Description

La présente invention est relative à une attache permettant d'accrocher un objet sur un support, comme par exemple un cadre sur un mur, ainsi qu'un appareil pour poser de telles attaches.The present invention relates to a fastener for hanging an object on a support, such as a frame on a wall, and an apparatus for placing such fasteners.

Il existe actuellement un certain nombre de moyens pour accrocher des objets sur un support comme par exemple des anneaux, qui sont fixés, éventuellement de façon mobile, à la partie arrière de l'objet. L'apparition de matériaux synthé­tiques constituant la face-arrière des cadres entraîne l'uti­lisation d'anneaux, qui sont fixés au moyen d'attaches sur ces matériaux : en fait l'attache transperce de part en part la couche de matériau, ce qui oblige à recouvrir la face-avant de ce matériau d'une épaisseur de carton ou d'un matériau équivalent afin de rendre cette face totalement lisse et plane avant d'y fixer une gravure ou une photographie par exemple.There are currently a number of means for hanging objects on a support such as rings, which are fixed, possibly movably, to the rear part of the object. The appearance of synthetic materials constituting the rear face of the frames involves the use of rings, which are fixed by means of fasteners on these materials: in fact the fastener pierces right through the layer of material, which requires covering the front face of this material with a thickness of cardboard or an equivalent material in order to make this face completely smooth and flat before attaching an engraving or a photograph for example.

Aussi, un des buts de la présente invention, est-il de proposer une attache qui permet d'éviter la pose d'une feuille entre la paroi de fond et le document à encadrer.Also, one of the aims of the present invention is to provide a fastener which makes it possible to avoid the laying of a sheet between the back wall and the document to be framed.

Un autre but de l'invention est de proposer une telle attache qui puisse être enfoncée dans tous types de maté­riaux constituant la paroi de fond d'un encadrement.Another object of the invention is to provide such a fastener which can be inserted into all types of material constituting the bottom wall of a frame.

La présente invention a également pour but de propo­ser un appareil pour poser ces attaches , qui soit aussi simple et fiable que possible.The present invention also aims to provide an apparatus for fitting these fasteners, which is as simple and reliable as possible.

Ces buts, ainsi que d'autres qui apparaîtront par la suite, sont atteints par une attache pour accrocher un objet sur un support, constituée par une lamelle métallique, qui est caractérisée, selon la présente invention, par le fait qu'elle comprend une première partie comportant un moyen d'accrochage, une deuxième partie formant un angle obtus avec cette première partie, et une troisième partie qui est repliée le long de la deuxième partie de telle sorte que ladite troisième partie ne soit pas située dans l'angle obtus, et qui comporte des moyens de pénétration dans l'objet à accrocher.These aims, as well as others which will appear subsequently, are achieved by a fastener for hanging an object on a support, constituted by a metal strip, which is characterized, according to the present invention, by the fact that it comprises a first part comprising a hooking means, a second part forming an obtuse angle with this first part, and a third part which is folded along the second part so that said third part is not located in the obtuse angle, and which includes means of penetration into the object to be hung.

De préférence, la deuxième partie comporte une découpe centrale qui permet de placer l'attache sur un appareil de pose et de l'enfoncer dans l'objet à accrocher.Preferably, the second part has a central cutout which allows the fastener to be placed on a fitting device and inserted into the object to be hung.

Avantageusement, le moyen d'accrochage est une lumière pratiquée dans la première partie, qui pourra ainsi coopérer avec des moyens de suspension tels que crochets et pitons, enfoncés dans le support sur lequel l'objet doit être accroché.Advantageously, the attachment means is a light made in the first part, which can thus cooperate with suspension means such as hooks and pegs, inserted into the support on which the object is to be hung.

De préférence, les moyens de pénétration sont constitués par un bord biseauté, rectiligne ou arrondi, déter­minant l'extrémité libre de la troisième partie, ou par une pointe, dont le sommet est situé dans le plan de symétrie de l'attache et qui forme cette troisième partie, ou encore par deux pointes, qui prolongent la deuxième partie de part et d'autre de la découpe centrale et qui forment cette même troi­sième partie.Preferably, the penetration means are constituted by a beveled edge, straight or rounded, determining the free end of the third part, or by a point, the apex of which is located in the plane of symmetry of the fastener and which forms this third part, or again by two points, which extend the second part on either side of the central cutout and which form this same third part.

