Description

L'invention concerne un dispositif de double articulation de porte d'une caisse d'un véhicule industriel ainsi qu'une caisse d'un véhicule industriel comportant un tel dispositif.The invention relates to a device for double articulation of door of a body of an industrial vehicle as well as a body of a industrial vehicle comprising such a device.

Les caisses montées sur des véhicules industriels utilisées par exemple pour des travaux publics sont équipées d'une porte basculante arrière. De telles portes sont habituellement constituées de deux vantaux, ce qui permet d'utiliser la porte arrière soit en la fonction dite "deux vantaux", chaque vantail étant alors rabattu sur les côtés de la caisse par le chauffeur avant de benner (basculer) la caisse pour la vider, soit en fonction dite "oscillante", la porte étant alors articulée en partie haute et passant au-dessus du tas constitué par le produit sortant de la caisse lors de l'opération de bennage. L'avantage de l'utilisation d'une double articulation, par rapport à l'utilisation d'une articulation simple, pour la fixation de la porte basculante sur la caisse est qu'elle permet à la porte de se soulever, soit lors du passage au-dessus du terrain par cette dernière configuration, soit lorsque la porte rencontre un obstacle ou lorsqu'elle touche le sol lors du bennage. Toutefois, dans ce dernier cas, il y a malgré tout un risque accru de rupture des articulations.Boxes mounted on industrial vehicles used for example for public works are equipped with a door tilting rear. Such doors are usually consisting of two leaves, which allows the door to be used rear either in the so-called "two leaf" function, each leaf then being folded down on the sides of the body by the driver before dumping (tipping) the box to empty it, either depending called "oscillating", the door then being hinged in the upper part and passing over the pile formed by the product leaving the body during the tipping operation. The advantage of using of a double articulation, compared to the use of a simple articulation, for fixing the tilting door on the is that it allows the door to lift, either when passage above the ground by this last configuration, either when the door encounters an obstacle or when it touches the soil during tipping. However, in the latter case, there is despite a whole increased risk of rupture of the joints.

Le but de l'invention est de concevoir un dispositif de double articulation ayant une meilleure résistance aux contraintes évoquées.The object of the invention is to design a double device joint with better resistance to stress mentioned.

Le but de l'invention est atteint avec un dispositif de double articulation de porte d'une caisse d'un véhicule industriel, comprenant deux pièces de montage destinées au montage du dispositif sur la caisse et sur la porte basculante respectivement et reliées entre elles par une biellette ayant deux extrémités, chaque pièce de montage étant reliée à la biellette par une articulation disposée à une extrémité correspondante de la biellette, les articulations ayant des axes parallèles.The object of the invention is achieved with a double device door hinge of a body of an industrial vehicle, comprising two mounting parts intended for mounting the device on the body and on the overhead door respectively and connected together by a link having two ends, each mounting part being connected to the link by a articulation arranged at a corresponding end of the connecting rod, the joints having parallel axes.

Conformément à l'invention, la biellette est formée par deux parties complémentaires assemblées le long d'un plan médian perpendiculaire aux axes d'articulation. According to the invention, the link is formed by two complementary parts assembled along a median plane perpendicular to the axes of articulation.

La réalisation d'une biellette en deux parties complémentaires permet de séparer la fonction d'axe d'articulation de la fonction montage de la biellette sur les pièces de montage. Grâce à cette disposition de l'invention, les dimensions de certains éléments du dispositif de double articulation résultent à un moindre degré d'un compromis entre les réponses aux différentes contraintes auxquelles la double articulation doit faire face que ce n'est le cas avec les articulations doubles utilisés avant l'invention. En effet, la séparation des deux fonctions est obtenue en utilisant les axes d'articulation exclusivement dans cette fonction et en prévoyant sur la biellette des moyens distincts d'assemblage. De plus, cette disposition de l'invention permet d'immobiliser les axes des articulations soit sur les pièces de montage, soit sur l'une des deux parties complémentaires de la biellette. Et dans l'ensemble, les moyens d'assemblage de la biellette sont formés de façon que l'assemblage de la biellette se fait en même temps que l'assemblage du dispositif de double articulation selon l'invention, comme cela sera décrit en détail plus loin.The realization of a link in two parts separate the articulation axis function of the rod mounting function on the mounting parts. Thanks to this arrangement of the invention, the dimensions of certain elements of the double articulation device result in a lesser degree of a compromise between responses to different constraints to which the double articulation must make that this is the case with the double joints used before the invention. Indeed, the separation of the two functions is obtained by using the hinge pins exclusively in this function and by providing separate means on the link assembly. In addition, this arrangement of the invention allows to immobilize the axes of the joints either on the parts of mounting, either on one of the two complementary parts of the link. And overall, the means of assembling the rod are formed so that the assembly of the rod is done at the same time as assembling the double device articulation according to the invention, as will be described in detail further.

