Description

DISPOSITIF DE DÉCOUPE AUTOMATISÉE DE PAINS AUTOMATED BREAD CUTTING DEVICE
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de découpe automatisée de pains en tranches. Des dispositifs de découpe automatisée de pains en tranches sont bien connus. On les rencontre dans la plupart des boulangeries artisanales et également en grandes surfaces. Ces dispositifs, ou trancheuses automatiques de pains fonctionnent selon le principe suivant: L'utilisateur du dispositif y introduit le pain qu'il désire couper en tranches en le plaçant sur une première table de chargement. Cette table est traditionnellement disposée entre un poussoir du pain et au moins un premier ensemble de lames de découpe du pain, chaque ensemble étant agencé sensiblement orthogonalement à ladite première table. L'utilisateur met ensuite le dispositif en marche en enclenchant l'interrupteur prévu à cet effet, ce qui entraîne la mise en mouvement oscillant des lames et en mouvement de translation du poussoir transversalement à la direction des lames. Le pain est dès lors déplacé par le poussoir en direction des lames et la découpe commence lorsqu'il entre en contact avec ces dernières. L'utilisateur récupère son pain découpé en tranches sur une seconde table de déchargement du côté des lames opposé à celui où est agencée la première table de chargement du pain dans le dispositif. Il ne reste plus alors à cet utilisateur qu'à emballer le pain découpé.The present invention relates to an automated cutting device sliced breads. Automated cutting devices for sliced breads are well known. They are found in most bakeries and also in supermarkets. These devices, or automatic bread slicers operate according to the following principle: The user of the device introduces the bread he wants to slice by placing it on a first loading table. This table is traditionally arranged between a bread pusher and at least a first set of bread cutting blades, each set being arranged substantially orthogonal to said first table. The user then starts the device by engaging the switch provided for this purpose, which causes the oscillating movement of the blades and translational movement of the pusher transversely to the direction of the blades. The bread is then moved by the pusher towards the blades and cutting begins when it comes into contact with them. The user retrieves his sliced bread on a second unloading table on the blade side opposite the one where the first bread loading table is arranged in the device. This user then only has to pack the cut bread.
Dans un tel dispositif, généralement, chaque ensemble de lames de découpe du pain est disposé dans un cadre. En pratique, deux tels cadres sont présents parallèlement l'un à l'autre dans le dispositif et sont lors de la découpe d'un pain animés d'un mouvement en sens opposé de sorte à assurer une qualité de découpe optimale du pain. A cette fin, un moteur ainsi qu'un moyen de conversion du mouvement généré par ce moteur en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames avec son cadre sont prévus dans le dispositif.In such a device, generally, each set of bread cutting blades is arranged in a frame. In practice, two such frames are present parallel to each other in the device and are when cutting a moving bread with a movement in the opposite direction so as to ensure optimal cutting quality of the bread. To this end, a motor as well as a motion conversion means generated by this motor in an oscillating movement of each set of blades with its frame are provided in the device.
Dans les dispositifs selon l'état de la technique, le moteur ainsi que le moyen de conversion dont question sont connectés de manière rigide à la carcasse du dispositif. Une telle configuration présente cependant plusieurs problèmes.In the devices according to the state of the art, the motor as well as the conversion means in question are rigidly connected to the carcass of the device. Such a configuration, however, has several problems.
Tout d'abord, le fait que le moteur et le moyen de conversion de son mouvement en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames soient connectés de manière rigide à la carcasse du dispositif a pour effet que les vibrations engendrées par le moteur, ledit moyen de conversion ainsi que chaque ensemble de lames mis en mouvement sont transmises à la carcasse du dispositif, ce qui provoque un inconfort à la fois acoustique et tactile pour l'utilisateur.Firstly, the fact that the motor and the means of converting its movement into an oscillating movement of each set of blades are rigidly connected to the carcass of the device has the effect that the vibrations generated by the motor, the said means conversion and each set of moving blades are transmitted to the carcass of the device, causing discomfort both acoustic and tactile for the user.
Ensuite, l'emplacement et la connexion de chaque type de moteur pouvant être utilisé dans un tel dispositif doit être adapté à la carcasse dans laquelle il doit être disposé. En particulier, des moyens de connexion spécifiques doivent être prévus pour chaque carcasse différente.Then, the location and connection of each type of engine that can be used in such a device must be adapted to the carcass in which it must be arranged. In particular, specific connection means must be provided for each different carcass.
