A reinforcing strip (8) is integrated with an external surface (23) of the leaf, and partially covers the surface of the leaf. The reinforcing strip is continuously extended between a distal edge of the flank and a distal edge of another flank by overlapping with the bottom. The reinforcing strip is made of polymer material or polymer-matrix composite material.

Description

La présente invention a trait à un dossier suspendu, du type comprenant une feuille qui définit un fond et deux flancs du dossier.The present invention relates to a suspended file, of the type comprising a sheet which defines a bottom and two sides of the file.

De manière classique, un dossier suspendu comprend un fond et deux flancs définissant un volume de réception de documents. Ce fond et ces flancs sont habituellement formés par une unique feuille, par exemple constituée en papier kraft. Un dossier suspendu comprend également des moyens de suspension, tels que des barrettes de suspension, solidarisés avec un bord de chaque flanc distal par rapport au fond. Ces moyens de suspension comprennent classiquement des crochets latéraux permettant le montage du dossier suspendu sur un support, tel qu'un rail intégré dans une armoire ou dans un tiroir. Lorsqu'un tel dossier suspendu contient une masse importante de documents ou d'objets, la feuille de papier kraft formant le fond et les flancs du dossier est soumise à des contraintes mécaniques importantes, qui sont plus particulièrement concentrées au niveau du fond et des crochets de suspension du dossier. La feuille de papier kraft tend alors à se déchirer dans ces zones à forte concentration de contraintes, ce qui impose un remplacement régulier du dossier suspendu.Typically, a suspended file comprises a bottom and two sides defining a document receiving volume. This bottom and these flanks are usually formed by a single sheet, for example made of kraft paper. A suspended file also comprises suspension means, such as suspension bars, secured to an edge of each side distal to the bottom. These suspension means conventionally comprise lateral hooks for mounting the suspended file on a support, such as a rail integrated in a cabinet or in a drawer. When such a suspended file contains a large mass of documents or objects, the sheet of kraft paper forming the bottom and sides of the file is subjected to significant mechanical stresses, which are particularly concentrated at the bottom and hooks suspension of the file. The sheet of kraft paper then tends to tear in these areas with high concentration of stress, which requires a regular replacement of the suspended file.

EP-A-0 443 317 décrit un dossier suspendu comprenant une feuille qui forme un fond et des flancs du dossier, la face de la feuille tournée vers l'extérieur du dossier étant renforcée localement au niveau du fond et du bord distal de chaque flanc du dossier. Dans ce dispositif, les renforts sont prévus pour limiter la détérioration du dossier résultant de frottements, qui interviennent notamment lors de la mise en place d'étiquettes sur les bords distaux du dossier ou qui résultent de contacts entre le fond du dossier et une structure de l'armoire ou du tiroir dans lequel il est suspendu. Les renforts étant prévus localement au niveau des zones de frottement, il subsiste un risque de déchirement de la feuille constitutive du dossier lorsque celui-ci est fortement chargé, de tels déchirements étant notamment susceptibles de se produire à partir des bords latéraux du dossier, là où les renforts s'interrompent. EP-A-0 443 317 describes a suspended file comprising a sheet which forms a bottom and flanks of the file, the face of the sheet facing the outside of the backrest being reinforced locally at the bottom and the distal edge of each side of the file. In this device, the reinforcements are provided to limit the deterioration of the backrest resulting from friction, which occur in particular when placing labels on the distal edges of the file or resulting from contacts between the back of the file and a structure of the cabinet or drawer in which it is suspended. Reinforcements being provided locally at the level of the friction zones, there remains a risk of tearing of the backrest sheet when it is heavily loaded, such tearing being particularly likely to occur from the lateral edges of the backrest, there where the reinforcements are interrupted.

C'est à ces inconvénients qu'entend plus particulièrement remédier l'invention en proposant un dossier suspendu présentant une résistance à la charge et une durée de vie améliorées.It is these drawbacks that the invention intends to remedy more particularly by proposing a suspended backrest with improved load resistance and service life.

  • the figure 6 is a flat view of the sheet defining the bottom and flanks of the folder of the figure 5 , prior to the mounting of suspension bars and a label holder on this sheet.

