Description

La présente invention concerne un lève-vitre, notamment pour véhicule automobile, du type comprenant un curseur monté à déplacement dans une porte du véhicule sous l'action d'un mécanisme d'entraînement, de façon à entraîner une vitre, au moyen d'un doigt d'entraînement raccordé par sa base au curseur et engagé dans un trou ménagé dans la vitre. L'extrémité libre du doigt s'étend au-delà du trou et le doigt est retenu axialement dans celui-ci à l'aide de moyens de verrouillage.The present invention relates to a window regulator, in particular for a motor vehicle, of the type comprising a slider mounted to move in a door of the vehicle under the action of a drive mechanism, so as to drive a window, by means of a drive finger connected by its base to the cursor and engaged in a hole in the window. The free end of the finger extends beyond the hole and the finger is retained axially in the latter by means of locking means.

On a proposé des lève-vitres dans lesquels les moyens de verrouillage sont constitués d'une épingle engagée transversalement à l'axe du doigt dans une gorge annulaire prévue sur la partie du doigt émergeant du trou.Window regulators have been proposed in which the locking means consist of a pin engaged transversely to the axis of the finger in an annular groove provided on the part of the finger emerging from the hole.

Le montage de ce type de lève-vitre s'effectue en positionnant dans la porte le curseur et son mécanisme d'entraînement, puis la vitre, équipée d'un palier anti-bruit chaussé dans le trou, est introduite dans la porte. Le doigt du curseur est alors engagé dans le trou de la vitre. La mise en place, par un opérateur, de l'épingle sur le doigt, se fait en aveugle au travers d'une ouverture ménagée dans un panneau intérieur de la porte.This type of window lifter is fitted by positioning the slider and its drive mechanism in the door, then the window, fitted with an anti-noise bearing fitted in the hole, is inserted into the door. The cursor finger is then engaged in the hole in the glass. The installation, by an operator, of the pin on the finger, is done blind through an opening made in an interior panel of the door.

Ce type de lève-vitre présente des inconvénients, rencontrés notamment lors du montage. En particulier, la mise en place du palier anti-bruit dans le trou de la vitre n'est pas facile et il est fréquent que le palier anti-bruit soit mal centré et se déchausse. Il arrive également que l'épingle soit mal montée, de sorte que la vitre tombe dans la porte après quelques manoeuvres du lève-vitre.This type of window regulator has drawbacks, encountered in particular during assembly. In particular, the installation of the anti-noise bearing in the hole of the glass is not easy and it is frequent that the anti-noise bearing is badly centered and takes off. It also happens that the pin is incorrectly mounted, so that the window falls into the door after a few operations of the window regulator.

On a proposé, pour remédier à ces difficultés rencontrées lors du montage, une solution consistant à équiper la vitre, préalablement à l'insertion du doigt dans le trou de celle-ci, d'un dispositif formant palier anti-bruit à l'intérieur duquel est prépositionnée une épingle.To remedy these difficulties encountered during assembly, a solution has been proposed consisting in fitting the glass, prior to the insertion of the finger into the hole thereof, with a device forming an anti-noise bearing inside. which is pre-positioned a pin.

Cette solution n'offre toutefois pas entière satisfaction, en particulier parce qu'elle nécessite de rapporter plusieurs pièces sur la vitre, préalablement à son montage dans la porte.This solution does not, however, offer complete satisfaction, in particular because it requires bringing several pieces to the glass, prior to its mounting in the door.

La présente invention a pour objet un lève-vitre perfectionné qui remédie aux inconvénients précités, et assure en particulier un verrouillage rapide et sûr du doigt dans le trou de la vitre sans qu'il soit nécessaire de prévoir une ou plusieurs pièces rapportées sur la vitre préalablement à l'insertion du doigt dans le trou de celle-ci.The present invention relates to an improved window regulator which overcomes the aforementioned drawbacks, and in particular ensures rapid and secure locking of the finger in the hole in the window without it being necessary to provide one or more parts added to the glass before inserting the finger into the hole thereof.

