Abstract

The handle (10) comprises a support (12), placed on the inner side of door, and a control plate (14), placed on outer side of door. The plate does not act directly upon an idler arm (22), but acts upon it through a disengaging mechanism. This disengaging mechanism comprises a transversal plate (49) having two radial arms (51,52). Safe opening of door is confirmed by transmitting small shock to user from idler arm, when spring (56) goes back to its original state by releasing accumulated mechanical energy.

Description

L'invention concerne une poignée de véhicule automobile.The invention relates to a vehicle handle automobile.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement une poignée de commande d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile, du type dans lequel la poignée comporte une palette de commande qui est destinée à être déplacée par un utilisateur depuis une position de repos jusqu'à une position d'ouverture, le déplacement de la palette étant transmis à une serrure par l'intermédiaire d'une tringlerie comportant un organe de renvoi, notamment un levier de renvoi articulé, qui se déplace avec la palette depuis une position de repos jusqu'à une position d'ouverture.The invention relates more particularly to a handle for controlling a motor vehicle opening, of the type in which the handle has a control palette which is intended to be moved by a user from a rest position to an open position, the movement of the pallet being transmitted to a lock by through a linkage comprising a return member, in particular an articulated return lever, which moves with the pallet from a rest position to a position opening hours.

L'invention concerne plus particulièrement une poignée pour un ouvrant d'un véhicule équipé d'un système de sécurité qui assure la condamnation de l'ouvrant et dont le verrouillage et le déverrouillage sont subordonnés à une interrogation à distance, par une centrale antivol du véhicule, d'un badge de type radiofréquence porté par l'utilisateur. L'invention trouve plus particulièrement à s'appliquer à un système dit "mains libres".The invention relates more particularly to a handle for a window of a vehicle fitted with a security system which secures the opening and whose locking and unlocking are subject to interrogation at distance, by an anti-theft control unit from the vehicle, of a radiofrequency type worn by the user. The invention finds more particularly to apply to a system called "hands free ".

Dans un tel système, avant de déclencher le déverrouillage, la centrale antivol émet un signal d'interrogation et attend en retour un signal de réponse codé émis par le badge. La centrale antivol compare le signal de réponse reçu à un signal prédéterminé et, en cas de correspondance des signaux, elle déclenche à ce moment-là le déverrouillage de la serrure si bien que, en amenant la palette de la poignée vers sa position d'ouverture, l'utilisateur, dûment autorisé, peut alors ouvrir l'ouvrant.In such a system, before triggering the unlocking, the anti-theft control unit emits an interrogation signal and waits in return for a coded response signal from the badge. The anti-theft control unit compares the response signal received with a predetermined signal and, in the event of a match signals it then triggers the unlocking of the lock so well that by bringing the handle palette towards its open position, the user, duly authorized, can then open the door.

Un tel système de sécurité, qui permet de s'affranchir de l'utilisation d'une clé ou d'une télécommande, est souvent dénommé "système à accès main libre". Such a security system, which overcomes using a key or remote control is often called "hands-free access system".

Dans une telle application, la procédure d'échange de données entre la centrale antivol et le badge d'identification, l'étape de reconnaissance du signal de réponse, puis l'opération effective de déverrouillage de la serrure nécessitent un certain temps.In such an application, the procedure for exchanging data between the anti-theft control unit and the identification badge, the response signal recognition step, then the actual operation of unlocking the lock requires some time.

Or, pour un grand confort d'utilisation d'un tel système de sécurité, il est important que l'utilisateur autorisé puisse ouvrir l'ouvrant le plus rapidement possible après qu'il a amené la palette de la poignée vers sa position d'ouverture.However, for great comfort in using such a system security it is important that the authorized user can open the door as quickly as possible after it has brought the handle pallet to its open position.

Aussi, dans ce but, il a été proposé que la procédure d'identification puisse être déclenchée le plus tôt possible à partir du moment où, en approchant la main de la palette ou en déplaçant la palette, l'utilisateur manifeste sa volonté d'ouvrir l'ouvrant.Also, for this purpose, it has been proposed that the procedure identification can be triggered as soon as possible at from the moment when, approaching the hand of the pallet or moving the pallet, the user manifests his desire to open opening it.

Une telle solution s'avère insuffisante car la durée globale de la procédure d'identification dépend d'autres étapes consécutives à son déclenchementSuch a solution turns out to be insufficient because the duration overall identification procedure depends on other steps consecutive to its triggering

L'invention a donc pour objet de proposer une nouvelle conception d'une poignée qui permette à l'utilisateur d'obtenir rapidement l'ouverture de l'ouvrant après son action sur la palette sans qu'il ait besoin d'agir deux fois sur la palette, le maintien de son effort sur cette dernière pour qu'elle reste en position d'ouverture étant suffisant pour obtenir le déverrouillage de la serrure à l'issue de la procédure d'identification., cette nouvelle conception ne devant en aucun cas limiter la course de la palette vers sa position d'ouverture, ni procurer de sensations particulières à l'utilisateur autres que celles qu'il ressent lors de la manipulation de la palette d'une poignée selon l'état de la technique, et cette conception devant permettre son adaptation sur une poignée classique sans entraíner aucune modification de la serrure avec ses moyens de verrouillage et de sa tringlerie de commande. The object of the invention is therefore to propose a new design of a handle that allows the user to obtain quickly opening the opening after its action on the pallet without having to act twice on the pallet, the maintaining its effort on the latter so that it remains in open position being sufficient to obtain the unlocking the lock at the end of the procedure identification., this new design should not be in this case limit the travel of the pallet towards its open position, nor provide particular sensations to the user other than those he feels when handling the pallet of a handle according to the state of the art, and this design to allow its adaptation on a conventional handle without causing any modification to the lock with its locking means and its control linkage.

