Description

La présente invention concerne un habitacle du type repliable et/ou démontable dont au moins certains des panneaux formant ses parois peuvent occuper une position déployée et une position repliée en vue d'occuper dans cette dernière position un volume réduit.The present invention relates to a cabin of the folding and / or removable type of which at least some of the panels forming its walls can occupy a deployed position and a folded position in order to occupy in the latter position a reduced volume.

On connaît actuellement, notamment dans le domaine du caravaning, de nombreux dispositifs du type repliable. Dans ces dispositifs connus, les panneaux formant les parois sont plats et sont, en position repliée, les uns sur les autres de telle sorte que le volume déterminé par les panneaux lorsqu'ils sont en position dépliée est en conséquence direct des surfaces en vis-à-vis des panneaux lorsque ces derniers sont en position repliée.Many devices of the collapsible type are currently known, particularly in the field of caravanning. In these known devices, the panels forming the walls are flat and are, in the folded position, one on top of the other so that the volume determined by the panels when they are in the unfolded position is consequently direct of the facing surfaces. opposite the panels when the latter are in the folded position.

On connaît également, par le brevet US-3 359 693 un habitacle repliable qui comprend deux parois transversales repliables vers l'intérieur, deux parois longitudinales formant sur toute leur hauteur des renflements et aptes à être repliées l'une dans l'autre autour des panneaux transversaux repliés, ainsi qu'un toit en deux parties qui sont respectivement repliées sur le bord supérieur des panneaux longitudinaux renflés, ces parties de toit se repliant sur les panneaux longitudinaux.Also known from US Pat. No. 3,359,693 is a collapsible cabin which comprises two transverse walls which can be folded inwards, two longitudinal walls forming over their entire height bulges and capable of being folded one inside the other around the folded transverse panels, as well as a roof in two parts which are respectively folded over the upper edge of the swollen longitudinal panels, these roof parts folding over the longitudinal panels.

On connaît en outre, par le brevet AU-B-20 711, un dispositif qui comprend deux panneaux transversaux repliables vers le haut dans son toit et deux panneaux longitudinaux en deux parties mutuellement articulées et respectivement articulées sur son toit et sur son fond de manière à pouvoir être repliées à la manière d'un accordéon.Also known, from patent AU-B-20,711, a device which comprises two transverse panels foldable upwards in its roof and two longitudinal panels in two mutually articulated parts and respectively articulated on its roof and on its bottom so to be foldable like an accordion.

Ces habitacles connus présentent également un rapport entre leur volume en position dépliée et leur volume en position pliée qui reste important.These known compartments also have a ratio between their volume in the unfolded position and their volume in the folded position which remains significant.

La présente invention a, au contraire, pour but d'augmenter considérablement, par rapport aux dispositifs existants, le rapport entre le volume de l'habitacle lorsqu'il est en position déployée et le volume occupé par les panneaux qui le constituent lorsque ces derniers sont en position repliée.The present invention aims, on the contrary, to considerably increase, compared to existing devices, the ratio between the volume of the passenger compartment when it is in the deployed position and the volume occupied by the panels which constitute it when the latter are in the folded position.

Tel qu'il est revendiqué, l'habitacle du type repliable et/ou démontable selon l'invention comprend deux panneaux transversaux et deux panneaux longitudinaux, un toit et un fond. Lesdits panneaux peuvent occuper une position déployée dans laquelle ils forment, entre le fond et le toit, des parois latérales et une position repliée vers l'intérieur ou rangée dans laquelle ils s'étendent au-dessus dudit fond. Lesdits panneaux longitudinaux présentent chacun un renflement qui, dans leur position déployée, constitue un renflement vers l'extérieur, ces renflements étant tels qu'en position repliée ou rangée, leurs parois inférieures étant l'une en face de l'autre, ils pénètrent l'un dans l'autre, le renflement le plus petit étant apte à loger, en position repliée ou rangée, lesdits panneaux transversaux au-dessus dudit fond.As claimed, the foldable and / or dismountable type passenger compartment according to the invention comprises two transverse panels and two longitudinal panels, a roof and a bottom. Said panels can occupy a deployed position in which they form, between the bottom and the roof, side walls and an inwardly folded or stowed position in which they extend above said bottom. Said longitudinal panels each have a bulge which, in their deployed position, constitutes a bulge towards the outside, these bulges being such that in the folded or stored position, their lower walls being one opposite the other, they penetrate one inside the other, the smallest bulge being able to accommodate, in the folded or stored position, said transverse panels above said bottom.

