Definitions

  • the invention relates to a presentation and storage box for an electric tool, such as a mini-drill, which also constitutes a transport and autonomous supply box for this tool.
  • Power tools of this type are now in common use, for example in model making, decoration, restoration of objects, small mechanics, electronics, etc. They are generally presented and packaged in boxes or cases of the tamper-proof type, made of plastic, which can be reused after opening, for the storage of mini-tools and their accessories (drills, grindstones, cutters, pliers, keys, etc.). .). These mini-tools are equipped with an electric motor supplied with low voltage (for example 12 to 15 volts) by means of an electric transformer which must be connected to the mains (220 volts alternating in general).
  • mini-tools The conditions of use of the mini-tools are therefore quite similar to those of conventional tools of larger dimensions, since it is necessary to connect them to the mains and have their boxes or storage boxes nearby for changing accessories, whereas '' because of their very small dimensions and their great maneuverability
  • these mini-tools should be able to be used with less constraints than conventional tools.
  • the invention aims to provide a simple, effective and inexpensive solution to these problems, thanks to a particular design of the presentation and storage box of a mini-tool.
  • the invention therefore provides, for this purpose, a presentation and storage box for an electric tool, such as a mini-drill, comprising a tool storage compartment, presentation and storage means for accessories adaptable to this tool, such as for example drills, grindstones or the like, and a cover for closing said compartment, also covering the means for presenting and storing accessories, characterized in that it also constitutes a transport case and autonomous power supply of the tool and comprises a source of electrical energy such as a battery of rechargeable batteries or accumulators, housed in a compartment of said housing and connected by a connector to the power supply cord of the tool.
  • a source of electrical energy such as a battery of rechargeable batteries or accumulators
  • the housing according to the invention therefore allows the power tool to be used even if one is not near a mains connection socket. This results in great convenience in using this tool.
  • this housing comprises a suspension tab on one of its vertical faces.
  • the case can be hung on a pocket or on the user's belt.
  • the housing is of substantially parallelepiped shape
  • the means for presenting and storing the accessories comprise a transverse shelf, one side of which supports a sliding pull forming the clasp of the abovementioned closing cover.
  • This transverse shelf may include holes or notches in which the rods of the accessories are engaged, and / or other means allowing these accessories to be held in place.
  • the aforementioned cover is advantageously made of transparent material and is pivotally mounted on the upper face of the housing to close at least part of this upper face as well as part of the front face of the housing.
  • the lower part of the front face of the case can be closed by another cover pivotally mounted around the lower edge of this front face and retained in the closed position by the same clasp as the cover closing the upper part of the front face of the case. .
  • the compartment for receiving the electrical energy source is advantageously formed on the back of the housing and is closed by a removable or hinged cover.
  • a compact housing is thus obtained, which can be used for the presentation and packaging of the electric tool and its accessories, as well as for their transport and for supplying the tool with electric energy.
  • the housing 10 shown in the accompanying drawings is shaped general parallelepiped and is made of rigid plastic. It is more particularly intended to contain an electric mini-drill 12 and its accessories 14, such as drills, milling cutters, grindstones, keys, etc.
  • the mini-drill 12 is equipped with an electric motor capable of being connected by a power cord 16 to a source of low voltage electric energy (12 volts DC for example).
  • the housing 10 is divided by an internal partition 18, parallel to its two largest faces, into a front compartment 20 and a rear compartment 22.
  • the front compartment 20 is used for the presentation and storage of the mini-drill 12, of its accessories 14 and its power cord 16. It is delimited by the two vertical side walls 24, 25 and by the horizontal bottom wall 26 of the housing 10 as well as by an upper cover 28 and a lower cover 30.
  • the upper cover 28 is made of transparent plastic and comprises two perpendicular faces (29, 34) connected by a rounded portion (31), this cover 28 being pivotally mounted around a horizontal axis on the upper horizontal edge of the internal partition 18 of the housing 10 or in the vicinity of this upper horizontal edge, by means of tabs 32 in an arc located near the free edge of the face 34 of this cover. This allows a 135 ° opening of the cover and facilitates the gripping of the accessories 14.
  • the cover 28 makes it possible to close half of the upper face of the housing 10 and the upper half of its front face.
