    FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to the field of tensegrity structures.
    It proposes in particular a mechanical assembly forming a support (platform for example) of the type with foldable tensegrity structure.
    It finds particular advantage in the development of temporary structures for access to sites such as tourist sites or bathing places.
    STATE OF THE ART
    Despite an awareness of public authorities to improve the adaptation of tourist sites to people with reduced mobility, we note that in some regions, the seacoast is still difficult to access for this type of user. Indeed, many tourist sites do not offer a structure allowing access to bathing independently.
    Currently, access to the sea for a person with reduced mobility can be done through the use of a specific floating wheelchair that requires outside help.
    For autonomous access, there are fixed structures (www.unfauteuilalamer.com), but by definition they affect the installation site.
    In some areas subject to environmental obligations, non-temporary facilities are not viable solutions. For example, some laws aiming at the protection of the coast impose demountable and transportable structures that do not include any durable anchoring elements on the ground, and that must allow a return of the site to the initial state at the end of the concession.
    Temporary structures such as floating floating pontoons exist (www.belrive.fr/), but these remain unsuitable for maritime coasts for reasons of stability, because they require important anchoring. In addition, the load capacity is relatively low compared to the volume occupied in the disassembled state, limiting their versatility.
    Removable modular solutions for making platforms from scaffolding components are also known. Modular scaffolding systems make it possible to produce any type of platform that can withstand heavy loads, with one-off support. The components must however be adapted to not represent a significant overweight. One-off supports can be numerous and must be adjusted individually. The assembly of a structure implements separate components requiring a large number of operations, such solutions are therefore constraining in installation time and labor.
    There is therefore a need for installation of lightweight, modular, versatile, low environmental impact, easily deployable, and intended for temporary uses.
    Publication WO2005 / 111343 describes a deployable structure that can be assembled with other similar structures to form a facility such as a platform. However, such installations, based on the assembly of identical elementary cells, do not offer flexibility in terms of assembly, thus, the cells can not be of different sizes. In addition, the installation of facilities requires a large number of cell assemblies.
    Installations based on tensegrity structures are also known.
    Tensegrity is the ability of a structure to stabilize by the play of the forces of tension and compression that are distributed and balanced. The structures established in tensegrity state are thus stabilized, not by the strength of each of their constituents, but by the distribution and the balance of the mechanical stresses in the totality of the structure.
    Thus, a mechanical system comprising a discontinuous set of compressed components within a continuum of tense components may be in a stable equilibrium state. This means, for example, that by connecting bars by cables, without directly connecting the bars together, one can build a rigid system.
    Therefore, a tensegrity structure is a cross-linked space system whose rigidity and stability come from the combination of compression in the bars and traction in the cables.
    The publication FR 2823287 describes a tensegrity system in the form of a cross-linked structure with self-stressing of its various components, for producing light structures of the frame, panel or similar type of construction. However, this publication does not describe a notion of modularity, assembly of tensegrity structures to form including temporary platforms in inaccessible areas.
    Such structures have the advantage of being particularly light and therefore easy to set up. They are particularly suitable for environments that we want to preserve.
    The document "Deployable Tensegrity Systems; application to the accessibility of swimming at sea "(J.Averseng, F.Jamin, J.Quirant - Academic Meetings in Civil Engineering, May 2015 - https://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-01167613/document ) discloses a tensegrity, foldable and unfoldable grid structure consisting of a set of bars and nodes connected to each other. The different nodes and bars of this structure are in one piece.
    This structure has the advantage of being deployable on site and allow the realization of stable, lightweight and reusable platforms.
    It is nevertheless complicated handling and implementation when one seeks to realize large platforms.
    There is therefore a need for a mechanical assembly forming a support (platform for example) of the foldable tensegrity structure type which allows the realization of large structures and which is easy to assemble or disassemble.

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF AT LEAST ONE EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
    Referring to Figure 1, there is shown a foldable-unfoldable structural module. Each module is made up of so-called "tensegrity" structures, that is to say a reticular structure formed of a discontinuous network of compressed bars interacting inside a continuous network of tensioned cables, the whole being stabilized by a state of initial constraints. This principle is similar to inflatable systems, formed of a compressed medium (air or other fluid) in equilibrium with a tension envelope.
    As illustrated in FIG. 1, such a structural module comprises a set of bars 10 corresponding to the compressed elements, tensioned cables 20 and tensioners 30 connecting a set of nodes 40.
    The module comprises the assembly of two parallel horizontal plies of nodes 40. Thus, it is represented respectively by FIGS. 2A and 2B, the arrangement of the nodes 40 in a lower ply 2 and in an upper ply 3. In each of the plies, the nodes 40 are connected by a network of ribbon cables 20a.
