The second axis has a contact position and elastic elements (12) to press a thrust member (11) against it.

Description

La présente invention concerne une charnière de sécurité, notamment pour accoudoir de véhicule automobile, et plus particulièrement une telle charnière comprenant un premier axe de rotation sur lequel une pièce mobile est montée sur une pièce fixe pour pivoter par rapport à cette dernière, et une butée pour limiter ce mouvement de pivotement.The present invention relates to a safety hinge, especially for an armrest of a motor vehicle, and more particularly such a hinge comprising a first axis of rotation on which a moving part is mounted on a fixed part to pivot relative to the latter, and a stopper to limit this pivoting movement.

On connaít des accoudoirs de véhicules automobiles disposés sur la console entre les deux places avant. Ces accoudoirs sont montés pivotant autour de leur bord arrière de manière à donner accès à un coffre intérieur à la console. Une butée permet de limiter le mouvement de rotation à une position où l'accoudoir dépasse légèrement la verticale.We know armrests of motor vehicles arranged on the console between the two front seats. These armrests are mounted pivoting around their rear edge so as to give access to an interior safe at the console. A stop allows to limit the rotational movement to a position where the armrest protrudes slightly vertical.

Le problème est que si l'on essaye de forcer l'accoudoir au-delà de sa position de butée, on risque de casser la charnière. Et plus un accoudoir de console est long, plus l'effort maximal admissible en bout d'accoudoir diminue.The problem is that if you try to force the armrest beyond from its stop position, there is a risk of breaking the hinge. And the longer a console armrest, the greater the maximum effort admissible at the end of the armrest decreases.

La présente invention vise à pallier cet inconvénient.The present invention aims to overcome this drawback.

D'une manière générale, l'invention vise à fournir une charnière munie d'une butée, et qui puisse subir sans dommage un effort inhabituel tendant à déplacer les pièces en rotation relative au-delà de la position de butée.In general, the invention aims to provide a hinge provided with a stop, and which can undergo without damage a unusual effort to move the relative rotating parts beyond from the stop position.

Plus particulièrement, l'invention à pour but de fournir un accoudoir de console de véhicule automobile qui, lorsqu'il est soumis en position de butée ouverte à un effort vers l'arrière dépassant le seuil admissible, poursuit sa course au-delà de cette position de butée jusqu'à venir reposer sur le siège arrière ou sur le sol.More particularly, the invention aims to provide a armrest of a motor vehicle console which, when subjected in the stop position open to a rearward force exceeding the admissible threshold, continues its course beyond this position of stop until it comes to rest on the rear seat or on the ground.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet une charnière de sécurité, notamment pour accoudoir de véhicule automobile, comprenant un premier axe de rotation sur lequel une pièce mobile est montée sur une pièce fixe pour pivoter par rapport à cette dernière, et une butée pour limiter le mouvement de pivotement relatif desdites pièces, caractérisée par le fait qu'elle comprend une pièce intermédiaire entre lesdites pièces fixe et mobile, ladite pièce intermédiaire étant montée pivotante sur une desdites pièces fixe et mobile autour dudit premier axe et comportant au moins un palier pour recevoir un deuxième axe de rotation autour duquel l'autre desdites pièces fixe et mobile est montée pivotante sur ladite pièce intermédiaire, ledit deuxième axe de rotation comportant un emplacement de contact et des moyens élastiques étant agencés pour presser un organe de poussée contre ledit emplacement de contact.To this end, the invention relates to a safety hinge, in particular for an armrest of a motor vehicle, comprising a first axis of rotation on which a moving part is mounted on a fixed part to pivot relative to the latter, and a stop to limit the relative pivoting movement of said parts, characterized by the fact that it comprises an intermediate piece between said fixed and movable parts, said intermediate part being pivotally mounted on one of said fixed and movable parts around said first axis and comprising at least one bearing for receiving a second axis of rotation about which the other of said parts fixes and mobile is pivotally mounted on said intermediate piece, said second axis of rotation comprising a contact location and elastic means being arranged to press a member thrust against said contact location.

Par emplacement de contact, on entend une surface, plane ou non, sur laquelle l'organe de poussée peut venir en contact sous l'action des moyens élastiques pour exercer sur le deuxième axe de rotation un effort s'opposant à sa rotation.By contact location is meant a surface, flat or no, on which the thrust member can come into contact under the action of elastic means to exert on the second axis of rotation an effort opposing its rotation.

