Description

La présente invention concerne les valises, et plus particulièrement les valises de voyage qui sont munies d'au moins deux roulettes, de préférence quatre, et de moyens de blocage des roulettes pour éviter que, lorsque la valise n'est pas sous le contrôle de son utilisateur, elle ne se déplace accidentellement au risque de constituer un danger de toute sorte pour les tiers et l'environnement.The present invention relates to suitcases, and more particularly to traveling suitcases which are provided with at least two casters, preferably four, and means for locking the casters so that, when the bag is not under the control of its user, it does not move accidentally at the risk of constituting a danger of any kind for third parties and the environment.

Il n'existe actuellement pas de valises de ce type qui soient d'une structure simple, peu onéreuse et en outre esthétique, bien que l'on puisse citer, à titre d'exemple illustratif de l'art antérieur, une valise comme celle qui est décrite et illustrée dans le WO91/11127 .There are currently no suitcases of this type that are simple in structure, inexpensive and aesthetic, although we can cite, as an illustrative example of the prior art, a suitcase such as which is described and illustrated in the WO91 / 11127 .

La présente invention a donc pour but de réaliser une valise dont la structure lui permet d'atteindre les buts et résultats définis ci-dessus.The present invention therefore aims to achieve a suitcase whose structure allows it to achieve the goals and results defined above.

Plus précisément, la présente invention a pour objet une valise dont les caractéristiques sont définies dans la revendication 1 annexée.More specifically, the subject of the present invention is a bag whose characteristics are defined in appended claim 1.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront au cours de la description suivante donnée en regard des dessins annexés à titre illustratif mais nullement limitatif, dans lesquels :

  • La figure 1 est une vue arrière schématique d'un mode de réalisation de la valise selon l'invention, et
  • La figure 2 est une vue à plus grande échelle des deux parties du schéma selon la figue 1 qui sont situées dans les deux cercles C1 et C2 tracés sur la figure 1.
Other features and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from the following description given with reference to the accompanying drawings, by way of illustration but in no way limiting, in which:
  • The figure 1 is a schematic rear view of an embodiment of the bag according to the invention, and
  • The figure 2 is a view on a larger scale of the two parts of the diagram according to FIG. 1 which are located in the two circles C1 and C2 drawn on the figure 1 .

En référence aux deux figures annexées, la valise selon l'invention comporte un coffre 10 qui est connu en lui même pour être apte à contenir tout ce qui est par exemple nécessaire pour un voyage ou analogue.With reference to the two appended figures, the bag according to the invention comprises a box 10 which is known in itself to be able to contain everything that is for example necessary for a trip or the like.

La valise comporte en outre au moins deux roulettes 11, 12, avantageusement quatre, de façon que la valise puisse rouler sur le sol en position stable, uniquement sous l'effet d'une poussée ou d'une traction exercée par son utilisateur, et en outre rester en position stable dès que la poussée ou la traction est annulée.The bag further comprises at least two wheels 11, 12, advantageously four, so that the bag can roll on the ground in a stable position, only under the effect of a push or a traction exerted by its user, and in addition, remain in a stable position as soon as the thrust or traction is canceled.

De façon classique en la matière, chaque roulette comporte au moins une roue 101, 201 comportant un moyeu entouré éventuellement d'une bande de roulement et un carter 102, 202, et des moyens pour monter la roue 101, 201 en rotation par rapport au carter.In a conventional manner, each wheel comprises at least one wheel 101, 201 having a hub optionally surrounded by a tread and a housing 102, 202, and means for mounting the wheel 101, 201 in rotation relative to the housing.

Sont aussi prévus des moyens 110, 210 pour monter les deux carters 102, 202 en coopération avec le coffre 10, par exemple, de façon connue en elle-même comme schématiquement illustré sur les figures, un pivot dont une extrémité est liée au coffre et l'autre au carter de la roue, ce qui permet à la roulette de tourner autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à celui de la roue par rapport à son carter.Means 110, 210 are also provided for mounting the two housings 102, 202 in cooperation with the trunk 10, for example, in a manner known per se schematically illustrated in the figures, a pivot one end of which is connected to the trunk and the other to the casing of the wheel, which allows the wheel to rotate about an axis perpendicular to that of the wheel relative to its housing.