Dans ce but, l'invention propose une poignée de commande d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile qui est équipé d'un système de sécurité qui assure la condamnation de l'ouvrant dont le verrouillage et le déverrouillage sont subordonnés à une interrogation à distance, par une centrale antivol du véhicule, d'un identifiant, par exemple d'un badge de type radiofréquence, porté par l'utilisateur, et du type dans lequel, avant de déclencher le déverrouillage, la centrale antivol émet un signal d'interrogation et attend en retour un signal de réponse émis par l'identifiant qu'elle compare à un signal prédéterminé et, en cas de correspondance de ces signaux, déclenche à ce moment-là le déverrouillage, la poignée comportant une palette de commande qui est destinée à être déplacée par l'utilisateur depuis une position de repos jusqu'à une position d'ouverture, et un organe de renvoi qui se déplace normalement avec la palette depuis une position de repos jusqu'à une position d'ouverture et qui est relié à une tringlerie de commande de la serrure, caractérisée en ce que l'organe de renvoi est relié à la palette par l'intermédiaire d'un mécanisme débrayable dont l'embrayage est commandé par la centrale d'antivol lorsqu'elle détecte ladite correspondance des signaux et qui, dans son état débrayé, accumule au moins une partie de l'énergie mécanique d'ouverture appliquée à la palette par l'utilisateur en vue de la restituer ensuite à l'organe de renvoi lors de l'embrayage.To this end, the invention provides a handful of control of a motor vehicle opening which is equipped a security system which ensures the conviction of the opening whose locking and unlocking are subject to remote interrogation by a central anti-theft device, an identifier, for example a badge of the radiofrequency type, worn by the user, and of the type in which, before triggering the unlocking, the control unit anti-theft device emits a interrogation signal and waits in return for a response signal emitted by the identifier which it compares to a predetermined signal and, if these signals, triggers the unlocking, the handle with a control paddle which is intended to be moved by the user from a rest position to an open position, and a return member which normally moves with the pallet from a position of rest to an open position and which is connected to a lock control linkage, characterized in that the return member is connected to the pallet by means of a disengageable mechanism whose clutch is controlled by the anti-theft system when it detects said correspondence of signals and which, in its disengaged state, accumulates at least one part of the mechanical opening energy applied to the pallet by the user in order to then return it to the organ return when clutching.

On a représenté à la figure 1 une poignée 10 selon l'état de la technique pour un ouvrant de véhicule automobile qui comporte pour l'essentiel un support de poignée 12, destiné à être agencé du côté intérieur d'un panneau de carrosserie de l'ouvrant, et une palette de commande 14 qui est destinée à être agencée à l'extérieur du panneau de carrosserie pour pouvoir être amenée par un utilisateur d'une position de repos, illustrée à la figure 1, à une position d'ouverture, illustrée à la figure 2.FIG. 1 shows a handle 10 according to the state of the art for a motor vehicle opening which essentially comprises a handle support 12, intended to be arranged on the interior side of a panel opening body, and a control paddle 14 which is intended to be arranged outside the panel bodywork to be able to be brought by a user of a rest position, illustrated in Figure 1, at a position opening, illustrated in Figure 2.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré, la palette de commande est réalisée sous la forme d'une barre de commande 14 qui s'étend selon une direction longitudinale et qui est articulée par son extrémité avant 16 sur le support 12.In the illustrated embodiment, the palette of command is carried out in the form of a bar control 14 which extends in a longitudinal direction and which is articulated by its front end 16 on the support 12.

Pour faciliter la compréhension du texte, on définira par convention les notions d"'horizontale" et de "verticale" telles qu'elles apparaissent sur les figures 1 et 2, la direction longitudinale de la palette de commande 14 correspondant donc à la direction horizontale et la direction verticale étant représentée par l'axe A1 de pivotement de la palette de commande 14 par rapport au support 12, cet axe A1 étant généralement parallèle au panneau de carrosserie de l'ouvrant.To facilitate the understanding of the text, we will define by convention the notions of "horizontal" and "vertical" as that they appear in Figures 1 and 2, the direction longitudinal of the corresponding control paddle 14 so with the horizontal direction and the vertical direction being represented by the pivot axis A1 of the pallet control 14 relative to the support 12, this axis A1 being generally parallel to the body panel of opening it.

Ainsi, comme on peut le voir notamment sur la figure 2, lorsque la palette de commande 14 est amenée vers sa position d'ouverture, son extrémité longitudinale arrière 18 se décale transversalement vers l'extérieur par rapport au support 12 qui reste fixe.Thus, as can be seen in particular in FIG. 2, when the control paddle 14 is brought to its open position, its rear longitudinal end 18 is shifts transversely outward relative to the support 12 which remains fixed.