Conformément à l'invention, la partie inférieure de chacun desdits panneaux longitudinaux constitue le renflement précité, chaque panneau longitudinal comprenant en outre une partie longitudinale supérieure adjacente au renflement de sa partie inférieure et repliable sur une des faces de ce dernier, ledit toit étant séparable de manière à permettre le repliage ou le rangement des panneaux constituant lesdites parois latérales.According to the invention, the lower part of each of said longitudinal panels constitutes the aforementioned bulge, each longitudinal panel further comprising an upper longitudinal part adjacent to the bulge of its lower part and foldable on one of the faces of the latter, said roof being separable so as to allow the folding or storing of the panels constituting said side walls.

Dans une variante selon l'invention, la partie longitudinale supérieure du panneau longitudinal présentant le plus petit renflement est repliable sur la face extérieure de la paroi longitudinale de ce dernier et la partie longitudinale supérieure du panneau longitudinal présentant le plus grand renflement est repliable sur la face intérieure de la paroi longitudinale de ce dernier, les parties longitudinales supérieures -des panneaux longitudinaux s'étendant, en position repliée, entre les parois longitudinales desdits renflements.In a variant according to the invention, the upper longitudinal part of the longitudinal panel having the smallest bulge is foldable on the external face of the longitudinal wall of the latter and the upper longitudinal part of the longitudinal panel having the largest bulge is foldable on the inner face of the longitudinal wall of the latter, the upper longitudinal parts of the longitudinal panels extending, in the folded position, between the longitudinal walls of said bulges.

Dans une exécution préférée selon l'invention les panneaux transversaux, la paroi longitudinale du renflement du panneau longitudinal à renflement le plus petit, les parties supérieures des panneaux longitudinaux, la paroi longitudinale du renflement du panneau longitudinal à renflement le plus grand et la face supérieure du toit sont planes et empilées au-dessus du fond.In a preferred embodiment according to the invention, the transverse panels, the longitudinal wall of the bulge of the longitudinal panel with the smallest bulge, the upper parts of the longitudinal panels, the longitudinal wall of the bulge of the longitudinal panel with the largest bulge and the upper face of the roof are flat and stacked above the bottom.

De préférence, selon l'invention, lesdits renflements sont, en section verticale, perpendiculaires aux panneaux, de section en forme de L, l'une des parois desdits renflements de section en forme de L pouvant constituer ladite paroi longitudinale tandis que l'autre constitue une paroi inférieure.Preferably, according to the invention, said bulges are, in vertical section, perpendicular to the panels, of L-shaped section, one of the walls of said bulges of L-shaped section being able to constitute said longitudinal wall while the other constitutes a lower wall.

Dans une variante préférée de l'invention, ledit toit est en forme de couvercle de manière à, en position repliée ou rangée au-dessus dudit fond, envelopper lesdits panneaux latéraux, son bord périphérique rejoignant le bord périphérique dudit fond, et de manière à, en position déployée, envelopper la partie supérieure desdits panneaux latéraux.In a preferred variant of the invention, said roof is in the form of a cover so as, in the folded or stored position above said bottom, to wrap said side panels, its peripheral edge joining the peripheral edge of said bottom, and so as to , in the deployed position, wrap the upper part of said side panels.

