Abstract

The invention concerns a vehicle door window-lift, comprising a guide rail (1) for a slider (6) supporting the window (7) capable of being driven by a cable (10) and means for automatically fixing the slider on the window; said means comprise a dowel pin (16) adapted to slide transversely in a bore (14) in the slider and in a hole (15) in the window, and means (17, 18) for causing the dowel pin to slide automatically from a first delivery position wherein it is not inserted in the hole, up to an operative position wherein it penetrates in the window hole and locks the slider on the window. Said means comprise two ramps (17, 18) inclined relative to the dowel pin (16) and to its sliding direction (F), formed on the rail (1) such that when the slider (6) moves along the rail (1), driven by the drive cable traction, it causes the dowel pin (16) to be thrust by the ramp from its delivery position towards its operative position wherein it penetrates into the window hole (15) and locks the slider (6) on the window. Said arrangement avoids providing locking by deformation of a plastic part.

Description

LEVE-VITRE DE PORTE DE VEHICULE A FIXAΗON AUTOMAΗQUE A LA VITRE DU CURSEUR SUPPORT DE VITREWINDOW REGULATOR FOR VEHICLE DOORS WITH AUTOMATIC FIXING TO THE GLASS OF THE WINDOW SUPPORT SLIDER
La présente invention a pour objet un lève-vitre de porte de véhicule, du type comprenant un rail de guidage d'un curseur de support de la vitre pouvant être entraîné par un câble, ainsi que des moyens de fixation du curseur à la vitre. On connaît des systèmes de positionnement automatique d'une vitre par « clipage » pour des lève-vitre du type à câble et tambour, ces systèmes étant basés sur le « clipage » d'une cheville fixée à la vitre dans le curseur, ou d'une languette en matière plastique faisant partie du curseur dans un trou de la vitre. Ces dispositifs impliquent la déformation d'une pièce en matière plastique pour réaliser la liaison avec la vitre, ce qui n'est pas entièrement satisfaisant.The present invention relates to a vehicle door window regulator, of the type comprising a guide rail for a glass support slider that can be driven by a cable, as well as means for fixing the slider to the glass. Automatic positioning systems for a window are known by "clipping" for window regulators of the cable and drum type, these systems being based on the "clipping" of a pin fixed to the window in the slider, or '' a plastic tab forming part of the cursor in a hole in the glass. These devices involve the deformation of a plastic part to make the connection with the glass, which is not entirely satisfactory.
L'invention a pour but de proposer un dispositif de fixation du curseur à la vitre qui évite , de devoir déformer une pièce en matière plastique et d'intervenir dans la porte. Conformément à l'invention, les moyens de fixation du curseur à la vitre comprennent une goupille adaptée pour pouvoir coulisser transversalement dans un alésage du .curseur et dans un trou de la vitre, ainsi que des moyens pour faire coulisser la goupille automatiquement d'une première position de livraison dans laquelle, elle n'est pas introduite dans le trou, jusqu'à une position d'utilisation dans laquelle elle . pénètre dans le trou de vitre et verrouille le curseur sur la vitre.The object of the invention is to propose a device for fixing the slider to the window which avoids having to deform a plastic part and intervening in the door. According to the invention, the means for fixing the slider to the glass comprise a pin adapted to be able to slide transversely in a bore of the slider and in a hole in the glass, as well as means for sliding the pin automatically from a first delivery position in which it is not introduced into the hole, up to a position of use in which it. enters the glass hole and locks the cursor on the glass.
Ce passage automatique de la goupille de sa position de livraison à sa position de livraison à sa position d'utilisation ou de fonctionnement s'effectue lors de la première manoeuvre du lève-vitre. Suivant un mode de réalisation de l'invention, les moyens pour faire coulisser la goupille comportent au moins une rampe inclinée par rapport à la goupille et à sa direction de coulissement, formée sur le rail, de guidage de manière qu'un déplacement du curseur sur le rail provoque une poussée de la goupille par la rampe à partir de sa position de livraison jusqu'à sa position d'utilisation.This automatic passage of the pin from its delivery position to its delivery position to its position of use or operation takes place during the first operation of the window regulator. According to one embodiment of the invention, the means for sliding the pin comprise at least one ramp inclined relative to the pin and to its sliding direction, formed on the rail, guiding so that a movement of the cursor on the rail causes the pin to push through the ramp from its delivery position to its position of use.
