Description

L'invention concerne le domaine du mobilier d'intérieur.The invention relates to the field of indoor furniture.

Elle concerne plus particulièrement un dispositif permettant de créer des meubles simples en récupérant des bouteilles vides et des planches.It relates more particularly to a device for creating simple furniture by recovering empty bottles and boards.

Dans le cadre de la préservation des ressources naturelles et de la réduction de déchets, des solutions doivent être trouvées pour recycler des objets usagés et leur utilisation à de nouvelles fonctions. En particulier les bouteilles en verre peuvent certes être consignées et réutilisées, mais il arrive que le système fonctionne mal, et que beaucoup de bouteilles finissent dans les récupérateurs de verre, ou même dans les poubelles.In the context of preserving natural resources and reducing waste, solutions must be found to recycle used objects and their use to new functions. In particular glass bottles can certainly be recorded and reused, but sometimes the system works poorly, and many bottles end up in glass reclaimers, or even in garbage cans.

Il existe bien des essais pour faire une lampe de chevet à partir d'une bouteille usagée, d'une douille et d'un abat-jour. Mais cela reste assez compliqué à réaliser, et il n'y a pas de solution simple d'assemblage entre ces éléments.There are many tests to make a bedside lamp from a used bottle, a socket and a lampshade. But it is quite complicated to realize, and there is no simple solution of assembly between these elements.

La présente invention se propose de remédier à au moins une partie des inconvénients précités et propose une solution qui permette d'utiliser des bouteilles usagées pour fabriquer des étagères, des tables basses ou autres.The present invention proposes to remedy at least some of the aforementioned drawbacks and proposes a solution that allows the use of used bottles to make shelves, coffee tables or other.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne un dispositif comprenant une bouteille munie d'un goulot et d'un renflement à l'extérieur dudit goulot, et un connecteur. Ce dispositif est particulier en ce que ledit connecteur comprend un corps muni d'un embout configuré pour s'introduire dans la partie intérieure du goulot de la bouteille, de griffes, configurées pour se positionner à l'extérieur du goulot de la bouteille et s'agripper audit renflement, ledit connecteur comprend en outre un écrou configuré pour serrer lesdites griffes sur le goulot, de sorte à maintenir fermement ledit connecteur sur le goulot de ladite bouteille et un moyen de fixation configuré pour permettre la fixation dudit connecteur sur un autre dispositif selon l'invention ou sur un autre objet.To this end, the invention relates to a device comprising a bottle provided with a neck and a bulge outside said neck, and a connector. This device is particular in that said connector comprises a body provided with a nozzle configured to be introduced into the inner part of the neck of the bottle, claws, configured to be positioned outside the neck of the bottle and s gripping said bulge, said connector further comprises a nut configured to clamp said claws on the neck, so as to firmly hold said connector on the neck of said bottle and a fixing means configured to allow attachment of said connector to another device according to the invention or another object.

Ainsi le dispositif selon l'invention permet grâce au connecteur d'assembler la bouteille à d'autres bouteilles ou à d'autres objets, pour la fabrication par exemple de mobilier d'intérieur.Thus, the device according to the invention makes it possible, thanks to the connector, to assemble the bottle to other bottles or to other objects, for the manufacture of, for example, indoor furniture.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques :

  • lesdites griffes sont au nombre de 6, de préférence au nombre de 12,
  • le goulot de la bouteille comprend deux renflements, et lesdites griffes s'agrippent entre les deux renflements de ladite bouteille ; une telle disposition améliore la fiabilité de l'attache entre la bouteille et le connecteur,
  • lesdites griffes comportent un renflement intérieur destiné à se positionner entre les deux renflements du goulot de la bouteille, pour améliorer encore la fiabilité de l'attache,
  • ledit corps comprend un disque situé à son extrémité éloignée de la bouteille, ledit disque étant muni de stries, de sorte à présenter une prise pour les opérations d'assemblage,
  • ledit écrou est destiné à être enfilé dans le goulot avant la mise en place de l'embout sur le goulot, puis vissé sur corps, et comporte une face conique destinée à s'appuyer sur l'extrémité desdites griffes de sorte à appuyer celles-ci sur l'extérieur du goulot de la bouteille,
According to other characteristics:
  • said claws are 6 in number, preferably 12 in number,
  • the neck of the bottle comprises two bulges, and said claws cling between the two bulges of said bottle; such an arrangement improves the reliability of the fastener between the bottle and the connector,
  • said claws comprise an interior bulge intended to be positioned between the two bulges of the neck of the bottle, to further improve the reliability of the fastener,
  • said body comprises a disk located at its end remote from the bottle, said disk being provided with ridges, so as to present a grip for assembly operations,
  • said nut is intended to be threaded into the neck before the insertion of the nozzle on the neck, then screwed on body, and has a conical face intended to bear on the end of said claws so as to support those on the outside of the neck of the bottle,

