Abstract
Description
La présente invention est relative à un dispositif permettant de déployer un drapeau ou un pavillon, notamment lorsqu'il est hissé en haut d'un mât ou d'une hampe de support, en l'absence de vent le faisant flotter sensiblement dans son plan.The present invention relates to a device making it possible to deploy a flag or a flag, in particular when it is hoisted at the top of a mast or a pole of support, in the absence of wind causing it to float substantially in its plane .
On conçoit aisément qu'il est particulièrement souhaitable que le flottant d'un pavillon, en tissu ou autre matière similaire qui ne présente aucune rigidité par elle-même, hissé en haut d'un mât, puisse être déployé complètement pour permettre d'en apercevoir en permanence les couleurs, voire les inscriptions portées sur sa surface, même lorsque le vent est inexistant et ne permet pas à lui seul de faire flotter ce pavillon dans sa direction.It is easily understood that it is particularly desirable that the floating of a flag, in fabric or other similar material which does not have any rigidity by itself, hoisted at the top of a mast, can be deployed completely to allow constantly see the colors and even the inscriptions on its surface, even when the wind is nonexistent and does not by itself allow the flag to float in its direction.
Pour assurer ce déploiement, une solution classique consiste notamment à utiliser une potence fixe horizontale, montée en haut du mât et s'étendant perpendiculairement à la direction de celui-ci, le pavillon, de forme usuellement rectangulaire, étant suspendu sous cette potence en étant réuni à celle-ci par son côté longitudinal correspondant dit battant, tandis que son côté latéral dit guindant s'étend verticalement le long du mât.To ensure this deployment, a conventional solution consists in particular in using a horizontal fixed bracket, mounted at the top of the mast and extending perpendicular to the direction of the latter, the pavilion, usually rectangular in shape, being suspended under this bracket while being joined to the latter by its corresponding longitudinal side said wing, while its lateral side said luff extends vertically along the mast.
Cette solution a l'inconvénient d'exiger pour la mise en place et le retrait du pavillon une nacelle ou autre moyen, propre à s'élever au plus près du mât pour atteindre la potence et fixer le pavillon à celle-ci.This solution has the disadvantage of requiring for the establishment and removal of the pavilion a nacelle or other means, suitable for climbing as close to the mast to reach the bracket and fix the pavilion to it.
De manière plus perfectionnée, on a également prévu de solidariser le pavillon au sol à une traverse de support, qui le maintient déployé, cette traverse comportant une attache centrale pour l'extrémité de la drisse de levage qui passe sur des poulies de renvoi, l'une de celles-ci étant montée sur la potence horizontale, l'autre à l'angle de liaison de celle-ci avec la partie supérieure du mât, la drisse étant ensuite disposée contre ce dernier pour permettre la montée ou la descente du pavillon avec sa traverse.In a more sophisticated manner, provision has also been made to secure the pavilion to the ground to a support cross member, which keeps it deployed, this cross member comprising a central attachment for the end of the lifting halyard which passes over deflection pulleys, the '' one of these being mounted on the horizontal stem, the other at the connection angle of the latter with the upper part of the mast, the halyard being then placed against the latter to allow the raising or lowering of the roof with its crosspiece.
Mais cette variante est complexe et relativement coûteuse ; en outre, elle présente le risque que la drisse ne s'emmêle au droit de ses poulies et que la traverse ne se déplace pas convenablement en restant parallèle à la potence lorsqu'on hisse le pavillon.But this variant is complex and relatively expensive; in addition, it presents the risk that the halyard becomes tangled at the right of its pulleys and that the cross-member does not move properly while remaining parallel to the bracket when the flag is hoisted.
La présente invention est relative à un dispositif de tension d'un pavillon, très simple dans sa conception, peu onéreux, facile à mettre en oeuvre et qui permet d'assurer le déploiement souhaité en toutes circonstances, indépendamment notamment de la présence ou de l'absence de vent et de la direction de celui-ci.The present invention relates to a roof tensioning device, very simple in its design, inexpensive, easy to implement and which makes it possible to ensure the desired deployment in all circumstances, independently in particular of the presence or the absence of wind and its direction.
A cet effet, le dispositif considéré se caractérise en ce que le flottant comporte, dans sa surface, un moyen, continu ou discontinu, s'étendant transversalement par rapport au flottant et permettant l'engagement à l'intérieur de ce moyen d'un élément de renfort rigide, appliqué contre la surface du flottant de manière à maintenir en permanence celle-ci étendue.To this end, the device considered is characterized in that the float comprises, in its surface, a means, continuous or discontinuous, extending transversely relative to the float and allowing the engagement inside this means of a rigid reinforcement element, applied against the surface of the float so as to permanently maintain the latter extended.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le moyen prévu dans la surface du flottant, dans lequel s'engage l'élément de renfort rigide, est constitué par au moins un ourlet ou similaire.In a preferred embodiment, the means provided in the surface of the float, in which the rigid reinforcing element engages, consists of at least one hem or the like.
