Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a housing formed by two parts articulated one on the other and equipped with a one-piece clasp comprising a body capable of being slidably mounted in a first part of the housing, body on which means are provided. retaining means for defining a first position of said body in said first housing part, elastic return means for urging said body elastically to said first position, actuation means accessible from the outside through an opening in said first part of housing for moving said body by manual pushing, against the action of said return means, and locking means for keeping the housing closed.
  • such a one-piece clasp comprises a body on which two branches forming the elastic return means project laterally, on two opposite sides, these two branches cooperating by bending with two supports side provided on the first housing part. Due to the presence of these two branches projecting laterally from the body, the first housing part must necessarily be made in two parts, namely a bottom and a covering part, the clasp being mounted in the bottom before setting place of the cover piece. This complicates the assembly of the housing and increases the cost of the latter.
  • the present invention relates to a housing with a one-piece clasp which, while being of simple structure and manufacture, can be mounted in the last phase of assembly of the housing.
  • the clasp body is made so that it can be introduced into said first housing part by sliding through said opening of said housing part and that said retaining means cooperate, at the end of this mounting by sliding, snap-fastening with stop means provided on the first housing part so as to allow said locking means to cooperate with hooking means provided on the second housing part, under the action of actuating means and elastic return means.
  • the return means can be constituted by two oblique lateral branches converging in the direction of introduction of the clasp into the first part of the housing and bearing by their free ends against a support means arranged in the first housing part in the extension of said introduction opening.
  • the retaining means can advantageously be formed by notches laterally projecting from the body of the clasp at the birth of the two branches constituting the return means, while the abutment means are constituted by the opposite lateral inner edges of said opening of the first housing part.
  • the return means and the retaining means are formed on the body so as to be offset downward relative to the lower edge of the body, being elastically connected to the body with the possibility of pivoting in a vertical plane.
  • the return means and the retaining means can thus engage elastically, during the introduction of the clasp by sliding into the first part of the housing, in a recess formed in said housing part in such a way that one of the sides of said recess constitutes said abutment means and the other side constitutes said support means.
  • the return means may have the form of a closed loop, preferably a lozenge-shaped loop.
  • a one-piece clasp made of plastic, for example polyacetal, is intended to be mounted by sliding in the direction of the arrow 2 in Figure 1 in a part 3 of a housing, by an opening 4 planned in tranche 5 of the housing part 3.
  • the housing part 3 is the lower part or bottom part of a housing whose upper part 6 or cover part visible in FIG. 4 is articulated in a manner not shown on the lower part 3 opposite the section 5.
  • the clasp 1 comprises a body 7 of generally parallelepiped external shape. More specifically, the body 7 has, seen in plan, a U-shape, the core of the U constituting the large outer edge 8 of the body 7 and the two wings of the U constituting the two opposite small edges 9 of the body 7.
  • a rib 10 projecting outwards, over the entire length of the wafer 8, this rib 10 serving as a means of actuating the clasp 1.
  • the wafer 8 also carries, on the inner side, a cage 11 open upwards, the side opposite to the wafer 8 ends upwards by a hook-shaped head 12, the side 13 of which faces towards the wafer 8 is inclined in the form of a ramp.
  • the two sections 9 of the body 7 are extended opposite the section 8 by two oblique converging branches 14 ending at a short distance from each other.
  • each edge 9 has a notch 15 projecting laterally outwards.
  • Each notch 15 is defined, on the side facing the edge 8, by a sidewall 16 perpendicular to the edge 9 and, on the side facing the branch 14, by an oblique sidewall 17, forming a ramp (see FIG. 1).
  • the opening 4 provided in the housing part 3 to receive the clasp 1 has a height very slightly greater than the height of the body 7 of the clasp.
  • the width of the opening 4 is very slightly greater than the width that the body 7 has at the location of its edges 9, outside the notches 15, but less than the overall width of the body 7 at the location of the notches 15.
  • the opening 4 opens into a cavity 18 whose width is greater than the overall width of the body 7 of the clasp 1 at the location of the notches 15, this cavity connecting by two shoulders 19 to the opening 4.
  • the depth of the cavity 18 is slightly less than the distance separating the sides 16 of the notches 15 of the body 7 of the clasp 1 of the free ends of the branches 14 perpendicular to the plane of the edge 8 body 7.
  • the housing part 3 also comprises, in its upper face, an opening 20 whose function will appear later.
  • the clasp 1 as described above and illustrated by Figures 1 to 4 can be mounted in the housing part 3 by insertion in the direction of the arrow 2 into the opening 4, the arms 14 being turned forward .
  • the edges 9 of the body 7 bend slightly inward when the notches 15 pass through the opening 4, to then relax as soon as the notches 15 have crossed the shoulders 19 and come into place behind these shoulders.
  • the free ends of the branches 14 touch the bottom 21 of the cavity 18, so that when the notches 15 are snapped behind the shoulders 19, the branches 14 are slightly bent elastically.
  • the notches 15 do not hinder the mobility of the clasp 1 against the return effect of the elastic branches 14 in bending, under the action of a push exerted by hand on the rib d actuation 10 in the direction of the arrow as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the upper housing part 6 has a locking hook 22 which, when the housing is closed, crosses the opening 20 of the lower housing part 3 and cooperates with the hook 12 of the clasp 1, by the sliding of the ramp 23 of the hook 22 on the ramp 13 of the hook 12 until the two hooks snap one behind the other.
  • a clasp 30 comprises a body 31 slidably mounted in an opening 32 of a lower housing 33. Seen in plan, the clasp body 31 has a U-shape, with two parallel lateral wings 34 forming the small sections of the body 31 and a core 35 which here forms a large curved section according to the curved shape of the edge of the housing part 33, as can be seen in FIG. 5.
  • a cage 36 formed on the inner face of the edge 35 of the body 31 has, opposite the edge 35, a side shaped as a hook 37 as it appears better in FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • the body 31 of the clasp 30 is extended rearwards, at the base of the side of the cage 36 forming the hook 37, by a flat part 38 offset downwardly relative to the underside of the body 31 of the clasp 30.
  • the part 38 constitutes a pallet connected to the body 31 by a horizontal elastic articulation 39 defined by a weakening of the material at the location of the connection of the pallet 38 to the body 31.
  • the pallet 38 comprises a rigid retaining part 40, adjacent to the articulation 39, followed by an elastic return part 41 constituting a closed loop, having the general shape of a rhombus.
  • the housing part 33 comprises, to receive the pallet 38 of the body 31, in the extension of the opening 32, a hollow 42 of generally rectangular shape whose width is greater than the width of the pallet 38 and whose length substantially corresponds to the length of part 38.
  • the clasp 30 For mounting the clasp 30 in the housing part 33, the clasp 30 is introduced, the pallet 38 facing forwards, into the opening 32 whose height and width are slightly greater than the height and width of the body 31. During this sliding insertion movement, the pallet 38 can flex elastically upwards around the joint 39.
  • the recess 42 thus constitutes both the support means for the loop 41 serving as elastic return means whose free end bears against the front flank of the recess 42, and abutment means preventing the clasp 30 from coming out of the housing part 33, the retaining part 40 of the pallet 38 coming to bear against the front flank of the hollow 42.
