Description

La présente invention a pour objet un dispositif de présentation d'objets plans tels que photographies, dessins, reproductions ou autres objets à deux dimensions.The present invention relates to a presentation device flat objects such as photographs, drawings, reproductions or others two-dimensional objects.

Il est bien connu de présenter des objets plans à deux dimensions tels que des photos, des images, des textes et autres documents analogues à l'aide de cadres. De manière classique, ces cadres possèdent une feuillure. Une plaque avant transparente et une plaque arrière opaque et rigide reposent contre cette feuillure. L'objet à présenter est inséré entre ces deux plaques.It is well known to present planar objects in pairs dimensions such as photos, images, texts and others similar documents using frames. Typically, these frames have a rebate. A transparent front plate and a plate opaque and rigid rear rest against this rebate. The object to present is inserted between these two plates.

Il n'existe pas à ce jour de dispositif permettant de véritablement personnaliser ou décorer la présentation de l'objet plan encadré.To date, there is no device allowing truly personalize or decorate the presentation of the plan object Box.

Or, il pourrait être intéressant, à des fins décoratives, de personnaliser les objets plans encadrés.However, it could be interesting, for decorative purposes, to customize the framed plan objects.

Le document GB-A-215 837 divulgue un cadre de photographies muni de lames de ressort qui plaquent une photographie contre la vitre du cadre interdisant toute possibilité de personnalisation de l'objet présenté.Document GB-A-215 837 discloses a frame of photographs fitted with spring leaves which press a photograph against the glass of the framework prohibiting any possibility of personalization of the object presented.

Le document US-A-4 261 122 décrit un cadre qui permet de dissimuler des objets en arrière d'un objet d'art présenté. Les objets placés dans le cadre sont donc invisibles.Document US-A-4 261 122 describes a framework which makes it possible to conceal objects behind a displayed art object. Objects placed in the frame are therefore invisible.

La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients et propose un dispositif de présentation d'objets à deux dimensions permettant de personnaliser ce dernier.The present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks and offers a device for presenting objects in two dimensions to customize it.

Le dispositif concerné comprend de manière connue en soi un cadre, possédant une face avant et une face arrière, la face arrière présentant sur sa bordure intérieure une feuillure dans laquelle sont placées une plaque transparente et une plaque formant dos rigide et opaque, un objet à deux dimensions à présenter étant inséré entre ces deux plaques et des moyens de serrage étant prévu pour presser la plaque formant dos contre la feuillure.The device concerned comprises in a manner known per se a frame, having a front face and a rear face, the rear face having on its inner border a rebate in which are placed a transparent plate and a back plate rigid and opaque, a two-dimensional object to be presented being inserted between these two plates and clamping means being provided for pressing the back plate against the rebate.

Selon l'invention, le cadre présente des moyens de positionnement situés à distance de la feuillure du coté de la face avant du cadre, et le dispositif comprend une deuxième plaque transparente étant maintenue par les dits moyens de positionnement et des objets tridimensionnels décoratifs sont placés dans l'espace existant entre les deux plaques transparentes.According to the invention, the frame has means of positioning located at a distance from the rebate on the side of the front face of the frame, and the device includes a second transparent plate being held by said positioning means and objects decorative three-dimensional are placed in the space between the two transparent plates.

L'invention permet donc de réaliser un dispositif de présentation d'objets plans tels que photos ou dessins en avant desquels sont insérés des objets tridimensionnels décoratifs tels que des coquillages, des galets, des fleurs sèches ou des objets décoratifs personnels tels que des lettres, des bagues qui personnalisent ainsi le dispositif de présentation et constituent un décor attractif complétant l'objet présenté.The invention therefore makes it possible to produce a presentation device flat objects such as photos or drawings in front of which are inserted decorative three-dimensional objects such as shells, pebbles, dry flowers or personal decorative items such as letters, rings that personalize the presentation device and constitute an attractive decoration complementing the object presented.

Grâce aux deux plaques transparentes situées à distances l'une de l'autre les objets tridimensionnels contenus entre ces dernières ne sont pas en contact avec la photo ou le dessin exposé de sorte que ceux-ci sont protégés de possibles rayures.Thanks to the two transparent plates located at a distance one on the other, the three-dimensional objects contained between them are not not in contact with the photo or drawing exposed so these are protected from possible scratches.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, le cadre est constitué de profilés possédant chacun un épaulement de sorte que, lorsque les profilés sont assemblés pour former le cadre, ces épaulements forment une feuillure sur la bordure intérieure du cadre contre laquelle repose la plaque transparente recouvrant l'objet représenté.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the frame is made up of profiles each having a shoulder so that, when the profiles are assembled to form the frame, these shoulders form a rebate on the inner border of the frame against which rests the transparent plate covering the object shown.