Selon une première caractéristique de l'invention, les moyens de verrouillage comportent un manchon enfilé sur le doigt et retenu axialement sur celui-ci, présentant une partie déformable s'étendant au-delà du trou du côté de l'extrémité libre du doigt, et des moyens d'expansion actionnables, portés par le doigt, aptes à provoquer, lorsqu'actionnés, un élargissement de ladite partie déformable à une dimension radiale supérieure au diamètre du trou, de façon à retenir le doigt dans le trou de la vitre.According to a first characteristic of the invention, the locking means comprise a sleeve threaded on the finger and retained axially thereon, having a deformable part extending beyond the hole on the side of the free end of the finger, and actuatable expansion means, carried by the finger, capable of causing, when actuated, an enlargement of said deformable part to a radial dimension greater than the diameter of the hole, so as to retain the finger in the hole of the window.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, le manchon est en matériau déformable élastiquement.According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, the sleeve is made of elastically deformable material.

Selon une autre caractéristique, le manchon est apte à s'interposer élastiquement entre le doigt et le trou et présente une extrémité venant en butée axiale contre le curseur, cette extrémité étant pourvue d'une collerette radiale dirigée vers l'extérieur, apte à s'interposer élastiquement entre le curseur et la vitre.According to another characteristic, the sleeve is capable of interposing elastically between the finger and the hole and has one end coming into axial abutment against the slider, this end being provided with a radial collar directed towards the outside, suitable for s '' Elastically interpose between the slider and the glass.

Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, les moyens d'expansion comportent une came montée à basculement à l'extrémité libre du doigt et conformée pour entraîner en direction du manchon une bague montée coulissante sur le doigt, la bague étant conformée pour provoquer, par effet de coin, en se déplaçant en direction du manchon, ledit élargissement de la partie déformable du manchon.According to another advantageous characteristic of the invention, the expansion means comprise a cam mounted to tilt at the free end of the finger and shaped to drive in the direction of the sleeve a ring slidably mounted on the finger, the ring being shaped to cause , by wedge effect, by moving in the direction of the sleeve, said enlargement of the deformable part of the sleeve.

De préférence, la bague est retenue sur le doigt par butée contre la came, et comporte avantageusement une face axiale plane venant au contact de la came et une face axiale opposée tronconique, convergeant en direction du curseur.Preferably, the ring is retained on the finger by abutment against the cam, and advantageously comprises a plane axial face coming into contact with the cam and an opposite frustoconical axial face, converging in the direction of the cursor.

Dans une réalisation avantageuse, la came comporte deux ailes raccordées à un dos et un tourillon d'articulation de la came sur le doigt, s'étendant entre les ailes et perpendiculairement à celles-ci, le dos se prolongeant à une extrémité en avant des ailes pour former un levier destiné à faciliter le basculement de la came, l'extrémité opposée du dos se situant dans le plan des bords libres latéraux des ailes situés à l'opposé du levier, le basculement de la came s'effectuant d'un quart de tour entre une position d'insertion du doigt dans le trou, dans laquelle lesdits bords libres latéraux s'appliquent sur la bague sans élargir le diamètre du manchon et une position de verrouillage, dans laquelle les bords libres longitudinaux des ailes parallèles au dos s'appliquent sur la bague, la distance entre le tourillon d'articulation et lesdits bords libres longitudinaux étant supérieure à la distance entre le tourillon d'articulation et lesdits bords libres latéraux, de façon à provoquer un élargissement du diamètre du manchon lorsque la came est basculée.In an advantageous embodiment, the cam comprises two wings connected to a back and an articulation journal of the cam on the finger, extending between the wings and perpendicular to them, the back extending at one end in front of the wings to form a lever intended to facilitate the tilting of the cam, the opposite end of the back lying in the plane of the free lateral edges of the wings located opposite the lever, the tilting of the cam being effected by a quarter turn between a finger insertion position in the hole, in which said lateral free edges are applied to the ring without enlarging the diameter of the sleeve and a locking position, in which the longitudinal free edges of the wings parallel to the back are applied to the ring, the distance between the articulation pin and said longitudinal free edges being greater than the distance between the articulation pin and said lateral free edges, so as to cause a widening of the diameter of the sleeve when the cam is tilted.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse, le doigt est fendu obliquement sur la moitié de son épaisseur environ, la fente étant inclinée vers l'intérieur du doigt en rapprochement de l'extrémité libre de celui-ci pour former un crochet, le tourillon étant retenu, en position d'insertion de la came, dans le fond de cette fente par réaction du manchon.According to an advantageous characteristic, the finger is split obliquely over half of its thickness approximately, the slit being inclined towards the inside of the finger near the free end of the latter to form a hook, the pin being retained, in position of insertion of the cam, in the bottom of this slot by reaction of the sleeve.

Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse, le doigt présente un épaulement délimitant une première partie du doigt se raccordant sur le curseur et dont le diamètre correspond au diamètre intérieur du manchon, et une deuxième partie du doigt de diamètre inférieur au diamètre de la première partie et sur laquelle sont montées la came et la bague.According to another advantageous characteristic, the finger has a shoulder delimiting a first part of the finger connecting to the slider and whose diameter corresponds to the inside diameter of the sleeve, and a second part of the finger of diameter less than the diameter of the first part and on which are mounted the cam and the ring.

On a représenté sur la figure 1 un lève-vitre conforme à l'invention. Ce lève-vitre comporte un curseur 1 apte à se déplacer par rapport à un panneau de portière 2 sous l'action d'un mécanisme d'entraînement connu en lui-même. Plus particulièrement, le curseur 1 est monté coulissant sur une glissière 3 fixée au panneau de portière 2 et le déplacement du curseur sur cette glissière s'effectue au moyen d'un câble de commande 4. Ce dernier est actionné, de façon connue en soi, par des moyens de commande 5, comportant un moteur électrique ou une manivelle. Le curseur 1 est apte à entraîner une vitre 7 dans un déplacement vertical au moyen d'un doigt 10 destiné à être inséré dans un trou 6, ménagé dans la vitre 7.There is shown in Figure 1 a window regulator according to the invention. This window regulator has a slider 1 capable of moving relative to a door panel 2 under the action of a drive mechanism known in itself. More particularly, the cursor 1 is slidably mounted on a slide 3 fixed to the door panel 2 and the movement of the cursor on this slide is effected by means of a control cable 4. The latter is actuated, in a manner known per se , by control means 5, comprising an electric motor or a crank. The cursor 1 is able to drive a window 7 in a vertical movement by means of a finger 10 intended to be inserted in a hole 6, formed in the window 7.

Le doigt 10, allongé selon la direction d'un axe longitudinal L, généralement cylindrique de révolution autour de cet axe, est raccordé par sa base au curseur 1. La longueur du doigt 10 est telle que son extrémité libre s'étende au-delà du trou 6 lorsque le doigt est engagé dans ce dernier.The finger 10, elongated in the direction of a longitudinal axis L, generally cylindrical of revolution around this axis, is connected by its base to the cursor 1. The length of the finger 10 is such that its free end extends beyond of the hole 6 when the finger is engaged in the latter.

Une ouverture 8 est ménagée dans le panneau de portière 2 pour permettre à un opérateur de monter et verrouiller le doigt 10 du curseur 1 dans le trou 6.An opening 8 is made in the door panel 2 to allow an operator to mount and lock the finger 10 of the cursor 1 in the hole 6.

Ce montage, qui s'effectue à l'aveugle, est grandement facilité dans l'invention puisque le doigt 10 comporte des moyens de verrouillage actionnables par l'opérateur, sans qu'il soit nécessaire de rapporter après insertion du doigt dans le trou une pièce de verrouillage indépendante telle qu'une épingle, ou qu'il soit nécessaire de monter sur la vitre un dispositif de verrouillage, préalablement à l'insertion du doigt dans le trou, comme cela était connu auparavant.This assembly, which is carried out blindly, is greatly facilitated in the invention since the finger 10 comprises locking means operable by the operator, without it being necessary to bring back after insertion of the finger into the hole a independent locking piece such as a pin, or that it is necessary to mount on the glass a locking device, prior to the insertion of the finger into the hole, as was previously known.

La description de ces moyens de verrouillage se fera en référence aux figures 2 à 6.The description of these locking means will be made with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.