L'inclinaison et la longueur de la rampe sont ajustées de manière que le glissement d'une extrémité de la goupille d'un bout à l'autre de .la rampe provoque une translation de la goupille sur la course correspondant au passage d'une position à l'autre. Ainsi cette solution évite toute déformation d'une pièce en matière plastique au profit d'une simple translation d'une pièce qui peut être métallique D'autres particularités et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui va suivre, faite en référence aux dessins annexés qui en illustrent une forme de réalisation à titre d'exemple non limitatifThe inclination and the length of the ramp are adjusted so that the sliding of one end of the pin from one end to the other of the ramp causes the pin to translate over the stroke corresponding to the passage of a position to another. Thus this solution avoids any deformation of a plastic part in favor of a simple translation of a part which can be metallic Other features and advantages of the invention will appear during the description which follows, given with reference to the appended drawings which illustrate an embodiment thereof by way of nonlimiting example.

La figure 4 est une vue en^ élévation partielle analogue à la figure 2 montrant la goupille e. i position de verrouillage du curseur sur le rail Le lève-vitre de porte de véhicule, partiellement représente aux dessins, comprend un rail 1 faisant partie d'un module d'équipements fonctionnels disposé à l'intérieur d'un cadre 2 d'une porte de véhicule (figure 3) auquel il est fixé de manière connue en soi, par exemple par des boulons 3 traversant des zones embouties 4 du rail 1 et associés à des écrous 5 Le lève-vitre comprend également un curseur 6 de support de la vitre 7 pouvant être entraîné par un câble 10 et présentant une fente profilée 8 dans laquelle vient s'introduire une partie conjuguée 9 du rail 1 , sur lequel le curseur 6 peut ainsi coulisser De manière connue en soi, le curseur 6 est constitué d'un corps 1 1 dans lequel est agencée la fente profilée 8, et de deux pattes 12 saillant latéralement du corps 1 1 et distantes entre elles d'un écartement approprié, le bas de la vitre 7 venant se positionner entre les pattes 12 et le corps 1 1 , en appui sur le raccord 13.Figure 4 is a view in partial elevation ^ similar to Figure 2 showing the pin e. i position for locking the cursor on the rail The vehicle door window regulator, partially shown in the drawings, comprises a rail 1 forming part of a module of functional equipment arranged inside a frame 2 of a vehicle door (Figure 3) to which it is fixed in a manner known per se, for example by bolts 3 passing through stamped areas 4 of the rail 1 and associated with nuts 5 The window lifter also comprises a slider 6 for supporting the window 7 which can be driven by a cable 10 and having a profiled slot 8 into which a conjugate part 9 of the rail 1 is introduced, on which the cursor 6 can thus slide In a manner known per se, the cursor 6 consists of a body 1 1 in which is arranged the profiled slot 8, and two legs 12 projecting laterally from the body 1 1 and spaced apart by an appropriate spacing, the bottom of the glass 7 being positioned between the legs 12 and the body 1 1, resting on fitting 13.
Dans le corps 1 1 est ménagé un alésage transversal 14, en regard d'un trou correspondant 15 agencé dans la vitre L'alésage 14 et la fente 8 sont décales latéralement afin que l'alésage ne puisse déboucher dans la fente Le curseur 6 est équipé d'une goupille 16 pouvant coulisser dans l'alésage 14 et dans le trou de vitre 15, pour passer d'une première position de livraison, représentée à la figure 2, dans laquelle la goupille 16 ne pénètre pas dans le trou de vitre 15 jusqu'à une seconde position d'utilisation (visible à la figure 4), dans laquelle le nez de la goupille 16 est introduit dans le trou de vitre 15In the body 1 1 is formed a transverse bore 14, opposite a corresponding hole 15 arranged in the glass The bore 14 and the slot 8 are offset laterally so that the bore can not lead into the slot The cursor 6 is equipped with a pin 16 which can slide in the bore 14 and in the glass hole 15, to pass from a first delivery position, shown in FIG. 2, in which the pin 16 does not penetrate into the glass hole 15 to a second position of use (visible in FIG. 4), in which the nose of the pin 16 is introduced into the window hole 15
