Description

Domaine technique de l'inventionTechnical field of the invention

La présente invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'une étagère contre un support, avantageusement un mur, une porte ou tout autre équipement se trouvant sensiblement dans un plan vertical ainsi qu'une étagère fixée sur son support par un tel dispositif de fixation.The present invention relates to a device for fixing a shelf against a support, advantageously a wall, a door or any other equipment located substantially in a vertical plane as well as a shelf fixed to its support by such a fixing device.

Art antérieurPrior art

Il est connu de monter une étagère contre un support par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de fixation. Le dispositif de fixation comprend des première et deuxième parties de forme allongée. La première partie est destinée à être mise en appui contre le support et la deuxième partie se fixe de manière amovible contre la première partie par au moins un moyen de fixation traversant les première et deuxième parties en position montée du dispositif.It is known to mount a shelf against a support via a fixing device. The fixing device includes first and second elongated portions. The first part is intended to be placed against the support and the second part is removably fixed against the first part by at least one fixing means passing through the first and second parts in the mounted position of the device.

Par exemple, le document WO-A-2018/028842 décrit, dans des modes de réalisation, un dispositif de fixation d'une étagère en deux parties. La première partie du dispositif est fixée au mur et insère en son intérieur creux une deuxième partie du dispositif encadrant une tablette de l'étagère.For example, the document WO-A-2018/028842 Embodiments describe a two-piece shelf attachment device. The first part of the device is fixed to the wall and inserts into its hollow interior a second part of the device framing a shelf of the shelf.

Comme la première partie est fixée contre le mur et la deuxième partie du dispositif de fixation est insérée par coulissement latéral dans la première partie.As the first part is fixed against the wall and the second part of the fixing device is inserted by lateral sliding into the first part.

Pour la configuration proposée dans ce document, la solidarisation de la première partie avec la deuxième partie peut ne pas résister sous forte sollicitation de l'étagère, principalement sous l'effet du poids de l'élément ou des éléments posés sur la tablette de l'étagère. En effet, le bras de la première partie supportant la deuxième partie peut casser, la deuxième partie supportant la tablette de l'étagère.For the configuration proposed in this document, the connection of the first part with the second part may not resist strong stress on the shelf, mainly under the effect of the weight of the element or elements placed on the shelf of the shelf. 'shelf. Indeed, the arm of the first part supporting the second part can break, the second part supporting the shelf shelf.

De plus, il n'est pas prévu dans ce document des éléments de fixation pouvant permettre de solidariser plus efficacement la deuxième partie à la première partie et la solidarisation entre les première et deuxième parties du dispositif est une solidarisation par forme et non par coopération de moyens portés par les première et deuxième parties, ce qui est beaucoup moins résistant. Un autre dispositif connu est décrit dans US2006049323A1 .Furthermore, there is no provision in this document for fixing elements which can make it possible to more effectively join the second part to the first part and the connection between the first and second parts of the device is a connection by form and not by cooperation of means carried by the first and second parties, which is much less resistant. Another known device is described in US2006049323A1 .

Par conséquent, le problème à la base de l'invention est de concevoir un dispositif de fixation d'une étagère contre un support, le dispositif de fixation étant en deux parties distinctes et assurant, d'une part, un renforcement du maintien entre les deux parties en position montée du dispositif et, d'autre part, un montage facilité du dispositif de fixation contre le support.Consequently, the problem underlying the invention is to design a device for fixing a shelf against a support, the fixing device being in two distinct parts and ensuring, on the one hand, reinforcement of the support between the two parts in the mounted position of the device and, on the other hand, easy mounting of the fixing device against the support.

Résumé de l'inventionSummary of the invention

A cet effet, la présente invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'une étagère contre un support, le dispositif comprenant des première et deuxième parties de forme allongée, la première partie étant destinée à être mise en appui contre le support et la deuxième partie se fixant de manière amovible contre la première partie par au moins un moyen de fixation traversant les première et deuxième parties en position montée du dispositif, caractérisé en ce que des faces en vis-à-vis des première et deuxième parties portent chacune, d'une part, un jeu d'au moins deux rainures parallèles et longitudinales et, d'autre part, une forme saillante longitudinale, la forme saillante étant portée à distance du jeu desdits au moins deux rainures sur chacune des faces en vis-à-vis des première et deuxième parties, avec, en position montée du dispositif, la forme saillante portée par la première partie s'insérant dans une des rainures portées par la deuxième partie tandis que la forme saillante portée par la deuxième partie est insérée dans une des rainures portées par la première partie, ou l'une des parties comporte deux formes saillantes et l'autre partie comporte un jeu d'au moins quatre rainures parallèles et longitudinales avec, en position montée du dispositif, les formes saillantes (5) portées par l'une des parties s'insérant dans des rainures portées par l'autre partie et en ce que les rainures de chaque jeu sont en dents de scie et les formes saillantes présentent une section triangulaire et en ce que le moyen de fixation est destiné à fixer le dispositif de fixation d'une étagère contre le support, en position montée du dispositif.For this purpose, the present invention relates to a device for fixing a shelf against a support, the device comprising first and second parts of elongated shape, the first part being intended to be placed against the support and the second part being fixing removably against the first part by at least one fixing means passing through the first and second parts in the mounted position of the device, characterized in that faces facing the first and second parts each carry, of a on the one hand, a set of at least two parallel and longitudinal grooves and, on the other hand, a longitudinal projecting shape, the projecting shape being carried at a distance from the set of said at least two grooves on each of the faces facing the first and second parts, with, in the mounted position of the device, the projecting shape carried by the first part inserting into one of the grooves carried by the second part while the projecting shape carried by the second part is inserted into one of the grooves carried by the first part, or one of the parts comprises two projecting shapes and the other part comprises a set of at least four parallel and longitudinal grooves with, in the mounted position of the device, the projecting shapes (5) carried by one of the parts inserting into grooves carried by the other part and in that the grooves of each set are sawtoothed and the projecting shapes have a triangular section and in that the fixing means is intended to fix the device for fixing a shelf against the support, in the mounted position of the device .

