On a illustré sur la figure 1 une poignée 10 destinée à être montée sur un panneau extérieur de carrosserie 12 d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile. La poignée 10 comporte pour l'essentiel un support de poignée 14, qui est destiné à être fixé du côté interne du panneau 12, et un levier de préhension 16 qui est destiné à être agencé du côté externe du panneau 12, tout en étant fixé sur le support 14.Illustrated in FIG. 1 is a handle 10 intended for be mounted on an exterior body panel 12 of a opening of motor vehicle. The handle 10 comprises for essentially a handle support 14, which is intended to be fixed on the internal side of the panel 12, and a gripping lever 16 which is intended to be arranged on the external side of the panel 12, while being fixed on the support 14.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation qui est illustré sur les figures, le levier de préhension 16 se présente sous la forme d'une barre qui s'étend selon une direction longitudinale, horizontale par rapport à une orientation conventionnelle du véhicule automobile, et il est articulé sur le support 14 par son extrémité avant 18, autour d'un axe A1 vertical (voir en particulier figure 6), c'est-à-dire sensiblement parallèle au plan du panneau de carrosserie 12 et perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale du levier 16.In the exemplary embodiment which is illustrated on the figures, the gripping lever 16 is in the form a bar which extends in a longitudinal direction, horizontal with respect to a conventional orientation of the motor vehicle, and it is articulated on the support 14 by its front end 18, around a vertical axis A1 (see at particular Figure 6), that is to say substantially parallel to the plane body panel 12 and perpendicular to the direction longitudinal of the lever 16.

Bien entendu, les notions d'horizontale et de verticale sont utilisées ici dans le but de simplifier la compréhension de la description et ne doivent pas être conçues comme des limitations de la portée de l'invention, notamment quant à l'orientation de la poignée.Of course, the concepts of horizontal and vertical are used here to simplify the understanding of description and should not be construed as limitations of the scope of the invention, in particular as to the orientation of the handle.

Pour son articulation sur le support 14, l'extrémité avant 18 du levier 16 comporte un élément de charnière 20 qui s'étend transversalement vers l'intérieur, au travers d'une ouverture avant 22 aménagée dans le panneau 12, et qui coopère avec un élément de charnière du support 14. A son extrémité arrière 24, le levier de préhension 16 comporte un élément de commande 26 qui est destiné à s'étendre transversalement vers l'intérieur au travers d'une ouverture arrière 28 aménagée dans le panneau 12, de manière à pouvoir commander une tringlerie associée à une serrure afin de provoquer l'ouverture de l'ouvrant lorsque l'utilisateur manipule le levier de préhension 16 en écartant celui-ci par rapport au plan du panneau 12.For its articulation on the support 14, the front end 18 of lever 16 has a hinge element 20 which extends transversely inward, through a front opening 22 arranged in panel 12, and which cooperates with a hinge element of the support 14. At its rear end 24, the gripping lever 16 has a control element 26 which is intended to extend transversely inward through an opening rear 28 arranged in the panel 12, so as to ability to order linkage associated with lock to open the door when the user manipulates the gripping lever 16 by pushing it aside relative to the plan of the panel 12.

Bien entendu, la course angulaire du levier de préhension 16 autour de l'axe A1 est limitée par des moyens non représentés.Of course, the angular travel of the lever gripping 16 around the axis A1 is limited by means not shown.

Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, le support 14 est pourvu de moyens qui permettent une fixation rapide et simple du support sur la face interne 34 du panneau 12.In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the support 14 is provided with means which allow fixing fast and simple support on the internal face 34 of the panel 12.

On peut voir sur la figure 1 que le support 14 comporte une surface d'appui avant 30 et une surface d'appui arrière 32 qui sont chacune destinées à venir en appui transversalement vers l'extérieur contre la face interne 34 du panneau de carrosserie. Au niveau de chacune de ces deux surfaces d'appui, le support 14 comporte des pattes d'accrochage 36 qui s'étendent transversalement vers l'extérieur et qui comportent chacune pour l'essentiel, comme on peut le voir sur les figures 5A et 5B, un pied de liaison 38 qui s'étend transversalement vers l'extérieur depuis la surface d'appui correspondante et qui est prolongé, a son extrémité libre, par une extrémité d'accrochage 40 qui, dans l'exemple proposé, présente sensiblement la forme d'un élément de plaque parallèle au plan du panneau 12.We can see in Figure 1 that the support 14 has a front bearing surface 30 and a rear bearing surface 32 which are each intended to come into transverse support outwards against the internal face 34 of the panel body. At each of these two surfaces support, the support 14 has lugs 36 which extend transversely outwards and which essentially each, as can be seen in FIGS. 5A and 5B, a connecting foot 38 which extends transversely outward from the bearing surface corresponding and which is extended at its free end by a hooking end 40 which, in the example proposed, has substantially the shape of a plate element parallel to the plane of the panel 12.

