Abstract

The invention concerns a device for forming a retractable, removable level top (16), adjustable in height, for use in particular in cramped spaces such as, for instance, the rear seat of a vehicle. The invention is characterised in that it consists of an attaché case (10) provided with an articulated lid which when it is open has an internal surface forming a level top (16), and a magnetic plate (18) on the back of the attaché case (10) body, for fixing it to a support comprising a metal surface, while making it removable. When used in a motor vehicle, the metal surface comprises two identical supports, both consisting of a horizontal element (1), to be fixed on the headrest, at the top of the front seat, and of a vertical element (2) characterised in that it is articulated to the horizontal element (1) for adjusting in depth, and a metal plate facing the user for fixing the attaché case-level top at the desired height, notwithstanding the variations in distance between the supports while ensuring the removable nature of the attaché case. The device retains all or some of its advantages when at the back of the attaché case (10) and on the face of the vertical element (2), the fixing system: magnet (18), metal plate (8), is replaced by another system such as latching, screwing, adhesive bonding or catching.

Description

TITRE : DISPOSITIF COMPORTANT UNE MALLETTE FAISANT TABLETTE La présente invention concerne un dispositif comportant une mallette faisant tablette, escamotable, amovible, réglable en hauteur et profondeur, se positionnant dans des endroits exigus ou autres, comme par exemple l'arrière d'un véhicule automobile, et qui permet à l'utilisateur d'écrire, dessiner, poser des objets ou de la nourriture, jouer ou pratiquer toutes autres activités, en toute commodité et sécurité.TITLE: DEVICE COMPRISING A SHELF-SHAPED CASE The present invention relates to a device comprising a briefcase making a shelf, retractable, removable, adjustable in height and depth, positioned in cramped or other places, such as for example the rear of a motor vehicle , and which allows the user to write, draw, place objects or food, play or practice any other activity, in all comfort and safety.
Le problème est de mettre à la disposition des utilisateurs un équipement adaptable notamment à la plupart des véhicules automobiles, escamotable, amovible, facile à monter, réglable en hauteur et en profondeur, et comportant des rangements ; afin d'être utilisé confortablement et en toute sécurité, aussi bien par un enfant que par un adulte. C'est donc un équipement universel qu'il faut créer.The problem is to provide users with equipment that is adaptable, in particular to most motor vehicles, retractable, removable, easy to assemble, adjustable in height and depth, and comprising storage spaces; in order to be used comfortably and safely, both by a child and by an adult. It is therefore universal equipment that must be created.
Bien qu'il existe actuellement un système de tablette repliable dans certains véhicules de type monospace, celui-ci est intégré à la fabrication du siège et présente donc l'inconvénient de ne pas constituer un dispositif adaptable à la plupart des véhicules comme équipement secondaire, contrairement à notre invention. Bien qu'il existe une structure pliante pour repas (brevet d'invention n° 2.656.841) constituée de deux plaques que l'on fixe sur la ou les tiges supportant le repose tête du siège avant, cette structure présente, par rapport à notre invention, les inconvénients d'être difficile à monter, de ne pas être facilement amovible, de ne comporter que peu de possibilités de rangement, et surtout de n'être nullement réglable en hauteur ni en profondeur.Although there is currently a folding shelf system in certain vehicles of the people carrier type, it is integrated into the manufacture of the seat and therefore has the disadvantage of not constituting a device adaptable to most vehicles as secondary equipment, unlike our invention. Although there is a folding structure for meals (invention patent no. 2,656,841) consisting of two plates which are fixed on the rod or rods supporting the headrest of the front seat, this structure has, relative to our invention, the disadvantages of being difficult to assemble, of not being easily removable, of comprising only a few storage possibilities, and above all of being in no way adjustable in height or in depth.
Bien qu'il existe un sac de bord pouvant également servir de plateau de bord ou de support objet (brevet d'invention n° 2.707.570), cette structure présente, par rapport à notre invention, l'inconvénient principal de n'être ni réglable en hauteur, ni réglable en profondeur, ni facilement escamotable, ni facilement amovible. Dans l'état actuel, aucun dispositif ne présente simultanément les avantages d'être adaptable, escamotable, amovible, facile à monter, réglable en hauteur et profondeur, et de comporter de nombreux rangements.Although there is an edge bag that can also serve as an edge tray or object support (invention patent No. 2,707,570), this structure has, compared to our invention, the main disadvantage of not being neither adjustable in height, nor adjustable in depth, neither easily retractable, nor easily removable. In the current state, no device simultaneously has the advantages of being adaptable, retractable, removable, easy to assemble, adjustable in height and depth, and of having numerous storage spaces.