L'effet technique obtenue est une simplicité de montage associée à une position montée plus résistante en cumulant plusieurs points de maintien et aussi à un réglage en hauteur de l'étagère en sélectionnant une desdites au moins deux rainures, ces rainures se trouvant à différents niveaux de hauteur, une fois le dispositif de fixation monté.The technical effect obtained is simplicity of assembly associated with a more resistant mounted position by combining several holding points and also with a height adjustment of the shelf by selecting one of said at least two grooves, these grooves being at different levels in height, once the fixing device is mounted.

L'insertion de la forme saillante dans une rainure correspondante se fait par simple poussée ou coulissement de la deuxième partie contre la première partie du dispositif de fixation et ne nécessite pas de moyens auxiliaires de fixation. Ce maintien se fait en plusieurs endroits du dispositif et est donc résistant à une force exercée sur le dispositif de fixation.The insertion of the protruding shape into a corresponding groove is done by simple pushing or sliding of the second part against the first part of the fixing device and does not require auxiliary fixing means. This retention is done in several places on the device and is therefore resistant to a force exerted on the fixing device.

D'un côté, la première partie portant un jeu d'au moins deux rainures maintient la forme saillante de la deuxième partie, au moins pour un maintien provisoire, le maintien définitif étant obtenu par la mise en place des moyens de fixation du dispositif avec le support, ces moyens traversant les première et deuxième parties.On one side, the first part carrying a set of at least two grooves maintains the projecting shape of the second part, at least for temporary retention, the definitive retention being obtained by the installation of the means for fixing the device with the support, these means passing through the first and second parts.

Un tel maintien provisoire pris individuellement ne serait pas symétrique et pour augmenter sa solidité, la présente invention prévoit de maintenir la forme saillante portée par la première partie dans une rainure portée par la deuxième partie.Such temporary support taken individually would not be symmetrical and to increase its solidity, the present invention provides for maintaining the projecting shape carried by the first part in a groove carried by the second part.

Il peut ainsi exister un double maintien symétrique avantageusement réparti sur des portions opposées des première et deuxième parties, afin de répartir le maintien sur toute la surface de contact des première et deuxième parties.There can thus be a double symmetrical support advantageously distributed over opposite portions of the first and second parts, in order to distribute the support over the entire contact surface of the first and second parts.

Cet avantage n'est pas le seul. Un autre avantage important est que ce maintien provisoire, en attente d'une fixation finale avec le support par les moyens de fixation traversant les première et deuxième parties, permet de conserver la position de la deuxième partie par rapport à la première partie sans qu'un opérateur ait à effectuer ce maintien manuellement. L'opérateur a ainsi ses deux mains libres pour effectuer la fixation des moyens de fixation, avantageusement par vissage.This advantage is not the only one. Another important advantage is that this temporary holding, pending final fixing with the support by the fixing means passing through the first and second parts, makes it possible to maintain the position of the second part relative to the first part without an operator has to carry out this maintenance manually. The operator thus has both hands free to attach the fixing means, advantageously by screwing.

Le choix d'un jeu comprenant plusieurs rainures permet de sélectionner une hauteur de la deuxième partie du dispositif par rapport à la première partie, ce qui se répercutera sur la hauteur de la tablette de l'étagère lors du montage final de l'étagère. Deux rainures pour chaque jeu est un minimum et il est préférable d'avoir au moins trois rainures pour ajuster le niveau futur de la tablette de l'étagère.Choosing a set comprising several grooves makes it possible to select a height of the second part of the device relative to the first part, which will have an impact on the height of the shelf shelf during final assembly of the shelf. Two grooves for each set is a minimum and it is best to have at least three grooves to adjust the future level of the shelf shelf.

Le jeu de rainures des première et deuxième parties est à placer précisément sur chaque première ou deuxième partie pour que, quand la forme saillante de la première partie pénètre dans une rainure de la deuxième partie, la forme saillante de la deuxième partie pénètre dans une rainure de la première partie pour assurer le maintien symétrique.The set of grooves of the first and second parts is to be placed precisely on each first or second part so that, when the protruding shape of the first part enters a groove of the second part, the protruding shape of the second part enters a groove of the first part to ensure symmetrical maintenance.

Avantageusement, chaque rainure du jeu d'au moins deux rainures porté respectivement par la première partie ou la deuxième partie présente une dimension juste suffisante pour recevoir et maintenir la forme saillante portée respectivement par la deuxième partie ou la première partie.Advantageously, each groove of the set of at least two grooves carried respectively by the first part or the second part has a dimension just sufficient to receive and maintain the projecting shape carried respectively by the second part or the first part.

Avantageusement, d'une part, le jeu d'au moins deux rainures et, d'autre part, la forme saillante, sont portés à une extrémité latérale respective de la première partie du dispositif.Advantageously, on the one hand, the set of at least two grooves and, on the other hand, the projecting shape, are carried at a respective lateral end of the first part of the device.

Ceci permet de répartir le maintien des première et deuxième parties sur la totalité de leurs surfaces en vis-à-vis. Un maintien dans la longueur des première et deuxième parties est assuré par la longueur d'une rainure et d'une forme saillante associées. Un maintien latéral ou en hauteur contre un support en position verticale est assuré en disposant le jeu de rainures sur un côté latéral de la première ou la deuxième partie et la forme saillante sur l'autre côté latéral des première et deuxième parties.This makes it possible to distribute the support of the first and second parts over the entirety of their facing surfaces. Maintaining the length of the first and second parts is ensured by the length of a groove and an associated projecting shape. Lateral or height support against a support in a vertical position is ensured by arranging the set of grooves on one lateral side of the first or second part and the projecting shape on the other lateral side of the first and second parts.

Avantageusement, les rainures de chaque jeu sont en dents de scie et la forme saillante présente une section triangulaire, une profondeur de chaque rainure variant du tiers à la moitié de l'épaisseur de la première partie du dispositif.Advantageously, the grooves of each set are sawtooth and the projecting shape has a triangular section, a depth of each groove varying from a third to half of the thickness of the first part of the device.

Plus la profondeur de la rainure est grande et plus le maintien est fort, ceci cependant au détriment de la solidité de la première partie moins épaisse au niveau des rainures. Prévoir une telle profondeur du tiers à la moitié est un compromis entre la solidité du maintien entre une rainure et une forme saillante et la solidité de la première partie.The greater the depth of the groove, the stronger the hold, however this is to the detriment of the solidity of the first, thinner part at the level of the grooves. Providing such a depth of a third to a half is a compromise between the solidity of the support between a groove and a projecting shape and the solidity of the first part.