L'angle obtus formé par les première et deu­xième parties est avantageusement compris entre 145 et 165 degrés, et de préférence entre 150 et 155 degrés.The obtuse angle formed by the first and second parts is advantageously between 145 and 165 degrees, and preferably between 150 and 155 degrees.

Ainsi qu'il a été dit, la présente invention concerne également un appareil pour poser ces attaches , qui comprend un socle sensiblement plan comportant un moyen pour placer un objet dans lequel doit être enfoncée une attache ; une potence reposant sur ce socle ; un bloc basculant de forme sensiblement rectangulaire, dont une extrémité est articulée sur la potence autour d'un axe, entre une position haute, dite de repos, et une position basse, dite de contact ; un moyen d'actionnement comprenant, d'une part, une tête qui est arti­culée sur l'autre extrémité de la pièce mobile autour d'un axe et qui peut prendre deux positions : une position arrière, dite position de chargement, et une position avant, dite position d'enfoncement, et d'autre part, un levier qui est relié à cette tête et permet de faire pivoter le bloc basculant autour de son axe afin de le faire passer de la position de repos à la position de contact, ainsi que de faire pivoter la tête autour de son axe afin de la faire passer de la position de chargement à la position d'enfoncement, ladite tête comportant sur sa face supérieure, celle tournée vers un utilisateur lorsqu'elle est en position de chargement et le bloc basculant en position de repos, un moyen de poussée coopérant avec la découpe centrale de l'attache ainsi qu'un moyen pour maintenir l'attache sur cette tête ; des premiers moyens de rappel du bloc basculant afin de le faire revenir à sa position de repos et des seconds moyens de rappel de la tête, plus rigides que les premiers moyens de rappel, afin de faire revenir celle-ci à sa position de chargement.As has been said, the present invention also relates to an apparatus for fitting these fasteners, which comprises a substantially flat base comprising means for placing an object in which a fastener is to be inserted; a gallows resting on this base; a tilting block of substantially rectangular shape, one end of which is articulated on the bracket about an axis, between a high position, called the rest position, and a low position, called the contact position; an actuating means comprising, on the one hand, a head which is articulated on the other end of the movable part around an axis and which can take two positions: a rear position, called the loading position, and a position front, called the insertion position, and on the other hand, a lever which is connected to this head and makes it possible to pivot the rocking block around its axis in order to make it pass from the rest position to the contact position, as well as to rotate the head around its axis in order to make it pass from the loading position to the insertion position, said head comprising on its upper face, that facing towards a user when it is in the loading position and the block tilting in the rest position, a pushing means cooperating with the central cutout of the fastener as well as a means for holding the fastener on this head ; first means for returning the tilting block in order to return it to its rest position and second means for returning the head, which are more rigid than the first return means, in order to return the latter to its loading position.

Avantageusement, le moyen pour maintenir l'attache sur la tête est un aimant.Advantageously, the means for maintaining the attachment on the head is a magnet.

De préférence, la potence est constituée par deux flasques parallèles entre elles et entre lesquelles est disposé le bloc basculant constitué par deux éléments parallè­les entre eux et sensiblement rectangulaires entre lesquels sont notamment situés les moyens d'actionnement.Preferably, the bracket is constituted by two flanges parallel to each other and between which is disposed the rocking block constituted by two elements which are parallel to each other and substantially rectangular between which are in particular the actuating means.

Avantageusement, cet appareil comprend des axes de butée haute et basse disposés entre les deux flasques de la potence, qui déterminent les positions haute et basse entre lesquelles se déplace par rotation le bloc basculant, ainsi qu'une butée disposée entre les deux éléments du bloc basculant déterminant la position arrière de la tête et un plot,qui est porté par cette tête et qui coopère avec un axe situé entre les deux éléments précités, pour déterminer la position avant de cette tête. Cette butée et ce plot sont réglables.Advantageously, this device comprises high and low stop axes arranged between the two flanges of the bracket, which determine the high and low positions between which the tilting block rotates, as well as a stop disposed between the two elements of the block tilting determining the rear position of the head and a stud, which is carried by this head and which cooperates with an axis located between the two aforementioned elements, to determine the front position of this head. This stop and this pad are adjustable.