Par conséquent, la présente invention répond donc seule à ces avantages notoires déterminant l'utilisation réelle du dispositif. Elle permet d'équiper l'arrière d'un véhicule ou d'autres endroits et sert de support. Ce dispositif comporte une mallette caractérisée par son couvercle qui en s'ouvrant sert de tablette, et par la présence en son dos d'une plaque aimant qui assure sa fixation à toute surface métallique. Dans son application à l'automobile, cette surface comporte deux supports identiques, caractérisés par un élément horizontal, se fixant en haut du dossier du siège avant, et un élément vertical relié à l'élément horizontal par une articulation, permettant ainsi un réglage en profondeur ; et par la présence, face à l'utilisateur, d'une plaque métallique permettant la fixation de la mallette tablette à la hauteur voulue, nonobstant les variations d'écartement des supports et tout en assurant l'amovibilité de la mallette.Consequently, the present invention therefore alone responds to these notable advantages determining the actual use of the device. It is used to equip the rear of a vehicle or other places and serves as a support. This device includes a case characterized by its opening cover which serves as a shelf, and by the presence on its back of a magnet plate which ensures its attachment to any metal surface. In its application to the automobile, this surface comprises two identical supports, characterized by a horizontal element, which is fixed at the top of the back of the front seat, and a vertical element connected to the horizontal element by an articulation, thus allowing adjustment in depth; and by the presence, facing the user, of a metal plate allowing the tablet case to be fixed at the desired height, notwithstanding the variations in spacing of the supports and while ensuring the removability of the case.
Notre dispositif comporte donc au plus trois éléments principaux, et la présente invention sera bien comprise lors de la description suivante, faite en liaison avec les dessins ci-joints, dans lesquels : La figure 1 représente l'élément que l'on nomme mallette - tablette. La figure 2 représente l'un des deux autres éléments identiques que l'on nomme support fixation La figure 3 représente, vue en coupe, le dispositif installé dans un véhicule automobile.Our device therefore comprises at most three main elements, and the present invention will be clearly understood during the following description, made in conjunction with the attached drawings, in which: FIG. 1 represents the element which is called a case - Tablet. FIG. 2 represents one of the two other identical elements which are called fixing support. FIG. 3 represents, seen in section, the device installed in a motor vehicle.
La figure 4 représente, vue en coupe, le dispositif installé, sur un siège de salle de conférence par exemple.FIG. 4 represents, in section view, the device installed, on a conference room seat for example.
La figure 5 représente en coupe le dispositif installé contre une paroi verticale, de type mur par exemple La figure 6 représente . vue en coupe horizontale, la glissière et la tête d'articulation de l'élément vertical, et vue en coupe verticale, l'emboîtage des deux parties de l'élément horizontalFigure 5 shows in section the device installed against a vertical wall, wall type for example Figure 6 shows. horizontal section view, the slide and articulation head of the vertical element, and vertical section view, the fitting of the two parts of the horizontal element
En liaison tout d'abord avec les figure 1, 2,3 et 6, le dispositif est composé de trois éléments principaux Le premier élément est en forme de mallette 10 et c'est le couvercle qui en s'ouvrant permet de disposer d'une tablette 16 qui pourra être équipée de sa rallonge télescopique 17, coulissant selon une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe d'articulation.Firstly in connection with FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 6, the device is composed of three main elements. The first element is in the form of a case 10 and it is the cover which, when opened, makes it possible to have a shelf 16 which can be equipped with its telescopic extension 17, sliding in a direction perpendicular to the axis of articulation.