L'extrémité arrière 18 de la palette de commande 14 entraíne ici directement, par l'intermédiaire d'un pion 20, un renvoi articulé 22 qui fait partie d'une tringlerie par laquelle la palette de commande 14 peut agir sur une serrure qui assure le maintien de l'ouvrant en position fermée. Le renvoi articulé 22 est articulé sur le support 12 autour d'un axe A2 longitudinal. Ainsi, lorsque la palette de commande 14 est amenée de sa position de repos à sa position d'ouverture, le renvoi articulé 22 pivote lui aussi, autour de l'axe A2, d'une position de repos illustrée à la figure 1 jusqu'à une position d'ouverture illustrée à la figure 2. Le reste de la tringlerie qui permet la commande de la serrure de l'ouvrant n'est pas illustré sur les figures 1 et 2.The rear end 18 of the control paddle 14 here leads directly, via a pawn 20, a articulated return 22 which is part of a linkage by which the control paddle 14 can act on a lock which ensures maintaining the opening in the closed position. The articulated reference 22 is articulated on the support 12 around an axis A2 longitudinal. So when the control paddle 14 is brought from its rest position to its open position, the articulated return 22 also pivots, around the axis A2, by a rest position illustrated in Figure 1 to a position shown in Figure 2. The rest of the linkage that allows control of the door lock is not illustrated in Figures 1 and 2.

Le renvoi articulé 22 est rappelé élastiquement par un ressort à action angulaire 24 vers sa position de repos. Avantageusement, ce ressort 24 est dimensionné de manière que, en revenant vers sa position de repos, le renvoi articulé 22 ramène automatiquement la palette de commande 14 vers sa position de repos, par l'intermédiaire du pion 20, dès que l'utilisateur relâche la palette de commande 14.The articulated return 22 is resiliently recalled by a angular action spring 24 towards its rest position. Advantageously, this spring 24 is dimensioned so that, returning to its rest position, the articulated return 22 automatically brings back the control palette 14 to its rest position, via pin 20, as soon as the user releases the control paddle 14.

La poignée 10 comporte par ailleurs un interrupteur (non représenté en détails) qui est par exemple agencé à l'intérieur d'un boítier 26 faisant partie du support 12 de la poignée et qui est destiné à être actionné entre un état ouvert et un état fermé par un levier 28.The handle 10 also includes a switch (not shown in detail) which is for example arranged at the interior of a housing 26 forming part of the support 12 of the handle and which is intended to be operated between an open state and a state closed by a lever 28.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les figures 1 et 2, le levier 28 est un levier qui est monté pivotant sur le support 12 autour de l'axe A2 de rotation du renvoi articulé 22, dans le prolongement longitudinal et en avant de celui-ci.In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the lever 28 is a lever which is pivotally mounted on the support 12 around the axis A2 of rotation of the articulated return 22, in the longitudinal extension and in front of it.

Le levier 28 est ainsi susceptible de pivoter, sous l'action d'un ergot 42 appartenant à un bras de commande du levier articulé 22, d'une position inactive, illustrée à la figure 1, à une position active, illustrée à la figure 2, et il est sollicité vers cette dernière position par un ressort hélicoïdal à action angulaire 30.The lever 28 is thus capable of pivoting, under the action of a lug 42 belonging to a control arm of the articulated lever 22, from an inactive position, illustrated in FIG. 1, in an active position, illustrated in Figure 2, and it is stressed towards this last position by a helical spring with action angular 30.

Pour connaítre le fonctionnement détaillé de la poignée selon l'état de la technique illustré aux figures 1 et 2 on pourra avantageusement se reporter au contenu de la demande de brevet français numéro 99.01396 déposée le 5 février 1999.To know the detailed operation of the handle according to the state of the art illustrated in Figures 1 and 2 we can advantageously refer to the content of the request for French patent number 99.01396 filed February 5, 1999.

Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, la palette 14 n'agit pas directement sur le levier de renvoi 22, mais elle agit sur ce dernier par l'intermédiaire de moyens constituant un mécanisme débrayable. In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the pallet 14 does not act directly on the return lever 22, but it acts on the latter by means constituting a disengageable mechanism.

Plus précisément, la palette 14 agit sur une plaque transversale articulée 49 qui comporte deux bras radiaux inférieur 50 et supérieur 52 qui sont coplanaires en s'étendant dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe horizontal d'articulation A2 de la palette sur le support fixe 12.More precisely, the pallet 14 acts on a plate articulated transverse 49 which has two radial arms lower 50 and upper 52 which are coplanar in extent in a plane perpendicular to the horizontal axis of articulation A2 of the pallet on the fixed support 12.

Du fait de la présence du ressort 24, la palette 14 et la plaque 49 se déplacent ensemble de manière univoque, c'est-à-dire que, du point de vue fonctionnel, la plaque 49 peut être considérée comme appartenant à la palette 14 en vue d'agir sur le levier articulé de renvoi 22.Due to the presence of the spring 24, the pallet 14 and the plate 49 move together unequivocally, i.e. that, from a functional point of view, the plate 49 can be considered to belong to palette 14 in order to act on the articulated return lever 22.

Le bras inférieur 50 est un bras d'actionnement sur lequel agit le pion 20, tandis que le bras supérieur 52 est un bras de transmission de mouvement et qui est relié au levier de renvoi articulé 22 par l'intermédiaire d'un ressort de traction 56 qui est un ressort d'accumulation d'énergie aux sens de l'invention.The lower arm 50 is an actuation arm on which acts the pin 20, while the upper arm 52 is a motion transmission arm and which is connected to the lever articulated return 22 by means of a tension spring 56 which is an energy storage spring in the sense of the invention.

