Titre de l'invention : Engin de manutention de charge et/ou de personne Title of the invention: Load and/or person handling machine
[0001] La présente invention concerne un engin de manutention de charge et/ou de personne. [0001] The present invention relates to a load and/or person handling machine.
[0002] Elle concerne en particulier un engin de manutention de charge et/ou de personne comprenant un châssis automoteur dit roulant équipé de roues avant et arrière pour son déplacement au sol, un système de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par ledit châssis, au moins un dispositif d’éclairage et une commande d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur positionnable à distance du châssis, le châssis automoteur, qui se développe longitudinalement depuis l’avant vers l'arrière du châssis, comprenant sur au moins l’un de ses flancs latéraux, pris par rapport à la direction avant /arrière du châssis, au moins un compartiment technique et un capot de fermeture dudit compartiment technique monté mobile entre une position ouverte et une position fermée. [0002] It relates in particular to a load and/or person handling machine comprising a so-called rolling self-propelled chassis equipped with front and rear wheels for its movement on the ground, a load and/or person handling system carried by said chassis, at least one lighting device and a drive control for movement of the self-propelled chassis positionable at a distance from the chassis, the self-propelled chassis, which develops longitudinally from the front towards the rear of the chassis, comprising on at least one of its lateral sides, taken in relation to the front/rear direction of the chassis, at least one technical compartment and a closing cover of said technical compartment mounted movably between an open position and a closed position.
[0003] Un engin de manutention de charge et/ou de personne équipé d’un compartiment technique et de dispositifs d’éclairage est connu comme l’illustrent les documents US 2018/265340 et US 2018/362313. Un tel dispositif d’éclairage peut équiper le panier d’une nacelle élévatrice comme illustré dans le document US 2013/187785. En raison de leurs coûts, la plage horaire d’utilisation de ces engins augmente et il est désormais fréquent d'utiliser de tels engins de manutention la nuit. La difficulté est, pour un opérateur, de commander en déplacement un tel engin la nuit, en particulier lorsque la commande de l’engin s’opère à partir d’une commande positionnée à distance du châssis de l’engin. [0003] A load and/or person handling machine equipped with a technical compartment and lighting devices is known as illustrated in documents US 2018/265340 and US 2018/362313. Such a lighting device can equip the basket with a lifting platform as illustrated in document US 2013/187785. Due to their costs, the time slot for using these machines is increasing and it is now common to use such handling machines at night. The difficulty is, for an operator, to control such a machine while moving at night, in particular when the machine is controlled from a control positioned remotely from the chassis of the machine.
[0004] Un but de l’invention est de proposer un engin de manutention du type précité dont la conception permet une utilisation optimale de l’engin en particulier la nuit, ou lorsque les conditions climatiques réduisent la visibilité. [0004] One aim of the invention is to propose a handling machine of the aforementioned type whose design allows optimal use of the machine, particularly at night, or when climatic conditions reduce visibility.
[0005] A cet effet, l’invention a pour objet un engin de manutention de charge et/ou de personne, ledit engin comprenant un châssis automoteur dit roulant équipé de roues avant et arrière pour son déplacement au sol, un système de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par ledit châssis, au moins un dispositif d’éclairage et une commande d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur positionnable à distance du châssis, le châssis automoteur qui se développe longitudinalement depuis l’avant vers l’arrière du châssis comprenant sur au moins l’un de ses flancs latéraux, pris par rapport à la direction avant /arrière du châssis, au moins un compartiment technique et un capot de fermeture dudit compartiment technique monté mobile entre une position ouverte et une position fermée, caractérisé en ce que le ou au moins l’un des dispositifs d’éclairage de l’engin est monté sur le capot de fermeture du ou d’au moins l’un des compartiments techniques, et en ce que ledit dispositif d’éclairage est configuré pour, en position fermée du capot, éclairer une partie de l’espace disposé en arrière des roues avant pris par rapport à la direction avant/arrière du châssis, et, en position ouverte, éclairer l’intérieur du compartiment technique. [0005] For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a machine for handling loads and/or people, said machine comprising a self-propelled chassis called a rolling chassis equipped with front and rear wheels for its movement on the ground, a system for handling load and/or person carried by said chassis, at least one device lighting and a drive control for movement of the self-propelled chassis positionable at a distance from the chassis, the self-propelled chassis which develops longitudinally from the front towards the rear of the chassis comprising on at least one of its lateral sides, taken relative to the front/rear direction of the chassis, at least one technical compartment and a closing cover of said technical compartment mounted movably between an open position and a closed position, characterized in that the or at least one of the devices lighting of the machine is mounted on the closing hood of the or at least one of the technical compartments, and in that said lighting device is configured to, in the closed position of the hood, illuminate part of the space located behind the front wheels taken in relation to the front/rear direction of the chassis, and, in the open position, illuminate the interior of the technical compartment.
