    [0001] The present invention relates to the context of the surface coating, in particular in the field of trim parts or trim for vehicle interiors, and relates to a process for pattern and texture printing on a surface, a installation for the implementation of this method and a part obtained by this method. Currently the demands in terms of surface appearance of pieces are more and more varied and are not limited to the considerations of visual appearance, but also include effects related to touch and play with light (glitter, mat / brilliant, moire, ...), namely surface conditions or surface textures particular and pleasant and / or surprising to the touch and the eye. The search for a matte appearance and / or a matte / shiny effect, which soften the decoration, hide fingerprints and are easier to clean, is also topical.
    [0002] In addition, there is also a desire to give the decor or image visible on the surface a certain depth of field or 3D effect. Finally, another strong demand from manufacturers and users relates to decorations more resistant to scratching and friction. These trends have notably developed recently in the field of trim and trim parts for motor vehicles. However, existing existing techniques for making this type of surface are complex and expensive and do not provide a quality rendering, especially in terms of color intensity, durable over time. These known techniques make use in particular of structured molding techniques and of posterior coloring (possibly with a final layer of protective varnish), of printing on skin with posterior overmolding, of splashing or colored patterns (e) s in a skin, or transfer during the molding of the room. Numerous inkjet printing techniques are also known from surfaces of complex three-dimensional shapes, for example by the documents WO 2008/064248, DE 10 2012 006 371, EP 2196 267, DE 10 2009 040. 959, WO 2010/069286 and JPH 075 2525. Nevertheless, decorations, images, patterns or the like produced by these techniques provide no noticeable relief texture.
    [0003] In addition, surface relief formation techniques are known by depositing successive layers, similarly to 3D printing, these layers possibly being colored or not. Nevertheless, the means required are complex and expensive and the choice of colors is limited, thereby limiting the possibilities of visual rendering. Finally, structured or textured surfaces can also be obtained by other techniques, either during molding of the part by using a mold etched in a suitable manner, or after molding the part by etching its surface with a laser or else applying a layer of paint or similar dyestuff containing mutually-controlling particles or chemical compounds to form grains, particles or similar concretions. In addition to being able to provide only a monochromatic surface, with a single defined brightness, the latter techniques are respectively non-flexible, time-consuming and uncontrollable (in terms of shaped reliefs). The aforementioned lack of flexibility concerns in particular the design, the profile, the shape, the thickness and / or the matt / glossy rendering of the texture or decoration obtained.
    [0004] The present invention is intended in particular to overcome the main drawbacks of the aforementioned known solutions, and to overcome their major limitations. To this end, the subject of the invention is a process for coating or covering, optionally with specific coloration, an apparent face of a body with simultaneous formation of a structured surface comprising protruding formations, in particular grained or with relief texturing or the like, by means of a device for depositing substance (s) liquid (s) in droplets, in particular by jet, characterized in that it consists, for each site concerned 35 of the face to be printed, to deposit successively at least two, preferably at least three superimposed layers of a first substance selected, optionally depending on the characteristics of the face 3033506 - 3 - of the body to be printed, in the group formed by a primer , a varnish, an adhesion or adhesion promoter and a coating agent, preferably white or transparent and, optionally, at least one second substance of the type coloring substance or mixture of coloring substances, each of the successive layers being formed by depositing individual and distinct droplets, arranged in each layer in a predetermined pattern and preferably with a predetermined offset of the pattern between successive layers, immediately consecutive and adjacent or not, in the layering of layers.