La valise comporte également une poignée 20 et des moyens 30 pour monter la poignée en coopération avec le coffre 10 de façon qu'elle soit apte à prendre au moins deux positions, une première position dans laquelle elle est à proximité du coffre, par exemple dans un logement agencé en surface arrière du coffre, et une seconde position dans laquelle elle est plus éloignée du coffre que lorsqu'elle est dans sa première position, par exemple comme illustré sur la figure 1.The case also comprises a handle 20 and means 30 for mounting the handle in cooperation with the box 10 so that it is able to take at least two positions, a first position in which it is close to the box, for example in a housing arranged on the rear surface of the trunk, and a second position in which it is farther from the trunk than when it is in its first position, for example as illustrated in FIG. figure 1 .

Selon une caractéristique de l'invention, la valise comporte des moyens de blocage-déblocage de la roue de chacune des deux roulettes 11, 12.According to one characteristic of the invention, the bag comprises locking-unlocking means of the wheel of each of the two rollers 11, 12.

Ces moyens de blocage-déblocage comportent au moins un premier élément de commande 103, 203 et sont agencés de façon qu'ils soient aptes à prendre deux états, un état de blocage et un état de déblocage, l'état de blocage étant un état stable, le passage de l'état de blocage à l'état de déblocage étant obtenu par application d'une force de traction sur ce premier élément de commande 103, 203.These locking-unlocking means comprise at least a first control element 103, 203 and are arranged so that they are capable of taking two states, a blocking state and a deblocking state, the blocking state being a state stable, the transition from the blocking state to the unlocking state being obtained by applying a traction force to this first control element 103, 203.

De cette façon, lorsque la valise n'est pas contrôlée par son utilisateur, c'est-à-dire ni poussée ni tractée, elle peut rester en place de façon stable car les deux roulettes sont toutes les deux bloquées.In this way, when the bag is not controlled by its user, that is to say neither thrust nor towed, it can remain in place stably because the two wheels are both blocked.

La valise comporte en outre des moyens commandables 50 pour engendrer la force de traction montés en coopération avec la poignée et des moyens pour transmettre cette force de traction au premier élément de commande 103, 203 de chaque roue 101, 201.The bag further comprises controllable means 50 for generating the traction force mounted in cooperation with the handle and means for transmitting this traction force to the first control member 103, 203 of each wheel 101, 201.

Selon une réalisation particulièrement préférentielle, les moyens de blocage-déblocage de la roue 101, 201 de chaque roulette 11, 12 comportent un second élément de commande 104, 204 solidaire du moyeu, les premier et second éléments de commande 103, 203 ; 104, 204 étant aptes à coopérer entre eux dans deux positions relatives, une première position dans laquelle ils sont couplés entre eux pour obtenir le blocage de la rotation du moyeu 101, 201 de la roue (Figures 1 et 2), une seconde position dans laquelle ils sont découplés pour permettre la rotation libre du moyeu 101, 201 par rapport au carter de la roue 102, 202.According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the locking-unlocking means of the wheel 101, 201 of each wheel 11, 12 comprise a second control element 104, 204 integral with the hub, the first and second control elements 103, 203; 104, 204 being able to cooperate with each other in two relative positions, a first position in which they are coupled together to obtain the locking of the rotation of the hub 101, 201 of the wheel ( Figures 1 and 2 ), a second position in which they are decoupled to allow free rotation of the hub 101, 201 relative to the housing of the wheel 102, 202.

