Afin de rendre plus concret l'objet de l'invention, on le décrit maintenant d'une manière non limitative aux figures des dessins. In order to make the object of the invention more concrete, it is now described in a nonlimiting manner in the figures of the drawings.
Le dispositif d'assemblage et de raccordement selon l'invention est établi pour autoriser le positionnement et l'orientation angulaire réglable de panneaux, cloisons et toutes structures de liaison, ainsi que pour permettre un montage rapide, aisé, tout en évitant les risques d'un démontage intempestif. Le dispositif est ainsi conçu avec une embase (1) d'appui au sol ou en étant disposé à l'extrémité d'un piètement (2) de hauteur variable, ladite embase recevant à partir de son extrémité supérieure et en prolongement dans son plan externe transversal au moins un et généralement plusieurs éléments tubulaires maies ( 3 ) parallèles et verticaux, espacés sensiblement les uns des autres pour permettre l'engagement, l'ajustement libre, le centrage, le maintien et l'orientation d'au moins un et généralement plusieurs éléments tubulaires femelles (4) associés à des panneaux (5), cloisons, et autres, structures susceptibles d'être disposés les uns par rapport aux autres en alignement ou angulairement et dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe du piètement support ou de l'embase. Ainsi qu'illustré les tubes mâles sont insérés et maintenus à leur partie inférieure dans l'épaisseur de l'embase. La hauteur des éléments femelles (4) est avantageusement établie pour correspondre à celle des éléments mâles ( 3 ). L'assemblage est ainsi réalisé par simple ajustement et coulissement. Les éléments femelles rapportés viennent par ailleurs en appui et positionnement sur la face transversale supérieure de l'embase. The assembly and connection device according to the invention is established to allow the positioning and the adjustable angular orientation of panels, partitions and all connecting structures, as well as to allow rapid, easy assembly, while avoiding the risks of '' untimely disassembly. The device is thus designed with a base (1) for supporting the ground or by being disposed at the end of a base (2) of variable height, said base receiving from its upper end and extending in its plane. transverse external at least one and generally several parallel tubular and vertical tubular elements (3), spaced substantially apart from each other to allow engagement, free adjustment, centering, holding and orientation of at least one and generally several female tubular elements (4) associated with panels (5), partitions, and the like, structures capable of being arranged in relation to each other in alignment or angularly and in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the support base or of the base. As illustrated, the male tubes are inserted and held at their bottom in the thickness of the base. The height of the female elements (4) is advantageously established to correspond to that of the male elements (3). The assembly is thus carried out by simple adjustment and sliding. The added female elements also come to bear and position on the upper transverse face of the base.
En outre pour assurer le blocage de l'assemblage et éviter le désengagement inopiné de l'un des éléments tubulaires de l'assemblage ainsi réalisé, on utilise un moyen de blocage et de verrouillage (6) qui maintient en position les panneaux assemblés et évite leur dégagement. Ce moyen est établi sous la forme d'un couvercle comprenant une coupelle (6.1) avantageusement de forme similaire à celle du piètement ou de l'embase pour assurer une homogénéité de présentation. Cette coupelle est ellemême agencée avec une ou des broches (12.2) orientées vers le bas et susceptibles de s'introduire dans les alésages des différents éléments tubulaires mâles précités. On obtient ainsi une liaison ferme de l'assemblage réalisé. Lesdites broches sont avantageusement en nombre égal au nombre d'éléments tubulaires mâles et sont disposés parallèles et espacées pour être convenablement introduites. In addition, to ensure the blocking of the assembly and to prevent the unexpected disengagement of one of the tubular elements of the assembly thus produced, a blocking and locking means (6) is used which keeps the assembled panels in position and avoids their release. This means is established in the form of a cover comprising a cup (6.1) advantageously similar in shape to that of the base or of the base to ensure uniformity of presentation. This cup is itself arranged with one or more pins (12.2) oriented downwards and capable of entering the bores of the various male tubular elements mentioned above. A firm bond is thus obtained from the assembly produced. Said pins are advantageously in number equal to the number of male tubular elements and are arranged parallel and spaced to be suitably introduced.
Par ailleurs, ladite coupelle peut être agencée avec un moyen complémentaire de verrouillage du type goupille ou autre reliée par chaînette et susceptible de s'engager dans une ouverture aménagée à cet effet dans l'embase. Furthermore, said cup can be arranged with additional locking means of the pin or other type connected by chain and capable of engaging in an opening provided for this purpose in the base.
Les éléments tubulaires femelles (4) associés à des panneaux, ou éléments de structures ou autres peuvent être orientés angulairement très librementselon les besoins en fonction des formes et profils à obtenir. On a par exemple illustré aux figures 6 et 7 une disposition rectangulaire ou octogonale d'éléments de structure. D'autres formes peuvent être données en étant reliées pour définir un ensemble fermé ou non. The female tubular elements (4) associated with panels, or structural elements or the like can be angularly oriented very freely according to the needs as a function of the shapes and profiles to be obtained. FIGS. 6 and 7 have for example illustrated a rectangular or octagonal arrangement of structural elements. Other forms can be given by being linked to define a closed or not assembly.
Selon un avantage important de l'invention, il est tout à fait possible pour l'opérateur d'orienter l'embase en fonction de l'alignement ou angulation donnée aux différents panneaux. According to an important advantage of the invention, it is entirely possible for the operator to orient the base according to the alignment or angulation given to the various panels.
Dans l'exemple de la figure 3 on voit par exemple que les panneaux ou éléments de structure sont en alignement, alors que selon la figure 4 ils sont, disposés à partir de tubes consécutifs dans un plan perpendiculaire par exemple, In the example of FIG. 3 we see for example that the panels or structural elements are in alignment, while according to FIG. 4 they are, arranged from consecutive tubes in a perpendicular plane for example,
II est bien évident que l'embase peut présenter un nombre variable d'éléments tubulaires mâles en fonction des besoins de construction. It is obvious that the base can have a variable number of male tubular elements according to construction needs.
Si l'on veut par ailleurs compléter l'assemblage, il est toujours possible d'utiliser des barres entretoises qui seront adaptées et fixées angulairement dans des parties d'éléments de structures consécutives. If you also want to complete the assembly, it is always possible to use spacer bars which will be adapted and fixed angularly in parts of elements of consecutive structures.
Les avantages ressortent bien de l'invention. On souligne, la simplicité du dispositif, de son montage, les multiples possibilités offertes dans la présentation donnée aux éléments de structure et panneaux en général. The advantages emerge clearly from the invention. It is emphasized, the simplicity of the device, of its mounting, the multiple possibilities offered in the presentation given to the structural elements and panels in general.