L'articulation du couvercle à la mallette est réalisé grâce, par exemple, à une diminution d'épaisseur de la matière plastique 33, qui fait ainsi charnière. La tablette 16 se bloque en position horizontale, grâce par exemple à un bourrelet de matière plastique 32 faisant butéeThe articulation of the cover to the case is achieved thanks, for example, to a reduction in the thickness of the plastic material 33, which thus forms a hinge. The shelf 16 locks in a horizontal position, for example thanks to a plastic bead 32 making a stop
La mallette 0 comporte intérieurement de nombreux rangements comme par exemple un porte gobelet, ou biberon 14. caractérisé par une plaque compoπant un trou d un αiametre de 60 à 80 mm. et par une charnière lui permettant de se replie'" contre la mallette . un emplacement pour y mettre des crayons, caractérisé par un ceπain nombre de trous 15 d'un diamètre permettant d'y introduire un crayon de façon verticale , un emplacement pour y mettre un bloc note, caractérisé par 3 éléments le soutenant 12 , et d'autres possibilités de rangement d'objets, d'une épaisseur inférieure à l'épaisseur de la mallette, tels que des jeux de cartes, téléphone portable et autres par exemple. Elle comporte également d'autres emplacements où l'on peut mettre un miroir 13, des illustrations ou motifs décoratifs par exemple.Case 0 has numerous internal storage spaces, such as a cup or bottle holder 14. characterized by a plate with a hole of 60 to 80 mm diameter. and by a hinge allowing it to be folded "against the case. a location for the placement of rods, characterized by a number of holes 15 ceπain a diameter allowing to introduce a vertically pencil, a site for put a notepad, characterized by 3 elements supporting it 12, and other possibilities for storing objects, of a thickness less than the thickness of the case, such as card games, mobile phone and others for example It also has other locations where one can put a mirror 13, illustrations or decorative patterns for example.
La fermeture du couvercle faisant tablette 16 est constituée, sur sa face intérieure, en bordure et en son extrémité du côté opposé à l'articulation 33, d'une patte 24 intégrée à cette extrémité, qui s'encliquette dans la bordure intérieure 25, en haut, de la mallette 10.The closure of the cover forming a shelf 16 is constituted, on its inner face, at the edge and at its end on the side opposite the articulation 33, of a tab 24 integrated at this end, which snaps into the inner edge 25, at the top of the case 10.
La mallette est caractérisée par la présence en son dos d'une plaque aimant 18, et c'est en appliquant son dos aimanté 18 aux supports comportant les plaques de métal 8 que l'ensemble support-fixation et mallette - tablette est solidaire, avec une importante possibilité de réglage en hauteur, et en éliminant le problème de la variation de l'écartement des montants des appuis-tête d'un véhicule à l'autre. La plaque aimant, d'une épaisseur de un à trois millimètres, couvre la quasi totalité du dos de la valisette auquel elle est insérée, à la fabrication, grâce, par exemple, a des orifices ou la matière plastique vient se loger, et grâce a l'adhérence entre les surfaces de l'aimant 18 et la matière plastique composant le dos de la mallette, la rendant ainsi invisibleThe case is characterized by the presence on its back of a magnet plate 18, and it is by applying its magnetic back 18 to the supports comprising the metal plates 8 that the support-fixing and case-shelf assembly is secured, with a significant possibility of height adjustment, and eliminating the problem of varying the spacing of the amounts of the head restraints from one vehicle to another. The magnet plate, with a thickness of one to three millimeters, covers almost the entire back of the case in which it is inserted, at manufacturing, thanks, for example, to holes where the plastic material is housed, and thanks to the adhesion between the surfaces of the magnet 18 and the plastic material making up the back of the case, thus making it invisible
La puissance de l'aimant est calculée afin que la mallette soit parfaitement et solidement 85 maintenue sur ses supports, mais aussi afin de permettre, en saisissant la mallette par sa poignée 1 1 et en tirant fortement, l'amovibilité de celle-ci , la plaque aimant 18 est d'une épaisseur de un a trois millimètres, d'une largeur égale ou légèrement inférieure a la largeur du dos du corps de la mallette 10, et d'une hauteur égale ou légèrement inférieure a la hauteur de la partie plane du dos de la mallette 10, pour présenter une surface minimale 90 commune d assemblage d'au moins 150 cm2 avec la surface métallique du support sur laquelle la mallette se fixe , la plaque aimant est constituée par exemple de caoutchouc magnétique anisotropique, renforcée et πgidifiee par une plaque d'acierThe power of the magnet is calculated so that the case is perfectly and securely 85 held on its supports, but also in order to allow, by grasping the case by its handle 1 1 and pulling strongly, the removability thereof, the magnet plate 18 is one to three millimeters thick, of a width equal to or slightly less than the width of the back of the body of the case 10, and of a height equal to or slightly less than the height of the part flat back of the case 10, to have a minimum 90 common surface of assembly of at least 150 cm 2 with the metal surface of the support on which the case is fixed, the magnet plate is made for example of anisotropic magnetic rubber, reinforced and identified by a steel plate
