Abstract

The support has a movable band or cradle (1) mounted on a chassis-armature of a pallet (2) that supports a SMC coil. Actuating cylinders (3) permit to fix the band or cradle in multiple positions and adapt the band or cradle to variable diameter of the coil, such that the weight of the coil is constantly supported on whole length and on a lower part of the diameter by the band or cradle. The cylinders comprise a jacket (31) articulated to the armature and a piston (32) articulated to a post (30) where a lateral part (11) of the cradle or band is mounted.

Description

L'objet de l'invention est un support pour bobines en matériau susceptible de décrochement et/ou déformation, par exemple et notamment le SMC, qui est un matériau à matrice en résine thermostable renforcé avec de la fibre de verre, de la fibre de carbone ou des fibres naturelles, ce matériau se présentant sous forme de grandes bobines de tailles et poids différents ; ces bobines sont susceptibles de se décrocher et/ou se déformer, notamment durant la période de maturation du matériau.The object of the invention is a support for coils of material capable of recess and / or deformation, for example and in particular the SMC, which is a thermostable resin matrix material reinforced with fiberglass, the fiber of carbon or natural fibers, this material being in the form of large coils of different sizes and weights; these coils are likely to unhook and / or deform, especially during the maturation period of the material.

Dans l'état actuel de la technique, pour éviter le décrochement et/ou la déformation des bobines de SMC (qui peuvent comporter des tailles et des poids différents et arrivent à atteindre des largeurs de 1600 mm. et des poids de 1600 kg.), on a recours à de grands noyaux, ce qui réduit énormément la quantité maximale de matériau qui peut être enroulé sur chaque bobine.In the current state of the art, to avoid the recess and / or the deformation of the SMC coils (which may have different sizes and weights and reach 1600 mm widths and 1600 kg weights.) large cores are used, which greatly reduces the maximum amount of material that can be rolled up on each spool.

Avec le système qui fait l'objet de l'invention, on réduit au minimum le noyau, en enroulant une grande quantité de matériau sur chaque bobine pour un même diamètre final.With the system that is the subject of the invention, the core is minimized, by winding a large amount of material on each coil for the same final diameter.

Pour mieux comprendre l'objet de la présente invention, on a représenté sur les plans une forme préférentielle de réalisation pratique, susceptible de changements accessoires qui n'en dénaturent pas le fondement.To better understand the object of the present invention, there is shown on the plans a preferred form of practical realization, susceptible of incidental changes that do not denature the foundation.

La figure 1 représente une vue générale schématique en perspective du support qui fait l'objet de l'invention, pour un exemple -non limitatif- de réalisation pratique.Figure 1 shows a schematic perspective view of the support which is the subject of the invention, for a non-limiting example of practical implementation.

La figure 2 représente une vue générale schématique de profil en long correspondant à la figure antérieure.FIG. 2 represents a schematic overall view of the longitudinal profile corresponding to the previous figure.

La figure 3 représente une vue générale schématique de profil correspondant à la figure antérieure.Figure 3 shows a schematic overall profile view corresponding to the previous figure.

En vue d'une plus grande clarté d'interprétation, on a supprimé, sur toutes ces figures, la bobine -dont l'axe du noyau est disposé sur les appuis latéraux (4) avec la possibilité de tourner librement.For greater clarity of interpretation, in all these figures, the coil, whose axis of the core is disposed on the lateral supports (4) with the possibility of free rotation, has been omitted.

On décrit ci-dessous un exemple de réalisation pratique, non limitative, de la présente invention.An exemplary practical, non-limiting embodiment of the present invention is described below.

L'objet de l'invention est un support pour bobines de matériau susceptible de décrochement et/ou déformation applicable aux châssis-palettes (2) connus, modulaires ou pas, qui comportent chacun deux appuis latéraux (4) où est disposé, ayant la possibilité de tourner librement, l'axe de la bobine à supporter.The object of the invention is a support for coils of material capable of recess and / or deformation applicable to the known pallet frames (2), whether modular or not, which each comprise two lateral supports (4) where is arranged, having the possibility to rotate freely, the axis of the coil to support.