Selon l'invention, lesdits panneaux longitudinaux peuvent avantageusement présenter des rebords opposés sur lesquels viennent en appui les panneaux transversaux.According to the invention, said longitudinal panels can advantageously have opposite edges on which the transverse panels bear.

Dans une variante, ledit fond est formé par une plaque horizontale. Dans une autre variante, ledit fond est en forme de cuvette, lesdits panneaux latéraux s'étendant à partir des bords supérieurs des parois de cette cuvette.In a variant, said bottom is formed by a horizontal plate. In another variant, said bottom is in the form of a bowl, said side panels extending from the upper edges of the walls of this bowl.

L'habitacle représenté sur les figures et repéré d'une manière générale par la référence 1 est sensiblement en forme de parallélépipède présentant deux renflements latéraux opposés et comprend, comme on peut le voir notamment sur les figures 1 et 2 et repérés d'une manière générale, un fond horizontal 2, deux parois transversales 3 et 4, deux parois longitudinales 5 et 6 ainsi qu'un toit 7.The passenger compartment shown in the figures and generally identified by the reference 1 is substantially in the shape of a parallelepiped having two opposite lateral bulges and comprises, as can be seen in particular in Figures 1 and 2 and marked in a way general, a horizontal bottom 2, two transverse walls 3 and 4, two longitudinal walls 5 and 6 as well as a roof 7.

En se reportant notamment aux figures 1 et 2, on va maintenant décrire la structure de l'habitacle 1 dans sa position déployée.Referring in particular to Figures 1 and 2, we will now describe the structure of the passenger compartment 1 in its deployed position.

Le fond 2 est constitué par une plaque sensiblement rectangulaire destinée à venir en appui sur le sol par l'intermédiaire de pieds 8 répartis sur sa surface inférieure.The bottom 2 is constituted by a substantially rectangular plate intended to come to bear on the ground by means of feet 8 distributed over its lower surface.

Les parois transversales 3 et 4 sont formés par des panneaux plans sensiblement rectangulaires qui s'étendent verticalement et vers le haut à partir de deux bords opposés du fond 2 et qui portent respectivement deux goussets 9 et 10 de forme triangulaire, qui s'étendent vers l'intérieur et qui sont articulés sur le fond 2 à distance de leur face intérieure de telle sorte que les panneaux 3 et 4 peuvent être rabattus vers l'intérieur. Dans les parois transversales 3 et 4 sont prévues des portes d'accès 3a et 4a.The transverse walls 3 and 4 are formed by substantially rectangular flat panels which extend vertically and upwards from two opposite edges of the bottom 2 and which respectively carry two gussets 9 and 10 of triangular shape, which extend towards the interior and which are articulated on the bottom 2 at a distance from their interior face so that the panels 3 and 4 can be folded inwards. In the transverse walls 3 and 4 are provided access doors 3a and 4a.

