross section
- the large face of at least one of the shells is substantially flat and is connected to the curved surfaces extending those of spheroidal domes and those extending from the front and side faces
- the large face of at least one of the shells is curved and is connected to the curved surfaces extending those of spheroidal domes and to those extending the front faces and the lateral faces
- the curved hull has supports whose upper parts are all in the same plane
- At least one of the shells has a reinforcement thickness
- Figure 1 is a lematic perspective view of a container according to the invention, consisting of a ⁇ alise shown in the closed position.
- Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of the container of Figure 1, in the open position.
- Figure 3 is a schematic perspective view with partial sections of a container according to the invention, according to a variant providing reinforcements.
- Figure 4 is a schematic perspective view of a container according to the invention which has a substantially parallelepipedal central part and two end bulges, to form a case whose shapes are adapted to what it must contain.
- Figure 5 is a schematic view of part of a container according to the invention, and giving an example of internal wedges intended for the maintenance and protection of one or more objects.
- Figure 6 is a schematic elevational view of a container according to the invention whose edges have a particular configuration.
- Figures 7 and 8 are respectively plan and elevation views of a container according to the invention which has a general non-parallelepiped shape adapted to the constitution of a cello.
- Figure 9 is a schematic view of a container according to the invention which comprises a central body and two opposite lids.
- Figure 10 is a schematic view of a container according to the invention adapted to be carried on the back.
- Figure 11 is a schematic view of a container according to the invention provided with rollers in order to be able to roll on the ground and whose asymmetrical shapes give the container a larger capacity at the bottom, in order to lower the center of gravity.
- FIG. 1 and 2 we see a container according to the invention produced in the form of a suitcase having a body 1 and a cover 2 hinged to each other by hinges 3.
- the free edges body 1 and cover 2 are provided with rebates of any known type
- the container can no longer be made up of two parts, body and circle. but in three parts: a central part to which the coips are articulated on one side and the cover on the other, although in this case it is rather two opposite covers, one playing the role of body when only the other is open and vice versa.
- the rebates of the edges of the hulls in presence can also be produced separately, in particular from metal profiles, which can facilitate the manufacture of the hulls by molding, and by eliminating the problems of undercut.
- V which, here, is parallelepipedic given the regular shape of the container, but we will see below that the virtual ⁇ olume may not be regular parallelepipedic, the important thing being the curved shapes of the faces of the container, especially in line with the trihedra of the virtual volume. Indeed, at the place of the container, whether it is the body 1 or the cover 2.
- each of these domes or more precisely each of these face connection zones, is located in the extension, without a solution of continuity, of the faces themselves and it is observed that all the edges have disappeared, in particular the vertical edges which usually separate the front and side faces.
- domes 4 to 11 are such that each of them behaves like a vault because it distributes on the connected faces the stresses which it undergoes, pressure or shock But also, because of the curves according to which the plane of joint is carried out in the closed position of the container, a synergy exists between the curves of the joint plane and the curves of the shells.
- the faces 12 and 13 extend in substantially perpendicular planes, which means that the connecting edge 16 runs in an arc of 90 °.
- the lateral face 17 is symmetrical with the lateral face 13 with respect to the front face 12 which is adjacent to both.
- the positive curved edges are uneven because their arc is in proportion to the length of the face.
- the curved edges may be equal or different.
- the arrows may be unequal
- the large faces may be more or less curved and one or both of them may even have a more or less extensive flat central part which may be reduce, in some cases, to a simple flat, intended to ensure the stability of the container when it is placed on a flat surface by the large corresponding face
- the rebates of the free edges of the cover 2 must cooperate closely with the rebates of the free edges of the body 1, so that the free edges of the cover 2 are exactly complementary to those of the body 1
- the containers produced have different bodies and lids
- the body and the lid of the same container can be equal and symmetrical or be unequal, the most frequent case being that of a fairly deep body and a flatter lid
- the curves of the hulls, and in particular their parts called “spheroidal domes" can be equal or unequal.
- dome could lead to a misinterpretation, since most architectural domes are regular, namely that they have a circular cross section of continuously variable diameter. This is not the case here because the spheroidal domes being relatively very flat and connecting without solution of continuity with the faces of the shells, their cross section is generally neither circular nor regular.