L'avantage du dispositif de l'invention ressort plus particulièrement lorsque les deux parties complémentaires sont réalisées en tant que pièces forgées ou pièces usinées, ce qui leur confère une résistance mécanique plus élevée par rapport à celle de pièces moulées.The advantage of the device of the invention is more apparent especially when the two complementary parts are made as forgings or machined parts, which gives them a higher mechanical resistance compared to that of molded parts.

Afin que les deux parties complémentaires de la biellette ne risquent pas de se décaler l'une par rapport à l'autre dans le sens de leur longueur, et afin d'empêcher aussi des effets de cisaillement aussi bien sur les axes d'articulation que sur les moyens d'assemblage de la biellette, les parties complémentaires sont pourvues avantageusement dans une zone centrale de la biellette, sur les faces destinées à être mises en regard lors de l'assemblage de la biellette, de profils conjugués. De tels profils conjugués peuvent être obtenus en prévoyant, par exemple, sur la face de l'une des deux parties complémentaires, une partie en saillie et à l'endroit correspondant sur la face de l'autre partie complémentaire, une partie en retrait. En variante, chacune des deux parties complémentaires est pourvue, dans la zone centrale, sur les faces destinées à être mises en regard, d'une ou de deux parties en saillie et d'un nombre égal de parties en retrait.So that the two complementary parts of the link do not not likely to shift relative to each other in the direction of their length, and in order to also prevent effects of shear both on the articulation axes and on the connecting rod assembly means, complementary parts are advantageously provided in a central area of the connecting rod, on the faces intended to be compared during the assembly of the link, of conjugate profiles. Such profiles conjugates can be obtained by providing, for example, on the face of one of the two complementary parts, a part in projection and at the corresponding place on the face of the other part complementary, a set back. Alternatively, each of two complementary parts are provided, in the central area, on the faces intended to be opposite, one or two protruding parts and an equal number of recessed parts.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, chacune des deux parties complémentaires qui comprennent outre la zone centrale, deux zones d'extrémité destinées à recevoir les axes d'articulation, est formée à au moins une de ses deux extrémités opposées de façon que la zone d'extrémité s'étende le long d'un plan parallèle au plan médian de la biellette. Grâce à cette disposition, la biellette peut recevoir la pièce de montage correspondante entre les extrémités en regard des parties complémentaires.According to another characteristic of the invention, each of the two additional parts which include in addition to the area central, two end zones intended to receive the axes articulation, is formed at at least one of its two ends opposite so that the end zone extends along a plane parallel to the median plane of the link. Thanks to that arrangement, the rod can receive the mounting part corresponding between the ends opposite the parts complementary.

L'assemblage des deux parties complémentaires est fait moyennant au moins un élément d'assemblage, avantageusement moyennant deux éléments d'assemblage. Le ou les éléments d'assemblage sont disposés à une distance de chacune des deux articulations du dispositif d'articulation.The assembly of the two complementary parts is done with at least one connecting element, advantageously using two connecting elements. The element (s) are arranged at a distance from each of the two joints of the articulation device.