Les parois longitudinales 5 et 6 sont constituées respectivement par des éléments inférieurs 11 et 12 déterminant des renflements latéraux vers l'extérieur 13 et 14 et par des panneaux verticaux 15 et 16 rectangulaires qui prolongent vers le haut les éléments 11 et 12. Les éléments 11 et 12 qui délimitent les renflements vers l'extérieur 13 et 14 sont en section verticale en forme de L dont les branches sont respectivement formées par les panneaux rectangulaires 17a et 18a dont les bords d'extrémité sont adjacents aux deux autres bords du fond 2 et par deux panneaux rectangulaires 17 et 18 dont les bords supérieurs portent les panneaux 15 et 16 par l'intermédiaire de charnières 19 et 20. Les éléments 11 et 12 comprennent également des panneaux transversaux opposés 21 et 22 qui délimitent longitudinalement les renflements 13 et 14 et dont les bords verticaux 23 et 24 constituent des rebords contre lesquels les bords verticaux des faces extérieures des panneaux 3 et 4 viennent en appui. Les bords verticaux opposés des panneaux 15 et 16 portent également des rebords opposés transversaux 25 et 26 contre lesquels également les bords verticaux de la face extérieure des panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 viennent en appui, les bords 23, 25 et 24, 26 étant dans le même plan vertical.The longitudinal walls 5 and 6 are constituted respectively by lower elements 11 and 12 determining lateral outward bulges 13 and 14 and by vertical rectangular panels 15 and 16 which extend elements 11 and 12 upwards. Elements 11 and 12 which delimit the outward bulges 13 and 14 are in L-shaped vertical section whose branches are respectively formed by rectangular panels 17a and 18a whose end edges are adjacent to the other two edges of the bottom 2 and by two rectangular panels 17 and 18, the upper edges of which carry the panels 15 and 16 by means of hinges 19 and 20. The elements 11 and 12 also include opposite transverse panels 21 and 22 which longitudinally delimit the bulges 13 and 14 and whose vertical edges 23 and 24 constitute rims against which the vertical edges of the outer faces of the panels 3 and 4 come to bear. The opposite vertical edges of the panels 15 and 16 also carry opposite transverse edges 25 and 26 against which also the vertical edges of the outer face of the transverse panels 3 and 4 come to bear, the edges 23, 25 and 24, 26 being in the same vertical plane.

Les rebords 23 et 24 des parois transversales 21 et 22 des éléments 11 et 12 présentent des encoches 27 et 28 débouchant sur leur face verticale et orientées vers le haut et dans lesquelles sont respectivement disposés les axes de boutons 29 et 30 portés par les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 et s'étendant vers l'extérieur, chacun des rebords 23 et 24 présentant deux encoches 27 et 28 associées à deux boutons 29 et 30 des panneaux 3 et 4, les éléments 11 et 12 étant ainsi portés par les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4.The edges 23 and 24 of the transverse walls 21 and 22 of the elements 11 and 12 have notches 27 and 28 opening out on their vertical face and facing upwards and in which the axes of buttons 29 and 30 are respectively disposed, carried by the transverse panels. 3 and 4 and extending outwards, each of the flanges 23 and 24 having two notches 27 and 28 associated with two buttons 29 and 30 of the panels 3 and 4, the elements 11 and 12 thus being carried by the transverse panels 3 and 4.

Le toit 7 est en forme de cuvette et comprend un panneau horizontal rectangulaire 31 et, pour former ses parois latérales orientées vers le bas, deux panneaux longitudinaux rectangulaires 32 et deux panneaux transversaux rectangulaires 33.The roof 7 is bowl-shaped and comprises a rectangular horizontal panel 31 and, to form its downward-facing side walls, two rectangular longitudinal panels 32 and two rectangular transverse panels 33.

Les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 s'étendent à l'intérieur du couvercle 7, la face intérieure de son panneau horizontal 31 étant en appui contre le bord supérieur de ces panneaux transversaux 3 et 4. L'extrémité supérieure des panneaux longitudinaux 15 et 16 pénètre légèrement à l'intérieur du couvercle 7, les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 étant en appui contre la face intérieure des parois transversales 33 du couvercle 7 et les panneaux 15 et 16 étant en appui contre la face intérieure des parois longitudinales 32 du couvercle 7.The transverse panels 3 and 4 extend inside the cover 7, the inner face of its horizontal panel 31 being in abutment against the upper edge of these transverse panels 3 and 4. The upper end of the longitudinal panels 15 and 16 slightly penetrates inside the cover 7, the transverse panels 3 and 4 being in abutment against the inner face of the transverse walls 33 of the cover 7 and the panels 15 and 16 being in abutment against the inner face of the longitudinal walls 32 of the cover 7 .

