Description

Dispositif pour détecter et plier un vêtement automatiquement  Device for detecting and folding a garment automatically
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour plier un vêtement automatiquement, capable de détecter si ce dernier est posé sur le dispositif. The present invention relates to a device for folding a garment automatically, able to detect if the latter is placed on the device.
Plier des vêtements est traditionnellement effectué manuellement, ce qui peut causer sur le long terme des douleurs musculaires et articulaires non négligeables pour une quelconque personne. Autrement, il est connu un dispositif composé de planches en plastique pour plier des vêtements plus facilement et proprement, ce qui allège l'effort mais qui toutefois reste manuel, n'écartant donc pas le problème posé. Il existe également d'autres dispositifs qui permettent de plier des vêtements automatiquement mais dont le mécanisme s'avère complexe, lourd et qui ne dispose pas d'un système de détection.  Bending clothes is traditionally done manually, which can cause long-term muscle and joint pain for any person. Otherwise, it is known a device consisting of plastic boards to fold clothes more easily and cleanly, which reduces the effort but which however remains manual, thus not removing the problem. There are also other devices that can fold clothes automatically but the mechanism is complex, heavy and does not have a detection system.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à ces inconvénients. Il comporte une pièce centrale constituée de deux cylindres creux qui se trouvent sur les deux côtés du dispositif ainsi qu'un autre qui se trouve sur la partie inférieure du dispositif. L'alésage de ces trois cylindres permet d'y insérer un arbre rotatif. Ce dernier entraîne dans sa rotation angulaire, une planche rectangulaire qui est reliée simplement à cet arbre par complémentarité des pièces. La complémentarité s'effectue par le biais d'un emboîtement de la planche dans l'arbre. On peut également concevoir que l'arbre rotatif et la planche forment une unique pièce. Les arbres rotatifs comportent une tige en leurs extrémités sur laquelle peut être placé un quelconque moteur afin d'effectuer la rotation. Les arbres rotatifs sont munis d'une tige à leurs extrémités afin qu'on puisse y placer un servomoteur et permettre la rotation angulaire. Chaque planche va donc se rabattre sur la pièce centrale et revenir à sa position initiale successivement et dans un ordre précis, afin de plier le vêtement posé au préalable sur le dispositif.  The device according to the invention overcomes these disadvantages. It comprises a central part consisting of two hollow cylinders which are on both sides of the device and another which is on the lower part of the device. The bore of these three cylinders allows to insert a rotating shaft. The latter causes in its angular rotation, a rectangular board which is simply connected to this shaft by complementarity of parts. Complementarity is achieved by a nesting of the board in the tree. It is also conceivable that the rotating shaft and the board form a single piece. The rotary shafts have a rod at their ends on which can be placed any motor to perform the rotation. The rotating shafts are equipped with a rod at their ends so that a servomotor can be placed there and allow the angular rotation. Each board will therefore fall back on the central piece and return to its initial position successively and in a specific order, to fold the garment previously placed on the device.
Le pliage s'effectue donc de façon automatique mais pas seulement car le dispositif est pourvu d'un système de détection qui s'accompagne d'un capteur sur chaque planche y compris la pièce centrale. Cette disposition des capteurs va alors déterminer le type du vêtement posé sur le dispositif et déclencher le pliage adapté au vêtement car en effet l'ordre de rabattement des planches diffère en fonction du vêtement. Les capteurs doivent alors être placés stratégiquement afin d'identifier le type de vêtement en fonction des capteurs.  Folding therefore takes place automatically, but not only because the device is provided with a detection system which is accompanied by a sensor on each board including the central part. This arrangement of the sensors will then determine the type of clothing placed on the device and trigger folding adapted to the garment because indeed the order of folding of the boards differs depending on the garment. The sensors must then be strategically placed to identify the type of garment based on the sensors.

La figure 10 représente la rotation de chaque planche autour de l'arbre dont il est assemblé. Figure 10 shows the rotation of each board around the tree which it is assembled.
En référence à ses dessins, le dispositif comporte une pièce centrale (1) dont les extrémités droite et gauche sont munies d'un cylindre creux (la) dont l'alésage est conforme avec une certaine tolérance à un arbre rotatif (4). Elle comporte également un cylindre creux en son extrémité du bas (lb) dont l'alésage est conforme à un autre arbre rotatif (5).  Referring to its drawings, the device comprises a central piece (1) whose right and left ends are provided with a hollow cylinder (la) whose bore is compliant with a certain tolerance to a rotary shaft (4). It also comprises a hollow cylinder at its bottom end (lb) whose bore is in accordance with another rotating shaft (5).
