Definitions

  • the present invention relates to molded plastic housings consisting of two half-shells assembled to each other according to a snap-on rim.
  • the boxes usually used for example for the protection of electronic circuits, the holding of badges, coins or other pieces of information, comprise a hollow box body closed by a snap-on cover. Examples of such boxes are described in documents US-A-4,915,214, US-A-3,100,567, US-A-4,141,400.
  • Document FR-A-2 620 257 also discloses a slot housing for the protection of an information carrier card.
  • the housing is formed by bonding or force engagement of two identical half-shells, the engaging surfaces of which include a tenon and a mortise opposite one another with respect to the median axis of penetration of the card.
  • Such a structure requires a significant thickness of the side walls of the housing, and does not allow relative engagement of the tenons and mortises over a significant depth.
  • this structure does not allow snap-fastening, and the size of a mortise is too small for it to be possible to economically produce by molding removable internal snap-fastening means.
  • a first problem proposed by the present invention is to design an economical housing formed of two identical molded half-shells, each comprising a flange with improved engagement means cooperating over an increased height with the engagement means of the flange of the other. half-shell, the engagement means ensuring both self-centering and locking in rotation of the half-shells one on the other, the side walls of the housing being able to have a reduced thickness.
  • a second problem proposed by the invention is to design such engagement means further allowing the adaptation of latching means produced by molding and allowing disassembly.
  • the invention further aims to provide means for fixing a ring for attaching the housing.
  • the fixing means must not protrude from the periphery of the housing, and must not require the opening of the ring for attachment to the housing.
  • rebate tenons and the half-mortises have contact faces facing one another which are easily accessible during molding, so that latching means can be produced by molding on these contact faces.
  • the flexibility of the tenons and half mortises allows disassembly.
  • the rebates of the tenons are oriented towards the outside of the periphery of the half-shell, the half-mortises being hollowed out on the internal face of the rim.
  • This arrangement favors a precise execution of latching means, allowing reliable latching.
  • latching means it may be advantageous to provide a half-mortise whose wall has a thickness less than or equal to half the total thickness of the corresponding side wall of the half-shell. This facilitates demolding of the half-shell during its manufacturing, and the reproducibility of the shape of the half-mortise latching element is improved, by using inexpensive molds.
  • the studs occupy less than half the perimeter of the flange.
  • the wall of the rim is deformed to constitute an external housing provided with a half-column generally parallel to the wall of the rim and intended to be assembled axially with a half-column. corresponding to the other half-shell to form a bail for hooking the ring.
  • a housing according to the invention is formed by two identical half-shells such as the half-shells 1 and 2 illustrated in FIG. 5.
  • Each half-shell such as the half-shell 1 comprises a main wall 3 is connected to a peripheral rim 4.
  • the main wall 3 is generally flat, and the peripheral rim 4 is generally perpendicular to the main wall surface 3.
  • the half-shell 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a peripheral flange 4 for obturation provided with two rebated tenons 5 and 6 respectively.
  • the tenons 5 and 6 are diametrically opposite one another with respect to the center of the shell, and they extend the rim 4 opposite the main wall 3.
  • the peripheral sealing rim 4 further comprises two half mortises 7 and 8 hollowed out in diametrically opposite parts of the rim 4 between the two studs 5 and 6.
  • the pins 5 and 6 are shaped and arranged so that they can be accommodated with little play in the half-mortises 7 and 8 of another identical half-shell. In the assembly position, as illustrated in FIG.
  • the respective rebates 13 and 14 of the studs 5 and 6 are oriented towards the outside of the periphery of the half-shell, and the half-mortises 7 and 8 are hollowed out on the internal face of the flange 4. L
  • the advantage is that, when the case is closed, the tenons and half mortises are invisible from the outside.
  • the tenons 5 and 6 occupy less than half the perimeter of the rim 4. The same is true of the half mortises 7 and 8.
  • the wall of the rim 4 is deformed to constitute an external housing 15, for example a housing with a cylindrical wall, provided with an outer half-column 16 generally parallel to the wall of the rim 4.
  • the half-column 16 is intended to be assembled axially with a half-column corresponding to the other half-shell, to form a bail on which can hang a ring such as the ring 17. It suffices to pass the ring 17 around a half-column 16, before assembling the two half -shells ( Figure 3). After assembly ( Figure 4), the ring 17 is secured to the housing, thanks to the continuity of the two half-columns 16 which join axially by their free end and which are integral at their base with the respective half-shells 1 and 2 .
  • each half-shell comprises at least two half-columns diametrically opposite with respect to the center of the half-shell, and two corresponding external housings: thus, in FIG. 1, there is a second external housing 18 and a second half-column 19, diametrically opposite respectively to the first external housing 15 and to the first half-column 16.
  • one of the half-columns 16 comprises a central tenon 20, which engages in a corresponding central mortise of the other half-column 19 of another half-shell.
  • the housing has a generally circular periphery.
  • an even number of tenons and an even number of half mortises can be provided.
  • the housing has a square outline, with two pins 5 and 6 in the central position on two opposite sides, and two half mortises 7 and 8 in the central position on the other opposite sides.
  • the housing can have a polygonal contour whose number of sides is a multiple of four. At least one tenon is then provided on one side out of two, alternating with half-mortises provided on the sides connecting two sides provided with tenons.
  • the tenons comprise, on their outer face, snap ribs or grooves 22, cooperating with snap grooves or ribs 23 corresponding to the inner faces of the corresponding half-mortises.
  • snap ribs 23 are provided on the inside faces of the half mortises, and snap grooves 22 are provided on the outside faces of the studs.
  • the snap grooves and ribs 22 and 23 have a linear longitudinal profile and a transverse trapezoidal profile. This improves the latching behavior, and reduces the wear resulting from successive latching and dismantling operations.
  • tenons and half-mortises makes it possible to provide, in the mold used for making the half-shells, a series of ejectors distributed around the periphery and bearing exclusively on the end edges of the tenons and on the bottom flanges half mortises.
  • the ejection traces, placed exclusively on the end edges of the tenons and on the bottom edges of the half-mortises, are thus invisible when the case is closed, and any trace of ejection on the main walls 3 of the housing, allowing for example an embodiment of transparent material.
  • breakable shims such as the shim 21 illustrated in FIGS. 1 or 2.
  • the breakable shims allow a plate inserted in the housing to be held between the two half-shells.
  • the breakable shims of one of the half-shells are then removed, so that the plate bears against the main wall of the first half-shell, and comes to bear on the ends of the breakable shims of the second half-shell.
  • the breakable shims 21 can advantageously protrude from the internal face of the main wall 3 of the half-shells.
  • the half-shells are oriented so that the pins 5 and 6 of a first half-shell are inserted into the half-mortises 7 and 8 of the other half-shell , and we match the half-columns such as the half-column 16.