Le dossier suspendu 1 représenté sur la figure 1 est destiné à être installé dans un tiroir et comprend une feuille 2 de papier kraft, qui définit un fond 3 et deux flancs 5, 5' du dossier s'étendant à partir du fond 3. En variante, la feuille 2 peut être constituée en un matériau flexible autre que du papier kraft. En configuration d'utilisation du dossier 1, la feuille 2 est pliée selon une ligne médiane 21, de sorte que le fond 3 et les flancs 5, 5' délimitent entre eux un volume de réception de documents ou d'autres objets. Des lignes de pliage 22 supplémentaires sont également prévues de part et d'autre de la ligne médiane 21, en vue d'augmenter la largeur du fond 3.The suspended file 1 shown on the figure 1 is intended to be installed in a drawer and comprises a sheet 2 of kraft paper, which defines a bottom 3 and two sides 5, 5 'of the file extending from the bottom 3. Alternatively, the sheet 2 may be constituted by a flexible material other than kraft paper. In configuration of use of the backrest 1, the sheet 2 is folded along a median line 21, so that the bottom 3 and the sidewalls 5, 5 'delimit between them a volume for receiving documents or other objects. Additional fold lines 22 are also provided from on either side of the center line 21, in order to increase the width of the bottom 3.

Le dossier 1 comprend deux barrettes de suspension 6, disposées au voisinage d'un bord 51 ou 51' de chaque flanc 5, 5' distal par rapport au fond 3. Plus précisément, comme visible sur coupe de la figure 4, une portion distale 53 ou 53' de chaque flanc 5, 5' est pliée vers l'extérieur du dossier 1 autour d'une barrette de suspension 6, de telle sorte que le bord distal 51 ou 51' est logé entre la barrette 6 et une face 23 de la feuille 2 tournée vers l'extérieur du dossier 1. La feuille 2 est immobilisée en configuration pliée autour de chaque barrette de suspension 6 par collage, au moyen d'un produit adhésif 9 intercalé à la fois entre la barrette 6 et la portion distale 53 ou 53' et entre les deux parties de la feuille 2 disposées en regard l'une de l'autre du fait du pliage de la portion 53 ou 53'. En variante, la feuille 2 peut être immobilisée en configuration pliée autour de chaque barrette de suspension 6 par rivetage, ou par toute autre technique de fixation appropriée. Selon une autre variante, la portion distale 53 ou 53' de chaque flanc 5, 5' peut également être pliée vers l'intérieur du dossier 1 autour de la barrette de suspension 6 correspondante. Chaque barrette de suspension 6 est munie latéralement de crochets 61, propres à coopérer avec des rails non représentés intégrés dans un tiroir de réception du dossier 1. Le dossier 1 est également muni d'un support 7 d'étiquette, solidarisé avec le bord supérieur de l'un des flancs, à savoir le flanc 5 sur la figure 1, en configuration d'utilisation du dossier. A titre d'exemple, la fixation du support 7 sur le flanc 5 correspondant peut être réalisée par rivetage.The backrest 1 comprises two suspension bars 6 disposed in the vicinity of an edge 51 or 51 'of each sidewall 5, 5' distal to the bottom 3. More precisely, as visible on section of the figure 4 , a distal portion 53 or 53 'of each sidewall 5, 5' is folded towards the outside of the backrest 1 around a suspension bar 6, so that the distal edge 51 or 51 'is housed between the bar 6 and a face 23 of the sheet 2 facing the outside of the backrest 1. The sheet 2 is immobilized in folded configuration around each suspension bar 6 by gluing, by means of an adhesive product 9 inserted between the bar at the same time 6 and the distal portion 53 or 53 'and between the two parts of the sheet 2 arranged facing each other due to the folding of the portion 53 or 53'. Alternatively, the sheet 2 can be immobilized in folded configuration around each suspension bar 6 by riveting, or by any other suitable fastening technique. According to another variant, the distal portion 53 or 53 'of each sidewall 5, 5' can also be folded towards the inside of the backrest 1 around the corresponding suspension bar 6. Each suspension bar 6 is provided laterally with hooks 61, adapted to cooperate with unrepresented rails integrated in a file receiving drawer 1. The file 1 is also provided with a label holder 7, secured to the upper edge of one of the flanks, namely flank 5 on the figure 1 , in configuration of use of the file. By way of example, the fixing of the support 7 on the corresponding flank 5 can be done by riveting.

