Description

« Ootil à main comportant un porte-outil et outil manuel de coupe notamment pour la récolte de fruits ou similaires >>  "Hand-held Ootil having a tool holder and a manual cutting tool, particularly for harvesting fruits or the like"
La présente invention se rapporte à un outil à main comportant un porte-outil sur lequel peuvent être solidarisés des outils amovibles tels qu'une lame de coupe, une spatule, un pinceau, une balayette, etc.. Une des applications de l'outil à main concerne un outil manuel de coupe notamment pour la récolte de fruits, de légumes ou similaires. Plus particulièrement, elle concerne un outil comportant un support agencé pour recevoir au moins un doigt d'un utilisateur, en particulier le pouce, des moyens de préhension aptes à s'étendre entre la paume de la main de l'utilisateur et ses doigts repliés et des moyens de solidarisation d'un outil. The present invention relates to a hand tool comprising a tool holder on which can be secured removable tools such as a cutting blade, a spatula, a brush, a brush, etc. One of the applications of the tool hand is a manual cutting tool especially for the harvest of fruits, vegetables or the like. More particularly, it relates to a tool comprising a support arranged to receive at least one finger of a user, in particular the thumb, gripping means capable of extending between the palm of the hand of the user and his fingers folded and means for securing a tool.
Dans le domaine de l'arboriculture fruitière et la viticulture notamment, il est bien connu d'utiliser des outils de coupe pour la cueillette et la vendange respectivement des fruits. Outre les outils conventionnels tels que le couteau et la serpette, il est usuel d'utiliser un sécateur éventuellement combiné avec un dispositif de pincement agencé pour pincer la tige pendant le processus de coupe et pour retenir le fruit après que la tige du fruit a été coupée. In the field of fruit growing and viticulture in particular, it is well known to use cutting tools for picking and harvesting fruit respectively. In addition to conventional tools such as the knife and the serpette, it is customary to use a pruner possibly combined with a pinch device arranged to pinch the stem during the cutting process and to retain the fruit after the stem of the fruit has been removed. cut.
Les sécateurs présentent l'inconvénient d'être lourds, rendant leur usage mal commode, et de nécessiter une utilisation répétée de la force musculaire pour actionner les manches de la poignée, induisant une succession d'ouvertures et de fermetures de la main de l'utilisateur, pouvant conduire rapidement à l'apparition de tendinites. Afin de palier à cet inconvénient, on a déjà imaginé des sécateurs dits électriques comportant un moteur électrique qui actionne les lames du sécateur. C'est le cas notamment de la demande de brevet européen EP0803186 par exemple. Le document EP0803186 décrit un sécateur électrique comportant deux lames, une première famé fixe solidaire d'un boîtier de préhension et une seconde lame articulée audit boîtier et actionnée par un moteur électrique par l'intermédiaire d'une tige filetée, un écrou fileté et une tige de déplacement. Secateurs have the disadvantage of being heavy, making their use inconvenient, and require repeated use of muscle strength to actuate the handles of the handle, inducing a succession of openings and closures of the hand of the user, which can lead quickly to the appearance of tendonitis. To overcome this disadvantage, we have already imagined so-called electric secateurs with an electric motor that actuates the pruner blades. This is particularly the case of the European patent application EP0803186 for example. The document EP0803186 describes an electric pruner comprising two blades, a first stationary secured to a gripping housing and a second blade hinged to said housing and actuated by an electric motor via a threaded rod, a threaded nut and a displacement rod.
Ce type de sécateur électrique présente l'inconvénient d'être lourd, de sorte qu'une utilisation prolongée fatigue l'utilisateur au bout d'un temps relativement court, et de présenter une autonomie de fonctionnement relativement limitée. This type of electric pruner has the disadvantage of being heavy, so that prolonged use fatigue the user after a relatively short time, and have a relatively limited operating autonomy.