    [0005] The invention will be better understood from the following description, which refers to preferred embodiments, given by way of non-limiting examples, and explained with reference to the accompanying diagrammatic drawings, in which: FIG. is a cross-sectional view of two raised, triangular section and ten superimposed relief colored formations forming part of a textured surface attached to the visible face of a body or a workpiece by the method and the installation according to the invention, the droplets forming the superimposed layers (ten layers) being schematically represented by way of illustration for a better visualization of the production of the constituent layers; Figure 1B is a cross-sectional view similar to that of Figure 1A, of a raised relief formation, rectangular section and nine superimposed layers, according to an alternative embodiment of the invention; Figs. 1C and 1D are cross-sectional views similar to that of Fig. 1B of relief colored formations, with truncated triangular sections, respectively at eight and seven superimposed layers; FIGS. 2A to 2D are cross-sectional views similar to those of FIGS. 1A and 1B of superposed three-layered relief formations, either colored (FIGS. 2A to 2C - with varied alternations of colored and transparent layers), or transparent (Figure 2D - application only of layers of the first substance); FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C are top views respectively of two complementary deposition frames (for deposition in two passes or successive phases) of droplets of dye or ink (FIGS. 3A and 3B) and the resulting pattern droplets forming the layer 3033506 - 4 - concerned (Figure 3C), according to one embodiment of the invention; FIGS. 4A, 4B and 4C are top views similar to those of FIGS. 3A to 3C respectively of the two complementary elementary and deposition frames of the two populations of droplets (FIGS. 4A and 4B) and of the final pattern of deposition of the droplets of the layer concerned (FIG. 4C), in accordance with another embodiment of the invention; FIGS. 5A-51 illustrate the principal successive steps of alternate deposition of droplet layers on the face of a body to result in a colored protuberant formation, similar to those shown in FIG. 1A, a first step of applying a primary before the step shown in FIG. 5A and / or a final step of covering the formation with a transparent protective layer (possibly using a substance identical to that forming one of the two sets of layers or using another substance ) after the step shown in Figure 51 may possibly be provided (not shown); FIGS. 6A, 7A, 8A, 9A, 10A and 11A are diagrammatic representations of five alternative embodiments of the two essential functional components of an installation for carrying out the method according to the invention; FIGS. 6B, 7B, 8B, 9B, 10B and 11B are diagrammatic representations illustrating the relative displacement between the part to be printed and the device for depositing droplets of colored substance or the like, in relation with the installations represented in FIGS. 6A, 7A. 8A, 9A, 10A and 11A respectively, and FIG. 12 is a plan elevational view of a workpiece comprising relief formations according to the invention, obtained through the method and by means of installations according to the invention.
    [0006] The figures of the accompanying drawings, and more particularly FIGS. 3, 4 and 5, at least partially illustrate a method of coating or covering, optionally with specific coloration, an apparent face 1 'of a body 1 with simultaneous production. of a structured surface 2 comprising protruding formations or structures 2 ', in particular grained or having relief texturing or the like, by means of a device 3 for depositing substance (s) liquid (s) in droplets 4, 4 ', 5, especially by jet. According to the invention, this method consists, for each site 1 "concerned of the face to be printed, to deposit successively at least two, preferably at least three layers 6, 6 'superimposed of a first selected substance, optionally depending on the characteristics of the face of the body to be printed, in the group formed by a primer, a varnish, an adhesion or adhesion promoter and a coating agent, preferably white or transparent and, optionally at least one second substance of the dyeing material or dyeing substance type, each of the successive layers 6, 6 'being formed by depositing individual and distinct droplets 4, 4', 5, arranged in each layer in a pattern predetermined and preferentially with a determined offset of the pattern between successive layers, immediately consecutive and adjacent or not, in the superposition of layers 6, 6 '. As a deposit of layers 6, 6 ', a phase 15 (preferably active) of drying / crosslinking / polymerization more or less thorough is advantageously carried out, the degree of drying / crosslinking / polymerization depending for example on the nature of the substance deposited last and / or the rank of the layer 6, 6 'considered. The primary object of the invention, namely to provide a strong textured surface, is thus obtained by implementing a method similar to that of droplet jet printing, more commonly referred to as "ink jet printing". . The invention is therefore based on a relatively inexpensive deposit technique, proven and well known to those skilled in the art.
    [0007] In addition, the process according to the invention based on this deposition technique has many advantages, among which in particular: great flexibility in terms of shape, profile, thickness and color of the decorative patterns and textures obtained, high resistance of the latter to scratching, abrasion and friction, as well as the possibility of offering different degrees of gloss / dullness. In accordance with a first variant of embodiment showing, as an example of the result obtained, of Figure 2D, it can be expected that all the layers 6; 6 'superimposed are formed exclusively of a first transparent substance, high adhesion and having high abrasion resistance and high hardness after solidification. This variant is appropriate when the color, the decorative pattern and the surface condition of the apparent face 1 'of the body 1 must be preserved and be visible. The droplets deposited in a pattern or a deposition pattern determined at each layer 6 'may be of the same size or at least two different sizes. In accordance with a second embodiment variant, which is preferred and illustrated in FIGS. 1A, 1B, 1C, 1D, 2A to 2C and 5A to 51, the various superposed layers 6, 6 'consist alternately of a first substance and of a second substance, in particular successively and alternately a layer of transparent lacquer or resin (e) 6 'or the like and a layer of coloring substance (s) 6.
