Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne un système d'assemblage d'un appareil d'activation d'une fermeture mobile sur un support fixe, et plus particulièrement d'un système d'entraínement d'un lève-vitre, du type câble-tambour, sur le panneau de porte d'un véhicule.The invention relates to a system for assembling an activation device. a movable closure on a fixed support, and more particularly a system for driving a window regulator, cable-drum type, on the door panel of a vehicle.
Actuellement les parties moteur et couvercle de tambour d'un lève-vitre sont assemblées ensemble avant d'être fixées sur le véhicule. Le moteur et le couvercle du tambour forment ainsi un seul élément qui peut être facilement manipulé par un opérateur. Mais en cas de panne du moteur, celui-ci ne peut pas être changé facilement. En effet, le démontage du moteur va entraíner le démontage du tambour et donc des câbles qui sont enroulés sur celui-ci. Un des désavantages de cette solution est que le système ne peut pas être facilement réparé en cas de panne du moteur par exemple.Currently the engine parts and drum cover of a window regulator are assembled together before being attached to the vehicle. The engine and drum cover thus form a single element which can be easily handled by an operator. But in case of engine failure, it cannot be changed easily. Indeed, the disassembly of the engine will cause the disassembly of the drum and therefore of the cables which are wound on it. One of disadvantages of this solution is that the system cannot be easily repaired in case of engine failure for example.
Un autre mode de réalisation décrit dans la demande de brevet Brose DE-19619087A1 résout ce problème. Mais le système constitué du moteur et du couvercle du tambour n'est pas franchement adaptable à tous les types de portes car il faut respecter un sens d'assemblage sur la porte: le couvercle puis le moteur (ou inversement).Another embodiment described in the Brose patent application DE-19619087A1 solves this problem. But the system consisting of the engine and the drum cover is not really adaptable to all types of doors because it is necessary to respect a direction of assembly on the door: the cover then the motor (Or vice versa).
Un autre désavantage de ce brevet est que le tambour et le couvercle sont indépendants avant leur fixation sur le panneau de porte ce qui peut poser des problèmes lors du transport du lève-vitre.Another disadvantage of this patent is that the drum and the cover are independent before their fixing on the door panel which can pose problems when transporting the window regulator.
DE 44 47 151 montre un lève-vitre électrique à câbles pour véhicule automobile dont le tambour loge dans une cavité ménagée entre un corps de couvercle et un capot. Le corps de couvercle est susceptible d'être fixé sur un support fixe par des premiers moyens de fixation et le capot est fixé sur le corps de couvercle. Le corps principal du moteur qui renferme l'arbre de transmission et le réducteur forme une seule pièce avec le corps de couvercle. En cas de panne du moteur, il est nécessaire de démonter le corps de couvercle en enlevant les premiers moyens de fixation, ce qui entraíne le démontage du tambour et des câbles enroulés sur celui-ci. DE 44 47 151 shows an electric window regulator for vehicles automobile whose drum is housed in a cavity formed between a body of cover and a cover. The cover body can be fixed on a fixed support by first fixing means and the cover is fixed on the body cover. The main body of the engine which encloses the drive shaft and the reducer forms a single piece with the cover body. In the event of a motor, it is necessary to disassemble the cover body by removing the first fixing means, which leads to the disassembly of the drum and cables wound on it.
Or il peut être parfois utile de manipuler le lève-vitre motorisé comme un ensemble, pour faciliter le transport, tout en gardant la possibilité de pouvoir démonter le moteur en cas de mauvais fonctionnement. On doit alors pouvoir assembler le lève-vitre comme un ensemble constitué du couvercle et du moteur.However it can sometimes be useful to handle the motorized window regulator as a together, to facilitate transport, while keeping the possibility of being able dismantle the engine in the event of a malfunction. We must then be able assemble the window regulator as an assembly consisting of the cover and the motor.
L'invention s'est donnée pour but de résoudre ces inconvénients.The object of the invention is to resolve these drawbacks.
L'invention concerne donc un système d'assemblage d'un appareil d'activation d'une fermeture mobile sur un support fixe, cet appareil d'activation comportant un tambour logeant dans un couvercle de tambour, et un ensemble moteur pour entraíner en rotation le tambour, le couvercle de tambour comportant un corps de couvercle susceptible d'être fixé sur le support fixe par des premiers moyens de fixation et un capot fixé sur ledit corps de couvercle, ledit corps de couvercle comportant des ergots qui en coopération avec le capot bloquent le tambour dans son logement.The invention therefore relates to a device assembly system for activating a movable closure on a fixed support, this activation device comprising a drum housed in a drum cover, and an assembly motor for rotating the drum, the drum cover comprising a cover body capable of being fixed to the fixed support by first fixing means and a cover fixed on said cover body, said body cover comprising lugs which in cooperation with the cover block the drum in its housing.
