Description

Système de roues amovibles pour bagage.Removable wheels system for luggage.
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de roues amovibles pour bagages. Le bagage consistera le plus souvent en une valise verticale à roulettes.The present invention relates to a device for removable wheels for luggage. The luggage will most often consist of a vertical suitcase with wheels.
Ce genre de valises s'est avéré particulièrement pratique et domine le marché depuis plusieurs années .This type of luggage has proved particularly practical and has dominated the market for several years.
Les roulettes constituent cependant un élément délicat du bagage et une source potentielle d'ennuis. Elles peuvent se bloquer et/ou s'user prématurément. C'est en particulier le cas pour des roulettes à gomme tendre qui sont préférées pour le comfort et notamment le bruit réduit lors de l'utilisation. Il est donc important de pouvoir remplacer ces roulettes de manière aisée, sans nécessairement renvoyer le bagage vers un atelier spécialisé. Idéalement, l'utilisateur devrait pouvoir procéder au remplacement lui-même.The wheels, however, are a delicate piece of luggage and a potential source of trouble. They may become blocked and / or wear prematurely. This is particularly the case for soft rubber wheels which are preferred for comfort and in particular the reduced noise during use. It is therefore important to be able to replace these wheels easily, without necessarily returning the luggage to a specialized workshop. Ideally, the user should be able to perform the replacement himself.
Par ailleurs, étant donné leur encombrement, il s'avère important pour le transport et l'expédition de grandes quantités de valises de pouvoir les empiler l'une dans l'autre, éventuellement en tête-bêche, étant entendu qu'on empile alors un jeu de valises de dimensions toutes différentes. Dans ce cas, la présence de roulettes constitue un désavantage car celles-ci provoquent un . encombrement trop important. Dans ce cas aussi, des roulettes amovibles et interchangeables permettent de surmonter ce problème.Moreover, given their size, it is important for the transport and shipping of large quantities of suitcases to be stacked one in the other, possibly upside down, it being understood that stacks then a set of suitcases of different sizes. In this case, the presence of wheels is a disadvantage because they cause a. too much space. In this case too, removable and interchangeable wheels can overcome this problem.
Enfin il est important de pouvoir proposer des roulettes de dimension et/ou propriétés différentes même pour un bagage identique ce qui améliore sa modulabilité . Des roulettes de diamètre plus important sont par exemple généralement plus solides et plus ou moins pratiques en fonction du type d'utilisation.Finally it is important to be able to offer rollers of different size and / or properties even for identical luggage which improves its modulability. For example, rollers of larger diameter are generally stronger and more or less practical depending on the type of use.
La présente invention a pour but de proposer un système de roulettes pour valises roulantes permettant à celles-ci d'être facilement démontées, remontées et/ou échangées.The object of the present invention is to propose a rolling caster wheel system enabling them to be easily disassembled, reassembled and / or exchanged.
L'invention propose un bagage vertical avec des supports de roue pivotante, de préférence omnidirectionnelle, à installer à la base du bagage dans des logements prévus à cet effet. Généralement, le bagage peut ainsi comporter deux ou quatre supports de roue.The invention proposes a vertical baggage with pivoting wheel supports, preferably omnidirectional, to be installed at the base of the baggage in housings provided for this purpose. Generally, the baggage can thus comprise two or four wheel supports.
Selon un mode de réalisation, chaque support de roue comprend un roulement à billes ou un moyen équivalent couplant en rotation libre un caisson ouvert ou arceau accueillant de part et d'autre l'axe de la roue et une partie supérieure constituée d'une plaque de pivot avec un pivot s ' étendant verticalement au milieu de cette plaque. Le pivot est apte à s ' introduire dans un trou prévu à la base du bagage, p.e. dans un renfoncement logeant ladite plaque.According to one embodiment, each wheel support comprises a ball bearing or equivalent means coupling in free rotation an open box or hoop receiving on either side the axis of the wheel and an upper portion consisting of a plate with a pivot extending vertically in the middle of this plate. The pivot is adapted to be inserted into a hole provided at the base of the luggage, p.e. in a recess accommodating said plate.
