Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hinge with integrated door stop intended to be mounted on the doors of motor vehicles, but which can be applied to any system comprising openings.
  • a hinge with integrated door stop intended to be mounted on the doors of motor vehicles, but which can be applied to any system comprising openings.
  • the connection between the door and the body of a vehicle is ensured, on the one hand, by means of two hinges, and, on the other hand, with a device called "door stop” whose purpose is to limit the opening stroke of the door and ensuring two stops at intermediate positions of said door, called parking and full opening positions.
  • the subject of the invention is the production of a door stop hinge making it possible to have a door stop as soon as the door is mounted; it also allows rapid removal of said door and supports the "paint" range of the vehicle without degrading its performance, which constitutes highly appreciable advantages on vehicle assembly lines.
  • FIG 17 is a perspective view of an elastic blade of the hinge of Figure 15.
  • a door P of a motor vehicle with its hinges C1 and C2.
  • the lower hinge can be a hinge of known type, the upper hinge C1 being a hinge according to the present invention which will be more particularly described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.
  • the stop hinge C1 according to the invention consists of a fixed knuckle 1 mounted on the body V of the vehicle by means of a clamp la and a movable knuckle 2 fixed by means of a clamp la and a movable knuckle 2 fixed on the door P of the vehicle also by means a flange 2a in a manner known per se.
  • the fixed knuckle 1 has a cylindrical bore 3 provided with notches 4 and recesses 5. It receives a hinge pin 6 rotating between two bearings 7 and 8 provided with self-lubricating rings 9 and 10. These bearings 7 and 8 are screwed at each end of the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1 to allow the mounting of the hinge pin 6.
  • This hinge pin 6 has a central part of larger diameter, 6a provided with bosses 11 distributed at its periphery by group of two.
  • Each elastic blade or spring 12 (FIG. 6) has in its middle a protuberance 13 bearing on the bosses 11 of the hinge pin 6a and lugs 14 intended to be housed in the notches 4 of the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1 to hold the elastic blade 12 in place in said bore when the axis 6 rotates.
  • the movable knuckle 2 fixed on the door P is mounted at the upper end of the hinge pin 6 (fig. 1 and 2) and is made solitary of said axis so that the opening and closing of the door causes the pivoting of said axis 6.
  • the operation of the hinge according to the invention is as follows: .
  • the movable knuckle 2 drives the articulation axis 6 in rotation via one of the three connections described and shown in FIGS. 7 to 9.
  • the legs 14 of the elastic blades 12 housed in the notches 4 prevent them from rotating under the rotational force of the axis 6.
  • the elastic blades 12 have reinforcements 12a so as to ensure the rigidity of the boss 13 (FIG. 6).
  • FIGs 10 to 12 there is shown in section the hinge axis 6a with the elastic blades 12 mounted in the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1 in three different positions.
  • the bosses 11 of the axis 6a are arranged in groups of two in order to obtain two points 11a and 11b for holding on the door rotation stroke, the variation in the number of bosses 11 per group allowing the number of door holding points to be varied.
  • the axis 6a is shown in the open door position (fig.10) with the door open in the parking position (fig.11) and the door closed (fig.12).
  • bosses and elastic blades can be lower or higher to obtain different operating forces.
  • each elastic means consists of two superimposed blades, 12 and 12 ′.
  • These blades can have an identical configuration or be different depending on the maneuvering effort that one wishes to obtain.
  • angles are given by way of examples and are not limiting.
  • the full opening stop is provided by a tab 22 of the movable knuckle 2 which comes into contact with a bearing surface 23 of the fixed knuckle 1 as shown in FIG. 13 which shows, in plan, the hinge according to the invention, the door of the vehicle open to the maximum.
  • the door stop device described above can be reversed.
  • the articulation axis 6 with its central part 6a, comprising bosses 11 and the elastic blades 12 intended to cooperate with the bosses 11 of the articulation axis 6a are arranged in the movable knuckle 2.
  • the object of this embodiment is to strengthen the resistance of the elastic blades and thus increase their longevity.
  • stops of elastic material are inserted between the blades 12 and the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1.
  • stops arranged in housings provided for this purpose in the body of the fixed knuckle act as a shock absorber or spring.
  • said elastic stops are compressed and make it possible to obtain significant operating torques.
  • the configuration of the elastic blades 12 is modified.
  • these blades each included three fixing lugs 14 as well as three reinforcements 12a, intended to ensure the rigidity of the boss 13.
  • the elastic blade according to the variant now only has one folded continuous edge or rim ensuring more rigidity to said blade.
  • the fixed knuckle 1 having a cylindrical bore 3 provided with notches 4 and recesses 5; an articulation axis 6 rotating between two bearings 7 and 8 provided with self-lubricating rings 9 and 10, said bearings being screwed at each end of the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1.
  • the articulation axis includes bosses 11 in its central part 6a. Between the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1 and the hinge pin 6a, three flexible blades 12 are inserted which cooperate with the bosses 11 of the hinge pin. On the back of each elastic blade 12 are inserted stops 30, also elastic, disposed in housings 31 provided in the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1.
  • These elastic stops are in the form of a profile, of elastomeric or similar material, having a section allowing it to match on one side, on the back of the blade 12, the shape of the boss 13, and the other to lodge and stay there, in the groove constituting its housing 31 provided in the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1.
  • each elastic or flexible blade 12 with its boss 13 has only a flange 32, obtained by folding or stamping, in place of the legs 14 of the previous embodiment.
  • This continuous rim 32 has in its middle, a recess 32a, intended to avoid any play when it is engaged in the notch 4 of the bore 3 of the fixed knuckle 1.
  • This rim 32 gives more rigidity in the longitudinal direction to blade 12.
  • this hinge is as follows: when the door is opened, the hinge pin 6 pivots.
  • the rotation of the axis 6 brings its bosses 11 against the boss 13 of each flexible blade 12 causing the flexion thereof and the compression of the stopper 30 in elastomer which is behind it.
  • the effort to erase the boss 13 as well as the compression of the stopper 30 generate a significant torque while ensuring better resistance to fatigue of the blades 12.
  • the stamped edge 32 of the blades 12 provides better support in the notches 4, without play, during the rotation of the axis 6.
  • the hinge with integrated door stop according to the invention allows, on vehicle production lines to quickly mount the doors, position them and then remove them for the passage of the body in the paint bath and their rapid reassembly and final and, moreover, ensures a door stop from the first assembly;
  • the present invention can be applied to any other opening which it is desired to obtain several opening points.
