Description

DISPOSITIF DE MAINTIEN DE PIECES DE TISSUS TELLES QUE DES DEVICE FOR HOLDING PIECES OF FABRICS SUCH AS
RIDEAUXCURTAINS
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de maintien de pièces de tissus telles que des rideaux, notamment pour constituer des embrasses. Les rideaux sont pris comme exemple illustratif sans que cette application ne soit limitative. Les rideaux sont suspendus à des tringles ou à tout autre support pour les maintenir parallèles à une ouverture généralement. Il convient de pouvoir ouvrir ces rideaux, notamment lorsqu'ils comprennent plusieurs pans, pour dégager ladite ouverture. Néanmoins, ce dégagement doit être réalisé en donnant à ces rideaux une forme esthétique satisfaisante, autre qu'un simple repliement latéral en accordéon, verticalement, sur toute la hauteur, comme cela est le cas dans les systèmes classiques connus.The present invention relates to a device for holding pieces of fabric such as curtains, in particular for forming tie-backs. The curtains are taken as an illustrative example without this application being limiting. The curtains are suspended from rods or any other support to keep them parallel to an opening generally. It should be possible to open these curtains, in particular when they comprise several sections, to release said opening. However, this clearance must be achieved by giving these curtains a satisfactory aesthetic form, other than a simple lateral folding in accordion, vertically, over the entire height, as is the case in known conventional systems.
Il a été conçu des moyens pour réaliser un tel mouvement d'un ou de plusieurs pans de rideaux appelés embrasse. De tels moyens consistent en une attache fixe contre le mur portant l'ouverture de part et d'autre de celle-ci et des moyens de retenue d'un des pans de rideau correspondant.Means have been devised for carrying out such a movement of one or more sections of curtains called embraces. Such means consist of a fixed attachment against the wall carrying the opening on either side thereof and means for retaining one of the corresponding curtain sections.
Ces embrasses peuvent être rigides, sous forme d'un crochet à grande ouverture dont une extrémité est solidaire du mur et l'autre est ouverte pour recevoir le pan de rideau resserré en un point. Dans ce cas, les embrasses mécaniques ont une rigidité suffisante pour retenir le poids du pan concerné. Ces embrasses peuvent aussi être de type souple sous forme de chaîne ou de tout autre pièce de tissu ou cordon solidaire par une extrémité à un point fixe etThese tiebacks can be rigid, in the form of a hook with a large opening, one end of which is secured to the wall and the other is open to receive the curtain panel tightened at one point. In this case, the mechanical tiebacks have sufficient rigidity to retain the weight of the pan concerned. These tiebacks can also be of the flexible type in the form of a chain or any other piece of fabric or cord secured at one end to a fixed point and
FEUILLE DE REMPL RÈGLE 26 susceptible de venir se rattacher de façon amovible sur ce point fixe par l'autre extrémité.REPLY SHEET RULE 26 likely to be removably attached to this fixed point by the other end.
Dans tous les cas, on comprend qu'il faut réaliser un point de fixation au mur awec les inconvénients que cela représente. Il faut en effet d'abord réaliser l'opération elle-même de mise en place d'un point de fixation et ensuite, on comprend que le point de maintien des rideaux est déterminé et ne peut être modifié sauf à recommencer l'opération de mise en place d'un point de fixation.In all cases, we understand that it is necessary to make a point of attachment to the wall with the disadvantages that this represents. First of all, it is necessary to carry out the operation itself of setting up a fixing point and then, it is understood that the point of holding the curtains is determined and cannot be modified except to start the operation of installation of a fixing point.
Par contre, ce type d'embrasse ne peut être disposé en partie centrale pour lier deux pans de rideaux par exemple ou pour créer un point de serrage central sur au moins un des pans.On the other hand, this type of tie-back cannot be arranged in the central part to link two sections of curtains for example or to create a central clamping point on at least one of the sections.