La présente invention résout ces problèmes en proposant un dispositif de découpe automatisée d'un pain en tranches, comprenant une carcasse, une première table de chargement dans le dispositif d'un pain à découper et une seconde table de déchargement du dispositif du pain découpé, au moins un premier ensemble de lames de découpe du pain, sensiblement parallèles les unes aux autres, chaque ensemble étant agencé sensiblement orthogonalement à la première table et entre les première et seconde tables, un poussoir agencé pour être déplacé sensiblement parallèlement à la première table, entre une première position dans laquelle un pain peut être chargé dans le dispositif et une seconde position adjacente audit premier ensemble des lames, dans laquelle le pain découpé peut être déchargé du dispositif, un moyen de déplacement du poussoir entre ces deux positions, un moteur et un moyen de conversion du mouvement généré par le moteur en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames, ce dispositif étant caractérisé par le fait que le moteur et le moyen de conversion sont compris dans un module et en ce que ce module est connecté à la carcasse du dispositif par un moyen de connexion souple agencé pour isoler cette carcasse des vibrations engendrées par lesdits moteur et moyen de conversion.The present invention solves these problems by providing a device for automatically cutting a sliced bread, comprising a carcass, a first loading table in the device of a bread to be cut and a second unloading table of the device of the cut bread, at least a first set of bread cutting blades, substantially parallel to each other, each set being arranged substantially orthogonal to the first table and between the first and second tables, a pusher arranged to be moved substantially parallel to the first table, between a first position in which a bread can be loaded into the device and a second position adjacent to said first set of blades, wherein the cut bread can be discharged from the device, a means of movement of the pusher between these two positions, a motor and a means of converting the motion generated by the motor into an oscillating movement of each set of blades, this device being characterized in that the motor and the conversion means are included in a module and in that this module is connected to the carcass of the device by a flexible connection means arranged to isolate the carcass vibrations generated by said motor and conversion means.
Grâce au fait que le moteur et le moyen de conversion du mouvement qu'il génère en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames sont connectés à la carcasse du dispositif par un moyen de connexion souple, cette dernière est isolée des vibrations engendrées par lesdits moteur et moyen de conversion, ce qui élimine pour l'utilisateur d'un tel dispositif le problème d'inconfort acoustique et tactile susmentionné de même que celui de devoir adapter l'emplacement et la connexion de chaque type de moteur pouvant être utilisé dans un tel dispositif à la carcasse dans laquelle il doit être disposé, dès lors que le module selon l'invention peut être standard et connecté à chaque carcasse de la même manière. Une telle carcasse ne subissant plus les vibrations engendrées par le moteur et ledit moyen de conversion, sa structure peut également être plus légère.Thanks to the fact that the motor and the means for converting the movement it generates into an oscillating movement of each set of blades are connected to the carcass of the device by a flexible connection means, the latter is isolated from the vibrations generated by said motor. and converting means, which eliminates for the user of such a device the aforementioned problem of acoustic and tactile discomfort as well as that of having to adapt the location and the connection of each type of engine which can be used in such a device. device to the carcass in which it must be arranged, since the module according to the invention can be standard and connected to each carcass in the same way. Since such a carcass no longer undergoes the vibrations generated by the motor and said conversion means, its structure can also be lighter.
L'invention va à présent être décrite plus en détails au moyen d'un exemple d'un mode de réalisation non limitatif de la portée de cette invention et en référence aux figures jointes, dans lesquelles: La figure 1 est une vue latérale en coupe transversale d'un dispositif selon l'invention et la figure 2 est une vue de face en coupe transversale d'un tel dispositif. Dans ces figures, les mêmes numéros de références désignent les mêmes éléments du dispositif illustré.The invention will now be described in more detail by means of an example of a non-limiting embodiment of the scope of this invention and with reference to the attached figures, in which: FIG. 1 is a sectional side view transverse of a device according to the invention and Figure 2 is a front view in cross section of such a device. In these figures, the same reference numerals designate the same elements of the illustrated device.
En se rapportant aux figures, est illustré un dispositif 1 de découpe automatisée d'un pain en tranches, comprenant une carcasse 1a, une première table 2 de chargement dans le dispositif d'un pain à découper, qui peut être introduit dans le dispositif par une première ouverture dans sa carcasse, accessible en soulevant un premier clapet 13 fixé de manière pivotante à cette dernière, et une seconde table 3 de déchargement du dispositif du pain découpé, qui peut être déchargé du dispositif par une seconde ouverture dans sa carcasse, accessible en abaissant un second clapet 14 fixé de manière pivotante à cette dernière, un premier ensemble de lames 4a de découpe du pain, sensiblement parallèles les unes aux autres et disposées dans un premier cadre, et un second tel ensemble de lames 4b disposées dans un second cadre, chaque ensemble étant agencé sensiblement orthogonalement aux première et seconde tables et entre celles-ci, un moyen 12 de maintien du pain au contact de la première table pendant sa découpe, un poussoir 5 agencé pour être déplacé sensiblement parallèlement à la première table, entre une première position ai dans laquelle un pain peut être chargé dans le dispositif et une seconde position a2 adjacente audit premier ensemble des lames, dans laquelle le pain découpé peut être déchargé du dispositif, un moyen 6 de déplacement du poussoir entre ces deux positions, un moteur 7 et un moyen de conversion 8 du mouvement généré par le moteur en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames, le moteur et le moyen de conversion étant compris dans un module 9 et ce module est connecté à la carcasse du dispositif par un moyen 10 de connexion souple, agencé pour isoler cette carcasse des vibrations engendrées par lesdits moteur et moyen de conversion. Le module peut être constitué d'une carcasse, d'un châssis, d'un cadre ou de tout autre élément pouvant être isolé de la carcasse du dispositif par un moyen de connexion souple dudit module à cette dernière et contenir au moins le moteur et le moyen de conversion dont question. Le moyen de connexion illustré est constitué d'un ensemble de ressorts attachés par une de leurs extrémités respectives au module et par l'autre de leurs extrémités respectives à la carcasse du dispositif, de sorte à maintenir le module en suspension au sein de cette carcasse grâce à la tension de chaque ressort. Alternativement, ce moyen de connexion peut comprendre un ensemble de sangles élastiques, sillent blocks, amortisseurs ou une quelconque combinaison de ces éléments.