De préférence, l'ourlet de réception de l'élément de renfort s'étend approximativement selon une diagonale du flottant ou parallèlement à la direction de celle-ci pour former avec le battant et le guindant, un triangle dont l'angle inférieur est situé sur une drisse de hissage ou d'amenée du pavillon vis-à-vis d'un mât vertical de support.Preferably, the receiving hem of the reinforcing element extends approximately along a diagonal of the float or parallel to the direction of the latter to form with the leaf and the luff, a triangle whose lower angle is located on a halyard for hauling in or bringing the flag up against a vertical support mast.
En variante, l'ourlet est substitué par une pluralité d'anneaux voisins, aptes à maintenir l'élément de renfort rigide contre la surface du flottant.As a variant, the hem is replaced by a plurality of neighboring rings, capable of holding the rigid reinforcement element against the surface of the float.
Avantageusement, l'élément de renfort se présente sous la forme d'une lame mince et plate, réalisée en un matériau plastique, métallique ou autre. En variante, cet élément peut être constitué par une tige rigide et allongée.Advantageously, the reinforcing element is in the form of a thin and flat blade, made of a plastic, metallic or other material. As a variant, this element may consist of a rigid and elongated rod.
Dans un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, l'extrémité de l'élément de renfort est située, au droit du guindant, sensiblement dans la partie médiane de celui-ci et est solidarisée d'un étrier de fixation porté par un collier de guidage, entourant le mât et se déplaçant selon la hauteur de celui-ci avec le pavillon.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the end of the reinforcing element is located, in line with the luff, substantially in the middle part thereof and is secured to a fixing bracket carried by a collar guide, surrounding the mast and moving according to the height of the latter with the flag.
D'autres caractéristiques d'un dispositif de tension et de déploiement d'un pavillon, établi conformément à l'invention, apparaîtront encore à travers la description qui suit d'un exemple de réalisation, donné à titre indicatif et non limitatif, en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel :
- La Figure 1 est une vue schématique en élévation du dispositif selon l'invention.
- La Figure 2 est une vue à plus grande échelle, illustrant le détail du collier de guidage.
- Figure 1 is a schematic elevational view of the device according to the invention.
- Figure 2 is an enlarged view illustrating the detail of the guide collar.
Sur la Figure 1, la référence 1 désigne un pavillon ou drapeau, de forme générale rectangulaire comme il est usuel pour ce genre d'article, ce pavillon étant réalisé en tissu ou matière analogue, ne présentant par elle-même aucune rigidité.In Figure 1, the reference 1 designates a flag or flag, of generally rectangular shape as is usual for this kind of article, this flag being made of fabric or similar material, having by itself no rigidity.
Le pavillon 1 est prévu pour être hissé en haut d'un mât vertical 2 dont l'extrémité inférieure est généralement ancrée directement dans le sol 3 ou par l'intermédiaire de tout support approprié (non représenté).The pavilion 1 is designed to be hoisted at the top of a
Le mouvement du pavillon le long du mât est réalisé au moyen d'une drisse de levage 4, dont l'extrémité peut être fixée sur un organe d'accrochage et d'immobilisation 5, prévu à la base du mât 2 ou bien à logé à l'intérieur de celui-ci pour le cas où la drisse est associée à un dispositif antivol, non directement accessible.The movement of the flag along the mast is achieved by means of a lifting halyard 4, the end of which can be fixed to a hooking and immobilizing
La drisse 4 passe en haut du mât sur une poulie de renvoi 6, fixée à la partie supérieure de ce mât sous la tête 7 de celui-ci, pour permettre de hisser ou d'amener le pavillon de manière usuelle pour ce type d'objet.The halyard 4 passes at the top of the mast on a
Si le pavillon 1, hissé en haut du mât, se trouve dans un environnement où le vent est nul, voire très léger, il s'affaisse sur lui-même, en étant seulement soutenu à l'extrémité de la drisse au voisinage de la poulie 6, ce qui ne permet pas de voir ses couleurs ou les inscriptions qu'il peut comporter, notamment lorsqu'il s'agit d'un pavillon à vocation publicitaire.If the flag 1, hoisted at the top of the mast, is in an environment where the wind is zero, or even very light, it collapses on itself, being only supported at the end of the halyard in the vicinity of the