Dans l'exemple illustré, le support 14 comporte deux pattes d'accrochage 36 au niveau de sa surface d'appui avant 30 et deux autres pattes 36 au niveau de sa surface d'appui arrière 32.In the example illustrated, the support 14 comprises two hooking lugs 36 at its front bearing surface 30 and two other legs 36 at its bearing surface rear 32.

Pour assurer le montage du support 14, celui-ci est tout d'abord amené, par un premier mouvement d'approche, transversalement de l'intérieur vers l'extérieur en appui contre la face interne 34 du panneau 12, de telle sorte que les pattes 36 sont engagées au travers des ouvertures 22 et 28 correspondantes.To ensure the mounting of the support 14, it is all first brought, by a first movement of approach, transversely from the inside to the outside pressing against the internal face 34 of the panel 12, so that the tabs 36 are engaged through openings 22 and 28 corresponding.

Ensuite, lorsque le support 14 a atteint une position intermédiaire de montage dans laquelle ces deux faces d'appui 30, 32 sont en appui contre la face interne 34, le support 14 est alors déplacé longitudinalement vers l'avant par simple coulissement le long du panneau de carrosserie 12. Au cours de ce mouvement d'accrochage, les extrémités d'accrochage 40 de chacune des pattes 36 sont destinées à venir s'engager derrière une face externe 42 du panneau de carrosserie 12.Then, when the support 14 has reached a position mounting intermediate in which these two bearing faces 30, 32 are in abutment against the internal face 34, the support 14 is then moved longitudinally forward by simple sliding along the body panel 12. During of this latching movement, the latching ends 40 of each of the legs 36 are intended to come to engage behind an external face 42 of the body panel 12.

En effet, comme on peut le voir plus particulièrement sur les figures 2A et 2B, les ouvertures avant 22 et arrière 28 comportent des bords d'appui 44 qui sont agencés sur la trajectoire des pattes 36 lorsque le support 14 est déplacé longitudinalement vers l'avant depuis sa position intermédiaire de montage illustré à la figure 2A. En réalité, seul le pied de liaison 38 est destiné à venir en appui contre le bord d'appui 44 correspondant. En effet, ce dernier présente une dimension selon la direction transversale qui est sensiblement égale à l'épaisseur du panneau de carrosserie 12. De la sorte, lorsque le support 14 est en appui contre la face interne 32 du panneau 12, l'extrémité d'accrochage 40 en forme de plaque est agencée alors transversalement vers l'extérieur par rapport au panneau de carrosserie 12 si bien que, lorsque que l'extrémité d'accrochage 40 arrive au niveau de l'un des bords d'appui 44, elle ne peut interférer avec ce bord. Aussi, le mouvement d'accrochage du support 14 se poursuivant, l'extrémité d'accrochage 40 de chaque patte 36 vient s'engager derrière la face externe 42 du panneau. Au contraire, le pied de liaison 38 vient en appui contre le bord 44 correspondant, et il provoque alors l'arrêt du mouvement longitudinal vers l'avant du support 14.Indeed, as we can see more particularly in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the front 22 and rear 28 openings have bearing edges 44 which are arranged on the trajectory of the legs 36 when the support 14 is moved longitudinally forward from its intermediate position instructions shown in Figure 2A. In reality, only the foot of link 38 is intended to come into abutment against the bearing edge 44 correspondent. Indeed, the latter has a dimension in the transverse direction which is substantially equal to the thickness of the body panel 12. In this way, when the support 14 bears against the internal face 32 of the panel 12, the hooking end 40 in the form of a plate is then arranged transversely outward relative to to the body panel 12 so that when the hooking end 40 arrives at one of the edges support 44, it cannot interfere with this edge. Also, the attachment movement of the support 14 continuing, the attachment end 40 of each tab 36 engages behind the external face 42 of the panel. On the contrary, the foot link 38 comes to bear against the corresponding edge 44, and it then causes the longitudinal movement to stop the front of the support 14.