La présente invention concerne encore un ensemble comprenant une planche et au moins un dispositif selon l'invention, et constituant une pièce de mobilier intérieur.The present invention further relates to an assembly comprising a board and at least one device according to the invention, and constituting a piece of indoor furniture.

Selon d'autres caractéristiques :

  • ledit ensemble peut comprendre au moins deux dispositifs, les deux connecteurs desdits deux dispositifs étant fixés l'un à l'autre, ledit moyen de fixation étant un trou taraudé, dans lequel une tige filetée peut être fixée, et ladite tige filetée traverse ladite planche de sorte que les goulots des deux bouteilles se font face,
  • les connecteurs peuvent être configurés pour que ladite tige filetée pénètre plus profondément dans l'un des connecteurs que dans l'autre, de préférence ledit trou taraudé étant borgne ; ainsi le connecteur dans lequel la tige filetée pénètre plus profondément peut être celui du premier dispositif, sur lequel on viendra fixer ladite planche et le deuxième dispositif,
  • ledit ensemble peut comprendre trois ou quatre bouteilles surmontée d'une planche percée de sorte à laisser passer les tiges filetées associées aux bouteilles, et trois ou quatre bouteilles correspondantes situées au-dessus de ladite planche, et une planche non percée posée sur le fond de ces bouteilles, de préférence ladite planche non percée étant munie de patins antidérapants à l'endroit de leur contact avec le fond des bouteilles, formant ainsi un module d'étagères.
According to other characteristics:
  • said assembly may comprise at least two devices, the two connectors of said two devices being fixed to each other, said fixing means being a tapped hole, in which a threaded rod can be fixed, and said threaded rod passes through said board so that the necks of the two bottles face each other,
  • the connectors may be configured so that said threaded rod penetrates deeper into one of the connectors than in the other, preferably said tapped hole being one-eyed thus the connector in which the threaded rod penetrates more deeply can be that of the first device, on which one will fix said board and the second device,
  • said set may comprise three or four bottles surmounted by a pierced board so as to let through the threaded rods associated with the bottles, and three or four corresponding bottles located above said board, and a non-pierced board placed on the bottom of these bottles, preferably said non-pierced board being provided with anti-slip pads at the point of their contact with the bottom of the bottles, thus forming a shelf module.

L'avantage découlant de la présente invention consiste en ce que le dispositif selon l'invention donne la possibilité de concevoir et fabriquer une variété de formes de mobilier d'intérieur ou autre, en utilisant des bouteilles usagées vides, ou remplies de liquide coloré dans un but décoratif, et de simples planches neuves ou de récupération.The advantage of the present invention is that the device according to the invention gives the possibility to design and manufacture a variety of forms of indoor furniture or other, using empty bottles empty, or filled with colored liquid in a decorative purpose, and simple new boards or recovery.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront de la description détaillée qui va suivre se rapportant à un exemple de réalisation donné à titre indicatif et non limitatif.Other features and advantages of the invention will emerge from the following detailed description relating to an exemplary embodiment given by way of indication and not limitation.

La compréhension de cette description sera facilitée en se référant aux dessins joints, dans lesquels :

  • La figure 1 représente un connecteur selon l'invention en position prêt à être monté au goulot d'une bouteille en verre de 20 cl.
  • La figure 2 représente, en vue partiellement éclatée, un ensemble de 4 dispositifs selon l'invention et deux planches, formant un élément de mobilier d'intérieur.
The understanding of this description will be facilitated with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
  • The figure 1 represents a connector according to the invention in position ready to be mounted at the neck of a glass bottle of 20 cl.
  • The figure 2 represents, in a partially exploded view, a set of 4 devices according to the invention and two boards, forming an element of indoor furniture.

