Description
1.1.
DESCRIPTIONDESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne l'équipement des perceuses d'un dispositif leur The present invention relates to the equipment of drills of a device their
permettant d'être utilisées indistinctement par des droitiers et par des gauchers. allowing to be used indistinctly by right-handers and by left-handers.
Traditionnellement les perceuses sur le marché sont prévues et équipées de manière à être utilisées principalement par les droitiers. Ainsi le bouton de blocage destiné à maintenir les perceuses en marche se situe toujours sur le côté gauche de la carcasse de la poignée. La perceuse est actionnée en exerçant une légère pression avec l'index de la main droite sur la gâchette de l'interrupteur et en appuyant avec le pouce de la main droite sur le bouton de blocage. Le bouton de blocage Traditionally the drills on the market are designed and equipped to be used mainly by right-handers. Thus the blocking button intended to keep the drills running is always located on the left side of the handle carcass. The drill is operated by pressing lightly with the index finger of the right hand on the switch trigger and pressing the locking button with the thumb of the right hand. The lock button
enfoncé permet de faire tourner la perceuse en marche continue. pressed to rotate the drill continuously.
Le dispositif de l'invention remédie à cet inconvénient et permet à des gauchers de travailler avec la même aisance que les droitiers grâce au dispositif permettant The device of the invention overcomes this drawback and allows left-handers to work with the same ease as right-handers thanks to the device allowing
d'actionner la perceuse à l'aide de la main gauche. operate the drill with the left hand.
Cette amélioration d'utilisation est obtenue en pouvant déplacer le bouton de blocage, This improvement in use is obtained by being able to move the blocking button,
en fonction de l'utilisateur, du côté gauche vers le côté droit de la poignée. depending on the user, from the left side to the right side of the handle.
Pour réaliser cette opération il y a lieu d'effectuer un taraudage sur la partie droite To perform this operation, you must perform a tapping on the right side
et gauche du carter.and left of the housing.
Ceux-ci sont réalisés au même emplacement et à la même hauteur que l'orifice These are made at the same location and at the same height as the orifice
ayant reçu anciennement le bouton de blocage sur le côté gauche de la poignée. having previously received the locking button on the left side of the handle.
Pour un carter vide, ces deux orifices seront l'un face à l'autre et traverseront le For an empty casing, these two orifices will face one another and cross the
carter de part et d'autre.casing on both sides.
Un bouton de blocage adaptable aux deux côtés de la poignée complétera ce dispositif A locking button adaptable to both sides of the handle will complete this device.
et un bouchon fileté sera vissé sur l'orifice du carter non utilisé. and a threaded plug will be screwed onto the unused housing opening.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l'invention. The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention.
- La figure 1 illustre l'aspect extérieur des perceuses actuellement sur le marché - Figure 1 illustrates the external appearance of the drills currently on the market
comportant un bouton de blocage sur le côté gauche de la poignée. with a locking button on the left side of the handle.
- La figure 2 représente le côté extérieur droit du matériel existant. - Figure 2 shows the outside right side of existing equipment.
- La figure 3 représente l'utilisation de la perceuse par un droitier en se servant de l'index de la main droite pour actionner la gâchette de l'interrupteur et le pouce de la même - Figure 3 shows the use of the drill by a right-hander using the index finger of the right hand to actuate the trigger of the switch and the thumb of the same
main pour enfoncer le bouton de blocage. hand to push in the lock button.
- La figure 4 illustre le taraudage effectué à l'ancien emplacement du bouton de blocage. - Figure 4 illustrates the tapping performed at the old location of the locking button.
- La figure 5 montre l'emplacement du taraudage sur le côté droit de la poignée, lequel - Figure 5 shows the location of the thread on the right side of the handle, which
se situe dans le prolongement du taraudage opposé. is located in the extension of the opposite thread.