Le levier de renvoi articulé 22 comporte une branche sensiblement horizontale 58 qui s'étend depuis l'axe d'articulation, réalisée ici sous la forme d'une tige horizontale d'articulation portée par le support fixe 12, commun à la palette 14 et au levier de renvoi 22 vers l'extérieur de l'ouvrant.The articulated return lever 22 has a branch substantially horizontal 58 which extends from the axis articulation, made here in the form of a horizontal rod articulation carried by the fixed support 12, common to the pallet 14 and to the return lever 22 to the outside of opening it.

La branche horizontale 58 se prolonge verticalement vers le bas par une branche verticale 60 à l'extrémité inférieure 62 de laquelle on a représenté l'accrochage de l'extrémité d'un câble 64 de renvoi de mouvement appartenant à la tringlerie de renvoi de mouvement entre la palette 14 et la serrure (non représentée)The horizontal branch 58 extends vertically down by a vertical branch 60 at the end lower 62 from which the hooking of the end of a movement deflection cable 64 belonging to the movement return linkage between the pallet 14 and the lock (not shown)

L'extrémité supérieure 55 du ressort 56 est accrochée à l'extrémité libre du bras transversal supérieur 52 de la plaque 49 associée à la palette 14, tandis que son extrémité inférieure 57 est accrochée au niveau du coude de raccordement 61 entre les branches horizontale 58 et verticale 60 du levier articulés de renvoi 22.The upper end 55 of the spring 56 is hooked to the free end of the upper transverse arm 52 of the plate 49 associated with the pallet 14, while its lower end 57 is hooked at the connection elbow 61 between the horizontal 58 and vertical 60 arms of the lever articulated reference 22.

Les deux bras 50 et 52 de la plaque 49 se présentent sous la forme d'une plaque verticale perpendiculaire à l'axe d'articulation A2 et la face latérale arrière 51 de la plaque articulée 49 commune aux deux bras est adjacente à la face latérale avant 59 de la branche horizontale 58 du levier articulé de renvoi 22 qui est elle aussi réalisée sous la forme d'une plaque verticale.The two arms 50 and 52 of the plate 49 are presented in the form of a vertical plate perpendicular to the axis hinge A2 and the rear side face 51 of the plate articulated 49 common to both arms is adjacent to the face front side 59 of the horizontal branch 58 of the lever articulated return 22 which is also produced in the form of a vertical plate.

Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, la branche horizontale 58 du levier de renvoi 22 comporte un trou débouchant 66 qui s'étend selon une direction horizontale parallèle à l'axe d'articulation A2 et qui constitue tout d'abord un trou de blocage en rotation de la branche horizontale 58, c'est-à-dire de blocage en rotation du levier articulé de renvoi 22 dans sa position de repos représentée notamment aux figures 5 à 7.In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the horizontal branch 58 of the return lever 22 has a hole opening 66 which extends in a horizontal direction parallel to the axis of articulation A2 and which firstly constitutes a hole for blocking the horizontal branch 58 in rotation, that is to say rotationally locking the articulated return lever 22 in its rest position shown in particular in Figures 5 to 7.

Le trou de blocage 66 est susceptible de recevoir un doigt de blocage 68, qui est monté coulissant par rapport au support fixe 12 selon une direction axiale horizontale parallèle à l'axe d'articulation A2, et qui appartient à un chariot de blocage motorisé 70.The blocking hole 66 is capable of receiving a locking pin 68, which is slidably mounted relative to the fixed support 12 in a parallel horizontal axial direction to the articulation axis A2, and which belongs to a carriage motorized locking 70.

Le chariot de blocage 70 est monté coulissant axialement et horizontalement dans un boítier 72 dans lequel il est guidé en coulissement dans les deux sens entre une position extrême arrière reculée représenté à la figure 13 et une position extrême avant avancée, représentée à la figure 7, vers laquelle il est sollicité élastiquement en permanence par un ressort de rappel 74 qui est ici un ressort hélicoïdal de compression monté entre des parties en vis-à-vis du chariot de blocage 70 et du boítier 72. The blocking carriage 70 is slidably mounted axially and horizontally in a housing 72 in which it is slid back and forth between a far back rear position shown in Figure 13 and an extreme forward forward position, shown in FIG. 7, towards which it is permanently elastically stressed by a return spring 74 which is here a helical spring of compression mounted between parts facing the carriage blocking 70 and the housing 72.

Ainsi, sous l'action du ressort de chariot 74, le chariot est sollicité axialement, vers la droite en considérant les figures 5 et 7, vers une position de butée dans le boítier 72 dans laquelle le doigt de blocage 68 fait saillie axialement vers l'avant en dehors du boítier 72 pour être reçu dans le trou 66 de blocage de la branche horizontale 58 du levier articulé de renvoi 22.Thus, under the action of the carriage spring 74, the carriage is biased axially, to the right considering the Figures 5 and 7, to a stop position in the housing 72 in which the locking pin 68 projects axially towards the front outside the box 72 to be received in the hole 66 blocking the horizontal branch 58 of the articulated lever of reference 22.