De préférence, les premiers moyens de rappel sont constitués par un premier ressort hélicoïdal, dont une extrémité est fixée sur une première barre disposée entre les deux flasques de la potence et l'autre est prolongée par un fil qui passe au-dessus de l'axe de rotation du bloc basculant et est attaché sur une seconde barre située entre les éléments du bloc basculant. Les seconds moyens de rappel sont constitués par un second ressort hélicoïdal, dont une extrémité est fixée sur la seconde barre et l'autre extrémité à la face inférieure de la tête, au voisinage de la jonction de celle-ci avec le levier.Preferably, the first return means are constituted by a first helical spring, one end of which is fixed to a first bar disposed between the two flanges of the bracket and the other is extended by a wire which passes over the axis of rotation of the rocking block and is attached to a second bar located between the elements of the rocking block. The second return means consist of a second helical spring, one end of which is fixed to the second bar and the other end to the underside of the head, in the vicinity of the junction of the latter with the lever.

Ainsi qu'on peut le voir sur les figures 1 et 2, relatives à un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, une attache pour accro­cher un objet sur un support est constituée par une lamelle métallique, désignée dans son ensemble par la référence 1. Celle-ci est composée de trois parties : une première partie 2, qui comporte une lumière 3 per­mettant l'accrochage sur un moyen de suspension tel qu'un piton ou un crochet ; une deuxième partie 4 faisant un angle obtus d'environ 152 degrés et une troisième partie 5, qui est repliée le long de la deuxième partie 4, de telle sorte qu'elle ne soit pas située dans l'angle obtus défini par les première 2 et deuxiè­me 4 parties.As can be seen in Figures 1 and 2, relating to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a fastener for hanging an object on a support is constituted by a metal strip, designated as a whole by the reference 1 This is made up of three parts: a first part 2, which includes a light 3 allowing it to be hooked onto a suspension means such as a peg or a hook; a second part 4 forming an obtuse angle of approximately 152 degrees and a third part 5, which is folded along the second part 4, so that it is not located in the obtuse angle defined by the first 2 and second 4 parts.

La deuxième partie 4 comprend une découpe centra­le 6 qui, dans cette réalisation, débouche dans la pliure 7 reliant cette deuxième partie 4 et la troisième partie 5.The second part 4 comprises a central cutout 6 which, in this embodiment, opens into the fold 7 connecting this second part 4 and the third part 5.

Cette troisième partie 5 est, selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, constituée par deux pointes 5a et 5b, qui prolongent la deuxième partie 4 de part et d'au­tre de la découpe centrale 6. C'est l'enfoncement de ces deux pointes dans un objet, qui permettra la fixation de cette attache dans cet objet et par suite d'accrocher ce dernier sur un support.This third part 5 is, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, constituted by two points 5 a and 5 b , which extend the second part 4 on either side of the central cutout 6. It is the insertion of these two points into an object, which will allow the attachment of this fastener in this object and consequently to hang the latter on a support.

La troisième partie 5 peut également comporter comme moyen de pénétration, un bord biseauté rectiligne 8, ou un bord arrondi et biseauté 9, ou encore une seule pointe 10, comme représenté respectivement aux figures 3, 4 et 5.The third part 5 may also include as a means of penetration, a straight beveled edge 8, or a rounded and beveled edge 9, or even a single point 10, as shown respectively in FIGS. 3, 4 and 5.

L'angle obtus entre les première 2 et deuxième 4 parties de la lamelle métallique 1, est tel qu'il permet d'en­foncer la troisième partie 5 dans un objet 31 au moyen de l'appareil décrit ci-après, tout en étant suffisamment décollé de cet objet afin d'en permettre l'accrochage.The obtuse angle between the first 2 and second 4 parts of the metal strip 1, is such that it allows the third part 5 to be inserted into an object 31 by means of the apparatus described below, while being sufficiently detached from this object to allow it to hang.

Ainsi qu'il a été dit précédemment, la présente invention concerne également un appareil pour poser des attaches telles que celle décrite ci-dessus; cet appareil comprend, ain­si qu'on peut le voir sur les figures 6 à 10 notamment, un socle 11,qui est plan et comporte une réglette 12 contre laquelle on viendra placer l'objet 31 dans lequel doit être enfoncée une attache.As mentioned above, the present invention also relates to an apparatus for fitting fasteners such as that described above; this device comprises, as can be seen in Figures 6 to 10 in particular, a base 11, which is flat and includes a strip 12 against which we will place the object 31 in which must be pressed a fastener.

Sur ce socle 11 repose une potence 13, qui est constituée de deux flasques 13a et 13b parallèles entre elles.On this base 11 rests a bracket 13, which consists of two flanges 13 a and 13 b parallel to each other.