Avantageusement, la deuxième partie du dispositif est sous forme d'une équerre, avec une première branche de l'équerre s'étendant perpendiculairement à la première partie et une deuxième branche de l'équerre s'étendant dans un plan parallèle à un plan contenant au moins une majeure partie de la première partie, la deuxième branche de l'équerre portant la face de la deuxième partie du dispositif comportant un jeu de rainures et une forme saillante, une profondeur de chaque rainure variant du tiers à la moitié d'une épaisseur de la deuxième branche.Advantageously, the second part of the device is in the form of a bracket, with a first branch of the bracket extending perpendicular to the first part and a second branch of the bracket extending in a plane parallel to a plane containing at least a major part of the first part, the second branch of the bracket carrying the face of the second part of the device comprising a set of grooves and a projecting shape, a depth of each groove varying from a third to a half of a thickness of the second branch.

L'équerre en tant que deuxième partie présente de multiples avantages. La première branche de l'équerre supportera efficacement la tablette, tandis que la deuxième branche perpendiculaire à la première branche offrira une surface d'appui optimale de la deuxième partie contre la première partie.The square as a second part has multiple advantages. The first branch of the bracket will effectively support the shelf, while the second branch perpendicular to the first branch will provide an optimal support surface for the second part against the first part.

Avantageusement, la deuxième branche de l'équerre est traversée par au moins un évidement de passage dudit au moins un moyen de fixation de type vis, ledit au moins un évidement portant un lamage de réception d'une tête de vis sur une face de la deuxième branche opposée à la première partie et la première partie portant un trou oblong de passage de l'extrémité libre dudit au moins un moyen de fixation, l'extrémité libre dudit au moins un moyen de fixation étant destinée à être vissée dans le support.Advantageously, the second branch of the bracket is crossed by at least one passage recess of said at least one screw-type fixing means, said at least one recess carrying a countersink for receiving a screw head on one face of the second branch opposite the first part and the first part carrying an oblong hole for passage of the free end of said at least one fixing means, the free end of said at least one fixing means being intended to be screwed into the support.

L'utilisation de deux paires d'une forme saillante associée avec une rainure permet un maintien de la deuxième partie par rapport à la première partie. Ce maintien est renforcé par la fixation de la première partie et de la deuxième partie avec le support lors de la même fixation, ce qui facilite le montage.The use of two pairs of a projecting shape associated with a groove allows the second part to be maintained relative to the first part. This support is reinforced by the fixing of the first part and the second part with the support during the same fixing, which facilitates assembly.

Comme il pourrait y avoir nécessité de prévoir une liberté de jeu pour l'introduction des moyens de fixation dans la première partie, un trou oblong garantit une telle liberté de jeu entre les première et deuxième parties mais aussi entre le dispositif de fixation et le support. Par exemple, sans que cela soit limitatif, les moyens de fixation peuvent être chevillés dans le support.As it could be necessary to provide freedom of play for the introduction of the fixing means in the first part, an oblong hole guarantees such freedom of play between the first and second parts but also between the fixing device and the support . For example, without this being limiting, the fixing means can be pegged into the support.

Il est possible que le trou dans la première partie ne soit pas exactement positionné en alignement avec l'axe de chevillage dans le support : un trou oblong traversant la première partie permet de compenser un léger décalage entre le trou et l'axe de chevillage.It is possible that the hole in the first part is not exactly positioned in alignment with the doweling axis in the support: an oblong hole passing through the first part makes it possible to compensate for a slight offset between the hole and the doweling axis.

De plus, un lamage de réception, par exemple sous la forme d'un cône ou d'un cylindre creusé dans la deuxième branche permet de loger la tête de vis dans la deuxième branche de la deuxième partie du dispositif de fixation sans que la tête ne dépasse vers l'extérieur et vers la tablette de l'étagère.In addition, a receiving countersink, for example in the form of a cone or a cylinder hollowed out in the second branch, makes it possible to accommodate the screw head in the second branch of the second part of the fixing device without the head does not protrude outwards and towards the shelf shelf.

Il s'ensuit qu'un élément de fixation ou plusieurs éléments de fixation peuvent assurer, d'une part, la fixation de la deuxième partie sur la première partie du dispositif, ceci en complément des formes en saillie et des rainures et, d'autre part, la fixation du dispositif en un tout sur le support, ce qui est une économie de moyens et une simplification du procédé de montage.It follows that a fixing element or several fixing elements can ensure, on the one hand, the fixing of the second part on the first part of the device, this in addition to the projecting shapes and the grooves and, on the other hand, the fixing of the device as a whole on the support, which saves resources and simplifies the assembly process.

Avantageusement, la première branche de l'équerre comprend un rebord s'insérant sous la première partie en position montée du dispositif.Advantageously, the first branch of the bracket comprises a rim inserting under the first part in the mounted position of the device.

Ceci garantit une butée d'appui pour la deuxième partie contre la première partie une fois que cette deuxième partie et notamment la première branche de l'équerre supportera la tablette. Sous un poids élevé sur la tablette, la première branche de l'équerre de la deuxième partie peut fléchir mais le rebord viendra en butée haute contre la première partie et limitera ce fléchissement.This guarantees a support stop for the second part against the first part once this second part and in particular the first branch of the bracket will support the shelf. Under a high weight on the shelf, the first branch of the bracket of the second part may bend but the edge will come into high abutment against the first part and will limit this bending.

Avantageusement, le rebord dépasse du reste de la première branche d'une distance égale à l'épaisseur de la première partie du dispositif, les faces de la première partie et du rebord destinées à être en vis-à-vis du support étant dans un prolongement l'une de l'autre.Advantageously, the rim protrudes from the rest of the first branch by a distance equal to the thickness of the first part of the device, the faces of the first part and of the rim intended to be opposite the support being in a extension of each other.

Avantageusement, une face du rebord opposée à la deuxième branche est incurvée en étant de forme concave et un bord de la première branche opposée à la deuxième branche et à la première partie est arrondi.Advantageously, one face of the rim opposite the second branch is curved by being of concave shape and one edge of the first branch opposite the second branch and the first part is rounded.