Dans une réalisation préférentielle, comme celle illustrée sur les deux figures, et à plus grande échelle sur la figure 2, le second élément de commande 104, 204 est constitué d'au moins une rainure 105, 205 réalisée sur le moyeu de la roue 101, 201, de préférence une pluralité de rainures sur tout le pourtour du moyeu, et le premier élément de commande 103, 203 est constitué d'un levier 106, 206 monté rotatif à une de ses extrémités sur le carter 102, 202 et d'un ergot 107, 207 solidaire de ce levier, cet ergot étant agencé sur le levier de façon que, selon la rotation du levier, il soit apte à plonger dans la rainure ou à en sortir.In a preferred embodiment, such as that illustrated in the two figures, and on a larger scale on the figure 2 the second control element 104, 204 consists of at least one groove 105, 205 formed on the hub of the wheel 101, 201, preferably a plurality of grooves around the entire periphery of the hub, and the first control element 103, 203 consists of a lever 106, 206 rotatably mounted at one of its ends on the housing 102, 202 and a lug 107, 207 integral with the lever, this lug being arranged on the lever so that, according to the rotation of the lever, it is able to plunge into the groove or out.

Selon une réalisation possible, la première position dans laquelle les deux éléments de commande 103, 203 ; 104, 204 sont couplés entre eux pour obtenir le blocage peut être obtenue grâce uniquement à la force de la pesanteur exercée sur le premier élément. Cependant, de façon préférentielle, pour obtenir une sécurité du blocage 103, 203, la valise comporte en outre des moyens pour soumettre ce premier élément à une force élastique pour tendre à amener les deux éléments dans leur première position.According to one possible embodiment, the first position in which the two control elements 103, 203; 104, 204 are coupled together to achieve the blocking can be achieved solely by the force of gravity exerted on the first element. However, preferably, in order to obtain security of the blocking 103, 203, the bag further comprises means for subjecting said first element to an elastic force so as to tend to bring the two elements into their first position.

Selon ce mode de réalisation, les moyens pour soumettre le premier élément de commande 103, 203, c'est-à-dire le levier 106, 206 et l'ergot 105, 205, à une force élastique sont constitués par un ressort 108, 208 monté en compression entre le carter 102, 202 et le levier 106, 206. Sur les figures, chaque ressort a été représenté de façon dissociée du levier correspondant, pour bien faire comprendre la structure et la fonction de ces moyens, mais ces ressorts doivent être compris comme pouvant avoir d'autres formes et structures.According to this embodiment, the means for subjecting the first control element 103, 203, that is to say the lever 106, 206 and the lug 105, 205, to an elastic force are constituted by a spring 108, 208 in the compression between the housing 102, 202 and the lever 106, 206. In the figures, each spring has been shown dissociated from the corresponding lever, to make clear the structure and function of these means, but these springs must be understood as having other forms and structures.

Notamment, ces moyens de ressort peuvent même être constitués par le levier lui-même constitué d'une lame souple élastique montée rotative à une de ses extrémités sur le carter 102, 202 de la roue, comme illustré sur la figure 2, et en coopération avec une butée Bt solidaire du carter en un point tel que, lorsque la lame est en position de repos, c'est-à-dire non soumise à la force de traction Ft, l'ergot qu'elle porte soit enfiché dans une rainure. Le passage de la lame, de sa première position de blocage de la roue à sa seconde position de déblocage de la roue, est obtenu par déformation élastique en étant bandée, à la manière d'un arc, sous la force de traction exercée à l'aide des moyens commandables 50.In particular, these spring means can even be constituted by the lever itself consisting of a resilient flexible blade rotatably mounted at one of its ends on the casing 102, 202 of the wheel, as illustrated in FIG. figure 2 , and in cooperation with a stop Bt integral with the casing at a point such that, when the blade is in the rest position, that is to say not subjected to the tensile force Ft, the lug it carries is plugged into a groove. The passage of the blade from its first locking position of the wheel to its second unlocking position of the wheel is obtained by elastic deformation by being bandaged, in the manner of an arc, under the tensile force exerted on the wheel. help from commandable means 50.