Un dispositif selon l'invention comprend un connecteur 1 et une bouteille 4. Le connecteur 1 comprend un corps 2, et un écrou 3.A device according to the invention comprises a connector 1 and a bottle 4. The connector 1 comprises a body 2, and a nut 3.

Le diamètre du trou arrière 11 de l'écrou 3 présente un diamètre légèrement inférieur au diamètre des renflements 5 du goulot 6 de la bouteille 4. Un assemblage en force est donc effectué afin d'assurer un maintien plus fiable des écrous 3 sur les bouteilles 4 (une fois installés, les écrous 3 se trouvent sur la partie lisse du goulot 6).The diameter of the rear hole 11 of the nut 3 has a diameter slightly less than the diameter of the bulges 5 of the bottle neck 4. A force assembly is therefore performed to ensure a more reliable maintenance of the nuts 3 on the bottles 4 (once installed, the nuts 3 are on the smooth portion of the neck 6).

Ensuite l'embout 7 du corps 2 est introduit dans la partie intérieure du goulot 6.Then the tip 7 of the body 2 is introduced into the inner portion of the neck 6.

Dans le même temps, les griffes 8, dont le nombre peut varier de 2 à 12 par connecteur 1 et qui sont légèrement inclinées vers l'intérieur du corps 2 doivent se fixer dans le creux situé entre les deux renflements 5 du goulot 6. Ainsi, grâce au serrage de l'écrou 3 qui va venir se visser sur le filetage extérieur 9 du corps 2 et appuyer sur la tête 16 des griffes 8 à l'aide de la partie conique 10 intérieure de l'écrou 3, l'ensemble sera en place et solidaire.At the same time, the claws 8, the number of which can vary from 2 to 12 per connector 1 and which are slightly inclined towards the interior of the body 2, must be fixed in the hollow situated between the two bulges 5 of the neck 6. by tightening the nut 3 which will come to screw on the external thread 9 of the body 2 and press the head 16 of the claws 8 by means of the conical portion 10 of the inner nut 3, the assembly will be in place and solidarity.

Il suffit ensuite de fixer en force la tige filetée 12 sur le corps 2 grâce à son trou taraudé 13.Then just force the threaded rod 12 on the body 2 through its threaded hole 13.

Le corps 2 comporte à l'extrémité opposée à l'embout 7 un disque 17, qui peut avoir une épaisseur plus ou moins importante et être équipé de stries afin d'offrir une prise plus facile pour aider au serrage de la tige filetée 12 et des écrous 3.The body 2 comprises at the end opposite the endpiece 7 a disc 17, which may have a greater or lesser thickness and be equipped with ridges to provide an easier grip to help tighten the threaded rod 12 and nuts 3.

Il ne reste plus alors qu'à passer la tige filetée 12 qui est solidaire, depuis son serrage en force, du connecteur 1 dans le trou 15 préalablement percé dans une planche 14, le trou 15 étant de diamètre légèrement supérieur au diamètre de la tige filetée 12 afin de faciliter son passage sans problème. Le nombre de trous est fonction du nombre de dispositifs à installer.All that remains then is to pass the threaded rod 12 which is secured, since it is tightened in force, of the connector 1 in the hole 15 previously drilled in a board 14, the hole 15 being of diameter slightly greater than the diameter of the rod Threaded 12 to facilitate its passage without problem. The number of holes depends on the number of devices to install.

On peut alors assembler un autre connecteur 1 en le fixant grâce à son propre trou taraudé 13 sur la tige filetée 12, les deux connecteurs ainsi assemblés formant une paire de connecteurs, et fixant les bouteilles 4 sur la planche 14, on obtient alors en fonction du nombre de connecteurs 1 utilisés et du nombre de bouteilles 4 et de planches 14 souhaité diverses applications : étagères, tables, consoles...One can then assemble another connector 1 by fixing it with its own threaded hole 13 on the threaded rod 12, the two connectors thus assembled forming a pair of connectors, and fixing the bottles 4 on the board 14, one then obtains the number of connectors 1 used and the number of bottles 4 and boards 14 desired various applications: shelves, tables, consoles ...

