Abstract

The invention relates to an article of cutlery with an easily interchangeable handle which at the same time holds together well enough for usual handling, and which has the feature of being able to be passed through a dishwasher without damage. It consists of a handle and of an actual metal utensil, provided with a tang which can be housed in an axial housing in the handle and is characterised in that the handle 4 provided with its axial housing 7 consists of an elastic material and is moulded independently of the utensil, the transverse dimensions of the housing being very slightly smaller than the corresponding dimensions of the tang 2, whence it results, on the one hand, that the handle is dismantleable and interchangeable, and, on the other hand, that it can hold the tang quite firmly. Application: any table cutlery (knife, spoon, fork) and knives, weapons used in hand to hand fighting, and similar objects.

Description

La présente invention est du domaine de la coutellerie et elle a pour objet un manche d'article tel que couvert de table (couteau, cuillère, fourchette) et couteaux, armes blanches et objets analogues. The present invention is in the field of cutlery and it relates to an article handle such as table cover (knife, spoon, fork) and knives, knives and similar objects.

On rappelle qu'une façon ancienne et connue de mancher les couteaux consiste à loger-dans un trou axial, ou puits, du manche une partie dite soie prolongeant l'ustensile proprement dit (lame, cuilleron, fourchette) ; de façon connue le manche est en matériau dur tel que bois, corne ou matière plastique ; un matériau de scellement tel que résine, colle et ciment propre à cet usage est introduit dans le trou du manche, et la soie y est alors enfoncée en force ; après durcissement du matériau de scellement, les deux parties sont définitivement réunies l'une à l'autre. It will be recalled that an old and known way of handling knives consists of accommodating, in an axial hole, or well, of the handle, a part known as silk extending the utensil proper (blade, spoon, fork); in known manner the handle is made of hard material such as wood, horn or plastic; a sealing material such as resin, glue and cement suitable for this purpose is introduced into the hole in the handle, and the silk is then forced into it; after the sealing material has hardened, the two parts are definitively joined together.

On connaît aussi des articles de coutellerie, notamment armes blanches, dont le manche est réalisé en une matière synthétique généralement moulée autour de la soie ; dans certains cas, on a même proposé que cette matière synthétique soit une matière élastique, polyuréthane alvéolaire par exemple ; cependant comme dans le cas précédent, l'ustensile proprement dit ntest pas séparable de son manche. Knife items are also known, in particular knives, the handle of which is made of a synthetic material generally molded around silk; in some cases, it has even been proposed that this synthetic material be an elastic material, cellular polyurethane for example; however as in the previous case, the utensil itself is not separable from its handle.

Le but de la présente invention est de proposer un nouvel article de coutellerie à manche interchangeable aisément tout- en présentant une tenue suffisante à la manipulation habituelle, et la faculté de pouvoir être passé sans dommage au lave-vaisselle. The object of the present invention is to provide a new cutlery article with easily interchangeable handle while having sufficient resistance to usual handling, and the ability to be passed without damage to the dishwasher.

Selon la- présente invention, un article de coutellerie est remarquable en ce que le manche pourvu de son logement axial est constitué d'une matière élastique et est moulé indépendamment de l'ustensile, les dimensions transversales du logement étant très légèrement inférieures aux dimensions correspondantes de la soie ; il résulte de cette disposition d'une part que le manche est démontable et interchangeable, et d'autre part qu'il peut maintenir assez fermement la soie. According to the present invention, a cutlery article is remarkable in that the handle provided with its axial housing is made of an elastic material and is molded independently of the utensil, the transverse dimensions of the housing being very slightly less than the corresponding dimensions. Silk ; it results from this arrangement on the one hand that the handle is removable and interchangeable, and on the other hand that it can hold the silk fairly firmly.

Suivant une forme particulière de réalisation, la soie est aplatie, c'est-à-dire qu'elle présente une section transversale rectangulaire ; elle présente au moins un renflement ; enfin un évidement interne correspondant en position et dimension au renflement de la soie est prévu de part et d'autre du logement du manche. According to a particular embodiment, the silk is flattened, that is to say it has a rectangular cross section; it has at least one bulge; finally an internal recess corresponding in position and dimension to the bulge of the tang is provided on either side of the handle housing.

