Description

On sait qu'on a déjà proposé des panneaux lumineux destinés à être scel­lés dans le sol au niveau des trottoirs des voies publiques ou des chaussées des rues piétonnes, en vue d'assurer l'éclairage et la mise en évidence d'affiches publicitaires ou autres documents imprimés analo­gues. Ces tentatives n'ont toutefois pas abouti par suite de la faible résistance des caissons à la charge à laquelle ils sont soumis de la part soit des camions de livraison qui assurent la desserte des voies piétonnes, soit des véhicules de nettoyage ou de sécurité.We know that we have already proposed light panels intended to be sealed in the ground at the level of the sidewalks of public roads or of the pavements of pedestrian streets, in order to ensure the lighting and the highlighting of advertising posters or other similar printed material. However, these attempts were unsuccessful due to the low resistance of the boxes to the load to which they are subjected on the part of either the delivery trucks which provide pedestrian access, or cleaning or security vehicles.

C'est à cet inconvénient qu'entend remédier la présente invention, en permettant la réalisation d'un caisson publicitaire lumineux qui est susceptible, de par sa robustesses, de résister sans défaillance aux charges de roulement les plus élevées.It is to this drawback that the present invention intends to remedy, by making it possible to produce a light advertising box which is capable, by its robustness, of withstanding the highest rolling loads without failure.

Le panneau suivant l'invention comprend en premier lieu un socle en béton armé ou en béton de fibres, destiné à être scellé dans une excava­tion ménagée dans le sol et à être équipé d'une source lumineuse formée par une série de tubes électriques orientés parallèlement les uns aux autres. Ce socle présente, légèrement au-dessous de son bord supérieur ouvert, un épaulement ou gradin périphérique contre lequel prend appui un cadre métallique formant support pour une plaque transparente fixe à forte épaisseur, réalisée par exmeple en méthacrylate ou autre résine transparente analogue ; cette plaque prend également appui contre une série d'entretoises parallèles qui reposent contre le fond du socle et qui sont elles-mêmes réalisées en une matière synthétique transparente.The panel according to the invention firstly comprises a reinforced concrete or fiber concrete base, intended to be sealed in an excavation made in the ground and to be equipped with a light source formed by a series of electric tubes oriented in parallel each other. This base has, slightly below its open upper edge, a peripheral shoulder or step against which a metal frame is supported forming a support for a fixed transparent plate with a large thickness, produced for example from methacrylate or other similar transparent resin; this plate also bears against a series of parallel spacers which rest against the bottom of the base and which are themselves made of a transparent synthetic material.

Cet ensemble est complété par un cadre ouvrant qui est articulé le long de l'un des bords du cadre fixe et qui porte une plaque transparente de protection, l'affiche à exposer étant ainsi susceptible d'être maintenue entre les deux plaques transparentes du caisson tout en étant éclairée par en dessous. Un mécanisme de fermeture, avantageusment formé par une série de serrures individuelles, assure le verrouillage du cadre ouvrant sur le cadre fixe et permet le remplacement de l'affiche, lorsque dési­ré.This set is completed by an opening frame which is articulated along one of the edges of the fixed frame and which carries a transparent protective plate, the poster to be exposed thus being capable of being maintained between the two transparent plates of the box while being lit from below. A closing mechanism, advantageously formed by a series of individual locks, ensures the locking of the opening frame on the fixed frame and allows the replacement of the poster, when desired.

Le dessin annexé, donné à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caractéristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer :

  • Fig. 1 est une coupe illustrant l'agencement général et l'implanta­tion d'un caisson lumineux suivant l'invention.
  • Fig. 2 et 3 sont des coupes transversales de détail montrant deux côtés opposés des cadres fixe et ouvrant du caisson suivant fig. 1.
  • Fig. 4 et 5 représentent, en position fermée et en position ouver­te, l'une des serrures assurant le verrouillage du cadre ouvrant.
The appended drawing, given by way of example, will allow a better understanding of the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it is capable of providing:
  • Fig. 1 is a section illustrating the general arrangement and the location of a light box according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 and 3 are detailed cross sections showing two opposite sides of the fixed and opening frames of the box according to FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 4 and 5 represent, in the closed position and in the open position, one of the locks ensuring the locking of the opening frame.