On connaît également des outils manuels de coupe plus légers. C'est le cas notamment de la demande de brevet international WO 02/082882 qui décrit un appareil de coupe permettant de récolter des fruits à tige. Cet appareil de coupe comprend un support conçu pour être porté à un doigt de la main d'un utilisateur, ainsi qu'un moyen de coupe s'étendant à partir du support, à distance du doigt. Plus particulièrement, le support consiste en un anneau apte à être positionné sur la seconde phalange du pouce d'un utilisateur. Ledit anneau comporte une branche s'étendant parallèlement à l'axe de l'anneau sur le côté latéral du pouce en faisant saillie dudit pouce et à l'extrémité de laquelle est solidarisée une lame. Manual lighter cutting tools are also known. This is particularly the case of the international patent application WO 02/082882 which describes a cutting apparatus for harvesting fruit stem. This cutting apparatus comprises a holder adapted to be worn on a finger of a user's hand, and a cutting means extending from the holder, away from the finger. More particularly, the support consists of a ring adapted to be positioned on the second phalanx of the thumb of a user. Said ring has a branch extending parallel to the axis of the ring on the lateral side of the thumb protruding from said thumb and at the end of which is secured a blade.
Ce type d'outil de coupe présente l'inconvénient de ne pas être efficace et d'être dangereux pour l'utilisateur. En effet, lors de la coupe d'une tige d'un fruit, l'anneau formant le support a tendance à tourner, changeant ainsi l'orientation de la lame. Par ailleurs, la lame qui fait saillie du pouce est susceptible de blesser les autres doigts de l'utilisateur. L'un des buts de l'invention est donc de remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un outil à main comportant un porte-outil sur lequel peuvent être solidarisés des outils amovibles tels qu'une lame de coupe, une spatule, un pinceau, une balayette, etc., de conception simple et peu onéreuse et procurant une bonne ergonomie d'utilisation. This type of cutting tool has the disadvantage of not being effective and of being dangerous for the user. Indeed, when cutting a stem of a fruit, the ring forming the support tends to rotate, thus changing the orientation of the blade. In addition, the blade protruding from the thumb is likely to hurt the other fingers of the user. One of the aims of the invention is therefore to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a hand tool comprising a tool holder on which removable tools such as a blade can be secured. cutting, a spatula, a brush, a brush, etc., of simple and inexpensive design and providing good ergonomics of use.
A cet effet et conformément à l'invention, il est proposé un outil à main comportant un porte-outil sur lequel peuvent être solidarisés de manière amovibles des outils tels qu'une lame de coupe, une spatule, un pinceau, une balayette, etc., ledit outil comportant au moins un support agencé pour recevoir au moins un doigt d'un utilisateur, en particulier le pouce,; ledit outil est remarquable en ce que le support présente une forme sensiblement cylindrique et comporte sur sa paroi latérale des moyens de solidarisation de l'outil et, du côté opposé aux moyens de solidarisation de l'outil, des moyens de préhension aptes à s'étendre entre la paume de la main de l'utilisateur et ses doigts repliés. On comprend bien que, contrairement aux dispositifs de l'art antérieur, l'outil à main suivant l'invention est particulièrement léger et maniable, procure une grande stabilité de l'outil lors de son utilisation et permet de changer aisément et rapidement d'outil en fonction des travaux à effectuer. For this purpose and in accordance with the invention, there is provided a hand tool comprising a tool holder on which tools such as a cutting blade, a spatula, a brush, a brush, etc. can be removably secured. said tool comprising at least one support arranged to receive at least one finger of a user, in particular the thumb; said tool is remarkable in that the support has a substantially cylindrical shape and has on its side wall means for securing the tool and, on the opposite side to the securing means of the tool, gripping means adapted to s' extend between the palm of the user's hand and his folded fingers. It is understood that, unlike the devices of the prior art, the hand tool according to the invention is particularly light and manageable, provides great stability of the tool during use and allows to change easily and quickly tool according to the work to be done.
De manière avantageuse, le support comporte un méplat comprenant une fente s' étendant sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du support cylindrique, ladite fente recevant la semelle de forme correspondante de l'outil. Advantageously, the support comprises a flat part comprising a slot extending substantially parallel to the axis of the cylindrical support, said slot receiving the corresponding shape of the sole of the tool.
De préférence, ladite fente présente une section droite de forme rectangulaire. Preferably, said slot has a rectangular cross section.
Par ailleurs, l'outil comprend une semelle de forme parallélépipédique. De plus, l'extrémité proximale de la semelle comporte une butée. Furthermore, the tool includes a parallelepiped shaped sole. In addition, the proximal end of the sole has a stop.
