Description
La présente invention concerne un agencement pour la commande d'une serrure, équipant un véhicule automobile, au moyen d'un verrou.The present invention relates to an arrangement for controlling a lock fitted to a motor vehicle, by means of a lock.
L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un agencement pour la transmission mécanique d'un mouvement de rotation entre un organe rotatif de sortie, appartenant à un verrou d'un véhicule automobile, et un organe rotatif d'entrée, dont l'axe de rotation n'est pas coaxial à celui de l'organe de sortie, appartenant à un mécanisme d'une serrure, au moyen d'un arbre de transmission.The invention relates more particularly to a arrangement for mechanical transmission of a movement of rotation between a rotary output member, belonging to a lock of a motor vehicle, and a rotary input member, whose axis of rotation is not coaxial with that of the outlet, belonging to a mechanism of a lock, by means a transmission shaft.
Compte tenu des difficultés d'agencement du verrou et du mécanisme de serrure associés, par exemple dans une porte de véhicule automobile, et notamment en fonction de la place disponible et de l'encombrement résultant des autres équipements de la porte, il est souvent nécessaire que la transmission de mouvement entre le rotor du verrou, ou tout autre organe rotatif de sortie de ce dernier, et un organe d'entrée du mécanisme de serrure puisse être assurée au moyen d'un élément intermédiaire de transmission qui peut être une tringlerie et, de préférence, un arbre de transmission de conception simple et permettant l'entraínement angulaire sans jeu du mécanisme de serrure auquel il peut transmettre des couples relativement importants.Given the difficulties in arranging the lock and associated lock mechanism, for example in a motor vehicle door, and in particular depending on the available space and congestion resulting from others door equipment it is often necessary that the transmission of movement between the lock rotor, or any other rotary output member thereof, and a member entry mechanism can be ensured at by means of an intermediate transmission element which can be a linkage and preferably a drive shaft simple design and allowing angular drive without play of the lock mechanism to which it can transmit relatively large couples.
Ces difficultés imposent de pouvoir transmettre le mouvement entre deux organes rotatifs dont les axes ne sont pas alignés ni même parallèles, ces défauts géométriques étant de plus variables en fonction des tolérances de fabrication et d'assemblage des différents éléments.These difficulties make it necessary to be able to transmit the movement between two rotary members whose axes are not not aligned or even parallel, these geometric defects being more variable according to the tolerances of manufacture and assembly of the different elements.
Afin de remédier à ces inconvénients, il a déjà été proposé un agencement dans lequel chacune des deux extrémités opposées de l'arbre de transmission, avant et arrière, est liée en rotation à l'un des deux organes rotatifs, de sortie et d'entrée respectivement, par un joint de transmission articulé autorisant un déplacement angulaire relatif entre l'axe de l'arbre de transmission et l'axe de rotation de l'organe rotatif correspondant, ainsi qu'un déplacement axial relatif.In order to remedy these drawbacks, it has already been proposed an arrangement in which each of the two opposite ends of the drive shaft, front and rear, is linked in rotation to one of the two rotary members, output and input respectively, by a transmission joint articulated allowing relative angular displacement between the axis of the drive shaft and the axis of rotation of the member corresponding rotary, as well as a relative axial displacement.
Un tel déplacement axial relatif de l'arbre de transmission par rapport aux organes de sortie et d'entrée est d'une part générateur de bruits et d'usure et, d'autre part, il ne permet pas de monter l'arbre de transmission "en aveugle" par rapport à la serrure.Such relative axial displacement of the shaft of transmission with respect to the output and input devices is on the one hand generating noise and wear and, on the other hand, it does not not possible to mount the drive shaft "blind" by compared to the lock.
Afin de remédier à ces inconvénients, l'invention propose un agencement pour la transmission mécanique d'un mouvement de rotation entre un organe rotatif de sortie, appartenant à un verrou d'un véhicule automobile, et un organe rotatif d'entrée dont l'axe de rotation n'est pas coaxial à celui de l'organe de sortie, appartenant à un mécanisme d'une serrure, au moyen d'un arbre de transmission, du type dans lequel chacune des deux extrémités opposées de l'arbre de transmission, avant et arrière, est liée en rotation à l'un des deux organes rotatifs, de sortie et d'entrée respectivement, par un joint de transmission articulé autorisant un défaut d'alignement relatif entre l'axe de l'arbre de transmission et l'axe de rotation de l'organe rotatif correspondant, caractérisé en ce que le joint de transmission avant est un joint de Cardan de manière que l'arbre de transmission soit immobilisé longitudinalement par rapport à l'organe rotatif de sortie.In order to remedy these drawbacks, the invention proposes an arrangement for the mechanical transmission of a rotational movement between a rotary output member, belonging to a lock of a motor vehicle, and a rotary input device whose axis of rotation is not coaxial to that of the output member, belonging to a mechanism a lock, by means of a drive shaft, of the type wherein each of the two opposite ends of the shaft transmission, front and rear, is linked in rotation to one of the two rotary members, output and input respectively, by an articulated transmission joint authorizing a fault relative alignment between the axis of the propeller shaft and the axis of rotation of the corresponding rotary member, characterized in that the front transmission joint is a universal joint so that the drive shaft is immobilized longitudinally with respect to the rotary outlet member.