Avantageusement, les éléments d'assemblage sont constitués par des boulons destinés à être mis en place dans des perçages pratiqués dans la zone centrale des parties complémentaires. Le nombre de perçages correspond au nombre d'éléments d'assemblage et l'axe de chacun de ces perçages est parallèle aux axes d'articulation. Pour faciliter le montage des boulons, les perçages sont élargis du côté où sont logées les têtes des boulons. La forme et les dimensions de ces élargissements correspondent à celles des têtes de boulons destinées à y être logées. Ainsi, on n'a besoin que d'une seule clé pour visser et serrer les écrous sur les boulons.Advantageously, the assembly elements are consisting of bolts intended to be placed in drilling in the central area of the parts complementary. The number of holes corresponds to the number of assembly elements and the axis of each of these holes is parallel to the axes of articulation. To facilitate the mounting of bolts, the holes are widened on the side where the bolt heads. The shape and dimensions of these enlargements correspond to those of the bolt heads intended to be housed there. So you only need one key to screw and tighten the nuts on the bolts.

Avantageusement, les parties complémentaires sont pourvues, dans les zones d'extrémité de la biellette, de paliers destinés à recevoir les axes des articulations. Ces paliers peuvent être, par exemple, des inserts cylindriques réalisés en une matière synthétique ayant un faible coefficient de frottement, tels des coussinets auto-lubrifiants, ou des roulements. Advantageously, the complementary parts are provided, in the end zones of the link, with bearings intended to receive the axes of the joints. These bearings can be, for example, cylindrical inserts made of a material synthetic with a low coefficient of friction, such as self-lubricating bearings, or bearings.

Le but de l'invention est également atteint avec une caisse d'un véhicule industriel comportant une porte basculante, dans laquelle la porte est attachée à la caisse par un dispositif de double articulation décrit ci-avant.The object of the invention is also achieved with a box of an industrial vehicle with a tilting door, in which the door is attached to the body by a device double articulation described above.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront de la description ci-après d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention, cette description étant faite en référence aux dessins dans lesquels:

  • La Figure 1 montre un dispositif de double articulation selon l'invention en une vue en perspective, monté sur une caisse et une porte basculante,
  • La Figure 2 montre le dispositif de la figure 1 en une vue de dessus,
  • La Figure 3 montre la forme complémentaire des parties de la biellette du dispositif selon l'invention, et
  • La Figure 4 montre le dispositif de l'invention en une vue éclatée.
    • Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from the description below of an embodiment of the invention, this description being made with reference to the drawings in which:
  • FIG. 1 shows a double articulation device according to the invention in a perspective view, mounted on a body and a tilting door,
  • Figure 2 shows the device of Figure 1 in a top view,
  • FIG. 3 shows the complementary shape of the parts of the link of the device according to the invention, and
  • Figure 4 shows the device of the invention in an exploded view.

    • Le dispositif de double articulation comprend deux pièces de montage 1, 2 moyennant lesquelles le dispositif est monté respectivement sur une caisse C d'un véhicule industriel et sur une porte basculante P de cette caisse. Les deux pièces de montage sont reliées entre elles par une biellette 3 formée par deux parties complémentaires 31, 32 qui sont assemblées le long d'un plan médian M s'étendant perpendiculairement aux axes d'articulation du dispositif. La biellette 3 a deux extrémités opposées 33, 34. Les pièces de montages 1, 2 sont reliées à la biellette 3 par des articulations 11, 21 qui sont disposées à ces extrémités et dont les axes 12, 22 sont parallèles entre eux. Les parties complémentaires 31, 32 de la biellette 3 sont des pièces forgées. Chacune de ces parties complémentaires 31, 32 comprend une zone centrale et deux zones d'extrémités. Pour la partie 31, la zone centrale est référencée 311 et les deux zones d'extrémités sont référencées 312 et 313, et pour la partie 32, la zone centrale est référencée 321 et les deux zones d'extrémités sont référencées 322 et 323. Les deux parties complémentaires 31, 32 sont formées chacune à leurs deux extrémités de façon que les extrémités 33, 34 de la biellette 3 ressemblent à une fourche. Ceci est obtenu par le fait que les zones d'extrémités s'étendent le long des plans parallèles au plan médian M de la biellette 3, à savoir les deux extrémités de la partie 31 s'étendent le long d'un plan N1 situé d'un côté du plan médian M et les deux extrémités de la partie 32 s'étendent le long d'un plan N2 situé de l'autre côté du plan médian M de la biellette 3. Cette disposition permet de monter les pièces de montage 1, 2 entre les extrémités en regard des parties complémentaires 31, 32.The double articulation device comprises two pieces of mounting 1, 2 by means of which the device is mounted respectively on a body C of an industrial vehicle and on a tilting door P of this box. The two pieces of mounting are connected together by a rod 3 formed by two complementary parts 31, 32 which are assembled along of a median plane M extending perpendicular to the axes of articulation of the device. The rod 3 has two ends opposite 33, 34. The mounting parts 1, 2 are connected to the link 3 by joints 11, 21 which are arranged at these ends and whose axes 12, 22 are mutually parallel. The complementary parts 31, 32 of the link 3 are parts forged. Each of these complementary parts 31, 32 includes a central area and two end areas. For the part 31, the central zone is referenced 311 and the two zones ends are referenced 312 and 313, and for part 32, the central zone is referenced 321 and the two end zones are referenced 322 and 323. The two complementary parts 31, 32 are each formed at their two ends so that the ends 33, 34 of the link 3 resemble a fork. This is achieved by the fact that the end zones extend along the planes parallel to the median plane M of the link 3, at know the two ends of part 31 extend along a plane N1 located on one side of the median plane M and the two ends of part 32 extend along a plane N2 located on the other side of the median plane M of the link 3. This arrangement allows to mount the mounting parts 1, 2 between the ends in see additional parts 31, 32.