Comme visible plus particulièrement sur la figure 2, le dossier 1 comprend deux bandes de renfort 8 solidaires de la face extérieure 23 de la feuille 2. Chaque bande de renfort 8 s'étend continûment depuis le bord distal 51 d'un premier flanc 5 jusqu'au bord distal 51' du deuxième flanc 5', tout en chevauchant le fond 3, c'est-à-dire en passant de part et d'autre de celui-ci. Comme montré sur les figures 2 et 3, dans ce mode de réalisation, chaque bande de renfort 8 est disposée au voisinage d'un bord latéral 25 de la feuille 2, qui relie les bords distaux 51 et 51' des deux flancs 5, 5', et s'étend sensiblement parallèlement à ce bord latéral 25.As visible more particularly on the figure 2 the backrest 1 comprises two reinforcing strips 8 integral with the outer face 23 of the sheet 2. Each reinforcing strip 8 extends continuously from the distal edge 51 of a first sidewall 5 to the distal edge 51 'of the second flank 5 ', while overlapping the bottom 3, that is to say, passing on both sides of it. As shown on Figures 2 and 3 in this embodiment, each reinforcing strip 8 is disposed in the vicinity of a lateral edge 25 of the sheet 2, which connects the distal edges 51 and 51 'of the two sides 5, 5', and extends substantially in parallel at this side edge 25.

Chaque bande de renfort 8 est de forme allongée, de telle sorte qu'une largeur I de chaque bande 8 est très inférieure à une longueur L du dossier 1 prise transversalement par rapport aux bandes 8. En pratique, la largeur I est choisie, de préférence, inférieure ou égale à 20% de la longueur L. Chaque bande de renfort 8 est constituée en un matériau ayant de bonnes caractéristiques mécaniques, notamment en un matériau polymère, tel que du polyéthylène ou du polypropylène, ou en un matériau composite à matrice polymère renforcée par des fibres. Chaque bande de renfort 8 est fixée sur la feuille 2 par collage au moyen d'un produit adhésif 9'. En outre, dans ce mode de réalisation, chaque bande de renfort 8 est constituée en un matériau transparent, afin de ne pas modifier l'aspect extérieur du dossier 1. En variante, chaque bande de renfort 8 peut être réalisée en un matériau non transparent, par exemple coloré, adapté en fonction de l'aspect esthétique que l'on souhaite conférer au dossier 1.Each reinforcing strip 8 is of elongate shape, such that a width I of each strip 8 is much smaller than a length L of the backrest 1 taken transversely with respect to the strips 8. In practice, the width I is chosen from preferably, less than or equal to 20% of the length L. Each reinforcing strip 8 is made of a material having good mechanical characteristics, in particular a polymeric material, such as polyethylene or polypropylene, or a matrix composite material. polymer reinforced with fibers. Each reinforcing strip 8 is fixed on the sheet 2 by bonding by means of an adhesive product 9 '. In addition, in this embodiment, each reinforcing strip 8 is made of a transparent material so as not to modify the external appearance of the backrest 1. As a variant, each reinforcing strip 8 may be made of a non-transparent material , for example colored, adapted according to the aesthetic aspect that one wishes to confer on the file 1.

Comme montré sur la coupe de la figure 4, chaque extrémité 81 d'une bande de renfort 8 est pliée, conjointement avec la portion distale 53 ou 53' du flanc 5, 5' correspondant, autour d'une barrette de suspension 6. Ainsi, l'extrémité 81 d'une bande de renfort 8 est intercalée entre la barrette 6 et la face extérieure 23 de la feuille 2, ce qui la rend inaccessible et empêche toute désolidarisation d'une bande de renfort 8 par rapport à la feuille 2.As shown on the cut of the figure 4 each end 81 of a reinforcing strip 8 is folded, together with the distal portion 53 or 53 'of the corresponding sidewall 5, 5', around a suspension bar 6. Thus, the end 81 of a strip reinforcement 8 is interposed between the bar 6 and the outer face 23 of the sheet 2, which makes it inaccessible and prevents any separation of a reinforcing strip 8 with respect to the sheet 2.

