Description

DISPOSITIF POUR LE STOCKAGE ET LE TRANSPORT D'ELEMENTS ALLONGES TELS QUE DES PARE-CHOCSDEVICE FOR STORING AND TRANSPORTING ELONGATE COMPONENTS SUCH AS BUMPERS
La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour le stockage et le transport d'éléments allongés à extrémités rabattues du même côté.The present invention relates to a device for storing and transporting elongated elements with ends folded back on the same side.
Elle est particulièrement mais non exclusivement adaptée au stockage et au transport de pare-chocs de véhicules automobiles. Ces pare-chocs sont le plus souvent fabriqués et peints chez un sous- traitant, puis sont transportés dans des camions, jusqu'à l'usine de montage des véhicules automobiles.It is particularly but not exclusively suitable for the storage and transport of motor vehicle bumpers. These bumpers are most often manufactured and painted at a subcontractor, then transported in trucks to the assembly plant for motor vehicles.
Des dispositifs de stockage et de transport de ces pare-chocs ont déjà été proposés. Pour la plupart, ils comportent un socle métallique de forme généralement rectangulaire allongée, qui peut être déplacé au moyen d'un chariot élévateur.Storage and transport devices for these bumpers have already been proposed. For the most part, they have a metal base of generally elongated rectangular shape, which can be moved by means of a forklift.
Ce socle est pourvu d'arceaux métalliques généralement verticaux, qui supportent des pièces de montage et de calage des pare-chocs peints, par exemple en matière plastique.This base is provided with generally vertical metal arches, which support mounting and wedging parts for painted bumpers, for example made of plastic.
Le socle est également équipé d'un caillebotis central et longitudinal qu'emprunte l'opérateur pour mettre en place un-à-un les pare-chocs sur leurs supports. Le nombre de pare-chocs qu'il est possible de stocker dans un tel conteneur est nécessairement limité du fait de l'encombrement des arceaux métalliques et de l'espace qu'il est nécessaire de laisser libre pour le passage de l'opérateur. Le nombre de moyen de pare-chocs par conteneur est de l'ordre de six à dix. On comprend aisément que cela limite considérablement le nombre total de pare-chocs transportés par camion. Or, le coût de transport de tels objets est largement supérieur au prix de revient des conteneursThe base is also equipped with a central and longitudinal grating that the operator uses to place the bumpers one by one on their supports. The number of bumpers that it is possible to store in such a container is necessarily limited due to the size of the metal arches and the space that it is necessary to leave free for the passage of the operator. The number of bumper means per container is in the range of six to ten. It is easy to understand that this considerably limits the total number of bumpers transported by truck. However, the cost of transporting such objects is much higher than the cost price of the containers
Un autre inconvénient de ces dispositifs de l'état de la technique réside dans le fait que l'opérateur doit prendre soin de ne pas cogner le pare-chocs qu'il met en place ou enlève contre les autres pare-chocs ou leurs supports métalliques, au risque de les abîmer, par exemple en rayant la peinture qui les recouvre.Another drawback of these prior art devices lies in the fact that the operator must take care not to bump the bumper which he places or removes against the other bumpers or their metal supports. , at the risk of damaging them, for example by scratching the paint that covers them.
De plus, au transport, les vibrations générées par le camion peuvent provoquer des frottements des pare-chocs contre leurs supports, susceptibles de les abîmer La présente invention a pour but d'apporter une solution à ces problèmesIn addition, during transport, the vibrations generated by the truck can cause the bumpers to rub against their supports, which could damage them. The present invention aims to provide a solution to these problems.
En d'autres termes, elle vise à fournir un dispositif de stockage et de transport qui, à encombrement égal, permet d'y placer un nombre élevé d'éléments allongés tels que des pare-chocs. Elle vise également à atteindre le but précité tout en permettant la mise en place et l'enlèvement des éléments sans πsque de les abîmer.In other words, it aims to provide a storage and transport device which, with equal bulk, allows a large number of elongated elements such as bumpers to be placed there. It also aims to achieve the aforementioned goal while allowing the establishment and removal of the elements without πsque damaging them.