Ceci est la face de l'étagère qui va être la plus visible, étant donné que l'étagère est destinée à être placée en hauteur, vraisemblablement au-dessus de la tête des personnes circulant dans son environnement. L'incurvation concave sert à augmenter l'esthétique de l'étagère et le bord arrondi sert à éviter de blesser des personnes pouvant se trouver dans l'environnement de l'étagère.This is the side of the shelf that will be the most visible, given that the shelf is intended to be placed high up, probably above the heads of people moving around its environment. The concave curvature serves to increase the aesthetics of the shelf and the rounded edge serves to avoid injury to people who may be in the environment of the shelf.

Avantageusement, la première partie porte une portion d'extrémité recourbée coiffant la deuxième partie. Cette portion d'extrémité recourbée peut déborder au-dessus de la tablette de l'étagère et assurer éventuellement un maintien ou une limitation des objets entreposés sur la tablette.Advantageously, the first part carries a curved end portion covering the second part. This curved end portion can extend above the shelf shelf and possibly provide support or limitation of the objects stored on the shelf.

L'invention concerne aussi une étagère caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend un tel dispositif de fixation, l'étagère comprenant une tablette solidarisée avec la deuxième partie du dispositif par des moyens de solidarisation amovible.The invention also relates to a shelf characterized in that it comprises such a fixing device, the shelf comprising a shelf secured to the second part of the device by removable securing means.

La tablette peut ainsi être montée sur l'étagère en tout dernier. Le poids de l'étagère est ainsi diminué lors du montage, ce qui est avantageux étant donné que le montage de l'étagère peut se faire généralement à bout de bras d'un opérateur et qu'un poids élevé est alors très défavorable.The tablet can therefore be mounted on the shelf at the very last. The weight of the shelf is thus reduced during assembly, which is advantageous given that the assembly of the shelf can generally be done at arm's length of an operator and a high weight is then very unfavorable.

L'invention concerne enfin un procédé de montage d'une telle étagère contre un support, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend les étapes suivantes :

  • application de la première partie du dispositif contre le support,
  • rapprochement de la deuxième partie du dispositif de la première partie, au moins un moyen de fixation traversant la deuxième partie en pointant vers la première partie et pénétrant dans la première partie en fin de rapprochement,
  • initiation d'une fixation au moins préalable dudit au moins un moyen de fixation avec le support, la fixation au moins préalable étant juste suffisante pour maintenir la première partie par rapport au support et la deuxième partie en vis-à-vis de la première partie,
  • application de la deuxième partie sur la première partie avec insertion des formes saillantes portées respectivement par les première et deuxième parties dans une rainure du jeu de rainures porté respectivement par les deuxième et première parties avec un maintien provisoire en position montée du dispositif,
  • fixation complète dudit au moins un moyen de fixation avec le support avec maintien de la deuxième partie par rapport à la première partie et obtention d'une position montée finale du dispositif,
  • solidarisation d'une tablette sur la deuxième partie du dispositif de fixation.
The invention finally relates to a method of mounting such a shelf against a support, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:
  • application of the first part of the device against the support,
  • bringing the second part of the device closer to the first part, at least one fixing means passing through the second part pointing towards the first part and penetrating the first part at the end of the approximation,
  • initiation of at least prior fixing of said at least one fixing means with the support, the at least prior fixing being just sufficient to maintain the first part relative to the support and the second part opposite the first part ,
  • application of the second part to the first part with insertion of the projecting shapes carried respectively by the first and second parts in a groove of the set of grooves carried respectively by the second and first parts with temporary maintenance in the mounted position of the device,
  • complete fixing of said at least one fixing means with the support with maintaining the second part relative to the first part and obtaining a final mounted position of the device,
  • securing a tablet to the second part of the fixing device.

L'association forme saillante et rainure en deux zones des première et deuxième parties permet un maintien initial des première et deuxième parties qui aide à la finalisation du montage avec des moyens de fixation en gardant en position les première et deuxième parties l'une par rapport à l'autre.The combination of protruding shape and groove in two zones of the first and second parts allows initial retention of the first and second parts which helps to finalize the assembly with fixing means by keeping the first and second parts in position relative to each other. to the other.

Description détaillée de l'inventionDetailed description of the invention

Aux figures, pour chaque jeu de rainures, une seule rainure est référencée 4 et aux figures 5 à 7, pour raison de clarté des figures pour la visibilité de la rainure référencée, cette rainure référencée 4 n'est pas celle dans laquelle la forme saillante 5 est insérée. Ce qui est énoncé pour une rainure référencée 4 est valable pour toutes les rainures.In the figures, for each set of grooves, a single groove is referenced 4 and in the figures 5 to 7 , for reasons of clarity of the figures for the visibility of the referenced groove, this groove referenced 4 is not the one in which the projecting shape 5 is inserted. What is stated for a groove referenced 4 is valid for all grooves.

Dans ce qui va suivre, il est fait référence à toutes les figures prises en combinaison. Quand il est fait référence à une ou des figures spécifiques, ces figures sont à prendre en combinaison avec les autres figures pour la reconnaissance des références numériques désignées.In what follows, reference is made to all the figures taken in combination. When reference is made to one or more specific figures, these figures must be taken in combination with the other figures for the recognition of the designated numerical references.

En se référant aux figures 1 à 13, la présente invention concerne un dispositif 10 de fixation d'une étagère 20 contre un support, l'étagère 20 étant seulement montrée aux figures 9, 10, 12 et 13.Referring to the figures 1 to 13 , the present invention relates to a device 10 for fixing a shelf 20 against a support, the shelf 20 being only shown in the figures 9, 10 , 12 and 13 .

Le dispositif 10 comprend une première partie 1 et une deuxième partie 2 toutes deux de forme allongée, pouvant être sous forme de profilés plans, sensiblement de même longueur. La première partie 1 est destinée à être mise en appui contre le support, le plus fréquemment un mur sensiblement vertical ou équipement équivalent.The device 10 comprises a first part 1 and a second part 2, both of elongated shape, which may be in the form of planar profiles, substantially of the same length. The first part 1 is intended to be placed against the support, most frequently a substantially vertical wall or equivalent equipment.

