Description

L'invention concerne le domaine de la literie.The invention relates to the field of bedding.

Elle concerne plus particulièrement un curseur variateur de tension destiné à être adapté sur des ensembles tri-lattes de sommiers à lattes en vue de permettre un réglage à volonté de la flexibilité des lattes.It relates more particularly to a voltage variator slider intended to be adapted to tri-slatted sets of slatted bases in order to allow an adjustment at will of the flexibility of the slats.

Les lattes de sommiers sont généralement fixées sur les longerons du cadre de sommier par l'intermédiaire d'embouts présentant des logements destinés à l'encastrement de leurs extrémités. Ces embouts et les lattes constituent les moyens de suspension du matelas, dont la raideur est choisie à l'achat du sommier.The battens slats are generally fixed to the longitudinal members of the box spring frame by means of end pieces having recesses for embedding their ends. These tips and slats are the means of suspension of the mattress, whose stiffness is chosen to purchase the box spring.

Toutefois en fonction du poids et de la morphologie de la personne utilisant le lit, il peut être utile de pouvoir modifier la raideur de chaque ensemble tri-lattes.However, depending on the weight and morphology of the person using the bed, it may be useful to be able to change the stiffness of each tri-slats set.

Ceci peut être réalisé notamment par l'adjonction de curseurs variateurs de tension. En général, les curseurs variateurs de tension comportent au moins un orifice traversant dans lequel est enfilée une latte lors du montage du sommier. Ce curseur peut être déplacé le long de ladite latte, ce qui permet de modifier la raideur entre la partie gauche du sommier et sa partie droite. Mais pour enlever ce curseur et le placer sur une autre latte plus appropriée, il est nécessaire de démonter le sommier, ce qui est une opération longue et difficile à faire par des usagers non avertis.This can be achieved in particular by the addition of voltage dimmer sliders. In general, the voltage dimmer sliders comprise at least one through orifice in which a batten is threaded during the assembly of the bed base. This slider can be moved along said batten, which makes it possible to modify the stiffness between the left part of the bed base and its right part. But to remove this slider and place it on another slat more appropriate, it is necessary to disassemble the bed frame, which is a long operation and difficult to do by unsuspecting users.

Il est également connu, notamment par FR 2 666 973, un curseur variateur de tension pour un ensemble tri-lattes de sommier qui est constitué de deux lattes supérieures parallèles disposées dans le plan de dépose du matelas et d'une latte inférieure disposée sensiblement dans le plan médian de deux lattes supérieures, les lattes étant soutenues à leurs extrémités par des moyens de fixation sur les longerons du cadre de sommier, que l'on peut facilement déplacer d'un jeu de lattes supérieures à un autre jeu sans démontage du sommier. Ceci est obtenu par le fait que les moyens de fixation du curseur sur les lattes supérieures comportant une structure d'encastrement des lattes supérieures constituée d'un noyau central surmontant un dispositif de suspension et à partir duquel s'étendent deux logements ouverts latéralement pour la réception des lattes supérieures. L'épaisseur de ce curseur est inférieure à l'écartement des deux lattes supérieures, ce qui permet, lors du montage, de positionner les logements entre lesdites deux lattes, et en pratiquant un quart de tour autour d'un axe vertical de fixer le curseur sur les deux lattes supérieures à l'endroit désiré et sur l'ensemble tri-lattes souhaité. Le démontage se fait selon le processus inverse, en tournant le curseur d'un quart de tour.It is also known, in particular from FR 2 666 973, a voltage-dimming slider for a tri-slatted bed base assembly which consists of two parallel upper slats arranged in the mattress removal plane and a lower slat disposed substantially in the median plane of two upper slats, the slats being supported at their ends by fastening means on the longitudinal members of the bed frame, which can be easily moved from one set of upper slats to another game without dismounting the bed base . This is achieved by the fact that the slider fixing means on the upper slats comprising a structure for embedding the upper slats consists of a central core surmounting a suspension device and from which extend two laterally open housings for the reception of the upper slats. The thickness of this slider is less than the spacing of the two upper slats, which allows, during assembly, to position the housing between said two slats, and practicing a quarter turn around a vertical axis to fix the slider on the two upper slats to the desired location and on the desired tri-slats set. Disassembly is done in the reverse process, turning the cursor a quarter of a turn.

