Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif amélioré de rangement et installation d'accessoires pour câbles électriques.The present invention relates to an improved device for storing and installing accessories for electrical cables.

L'invention appartient au domaine des emballages pour accessoires de câbles électriques. Elle trouve à s'appliquer en particulier dans le domaine des emballages pour accessoires de câbles électriques à moyenne tension destinés à la connexion dans les réseaux électriques, ces accessoires étant par exemple destinés à être installés aux extrémités d'un câble pour la connexion de ce dernier.The invention belongs to the field of packaging for electrical cable accessories. It is particularly applicable in the field of packaging for medium voltage electrical cable accessories intended for connection in electrical networks, these accessories being for example intended to be installed at the ends of a cable for the connection of this last.

Dans le domaine des câbles électriques ainsi que dans de nombreux autres domaines, tels que celui des objets vendus en kit ou des jeux de construction, la majorité des solutions actuelles d'emballage proposent un ou plusieurs cartons à l'intérieur desquels on trouve de multiples sachets en matière plastique contenant les diverses pièces à utiliser.In the field of electrical cables as well as in many other fields, such as that of objects sold in kits or construction games, the majority of current packaging solutions offer one or more boxes inside which we find multiple plastic bags containing the various parts to be used.

Ce type d'emballage de l'art antérieur, qui comporte une quantité significative de plastique à usage unique, ne répond pas aux exigences actuelles de préservation de l'environnement.This type of prior art packaging, which contains a significant quantity of single-use plastic, does not meet current environmental preservation requirements.

En outre, à l'ouverture du carton d'emballage, l'utilisateur est confronté à une multitude de pièces disposées sans agencement particulier, autrement dit en vrac. Cela ne lui est d'aucune aide pour savoir dans quel ordre utiliser les éléments contenus dans le carton. Il est généralement contraint de se reporter à la notice de montage, si elle existe. Ainsi, cela peut non seulement ralentir l'assemblage de ces éléments, mais également conduire à des erreurs de montage.Furthermore, when opening the packaging box, the user is confronted with a multitude of parts arranged in no particular arrangement, in other words in bulk. This is of no help to him in knowing in what order to use the elements contained in the box. It is generally necessary to refer to the assembly instructions, if they exist. So, this can not only slow down the assembly of these elements, but also lead to assembly errors.

La présente invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients précités de l'art antérieur.The present invention aims to remedy the aforementioned drawbacks of the prior art.

Dans ce but, la présente invention propose un dispositif de rangement et installation d'accessoires pour câbles électriques, comportant un conteneur extérieur en carton et une pluralité d'accessoires pour câbles électriques, remarquable en ce qu'il comporte en outre un empilement d'au moins deux plateaux en carton disposés de façon amovible dans le conteneur, la pluralité d'accessoires étant rangée sur les plateaux, les plateaux étant empilés dans un ordre correspondant à l'ordre dans lequel les accessoires de la pluralité d'accessoires sont à utiliser pour l'installation des accessoires.For this purpose, the present invention proposes a device for storing and installing accessories for electrical cables, comprising a container exterior made of cardboard and a plurality of accessories for electrical cables, remarkable in that it further comprises a stack of at least two cardboard trays arranged removably in the container, the plurality of accessories being stored on the trays , the trays being stacked in an order corresponding to the order in which the accessories of the plurality of accessories are to be used for installing the accessories.

Ainsi, non seulement l'invention permet de réduire de façon très significative la quantité de plastique utilisée pour l'emballage des divers accessoires, mais elle permet en outre une installation plus facile et plus rapide de ces accessoires, avec un risque d'erreur minimal, étant donné que l'ordre dans lequel sont disposés les plateaux superposés correspond à l'ordre des étapes d'installation et que les divers accessoires sont rangés, c'est-à-dire présentés de façon claire et ordonnée, sur chacun des plateaux.Thus, not only does the invention make it possible to very significantly reduce the quantity of plastic used for the packaging of the various accessories, but it also allows easier and faster installation of these accessories, with a minimal risk of error. , given that the order in which the superimposed trays are arranged corresponds to the order of the installation steps and that the various accessories are stored, that is to say presented in a clear and orderly manner, on each of the trays .

Par ailleurs, l'utilisateur est en mesure de déterminer immédiatement, à l'examen de chaque plateau, si un des accessoires est manquant, vu que l'emplacement dédié à cet accessoire est vide.Furthermore, the user is able to immediately determine, by examining each tray, if one of the accessories is missing, given that the location dedicated to this accessory is empty.