Selon une autre caractéristique très préférentielle de l'invention, les moyens commandables 50 pour engendrer la force de traction sont constitués par un tambour 51 ou analogue, des moyens 53 pour monter le tambour 51 en rotation par rapport à la poignée 20 et une manette 52 montée en coopération avec le tambour pour être apte à l'entraîner en rotation.According to another very preferred characteristic of the invention, the controllable means 50 for generating the traction force consist of a drum 51 or the like, means 53 for mounting the drum 51 in rotation with respect to the handle 20 and a handle 52 mounted in cooperation with the drum to be able to rotate it.

Quant aux moyens pour transmettre la force de traction aux deux premiers éléments de commande 103, 203, ils sont très avantageusement constitués par un câble souple non-extensible 61 dont une première extrémité est fixée au tambour 51, deux brins de câble 62, 63 montés en parallèle, des moyens 66 pour associer chaque première extrémité des deux brins de câble 62, 63 à la seconde extrémité du câble 61, les secondes extrémités des deux brins de câble 62, 63 étant respectivement liées aux premiers éléments de commande 103, 203 pour que les deux brins de câble soient aptes à actionner simultanément ces deux premiers éléments, et des moyens pour guider le câble et les deux brins de câble quand ils transmettent la force de traction respectivement aux deux premiers éléments de commande comme il sera explicité ci-après.As for the means for transmitting the traction force to the first two control elements 103, 203, they are very advantageously constituted by a non-extensible flexible cable 61, a first end of which is fixed to the drum 51, two cable strands 62, 63 mounted in parallel, means 66 for associating each first end of the two cable strands 62, 63 with the second end of the cable 61, the second ends of the two cable strands 62, 63 being respectively linked to the first control elements 103, 203 for that the two strands of cable are able to simultaneously actuate these two first elements, and means for guiding the cable and the two cable strands when they transmit the traction force respectively to the first two control elements as will be explained below .

De façon tout à fait avantageuse, les moyens pour guider le câble 61 et les deux brins de câble 62, 63 comportent des gaines souples et non-extensibles 65, le câble et les deux brins de câble étant montés coulissants dans ces gaines 65, figures 1 et 2.Advantageously, the means for guiding the cable 61 and the two cable strands 62, 63 comprise flexible and non-extensible sheaths 65, the cable and the two cable strands being slidably mounted in these sheaths 65, figures 1 and 2 .

Quant aux moyens 66 pour associer chaque première extrémité des deux brins de câble 62, 63 à la seconde extrémité du câble 61, ils comportent très préférentiellement un boîtier 67 de forme intérieure cylindrique de préférence de révolution, à trois entrées par lesquelles passent librement respectivement la seconde extrémité du câble et les premières extrémités des deux brins de câble, les gaines 65 étant montées en coopération avec ces entrées du boîtier, par exemple en butée sur le bord de ces entrées, et une barre de liaison 68 (comme une tige, une plaque, une grille, etc.) montée en translation dans le boîtier 67 avantageusement à la façon d'un piston dans son cylindre, la seconde extrémité du câble et les premières extrémités des deux brins de câble étant solidaires de cette barre de liaison 68.As for the means 66 for associating each first end of the two cable strands 62, 63 with the second end of the cable 61, they very preferably comprise a housing 67 of cylindrical internal shape, preferably of revolution, with three inputs through which the second end of the cable and the first ends of the two cable strands, the sleeves 65 being mounted in cooperation with these inputs of the housing, for example abutting the edge of these inputs, and a connecting bar 68 (such as a rod, a plate, a grid, etc.) mounted in translation in the housing 67 advantageously in the manner of a piston in its cylinder, the second end of the cable and the first ends of the two cable strands being integral with this connecting bar 68.