Dans la réalisation représentée, les moyens pour faire coulisser automatiquement la goupille 16 de sa première à sa seconde position comprennent deux rampes 17, 18 inclinées par rapport à la goupille 16 et à sa direction F de coulissement. Les rampes 17, 18 sont agencées respectivement de part et d'autre de l'embouti 4 lui même agencé dans la zone inférieure du rail 1 juste au dessus d'une poulie 19 de renvoi du câble 5 10. Les rampes 17, 18 sont symétriques par rapport à l'embouti 4, la rampe supérieure 17 présentant une inclinaison vers le haut et la rampe inférieure 18 présentant une inclinaison vers le bas, de sorte qu'elle constitue un profilé divergent, évasé en direction du curseur 6 . Les longueurs et les inclinaisons des rampes 17, 18 sont ajustées de manière que, l'extrémité de la O goupille 16 la plus éloignée du trou de vitre 15 étant pratiquement en contact avec le bas de la rampe 17 (ou le haut de la rampe inférieure 18) en position de livraison, un déplacement du curseur 6, entraîné par le câble 10, soit vers le haut soit vers le bas, provoque automatiquement un glissement de l'extrémité de la goupille 16 sur la rampe 17 ou 18 et par conséquent son 5 coulissement dans la direction F, dans l'alésage 14. Au terme du glissement de la goupille 16 sur la rampe 17 ou 18 (figure 4), ladite goupille a pénétré dans le trou de vitre 15 et ainsi verrouillé le curseur 6 sur la vitre 7. Dans sa position de livraison, la goupille 16 fait davantage saillie à l'extérieur de l'alésage 14 vers les rampes 17, 18, qu'illustré à la figure 2. o Afin de permettre l'expulsion éventuelle de la goupille 16 entre les deux pattes 12, ces dernières sont déportées latéralement sur le curseur 6, de chaque côté de l'alésage 14. L'introduction de la goupille 16 dans le curseur 6 peut être effectuée au moyen d'un trou 21 percé dans l'embouti 4, par exemple entre l'écrou 5 et la rampe supérieure 17. 5 Des moyens d'encliquetage de la goupille 16 sur le curseur 6 dans sa position d'utilisation sont également avantageusement prévus. Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, ces moyens d'encliquetage comprennent une gorge 22 formée sur la périphérie de la goupille 16, au voisinage de son extrémité opposée au trou de vitre 15, ainsi qu'un bossage annulaire complémentaire 23 du curseur 6, faisant saillie dans l'alésage 14. Le bossage 23 et la gorgeIn the embodiment shown, the means for automatically sliding the pin 16 from its first to its second position comprise two ramps 17, 18 inclined relative to the pin 16 and to its sliding direction F. The ramps 17, 18 are arranged respectively on either side of the pressed 4 itself arranged in the lower region of the rail 1 just above a pulley 19 for returning the cable 5 10. The ramps 17, 18 are symmetrical with respect to the stamped part 4, the upper ramp 17 having an upward inclination and the lower ramp 18 having a downward inclination, so that it constitutes a divergent profile, flared in the direction of the cursor 6. The lengths and the inclinations of the ramps 17, 18 are adjusted so that, the end of the pin O furthest from the glass hole 15 being practically in contact with the bottom of the ramp 17 (or the top of the ramp lower 18) in the delivery position, a movement of the slider 6, driven by the cable 10, either up or down, automatically causes the end of the pin 16 to slide on the ramp 17 or 18 and consequently its 5 sliding in the direction F, in the bore 14. At the end of the sliding of the pin 16 on the ramp 17 or 18 (FIG. 4), said pin has penetrated into the glass hole 15 and thus locked the cursor 6 on the window 7. In its delivery position, the pin 16 projects more outside of the bore 14 towards the ramps 17, 18, than illustrated in FIG. 2. In order to allow possible expulsion of the pin 16 between the two legs 12, the latter are offset sideways on the slider 6, on each side of the bore 14. The insertion of the pin 16 in the slider 6 can be carried out by means of a hole 21 drilled in the stamped 4, for example between the nut 5 and the upper ramp 17. 5 Means for latching the pin 16 on the slider 6 in its position of use are also advantageously provided. In the embodiment shown, these latching means comprise a groove 22 formed on the periphery of the pin 16, in the vicinity of its end opposite the window hole 15, as well as an additional annular boss 23 of the slider 6, protruding into the bore 14. The boss 23 and the groove
22 sont positionnés de manière que l'arrivée de la goupille 16 en position de verrouillage du curseur 6 sur la vitre 7 (figure 4) s'accompagne de l'encliquetage du bossage 23 dans la gorge 22. Après cet eπcliquetage, il subsiste un jeu j entre la face terminale 16a de la goupille 16 et le fond du rail 5 1. Ainsi, après verrouillage automatique du curseur 6 sur la vitre 7, cet agencement évite tout frottement de l'extrémité 16a de la goupille 16 sur le rail 1. Bien entendu en variante la gorge 22 pourrait être formée dans le curseur 6 et inversement le bossage 23 pourrait être formé sur la goupille 16.22 are positioned so that the arrival of the pin 16 in the locking position of the cursor 6 on the glass 7 (FIG. 4) is accompanied by the latching of the boss 23 in the groove 22. After this eπcliquing, there remains a clearance j between the end face 16a of the pin 16 and the bottom of the rail 5 1. Thus, after automatic locking of the cursor 6 on the window 7, this arrangement avoids any friction of the end 16a of the pin 16 on the rail 1 . Of course as a variant, the groove 22 could be formed in the slider 6 and conversely the boss 23 could be formed on the pin 16.
