Description

La présente invention a essentiellement pour objet une attache à montage pivotant sur un élément quelconque.The present invention essentially relates to a fastener for pivoting mounting on any element.

On connaît depuis déjà longtemps des attaches qui peuvent être montées à pivotement sur un élément quelconque et permettant de raccorder cet élément à une pièce quelconque.Fasteners have been known for a long time which can be pivotally mounted on any element and allowing this element to be connected to any part.

Cette pièce peut être par exemple une tige raccordée par l'intermédiaire de l'attache à un levier de commande du mécanisme d'ouverture et de fermeture d'une porte de véhicule.This part can for example be a rod connected by means of the attachment to a control lever of the opening and closing mechanism of a vehicle door.

D'une manière générale, ces attaches connues comportent une embase qui peut être montée pivotante sur un élément par l'intermédiaire d'un axe et qui porte une partie en forme d'étrier dans laquelle peut être accrochée une pièce, telle que par exemple une tige.In general, these known fasteners comprise a base which can be pivotally mounted on an element by means of an axis and which carries a stirrup-shaped part in which a part can be hung, such as for example a rod.

Toutefois, ces attaches présentaient un certain nombre d'inconvénients. Elles exigeaient l'interposition d'une rondelle incurvée entre l'embase de l'attache et l'élément sur lequel est fixée ladite attache, de façon à permettre un pivotement satisfaisant de l'attache par rapport à l'élément. Une telle rondelle non seulement représente un coût supplémentaire mais rend le montage de l'attache plus compliqué.However, these fasteners had a number of drawbacks. They required the interposition of a curved washer between the base of the fastener and the element on which said fastener is fixed, so as to allow a satisfactory pivoting of the fastener relative to the element. Such a washer not only represents an additional cost but makes the mounting of the fastener more complicated.

Par ailleurs, la partie en forme d'étrier des attaches connues ne permettait pas de résister à un effort de traction relativement important exercé sur la pièce ou la tige reçue dans cet étrier. Dès lors, ladite pièce pouvait s'extraire intempestivement de la partie en forme d'étrier de l'attache.Furthermore, the stirrup-shaped part of the known fasteners did not make it possible to withstand a relatively large tensile force exerted on the part or the rod received in this stirrup. Consequently, said part could inadvertently extract itself from the stirrup-shaped part of the fastener.

Aussi, la présente invention a pour but de remédier notamment à ces inconvénients en proposant une attache dont la structure est telle qu'elle permet d'éviter l'utilisation d'une rondelle et que la fixation d'une pièce ou tige sur la partie en forme d'étrier de l'attache est susceptible de résister à des efforts de traction très importants, de sorte qu'en aucun cas la pièce ou tige ne peut se dégager de l'étrier.Also, the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks in particular by proposing a fastener whose structure is such that it avoids the use of a washer and that the fixing of a part or rod on the part in the form of a stirrup of the fastener is capable of withstanding very large tensile forces, so that in no case may the part or rod be released from the stirrup.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une attache à montage pivotant sur un élément quelconque et permettant de raccorder cet élément à une pièce quelconque telle que par exemple une tige, du type comportant une embase qui peut être montée pivotante sur ledit élément par l'intermédiaire d'un axe et qui comporte sur deux côtés opposés des ailes s'étendant sensiblement orthogonalement à l'embase et permettant un accrochage de ladite pièce ou tige, caractérisée en ce que l'embase se prolonge par une branche repliée sous elle du côté opposé aux ailes pour former un U et comportant, tout comme l'embase, un orifice traversé par ledit axe, et en ce que ladite embase et ladite branche sont légèrement bombées avec une convexité tournée du côté de l'élément sur un bord duquel est inséré le U, pour ainsi jouer le rôle d'une rondelle favorisant le pivotement de l'attache sur ledit élément.To this end, the subject of the invention is a fastener with pivoting mounting on any element and allowing this element to be connected to any part such as for example a rod, of the type comprising a base which can be pivotally mounted on said element by through an axis and which has on two opposite sides wings extending substantially orthogonally to the base and allowing a hooking of said piece or rod, characterized in that the base is extended by a branch folded under it on the side opposite the wings to form a U and comprising, like the base, an orifice traversed by said axis, and in that said base and said branch are slightly curved with a convexity turned from the side of the element on an edge which is inserted the U, thus playing the role of a washer promoting the pivoting of the fastener on said element.