La deuxième partie 2 se fixe de manière amovible contre la première partie 1 par au moins un moyen de fixation traversant les première et deuxième parties 1, 2 en position montée du dispositif 10, aux figures trois moyens de fixation répartis symétriquement sur les première et deuxième parties 1, 2, vers les deux extrémités longitudinales et le milieu longitudinal de chacune des première et deuxième parties 1, 2.The second part 2 is removably fixed against the first part 1 by at least one fixing means passing through the first and second parts 1, 2 in the mounted position of the device 10, in the figures three fixing means distributed symmetrically on the first and second parts 1, 2, towards the two longitudinal ends and the longitudinal middle of each of the first and second parts 1, 2.

Selon l'invention, en se référant principalement aux figures 2A, 2B, 5 à 7, et 8A à 8D des faces en vis-à-vis des première et/ou deuxième parties 1, 2 portent un jeu d'au moins deux rainures 4 parallèles et longitudinales. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2A, les faces en vis-à-vis des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 portent chacune un jeu d'au moins deux rainures 4 parallèles et longitudinales. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2B, seule la face en vis-à-vis de la première partie 1 porte un jeu d'au moins deux rainures 4 parallèles et longitudinales. Le nombre de rainures 4 est avantageusement mais non limitativement égal à trois dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2A. Il est avantageusement mais non limitativement égal à huit dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2B.According to the invention, referring mainly to Figures 2A, 2B , 5 to 7 , And 8A to 8D facing faces of the first and/or second parts 1, 2 carry a set of at least two parallel and longitudinal grooves 4. In the embodiment of the Figure 2A , the facing faces of the first and second parts 1, 2 each carry a set of at least two parallel and longitudinal grooves 4. In the method of carrying out the Figure 2B , only the face facing the first part 1 carries a set of at least two parallel and longitudinal grooves 4. The number of grooves 4 is advantageously but not limited to three in the embodiment of the Figure 2A . It is advantageously but not limited to equal to eight in the embodiment of the Figure 2B .

D'autre part, la première et/ou la deuxième partie 1, 2 portent au moins une forme saillante 5 longitudinale. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2A, les première et deuxième parties 1, 2 portent chacune une forme saillante 5. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2B, seule la deuxième partie 2 porte deux formes saillantes 5. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2A, la forme saillante 5 est portée à distance du jeu desdits au moins deux rainures 4 sur chacune des faces en vis-à-vis des première et deuxième parties 1, 2. Dans le mode de réalisation de la figure 2B, la hauteur du jeu de rainures 4 est supérieure à l'écart entre les deux formes saillantes 5.On the other hand, the first and/or the second part 1, 2 have at least one longitudinal projecting shape 5. In the embodiment of the Figure 2A , the first and second parts 1, 2 each have a projecting shape 5. In the embodiment of the Figure 2B , only the second part 2 carries two projecting shapes 5. In the embodiment of the Figure 2A , the projecting shape 5 is carried at a distance from the play of said at least two grooves 4 on each of the faces facing the first and second parts 1, 2. In the embodiment of the Figure 2B , the height of the set of grooves 4 is greater than the distance between the two projecting shapes 5.

En position montée du dispositif 10, dans le mode de réalisation montré aux figures 5 à 7, la forme saillante 5, avantageusement une bande avec une section pointue faisant saillie, portée par la première partie 1 s'insère dans une des rainures 4 portées par la deuxième partie 2 tandis que la forme saillante 5, toujours sous la forme préférentielle d'une bande avec une section pointue faisant saillie, portée par la deuxième partie 2 est insérée dans une des rainures 4 portées par la première partie 1. Dans le mode de réalisation montré aux figures 8A à 8D, les deux formes saillante 5, avantageusement deux bandes avec une section pointue faisant saillie, portées par la deuxième partie 2 s'insèrent dans les rainures 4 portées par la première partie 1.In the mounted position of the device 10, in the embodiment shown in figures 5 to 7 , the projecting shape 5, advantageously a strip with a protruding pointed section, carried by the first part 1, fits into one of the grooves 4 carried by the second part 2 while the projecting shape 5, still in the preferential form of a strip with a protruding pointed section, carried by the second part 2 is inserted into one of the grooves 4 carried by the first part 1. In the embodiment shown in Figures 8A to 8D , the two projecting shapes 5, advantageously two strips with a protruding pointed section, carried by the second part 2 are inserted into the grooves 4 carried by the first part 1.

Il y a ainsi une interaction et un encastrement des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 l'une dans l'autre, cet encastrement étant symétrique dans le mode de réalisation des figures 5 à 7. Dans ce mode de réalisation, chacune des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 porte le jeu d'au moins deux rainures 4 et la forme saillante 5 à distance en étant symétriquement réparties sur les première et deuxième parties 1, 2, par exemple vers les extrémités latérales des première et deuxième parties 1, 2, les rainures 4 et les formes en saillie s'étendant dans la longueur des première et deuxième parties 1, 2. Dans le mode de réalisation des figures 8A à 8D, le jeu de rainures 4 de la première partie 1 présente une hauteur supérieure à la distance entre les formes saillantes 5. Celles-ci peuvent alors, s'insérer dans différentes rainures du jeu de rainures 4, selon l'épaisseur de l'étagère 20, par exemple 3 mm à la figure 8A, 4 mm à la figure 8B, 5 mm à la figure 8C et 6 mm à la figure 8D.There is thus an interaction and an embedding of the first and second parts 1, 2 one into the other, this embedding being symmetrical in the embodiment of the figures 5 to 7 . In this embodiment, each of the first and second parts 1, 2 carries the clearance of at least two grooves 4 and the projecting shape 5 at a distance being symmetrically distributed on the first and second parts 1, 2, for example towards the lateral ends of the first and second parts 1, 2, the grooves 4 and the projecting shapes extending in the length of the first and second parts 1, 2. In the embodiment of the Figures 8A to 8D , the set of grooves 4 of the first part 1 has a height greater than the distance between the protruding shapes 5. These can then be inserted into different grooves of the set of grooves 4, depending on the thickness of the shelf 20, for example 3 mm at the Figure 8A , 4 mm to the Figure 8B , 5 mm to the Figure 8C And 6 mm to the figure 8D .