En se reportant aux figures 2, 5 et 6, on voit que les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 présentent des évidements rectangulaires 34 ouverts vers le haut et que deux panneaux rectangulaires 35 dont la surface est légèrement inférieure à la surface des évidements rectangulaires 34 leur sont associés. Ces panneaux rectangulaires 35 peuvent occuper une première position dans laquelle ils s'étendent à l'intérieur des évidements 34 et prolongent les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 comme on le voit sur la figure 5 et une deuxième position dans laquelle ils s'étendent horizontalement à partir du bord inférieur horizontal des évidements 34 des panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 pour par exemple constituer des étagères comme on le voit sur la figure 6. De plus, lorsque les panneaux 35 sont amenés dans leur position horizontale, ils peuvent être repoussés vers l'extérieur au travers des évidements 34 de telle sorte que des ergots 36 qu'ils portent peuvent pénétrer dans des évidements 37 ménagés dans la face intérieure des parois transversales 33 du couvercle 7 pour constituer des moyens de verrouillage du couvercle 7, ces ergots 36 étant aptes à pénétrer dans des évidements 38 ouverts vers le haut des panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 lorsque les panneaux 35 sont dans leur position verticale de manière à les maintenir en alignement avec les panneaux 3 et 4. Afin de pouvoir réaliser les déplacements des panneaux 35 par rapport aux panneaux transversaux 3 et 4, on voit sur les figures 5 et 6 qu'on a prévu des dispositifs repérés d'une manière générale par la référence 39 qui comprennent des axes 40 horizontaux et transversaux solidaires des panneaux 3 et 4 et des plaques 41 solidaires des panneaux 35 et présentant des évidements oblongs 42 dans lesquels pénètrent les axes 40. Bien entendu, d'autres systèmes assurant les mêmes déplacements et verrouillages pourraient être prévus.Referring to Figures 2, 5 and 6, we see that the transverse panels 3 and 4 have rectangular recesses 34 open upwards and that two rectangular panels 35 whose surface is slightly less than the surface of the rectangular recesses 34 are associated. These rectangular panels 35 can occupy a first position in which they extend inside the recesses 34 and extend the transverse panels 3 and 4 as seen in FIG. 5 and a second position in which they extend horizontally to from the horizontal lower edge of the recesses 34 of the transverse panels 3 and 4 for example constituting shelves as seen in FIG. 6. In addition, when the panels 35 are brought into their horizontal position, they can be pushed back towards the outside through recesses 34 so that lugs 36 which they carry can penetrate into recesses 37 formed in the inner face of the transverse walls 33 of the cover 7 to constitute means for locking the cover 7, these lugs 36 being able to enter recesses 38 open towards the top of the transverse panels 3 and 4 when the panels 35 are in their vertical position so as to keep them in alignment with the panels 3 and 4. In order to be able to carry out the displacements of the panels 35 relative to the transverse panels 3 and 4, it can be seen in FIGS. 5 and 6 that devices have been provided generally identified by the reference 39 which comprise horizontal and transverse axes 40 integral with the panels 3 and 4 and plates 41 integral with the panels 35 and having oblong recesses 42 into which the axes 40 penetrate. Of course, other systems ensuring the same movements and interlocks could be provided.

On va maintenant décrire comment on peut démonter et replier l'habitacle 1 en vue qu'il atteigne sa position repliée et rangée représentée sur les figures 3 et 4, à partir de sa position déployée visible sur les figures 1 et 2.We will now describe how it is possible to dismantle and fold up the passenger compartment 1 so that it reaches its folded and stored position shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, from its deployed position visible in FIGS. 1 and 2.

Tout d'abord, on tire vers l'intérieur et horizontalement les panneaux 35 de manière à dégager les ergots 36 des évidements 37 prévus dans les panneaux transversaux 33 du couvercle 7 et on fait pivoter vers le haut ces panneaux 35 de manière à les disposer dans les évidements 34 des panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 et en alignement avec ces derniers. Le toit 7 se trouve ainsi déverrouillé.First of all, the panels 35 are pulled inwards and horizontally so as to release the pins 36 from the recesses 37 provided in the transverse panels 33 of the cover 7 and these panels 35 are pivoted upwards so as to arrange them in the recesses 34 of the transverse panels 3 and 4 and in alignment with the latter. The roof 7 is thus unlocked.

