Description

Dispositif d' orientation des roues d'un véhicule similaire à une planche à roulettesWheel steering device of a vehicle similar to a skateboard
La présente invention concerne un dispositif per- mettant d'orienter les roues d'un véhicule, tel qu'une planche à roulettes, dans le sens des virages et de les incliner vers l'intérieur des virages .The present invention relates to a device for orienting the wheels of a vehicle, such as a skateboard, in the direction of bends and tilting them inwards bends.
Les planches à roulettes sont normalement guidées par des pivots situés sous la planche, qui orientent indépendamment les axes des roues avant et arrière lorsque l'utilisateur porte son poids sur un côté ou l'autre de la planche pour l'incliner dans la direction où il désire tourner. Ce moyen est par construction sensible aux aspérités de la route parce que celles-ci peuvent retenir une des roues plus que celle qui est placée à l'autre extrémité du même axe et l'on doit donc limiter l'écartement des roues pour réduire cet effet et l'amplitude des changements de direction pour que l'utilisateur puisse garder une assise convenable. De plus le diamètre des roues est limité par le fait qu'elles sont placées sous la planche.The skateboards are normally guided by pivots located under the board, which independently orient the axes of the front and rear wheels when the user carries his weight on one side or the other of the board to incline it in the direction where he wants to turn. This means is by construction sensitive to roughness of the road because they can retain one of the wheels more than that which is placed at the other end of the same axis and one must therefore limit the spacing of the wheels to reduce this effect and amplitude of the changes of direction so that the user can keep a proper seat. In addition the diameter of the wheels is limited by the fact that they are placed under the board.
Les roues des planches actuelles restent perpendiculaires aμ terrain, à la différence de celles des motocyclettes, par exemple, qui s'inclinent par nature et offrent ainsi une meilleure adhérence. La présente invention a pour but de proposer une alternative à la construction des planches actuelles qui permet une meilleure mobilité des roues et offre plus de possibilités de réglage. Dans la construction proposée, les roues ne sont pas reliées par un axe, l'écart entre les roues n'est pas limité et les roues peuvent donc être placées en dehors du périmètre de la planche et être d'un plus grand diamètre que les roues des planches actuelles. De plus les roues montées selon l'invention s'inclinent naturellement en fonction de leur angle de direction.The wheels of the current boards remain perpendicular to the ground, unlike those of the motorcycles, for example, which incline by nature and thus offer a better grip. The present invention aims to provide an alternative to the construction of the current boards that allows better mobility of the wheels and offers more adjustment possibilities. In the proposed construction, the wheels are not connected by an axis, the gap between the wheels is not limited and the wheels can be placed outside the perimeter of the board and be of a larger diameter than the wheels. wheels of the current boards. In addition the wheels mounted according to the invention incline naturally according to their steering angle.
Le dispositif selon l'invention comprend un assemblage de pivots et de volets qui dirigent les roues d'une planche à roulettes ou d'un autre véhicule. Il est défini par la revendication 1. Les revendications dépendantes proposent des variantes d'exécution non limitatives.The device according to the invention comprises an assembly of pivots and flaps which direct the wheels of a skateboard or another vehicle. It is defined by claim 1. The dependent claims provide non-limiting alternative embodiments.
Les figures 1 à 3 montrent en perspective le dispositif selon l'invention dans trois positions différentes des volets 11, 12 supportant les roues 9, 10 dites arrière ;Figures 1 to 3 show in perspective the device according to the invention in three different positions of the flaps 11, 12 supporting the wheels 9, 10 said rear;
La figure 4 est une vue latérale d'une des parties articulées ;Figure 4 is a side view of one of the hinged parts;
La figure 5 similaire à la figure 1 montre la disposition des deux pivots d'un des volets ; La figure 6 montre en perspective uniquement l'assemblage de deux éléments inclinables ;Figure 5 similar to Figure 1 shows the arrangement of the two pivots of one of the shutters; Figure 6 shows in perspective only the assembly of two tilting elements;
La figure 7 montre une variante de montage du ca- dre semi-rigide ;Figure 7 shows a mounting variant of the semi-rigid frame;
La figure 8 similaire à la figure 1 montre une barre reliant les composants verticaux des ensembles inclinables.Figure 8 similar to Figure 1 shows a bar connecting the vertical components of the tilting assemblies.
Les plans inclinables 1, 2, prolongés par les composants verticaux 5, 6 forment deux ensembles rigides portant les roues dites avant 3, 4. A ces ensembles sont attachés des volets 11, 12, par l'intermédiaire des pivots 7, 8, Ces volets portent les roues dites arrière 9, 10 et sont reliés entre eux par un cadre 13 qui les poussent à se déplacer dans un mouvement qui est contraint par la géométrie du système et qui incline les roues 9, 10 dans le même sens que les ensembles inclinables 1, 2.The tilting planes 1, 2, extended by the vertical components 5, 6 form two rigid assemblies carrying the said wheels before 3, 4. To these sets are attached flaps 11, 12, via the pivots 7, 8, These shutters carry the said rear wheels 9, 10 and are interconnected by a frame 13 which pushes them to move in a movement which is constrained by the geometry of the system and which inclines the wheels 9, 10 in the same direction as the sets tilting 1, 2.
