Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an articulated member comprising a wall treatment tool of a structure, in particular a tunnel wall washing device, and a vehicle for treating walls of a structure comprising one or, preferably, many of these articulated members. It has applications in the field of maintenance of road works or other and the manufacture of machinery for this maintenance.
  • Wall cleaning machines are known.
  • articulated arms carrying at their ends washing means are implemented.
  • These arms are of the sliding / telescopic type for a linear displacement and / or pivot type type between their ends for flexion / extension. This results in a large footprint, especially when the arms are returned to their rest position / storage. This congestion has the effect of reducing the carrying capacity of the machines because a significant volume must be occupied by the arms at rest.
  • the cantilever and / or the distance between the machine and the worn washing means when the arms are deployed and operational, the vibrations or oscillations of the machine are greatly amplified and instabilities can also occur due to the necessary play of the joints.
  • the intrinsic complexity of the arm controls in particular for the arms controlled in flexion / extension, is increased if it is desired to follow the walls correctly when moving the machine. If the orders are handled by a human operator, the latter must pay close and continuous attention to this monitoring and the speed of cleaning must be reduced to take account of the human capacities. In the case of more or less automated commands, the algorithms they use become complex and parasitic phenomena can appear.
  • the present invention proposes the use of a pantograph within an articulated limb that can be retracted or deployed and carrying a tool for treating the surface of a wall of a structure and, in particular, carrying a wall washing member for a treatment which is a wash.
  • the pantograph is a known model and used in the field of railways for current sensing to simplify the realization of the articulated limb. Thanks to the pantograph, the size of the member in the retracted state is minimal and, in the deployed state, the member is more stable and better controllable. Indeed, the end of the pantograph which is controlled by a single cylinder system (s), moves in a plane, which simplifies the control of the positioning of the tool unlike conventional arm systems, including individually controlled, including the ends of the arms follow complex curves.
  • the invention relates to an articulated member comprising a tool for treating walls of a structure, said member being constituted over its length of arms mounted at least in series and articulated together to allow the member to retract or to deploy, said member having, firstly, a proximal end provided with means for mounting it on a vehicle adapted to move along said structure and, secondly, a distal end carrying the tool.
  • At least two arms form a pantograph whose folding and unfolding movements are controlled by at least one double-acting cylinder to cause a translation of the tool.
  • the articulated limb comprises at least one pantograph-type translational member for moving the end, distal side of said translational member, along a determined translational plane, between a folded position and unfolded positions of said translational member by virtue of one or more double acting cylinders.
  • the invention in the context of a member with a pantograph Z, the invention relates to an articulated member comprising a tool for the treatment of walls of a structure, said member being constituted over its length of arms mounted at least in series and articulated between they allow the limb to retract or unfold, said limb having, on the one hand, a proximal end provided with means for mounting it on a vehicle adapted to move along said work and, on the other hand, a at the distal end carrying the tool, at least two of the arms forming a pantograph with two Z-type articulated arms consisting, on the one hand, of a lower main arm and its lower arm respectively, and, on the other hand, of an upper main arm and its upper forearm, the lower main arm and its lower lower arm being articulated to one of their two respective ends to the same support, said Z pantograph comprises at least one double effect jack extended (s) between the support and the lower arm-arm and is configured so that, during its movements of folding and unfolding, its distal end is translated along
  • the lower main arm, the lower arm and the upper main arm are perforated metal plates and the upper arm is made of two rods.
  • the articulated member has two stages in series of pantographs, the pantographs of the floors being of the same type Z or of different types, at least one of which is Z-type, the others being diamond-shaped types or with arms crossed in scissors.
  • the invention also relates to a vehicle for treating the walls of a structure, such as it comprises at least one hinged member according to the invention and at least one tilting support for hinged member (s) and the proximal extremity of the member is attached to the vehicle via said tilting support, the tilting support rotating perpendicular to a tilting axis parallel to the direction of movement of the vehicle and for moving the tool in a scanning plane perpendicular to the direction for moving the vehicle, the same tilting support that can receive one or more articulated members, and in the case where the same tilting support receives several articulated members, said hinged members are fixed on the tilting support in separate angular positions around the axis tipping.
  • pantographs 1a ', 1b' and 1c 'of different structures are shown, the structures / principles of which can be taken up for the realization of the articulated pantograph member of the invention.

  • An actuator (not shown) makes it possible to deploy or fold the pantograph. Thanks to the arrangements and joints between the arms, the plate 20 can move in vertical translation when the pantograph folds or unfolds.
  • the schematized pantograph 1b ' is of type Z.
  • the pantograph Z 1b' rests on a frame 21 'on which are articulated, on the one hand, a lower arm 12' and, on the other hand, a counter-arm lower or lower connecting rod 15 '.

  • a Z-type pantograph is used and, in a simplified embodiment, a pantograph of the type used for current sensing on the electric locomotives and modified for the present application and for which a long time is required. experience is available.
  • the metal pantographs and not just tubes were used for the Z pantograph arms.
  • the articulated members with washing members are mounted on a truck-type motor vehicle 10 and, more particularly, on a rear chassis of a semitrailer.
  • the articulated members with washing members are mounted on a chassis which is removable from the vehicle 10, that is to say that the chassis can be mounted or removed from the vehicle.
  • the articulated members 2a-2h are all deployed so that the washing bodies 3 of the rotating roller type (the means for spraying water and / or washing substance are not shown to simplify the figures) can be applied to the wall of the tunnel 11 covering their respective paths so that a given arcuate surface of the wall is washed over the entire arc in a single pass and avoiding leaving unwashed strips in said arc.

  • access to the platform preferably constituted by a removable chassis of the vehicle and carrying the articulated members can be secured by preventing access or by blocking any member control, or even the movement of the vehicle in case of presence human. It is indeed better to avoid that the retraction of a member, see the retraction of an arm does not come to hurt a person present on the platform of the vehicle.
  • Figures 4a , 4b and 5 make it possible to better distinguish the articulated members 2f, 2g, 2h and their common rocking support 4 as well as the other organs that are useful for washing and in particular the liquid washing reserve 6.

  • the term "backward" means that the washing member is in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the washing vehicle so as not to withstand the obstacle encountered during the advance of the vehicle.
  • the retraction of the retractable arm is to the rear, in the opposite direction of the movement of the vehicle carrying the articulated member.
  • the retraction is active in that when obstacle sensors have detected an obstacle, they control the cylinders 14 of the retractable arm to cause the retraction.