On connaît de l'art antérieur la demande de brevet DE 26 40 167 qui décrit un dispositif adapté pour coopérer avec un rideau en sorte de le maintenir en position ouverte par rapprochement d'un bord libre médian vers l'autre bord. Ce dispositif de l'art antérieur prévoit une embase fixée au mur et une pièce amovible qui vient se plaquer sur le support pour immobiliser le pan de rideau concerné.The patent application DE 26 40 167 is known from the prior art which describes a device adapted to cooperate with a curtain so as to keep it in the open position by bringing a free median edge towards the other edge. This device of the prior art provides a base fixed to the wall and a removable part which is pressed against the support to immobilize the curtain panel concerned.
Le dispositif n'est pas auto supporté, ce qui permet de prévoir des éléments de fortes dimensions et des aimants de fortes dimensions également. Un tel dispositif n'est pas susceptible d'être placé en toute emplacement du pan de rideau pour faire des regroupements de plis à moitié, au tiers, vers un côté ou vers l'autre et constitue une parfaite illustration de l'art antérieur et de ses inconvénients.The device is not self-supporting, which makes it possible to provide elements of large dimensions and magnets of large dimensions also. Such a device is not likely to be placed in any location of the curtain panel to make groupings of folds in half, in third, to one side or the other and constitutes a perfect illustration of the prior art and of its drawbacks.
L'art antérieur connu mentionne aussi la demande de brevet US 5 517 722 qui montre un ensemble de deux pièces libres coopérant par aimantation et aptes à venir se plaquer l'une contre l'autre.The known prior art also mentions the patent application US 5,517,722 which shows a set of two free parts cooperating by magnetization and able to come to press against each other.
Par contre, les deux pièces ménagent un espace périphérique entre les deux pièces dans lequel le pan replié est pincé. Les deux pièces ne viennent pas pincer le pan de rideau à travers le tissu. En variante, il est même prévu un réglage de la largeur de cet espace périphérique. Les deux parties aimantées centrales viennent par contre en appui l'une sur l'autre, formant la mise en butée.By cons, the two parts provide a peripheral space between the two parts in which the folded pan is pinched. The two pieces do not pinch the curtain across the fabric. As a variant, provision is even made for adjusting the width of this peripheral space. The two central magnetized parts, on the other hand, come to bear on one another, forming the abutment.
On comprend la grande utilité de disposer d'un dispositif de maintien de pièces de tissus qui permettent différentes modalités de maintien, qui soit simple à mettre en oeuvre, qui soit décoratif et esthétique, qui permette aussi le positionnement de ces pièces de tissus comme cela était réalisé jusqu'à aujourd'hui.We understand the great utility of having a device for holding pieces of fabric which allow different methods of holding, which is simple to implement, which is decorative and aesthetic, which also allows the positioning of these pieces of fabric like this. was carried out until today.
Une autre contrainte est aussi le prix et donc la réalisation industrielle de ce type de dispositif sans pour autant négliger les aspects artistiques.Another constraint is also the price and therefore the industrial production of this type of device without neglecting the artistic aspects.
Le dispositif de maintien selon la présente invention est maintenant décrit en détail selon un mode de réalisation particulier, non limitatif, en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels les figures représentent :The holding device according to the present invention is now described in detail according to a particular, nonlimiting embodiment, with reference to the appended drawings in which the figures represent:

Sur la figure 1, le dispositif de maintien de pièces de tissu comprend deux pièces- Figure 7A, a view of a variant with multiple possibilities constituting a flexible link kit, and - Figure 7B, a view of a variant with multiple possibilities constituting a rigid link kit. In FIG. 1, the device for holding pieces of fabric comprises two pieces
10 et 12, de forme esthétique choisie et comportant chacune au moins une surface 14, 16 de contact.10 and 12, of chosen aesthetic form and each comprising at least one contact surface 14, 16.
Cette surface de contact doit essentiellement présenter un état compatible avec les tissus avec lesquels elle doit coopérer. Quand on sait qu'il peut s'agir de voilages, il est préférable que l'état de surface ne présente pour le moins aucune aspérité sans pour autant que chaque surface de contact soit parfaitement plane. Il faut en effet éviter les glissements.This contact surface must essentially present a state compatible with the tissues with which it must cooperate. When it is known that it may be curtains, it is preferable that the surface condition has at least no roughness without, however, that each contact surface is perfectly flat. Slips must be avoided.