Ainsi, lorsque le support 14 a atteint sa position longitudinale la plus avancée, qui correspond à sa position finale, les pattes 36, par leurs extrémités d'accrochage 40, empêchent qu'il ne puisse être retiré transversalement vers l'intérieur par rapport au panneau de carrosserie 12.Thus, when the support 14 has reached its position most advanced longitudinal, which corresponds to its position final, the legs 36, by their hooking ends 40, prevent it from being removed transversely to the interior with respect to the body panel 12.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré, on peut voir par ailleurs que les deux bords d'appui 44 d'une même ouverture, par exemple l'ouverture avant 22, sont agencés sur une même ligne verticale perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale du mouvement du support 14 entre sa position intermédiaire et sa position finale. Bien entendu, de la même manière, les pattes 36 correspondantes sont elles aussi alignées selon la même direction.In the illustrated embodiment, we can see by elsewhere than the two bearing edges 44 of the same opening, for example the opening before 22, are arranged on the same vertical line perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the movement of the support 14 between its intermediate position and its final position. Of course, in the same way, the legs 36 corresponding are also aligned according to the same direction.

Les bords d'appui 44 sont inclinés à environ 45 degrés par rapport à la direction longitudinale d'accrochage du support 14. Toutefois, on voit que deux bords 44 de la même ouverture 22, 28 ne sont pas parallèles mais au contraire sensiblement symétriques par rapport à un plan longitudinal médian. Ils définissent ainsi un V qui, dans ce cas, est ouvert vers l'arrière.The support edges 44 are inclined at about 45 degrees relative to the longitudinal direction of attachment of the support 14. However, it can be seen that two edges 44 of the same opening 22, 28 are not parallel but on the contrary substantially symmetrical with respect to a longitudinal plane median. They thus define a V which, in this case, is open rearward.

De la sorte, lorsque les pieds de liaison 38 des deux pattes 36 viennent simultanément en appui chacun contre le bord 44 correspondant, ils assurent non seulement un positionnement longitudinal du support 14, mais également un positionnement selon la direction verticale perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale, c'est-à-dire selon les deux directions du plan du panneau 12.In this way, when the connecting feet 38 of the two legs 36 simultaneously bear each against the edge 44 corresponding, they not only ensure a longitudinal positioning of the support 14, but also a positioning in the vertical direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, i.e. in both directions panel plan 12.

Ainsi, l'extrémité avant du support se trouve parfaitement positionnée par rapport au panneau de carrosserie grâce à ses deux pattes d'accrochage 36. De même, l'ouverture arrière 28 comportant elle aussi deux bords d'appui 44 inclinés de manière à former un V, les deux pattes 36 portées par l'extrémité arrière du support 14 viennent elles aussi assurer un positionnement précis de cette partie du support 14.So the front end of the holder is perfectly positioned in relation to the panel body thanks to its two hooking lugs 36. From even, the rear opening 28 also having two edges support 44 inclined so as to form a V, the two legs 36 carried by the rear end of the support 14 come also ensure precise positioning of this part of the support 14.

Comme on peut le voir plus particulièrement sur les figures 5 et 6, les pieds de liaison 38 des pattes 36 présentent chacun une face d'appui 54 qui est orientée de manière complémentaire à l'orientation du bord d'appui 44 contre laquelle elle est destinée à venir en appui.As can be seen more particularly on the Figures 5 and 6, the connecting feet 38 of the legs 36 have each a support face 54 which is oriented so complementary to the orientation of the bearing edge 44 against which it is intended to support.

Par ailleurs, selon un autre aspect de l'invention, il est prévu des moyens qui permettent de bloquer automatiquement le support 14 lorsqu'il a atteint sa position finale, de manière à l'empêcher de reculer longitudinalement vers l'arrière au risque de dégager les pattes d'accrochage 36.Furthermore, according to another aspect of the invention, it is provided means that allow to automatically block the support 14 when it has reached its final position, so that prevent it from rolling backwards longitudinally at the risk to release the hooking lugs 36.