    [0008] The combination, on the one hand, of the alternation of layers 6 of colored or coloring substance and of functional and structuring layers 6 '(hooking, adhesion, aggregation, hardening, consolidation) and, on the other hand, of a formation in individual and distinct droplets of each layer 6, 6 '(improved inter-layer bonding, non-smooth interfaces), makes it possible to achieve, by a synergic effect, structures or colored formations in relief presenting a very high resistance to tearing off , abrasion, scratches, impacts and impacts and friction. In addition, an improvement in the visual rendering, in particular a noticeable increase in the intensity of the colors, has also been observed, in particular because of the multiple superposition of colored layers. Matification has also been found to be substantially proportional to the number of colored layers of the texture, resulting in controlled matt / glossy resulting effects. Depending on the nature and characteristics of the face and the properties sought first, the first layer deposited on the latter may be a colored layer 6 or a functional layer 6 '(transparent or not).
    [0009] Preferably, the first layer deposited on the face 1 to be coated is a layer 6 'formed of droplets 5 of the first substance, preferably a substance providing adhesion or adhesion reinforced with the material of the face V. Advantageously in order to increase the visual rendering of the colors, this first layer 6 'may be white in color or at least clear, while the other layers 6' are transparent. Advantageously, the last layer deposited, or topcoat, is a layer 6 'formed of droplets 5 of the first or third substance, preferably varnish or transparent resin. The substance forming the latter layer is preferably of a type enabling the production of a transparent protective coating, this substance being deposited, in terms of surface area and quantity, so as to encapsulate, in cooperation with the intermediate layers, all the previous layers 6, 6 '(at their slices), and therefore the formation 2' considered (see Figures 1C, 1D and 2). The intermediate functional layers 6 'may advantageously protrude laterally with respect to the respectively underlying colored layers 6, so as to cover the lateral edges (slices) of the latter and thus form, together, a protective layer 15 on the flanks of the projecting formations. 2 '. Of course, the same substance, for example of the transparent varnish type, can form the first layer 6 '(hooking), the intermediate functional layers 6' and the last layer 6 '(of protection). Nevertheless, the first layer 6 'may also consist of a specific layer of primer (for example white), different from the intermediate layers 6' transparent (interposed between the colored layers 6), the final coating layer (or encapsulation) being of the same nature as the layers 6 'intermediate or of different types. In order to avoid, with the accumulation of the layers 6, 6 ', the emergence of cavities and peaks in the formations 2', and at the same time to favor the attachment between successive layers 6, 6 'by physical nesting, it can be intended to shift two successive layers of the same type between them of a fraction, for example of half or third, of the pitch of the pattern, this depending in particular on the total number of layers and the number of different substances deposited, the pattern being preferentially the same for all the layers 6, 6 '. In order to promote adhesion between successive layers 6, 6 ', the method may consist of depositing each new layer 6, 6' before the previous layer 6, 6 'is completely crosslinked or solidified, especially when said previous layer presents still at the surface a sticky effect, each layer being advantageously subjected immediately after deposition to an active and controlled phase of crosslinking or solidification before application of the next layer 6, 6 '. Depending on the nature of the substance forming a layer 6, 6 'and the rank of this layer 6, 6' in all of the layers 6, 6 'to be deposited, different modes of drying / crosslinking / polymerization of droplets 4, 4 'deposited may be envisaged, if necessary before deposition of the following layer 6, 6': - crosslinking / surface polymerization ("pirming": anchoring) for the bonding layer, first layer or layer 10 primary cover (white), as well as for layers 6 of dyestuff subsequently deposited; - Cross-linking / core polymerization ("curing") of the layers of first substance or functional layers 6 'intermediate and final (varnish); A final crosslinking / polymerization phase of all the deposited layers 6, 6 ', after deposition of the upper cover / overlap layer (last layer), to ensure the coherence of all the superimposed layers. According to one embodiment of the invention providing optimized results, the method consists in depositing at least the first layer 6, preferably all the layers 6, of coloring substance (s) in the form of several populations of droplets 4 , 4 'of different sizes or not, applied simultaneously or successively on the face of the body 1 to be printed and arranged in at least two frames 7, 25 7' complementary, nested one inside the other and forming together the pattern of the layer 6 considered. These different populations of droplets can of course be