Le moyen de conversion du mouvement généré par le moteur en mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames est agencé pour animer le premier ensemble d'un mouvement en sens inverse de celui du second ensemble, grâce au fait que chaque ensemble de lames est connecté de manière pivotante par l'intermédiaire de son cadre, à une extrémité du balancier disposée du côté de son axe de balancement 8e opposé à l'autre extrémité. Il sera clair aux yeux de l'homme du métier que tout autre type de moteur et de moyen de conversion du mouvement que ce moteur génère en un mouvement oscillant de chaque ensemble de lames pourra être utilisé en lieu et place de ceux illustrés par les figures. Dans le dispositif illustré et de manière préférentielle, chaque ensemble de lames est compris dans le module. Ceci contribue à encore réduire la transmission des vibrations générées par le moteur et le moyen de conversion dont question à la carcasse du dispositif et dès lors l'inconfort acoustique et tactile de l'utilisateur. La base chaque ensemble de lames est connectée au moyen de conversion susmentionné et le sommet de chaque dit ensemble est fixé à un moyen de connexion 11 de ces derniers au module 9. Lorsque les ensembles de lames ne sont pas compris dans ce module, selon un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, leur sommet est fixé à un moyen de connexion de ces derniers à la carcasse du dispositif. Pour réduire davantage encore la transmission des vibrations générées par le moteur et le moyen de conversion à la carcasse du dispositif, le poussoir est également de manière plus préférentielle compris dans le module, de même que, de manière encore plus préférentielle, le moyen de déplacement dudit poussoir. Ce dernier comprend dans le dispositif illustré, un vérin hydraulique ou pneumatique motorisé 6a, une tringle articulée 6b connectée par une extrémité au vérin, un rail 6c et un socle 5a du poussoir, fixé à ce dernier, ledit socle pouvant coulisser dans le rail et étant connecté de manière pivotante à l'autre extrémité de la tringle articulée. L'homme du métier comprendra que tout autre moyen approprié à déplacer le poussoir entre ses deux positions ai et a2 peut alternativement être utilisé dans le cadre de l'invention revendiquée. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, la table de chargement est également comprise dans le module. Ceci permet de pouvoir disposer ce module selon différentes positions à l'intérieur de la carcasse du dispositif, de sorte à obtenir une inclinaison souhaitée de la table de chargement, selon les besoins spécifiques à remplir par ce dispositif. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, la table de déchargement est elle non comprise dans le module et fixée de manière rigide à la carcasse du dispositif. Cependant, elle peut également être comprise dans le module. Referring to the figures, there is illustrated a device 1 for automated cutting of a sliced bread, comprising a carcass 1a, a first loading table 2 in the device of a bread to be cut, which can be introduced into the device by a first opening in its carcass, accessible by lifting a first valve 13 pivotally attached thereto, and a second table 3 unloading device cut bread, which can be discharged from the device by a second opening in its carcass, accessible by lowering a second valve 14 pivotally attached thereto, a first set of blades 4a bread cutting , substantially parallel to each other and arranged in a first frame, and a second such set of blades 4b arranged in a second frame, each set being arranged substantially orthogonal to the first and second tables and between them, a means 12 for maintaining bread in contact with the first table during its cutting, a pusher 5 arranged to be moved substantially parallel to the prem first table in which a bread can be loaded into the device and a second position a2 adjacent to said first set of blades, in which the cut bread can be discharged from the device, a means 6 for moving the pusher between these two positions, a motor 7 and a conversion means 8 of the movement generated by the motor in an oscillating movement of each set of blades, the motor and the conversion means being included in a module 9 and this module is connected to the housing of the device by means 10 flexible connection, arranged to isolate this carcass vibrations generated by said engine and conversion means.
