Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for articulating a tampon on a frame.
  • each buffer does not always position themselves correctly on the frame when they are brought to their closed position.
  • the articulation of each buffer is generally located outside the frame, thus leading to an attachment and a cantilevered articulation of each buffer.
  • the object of the present invention is to eliminate the above drawbacks of known articulation devices.
  • the invention provides a device for articulating a tampon on a frame by means of articulation axes of the tampon to the frame and which is characterized in that it comprises at least two ears provided under the tampon. one of which is provided with a lug, a tongue vertically integral with a wall of the frame and held between the two ears by a removable hinge pin passing through the ears and the tongue, the wall of the frame comprising a notch cooperating with the lug so that in the high opening position of the tampon the lug falls into the notch and locks the tampon in this position and that by lifting the tampon from its high opening position, the lug is released from the notch to allow the pad to be brought to its closed position.
  • the two ears each comprise a rounded angular part bearing on the aforementioned wall of the frame, in particular during the pivoting of the pad to its open position.
  • the notch is made both on an upper part for supporting the tongue and a part of the side wall of the aforementioned wall of the frame.
  • the frame includes a housing located behind the notch and constituting a clearance space for the lug.
  • the device comprises a second notch made on the top of the tongue and cooperating with a part of the tampon to participate with the first notch in locking the tampon in its high open position.
  • the aforementioned locking portion of the tampon comprises a substantially U-shaped opening in which the tongue engages so that the bottom edge of the opening rests in the notch of the tongue in the high opening position of the tampon.
  • the tongue has a hole for passing the hinge pin greater than the diameter of the latter and the two ears have holes for passing the hinge pin which are oblong and deformed.
  • the holes in the ears and the tongue cooperate so as to allow the tampon, when brought to its closed position, to always be plumb with the frame which receives it.
  • the upper and lateral parts of the aforementioned wall of the frame are integral with the peripheral side wall of the frame and have in cross section substantially the shape of an isosceles trapezoid with the upper part of the support wall of the tongue forming the small base of the trapezium. horizontal.
  • the ears also bear by their rounded angular parts on the support wall of the tongue during the pivoting of the tampon to its closed position to allow support elements of the tampon to come to be placed just above the edges. corresponding lower support of the frame.
  • the abovementioned support elements hold the tampon in its closed position so that the two ears are slightly spaced from the support wall of the tongue.
  • Figure 1 is a top view of two closure pads of an opening in a roadway and provided with articulation devices according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is an enlarged exploded view of a hinge device of the invention according to arrow II in FIG. 1.
  • Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional view along line III-III of Figure 1.
  • Figures 4 and 5 are sectional views of part of Figure 3 and showing the device of the invention respectively at a position for blocking a tampon in its high open position and an intermediate position for the front tampon bring it to the closed position.
  • Figure 6 shows the pad in its frame in an intermediate position at 45 ° to the opening or closing.
  • the device for closing an opening made for example in a roadway comprises a rectangular metal frame 1 fixed in the opening (not shown) of conjugate shape of the roadway and two buffers or lids 2 of complementary shapes , in this case triangular, connected to the frame 1 by a number of hinge pins 3 so as to occupy a folded position closing the opening or a high opening position thereof.
  • the invention is not limited to the rectangular shape of the frame 1 as well as that of each pad and the two articulated pads can be replaced by a single articulated pad of shape conjugated to the frame 1.
  • Each pad 2 comprises, integral with it, a certain number of holding feet 4 bearing on horizontal lower edges 5 integral with the peripheral side wall 6 of the frame 1 when the pad 2 occupies its closed position.
  • Each pad 2 can also include reinforcing ribs 2a, only one of which is shown.
  • the articulation device comprises a number of pairs of parallel ears 7 fixed under the pad 2 perpendicularly thereto, one of the ears 7 of each pair comprising a lug 8 secured to one side of the ear 7 by projecting from the pad 2 below the latter and situated substantially in the same plane as the ear 7.
  • the ears 7 comprising rounded angular parts 7a situated at their lower corners on the same side as the lug 8.
  • the device also comprises as many tongues 9 as there are pairs of ears 7.
  • Each tongue 9 is vertically integral both with the peripheral side wall 6 of the frame 1 and with a horizontal upper wall part 10 itself even integral with the side wall 6 perpendicular to the latter.
  • Each tongue 9 is housed between two corresponding ears 7 and fixed between them by the corresponding articulation axis 3 passing through two holes 11 respectively of the two ears 7 and a hole 12 drilled through the tongue 9.
  • Each axis d hinge 3 has a bent end and its opposite end comprising a bore 3a in which engages a cylindrical pin 13 so as to immobilize in translation the hinge pin 3 relative to the ears 7 while being removable by simple manual removal of the pin 13.
  • the hole 12 of the tongue 9 has a diameter greater than the diameter of the hinge pin 3 and the two holes 11 ears 7 each have a deformed oblong shape. The role of these holes will be explained later.
  • the upper wall part 10 is connected on each side to a side wall 14 which is itself connected to a lower edge 5 of the leg support 4. As shown, the upper walls 10 and side 14 have in cross section the shape of an isosceles trapezium whose small base is formed by the upper wall 10.
  • the device further comprises a notch 15 made both on the upper wall 10 and one of the side walls 14 and of sufficient size to allow passage of the lug 8 through it.
  • the tongue 9 also includes a notch 16 made on top of it.
  • the side wall 6 of the frame 1 comprises a certain number of housings 17 each located behind the notches 15 and 16 and allowing the movement of the corresponding lug 8 during the pivoting of the pad 2.
  • the pad 2 comprises several slots 18 substantially in the shape of a U of a number equal to the number of tabs 9 and cut through the wall of the pad 2 by opening at an edge thereof on the same side as the lug 8.
  • Each light 18 is located between two ears 7 above these and receives a tongue 9 so that in the high open position of the pad 2 the bottom edge 18a of the tongue 18 (base of the U thereof ) rests at this position in the notch 16.
  • FIG. 3 represents the pad 2 in the closed position of the opening delimited by the frame 1.
  • the pad 2 rests on the frame 1 by its feet 4 bearing on the lower edges 5 of the frame 1 so that the lower edges of the ears 7 are slightly spaced above the upper wall 10 extending on either side of the tongue 9.
  • Each lug 8 is partly housed in the housing 17.
  • the angular parts 7a rounded ears 7 come to bear on the upper wall 10 and each lug 8 can move freely relative to the frame 1 through the housing 17.
  • each lug 8 falls freely in its corresponding notch 15 and the bottom edge 18a of a lumen 18 abuts in the corresponding notch 16 of the tongue 9 so as to lock or block the buffer 2 in this position.
  • This is made possible by the deformed oblong shape of the holes 11 of each pair of ears 7 which allow the pad 2 to move downwards relative to the frame 1 at its position shown in FIG. 4.
  • holes 11 of the ears 7 and the hole 12 of each tongue 9 cooperate so as to allow the pad 2, when it is brought to its closed position, to always be in line with the frame 1 which receives it. These holes at the same time prevent any jamming of the buffer 2 during its movements.
  • FIG. 6 highlights the effect of the tilting ramp of the ears 7.
  • the device according to the invention is therefore arranged to prevent any untimely closing of open buffers, thus helping to effectively ensure the safety of users.
  • the articulated pads are always positioned correctly on the frame and, because the joints are inside the frame, it avoids a fixing and a cantilever joint of these pads.