[0006] La présence d’un dispositif d’éclairage sur le capot et sa conception permettent à la fois de faciliter la conduite à distance du châssis de l’engin et la maintenance dudit engin. La conception du dispositif d’éclairage permet en effet, en éclairant la partie en arrière des roues avant à l’état fermé du capot, d’aider au guidage des roues arrière en particulier quand un tel engin doit être amené sur une rampe de chargement équipant un véhicule de transport dudit engin. Cette conception du dispositif d’éclairage permet, à l’état ouvert du capot, d’intervenir sur des organes techniques, tels que des actionneurs, classiquement logés à l’intérieur du compartiment technique sans avoir à disposer d’un éclairage supplémentaire. [0006] The presence of a lighting device on the hood and its design make it possible to facilitate driving remotely from the chassis of the machine and the maintenance of said machine. The design of the lighting device makes it possible, by illuminating the part behind the front wheels when the hood is closed, to help guide the rear wheels, particularly when such a machine must be brought onto a loading ramp. equipping a transport vehicle with said machine. This design of the lighting device allows, in the open state of the cover, to intervene on technical components, such as actuators, conventionally housed inside the technical compartment without having to have additional lighting.

[0009] Selon un mode de réalisation de l’invention, le capot de fermeture est, pour son montage mobile entre une position ouverte et une position fermée, un capot pivotant monté mobile à pivotement autour d’un axe dit longitudinal s’étendant suivant la direction avant/arrière du châssis. [0009] According to one embodiment of the invention, the closing cover is, for its movable mounting between an open position and a closed position, a pivoting cover mounted movable to pivot around a so-called longitudinal axis extending along the front/rear steering of the chassis.
[0010] Selon un mode de réalisation de l’invention, à l’état positionné à distance du châssis, la commande d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur présente au moins une configuration dans laquelle elle est montée sur le système de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par ledit châssis. [0010] According to one embodiment of the invention, in the state positioned at a distance from the chassis, the movement drive control of the self-propelled chassis has at least one configuration in which it is mounted on the load and/or person handling system carried by said chassis.
[0011] Selon un mode de réalisation de l’invention, le système de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par ledit châssis comprend au moins un bras de levage couplé à l’une de ses extrémités au châssis et portant, à son extrémité opposée, un panier à l’intérieur duquel un opérateur est apte à prendre place, et la commande d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur présente, à l’état positionné à distance du châssis, au moins une configuration dans laquelle elle est couplée audit panier. [0011] According to one embodiment of the invention, the load and/or person handling system carried by said chassis comprises at least one lifting arm coupled at one of its ends to the chassis and carrying, at its opposite end, a basket inside which an operator is able to take place, and the drive control for moving the self-propelled chassis has, in the state positioned at a distance from the chassis, at least one configuration in which it is coupled said basket.
[0012] Selon un mode de réalisation de l’invention, la commande d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur est une télécommande avec un rayon d’action par rapport au châssis au moins égal à deux mètres. [0012] According to one embodiment of the invention, the movement drive control of the self-propelled chassis is a remote control with a radius of action relative to the chassis at least equal to two meters.