Ce dispositif présente en outre l'avantage d'engendrer moins de rebuts que les emballages de l'art antérieur une fois l'installation achevée.This device also has the advantage of generating less waste than prior art packaging once installation is completed.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, le conteneur contient en outre une notice décrivant les étapes successives d'installation et chacun des plateaux comporte une indication numérique associée à chacun des accessoires, l'ensemble de ces indications numériques constituant une numérotation correspondant à celle des étapes successives d'installation décrites dans la notice.In a particular embodiment, the container also contains instructions describing the successive stages of installation and each of the trays includes a numerical indication associated with each of the accessories, all of these numerical indications constituting a numbering corresponding to that of the stages successive installation procedures described in the instructions.

Ces indications numériques, qui établissent une correspondance directe entre les accessoires et leur montage, rendent l'installation des accessoires plus rapide et plus facile pour l'utilisateur.These digital indications, which establish a direct correspondence between the accessories and their mounting, make the installation of the accessories faster and easier for the user.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, au moins un des plateaux comporte au moins un rebord.In a particular embodiment, at least one of the trays includes at least one rim.

Cela permet de garantir le bon empilement des plateaux et de réduire le risque d'écrasement des accessoires d'un plateau par le ou les plateaux qui sont empilés au-dessus. En outre, l'utilisateur peut utiliser le rebord pour entreposer des éléments sur un plateau pendant l'installation ou une fois celle-ci terminée.This ensures that the trays are stacked correctly and reduces the risk of the accessories on a tray being crushed by the tray(s) which are stacked above. Additionally, the user can use the ledge to store items on a tray during or after installation.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, au moins un des plateaux comporte au moins une languette de préhension.In a particular embodiment, at least one of the trays includes at least one gripping tab.

Cela facilite l'extraction des plateaux hors du conteneur.This makes it easier to remove the trays from the container.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, au moins un des plateaux comporte un embossage prédéterminé adapté à maintenir en place au moins un des accessoires.In a particular embodiment, at least one of the trays has a predetermined embossing adapted to hold at least one of the accessories in place.

En variante, au moins un des plateaux comporte au moins un adhésif amovible adapté à maintenir en place au moins un des accessoires.Alternatively, at least one of the trays comprises at least one removable adhesive adapted to hold at least one of the accessories in place.

Dans encore une autre variante, au moins un des plateaux comporte au moins une ouverture adaptée à maintenir en place au moins un des accessoires.In yet another variant, at least one of the trays comprises at least one opening adapted to hold at least one of the accessories in place.

Ces trois configurations permettent d'éviter le déplacement voire la chute d'un accessoire à l'ouverture du conteneur et/ou lors de la manipulation des plateaux.These three configurations make it possible to prevent an accessory from moving or even falling when opening the container and/or when handling the trays.

Description de mode(s) de réalisationDescription of embodiment(s)

Comme le montre la figure 1, dans un mode particulier de réalisation, un dispositif 10 conforme à la présente invention, de rangement et installation d'accessoires pour câbles électriques, comporte un conteneur 12 extérieur en carton et divers accessoires 14 pour câbles électriques.As shown in the figure 1 , in a particular embodiment, a device 10 according to the present invention, for storing and installing accessories for electric cables, comprises an exterior cardboard container 12 and various accessories 14 for electric cables.

Le conteneur 12 peut par exemple être une boîte en carton s'ouvrant par le dessus au moyen de rabats 13, comme dans le mode particulier de réalisation illustré. Le conteneur 12 est par exemple, mais non nécessairement, de forme parallélépipédique.The container 12 can for example be a cardboard box opening from above by means of flaps 13, as in the particular embodiment illustrated. The container 12 is for example, but not necessarily, of parallelepiped shape.

Conformément à la présente invention, le dispositif 10 comporte en outre un empilement d'au moins deux plateaux 16 en carton, disposés de façon amovible dans le conteneur 12. Les accessoires 14 sont rangés sur chacun des plateaux 16 et les plateaux 16 sont empilés dans un ordre correspondant à l'ordre dans lequel les accessoires 14 sont à utiliser pour leur installation.In accordance with the present invention, the device 10 further comprises a stack of at least two cardboard trays 16, arranged removably in the container 12. The accessories 14 are stored on each of the trays 16 and the trays 16 are stacked in an order corresponding to the order in which the accessories 14 are to be used for their installation.

Ainsi, les accessoires 14 à utiliser en premier sont rangés sur le plateau 16 supérieur, qui est immédiatement accessible à l'ouverture du conteneur 12 et les accessoires 14 à utiliser en dernier sont rangés sur le plateau 16 inférieur, qui est disposé au fond du conteneur 12, tandis que les accessoires 14 à utiliser lors des éventuelles étapes intermédiaires d'installation sont rangés sur le ou les éventuels plateaux 16 intermédiaires empilés suivant l'ordre de ces étapes intermédiaires, entre le plateau supérieur et le plateau inférieur.Thus, the accessories 14 to be used first are stored on the upper tray 16, which is immediately accessible upon opening the container 12 and the accessories 14 to be used last are stored on the lower tray 16, which is arranged at the bottom of the container 12, while the accessories 14 to be used during any intermediate installation steps are stored on the possible intermediate tray(s) 16 stacked according to the order of these intermediate steps, between the upper tray and the lower tray.