Les déplacements dans les deux sens du chariot de blocage 70 sont commandés par une came de commande 76 qui est montée à rotation autour d'un axe vertical A3 et qui est susceptible d'être entraínée en rotation dans les deux sens par un motoréducteur 78 fixé sur le boítier 72 et dont la rotation dans les deux sens est commandée par la centrale d'antivol (non représentée) du véhicule.Movements in both directions of the blocking 70 are controlled by a control cam 76 which is rotatably mounted about a vertical axis A3 and which is likely to be rotated in both directions by a geared motor 78 fixed on the housing 72 and the rotation in both directions is controlled by the control unit anti-theft system (not shown) of the vehicle.

Par son profil de came de forme ovoïde, la came 76 est susceptible, en tournant dans le sens anti-horaire autour de l'axe A3 en considérant la figure 7, de provoquer le déplacement du chariot de guidage 70, de la droite vers la gauche en considérant la figure 7, à l'encontre de l'effort appliqué par le ressort de chariot 74 ou bien de provoquer le déplacement de la gauche vers la droite du chariot 70 en considérant la figure 13, la came 76 tournant alors à cet effet dans le sens horaire autour de l'axe A3.By its cam profile of ovoid shape, the cam 76 is susceptible, turning counterclockwise around axis A3 considering figure 7, to cause the movement of the guide carriage 70, from right to left considering figure 7, against the effort applied by the carriage spring 74 or else cause the movement from left to right of carriage 70 in considering FIG. 13, the cam 76 then rotating for this purpose clockwise around the A3 axis.

Selon l'une ou l'autre des deux positions angulaires opposées de la came 76, le chariot de blocage 70 occupe l'une ou l'autre de ses deux positions axiales extrêmes opposées illustrées notamment aux figures 7 et 13 et, de manière correspondante, le doigt de blocage 68 occupe l'une ou l'autre de ses deux positions axiales extrêmes opposées, respectivement sa position avant sortie de débrayage illustrée à la figure 16 dans laquelle son extrémité libre avant est reçue dans le trou de blocage 66, et sa position axiale extrême arrière rentrée d'embrayage, dans laquelle son extrémité libre est située entièrement en dehors du trou de blocage 66.According to one or the other of the two angular positions opposite the cam 76, the blocking carriage 70 occupies one either of its two opposite extreme axial positions illustrated in particular in FIGS. 7 and 13 and, so corresponding, the locking finger 68 occupies one or the other from its two opposite extreme axial positions, respectively its position before clutch release illustrated in figure 16 in which its free front end is received in the blocking hole 66, and its extreme axial position rear clutch retraction, in which its free end is located entirely outside the blocking hole 66.

Comme on l'a représenté de manière schématique sur les figures, la came 76 comporte une tige radiale d'entraínement 80 qui est lui est liée en rotation et qui fait saillie à l'extérieur du boítier 72, à travers une fenêtre 82 de ce dernier, en s'étendant dans un plan horizontal perpendiculaire à l'axe A3, de manière que le tronçon d'extrémité libre de la tige d'entraínement 80 soit reçu dans une fourchette 84 formée à l'extrémité libre radiale d'un bras 86 qui est entraíné en rotation dans les deux sens par un organe rotatif de sortie 88 appartenant à un verrou mécanique 90 qui équipe aussi la poignée selon l'invention.As shown schematically on the figures, the cam 76 comprises a radial drive rod 80 which is it is linked in rotation and which protrudes to the exterior of the housing 72, through a window 82 of this last, extending in a perpendicular horizontal plane to the A3 axis, so that the free end section of the drive rod 80 is received in a fork 84 formed at the radial free end of an arm 86 which is driven in rotation in both directions by a rotary output member 88 belonging to a mechanical lock 90 which also equips the handle according to the invention.

Il est ainsi possible d'entraíner manuellement la came 76 en rotation dans les deux sens à l'aide du verrou 90 dont l'axe de rotation A4 est horizontal et perpendiculaire à l'axe A3 et à l'axe A2.It is thus possible to manually train the cam 76 rotating in both directions using the bolt 90 of which the axis of rotation A4 is horizontal and perpendicular to the axis A3 and axis A2.

Enfin, conformément à l'invention, il est prévu des moyens 92 d'indexation de la plaque 49 associée à la palette 14 et du levier de renvoi 22 pour rendre ces deux pièces solidaires en rotation l'une de l'autre pour permettre une utilisation normale de la poignée pour provoquer le déverrouillage de l'ouvrant après qu'une première ouverture sécurisée ait été effectuée.Finally, in accordance with the invention, provision is made for means 92 for indexing the plate 49 associated with the pallet 14 and the return lever 22 to make these two parts integral in rotation with one another to allow normal use of the handle to cause the unlocking of the sash after a first opening secure.

Ces moyens 92 sont constitués pour l'essentiel par un doigt d'indexation 94 qui est porté par un boítier 96 appartenant à la plaque articulée 49.These means 92 consist essentially of a indexing finger 94 which is carried by a housing 96 belonging to the articulated plate 49.

Le boítier 96 porté par la plaque 49 reçoit en coulissement axial dans les deux sens le doigt d'indexation 94 qui est sollicité élastiquement en permanence vers l'arrière selon la direction axiale parallèle à l'axe A2 par un ressort d'indexation 98 qui le pousse en permanence vers la gauche en considérant par exemple les figures 5 et 7.The housing 96 carried by the plate 49 receives in sliding axial in both directions the indexing finger 94 which is permanently elastically urged backwards according to the axial direction parallel to axis A2 by an indexing spring 98 which pushes him permanently to the left considering for example Figures 5 and 7.