Dans le mode de réalisation des figure 5 à 7, chaque rainure 4 du jeu d'au moins deux rainures 4 porté respectivement par la première partie 1 ou la deuxième partie 2 présente une dimension juste suffisante pour recevoir et maintenir la forme saillante 5 portée respectivement par la deuxième partie 2 ou la première partie 1. Dans le mode de réalisation des figures 8A à 8D, chaque rainure 4 du jeu d'au moins six rainures 4 porté par la première partie 1 présente une dimension juste suffisante pour recevoir et maintenir une des deux formes saillante 5 portées par la deuxième partie 2. Dans ces deux modes de réalisation, il peut exister un effet d'encliquetage entre les formes saillantes 5 et les rainures 4 correspondantes.In the embodiment of figure 5 to 7 , each groove 4 of the set of at least two grooves 4 carried respectively by the first part 1 or the second part 2 has a dimension just sufficient to receive and maintain the projecting shape 5 carried respectively by the second part 2 or the first part 1 . In the embodiment of the Figures 8A to 8D , each groove 4 of the set of at least six grooves 4 carried by the first part 1 has a dimension just sufficient to receive and maintain one of the two projecting shapes 5 carried by the second part 2. In these two embodiments, it can exist a snap-locking effect between the projecting shapes 5 and the corresponding grooves 4.

Comme il est particulièrement bien visible aux figures 3A et 3B, les rainures 4 d'un jeu s'étendent parallèlement les unes aux autres.As it is particularly clearly visible in Figures 3A and 3B , the grooves 4 of a set extend parallel to each other.

Comme il est visible aux figures 5 à 7 et aux figures 8A à 8D, les rainures 4 de chaque jeu peuvent être en dents de scie et la forme saillante 5 peut présenter une section triangulaire avec un sommet pointant vers l'extérieur. Il est possible aussi que le profil des rainures 4 soit différent en étant par exemple penché vers le bas quand le dispositif de fixation 1 est monté sur un support vertical.As it is visible in figures 5 to 7 and to Figures 8A to 8D , the grooves 4 of each set can be sawtoothed and the projecting shape 5 can have a triangular section with a vertex pointing outwards. It is also possible that the profile of the grooves 4 is different, for example being tilted downwards when the fixing device 1 is mounted on a vertical support.

Une profondeur de chaque rainure 4 peut varier du tiers à la moitié de l'épaisseur de la première partie 1 du dispositif 10, afin qu'il y ait un accrochage suffisant d'une forme saillante 5 dans sa rainure 4 associée.A depth of each groove 4 can vary from a third to half the thickness of the first part 1 of the device 10, so that there is sufficient attachment of a projecting shape 5 in its associated groove 4.

En se référant notamment aux figures 2A, 2B, 5 à 7 et 8A à 8D, en ce qui concerne la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10, cette deuxième partie 2 peut être sous forme d'une équerre 6, 7. Une première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 peut s'étendre perpendiculairement à la première partie 1. Une deuxième branche 7 de l'équerre 6, 7 peut s'étendre dans un plan parallèle au plan contenant au moins une majeure partie de la première partie 1.With particular reference to the Figures 2A, 2B , 5 to 7 And 8A to 8D , with regard to the second part 2 of the device 10, this second part 2 can be in the form of a bracket 6, 7. A first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 can extend perpendicular to the first part 1 A second branch 7 of the bracket 6, 7 can extend in a plane parallel to the plane containing at least a major part of the first part 1.

La deuxième branche 7 de l'équerre 6, 7 peut porter la face de la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10 comportant un jeu de rainures 4 et une forme saillante 5 ou, dans les deux formes saillantes 5. Dans ce cas, une profondeur de chaque rainure 4 peut varier du tiers à la moitié d'une épaisseur de la deuxième branche 7.The second branch 7 of the bracket 6, 7 can carry the face of the second part 2 of the device 10 comprising a set of grooves 4 and a projecting shape 5 or, in the two projecting shapes 5. In this case, a depth of each groove 4 can vary from a third to a half of a thickness of the second branch 7.

Les rainures 4 des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 et les formes en saillie des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 peuvent être équivalentes pour garantir une symétrie parfaite de l'accrochage de la deuxième partie 2 sur la première partie 1 du dispositif 10.The grooves 4 of the first and second parts 1, 2 and the projecting shapes of the first and second parts 1, 2 can be equivalent to guarantee perfect symmetry of the attachment of the second part 2 to the first part 1 of the device 10.

Comme visible notamment aux figures 1A, 1B, 3A, 3B et 9, la deuxième branche 7 de l'équerre 6, 7 peut être traversée par au moins un évidement 8 de passage dudit au moins un moyen de fixation de type vis, aux figures 1A, 1B et 9 trois évidements 8 de passage.As visible in particular to figures 1A, 1B , 3A, 3B And 9 , the second branch 7 of the bracket 6, 7 can be crossed by at least one recess 8 for passage of said at least one screw type fixing means, at figures 1A, 1B And 9 three passage recesses 8.

Comme particulièrement bien visible à la figure 3, l'évidement 8 ou les évidements 8 peuvent porter un lamage 9 de réception d'une tête de vis ou organe similaire sur une face de la deuxième branche 7 opposée à la première partie 1. La tête de vis est alors entièrement logée dans le lamage 9 de la deuxième branche 7, avantageusement conique ou cylindrique.As particularly clearly visible at the Figure 3 , the recess 8 or recesses 8 can carry a countersink 9 for receiving a screw head or similar member on one face of the second branch 7 opposite the first part 1. The screw head is then entirely housed in the countersink 9 of the second branch 7, advantageously conical or cylindrical.

Pour procurer une liberté de jeu à l'élément de fixation lors de sa fixation avec le support, la première partie 1 peut porter un trou oblong 11 de passage de l'extrémité libre de chaque élément de fixation, donc trois trous oblongs 11, chacun aligné en correspondance avec un évidement 8 présent sur la deuxième branche 7 de l'équerre 6, 7 de la deuxième partie 2.To provide freedom of play for the fixing element when it is fixed with the support, the first part 1 can carry an oblong hole 11 for passing through the free end of each fixing element, therefore three oblong holes 11, each aligned in correspondence with a recess 8 present on the second branch 7 of the bracket 6, 7 of the second part 2.

