DISPOSITIF DE PROTECTION DES TERRES CONTRE LES NUISIBLES
NOTAMMENT LES RAGONDINS
La présente invention concerne un agencement formant barrière aux nuisibles en particulier aux ragondins, ledit agencement étant particulièrement écologique et permettant l'utilisation de déchets industriels difficilement recyclables.PROTECTION DEVICE FOR LANDS AGAINST PESTS
ESPECIALLY THE CURRANTS
The present invention relates to an arrangement forming a barrier to pests, in particular nutria, said arrangement being particularly ecological and allowing the use of industrial waste which is difficult to recycle.
On sait que certains nuisibles tels que les ragondins vivent dans les milieux marécageux et pour le moins humides comme les bordures de rivière ou de lacs ou encore de fossés. We know that certain pests such as nutria live in marshy and at least humid environments such as the edges of rivers or lakes or ditches.
Ce type de rongeur pénètre souvent par les berges dans lesquelles il creuse des galeries tandis qu'il se nourrit des graines et des plants cultivés en surface. This type of rodent often enters through the banks in which it digs galleries while it feeds on seeds and plants cultivated on the surface.
Les exploitants agricoles subissent des dégâts très importants pour ceux dont les terres sont situées dans des zones propices et ils cherchent des moyens pour lutter contre un tel fléau. Farmers are suffering very serious damage to those whose land is located in suitable areas and they are looking for ways to combat such a scourge.
Les barrières en bois ne résistent pas aux dégradations commises par de tels rongeurs et la destruction massive de ces animaux est très difficile voire impossible. The wooden barriers do not resist the degradation committed by such rodents and the mass destruction of these animals is very difficult if not impossible.
On comprend que la destruction des plants est une chose mais que la destructuration des fossés par la dégradation des berges est un problème supplémentaire. En effet, les fossés ou plus généralement les berges sont entretenues et régulièrement nettoyées ou curées, pour permettre un bon écoulement des eaux. We understand that the destruction of plants is one thing but that the destruction of ditches by the degradation of the banks is an additional problem. Indeed, the ditches or more generally the banks are maintained and regularly cleaned or cleaned, to allow a good flow of water.
Les éboulements provoqués par les creusements des ragondins viennent contrarier le bon écoulement des eaux, donc le bon drainage des terres avec tout ce que cela peut engendrer de conséquences dommageables. The landslides caused by the nutria digs interfere with the good flow of water, therefore the good drainage of the land with all that this can cause damaging consequences.
L'invention a pour but de permettre une lutte efficace contre de tels nuisibles en proposant un dispositif de protection des terres contre les nuisibles, notamment contre les ragondins, qui se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend des colonnes de pneumatiques usagés superposés par leur flancs, lesdites colonnes étant juxtaposées verticalement ou légèrement inclinées, formant barrière mécanique. The invention aims to allow an effective fight against such pests by providing a device for protecting the land against pests, in particular against nutria, which is characterized in that it comprises columns of used tires superimposed by their sidewalls , said columns being juxtaposed vertically or slightly inclined, forming a mechanical barrier.
Plus particulièrement, les colonnes sont disposées en quinconce et tangentes les unes aux autres. More particularly, the columns are staggered and tangent to each other.
Selon un perfectionnement, chaque colonne comprend un pieu formant axe central de la colonne et en ce que chaque colonne est emplie de matériau de remblais dans sa partie creuse intérieure. According to an improvement, each column comprises a pile forming the central axis of the column and in that each column is filled with fill material in its inner hollow part.
Dans le cas d'une installation contre les berges d'un fossé, les axes des colonnes sont inclinés suivant la pente des berges. In the case of an installation against the banks of a ditch, the axes of the columns are inclined according to the slope of the banks.
La présente invention est décrite ci-après, selon un mode de réalisation particulier, non limitatif, en regard des dessins annexés sur lesquels les différentes représentent
figure 1, une vue en perspective du mode de réalisation préférentiel du
dispositif selon l'invention,
figure 2A, une vue en coupe transversale du dispositif de la figure 1,
figure 2B, une vue de dessus du dispositif de la figure 1,
figure 3A, une vue d'une variante de réalisation du dispositif de la
figure 1, vue en coupe transversale, et
figure 3B, une vue de dessus de la variante de la figure 3A.The present invention is described below, according to a particular, nonlimiting embodiment, with reference to the appended drawings in which the various represent
Figure 1, a perspective view of the preferred embodiment of the
device according to the invention,
FIG. 2A, a cross-sectional view of the device of FIG. 1,
FIG. 2B, a top view of the device of FIG. 1,
FIG. 3A, a view of an alternative embodiment of the device of the
Figure 1, cross-sectional view, and
Figure 3B, a top view of the variant of Figure 3A.
Sur la figure 1A, on a représenté un fossé 10 avec une berge 12, généralement inclinée, pour favoriser l'écoulement de l'eau et la stabilité de la terre. In Figure 1A, there is shown a ditch 10 with a bank 12, generally inclined, to promote the flow of water and the stability of the earth.
Le fond du fossé est référencé 14 tandis que le champ 16, contigu au fossé, est cultivé et comporte des plants 1 8 symbolisés sur les différentes figures. The bottom of the ditch is referenced 14 while the field 16, contiguous to the ditch, is cultivated and includes plants 1 8 symbolized in the different figures.