Les deux bandes de renfort 8 du dossier suspendu 1 conforme à l'invention, qui sont disposées latéralement par rapport au dossier, permettent de renforcer la structure de la feuille 2 au niveau de ses bords latéraux 25, notamment dans les zones de forte concentration de contraintes que sont le fond 3 et les portions de la feuille 2 voisines des crochets de suspension 61. Ainsi, en cas d'amorce de déchirement de la feuille 2 dans ces zones, la ligne de déchirure s'interrompt au niveau de la bande de renfort 8 la plus proche, qui est avantageusement disposée à proximité du bord latéral 25 correspondant de la feuille 2. Il en résulte une tenue mécanique et une durée de vie améliorée du dossier 1 par rapport à un dossier ne présentant pas de bande de renfort.The two reinforcing strips 8 of the suspended backrest 1 according to the invention, which are arranged laterally with respect to the backrest, make it possible to reinforce the structure of the sheet 2 at its lateral edges 25, particularly in areas of high concentration of constraints that are the bottom 3 and the portions of the sheet 2 adjacent the suspension hooks 61. Thus, in case of tear initiation of the sheet 2 in these areas, the tear line is interrupted at the level of the strip of reinforcement 8 closest, which is advantageously disposed near the corresponding side edge 25 of the sheet 2. This results in a mechanical strength and an improved life of the backrest 1 relative to a folder not having a reinforcing strip.

Comme chaque bande de renfort 8 s'étend continûment entre les bords distaux 51 et 51' des deux flancs 5, 5' du dossier 1 et chevauche le fond 3, la résistance à la charge du dossier 1 est également renforcée, une partie des efforts résultant du poids du contenu du dossier 1 étant prise en charge par les bandes de renfort 8.As each reinforcing strip 8 extends continuously between the distal edges 51 and 51 'of the two sides 5, 5' of the backrest 1 and overlaps the bottom 3, the load resistance of the backrest 1 is also reinforced, a part of the forces resulting from the weight of the contents of the backrest 1 being supported by the reinforcing strips 8.

Le positionnement des bandes de renfort 8 par rapport aux bords latéraux 25 de la feuille 2 est optimisé de manière à combiner, d'une part, une interruption rapide d'amorces éventuelles de déchirement du dossier, qui est obtenue en plaçant les bandes 8 à proximité maximale des bords latéraux 25, et, d'autre part, une prise en charge effective du poids du contenu du dossier par les bandes 8, qui est obtenue en plaçant les bandes 8 dans une zone de la feuille 2 supportant effectivement le contenu du dossier, de manière symétrique par rapport à un axe médian X2 de la feuille 2 dirigé perpendiculairement par rapport à la ligne médiane 21. En particulier, le positionnement des bandes de renfort 8 sur la feuille 2 peut être adapté en fonction du contenu prévu pour le dossier 1 considéré. Par ailleurs, la largeur l de chaque bande de renfort 8 très inférieure à la longueur L du dossier 1 permet de limiter la quantité de matériau de renfort utilisé, et donc le coût de fabrication du dossier 1 renforcé.The positioning of the reinforcing strips 8 with respect to the lateral edges 25 of the sheet 2 is optimized so as to combine, on the one hand, a rapid interruption of possible tearing initiators of the backrest, which is obtained by placing the strips 8 to maximum proximity of the lateral edges 25, and, secondly, effective management of the weight of the contents of the folder by the strips 8, which is obtained by placing the strips 8 in an area of the sheet 2 actually supporting the contents of the backrest, symmetrically with respect to a median axis X 2 of the sheet 2 directed perpendicular to the center line 21. In particular, the positioning of the reinforcing strips 8 on the sheet 2 can be adapted according to the content provided for the file 1 considered. Moreover, the width l of each reinforcing strip 8 much smaller than the length L of the backrest 1 makes it possible to limit the amount of reinforcing material used, and therefore the manufacturing cost of the reinforced backrest 1.