Pour ce faire, on peut voir que le support 14 comporte, à l'arrière de sa surface d'appui avant 30, et plus exactement en arrière de chacune des pattes 36 portées par cette dernière, deux bras élastiques 48 qui s'étendent sensiblement longitudinalement, qui sont liés au support 14 par leur extrémité avant, et dont l'extrémité arrière 50 s'étend transversalement vers l'extérieur par rapport au plan de la surface d'appui 30 lorsqu'ils sont à l'état libre tels qu'illustrés sur la figure 1.To do this, we can see that the support 14 includes, at the rear of its front bearing surface 30, and more exactly behind each of the legs 36 carried by this last, two elastic arms 48 which extend substantially longitudinally, which are linked to the support 14 by their front end, and the rear end 50 of which extends transversely outward from the plane of the bearing surface 30 when in the free state as illustrated in figure 1.

Les bras élastiques 48, qui sont réalisés venus de matière avec le support, sont susceptibles d'être sollicités transversalement vers l'intérieur de manière à ne plus dépasser transversalement vers l'extérieur par rapport au plan de cette surface. Cela est le cas lorsque l'on amène le support 14 en appui contre la face interne du panneau 12 comme cela est illustré à la figure 4A. The elastic arms 48, which are produced from material with the support, are likely to be requested transversely inward so that it no longer protrude transversely outward from the plane of this surface. This is the case when bringing the support 14 resting against the internal face of the panel 12 like this is illustrated in Figure 4A.

Toutefois, comme on l'a illustré sur la figure 4B, lorsque le support 14 atteint sa position finale, les bras élastiques 48 se trouvent en regard de l'ouverture avant 22 de sorte qu'ils peuvent reprendre leur position libre. Leur extrémité arrière 50 se retrouve alors longitudinalement juste en avant d'un bord arrière 52 de l'ouverture 22. De la sorte, s'étendant transversalement vers l'extérieur d'une distance sensiblement égale à l'épaisseur du panneau de carrosserie, les extrémités arrière 50 de chacun des bras 48 se retrouvent alors en appui selon la direction longitudinale, dans le plan du panneau de carrosserie 12, contre le bord arrière 52 de l'ouverture avant 22 qui forme une encoche de verrouillage, empêchant ainsi le recul du support 14.However, as illustrated in Figure 4B, when the support 14 reaches its final position, the elastic arms 48 are next to the front opening 22 so they can return to their free position. Their rear end 50 is then found longitudinally just in front of an edge back 52 of the opening 22. So extending transversely outward from a distance substantially equal to the thickness of the body panel, the ends rear 50 of each of the arms 48 then find themselves in support in the longitudinal direction, in the plane of the panel body 12, against the rear edge 52 of the front opening 22 which forms a locking notch, thereby preventing support recoil 14.

Dans l'exemple illustré, les bords d'appui 44 correspondants aux pattes avant 36 et les bords arrières 52 contre lesquels s'appuient les bras élastiques 48 font partie du contour de l'ouverture 22 au travers de laquelle s'étend l'élément de charnière 20 du levier de préhension 16. Toutefois, on pourrait bien évidemment prévoir que chacun de ses bords appartienne au contour d'une ouverture spécifique.In the example illustrated, the bearing edges 44 corresponding to the front legs 36 and the rear edges 52 against which the elastic arms 48 rest are part of the outline of the opening 22 through which extends the hinge element 20 of the gripping lever 16. However, one could obviously foresee that each of its edges belong to the outline of a specific opening.

Comme cela sera décrit en référence aux figures 6 à 12, la poignée selon l'invention comporte des moyens de verrouillage complémentaires, dont l'action s'ajoute à celle des bras élastiques 48 qui, dans ce cas, servent essentiellement à assurer un préverrouillage du support de poignée 14.As will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 to 12, the handle according to the invention comprises means for complementary locking, whose action is added to that of elastic arms 48 which, in this case, serve essentially to pre-lock the handle support 14.

A cet effet, la poignée comporte un corps de verrouillage 56 présentant une partie externe 58 et un talon de fixation 60 qui s'étend transversalement vers l'intérieur pour être reçu au travers de l'ouverture arrière 28 du panneau extérieur 12 de carrosserie de l'ouvrant et pour être guidé en coulissement selon la direction transversale dans une cavité complémentaire 62 aménagée dans le support de poignée 14. For this purpose, the handle comprises a body of lock 56 having an external part 58 and a heel of attachment 60 which extends transversely inward to be received through the rear opening 28 of the panel exterior 12 of bodywork of the opening and to be guided in sliding in the transverse direction in a cavity complementary 62 fitted in the handle support 14.