En outre, il est prévu des moyens 18 de liaison de ces deux pièces. Ces moyens de liaison sont de type magnétique nécessairement puisque la liaison s'effectue à travers le tissu.In addition, means 18 are provided for connecting these two parts. These connecting means are necessarily of magnetic type since the connection takes place through the tissue.
A cet effet, il est prévu au moins un élément 20 aimanté intégré dans l'une des pièces 10 ou 12 et au moins un élément 22 magnétique dans l'autre de ces pièces.To this end, there is provided at least one magnetic element 20 integrated in one of the parts 10 or 12 and at least one magnetic element 22 in the other of these parts.
Ainsi, il peut être prévu un aimant 20 dans la première pièce 10 et une plaque 22 de matériau à base de fer donc magnétique dans la seconde pièce 12 ou deux aimants.Thus, a magnet 20 can be provided in the first part 10 and a plate 22 of iron-based material, therefore magnetic, in the second part 12 or two magnets.
Le choix dépend essentiellement de la surface de contact, de la force d'attraction nécessaire et de l'entrefer.The choice essentially depends on the contact surface, the necessary force of attraction and the air gap.
Ces éléments 20, 22 sont de préférence noyés dans chaque pièce 10, 12 réalisée en matériau polymère ou intégrés dans le bois lorsque celui-ci est utilisé comme matrice, à proximité des surfaces 14, 16 de contact en sorte de conserver au pouvoir d'attraction de ces éléments l'essentiel de ses capacités.These elements 20, 22 are preferably embedded in each piece 10, 12 made of polymeric material or integrated into the wood when the latter is used as a matrix, near the contact surfaces 14, 16 so as to keep the power of attraction of these elements the bulk of its capabilities.
L'implantation est visible sur la figure 2.The layout is visible in Figure 2.
La mise en oeuvre de ce dispositif est illustrée par la figure 3A qui montre deux pans 24 et 26 d'un rideau 28 suspendu à une tringle 30.The implementation of this device is illustrated by FIG. 3A which shows two sections 24 and 26 of a curtain 28 suspended from a rod 30.
Si l'on souhaite écar er les rideaux latéralement pour dégager l'ouverture 32 devant laquelle est disposé ledit rideau, l'utilisateur procède à un regroupementIf one wishes to spread the curtains laterally to clear the opening 32 in front of which said curtain is disposed, the user proceeds to a grouping
34 du tissu en un faisceau de plis, en un point, et applique les deux éléments 20 et 22 de part et d'autre de ce tissu, les faces de contact en vis-à-vis, ce qui maintient chaque pan dans la position représentée. Le dispositif permet de faire fonction d'embrasse libre.34 of the fabric in a bundle of folds, at a point, and apply the two elements 20 and 22 on either side of this fabric, the contact faces facing each other, which keeps each panel in the position shown. The device makes it possible to act as a free kiss.
Suivant une variante, figure 3B, il est possible de réaliser une mise en place des deux mêmes pans 24, 26 du rideau 28 en embrasse centrale, avec un repliement central, ce qui est impossible avec les autres moyens connus. Les deux pièces étant de part et d'autre et coopérant par liaison aimantée.According to a variant, FIG. 3B, it is possible to implement the same two panels 24, 26 of the curtain 28 in central embrace, with central folding, which is impossible with the other known means. The two parts being on either side and cooperating by magnetic link.
Néanmoins, ces possibilités qui viennent d'être décrites l'ont été pour des tissus considérés comme légers tels que des voilages par exemple. Sur la figure 4A, on a représen é une variante de réalisation du dispositif avec un lien 36 souple interposé entre les deux pièces 10 et 12. Ce lien permet d'entourer le repliement des rideaux même lorsque les tissus sont plus épais. Les deux pièces sont alors disposées sur le bord extérieur du pan du rideau concerné, de part et d'autre du tissu le composant pour que leurs surfaces 14, 16 de contact soient disposées en vis-à-vis afin de faire coopérer les éléments aimantés et/ou magnétiques.However, these possibilities which have just been described have been for fabrics considered as light such as curtains for example. In FIG. 4A, an alternative embodiment of the device is shown with a flexible link 36 interposed between the two parts 10 and 12. This link makes it possible to surround the folding of the curtains even when the fabrics are thicker. The two parts are then placed on the outside edge of the panel of the curtain concerned, on either side of the fabric composing it so that their contact surfaces 14, 16 are arranged opposite so as to make the magnetized elements cooperate and / or magnetic.
