Definitions

  • the subject of the present invention is a device for manually controlling the opening of a vehicle door, of the type comprising a handle capable of tilting an actuating lever of an associated lock and articulated on a casing open towards the outside and capable of receive the handle, so that when the latter is in the rest position, its outer surface is practically in the plane of the outer panel of the door.
  • the case also contains a key cylinder and a threshing machine adapted to actuate the locking of the lock.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to propose a hinge mechanism for the handle such that the effective hinge axis of this handle is brought back inside the housing. This makes it possible to simplify the sequence of movements for placing the preassembled housing-handle block, only horizontal translations executable by a robot remaining necessary.
  • the handle is articulated laterally, on the one hand around two axes fixed to the housing and on the other hand around two mobile axes, integral with said handle, all these axes being inside the housing, each axis fixed to the housing being connected by a link to a movable axis and these axes being positioned so that straight lines each passing by a fixed axis and by a mobile axis connected by the same link intersect with the outside of the housing.
  • the handle is articulated on a system of deformable quadrilaterals whose sides are defined by the two fixed axes and the two movable axes.
  • the handle comprises a pallet provided with two lateral cheeks extending inside the housing and respectively articulated on two rods whose articulations on the cheeks constitute the movable axes and the articulations on the housing form the fixed axes, and two rods each cooperating with a respective cheek are integral with a connecting piece arranged so that its tilting around the two associated fixed axes causes the actuating lever of the lock.
  • the device for manually controlling the opening of a vehicle door shown in FIG. 1 comprises a box 1, of generally parallelepipedal shape and adapted to be housed in a cutout in the outer panel 24 of the vehicle door so that its outer face 6 is flush with the surface of the outer panel of the door.
  • the housing 1 is open on the outside, closed by a bottom 2 on the inside, and adapted to receive a handle 3 capable of tilting a lever 4 ( Figures 2 to 6) for actuating an associated lock, by through a linkage known per se and not shown.
  • the lever 4 is mainly located outside of the bottom 2 on which it is articulated by an axis 5.
  • the front face of the housing 1 is constituted by a plate 6 hollowed out to allow the passage of the handle 3 and the fingers of a user to operate this handle.
  • the handle 3 comprises a pallet or plate 7 provided with two lateral cheeks 8 extending perpendicularly in the housing 1 from the ends of the pallet 7.
  • Each cheek 8 is articulated on two links 9, 11 and 12, 13 around moving axes respective 14 and 15.
  • each pair of rods 9, 11 and 12, 13 is also articulated, at the ends of these opposite the movable axes 14, 15, around axes 16, 17 fixed to the housing 1
  • the two connecting rods 9, 12 contiguous to the pallet 7 are integral with a connecting piece 18 extended at one of its ends by a projecting lug 19 adapted to cooperate with a corresponding terminal lug 21 of the lever 4.
  • the links 9, 11, 1a connecting piece 18 and the tab 19 constitute a single piece.
  • the handle 3 is therefore articulated laterally, by each of its cheeks 8, around two axes 16, 17 fixed to the housing 1, and on the other hand around two mobile axes 14, 15, integral with said handle 3, all these axes 14 to 17 being inside the housing 1.
  • Each fixed axis 16, 17 is connected to a movable axis 14, 15 by a respective link 9, 11, 12, 13.
  • the links 11 and 13 each have a lower end portion 11a, 13a bent substantially at right angles to the link itself, and which carries the movable articulation axis 15. These bent end portions 11a, 13a penetrate in corresponding slots 10 formed in the bottom 2 of the housing 1.
  • the axes 14 to 17 are positioned in the housing 1 so that straight lines D1, D2 ( Figure 4) each passing through a fixed axis 16, 17 and through a movable axis 14, 15 connected by the same link 9, 11 or 12, 13 intersect on the outside of the housing on a theoretical axis of articulation of the handle 3 not shown ( Figure 4).
  • the user To tilt the handle 3, the user introduces his fingers into the opening of the face 6, then behind the pallet 7 which is pulled outwards.
  • the handle 3 therefore drives the links 9, 11 and 12, 13 by the movable axes 14, 15 accompanying the movement of the handle 3, while the links 9, 11 rock around the fixed axes 16, 17.
  • the protruding tab 19 lowers the tab 21 of the lever 4 which performs a rotation about its axis 5 and whose end 22 opposite to the tab 21 actuates the opening linkage of the lock.
  • the face 6 of the housing 1 has notches 26 (FIGS. 3 and 6) into which claws 25 projecting from the outer panel 24 can be introduced.
  • the pre-assembled block consisting of the housing 1, the handle 3 and its articulation mechanism in the housing can be put in place very simply by a suitably programmed robot. It suffices for the latter to introduce the block into the cutout of the door by a first horizontal translation, perpendicular to the general plane of the door, then to execute a second horizontal translation perpendicular to the first to bring in the claws 25 in the notches 26.
  • the final position of the block can be ensured by clipping or by screwing the housing 1 onto the panel 24 from the inside of the door ( Figure 3).
  • the articulation mechanism described can be modified without departing from the scope of the invention, insofar as the effective articulation axes of the handle 3 remain circumscribed within the volume defined by the housing 1.
