REMOVABLE BLOCK FOR IMMOBILISING A VEHICLE WHEEL ON A PERFORATED CARRYING STRUCTURE}
There are various types of blocks that can be applied to surfaces such as trucks for use in transporting vehicles.
One of these devices is described in French Patent No. 2,725,946, filed by the applicant of the present invention.
The block described in this patent consists of a locking support base that can be immovably fixed inside a hole in the carrying surface and a block structure attached to the support base, which allows the vehicle to pass through two locations, i.e. It rotates between a flat position parallel to the carrying surface and a vertical position perpendicular to the carrying surface to immobilize the vehicle. The plate-shaped support block has two fixing claws on the lower surface, which fasten to the carrying surface. The fixed claws, which are designed to engage separately inside the holes of the carrying surface, rotate at the same time as a rotary lock to alternate between a position to be pulled out of the hole and a locked position where the block is fixed to prevent movement of the carrying surface of the transport vehicle.
Another block is described in French patent 2,684,054 filed by Officina Meccanica di Migliore Livio. It consists of two crossbars across the carrying surface to hold the wheels immovably and two block fingers to immobilize them on the carrying surface. One of the fingers rotates between an open position that is pulled out of or through a hole in the carrying surface and a locking position that is rotated 90 ° from the open position when locked in the hole. The other locking fingers are attached and fixed opposite the first finger, spaced at the same interval as the separation of the two holes.
Another block is described in European Patent No. 0710,584 under the name of Societe Kassbohrer. This block consists of a transverse stop having a side return portion which is a single unit formed from a tubular prosecution. It includes two securing fingers that secure to the carrying surface, one consisting of a rotary hook and the other fixed.
Briefly, a block according to the prior art described above has at least one anchoring finger or claw at the end of the block, which anchors to the carrying surface. Depending on the method, one or two of the claws can rotate between the position of opening the block and the locking position fixed into the hole when placed parallel to the longitudinal axis of the opening in the perforated conveying surface. This method ensures that the vehicle being transported on the transport surface of the block and the transport device remains in place.
Nevertheless, the method according to the prior art for providing two end locking fingers suffers from several problems.
Positioning and removing blocks is a difficult operation. In fact, when the block is placed over the carrying surface, each locking finger must be positioned to coincide with the hole opening in the surface. This manual operation process is difficult for the user because the blocks are very heavy and inaccessible to locks placed inside the loading surface, i.e. the surface supporting the vehicle being transported. On the other hand, the locking finger remains fixed inside the hole when removing the block. This extraction process becomes more difficult when the wheels do not move against the stop structure of the block. And blocks according to the prior art are uneconomical because of high manufacturing costs.
The present invention relates to a moving block for securing a wheel to a carrying structure with holes.

FIG. 16 is a plan view of a block according to the variant shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, showing a portion of the surface to which it is attached and a tire immovably fixed;
It is an object of the present invention to obviate the aforementioned problems.
To this end, the present invention provides a moving block for securing a wheel to a conveying structure with holes, which in accordance with a feature of the invention comprises a locking element at one end for securing to the conveying structure, the upper part being of the block center and It extends down to the fixed base by a rounded return portion defining a concave guide lamp adjacent to it.
The advantages of the present invention are as follows:
This facilitates the positioning and removal of blocks;
A single open-lock mechanism on the block can attach and fasten very quickly to the carrying surface with very little error and malfunction;
There is no double open-lock mechanism, the device is not only lightweight and easy to manufacture, but also shorter in body;
The small block occupies a small surface space and no part of the block extends beyond the vertical plane of the upper prosecution;
This block is shorter than the currently used block:
Light weight;
Easier to manipulate and store;
· Do not disturb the suspension of the vehicle lowered to the ground.
A single unlocking mechanism is arranged on the outside of the transported vehicle to prevent accessibility beneath the vehicle while positioning, locking and removing the block;
• The removal process can be completed without damaging the tires;
The body of the block is formed of a smooth, flat U-shaped tube, the plane of which is defined by two inclined parallel branches and its projecting surface is higher than the locking base;
The tube constituting the body of the block has a smooth edge that does not damage the tire even when the block is aligned along the edge of the support surface;
The body of the block is easily shaped by simply bending the tube and the side base can be forged or molded.