L'épaisseur de ce curseur est donc limitée par l'écartement des deux lattes supérieures, afin de permettre son montage et son démontage. L'épaisseur des moyens de suspension de ce curseur variateur de tension, qui sont destinés à prendre appui sur la latte inférieure, est également limitée par l'écartement des deux lattes supérieures afin de permettre son passage entre lesdites deux lattes pour le montage ou le démontage.The thickness of this slider is limited by the spacing of the two upper slats, to allow its assembly and disassembly. The thickness of the suspension means of this slider voltage variator, which are intended to bear on the lower slat, is also limited by the spacing of the two upper slats to allow its passage between said two slats for mounting or the disassembly.

Or il peut être utile de ne pas être limité dans l'épaisseur des moyens de suspension, cette épaisseur étant mesurée dans le sens de la direction des lattes, en cours d'utilisation, du curseur.However, it may be useful not to be limited in the thickness of the suspension means, this thickness being measured in the direction of the direction of the slats, in use, the slider.

L'invention propose un curseur variateur de tension pour un ensemble tri-lattes qui soit d'un montage aisé, qui soit facile à déplacer et dont la dimension des dispositifs de suspension dans la direction des lattes n'est pas soumise à une limitation.The invention proposes a voltage variator slider for a tri-slat assembly that is easy to mount, that is easy to move and that the dimension of the suspension devices in the direction of the slats is not subject to limitation.

L'invention atteint son but par le fait que les moyens de fixation du dispositif de suspension sur les lattes supérieures comportent une bande destinée à être disposée transversalement au-dessus desdites lattes supérieures, cette bande comportant à chacune de ses extrémités un arceau destiné à coopérer avec un bord extérieur desdites deux lattes, l'un de ces arceaux étant relié au dispositif de suspension par une paroi de liaison.The invention achieves its object by the fact that the fastening means of the suspension device on the upper slats comprise a strip intended to be arranged transversely above said upper slats, this strip having at each of its ends a bow intended to cooperate with an outer edge of said two slats, one of these arches being connected to the suspension device by a connecting wall.

Les arceaux coopèrent avec les bords des lattes à la manière de crochets. Du fait de l'élasticité des embouts des lattes, il est aisé de rapprocher manuellement les deux lattes supérieures d'un ensemble tri-lattes pour permettre l'accrochage de l'arceau libre, après avoir positionner le dispositif de suspension du curseur sous les deux lattes supérieures, l'une de ces lattes logeant dans l'arceau relié à la paroi de jonction.The arches cooperate with the edges of the slats in the manner of hooks. Due to the elasticity of the ends of the slats, it is easy to manually bring the two upper slats of a tri-slats together to allow the attachment of the free arch, after positioning the slider suspension device under the two upper slats, one of these slats housed in the arch connected to the junction wall.

Selon une autre caractéristique particulière, le curseur variateur de tension comporte en outre des moyens pour bloquer le dispositif de suspension sur la latte inférieure. Ces moyens de blocage comportent avantageusement un troisième arceau coopérant avec un bord latéral de la latte inférieure. Ce troisième arceau est disposé de préférence, du côté opposé à la paroi de jonction.According to another particular characteristic, the voltage variator slider further comprises means for locking the suspension device on the lower slat. These locking means advantageously comprise a third hoop cooperating with a lateral edge of the lower batten. This third arch is preferably arranged on the opposite side to the junction wall.

Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse, le curseur variateur de tension selon l'invention comporte en outre des moyens pour immobiliser le dispositif de suspension sous les lattes supérieures. Ces moyens d'immobilisation sont constitués de préférence par une languette solidaire du dispositif de suspension et qui s'étend de manière sensiblement symétrique à la paroi de jonction par rapport au plan vertical médian des deux lattes supérieures, ladite languette étant destinée à prendre appui sous une latte supérieure.According to another advantageous characteristic, the voltage variator slider according to the invention further comprises means for immobilizing the suspension device under the upper slats. These immobilization means are preferably constituted by a tab integral with the suspension device and which extends substantially symmetrically to the connecting wall relative to the median vertical plane of the two upper slats, said tongue being intended to take support under an upper batten.

Pour bien positionner le curseur variateur de tension sur l'ensemble tri-lattes, la bande peut comporter en outre deux oreilles qui s'étendent vers le bas à partir de ses bords, lesdites oreilles étant destinées à loger dans l'espace séparant les deux lattes supérieures.In order to position the voltage variator slider on the tri-slat assembly, the strip may further comprise two ears which extend downwards from its edges, said ears being intended to fit in the space separating the two upper battens.

La bande peut comporter en outre vers sa face inférieure un pion vertical destiné à loger au moins en partie dans un trou ménagé dans la paroi supérieure du dispositif de suspension.The strip may further comprise, towards its underside, a vertical pin intended to fit at least partially in a hole formed in the upper wall of the suspension device.

Le dispositif de suspension se présente sous la forme d'un manchon. La dimension axiale de ce manchon est indépendante de l'écartement des deux lattes supérieures, et cette dimension est calculée en fonction de la raideur souhaitée.The suspension device is in the form of a sleeve. The axial dimension of this sleeve is independent of the spacing of the two upper slats, and this dimension is calculated according to the desired stiffness.

Le curseur variateur de tension selon l'invention est réalisé en un matériau de type élastomère ou thermoplastique, par moulage, permettant une souplesse suffisante pour réaliser un effet charnière, notamment au niveau de l'arceau relié à la paroi de liaison pour permettre un montage et démontage aisé.The voltage variator slider according to the invention is made of a material of elastomer or thermoplastic type, by molding, allowing sufficient flexibility to achieve a hinge effect, particularly at the hoop connected to the connecting wall to allow mounting and easy disassembly.

Les figures 1 à 3 montrent un curseur variateur de tension 1 selon un premier mode de réalisation, destiné à être monté sur un ensemble tri-lattes de sommier 2 qui présente deux lattes supérieures 3a, 3b dans le plan de dépose d'un matelas et d'une latte inférieure 4 disposée sensiblement dans le plan vertical médian des deux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b. Les deux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b sont séparées par un intervalle d.FIGS. 1 to 3 show a voltage dimmer slider 1 according to a first embodiment, intended to be mounted on a tri-slatted frame assembly 2 which has two upper slats 3a, 3b in the plane of the laying of a mattress and a lower batten 4 disposed substantially in the median vertical plane of the two upper battens 3a and 3b. The two upper battens 3a and 3b are separated by an interval d.

Le curseur variateur 1 comporte un dispositif de suspension 5, qui présente un manchon 6 de section circulaire ou elliptique, et une embase 7 reposant sur la face supérieure de la latte inférieure 4, et des moyens de fixation 8 du dispositif de suspension 5 sur les lattes supérieures 3a et 3b.The dimmer slider 1 comprises a suspension device 5, which has a sleeve 6 of circular or elliptical section, and a base 7 resting on the upper face of the lower batten 4, and fastening means 8 of the suspension device 5 on the upper battens 3a and 3b.

Ces moyens de fixation comportent une bande 9, destinée à être disposée transversalement sur les faces supérieures des lattes supérieures 3a et 3b, dont les extrémités comportent des arceaux ou crochets 10a, 10b destinés à coopérer avec les bords latéraux externes des deux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b.These fastening means comprise a band 9, intended to be arranged transversely on the upper faces of the upper slats 3a and 3b, the ends of which comprise arches or hooks 10a, 10b intended to cooperate with the external lateral edges of the two upper slats 3a and 3b.