En fig. 1, la référence 1 désigne une chaussée dans laquelle a été ména­gée une excavation pour le scellement d'un socle en béton 2 à profil rectangulaire, le bord supérieur ouvert dudit socle étant disposé subs­tantiellement au niveau de la chaussée 1. Le fond de ce socle 2 présente des logements longitudinaux 2a dans lesquels sont fixés les supports d'une série de tubes électriques 3, alimentés à travers une boîte de jonction 4.In fig. 1, reference 1 designates a roadway in which an excavation has been made for the sealing of a concrete base 2 with rectangular profile, the open upper edge of said base being disposed substantially at the level of the roadway 1. The bottom of this base 2 has longitudinal housings 2 a in which are fixed the supports of a series of electric tubes 3, supplied through a junction box 4.

Au-dessous de son bord libre supérieur, le socle 2 comporte un gradin périphérique 2b qui est agencé pour supporter le cadre fixe du caisson. Ce cadre fixe est formé par quatre profilés 5 à section carrée, pourvue d'une ailette latérale inférieure 5a qui supporte des réglettes 6 à sec­tion carrée. Sur ces réglettes 6 vient prendre appui le bord d'une pla­que ou dalle transparente 7 à forte épaisseur, avantageusement réalisée en une résine du genre méthacrylate. On observera qu'en vue de renforcer encore la résistance de cette plaque 7, on a prévu une série d'entretoi­ses verticales 8 (voir fig. 1) dont le bord inférieur est engagé dans une rainure 2c pratiquée dans le socle 2 entre les logements 2a de celui-ci ; ces entretoises 8 sont préférablement elles-mêmes réalisées en méthacrylate de façon à ne pas gêner la diffusion de la lumière émise par les tubes 3.Below its upper free edge, the base 2 comprises a peripheral step 2 b which is arranged to support the fixed frame of the box. This fixed frame is formed by four sections 5 with square section, provided with a lower lateral fin 5 a which supports strips 6 with square section. On these strips 6 comes to bear the edge of a transparent plate or slab 7 with a large thickness, advantageously made of a resin of the methacrylate type. It will be observed that in order to further strengthen the resistance of this plate 7, a series of vertical spacers 8 (see fig. 1) has been provided, the lower edge of which is engaged in a groove 2 c formed in the base 2 between the 2 a housing thereof; these spacers 8 are preferably themselves made of methacrylate so as not to hinder the diffusion of the light emitted by the tubes 3.

Afin d'éviter tout déplacement intempestif de la plaque 7 par rapport au cadre fixe 5-6 qui la supporte, on a prévu une série de vis 9 qui tra­versent ladite plaque pour coopérer avec des taraudages pratiqués dans les réglettes 6, comme illustré en fig. 3.In order to avoid any untimely movement of the plate 7 with respect to the fixed frame 5-6 which supports it, a series of screws 9 have been provided which pass through said plate to cooperate with threads made in the strips 6, as illustrated in FIG. . 3.