Les écrous repère 3 doivent avoir un taraudage correspondant au filetage extérieur 9 des corps 2 afin de pouvoir assurer le serrage dans des conditions optimales.The marker nuts 3 must have a thread corresponding to the external thread 9 of the body 2 in order to ensure clamping in optimal conditions.

D'autre part, l'écrou 3 peut avoir une face conique 10, et ce afin d'appuyer lors du serrage sur les extrémités 16 des griffes 8.On the other hand, the nut 3 may have a conical face 10, and this to support when clamping on the ends 16 of the claws 8.

Ces griffes 8 peuvent chacune avoir un léger renflement (non représenté) côté intérieur pour pouvoir, lors du serrage de l'écrou 3 contre leur extrémité 16, se positionner entre les renflements 5 des goulots 6 afin d'assurer un serrage fiable des griffes 8 sur le goulot 6 et de maintenir la bouteille 4 droite à l'endroit comme à l'envers, et de l'empêcher de se libérer.These claws 8 may each have a slight bulge (not shown) on the inner side to be able, when tightening the nut 3 against their end 16, to be positioned between the bulges 5 necks 6 to ensure a reliable clamping claws 8 on the neck 6 and keep the bottle 4 straight upside down and prevent it from breaking free.

La tige filetée 12 fait le lien entre les connecteurs 1. La connexion de la tige filetée 12 s'effectue grâce aux trous taraudés 13 des corps 2 qui constituent un moyen de fixation du dispositif, configuré pour permettre la fixation du connecteur 1 sur un autre dispositif selon l'invention ou sur un autre objet.The threaded rod 12 makes the connection between the connectors 1. The connection of the threaded rod 12 is done through the threaded holes 13 of the body 2 which constitute a means of fixing the device, configured to allow the attachment of the connector 1 to another device according to the invention or another object.

La première connexion se fait sur l'un des corps 2. Son trou taraudé 13 peut être borgne pour des raisons mécaniques expliquées ci-après, et/ou pour des raisons esthétiques, par exemple pour assurer l'étanchéité dans le cas où l'on souhaite introduire un liquide coloré dans la bouteille 4. Sa profondeur est inférieure en longueur par rapport au trou taraudé 13 de l'autre corps 2. Comme le trou taraudé est borgne la tige filetée 12 pourra être serrée en force dans le fond du trou taraudé 13 et deviendra donc solidaire du connecteur 1.The first connection is made on one of the bodies 2. Its threaded hole 13 can be blind for mechanical reasons explained below, and / or for aesthetic reasons, for example to ensure tightness in the case where the it is desired to introduce a colored liquid in the bottle 4. Its depth is shorter in length relative to the threaded hole 13 of the other body 2. As the tapped hole is blind the threaded rod 12 can be clamped in force in the bottom of the hole tapped 13 and thus become integral with the connector 1.

Ensuite seulement la tige filetée 12 pourra passer dans la planche 14 via un trou 15 percé au préalable et se fixer sur l'autre connecteur 1 par son trou taraudé 13.Then only the threaded rod 12 can pass into the board 14 via a hole 15 previously drilled and attach to the other connector 1 by its threaded hole 13.

La profondeur du trou taraudé 13 du corps 2 du deuxième connecteur 1 est supérieure pour permettre un réglage d'épaisseur : cela permet en effet de donner le choix entre plusieurs épaisseurs de planches 14, par exemple entre 2 mm et 30 mm approximativement. Ce trou taraudé 13 ne débouche pas non plus, il est borgne, en particulier pour des raisons esthétiques. Le montage de la deuxième bouteille 4 sur ce connecteur 1 se fait bien entendu comme pour le premier. Les deux dispositifs forment ainsi un ensemble constitué d'une planche 14, d'une tige filetée 12, de deux bouteilles 4 et d'une paire de connecteurs 1.The depth of the tapped hole 13 of the body 2 of the second connector 1 is greater to allow a thickness adjustment: this makes it possible to give the choice between several thicknesses of boards 14, for example between 2 mm and 30 mm approximately. This tapped hole 13 does not open either, it is one-eyed, especially for aesthetic reasons. The assembly of the second bottle 4 on this connector 1 is of course as for the first. The two devices thus form an assembly consisting of a board 14, a threaded rod 12, two bottles 4 and a pair of connectors 1.