Le dispositif proprement dit comprend un ensemble 20 de colonnes 22 de pneumatiques usagés 24, superposés par leurs flancs. The device proper comprises a set 20 of columns 22 of used tires 24, superimposed by their sidewalls.
Ces colonnes sont parfaitement rectilignes en sorte que les bandes de roulement des pneus constituent une enveloppe cylindrique. II faut éviter les escaliers qui au contraire faciliteraient l'accès aux rongeurs. These columns are perfectly straight so that the tire treads form a cylindrical envelope. Steps should be avoided which, on the contrary, would facilitate access to rodents.
Suivant un perfectionnement, on prévoit de placer plutôt le dernier pneumatique, au sommet de la colonne, en surplomb par rapport au pneumatique inférieur pour créer un obstacle supplémentaire. According to an improvement, provision is made instead to place the last tire, at the top of the column, overhanging with respect to the lower tire to create an additional obstacle.
Pour faciliter la superposition des pneumatiques, il est possible de recourir à des pieux 26, disposés au centre des pneumatiques, formant l'axe de la colonne, qui sont sensiblement parallèles à la berge 1 2 du fossé. To facilitate the superposition of tires, it is possible to use piles 26, arranged in the center of the tires, forming the axis of the column, which are substantially parallel to the bank 12 of the ditch.
Les pneumatiques sont ensuite emplis de remblais in situ, généralement de la terre, après que le pieu a été enfoncé dans la terre, pour stabiliser l'ouvrage. The tires are then filled with in situ fill, usually earth, after the pile has been driven into the earth, to stabilize the structure.
Les colonnes sont ainsi réalisées le long de la berge, juxtaposées les unes aux autres, comme le montre la figure 2B. The columns are thus produced along the bank, juxtaposed to each other, as shown in Figure 2B.
Outre l'avantage de renforcer la résistance des berges face à l'érosion, le demandeur s'est aperçu de façon surprenante que les rongeurs n'attaquent pas les pneumatiques, d'une part, sans doute à cause du caoutchouc vulcanisé qui est très résistant à l'abrasion par fabrication même et grâce à des charges ajoutées pour améliorer la résistance à l'usure et à cause de l'armature à câbles noyée dans la matrice caoutchouc. In addition to the advantage of reinforcing the resistance of the banks against erosion, the applicant has surprisingly noticed that rodents do not attack tires, on the one hand, probably because of the vulcanized rubber which is very abrasion resistant by manufacturing itself and thanks to fillers added to improve wear resistance and because of the cable reinforcement embedded in the rubber matrix.
On constate aussi que l'ouvrage peut être démonté si besoin est. We also note that the structure can be dismantled if necessary.
Quant aux opérations de réalisation et de positionnement de telles colonnes, elles sont possibles par tout entrepreneur équipé de moyens de manutention relativement simples. As for the operations of making and positioning such columns, they are possible by any entrepreneur equipped with relatively simple handling means.
En variante, on a prévu de disposer les colonnes en quinconce, ce qui améliore encore la stabilité de l'ouvrage, on se reporte aux figures 3A et 3B pour mieux comprendre encore la disposition envisagée. As a variant, provision has been made to arrange the columns in staggered rows, which further improves the stability of the structure, reference is made to FIGS. 3A and 3B for a better understanding of the arrangement envisaged.
A nouveau, on peut recourir à l'utilisation de pieux comme dans l'agencement précédent, ce qui outre l'effet d'alignement et de centrage des pneumatiques, permet un ancrage dans le sol, évitant ainsi de voir riper l'une ou l'autre des colonnes, même en cas de circulation d'eau dans le fossé, ceci en plus du poids de terre disposé dans la colonne. Again, it is possible to resort to the use of piles as in the previous arrangement, which in addition to the alignment and centering effect of the tires, allows anchoring in the ground, thus avoiding seeing one or the other of the columns, even in the event of water circulation in the ditch, this in addition to the weight of soil placed in the column.
Selon une autre variante, on peut aussi disposer les colonnes verticalement, à même le sol, y compris dans les endroits où il n'y a pas de fossé. Dans ce cas, la barrière réalisée est tout aussi efficace. According to another variant, the columns can also be placed vertically on the ground, including in places where there is no ditch. In this case, the barrier produced is just as effective.
On peut remarquer que le choix des pneumatiques est réalisé en fonction du diamètre extérieur mais surtout, il est nécessaire de constater qu'un tel agencement ne requiert aucune intervention sur les pneumatiques pour les mettre en forme ou pour leur adjoindre un quelconque élément complémentaire de fixation ou de liaison. It can be noted that the choice of tires is made as a function of the outside diameter but above all, it is necessary to note that such an arrangement does not require any intervention on the tires to shape them or to add any additional fixing element to them. or liaison.
On comprend que le coût d'une telle réalisation est très peu élevé et qu'il permet l'utilisation de déchets industriels non valorisés comme les pneumatiques. It is understood that the cost of such an embodiment is very low and that it allows the use of non-recovered industrial waste such as tires.
On peut également perfectionner cette réalisation en ajoutant un film en matière plastique disposé entre les pneus et la face sensiblement verticale de la berge. Ce perfectionnement permet d'assurer une étanchéité complémentaire qui peut s'avérer nécessaire dans certains cas particuliers. This can also be improved by adding a plastic film placed between the tires and the substantially vertical face of the bank. This improvement makes it possible to ensure an additional seal which may prove necessary in certain particular cases.