On sépare en le déplaçant vers le haut le couvercle 7. On démonte et sépare les parois longitudinales 5 et 6 formées par les éléments 11 et 12 et les panneaux 15 et 16, en les soulevant de manière à dégager les axes 29 et 30 portés par les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 des panneaux 27 et 28 prévues dans les parois transversales 21 et 22 des éléments 11 et 12, les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 restant verticaux compte tenu du fait qu'ils sont portés par le fond 2 par l'intermédiaire des goussets 9 et 10.The cover 7 is separated by moving it upwards. The longitudinal walls 5 and 6 formed by the elements 11 and 12 and the panels 15 and 16 are dismantled and separated, lifting them so as to release the axes 29 and 30 carried by the transverse panels 3 and 4 of the panels 27 and 28 provided in the transverse walls 21 and 22 of the elements 11 and 12, the transverse panels 3 and 4 remaining vertical taking into account the fact that they are carried by the bottom 2 via gussets 9 and 10.

Ensuite, on rabat vers l'intérieur le panneau transversal 3 de manière à l'amener en position horizontale, ce panneau 3 pivotant autour des axes des goussets 9 qui permettent de ménager entre le panneau 3 replié et le fond 2 un espace dans lequel peut par exemple rester à demeure un matelas 43.Then, the transverse panel 3 is folded inwards so as to bring it into a horizontal position, this panel 3 pivoting around the axes of the gussets 9 which make it possible to provide a space in which between the folded panel 3 and the bottom 2 for example staying permanently a mattress 43.

On rabat l'autre panneau transversal 4 de manière à l'amener en appui contre la face supérieure du panneau 3 replié, les axes d'articulation des goussets 10, par l'intermédiaire desquels il est articulé sur le fond 2, étant, perpendiculairement au panneau 4, plus décalés que les axes d'articulation des goussets 9 sur le fond 2 de manière à permettre un tel empilage.The other transverse panel 4 is folded down so as to bring it into abutment against the upper face of the folded panel 3, the axes of articulation of the gussets 10, by means of which it is articulated on the bottom 2, being, perpendicularly to the panel 4, more offset than the axes of articulation of the gussets 9 on the bottom 2 so as to allow such stacking.

Ensuite, on rabat le panneau 16 autour de la charnière 20 de manière à l'amener contre la face extérieure du panneau 18 de l'élément 12 et on dispose cet ensemble au-dessus du panneau 4 comme s'il avait pivoté autour du bord longitudinal d'extrémité du panneau 18a. Ainsi, la face intérieure du panneau 18 vient en appui sur le panneau 4, le panneau 18a s'étend verticalement le long du champ initialement vertical des panneaux 3 et 4 et des parois 22 s'étendent verticalement le long et de chaque côté des bords correspondants des panneaux 3 et 4 initialement disposés en haut et en bas.Next, the panel 16 is folded around the hinge 20 so as to bring it against the outside face of the panel 18 of the element 12 and this assembly is placed above the panel 4 as if it had pivoted around the edge. longitudinal end of the panel 18a. Thus, the inner face of the panel 18 comes to bear on the panel 4, the panel 18a extends vertically along the initially vertical field of the panels 3 and 4 and walls 22 extend vertically along and on each side of the edges corresponding to panels 3 and 4 initially arranged at the top and bottom.