La figure 4 représente l'assemblage de la pièce inclinable 1, 2 avec sa partie verticale 5, 6 et le volet 11, 12 supportant la roue arrière. L'ensemble 1,5 ou 2,6 situé sous les hachures est fait d'un seul tenant, sans articulation. La partie située en-dehors de la partie hachurée constitue le support 11, 12 de la roue dite arrière 9, 10. Les deux parties sont reliées par un pivot 7, 8 qui est représenté par le trait incliné sur la figure 4.Figure 4 shows the assembly of the tilting piece 1, 2 with its vertical portion 5, 6 and the flap 11, 12 supporting the rear wheel. The set 1.5 or 2.6 located under the hatching is made in one piece, without articulation. The part situated outside the hatched part constitutes the support 11, 12 of the so-called rear wheel 9, 10. The two parts are connected by a pivot 7, 8 which is represented by the sloping line in FIG.
La figure 5 représente la configuration des deux pivots 8 et 15 ou 7 et 14 encadrant le support de la roue 9, 10 dite arrière et leur intersection. Les axes des pivots se croisent en un point commun 17.Figure 5 shows the configuration of the two pivots 8 and 15 or 7 and 14 framing the support of the wheel 9, 10 said rear and their intersection. The axes of the pivots intersect at a common point 17.
La figure 6 représente le cadre 16 qui maintient parallèles les deux ensembles inclinables 1, 2. Ce cadre, en forme de H, maintient les extrémités des parties inclinables dans des plans perpendiculaires à la barre centrale du H 16. Les branches du H peuvent toutefois tourner autour de cette barre centrale pour que les quatre roues restent en contact avec la route lorsqu'elle n'est pas plate.FIG. 6 shows the frame 16 which holds the two inclinable sets 1, 2 parallel. This H-shaped frame holds the ends of the tilting parts in planes perpendicular to the central bar of the H 16. turn around this center bar so that all four wheels stay in contact with the road when it is not flat.
La figure 7 représente la possibilité de monter le cadre 13 sur une partie pivotante de sorte que l'on puisse régler l'angle du cadre arrière avec la verticale et ainsi la valeur du rayon du virage imposé par les roues pour une inclinaison donnée des ensembles 1, 2 de l'avant.FIG. 7 shows the possibility of mounting the frame 13 on a pivoting part so that it is possible to adjust the angle of the rear frame with the vertical and thus the value of the radius of the turn imposed by the wheels for a given inclination of the sets. 1, 2 from the front.
La figure 8 montre une barre reliant les composants verticaux 5, 6 des ensembles inclinables et qui permet d'améliorer la précision du guidage de la planche. Le dispositif de la présente invention permet à une personne de diriger une planche à roulettes en appuyant sur les ensembles inclinables 1, 2, sur leur gauche ou sur leur droite. L'inclinaison des ensembles 1, 2, par l'intermédiaire des pivots 7, 8 et la contrainte du cadre 13, forcent les volets arrière 11, 12 à s'incliner et à se déplacer pour former un certain angle avec l'axe de la planche. Les contraintes géométriques font que les parties portant les roues arrière n'ont qu'une position possible pour chaque inclinaison. Les roues 9, 10 sont donc automatiquement orientées dans le virage et inclinée vers l'intérieur du virage.Figure 8 shows a bar connecting the vertical components 5, 6 of the tilting assemblies and which improves the accuracy of the guidance of the board. The device of the present invention allows a person to steer a skateboard by pressing the reclinable assemblies 1, 2, to their left or to their right. The inclination of the sets 1, 2, through the pivots 7, 8 and the stress of the frame 13, force the rear flaps 11, 12 to tilt and move to form an angle with the axis of the board. The geometric constraints mean that the parts carrying the rear wheels have only one possible position for each inclination. The wheels 9, 10 are therefore automatically oriented in the turn and inclined towards the inside of the turn.
La barre 18 à la figure 8 renforce l'effet du cadre 13 en gardant les inclinaisons des deux ensembles inclinables identiques.The bar 18 in Figure 8 enhances the effect of the frame 13 keeping the inclinations of two identical tilting sets.
Un certain nombre de caractéristiques de la planche peuvent être réglés indépendamment les uns des autres. Les angles que font les pivots 14, 15 avec la verticale déterminent le rayon du virage pour une inclinaison donnée des ensembles inclinables 1, 2. L'angle que fait les pivots 7 et 8 avec la verticale règle le degré d'inclinaison des roues 9, 10 pour une inclinaison donnée des ensembles inclinables 1 et 2. La hauteur à laquelle on choisit de placer le point de rencontre des pivots placés de part et d'autre d'un même volet 7 et 14 ou 8 et 15 déterminent la longueur des volets à la hauteur des roues. A number of features of the board can be set independently of each other. The angles made by the pivots 14, 15 with the vertical determine the radius of the turn for a given inclination of the inclinable sets 1, 2. The angle that the pivots 7 and 8 with the vertical rule the degree of inclination of the wheels 9 , 10 for a given inclination of the reclinable assemblies 1 and 2. The height at which one chooses to place the meeting point of the pivots placed on either side of the same shutter 7 and 14 or 8 and 15 determine the length of the flaps at the height of the wheels.