Avantageusement, les moyens de positionnement précités sont constitués par des rainures aménagés dans les profilés constituant le cadre, ces rainures étant conformées, lorsque les profilés sont assemblés, pour recevoir le bord de la plaque recouvrant les objets tridimensionnels décoratifs.Advantageously, the aforementioned positioning means are formed by grooves arranged in the profiles constituting the frame, these grooves being shaped, when the profiles are assembled, to receive the edge of the plate covering three-dimensional objects decorative.

Lors de l'assemblage des profilés, les bords de la plaque transparente recouvrant les objets tridimensionnels décoratifs sont insérés dans les rainures aménagées dans les profilés de sorte que la cette plaque est parfaitement calée dans le cadre.When assembling the profiles, the edges of the plate transparent covering decorative three-dimensional objects are inserted in the grooves in the profiles so that the this plate is perfectly wedged in the frame.

Dans un mode de réalisation avantageux de l'invention, les moyens de positionnement sont constitués d'un épaulement, aménagé dans chacun des profilés constituant le cadre, contre lequel s'appuie la plaque transparente et d'une entretoise dont l'une des extrémités retient la plaque transparente et l'autre extrémité forme une feuillure sur la bordure intérieure du cadre contre laquelle repose la première plaque transparente.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, the positioning means consist of a shoulder, arranged in each of the profiles constituting the frame, against which the transparent plate and a spacer, one end of which retains the transparent plate and the other end forms a rebate on the border inside the frame against which the first transparent plate rests.

Ce mode de réalisation de l'invention permet une fabrication industrielle de l'invention d'une manière particulièrement aisée. This embodiment of the invention allows manufacturing industrial invention of a particularly easy way.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le dispositif de présentation comprend quatre profilés en bois assemblés pour former un cadre quadrangulaire.According to another characteristic of the invention, the device for presentation includes four wooden profiles assembled to form a quadrangular frame.

De préférence, les moyens de serrages sont constitués de pattes de serrage déformables entre une position ouverte permettant la mise en place de la plaque transparente, de l'objet à présenter et de la plaque de fond contre l'épaulement et une position rabattue pressant la plaque de fond contre l'épaulement.Preferably, the tightening means consist of deformable clamping tabs between an open position allowing the installation of the transparent plate, the object to be presented and the bottom plate against the shoulder and a folded position pressing the bottom plate against the shoulder.

La mobilité des pattes de serrage permet de retirer l'ensemble formé par la plaque de fond, l'image à présenter et la plaque transparente pour accéder aux objets tridimensionnels et ainsi pour en changer le contenu.The mobility of the clamping legs allows the assembly to be removed formed by the bottom plate, the image to be presented and the transparent plate to access three-dimensional objects and thus to change the content.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention l'un des profilés constituant le cadre est amovible permettant d'accéder à l'espace compris entre les plaques transparentes.According to another characteristic of the invention, one of the profiles constituting the frame is removable allowing access to the space included between the transparent plates.

Selon un mode de réalisation particulièrement avantageux, le dispositif de présentation d'objets à deux dimensions fait partie d'un ensemble comprenant, outre lui-même, une pièce pour son support dans une position légèrement inclinée par rapport à la verticale.According to a particularly advantageous embodiment, the two-dimensional object presentation device is part of a assembly comprising, in addition to itself, a part for its support in a slightly inclined position relative to the vertical.

De préférence la pièce de support comprend un socle parallélépipédique surmonté de deux butées parallèles l'une par rapport à l'autre et espacées l'une par rapport à l'autre d'une distance légèrement supérieure à l'épaisseur du cadre, entre lesquelles le cadre est inséré.Preferably the support piece comprises a base parallelepipedic surmounted by two parallel stops, one with respect to each other and spaced from each other by a distance slightly greater than the thickness of the frame, between which the frame is inserted.

Grâce à cette pièce de support, le dispositif de présentation peut être maintenu de manière simple dans une position quasi verticale.Thanks to this support piece, the presentation device can be easily held in an almost vertical position.