Au cadre fixe 5-6 est associé un cadre ouvrant formé par l'assemblage de quatre éléments 10 à profil plat, rendus solidaires, par exemple à l'aide de vis telles que 11, d'une plaque transparente 12, également réalisée en résine, mais établie à une épaisseur inférieure à celle de la plaque 7. Ce cadre ouvrant 10-12 est assemblé au cadre fixe 5-6 par le moyen d'une charnière plate 13 (fig. 3) qui s'étend le long de l'un des côtés longitudinaux du caisson. L'un des éléments de cette charnière 13 est fixé à l'élément 10 correspondant, tandis que l'autre est rendu solidaire d'une ailette supérieure 5b prévue sur le profilé 5 envisagé, ladite ailette reposant sur un gradin 2d prévu à cet effet sur le côté correspondant du socle 2.The fixed frame 5-6 is associated with an opening frame formed by the assembly of four elements 10 with a flat profile, made integral, for example with using screws such as 11, a transparent plate 12, also made of resin, but made at a thickness less than that of the plate 7. This opening frame 10-12 is assembled to the fixed frame 5-6 by the by means of a flat hinge 13 (fig. 3) which extends along one of the longitudinal sides of the box. One of the elements of this hinge 13 is fixed to the corresponding element 10, while the other is made integral with an upper fin 5 b provided on the envisaged profile 5, said fin resting on a step 2 d provided at this effect on the corresponding side of the base 2.

Afin d'éviter toute introduction d'eau à l'intérieur du socle 2, le ca­dre ouvrant 10-12 est équipé d'un joint d'étanchéité 14, destiné à venir prendre appui contre la face supérieure des profilés 5 du cadre fixe 5-6. On évite de la sorte tout risque d'endommagemnt de l'affiche 15 destinée à être insérée, moyennant ouverture du cadre ouvrant, entre la plaque 12 dudit cadre et la plaque épaisse 7 ; cette affiche 15, ainsi maintenue à plat, est éclairée par les tubes lumineux 3 et apparaît en conséquence à travers la plaque supérieure 12.In order to avoid any introduction of water inside the base 2, the opening frame 10-12 is equipped with a seal 14, intended to come to bear against the upper face of the profiles 5 of the fixed frame 5 -6. This avoids any risk of damage to the poster 15 intended to be inserted, by opening the opening frame, between the plate 12 of said frame and the thick plate 7; this poster 15, thus kept flat, is lit by the light tubes 3 and consequently appears through the upper plate 12.

En vue d'éviter l'ouverture du cadre ouvrant par des personnes non habi­litées, on a prévu d'associer audit cadre un mécanisme de fermeture for­mé par une série de serrures individuelles dont le corps 16 (fig. 4) est serti dans l'épaisseur de la plaque 8 ; la manoeuvre de chaque serrure est opérée à l'aide d'une clef amovible 17 introduite à travers une lu­mière 18 pratiquée dans le cadre ouvrant 10-12. La tige tournante 19 de chaque serrure 16 porte un pêne 20 disposé dans l'espace libre ménagé entre deux réglettes 6 adjacentes, de manière à pénétrer dans le profilé 5 à travers une ouverture 5c et à coopérer avec le talon replié 21a d'un doigt 21 solidaire du cadre ouvrant 10-12, lequel doigt pénètre lui-même dans la profilé 5 par une lumière supérieure 5d (voir fig. 5).In order to avoid the opening of the opening frame by unauthorized persons, provision has been made to associate with said frame a closing mechanism formed by a series of individual locks whose body 16 (fig. 4) is crimped in the thickness of plate 8; the operation of each lock is operated using a removable key 17 introduced through a slot 18 made in the opening frame 10-12. The rotary rod 19 of each lock 16 carries a bolt 20 disposed in the free space formed between two adjacent strips 6, so as to penetrate into the profile 5 through an opening 5 c and to cooperate with the folded heel 21 a of a finger 21 secured to the opening frame 10-12, which finger itself penetrates into the profile 5 by an upper lumen 5 d (see fig. 5).

La construction de l'ensemble du caisson ci-dessus décrit est très sim­ple et économique. Les essais ont démontré qu'un tel caisson comportait une résistance aux charges très élevée, qui le mettait à l'abri de tout endommagement lors du roulement de camions ou autres véhicules lourds. Il va de soi que le caisson peut présenter en plan tout profil désiré.The construction of the whole of the box described above is very simple and economical. Tests have shown that such a box has a very high resistance to loads, which protects it from any damage when rolling trucks or other heavy vehicles. It goes without saying that the box can have any desired profile in plan.