    The topology of the module, representing the assembly of plies 2 and 3, is inspired by weaving: a network of compressed elements, formed of subsets of bars 10 alternately connecting nodes 40 from one ply to the other, like the warp and weft threads that form the fabrics.
    The peripheral cables 20b and 20c located at the periphery of the module also allow the connection of the two plies 2 and 3 by connecting the nodes 40 at the periphery of the module, alternately from one ply to the other.
    The peripheral cables 20b are called edge cables, they connect nodes 40 of the lower layer 2 to the node 40 of the upper layer 3, said nodes being positioned on one side of the module.
    The peripheral cables 20c are called corner cables, they connect nodes 40 of the lower layer 2 to the node 40 of the upper layer 3, said nodes being positioned on two consecutive sides of the module.
    The edge cables 20b and the corner cables 20c may have a different inclination.
    With respect to the plane of the layers, the cables 20a generally have a horizontal orientation, the peripheral cables 20b and 20c, a diagonal orientation, and the tensioners 30 a vertical orientation.
    The bars 10 may be made of a metallic material such as aluminum, or a metal alloy. Other types of materials are possible, such as wood, plastic (PVC for example), composite (fiberglass, carbon, fiber concrete, ...). Nodes 40 are preferably of a high strength material such as steel. The cables 20 and the tensioners 30 are also preferably made of steel, they can also be made from fiber materials.
    The compressed assemblies 10 are also assembled using the so-called "tensioning" elements 30, crossing between the nodes 40 of each sheet 2 and 3, and which make it possible to stiffen the structure of the module. The "inner" tensioners 31, shown in FIG. 1, make it possible to introduce localized initial stresses while the "edge" elements 32 have an impact on all the peripheral elements.
    Thus, with reference to FIGS. 1, 2A and 2B, the nodes 40a of a ply situated at the periphery of the module are connected by the ply cables 20a to an adjacent node 40b of the same ply and by the peripheral cables 20b and 20c to two other nodes 40b of the other layer.
    The other types of nodes 40b, the inner nodes of a web, have a node 40b of the other web facing each other in the same vertical plane, orthogonal to the webs. Thus, these nodes are connected to 4 other nodes 40 of the same web by web cables 20a, and by a tensioner 30 has a node 40b vis-à-vis the other web.
    The tensioners 30 between two nodes 40, illustrated in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4, are preferably composed of a set of cables attached to each node, with a turnbuckle 33 connecting the cables 34 and 35 of the nodes 40 facing each other. . The cable and turnbuckle assembly 33 which forms the turnbuckles 30 advantageously makes it possible to control the tension of the cables. Compared to another element which could be for example a threaded rod, the tensioners 30 allow to release the tension while keeping the tensioning elements attached to the nodes 40, thus facilitating the deployment of the module. In addition, these elements also make it possible to obtain a lighter structure.
    A node 40 may also include a fastening element 41 for fastening the tensioners 30. This element is advantageously a ring-type attachment means disposed on a lower face of a node 40 of the upper sheet 3 and on one face upper node 40 of the lower ply 2.
    The nodes 40 of the lower and upper layers may be identical. In this configuration, the nodes 40 of the lower ply 2 are turned 180 ° with respect to the nodes 40 of the upper ply 3.
    The release of the tension by the turnbuckles 33, also allows during a folding of the module to control the orientation of the nodes 40 for optimized storage of the bars in the folded state.
    The connections between the bars 10 (nodes 40) allow the folding-unfolding of a module from a bundle, illustrated in FIG. 5, in one piece, lightweight, compact and easily transportable, thus facilitating assembly phases. and dismantling with little labor. In addition, the structure makes it possible to minimize the adjustment phases by setting up turnbuckles 33.
    The folding / unfolding function of the structural module is enabled by the configuration of the nodes 40, which comprise articulated fixing means 46 of the bars 10, illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4.
    These means are typically 1 or 2 in number and may be of the pivot connection type, or ball type. The nodes 40 can combine the two types of articulation.
    The lightness and foldability facilitate handling. In addition, the nodes 40 allow optimal storage in compactness (contiguous parallel bars 10).
    Modules of all dimensions (shapes and heights) in space can be generated within the limit of their portability according to for example the standard NF X35-109 relating to the carrying of loads by workers in France. As a result, the weight limit to be handled during work actions for one person is 30 kg maximum.
    Thus a typical structural module, as shown in Figure 1, has 30 nodes, connected by a set of 24 bars.
    The dimensions, such as the height or the mesh (spacing between the nodes 40 of the same web) can be adjusted at will according to the dimensions of the elements which are chosen accordingly. For example, the dimensions of a module may typically be 4mx4m, the height being adjustable from 0.5 to 1.50m depending on the chosen inclination of the bars 10.
    Two modules with the same mesh can be distinguished by their height. Thus, for a given mesh, the height of the modules is determined by varying the length of the tensioners 30, the length and inclination of the peripheral cables 20b and 20c, and bars 10.