deposited for each layer 6 at the same time. However, in accordance with a preferred variant of this embodiment, particularly apparent from FIGS. 3 and 4, the two populations of droplets 4 and 4 'forming a layer 6 have different sizes and are deposited successively on the previous layer 6'. . As also shown in the figures above, and according to an additional characteristic, the different droplets 4, 4 'of coloring substance (s) of the same layer 6 (possibly belonging to different populations) are substantially adjacent to each other. other, each population of droplets 4, 4 'being arranged according to a given frame 7, 7', for example in mutually spaced or staggered rows, the frames 7, 7 'of the two populations of the same layer 6 being complementary and the ratio of volumes between the droplets 4, 4 'of the two populations being between 2 and 5, preferably of the order of 5 3. To achieve a deposit of high precision, including a well-defined spatial configuration, the method may consist, for each layer 6 of coloring substance (s), first to drop the small droplets 4 (spaced apart), then to carry out a crosslinking ation or partial solidification of the latter (freezing their shape) and then to drop the droplets 4 'large. The frames of small droplets 4 thus form a positioning mesh for holding the large droplets 4 'avoiding their displacement and their spreading, and keeping their shape until they are crosslinked. The addition of the frames 7 and 7 'makes it possible to substantially continuously cover the entire surface, with a redundant covering from two colored layers 6. When the coloring substances are UV inks (for example: white, black, cyan, yellow, magenta) the freezing of the droplets 4 can be achieved by UV (LED) drying and their complete crosslinking as well as that of the 4 'droplets is obtained by UV curing. In accordance with an optional feature of the invention, which can be seen, for example, from FIGS. 2, it is possible to deposit at least the first layer 6 ', preferably all the layers 6' formed of droplets 5 of the first substance. of the type of adhesion, adhesion or coating agent, preferably transparent, according to the same procedure, in particular in terms of size and arrangement of the droplets 5, that the layers 6 of coloring substance (s) . The technical and characteristic features in terms of different populations of droplets, their arrangement in the deposition pattern and their deposition chronology mentioned above in relation to droplets 4, 4 'of second substance can therefore also be applied to and checked by droplets of first substance. Nevertheless, the layers 6 'of structuring, adhesive and protective first substance (for example of varnish or resin) may possibly be formed only of droplets 5 of the same size (with a loose arrangement between successive layers 6 '- see figures 1 and 5). The method according to the invention also makes it possible to create relief structures 2 'having variable section profiles compatible with the required structural cohesion requirements. Thus, Figure 1B shows a section of substantially rectangular shape. Nevertheless, given the physical attacks to which these relief structures 2 'can be exposed, shapes without salient angles or with progressive profiles are preferred. Thus, although the various formations 2 'reported on the face 1' may have sections with varying heights, lengths and angles of attack a (with the face 1 '), it is preferable that the angle a (see Figure 1) is less than about 30 °, preferably at most 20 °. The height of the formations 2 'can, in turn, in practice and depending on the number of layers 6, 6' deposited, generally vary between a few tens of am and several hundreds of am. For this purpose, it can be provided, as shown by way of example in FIGS. 5, of gradually reducing the surface size of the superimposed successive layers 6, 6 ', so as to obtain structures or formations in relief 2', colored or transparent, which have side faces inclined at an acute angle to their base resting on the face 1 ", so as to present in cross section in a transverse vertical plane a substantially triangular or arcuate shape; s) material (x) of the layers 6 'formed by the first or third substance overlying the laterally visible edge or slice 6 "of the immediately underlying first substance layers 6 respectively.
    [0010] Depending on the circumstances of the process and the purpose to be achieved, various parameters are to be considered and calibrated previously. Thus, the method may consist in adjusting beforehand the contact angle of the droplets 4, 4 '; 5, the total number of layers 6, 6 'superimposed and / or the number of droplets 4, 4'; 5 per unit area to achieve a desired height of structure or textured relief formation 2, the face 1 of the body 1 to be printed being advantageously subjected to a treatment in order to adjust its surface tension before the deposition of the first layer 6, 6 'of substance (s) dye (s) or first substance. The droplets of second or third substance are typically of a single size, for example a size identical to that of the large droplets 4 'of colored substance (FIGS. 1A, 1C and 1D). For example, large droplets 4 'may for example have a volume of about 42 picoliters and small droplets 4 a volume of about 14 picoliters.