Avantageusement les deux butées sont de hauteurs inégales, une butée de plus grande hauteur contre laquelle s'appuie la face arrière du cadre, une butée de plus faible hauteur contre lequel s'appuie la face avant du cadre.Advantageously, the two stops are of unequal heights, a stop of greater height against which the rear face of the frame, a lower height stop against which the front face rests of the frame.

La hauteur supérieure de l'une des butées par rapport à l'autre permet de maintenir un dispositif de présentation d'une hauteur relativement importante sans basculement de ce dernier.The higher height of one of the stops relative to the other allows to maintain a presentation device of a height relatively large without tilting of the latter.

Avantageusement au moins un des plots est situé sur le socle en retrait par rapport à l'extrémité de celui-ci. Advantageously at least one of the studs is located on the base set back from the end of it.

Cette disposition des butées permet de compenser le moment de la force de gravité qui s'exerce au centre de gravité du dispositif de présentation et tend à le faire basculer.This arrangement of the stops makes it possible to compensate for the moment of the force of gravity exerted at the center of gravity of the presentation and tends to tip it over.

L'invention est décrite ci-après en référence au dessin ci-annexé représentant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation d'un dispositif de présentation selon l'invention.The invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawing representing, by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of a presentation device according to the invention.

La figure 1 est une vue écorchée en perspective de l'invention.Figure 1 is a cutaway perspective view of the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue en coupe de l'invention en cours d'assemblage.Figure 2 is a sectional view of the invention in progress assembly.

La figure 3 est une vue similaire à la figure 2 après montage.Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2 after assembly.

La figure 4 est une vue en coupe d'une variante de réalisation de l'invention.Figure 4 is a sectional view of an alternative embodiment of the invention.

La figure 5 est une vue en coupe de l'ensemble comprenant le dispositif de présentation selon l'invention et la pièce de support.Figure 5 is a sectional view of the assembly comprising the presentation device according to the invention and the support piece.

Comme le montre la figure 1, le dispositif de présentation selon l'invention comprend quatre profilés de bois 1, de mêmes longueurs deux à deux, dont les extrémités sont coupées en biseau à 45°.As shown in Figure 1, the presentation device according to the invention comprises four wooden sections 1, the same lengths two to two, the ends of which are cut at a 45 ° bevel.

Chaque profilé possède un épaulement 2 et une rainure 3 parallèle à l'épaulement et situé à distance de dernier, tel que cela apparaít en coupe aux figures 2 et 3.Each profile has a shoulder 2 and a groove 3 parallel to the shoulder and located at a distance from the last, as it appears in section in Figures 2 and 3.

Des pattes de serrage 4 sont disposées sur le bord de l'épaulement 2 situé dans le plan perpendiculaire au plan du cadre. Les pattes 4 sont mobiles par déformation entre une position ouverte et une position de verrouillage.Clamping tabs 4 are arranged on the edge of the shoulder 2 located in the plane perpendicular to the plane of the frame. The legs 4 are movable by deformation between an open position and a locking position.

Les quatre profilés sont assemblés, selon leurs extrémités en biseau, pour former un cadre 5 de telle sorte que les épaulements 2 de chacun des profilés se trouvent dans un même plan et forment une feuillure 6 ininterrompue sur la bordure intérieure du cadre et que les rainures 3 se trouvent dans un même plan.The four profiles are assembled, according to their ends in bevel, to form a frame 5 so that the shoulders 2 of each of the profiles are in the same plane and form a rebate 6 uninterrupted on the inner border of the frame and that the grooves 3 are in the same plane.

Lors de l'assemblage de trois des quatre profilés 1 formant le cadre 5, une plaque transparente 8 est insérée dans les rainures 3. L'assemblage du quatrième profilé permet de réaliser le calage de la plaque transparente 8.When assembling three of the four profiles 1 forming the frame 5, a transparent plate 8 is inserted in the grooves 3. The assembly of the fourth profile makes it possible to wedge the plate transparent 8.

Des objets tridimensionnels 9 tels que galets ou coquillages peuvent être disposés contre la plaque transparente 8. Three-dimensional objects 9 such as pebbles or shells can be arranged against the transparent plate 8.

