L'extrémité supérieure biseautée de la jupe 3f est fermée par un couvercle ajouré 3j permettant la fixation d'un micro 2d, d'un haut-parleur 2h et d'un capteur à effet de hall 2g de la radio vocale 2. La jupe 3f comprend une partie interne creuse 31 fermée à sa base par la platine 3d qui est traversée à ce niveau par un connecteur étanche 2f permettant les connexions électriques entre les éléments électroniques 2a disposés à l'intérieur de la seconde coque 3a de l'embase 3 et le micro 2d, le haut-parleur 2h et le capteur à effet de hall 2g de la radio vocale 2. The beveled upper end of the skirt 3f is closed by a perforated lid 3j for fixing a microphone 2d, a speaker 2h and a hall effect sensor 2g of the voice radio 2. The skirt 3f comprises a hollow internal portion 31 closed at its base by the plate 3d which is traversed at this level by a sealed connector 2f allowing the electrical connections between the electronic elements 2a disposed inside the second shell 3a of the base 3 and the microphone 2d, the loudspeaker 2h and the hall effect sensor 2g of the voice radio 2.
La platine 3d est percée à proximité de la jupe 3f d'un trou 3g permettant le passage et la fixation d'une gaine souple 2b à l'intérieur de laquelle est logée l'antenne 2ç de la radio vocal 2 à l'intérieur de l'embase 3. La jupe 3f comporte à proximité de la platine 3d et sur sa périphérie externe cylindrique une gorge annulaire 3h à l'intérieur de laquelle est disposée un joint torique 3i. Le couvercle 4 du boitier étanche 1 est constitué d'une platine horizontale 4a solidaire sur sa face inférieure d'une bordure périphérique 4b sur laquelle est agencé un joint torique 4ç venant se loger en position de fermeture à l'intérieur de la seconde coque 3a de l'embase 3 pour en assurer l'étanchéité. The plate 3d is pierced near the skirt 3f of a hole 3g allowing the passage and fixing of a flexible sheath 2b inside which is housed the antenna 2c of the vocal radio 2 inside of the base 3. The skirt 3f comprises near the plate 3d and on its cylindrical outer periphery an annular groove 3h within which is disposed an O-ring 3i. The cover 4 of the sealed housing 1 consists of a horizontal plate 4a secured on its underside with a peripheral edge 4b on which is arranged an O-ring 4c which is housed in the closed position inside the second shell 3a of the base 3 to ensure tightness.
La platine 4a est solidaire à l'opposé de la bordure 4b d'un manchon cylindrique vertical 4d recevant dans sa partie interne en position de fermeture la jupe 3f de l'embase 3. The plate 4a is secured opposite the edge 4b of a vertical cylindrical sleeve 4d receiving in its inner portion in the closed position the skirt 3f of the base 3.
On remarque que le joint torique 3i aménagé sur le profil externe de la jupe 3f vient en contact avec la partie interne du manchon cylindrique 4d afin d'assurer une étanchéité entre le couvercle 4 et l'embase 3. Note that the O-ring 3i arranged on the outer profile of the skirt 3f comes into contact with the inner part of the cylindrical sleeve 4d to ensure a seal between the cover 4 and the base 3.
La platine 4a est percée à proximité du manchon cylindrique 4d d'un alésage 4e recevant de manière étanche un connecteur de liaison fileté 4 sur lequel est vissé l'antenne 2ç. Le connecteur de liaison fileté 4 permet de relier l'antenne 2ç avec les éléments électroniques 2a positionnés à l'intérieur de l'embase 3. The plate 4a is pierced near the cylindrical sleeve 4d of a bore 4e sealingly receiving a threaded connection connector 4 on which the antenna 2c is screwed. The threaded connection connector 4 makes it possible to connect the antenna 2c with the electronic elements 2a positioned inside the base 3.