    As illustrated in FIG. 4, the nodes 40 comprise a plurality of lateral openings 42 allowing the passage of the cables 20 connecting the nodes 40 of the same horizontal sheet. Typically, these lateral openings 42 are 4 in number, two first openings 42 being located in the same plane as the bars 10 connected to the node 40. The two other openings 42 are arranged in a plane orthogonal to the plane of the bars 10.
    In one embodiment, each cable 20 is fixed between two nodes 40. In another embodiment, the cables 20 are through nodes 40, and said nodes 40 comprise a system, such as sleeves, to transmit a part of effort of the cables 20 to the nodes 40.
    By using cables 20, 34 and 35 as tensioned elements, the structure naturally offers a certain visual transparency, but also vis-à-vis the actions that affect the elements, for example the swell, in a context of semi-immersion along the coast. The cables 20, 34 and 35 are further elements that make the system very light, optimizing the use of the constituent materials, and therefore the mass, the necessary minimum vis-à-vis the rigidity and strength.
    The structural module has the option of not resting on the ground directly via the nodes.
    Thus, as illustrated in FIG. 6, some nodes 40 of the lower ply may comprise seat elements 43. A seat element 43, for example an adjustable foot fixed to the underside of a knot 40, allows adjustment the height of the structural module. It can provide a stable structure despite a limited number of ground support points (which remains a function of the operating load to be taken), and typically a module has 4 ground supports.
    Because of its lightness and rigidity, the installation on the ground requires a small number of support points, which disturbs the environment very little. Difficult and sensitive sites can be made accessible by a platform. The occupation of the site can be only temporary, disassembly allowing a return to the initial state.
    In addition, the height-adjustable seat elements 43 make it possible to easily adjust the flatness of the system.
    Referring to Figure 7, the design of the nodes 40 allows the introduction of decking elements, so as to form a platform structure. For this, the node 40 also comprises projecting hooking elements 44 adapted for fixing support bars 50 as illustrated in FIG. 7.
    This fixing is done by an element having a groove slidably engaging, such a rail mechanism, on the upper part of a node 40 of the upper web. The fastening element 44 is for example in a cylindrical shape with a flange at the top on the upper part of a node 40 allowing an element, such as a support bar 50 having a groove of complementary shape, typically a "T" groove slidably engaging said upper portion of the node 40. The support bar member 50 is positioned on at least two adjacent nodes 40, or even three or more. The support bar element 50 also has on its upper face a portion having a "T" profile for the engagement of an element having a complementary groove.
    To allow the attachment of a decking, one can for example use a connecting bar 51 which is embedded in the support bar element 50. The connecting bar 51 allows on both sides thereof fix the laying of floorboards 52. The latter engage their widths between the support bar 50 and the connecting bar 51.
    In another embodiment, the characteristics of the support bars 50 and connecting bars 51 can be combined into a single bar positioned on at least two adjacent nodes 40, or even three or more, and comprising a specific profile allowing, among other things, decking fixing. The attachment element 44 therefore proposes the installation of deck elements 52 over their width between two rows of adjacent nodes 40 each having a connecting bar 51.
    Figure 8 shows a structural module used for the realization of a platform. In this configuration, the support bar 50 can also be used for the attachment of edge bars 53 disposed at the ends of the decking. It is possible to superimpose on the edge bars 53, other elements, such as the guardrail 54, staircase 55, access ramp (not shown), canopy (not shown), thus allowing the realization of versatile structures .
    Figure 9 illustrates a module and its schematic view from above.
    As shown, the bars 10 are arranged in parallel rows 11, and parallel rows 12, perpendicular to said rows 11. The peripheral nodes 40a (having a single link to a bar 10) disposed at the ends of the rows of bars 11, define two sides 13 of the module.
    Likewise at each end of rows of bars 12, two sides 14 of the module are defined.
    The sides 13, 14 are therefore defined by a set of peripheral nodes 40a connected by cables 20, arranged in the same vertical plane, orthogonal to the rows of bars 11,12 to which these nodes 40a are connected.
    For each side 13,14, we determine the number of nodes 40a in the upper position, therefore belonging to the upper layer, and the number of nodes 40a in the lower position, therefore belonging to the lower layer.
    When the number of nodes 40a in the high position is the majority, the side is called "+", in the opposite case, the side is called "-". The assembly of modules of identical structures, as shown in FIG. 10B, is performed by juxtaposing edge-to-edge, a "+" side of a module, with a "-" side of another module. This assembly makes it possible to match the modules in a complementary manner, thus obtaining an edge-to-edge assembly where the nodes 40a of the upper and lower layers of a module are placed opposite the nodes 40a respectively of the lower layers and of the other structural module.