L'arbre rotatif de côté (4) est présent en deux exemplaires et s'insère dans le cylindre creux de côté (la) à droite et à gauche. L'arbre rotatif de côté (4) doit pouvoir s'insérer de façon à permettre une rotation angulaire de cent quatre-vingt degrés de manière continue et fluide. Il est donc nécessaire de prévoir une certaine tolérance géométrique entre l'alésage et l'arbre. L'arbre rotatif de face (5) est unique et s'insère dans le cylindre creux de face (lb). L'arbre rotatif de face (5) doit pouvoir s'insérer de façon à permettre une rotation angulaire de cent quatre-vingt degrés de manière continue et fluide. Il est donc nécessaire de prévoir une certaine tolérance géométrique entre l'alésage et l'arbre.  The rotary side shaft (4) is present in duplicate and fits into the hollow cylinder side (la) right and left. The side rotating shaft (4) shall be capable of being inserted in a manner that permits an angular rotation of one hundred and eighty degrees in a continuous and fluid manner. It is therefore necessary to provide a certain geometric tolerance between the bore and the shaft. The rotary face shaft (5) is unique and fits into the hollow face cylinder (1b). The face rotating shaft (5) must be able to be inserted in such a way as to allow an angular rotation of one hundred and eighty degrees in a continuous and fluid manner. It is therefore necessary to provide a certain geometric tolerance between the bore and the shaft.
Le cylindre creux de côté (la) comprend deux enlèvements de matière semblable à deux ouvertures qui s'étendent sur cent quatre-vingt degrés tel qu'il est représenté sur la figure 3b et 3c. Le cylindre creux de face (lb) comprend un enlèvement de matière semblable à une ouverture qui s'étend sur cent quatre-vingt degrés tel qu'il est représenté sur la figure 3a et 3c. Ces ouvertures vont permettre à la planche de côté (2) et à la planche de face (3), relié respectivement à l'arbre rotatif de côté (4) et l'arbre rotatif de face (5) d'effectuer une rotation angulaire autour de l'axe de l'arbre concerné de façon à se rabattre sur la pièce centrale (1) et revenir à sa position initiale.  The hollow side cylinder (1a) comprises two similar material withdrawals with two openings which extend over one hundred and eighty degrees as shown in FIG. 3b and 3c. The hollow face cylinder (1b) comprises a material removal similar to an opening which extends over one hundred and eighty degrees as shown in FIG. 3a and 3c. These openings will allow the side board (2) and the front board (3), respectively connected to the side rotary shaft (4) and the front rotary shaft (5) to rotate angularly. around the axis of the shaft concerned so as to fall back on the central piece (1) and return to its initial position.
L'arbre de côté (4) est muni de deux ouvertures horizontales (4a) et (4b) conformes à la forme de la planche de côté (2) conçue spécifiquement pour être adaptée à ces deux ouvertures. L'arbre de face (5) est muni d'une ouverture horizontale (5a) conforme à la forme de la planche de face (3) conçue spécifiquement pour être adaptée à cette ouverture. La planche de côté (2) est rectangulaire et présente alors deux saillies (2a) et (2b). La planche de face (3) est rectangulaire et présente alors une saillie (3a). La planche de côté (2) se trouve donc en deux exemplaires, emboîtées dans les ouvertures (4a) et (4b) des deux arbres de côté (4) par leurs saillies (2a) et (2b), les arbres étant insérés dans les deux cylindres creux de côté (la) qui se trouvent sur les extrémités droite et gauche du dispositif. La planche de face (3) est unique, emboîtée dans l'ouverture (5a) de l'arbre de face (5) par le biais de la saillie (3a), ce dernier étant inséré dans le cylindre creux de face (lb) qui se trouve sur l'extrémité inférieure du dispositif.  The side shaft (4) is provided with two horizontal openings (4a) and (4b) conforming to the shape of the side board (2) designed specifically to be adapted to these two openings. The face shaft (5) is provided with a horizontal opening (5a) conforming to the shape of the face board (3) designed specifically to be adapted to this opening. The side board (2) is rectangular and then has two projections (2a) and (2b). The face plate (3) is rectangular and then has a projection (3a). The side board (2) is therefore in two copies, nested in the openings (4a) and (4b) of the two side shafts (4) by their projections (2a) and (2b), the shafts being inserted in the two hollow side cylinders (la) which are on the right and left ends of the device. The face board (3) is unique, nested in the opening (5a) of the face shaft (5) through the projection (3a), the latter being inserted into the hollow face cylinder (1b) which is on the lower end of the device.
