Abstract

The clip (1), preferably made from a biodegradable or biofragmentable material, has two hinged and curved branches (3) with rounded edges (2) to avoid damage to plants. The hinge has a double zone of rotation (8) with internal projections that grip a supporting wire when the two branches are pressed together so that their free ends (4) engage.

Description

285891 8285891 8

La présente invention sert à maintenir le long d'un fil vertical la tige d'un végétal.  The present invention serves to maintain the stem of a plant along a vertical wire.

Pour les tomates, concombres, courgettes etc..., en général toutes les plantes qui donnent des fruits ou des légumes d'un poids certain ont besoin d'être tuteurées. Dans les serres, pour faciliter et rationaliser la récolte et la culture des plantes, on tire un fil de préférence souple du sol vers un appui sous le faîte de la serre. Ce fil souple sert de tuteur. Le végétal court le long de ce fil. IL est maintenu par un clip qui va ceinturer la tige et se fixer sur le fil. Dans les cas de culture hors sol, après la saison, on retire des serres les plantes avec leur support organique, les fils, les clips, le tout mélangé. Ensuite, ces déchets vont être mis en décharge et le compost qui va s'en suivre être pollué par tout ce qui ne sera pas dégradé et son réemploi est plus délicat. La présente invention va remédier aux nombreux problèmes posés par l'utilisation des clips jusqu'à présent utilisés.  For tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, etc., in general all plants that produce fruits or vegetables of a certain weight need to be staked. In greenhouses, to facilitate and rationalize the harvesting and cultivation of plants, a preferably flexible yarn is drawn from the ground to a support under the ridge of the greenhouse. This flexible thread serves as a tutor. The plant runs along this thread. It is held by a clip that will surround the rod and attach itself to the wire. In the case of soilless cultivation, after the season, the plants are removed from the greenhouses with their organic support, the threads, the clips, all mixed together. Then, this waste will be landfilled and the compost that will follow be polluted by all that will not be degraded and its re-use is more difficult. The present invention will overcome the many problems posed by the use of the clips so far used.

Le clip de tuteurage de la tige d'une plante donnant des légumes ou des fruits d'un certain poids que nous avons développé, à un corps de forme ronde (1) dans la position fermé avec des bords (2) parfaitement ronds et d'une certaine hauteur pour ne pas blesser le végétale. L'orientation et la disposition des branches (3) préforment une large ouverture et favorisent amplement son appréhension entre le pouce et l'index rendant plus rapide le clipsage. Les branches sont terminées par un dispositif (4) vé rouillant la fermeture donné à titre 285891 8 - 2 - indicatif mais non limitatif de méthode et de forme. Une simple pression sur les branches (zone 9) suffit à assurer la fermeture.  The staking clip of the stem of a plant giving vegetables or fruits of a certain weight that we have developed, to a round body (1) in the closed position with perfectly rounded edges (2) and 'a certain height not to hurt the plant. The orientation and the arrangement of the branches (3) preform a wide opening and amply promote his apprehension between the thumb and the index making it faster to clipping. The branches are terminated by a device (4) vee rusting the closure given by 285891 8 - 2 - indicative but not limiting method and form. A simple pressure on the branches (zone 9) is enough to ensure the closure.

Le système de la charnière 5) à double zone de rotation (8) à l'originalité d'avoir la souplesse de relier les deux branches (2) du corps (1) du clip de tuteurage et d'avoir la fermeté de maintenir le fil tuteur dans une zone de compression (6). A la fermeture du clip, les deux mini-branches (7) du système de fermeture vont pivoter et se retrouver en contact l'une contre l'autre et former la zone de compression (6) du fil avec la base de la charnière (6a). Le clip fermé ne peut plus divaguer le long du fil tuteur. La zone de rotation (8) des mini-branches n'est donnée qu'à titre indicatif, l'importance de cette zone jouant avec la matière utilisée pour la fabrication afin de ne pas fragiliser la charnière. On peut aussi ne faire qu'une zone de rotation pour abaisser le prix de revient des pièces produites.  The hinge system 5) with double rotation zone (8) has the originality to have the flexibility to connect the two branches (2) of the body (1) of the staking clip and have the firmness to maintain the guard wire in a compression zone (6). When closing the clip, the two mini-branches (7) of the closure system will pivot and come into contact with each other and form the compression zone (6) of the wire with the base of the hinge ( 6a). The closed clip can no longer wander along the guard wire. The rotation zone (8) of the mini-branches is given for information only, the importance of this zone playing with the material used for manufacturing so as not to weaken the hinge. One can also make only a rotation zone to lower the cost price of the parts produced.

Chaque application du clip de tuteurage peut avoir une fabrication adéquate. Pour des raisons écologiques et pour ne pas retrouver les clips dans le compost, ils seront fabriqués en matière biodégradable. Pour des raisons économiques, afin de ne pas alourdir les prix de revient de la culture, on utilisera des matières moins nobles. En ajoutant une quantité plus ou moins importante de substance végétale naturelle pouvant atteindre le seuil de la rupture mécanique de la matière choisie, nous créons des micro-amorces de rupture naturelle et de ce fait favoriser la fragmentation lorsque les pièces sont jetées au compost (phénomène de biofragmentation).  Each application of the staking clip can be adequately manufactured. For ecological reasons and not to find the clips in the compost, they will be made of biodegradable material. For economic reasons, in order not to increase the costs of the culture, we will use less noble materials. By adding a greater or lesser amount of natural plant substance that can reach the threshold of the mechanical rupture of the chosen material, we create micro-primers of natural rupture and thus promote fragmentation when the pieces are thrown into compost (phenomenon biofragmentation).

285891 8 3 Si la méthode écologique n'est pas retenue, notre clip peutêtre fabriqué avec d'autres matières non dégradables où il excellera grâce à sa morphologie dans ce genre de culture ou pour d'autres cultures à tuteurage.  285891 8 3 If the ecological method is not retained, our clip can be made with other non-degradable materials where it will excel thanks to its morphology in this kind of culture or for other staking cultures.

On peut aussi prévoir des prohéminences à l'intérieur du clip pour éviter les divagations et le maintien plus appuyé de la tige du végétal.  We can also provide prohéminences inside the clip to avoid the wanderings and the maintenance more supported of the stem of the plant.