Cette attache est encore caractérisée en ce que du côté des deux ailes opposées précitées, l'embase se prolonge par une troisième aile sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan desdites deux ailes opposées et susceptible de se déplacer élastiquement entre celles-ci pour retenir par capture la pièce ou tige précitée.This attachment is further characterized in that on the side of the two opposite wings mentioned above, the base is extended by a third wing substantially perpendicular to the plane of said two opposite wings and capable of moving elastically between them to retain the part by capture or aforementioned rod.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de cette attache, la troisième aile comporte des bords opposés et repliés comportant chacun une échancrure sensiblement complémentaire d'une autre échancrure prévue dans chacune des deux ailes opposées.According to another characteristic of this attachment, the third wing has opposite and folded edges each comprising a notch substantially complementary to another notch provided in each of the two opposite wings.

On précisera encore ici que l'échancrure dans chaque bord replié de la troisième aile forme un bec permettant le clippage de la pièce ou tige précitée et sa capture dans l'échancrure des deux ailes opposées précitées.It will also be specified here that the notch in each folded edge of the third wing forms a beak allowing the clipping of the aforementioned piece or rod and its capture in the notch of the two opposite wings mentioned above.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de cette attache, la troisième aile prend racine sur un côté de l'embase à l'opposé du côté où prend naissance la branche précitée.According to yet another characteristic of this attachment, the third wing takes root on one side of the base opposite the side where the aforementioned branch originates.

A l'état de repos de l'attache, la troisième aile précitée fait avec l'embase un angle légèrement inférieur à 90°.In the resting state of the fastener, the aforementioned third wing makes an angle with the base slightly less than 90 °.

Egalement à l'état de repos de l'attache, chaque échancrure de la troisième aile forme avec son échancrure associée dans les deux ailes opposées, un orifice légèrement ouvert permettant le clippage de la pièce ou tige précitée, et après ce clippage, la capture de ladite pièce ou tige sur l'attache.Also in the resting state of the attachment, each notch of the third wing forms with its associated notch in the two opposite wings, a slightly open orifice allowing the clipping of the aforementioned piece or rod, and after this clipping, the capture of said piece or rod on the fastener.

On comprend donc que la fixation ainsi réalisée sera susceptible de résister à des efforts importants auxquels peut être soumise la pièce ou tige en question.It is therefore understood that the fixing thus produced will be capable of withstanding significant forces to which the part or rod in question may be subjected.

Mais d'autres avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère aux dessins annexés, donnés uniquement à titre d'exemple, et dans lesquels :However, other advantages and characteristics of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the appended drawings, given solely by way of example, and in which:

La figure 1 est une vue en perspective à échelle agrandie d'une attache conforme au principe de l'invention.Figure 1 is an enlarged perspective view of a fastener according to the principle of the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue en élévation et de côté de cette attache.Figure 2 is an elevational and side view of this fastener.

La figure 3 est une vue de face, suivant la flèche III de la figure 2.FIG. 3 is a front view, along arrow III in FIG. 2.

La figure 4 est une vue de dessus de l'attache, suivant la flèche IV de la figure 2.FIG. 4 is a top view of the fastener, along arrow IV of FIG. 2.

La figure 5 est une vue en plan et de dessus de l'attache en position montée sur un levier de commande d'un mécanisme de porte actionnable par une tige fixée par clippage sur l'attache.Figure 5 is a plan view from above of the fastener in the mounted position on a control lever of a door mechanism actuated by a rod fixed by clipping on the fastener.

La figure 6 est une vue de côté et en élévation de l'ensemble illustré dans la figure 5, suivant la flèche VI sur cette figure.Figure 6 is a side view in elevation of the assembly illustrated in Figure 5, according to arrow VI in this figure.

En se reportant plus particulièrement aux figures 1 à 4, on voit qu'une attache conforme à cette invention et réalisée en acier à ressort par exemple est essentiellement constituée par une embase 1 munie d'un orifice 2 et comportant sur deux côtés opposés des ailes 3 s'étendant sensiblement orthogonalement à l'embase 1 et formant en quelque sorte un étrier susceptible de recevoir une tige T bien visible sur les figures 5 et 6, de la façon que sera décrite en détail plus loin.Referring more particularly to Figures 1 to 4, we see that a fastener according to this invention and made of spring steel for example is essentially constituted by a base 1 provided with an orifice 2 and having on two opposite sides of the wings 3 extending substantially orthogonally to the base 1 and somehow forming a stirrup capable of receiving a rod T clearly visible in Figures 5 and 6, as will be described in detail below.