Les deux autres éléments sont les supports qui sont en fait identiques et qui se fixent en haut du fauteuil, devant 1 utilisateur, aux montants des appuis tête 9 par exempleThe two other elements are the supports which are in fact identical and which are fixed at the top of the armchair, in front of 1 user, to the uprights of the head restraints 9 for example
95 Les deux supports identiques se positionnent le long du dos du fauteuil 23 et peuvent être tires vers l'utilisateur grâce a une articulation 3 permettant plusieurs positions95 The two identical supports are positioned along the back of the chair 23 and can be pulled towards the user thanks to an articulation 3 allowing several positions
Le support est compose d'une partie sensiblement horizontale 1 et d'une partie sensiblement verticale 2 articulées entre ellesThe support consists of a substantially horizontal part 1 and a substantially vertical part 2 hinged together
La partie horizontale 1 se présente sous la forme d'une plaque épaisse qui se fixe en haut du 100 fauteuil grâce a un orifice vertical 7 permettant le passage du montant de 1 appui-tête 9 L'orifice 7 est suffisamment grand pour s'adapter au diamètre des montants 9 de la plupart des véhicules, et, pour bloquer l'élément horizontal au montant de 1 appui-tête nous disposons d une ou plusieurs vis de serrage 6 donnant dans l'orifice L autre extrémité de cette partie horizontale comporte une mâchoire 19 qui coincera la tête d articulation 30 105 grâce a un svsteme αe saillies de tvpe ravonnant 5 autour de 1 axe -The horizontal part 1 is in the form of a thick plate which is fixed at the top of the 100 chair thanks to a vertical opening 7 allowing the passage of the amount of 1 headrest 9 The opening 7 is large enough to adapt to the diameter of the uprights 9 of most vehicles, and, to block the horizontal element to the upright of 1 headrest, we have one or more clamping screws 6 giving into the orifice The other end of this horizontal part has a jaw 19 which will wedge the articulation head 30 105 thanks to a system with protruding tvpe projections 5 around 1 axis -
La partie * eπicale 2 se présente comme une longue plaque de 30 a D0 cm peu épaisse de 1 a 3 cm, mais assez large 4 a 8 cm qui se positionne verticalement le long du dos du fauteuil, tout contre celui-ci en position escamotée, et comporte dans sa partie haute une articulation 3 et son axe 4 autonsant un réglage en profondeur, afin de compenser 110 l'inclinaison du fauteuil, en tirant pour positionner le support 2 de façon sensiblement verticale Ce même réglage en profondeur permet a l'utilisateur de disposer de la tablette en restant bien assis au fond de son siège en toute sécurité, maintenu avec sa ceintureThe * eπicale 2 part is presented as a long 30 to D0 cm plate, not very thick from 1 to 3 cm, but fairly wide 4 to 8 cm which is positioned vertically along the back of the chair, all against it in the retracted position , and has in its upper part an articulation 3 and its axis 4 autonsant a depth adjustment, in order to compensate 110 for the inclination of the chair, by pulling to position the support 2 in a substantially vertical manner This same depth adjustment allows the user to dispose of the tablet while sitting securely in the back of their seat safely, held with their belt
La partie horizontale 1, dans sa variante réglable en longueur, est divisée en deux dans sa longueur, donnant ainsi un morceau comportant l'orifice 7 et donnant dans l'orifice, les visThe horizontal part 1, in its length-adjustable variant, is divided in two in its length, thus giving a piece comprising the orifice 7 and giving in the orifice, the screws

L'articulation 3, grâce par exemple a un système de saillies rayonnant autour de l'axe 4 réalise en complémentarité sur l'élément horizontal 1 et sur l'élément vertical 2, se bloquera sur la position choisie par l'utilisateur, par comçage automatique sur cette position, grâce au matériau plastique employé pour la fabrication des éléments, qui offre 1 eiasticre nécessaire 125 au niveau des mâchoires 19, le réglage se fait pas à pas, d'une valeur angulaire correspondant à l'écart entre deux parties saillantes.The articulation 3, thanks for example to a system of projections radiating around the axis 4 carried out in complementarity on the horizontal element 1 and on the vertical element 2, will lock in the position chosen by the user, by countering automatic in this position, thanks to the plastic material used for the manufacture of the elements, which provides 1 eiasticre necessary 125 at the level of the jaws 19, the adjustment is made step by step, with an angular value corresponding to the distance between two projecting parts.