L'agencement 10 illustré à la figure 1 comporte un
verrou 12 dont on a représenté seulement un stator 14, qui est
par exemple destiné à équiper une porte de véhicule
automobile, et son organe rotatif de sortie 16 qui est monté à
rotation dans le stator 14 autour d'un axe A1.The
Comme on peut le voir à la figure 2, l'organe de sortie
rotatif 16 est lié axialement à un élément interne 18 par un
anneau élastique 20, ou circlips, reçu radialement dans une
gorge 22.As can be seen in Figure 2, the
Le verrou 12 est destiné à entraíner en rotation un
mécanisme de serrure dont on a représenté schématiquement
un organe rotatif 24 d'entrée de mouvement qui est prévu pour
tourner par rapport à un boítier de serrure non représenté sur
les figures, autour d'un axe de rotation A3.The
Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, la
transmission de mouvement entre l'organe rotatif de sortie 16
et l'organe rotatif d'entrée 24 est assurée au moyen d'un arbre
de transmission 26, d'axe longitudinal A2, dont les deux
extrémités longitudinales opposées, avant 28 et arrière 30,
sont respectivement liées en rotation à l'organe de sortie 16 et
à l'organe d'entrée 24 chacune par un joint de transmission
articulé autorisant un défaut d'alignement entre l'axe A2 de
l'arbre de transmission 26 et l'axe de rotation A1, A3 de
l'organe rotatif correspondant 16, 24.In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the
transmission of movement between the
Le joint articulé de transmission agencé à l'extrémité
arrière 30 est constitué pour l'essentiel par une sphère
d'articulation 32 qui comporte deux bras radiaux diamétralement
opposés 34 qui s'étendent vers l'extérieur, cet ensemble
étant reçu dans l'extrémité tubulaire ouverte 36 en vis-à-vis de
l'organe rotatif d'entrée 24 dont le logement interne cylindrique
38 est complémentaire des dimensions de la sphère 32 et qui
comporte deux fentes axiales débouchantes 40 qui reçoivent
en coulissement et en rotation les bras 34. Cette conception
connue permet d'introduire axialement, d'avant en arrière,
l'extrémité 30 dans l'organe 24.The articulated transmission joint arranged at the end
rear 30 mainly consists of a
Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, le
joint de transmission articulé qui relie l'extrémité longitudinale
avant 28 de l'arbre de transmission 26 à l'organe rotatif de
sortie 16 est un joint articulé de Cardan, c'est-à-dire dont les
deux axes sont concourants et qui immobilise longitudinalement
les deux composants articulés entre eux autour d'un
centre de rotation.In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the
articulated transmission joint that connects the
Le joint de Cardan comporte une sphère d'articulation
42 qui est reçue axialement dans un alésage cylindrique 44
d'axe A1 formé dans un prolongement tubulaire 46 d'extrémité
longitudinale arrière de l'organe rotatif de sortie 16.Cardan joint has a
Le joint d'articulation comporte une tige cylindrique
d'articulation 48 qui s'étend diamétralement, selon un axe A4
perpendiculaire et concourant à l'axe A1, et qui est monté
dans le prolongement tubulaire 46 à la manière d'une goupille
diamétrale.The joint joint has a
La sphère d'articulation comporte un trou circulaire 50
à travers lequel la tige d'articulation 48 s'étend verticalement
avec un léger jeu de manière à permettre une rotation relative
de la sphère 42 par rapport à la tige d'articulation fixe 48
autour de l'axe A4.The articulation sphere has a
Le trou circulaire 50 est agencé dans un plan axial de
l'arbre de transmission 26 et dans un plan diamétral de la
sphère 42 centrée sur l'axe A2, et il se prolonge verticalement,
vers le haut et vers le bas (en considérant les figures 1 et 2),
par une fente de guidage supérieure 54 et inférieure 56. The
Les deux fentes 54 et 56 sont symétriques par rapport
au plan vertical médian correspondant au plan de coupe de la
figure 2 et par rapport au plan horizontal médian dans lequel
s'étend le trou circulaire 50.The two
La largeur transversale de chacune des fentes de
guidage 54 est, comme on peut le voir notamment sur la figure
3, égale au diamètre du trou 50 et est donc sensiblement égale