Cet appareil comprend également un bloc basculant 14, qui est constitué de deux éléments de forme rectangulaire 14a et 14b : ces derniers sont articulés par une de leurs extrémités sur la potence 13 autour d'un axe 15. De ce fait, le bloc basculant 14 peut tourner autour de cet axe 15 entre une position haute, dite de repos, et une position basse, dite de contact. A l'autre extrémité du bloc basculant 14, est articulée autour d'un axe 16 parallèle à l'axe 15, la tête 17 d'un moyen d'actionnement 18 : elle peut ainsi prendre une position arrière, dite de chargement, et une position avant, dite d'enfoncement. Le moyen d'actionnement 18 comprend égale­ment un levier 19 solidaire de la tête 17. Ce levier 19, lorsque le bloc basculant 14 est en position de repos et ladite tête 17 en position de chargement, est sensiblement perpendi­culaire au bloc basculant 14 et s'étend au-dessus de la poten­ce 13.This device also includes a tilting block 14, which is made up of two rectangular elements 14 a and 14 b : the latter are articulated by one of their ends on the bracket 13 around an axis 15. Therefore, the rocking block 14 can rotate around this axis 15 between a high position, called rest, and a low position, called contact. At the other end of the tilting block 14, is articulated around an axis 16 parallel to the axis 15, the head 17 of an actuating means 18: it can thus take a rear position, called loading, and a forward position, called the sinking position. The actuating means 18 also comprises a lever 19 integral with the head 17. This lever 19, when the rocking block 14 is in the rest position and said head 17 in the loading position, is substantially perpendicular to the rocking block 14 and s' extends above the stem 13.

Sur la face supérieure de la tête 17, c'est-à-dire celle vue par l'utilisateur lorsque le bloc basculant 14 est en position de repos et la tête en position de chargement, sont situés, d'une part, un plot de poussée 20 et, d'autre part, un aimant 21.On the upper face of the head 17, that is to say that seen by the user when the tilting block 14 is in the rest position and the head in the loading position, are located, on the one hand, a stud thrust 20 and, on the other hand, a magnet 21.

Le mouvement de rotation du bloc basculant 14 autour de son axe 15 est limité par deux butées, qui sont constituées par des axes parallèles disposés entre les deux flasques 13a et 13b de la potence 13. La première butée 22 détermine la position de repos dans laquelle le bloc basculant 14 est sensi­blement vertical ; la deuxième butée 23 détermine la position de contact et est située de telle sorte que le bloc basculant 14 soit également en position sensiblement verticale mais son extrémité portant la tête 17 étant près du socle 11.The rotational movement of the rocking block 14 around its axis 15 is limited by two stops, which are constituted by parallel axes arranged between the two flanges 13 a and 13 b of the bracket 13. The first stop 22 determines the rest position wherein the tilting block 14 is substantially vertical; the second stop 23 determines the contact position and is located so that the tilting block 14 is also in a substantially vertical position but its end carrying the head 17 being close to the base 11.

Le mouvement de rotation de la tête 17 autour de son axe 16 est limité, d'une part, par une butée 24 constituée par l'extrémité d'une vis 24a, qui traverse une entretoise 24b située entre les deux éléments 14a et 14b et avec laquelle vient en contact la face inférieure de la tête 17 lorsqu'elle est en position arrière, dite de chargement, et, d'autre part, par un axe 26 situé entre les deux éléments 14a et 14b, et coopérant avec un plot réglable 25 porté par la tête 17 pour déterminer la position avant, dite d'enfoncement, de cette tête 17. On fixe la longueur du plot réglable 25 en fonction de la longueur de la troisième partie 5 de l'attache.The rotational movement of the head 17 around its axis 16 is limited, on the one hand, by a stop 24 formed by the end of a screw 24 a , which passes through a spacer 24 b located between the two elements 14 a and 14 b and with which the lower face of the head 17 comes into contact when it is in the rear position, called the loading position, and, on the other hand, by an axis 26 situated between the two elements 14 a and 14 b , and cooperating with an adjustable stud 25 carried by the head 17 for determine the front position, called the driving-in position, of this head 17. The length of the adjustable stud 25 is fixed as a function of the length of the third part 5 of the fastener.

