System for securing fixtures to a vehicle floor comprising panels with perforated lateral walls
Systems for securing fixtures to the floor of a transportation vehicle. The securing system has a simplified structure comprising a securing device with two C-profiles comprising a web extending between a top plate and a bottom plate, the profiles being joined by an omega-shape fishplate. Vertical lateral walls formed by the webs of the profiles are perforated.
1. A device for securing fixtures to a floor of a vehicle, comprising:
two C-profiles formed, respectively, by a web, a bottom flange, and a top flange, the webs being perforated and having orifices, and
an omega-shape fishplate, formed by a cap provided with feet,
wherein the two C-profiles and the omega-shape fishplate are discrete components,
wherein the webs are joined by the omega-shape fishplate and are positioned on either side of the cap, the two C-profiles lying in opposition back-to-back, the bottom flanges and top flanges of the two C-profiles projecting away from the web,
wherein the surfaces of the webs are parallel to each other from the bottom flanges to the top flanges.
2. A system for securing fixtures to a floor of a vehicle, comprising a securing device according to claim 1 , and further comprising mounting means allowing the fixtures to be associated with the securing device, the mounting means being provided with structural means using the orifices of the webs for their placing, their holding and their immobilization in the securing device.
3. The securing system according to claim 2 , wherein the mounting means comprise two lateral flanks provided, respectively, with at least one stud, at least one of the studs being retractable, the studs having a form and being of a size allowing insertion into the orifices of the webs for holding said means in position and having a part that extends beyond the securing device when said mounting means are secured thereto, allowing the securing of the fixture.
4. A floor comprising at least two parallelepipedal panels comprising a front wall, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall and two lateral walls, and comprising a securing device according to claim 1 , and at least one edge of the front, rear or lateral walls being covered by one of the two C-profiles, the panels being assembled in pairs by securing devices, the bottom flanges ensuring securing with the feet, the fishplate holding the two C-profiles and thus the panels at a distance.
5. The floor according to claim 4 , wherein the panel comprises cavities opposite the orifices of the webs.
6. The floor according to claim 4 , wherein the webs are positioned against the lateral walls of the cap.
7. The floor according to claim 4 , wherein a height of the cap is such that the cap lies below the orifices of the webs.
8. The floor according to claim 4 , wherein the surfaces of the webs are parallel to each other, said surfaces lying against a surface of edges of the cap of the fishplate, a surface of one edge of the cap being parallel to a surface of an opposite cap edge.
9. A vehicle comprising supporting crossmembers for a floor with a securing device according to claim 4 , the securing device further comprising mounting means allowing the fixtures to be associated with the securing device, the mounting means being provided with structural means using the orifices of the webs for their placing, their holding and their immobilization in the securing device, the fixtures being associated with the securing devices by mounting means, the mounting means being provided with structural means using the orifices of the webs for their placing, their holding and their immobilization in the securing devices.
10. A floor comprising:
at least two parallelepipedal panels comprising a front wall, a rear wall, a top wall, a bottom wall and two lateral walls, and
a securing device comprising
two C-profiles formed, respectively, by a web, a bottom flange, and a top flange, the webs being perforated and having orifices, and
an omega-shape fishplate, formed by a cap provided with feet,
wherein the webs are joined by the omega-shape fishplate and are positioned on either side of the cap, the two C-profiles lying in opposition back-to-back, the bottom flanges and top flanges of the two C-profiles projecting away from the web, and
at least one edge of the front, rear or lateral walls being covered by one of the two C-profiles, the panels being assembled in pairs by securing devices, the bottom flanges ensuring securing with the feet, the fishplate holding the two C-profiles and thus the panels at a distance, and wherein the panel comprises cavities opposite the orifices of the webs.