    The nodes 40a of the different modules being identical (in principle) and provided that the modules have identical spatial geometry in the positioning of the nodes, the modules are interconnected via the system with tensioner 30 to connect the nodes 40a. in vis-à-vis. At their assembly edges, at least one node 40a of the upper layer of a first module is connected by the tensioner system 30 to a node 40a of the lower layer of a second module, the two nodes 40a being in contact with each other. vis-a-vis.
    More generally, a module with a given mesh structure (spacing between the nodes 40 of a web) can be assembled edge with edge with another module having the same mesh structure. Thus, the two modules can be assembled along an edge having complementary nodes between the two modules (the nodes 40a of the upper and lower plies of a module being placed opposite the nodes 40a respectively of the upper and lower layers of the other structural module). The assembly of several modules edge-to-edge thus makes it possible, in a simplified and inexpensive way in manpower, the realization of multiple architectures platforms.
    In addition, modules of different heights can be combined to suit the morphology of the terrain. The structure of the module and the arrangement of the nodes 40 thus offer great flexibility as to the possibilities of realization. The assembly between different modules can also be stabilized and reinforced by laying decking elements between the various structural modules.
    Figure 11 shows the laying of deck member on the nodes 40a of two modules juxtaposed edge to edge.
    Thus, a support bar 50, as described above, is applied to the fastening elements 44 of the nodes 40a, preferably the support bar rests on at least 2 or even 3 nodes 40a.
    The assembly side has in the same vertical plane an alternation of nodes 40a of the first and second modules, the support bar 50 therefore rests at least on a node 40a of the upper layer of the first module and an adjacent node 40a of the upper sheet of the second module, which has the advantage of stiffening the assembly.
    Thus, the connection between different structural modules can be performed on the one hand thanks to the tensioners 30 between the complementary nodes 40a of the modules, and on the other hand, by the deck elements which make it possible to reinforce and ensure stability of the assembly. .
    These connecting elements also make it possible to limit the number of supports on the ground of the assembled structure. Figure 11 illustrates the possibility for the module M1 to rely on two ground points 43 which are specific to the module, and a third point by the junction with the adjacent module M2. The module M1 arriving at the Junction with a single node 40a in the lower part is supported on the adjacent module M2 by suspension using a tensioner 30. The module M2 which has two nodes 40a in the lower part at the level of the Junction can rest on the ground at four points 43, and supports the adjacent module M1 by its node 40a at the top. Said module Ml by the tensioner connection 30, preferably cable with turnbuckle 33, is therefore based on the module M2.
    As a result, the assembly of two modules will be based on 6 ground supports, the assembly of three modules, 8 supports, etc. The number of ground supports of an assembled structure thus remains limited.
    Figure 12 illustrates the assembly of modules Ml and M2 of different heights. The modules differ in the dimensions of the tensioners 30, and in the dimensions and the inclination of the peripheral cables 20b, 20c and bars 10. The dimensions of the cables 20 are identical in the two modules. Thus, the assembly between the two modules is possible because they have the same mesh (spacing between the nodes 40 of a web). This identical mesh makes it possible to match on an assembly edge, the nodes 40a of the module Ml with the nodes 40a of the module M2.
    Figure 13 illustrates the realization of a platform by assembling a plurality of modules M1 to M4. Said modules can be of different dimensions. Said platform comprises 10 ground supports by means of the seating elements 43.
    Thus, the simple addition of elementary modules, which can be of any size in length, width and height, makes it possible to produce different spatial configurations. The advantage of using modules is in the repeatability of the assembly by connection of the nodes 40a complementary from one module to another. Unlike the elementary cells whose monolithic structures are formed by the addition of structural elements, the system according to the invention produces a monolithic structure with a reduced number of structurally independent module assemblies, of variable shapes and heights, and geometrically complementary.
    The structure thus composed benefits from a certain advantage in terms of robustness since a local failure would remain limited to the module concerned.
    Each module forms, in the folded state, a bundle of one piece, easily transportable and storable in a reduced volume and, in the deployed state, a rigid structure supporting a delimited deck and can receive many independent equipment (guard -body, stairs, ramps, etc.).
    Depending on the dimensioning of the bars and cables, which can be justified by a simple calculation code, each module is limited to a mass of 40 kg and can take operating loads up to 500 kg / m2, which is required for example in the case removable stands.
    Thus, the structure meets two often opposite constraints: lightness and mechanical performance.
    The shape of the modules allows, by juxtaposition and connection, the constitution of a monolithic structure of paths of all lengths and various spatial configurations.
    In the littoral zone, the supporting structure can be implanted in semi-immersion to constitute a platform of adapted height allowing the accessibility to bathing zones and the practice of nautical activities in all autonomy. The system being light, its impact on the environment of the implantation site is almost zero, it being restored to its original state after dismantling.