The invention will be more readily understood after reading the following detailed description, based on the two embodiments of the block, with reference to the accompanying drawings:
The block according to the invention comprises a rectangular transverse body 1 attached to a fixed base 2 to fix it immovably; For example, it is locked with a support structure 3 consisting of a protruding rim, an elliptical hole 5, a plate 4 with a corrugated surface, which holes are arranged along rows 6 and rows 7.
Blocks designed to block the wheels with the tires 8 mounted thereon can be separated after loosening from the perforated conveying structure 3 by simple continuous manual manipulation at the handle or lever after the separating movement.
According to a first variant of the invention, it can be folded in a vertical position so that the wheel separates from the area already blocked just before the wheel for passage. It is folded by rotating around an axis that is perpendicular or parallel to the support structure until it is in a vertical or horizontal position or perpendicular to the surface. The block can be moved or aligned along the support surface in the direction of wheel movement.
The transverse body 1 is formed in a rectangle having two parallel branched portions blocking the tire 8. The lower branch 9 and the upper branch 10 can be formed into a single piece by splitting in the direction of motion and rejoining each other at the unfixed end of the block at the inclined connection 11 and bending or molding the tube. To form a flat U-shaped support.
The lower branch 9 is arranged low enough to contact one or more faces of the area with holes therein. This can be engaged in the space imparted by the longitudinal edges opposite the holes of the two continuous lines 7.
The inclined surface defined by the two branch portions is sized and tilted appropriately with respect to the block such that the protruding surface covers the block's fixed incision surface and completely covers the lock.
This feature allows the block body to be used as a shield to protect the mechanical components of the block from damage by the circulating tire to protect the tire from all damaging bumps.
The plane defined by the branches 9, 10 is inclined upwards towards the front in the direction of tire movement and locked at the front of the block as shown in FIG. 2.
At the other end of the block, the upper branch 10 extends downward with a round feedback prose 12. The rounded part extends down to the fixed base 13 into a widened concave connection element 14 coupled to the attachment base 13 with the lower branch 9 being joined at a lower position. This structure defines a hollow guide space 15 which extends between the fixed base 13 and the round prose 12. The hollow guide space 15 becomes more convex and forms a side ramp 16 that is bent inward near the center of the block.
The convex side ramp 16 inside the guiding space 15 allows the tire to be undamaged towards the center of the block to secure it in place relative to the upper branch 10 when the tire is initially incompletely aligned with the block. Guide (8).
The fixed base 13 is composed of a lock 17 and a steering mechanism 18. The lock 17 comprises a plate 19, each longitudinal end having a claw shaped hook that engages inside the hole of one of the neighboring ellipsoids 5 in the holed conveying structure 3.
The first claw 20 fixed relative to the plate 19 forms an extension of one of the longitudinal ends of the plate. It is arranged at the front of the plate 19, ie above the tire. This is because, on the long side closest to the edge of the neighboring hole, immediately adjacent to or adjacent to the hole 5 when the conveying structure 3 moves in the longitudinal direction rather than in the transverse direction with respect to the line 7 of the hole 5. Engage inside. This fixed claw 20 constitutes a locked hook device of the lock.
The first claw 20 is disposed adjacent to the protrusion of the upper branch 10.
The second claw 21 is finger shaped with an end 22 formed in the locking segment 23. This is a movable segment that rotates about the transverse pin-axis 24 at opposite end heights of the hook plate 19. This movable locking finger 21 rotates in a direction parallel to the line of the hole 7, that is, horizontally fixed relative to the fixing direction of the first fixed claw 20.
The locking finger 21 has a protruding positioning element 25 attached at right angles to the stationary plate 19 and is designed to engage inside the hole used by the locking finger 21 to center and fix. It can be completely fixed by locking. To achieve this, the fixed positioning inlets 25 are suitably spaced apart from the holes used by the fixed claws.
The rotary locking finger 21 can be actuated by a pivoting mechanism extending to the lever forming the handle 26.
This actuation mechanism includes a handle 26, which acts on a shaft tip 27 that cooperates with and is parallel to the axis of rotation, acting as a cam 28 formed on top of the locking finger prose 23. It is attached to the supporting shaft.
Therefore, lowering the handle down allows the locking finger 21 to rotate and engage the locking mechanism for the block. The locking finger 21, which is a rocker prosecution, becomes flat against the bottom surface of the perforated plate near the adjacent hole 5 and actually holds it. In addition to locking the fixed claw 20 and the positioning handle 25 in the longitudinal direction, this forms a complete resistance lock.