Dans le deuxième mode de réalisation représenté aux figures 5 et 6, les éléments analogues à ceux du premier mode de réalisation portent des références identiques augmentées de 100. Le dossier suspendu 101 de ce deuxième mode de réalisation est destiné à être installé dans une armoire et comprend une feuille 102 de papier kraft, qui définit un fond 103 et deux flancs 105, 105' du dossier 101. De manière analogue au premier mode de réalisation, le dossier 101 comprend deux barrettes de suspension 106, munies latéralement de crochets 161 propres à coopérer avec des rails non représentés intégrés dans une armoire de réception du dossier 101. Chaque barrette 106 est disposée au voisinage d'un bord distal 151 ou 151' d'un flanc 105, 105', une portion distale 153 ou 153' du flanc 105, 105' étant avantageusement pliée vers l'extérieur du dossier 101 autour de la barrette 106 et immobilisée en configuration pliée autour de la barrette par collage. Dans ce deuxième mode de réalisation, la portion distale 153 ou 153' est simplement rabattue vers l'extérieur autour de la barrette 106. En variante, la portion distale 153 ou 153' peut être pliée vers l'intérieur du dossier 101 autour de la barrette 106 correspondante. Le dossier 101 est également muni d'un support 107 d'étiquette, solidarisé avec l'un des flancs, à savoir le flanc 105 sur la figure 5, au niveau d'une extension latérale 127 pliée de la feuille 102, cette extension 127 étant adjacente à l'un des bords latéraux 125 de la feuille 102 et destinée à être dirigée vers l'avant de l'armoire dans laquelle est installé le dossier suspendu 101.In the second embodiment shown in Figures 5 and 6 , the elements similar to those of the first embodiment bear identical references increased by 100. The suspended file 101 of this second embodiment is intended to be installed in a cabinet and comprises a sheet 102 of craft paper, which defines a bottom 103 and two flanks 105, 105 'of the backrest 101. In a similar manner to the first embodiment, the backrest 101 comprises two suspension bars 106, laterally provided with hooks 161 adapted to cooperate with rails not shown integrated in a receiving cabinet of the backrest 101. Each bar 106 is disposed in the vicinity of a distal edge 151 or 151 'of a sidewall 105, 105', a distal portion 153 or 153 'of the sidewall 105, 105' being advantageously folded towards the outside of the backrest 101 around the bar 106 and immobilized in folded configuration around the bar by gluing. In this second embodiment, the distal portion 153 or 153 'is simply, folded outwardly around the bar 106. Alternatively, the distal portion 153 or 153 'can be folded towards the inside of the backrest 101 around the corresponding bar 106. The backrest 101 is also provided with a support 107 of label, secured to one of the sidewalls, namely the sidewall 105 on the figure 5 , at a folded lateral extension 127 of the sheet 102, this extension 127 being adjacent to one of the lateral edges 125 of the sheet 102 and intended to be directed towards the front of the cabinet in which is installed the suspended folder 101.

