Description

L'invention se rapporte à la fixation, dans le sol, de poteaux ou de piquets, plus particulièrement, mais non exclusivement, en vue de réalisation de clôtures.The invention relates to the fixing, in the ground, of posts or stakes, more particularly, but not exclusively, for the purpose of making fences.

Les poteaux de clôtures, en fer ou en béton, sont traditionnellement mis en place au centre d'un trou, enfoncés légèrement pour les faire tenir à l'aplomb et entourés d'un dé de béton coulé, que l'on tasse pour que sa surface se trouve un peu en-dessous du niveau du sol. Lorsque le béton est pris, on nivelle avec de la terre. Ces diverses opérations sont relativement longues (en particulier, la prise du béton). La fabrication du béton exige l'utilisation d'eau (qui n'est pas toujours disponible sur le terrain) et de matériaux pondéreux qu'il faut souvent transporter avec une brouette sur une certaine distance, sur un terrain dont la configuration rend parfois ce transport malaisé. La terre résultant de l'excavation doit être dispersée sur le sol. Si le terrain est gazonné, le gazon est évidemment endommagé.Fence posts, made of iron or concrete, are traditionally placed in the center of a hole, pressed slightly to keep them plumb and surrounded by a die of poured concrete, which is packed so that its surface is a little below ground level. When the concrete is set, it is leveled with soil. These various operations are relatively long (in particular, setting the concrete). The manufacture of concrete requires the use of water (which is not always available on the ground) and heavy materials which often have to be transported with a wheelbarrow over a certain distance, on a ground whose configuration sometimes makes it awkward transportation. The earth resulting from the excavation must be dispersed on the ground. If the ground is grassy, the grass is obviously damaged.

L'invention supprime ces inconvénients et permet la pose facile et rapide de poteaux ou de piquets de taille quelconque, grâce à l'utilisation d'une cheville.The invention eliminates these drawbacks and allows the quick and easy installation of posts or stakes of any size, thanks to the use of a dowel.

Suivant l'invention, cette cheville se compose d'une pièce rigide conformée de façon à pouvoir être enfoncée dans le sol pour constituer un ancrage et à former un logement destiné à recevoir la base du poteau ou du piquet.According to the invention, this dowel consists of a rigid piece shaped so that it can be driven into the ground to form an anchor and to form a housing intended to receive the base of the post or stake.

Suivant un mode d'exécution particulièrement simple, ladite pièce est formée de deux plaques métalliques comportant chacune un bord replié soudé à l'autre plaque, de façon à dêlimi - ter une gaine centrale qui constitue ledit logement.According to a particularly simple embodiment, said part is formed of two metal plates each having a folded edge welded to the other plate, so as to delimit a central sheath which constitutes said housing.

L'invention a encore pour objet un procédé de fixation d'un poteau ou d'un piquet faisant application d'une telle cheville et un outil d'enfoncement et de guidage servant à la mise en oeuvre de ce procédé.The invention also relates to a method of fixing a post or a stake using such a dowel and a driving and guiding tool used for the implementation of this method.

D'autres particularités, ainsi que les avantages de l'invention apparaîtront clairement à la lumière de la description ci-après:Other particularities, as well as the advantages of the invention will become clear in the light of the description below:

Au dessin annexé :

  • Les figures 1 à 3 représentent, respectivement en perspective en plan et de profil, une cheville conforme à un mode d'exécution préféré de l'invention ;
  • Les figures 4 à 7 représentent des variantes d'exécution illustrées de profil ;
  • La figure 8 représente un outil manuel d'enfoncement de cette cheville ;
  • La figure 9 représente un outil destiné à effectuer cette opération en coopération avec un vérin hydraulique ou analogue, et
  • La figure 10 représente une variante en deux pièces non soudées mais qui, emboîtées l'une dans l'autre, forment la cheville complète.
In the attached drawing:
  • Figures 1 to 3 show, respectively in perspective in plan and in profile, a dowel according to a preferred embodiment of the invention;
  • Figures 4 to 7 show alternative embodiments illustrated in profile;
  • FIG. 8 represents a manual tool for driving this pin;
  • FIG. 9 represents a tool intended to carry out this operation in cooperation with a hydraulic cylinder or the like, and
  • FIG. 10 represents a variant in two pieces which are not welded but which, fitted one inside the other, form the complete dowel.

