Abstract

Tablette métallique rectangulaire formée par une tôle pliée en U au moins le long de ses deux longs bords parallèles, dans laquelle le fond du U d'au moins l'un de ses bords (2, 3) comporte une concavité tournée vers l'extérieur.Rectangular metal shelf formed by a sheet bent in a U at least along its two long parallel edges, in which the bottom of the U of at least one of its edges (2, 3) has a concavity facing outwards .

Description

La présente invention concerne une étagèreThe present invention relates to a shelf

métallique réalisée à partir d'une tôle pliée.  metallic made from a folded sheet.

La réalisation d'étagères métalliques à partir de tôle pliée est très ancienne. La technique consiste essentiellement à former un retour le long de chacun des bords de l'étagère par pliage afin de former au moins le long des longs bords de celle-ci une structure en poutre creuse de section en C qui forme un raidisseur de l'étagère  The production of metal shelves from folded sheet metal is very old. The technique essentially consists in forming a return along each of the edges of the shelf by folding in order to form at least along the long edges thereof a hollow beam structure of C section which forms a stiffener of the shelf

s'opposant à sa flexion sous charge.  opposing its bending under load.

La technique est fort éprouvée et une norme définit la flèche maximale admise pour une étagère supportant une charge définie. Pour satisfaire à cette norme, il suffit de choisir une tôle d'épaisseur suffisante pour que la flèche  The technique is well proven and a standard defines the maximum deflection allowed for a shelf supporting a defined load. To meet this standard, it suffices to choose a sheet of sufficient thickness so that the arrow

soit comprise dans des limites admissibles.  is within admissible limits.

Aujourd'hui le souci constant des fabricants de ce type de mobilier est le gain de poids et la diminution du prix de revient. Le gain de poids passe par l'utilisation de tôles d'épaisseur moindre que celles communément utilisées et la diminution du prix de revient y est  Today the constant concern of the manufacturers of this type of furniture is the weight gain and the reduction of the cost price. Weight gain is achieved through the use of sheets that are thinner than those commonly used and the reduction in cost is

corrélée.correlated.

Les figures 1 et 2 illustrent schématiquement l'épreuve de charge que doit subire une étagère de mobilier  Figures 1 and 2 schematically illustrate the load test that a furniture shelf must undergo

métallique pour satisfaire aux prescriptions normatives.  metallic to meet normative requirements.

A la figure 2 qui est une coupe dans le plan P de la figure 1, on comprend que non seulement la poutre prend une flèche longitudinale, mais elle se cintre également transversalement. Le cintrage transversal conduit à une rotation des bords longitudinaux pliés de l'étagère, cette rotation ayant pour conséquence une diminution du moment d'inertie de ses bords, et donc un affaiblissement de la résistance à la flexion. Cet affaiblissement est très rapide et conduit très vite à un effondrement de la capacité de l'étagère ou de la tablette à supporter la charge. On comprend en outre que plus l'épaisseur de la tôle employée est faible et plus la flèche transversale de l'étagère est importante et donc plus la rotation est importante. En conséquence, il n'est guère possible avec ce type de construction de descendre en-dessous d'une  In Figure 2 which is a section in the plane P of Figure 1, it is understood that not only the beam takes a longitudinal deflection, but it also bends transversely. The transverse bending leads to a rotation of the folded longitudinal edges of the shelf, this rotation having the consequence of a reduction in the moment of inertia of its edges, and therefore a weakening of the resistance to bending. This weakening is very rapid and very quickly leads to a collapse of the capacity of the shelf or of the shelf to support the load. It is further understood that the smaller the thickness of the sheet used, the greater the transverse deflection of the shelf and therefore the greater the rotation. Consequently, it is hardly possible with this type of construction to descend below a

épaisseur de tôle égale à 8 ou 9 dixièmes de millimètre.  sheet thickness equal to 8 or 9 tenths of a millimeter.

Grâce à la présente invention, il est possible de diminuer sensiblement l'épaisseur usuelle d'une telle tablette (autour de 20 à 30 %) tout en conservant une rigidité de ses bords telle que l'étagère ou la tablette  Thanks to the present invention, it is possible to significantly reduce the usual thickness of such a tablet (around 20 to 30%) while retaining a rigidity of its edges such as the shelf or the tablet.

reste conforme à la norme susdite.remains in compliance with the above standard.

A cet effet, l'invention a donc pour objet une étagère ou une tablette métallique rectangulaire formée par une tôle pliée en U au moins le long de ses deux longs bords parallèles dans laquelle le fond de cette section en U d'au moins l'un de ses bords comporte une concavité tournée vers l'extérieur. Cette disposition a pour effet premier d'éviter l'affaiblissement du moment d'inertie de ce bord lorsque la tablette est soumise à une flexion transversale. L'une des conséquences de cet effet est que l'on peut à résistance égale diminuer sensiblement l'épaisseur de la tôle à partir de laquelle la tablette ou  To this end, the subject of the invention is therefore a rectangular metal shelf or shelf formed by a sheet bent in a U at least along its two long parallel edges in which the bottom of this U-shaped section of at least the one of its edges has a concavity facing outwards. This arrangement has the primary effect of avoiding the weakening of the moment of inertia of this edge when the tablet is subjected to transverse bending. One of the consequences of this effect is that, for equal resistance, the thickness of the sheet from which the tablet or

l'étagère est formée.the shelf is formed.

de l'invention ressortiront de la description donnée ci-  of the invention will emerge from the description given below

après de deux variantes de sa réalisation.  after two variants of its realization.