Selon la demande, l'écrou 3 du connecteur 1 peut être légèrement modifié en hauteur, largeur et profondeur. Les trous 11 qui servent au passage du goulot 6 peuvent aussi être adaptés en fonction des bouteilles 4 que l'on souhaite utiliser. Néanmoins un très grand nombre de bouteilles 4 sont standardisées au niveau du goulot 6, cette modification n'interviendrait donc qu'exceptionnellement.Depending on the application, the nut 3 of the connector 1 may be slightly modified in height, width and depth. The holes 11 which serve for the passage of the neck 6 can also be adapted according to the bottles 4 that one wishes to use. Nevertheless, a very large number of bottles 4 are standardized at the neck 6, this modification would therefore intervene only exceptionally.

Les embouts 7 peuvent être également modifiés pour les mêmes raisons mais cette fois pour s'adapter au diamètre intérieur du goulot 6 de la bouteille 4.The tips 7 may also be modified for the same reasons but this time to adapt to the inside diameter of the neck 6 of the bottle 4.

Tout ou presque peut de la même manière être adapté en fonction d'une demande particulière, mais les connecteurs 1 selon l'invention ne varient pas dans leur principe de fonctionnement.All or almost the same can be adapted according to a particular request, but the connectors 1 according to the invention do not vary in their operating principle.

Une paire de connecteurs 1 selon l'invention sert donc en particulier à maintenir droites et entre elles, par exemple deux bouteilles 4 vides de 20 cl en verre, l'une à l'endroit, l'autre à l'envers, tout en les fixant sur un support, ici une planche 14. Plus le nombre de paires de connecteurs 1 utilisés est important, plus les possibilités de conception de petits meubles sont vastes.A pair of connectors 1 according to the invention therefore serves in particular to keep straight and between them, for example two empty 4 bottles of 20 cl glass, one at the place, the other upside down, while fixing them on a support, here a board 14. The greater the number of pairs of connectors 1 used, the greater the possibilities of small furniture design.

Sur la fig. 2, on peut voir que les connecteurs 1 se fixent sur les goulots 6 des bouteilles 4 tout en s'accouplant entre eux grâce à la tige filetée 12, qui se visse dans les trous taraudés 13 respectifs des deux connecteurs 1 avant accouplement définitif à travers une planche 14 percée d'un trou 15 dont le diamètre est légèrement supérieur à celui de la tige filetée 12. Une fois le tout assemblé et serré, on obtient un ensemble de deux bouteilles 4 qui se font face, goulot - paire de connecteurs - goulot, entre lesquelles est fixée une planche 14.On the Fig. 2 , it can be seen that the connectors 1 are fixed on the necks 6 of the bottles 4 while mating with each other thanks to the threaded rod 12, which is screwed into the respective threaded holes 13 of the two connectors 1 before final coupling through a board 14 pierced with a hole 15 whose diameter is slightly greater than that of the threaded rod 12. Once all assembled and tightened, we obtain a set of two bottles 4 facing each other, neck - pair of connectors - neck , between which is fixed a board 14.

Le maintien de l'ensemble est suffisant pour supporter sans bouger des poids importants (livres, bibelots...)The maintenance of the whole is enough to support without moving important weights (books, trinkets ...)

En disposant quatre paires de connecteurs, fixés de la même façon sur la même planche à des points bien définis, on obtient un module.By having four pairs of connectors, fixed in the same way on the same board at well defined points, we obtain a module.

Par exemple pour une étagère comportant trois niveaux, il faudra assembler trois modules ; une étagère standard demandera donc les quantités suivantes :

  • 3 ou 4 planches 14 non percées (neuves ou de récupération)
  • 3 planches 14 percées (neuves ou de récupération)
  • 24 bouteilles 4 standard en verre de 20 cl
  • 12 paires de connecteurs selon l'invention
For example for a shelf with three levels, it will assemble three modules; a standard shelf will therefore require the following quantities:
  • 3 or 4 boards 14 not drilled (new or recovery)
  • 3 boards 14 pierced (new or recovery)