L'embase 1 se prolonge depuis son côté 4 par une branche 5 repliée sous ladite embase du côté opposé aux ailes 3, et cela de façon à constituer un U. La branche 5 comporte, tout comme l'embase 1, un orifice 6, ces deux orifices pouvant être traversés par un axe ou un rivet (non représenté), mais matérialisé par le trait X-X' sur la figure 6, et cela de façon à permettre le montage à pivotement de l'attache sur un élément quelconque, tel qu'un levier 7 bien visible sur les figures 5 et 6 et susceptible d'actionner un mécanisme 8 de commande d'ouverture et de fermeture de porte par exemple. Comme on le voit clairement sur la figure 6, le U défini par l'embase 1 et la branche 5 est inséré sur le bord 7a du levier 7.The base 1 is extended from its side 4 by a branch 5 folded under said base on the side opposite the wings 3, and this so as to constitute a U. The branch 5 comprises, like the base 1, an orifice 6, these two openings can be crossed by an axis or a rivet (not shown), but materialized by the line XX 'in Figure 6, and this so as to allow the pivoting mounting of the fastener on any element, such that a lever 7 clearly visible in Figures 5 and 6 and capable of actuating a mechanism 8 for opening and closing the door control for example. As can be clearly seen in FIG. 6, the U defined by the base 1 and the branch 5 is inserted on the edge 7a of the lever 7.

Revenant à la figure 1 et aussi à la figure 3, on voit que l'embase 1 et l'extrémité libre 9 de la branche 5 sont légèrement bombées de façon à présenter chacune une convexité tournée du côté de l'élément ou levier 7, plus précisément du côté du bord 7a de cet élément 7 recevant le U défini par l'embase 1 et la branche 5.Returning to FIG. 1 and also to FIG. 3, it can be seen that the base 1 and the free end 9 of the branch 5 are slightly curved so as to each have a convexity turned towards the side of the element or lever 7, more precisely on the side of the edge 7a of this element 7 receiving the U defined by the base 1 and the branch 5.

On comprend donc que l'extrémité bombée 9 de la branche 5 et l'embase bombée 1 joueront avantageusement et à elles seules le rôle d'une rondelle favorisant le pivotement de l'attache sur le bord 7a de l'élément 7.It is therefore understood that the curved end 9 of the branch 5 and the curved base 1 will advantageously and alone play the role of a washer promoting the pivoting of the fastener on the edge 7a of the element 7.

Du côté des deux ailes opposées 3, l'embase 1 se prolonge par une troisième aile 10 repliée et sensiblement orthogonale au plan des ailes opposées 3. Cette troisième aile 10 prend naissance sur un côté 11 de l'attache opposé au côté 4 où prend naissance la branche 5 repliée sous l'embase 1. On observera encore que la troisième aile 10 peut se déplacer élastiquement entre les ailes opposées 3 et, à l'état de repos de l'attache, la troisième aile 10 fait avec l'embase 1 un angle légèrement inférieur à 90°, comme on le voit clairement sur la figure 2.On the side of the two opposite wings 3, the base 1 is extended by a third wing 10 folded and substantially orthogonal to the plane of the opposite wings 3. This third wing 10 originates on one side 11 of the fastener opposite to side 4 where takes birth the branch 5 folded under the base 1. It will also be observed that the third wing 10 can move elastically between the opposite wings 3 and, in the resting state of the fastener, the third wing 10 made with the base 1 an angle slightly less than 90 °, as can be clearly seen in FIG. 2.

Cette troisième aile 10 comporte deux bords repliés 12 lui conférant la forme générale d'un U, ces bords étant situés entre les ailes opposées 3. Chaque bord replié 12 comporte une échancrure 13, de même que chaque aile 3 comporte une échancrure 14. Les échancrures 13 et 14 sont en quelque sorte complémentaires comme on le voit bien sur les figures 1 et 2 et, à l'état de repos de l'attache, elles forment un orifice 15 légèrement ouvert pour permettre le clippage de la tige T et son accrochage sur l'attache, comme on le décrira en détail ultérieurement.This third wing 10 has two folded edges 12 giving it the general shape of a U, these edges being located between the opposite wings 3. Each folded edge 12 has a notch 13, just as each wing 3 has a notch 14. The notches 13 and 14 are somehow complementary as can be seen in Figures 1 and 2 and, in the resting state of the fastener, they form an opening 15 slightly open to allow the clipping of the rod T and its attachment to the fastener , as will be described in detail later.

