Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a line plotter of the type which is used in particular for tracing the lines of sports fields, roads, etc.
  • Known tracers generally consist of a chassis on which is mounted a reservoir comprising a lower orifice connected to a dispersion nozzle.
  • the paint is prepared by mixing the paint itself with a solvent. Once the paint is prepared, fill the tank and close it. Then put the upper part of the pressure tank to allow the paint to flow and its diffusion through the dispersion nozzle and thus allow tracing. This pressurization is done by placing the tank in communication with an air tank.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a line plotter which solves all of the problems mentioned above.
  • a tracer according to the invention is remarkable in that it comprises a pressurized air reservoir and a bottle which contains paint, said bottle being removably mounted on said chassis, the connection of the bottle to the outlet of the tank being provided by a removable system and said bottle carrying a valve system on which is mounted a diffuser.
  • the bottle being removable, it is possible to envisage different tracings using different paints with a single tracer. Note that the storage of paint bottles can be done independently of the tracer. Furthermore, the diffuser being mounted on the valve system of the bottle itself carried by the bottle containing the paint, it happens to be the only part in contact with the paint during the tracing and, therefore, it is the only part to be cleaned after tracing.
  • the line plotter shown in FIG. 1 comprises a frame consisting of a longitudinal bar 1 at the front end of which is mounted a wheel 2 and at the rear end of which is mounted a transverse beam 3. At each end of the transverse beam 3, is mounted a wheel 4, of which only the background one has been traced in FIG. 1.
  • a vertical beam 5 On the rear part of the longitudinal bar 1, in front of the transverse beam 3, is mounted a vertical beam 5 on which are fixed bars 6 receiving handles 7 and thus forming a handlebar.
  • the transverse beam 3 is used as a tank for pressurized air.
  • a pipe 8 has one end which is connected to this reservoir 3 and the other end which is connected, by forming a "T", to another pipe 9.
  • a first branch of the "T” is connected to a non-return valve 10 itself connected to an air inlet 11.
  • the second branch of the "T” is connected to the inlet of a pressure reducer 12, the outlet of which is connected, by means of a flexible pipe 13, via from a tap 14, to a bottle 15 intended to contain paint.
  • the regulator 12 is provided with an adjustment member 12a and a pressure gauge 12b indicating the pressure downstream from the regulator 12 in the pipe 13 and consequently in the bottle 15.
  • connection of the bottle 15 with the flexible pipe 13 is ensured by a removable system, for example a screw system.
  • the bottle 15 is mounted, by means of a flange 16, to slide on a support 17 in the form of a square itself mounted on the beam 5.
  • nozzle 22 In its lower part (see insert A), it comprises a neck 20 on which is crimped a valve system 21 controlled by a nozzle 22.
  • the nozzle 22 is slidably mounted longitudinally relative to the body of the bottle 15. When a longitudinal pressure is exerted on the nozzle 22, the valve of the system 21 is open while it is closed in the opposite case, that is to say at rest.
  • a diffuser 23 is in abutment at the end of the end piece 22 and has a shoulder 24 resting on the upper surface of the support 17.
  • the diffuser 23 is easily removable.
  • a spring 25 is provided between the bottle 15 and the support 17 so that at rest, there is no pressure exerted on the nozzle 22, the valve of the system 21 then being closed.
  • the support 17 is mounted so that it can slide vertically on the frame 1, this in order to be able to adjust the distance between the diffuser 23 and the ground and, consequently, to adjust the width of the drawn lines.
  • the diffuser 23 has a paint evacuation channel at its outlet which can be circular to form a swirl jet or which can be rectangular to form a triangular flat jet.
  • the paint used can be a paint in an aqueous medium or a paint in a solvent medium.
  • a lever 30 pivotally mounted on the support 17 is provided for, under the control of a handle 31, exert vertical pressure on the bottle 15, which has the effect of sliding it in its support 17 against the spring 25. This pressure is exerted by reaction on the nozzle 22 and the valve of the system 21 then opens.
  • a spring 32 is provided to return the lever 30 to its rest position.
  • the operation of the plotter is as follows.
  • the reservoir 3 is firstly filled with pressurized air, for example at a pressure of 6 bars, by means of an inflator connected to the inlet 11.
  • a bottle 15 is connected to the end of the pipe 13 and is placed in its support 17.
  • the pressure in the bottle 15 is adjusted to a value which is lower than the pressure in the tank 3, for example 3 bars.
  • the value of this pressure is indicated on the pressure gauge 12b. It must also be adjusted according to the characteristics of the line drawn and the forward speed of the user.
  • the bottle 15 is made to slide, which has the effect of opening the valve of its system 21.
  • the pressure prevailing in the bottle 15 has the effect of spraying painting by the diffuser 23.
  • the pressure in the bottle 15 is constant during the tracing, whatever its filling state and whatever the pressure which reigns in the tank 3, as soon as it is higher than the pressure in bottle 15.
  • Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of a tracer according to the invention.
  • the same elements as those which are already present on the plotter of the previous embodiment bear the same references. This is particularly the case for the chassis 1, the reservoir 3, the air supply system 8 to 13, the bottle 15 and the support 17.
  • the bottle 15 While in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the bottle 15 is designed to be able to slide longitudinally relative to the chassis 1 on the support 17, in the second embodiment, it is fixed relative to the chassis 1 and is held in place on the support 17 by means, for example , of a necklace 40.
  • the bottle 15 is provided, on its neck 20, with a collar 41 which, when it is in place on the support 17, rests on the lower surface of the support 17.
  • the collar 41 acts as a stop axial.
  • the bottle 15 is provided with a valve system 21 with a nozzle provided with a diffuser 23 which, by sliding axially relative to the body of the bottle 15, allows the paint it contains to escape in the form of a jet.
  • a lever 42 is provided, substantially at its center, with a hole 42a through which the diffuser 23 passes.
  • a pivot 43 is provided which allows the lever 42 to pivot about an axis normal to the axis of the bottle 15 and, at its other end, means for receiving one end of a control cable 44 connected, at its other end, to the control lever 31.
  • a spring 45 is provided to return the lever 42 in its rest position in which it does not press on the diffuser 23.
  • a cover 46 can also be mounted on the support 17 in order to protect the diffuser 23, in particular from the wind which can disturb the spray of paint escaping therefrom.