Selon l'invention ce système est caractérisé par le fait que l'ensemble moteur comporte un corps principal susceptible d'être fixé sur le corps de couvercle par des deuxièmes moyens de fixation et de telle manière que ledit ensemble moteur puisse être assemblé sur ledit corps de couvercle avant ou après l'assemblage dudit corps de couvercle sur le support fixe.According to the invention, this system is characterized in that the assembly engine has a main body capable of being fixed on the body of cover by second fixing means and in such a way that said motor assembly can be assembled on said cover body before or after assembling said cover body on the fixed support.
Les éléments couvercle et moteur peuvent être assemblés de 2 façons différentes sur le panneau de porte.The cover and motor elements can be assembled in 2 ways different on the door panel.
Soit le couvercle est fixé sur le panneau de porte puis le moteur est fixé sur le couvercle.Either the cover is fixed on the door panel then the motor is fixed on the cover.
Soit le moteur est fixé sur le couvercle puis l'ensemble est fixé sur le panneau de porte.Either the motor is fixed on the cover then the assembly is fixed on the door panel.
L'assemblage des différents éléments est donc plus modulable et le transport de ces éléments est facilité.The assembly of the different elements is therefore more flexible and the transportation of these items is facilitated.
En outre l'ensemble formé par le tambour et son couvercle sont liés de telle sorte que même si le couvercle n'est pas monté sur le panneau de porte, ou si le couvercle du tambour et le moteur ne sont pas assemblés, le tambour est quand même fixé dans son couvercle, d'où une manipulation plus aisée des éléments indépendants et sans risque que le câble ne s'échappe des gorges du tambour. In addition, the assembly formed by the drum and its cover are linked so that even if the cover is not mounted on the door panel, or if the drum cover and the motor are not assembled, the drum is when even fixed in its cover, hence easier handling of the elements independent and without risk of the cable escaping from the grooves of the drum.

D'autres avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention ressortiront à la lecture de la description suivante faite à titre d'exemple et non limitative.Other advantages and characteristics of the invention will become apparent from the reading of the following description given by way of example and without limitation.
La figure 1 représente une vue de l'état de l'art.Figure 1 shows a view of the state of the art.
La figure 2 montre en coupe un système de lève-vitre selon l'invention.Figure 2 shows in section a window regulator system according to the invention.
La figure 3 représente un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention.Figure 3 shows another embodiment of the invention.
La figure 4 représente une vue agrandie d'une partie de l'invention selon le détail IV de la figure 2. FIG. 4 represents an enlarged view of part of the invention according to detail IV of figure 2.
Dans la figure 1, le tambour (11) est logé dans le couvercle (2) qui est fixé sur le moteur (3) par des éléments de fixation (19) (par exemple des vis), on peut remarquer que si le moteur n'est pas assemblé, le tambour (11) est libre de sortir de son logement.In Figure 1, the drum (11) is housed in the cover (2) which is fixed to the motor (3) by fixing elements (19) (for example screws), we can notice that if the motor is not assembled, the drum (11) is free to get out of his accommodation.
Le panneau de porte (1) représente le support du système, constitué du tambour et de son couvercle (2), et du moteur (3), ce panneau de porte peut être une plaque de tôle emboutie ou une plaque en plastique moulée ou en tout autre matière qui peut être préformée et utilisable comme panneau de porte, dans la suite de la description on prendra comme exemple une plaque de tôle.The door panel (1) represents the support of the system, consisting of drum and its cover (2), and the motor (3), this door panel can be a stamped sheet metal plate or a molded plastic plate or any other material which can be preformed and usable as a door panel, in the following the description, a sheet metal plate will be taken as an example.
Sur le dessin 2, la plaque de tôle (1) est constituée d'une tôle emboutie
percée d'un trou (4), laissant passer les différents éléments, sa forme est définie de
sorte qu'elle délimite le côté sec (5) et le côté humide (6) ; le moteur se trouvant
côté sec et le câble et le tambour se trouvant côté humide.In
L'étanchéité est réalisée grâce à des joints : un premier joint (7) pour l'étanchéité entre la plaque et le couvercle, et un second joint (8) pour l'étanchéité entre le couvercle et le moteur.Sealing is achieved using seals: a first seal (7) for the seal between the plate and the cover, and a second seal (8) for sealing between the cover and the motor.