L'extrémité libre de chaque élément de fixation peut être destinée à être vissée dans le support, par exemple dans une cheville, chaque élément de fixation assurant simultanément le maintien complémentaire des première et deuxième parties 1, 2 l'une par rapport à l'autre et la fixation du dispositif 10 sur son support, avantageusement un mur vertical ou équipement équivalent.The free end of each fixing element can be intended to be screwed into the support, for example into a dowel, each fixing element simultaneously ensuring the complementary maintenance of the first and second parts 1, 2 relative to the other and the fixing of the device 10 on its support, advantageously a vertical wall or equivalent equipment.

Dans une autre alternative, l'élément de fixation peut être une pointe ou des pointes enfoncées en force dans le support, ceci à travers la première portion et la deuxième portion du dispositif de fixation.In another alternative, the fixing element can be a point or points forcefully driven into the support, this through the first portion and the second portion of the fixing device.

En se référant plus particulièrement aux figures 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 5 à 8, et 8A à 8D, la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 peut comprendre un rebord 6a s'insérant sous la première partie 1 en position montée du dispositif 10.With particular reference to the Figures 2A, 2B , 3A, 3B , 5 to 8 , And 8A to 8D , the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 may include a rim 6a inserting under the first part 1 in the mounted position of the device 10.

Le rebord 6a peut dépasser du reste de la première branche 6 d'une distance égale à l'épaisseur de la première partie 1 du dispositif 10. Les faces de la première partie 1 et du rebord 6a destinées à être en vis-à-vis du support peuvent être dans un prolongement l'une de l'autre en étant alignées pour être appliquées dans leur totalité contre le support, avantageusement un mur vertical ou équipement équivalent.The rim 6a can protrude from the rest of the first branch 6 by a distance equal to the thickness of the first part 1 of the device 10. The faces of the first part 1 and of the rim 6a intended to be opposite each other of the support can be in an extension of one another while being aligned to be applied in their entirety against the support, advantageously a vertical wall or equivalent equipment.

Une face du rebord 6a opposée à la deuxième branche 7 peut être incurvée en étant de forme concave et un bord 6b de la première branche 6 opposée à la deuxième branche 7 et à la première partie 1 peut être arrondi.One face of the rim 6a opposite the second branch 7 can be curved by being concave in shape and an edge 6b of the first branch 6 opposite the second branch 7 and the first part 1 can be rounded.

Le bord arrondi 6b est le bord le plus en avant du dispositif 10 de fixation et de l'étagère 20 elle-même une fois complètement montée et il est avantageux que ce bord 6b soit arrondi pour éviter de blesser, plus probablement à la tête, une personne se trouvant dans son environnement.The rounded edge 6b is the most forward edge of the fixing device 10 and of the shelf 20 itself once completely assembled and it is advantageous that this edge 6b is rounded to avoid injury, most probably to the head, a person in their environment.

Aux figures 5 à 7, ainsi qu'aux figures 8A à 8D, un espacement plus ou moins grand peut être créé entre la portion inférieure de la première partie 1 et le rebord 6a de la première branche 6 de la deuxième partie 2 selon la rainure 4 sélectionnée pour une forme saillante 5.To figures 5 to 7 , as well as Figures 8A to 8D , a greater or lesser spacing can be created between the portion lower part of the first part 1 and the edge 6a of the first branch 6 of the second part 2 according to the groove 4 selected for a projecting shape 5.

En se référant à toutes les figures, la première partie 1 peut porter une portion d'extrémité supérieure 1a recourbée coiffant la deuxième partie 2. La première partie 1 est avantageusement sous la forme d'un profilé en tant que barre avec une portion 1a recourbée de 90° par rapport au reste de la barre.Referring to all the figures, the first part 1 can carry a curved upper end portion 1a covering the second part 2. The first part 1 is advantageously in the form of a profile as a bar with a curved portion 1a 90° relative to the rest of the bar.

Sans que cela soit limitatif, la portion d'extrémité recourbée 1a destinée à devenir la portion d'extrémité supérieure du dispositif de fixation 10 en position montée de ce dispositif, peut être égale entre le tiers et la moitié du reste de la première partie 1.Without this being limiting, the curved end portion 1a intended to become the upper end portion of the fixing device 10 in the mounted position of this device, can be equal to between a third and a half of the rest of the first part 1 .

En se référant aux figures 9, 10, 12 et 13, l'invention concerne aussi une étagère 20 comprenant un dispositif 10 de fixation tel que décrit précédemment.Referring to the figures 9, 10 , 12 and 13 , the invention also relates to a shelf 20 comprising a fixing device 10 as described above.

L'étagère 20 comprend une tablette 12 solidarisée avec la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10 par des moyens de solidarisation amovible, ceci notamment par la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 de la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10 de fixation. La tablette 12 est une tablette rigide qui peut être formée de bois, de verre, de métal ou d'un mélange de ces matériaux.The shelf 20 comprises a shelf 12 secured to the second part 2 of the device 10 by removable securing means, in particular by the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 of the second part 2 of the fixing device 10. The shelf 12 is a rigid shelf which may be formed of wood, glass, metal or a mixture of these materials.

Lorsque la tablette est une tablette de verre notamment, des profilés plastiques 14, 15 sont avantageusement ajoutés. Ces profilés 14, 15 sont montrés aux figure 11 et 12. Le profilé 14 est intégré dans la branche supérieure de la première partie 1. Le profilé 15 est intégré dans la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 formant la deuxième partie 2.When the shelf is a glass shelf in particular, plastic profiles 14, 15 are advantageously added. These profiles 14, 15 are shown in figures 11 and 12 . The profile 14 is integrated into the upper branch of the first part 1. The profile 15 is integrated into the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 forming the second part 2.

Il peut être prévu un ou deux orifices 13 de passage de moyens de solidarisation tels que des vis à travers la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 du dispositif 10 de fixation pour la solidarisation de la tablette 12 de l'étagère avec le dispositif 10 de fixation.One or two orifices 13 may be provided for the passage of securing means such as screws through the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 of the fixing device 10 for securing the shelf 12 of the shelf with the fixing device 10.