    [0011] The distance between rows of droplets 4, 4 'of the same type may be of the order of about 140 μm, for a print density of 360 dpi. With these values, the formations 2 'shown in FIG. 1, comprising nine superposed layers, have a height of approximately 120 μm and a contact angle with the face of approximately 200 μm. The information necessary for producing the structured surface 2 can be provided in different ways and in different forms. Preferably, it may be provided to operate pre-established digital printing files, and function of the desired structured surface 2, to achieve the droplet patterns 4, 4 '; 5 of each layer 6, 6 'of substance (s) colored (s) and / or first substance, preferably all layers 6, 6', or complementary frames 7, 7 'forming these patterns, and to optionally adjust Other print parameters specific to each or some of the layers 6, 6 '. Advantageously, the invention provides a three-dimensional representation of the face (to be printed) of at least the body 1, preferably by acquisition of its shape, while said body 1 is installed on a support device 8 used during printing. , for example by 3D laser scanning, before establishment of the digital printing files, in particular for the treatment of a series of identical bodies 1. With regard to the practical implementation of the process, the latter may consist of depositing all the droplets 4, 4 '; 5 of the different layers 6, 6 'with a single composite printing head 3' or an arrangement of a plurality of different printing heads 3 ', comprising a plurality of ejection orifices calibrated and controlled as a function of the nature and quantity of substance to be projected, said print head or said arrangement, on the one hand, and said face to be printed, on the other hand, being displaceable relatively to one another; other in at least two directions perpendicular to each other, where appropriate three mutually perpendicular directions when the face to be printed is non-planar, the ejection of droplets 4, 4 '; 5 and the relative movements being for example controlled and controlled on the basis of information from digital printing files.
    [0012] The invention also relates, as shown by way of examples of different embodiments of FIGS. 6A to 11A, to a relief printing installation for implementing the aforementioned method. In accordance with the invention, this installation comprises, on the one hand, a spraying device 3 in the form of droplets 4, 4 '; A first substance selected from the group consisting of a primer, a varnish, an adhesion or adhesion promoter and a coating agent, preferably white or transparent, and preferably at least one second substance of the substance type; dye or mixture of 20 coloring substances. This projection device 3 comprises a single composite print head 3 'or an arrangement of several distinct printing heads 3', each comprising a plurality of ejection orifices calibrated and controlled according to the nature and the quantity. of the substance to be sprayed. The installation comprises, on the other hand, a support device 8 for the body 1, the apparent face of which is to be printed, and finally, hardware and software means capable of providing control of the projection and relative movement and controlled between the projection device 3, more precisely the head or heads 3 'of the latter, and the support device 8 according to an amplitude and directions fixed by the structured surface to obtain.
    [0013] Figures 6 to 10 schematically illustrate different embodiments of an installation for implementing the inkjet relief printing method according to the invention. The printing operation itself may be preceded by operations for preparing the face 1 of the body 1, whether or not provided with an initial layer of paint, a skin or the like. Thus, a deionization treatment, followed by a treatment, for example by effluvia, flame, corona, plasma, UV or by application of a primer, to adjust the surface tension ( wettability) and thus control the contact angle of the droplets of the first layer at least. Likewise, after the printing operation, at least one cooking / drying operation can be provided.
    [0014] All of these treatments can be performed in a booth which also contains the inkjet printing facility. In addition, the preparatory phases also advantageously include the production of digital printing files by acquisition of the 3D form of the body 1 (for example movement of the body 10 during a laser scanner), and then mapping a decoration, image or analogue in the form of a file on the digital representation of the face 1 of the body 1, possibly cutting the hybrid virtual representation (in zones corresponding to different sides of the body 1) and obtaining digital printing files that can be used by the installation .