Conformément à l'invention, les moyens de verrouillage comportent un manchon 11 enfilé sur le doigt 10 et retenu axialement sur celui-ci. Dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit, le manchon 11 est réalisé en matériau élastiquement déformable, de préférence en caoutchouc, et présente une forme cylindrique de révolution de diamètre intérieur constant. Le diamètre extérieur du manchon 11 correspond au diamètre du trou 6. Le manchon 11 vient en butée à une extrémité axiale 12 sur le curseur 1, tandis que l'autre extrémité axiale 13 du manchon 11 s'étend au-delà du trou 6 du côté de l'extrémité libre du doigt 10, et en retrait de celle-ci.According to the invention, the locking means comprise a sleeve 11 threaded on the finger 10 and retained axially thereon. In the embodiment described, the sleeve 11 is made of an elastically deformable material, preferably rubber, and has a cylindrical shape of revolution of constant inside diameter. The outside diameter of the sleeve 11 corresponds to the diameter of the hole 6. The sleeve 11 abuts at an axial end 12 on the slider 1, while the other axial end 13 of the sleeve 11 extends beyond the hole 6 on the side of the free end of the finger 10, and back from it.

Le manchon 11 comporte avantageusement à l'extrémité 12, comme représenté, une collerette radiale 14 s'étendant vers l'extérieur, de préférence venue de formation sur le manchon. La collerette 14 est apte à s'interposer élastiquement entre la vitre 7 et le curseur 1. Par ailleurs, le manchon 11 s'interpose élastiquement entre le bord du trou 6 et le doigt 10, de sorte que le manchon 11 joue également, dans l'invention, le rôle d'un palier anti-bruit, amortissant les vibrations de la vitre. En variante, on pourrait proposer de remplacer la collerette radiale 14 venue de formation par une rondelle élastique rapportée.The sleeve 11 advantageously comprises at the end 12, as shown, a radial flange 14 extending outwards, preferably formed in formation on the sleeve. The collar 14 is capable of interposing elastically between the window 7 and the slider 1. Furthermore, the sleeve 11 is interposed elastically between the edge of the hole 6 and the finger 10, so that the sleeve 11 also plays, in the invention, the role of an anti-noise bearing, damping the vibrations of the glass. As a variant, it could be proposed to replace the radial flange 14 formed by an added elastic washer.

Si l'on se reporte plus particulièrement aux figures 3 et 4, on remarque que le doigt 10 présente un épaulement 30 délimitant une première partie 15 située à la base du doigt et dont le diamètre correspond au diamètre intérieur du manchon 11 et une deuxième partie 16, formant crochet, de diamètre inférieur au diamètre de cette première partie 15. La deuxième partie 16 formant crochet présente une fente oblique 29 s'étendant vers l'intérieur du doigt en direction de son extrémité libre, sur environ la moitié de son épaisseur.If we refer more particularly to Figures 3 and 4, we note that the finger 10 has a shoulder 30 defining a first part 15 located at the base of the finger and whose diameter corresponds to the inner diameter of the sleeve 11 and a second part 16, forming a hook, with a diameter less than the diameter of this first part 15. The second part 16 forming a hook has an oblique slot 29 extending towards the inside of the finger towards its free end, over approximately half of its thickness .

La longueur de la première partie 15 et l'épaisseur de la collerette radiale 14 sont telles que l'épaulement 30 se situe, dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit, à mi-épaisseur environ du trou de la vitre.The length of the first part 15 and the thickness of the radial flange 14 are such that the shoulder 30 is located, in the embodiment described, at about half the thickness of the hole in the window.

Conformément à l'invention, les moyens de verrouillage comportent des moyens d'expansion prévus pour provoquer un élargissement du diamètre de la partie du manchon 11 s'étendant au-delà du trou 6, à une valeur supérieure au diamètre du trou.According to the invention, the locking means comprise expansion means provided to cause a widening of the diameter of the part of the sleeve 11 extending beyond the hole 6, to a value greater than the diameter of the hole.

De préférence, comme représenté, ces moyens d'expansion sont constitués d'une bague 17 montée coulissante sur le doigt 10 et d'une came 20 apte à pousser cette bague vers le manchon.Preferably, as shown, these expansion means consist of a ring 17 slidingly mounted on the finger 10 and of a cam 20 able to push this ring towards the sleeve.