Bien entendu, il n'est question ci-dessus de pièce fixe et de pièce mobile que pour fixer les idées. En fait, seul importe le mouvement relatif entre les deux pièces.Of course, there is no question above of fixed part and moving part only to fix ideas. In fact, only the relative movement between the two parts.

Ainsi, les pièces fixe et mobile se comportent comme dans l'art antérieur jusqu'à la position de butée, la pièce intermédiaire restant solidaire de celle des pièces fixe et mobile à laquelle elle est reliée par le deuxième axe de rotation. En effet, ce dernier ne fonctionne pas pour des efforts appliqués normaux.Thus, the fixed and mobile parts behave as in art anterior to the stop position, the intermediate piece remaining integral with that of the fixed and mobile parts to which it is connected by the second axis of rotation. Indeed, the latter does not work not for normal applied forces.

Ce n'est que lorsque les pièces sont en butée et que l'on exerce un effort croissant sur la pièce mobile, que le bord de l'emplacement de contact repousse l'organe de poussée contre l'action des moyens élastiques. Le deuxième axe de rotation peut alors entrer en action et la pièce mobile peut poursuivre son mouvement au-delà de la position de butée. Aucun risque de bris de la charnière n'est donc à craindre. Un mouvement en sens contraire ramène les différentes pièces dans leurs positions d'origine.It is only when the parts are in abutment and that one exerts an increasing force on the moving part, that the edge of the contact location pushes the thrust member against the action of elastic means. The second axis of rotation can then go into action and the moving part can continue its movement beyond the stop position. No risk of breakage the hinge is therefore not to be feared. A movement in the opposite direction brings the different parts back to their original positions.

Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, ledit emplacement de contact est constitué par un méplat dudit deuxième axe de rotation.In a particular embodiment, said location of contact is constituted by a flat of said second axis of rotation.

L'organe de poussée en appui sur ce méplat s'oppose à la rotation de l'axe. Lorsqu'un effort suffisamment important est exercé sur la pièce mobile, le bord du méplat repousse l'organe de poussée et le deuxième axe est libéré.The thrust member resting on this flat is opposed to the axis rotation. When enough effort is exerted on the moving part, the edge of the flat part pushes the thrust member and the second axis is released.

Egalement dans un mode de réalisation particulier, le premier axe de rotation est disposé entre la pièce fixe et la pièce intermédiaire, et le deuxième axe de rotation est disposé entre la pièce intermédiaire et la pièce mobile.Also in a particular embodiment, the first axis of rotation is arranged between the fixed part and the part intermediate, and the second axis of rotation is arranged between the intermediate piece and the moving piece.

Ainsi, la pièce intermédiaire est normalement solidaire de la pièce fixe. Toutefois, la disposition contraire pourrait être envisagée.Thus, the intermediate piece is normally integral with the fixed part. However, the opposite provision could be considered.

Egalement dans un mode de réalisation particulier, les moyens élastiques et l'organe de poussée sont réalisés sous la forme d'une nervure en U sensiblement parallèle audit deuxième axe de rotation, l'âme du U formant l'organe de poussée et les deux ailes du U formant les moyens élastiques en travaillant en flexion.Also in a particular embodiment, the means elastic and the pushing member are made in the form of a U-shaped rib substantially parallel to said second axis of rotation, the soul of the U forming the thrust member and the two wings of the U forming the elastic means by working in flexion.

On décrira maintenant, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation particulier de l'invention, en référence aux dessins schématiques annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue partielle en perspective d'un accoudoir muni d'une charnière selon l'invention ; et
  • la figure 2 est une vue en perspective à plus grande échelle de la pièce intermédiaire.
A particular embodiment of the invention will now be described, by way of nonlimiting example, with reference to the appended schematic drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a partial perspective view of an armrest provided with a hinge according to the invention; and
  • Figure 2 is a perspective view on a larger scale of the intermediate piece.

On voit à la figure 1 une console centrale 1 de véhicule automobile formant un coffre 2 fermé par un accoudoir 3. L'accoudoir 3 est articulé sur la console au niveau de son bord arrière autour d'une charnière 4.We see in Figure 1 a center console 1 of the vehicle automobile forming a trunk 2 closed by an armrest 3. The armrest 3 is articulated on the console at its rear edge around a hinge 4.