Le pivot est muni sur son pourtour d'une gorge annulaire horizontale. Selon l'invention, cette gorge est enserrée par glissement et immobilisation d'une pièce de blocage ou cale à introduire à travers la base au dessus du renfoncement, par exemple via une fente, et présentant un orifice avec un rétrécissement oblong destiné à enserrer ladite gorge annulaire.The pivot is provided on its periphery with a horizontal annular groove. According to the invention, this groove is gripped by sliding and immobilization of a locking piece or wedge to be introduced through the base above the recess, for example via a slot, and having an orifice with an oblong narrowing intended to grip said annular groove.
L'invention propose donc un bagage vertical comprenant à sa base ou à une pièce de base des supports de roulette pivotante amovible dans lequel chaque support est fixé à la base du bagage, dans un logement prévu à cet effet, de telle manière qu'un pivot vertical traverse une paroi, de préférence essentiellement horizontale, de ce logement. Le pivot est maintenu par une pièce de blocage amovible, de préférence plate et allongée, adjacente à la face intérieure de ladite paroi horizontale, ladite pièce comportant à une extrémité un trou ou ouverture apte à être traversé par ledit pivot, ledit trou de ladite pièce étant latéralement prolongé d'un rétrécissement oblong apte à enserrer et/ou bloquer, par glissement horizontal, une gorge annulaire prévue au pourtour de ce pivot et bloquer ainsi de façon réversible le support de roulette audit logement de la pièce de base.The invention thus proposes a vertical bag comprising, at its base or a base piece, removable rotatable caster supports in which each support is fixed to the base of the baggage, in a housing provided for this purpose, in such a way that vertical pivot through a wall, preferably substantially horizontal, of this housing. The pivot is held by a removable locking piece, preferably flat and elongated, adjacent to the inner face of said horizontal wall, said piece having at one end a hole or opening adapted to be traversed by said pivot, said hole of said piece being laterally extended oblong narrowing adapted to grip and / or block, by horizontal sliding, an annular groove provided at the periphery of this pivot and thus reversibly lock the wheel support to said housing of the base piece.
La pièce de blocage ou cale peut être fixée au support de diverses manières, par exemple par vissage, coincement, ou encliquetage, ou encore n'importe quelle combinaison de ces moyens .The locking piece or wedge can be fixed to the support in various ways, for example by screwing, wedging, or snapping, or any combination of these means.
De manière générale le bagage vertical selon l'invention comprend à sa base ou à une pièce de base des supports de roulette pivotante amovibles dans lequel chaque support est fixé par l'intermédiaire d'une pièce de blocage coulissant latéraletnent dans un évidement et y bloquant une partie de pivot solidaire, en rotation ou pivotement libre, audit support de roulette.In general, the vertical luggage according to the invention comprises, at its base or a base piece, removable pivoting wheel supports in which each support is fixed by means of a sliding locking piece. lateral in a recess and blocking therein a pivot portion integral, in rotation or free pivoting, said roulette support.
L'invention sera davantage comprise à la lecture de la description complémentaire qui suit et en se référant aux dessins fournis en annexe à titre d'exemples uniquement.The invention will be further understood from reading the following additional description and referring to the accompanying drawings as examples only.

La fig.7 illustre en coupe latérale une pièce de fixation 10 de la fig. 6. Dans les figs. 1 et 2 , on distingue l'extrémité d'une pièce recourbée 1 d'armature de fond de bagage, par exemple en plastique injecté, présentant dans sa partie horizontale, de part et d'autre, un évidement 4', 4", prévu dans une partie renforcée, pour le système de fixation de roulette 3 interchangeable . La face externe de la pièce 1 comprend un logement 4 ' destiné à accueillir un support 2 de roulette pivotante. Le support est constitué d'un pivot et d'un arceau 7 supportant de part et d'autre l'axe de la roulette 3. L'arceau est solidaire en rotation libre, de manière classique par l'intermédiaire d'un roulement à billes 20, du pivot 5 et d'une plaque de pivot 8 épousant le contour du logement 4 ' .Fig.7 illustrates in side section a fastener 10 of FIG. 6. In the figs. 1 and 2, there is the end of a curved piece 1 of luggage bottom frame, for example injected plastic, having in its horizontal portion, on either side, a recess 4 ', 4 ", provided in a reinforced part, for the interchangeable roulette fixing system 3. The outer face of the part 1 comprises a housing 4 'intended to receive a pivoting wheel support 2. The support consists of a pivot and a Hook 7 supporting on either side the axis of the wheel 3. The hoop is secured in free rotation, in a conventional manner via a ball bearing 20, the pivot 5 and a plate of 8 pivot conforming to the contour of the housing 4 '.