Le bloc basculant 14, après avoir tourné autour de son axe 15, revient à sa position de repos sous l'action d'un premier ressort hélicoïdal 27, dont une extrémité est fixée sur une première barre 28 qui est disposée entre les deux flas­ques 13a et 13b de la potence 13 en arrière de la première butée 22. L'autre extrémité de ce ressort hélicoïdal 27 est prolongée par un fil 27a, réalisé dans le même matériau que celui du ressort, qui est attaché sur une seconde barre 29 disposée entre les deux éléments 14a et 14b du bloc basculant 14. Cette seconde barre 29 est disposée de telle sorte que le fil 27a passe au-dessus de l'axe 15.The tilting block 14, after having turned about its axis 15, returns to its rest position under the action of a first helical spring 27, one end of which is fixed to a first bar 28 which is disposed between the two flanges 13 a and 13 b of the bracket 13 behind the first stop 22. The other end of this helical spring 27 is extended by a wire 27 a , made of the same material as that of the spring, which is attached to a second bar 29 disposed between the two elements 14 a and 14 b of the tilting block 14. This second bar 29 is arranged so that the wire 27 a passes over the axis 15.

De même, un second ressort hélicoîdal 30 per­met de faire passer la tête 17 de la position d'enfoncement à la position de chargement : l'une des extrémités de ce res­sort hélicoïdal 30 est fixée sur la seconde barre 29, l'autre extrémité étant fixée à la face inférieure de la tête 17 au voisinage de la liaison de cette tête avec le levier 19.Similarly, a second helical spring 30 allows the head 17 to pass from the driving-in position to the loading position: one end of this helical spring 30 is fixed to the second bar 29, the other end being fixed to the underside of the head 17 in the vicinity of the connection of this head with the lever 19.

La rigidité du second ressort hélicoïdal 30 est supérieure à celle de l'ensemble çonstitué par le premier ressort hélicoïdal 27 et le fil 27a.The rigidity of the second helical spring 30 is greater than that of the assembly formed by the first helical spring 27 and the wire 27 a .

Lorsque l'appareil pour poser les attaches décrites ci-dessus, est en position de repos, comme représenté à la figure 6, le bloc basculant 14 est en position sensible­ment verticale, en appui contre la butée haute 22, la tête 17 étant par conséquent au-dessus de l'axe 15. Dans cette posi­tion, la tête 17 est en position de chargement, l'extrémité de la vis 24a étant contre la face inférieure de cette tête ; on peut ainsi placer sur cette tête un attache : la première partie 2 de celle-ci est en contact avec l'aimant 21 et la découpe centrale 6 est en appui contre le plot de poussée 20, les pointes 5a et 5b étant dans une direction opposée à celle du levier 19 (voir figure 10).When the apparatus for fitting the fasteners described above, is in the rest position, as shown in FIG. 6, the tilting block 14 is in a substantially vertical position, pressing against the upper stop 22, the head 17 therefore being above the axis 15. In this position, the head 17 is in the loading position, the end of the screw 24 a being against the underside of this head; can thus be placed on the head a base: the first part 2 thereof is in contact with the magnet 21 and the central cutout 6 bears against the thrust pad 20, the tips 5a and 5b being in a direction opposite to that of the lever 19 (see FIG. 10).

En relevant le levier 19, comme représenté par la flèche F à la figure 8, on fait pivoter le bloc basculant 14 autour de son axe 15 pour l'amener dans une position sensi­blement verticale, la tête 17 étant cette fois située au-dessus de l'axe 15, sans que les moyens d'actionnement pivotent autour de l'axe 16 puisque le second ressort 30 est plus rigide que le premier ressort 27. Le mouvement de bascule s'achève lorsque le bloc basculant 14 vient en contact avec la butée basse 23 et a égalment pour action de tendre le premier ressort de rappel 27.By raising the lever 19, as represented by the arrow F in FIG. 8, the rocking block 14 is pivoted about its axis 15 to bring it into a substantially vertical position, the head 17 being this time located above the axis 15, without the actuating means pivoting about the axis 16 since the second spring 30 is more rigid than the first spring 27. The rocking movement ends when the rocking block 14 comes into contact with the lower stop 23 and also has the action of tensioning the first return spring 27.

Dans cette position basse ou position de contact, repré­sentée à la figure 8, la tête 17 est très proche de l'objet 31 : les pointes 5a et 5b de l'attache sont pour ainsi dire en contact avec cet objet.In this low position or contact position, shown in FIG. 8, the head 17 is very close to the object 31: the points 5 a and 5 b of the fastener are, so to speak, in contact with this object.