Au droit du boítier 96, la plaque 49 comporte un trou 100 à travers lequel s'étend le doigt d'indexation 94 qui peut ainsi faire saillie axialement vers l'arrière, c'est-à-dire vers la gauche en considérant les figures 5 et 7 de manière que son extrémité libre arrière soit en regard de la face latérale avant 59 de la branche horizontale 28 du levier articulé de renvoi 22.Right of the housing 96, the plate 49 has a hole 100 through which extends the indexing finger 94 which can thus protrude axially backwards, that is to say towards the left considering Figures 5 and 7 so that its free rear end opposite the front side face 59 of the horizontal branch 28 of the articulated return lever 22.

Les dimensions du doigt de blocage 94 sont telles qu'il est susceptible d'être reçu dans le trou 66 du levier articulé de renvoi 22, 58 qui, dans le mode de réalisation représenté aux figures, constitue à la fois le trou de blocage et le trou d'indexation du levier articulé de renvoi 22.The dimensions of the locking finger 94 are such that it is likely to be received in hole 66 of the articulated lever of reference 22, 58 which, in the embodiment shown in figures, constitutes both the blocking hole and the hole indexing the articulated return lever 22.

Selon une variante non représentée, les trous de blocage et d'indexation peuvent être réalisés sous la forme de deux trous distincts destinés chacun à recevoir respectivement le doigt de blocage 68 et le doigt d'indexation 94.According to a variant not shown, the holes of blocking and indexing can be achieved in the form of two separate holes each intended to receive respectively the locking finger 68 and the indexing finger 94.

On décrira maintenant le fonctionnement de la poignée du système sécurisé d'antivol du véhicule en partant de la position illustrée aux figures 5 à 7.We will now describe the operation of the handle the vehicle's secure anti-theft system from the position illustrated in Figures 5 to 7.

Dans cette position, la serrure (non représentée) est verrouillée, la palette 14 avec la plaque 49 et le levier articulé de renvoi 22 sont dans leur position de repos, et le chariot de blocage 66 est dans sa position arrière reculée de débrayage par blocage du levier articulé de renvoi 22 dans laquelle le doigt de blocage 68 est reçu dans le trou 66 pour immobiliser en rotation le levier de renvoi 22 autour de son axe de rotation A2.In this position, the lock (not shown) is locked, the pallet 14 with the plate 49 and the articulated lever 22 are in their rest position, and the carriage blocking 66 is in its retracted rear clutch position by locking the articulated return lever 22 in which the locking pin 68 is received in hole 66 to immobilize in rotation the return lever 22 about its axis of rotation A2.

Lorsqu'un utilisateur approche du véhicule, il déclenche, de manière connue, le processus d'interrogation visant à déterminer s'il est un utilisateur autorisé. When a user approaches the vehicle, he initiates, in known manner, the interrogation process to determine if he is an authorized user.

Par exemple, le processus est déclenché soit par l'approche de la main de l'utilisateur près de la poignée ou à l'intérieur de la palette, ou il peut aussi être déclenché par un interrupteur comme mentionné précédemment en référence à l'état de la technique.For example, the process is triggered either by approach of the user's hand near the handle or inside the pallet, or it can also be triggered by a switch as previously mentioned with reference to the state of the art.

Le mouvement naturel de l'utilisateur consiste ensuite à agir sur la palette pour provoquer sa rotation et la rotation simultanée de la plaque 49, dans le sens anti-horaire en considérant la figure 6, à l'encontre de l'effort qui est appliqué par le ressort 24 à la plaque articulée 49 et à la palette 14.The natural movement of the user then consists in act on the pallet to cause its rotation and rotation simultaneous of plate 49, counterclockwise in considering figure 6, against the effort that is applied by the spring 24 to the articulated plate 49 and to the pallet 14.

Ce mouvement de rotation de la plaque 49 se poursuit jusqu'à ce que la palette 14 et la plaque 49 soient dans leur position commune d'ouverture illustrée aux figures 8 à 10.This rotation movement of the plate 49 continues until pallet 14 and plate 49 are in their common opening position illustrated in Figures 8 to 10.

Du fait de l'immobilisation en rotation du levier articulé de renvoi 22 par le doigt de blocage 68, l'action de l'utilisateur sur la palette 14 ne provoque aucune rotation du levier articulé de renvoi 22, ni donc d'action sur la serrure.Due to the immobilization in rotation of the articulated lever 22 by the locking finger 68, the action of the user on the pallet 14 does not cause any rotation of the articulated lever of reference 22, nor therefore of action on the lock.

En effet le mécanisme constitué par la plaque articulée 49 et le levier de renvoi 22 est débrayé au sens de l'invention.Indeed the mechanism constituted by the articulated plate 49 and the return lever 22 is disengaged within the meaning of the invention.

Pendant ce temps, sans que l'utilisateur n'ait relâché son effort sur la palette 14, la centrale d'antivol détermine s'il est un utilisateur autorisé.Meanwhile, without the user having released its effort on pallet 14, the anti-theft control unit determines whether is an authorized user.