Selon une réalisation particulièrement préférentielle, les moyens 30 pour monter la poignée 20 en coopération avec le coffre 10 sont constitués par au moins un premier tube creux 31 et un second tube creux 32, le premier tube étant monté coulissant de façon télescopique dans le second tube. La poignée 20 est solidaire du premier tube 31 et le second tube 32 est solidaire du coffre 10. Le câble 61 est monté coulissant au moins partiellement dans le premier tube 31 qui constitue, pour la partie du câble 61 qui est y est contenue, une partie des moyens pour guider ce câble 61, les gaines souples 65 pour le guidage du câble et des deux brins de câble étant comprises d'une part entre l'extrémité du tube 31 et le boîtier 67, et d'autre part entre le boîtier 67 et les deux moyens de pivots 110, 210, associés au deux roulettes 11, 12 comme donné à titre d'exemple avantageux ci-avant.According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the means 30 for mounting the handle 20 in cooperation with the box 10 are constituted by at least a first hollow tube 31 and a second hollow tube 32, the first tube being mounted telescopically sliding in the second tube . The handle 20 is secured to the first tube 31 and the second tube 32 is secured to the box 10. The cable 61 is slidably mounted at least partially in the first tube 31 which constitutes, for the part of the cable 61 which is contained therein, a part of the means for guiding the cable 61, the flexible sheaths 65 for guiding the cable and the two cable strands being comprised, on the one hand, between the end of the tube 31 and the casing 67, and on the other hand between the casing 67 and the two pivot means 110, 210, associated with the two rollers 11, 12 as given by way of advantageous example above.

La valise décrite ci-dessus s'utilise de la façon suivante :

  • Il est tout d'abord supposé que, dans cet exemple de fonctionnement, la valise comporte trois roulettes, quatre étant en général préférable, dont deux 11, 12 comportent des moyens de blocage comme décrit ci-dessus, de façon que la valise puisse reposer sur le sol So de façon stable et s'y déplacer par roulement sous l'action uniquement d'une poussée ou d'une traction.
  • Si aucune pression n'est exercée sur la manette 52, sous l'action des moyens de ressort 108, 208, les premier et second éléments de commande 103, 203 ; 104, 204 coopèrent en étant dans leur première position, c'est-à-dire la position de blocage de la rotation des deux roulettes 11, 12. Comme les deux roulettes 11, 12, sont bloquées simultanément, la valise ne peut subir aucun déplacement sur le sol, même accidentel, et elle reste en place dans un état stable sans que son utilisateur n'ait à agir sur elle pour la maintenir de quelque façon que ce soit.
The suitcase described above is used as follows:
  • It is first assumed that, in this example of operation, the bag has three wheels, four being generally preferable, two of which 11, 12 comprise locking means as described above, so that the bag can rest on the floor So stably and move there by rolling under the action only of thrust or traction.
  • If no pressure is exerted on the handle 52, under the action of the spring means 108, 208, the first and second control members 103, 203; 104, 204 cooperate in being in their first position, that is to say the locking position of the rotation of the two rollers 11, 12. As the two rollers 11, 12 are locked simultaneously, the bag can not be subjected to any moving on the ground, even accidental, and it remains in place in a stable state without the user having to act on it to maintain it in any way.

En revanche, si l'utilisateur veut déplacer la valise, il agit sur la manette 52 en la tournant dans le sens dextrorsum, selon la flèche FI en référence à la figure 2, ce qui entraîne le tambour 51 dans la même rotation, et donc l'enroulement du câble 61 sur le tambour. Cet enroulement engendre une traction sur le câble 61 et aussi sur les deux brins de câble 62, 63 via la barre 68 dans le boîtier 67, qui est transmise aux leviers 106, 206, ce qui entraîne la sortie des ergots 107, 207 hors des rainures 105, 205. Les roues 101, 201 sont alors débloquées et peuvent tourner librement par rapport à leur carter 102, 202, et donc rouler sur le sol So.However, if the user wants to move the bag, it acts on the lever 52 by turning it in the direction of dextrorsum, according to the arrow FI with reference to the figure 2 , which causes the drum 51 in the same rotation, and thus the winding of the cable 61 on the drum. This winding causes traction on the cable 61 and also on the two cable strands 62, 63 via the bar 68 in the housing 67, which is transmitted to the levers 106, 206, which causes the pins 107, 207 to exit the grooves 105, 205. The wheels 101, 201 are then unlocked and can rotate freely relative to their housing 102, 202, and thus roll on So soil.