La charnière 4 comprend une pièce intermédiaire 5 montée pivotante sur la console 1 à l'aide d'une premier axe de rotation 6. La rotation de la pièce intermédiaire 5 par rapport à la console 1 est limitée par une butée (non représentée) de cette pièce qui vient en contact avec l'arrière de la console lorsque l'accoudoir 3 est sensiblement dans la position représentée à la figure 1 où il dépasse légèrement sa position verticale vers l'arrière (flèche AR).The hinge 4 comprises an intermediate part 5 mounted pivoting on the console 1 using a first axis of rotation 6. The rotation of the intermediate piece 5 relative to the console 1 is limited by a stop (not shown) of this part which comes in contact with the rear of the console when the armrest 3 is substantially in the position shown in Figure 1 where it exceeds slightly its vertical position towards the rear (arrow AR).

La pièce intermédiaire 5 comporte par ailleurs deux paliers 7 supportant un deuxième axe de rotation 8 solidaire de l'accoudoir 3. L'axe 8 forme un méplat 9 sensiblement parallèle à son axe.The intermediate part 5 also comprises two bearings 7 supporting a second axis of rotation 8 integral with the armrest 3. The axis 8 forms a flat 9 substantially parallel to its axis.

Par ailleurs, la pièce intermédiaire 5 forme, à côté des paliers 7, deux nervures 10 parallèles à l'axe de ces paliers. Ces nervures sont creuses et possèdent une section transversale en U avec une âme 11 dirigée vers l'axe du palier et deux ailes 12 dont l'extrémité opposée à l'âme est reliée au corps de la pièce intermédiaire. Les ailes 12 sont élastiques de manière à se déformer en flexion pour permettre à l'âme 11 de la nervure de s'éloigner de l'axe.Furthermore, the intermediate part 5 forms, next to the bearings 7, two ribs 10 parallel to the axis of these bearings. These ribs are hollow and have a U-shaped cross section with a core 11 directed towards the axis of the bearing and two wings 12 whose end opposite the core is connected to the body of the intermediate piece. The wings 12 are elastic so as to deform in flexion for allow the core 11 of the rib to move away from the axis.

En fonctionnement normal, les âmes 11 des nervures 10 sont maintenues en contact par la rigidité des ailes 12 avec le méplat 9 du deuxième axe de rotation 8. L'accoudoir 3 et la pièce intermédiaire 4 sont donc solidaires.In normal operation, the webs 11 of the ribs 10 are kept in contact by the rigidity of the wings 12 with the flat 9 of the second axis of rotation 8. The armrest 3 and the intermediate piece 4 are therefore united.

Si, alors que la pièce intermédiaire 5 est en butée sur la console 1, un effort dépassant un seuil admissible est exercé vers l'arrière sur l'accoudoir 3, une arête du méplat 9 de l'axe de rotation 8 repousse l'âme 11 de la nervure 10 contre l'action élastique des ailes 12, ce qui a pour effet de libérer la rotation de l'accoudoir 3 par rapport à la pièce intermédiaire 5, et donc par rapport à la console 1. Cette rotation peut se poursuivre jusqu'à ce que l'accoudoir vienne reposer sur la banquette arrière du véhicule ou sur le tapis de sol.If, while the intermediate part 5 is in abutment on the console 1, a force exceeding an admissible threshold is exerted towards the rear on the armrest 3, an edge of the flat 9 of the axis of rotation 8 repels the core 11 of the rib 10 against the elastic action of the wings 12, which has the effect of releasing the rotation of the armrest 3 by relative to the intermediate part 5, and therefore relative to the console 1. This rotation can continue until the armrest comes rest on the rear seat of the vehicle or on the floor mat.

Les différents éléments reprennent leur place d'origine simplement en rabattant l'accoudoir vers l'avant.The different elements return to their original place simply by folding the armrest forward.

On a décrit le deuxième axe de rotation 8 comme comportant un méplat 9. D'autres formes peuvent être adoptées sous réserve qu'elles permettent d'assurer un blocage de l'accoudoir par rapport à la pièce intermédiaire en l'absence d'effort anormal exercé sur l'accoudoir.The second axis of rotation 8 has been described as comprising a flat 9. Other shapes may be adopted subject to that they ensure a blocking of the armrest relative to the intermediate piece in the absence of abnormal force exerted on the armrest.