Afin d'assurer le blocage de la semelle de l'outil dans la fente, ladite semelle comporte deux trous borgnes aptes à recevoir des vis coopérant avec deux trous taraudés traversant pratiqués dans le méplat du support. To ensure the locking of the sole of the tool in the slot, said sole has two blind holes adapted to receive screws cooperating with two threaded through holes made in the flat part of the support.
De préférence, ledit outil est une lame à double émouture, c'est-à-dire une lame à double tranchant. Preferably, said tool is a double-edged blade, that is to say a double-edged blade.
De préférence, lesdits moyens de préhension sont amovibles et consistent en une tige cylindrique. Par ailleurs, ledit support comporte une boursouflure du côté opposé au méplat, ladite boursouflure comportant un trou taraudé apte à recevoir le filetage formé à l'extrémité proximale de la tige cylindrique. Preferably, said gripping means are removable and consist of a cylindrical rod. Furthermore, said support comprises a blister on the side opposite the flat, said blister having a threaded hole adapted to receive the thread formed at the proximal end of the cylindrical rod.
De manière avantageuse, l'extrémité distale de la tige cylindrique comporte une gorge annulaire apte à recevoir un bracelet de retenue, ledit bracelet de retenue étant de préférence élastique. De cette manière, le bracelet peut être positionné autour des doigts lorsque les doigts de la main sont refermés sur la tige cylindrique afin d'assurer une meilleur préhension de l'outil. Advantageously, the distal end of the cylindrical rod comprises an annular groove adapted to receive a retaining strap, said retaining strap preferably being elastic. In this way, the bracelet can be positioned around the fingers when the fingers of the hand are closed on the cylindrical rod to ensure a better grip of the tool.

On décrira ci-après un outil à main suivant l'invention particulièrement destiné à la coupe pour la récolte de fruits, légumes ou similaires ; toutefois, il est bien évident que l'outil de coupe pourra aisément être adapté pour d'autres applications telles que la découpe de plaques de plâtre, de membranes bitumineuses, de revêtements de sol, tels que de la moquette ou des dalles de PVC par exemple, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. Par ailleurs, il va de soi que l'outil à main trouvera de nombreuses autres applications en fonction de l'outil solidarisé au porte outil, tel qu'une spatule, un pinceau, une balayette, une raclette, etc.. En référence à la figure 1, l'outil à main de coupe 1 suivant l'invention est constitué d'un support 2 agencé pour recevoir au moins un doigt d'un utilisateur, en particulier le pouce, présentant une forme sensiblement cylindrique et comportant sur sa paroî latérale des moyens de solidarisation 3 d'une lame 4, et, du côté opposé aux moyens de solidarisation 3 de la lame 4, des moyens de préhension 5 aptes à s'étendre entre la paume de ta main de l'utilisateur et ses doigts repliés. Hereinafter will be described a hand tool according to the invention particularly intended for cutting for the harvest of fruits, vegetables or the like; however, it is obvious that the cutting tool can easily be adapted for other applications such as cutting plasterboard, bituminous membranes, flooring, such as carpet or PVC slabs by example, without departing from the scope of the invention. Moreover, it goes without saying that the hand tool will find many other applications depending on the tool secured to the tool holder, such as a spatula, a brush, a brush, a squeegee, etc. Referring to Figure 1, the cutting hand tool 1 according to the invention consists of a support 2 arranged to receive at least one finger of a user, in particular the thumb, having a substantially cylindrical shape and comprising on its side side of the securing means 3 of a blade 4, and on the opposite side to the securing means 3 of the blade 4, gripping means 5 adapted to extend between the palm of your hand of the user and his fingers folded.