- the high resistance of the closed container comes from the extreme rigidity of the shells. taking into account the thickness of their constituent material.
- the invention also makes it possible to provide variable thicknesses in places, thereby strengthening the most vulnerable places, without overloading the assembly.
- the thickness of the shells can be varied very gradually so as not to create sharp reliefs, but reinforcement can also be judiciously arranged, as seen in an example in FIG. 3.
- extra thicknesses are provided inside the shells, arranged in cords.
- a peripheral cord 25 follows the rebate of the free edge of the body 1 and a cord 26 follows the rebate of the free edge of the cover 2, these two cords being exactly parallel to each other when the cover 2 is folded down in the iron position size on the body 1. They thus contribute to the rigidity and the solidity of the container at one of its most vulnerable places, that is to say at the junction line of the free edges of the body 1 and of the cover. 2.
- the cord 27 crosses the cords 25 and 26 and, inside the front face 12, it forms a curve whose orientation is opposite to that of the cords 25 and 26 which follow the free edge of the body 1 and of the cover 2, these two opposite curves determining between them a relatively restricted area 28 in the form of a biconvex lens.
- the arrangement of the reinforcements according to a network makes it possible to give the latter a tightness coordinated with parts which are inherently vulnerable, and in particular locks, joints, carriers and the like
- FIG. 1 and 2 we see a carrying handle 29 and in Figure 3, there is shown the two anchor points 29a and 29b of this handle 29 whose location is determined by the physical and geometric characteristics of the container These anchoring points being located where they must be, the arrangement of the reinforcement cords 25, 26 and 27 is deliberately designed to reinforce the container where the carrying effort must be exerted. that the handle 29 is located in the zone 28 entirely surrounded by reinforcements and that the anchoring points 29a and 29b are in the immediate vicinity of the crossings of the cords 25-26 and 27
- FIG. 4 we see a container according to the invention which is a case for an object and which has a shape adapted to that of said object
- This container could be, for example, a case 30 for an electric guitar (not shown) having at one end a large body, in the center a flat handle and at the other end a bulky head
- the case 30 thus has a convex part 31 conforming to what has already been decnt, a flat central part 32 and a second convex part 33
- the container has two ends 31 and 33 conforming to those of FIGS. 1 to 3, but separated here by the flat part 32
- FIG. 5 shows that the invention makes it possible to produce cases the interior of which is provided with internal wedges 34 Only the body 35 of the case 30 is shown, and not the cover, afnrrJe simplify the drawing but we understand that the cover can also carry wedges, for example synthetic foam, complementary to those 34 of the body 35, so that the object (here a guitar) is immobilized and held loosely when the cover is in closed position
- the case 30, like the container of Figures 1 to 3, has curved free edges, provided with rebates and similar to those of Figures 1 to 3
- the flat part 32 having a very low height, the large central curve of the front end face 36 has a very small arrow and a long cord.
- the curve of the free edges is necessarily fairly flat, that is to say that their arrow is small relative to their cord
- the co ⁇ esponding arc of a circle is so flat that one is at the limit of the straight line, which is contrary to the invention.
- FIG. 6 it can be seen that the we can reconcile a low height of the container and the presence of curved edges.
- the container 40 of this figure is relatively flat, which could be the case with a document holder, and its body 41 has a large flat lower face 42, to ensure the stability of the container 40 when it is placed on a plane.
- PI such as a table and its cover 43 is slightly curved.
- the volume of the case 50 can be analyzed as being a container similar to that of FIGS. 1 to 3, with which an oblong axial upper part is combined This shows that a container according to the invention can have an external bulge (or more), corresponding to an internal housing.
- the container comprises a wide part 51 formed of a body 52 and a cover 53, to contain the cello body, as well as a central part 54 in clear relief relative to the top of the cover 53, this central part.
