Dans le cadre des premiers secours, l'unité selon l'invention peut par exemple être larguée d'un hélicoptère afin d'apporter une aide matérielle à des sinistrés de toute nature (inondations, tremblements de terre, avalanches....).In the context of first aid, the unit according to the invention can for example be dropped from a helicopter in order to provide material aid to disaster victims of all kinds (floods, earthquakes, avalanches, etc.).

L'unité, outre des agencements particuliers lui permettant d'être à volonté transformée en lit de camp, en tente, en petite embarcation,...., peut contenir différents matériels : pharmacie de premier secours, vêtements, nourriture.......The unit, in addition to the particular arrangements allowing it to be transformed at will into a camp bed, tent, small boat, ...., can contain various materials: first aid pharmacy, clothing, food .... ...

De par sa conformation, l'unité peut être destinée à un seul utilisateur afin de lui assurer sa propre survie et d'être manipulée par ce même utilisateur.Due to its configuration, the unit can be intended for a single user in order to ensure its own survival and to be handled by this same user.

Une autre application ou utilisation particulièrement intéressante de l'unité se trouve dans les randonnées pédestres notamment, sans pour cela exclure d'autre types de randonnées, telles que celles pratiouées en bicyclettes, en motocyclettes...En effet, l'unité selon l'invention peut être utilisée traditionnellement en sac à dos en étant facilement et rapidement transformable en lit de camp, en tente, en petite embarcation.....Another particularly interesting application or use of the unit is found in hikes in particular, without excluding other types of hikes, such as those practiced on bicycles, on motorcycles ... Indeed, the unit according to the he invention can be used traditionally as a backpack by being easily and quickly transformable into a cot, tent, small boat .....

Dans ce but, l'unité selon l'invention, comprend essentiellement une structure tubulaire de base coopérant avec des agencements complémentaires d'un caisson étanche de rangement équipé de moyens porteurs à dos d'homme ; la structure tubulaire étant conformée et agencée avec des moyens complémentaires rapportés pour constituer indifféremment un lit de camp, une tente et une petite embarcation, en combinaison ou non avec le caisson étanche:

  • Les avantages obtenus gràce à l'invention sont :

  • - la compacité de l'ensemble lors de son transport ;
  • - de plus la conception de l'unité permet de désolidariser les éléments entre eux permettant une diffusion des éléments séparés, les uns par rappor: aux autres cet objectif d'indépendance des éléments permettant de satisfaire une demande très importante et très variée.
To this end, the unit according to the invention essentially comprises a basic tubular structure cooperating with complementary arrangements of a sealed storage box fitted with carrying means on a man's back; the tubular structure being shaped and arranged with additional means added to indifferently constitute a camp bed, a tent and a small boat, in combination or not with the waterproof box:
  • The advantages obtained thanks to the invention are:
  • - simplicity of implementation;
  • - the numerous possibilities of use;
  • - ease of transport, the various constituent elements being perfectly integrated;
  • - the user of the unit is completely autonomous, given that depending on the circumstances, he can use a cot with or without the canvas tent, to a small boat, the box meanwhile allowing it to store and transport food, clothing, from a first aid pharmacy ...
  • - the compactness of the assembly during transport;
  • - In addition, the design of the unit makes it possible to separate the elements from one another, allowing the separate elements to be distributed, some by comparison: to the others, this objective of independence of the elements making it possible to satisfy a very large and very varied demand.

On voit à la figure 1 que l'unité comprend essentiellement un caisson étanche (1), une structure tubulaire (2), une toile (3) et des moyens (4) conformés pour assurer le transport de l'ensemble de l'unité, à dos d'homme notamment.We see in Figure 1 that the unit essentially comprises a sealed box (1), a tubular structure (2), a canvas (3) and means (4) shaped to ensure the transport of the entire unit , especially on the back of a man.

Le caisson (1) est constitué d'une double coque (1a) avec isolation thermique telle que de la mousse de polyéthylène. La coque (1a) présente intérieurement un cloisonnement modulaire (1b) pour satisfaire de multiples utilisations. L'ouverture de la coque (la) est obturée par une porte articulée (1c) avec joint d'étanchéité (J) et un système de verrouillage (1d). Les côtés latéraux du caisson sont équipés de poignées escamotables et rabattables.The box (1) consists of a double shell (1a) with thermal insulation such as polyethylene foam. The shell (1a) internally has a modular partitioning (1b) to satisfy multiple uses. The opening of the hull (la) is closed by a hinged door (1c) with seal (J) and a locking system (1d). The lateral sides of the box are fitted with retractable and folding handles.