On the axis of the actuation mechanism the torsion spring 29 maintains the locked position.
This lock is so effective that it does not require a second lock, which is arranged below the opposite end of the block, like a block according to the prior art.
The transverse fastening body 1 is long enough to accommodate the largest tires in a vehicle, such as a passenger car. According to this feature, the block should be as short as possible. In vehicles with very small or exceptionally large wheels, it is necessary to move the blocks one or two intervals along the perforated plate.
Modifications using the three anchor points shown in FIGS. 12 to 16 can be distinguished from the modifications described above by the following features.
The stationary plate extends further in the direction of movement of the tire, and the lower branch of the transverse body of the block is placed in front of the stationary tire, which is a quarter-turn type lock, executed by two centering-fixing prosecutions, eg For example it is attached to the plate using the center lock.
This variant includes the same indictment as the variant described above.
It comprises a rectangular transverse body 30 attached to a fixed base 31 extending longitudinally for attaching to a support structure 3 which forms a surface plate consisting of a plate having a protruding rim and an ellipsoidal sphere 5, This hole is arranged along the rows 6 and 7.
The block for stopping the wheel with the vehicle tire 8 mounted thereon can be separated after it is released from the perforated conveying surface 3 by simply removing the block after a simple manual operation on the handle or lever.
According to a variant of the invention, the block body is positioned by moving along a plate surface which can be folded into a vertical, separate position orthogonal to the plate surface and parallel to the direction of movement.
The transverse block body 30 takes a rectangular shape. It consists of two parallel branches, the tire 8 being blocked against one branch. The lower branch 32 and the upper branch 33 are split and recombined at the unattached end of the block by the inclined connecting element 34. The entire unit constitutes a flat, U-shaped support which can be bent or forged molded by forging or molding.
The open end of the upper branch 33 is rearward at an angled cross section 35 followed by the segment 36, which together with the upper branch 33 forms the guide space 37 for the tire 8. Stretched Segment 36 extends downwardly into segment 38 with an angled end. The open end 39 of the segment 38 is integral with the fastening plate 40, which together with the centering-fixing device forms a fastening base 31.
The unattached end 41 of the lower branch 32 is the other end of the fixing plate 40, which constitutes a mechanical connection between the lower branch 32 and the other two ends of the upper branch 33. It is connected to and closed.
The fixed plate 40 is longer than the form shown in FIGS. 1 to 11. This includes a prosecution, such as center stationary prose 42, that separates the two centering-fixing structures in the form of two blocks 43, 44 designed to pass through two openings in the plate.
The blocks 43 and 44 are smaller than the openings or have the same shape and shape as the plate openings to ensure complementary fixing, and may be made in other shapes and sizes to form a simple centering-fixing guide to effectively secure the blocks. have.
Generally speaking, the lock 42 can be placed in all parts with respect to the two centering-fixed structures at one end or the other end of the hole covered by the securing plate 40.
And, one of the centering-fixing structures may be integrally formed with the lock 42 either immediately adjacent or inside a neighboring hole.
The lock 42, which is the central lock, comprises an angled steering lever 45 having a horizontal upper branch 46 and a vertical branch 47. It is attached to the stationary plate 40, which rotates in this stationary plate. The vertical branch 4 extends downward toward an angled portion that crosses the plate 40 and has a support foot 48 perpendicular to the horizontal upper branch 46. The unit is flexibly attached to the top by a compression spring 49 extending between two stops around the lower end of the upper branch 47. The function of this spring is to hold the foot 48 in place against the opening intersected by the lock and the lower surface of the adjacent plate.
The face defined by the two lower branches 32 and the upper branches 33 of the transverse body 31 is inclined downward toward the front in the direction in which the tire 8 approaches and below the upper branches 33. In the closed position, the upper branch 26 of the lock handle 42 remains closed.
The first part of the segment 36 and the upper branch 33 are tires without pushing towards the center of the block for placement in fixed contact with the upper branch 33 if not initially perfectly aligned with the block. It defines the guide space 37 which forms the concave curved side lamp 50 which guides (8).
This variant imparts greater stability to the block since the securing plate 40 extends further in the longitudinal direction.