    Les axes 12, 22 des articulations du dispositif de l'invention sont constituées par des éléments cylindriques logés dans des orifices 35 à 38 disposés dans les zones d'extrémité 312, 313 et 322, 323 respectivement des pièces complémentaires 31, 32, et traversent des orifices 13, 23 pratiqués dans la pièce de montage 1 et dans la pièce de montage 2 respectivement. Les axes 12, 22 ne dépassent pas des faces extérieures de la biellette 3.The axes 12, 22 of the articulations of the device of the invention consist of cylindrical elements housed in orifices 35 to 38 arranged in the end zones 312, 313 and 322, 323 respectively of the complementary parts 31, 32, and pass through holes 13, 23 made in the mounting part 1 and in mounting piece 2 respectively. Axes 12, 22 do not protrude from the outer faces of the link 3.

    Les deux parties complémentaires 31, 32 sont assemblées moyennant deux éléments d'assemblage 4, 5 disposés à une distance de chacune des deux articulations 11, 21 du dispositif de double articulation. Les éléments d'assemblage 4, 5 sont constitués, dans le mode de réalisation représenté sur les Figures 1 et 2, de deux boulons logés dans des perçages 316, 318 de la partie 31 et 326, 328 de la partie 32 de la biellette 3. Afin de faciliter le montage des éléments d'assemblage 4, 5, les deux perçages 316 et 328 se terminent, à la face extérieure de la partie correspondante 31 ou 32, sous la forme d'un évidement hexagonal 317 (partie 31) et 327 (partie 32) destiné à recevoir la tête hexagonale d'un boulon inséré respectivement dans le perçage 316 et traversant le perçage 328 d'une part, et inséré dans le perçage 326 et traversant le perçage 318 d'autre part.The two complementary parts 31, 32 are assembled by means of two connecting elements 4, 5 arranged at a distance from each of the two joints 11, 21 of the double articulation. The assembly elements 4, 5 are constituted, in the embodiment shown in the Figures 1 and 2, two bolts housed in holes 316, 318 of the part 31 and 326, 328 of part 32 of the link 3. In order to facilitate the assembly of assembly elements 4, 5, both holes 316 and 328 end, on the outside of the part corresponding 31 or 32, in the form of a hexagonal recess 317 (part 31) and 327 (part 32) intended to receive the head hexagonal of a bolt inserted respectively in the hole 316 and passing through hole 328 on the one hand, and inserted into the hole 326 and passing through hole 318 on the other hand.