A titre d'exemple nullement limitatif, dans le mode particulier de réalisation illustré, le dispositif 10 comporte trois plateaux 16 superposés. Ainsi, par exemple, sur le plateau supérieur peuvent être rangées les pièces à utiliser pour préparer un câble électrique, sur le plateau du milieu peuvent être rangées les pièces d'une jonction et sur le plateau inférieur peuvent être rangées les pièces à utiliser pour réaliser la connexion du câble.By way of non-limiting example, in the particular embodiment illustrated, the device 10 comprises three plates 16 superimposed. So, for example, on the upper shelf the parts to be used to prepare an electrical cable can be stored, on the middle shelf the parts for a junction can be stored and on the lower shelf the parts to be used to make cable connection.

Chacun des plateaux 16 peut être de forme rectangulaire, en particulier lorsque le conteneur 12 est de forme parallélépipédique et peut être une simple plaque en carton, ou peut présenter un ou plusieurs rebords (non illustrés) sur un ou plusieurs de ses côtés, respectivement, qui permettront de garantir le bon empilement des plateaux 16 et de réduire le risque d'écrasement des accessoires 14 d'un plateau 16 par le ou les plateaux 16 qui sont empilés au-dessus.Each of the trays 16 can be rectangular in shape, in particular when the container 12 is of parallelepiped shape and can be a simple cardboard plate, or can have one or more edges (not shown) on one or more of its sides, respectively, which will ensure the proper stacking of the trays 16 and reduce the risk of crushing the accessories 14 of a tray 16 by the tray(s) 16 which are stacked above.

De façon optionnelle, au moins certains des plateaux 16 peuvent être équipés d'une ou plusieurs languettes, disposées par exemple sur au moins deux côtés opposés, afin de faciliter pour l'utilisateur la préhension des plateaux 16 dans le conteneur 12 et leur extraction hors de celui-ci.Optionally, at least some of the trays 16 can be equipped with one or more tabs, arranged for example on at least two sides opposite, in order to facilitate for the user the gripping of the trays 16 in the container 12 and their extraction from it.

En variante, les languettes de préhension peuvent être remplacées ou complétées par des encoches pratiquées sur un ou plusieurs bords des plateaux, ces encoches ayant par exemple une longueur correspondant à la largeur d'un doigt ou d'une main.Alternatively, the gripping tabs can be replaced or supplemented by notches made on one or more edges of the plates, these notches having for example a length corresponding to the width of a finger or a hand.

De façon optionnelle, le conteneur 12 peut contenir en outre une notice décrivant les étapes successives d'installation des accessoires 14.Optionally, the container 12 can also contain instructions describing the successive stages of installation of the accessories 14.

Comme le montre la figure 2, dans un tel mode de réalisation, chacun des plateaux peut comporter une indication numérique associée à chacun des accessoires 14 et située à proximité immédiate de ces accessoires (cf. les chiffres 1 à 5 figurant à côté des accessoires 14 dans l'exemple non limitatif illustré). L'ensemble de ces indications numériques constitue une numérotation séquentielle correspondant à la numérotation des étapes successives d'installation décrites dans la notice (non illustrée).As shown in the figure 2 , in such an embodiment, each of the trays may include a digital indication associated with each of the accessories 14 and located in the immediate vicinity of these accessories (see the numbers 1 to 5 appearing next to the accessories 14 in the non-limiting example illustrated). All of these numerical indications constitute a sequential numbering corresponding to the numbering of the successive installation steps described in the instructions (not illustrated).

Les indications numériques peuvent par exemple être portées sur des étiquettes adhésives ayant toute forme jugée appropriée, apposées sur chacun des plateaux 16, ou peuvent être directement inscrites ou imprimées ou portées par tout autre moyen sur les plateaux 16.The digital indications can for example be carried on adhesive labels having any shape deemed appropriate, affixed to each of the trays 16, or can be directly inscribed or printed or carried by any other means on the trays 16.

Chaque accessoire 14 peut être maintenu en place sur son plateau 16 respectif de plusieurs façons possibles.Each accessory 14 can be held in place on its respective plate 16 in several possible ways.

Par exemple, il peut être retenu par au moins un élément adhésif amovible (par exemple sous forme de ruban) ou par de la colle amovible, cet élément adhésif ou cette colle étant disposé sur le plateau 16.For example, it can be retained by at least one removable adhesive element (for example in the form of a ribbon) or by removable glue, this adhesive element or this glue being placed on the plate 16.

En variante, le plateau 16 peut comporter au moins un embossage prédéterminé adapté à maintenir en place au moins un accessoire 14.