L'un de ces arceaux, 10a par exemple, qui coopère avec le bord latéral externe de la latte supérieure 3b, est relié au dispositif de suspension 5 par une paroi de liaison 11. Cette paroi de liaison 11, sensiblement horizontale prend appui sous la face inférieure de la latte supérieure 3a, et se raccorde à la paroi du manchon 6 par une portion courbe 11a.One of these arches, 10a for example, which cooperates with the external lateral edge of the upper batten 3b, is connected to the suspension device 5 by a connecting wall 11. This connecting wall 11, substantially horizontal bears under the lower face of the upper lath 3a, and is connected to the wall of the sleeve 6 by a curved portion 11a.

L'embase 7 du dispositif de suspension comporte également du côté de l'arceau 10b un troisième arceau ou crochet 12 qui est destiné à coopérer avec le bord latéral adjacent de la latte inférieure 4.The base 7 of the suspension device also has on the side of the arch 10b a third arch or hook 12 which is intended to cooperate with the adjacent lateral edge of the lower batten 4.

Le curseur variateur de tension 1, décrit ci-dessus est monobloc et est réalisé de préférence par moulage d'un matériau de type élastomère ou thermoplastique qui assure une raideur suffisante et également une certaine souplesse pour permettre le montage dudit curseur sur un ensemble tri-lattes.The voltage variator slider 1, described above, is monoblock and is preferably made by molding a type of material elastomer or thermoplastic which provides sufficient stiffness and also flexibility to allow the mounting of said slider on a tri-slats assembly.

Les extrémités des trois lattes 3a, 3b et 4 sont encastrées dans des logements d'embouts fixés sur les longueurs d'un sommier.The ends of the three slats 3a, 3b and 4 are embedded in end housing fixed on the lengths of a bed base.

Les dimensions du curseur variateur de tension 1 sont adaptées aux dimensions des lattes 3a, 3b et 4 et de leur écartement au repos.The dimensions of the voltage variator slider 1 are adapted to the dimensions of the slats 3a, 3b and 4 and their spacing at rest.

Pour monter le curseur variateur 1 sur un ensemble de lattes, il faut relever la bande 9, l'arceau 10a jouant alors le rôle d'une charnière, disposer le dispositif de suspension 6 sur la latte inférieure, en positionnant correctement l'arceau inférieur 12 contre la paroi latérale de la latte inférieur 4, puis rabattre la bande 9 au-dessus des lattes supérieures 3a et 3b, la latte 3a se positionnant contre l'arceau 10b, puis, en rapprochant les deux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b, faire passer l'arceau 10b le long du bord latéral extérieur de la latte 3a. Les trois arceaux 10a, 10b et 12 assurent alors un blocage du curseur variateur de tension 1 sur l'ensemble tri-lattes.To mount the dimmer slider 1 on a set of slats, it is necessary to raise the strip 9, the bow 10a then acting as a hinge, to arrange the suspension device 6 on the lower slat, by correctly positioning the bottom bow 12 against the side wall of the lower batten 4, then fold the band 9 over the upper batten 3a and 3b, the batten 3a being positioned against the arch 10b, then, bringing the two upper battens 3a and 3b together, make pass the arch 10b along the outer lateral edge of the batten 3a. The three arches 10a, 10b and 12 then provide a blocking of the voltage variator slider 1 on the tri-slats assembly.

On conçoit que le démontage du curseur variateur de tension se fasse selon un processus inverse, ce qui permet de l'enlever facilement, pour le repositionner à un autre endroit ou sur un autre ensemble tri-lattes sans nécessiter le démontage du sommier.It is understood that the disassembly of the voltage variator slider is done by a reverse process, which allows to remove it easily, to reposition it to another place or another tri-slats without requiring disassembly of the bed frame.