- La figure 6 illustre l'interrupteur de la perceuse qui comporte une fenêtre de chaque côté permettant ainsi de pouvoir permuter et fixer le bouton de blocage et le bouchon - Figure 6 illustrates the switch of the drill which has a window on each side allowing to swap and fix the locking button and the plug
fileté sur chaque côté de la poignée. threaded on each side of the handle.
2. La figure 7 représente le mécanisme du nouveau bouton de blocage qui est vissé sur 2. Figure 7 shows the mechanism of the new locking button which is screwed on
l'un ou l'autre des taraudages opérés sur la carcasse. one or the other of the threads operated on the carcass.
En référence à ces dessins et mis à part la partie voyante de la transformation opérée sur la carcasse de la perceuse, le nouveau dispositif comporte: - Un nouveau bouton de blocage dont le mécanisme ne sera plus fixé directement sur l'interrupteur mais qui sera un élément à part comportant: Un logement fileté (10) recevant le bouton de blocage, présentant à l'extrémité opposée au bouton de blocage, un trou de centrage (13) dans lequel est guidée une tige de blocage (12) solidaire du bouton de blocage (2) la dite tige de blocage étant disposée en regard d'une fenêtre (5) ménagée dans l'interrupteur (14) et d'un orifice de blocage (6) ménagé dans la tige supportant la gâchette de l'interrupteur (1). Le bouton de blocage (2) est maintenu en place et guidé par un axe (8) solidaire du logement fileté (10) et un oblong (9) permet au dit bouton de blocage d'avancer ou de reculer. Un ressort disposé entre le bouton de blocage (2) et le pourtour du trou de centrage permet d'amener le With reference to these drawings and apart from the visible part of the transformation carried out on the carcass of the drill, the new device comprises: - A new locking button whose mechanism will no longer be fixed directly on the switch but which will be a separate element comprising: A threaded housing (10) receiving the locking button, having at the end opposite the locking button, a centering hole (13) in which is guided a locking rod (12) integral with the blocking (2) said blocking rod being disposed opposite a window (5) formed in the switch (14) and a blocking orifice (6) formed in the rod supporting the trigger of the switch ( 1). The locking button (2) is held in place and guided by an axis (8) integral with the threaded housing (10) and an oblong (9) allows the said locking button to move forward or backward. A spring arranged between the locking button (2) and the periphery of the centering hole makes it possible to bring the
bouton à sa position dégagée.button in its released position.
L'inversion du bouton de blocage (2) et du bouchon fileté (3) permet d'adapter The reversal of the locking button (2) and the threaded plug (3) makes it possible to adapt
l'utilisation des perceuses à des droitiers ou à des gauchers. the use of drills for right-handers or left-handers.
- Un nouvel interrupteur (14) de mise en marche présentant une fenêtre (5) de chaque côté, à l'inverse du matériel jusqu'alors existant sur le marché qui n'avait qu'une seule - A new start switch (14) having a window (5) on each side, unlike the equipment previously available on the market which had only one
fenêtre sur le côté gauche.window on the left side.
Dès qu'une pression est exercée sur la gâchette de l'interrupteur (1), I'orifice de blocage (6) est ramené à hauteur de la fenêtre de l'interrupteur (5) permettant ainsi à la tige de blocage (12) de pénétrer dans l'orifice de blocage (6) maintenant ainsi la perceuse As soon as pressure is exerted on the switch trigger (1), the blocking orifice (6) is brought up to the level of the window of the switch (5) thus allowing the blocking rod (12) to penetrate into the blocking hole (6) thus maintaining the drill
en marche continue.continuously running.
Ayant une fenêtre de chaque côté de l'interrupteur, la tige de blocage (12) solidaire du bouton de blocage (2) pourra pénétrer dans la fenêtre (5) ménagée dans l'interrupteur Having a window on each side of the switch, the locking rod (12) integral with the locking button (2) can penetrate into the window (5) formed in the switch
(14) quel que soit le côté sur lequel le bouton de blocage a été fixé. (14) regardless of the side on which the locking button has been fixed.