Il est indifférent et accessoire aux fins de cette invention que le châssis-palette (2) soit modulaire ou pas (pour le rendre modulaire, il suffit de façonner sur ses colonnes sur chacune des têtes (21) où prend appui l'extrémité-base inférieure (22) de la colonne respective correspondant à la palette suivante).It is indifferent and incidental for the purposes of this invention that the pallet frame (2) is modular or not (to make it modular, it is sufficient to shape on its columns on each of the heads (21) where the end-base is supported lower (22) of the respective column corresponding to the next pallet).

Il est également indifférent et accessoire, aux fins de cette invention, d'utiliser des appuis (4) similaires à ceux qui sont représentés ou d'utiliser d'autres appuis (4) différents.It is equally irrelevant and incidental for the purpose of this invention to use supports (4) similar to those shown or to use other supports (4) different.

Conformément à l'invention et selon la réalisation représentée, le support se compose d'au moins un berceau ou bande (1) mobile monté sur le l'armature-châssis de la palette (2) qui supporte la bobine et des moyens (3) pour fixer dans des positions multiples ce berceau ou bande (1) et l'adapter au diamètre variable de la bobine ; de sorte que le poids de la bobine soit constamment supporté sur toute sa longueur et sur approximativement la moitié inférieure de son diamètre par ce berceau ou bande (1), ce qui évite au matériau de se décrocher et/ou à la bobine de se déformer.According to the invention and according to the embodiment shown, the support consists of at least one mobile cradle or band (1) mounted on the frame-frame of the pallet (2) which supports the coil and means (3). ) to fix in multiple positions this cradle or band (1) and adapt it to the variable diameter of the coil; so that the weight of the coil is constantly supported over its entire length and approximately the lower half of its diameter by this cradle or band (1), which prevents the material from falling off and / or the coil from deforming .

En particulier, lesdits moyens de fixation multipositions sont des cylindres d'actionnement (3) avec leur chemise (31) articulée en (31 a) à l'armature-châssis de la palette(2) et avec leur piston (32) articulé en (32a) a un montant (30) où est monté la partie latérale correspondante (11) du berceau ou bande (1), le piston (32) de chaque cylindre (3) comportant une denture (33) sur laquelle s'encastre unidirectionnellement un pêne-onglet (34) actionnable à la main par l'ouvrier, lorsqu'il faut le reculer jusqu'à sa position de déroulement.In particular, said multiposition positioning means are actuating cylinders (3) with their liner (31) hinged at (31 a) to the chassis frame of the pallet (2) and with their piston (32) hinged in (32a) has an upright (30) where is mounted the corresponding lateral part (11) of the cradle or band (1), the piston (32) of each cylinder (3) having a toothing (33) on which fits unidirectionally a bolt-tab (34) operable manually by the worker, when it must be moved back to its unwinding position.

De préférence, les cylindres (3) structurés comme on l'a décrit, sont disposés par paires : deux cylindres (3) fixé à chaque montant latéral (30).Preferably, the cylinders (3) structured as described, are arranged in pairs: two cylinders (3) attached to each lateral upright (30).

Toute autre réalisation pratique équivalente ou alternative qui n'altère, ne change ou ne modifie pas le caractère essentiel proposé, qui est celui de disposer un berceau ou bande (1) sous la bobine de matériau, en faisant que ce berceau ou bande (1) soit mobile pour s'adapter au diamètre variable de la bobine et, le cas échéant, en être retiré sans problèmes lorsque la bobine va être utilisée, est comprise dans l'objet de l'invention.Any other equivalent or alternative practical embodiment that does not alter, change or modify the proposed essential character, which is that of arranging a cradle or band (1) under the reel of material, by making this cradle or band (1 ) is mobile to fit the variable diameter of the coil and, if necessary, to be removed without problems when the coil is going to be used, is included in the subject of the invention.