Aux figures 1 à 3 on a représenté deux plaques métalliques parallèles 1 et 2, munies chacune d'un bord replié deux fois à angle droit, 11 et 21 respectivement. Chaque bord replié est soudé sur la surface de l'autre plaque, et la disposition est telle que les plaques délimitent un espace central parallélépipédique 3. Cet espace constitue une gaine dont les dimensions sont très légèrement supérieures aux côtés extérieurs de la section d'un poteau P à fixer. On voit, par ailleurs, que le tord inférieur de chaque plaque comporte un coin coupé, qui a pour effet de chasser les cailloux petits et moyens lors de l'enfoncement et de faciliter ce dernier.In Figures 1 to 3 there are shown two parallel metal plates 1 and 2, each provided with an edge folded twice at right angles, 11 and 21 respectively. Each folded edge is welded to the surface of the other plate, and the arrangement is such that the plates delimit a central parallelepi space pedic 3. This space constitutes a sheath whose dimensions are very slightly greater than the outside sides of the section of a post P to be fixed. It can be seen, moreover, that the lower twist of each plate has a cut corner, which has the effect of driving out small and medium pebbles during insertion and of facilitating the latter.

A titre d'exemple, pour un poteau constitué par un fer de section en T de 40 x 40 mm, on pourra utiliser une cheville de 50 cm de haut s'inscrivant dans un cercle de 50 cm de diamètre, et formant une gaine de 41 mm de côté.For example, for a post consisting of an iron with a T-shaped section of 40 x 40 mm, one could use a dowel 50 cm high, inscribed in a circle 50 cm in diameter, and forming a sheath of 41 mm side.

La figure 4 représente une variante d'exécution à trois plaques 4, 5 et 6 formant un fourreau de section triangulaire 7. Dans la variante à quatre plaques en croix de la figure 5, les plaques 8 et 9 sont parallèles entre elles et perpendiculaires aux plaques 10 et 11.FIG. 4 represents an alternative embodiment with three plates 4, 5 and 6 forming a sheath of triangular section 7. In the alternative with four cross plates of FIG. 5, the plates 8 and 9 are mutually parallel and perpendicular to the plates 10 and 11.

La variante de la figure 6 ne diffère du mode d'exécution des figures 1 à 3 que par le fait que les bords extérieurs des deux plaques 12 - 13 sont repliés deux fois, comme les bords intérieurs. Cette forme facilite le découpage sans chute à partir d'une bande de tôle. On notera que la forme en fer de pelle des modes d'exécution des figures 1 à 3 et 6 aboutit à une réalisation particulièrement économique, très rigide à l'enfoncement et avec empilage facile.The variant of FIG. 6 differs from the embodiment of FIGS. 1 to 3 only in that the outer edges of the two plates 12 - 13 are folded twice, like the inner edges. This shape facilitates cutting without falling from a strip of sheet metal. It will be noted that the shovel-shaped shape of the embodiments of FIGS. 1 to 3 and 6 results in a particularly economical embodiment, very rigid when inserted and with easy stacking.

Dans la variante de la figure 7, une pièce 14 à profil en W est emboutie en 141 pour former deux logements verticaux : ceux-ci pourraient, en variante, être obtenus au moyen de pièces rapportées.In the variant of FIG. 7, a part 14 with a W profile is stamped at 14 1 to form two vertical housings: these could, as a variant, be obtained by means of attached parts.