  • the lower cover 30 is pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis at the lower end of the front face of the housing 10, by means of small cylindrical rods received in bearing surfaces 36 formed on the horizontal lower edge of the cover 30.
  • the covers 28 and 30 are substantially contiguous at the level of a horizontal transverse shelf 38 forming a support for the accessories 14, attached to the internal vertical partition 18 and to the side wall 24 of the housing 10.
  • This shelf 38 comprises, along its front horizontal edge, a T flange 40 with vertical wings, on which is guided and retained a sliding zipper 42 forming a clasp of the covers 28 and 30.
  • the free transverse edge of the cover 30 comprises a cutout 44 parallel to the axis of rotation of the cover, formed from a lateral edge 46 of the cover and extending, over a length slightly shorter than that of the zipper 42, up to a projecting tab 48 extending the cover 30 and having an edge 50 at a bevel at its connection with the cutout 44, to cooperate with the oblique end face 52 of the zipper 42.
  • the free transverse edge of the upper cover 28 comprises a similar cutout 54 parallel to the axis of rotation of the cover extending over a length greater than that of the cutout 44 and connected by an edge 56 bevelled to a tab 58
  • the cutouts 44 and 54 of their free edges come to frame the pull tab 42, the oblique end of which 52 can engage on the bevelled edges 50 and 56 of the covers for the hold in the closed position.
  • the edges of the lugs 48 and 58 of the covers are applied one against the other substantially in the middle of the rim 40 of the transverse shelf 38, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the pull tab 42 can ensure three different positions:
  • the pull tab 42 has an internal boss suitable for indexing in recesses formed on the vertical wings of the rim 40 in correspondence with the three preceding positions. This also makes it possible to prevent untimely withdrawal of the pull tab 42 from the flange 40.
  • the tablet 38 ends at a distance from the side wall 25 of the housing 10 and defines therewith a free space for storing the mini-drill 12 in a vertical position. This storage is facilitated by horizontal cradles substantially in the form of semicircles, which are molded projecting from the internal partition 18 and from the internal face of the cover 30, as seen in 35 in FIG. 2, for maintaining the mini drill 12.
  • the horizontal shelf 38 comprises various means for supporting the accessories 14, such as for example openings or notches 60 formed on its free edge perpendicular to the large faces for receiving the sleeves of keys, and vertical conduits receiving the stems of the drills, grindstones and milling cutters intended to be mounted on mini-drills 12, these vertical conduits being formed by tubular cylinders res 62 molded on the lower face of the shelf 38, opening onto the upper face of the latter and closed at their lower end.
  • the accessories 14 such as for example openings or notches 60 formed on its free edge perpendicular to the large faces for receiving the sleeves of keys, and vertical conduits receiving the stems of the drills, grindstones and milling cutters intended to be mounted on mini-drills 12, these vertical conduits being formed by tubular cylinders res 62 molded on the lower face of the shelf 38, opening onto the upper face of the latter and closed at their lower end.
  • the rear compartment 22 of the housing 10 comprises conventional means for receiving and mounting several electric batteries 64, for example cylindrical batteries of 1.5 volts each, which are connected in series in the compartment 22 to deliver a DC voltage of 12 volts.
  • the terminals of this battery of batteries are connected by conductors to two connection plugs 66 which pass through the internal partition 18 of the housing 10 and open into the front compartment 20, to receive the connection pins 68 mounted at the ends of the two electrical wires of the cord 16 for supplying the mini-drill 12.
  • This cord which may have a certain length to facilitate the use of the mini-drill 12, finds sufficient space for its storage under the transverse shelf 38.
  • the rear compartment 22 of the housing 10 is closed by a removable cover 70, of the snap-on or snap-on type, and on the external face of which is fixed a tab 72 allowing the housing 10 to be hung on the edge of a pocket or on the user's belt.
  • the housing 10 is used both for the presentation and packaging of the mini-drill 12 and its accessories 14 for sale, as for their use and storage after use.
  • the pull tab 42 maintains the two covers 28 and 30 in the closed position. When it is displaced by sliding towards the outside on the rim 40 of the transverse shelf 38, it first allows the pivoting of the upper cover 28 and then, in the outermost position, the pivoting of the two covers.
  • the electric power source equipping this box can, moreover, be constituted by rechargeable accumulators, connected to a charger connected to the sector outside the periods of use of the mini-drills.