Enfin, elle vise à atteindre ces objectifs à l'aide de moyens simples et peu coûteux. Ces objectifs, ainsi que d'autres, sont atteints conformément à l'inv ention, par le fait que ce dispositif pour le stockage et le transport d'éléments allongés à extrémités rabattues du même côté, tels que des pare-chocs de véhicules automobiles, comporte verticalement le long de deux côtés opposés, plusieurs sénés de sangles semi- πgides en forme générale de "U", dont la barre transversale s'étend sensiblement hoπzontalement et vers l'intérieur, deux sangles en regard l'une de l'autre étant adaptées pour soutenir par leur branche transversale, un élément au niveau des zones de raccordement de sa partie intermédiaire à ses extrémités.Finally, it aims to achieve these objectives using simple and inexpensive means. These objectives, as well as others, are achieved in accordance with the invention, by the fact that this device for the storage and transport of elongated elements with ends folded back on the same side, such as bumpers of motor vehicles , comprises vertically along two opposite sides, several senna straps semi-πgides in general shape of "U", whose crossbar extends substantially hoπzontal and inwardly, two straps facing one of the other being adapted to support by their transverse branch, an element at the connection zones of its intermediate part at its ends.
Du fait que le dispositif ne comporte pas de moyens de supports métalliques qui, par construction, occupent nécessairement de l'espace, il est possible d'\ stocker un nombre plus élevé d'éléments tels que des pare-chocs, ceci à encombrement égal.Since the device does not include means of metal supports which, by construction, necessarily occupy space, it is possible to store a higher number of elements such as bumpers, this with equal dimensions .
Par ailleurs, du fait qu'on utilise des sangles, le risque d'abîmer les éléments lors de leur mise en place et de leur enlèvement est réduit. Ces sangles peuvent, dans une certaine mesure, s'escamoter pour faciliter le placement ou l'enlèvement d'un élémentFurthermore, because straps are used, the risk of damaging the elements during their installation and removal is reduced. These straps can, to a certain extent, retract to facilitate the placement or removal of an element

Le dispositif représenté sur les figures annexées est particulièrement adapté pour stocker et transporter des pare-chocs de véhicules automobiles.The device shown in the appended figures is particularly suitable for storing and transporting motor vehicle bumpers.
Ce dispositif comporte un socle métallique qui porte la référence numérique 1. En vue de dessus (figure 2), il affecte la forme d'un rectangle allongé avec deux côtés longitudinaux et deux côtés transversaux. Ces côtés sont matérialisés par un assemblage de profilés creux métalliques 10 et 11 soudés entre eux. De préférence, la longueur des profilés longitudinaux 11 correspond sensiblement à la largeur de la remorque du camion dans lequel ce type de dispositif est destiné à être logé.This device comprises a metal base which bears the reference numeral 1. When viewed from above (Figure 2), it takes the form of an elongated rectangle with two longitudinal sides and two transverse sides. These sides are materialized by an assembly of hollow metal sections 10 and 11 welded together. Preferably, the length of the longitudinal sections 11 corresponds substantially to the width of the trailer of the truck in which this type of device is intended to be housed.
Longitudinalement et en position médiane s'étend, dans le plan du socle 1, une allée 14 constituée d'un caillebotis central 140 qui s'appuie latéralement sur deux profilés longitudinaux 141. Les profilés 141 sont creux et débouchent au niveau du côté transversal avant du socle matérialisé par un profilé 10. On a repéré par la référence 142 les ouvertures des profilés 141 à ce niveau, leur écartement étant prévu pour permettre d'y insérer les fourches d'un chariot élévateur.Longitudinally and in the middle position extends, in the plane of the base 1, an aisle 14 consisting of a central grating 140 which is supported laterally on two longitudinal sections 141. The sections 141 are hollow and open at the front transverse side of the base materialized by a profile 10. The reference 142 has the openings of the profiles 141 at this level, their spacing being provided to allow the forks of a forklift to be inserted therein.