[0013] Brève description des dessins [0013] Brief description of the drawings
[0014] L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivante d'exemples de réalisation, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels : [0014] The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description of exemplary embodiments, with reference to the appended drawings in which:
[0015] [Fig. 1] représente une vue en perspective % avant d’un engin conforme à l’invention à l’état fermé du capot du compartiment technique ; [0015] [Fig. 1] represents a % front perspective view of a machine conforming to the invention in the closed state of the cover of the technical compartment;
[0016] [Fig. 2] représente une vue en perspective prise de face d’un engin conforme à l’invention à l’état fermé du capot du compartiment technique ; [0016] [Fig. 2] represents a perspective view taken from the front of a machine conforming to the invention in the closed state of the cover of the technical compartment;
[0017] [Fig. 3] représente une vue schématique du capot et du dispositif d’éclairage associé à l’état fermé du capot ; [0017] [Fig. 3] represents a schematic view of the cover and the lighting device associated with the closed state of the cover;
[0018] [Fig. 4] représente une vue en perspective % avant d’un engin conforme à l’invention à l’état ouvert du capot du compartiment technique ; [0018] [Fig. 4] represents a % front perspective view of a machine conforming to the invention in the open state of the cover of the technical compartment;
[0019] [Fig. 5] représente une vue en perspective, prise de face, d’un engin conforme à l’invention, à l’état ouvert du capot du compartiment technique ; [0019] [Fig. 5] represents a perspective view, taken from the front, of a machine conforming to the invention, in the open state of the cover of the technical compartment;
[0020] [Fig. 6] représente une vue schématique du capot et du dispositif d’éclairage associé à l’état ouvert du capot. [0021] Comme mentionné ci-dessus, l’invention a pour objet un engin 1 de manutention de charge et/ou de personne, qui peut être conforme à celui représenté par exemple à la figure 1 . [0020] [Fig. 6] represents a schematic view of the hood and the lighting device associated with the open state of the hood. As mentioned above, the subject of the invention is a machine 1 for handling loads and/or people, which may conform to that shown for example in Figure 1.
[0022] Cet engin 1 de manutention de charge et/ou de personne peut permettre exclusivement la manutention de charge ou exclusivement la manutention de personne ou les deux, selon sa conception. This load and/or person handling machine 1 can exclusively allow load handling or exclusively person handling or both, depending on its design.
[0023] Cet engin 1 comprend un châssis 2 roulant avec une partie avant et une partie arrière. Les parties avant et arrière de ce châssis sont prises par rapport au sens d’avancement du châssis 2. This machine 1 comprises a rolling chassis 2 with a front part and a rear part. The front and rear parts of this chassis are taken in relation to the direction of advancement of chassis 2.
[0024] Dans les exemples représentés, ce châssis 2 est équipé de deux roues 3 avant disposées au niveau de la partie avant du châssis 2 et de deux roues 4 arrière disposées au niveau de la partie arrière du châssis 2. [0024] In the examples shown, this chassis 2 is equipped with two front wheels 3 arranged at the front part of the chassis 2 and two rear wheels 4 arranged at the rear part of the chassis 2.
[0025] Ce châssis 2 est équipé d’un groupe moteur d’entraînement en déplacement de l’engin par entraînement en rotation des roues de l’engin. Ce groupe moteur ne sera pas décrit, car il est bien connu à ceux versés dans cet art, et sa conception importe peu dans la présente invention. This chassis 2 is equipped with a motor group for driving the movement of the machine by rotating the wheels of the machine. This power unit will not be described, because it is well known to those skilled in this art, and its design is of little importance in the present invention.
[0026] L’engin 1 de manutention comprend encore un système 5 de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par le châssis 2. [0026] The handling machine 1 also includes a system 5 for handling loads and/or people carried by the chassis 2.
[0027] Dans les exemples représentés, le système 5 de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par le châssis 2 comprend au moins un bras 51 de levage couplé à l’une de ses extrémités au châssis 2 et portant à son extrémité opposée un panier 52 à l’intérieur duquel un opérateur est apte à prendre place. La présence d’un panier permet la manutention de personne et éventuellement de charge. En variante, le panier peut être remplacé par un godet, des fourches de manutention ou tout autre accessoire n’autorisant qu’une manutention de charge. [0027] In the examples shown, the load and/or person handling system 5 carried by the chassis 2 comprises at least one lifting arm 51 coupled at one of its ends to the chassis 2 and carrying at its opposite end a basket 52 inside which an operator can take a seat. The presence of a basket allows the handling of people and possibly loads. Alternatively, the basket can be replaced by a bucket, handling forks or any other accessory allowing only load handling.
[0028] Le bras 51 de levage est un bras pivotant monté à pivotement autour d’un axe dit horizontal, parallèle au plan d’appui au sol des roues de l’engin à l’état positionné de l’engin sur un sol plat horizontal. The lifting arm 51 is a pivoting arm pivotally mounted around a so-called horizontal axis, parallel to the plane of support on the ground of the wheels of the machine in the positioned state of the machine on a flat ground horizontal.