Plus particulièrement, la bague 17 est montée coulissante sur la deuxième partie 16. Le diamètre extérieur de la bague 17 correspond au diamètre extérieur du manchon 11. La bague 17 est conformée pour provoquer un élargissement du diamètre extérieur du manchon à une valeur supérieure au diamètre du trou 6, de façon à retenir après son insertion le doigt 10 dans le trou et elle présente à cet effet, sur sa face axiale tournée vers le manchon, une surface tronconique convergeant en direction du curseur 1, inclinée d'environ 60° par rapport à l'axe longitudinal L. L'autre face axiale de la bague 17, venant en butée sur la came, est plane et perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal L. De préférence, comme représenté, la paroi du manchon 11 est biseautée sur sa périphérie à l'extrémité libre 13 de façon à contacter sur toute son épaisseur la surface tronconique de la bague 17 lorsque cette dernière est dans la position de la figure 3, dans laquelle le manchon 11 n'est que faiblement ou pas comprimé.More particularly, the ring 17 is slidably mounted on the second part 16. The outside diameter of the ring 17 corresponds to the outside diameter of the sleeve 11. The ring 17 is shaped to cause an enlargement of the outer diameter of the sleeve to a value greater than the diameter of the hole 6, so as to retain after its insertion the finger 10 in the hole and it has for this purpose, on its axial face turned towards the sleeve, a frustoconical surface converging in the direction of the cursor 1, inclined by about 60 ° relative to the longitudinal axis L. The other axial face of the ring 17, abutting on the cam, is plane and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L. Preferably, as shown, the wall of the sleeve 11 is bevelled on its periphery at the free end 13 so as to contact over its entire thickness the frustoconical surface of the ring 17 when the latter is in the position of FIG. 3, in which the sleeve 11 is only slightly or not compressed.

Le déplacement axial de la bague 17 s'effectue au moyen de la came 20 montée pivotante autour d'un axe T perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal L sur la deuxième partie 16 du doigt 10. La came 20 comporte deux ailes latérales 22 planes et parallèles entre elles, raccordées à un dos 23 perpendiculaire aux ailes 22. La came 20 présente en section droite la forme générale d'un U. Un tourillon d'articulation 21 de la came 20 sur le doigt 10 s'étend entre les ailes 22, perpendiculairement à celles-ci. Le dos 23 s'étend à une extrémité en avant des ailes 22 pour former un levier 24 terminé par un bord arrondi, ce levier 24 étant destiné à faciliter la préhension de la came 20 par un opérateur pour effectuer son basculement. L'extrémité opposée 25 du dos 23 se situe dans le plan des bords libres latéraux 26 des ailes 22 perpendiculaires au dos 23, et situés à l'opposé du levier 24. Les ailes 22 présentent chacune un bord libre longitudinal 27 s'étendant parallèlement au dos 23. Les bords 26 et 27 sont orientés à angle droit l'un de l'autre et sont reliés par un arrondi, la réunion des bords 26 et 27 constituant un chemin de came s'appliquant sur la face plane de la bague 17 en vue de provoquer son déplacement axial.The axial displacement of the ring 17 is effected by means of the cam 20 pivotally mounted about an axis T perpendicular to the longitudinal axis L on the second part 16 of the finger 10. The cam 20 has two lateral wings 22 that are flat and parallel to each other, connected to a back 23 perpendicular to the wings 22. The cam 20 has in cross section the general shape of a U. An articulation pin 21 of the cam 20 on the finger 10 extends between the wings 22 , perpendicular to them. The back 23 extends at one end forward of the wings 22 to form a lever 24 terminated by a rounded edge, this lever 24 being intended to facilitate the gripping of the cam 20 by an operator to effect its tilting. The opposite end 25 of the back 23 is located in the plane of the free lateral edges 26 of the wings 22 perpendicular to the back 23, and located opposite the lever 24. The wings 22 each have a longitudinal free edge 27 extending parallel on the back 23. The edges 26 and 27 are oriented at right angles to each other and are connected by a rounding, the meeting of the edges 26 and 27 constituting a cam path applying on the flat face of the ring 17 in order to cause its axial displacement.

Plus particulièrement, la distance e du tourillon 21 à un bord latéral libre 26 est inférieure à la distance E du tourillon 21 à un bord longitudinal 27 de sorte que le basculement de la came 20, dans le sens de la flèche F, provoque un déplacement axial de la bague 17 de la distance E - e et l'élargissement, par effet de coin de la surface tronconique de la bague 17 sur la paroi du manchon, du diamètre extérieur de ce dernier pour former un bourrelet 28 dont le diamètre externe est supérieur au diamètre du trou 6. La vitre 7 est alors serrée entre le bourrelet 28 et la collerette radiale 14.More particularly, the distance e from the pin 21 to a free lateral edge 26 is less than the distance E from the pin 21 to a longitudinal edge 27 so that the tilting of the cam 20, in the direction of the arrow F, causes a displacement axial of the ring 17 by the distance E - e and the widening, by wedge effect of the frustoconical surface of the ring 17 on the wall of the sleeve, of the external diameter of the latter for form a bead 28 whose external diameter is greater than the diameter of the hole 6. The window 7 is then clamped between the bead 28 and the radial flange 14.