On rabat le panneau 15 contre la face intérieure du panneau 17 de l'élément 11. On empile cet ensemble au-dessus de l'ensemble formé par les éléments 12 et le panneau 16 déjà empilé comme s'il avait pivoté autour du bord longitudinal d'extrémité du panneau 17a. Ainsi, le panneau 15 s'étend dans le prolongement du panneau 16 et au-dessus du panneau 16 porté par le panneau 18 et du panneau 15 qu'il porte, le panneau 17a s'étend verticalement à l'opposé du panneau 18a de l'élément 12 et les panneaux transversaux 21 s'étendent verticalement à l'extérieur des panneaux transversaux verticaux 22 de l'élément 12.The panel 15 is folded against the inner face of the panel 17 of the element 11. This assembly is stacked on top of the assembly formed by the elements 12 and the panel 16 already stacked as if it had pivoted around the longitudinal edge. end of the panel 17a. Thus, the panel 15 extends in the extension of the panel 16 and above the panel 16 carried by the panel 18 and of the panel 15 which it carries, the panel 17a extends vertically opposite the panel 18a of the element 12 and the transverse panels 21 extend vertically outside the vertical transverse panels 22 of the element 12.

Il y a lieu de noter que les différents panneaux doivent être dimensionnés de manière à permettre cet empilage. En particulier, le renflement 14 délimité par l'élément 12 doit présenter, dans le sens longitudinal, entre ses parois transversales 22, une dimension intérieure légèrement supérieure à la hauteur des panneaux 3 et 4 en position déployée, le renflement 13 délimité par l'élément 11 doit présenter entre ses parois transversales 21, une dimension longitudinale intérieure légèrement supérieure à la dimension longitudinale extérieure du renflement 14 délimité par l'élément 12. Afin de rattraper les différences de dimension, on voit notamment sur la figure 4 que les goussets 9 et 10 présentent des évidements 44 qui sont parallèles aux panneaux 3 et 4 qui sont traversés par les axes d'articulation 45 portés par le fond 2, ces évidements oblongs 44 permettant aux panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 d'être déplacés horizontalement après qu'ils aient été en position repliée horizontale.It should be noted that the different panels must be sized to allow this stacking. In particular, the bulge 14 delimited by the element 12 must have, in the longitudinal direction, between its transverse walls 22, an internal dimension slightly greater than the height of the panels 3 and 4 in the deployed position, the bulge 13 delimited by the element 11 must have between its transverse walls 21, an internal longitudinal dimension slightly greater than the external longitudinal dimension of the bulge 14 delimited by the element 12. In order to make up for the differences in dimension, it can be seen in particular in FIG. 4 that the gussets 9 and 10 have recesses 44 which are parallel to the panels 3 and 4 which are crossed by the hinge pins 45 carried by the bottom 2, these oblong recesses 44 allowing the transverse panels 3 and 4 to be moved horizontally after they have been in the horizontal folded position.

Pour terminer le repliage de l'habitacle 1, on dispose le couvercle 7 sur l'ensemble déjà rangé de telle sorte que son panneau horizontal 31 s'étende horizontalement au-dessus du panneau 17 de l'élément 11 et que ces parois latérales verticales 32 et 33 s'étendent à l'extérieur jusqu'au bord périphérique du fond 2 et entoure les panneaux repliés et rangés au-dessus du fond 2.To complete the folding of the passenger compartment 1, the cover 7 is placed on the assembly already stored in such a way that its horizontal panel 31 extends horizontally above the panel 17 of the element 11 and that these vertical side walls 32 and 33 extend outside to the peripheral edge of the bottom 2 and surrounds the folded panels stored above the bottom 2.

Bien entendu, des moyens de verrouillage du couvercle 7 sur le fond 2 sont prévus, ces moyens de verrouillage pouvant être des moyens classiques et n'ayant pas été, en conséquence, répré- sentés.Of course, means for locking the cover 7 on the bottom 2 are provided, these locking means possibly being conventional means and have not therefore been shown.

Ainsi en position repliée, l'habitacle 1 se présente sous la forme d'un parallélélipède compact occupant uniquement sensiblement le volume du couvercle 7.Thus in the folded position, the passenger compartment 1 is in the form of a compact parallelepiped occupying only substantially the volume of the cover 7.