Pour pallier cet inconvénient et conformément à l'invention, on prévoit transversalement dans la surface du flottant 8 du pavillon, au moins un ourlet 9, permettant d'engager à l'intérieur de celui-ci, un élément de renfort 10 destiné à maintenir déployée la surface de ce flottant, même en l'absence de vent au niveau du sommet du mât.To overcome this drawback and in accordance with the invention, at least one hem 9 is provided transversely in the surface of the float 8 of the roof, making it possible to engage, inside of it, a reinforcing
L'ourlet 9 peut être continu ou discontinu. En variante, l'ourlet peut être remplacé par des anneaux séparés, cousus de place en place à la surface du flottant et disposés à distance convenable les uns des autres, ces anneaux recevant l'élément de renfort 10, ou encore par tout autre moyen analogue qui permette de maintenir cet élément contre cette surface. Ainsi, l'élément de renfort pourrait être agrafé ou autrement fixé sur le pavillon.Hem 9 can be continuous or discontinuous. Alternatively, the hem may be replaced by separate rings, sewn from place to place on the surface of the float and arranged at a suitable distance from each other, these rings receiving the reinforcing
L'élément de renfort 10 peut être constitué sous la forme d'une lame mince et plate, présentant néanmoins une rigidité suffisante. Cette lame peut être réalisée en tout matériau approprié, notamment en plastique, en bois ou en métal. On peut également utiliser une tige, métallique ou non.The reinforcing
L'élément de renfort 10, engagé dans son ourlet 9, est solidarisé du coin supérieur du flottant 8, à l'extrémité de celui-ci opposée au mât 2, en bout du côté correspondant ou battant 11 du pavillon, au moyen d'une attache de liaison 12 dont le détail n'importe pas à l'invention.The reinforcing
A son extrémité opposée, voisine du guindant 13 du flottant 8, l'élément de renfort 10 est fixé sur un étrier 14, solidarisé en bout d'un collier de guidage 15 (Figure 2), lequel est aménagé pour entourer librement le mât vertical 2 en assurant le guidage du pavillon par rapport à celui-ci, lorsqu'il est hissé ou amené.At its opposite end, close to the
Avantageusement, la drisse peut être également fixée au point inférieur 16 flottant à l'extrémité basse du guindant 13.Advantageously, the halyard can also be fixed to the
Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, le pavillon comporte un ourlet unique 9 disposé en travers du flottant 8, de manière à former un triangle avec l'attache de liaison 12 en bout du battant 11 et l'étrier 14 du collier 15, au droit du guindant 13. Dans ce cas, l'extrémité de l'élément de renfort 10 logé dans l'ourlet 9, fixée sur l'étrier 14 est disposée sensiblement à peu près au milieu de la hauteur de ce guindant.In the embodiment shown, the pavilion has a single hem 9 arranged across the float 8, so as to form a triangle with the connecting clip 12 at the end of the
Bien entendu, dans d'autres variantes, on peut prévoir de ménager dans le flottant, plusieurs ourlets du même genre, parallèles ou non, chacun d'eux contenant un élément de renfort 10 tel que décrit ci-dessus.Of course, in other variants, provision may be made in the floating, several hems of the same kind, parallel or not, each of them containing a reinforcing
On réalise ainsi un dispositif de tension et de déploiement d'un pavillon, permettant de maintenir celui-ci avec sa surface étendue en toute position, par le simple jeu des forces exercées, tant par la traction due à la drisse que par le poids propre du pavillon.This produces a device for tensioning and deploying a roof, making it possible to maintain it with its extended surface in any position, by the simple play of the forces exerted, both by the traction due to the halyard and by the dead weight of the pavilion.
L'utilisation d'un collier de guidage comportant un étrier pour la fixation de l'extrémité de l'élément de renfort, permet par ailleurs de maintenir le pavillon en permanence près du mât, en évitant en particulier tout déport latéral.The use of a guide collar comprising a stirrup for fixing the end of the reinforcing element, moreover makes it possible to maintain the roof permanently near the mast, in particular avoiding any lateral offset.
Par ailleurs, bien que l'exemple décrit ait plus spécialement envisagé la présence d'un ourlet pour monter et appliquer l'élément de renfort rigide contre la surface du pavillon, on pourrait prévoir d'autres solutions équivalentes, consistant notamment à coller ou rapporter d'une autre manière cet élément sur le flottant pour maintenir celui-ci étendu.Furthermore, although the example described more specifically envisaged the presence of a hem for mounting and applying the rigid reinforcement element against the surface of the roof, one could provide other equivalent solutions, consisting in particular of gluing or attaching in another way this element on the float to keep it extended.