Egalement la platine 4a est percée de trous 4t permettant le passage de vis 4s de serrage assurant la fixation étanche de ladite platine dans la seconde coque 3a de l'embase 3. Le manchon cylindrique 4d comporte à proximité de la platine 4a et sur sa périphérie externe au moins deux gorges circulaires et parallèles 4f, 4g coopérant respectivement avec des joints toriques 5a, 5b des moyens d'étanchéité 5. Also the plate 4a is pierced with holes 4t allowing the passage of screws 4s clamping ensuring the sealed attachment of said plate in the second shell 3a of the base 3. The cylindrical sleeve 4d comprises near the plate 4a and on its periphery external at least two circular and parallel grooves 4f, 4g cooperating respectively with O-rings 5a, 5b sealing means 5.
Le manchon cylindrique 4d comprend au-dessus des gorges 4f, 4g au moins deux ouvertures 4h, 4i fermées par une membrane étanche 4j. A l'intérieur du manchon cylindrique 4d et en face des ouvertures 4h, 4i sont respectivement disposés le micro 2d et le haut-parleur 2h de la radio vocale 2. The cylindrical sleeve 4d comprises above the grooves 4f, 4g at least two openings 4h, 4i closed by a sealed membrane 4j. Inside the cylindrical sleeve 4d and opposite the openings 4h, 4i are respectively arranged the microphone 2d and the speaker 2h of the voice radio 2.
Le manchon cylindrique 4d comporte au-dessus des deux ouvertures 4h, 4i une première rainure 4k en forme de double chicane débouchant d'une part à l'extérieur dudit manchon et d'autre part dans une gorge latérale inclinée 41. The cylindrical sleeve 4d comprises, above the two openings 4h, 4i, a first groove 4k in the form of a double baffle emerging on the one hand outside said sleeve and on the other hand in an inclined lateral groove 41.
Le manchon cylindrique 4d comporte suivant une direction diamétralement opposé à la première rainure 4k une seconde rainure 4m en forme de double chicane débouchant d'une part à l'extérieur dudit manchon et d'autre part dans une gorge latérale inclinée 4n. The cylindrical sleeve 4d comprises in a direction diametrically opposed to the first groove 4k a second groove 4m in the form of a double baffle opening on the one hand outside said sleeve and on the other hand in an inclined lateral groove 4n.
La première et seconde rainure 4k et 4m, ainsi que les gorges inclinées 41, 4n forment des moyens de guidage 6 du bouchon amovible 7 lors de ses rotations autour du manchon cylindrique 4d. Le couvercle 4 est constitué d'un carter de protection 4JD permettant par l'intermédiaire d'une vis 4u sa fixation sur la seconde coque 3b de l'embase 3. Le carter de protection 4JD comporte une ouverture 4ÇL pour le passage du manchon cylindrique 4d et une prolongation cylindrique 4r s'étendant verticalement pour recevoir la gaine souple 2b pourvue de l'antenne 2ç de la radio vocale 2. Le bouchon amovible 7 comporte un alésage interne non débouchant 7a pourvu de deux ergots 7b, 7ç solidaires de sa surface interne suivant des directions diamétralement opposées de manière à coopérer respectivement avec les gorges inclinées 41, 4n et les premières et secondes rainures en forme de double chicane 4k, 4m. The first and second grooves 4k and 4m, as well as the inclined grooves 41, 4n form guide means 6 of the removable cap 7 during its rotation around the cylindrical sleeve 4d. The cover 4 consists of a 4JD protection casing which, by means of a screw 4u, secures it to the second shell 3b of the base 3. The 4JD protection casing has an opening 4CL for the passage of the cylindrical sleeve 4d and a cylindrical extension 4r extending vertically to receive the flexible sheath 2b provided with the antenna 2c of the voice radio 2. The removable plug 7 has a non-through inner bore 7a provided with two lugs 7b, 7c integral with its surface internal in diametrically opposed directions so as to cooperate respectively with the inclined grooves 41, 4n and the first and second grooves in the form of double baffle 4k, 4m.
Les deux ergots 7b, 7ç, les gorges inclinées 41, 4n et les premières et secondes rainures en forme de double chicane 4k, 4m constituent les moyens de guidage 6 assurant les rotations du bouchon amovible 7 autour du manchon cylindrique 4d du couvercle 4 entre une position de fermeture et une position d'ouverture afin de permettre la mise en fonctionnement ou l'arrêt de la radio vocale 2. The two lugs 7b, 7c, the inclined grooves 41, 4n and the first and second grooves in the form of double baffle 4k, 4m constitute the guide means 6 ensuring the rotations of the removable cap 7 around the cylindrical sleeve 4d of the cover 4 between a closing position and an open position to allow the voice radio 2 to operate or stop.
