Definitions
- the present invention relates to an adjustment device rapid relative position of two elements.
- the subject of the present invention is a rapid adjustment device the relative position of two connecting elements, not requiring the collage of no “centering” and allowing to change one or the other of these elements or to act on one of them as simply as possible, while being easy to assemble and adjust.
- the device according to the invention comprises at least one plate of intermediate fixing on which is mounted in an adjustable manner according to minus one degree of freedom one of the assembly elements, this plate being itself fixed in an adjustable manner according to at least one degree of freedom on the other connecting element.
- the present invention is described below with reference to setting in position of an electronic card carrying light elements in relation to the corresponding indications serigraphed on the plate in glass ceramic covering this electronic card, but it is understood that the invention is not limited to this single application, and that it can be implementation in various other applications requiring adjustment simple relative position of two elements, this adjustment can be performed in one or more directions (in translation) and / or around a or several axes (in rotation).
- the device 1 shown in Figures 1 and 2 is intended to adjust the position of an electronic card 2 relative to a plate 3, in glass ceramic for example, below which this card is willing.
- the card 2 comprises, in addition to various electronic components, indicator lights 4.
- the card 2 is fixed on a support 6 which has, in the present example, a U-shaped section, the card being fixed on the part central section.
- the support 6 is itself fixed on a part intermediate 7 by one of its lateral sides, referenced 8, with the possibility of adjustment of their mutual distance.
- the part intermediate 7 is a substantially rectangular plate, the dimensions are roughly the same as those on side 8 of support 6.
- a one of its ends, the part 7 has an extension tab counter-bent 9. This leg 9 is bent a first time starting from the plane of the part 7 in the direction opposite to the support 6 and a second time so that its end is substantially parallel to the plane of the part 7.
- the end of the tab 9 is inserted into a rectangular slot 10 made in a wall 11 of the chassis to which the card 2 must be fixed, which is for example the chassis (or an element fixed on this chassis) of a device household appliances such as a cooking stove.
- a wall 11 of the chassis to which the card 2 must be fixed which is for example the chassis (or an element fixed on this chassis) of a device household appliances such as a cooking stove.
- the visible face of the wall 11 is that which actually facing the user of the device in question, and card 2 with its support 6 are mounted behind this wall 11, the plane of the card 2 being assumed to be horizontal and those on side 8 and part 7 vertical.
- the main axis of part 7 is then horizontal.
- the tab 9 of the part 7 is introduced into the slot 10 in which it penetrates with little play.
- the adjustable fixing of part 7 on the wall 11 is completed by an adjustment device 12 which comprises, in in this case, a screw 13 passing through a hole 13A made in the wall 11 and screwing into a threaded hole 14 made at the end of the part 7 opposite to that which is extended by the lug 9.
- the screw 13 is immobilized in translation relative to the wall 11 by any appropriate means (clips, hidden, ).
- a spring can be threaded on the screw 13, between the part 7 and the wall 11.
- the device 12 makes it possible to adjust the position of the part 7 mainly in rotation around a vertical axis passing roughly close to the level of the first elbow of the leg 9.
- the adjustable fixing of the part 7 relative to the wall 11 can be produced in various other ways, for example at using several screws passing through oblong holes in the wall 11, so as to allow adjustment in translation of the position of the piece 7 in several different directions and / or rotating around one or of several axes.
- the fixing of the support 6 on the part 7 is done, in the present example, using two identical cylindrical blocks, with circular section, made of elastic material (rubber, silicone, Neoprene, ...) referenced 15 and 16.
- the blocks 15 and 16 can be replaced by springs, in consequently modifying the fixing of the support 6 on these springs.
- These blocks 15 and 16 have, near one of their ends, a groove, 17, 18 respectively.
- These gorges 17 and 18 forcibly engage in "U" shaped openings, 19, 20, made near both ends of the support 6, in its lateral face 8 opposite the plate 7.
- the blocks 15 and 16 are each drilled with an axial hole 15A, 16A respectively, allowing them to be fixed to the plate 7 using screws 21, 22 and nuts 23, 24.
- the screws 21 22 pass through holes 25, 26 made in the plate 7 in correspondence with the axes of the openings 19 and 20. So advantageous, the nuts 23 and 24 are integrated (by molding for example) in blocks 15 and 16.
- FIG. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the intermediate part (part 7 of FIG. 1) of the device of the invention.
- the elements identical to those of FIG. 1 are assigned the same digital references.
- the intermediate piece 29 has the same function as part 7, fixing card 2 being done in the same way than in figure 1.
- the difference relates essentially to the fixing of the part 29 on the wall 11.
- This part 29 is bent at both ends 30, 31 which pass through openings 32, 33 made in the wall 11.
- This part 29 is made of elastic material to allow the introduction of ends 30, 31 in the openings 32, 33.
- the fixing in place and the position adjustment of the part 29 are carried out by means of a screw 34 passing in an oblong hole 35 made in the wall 11, midway between the holes 27, 28.
- the device of the invention allows the position to be adjusted components carried by the intermediate element (indicator lights 4 in the embodiment described here) with respect to fixed components (circles 5 serigraphed on plate 3 in this example) as well when assembling the machine or the apparatus comprising them only later (modification or troubleshooting), and this, very economically and simply, and with several adjustment possibilities (in translation and / or in rotation).
- fasteners adjustable from the support 6 on the intermediate plate 7 and from this plate on the wall 11 are not limited to the examples described above, and that any other suitable fastening device may be suitable, as long as it is as simple as possible and that the settings are easily accessible the user.