Une seconde plaque transparente 10 vient prendre appui contre la feuillure 6 formée par les épaulements 2 des profilés 1 emprisonnant ainsi les objets 9 entre les deux plaques transparentes 8 et 10.A second transparent plate 10 comes to bear against the rabbet 6 formed by the shoulders 2 of the profiles 1 trapping thus the objects 9 between the two transparent plates 8 and 10.

Un objet plan 11 à présenter tel qu'une photo ou un dessin est placé entre la plaque transparente 10 et une plaque de fond opaque 12. Les pattes 4 sont ensuite rabattues sur la plaque 12 pour retenir contre la feuillure 6 l'ensemble formé par la plaque 12, l'objet plan à exposer 11 et la plaque transparente 10.A planar object 11 to be presented such as a photo or a drawing is placed between the transparent plate 10 and an opaque bottom plate 12. The legs 4 are then folded back onto the plate 12 to retain against the rebate 6 the assembly formed by the plate 12, the planar object to be exposed 11 and the transparent plate 10.

La figure 4 illustre une variante de réalisation de l'invention, dans laquelle chaque profilé 1 possède un épaulement 15 de sorte que lorsque les profilés 1 sont assemblés les épaulements 15 se trouvent dans un même plan. La plaque transparente 8 vient en appui contre les épaulements 15.FIG. 4 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the invention, in which each profile 1 has a shoulder 15 so that when the profiles 1 are assembled the shoulders 15 are in the same plan. The transparent plate 8 comes to bear against the shoulders 15.

Une entretoise 16 est disposée contre la face de chaque profilé 1 tournée vers l'intérieur du cadre 5, de telle sorte que l'une des extrémités de l'entretoise 16 retient la plaque transparente 8 et l'autre extrémité forme une feuillure 6 ininterrompue contre laquelle la plaque transparente 10 vient s'appuyer.A spacer 16 is disposed against the face of each profile 1 facing inside the frame 5, so that one of the ends of the spacer 16 retains the transparent plate 8 and the other end forms an uninterrupted rebate 6 against which the transparent plate 10 comes lean.

Le volume ainsi défini entre la plaque transparente 8 et la plaque transparente 10 permet de recevoir des objets 9 qui personnalisent et enrichissent l'objet présenté qui se trouve derrière la plaque transparente 10.The volume thus defined between the transparent plate 8 and the plate transparent 10 allows to receive objects 9 which personalize and enrich the object presented behind the transparent plate 10.

Comme cela apparaít sur la figure 5, le dispositif de présentation est disposé sur une pièce de support. Celle-ci comprend un socle parallélépipédique 13 surmonté de deux butées parallèles l'une par rapport à l'autre et de hauteurs inégales, une butée 14 de hauteur supérieure à celle d'une seconde butée 15. La butée 14 se trouve en retrait de l'extrémité du socle.As shown in Figure 5, the presentation device is arranged on a support piece. This includes a base rectangular 13 surmounted by two parallel stops, one with respect to to the other and of unequal heights, a stop 14 of height greater than that of a second stop 15. The stop 14 is set back from the end of the base.

Le dispositif de présentation peut être placé sur la pièce de support de telle sorte que la face arrière de dispositif s'appuie contre la butée 14 et la face avant de ce dernier est retenu par la butée 15.The presentation device can be placed on the workpiece support so that the rear face of the device rests against the stop 14 and the front face of the latter is retained by stop 15.

L'invention fournit ainsi un dispositif de présentation d'objet plan qui permet la personnalisation de l'objet plan présenté par des objets tridimensionnels tout en étant d'une structure facile à produire industriellement. The invention thus provides an object presentation device plan which allows the customization of the plan object presented by objects three-dimensional while being easy to produce industrially.

Il va de soi que l'invention n'est pas limitée à la forme de réalisation décrite ci-dessus à titre d'exemple mais qu'elle en embrasse, au contraire, toutes les variantes de réalisation.It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the form of realization described above by way of example but that it embraces, at on the contrary, all the variant embodiments.

C'est ainsi qu'il est notamment envisageable de prévoir des moyens de positionnement de la plaque transparente retenant les objets tridimensionnels permettant le retrait de celle-ci par la face avant du cadre pour accéder à ces objets et par exemple pour les changer ou les réarranger.This is how it is in particular possible to envisage providing means for positioning the transparent plate retaining the objects three-dimensional allowing removal thereof by the front face of the frame to access these objects and for example to change them or rearrange.