La partie externe 58 présente une face d'appui 63 tournée en regard de la face externe 42 du panneau 12.The external part 58 has a bearing face 63 turned opposite the external face 42 of the panel 12.

Lorsque le support 14 est en position finale de montage, le talon 60 du corps de verrouillage 56 est engagé transversalement vers l'intérieur dans la cavité 62 du support 14, depuis l'extérieur de l'ouvrant, de telle sorte que le corps de verrouillage 56 se trouve alors immobilisé par rapport au support 14 dans toutes directions sauf la direction transversale. Or, dans le même temps, on peut voir sur la figure 12 qu'une face latérale arrière 64 est alors en appui longitudinalement vers l'arrière contre un bord arrière 66 de l'ouverture arrière 28. Aussi, le corps de verrouillage 56 empêche toute retrait longitudinal vers l'arrière du support 14 par rapport au panneau extérieur 12, ce qui élimine tout risque de démontage du support 14 au cas où les bras élastiques 48 viendraient à se rompre.When the support 14 is in the final mounting position, the heel 60 of the locking body 56 is engaged transversely inward in the cavity 62 of the support 14, from the outside of the opening, so that the body lock 56 is then immobilized relative to the support 14 in all directions except direction transverse. At the same time, we can see on the Figure 12 that a rear side face 64 is then supported longitudinally backwards against a rear edge 66 of the rear opening 28. Also, the locking body 56 prevents any longitudinal withdrawal towards the rear of the support 14 relative to the outer panel 12, which eliminates any risk for removing the support 14 in the event that the elastic arms 48 would break.

Pour assurer la fixation du corps de verrouillage dans la cavité 62 du support 14, la poignée 10 comporte un étrier 68 qui est monté à coulissement longitudinal dans la partie arrière du support 14. L'étrier 68 comporte pour l'essentiel deux branches longitudinales 70 réunies à leur extrémité arrière par une base 72 de telle sorte que, dans un plan perpendiculaire à la direction transversale, l'étrier 68 présente sensiblement la forme d'un U ouvert vers l'avant.To secure the locking body in the cavity 62 of the support 14, the handle 10 comprises a stirrup 68 which is slidably mounted in the rear part of the support 14. The bracket 68 essentially comprises two longitudinal branches 70 joined at their rear end by a base 72 so that in a plane perpendicular to the transverse direction, the stirrup 68 has substantially the U-shaped open towards the front.

A leur extrémité avant, les branches 70 sont munies chacune d'un ergot 78, chaque ergot 78 s'étendant sensiblement en direction de la branche opposée. Comme cela sera vu par la suite, les ergots 78 sont destinés à être reçus dans des logements complémentaires 80 aménagés dans le talon 60.At their front end, the branches 70 are provided each of a lug 78, each lug 78 extending substantially in the direction of the opposite branch. Like this will be seen later, the lugs 78 are intended to be received in additional accommodation 80 fitted out in the heel 60.

L'étrier 68 est destiné à être engagé dans une glissière 74 du support 14 qui débouche longitudinalement à l'arrière. Le guidage précis de l'étrier 68 est assuré notamment par des rails 76 aménagés sur les faces externes des branches 70 du corps de verrouillage 56.The bracket 68 is intended to be engaged in a slide 74 of the support 14 which opens longitudinally at the rear. The precise guidance of the stirrup 68 is ensured in particular by rails 76 arranged on the external faces of the branches 70 of the locking body 56.

Avant le montage du support 14 sur l'ouvrant, l'étrier 68 est engagée longitudinalement d'arrière en avant dans la glissière 74 jusqu'à une position avancée de déblocage dans laquelle les branches 72 s'étendent de part et d'autre de la cavité 62, les ergots 78 étant agencés en avant de la cavité de manière que l'étrier 68 ne puisse empêcher l'introduction du talon 60 du corps de verrouillage 56 dans la cavité 62.Before mounting the support 14 on the opening, the bracket 68 is engaged longitudinally from back to front in the slide 74 to an advanced unlocking position in which branches 72 extend on either side of the cavity 62, the pins 78 being arranged in front of the cavity of so that stirrup 68 cannot prevent the introduction of the heel 60 of the locking body 56 in the cavity 62.