Dans sa variante réglable en hauteur, la tête d'articulation 30 est reliée à l'élément vertical 2 par une glissière 20 intégrée dans la hauteur de l'élément vertical 2, sur sa face arrière opposée à l'utilisateur, permettant un réglage par coulissement de la tête et par une vis 21 130 donnant sur la glissière, et permettant le blocage à la hauteur voulue.In its variant adjustable in height, the articulation head 30 is connected to the vertical element 2 by a slide 20 integrated in the height of the vertical element 2, on its rear face opposite to the user, allowing adjustment by sliding of the head and by a screw 21 130 giving on the slide, and allowing the blocking at the desired height.
La partie verticale 2 comporte sur sa surface plane du coté de l'utilisateur, une plaque métallique 8 couvrant quasiment la totalité de celle-ci. La plaque métallique est insérée au support, à la fabrication, grâce, par exemple, à des orifices ou des pattes dans lesquels, ou autour desquelles, la matière plastique vient se loger. C'est sur cette plaque que l'élément 135 mallette 10 va se fixer.The vertical part 2 comprises on its flat surface on the side of the user, a metal plate 8 covering almost the whole of the latter. The metal plate is inserted into the support during manufacture, for example by means of holes or tabs in which, or around which, the plastic material is housed. It is on this plate that the element 135 case 10 will be fixed.
En liaison avec la figure 4, le dispositif simplifié s'adapte sur n'importe quel siège d'une salle de conférence ou d'un train ou d'un avion par exemple. Dans ce cas, nous retrouvons intégralement la mallette - tablette 10 avec son aimant 18, mais le support 8 est fixé solidement au dos du siège de devant 42, dans la structure solide de celui-ci 43 grâce à desIn connection with FIG. 4, the simplified device can be adapted to any seat in a conference room or a train or an airplane for example. In this case, we fully find the case - tablet 10 with its magnet 18, but the support 8 is securely attached to the back of the front seat 42, in the solid structure thereof 43 thanks to
140 vis 46 ou tout autre système de fixation, et par conséquent l'élément horizontale 1 disparaît. En effet, dans ce cas le réglage pour rattraper l'inclinaison du siège de devant n'est pas nécessaire, car même si le dos n'est pas parfaitement vertical, c'est lors de la fixation par les vis 46 qu'il faudra régler, par calage, une bonne fois pour toute la verticalité du support 8. Par ailleurs, dans ce cas il n'est pas nécessaire de pouvoir tirer ou pousser le support pour140 screws 46 or any other fixing system, and consequently the horizontal element 1 disappears. Indeed, in this case the adjustment to catch the inclination of the front seat is not necessary, because even if the back is not perfectly vertical, it is during the fixing by the screws 46 that it will be necessary adjust, by wedging, once and for all the verticality of the support 8. Furthermore, in this case it is not necessary to be able to pull or push the support to
145 escamoter le dispositif, et par conséquent l'articulation 3 disparaît.145 retract the device, and consequently the joint 3 disappears.
