Abstract

The invention relates to an asymmetrical clip device including one clip arm which is non-pivotably attached to the hanger bar. The device includes a non-pivoted clip arm (1) provided with side bends (2) and large spring-guiding ribs (3) in the upper part of the clip arm, which are in turn provided with a deep horizontal-U-shaped recess (5) that extends from one side to the other of the non-pivoted clip arm (1) at the point at which it is anchored to the hanger bar (6) so as to be fitted to the front of the horizontal rib (7) of the hanger bar and to abut against the vertical rib (8) of said bar. Consequently, the ends of the side bends (9) of the pivoted clip arm (10) can pivot on the ends of the side bends (2) of the non-pivoted arm (1) immediately above the horizontal rib (7), while the clip arm (1) cannot pivot on the bar. The device can be used to reduce the overall thickness of the clip arms of a clip hanger for trousers or skirts.

Description

Dispositif de pince asymétrique pour cintre. Les dispositifs de cintre à pinces pour pantalons ou jupes, comportant des pinces disposées transversalement sur une barre munie d'un crochet, présentent tous l'inconvénient d'avoir un encombrement important au niveau des pinces qui fonctionnent en bras de levier sur la barre. Etant donné que chaque pince est dotée de deux bras identiques qui pivotent en appui de part et d'autre de la barre, au niveau d'une échancrure peu profonde aménagée sur les replis latéraux des bras de pince, l'épaisseur hors tout d'un tel cintre correspond à l'épaisseur de la barre du cintre additionnées de l'épaisseur de chaque bras de pince au niveau de son point de fixation sur la barre. Il en résulte que la densité des vêtements que l'on place sur les portants en magasin, dans les cartons d'emballage, sur les chaînes de confection et dans les camions spécialement équipés pour le transport de vêtements sur cintres, n'est pas optimisé, et il en découle des surcoûts importants en emballage et en transport. La présente invention se propose de réduire l'épaisseur hors tout de ce type de cintre. Le dispositif objet de l'invention comporte une pince asymétrique dont le bras de pince non pivotant est muni de prolongements latéraux et de nervures de guidage du ressort, largement dimensionnés et profondément échancrés au niveau du point d'ancrage sur la barre pour maintenir la face arrière dudit bras de pince dans le plan vertical et dépassant le moins possible du plan frontal de la partie centrale de la barre de cintre. Asymmetrical clamp device for hanger. The hanger devices with clips for trousers or skirts, comprising clamps arranged transversely on a bar provided with a hook, all have the disadvantage of having a large size at the clamps which operate as a lever arm on the bar. Since each clamp is provided with two identical arms which pivot in support on both sides of the bar, at a shallow notch arranged on the lateral folds of the clamp arms, the overall thickness of such a hanger corresponds to the thickness of the hanger bar plus the thickness of each clamp arm at its point of attachment to the bar. As a result, the density of the clothing that is placed on the in-store racks, in the packaging boxes, on the clothing lines and in the trucks specially equipped for the transport of clothes on hangers, is not optimized. and this results in significant additional costs in packaging and transport. The present invention proposes to reduce the overall thickness of this type of hanger. The device of the invention comprises an asymmetrical clamp whose non-pivoting clamp arm is provided with lateral extensions and spring guide ribs, widely dimensioned and deeply indented at the anchor point on the bar to maintain the face rear of said clamp arm in the vertical plane and extending as far as possible from the frontal plane of the central portion of the hanger bar.
L'épaisseur hors tout du cintre à pince correspond alors à l'épaisseur de la barre, additionnée de l'épaisseur du bras de pince pivotant au niveau de son point de fixation sur la barre, et additionné de l'épaisseur de matière située entre la face arrière du bras de pince non pivotant et l'ouverture profondément échancrée au niveau du point d'ancrage sur la barre. Compte tenu que les cintres à pinces existant sur le marché ont habituellement une barre de cintre de même épaisseur que l'épaisseur de chaque bras de pince au niveau de leur fixation sur la barre, le dispositif selon l'invention permet de réduire de plus de 35 % l'encombrement en épaisseur des cintres à pinces. L'invention sera illustrée par les dessins annexés : - la figure 1 représente en perspective une pince selon l'invention.The overall thickness of the clip hanger then corresponds to the thickness of the bar, plus the thickness of the pivoting clamp arm at its point of contact. fixing on the bar, and added the thickness of material between the rear face of the non-pivoting clamp arm and the deeply indented opening at the anchor point on the bar. Given that the clamps hangers existing on the market usually have a hanger bar of the same thickness as the thickness of each clamp arm at their attachment to the bar, the device according to the invention can reduce more than 35% thickness in thickness of the hangers. The invention will be illustrated by the accompanying drawings: - Figure 1 shows in perspective a clamp according to the invention.
- la figure 2 représente en perspective la face intérieure du bras de pince non pivotant.- Figure 2 shows in perspective the inner face of the non-pivoting clamp arm.
