Description

La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif qui est destiné à permettre le raccordement électrique du moteur d'un haut parleur comportant un saladier ajouré supportant une membrane.The present invention relates to a device which is intended to allow the electrical connection of the motor of a loudspeaker comprising an openwork bowl supporting a membrane.

Les dispositifs connus sont constitués par des supports isolants vissés ou rivés sur la paroi du saladier et comportant des contacts destinés, d'une part, à être reliés aux bornes du moteur et, d'autre part, à une source de courant électrique convenable.The known devices consist of insulating supports screwed or riveted to the wall of the bowl and comprising contacts intended, on the one hand, to be connected to the terminals of the motor and, on the other hand, to a suitable source of electric current.

La pose des supports nécessite un outillage spécial et engendre une certaine perte de temps. -L'un des buts de l'invention est de réaliser un dispositif remédiant à ces inconvénients.The installation of the supports requires special tools and causes a certain loss of time. -One of the aims of the invention is to provide a device which overcomes these drawbacks.

Le dispositif, selon l'invention est du type comportant un saladier et supportant une membrane dont la paroi latérale est pourvue d'ouvertures, ledit dispositif étant constitué d'un corps en matière isolante moulée conforme pour présenter une douille destinée à recevoir un organe mâle correspondant, dans la douille s'étendant au moins deux barrettes de contact destinées à être raccordées au moteur du haut parleur, et est caractérisé en ce que le corps comporte latéralement au moins une saillie présentant une face d'appui destinée à porter contre la paroi latérale du saladier et au moins deux pattes élastiques disposées de part et d'autre de la saillie et pourvues au voisinage de leur extrémité libre d'un épaulement destiné à coopérer moyennant une déformation élastique des pattes avec les bords des ouvertures correspondantes du saladier.The device according to the invention is of the type comprising a salad bowl and supporting a membrane, the side wall of which is provided with openings, said device consisting of a body of insulating material molded in conformity to present a socket intended to receive a male organ. corresponding, in the socket extending at least two contact strips intended to be connected to the motor of the loudspeaker, and is characterized in that the body laterally comprises at least one projection having a bearing face intended to bear against the wall side of the bowl and at least two elastic legs disposed on either side of the projection and provided in the vicinity of their free end of a shoulder intended to cooperate by means of an elastic deformation of the legs with the edges of the corresponding openings of the bowl.

Grâce à une telle disposition, la pose du dispositif est très rapide et ne nécessite aucun outillage.Thanks to such an arrangement, the installation of the device is very rapid and requires no tools.

Afin que le dispositif soit parfaitement centré, le corps comporte disposé entre les pattes élastiques un téton.So that the device is perfectly centered, the body has disposed between the elastic tabs a stud.

Suivant un détail constructif, les extrémités libres des pattes élastiques sont terminées par des parties en forme de coin, les faces en regard de ces parties constituant des rampes. Ainsi, pour la mise en place du dispositif, il suffit de le positionner à l'emplacement prévu, puis d'exercer une pression afin qu'il se verrouille automatiquement sur le saladier.According to a constructive detail, the free ends of the elastic tabs are terminated by wedge-shaped ties, the facing faces of these parts constituting ramps. Thus, for the installation of the device, it suffices to position it in the space provided, then to exert a pressure so that it locks automatically on the salad bowl.

Suivant une caractéristique particulière, le corps comporte au moins deux saillies sur une paroi latérale, chacune de ces saillies présentant une face d'appui qui forme avec la paroi latérale un angle aigu, cette dernière étant pourvue d'un prolongement situé dans le plan des faces d'appui et délimité par deux butées, les épaulements étant situés dans un plan parallèle à celui des faces d'appui. Ainsi, lorsque le dispositif est mis en place il s'étend sensiblement parallèlement à l'axe du saladier.According to a particular characteristic, the body comprises at least two projections on a side wall, each of these projections having a bearing face which forms with the side wall an acute angle, the latter being provided with an extension situated in the plane of the bearing faces and delimited by two stops, the shoulders being situated in a plane parallel to that of the bearing faces. Thus, when the device is put in place, it extends substantially parallel to the axis of the bowl.

Le corps peut comporter au moins un logement latéral pour recevoir un condensateur par exemple.The body may include at least one lateral housing for receiving a capacitor for example.

Enfin, suivant un détail, une des parois latérales du corps comporte deux languettes élastiques délimitant avec ladite paroi ledit logement.Finally, according to a detail, one of the side walls of the body has two elastic tabs delimiting said housing with said wall.

The slot 7 is crossed by a wing 9 of an L-shaped bar 11, the other wing 13 of which extends outside the side of the wall 2 and comprises a part 13a extending parallel to the wing 9 and a part 13b substantially perpendicular to said wing 9.

La fente 8 est traversée par une aile 10 d'une barrette 12 pliée en L et dont l'autre aile 14 est située à l'extérieur du côté de la paroi 3. L'aile 14 est identique à l'aile 13 et, comporte des parties correspondantes 14a et 14b.The slot 8 is crossed by a wing 10 of a bar 12 folded in an L and the other wing 14 of which is situated outside the side of the wall 3. The wing 14 is identical to the wing 13 and, has corresponding parts 14a and 14b.