Chaque échancrure 13 des bords repliés 12 de la troisième aile 10 forme un bec 16 permettant la capture de la tige T dans l'orifice 15.Each notch 13 of the folded edges 12 of the third wing 10 forms a beak 16 allowing the capture of the rod T in the orifice 15.

Mais, pour une meilleure compréhension de l'invention, on expliquera ci-après comment s'effectue le raccordement de la tige T à l'élément 7 par l'intermédiaire de l'attache qui vient d'être décrite, en se reportant plus particulièrement aux figures 5 et 6.However, for a better understanding of the invention, the following will explain how the rod T is connected to the element 7 by means of the fastener which has just been described, while referring more particularly in Figures 5 and 6.

Tout d'abord, l'attache formant une pièce unique est insérée par sa partie en U définie par l'embase 1 et la branche 5 sur le bord 7a de l'élément 7 qui peut être un bras de levier, comme expliqué précédemment.First of all, the fastener forming a single piece is inserted by its U-shaped part defined by the base 1 and the branch 5 on the edge 7a of the element 7 which can be a lever arm, as explained above.

Ensuite, à l'aide d'un axe, rivet ou analogue (non représenté), traversant les orifices 2 et 6 de l'attache ainsi qu'un orifice (non représenté) du bord 7a, on réalise un montage sans rondelle et à pivotement de ladite attache sur le bord 7a.Then, using a pin, rivet or the like (not shown), passing through the holes 2 and 6 of the fastener as well as an orifice (not shown) at the edge 7a, an assembly is made without washer and at pivoting of said fastener on edge 7a.

Ensuite, la tige T, qui peut être filetée à son extrémité, comme on le voit sur la figure 5, est introduite à force dans les orifices 15 définis par les échancrures associées et complémentaires 13 et 14 de la troisième aile 10 et des deux ailes opposées 3 respectivement.Then, the rod T, which can be threaded at its end, as seen in FIG. 5, is force-fitted into the orifices 15 defined by the associated and complementary notches 13 and 14 of the third wing 10 and of the two wings opposite 3 respectively.

Plus précisément, la tige T, sous l'action de la pression, va agir sur les becs 16 pour repousser élastiquement vers l'extérieur la troisième aile 10.More specifically, the rod T, under the action of pressure, will act on the spouts 16 to push the third wing 10 elastically outwards.

Une fois que les becs 16 sont franchis, et que la tige T est logée dans les échancrures 14, la troisième aile 10 va revenir à sa position illustrée sur la figure 1, c'est-à-dire vers l'intérieur de l'étrier défini par les ailes opposées 3, pour venir s'accrocher sur le dessus de la tige T afin de réaliser finalement la capture de cette tige T dans l'orifice 15 défini par les échancrures associées et sensiblement complémentaires 13 et 14.Once the nozzles 16 are crossed, and that the rod T is housed in the notches 14, the third wing 10 will return to its position illustrated in FIG. 1, that is to say towards the inside of the stirrup defined by the opposite wings 3, to hang on the top of the rod T in order to finally capture this rod T in the orifice 15 defined by the associated and substantially complementary notches 13 and 14.

On a donc réalisé suivant cette invention une attache permettant un accrochage solide de la tige T de commande d'un mécanisme 8 de porte par exemple, et susceptible de résister à des efforts de traction ou de poussée importants. En outre, l'attache selon cette invention se suffit à elle seule pour réaliser l'accrochage de la tige et pour réaliser un montage à pivotement satisfaisant sur un élément quelconque et tel que par exemple le bord d'un levier de commande.A fastener has therefore been produced according to this invention allowing a solid attachment of the rod T for controlling a door mechanism 8 for example, and capable of withstanding significant traction or pushing forces. In addition, the fastener according to this invention is sufficient in itself to achieve the attachment of the rod and to achieve a pivoting assembly satisfactory on any element and such as for example the edge of a control lever.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiment described and illustrated, which has been given only by way of example.

C'est ainsi que la forme bombée convexe de l'extrémité 9 de la branche repliée 5, et de l'embase 1 peuvent être quelconques, de même que la géométrie des ailes opposées 3 formant étrier peuvent être quelconques, en fonction de la forme de la pièce qui doit être retenue sur l'attache. C'est dire que l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci sont effectuées suivant son esprit.Thus the convex convex shape of the end 9 of the folded arm 5, and of the base 1 can be any, as well as the geometry of the opposite wings 3 forming a stirrup can be any, depending on the shape of the part to be retained on the fastener.