Sur le fond du caisson (1) est rapporté extérieurement en y étant fixé d'une manière démontable, un couvercle (1f) formant un réceptacle agencé intérieurement en (1g) pour autoriser le rangement et le positionnement notamment des éléments de la structure du lit de camp ainsi que d'autres accessoires. Ce couvercle est de même dimensionnement (longueur et largeur) que la coque (1a) de façon à former avec le caisson un ensemble homogène et intégré (figure 2).On the bottom of the box (1) is attached externally by being fixed therein in a removable manner, a cover (1f) forming a receptacle arranged internally in (1g) to allow the storage and the positioning in particular of the elements of the structure of the bed and other accessories. This cover is of the same dimensioning (length and width) as the shell (1a) so as to form with the box a homogeneous and integrated assembly (Figure 2).

Le couvercle de rangement compartimenté (1f) est en outre équipé, directement ou d'une manière rapportée, de moyens (4) de transport. Par exemple, ces moyens sont des sangles ou bretelles réglables (4a) du type de cellesqui sont montées sur les sacs à dos.The compartmentalized storage cover (1f) is furthermore equipped, directly or in an attached manner, with means (4) of transport. For example, these means are adjustable straps or suspenders (4a) of the type which are mounted on the backpacks.

Dans une forme préférée de réalisation, la structure tubulaire (2) comprend essentiellement des éléments rectilignes (5a) consitutant les côtés latéraux, des éléments transversaux (5b), ainsi que des éléments (5c) d'appui au sol faisant office de piètement. Les côtés latéraux sont réalisés au moyen de plusieurs éléments qui sont emboitables en demeurant fixés en position. Les deux côtés transversaux (5b) sont identiques et profilés en arc de cercle notamment en étant emboités en bout des éléments latéraux (5a) de façon à former un cadre support, lesdits éléments étant parallèles.In a preferred embodiment, the tubular structure (2) essentially comprises rectilinear elements (5a) constituting the lateral sides, transverse elements (5b), as well as elements (5c) for supporting the ground acting as a base. The lateral sides are produced by means of several elements which are nestable while remaining fixed in position. The two transverse sides (5b) are identical and profiled in an arc, in particular by being fitted at the end of the lateral elements (5a) so as to form a support frame, said elements being parallel.

Ces éléments de piètement (5c), au nombre de deux, sont profilés en U et sont agencés à leur extrémité libre (5cl) pour coopérer d'une manière démontable, avec une partie complémentaire des éléments transversaux (5b) notamment en vue de leur positionnement (figure 6). On souligne que chaque élément de piètement (5c) peut être constitué par deux profilés en U identiques et articulés à leur

base en vue de constituer un ouvert (fiaure 3) faisant office de These base elements (5c), two in number, are U-shaped and are arranged at their free end (5cl) to cooperate in a removable manner, with a complementary part of the transverse elements (5b) in particular for their positioning (figure 6). It is emphasized that each base element (5c) can be constituted by two identical U-shaped profiles and articulated at their

base in order to constitute an open (fiaure 3) acting as

L'ossaturE ainsi formée Et plus particulièrement le cadre d'appui (5a-5b) (figure 4) est destinée à recevoir d'une manière amovible, la toile (6) impérméable et suffisamment résistante dont la forme correspond à celle de ladite ossature après assemblage des éléments constitutifs. Sur le pourtour de cette toile (6) est fixé par tout moyen connu et approprié (couture, soudure, collage...) ; un renfort périphérique (7). Ce renfort présente d'une part deux lèvres (7a et 7 b) entre lesquelles est engagé, en y étant fixé, le bord périphérique de la toile, et d'autre part, une partie libre (7c) débordant de l'ossature pour être rabattue intérieurement contre les éléments (5a et 5b) du cadre de l'ossature en enserrant, en totalité ou en partie, la section de ces éléments.The framework thus formed And more particularly the support frame (5a-5b) (Figure 4) is intended to receive in a removable manner, the canvas (6) waterproof and sufficiently resistant whose shape corresponds to that of said framework after assembly of the constituent elements. On the periphery of this fabric (6) is fixed by any known and appropriate means (sewing, welding, bonding ...); a peripheral reinforcement (7). This reinforcement has on the one hand two lips (7a and 7b) between which is engaged, by being fixed, the peripheral edge of the fabric, and on the other hand, a free part (7c) projecting from the framework for be folded inwardly against the elements (5a and 5b) of the frame of the frame by enclosing, in whole or in part, the section of these elements.

Ln câble (8) notamment en acier inoxydable, est engagé librement dans un fourreau tubulaire (7cl) formé périphériquement à l'extrémité de la partie libre rabattue (7c) (figure 7).A cable (8), in particular made of stainless steel, is freely engaged in a tubular sheath (7cl) formed peripherally at the end of the folded free part (7c) (FIG. 7).

