Une course totale de 50 à 60 mm suffit en général pour toutes les morphologies d'utilisateurs.In a particular variant, the forearm supports 3D, 3G, each comprise a
Plus particulièrement, le poste de travail 1 comporte un moteur unique, et les moyens de réglage 4 commandent des éléments d'une timonerie 5 pour imprimer différents mouvements aux supports d'avant-bras 3D, 3G.More particularly, the
De façon avantageuse, et particulièrement utile lors des réglages initiaux, les moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation sont agencés pour permettre un retour instantané à une position symétrique des supports d'avant-bras 3D, 3G, par rapport à un plan de symétrie PS de la plate-forme de travail 2, en réponse à une action d'un utilisateur sur une interface utilisateur 400 reliée aux moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation. En effet, pour un réglage optimal, l'utilisateur part d'une position parfaitement symétrique, et effectue des réglages différentiels jusqu'à l'obtention d'une position de travail qui lui convienne.Advantageously, and particularly useful during initial adjustments, the control means 40 and storage are arranged to allow instantaneous return to a symmetrical position of the forearm supports 3D, 3G, relative to a symmetry plane PS of the
Les moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation peuvent, encore, avantageusement être agencés pour commander, directement ou par l'intermédiaire des moyens de réglage 4, des fonctions annexes, ou des moyens d'élévation 60 agencés pour commander un mouvement vertical de la plate-forme de travail 2 par rapport à un bâti 10, ou des mouvements de manoeuvre 70 d'accessoires 11 positionnés sur une surface supérieure 9 de la plate-forme de travail 2.The control means 40 and storage may, again, advantageously be arranged to control, directly or through the adjustment means 4, auxiliary functions, or elevation means 60 arranged to control a vertical movement of the
La plate-forme de travail 2 peut, encore, si nécessaire être inclinée, et son dévers face à l'utilisateur peut être ajusté, de l'ordre de plus ou moins 2° par rapport à un plan horizontal; au-delà de ces valeurs, il vaut mieux positionner un plateau multi-axes, notamment cinq axes, sur la plate-forme 2.The working
Les
Dans une variante plus complète encore, le poste de travail comporte un siège pour l'utilisateur, muni de capteurs d'effort reliés aux moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation. En particulier, des capteurs de poids permettent aux moyens de pilotage 40 d'appliquer des périodes de modification de position plus courtes pour les personnes les plus lourdes.In a still more complete variant, the workstation comprises a seat for the user, equipped with force sensors connected to the control means 40 and memory. In particular, weight sensors allow the control means 40 to apply shorter position modification periods for the heavier persons.
Et, plus particulièrement, les moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation sont alors agencés pour commander les moyens de réglage 4 pour ajuster la distance entre le siège et la plate-forme de travail 2. Naturellement, des capteurs de couple ou d'effort sont agencés pour stopper tout mouvement relatif en cas de pincement ou d'écrasement d'un membre.And, more particularly, the control means 40 and storage are then arranged to control the adjustment means 4 to adjust the distance between the seat and the
Naturellement, un tel siège peut lui aussi être équipé comme les supports d'avant-bras 3D, 3G, pour assurer un confort lombaire, un bon appui du cou pour la protection des vertèbres cervicales, une inclinaison d'appuie-tête, ou encore un maintien au niveau des aisselles, ou autre.Naturally, such a seat can also be equipped with 3D forearm supports, 3G, to ensure lumbar comfort, a good neck support for the protection of the cervical vertebrae, inclination of the head restraint, or maintenance in the armpits, or other.
L'invention se prête bien à une fabrication modulaire pour améliorer un poste de travail existant. Notamment un module élémentaire peut consister en un support d'avant-bras unique, 3D ou 3G, équipé pour autoriser des mouvements sur plusieurs degrés de liberté, et pré-disposé pour une motorisation par un équipement de timonerie pré-monté. Le même module peut, encore, comporter un moteur d'actionnement, et des raccordements vers une interface utilisateur 400, des moyens de pilotage 40 et de mémorisation, et des moyens de réglage 4. Un module double consiste en un châssis équipé des deux supports d'avant-bras 3D et 3G, en version mécanique prédisposée à la motorisation, ou bien déjà motorisée.The invention lends itself well to modular manufacturing to improve an existing workstation. In particular, an elementary module may consist of a single forearm support, 3D or 3G, equipped to allow movements on several degrees of freedom, and pre-arranged for motorization by pre-assembled wheelhouse equipment. The same module may also include an actuating motor, and connections to a