Comme on le verra plus loin, l'allée 14 permet à un opérateur devant charger des pare-chocs sur le dispositif, de se déplacer depuis l'avant jusqu'au fond de celui-ci et inversement.As will be seen below, aisle 14 allows an operator to load bumpers on the device, to move from the front to the bottom of the latter and vice versa.
A chaque angle du socle 1 s'étendent verticalement des poteaux métalliques 12 A titre indicatif, ils mesurent environ lm50 de hauteur. Ils sont fixés au socle par soudage et ce montage est renforcé par des cornières d'angle triangulaires 15.At each angle of the base 1 extend vertically metal posts 12 As an indication, they measure about lm50 in height. They are fixed to the base by welding and this mounting is reinforced by triangular angle angles 15.
Parallèlement au poteau d'angle 12 s'étendent le long des profilés 11 plusieurs paires de poteaux secondaires 13. Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure 2, quatre paires de poteaux sont prévues le long de chaque profilé 11. Toutefois, un nombre différent pourrait être prévu, par exemple trois ou cinq paires. On notera que la disposi- tion des poteaux secondaires le long des deux grands côtés du socle est symétrique par rapport à un plan médian vertical. Par conséquent, les poteaux de chaque paire se font face deux à deux.Parallel to the corner post 12 extend along the sections 11 several pairs of secondary posts 13. In the example shown in FIG. 2, four pairs of posts are provided along each section 11. However, a different number could be expected, for example three or five pairs. Note that the provision tion of the secondary posts along the two long sides of the base is symmetrical with respect to a vertical median plane. Consequently, the posts of each pair face two by two.
Enfin, l'extrémité supérieure libre des poteaux 12 et 13 est fixé à un profilé horizontal 11, similaire à ceux qui équipent le socle.Finally, the free upper end of the posts 12 and 13 is fixed to a horizontal profile 11, similar to those which equip the base.
Les poteaux secondaires 13 sont de préférence formés de profilés métalliques creux et sur leur face tournée vers l'intérieur du dispositif est fixée une plaque verticale 50 d'épaisseur réduite, par exemple au moyen de vis non représentées. D'une pièce avec cette plaque est prévue une glissière verticale à section en forme de "C" 51 , dont l'ouverture, qui s'étend verticalement, est tournée vers l'intérieur du dispositif.The secondary posts 13 are preferably formed from hollow metal profiles and on their face facing the interior of the device is fixed a vertical plate 50 of reduced thickness, for example by means of screws not shown. In one piece with this plate is provided a vertical slide section in the shape of "C" 51, whose opening, which extends vertically, faces the interior of the device.
Pour chacun des poteaux secondaires 13 il existe donc une glissière 51 associée. Elles se font face deux-à-deux, avec leurs ouvertures en regard l'une de l'autre. Le dispositif selon l'invention est également équipé de bavettes qui portent la référence 3. Il s'agit par exemple de bandes de toile, telles que celles utilisées pour le bâchage des camions. De préférence, il s'agit d'une toile en matière plastique avantageusement renforcée par un maillage métallique ou en fibres. Tout en étant solides, ces bavettes sont susceptibles d'être déformées.For each of the secondary posts 13 there is therefore an associated slide 51. They face each other in pairs, with their openings facing each other. The device according to the invention is also equipped with flaps which bear the reference 3. These are, for example, strips of canvas, such as those used for tarpaulin covering trucks. Preferably, it is a plastic fabric advantageously reinforced by a metallic or fiber mesh. While being solid, these flaps are liable to be deformed.
Ces bavettes ont une forme rectangulaire allongée avec leurs deux grands côtés 30 qui présentent la longueur voisine de la hauteur des poteaux 13. Leurs petits côtés présentent une faible dimension, par exemple de l'ordre d'une dizaine de centimètres.These flaps have an elongated rectangular shape with their two long sides 30 which have the length close to the height of the posts 13. Their short sides have a small dimension, for example of the order of ten centimeters.