Comme le montrent les figures 8 et 9, le câble (8) présente à l'une de ses extrémités une boucle (8a) engagée dans un anneau(9)articulé sur un levier de verrouillage (10) constituant un étrier entre les ailes duquel est accrochée l'autre extrémité (8b) dudit câble (8). Ce levier (10), en plus de sa fonction de verrouillage et de déverrouillage du câble (8), assure la mise en tension et le réglage dudit câble. Au droit de ce système de verrouillage et de mise en tension, la partie correspondante du renfort (7) présente une échancrure (7d).As shown in Figures 8 and 9, the cable (8) has at one of its ends a loop (8a) engaged in a ring (9) articulated on a locking lever (10) constituting a stirrup between the wings of which is hooked the other end (8b) of said cable (8). This lever (10), in addition to its locking and unlocking function of the cable (8), ensures the tensioning and adjustment of said cable. In line with this locking and tensioning system, the corresponding part of the reinforcement (7) has a notch (7d).

On souligne que la section transversale des éléments (5a et 5b) de la structure est de préférence oblongue.It is emphasized that the cross section of the elements (5a and 5b) of the structure is preferably oblong.

Il en résulte donc qu'après montage et positionnement de la toile (6) sur l'ossature composée des éléments (5a et 5b) et montage des piètements (5c), on obtient un lit de camp (figures 3, 4, 5 et 6). Sous le cadre et entre les piètements (5c) peut être positionné l'ensemble du caisson (1).It therefore follows that after assembly and positioning of the fabric (6) on the framework composed of the elements (5a and 5b) and assembly of the legs (5c), a camp bed is obtained (Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6). Under the frame and between the legs (5c) can be positioned the entire box (1).

Les figures 10, 11 et 12 montrent une utilisation de l'unité en tant que tente. Dans ce but on part de la position lit de camp telle que définie précédemment, en ajoutant simplement une toile (11) maintenue par des arceaux (12). Ces arceaux (12) en fibre de verre notamment font office de support à la toile de tente proprement dite (11) et coopèrent, en combinaison avec ladite toile, avec les éléments du cadre de la structure (figure 12). La tente (11) présente une ouverture latérale (11a) obturable à volonté par un système de fermeture à glissière (3) par exemple sans pour cela exclure d'autres moyens. La toile (11) est choisie Dans une matiÈre léoère imperméable et résistante.Figures 10, 11 and 12 show a use of the unit as a tent. For this purpose we start from the camp bed position as defined above, by simply adding a canvas (11) held by poles (12). These fiberglass poles (12) in particular act as a support for the tent fabric itself (11) and cooperate, in combination with said canvas, with the elements of the frame of the structure (FIG. 12). The tent (11) has a lateral opening (11a) which can be closed at will by a zipper system (3), for example without excluding other means. The Web (11) is chosen from a waterproof and resistant light material.

Pour une utilisation en tant que petite embarcation (figures 13,14 et 15) on utilise l'ossature du lit de camp sans les piètements, c'est à dire uniouement les éléments (5a et 5b) du cadre avec la toile (6). A cet effet, le cadre (5a et 5b) avec la toile (6), est positionné sur une toile imperméabilisée 13) équipée d'une ceinture périphérique formant un boudin gonflable (14). Les dimensiens de la toile (13) en combinaison avec la ceinture gonflable (14) sont déterminées, de sorte que , après gonflage de ladite ceinture, la structure (5a - 5b - 6) du lit de camp est centrée et positionnée d'une manière parfaitement étanche avec l'ensemble de la toile de fond (13) et le boudin gonflé (14) (figure 15). Les éléments (5a-5b) sont coincés entre une partie du boudin (14) et de la toile (13).For use as a small boat (Figures 13,14 and 15) we use the frame of the camp bed without the legs, that is to say, only the elements (5a and 5b) of the frame with the canvas (6) . To this end, the frame (5a and 5b) with the canvas (6) is positioned on a waterproofed canvas 13) equipped with a peripheral belt forming an inflatable tube (14). The dimensions of the fabric (13) in combination with the inflatable belt (14) are determined, so that, after inflation of said belt, the structure (5a - 5b - 6) of the camp bed is centered and positioned perfectly sealed with the entire backdrop (13) and the inflated tube (14) (Figure 15). The elements (5a-5b) are wedged between a part of the flange (14) and the fabric (13).

Dans une réalisation en variante figure 16, la structure tubulaire (2) est rÉalisÉe à partir d'éléments (15) convenablement articulés entre eux en (16) pour constituer à la fois le piètement (15a) et le cadre support (15b) destiné à recevoir la toile 6, comme indiqué précédemment. L'ensemble des éléments (15) de la structure peut dans ce cas coopérer avec l'extérieur du caisson (1), les piètements (15a) enserrant la section dudit caisson en y étant maintenus en position au moyen par exemple d'une creusure (17).In an alternative embodiment in Figure 16, the tubular structure (2) is made from elements (15) suitably articulated together at (16) to constitute both the base (15a) and the support frame (15b) intended to receive the fabric 6, as indicated above. All the elements (15) of the structure can in this case cooperate with the exterior of the box (1), the legs (15a) enclosing the section of said box by being held there in position by means, for example, of a recess (17).