On comprend qu'une première manoeuvre du lève-vitre lors de sa mise en service, impliquant une course du curseur 6 sur le rail 1 , de préférence vers le haut, entraîne automatiquement un coulissement de la goupille 16 depuis sa position de livraison jusqu'à sa position de fonctionnement dès que son extrémité 16a vient au contact de la face intérieure de la rampe 17 (ou 1 8).It is understood that a first operation of the window lifter when it is put into service, involving a stroke of the cursor 6 on the rail 1, preferably upwards, automatically causes the pin 16 to slide from its delivery position to to its operating position as soon as its end 16a comes into contact with the internal face of the ramp 17 (or 1 8).
Ces rampes peuvent être aménagées dans d'autres zones du rail 1 que sa partie inférieure, par exemple dans un logement embouti ménagé dans la zone centrale du rail 1 , ou encore dans son embouti 24 situé à sa partie supérieure (figure 3).These ramps can be arranged in other areas of the rail 1 than its lower part, for example in a deep-drawn housing provided in the central area of the rail 1, or in its deep-drawn 24 located at its upper part (Figure 3).
L'invention est particulièrement intéressante pour les modules de porte étanches, car il n'est plus possible aux opérateurs d'y introduire la main après leur montage sur la porte. De ce fait, si après montage l'opérateur veut effectuer une intervention à l'intérieur de la porte, il n'existe pas d'autre solution que d'exécuter un trou dans la tôle support puis de le reboucher ensuite. L'invention évite de devoir procéder à une telle opération, toute intervention à l'intérieur de la porte après le montage du module étanche devenant pratiquement inutile du fait qu'une simple traction sur le câble provoque automatiquement le glissement de la goupille 16 sur la rampe 17 ou 18 et son introduction dans la vitre 7, sans qu'un réglage ou une correction complémentaire soit nécessaire ultérieurement.The invention is particularly advantageous for watertight door modules, because it is no longer possible for operators to introduce their hand into it after they have been mounted on the door. Therefore, if after mounting the operator wants to perform an intervention inside the door, there is no other solution than to execute a hole in the support sheet and then plug it again. The invention avoids having to carry out such an operation, any intervention inside the door after the assembly of the waterproof module becomes practically useless because a simple pull on the cable automatically causes the sliding of the pin 16 on the ramp 17 or 18 and its introduction into the window 7, without any additional adjustment or correction being necessary later.
Si l'on souhaite désolidariser la vitre 7 du curseur 6 après montage du lève-vitre, il suffit de placer le curseur 6 sur le rail 1 de telle sorte que sa goupille 16 se trouve exactement en regard du trou 21 . L'opérateur appuie alors avec un outil approprié sur l'extrémité 16a de la goupille 16, qui peut être chassée sans difficulté à l'extérieur du curseur 6, entre les pattes 12 (figure 3). Une telle opération peut être nécessaire dans le cadre d'un service après vente.If it is desired to separate the window 7 from the slider 6 after mounting the window lifter, it suffices to place the slider 6 on the rail 1 so that its pin 16 is exactly opposite the hole 21. The operator then presses with an appropriate tool on the end 16a of the pin 16, which can be removed without difficulty outside the cursor 6, between the tabs 12 (Figure 3). Such an operation may be necessary as part of an after-sales service.
L'invention est susceptible de diverses variantes d'exécution ; ainsi une seule rampe 17 ou 18 réalisée à un emplacement quelconque du rail 1 , serait suffisante pour permettre le déplacement de la goupille 16. The invention is susceptible of various variant embodiments; thus a single ramp 17 or 18 produced at any location on the rail 1 would be sufficient to allow the displacement of the pin 16.