L'un de leurs grands côtés est rabattu à 360° sur lui-même, autour d'un jonc ou âme métallique 6 qui, également, a sensiblement la même hauteur que celle des poteaux. Cet assemblage est maintenu en place par une ou plusieurs séries de lignes de couture C.One of their long sides is folded 360 ° on itself, around a rod or metal core 6 which, also, has substantially the same height as that of the posts. This assembly is held in place by one or more series of seam lines C.
Comme le montre plus précisément la figure 4, chaque bâche 3 est insérée, au niveau de son bord vertical pourvu de la glissière en "C", à l'intérieur de la glissière 51. Le jonc 6 constitue en quelque sorte un axe vertical d'articulation pour chaque bavette 3. On a donc affaire, en se référant à la figure 2, longitudinalement le long de chaque côté du dispositif, à huit bavettes 3 réparties en quatre paires.As shown more precisely in FIG. 4, each sheet 3 is inserted, at its vertical edge provided with the slide at "C", inside the slide 51. The ring 6 constitutes in a way a vertical axis d 'articulation for each flap 3. We are therefore dealing, with reference to Figure 2, longitudinally along each side of the device, with eight flaps 3 distributed in four pairs.
Conformément à l'invention, s'étendent dans le sens vertical entre chaque paire de bavettes, une série de sangles semi-rigides 2 en forme générale "U". Ces sangles sont fixées par leurs branches parallèles 21, aux faces externes des bavettes 3. Cette fixation est réalisée par exemple au moyen de lignes de couture C, comme le montre la figure 3. Ces sangles sont généralement dirigées vers le bas et leurs ailes parallèles forment avec l'horizontale un angle aigu de l'ordre de 60° environ.According to the invention, extend in the vertical direction between each pair of flaps, a series of semi-rigid straps 2 in general shape "U". These straps are fixed by their parallel branches 21, to the external faces of the flaps 3. This fixing is carried out for example by means of seam lines C, as shown in FIG. 3. These straps are generally directed downwards and their parallel wings form with the horizontal an acute angle of the order of approximately 60 °.
La barre transversale 20 des sangles s'étend horizontalement et longitudina- lement par rapport au socle du dispositif, et donc transversalement par rapport aux bavettes 3. Cependant, du fait de l'inclinaison des branches 21 par rapport à l'horizontale, le plan dans lequel est contenue la barre transversale 20 est incliné par rapport à la verticaleThe crossbar 20 of the straps extends horizontally and longitudinally relative to the base of the device, and therefore transversely relative to the flaps 3. However, due to the inclination of the branches 21 relative to the horizontal, the plane in which the crossbar 20 is contained is inclined relative to the vertical
Comme le montre en particulier la figure 5, le matériau qui constitue chacune des sangles, par exemple un tissage de fibres de polyamide, est πgidifié par une âme métallique 7. Celle-ci ne s'étend qu'au niveau de la barre transversale 20. Celle-ci est en fait constituée de deux bandes cousues entre elles et à l'intérieur desquels est insérée ladite âme 7.As shown in particular in Figure 5, the material which constitutes each of the straps, for example a weaving of polyamide fibers, is πgidified by a metallic core 7. This extends only at the level of the transverse bar 20 This is in fact made up of two bands sewn together and inside which said core 7 is inserted.
Comme le montre la figure 1, cinq sangles 2 sont fixées à chaque paire de bavettes 3 et celles-ci sont réparties verticalement avec un intervalle mutuel régulier Bien entendu, un nombre différent de sangles par paire de bavettes pourrait être prév u, par exemple quatre ou six.As shown in Figure 1, five straps 2 are attached to each pair of flaps 3 and these are distributed vertically with a regular mutual interval Of course, a different number of straps per pair of flaps could be provided, for example four or six.
