Abstract

Platform adapting to rungs and on which any person may work in safety. A metal frame (0.0), composed of a hollow square metal frame (4), metal angle brackets (3) and an adjustment system for any rung formed of a fixed part (4) and a mobile part (4.5), onto which are welded hooks (1.2.R) adapting onto two rungs, supports either a multiplex floor (0.1), or a floor covered with a thickness of rubber (0.2), or wire netting (0.3) according to the user. To prevent the frame from bending under the weight of the person on the platform, two reinforcements (4.1) are provided. The system composed of a fixed part (4) and a mobile part (4.5) is tilted to keep the platform level relative to the ladder.<IMAGE>

  Description Plate-forme s'adaptant aux échelons et sur laquelle toute personne peut travailler en sécurité La présente invention entre dans le domaine des échelles disponibles sur le marché et consiste en une plate-forme qui s'adapte aux échelons et sur laquelle quiconque peut travailler en toute sécurité. 



  A l'heure actuelle, nous connaissons sur le marché, des échelles constituées de deux montants reliés entre eux par des barreaux transversaux régulièrement espacés et servant de marches. 



  Ces échelons, par leur forme et leur structure, n'offrent pas la stabilité, la sécurité et le confort requis par les utilisateurs, qu'ils appartiennent à un corps de métier ou non. 



  La présente invention vise à résoudre le problème d'instabilité, d'insécurité et d'inconfort que représente le fait de se trouver sur une échelle. 



  Elle concerne une plate-forme constituée d'un plancher ou d'un grillage monté sur un châssis métallique comprenant un système de réglage auxquels sont soudés des crochets pouvant s'adapter à n'importe quel échelon. 



  La figure annexée à titre d'exemple permet de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caractéristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle offre. 

 <Desc/Clms Page number 2> 

 La figure 1 représente le squelette de l'invention constituée d'un châssis métallique (0.0) qui supporte un plancher multiplex (0.1) et qui s'adapte sur n'importe quel échelon. 



  La figure 1 reprend une variante du plancher (0.2) qui est recouvert d'une épaisseur en caoutchouc anti-dérapant qui isole de la terre et destiné à l'usage spécifique des électriciens. 



  La figure 1 reprend également un grillage anti-dérapant (0.3) qui s'incorpore dans le châssis métallique et destiné à l'usage spécifique des maçons ou autres. 



  La figure 1 représente une plate-forme de travail constituée d'un châssis métallique (0.0) supportant soit un plancher multiplex (0.1), soit un plancher recouvert d'une épaisseur en caoutchouc (0.2) ou un grillage (0.3) suivant l'usage auquel on la destine, et qui s'adapte aux échelons aux moyens de crochets. 



  Cette invention offre les avantages de pouvoir travailler sur une échelle en toute sécurité et confortablement. 



  Elle répond aux besoins spécifiques de différents utilisateurs (ménagères, peintres, électriciens, maçons, ardoisiers,...) d'échelle et peut donc être commercialisée pour différents secteurs (privé ou public). 



  De par sa structure, elle est sécurisante, robuste et fiable et est peu encombrante.

  Description Platform adapting to the rungs and on which anyone can work safely The present invention enters the field of ladders available on the market and consists of a platform which adapts to the rungs and on which anyone can work safely.



  At present, we know on the market, scales made up of two uprights connected to each other by regularly spaced transverse bars and serving as steps.



  These steps, by their shape and structure, do not offer the stability, security and comfort required by users, whether they belong to a trade or not.



  The present invention aims to solve the problem of instability, insecurity and discomfort that being on a ladder represents.



  It relates to a platform consisting of a floor or a mesh mounted on a metal frame comprising an adjustment system to which hooks are welded which can adapt to any step.



  The attached figure by way of example makes it possible to better understand the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it offers.

 <Desc / Clms Page number 2>

 Figure 1 shows the skeleton of the invention consisting of a metal frame (0.0) which supports a multiplex floor (0.1) and which adapts to any level.



  Figure 1 shows a variant of the floor (0.2) which is covered with a thickness of non-slip rubber which insulates from the ground and intended for the specific use of electricians.



  Figure 1 also shows a non-slip grid (0.3) which is incorporated in the metal frame and intended for the specific use of masons or others.



  Figure 1 shows a work platform consisting of a metal frame (0.0) supporting either a multiplex floor (0.1), or a floor covered with a rubber thickness (0.2) or a mesh (0.3) depending on the use for which it is intended, and which adapts to the rungs by means of hooks.



  This invention offers the advantages of being able to work on a ladder safely and comfortably.



  It meets the specific needs of different users (housewives, painters, electricians, masons, slate workers, ...) of scale and can therefore be marketed for different sectors (private or public).



  Due to its structure, it is secure, robust and reliable and takes up little space.

Claims

Claims A working platform that can be adapted to the rungs consisting of a metal frame (0.0) including a floor (0. 1- 0.2) or a wire mesh (0.3).

The metal frame (0.0) is made up of three parts.

The first part consists of a hollow square metal frame (4).

It is provided with two reinforcements (4.1) for its stability and security.

It also includes four finishing plugs (7) placed in the 4 corners.

At the front of the metal frame, there is a stop consisting of a metal bracket (8) raised relative to the floor, this in order to prevent the user from sliding towards the front of the platform.

Inside the hollow metallic frame (4) is placed either a multiplex wooden floor (0.1), or a multiplex floor covered with a rubber thickness (0.2), or a mesh (0.3).

These will be fixed to the brackets (3) by means of screws (6).

The second part consists of 4 metal brackets (3) used to fix and support the different floors or fences.

The third part consists of an adjustment system for any level. This system is composed of a movable part formed by solid metal bars (4.5) which slide into the fixed part which is formed by hollow metal bars (4) forming an integral part of the hollow square metal frame (4). <Desc / Clms Page number 4>

This adjustment system is fitted with reinforced solid metal hooks (1.

2. R). Two hooks belong to the fixed part and hang on a rung, two hooks belong to the mobile part and hang on a lower rung.

The solid metal bars of the movable part (4.5) are held by a full square metal transverse bar (4.5. 1).

This part is inclined to be level with respect to the inclination of the scale (0.0. 1).