On notera sur les figures 6 et 7 que le support 14 comporte une lame élastique 82 qui retient l'étrier 68 longitudinalement dans sa position avancée de déblocage pour éviter que celui-ci ne puisse s'échapper de la glissière 74 sous l'effet de son seul poids.It will be noted in FIGS. 6 and 7 that the support 14 comprises an elastic blade 82 which retains the stirrup 68 longitudinally in its advanced release position for prevent it from escaping from the slide 74 under the effect of its weight alone.

Lorsque le talon 60 du corps de verrouillage 56 est engagé dans la cavité 62, on peut voir sur les figures 9 et 10 qu'il est reçu entre les deux branches 70 de l'étrier 68. Une fois le corps de verrouillage 56 en place, les logements 80 aménagés dans son talon 60 se trouvent longitudinalement en regard des ergots 78 de l'étrier 68.When the heel 60 of the locking body 56 is engaged in the cavity 62, we can see in Figures 9 and 10 that it is received between the two branches 70 of the stirrup 68. A once the locking body 56 is in place, the housings 80 arranged in its heel 60 are longitudinally in look of the lugs 78 of the stirrup 68.

Selon un aspect de l'invention, l'étrier 68 est pourvu de moyens de commande qui permettent de le faire reculer longitudinalement jusqu'à une position reculée de blocage dans laquelle les ergots 78 sont reçus dans les logements 80, ce qui assure le blocage transversal du corps de verrouillage 56 par rapport au support 14, et donc son immobilisation complète.According to one aspect of the invention, the stirrup 68 is provided with control means which allow it to be rolled back longitudinally to a retracted blocking position in which the pins 78 are received in the housings 80, which ensures the transverse blocking of the locking body 56 relative to the support 14, and therefore its immobilization complete.

A cet effet, il est prévu une tige filetée 84 d'axe longitudinal qui est vissée au travers de la base 72 de l'étrier. Son extrémité arrière, qui s'étend en arrière de la base 72, comporte une empreinte hexagonale axiale en creux 86 qui permet de la manoeuvrer à l'aide d'un outil de type "clé six pans". A son extrémité avant, la tige filetée 84 comporte une coupelle d'appui 88 qui est destinée à prendre appui axialement vers l'avant sur la surface latérale arrière 64 du talon 60 du corps de verrouillage 56. Éventuellement, l'extrémité avant de la tige 84 peut elle aussi être pourvue d'une empreinte en creux pour faciliter le montage de la tige 84 sur l'étrier 68, ce qui est effectué avant l'introduction de l'étrier 68 dans la glissière 74, et donc avant le montage du support 14 sur l'ouvrant.For this purpose, a threaded rod 84 with an axis is provided. longitudinal which is screwed through the base 72 of the stirrup. Its rear end, which extends behind the base 72, has a hollow axial hexagonal imprint 86 which allows you to operate it using a tool like "wrench six sides ". At its front end, the threaded rod 84 has a support cup 88 which is intended to take support axially forward on the rear side surface 64 of the heel 60 of the locking body 56. Optionally, the front end of the rod 84 can also be provided a hollow imprint to facilitate mounting of the rod 84 on stirrup 68, which is done before the introduction of the bracket 68 in the slide 74, and therefore before mounting the support 14 on the opening.

Comme on peut le voir sur les figures 9 et 10, on peut ainsi, en manoeuvrant la tige filetée 84 dans le sens convenable, faire reculer longitudinalement l'étrier 68 par rapport au corps de verrouillage 56, qui est fixe selon cette direction, jusqu'à amener les ergots 78 dans les logements 80.As can be seen in Figures 9 and 10, we can thus, by maneuvering the threaded rod 84 in the direction suitable, roll back the stirrup 68 longitudinally by relative to the locking body 56, which is fixed according to this direction, until bringing the lugs 78 into the housings 80.