Le moteur (3) est constitué d'un axe (9) qui entraíne la roue (10), qui elle-même entraíne le tambour (11) grâce à des dents (12), les autres éléments du moteur sont connus et ne seront pas décrits.The motor (3) consists of an axis (9) which drives the wheel (10), which itself drives the drum (11) with teeth (12), the other elements of the engine are known and will not be described.
Le couvercle du tambour (2) est constitué d'une première partie (13) constituant le corps du couvercle, et d'une seconde partie (14) constituant un capot qui est fixé sur le corps (13), grâce à des clips (15) par exemple, en même temps que la mise en place du tambour (11) dans le couvercle, des câbles (non représentés) sont aussi mis en place autour du tambour.The drum cover (2) consists of a first part (13) constituting the body of the cover, and a second part (14) constituting a cover which is fixed on the body (13), thanks to clips (15) for example, at the same time that the placement of the drum (11) in the cover, cables (not shown) are also placed around the drum.
Le capot 14 et les ergots (16) bloquent le tambour ce qui permet un
transport facile de l'ensemble couvercle/tambour.The
L'ensemble ainsi constitué peut-être alors monté sur la tôle (1) et fixé par exemple par des vis (17) réparties régulièrement sur la périphérie.The assembly thus formed may then be mounted on the sheet (1) and fixed by example by screws (17) distributed regularly over the periphery.
L'ensemble moteur (3) comprend en outre un corps principal (18) qui vient se fixer sur le couvercle par exemple par des vis (19) réparties régulièrement. The motor assembly (3) further comprises a main body (18) which is fixed on the cover for example by screws (19) distributed regularly.
On peut aussi imaginer que les ensembles (2) et (3) soient d'abord unis et fixés entre eux par les vis (19), avant de fixer l'ensemble ainsi obtenu sur la tôle (1) grâce aux vis (17).We can also imagine that the sets (2) and (3) are first united and fixed together by screws (19), before fixing the assembly thus obtained on the sheet (1) thanks to the screws (17).
Le système est alors montable de différentes façons ce qui facilite l'assemblage et permet d'avoir plusieurs possibilités quand au sens d'assemblage des différents éléments.The system is then mountable in different ways which facilitates the assembly and allows to have several possibilities when in the direction of assembly of the different elements.
On remarquera que les têtes de vis sont toutes du côté sec de la tôle, c'est-à-dire qu'elles sont facilement accessibles à la personne qui assemble et désassemble le système.Note that the screw heads are all on the dry side of the sheet, that is, they are easily accessible to the person assembling and disassembles the system.
On peut facilement changer les moyens de fixation (18) et (19) par des clips, qui doivent être démontables, ces moyens de fixation sont certes moins performants pour la rigidité mais plus rentables quant au temps de montage.The fixing means (18) and (19) can easily be changed by clips, which must be removable, these fixing means are certainly less efficient for rigidity but more profitable in terms of assembly time.
Une autre possibilité concernant le couvercle du tambour serait de réaliser l'ouverture pour introduire le tambour du côté moteur. Le capot (14) serait alors du coté du moteur, les ergots (16) seraient alors réalisés par une forme particulière du capot (14), ce système permettra après démontage du moteur d'avoir accès au tambour après déclipsage du capot (14) et ce sans démontage des vis (17), on peut ainsi avoir accès à toutes les pièces par le même côté ce qui facilite les réparations en cas de panne d'un des éléments mobiles.Another possibility regarding the drum cover would be to make the opening to introduce the drum on the motor side. The cover (14) would then on the motor side, the pins (16) would then be made by a shape particular cover (14), this system will allow after disassembly of the engine to have access to the drum after unclipping the cover (14) without removing the screws (17), it is thus possible to access all the parts from the same side which facilitates repairs in the event of a breakdown of one of the moving parts.
Un autre avantage est que le palier de reprise (24), qui était sur la pièce
(14) et était plus ou moins rigide, est maintenant sur la pièce 13 qui est plus rigide
ce qui améliore la tenue mécanique du palier et la précision d'alignement des
axes.Another advantage is that the return bearing (24), which was on the part
(14) and was more or less rigid, is now on
La figure 3 représente l'invention dans le cas d'un lève-vitre manuel.Figure 3 shows the invention in the case of a manual window regulator.