Pour la fixation, le pivot 5 passe à travers le trou 9 du logement et le trou 11 d'une pièce de blocage 10 comportant une extension 12 apte à enserrer une gorge annulaire 6 prévue au pourtour du pivot 5. La pièce de blocage est introduite dans 1 ' évidement 4" par glissement horizontal à travers une fente 15 prévue dans la base.For fixing, the pivot 5 passes through the hole 9 of the housing and the hole 11 of a locking piece 10 having an extension 12 adapted to grip an annular groove 6 provided at the periphery of the pivot 5. The locking piece is introduced in the recess 4 "by horizontal sliding through a slot 15 provided in the base.
La fig. 3 illustre une variante pour le maintien amélioré de la pièce de fixation 10. On prévoit en effet des extensions 45 dont le profil est apte à s'adapter à cette pièce par encliquetage . On présente également une coupe vue du bas du renforcement circulaire de la pièce de base comportant le logement 4 ' . On y illustre le positionnement de la pièce de blocage, sous forme d'une languette métallique 10 dont un orifice oblong surmonte un trou 9 dans la pièce de base, trou destiné à recevoir le pivot 5 qui sera enserré ou au moins bloqué dans l'orifice allongé. La fig. 4 illustre en coupe latérale une pièce de fixation 10. On distingue le trou traversant 11 dont une partie 12 plus étroite s'étend latéralement. La partie 13 est recourbée et facilite la préhension manuelle de cette pièce de blocage. On peut distinguer le renflement 33 qui peut coopérer avec une partie complémentaire de la pièce de base dans un but de fixation par encliquetage .Fig. 3 illustrates a variant for the improved maintenance of the fastener 10. Indeed, there are provided extensions 45 whose profile is adapted to adapt to this piece snap. Also shown is a sectional view from the bottom of the circular reinforcement of the base piece having the housing 4 '. It shows the positioning of the locking piece, in the form of a metal tongue 10, an oblong orifice overcomes a hole 9 in the base piece, hole for receiving the pivot 5 which will be clamped or at least blocked in the elongated orifice. Fig. 4 illustrates in side section a fastener 10. There is the through hole 11, a narrower portion 12 extends laterally. The portion 13 is bent and facilitates manual gripping of the locking piece. The bulge 33 can be distinguished which can cooperate with a complementary portion of the base piece for snap fastening purposes.
Comme illustré à la fig. 5 une protubérance 35 peut être prévue dans le logement 4" pour coopérer avec le trou 11 par coincement ou encliquetage.As shown in fig. A protrusion 35 may be provided in the housing 4 "to cooperate with the hole 11 by wedging or snapping.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention illustré à la fig. 6, la pièce de blocage 10 est davantage maintenue à la pièce de base 1 par l'intermédiaire d'une vis 30 traversant un logement 31 et la languette de fixation en 32.According to another aspect of the invention illustrated in FIG. 6, the locking piece 10 is further held in the base piece 1 by means of a screw 30 passing through a housing 31 and the fastening tongue 32.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention, un certain jeu vertical est laissé entre la gorge et la partie oblongue du trou. Ce jeu peut être contrôlé en prévoyant une épaisseur de pièce 10 et une largeur de gorge 6 adéquates. La pièce 10 peut alors être glissée, calée et bloquée de manière plus efficace dans le logement 4" par coincement de biais entre d'une part son extrémité dans une partie relevée du fond dudit logement comme illustré en 40 dans la figure 1, et d'autre part les parois de la gorge annulaire 6.According to another aspect of the invention, a certain vertical clearance is left between the groove and the oblong portion of the hole. This game can be controlled by providing an adequate piece thickness 10 and groove width 6. The piece 10 can then be slid, wedged and blocked more effectively in the housing 4 "by wedging bias between its end on one side in a raised portion of the bottom of said housing as shown in 40 in Figure 1, and d the other side of the annular groove 6.