Les barrettes 11 et 12 sont fixées par des tétons prévus sur la face externe du fond, qui traversent des trous des ailes 13 et 14 desdites barrettes et qui sont déformés pour présenter des têtes 16 (voir figure 3).The bars 11 and 12 are fixed by studs provided on the external face of the bottom, which pass through holes in the wings 13 and 14 of the said bars and which are deformed to present heads 16 (see FIG. 3).

Le corps 1 est destiné à recevoir un élément mâle comportant deux cosses femelles destinées à coopérer avec les ailes 9 et 10, ledit corps 1 comportant un décrochement 17 et deux pans coupés 18 de manière que ledit-élément mâle ne puisse être mis en place que dans une seule position angulaire.The body 1 is intended to receive a male element comprising two female lugs intended to cooperate with the wings 9 and 10, said body 1 comprising a recess 17 and two cut sides 18 so that said element male can only be placed in one angular position.

La paroi 5 comporte deux saillies 23 qui présentent deux faces d'appui 19, ladite paroi 5 comportant un prolongement 20 qui présente la même inclinaison que les faces d'appui 19. Le prolongement 20 est délimité par deux butées 22 et entre ledit prolongement 20 et les saillies 23 s'étend un téton 25 sensiblement tronconique. Les faces d'appui 9 et le prolongement 20 forment avec la paroi 5 un angle aigu.The wall 5 has two projections 23 which have two bearing faces 19, said wall 5 having an extension 20 which has the same inclination as the bearing faces 19. The extension 20 is delimited by two stops 22 and between said extension 20 and the projections 23 extend a substantially frustoconical stud 25. The bearing faces 9 and the extension 20 form an acute angle with the wall 5.

A partir de la paroi 2 s'étend une patte élastique 27 qui est terminée par une partie 28 en forme de coin avec une rampe 31, un épaulement 29 et une surface d'appui 30, l'épaulement 29 s'étendant parallèlement aux faces d'appui 19.From the wall 2 extends an elastic tab 27 which ends in a wedge-shaped part 28 with a ramp 31, a shoulder 29 and a bearing surface 30, the shoulder 29 extending parallel to the faces support 19.

Une patte 32 s'étend depuis la paroi 3 avec une extrémité en forme de coin 33 présentant une rampe 36, un épaulement 34 et une surface d'appui 35.A lug 32 extends from the wall 3 with a wedge-shaped end 33 having a ramp 36, a shoulder 34 and a bearing surface 35.

La paroi 4 comporte du côté de la paroi 2 un prolongement 39 et du côté de la paroi 3 un prolongement 39a, ceux-ci étant destinés à protéger les ailes 13 et 14 respectivement.The wall 4 has on the side of the wall 2 an extension 39 and on the side of the wall 3 an extension 39a, these being intended to protect the wings 13 and 14 respectively.

Le dispositif selon l'invention est destiné à être monté sur le saladier 38 d'un haut parleur, comme figuré en pointillés à la figure 3. Le dispositif se monte afin que les faces d'appui 19 et le prolongement 20 portent contre la paroi latérale du saladier 38, le téton 25 s'insérant dans un trou 37 dudit saladier tandis que la fixation est assurée par les pattes élastiques. En effet, le saladier comporte des ouvertures et les pattes 27 et 32 s'insèrent dans celles-ci coopérent par leur épaulement avec la face interne dudit saladier tandis que les surfaces d'appui 30 et 35 portent contre le bord desdites ouvertures.The device according to the invention is intended to be mounted on the bowl 38 of a loudspeaker, as shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3. The device is mounted so that the bearing faces 19 and the extension 20 bear against the wall side of the salad bowl 38, the stud 25 fitting into a hole 37 of the salad bowl while the fixing is provided by the elastic tabs. Indeed, the bowl has openings and the legs 27 and 32 are inserted therein cooperate by their shoulders with the internal face of said bowl while the bearing surfaces 30 and 35 bear against the edge of said openings.

Bien entendu, les bords des ouvertures avec lesquels coopèrent les surfaces 30 et 35 ont un intervalle légèrement supérieur à la distance séparant les surfaces d'appui 30 et 35 de manière que lors de la mise en place du dispositif les' rampes 31 et 36 en portant contre les bords correspondants des ouvertures engendrent un écartement élastique des pattes 27 et 32 celles-ci reprenant leur position initiale dès que les rampes ont franchi l'épaisseur du saladier.Of course, the edges of the openings with which the surfaces 30 and 35 cooperate have an interval slightly greater than the distance separating the bearing surfaces 30 and 35 so that when the device is put in place, the 'ramps 31 and 36 in laying against corresponding edges of the openings generate an elastic spacing of the legs 27 and 32 these returning to their initial position as soon as the ramps have crossed the thickness of the bowl.

Les ailes 13 et 14 sont destinées par des cosses convenables à être reliées au moteur du haut parleur.The wings 13 and 14 are intended by suitable lugs to be connected to the motor of the loudspeaker.

Le montage sur le saladier, du dispositif (comme on le voit à la figure 3) est rapide, sûr et ne nécessite aucun outil.