- la figure 3 représente une vue de profil d'une pince assemblée sur l'extrémité asymétrique de la barre selon l'invention. En référence à ces dessins :- Figure 3 shows a side view of a collet assembled on the asymmetrical end of the bar according to the invention. With reference to these drawings:
Selon la figure 1, le dispositif comporte, d'une part, le bras de pince (1) muni de replis latéraux (2) et de nervures de guidage du ressort (3) qui sont perpendiculaires à la face arrière (4) du bras de pince, et qui sont largement dimensionnés dans la partie supérieure pour permettre d'avoir une ouverture (5) profondément échancrée en forme de U couché, traversant le bras de pince au niveau de son point d'ancrage sur la barre de cintre (6). Le bras de pince (1) s'ajuste frontalement sur la nervure horizontale (7) et vient en butée sur la nervure verticale (8) de ladite barre de cintre. Les extrémités (9) des replis latéraux du bras de pince pivotant (10) viennent en appui et pivotent sur les extrémités des replis latéraux (2) du bras de pince (1) lors de l'ouverture de la pince, tandis que le bras de pince (1) ne peut pas pivoter sur la barre de cintre (6), du fait de son ajustage sur le profil de la nervure horizontale (7) et de la nervure verticale (8) de la barre de cintre.According to Figure 1, the device comprises, on the one hand, the clamp arm (1) provided with lateral folds (2) and guide ribs of the spring (3) which are perpendicular to the rear face (4) of the arm pliers, and which are largely dimensioned in the upper part to allow to have an opening (5) deep indented U-shaped lying, passing through the clamp arm at its anchor point on the hanger bar (6). ). The gripper arm (1) adjusts frontally to the horizontal rib (7) and abuts the vertical rib (8) of said hanger bar. The ends (9) of the lateral folds of the pivoting clamp arm (10) abut and pivot on the ends of the lateral folds (2) of the clamp arm (1) when opening the clamp, while the arm clamp (1) can not rotate on the hanger bar (6) due to its fitting on the profile of the horizontal rib (7) and the vertical rib (8) of the hanger bar.
Selon la figure 2, on voit le bras de pince non pivotant (1) équipé de replis latéraux (2) et de nervures de guidage du ressort (3) , largement dimensionnés dans la partie supérieure. Les replis latéraux (2) et les nervures (3) comportent une ouverture (5) d'une profondeur minimale des deux tiers de la largeur de la nervure horizontale (7) de la barre de cintre, perpendiculaire à la face arrière (4) du bras de pince. Des nervures horizontales (11) et (12) relient les replis latéraux (2) et les nervures de guidage du ressort (3) juste au dessus de l'ouverture (5) pour empêcher Fécartement de l'extrémité des replis latéraux (2) .According to Figure 2, we see the non-pivoting clamp arm (1) equipped with lateral folds (2) and guide ribs of the spring (3), widely dimensioned in the upper part. The side folds (2) and the ribs (3) have an opening (5) at least two-thirds the width of the horizontal rib (7) of the hanger bar, perpendicular to the rear face (4) of the clamp arm. Horizontal ribs (11) and (12) connect the lateral folds (2) and the guide ribs of the spring (3) just above the opening (5) to prevent separation of the end of the lateral folds (2) .
Sur la figure 3, on remarque le bras de pince non pivotant (1) placé frontalement sur la barre de cintre (6) au niveau de sont point d'ancrage sur la nervure horizontale (7) de la barre de cintre, et venant en butée dans sa partie inférieure sur la nervure verticale (8) de ladite barre. Le positionnement très avancé du bras de pince (1) sur la barre de cintre (8) est rendu possible par la profondeur de l'ouverture (5) aménagée sur les replis latéraux (2) et les nervures (3). La rigidité du bras de pince est obtenue par le surdimensionnement des replis latéraux dans la partie supérieure du bras de pince et par le positionnement avancé du bras de pince sur la barre. Lors du pincement des extrémités supérieures des deux bras de pince pour écarter les patins qui retiennent le vêtement, le bras de pince non pivotant reste fermement maintenue dans le plan perpendiculaire à la nervure horizontale (7) de la barre, en dépassant le moins possible du plan frontal de la partie centrale de la barre de cintre, du fait que le profil de l'ouverture (5) est parfaitement ajusté sur le profil de la nervure horizontale (7) de la barre de cintre. FIG. 3 shows the non-pivoting clamp arm (1) positioned frontally on the hanger bar (6) at its anchoring point on the horizontal rib (7) of the hanger bar, and coming into abutment in its lower part on the vertical rib (8) of said bar. The very advanced positioning of the clamp arm (1) on the hanger bar (8) is made possible by the depth of the opening (5) arranged on the lateral folds (2) and the ribs (3). The rigidity of the clamp arm is achieved by over-sizing of the side folds in the upper part of the clamp arm and by the advanced positioning of the clamp arm on the bar. When pinching the upper ends of the two gripper arms to spread the pads that hold the garment, the non-pivoting gripper arm remains firmly in the plane perpendicular to the horizontal rib (7) of the bar, exceeding as little as possible frontal plane of the central part of the hanger bar, because the profile of the opening (5) is perfectly fitted to the profile of the horizontal rib (7) of the hanger bar.