C'est toute une face relativement plane de la première partie 1 qui est appliquée contre le support, ce qui permet de plaquer le dispositif 10 de fixation contre son support.It is an entire relatively flat face of the first part 1 which is applied against the support, which makes it possible to press the fixing device 10 against its support.

Le rebord 6a de la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 de la deuxième partie 2 concourt à limiter le fléchissement de la première branche 6 sous le poids des objets portés par l'étagère 20.The rim 6a of the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 of the second part 2 helps to limit the bending of the first branch 6 under the weight of the objects carried by the shelf 20.

La portion d'extrémité supérieure recourbée 1a de la première partie 1 coiffant la deuxième partie 2 permet de limiter et de maintenir les objets portés sur la tablette 12 de l'étagère 20. Cette portion d'extrémité supérieure recourbée 1a peut surplomber au moins partiellement la tablette 12 de l'étagère 20.The curved upper end portion 1a of the first part 1 covering the second part 2 makes it possible to limit and maintain the objects carried on the shelf 12 of the shelf 20. This curved upper end portion 1a can at least partially overhang shelf 12 of shelf 20.

L'invention concerne enfin un procédé de montage d'une telle étagère 20 contre un support. Le procédé de montage comprend une première étape d'application de la première partie 1 du dispositif 10 contre le support.The invention finally relates to a method of mounting such a shelf 20 against a support. The assembly method comprises a first step of applying the first part 1 of the device 10 against the support.

Le procédé comprend une deuxième étape de rapprochement de la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10 de la première partie 1. Ce rapprochement peut se faire par poussée de la deuxième partie 2 vers la première partie 1 ou par coulissement de la deuxième partie 2 par rapport à la première partie 1.The method comprises a second step of bringing the second part 2 of the device 10 closer to the first part 1. This rapprochement can be done by pushing the second part 2 towards the first part 1 or by sliding the second part 2 relative to the first part 1.

Lors d'une troisième étape, au moins un moyen de fixation traverse la deuxième partie 2 en pointant vers la première partie 1 et pénètre dans la première partie 1 en fin de rapprochement.During a third step, at least one fixing means passes through the second part 2 pointing towards the first part 1 and penetrates into the first part 1 at the end of the rapprochement.

La quatrième étape est le début ou l'initiation d'une fixation au moins préalable du ou des moyens de fixation avec le support. Cette fixation au moins préalable est juste suffisante pour maintenir la première partie 1 par rapport au support et la deuxième partie 2 en vis-à-vis de la première partie 1.The fourth step is the beginning or initiation of at least prior fixing of the fixing means(s) with the support. This at least prior fixing is just sufficient to maintain the first part 1 in relation to the support and the second part 2 in relation to the first part 1.

Cette fixation au moins préalable est incomplète étant donné que la deuxième partie 2 n'est pas encore maintenue contre la première partie 1 et que le dispositif 10 n'est pas encore fixé contre le support.This at least prior fixing is incomplete given that the second part 2 is not yet held against the first part 1 and that the device 10 is not yet fixed against the support.

La cinquième étape est l'application de la deuxième partie 2 sur la première partie 1 avec insertion des formes saillantes 5 portées, dans un mode de réalisation, respectivement par les première et deuxième parties 1, 2 dans une rainure 4 du jeu de rainures 4 porté respectivement par les deuxième et première parties 1, 2, et portée, dans un autre mode de réalisation, par la deuxième partie 2 dans une rainure du jeu de rainures 4 porté par la première partie 1.The fifth step is the application of the second part 2 to the first part 1 with insertion of the protruding shapes 5 carried, in one embodiment, respectively by the first and second parts 1, 2 in a groove 4 of the set of grooves 4 carried respectively by the second and first parts 1, 2, and carried, in another embodiment, by the second part 2 in a groove of the set of grooves 4 carried by the first part 1.

Un maintien provisoire mais relativement rigide en position montée du dispositif 10 est ainsi procuré. Ce maintien ne peut être rompu que par retrait de la deuxième partie 2 de la première partie 1 du dispositif 10 de fixation.Temporary but relatively rigid support in the mounted position of the device 10 is thus provided. This hold can only be broken by removing the second part 2 from the first part 1 of the fixing device 10.

La sixième étape est la fixation complète dudit au moins un moyen de fixation avec le support avec maintien de la deuxième partie 2 par rapport à la première partie 1 et obtention d'une position montée finale du dispositif 10.The sixth step is the complete fixing of said at least one fixing means with the support with maintaining the second part 2 relative to the first part 1 and obtaining a final mounted position of the device 10.

La septième et dernière étape est la solidarisation d'une tablette 12 sur la deuxième partie 2 du dispositif 10 de fixation, de préférence sur la première branche 6 de l'équerre 6, 7 formant la deuxième partie 2.The seventh and final step is the securing of a shelf 12 on the second part 2 of the fixing device 10, preferably on the first branch 6 of the bracket 6, 7 forming the second part 2.

L'étagère 20 est alors complète et fixée contre le support, avantageusement contre un mur vertical ou un équipement équivalent.The shelf 20 is then complete and fixed against the support, advantageously against a vertical wall or equivalent equipment.

L'invention n'est nullement limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits et illustrés qui n'ont été donnés qu'à titre d'exemples. Notamment, les deux formes saillantes ou dents peuvent être disposées sur le même profil ou non, et si elles sont disposées sur le même profil, elles peuvent être disposées soient sur la première partie 1 soit sur la seconde partie 2. Si elles sont disposées sur la première partie 1, alors le jeu de rainures 4 est disposé sur la deuxième partie 2 et, inversement, si elles sont disposées sur la deuxième partie 2, alors le jeu de rainures est disposé sur la première partie 1.The invention is in no way limited to the embodiments described and illustrated which have been given only by way of examples. In particular, the two protruding shapes or teeth can be arranged on the same profile or not, and if they are arranged on the same profile, they can be arranged either on the first part 1 or on the second part 2. If they are arranged on the first part 1, then the set of grooves 4 is arranged on the second part 2 and, conversely, if they are arranged on the second part 2, then the set of grooves is arranged on the first part 1.