En liaison avec la figure 5, le dispositif également simplifié s'adapte sur une paroi verticale 51. Dans ce cas le support 8 est solidement fixé verticalement à la paroi 51 , grâce à un système de vis 54 par exemple. Ainsi, le dispositif permet, dans n'importe quel endroit comportant une paroi verticale 51 ou un mur. comme par exemple une salle d'attente, un 150 couloir, un restaurant, ou même dans la rue. de disposer d'une mallette - tablette 10 avec réglage en hauteur grâce à la fixation par l'aimant 18 au dos de la mallette, s'appiiquant sur le support 8 et bien sur avec l' amovibilité II faut noter que dans ce cas. le support 8 peut être installé à différentes hauteurs selon la taille des utilisateurs et selon que l'utilisation de la mallette - tablette se fasse assis ou debout.In connection with FIG. 5, the also simplified device fits on a vertical wall 51. In this case the support 8 is securely fixed vertically to the wall 51, thanks to a system of screws 54 for example. Thus, the device allows, in any place having a vertical wall 51 or a wall. like for example a waiting room, a hallway, a restaurant, or even in the street. to dispose of a case - tablet 10 with height adjustment through the setting by the magnet 18 on the back of the case, s' appiiquant on the support 8 and of course with the removability It is noted that in this case. the support 8 can be installed at different heights depending on the size of the users and whether the use of the case - tablet be done sitting or standing.
155 II faut aussi considérer le cas où la paroi verticale 51 étant d'origine en métal, comme par exemple la carrosserie d'un véhicule ou le bardage d'un bâtiment, le dispositif composé essentiellement de la mallette - tablette 10 devient ainsi immédiatement opérationnel.155 It is also necessary to consider the case where the vertical wall 51 being of metal origin, such as for example the bodywork of a vehicle or the cladding of a building, the device essentially consisting of the case - shelf 10 thus becomes immediately operational. .
Par ailleurs, le contenu de la mallette et ses différentes possibilités de rangement, d'aménagement et de modifications des volumes font de ce dispositif, basé sur tout ou 160 partie des principes et des éléments de réglage, escamotage, amovibilité, peut servir à des applications particulières, comme par exemple des applications professionnelles avec, dans la valisette des instruments de mesures ou un ordinateur portable, mais aussi à des applications de loisir comme par exemple y mettre un jeu.In addition, the contents of the case and its different possibilities of storage, arrangement and modifications of the volumes make this device, based on all or 160 part of the principles and elements of adjustment, retraction, removable, can be used for specific applications, such as professional applications with, in the suitcase of measuring instruments or a laptop, but also to leisure applications such as putting a game on it.
La fabrication industrielle du présent dispositif pourra se faire par exemple, excepté 165 l'aimant, les plaques métalliques et les vis, en matière plastique de type polypropylène ou ABS.The industrial manufacture of this device can be done for example, except 165 the magnet, the metal plates and the screws, in plastic material of polypropylene or ABS type.
La présent invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples que nous avons cités ou décrits, elle est susceptible de modifications et de variantes qui apparaîtront aujourd'hui ou demain à l'homme de l'art. 170 II est notamment facile d'imaginer tout autre système de fixation de la mallette 10 aux 2 supports verticaux 2 ou tout autre paroi comme par exemple en liaison avec la figure 7 un système de crochets 72 sur les supports avec des ouvertures en saillie 71 au dos de la mallette. Dans ce cas, les avantages d'adaptabilité et d'amovibilité du dispositif restent présents.The present invention is not limited to the examples which we have cited or described, it is capable of modifications and variants which will appear today or tomorrow to those skilled in the art. 170 It is particularly easy to imagine any other system for attaching the case 10 to the 2 vertical supports 2 or any other wall, for example in conjunction with FIG. 7, a system of hooks 72 on the supports with projecting openings 71 at back of the case. In this case, the advantages of adaptability and removability of the device remain present.
175 A ce jour, les autres systèmes de fixation, tels que l'encliquetage, le vissage, le collage, de la mallette 10 aux 2 supports verticaux 2 ou tout autre paroi peuvent assurer une amovibilité de la mallette par rapport aux supports ou tout autre paroi, mais est plus ou moins facile à mettre en œuvre voire même en cas de collage par exemple impossible à réaliser. Dans ce cas, le dispositif n'est pas amovible mais garde tous ses autres175 To date, the other fastening systems, such as snap-fastening, screwing, gluing, of the case 10 to the 2 vertical supports 2 or any other wall can ensure that the case is removable from the supports or any other wall, but is more or less easy to implement or even in case of bonding, for example impossible to achieve. In this case, the device is not removable but keeps all of its others