Avantageusement, les ergots 78 et les logements 80 sont pourvus de pans inclinés complémentaires 90, 92 qui, lorsque l'étrier est amené vers sa position reculée de blocage, coopèrent de telle sorte qu'ils provoquent un déplacement du corps de verrouillage 56 transversalement vers l'intérieur, ce qui permet d'assurer un serrage de la face d'appui 63 du corps 56 contre la face externe 42 du panneau extérieur 12. Avantageusement, un joint d'étanchéité 94 sera agencé entre la face d'appui 63 et le panneau 12.Advantageously, the pins 78 and the housings 80 are provided with complementary inclined faces 90, 92 which, when the stirrup is brought to its retracted blocking position, cooperate in such a way that they cause displacement of the locking body 56 transversely inward, this which ensures a clamping of the bearing face 63 of the body 56 against the external face 42 of the external panel 12. Advantageously, a seal 94 will be arranged between the bearing face 63 and the panel 12.

La conception du blocage du corps de verrouillage 56 est particulièrement avantageuse en ce qu'elle permet un montage et démontage aisé du corps de verrouillage sur le support 14, mais dans le cas où ce dernier n'est pas accessible.The design of the blocking of the locking body 56 is particularly advantageous in that it allows a easy assembly and disassembly of the locking body on the support 14, but if the latter is not accessible.

En effet, le support de poignée 14 est généralement fixé dans un espace interne de l'ouvrant qui est délimité par le panneau extérieur 12, par un panneau intérieur parallèle au panneau extérieur, et par au moins un panneau de chant 96 qui s'étend transversalement pour relier les panneaux intérieur et extérieur 12. Le panneau intérieur est par exemple constitué par un garnissage de contre-porte. Plus particulièrement, comme cela est illustré sur les figures 6 à 8, le support 14 est généralement agencé à une extrémité arrière de l'ouvrant, à proximité d'un panneau de chant vertical 96.Indeed, the handle support 14 is generally fixed in an internal space of the opening which is delimited by the outer panel 12, by an inner panel parallel to the exterior panel, and by at least one edge panel 96 which extends transversely to connect the interior panels and exterior 12. The interior panel is for example constituted by a door lining. More specifically, as illustrated in FIGS. 6 to 8, the support 14 is generally arranged at a rear end of the opening, with near a vertical edge panel 96.

Grâce à l'invention, il suffit donc de prévoir dans le panneau de chant 96, en regard de l'extrémité arrière de la tige filetée 84, un perçage 98 pour le passage d'un outil complémentaire de l'empreinte 86. Ainsi, le blocage ou le déblocage du corps de verrouillage 56 peut se faire sans avoir accès à l'espace interne du panneau, juste en engageant l'outil au travers du perçage 98 pour manoeuvrer la tige filetée 84.Thanks to the invention, it is therefore sufficient to provide in the edge panel 96, facing the rear end of the threaded rod 84, a hole 98 for the passage of a tool complementary to fingerprint 86. Thus, blocking or unlocking of the locking body 56 can be done without having access to the internal space of the panel, just by engaging the tool through the hole 98 to operate the threaded rod 84.

Notamment, pour des réparations qui ne nécessitent que la dépose des parties externes de la poignée, par exemple pour repeindre le panneau de carrosserie, il n'y aura pas besoin de déposer le panneau intérieur de l'ouvrant, ceci tout en évitant d'agencer les moyens de fixation à l'extérieur de l'ouvrant. Ce démontage peut se faire "en aveugle", sans qu'il n'y ait non plus de risque de perdre la tige filetée 84 qui, par conception ne peut être dévissée hors de l'étrier 68 du fait de la présence de l'excroissance radiale formée par la coupelle d'appui 88.In particular, for repairs that do not require that removing the external parts of the handle, for example to repaint the body panel, there will be no need to remove the inner panel of the sash, this all avoiding arranging the fixing means outside of opening it. This disassembly can be done "blind", without it there is also no risk of losing the threaded rod 84 which, by design cannot be unscrewed from the bracket 68 due to the presence of the radial protrusion formed by the cup support 88.

On a vu dans ce qui précède que le corps de verrouillage participe à la fixation du support 14 de la poignée 10. Toutefois, on peut aussi prévoir qu'il participe également au maintien et/ou au guidage du levier de préhension 24.We have seen in the above that the body of locking participates in the fixing of the support 14 of the handle 10. However, it can also be expected that he will also participate maintaining and / or guiding the gripping lever 24.

De plus, le corps de verrouillage 56 peut aussi former un carter destiné à recevoir un verrou de condamnation de la serrure de l'ouvrant.In addition, the locking body 56 can also form a housing intended to receive a lock for locking the opening lock.
