Hello Omar,
I see that your post is from 2015, but I had the same problem in 2019 :)
However I found a solution and I'm sharing it for someone who is experiencing the same issue.
In Ir_http.py there is a method called binary_content, which returns a binary field content and some other info. You can use it in any model or controller with the following import:
from odoo.addons.web.controllers.main import binary_content
* Tested on Odoo 11 Community version

Hi,
this is what worked for me:
with io.BytesIO(base64.b64decode(self.binary_field_name)) as f:
# do stuff with the contents here as if it were a file