au diamètre de la tige d'articulation 58.The transverse width of each of the
Chacune des deux fentes 54, 56 qui s'étend dans un
plan vertical médian de l'arbre de transmission 26 présente un
profil évasé s'ouvrant respectivement vers le haut et vers le
bas et qui, dans l'exemple illustré sur les figures, est un profil
en V.Each of the two
Grâce à la conception des fentes 54 et 56, la sphère
d'articulation 42, et donc l'arbre de transmission 26, peut
tourner dans les deux sens autour d'un axe transversal A5
perpendiculaire et concourant à l'axe A4 de la tige d'articulation
48, c'est-à-dire que, globalement, l'extrémité longitudinale
avant 28 de l'arbre de transmission 26 est articulé par rapport
à l'organe de sortie 16 par un joint de Cardan dont le centre de
rotation C, correspondant à l'intersection des axes A4 et A5,
correspond au point de concours des axes A1 et A2.Thanks to the design of

axes A1 et A2 est agencé autour de l'arbre de transmission 26
entre son extrémité avant 28 et le prolongement tubulaire 46.A lightly calibrated
Le profil évasé en V des fentes 54, 56 permet un
débattement angulaire de l'arbre de transmission 26 autour de
l'axe A5 qui est par exemple égal à 30° de part et d'autre de la
position alignée illustrée à la figure 2, le débattement
angulaire de l'arbre de transmission 26 autour de l'axe A4
étant déterminé par la venue en butée de l'extrémité
longitudinale avant 28 contre le bord circulaire qui l'entoure
l'extrémité arrière de l'alésage 44.The V-shaped profile of the
Du fait des dimensions des fentes 54 et 56, dont la
largeur transversale selon l'axe A5 est sensiblement égale au
diamètre externe de la tige d'articulation 48, il n'existe aucune
possibilité de rotation de l'arbre de transmission 26 autour de
son axe A2 par rapport à l'organe de sortie 16 et l'extrémité
arrière 30 de l'arbre de transmission 26 est ainsi orientée
angulairement de manière précise par rapport à l'organe de
sortie 16. Cette caractéristique d'indexation angulaire de la
sphère d'articulation 32 avec ses bras 34 permet, lors du
montage de l'agencement 10 sur un véhicule, et notamment
lors de l'introduction axiale en aveugle de l'extrémité arrière 30
dans l'organe rotatif d'entrée 24, d'orienter angulairement ces
deux éléments, la position angulaire d'origine de l'organe de
sortie 16 par rapport au stator 14 résultant de la conception du
verrou 12.Due to the dimensions of the
On décrira maintenant la variante de réalisation illustrée aux figures 4 à 7.We will now describe the variant embodiment illustrated in Figures 4 to 7.
Dans ce mode de réalisation, la sphère d'articulation
convexe 42 est guidée en rotation dans une portion de surface
sphérique complémentaire concave 62 formée dans l'alésage
44 de l'organe de sortie 16.In this embodiment, the sphere of articulation
convex 42 is guided in rotation in a surface portion
concave complementary spherical 62 formed in the

16 en une seule pièce illustré aux figures 1 et 2 et décrite
précédemment.A first
La seconde partie avant 16B est montée tournante
par rapport à la partie 16A, autour de l'axe A1, avec une
possibilité de débattement angulaire relatif limité. The second
A cet effet, le bord circulaire d'extrémité longitudinale
arrière 64 de la partie avant 16B comporte une patte 66
d'orientation axiale qui est reçue dans une rainure
périphérique en arc de cercle 68 formée dans le bord circulaire
périphérique 70 en vis-à-vis de la partie avant 16A.For this purpose, the circular edge of the longitudinal end
rear 64 of the
Les deux extrémités angulaires 72 de la rainure 68,
en coopération avec la patte 66, délimitent la course angulaire
relative des deux parties 16A et 16B.The two
La partie 16A comporte une fente 74 pour
l'introduction radiale de l'anneau élastique 20 qui assure la
retenue axiale mutuelle des deux parties 16A et 16B.
Afin d'assurer une orientation angulaire de l'arbre de
transmission 26 par rapport à l'organe de sortie 16 en deux
parties 16A et 16B, la tige d'articulation 48 constitue une
branche verticale d'orientation radiale d'un élément unique 76
en corde à piano pliée.In order to ensure an angular orientation of the