[0029] Le bras 51 de levage est ainsi monté mobile à pivotement entre une position basse rapprochée du sol et une position haute écartée du sol. [0030] Le châssis 2 se développe longitudinalement depuis l’avant vers l’arrière du châssis 2 et le bras 51 de levage s’étend le long de cet axe longitudinal. The lifting arm 51 is thus mounted movable to pivot between a low position close to the ground and a high position away from the ground. The chassis 2 develops longitudinally from the front towards the rear of the chassis 2 and the lifting arm 51 extends along this longitudinal axis.
[0031] Le groupe moteur décrit ci-dessus peut permettre l’actionnement d’une ou plusieurs pompes aidant au fonctionnement d’actionneurs, tels que des vérins, d’entraînement en déplacement du bras 51 de levage. À nouveau, un tel fonctionnement ne sera pas décrit, car il est bien connu à ceux versés dans cet art. The motor group described above can allow the actuation of one or more pumps assisting in the operation of actuators, such as cylinders, driving the movement of the lifting arm 51. Again, such operation will not be described, because it is well known to those skilled in this art.
[0032] L’engin 1 comprend encore une commande 6 d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis 2 automoteur, positionnable à distance du châssis 2. Cette commande 6 peut prendre la forme d’un pupitre ou console de commande, comme dans l’exemple représenté. The machine 1 also includes a control 6 for driving the movement of the self-propelled chassis 2, positionable at a distance from the chassis 2. This control 6 can take the form of a console or control console, as in the example represented.
[0033] Des organes de commande tels que des leviers, boutons, manettes ou autres équipent une telle commande 6 et permettent notamment, la commande d’entraînement en déplacement au sol du châssis 2 par entraînement en rotation des roues. [0033] Control members such as levers, buttons, joysticks or others equip such a control 6 and in particular allow the driving control of movement on the ground of the chassis 2 by driving the wheels in rotation.
[0034] Cette commande 6, qui permet une commande de déplacement du châssis 2 à distance du châssis 2, peut être positionnable dans le panier 52. This control 6, which allows movement of the chassis 2 to be controlled remotely from the chassis 2, can be positioned in the basket 52.
[0035] En effet, à l’état positionné à distance du châssis 2, la commande 6 d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis 2 automoteur peut présenter au moins une configuration dans laquelle elle est montée sur le système 5 de manutention de charge et/ou de personne porté par le châssis 2. [0035] Indeed, in the state positioned at a distance from the chassis 2, the control 6 for driving the movement of the self-propelled chassis 2 can have at least one configuration in which it is mounted on the load handling system 5 and/or or person carried by the chassis 2.
[0036] Ainsi, cette commande 6 d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis 2 automoteur peut présenter, à l’état positionné à distance du châssis 2, au moins une configuration dans laquelle elle est couplée au panier 52. [0036] Thus, this control 6 for driving movement of the self-propelled chassis 2 can present, in the state positioned at a distance from the chassis 2, at least one configuration in which it is coupled to the basket 52.
[0037] Cette commande 6 peut également être une télécommande actionnable par un opérateur au sol, comme illustré à la figure 2. Dans ce mode de réalisation, la commande 6 d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis automoteur peut être une télécommande avec un rayon d’action par rapport au châssis 2, de préférence au moins égal à deux mètres. [0037] This control 6 can also be a remote control operable by an operator on the ground, as illustrated in Figure 2. In this embodiment, the control 6 for driving the movement of the self-propelled chassis can be a remote control with a radius d action relative to the chassis 2, preferably at least equal to two meters.
[0038] Le châssis 2 peut être équipé en sus d’une cabine de pilotage à l’intérieur de laquelle un opérateur peut prendre place. [0039] Classiquement, le châssis 2 automoteur comprend, sur au moins l’un de ses flancs 7 latéraux ou côtés, c'est-à-dire la partie du châssis qui s’étend depuis la partie avant vers la partie arrière du châssis 2, au moins un compartiment 8 technique. Un compartiment 8 technique peut être prévu au niveau de chaque flanc 7, comme dans l’exemple représenté, ou au niveau d’un seul des flancs 7 latéraux de l’engin. [0038] Chassis 2 can be additionally equipped with a pilot's cabin inside which an operator can take a seat. Conventionally, the self-propelled chassis 2 comprises, on at least one of its lateral or side flanks 7, that is to say the part of the chassis which extends from the front part towards the rear part of the chassis 2, at least one technical compartment 8. A technical compartment 8 can be provided at each side 7, as in the example shown, or at only one of the lateral sides 7 of the machine.