Chaque paire de bavettes 3 constituent avec ses sangles 2 associées un ensemble déformable, dans une certaine mesure, par rapport aux axes verticaux matérialisés par les joncs 6 Toutefois, ces ensembles sont relativement solides. L'écartement entre les bavettes 3 constitutives d'une paire est choisi de manière à être légèrement supéπeur à la largeur d'un article à stocker. De plus, l'écartement entre les sangles qui se font face deux-à-deux est prévu, comme on le verra plus loin, de manière à être légèrement inférieur à la longueur totale des articles à stockerEach pair of flaps 3 constitute with its associated straps 2 a deformable assembly, to a certain extent, relative to the vertical axes materialized by the rods 6 However, these assemblies are relatively solid. The spacing between the flaps 3 constituting a pair is chosen so as to be slightly greater than the width of an article to be stored. In addition, the spacing between the straps which face each other in pairs is provided, as will be seen below, so as to be slightly less than the total length of the articles to be stored.
Nous allons maintenant expliquer, en référence notamment aux figures 1 et 2, la manière dont on utilise le dispositif selon l'invention, pour le stockage et transport d'éléments allongés à extrémités rabattues du même côté constitués par des pare-chocs 4 de véhicules automobiles.We will now explain, with particular reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the way in which the device according to the invention is used, for the storage and transport of elongated elements with folded ends on the same side constituted by vehicle bumpers 4 automobiles.
Il s'agit par exemple de pare-chocs qui ont été fabriqués et peints chez un sous-traitant et qui doivent être acheminés jusqu'à l'usine d'un constructeur automobile en vue de leur montage sur les véhicules.These are, for example, bumpers that have been manufactured and painted by a subcontractor and that must be sent to the factory of an automobile manufacturer for mounting on vehicles.
Chaque pare-chocs 4 a une forme générale de banane avec une partie intermédiaire allongée 40 et deux extrémités rabattues du même côté 41. On a identifié par la référence 42 les zones de raccordement de la partie intermédiaire 40 aux extrémités rabattues 41. Le dispositif selon l'invention est supposé vide de pare-chocs et en place sur le sol. Les pare-chocs sont supposés revêtus d'une peinturen, laquelle a eu le temps de sécher. Dans une première étape, un opérateur P se saisit d'un pare-chocs. Le geste naturel de prise de ce pare-chocs par l'opérateur P est illustré à la figure 2, ce qui signifie qu'il le saisit au niveau de sa partie intermédiaire 40, les extrémités rabattues 41 de ce dernier s'étendant horizontalement de chaque côté de l'opérateur. Dans une seconde étape, l'opérateur monte sur le caillebotis 140 et se déplace, dans le sens de la flèche f , jusqu'au fond de ce dispositif. Aucun obstacle ne vient contrarier le déplacement de l'opérateur, puisque chaque ensemble formé de deux bavettes 3 et de sangles 2 associées s'efface latéralement à son passage, comme le montre la figure 2, où un ensemble escamoté est représenté en traits interrompus. En plus de cette facilité de déplacement, il n'y a aucun risque que le pare-chocs ne s'accroche dans les sangles de certains ensembles et, en tout état de cause, ni le matériau des bavettes, ni celui des sangles n'est apte à abîmer le revêtement - en l'occurrence la peinture - qui recouvre le pare-chocs.Each bumper 4 has a general banana shape with an elongated intermediate part 40 and two ends folded down on the same side 41. The reference zones 42 have identified the connection zones of the intermediate part 40 with the folded ends 41. The device according to the invention is assumed to be empty of bumpers and in place on the ground. The bumpers are assumed to be coated with a paint, which has had time to dry. In a first step, an operator P grabs a bumper. The natural gesture of grip of this bumper by the operator P is illustrated in FIG. 2, which means that he grasps it at its intermediate part 40, the folded ends 41 of the latter extending horizontally from each side of the operator. In a second step, the operator climbs on the grating 140 and moves, in the direction of the arrow f, to the bottom of this device. No obstacle impedes the movement of the operator, since each assembly formed by two flaps 3 and associated straps 2 fades laterally as it passes, as shown in Figure 2, where a retracted assembly is shown in broken lines. In addition to this ease of movement, there is no risk that the bumper will catch on the straps of certain assemblies and, in any event, neither the material of the flaps, nor that of the straps is capable of damaging the coating - in this case the paint - that covers the bumper.