L'épaisseur du curseur variateur de tension 1, c'est-à-dire sa dimension dans la direction des lattes, est indépendante de l'écart d entre les deux lattes supérieures. En outre, l'épaisseur de la bande 9 et l'épaisseur du manchon 6 peuvent être différentes. L'épaisseur du manchon 6, autrement dit sa longueur axiale pourra être choisie en fonction de la raideur souhaitée.The thickness of the voltage variator slider 1, that is to say its dimension in the direction of the slats, is independent of the gap d between the two upper slats. In addition, the thickness of the strip 9 and the thickness of the sleeve 6 may be different. The thickness of the sleeve 6, in other words its axial length may be chosen according to the desired stiffness.

Les figures 3 à 5 montrent un deuxième mode de réalisation de l'invention.Figures 3 to 5 show a second embodiment of the invention.

Le curseur variateur de tension 1 selon ce deuxième mode de réalisation pour un ensemble tri-lattes, ayant deux lattes supérieures 3a, 3b et une latte inférieure 4, comporte également un dispositif de suspension 5, présentant un manchon 6 ayant une embase 7 destinée à reposer sur la latte inférieure 4, et des moyens de fixation 8 comportant une bande 9, terminée à ses extrémités par des arceaux ou crochets 10a, 10b, dont l'un, 10a est relié au manchon 6 par une paroi de liaison 11.The variator voltage slider 1 according to this second embodiment for a tri-slat assembly, having two upper slats 3a, 3b and a lower slat 4, also comprises a suspension device 5, having a sleeve 6 having a base 7 intended for resting on the lower batten 4, and fixing means 8 comprising a band 9, terminated at its ends by arches or hooks 10a, 10b, one of which, 10a is connected to the sleeve 6 by a connecting wall 11.

La bande 9 présente sur ses bords latéraux deux oreilles 13a et 13b qui s'étendent vers le bas et qui sont destinées à loger dans l'espace d séparant les deux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b.The band 9 has on its lateral edges two ears 13a and 13b which extend downwards and which are intended to be housed in the space d separating the two upper battens 3a and 3b.

La paroi supérieure du manchon 6 présente un orifice 14 destiné à recevoir au moins en partie un pion 15 formé en correspondance sous la face inférieure de la bande 9.The upper wall of the sleeve 6 has an orifice 14 intended to receive at least in part a pin 15 formed in correspondence under the lower face of the band 9.

Le manchon 6 présente en outre, sur sa face opposée à la paroi de liaison 11, une languette 16 qui s'étend de manière sensiblement synthétique par rapport à la paroi de liaison 11, qui après montage vient en appui sous la face inférieure de la latte supérieure 3b, en vis-à-vis de l'extrémité 17 de l'arceau 10a.The sleeve 6 further has, on its face opposite to the connecting wall 11, a tongue 16 which extends substantially synthetic relative to the connecting wall 11, which after mounting abuts under the underside of the upper batten 3b, vis-à-vis the end 17 of the arch 10a.

Les oreilles 13a, 13b, le pion 15 et la languette 16 permettent de positionner précisément le dispositif de suspension 5 par rapport aux lattes supérieures 3a et 3b. C'est pourquoi dans ce deuxième mode de réalisation, l'embase 7 ne comporte pas de troisième arceau 12.The lugs 13a, 13b, the pin 15 and the tongue 16 allow precise positioning of the suspension device 5 with respect to the upper slats 3a and 3b. This is why in this second embodiment, the base 7 has no third hoop 12.

Il est à noter que le curseur variateur de tension 1 selon le premier mode de réalisation montré sur les figures 1 à 3 pourrait également comporter des oreilles 13a et 13b et un pion 15 sur la bande 9, et un orifice 14 dans la paroi supérieure du manchon 6.It should be noted that the voltage dimmer slider 1 according to the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 could also comprise lugs 13a and 13b and a pin 15 on the strip 9, and an orifice 14 in the upper wall of the sleeve 6.