On remarque que les gorges inclinées 41, 4n débouchent respectivement dans la première et seconde rainure en forme de double chicane 4k, 4m afin de limiter la rotation du bouchon amovible 7 en position d'ouverture. Note that the inclined grooves 41, 4n respectively open into the first and second groove in the form of double baffle 4k, 4m to limit the rotation of the removable plug 7 in the open position.
On note que les premières et secondes rainures en forme de double chicane 4k, 4m débouchent à l'extérieur du manchon cylindrique 4d permettant de démonter le bouchon amovible 7 dudit couvercle 4 lorsqu'un effort est appliqué sur ledit bouchon afin que les deux ergots 7b, 7ç franchissent les paliers des rainures en forme de double chicane 4k, 4m It is noted that the first and second grooves in the form of double baffle 4k, 4m open out of the cylindrical sleeve 4d for disassembling the removable cap 7 of said lid 4 when a force is applied on said plug so that the two lugs 7b , 7c cross the bearings of the grooves in the form of a double baffle 4k, 4m
Le bouchon amovible 7 comporte sur sa périphérie externe une jupe de préhension 7d permettant l'entraînement en rotation dudit bouchon autour du manchon cylindrique 4d du couvercle 4. The removable cap 7 has on its outer periphery a gripping skirt 7d for rotating said cap around the cylindrical sleeve 4d of the cover 4.
Le bouchon amovible 7 comprend dans le profil de sa jupe de préhension 7d une gorge courbe 7f permettant de recevoir la gaine souple 2b de l'antenne 2ç. La gaine souple 2b peut être bloquée à l'intérieur de la gorge courbe 7f afin de verrouiller la rotation dudit bouchon. The removable plug 7 comprises in the profile of its gripping skirt 7d a curved groove 7f for receiving the flexible sheath 2b of the antenna 2c. The flexible sheath 2b can be locked inside the curved groove 7f in order to lock the rotation of said plug.
Le bouchon amovible 7 comporte dans la gorge courbe 7f de la jupe de préhension 7d un aimant 7e permettant en fonction du sens de rotation dudit bouchon autour du manchon cylindrique 4d la mise en marche ou l'arrêt de la radio vocale 2 (figure 6). The removable plug 7 comprises in the curved groove 7f of the gripping skirt 7d a magnet 7e allowing, according to the direction of rotation of said plug around the cylindrical sleeve 4d, to start or stop the voice radio 2 (FIG. 6) .
Les moyens d'étanchéité 5 constitués par les joints toriques 5a, 5b viennent en contact avec la surface de l'alésage interne 7a du bouchon amovible 7 permettant d'assurer lors des rotations de ce dernier autour du manchon cylindrique 4d l'étanchéité du micro 2d et le haut-parleur 2h et du capteur à effet de hall 2g de la radio vocale 2 logés à l'intérieur dudit manchon cylindrique 4d. The sealing means 5 constituted by the O-rings 5a, 5b come into contact with the surface of the internal bore 7a of the removable plug 7 allowing during rotation of the latter around the cylindrical sleeve 4d, it ensures the tightness of the microphone 2d and the loudspeaker 2h and the hall effect sensor 2g of the voice radio 2 housed inside said cylindrical sleeve 4d.
L'étanchéité du bouchon 7 sur le manchon cylindrique 4d se fait grâce aux deux joints toriques 5a, 5b qui sont positionnés et espacés de quelques millimètres l'un de l'autre, permettant de sauvegarder l'étanchéité du boîtier 1 au cas où un grain de sable venait abimer le premier joint, le deuxième restant protégé grâce à l'écartement. The sealing of the plug 7 on the cylindrical sleeve 4d is done by means of the two O-rings 5a, 5b which are positioned and spaced a few millimeters apart, making it possible to safeguard the tightness of the casing 1 in the case where a grain of sand would damage the first seal, the second remaining protected by the spacing.