Sur la figure 4B, le lien est 36-1 est un lien rigide sous forme de croc, qui permet de retenir les plis du rideau au même titre que le lien souple. Ce lien rigide est porté par une seule des deux pièces. Sa forme et ses dimensions sont adaptées en fonction du type de rideau, de la puissance de maintien des pièces aimantées et de l'esthétique recherchée.In FIG. 4B, the link is 36-1 is a rigid link in the form of a hook, which makes it possible to retain the folds of the curtain in the same way as the flexible link. This rigid link is carried by only one of the two parts. Its shape and dimensions are adapted according to the type of curtain, the holding power of the magnetic parts and the desired aesthetics.
La figure 6 montre une variante dans laquelle il est prévu un point fixe. Ce point fixe consiste en une des deux pièces 10, 12 qui est rapportée sur le mur par tout moyen adapté de fixation comme un vissage ou un collage. De ce fait, cette pièce fixe peut être simplifiée dans sa fabrication et ne comporter qu'une embase 38 aimanté et/ou magnétique, par exemple, une simple plaque métallique magnétique. Dans ce cas, l'ensemble des deux pièces et du lien, en l'occurrence rigide, est retenu en un point, ce qui permet un écartement plus important et un plus grand dégagement de l'ouverture 32, voir figure 5.Figure 6 shows a variant in which a fixed point is provided. This fixed point consists of one of the two parts 10, 12 which is attached to the wall by any suitable means of fixing such as screwing or gluing. Therefore, this fixed part can be simplified in its manufacture and include only a magnetic and / or magnetic base 38, for example, a simple magnetic metal plate. In this case, the assembly of the two parts and of the link, in this case rigid, is retained at one point, which allows greater spacing and greater clearance of the opening 32, see FIG. 5.
Enfin, sur la figure 7 A, il est représenté un kit comprenant deux pièces 10, 12, un lien 36 et une embase 38. On note dans ce mode de réalisation, que le lien comprend à ses deux extrémités une partie 40-1 de moyens 40 amovibles de connexion tandis que les pièces 10, 12 et l'embase 38 portent l'autre partie 40-2 de ces moyens.Finally, in FIG. 7A, there is shown a kit comprising two parts 10, 12, a link 36 and a base 38. It is noted in this embodiment, that the link comprises at its two ends a part 40-1 of removable connection means 40 while the parts 10, 12 and the base 38 carry the other part 40-2 of these means.
On peut ainsi recourir à une tête coopérant avec un logement et des moyens de blocage amovible.We can thus use a head cooperating with a housing and removable locking means.
L'utilisateur peut réaliser à tout moment l'une ou l'autre des combinaisons avec ou sans point fixe, avec ou sans lien, en embrasse centrale ou latérale, suivant ses besoins ou suivant l'évolution de ceux-ci.The user can carry out at any time one or the other of the combinations with or without fixed point, with or without link, in central or lateral embrace, according to his needs or according to the evolution of these.
De même, différents matériaux, différentes couleurs peuvent être utilisés tant pour la réalisation des pièces 10, 12 que pour celle des liens, offrant ainsi une infinité de combinaisons.Similarly, different materials, different colors can be used both for the production of parts 10, 12 and that of the links, thus offering an infinite number of combinations.
Sur la figure 7B, la variante représentée montre le même agencement de kit mais avec un lien 36-1 rigide porté par une des pièces. L'encliquetage de l'extrémité de ce lien rigide peut prendre toute forme, un ergot élastique de crantage permettant de retenir de façon sécurisée le lien. In FIG. 7B, the variant shown shows the same arrangement of the kit but with a rigid link 36-1 carried by one of the parts. The snap-fastening of the end of this rigid link can take any form, an elastic notching lug making it possible to securely retain the link.