Ledit support 2, en référence aux figures 1 à 5, consiste en une pièce cylindrique comportant un trou traversant 6 de section droite circulaire et un méplat 7, formant la partie supérieure dudit support 2, comprenant une fente traversante 8 s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du support 2 cylindrique, ladite fente 8 recevant la semelle de forme correspondante de la lame 4 comme il sera détaillé plus loin. Dans cet exemple particulier de réalisation, ladite fente 8 présente une section droite de forme rectangulaire pour recevoir la semelle de la lame 4 de forme parallélépipédique. il va de soi que la fente 8 pourra présenter une forme quelconque, la semelle de la lame 4 présentant alors une forme correspondant à celle de la fente 8. Said support 2, with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5, consists of a cylindrical part comprising a through-hole 6 of circular cross-section and a flat part 7, forming the upper part of said support 2, comprising a through slot 8 extending substantially parallel to the axis of the cylindrical support 2, said slot 8 receiving the corresponding shape of the sole blade 4 as will be detailed below. In this particular embodiment, said slot 8 has a rectangular cross section to receive the sole of the blade 4 parallelepiped shape. it goes without saying that the slot 8 may have any shape, the sole of the blade 4 then having a shape corresponding to that of the slot 8.
La face supérieure du méplat 7 comporte deux trous taraudés 9 traversants débouchant dans la fente 8, lesdits trous 9 étant aptes à recevoir des vis, non représentées sur les figures, coopérant avec des trous borgnes pratiqués dans la semelle de la lame 4 afin d'assurer la solidarisation de la lame 4 sur le support 2 comme il sera détaillé plus loin. The upper face of the flat part 7 has two threaded through holes 9 opening into the slot 8, said holes 9 being able to receive screws, not shown in the figures, cooperating with blind holes made in the sole of the blade 4 in order to ensure the joining of the blade 4 on the support 2 as will be detailed later.
Par ailleurs, ledit support 2 comporte une boursouflure 10 du côté opposé au méplat 7, ladite boursouflure 10 comportant un trou taraudé 11 apte à recevoir le filetage formé à l'extrémité proximale des moyens de préhension 5 comme il sera détaillé plus loin. En référence aux figures 1, 6, 7 et 8, la lame 4 est du type à double émouture, c'est-à-dire à double tranchant, présente une forme générale rectangulaire et est constituée d'une semelle 12 de forme parallélépipédique et d'une partie tranchante 13 s' étendant depuis l'extrémité distale de la semelle 11, l'extrémité proximale de la semelle 11 comportant une butée 14 qui vient prendre appui sur la paroi transversale du méplat 7. Afin d'assurer le blocage de la semelle 12 de la lame 4 dans la fente 8, ladite semelle 12 comporte deux trous borgnes 15 aptes à recevoir les vis coopérant avec les deux trous taraudés traversants 9 pratiqués dans le méplat 7 du support 2. Furthermore, said support 2 comprises a blister 10 on the side opposite the flat 7, said blister 10 having a threaded hole 11 adapted to receive the thread formed at the proximal end of the gripping means 5 as will be detailed below. With reference to FIGS. 1, 6, 7 and 8, the blade 4 is of the double-edging type, that is to say with a double-edged shape, has a generally rectangular shape and consists of a sole 12 of parallelepipedal shape and a cutting portion 13 extending from the distal end of the sole 11, the proximal end of the sole 11 having a stop 14 which bears on the transverse wall of the flattened portion 7. In order to ensure the locking of the sole 12 of the blade 4 in the slot 8, said sole 12 comprises two blind holes 15 adapted to receive the screws cooperating with the two threaded through holes 9 formed in the flat 7 of the support 2.
De préférence, ladite lame 4 est une lame à double émouture, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur de pouvoir travailler dans deux directions opposées ; toutefois, il est bien évident que la partie tranchante 13 de la lame 4 pourra ne comporter qu'une seule émouture et/ou pourra présenter une forme quelconque telle qu'une forme de lame à tranchant droit, « trailing- point », « clip-point », « drop-point », « spear-point », « needle-point », « spay-point », Tantô, de type pied de mouton, de type Wharncliffe, ou similaire sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. Preferably, said blade 4 is a double-edged blade, which allows the user to work in two opposite directions; however, it is obvious that the cutting portion 13 of the blade 4 may have only one emouture and / or may have any shape such as a blade shape with a straight edge, "trailing-point", "clip -point "," drop-point "," spear-point "," needle-point "," spay-point ", Tantô, foot-like type, Wharncliffe type, or the like without departing from the scope of the 'invention.