[0040] Ce compartiment 8 technique loge par exemple le groupe moteur, des pompes ou autres. L'intérieur du compartiment 8 technique est accessible par une ouverture latérale fermée par un capot 9. This technical compartment 8 houses for example the motor unit, pumps or others. The interior of the technical compartment 8 is accessible through a side opening closed by a cover 9.
[0041] Ce capot 9 de fermeture est, dans les exemples représentés, un capot pivotant monté mobile à pivotement autour d’un axe XX’ dit longitudinal, s’étendant suivant la direction avant/arrière du châssis 2 entre une position ouverte et une position fermée. This closing cover 9 is, in the examples shown, a pivoting cover mounted movable to pivot around a so-called longitudinal axis XX', extending in the front/rear direction of the chassis 2 between an open position and a closed position.
[0042] Lors de son déplacement à pivotement pour le passage de la position fermée à la position ouverte, ce capot 9 de fermeture est déplacé à pivotement vers le haut. Un opérateur vient donc se positionner sous le capot 9 de fermeture pour pouvoir intervenir sur des éléments disposés dans le compartiment 8 technique. [0042] During its pivoting movement to move from the closed position to the open position, this closing cover 9 is pivoted upwards. An operator therefore positions himself under the closing cover 9 to be able to work on elements placed in the technical compartment 8.
[0043] L’engin 1 comprend encore un ou plusieurs dispositifs d’éclairage dont au moins un, représenté en 10 aux figures, est monté sur le capot 9 de fermeture du ou d’au moins l’un, de préférence, de chacun des compartiments 8 techniques. The machine 1 further comprises one or more lighting devices, at least one of which, shown at 10 in the figures, is mounted on the closing cover 9 of the or at least one, preferably, of each 8 technical compartments.
[0044] Ce dispositif 10 d’éclairage est configuré pour, en position fermée du capot 9, éclairer une partie de l’espace 11 disposé en arrière des roues avant 3 pris par rapport à la direction avant/arrière du châssis 2 et, en position ouverte, éclairer l’intérieur du compartiment 8 technique. This lighting device 10 is configured to, in the closed position of the cover 9, illuminate a part of the space 11 arranged behind the front wheels 3 taken with respect to the front/rear direction of the chassis 2 and, in open position, illuminate the interior of technical compartment 8.
[0045] Dans les exemples représentés, le dispositif 10 d’éclairage comprend un bandeau de diodes électroluminescentes. Au moins une partie du dispositif 10 d’éclairage est fixée par une patte 12 au capot 9, comme illustré de manière schématique aux figures 3 et 6. [0045] In the examples shown, the lighting device 10 comprises a strip of light-emitting diodes. At least part of the lighting device 10 is fixed by a tab 12 to the cover 9, as illustrated schematically in Figures 3 and 6.
[0046] En pratique, le fonctionnement d’un tel engin 1 est similaire à celui d’un engin de l’état de la technique. La présence d’un dispositif 10 d’éclairage au niveau du capot 9 de fermeture du ou de chaque compartiment 8 technique permet, à l’état positionné de la commande 6 d’entraînement en déplacement du châssis 2 à distance du châssis 2, de commander en déplacement l’engin 1 la nuit, en toute sécurité, notamment en vue d’un entraînement en déplacement de l’engin 1 sur une rampe inclinée. [0046] In practice, the operation of such a machine 1 is similar to that of a machine from the state of the art. The presence of a lighting device 10 at the level of the cover 9 for closing the or each technical compartment 8 allows, in the positioned state of the control 6 for driving movement of the chassis 2 to distance from the chassis 2, to control the movement of the machine 1 at night, in complete safety, in particular with a view to training the movement of the machine 1 on an inclined ramp.
[0047] La présence de ce dispositif 10 d’éclairage permet encore d’intervenir sur l’engin 1 en pleine nuit, au niveau du ou de l’un des compartiments 8 techniques, sans avoir besoin d’éclairage complémentaire pour visualiser l’intérieur dudit compartiment 8 technique. [0047] The presence of this lighting device 10 also makes it possible to intervene on the machine 1 in the middle of the night, at the level of the or one of the technical compartments 8, without the need for additional lighting to visualize the interior of said technical compartment 8.