La figure 8 illustre l'opération d'enfoncement. Dans un premier temps, la cheville C, représentée très schématiquement, est posée sur le sol. Dans un second temps, un faux piquet 15 est introduit dans la gaine de la cheville sur une longueur légèrement supérieure à la hauteur h de la cheville de façon à pénétrer légèrement dans le sol. Dans un troisième temps, on exerce des chocs sur la cheville à l'aide d'un manchon métallique 16 qui coulisse sur la tige 15 et dont la base appuie sur une rondelle 17 solidaire de la tige 15 ; lorsqu'on a enfoncé complètement la cheville dans le sol (position figurée en pointillé) on retire le faux piquet et on introduit le poteau dans la gaine.Figure 8 illustrates the driving operation. First, the pin C, shown very schematically, is placed on the ground. In a second step, a false stake 15 is introduced into the ankle sheath over a length slightly greater than the height h of the ankle so as to penetrate slightly into the ground. Thirdly, we exercise impacts on the ankle using a metal sleeve 16 which slides on the rod 15 and the base of which rests on a washer 17 integral with the rod 15; when the ankle has been fully inserted into the ground (position shown in dotted lines) the false stake is removed and the post is inserted into the sheath.

Le poteau est maintenu en place par les fils de la clôture ou un léger sertissage en haut du fourreau et grâce à la pénétration de sa base dans le sol au-delà de la cheville. Le sol reste intact et propre.The post is held in place by the wires of the fence or a light crimping at the top of the sheath and thanks to the penetration of its base into the ground beyond the ankle. The floor remains intact and clean.

Le manchon 16 est muni de poignées 161 qui permettent sa manoeuvre. La rondelle 17 comporte une surface supérieure 171 qui supporte les chocs du manchon 16, et une surface inférieure ayant une partie périphérique 172 qui prend appui sur la cheville et une partie centrale creuse 173. La partie 172 préserve la cheville d'un éventuel écrasement, tandis que le creux 173 préserve la gaine de la cheville d'un sertissage qui empêcherait la mise en place ultérieure du poteau ou du piquet. La partie basse 151 de la tige 15 en s'introduisant dans ladite gaine, empêche la terre d'y pénétrer et facilite le guidage de la cheville.The sleeve 16 is provided with handles 161 which allow it to be maneuvered. The washer 17 has an upper surface 171 which supports the shocks of the sleeve 16, and a lower surface having a peripheral part 172 which bears on the ankle and a hollow central part 173. The part 172 preserves the ankle from possible crushing, while the recess 173 preserves the ankle sheath from a crimping which would prevent the subsequent placement of the post or stake. The lower part 151 of the rod 15 by being introduced into said sheath, prevents the earth from entering it and facilitates the guiding of the pin.

Dans la variante de la figure 9, la partie haute de la tige du faux piquet est tronquée et n'est pas munie d'un manchon d'enfoncement. Elle se réduit à une tête 15a destinée à l'engagement du piston p d'un vérin hydraulique V, ou de tout autre dispositif d'enfoncement mécanique.In the variant of Figure 9, the upper part of the rod of the false stake is truncated and is not provided with a driving sleeve. It is reduced to a head 15a intended for the engagement of the piston p of a hydraulic cylinder V, or of any other mechanical driving device.

Bien entendu, les chevilles que l'on vient de décrire peuvent être réalisées en vue de recevoir des poteaux ou des piquets de dimensions, de section et de nature quelconques, et comporter des plaques ou ailettes en nombre différent ou de formes différentes. Si ces chevilles sont destinées à pénétrer dans un sol très dur, on pourra même remplacer les ailettes par une pièce ayant une forme mieux appropriée à la pénétration, par exemple, hélicoïdale, à condition, bien entendu, que cette pièce forme une gaine ouverte à une extrémité au moins. L'enfoncement pourra alors s'effectuer en introduisant dans la gaine une clé permettant de visser la chev.ille dans le sol.Of course, the pins which have just been described can be produced in order to receive poles or stakes of any size, section and nature, and include plates or fins in different numbers or in different shapes. If these pins are intended to penetrate very hard soil, we can even replace the fins with a part having a shape more suitable for penetration, for example, helical, provided, of course, that this part forms a sheath open to at least one end. The insertion can then be carried out by inserting into the sheath a key allowing the screw to be screwed into the ground.