En position fermée, le bouchon amovible 7 repose sur un plan dur formé par la platine 4a du couvercle 4, empêchant ledit bouchon de descendre lors de l'immersion due à la dépression interne du boîtier 1 . In the closed position, the removable plug 7 rests on a hard plane formed by the plate 4a of the lid 4, preventing said plug from coming down during immersion due to the internal depression of the case 1.
Le déverrouillage du bouchon 7 est réalisé d'une part en libérant la gaine souple 2b de l'antenne 2ç de la gorge courbe 7f de la jupe de préhension 7d et d'autre part en appuyant avec la paume de la main sur la jupe de préhension 7d. Ce déverrouillage provoque simultanément et du fait de l'inclinaison des gorges 41, 4n d'une part une rotation d'un quart de tour du bouchon 7 et d'autre part une élévation de quelques centimètres dudit bouchon 7 autour du manchon cylindrique 4d. La rotation du bouchon 7 autour du manchon cylindrique 4d permet la mise en marche de la radio grâce 2 à l'aimant 7e qui passe devant le capteur à effet de Hall ou ILS 2g assurant le déclenchement de ladite radio 2. Unlocking the plug 7 is performed on the one hand by releasing the flexible sheath 2b of the antenna 2c of the curved groove 7f of the gripping skirt 7d and secondly by pressing with the palm of the hand on the skirt of the gripping 7d. This unlocking causes simultaneously and due to the inclination of the grooves 41, 4n on the one hand a rotation of a quarter turn of the plug 7 and on the other hand an elevation of a few centimeters of said plug 7 around the cylindrical sleeve 4d. The rotation of the plug 7 around the cylindrical sleeve 4d allows the radio to be turned on thanks to the magnet 7e which passes in front of the Hall sensor or ILS 2g triggering said radio 2.
Le bouchon 7 en montant autour du manchon cylindrique 4d, découvre les deux ouvertures étanches 4h, 4i derrières lesquelles sont disposés respectivement le micro 2d, le haut-parleur 2h et le capteur à effet de Hall 2g. The plug 7, mounted around the cylindrical sleeve 4d, discovers the two sealed openings 4h, 4i behind which the micro 2d, the loudspeaker 2h and the Hall effect sensor 2g are respectively disposed.
On note que le boîtier 1 comporte deux niveaux d'étanchéité indépendant. Le premier niveau d'étanchéité est prévu par le joint torique 4ç agencé dans la platine 4a du couvercle 4 qui lorsque ce dernier est fixé vient fermer de manière totalement étanche l'embase 3 sécurisant les éléments électroniques 2a de la radio vocale 2 se trouvant à l'intérieur. Note that the housing 1 has two levels of independent sealing. The first level of tightness is provided by the O-ring 4c arranged in the plate 4a of the cover 4 which, when the latter is attached, completely closes the base 3 securing the electronic elements 2a of the voice radio 2 located at inside.
Ce premier niveau d'étanchéité est complété par le connecteur étanche 2f placé dans la jupe 3f qui permet également d'isoler de manière étanche les éléments électroniques 2a se trouvant dans l'embase 3, des autres éléments électroniques constitués par micro 2d, le haut-parleur 2h et le capteur à effet de Hall 2g se trouvant dans le manchon 4d du couvercle 4. Le second niveau d'étanchéité est prévu par les joints toriques 5a, 5b des moyens d'étanchéité 5 et du joint torique 3i qui permettent d'assurer l'étanchéité du micro 2d, du haut-parleur 2h et du capteur à effet de Hall 2g de l'extérieur. Il doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple, et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution décrits par tout autre équivalent This first level of tightness is completed by the waterproof connector 2f placed in the skirt 3f which also makes it possible to isolate in a sealed manner the electronic elements 2a found in the base 3, the other electronic elements constituted by micro 2d, the top 2h and the Hall effect sensor 2g located in the sleeve 4d of the cover 4. The second level of sealing is provided by the O-rings 5a, 5b of the sealing means 5 and the O-ring 3i which allow ensure the tightness of the microphone 2d, the loudspeaker 2h and the Hall effect sensor 2g from the outside. It must also be understood that the foregoing description has been given only by way of example, and that it in no way limits the scope of the invention of which we would not go out by replacing the details of execution. described by any other equivalent