    Les deux parties complémentaires 31, 32 de la biellette 3 sont par ailleurs pourvues, dans la zone centrale de chacune de ces parties, sur les faces destinées à être mises en regard lors de l'assemblage de la biellette, de deux parties en saillie 314, 324 et deux parties en retrait 313, 325. Les parties en saillie et les parties en retrait ont des formes conjuguées.The two complementary parts 31, 32 of the link 3 are also provided, in the central area of each of these parts, on the faces intended to be compared during the assembly of the link, of two projecting parts 314, 324 and two recessed parts 313, 325. The projecting parts and the recessed parts have conjugate forms.

    Grâce à cette disposition de l'invention des forces longitudinales agissant sur la biellette 3 à partir de l'un des deux axes d'articulation 12, 22 vers l'autre axe et vice-versa sont supportées entièrement par l'ensemble des parties en retrait et des parties en saillie et n'exercent notamment pas d'effet de cisaillement sur les boulons 4, 5.Thanks to this arrangement of the invention of forces longitudinal acting on the rod 3 from one of the two articulation axes 12, 22 towards the other axis and vice versa are fully supported by all of the setbacks and protruding parts and in particular have no shear on bolts 4, 5.

    Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté sur la Figure 3, les deux parties en saillie 314, 324 ont la même forme et les mêmes dimensions, de même que les deux parties en retrait 315 et 325 de chacune des deux parties complémentaires 31, 32. De plus, les deux parties en saillie sont disposées en diagonales dans le rectangle défini par l'ensemble des parties en saillie et des parties en retrait de chacune des parties complémentaires. Toutefois, toute autre disposition des parties en retrait et des parties en saillie est possible, notamment lorsqu'il s'agit de se servir de ces parties comme détrompeur.In the embodiment shown in Figure 3, the two projecting parts 314, 324 have the same shape and the same dimensions, as well as the two recessed parts 315 and 325 of each of the two complementary parts 31, 32. In addition, the two projecting parts are arranged diagonally in the rectangle defined by the set of protruding parts and parts set back from each of the additional parts. However, any other provision of the withdrawing parties and the parties protrusion is possible, especially when it comes to using these parties as a key.

    Pour tirer le meilleur profit des dispositions de la présente invention, les axes 12, 22 des articulations 11, 21 peuvent être immobilisés dans un des trois perçages de chacune des articulations dans lesquelles l'axe est logé. Avantageusement, l'axe 12 de l'articulation 11 est inséré de force et ainsi immobilisé dans le perçage 13 de la pièce de montage 1 et sera logé libre de rotation dans les perçages 35, 36 des parties complémentaires 31, 32. De manière analogue, l'axe 22 de l'articulation 21 est avantageusement introduit de force et ainsi immobilisé dans le perçage 23 de la pièce de montage 2 et logé libre de rotation dans les perçages 37, 38 des parties complémentaires 31, 32.To make the most of the provisions of this invention, the axes 12, 22 of the joints 11, 21 can be immobilized in one of the three holes of each of the joints in which the axis is housed. advantageously, the axis 12 of the joint 11 is forcibly inserted and thus immobilized in the hole 13 of the mounting part 1 and will be housed free of rotation in the holes 35, 36 of the complementary parts 31, 32. Similarly, the axis 22 of the articulation 21 is advantageously introduced by force and thus immobilized in the hole 23 in mounting part 2 and housed free to rotate in the holes 37, 38 of the complementary parts 31, 32.

    Toutefois, il est également concevable, sans sortir du cadre de la présente invention, d'insérer de force et d'immobiliser les axes 12, 22 dans un des perçages des parties complémentaires 31, 32, par exemple dans les perçages 35, 38 de la partie 31.However, it is also conceivable, without departing from the framework of the present invention, forcibly inserting and immobilizing the axes 12, 22 in one of the holes in the complementary parts 31, 32, for example in the holes 35, 38 in part 31.

    Quelle que soit la variante choisie pour l'immobilisation des axes 12, 22, le logement libre de rotation est effectué dans des perçages restants dont chacun est pourvu, par exemple, d'une douille 14 en matière plastique ayant un faible coefficient de frottement.Whatever variant is chosen for immobilizing axes 12, 22, the free rotation housing is carried out in remaining holes each of which is provided, for example, with a plastic socket 14 having a low coefficient of friction.