Il est bien évident que la lame 4 pourra être substituée par tout autre type d'outil tel qu'une spatule, un pinceau, une balayette, une raclette, etc.. par exemple, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. Afin de solidariser la lame 4 au support 2, ladite lame 4 est introduite dans la fente 8 du méplat 7 jusqu'à ce que la butée 14 prenne appui sur la paroi transversale dudît méplat 7. Lorsque la butée 14 est en appui sur la paroi transversale dudit méplat 7, les trous taraudés 15 de la semelle 12 de la lame 4 s'étendent au droit des trous 9 du méplat 7 et des vis, non représentées sur les figures sont introduites dans lesdits trous 9 pour coopérer avec les trous taraudés 15. En référence aux figures 1, 4 et 9, les moyens de préhension 5 sont avantageusement amovibles et consistent en une tige cylindrique 16. L'extrémité proximale de ladite tige cylindrique 16 comporte un filetage 17 apte à coopérer avec le filetage du trou taraudé 11 pratiqué dans la boursouflure 10 du support 2, L'axe du trou taraudé 11, et in fine (a tige cylindrique 16, forme un angle a supérieur à 90° avec l'axe du support 2 cylindrique et, de préférence, un angle a est compris entre 95" et 120°. De cette manière, la tige cylindrique 16 s'étend dans le plan sagittal de l'outil, c'est-à-dire le plan perpendiculaire à la lame 4 et passant par l'axe du support cylindrique 2, sous le support 2 et vers l'arrière, c'est-à-dire dans la direction opposée à celle de la lame 4. It is obvious that the blade 4 may be substituted by any other type of tool such as a spatula, a brush, a brush, a squeegee, etc., for example, without departing from the scope of the invention. In order to secure the blade 4 to the support 2, said blade 4 is introduced into the slot 8 of the flat 7 until the abutment 14 bears against the transverse wall of said flattened portion 7. When the abutment 14 bears against the wall transverse of said flat 7, the tapped holes 15 of the sole 12 of the blade 4 extend to the right of the holes 9 of the flat 7 and screws, not shown in the figures are introduced into said holes 9 to cooperate with the tapped holes 15 . With reference to FIGS. 1, 4 and 9, the gripping means 5 are advantageously removable and consist of a cylindrical rod 16. The proximal end of said cylindrical rod 16 comprises a thread 17 adapted to cooperate with the thread of the tapped hole 11 practiced in the blister 10 of the support 2, the axis of the tapped hole 11, and in fine (a cylindrical rod 16, forms an angle α greater than 90 ° with the axis of the cylindrical support 2 and, preferably, an angle a is in this way, the cylindrical rod 16 extends in the sagittal plane of the tool, that is to say the plane perpendicular to the blade 4 and passing through the axis of the support cylindrical 2, under the support 2 and rearward, that is to say in the opposite direction to that of the blade 4.
Accessoirement, l'extrémité distale de la tige cylindrique 16 comporte une gorge annulaire 18 apte à recevoir un bracelet de retenue, non représenté sur les figures, ledit bracelet de retenue étant de préférence élastique. De cette manière, le bracelet peut s'étendre depuis la gorge annulaire 18 jusqu'à l'extrémité proximate de la tige et être positionné autour des doigts lorsque les doigts de la main sont refermés sur la tige cylindrique 16 afin d'assurer une meilleur préhension de l'outil. Incidentally, the distal end of the cylindrical rod 16 has an annular groove 18 adapted to receive a retaining strap, not shown in the figures, said retaining strap being preferably elastic. In this way, the bracelet can extend from the annular groove 18 to the proximate end of the rod and be positioned around the fingers when the fingers of the hand are closed on the cylindrical rod 16 to ensure better grasping the tool.
Il va de soi que le bracelet de retenue pourra être obtenue dans tout matériau approprié élastique ou non tel que du cuir par exemple sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. De plus, il est bien évident que les moyens de préhension pourront présenter une forme quelconque sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention. It goes without saying that the retaining strap can be obtained in any suitable elastic or non-elastic material such as leather for example without departing from the scope of the invention. In addition, it is obvious that the gripping means may have any shape without departing from the scope of the invention.
Il est bien entendu que la présente invention n'est en aucune façon limitée aux formes de réalisations décrites ci-dessus et que bien des modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir du cadre des revendications annexées. It is understood that the present invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described above and that many modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