Dans l'affirmative, la centrale d'antivol transmet un ordre de commande au moteur 78 d'entraínement de la came 76 qui provoque alors sa rotation dans le sens anti-horaire à partir de la position qu'elle occupe à la figure 10.If so, the central anti-theft system transmits a control command to the motor 78 for driving the cam 76 which then causes it to rotate counterclockwise at from the position it occupies in Figure 10.

Cette rotation, ici d'un quart de tour ou 90°, provoque le déplacement du chariot de blocage 70 de la droite vers la gauche en considérant la figure 10 pour aboutir à la position arrière reculée du chariot 70 et du doigt de blocage 68 illustrée notamment à la figure 13. This rotation, here of a quarter turn or 90 °, causes the movement of the blocking carriage 70 from the right to the left considering figure 10 to arrive at the position back of carriage 70 and locking pin 68 illustrated especially in Figure 13.

Dès que l'extrémité axiale avant du doigt de blocage 68 sort du trou de blocage 66, le levier articulé de renvoi 22 est libre de pivoter, dans le sens horaire en considérant la figure 12, sous l'action du ressort 56 qui a préalablement emmagasiné de l'énergie du fait du déplacement angulaire rotatif de la branche 52 de la plaque 49 par rapport au levier de renvoi articulé 22.As soon as the front axial end of the locking finger 68 comes out of the blocking hole 66, the articulated return lever 22 is free to rotate clockwise considering the figure 12, under the action of spring 56 which has previously stored energy due to angular displacement rotary of the branch 52 of the plate 49 relative to the lever articulated return 22.

Le ressort de traction 56 restitue donc alors l'énergie qu'il a accumulée pour provoquer la rotation du levier de renvoi 22 et l'action sur la serrure par l'intermédiaire du câble 64.The tension spring 56 therefore restores the energy that it accumulated to cause the lever to rotate reference 22 and action on the lock via cable 64.

La position d'ouverture du levier articulé de renvoi 22, illustrée notamment à la figure 12, par rapport à la plaque 49. et par rapport à la branche 52, est déterminée par la venue en butée de la partie 61 d'orientation verticale qui relie les branches 58 et 60 contre un bord en vis-à-vis de la plaque 49.The open position of the articulated return lever 22, illustrated in particular in FIG. 12, with respect to the plate 49. and compared to branch 52, is determined by the coming in abutment of the part 61 of vertical orientation which connects the branches 58 and 60 against an edge opposite the plate 49.

Dans la position illustrée aux figures 11 à 13, on a donc réalisé une première ouverture sécurisée, c'est-à-dire avec vérification de l'identité de l'utilisateur, de la serrure et l'utilisateur peut relâcher son effort sur la palette 14 qui, avec la plaque 49, revient à sa position de repos illustrée aux figures 14 à 16.In the position illustrated in FIGS. 11 to 13, there is therefore made a first secure opening, i.e. with verification of the identity of the user, of the lock and the user can relax his effort on the pallet 14 which, with the plate 49, returns to its rest position illustrated in Figures 14 to 16.

Le fait qu'une ouverture sécurisée de la serrure se soit produite peut être détecté tactilement par l'utilisateur qui perçoit un léger choc par le levier articulé de renvoi 22, lorsque le ressort 56 revient à son état initial comprimé en libérant l'énergie qu'il a emmagasinée. Cette indication peut aussi être fournie visuellement à l'utilisateur par un témoin lumineux aménagé à proximité de la poignée ou intégré au corps de la poignée.The fact that a secure opening of the lock occurred produced can be detected tactually by the user who perceives a slight shock by the articulated return lever 22, when the spring 56 returns to its initial state compressed in releasing the energy it has stored. This indication may also be provided visually to the user by a cookie luminous fitted near the handle or integrated into the handle body.

Dans son mouvement de retour, dans le sens horaire autour de l'axe A2 en considérant la figure 12, la plaque 49 entraíne en rotation de manière univoque le levier articulé de renvoi 22 car le doigt d'indexation 94 a préalablement pénétré automatiquement dans le trou 66 lorsque, en position d'ouverture des deux composants (figures 11 à 13), la plaque 49 et le levier de renvoi 22 se sont retrouvés dans une position angulaire relative dans laquelle le trou 66 était à nouveau en regard du trou 100 et du doigt d'indexation 94.In its return movement, clockwise around axis A2 considering figure 12, plate 49 uniquely rotates the articulated lever of reference 22 because the indexing finger 94 has previously penetrated automatically in hole 66 when in position opening of the two components (Figures 11 to 13), the plate 49 and the return lever 22 are in a position relative angular in which the hole 66 was again in look at the hole 100 and the indexing finger 94.

Les deux pièces 49 et 22 sont donc désormais solidaires en rotation l'une de l'autre tant que le doigt d'indexation 94, sous l'action de son ressort d'indexation 98, s'étend à la fois à travers le trou 100 et à travers le trou 66 faisant fonction de trou d'indexation.The two pieces 49 and 22 are therefore now united in rotation with each other as long as the finger indexing 94, under the action of its indexing spring 98, extends both through hole 100 and through hole 66 acting as an indexing hole.