Le tourillon 21 est reçu au fond de la fente oblique 29 ménagée sur le doigt 10. La surface définissant la fente 29 à l'intérieur du doigt 10 est parallèle à l'axe T, c'est-à-dire perpendiculaire aux plans des figures 3 et 4. Le tourillon 21 est de préférence maintenu au fond de la fente 29 par réaction du manchon 11, et ceci quelle que soit la position de la came 20, basculée ou non. L'ouverture de la fente 29 est au moins partiellement obturée par la bague 17 lorsque le manchon est peu ou pas comprimé, de façon à prévenir tout départ accidentel du tourillon 21 hors de la fente 29. Bien entendu, le tourillon 21 est retenu plus fortement au fond de la fente 29 lorsque la came est dans sa position basculée, sous l'effet de la réaction plus importante du manchon qui se trouve alors plus fortement comprimé.The pin 21 is received at the bottom of the oblique slot 29 formed on the finger 10. The surface defining the slot 29 inside the finger 10 is parallel to the axis T, that is to say perpendicular to the planes of the Figures 3 and 4. The pin 21 is preferably held at the bottom of the slot 29 by reaction of the sleeve 11, and this regardless of the position of the cam 20, tilted or not. The opening of the slot 29 is at least partially closed by the ring 17 when the sleeve is little or not compressed, so as to prevent any accidental departure of the pin 21 from the slot 29. Of course, the pin 21 is retained more strongly at the bottom of the slot 29 when the cam is in its tilted position, under the effect of the greater reaction of the sleeve which is then more strongly compressed.

Le montage des moyens de verrouillage sur le doigt 10 s'effectue de la façon suivante. On commence par enfiler sur le doigt 10, non muni de la came 20 et de la bague 17, le manchon 11 puis la bague 17, avec l'orientation définie sur les figures 2 à 4. Plus on engage le tourillon 21 dans la fente 29, la came 20 étant en position non basculée, après avoir au préalable déplacé la bague 17 vers le manchon 11 de façon à libérer l'ouverture de la fente 29. Le tourillon 21 est alors retenu au fond de la fente 29 par réaction du manchon. Toutefois, dans cette position, qui correspond aux figures 1, 2, 3 et 5, le manchon 11 n'est que très faiblement ou pas comprimé de sorte que son diamètre extérieur reste inférieur au diamètre du trou 6. Le doigt 10 est prêt à être inséré dans le trou 6. Après insertion du doigt 10 dans le trou 6, la came 20 est basculée d'un quart de tour par une simple action sur le levier 24 dans le sens de la flèche F et le doigt 10 se trouve fermement retenu dans le trou. Pour le démontage il suffit de basculer la came en sens inverse.The mounting of the locking means on the finger 10 is carried out as follows. We start by threading on the finger 10, not provided with the cam 20 and the ring 17, the sleeve 11 then the ring 17, with the orientation defined in FIGS. 2 to 4. The more we engage the pin 21 in the slot 29, the cam 20 being in the non-tilted position, after having previously displaced the ring 17 towards the sleeve 11 so as to release the opening of the slot 29. The pin 21 is then retained at the bottom of the slot 29 by reaction of the muff. However, in this position, which corresponds to FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 5, the sleeve 11 is only very slightly or not compressed so that its outside diameter remains less than the diameter of the hole 6. The finger 10 is ready to be inserted into the hole 6. After insertion of the finger 10 into the hole 6, the cam 20 is tilted by a quarter turn by a simple action on the lever 24 in the direction of the arrow F and the finger 10 is firmly held in the hole. For disassembly, simply tilt the cam in the opposite direction.

Finalement, grâce à l'invention, la vitre peut être aisément montée à l'intérieur de la porte, sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'équiper la vitre d'un dispositif de verrouillage ou d'un palier anti-bruit préalablement à son montage dans la porte.Finally, thanks to the invention, the glass can be easily mounted inside the door, without the need to equip the glass with a locking device or an anti-noise bearing prior to its fitting in the door.