    [0015] Finally, one or more subsequent posterior operations for varnishing or surface-sealing may also be provided, capable of covering the formations 2 ', and possibly the entire face 2', with a transparent protective layer, in addition to or instead of a last layer 6 'of second substance applied by the inkjet printing apparatus 20 according to the invention. In this regard, FIGS. 6A and 6B illustrate a first constructive variant in which the body 1 is carried by a robot 8 with six axes and is moved in the XZ plane at a constant distance from the print head 3 '(for example 3 mm), this head 3 'being displaced by a linear motor 25 along the Y axis (definition of contiguous printing strips of 10 mm width for example). In FIGS. 7A and 7B, the body 1 is moved by the six-axis robot arm 8 as in the example of FIGS. 6A and 6B. On the other hand, the large printing width print heads 3 'remain fixed and together cover the width of the printing area of the V-face. In FIGS. 8A and 8B, the six-axis robot arm 8 moves the body according to the Z axis by incrementing (10 mm band), while the print head 3 'sweeps back and forth along the Y axis. In the example of FIGS. 9A and 9B, the robot arm 8 to three axes 35 moves the body 1 in the XZ plane (with preservation of the distance with the projection device), while the different printing heads 3 'realize, in a single pass along the Y axis, the deposit droplets 4, 4 'or 3033506 - 5 - of a layer 6 or 6' or a frame 7 or 7 'over the entire area of the face 1 to be printed. In the example of FIGS. 10A and 10B, the body 1 is fixedly mounted on a static support and the projection deposition device 3 with one or more printing heads 3 'is mounted on a robot arm 8 comprising between 3 and 6 axes, depending on the three-dimensional shape of the face to be printed. This embodiment of the installation is particularly suitable for printing a limited area only of the body 1.
    [0016] Finally, in the example illustrated in FIG. 11A, the body 1 is movably mounted on a support means 8 allowing a displacement in the space of said body 1, the multiple printing head 3 'being able to remain fixed. Finally, the invention also aims, as partially shown in Figures 1, 2 and 12, a functional and / or decorative part, including a motor vehicle interior trim part, comprising a base body or substrate 1 and, at the level of from its apparent face the, a surface 2 textured and possibly colored, characterized in that the textured surface 2 is obtained by means of the method described above, preferably using the aforementioned installation. Such a piece may, for example, comprise a bare substrate, covered with a skin or a layer of paint, constituting the body 1 with its apparent face on which is formed the structured surface 2. The type of parts referred to can include, for example: covers, hubcaps, rods, bands, dashboards, integrated equipment facades or the like. As an example of deposition of layers 6, 6 'in connection with the method according to the invention, it is possible for example to provide (possibly in connection with the use of a Kinolta Minolta print head): a layer of white covering: 360 DPI, droplets of 21 or 42 pL; - for a color layer (CMYB or CMJK): 75 DPI, droplets of 18 μL; for a layer of 360 DPI varnish, droplets of 42 μL. The spacing between droplets of the same pattern may be of the order of 140 μm, for example. With regard to the drying phase with a view to the crosslinking / polymerization of the droplets 6, 6 'of the various layers, it is possible to provide: - for anchoring ("pirming"): a power of 5 W / cm 2 approximately 5 for a heart treatment: a power of about 12 W / cm2; for a final treatment of all the layers: a power of approximately 160 W / cm 2.
    [0017] The other hardware and process control parameters are in the field of professional knowledge of those skilled in the art. Various tests and tests carried out with parts obtained by implementing the process according to the invention have shown the advantageous properties and the performances of the textured surfaces comprising relief formations made according to the invention with at least two, preferably with at least two three layers superimposed. Thus, among the positive results of conformity tests for applications in the automotive field (interior clothing), mention may be made in particular of: - resistance to abrasion scratching (in particular according to D42 1775); the resistance to scratching by brightening (in particular according to D44 1900); - the resistance to friction (duration: 2 hours - in particular according to D14 1055); - resistance to grid tests (verification of adhesion - in particular according to D25 1075). The evaluation of these tests was performed using gray scale according to NF EN 20105 A 025.
    [0018] The tests and tests carried out also made it possible to observe, in the aforementioned examples, a difference (increase) in mattness as a function of an increasing number of deposited layers. A certain degree of gloss, or even the initial gloss of the first layer or surface, can be obtained at the level of the colored layers beyond the first, by modifying the droplet deposition pattern and / or the parameters or conditions. drying and crosslinking. Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown in the accompanying drawings. Modifications are possible, in particular from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without departing as much from the field of protection of the invention.