Dans le cas échéant, la liaison de côté entre la planche de côté (2) et l'arbre de côté (4) peut être maintenue par une vice resserrée par un boulon. De même, la liaison de face entre la planche de face (3) et l'arbre de face (5) peut être maintenue par une vice resserrée par un boulon. In this case, the side connection between the side board (2) and the side shaft (4) can be maintained by a vice tightened by a bolt. Similarly, the front connection between the front board (3) and the front shaft (5) can be maintained by a vice constricted by a bolt.
Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 8, la liaison de côté peut être remplacée par une unique pièce (7) qui comprend la planche de côté (2) et l'arbre de côté (4) assemblés. Dans la forme de réalisation selon la figure 9, la liaison de face peut être remplacée par une unique pièce (8) qui comprend la planche de face (3) et l'arbre de face (5) assemblés.  In the embodiment according to Figure 8, the side connection can be replaced by a single piece (7) which comprises the side board (2) and the side shaft (4) assembled. In the embodiment according to Figure 9, the front connection can be replaced by a single piece (8) which comprises the front board (3) and the face shaft (5) assembled.
L'arbre de côté (4) et l'arbre de face (5) disposent d'une tige (6) à leurs extrémités afin de pouvoir y placer un servomoteur sur chaque tige et les faire tourner.  The side shaft (4) and the front shaft (5) have a rod (6) at their ends in order to place a servomotor on each rod and rotate them.
Une fois assemblés avec leurs planches respectives, les arbres de côtés (4) et l'arbre de face (5) ne doivent avoir qu'un degré de liberté ; c'est-à-dire que leurs liaisons avec le dispositif ne doivent permettre qu'une rotation de type pivot, pas de glissement horizontal ou de translation de ces derniers.  Once assembled with their respective planks, the side trees (4) and the face shaft (5) must have only one degree of freedom; that is to say that their connections with the device must allow a pivot-type rotation, no horizontal sliding or translation of the latter.
Selon une fonctionnalité non illustrée, le dispositif est muni de capteurs afin de déterminer la présence d'un vêtement dès lors qu'il est posé sur le dispositif. Les capteurs sont alors placés stratégiquement pour deux raisons :  According to a feature not shown, the device is provided with sensors to determine the presence of a garment when it is placed on the device. The sensors are then strategically placed for two reasons:
- déterminer la présence d'un vêtement,  - determine the presence of a garment,
- identifier le type de vêtement.  - identify the type of clothing.
Sur chaque planche y compris la pièce centrale est alors placée une photorésistance afin de capter l'intensité de la lumière perçue. Lorsque le vêtement est posé, un programme va identifier le type du vêtement en fonction des photorésistances dont la détection de lumière a diminué jusqu'à un certain seuil. Ce programme met alors en relation les photorésistances et les servomoteurs. Ce procédé ou ces moyens de détection permettent d'adapter le pliage en fonction du vêtement.  On each plate including the central piece is then placed a photoresistor to capture the intensity of the perceived light. When the garment is placed, a program will identify the type of garment based photoresistances whose light detection has decreased to a certain threshold. This program then relates the photoresistors and the servomotors. This method or these detection means make it possible to adapt the folding according to the garment.
A titre d'exemple non limitatif, le dispositif sera fabriqué en tôle fine et aura des dimensions de l'ordre de 60 cm de longueur et 71 cm de largeur.  By way of non-limiting example, the device will be made of thin sheet metal and will have dimensions of the order of 60 cm in length and 71 cm in width.
Le dispositif selon l'invention est particulièrement destiné à plier des vêtements comme des t- shirts, pulls et pantalons. Il est principalement destiné aux entreprises et chaînes de magasins et peut être adapté aux particuliers.  The device according to the invention is particularly intended for folding clothes such as t-shirts, sweaters and pants. It is mainly aimed at businesses and retail chains and can be adapted to individuals.