- convex externally is concave internally to form a housing in which the tailpiece, the bridge, the neck, the neck and the volute of the cello are placed, which we know are both very prominent in relation to the body and very fragile
- the length of this set is much greater than that of the cello body, so that the part 54 clearly exceeds the two fi actions 55a and 55b of the almost virtual lateial face of the wide part 51
- FIG. 8 clearly shows that the body 52 on the one hand and the cover 53 on the other hand are each in one piece and extend from the lateral face 56 of the wide part 51 to the end of the part central 54 which forms a small lateial face 57
- connection curve 62 is rehee by the connection curve 62 to another curve 63 of the same orientation which is located only on the face of the central part 54 and which is extended by a connection curve 64 and a curve 65 of the small lateral face 57
- the case 50 does indeed have all the characteristics of the invention, as does the container in FIGS. 1 to 3
- the container has no angles or sharp edges and that, with respect to a circumscribed prismatic virtual volume (not shown), the parts of the container situated at the right angles to this virtual volume are clearly set back from these angles.
- the curvature of the large face of the lid contributes greatly to the solidity of the container.
- this same bulge prevents any stability of a container container, whether it is commonplace or in accordance with the invention, and it is then possible to provide, as said above , that this large face is flat or that it has a central flat, the important thing being that this flat face or this flat is connected without discontinuity to the curves and to the spheroidal domes
- fig. 9 shows a container 70 whose cover 71 is bomb but which has four supports 72 molded with the cover 71, located closer to the center than the spheroidal domes and the vertices of which, located higher than the most prominent part of the cover 71, are all aligned in the same plane P2
- the supports 72 are hollow in order to present a thickness of compatible material ec well known necessities of molding Here, they have a section cn culau e andSchntent U ⁇ L fairly wide bearing surface
- the container 70 has a central body 73 which is constituted by a strip pretends on itself, like a ring, but with the desired contour for the container.
- This body 73 may or may not have a transverse bottom (not visible in the drawing )
- the two edges of the body 73 have free boxes provided with sheets, exactly like the body of the containers already described above, but here, in addition to the cover 71, the container has a second cover 74 which is "mirrored" by relative to the cover 71, that is to say that the two covers 71 and 74 are articulated on the same side of the body 73, it being understood that in practice the two covers could be articulated at different sides
- the two free edges of the body 73 have curves whose aies are oriented in oppxrsition two by two, so that in fact the two covers 71 and 74 are identical and come from the same shell, leaving the same mold Whatever the variant envisaged, the cover must be secured to the body when the container is in the closed position and there is a very large number of locks and other devices for securely joining the body and the cover
- a container according to the invention having curved edges, it turns out that the closing members had to be oriented according to the tangent to the arc of the curved edge considered and not by reference to the planes of the large faces of the body and of the cover In FIGS.
- quadrangular segments (99) are shown very schematically and it can be seen that their sides are respectively parallel and perpendicular to the tangent to the arc along which the curve extends of the free edge
- a container 80 comprises a body 81 whose face (or “bottom”) has a concave and not convex curvature, whereas cover 82 is convex like all those described above
- This curvature is here designed so that the container can be carried on a man's back, by means of shoulder straps 83, by maximizing the contact surface to distribute the load over the entire surface of the back, which is obviously less painful than if the container had a flat or convex bottom.
- the body 81 just like the cover 82 has curves and spheroidal domes
- This figure also illustrates the possibility of the invention of producing asymmetrical containers, due to the differences in curvatures and inequalities between the spheroidal domes of the body 81 and of the cover 82
- FIG. 1 there is also the asymmetry of a container 90 having a body 91 and a cover 92, the body 91 being provided with rollers 93 and a pull handle 94, which allows, as is known in itself, to tow the container by rolling it on the rollers 93.
- the dissymmetry makes it possible to give the container a volume much greater in the lower part than that of the upper part, which lowers the center of gravity G En " in addition, the pull handle 94 is positioned so that its points of application of the pulling force to the container are at a mte ⁇ nedian level between the bottom 95 of the container and its top 96 In this figure 1 1, these points of force applications are at a distance D from the summit 96 The user therefore benefits from a significant reduction, on the one hand due to the lowering of the center of gravity G and, on the other hand, from the lowering of the points of application of the traction force.
- the traction handle 94 can be movable so as to be able to occupy an erasing position and, as shown, an active position.