En partant de la position illustrée aux figures 14 à 16, si l'utilisateur provoque, par l'intermédiaire de la centrale d'antivol, un verrouillage des ouvrants du véhicule, et notamment de l'ouvrant comportant la poignée 10, la centrale d'antivol provoque, par l'intermédiaire du moteur 78, la rotation dans le sens horaire autour de l'axe A3 de la came 76 de manière à provoquer un déplacement correspondant, de la gauche vers la droite en considérant la figure 16, du chariot de blocage 66 et donc du doigt de blocage 68, et ceci sous l'action du ressort de chariot 74.Starting from the position illustrated in Figures 14 to 16, if the user provokes, through the central anti-theft system, locking of the vehicle's windows, and in particular of the opening comprising the handle 10, the central anti-theft device causes, via the motor 78, the clockwise rotation around axis A3 of cam 76 so as to cause a corresponding displacement of the left to right considering figure 16, of the carriage blocking 66 and therefore blocking finger 68, and this under the action of the carriage spring 74.

Du fait du déplacement du chariot 70 axialement vers l'avant en position de débrayage, tous les composants sont à nouveau dans la position illustrée aux figures 5 à 7, c'est-à-dire que le doigt de blocage 68 se trouve à nouveau dans le trou de blocage 66.Due to the movement of the carriage 70 axially towards the front in the declutching position, all components are new in the position illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 7, that is to say that the locking pin 68 is again in the blocking hole 66.

Le positionnement relatif de la plaque 49 et du levier articulé de renvoi 22, et donc le positionnement relatif des trous 66 et 100, est tel que les doigts de blocage 68 et d'indexation 94 sont alignés axialement lorsque la plaque 49 et le levier articulé de renvoi 22 sont dans leur position commune de repos ou de fermeture, le doigt de blocage 68 chassant alors le doigt d'indexation 94 hors du trou 66 pour débrayer à nouveau le mécanisme, c'est-à-dire pour désolidariser à nouveau en rotation la plaque 49, et donc la palette 14, par rapport au levier articulé de renvoi 22.The relative positioning of the plate 49 and the lever articulated return 22, and therefore the relative positioning of holes 66 and 100, is such that the locking fingers 68 and indexing 94 are axially aligned when the plate 49 and the articulated return lever 22 are in their position resting or closing joint, the locking finger 68 then chasing the indexing finger 94 out of the hole 66 to disengage the mechanism again, i.e. for again separate the plate 49 in rotation, and therefore the pallet 14, relative to the articulated return lever 22.

En cas de défaillance de la centrale d'antivol ou du moteur 78, l'utilisateur peut bien entendu toujours provoquer l'ouverture de la serrure en agissant sur le verrou à barillet 90 pour provoquer la rotation, dans le sens horaire en considérant la figure 5, de l'organe de sortie 88 et du bras 90 autour de l'axe A4 pour provoquer un déplacement du chariot de blocage 68 vers sa position axiale arrière illustrée notamment aux figures 11 et 12 pour libérer en rotation le levier articulé de renvoi 22 et le rendre simultanément solidaire en rotation de la plaque 49, et donc de la palette 14 grâce au doigt d'indexation 94 qui peut alors pénétrer dans le trou 66.In the event of a failure of the anti-theft control unit or the engine 78, the user can of course always cause the opening of the lock by acting on the cylinder lock 90 to cause rotation, clockwise considering FIG. 5, of the outlet member 88 and of the arm 90 around A4 axis to cause movement of the blocking carriage 68 towards its rear axial position illustrated in particular in Figures 11 and 12 to release in rotation the articulated lever of reference 22 and make it simultaneously integral in rotation with the plate 49, and therefore of the pallet 14 thanks to the indexing finger 94 which can then enter hole 66.

Dans ce cas de figure, après action sur le verrou, la poignée se comporte alors comme une poignée mécanique classique d'action sur la serrure par l'intermédiaire de la plaque 49, du levier articulé de renvoi 22 et du câble 64, et ceci indépendamment de tout fonctionnement défaillant de la centrale d'antivol.In this case, after pressing the lock, the handle then behaves like a mechanical handle classic action on the lock through the plate 49, the articulated return lever 22 and the cable 64, and regardless of any malfunction of the anti-theft system.

La conception selon l'invention prévoyant un débrayage mécanique entre la palette 14 et le levier articulé de renvoi 22 permet une optimisation de la gestion de l'ensemble de la décondamnation du point de vue temporaire, c'est-à-dire du point de vue du séquencement des différentes phases de la décondamnation.The design according to the invention providing for a declutching mechanical between the pallet 14 and the articulated return lever 22 allows an optimization of the management of the whole unlocking from a temporary point of view, i.e. point of view of the sequencing of the different phases of the unlocking.

L'invention n'est pas limité au mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit. The invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described.

La palette peut notamment être de tout type et articulée par rapport à l'ouvrant autour d'un axe d'orientation quelconque.The pallet can in particular be of any type and articulated relative to the opening around an axis of orientation any.

La plaque 49 peut aussi être réalisée en une seule pièce avec la palette.The plate 49 can also be produced in a single piece with the pallet.

Qu'elle que soit la conception particulière de la palette la mise en oeuvre du principe de l'invention nécessite seulement de disposer de moyens débrayables commandés qui interviennent entre l'élément "moteur" de la palette sur lequel l'utilisateur agit manuellement en lui appliquant un effort, et un organe de renvoi du mouvement et de l'effort appliqué à la palette en direction de la serrure.Whatever the particular design of the pallet the implementation of the principle of the invention requires only to have controlled disengageable means which intervene between the "motor" element of the pallet on which the user acts manually by applying a force to him, and a mechanism for returning the movement and the force applied to the pallet towards the lock.