Pour déployer et remonter l'habitacle 1 de manière à l'amener dans sa position représentée sur les figures 1 et 2, il suffit d'opérer dans l'autre sens. En résumé, on sépare le couvercle 7, on sépare l'ensemble formé par l'élément 12 et le panneau 16, on sépare l'ensemble formé par l'élément 11 et le panneau 15, on déploie les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 de manière à les amener verticaux, on déploie les panneaux 15 et 16 et on assemble les ensembles formés par les éléments 11 et 12 et les panneaux 15 et 16 aux panneaux transversaux 3 et 4 grâce aux encoches 27 et 28 prévues sur les éléments 11 et 12 et aux axes 29 et 30 prévus sur les panneaux 3 et 4, on couvre cet ensemble ainsi formé par le couvercle 7 et on rabat les panneaux 35 de manière à verrouiller le couvercle 7 grâce aux ergots 36 sur les panneaux transversaux 3 et 4.To deploy and reassemble the passenger compartment 1 so as to bring it into its position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, it suffices to operate in the other direction. In summary, the cover 7 is separated, the assembly formed by the element 12 and the panel 16 is separated, the assembly formed by the element 11 and the panel 15 is separated, the transverse panels 3 and 4 are deployed so as to bring them vertical, the panels 15 and 16 are deployed and the assemblies formed by the elements 11 and 12 and the panels 15 and 16 are assembled to the transverse panels 3 and 4 by virtue of the notches 27 and 28 provided on the elements 11 and 12 and to the axes 29 and 30 provided on the panels 3 and 4, this assembly thus formed by the cover 7 is covered and the panels 35 are folded down so as to lock the cover 7 by means of the pins 36 on the transverse panels 3 and 4.

Bien entendu, il est avantageux de prévoir des joints d'étanchéité à tous les endroits nécessaires entre les différents panneaux, en particulier entre les parois latérales 3, 4, 15 et 16 et le couvercle 7, entre les parois latérales 3 et 4 et les parois latérales 11, 15 et 12, 16, entre les parois latérales 3, 4, 17a et 18a et le fond 2, entre les panneaux 15 et 16 et les éléments 11 et 12, et entre les bords du fond 2 et les bords inférieurs des parois latérales 32 et 33 du couvercle 7 lorsque l'habitacle 1 est en position repliée.Of course, it is advantageous to provide seals at all the necessary places between the different panels, in particular between the side walls 3, 4, 15 and 16 and the cover 7, between the side walls 3 and 4 and the side walls 11, 15 and 12, 16 , between the side walls 3, 4, 17a and 18a and the bottom 2, between the panels 15 and 16 and the elements 11 and 12, and between the edges of the bottom 2 and the lower edges of the side walls 32 and 33 of the cover 7 when the passenger compartment 1 is in the folded position.

L'habitacle qui vient d'être décrit permet, grâce à la structure des renflements 13 et 14 prévus dans les deux parois longitudinales opposées 5 et 6 d'obtenir un espace intérieur à l'habitacle important et un rapport de son volume en position déployée à son volume en position repliée également important.The cabin which has just been described makes it possible, thanks to the structure of the bulges 13 and 14 provided in the two opposite longitudinal walls 5 and 6, to obtain a large interior space in the cockpit and a ratio of its volume in the deployed position. at its volume in the folded position also important.

De plus, comme plusieurs de ses éléments sont séparables, il est facilement démontable et facilement remontable. Il peut en conséquence être monté et démonté ainsi que transporté sans difficultés particulières par exemple sur un véhicule automobile.In addition, as several of its elements are separable, it is easily removable and easily reassembled. It can therefore be assembled and disassembled as well as transported without particular difficulties, for example on a motor vehicle.

La présente invention ne se limite pas à l'exemple ci-dessus décrit. Bien d'autres variantes de réalisation sont possibles sans sortir du cadre défini par les revendications annexées.The present invention is not limited to the example described above. Many other alternative embodiments are possible without departing from the scope defined by the appended claims.