Il sera fait référence aux dessins annexés parmi lesquels, outre les figures 1 et 2 illustrant l'art antérieur, - la figure 3 est une vue schématique en coupe d'une tablette conforme à un premier mode de réalisation de l'invention, - la figure 4 est une même vue partielle d'une  Reference will be made to the appended drawings in which, in addition to FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrating the prior art, - FIG. 3 is a schematic sectional view of a tablet according to a first embodiment of the invention, - the Figure 4 is the same partial view of a

variante de réalisation.variant.

La tablette de la figure 3 comporte un plateau supérieur 1 et deux longs bords 2 et 3 formés en retour du plateau 1 par pliage de la tôle constitutive de cette tablette. Chacun de ses bords 2 et 3 possède d'abord une section en V à branches 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, ouvert vers l'extérieur de la tablette, les extrémités des branches étant contenues dans un plan sensiblement perpendiculaire au plateau 1 de la tablette, ce V étant ensuite prolongé sous le plateau par un retour 4, 5, sensiblement parallèle au plateau 1, lequel se termine par une petite paroi verticale 6 repliée sur elle-même pour former par exemple  The tablet of FIG. 3 comprises an upper plate 1 and two long edges 2 and 3 formed in return from the plate 1 by folding the sheet metal constituting this tablet. Each of its edges 2 and 3 first has a V-shaped section with branches 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, open towards the outside of the shelf, the ends of the branches being contained in a plane substantially perpendicular to the plate 1 of the tablet, this V then being extended under the plate by a return 4, 5, substantially parallel to the plate 1, which ends in a small vertical wall 6 folded back on itself to form for example

un rail de suspension de berceau de rangement.  a storage cradle suspension rail.

Sur cette figure on a représenté en trait mixte et de manière exagérée la forme de la section de la tablette selon l'invention lorsque celle-ci est soumise à une charge et fléchie non seulement longitudinalement mais également transversalement. On comprend que les ailes 2a et 3a de chacune des parties en V des bords 2 et 3 de la tablette tendent à tourner en direction de l'extérieur de la tablette de manière classique comme rappelé ci-dessus à l'égard de l'art antérieur. Cependant comme ces ailes 2a et 3a étaient primitivement rentrantes sous la tablette, cette rotation vers l'extérieur n'est pas cause d'une diminution du moment d'inertie de la poutre longitudinale que constitue chacun de ses bords 2 et 3. Il s'ensuit que la raideur longitudinale de la tablette n'est pas affectée malgré son fléchissement transversal et, là o on employait des tôles d'épaisseur de l'ordre de 0,9 mm, à condition égale de résistance, on peut employer des tôles d'une épaisseur de 0,6 mm. Il en résulte un gain de poids de  This figure shows in phantom and exaggeratedly the shape of the section of the tablet according to the invention when the latter is subjected to a load and bent not only longitudinally but also transversely. It is understood that the wings 2a and 3a of each of the V-shaped portions of the edges 2 and 3 of the tablet tend to rotate in the direction of the outside of the tablet in a conventional manner as recalled above with regard to the art. prior. However, since these wings 2a and 3a were originally retracted under the tablet, this rotation towards the outside is not a cause of a reduction in the moment of inertia of the longitudinal beam which constitutes each of its edges 2 and 3. It s ensues that the longitudinal stiffness of the shelf is not affected despite its transverse deflection and, where sheets of thickness of the order of 0.9 mm were used, with equal resistance, sheets can be used 0.6 mm thick. This results in a weight gain of

l'ordre de 30 % et un gain de prix correspondant.  around 30% and a corresponding price gain.

A la figure 4, on a représenté schématiquement par une coupe partielle une variante de réalisation d'un bord d'une tablette conforme à l'invention. Ce bord au lieu de présenter un V ouvert vers l'extérieur présente une surface cylindrique 7 dont la concavité est tournée vers l'extérieur et qui a pour fonction exactement la même fonction que celle de l'un des bords en V 2, 3. On notera cependant qu'au plan du coût de fabrication et notamment en ce qui concerne des fabrications de petite série, il est moins coûteux de fabriquer des tablettes conformément à la figure 3 ne demandant que des plieuses pour leur mise en forme alors que conformément à la figure 4, il faut faire appel à du cintrage dont la mise en oeuvre ne se conçoit  In Figure 4, there is shown schematically by a partial section an alternative embodiment of an edge of a shelf according to the invention. This edge instead of having a V open towards the outside has a cylindrical surface 7 whose concavity is turned towards the outside and which has the function exactly the same function as that of one of the edges in V 2, 3. Note however that in terms of manufacturing cost and in particular with regard to small series manufacturing, it is less expensive to manufacture tablets in accordance with FIG. 3 requiring only folders for their shaping whereas in accordance with Figure 4, it is necessary to use bending whose implementation is inconceivable

que pour des fabrications en grande série.  than for mass production.