Suivant une forme encore plus particulière de réalisation, appliquable à un article du type à mitre ou à garde, la distance séparant le renflement de la soie, de la face de la mitre en regard de la soie, est légèrement inférieure à la distance séparant la tranche ou face d'extrémité du manche, dudit évidement interne. Grâce à cette disposition la partie du manche comprise entre le renflement et l'extrémité est comprimée légèrement contre la garde ou la mitre. According to an even more particular embodiment, applicable to an article of the miter or guard type, the distance separating the bulge from the silk, from the face of the miter opposite the silk, is slightly less than the distance separating the edge or end face of the handle, of said internal recess. Thanks to this arrangement the part of the handle between the bulge and the end is compressed slightly against the guard or the miter.

De préférence la dureté de la matière élastique du manche est- comprise entre 40 et 80
Shore A ; avantageusement, la matière élastique est du
E.P.D.M. Ethylène Propylène Diene Monomère.
Preferably the hardness of the elastic material of the handle is between 40 and 80
Shore A; advantageously, the elastic material is
EPDM Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer.

La présente invention sera mieux comprise, et des détails en relevant apparaStront, à la description qui va être faite d'une forme particulière de réalisation en relation avec les figures de la planche unique annexée, dans laquelle
- la fig.1 illustre un article de table conforme à l'invention constitué d'une lame de couteau et d'un manche,
- la fig.2 illustre une cuillère relevant de l'invention adaptable au manche de la fig.1, et
- la fig.3 illustre un fourchette analogue.
The present invention will be better understood, and details will be apparent from the description which will be made of a particular embodiment in relation to the figures of the single sheet appended, in which
- Fig.1 illustrates a tableware according to the invention consisting of a knife blade and a handle,
- Fig.2 illustrates a spoon of the invention adaptable to the handle of Fig.1, and
- Fig.3 illustrates a similar fork.

Sur la fig.1, un article de coutellerie est constitué d'une lame 1 et de sa soie 2 constituant l'ustensile 3 proprement dit, et d'un manche 4 la soie 2 de section rectangulaire allongée comporte un renflement 5 symétrique par rapport à l'axe de la soie (renflement résultant dans le cas présent d'un allongement de la section rectangulaire) ; on observera en outre que le renflement se raccorde à la soie, de chacun de ses côtés, suivant une courbe assez douce. La partie médiane du renflement est éloignée d'une mitre 6 en forme de garde d'une distance D1. In fig.1, a cutlery item consists of a blade 1 and its tang 2 constituting the utensil 3 proper, and of a handle 4 the tang 2 of elongated rectangular section has a bulge 5 symmetrical with respect to the axis of the silk (bulge resulting in the present case from an elongation of the rectangular section); we will further observe that the bulge is connected to the silk, on each of its sides, following a fairly gentle curve. The middle part of the bulge is distant from a miter 6 in the form of a guard by a distance D1.

Le manche, de section elliptique par exemple, comporte un logement axial 7 de section rectangulaire analogue à celle de la soie mais légèrement plus étroite (d'environ 10 % en longueur)-. Le logement -7 comporte un évidement 8 de même forme que le renflement 5 de la soie ; l'évidement est éloigné de la face 9 d'extrémité du manche d'une distance D1 légèrement inférieure à D2. The handle, of elliptical section for example, has an axial housing 7 of rectangular section similar to that of silk but slightly narrower (about 10% in length). The housing -7 has a recess 8 of the same shape as the bulge 5 of the silk; the recess is distant from the end face 9 of the handle by a distance D1 slightly less than D2.

Le manche 4 peut, par exemple, s'adapter aussi bien au couteau, qu'à la cuillère de la fig.2, qu'à la fourchette de la fig.3. Un ensemble d'ustensile (couteau, cuillère et fourchette) pourra être assorti de jeux de manches de diverses formes et diverses couleurs, donnant à l'utilisateur la possibilité de changer les manches au gré des circonstances.
Bien que l'on ait décrit et représenté une forme particulière de l'invention, il doit être compris que la portée de cette dernière n'est pas limite à cette forme mais qu'elle s'étend à tout article de coutellerie comportant les caractéristiques générales énoncées plus haut et en particulier à un manche interchangeable en matière élastique pour tous articles de coutellerie.
The handle 4 can, for example, be adapted as well to the knife, as to the spoon of fig.2, as to the fork of fig.3. A set of utensil (knife, spoon and fork) can be matched with sets of handles of various shapes and colors, giving the user the possibility of changing the handles according to circumstances.
Although a particular form of the invention has been described and represented, it should be understood that the scope of the latter is not limited to this form but that it extends to any cutlery article having the characteristics general stated above and in particular to an interchangeable handle in elastic material for all cutlery items.