S'il veut continuer à la déplacer sur le sol So en la faisant rouler sur ses roulettes 11, 12, il suffit à l'utilisateur de la valise de tenir, d'une seule main, à la fois la poignée 20 et la manette 52 pivotée comme décrit ci-dessus, car la pression ainsi exercée sur la manette maintient les roulettes 11, 12 débloquées.If he wants to continue to move it on the ground So by rolling it on its wheels 11, 12, it is sufficient for the user of the bag to hold, with one hand, both the handle 20 and the joystick 52 pivoted as described above, because the pressure thus exerted on the handle maintains the wheels 11, 12 unlocked.

Si l'utilisateur veut ne plus rouler la valise et la laisser reposer sur le sol So, il lui suffit de lâcher à la fois la poignée 20 et la manette 52. Cette dernière revient à sa position origine sous l'action des deux ressorts 108, 208 qui est transmise au tambour par les brins de câble 62, 63 et le câble 61. Les deux ergots replongent automatiquement dans des rainures, ce qui entraîne le blocage simultané des deux roulettes comme décrit ci-avant.If the user does not want to roll the bag and let it rest on the ground So, it suffices to release both the handle 20 and the lever 52. The latter returns to its original position under the action of the two springs 108 , 208 which is transmitted to the drum by the cable strands 62, 63 and the cable 61. The two pins automatically plunge into grooves, which causes the simultaneous locking of the two wheels as described above.

Le fait que la structure décrite ci-dessus de la valise selon l'invention permet de bloquer simultanément les deux roulettes confère à cette valise un avantage important par rapport à une valise dont une seule roulette serait bloquée. Car, dans ce dernier cas, la valise peut pivoter autour d'un axe vertical passant par la roulette bloquée, au risque de créer des troubles pouvant avoir des conséquences dommageables.The fact that the structure described above of the bag according to the invention makes it possible to block both casters simultaneously confers on this bag a significant advantage over a suitcase of which only one caster would be locked. Because, in the latter case, the bag can rotate around an axis vertical through the locked roulette, at the risk of creating disorders that can have harmful consequences.

De plus, le blocage des deux roulettes de la valise est possible quelle que soit la position de la poignée par rapport au caisson, puisque les gaines souples 65 permettent de guider le câble 61 et les deux brins de câble 62, 63 quelle que soit cette position. En effet, si la poignée est dans sa première position définie ci-avant, la souplesse de la gaine dans laquelle passe le câble 61 permet à cette gaine de suivre la position de la poignée, l'ensemble "gaine-câble 61" prenant alors une configuration comme celle qui est représentée sur la figure 1 en traits interrompus Pr. Lorsque la poignée est dans sa seconde position, l'ensemble "gaine-câble 61" prend une configuration comme celle qui est représentée sur cette même figure 1 en traits pleins Ps.In addition, the locking of the two wheels of the bag is possible regardless of the position of the handle relative to the box, since the flexible sleeves 65 can guide the cable 61 and the two cable strands 62, 63 whatever this position. Indeed, if the handle is in its first position defined above, the flexibility of the sheath in which the cable 61 passes allows the sheath to follow the position of the handle, the assembly "sheath-cable 61" then taking a configuration like the one represented on the figure 1 in broken lines Pr. When the handle is in its second position, the assembly "sheath-cable 61" takes a configuration like that which is represented on this same figure 1 in solid lines Ps.

Bien entendu, les éléments représentés sur la figure 1, en l'occurrence les tubes 32, la gaine 65 et le boîtier 67, peuvent être protégés par une plaque les recouvrant, ou même disposés dans ce que l'on dénomme un double-fond d'une valise.Of course, the elements represented on the figure 1 , in this case the tubes 32, the sheath 65 and the housing 67, may be protected by a plate covering them, or even arranged in what is called a double bottom of a suitcase.