Le système envisagé est un lève-vitre motorisé mais on peut très bien adapter ce principe à un lève-vitre manuel. Dans ce cas, l'axe (9) devient l'axe de rotation entraíné par la manivelle de l'utilisateur. Le moteur est alors remplacé par un système manuel (22), qui peut comprendre un système dit boíte de frein, qui viendrait se fixer sous le corps (13) grâce à des clips ou des pattes rabattables (21) qui viendraient se loger dans les encoches (20). The system envisaged is a motorized window lifter but we can very well adapt this principle to a manual window regulator. In this case, the axis (9) becomes the axis of rotation driven by the user's crank. The motor is then replaced by a manual system (22), which may include a so-called brake box system, which would be fixed under the body (13) thanks to clips or folding legs (21) which would be housed in the notches (20).
Les encoches (20) de cette configuration seront avantageusement placées à l'intérieur de la zone dite humide de la configuration motorisée définie par le périmètre intérieure du joint moteur (8) ; l'étanchéité qui était assurée par les joints (8) dans le cas motorisé, est assuré par les pattes (21) qui se logent dans les encoches (20) ce qui les obstruent et empêche l'eau de pénétrer à l'intérieure de la zone sèche dans le cas manuel. On peut aussi envisager d'avoir un joint (25) qui serait mis en place entre le système manuel (22) et le tambour.The notches (20) of this configuration will advantageously be placed inside the so-called wet zone of the motorized configuration defined by the inner perimeter of the engine seal (8); the tightness that was ensured by the seals (8) in the motorized case, is provided by the lugs (21) which are housed in the notches (20) which obstruct them and prevent water from entering the interior of the dry zone in the manual case. We can also consider having a seal (25) which would be placed between the manual system (22) and the drum.
On peut donc envisager de faire un seul composant (13) pour les systèmes manuels ou électriques, ce qui permet de réaliser des économies en rationalisant la production des différents types de lève-vitre.We can therefore consider making a single component (13) for the manual or electrical systems, which saves money by rationalizing the production of different types of window regulators.
Sur la figure 4 on a représenté un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention.FIG. 4 shows another embodiment of the invention.
Dans le cas d'une fixation du couvercle (2) sur la plaque (1) par les moyens de fixations (17), il est nécessaire, pour l'opérateur, de maintenir le couvercle (2), mais dans le cas d'un montage dans une porte, où l'encombrement est réduit, il est parfois difficile de maintenir le couvercle et de fixer les moyens de fixations (17) en même temps. Il faut donc un moyen qui assure un maintien suffisant du couvercle (2) sur la plaque (1) pour permettre à l'opérateur de fixer le couvercle (2) sur la plaque (1) par les moyens de fixations (17) sans avoir à tenir le couvercle pendant cette opération.If the cover (2) is fixed to the plate (1) by the fastening means (17), it is necessary for the operator to maintain the cover (2), but in the case of mounting in a door, where the space is reduced, it is sometimes difficult to maintain the cover and fix the means of fasteners (17) at the same time. We therefore need a means that ensures maintenance sufficient cover (2) on the plate (1) to allow the operator to fix the cover (2) on the plate (1) by the fixing means (17) without having to hold the cover during this operation.
Ce rôle de maintien peut être assuré par le joint (7) qui peut par adjonction d'une forme spéciale s'ancrer dans la plaque (1). La forme du joint (7) inclut, outre la partie (40) qui permet l'étanchéification, une partie (41) en forme de crochet, qui permet en se clipsant sur la plaque (1) de maintenir le couvercle (2).This holding role can be ensured by the seal (7) which can by adding a special shape to anchor in the plate (1). The shape of the joint (7) includes, in addition to the part (40) which allows sealing, a shaped part (41) hook, which clips onto the plate (1) to hold the cover (2).
La partie en forme de crochet (41) peut être continue tout le long du joint ou plusieurs formes en crochet peuvent être réparties le long du joint, auquel cas la partie en forme de crochet (41) est discontinue sur le périmètre du trou (4) du support fixe (1). The hook-shaped part (41) can be continuous all along the joint or several hook shapes can be distributed along the joint, in which case the hook-shaped part (41) is discontinuous around the perimeter of the hole (4) of the fixed support (1).
Ces formes assurent non seulement le maintien du couvercle (2) sur la plaque (1), mais ils améliorent aussi l'étanchéité et permettent de mettre en position le couvercle (2) par rapport à son logement dans la plaque (1).These shapes not only maintain the cover (2) on the plate (1), but they also improve sealing and allow position the cover (2) relative to its housing in the plate (1).
Le joint peut être d'une façon classique surmoulé ou collé sur le couvercle. Le joint peut aussi être collé sur la plaque (1) et les formes (41) se clipsent alors sur le couvercle.The joint can be conventionally overmolded or glued to the lid. The seal can also be glued to the plate (1) and the shapes (41) are then clip on the cover.