Quand l'opérateur se trouve en face de la dernière série de bavettes qui équipe le fond du dispositif, il relève le pare-chocs 4 de manière à présenter ses extrémités rabattues 41 vers le bas. Il positionne alors lesdites extrémités de manière à ce qu'elles s'engagent entre les bavettes 3 et les sangles 2 disposées au plus près du sol. Comme le montre la figure 3, le pare-chocs 4 prend appui sur la barre transversale 20 des sangles, au niveau de la zone de raccordement 42 de sa partie intermédiaire 40 à ses extrémités 41. Le pare-chocs se trouve en quelque sorte suspendu aux sangles, tandis que les bavettes entre lesquelles s'étendent ses extrémités, constituent des butées qui s'opposent à un éventuel déplacement latéral.When the operator is in front of the last series of flaps which equips the bottom of the device, he raises the bumper 4 so as to present its folded ends 41 downwards. It then positions said ends so that they engage between the flaps 3 and the straps 2 arranged closest to the ground. As shown in FIG. 3, the bumper 4 rests on the crossbar 20 of the straps, at the level of the connection zone 42 of its intermediate part 40 at its ends 41. The bumper is in a way suspended to the straps, while the flaps between which extend its ends, constitute stops which oppose any lateral movement.
L'opérateur procède de la même manière pour chacune des paires de sangles, en précisant qu'il commence toujours par positionner les pare-chocs en commençant par les sangles les plus basses.The operator proceeds in the same way for each pair of straps, specifying that he always starts by positioning the bumpers, starting with the lowest straps.
Le fait que les moyens de support des pare-chocs ne présentent aucun élément métallique fixe encombrant, il est possible de mettre en place un nombre plus élevé de pare-chocs par dispositif.The fact that the bumper support means do not have any bulky fixed metal element, it is possible to install a higher number of bumpers per device.
Du fait de la possibilité de déformation relative des ensembles formés par les sangles et leurs bavettes associées, les trépidations des camions qui transportent les dispositifs chargés de pare-chocs sont absorbées à la fois par les bavettes et les sangles, de sorte qu'il n'existe aucun risque que les pare-chocs soient abîmés.Due to the possibility of relative deformation of the assemblies formed by the straps and their associated flaps, the vibrations of the trucks which transport the devices loaded with bumpers are absorbed by both the flaps and the straps, so that it does not There is no risk of the bumpers being damaged.
A titre purement indicatif un dispositif conforme à l'invention présente les caractéristiques suivantes : - longueur : 2m40 ;For purely indicative purposes, a device according to the invention has the following characteristics: - length: 2.40 m;
- largeur : lm50 ;- width: lm50;
- hauteur : lm50 ; - nombre de sangles par paire de bavettes : 5 ;- height: lm50; - number of straps per pair of flaps: 5;
- nombre de paires de bavettes : 10 ;- number of pairs of flaps: 10;
- écartement entre deux sangles voisines : 25 cm.- distance between two neighboring straps: 25 cm.
Dans un tel dispositif, il est possible de stocker vingt-cinq pare-chocs et sa structure autoπse un gerbage de deux dispositifs l'un sur l'autre.In such a device, it is possible to store twenty-five bumpers and its structure autoπse a stacking of two devices one on the other.
Dans une forme de réalisation différente, les sangles pourraient être directement fixées et articulés sur les poteaux du dispositif. Par ailleurs, ces poteaux peuvent être remplacés par des plaques qui s'étendent verticalement tout le long du dispositif. Enfin, les plaques 50 peuvent être facilement démontées, de sorte que le châssis du dispositif peut être employé pour y stocker d'autres objetsIn a different embodiment, the straps could be directly fixed and articulated on the posts of the device. Furthermore, these posts can be replaced by plates which extend vertically all along the device. Finally, the plates 50 can be easily removed, so that the frame of the device can be used to store other objects there.
Bien que la présente descπption ait été faite en référence au stockage et au transport de pare-chocs, il peut être utilisé avec d'autres éléments allongés présentant des extrémités rabattues du même côté Although the present description has been made with reference to the storage and transport of bumpers, it can be used with other elongated elements having ends folded down on the same side.