Comme visible plus particulièrement sur la figure 6, le dossier 101 comprend deux bandes de renfort 108, solidaires d'une face 123 de la feuille 102 tournée vers l'extérieur du dossier 101. Chaque bande de renfort 108 est de forme allongée et présente une largeur I très inférieure à une longueur L du dossier 101, prise transversalement par rapport aux bandes 108. En pratique et de manière analogue au premier mode de réalisation, la largeur l est choisie, de préférence, inférieure ou égale à 20% de la longueur L. Comme dans le premier mode de réalisation, chaque bande de renfort 108 est disposée au voisinage d'un bord latéral 125 de la feuille 102, sensiblement parallèlement à ce bord, et s'étend continûment depuis le bord distal 151 d'un premier flanc 105 jusqu'au bord distal 151' du deuxième flanc 105', en passant de part et d'autre du fond 103. Chaque bande 108 est fixée sur la feuille 102 par collage et constituée en un matériau, transparent ou non, présentant une bonne résistance mécanique. Grâce aux bandes de renfort 108, le dossier 101 présente une résistance à la charge accrue, alors que les risques de déchirement du dossier du fait du poids de son contenu sont sensiblement réduits.As visible more particularly on the figure 6 , the backrest 101 comprises two reinforcing strips 108, integral with a face 123 of the sheet 102 facing the outside of the backrest 101. Each reinforcing strip 108 is of elongated shape and has a width I much less than a length L of the folder 101, taken transversely to the strips 108. In practice and in a similar manner to the first embodiment, the width l is chosen, preferably, less than or equal to 20% of the length L. As in the first embodiment of FIG. realization, each reinforcing strip 108 is disposed adjacent a lateral edge 125 of the sheet 102, substantially parallel to this edge, and extends continuously from the distal edge 151 of a first flank 105 to the distal edge 151 'of the second side 105', passing on either side of the bottom 103. Each strip 108 is fixed on the sheet 102 by gluing and consists of a material, transparent or not, having good mechanical strength. With the reinforcing strips 108, the backrest 101 has increased load resistance, while the risk of tearing the backrest due to the weight of its contents are significantly reduced.

L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples décrits et représentés. En particulier, le nombre de bandes de renfort 8 ou 108 peut être différent de deux. Il est notamment possible de prévoir une unique bande de renfort, ou encore une multiplicité de bandes de renfort couvrant partiellement la feuille définissant le fond et les flancs du dossier suspendu. Selon une autre variante non représentée de l'invention, la ou chaque bande de renfort d'un dossier suspendu selon l'invention peut s'étendre selon une direction non parallèle par rapport aux bords latéraux de la feuille constitutive du dossier. A titre d'exemple, un dossier suspendu selon l'invention peut comprendre au moins deux bandes de renfort disposées en diagonale sur la face extérieure de la feuille constitutive du dossier, en s'étendant entre les bords distaux des flancs du dossier. De plus, selon une autre variante non représentée de l'invention, la ou chaque bande de renfort peut être solidarisée avec la face intérieure de la feuille constitutive du dossier. Un dossier suspendu conforme à l'invention peut également comprendre, à la fois, une ou plusieurs bandes de renfort solidarisées avec la face intérieure de la feuille et une ou plusieurs bandes de renfort solidarisées avec la face extérieure de la feuille. Des bandes de renfort solidarisées avec la face intérieure de la feuille permettent en effet, de manière analogue à des bandes de renfort solidarisées avec la face extérieure de la feuille, de stopper la propagation d'amorces de déchirement de la feuille et de prendre en charge une partie des efforts exercés sur la feuille du fait du poids d'objets contenus dans le dossier, pour autant que les bandes de renfort sont disposées dans une zone du dossier supportant effectivement son contenu.The invention is not limited to the examples described and shown. In particular, the number of reinforcing strips 8 or 108 may be different from two. It is in particular possible to provide a single reinforcing strip, or a multiplicity of reinforcing strips partially covering the sheet defining the bottom and the sides of the suspended file. According to another variant not shown of the invention, the or each reinforcing strip of a suspended file according to the invention may extend in a non-parallel direction relative to the side edges of the constituent sheet of the folder. For example, a suspended file according to the invention may comprise at least two reinforcing strips arranged diagonally on the outer face of the constituent sheet of the backrest, extending between the distal edges of the flanks of the folder. In addition, according to another variant not shown of the invention, the or each reinforcing strip can be secured to the inner face of the constituent sheet of the folder. A suspended file according to the invention may also comprise, at one and the same time, one or more reinforcing strips secured to the inner face of the sheet and one or more reinforcing strips secured to the outer face of the sheet. Reinforcing strips secured to the inner face of the sheet make it possible, in a manner analogous to reinforcing strips secured to the outer face of the sheet, to stop the propagation of tearing primers of the sheet and to take charge of a part of the forces exerted on the sheet because of the weight of objects contained in the folder, provided that the reinforcing strips are arranged in an area of the folder actually supporting its contents.