En continuant d'exercer la force F sur le levier 19, on fait tourner la tête 17 autour de son axe 16 façon à la faire passer de la position de chargement à la position d'enfoncement, qui est déterminée par la mise en butée du plot 25 avec l'axe 26. Dans ce mouvement, le plot de poussée 20 exerce une force de poussée contre le bord de la découpe centra­le 6, ce qui enfonce les pointes 5a et 5b dans l'objet 31 (figure 9). De plus, cette poussée ayant lieu en un point relativement proche de la pliure 7 et des pointes 5a et 5b, ne provoque qu'un faible écartement entre les deuxième 4 et troisième 5 parties lors de l'enfoncement de celle-ci dans l'objet 31.By continuing to exert the force F on the lever 19, the head 17 is rotated about its axis 16 so as to pass it from the loading position to the depressed position, which is determined by the abutment of the stud 25 with the axis 26. In this movement, the push stud 20 exerts a pushing force against the edge of the central cutout 6, which pushes the tips 5 a and 5 b into the object 31 (FIG. 9) . In addition, this thrust taking place at a point relatively close to the fold 7 and the points 5 a and 5 b , causes only a small spacing between the second 4 and third 5 parts when the latter is pressed into object 31.

Lorsque la tête 17 arrive en position d'enfon­cement, on relâche l'action sur le levier 19, ce qui fait revenir dans un premier temps, la tête 17 dans sa position de chargement sous l'effet du second ressort hélicoïdal 30, puis dans un second temps, le bloc basculant 14 dans sa position repos sous l'effet du premier ressort hélicoïdal 27. Une nou­velle attache peut alors être placée sur la tête 17, afin d'être enfoncée dans le même objet 31 ou dans un autre.When the head 17 arrives in the depressed position, the action on the lever 19 is released, which brings the head 17 back to its loading position under the effect of the second helical spring 30, then in a second time, the rocking block 14 in its rest position under the effect of the first helical spring 27. A new fastener can then be placed on the head 17, so as to be pressed into the same object 31 or into another.

Comme on peut le voir sur la figure 11, la troi­sième partie 5 de l'attache est enfoncée selon une oblique dans l'objet 31, la pliure 7 s'étant très légèrement ouverte ; et la zone de jonction entre les première 2 et deuxième 4 parties prend seule appui contre l'objet 31. La première partie 2 est suffisamment décollée de cet objet 31 pour en permettre et faciliter l'accrochage sur un support.As can be seen in FIG. 11, the third part 5 of the fastener is pressed at an oblique angle into the object 31, the fold 7 having been very slightly opened; and the junction zone between the first 2 and second 4 parts takes sole support against the object 31. The first part 2 is sufficiently detached from this object 31 to allow and facilitate attachment to a support.

Ainsi qu'on aura pu le comprendre, le fait que l'attache comporte un angle obtus entre les première 2 et deuxième 4 parties a pour but de permettre, non seulement, l'accrochage de l'objet 31 sur un support, mais aussi l'en­foncement de l'attache par un appareil comportant une tête courbe et animée d'un mouvement circulaire.As will have been understood, the fact that the fastener has an obtuse angle between the first 2 and second 4 parts is intended to allow, not only, the attachment of the object 31 on a support, but also the insertion of the fastener by a device comprising a curved head and animated with a circular movement.

Selon une variante, il peut être prévu que la tête de l'appareil comporte un second plot, dit de traction, qui vient se placer dans la lumière de l'attache. De ce fait, l'aimant, que comporte cette tête pour maintenir l'attache, notamment lors du mouvement de rotation, est situé entre les deux plots et coopère avec la deuxième partie de l'atta­che.According to a variant, it can be provided that the head of the device comprises a second stud, called a pull, which is placed in the lumen of the fastener. Therefore, the magnet, which this head has to hold the fastener, especially during the rotational movement, is located between the two studs and cooperates with the second part of the fastener.

En raison des différentes épaisseurs possibles de l'objet, dans lequel doivent être enfoncées des attaches selon l'invention, l'appareil de pose peut comporter des moyens pour régler en hauteur le bloc basculant par rapport à son socle.Because of the different possible thicknesses of the object, into which fasteners must be inserted according to the invention, the installation device may include means for adjusting the height of the tilting block relative to its base.

Par ailleurs, lorsque l'objet 31 est réalisé dans un matériau dur tel que le bois, il peut être nécessaire de réaliser des avant-trous afin de faciliter la pénétration de l'agrafe. Ceci peut être notamment le cas pour des cadres en bois.Furthermore, when the object 31 is made of a hard material such as wood, it may be necessary to make pilot holes in order to facilitate penetration of the clip. This can in particular be the case for wooden frames.
