Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un panneau d'affichage avec pied, et notamment un panneau d'affichage publicitaire.The present invention relates to a panel display with foot, and in particular a panel advertising display.
Un panneau d'affichage de ce type est décrit
dans le brevet français FR 2 638 - 008 au nom de la
Demanderesse. Il comporte un ou plusieurs pieds
constitués de poteaux verticaux, de forme tubulaire et à
section transversale carrée.A display panel of this type is described
in
L'ossature du panneau, sur laquelle est positionnée l'affiche, comporte au moins une poutre horizontale, laquelle est fixée sur les pieds par un organe de fixation. Dans le brevet précité, l'organe de fixation comprend un collier fendu avec des pattes de serrage permettant la fixation du collier sur la poutre horizontale, et un embout emboíté dans le poteau vertical formant pied.The frame of the panel, on which is positioned the poster, has at least one beam horizontal, which is fixed to the feet by a fixing member. In the aforementioned patent, the attachment includes a split collar with lugs tightening allowing the fixing of the collar on the beam horizontal, and a nozzle fitted into the post vertical forming foot.
Cependant, ce type de panneaux présente quelques inconvénients. En effet, il est nécessaire de prévoir, outre les pieds, un habillage destiné à cacher et à donner du volume aux poteaux verticaux, pour respecter les proportions esthétiques du pied et du panneau. Le temps de montage de l'ensemble de l'ossature et de l'habillage est donc relativement long.However, this type of panel has some disadvantages. Indeed, it is necessary to provide, in addition to the feet, a covering intended to hide and give volume to the vertical posts, to respect the aesthetic proportions of the foot and the panel. The assembly time of the entire frame and the dressing is therefore relatively long.
En outre, cet habillage est souvent fragile et délicat à ajuster. Il est de ce fait peu résistant aux actes de vandalisme et chocs divers.In addition, this covering is often fragile and delicate to adjust. It is therefore not very resistant to acts of vandalism and various shocks.
Lorsque le panneau d'affichage comporte au moins deux poteaux verticaux, il est nécessaire lors du montage, d'aligner rigoureusement les colliers de serrage pour engager la traverse.When the display panel has at least two vertical posts, it is necessary when mounting, rigorously align the clamps tightening to engage the crosspiece.
La présente invention a pour but de résoudre les inconvénients précités et de proposer un panneau d'affichage de montage simplifié et de fabrication moins coûteuse. The object of the present invention is to resolve the aforementioned drawbacks and to propose a panel simplified assembly and manufacturing display less expensive.
Le panneau d'affichage visé par l'invention comporte des moyens formant pied et une ossature comprenant au moins une poutre horizontale.The display panel targeted by the invention includes foot means and a frame comprising at least one horizontal beam.
Selon l'invention, les moyens formant pied sont constitués d'un unique profilé tubulaire, le profilé tubulaire comportant un organe de fixation adapté à fixer la poutre horizontale sur le profilé tubulaire, et une section transversale du profilé tubulaire comportant une dimension, dans une direction parallèle à la poutre horizontale, comprise entre un dixième et un tiers de la longueur de la poutre horizontale.According to the invention, the foot means are consist of a single tubular profile, the profile tubular comprising a fixing member adapted to fix the horizontal beam on the tubular profile, and a cross section of the tubular profile comprising one dimension, in a direction parallel to the beam horizontal, between one tenth and one third of the length of the horizontal beam.
Ainsi, l'unique profilé tubulaire présente une excellente tenue mécanique du fait de la place importante qu'il occupe sous l'ossature et forme un pied ayant un aspect esthétique proche d'un habillage classique.Thus, the single tubular profile has a excellent mechanical strength due to the space important that it occupies under the framework and forms a foot having an aesthetic appearance close to a covering classic.
Les coûts de fabrication de ces moyens formant pied sont inférieurs aux coûts cumulés des pieds et de l'habillage classiquement utilisés.The manufacturing costs of these means foot are less than the cumulative costs of feet and the dressing conventionally used.
En outre, le montage est simplifié puisqu'il n'y a pas de structure d'habillage distincte à mettre en place.In addition, the assembly is simplified since there has no separate cladding structure to set up square.
Le volume et la dimension des moyens formant pied permettent de créer une structure de support utilisant au mieux l'espace disponible dans le plan vertical de la poutre de l'ossature du panneau.The volume and dimension of the means forming foot allow to create a support structure making the best use of the space available in the plan vertical of the panel frame beam.
De préférence, l'organe de fixation comporte un manchon adapté à s'emboíter autour de la poutre horizontale.Preferably, the fixing member comprises a sleeve adapted to fit around the beam horizontal.
Bien que la structure des moyens formant pied s'étende sur une certaine longueur de la poutre horizontale, un manchon unique de l'organe de fixation est enfilé sur cette poutre.Although the structure of the foot means extends over a certain length of the beam horizontal, a single sleeve of the fixing member is threaded on this beam.
Il n'est plus nécessaire, comme dans les panneaux d'affichage usuels, de se préoccuper de l'alignement de plusieurs manchons, solidaires de pieds distincts, lorsque la poutre horizontale de l'ossature est soutenue par plusieurs pieds.It is no longer necessary, as in common billboards, to worry about the alignment of several sleeves, integral with feet distinct, when the horizontal beam of the frame is supported by several feet.
Selon une version préférée de l'invention, la section transversale du profilé tubulaire se prolonge de part et d'autre du manchon, de sorte que le profilé tubulaire du pied renforce la fixation de la poutre horizontale en offrant un plan de support à la poutre horizontale qui s'étend au-delà du manchon.According to a preferred version of the invention, the cross section of the tubular profile extends from on either side of the sleeve, so that the profile tubular of the foot reinforces the fixing of the beam horizontal by providing a support plane for the beam horizontal which extends beyond the sleeve.
D'autres particularités et avantages de l'invention apparaítront encore dans la description ci-après.Other features and advantages of the invention will appear further in the description below.

Bien entendu, de nombreuses modifications peuvent être apportées à l'exemple décrit ci-dessus sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, many modifications can be made to the example described above without depart from the scope of the invention.
Ainsi, le profilé tubulaire de section transversale elliptique pourrait avoir son grand axe perpendiculaire à la poutre horizontale.Thus, the tubular section profile elliptical transverse could have its major axis perpendicular to the horizontal beam.
En outre, la section transversale du profilé tubulaire pourrait aussi être circulaire ou autre.In addition, the cross section of the profile tubular could also be circular or otherwise.
Par ailleurs, l'organe de fixation pourrait également être formé d'une plaque horizontale fixée à l'extrémité supérieure du pied et comportant des vis de fixation s'engageant dans la poutre horizontale. Une contre-plaque, fixée sur le côté supérieur de la poutre, peut éventuellement être prévue, de sorte que la poutre soit maintenue par les vis de fixation entre la plaque et la contre-plaque.Furthermore, the fixing member could also be formed of a horizontal plate fixed to the upper end of the foot and having screws fixing engaging in the horizontal beam. A counter plate, fixed on the upper side of the beam, can optionally be provided, so that the beam either held by the fixing screws between the plate and the counterplate.
