Definitions

  • the invention relates to the assembly of a torsion spring between a fixed part and a moving part of a lighting and / or signaling device of a motor vehicle.
  • Projectors may also have rotating optical modules, comprising by optical module at least the light source associated with its reflector. This is the case of projectors with a turning function, a function also known by the British name of DBL for "Dynamic Bending Light".
  • Projectors may also be designed to have movable reflectors, for example projectors equipped with automatic attitude correction systems.
  • a movable screen projector in particular by pivoting, generally comprises a fixed engine support part and a movable support part, the movable support part being intended to tilt relative to the engine support part.
  • the support piece mobile supports at least one pivoting flap.
  • a movable support piece provided with the pivoting flap is intended to switch between a first position, said active position, in which light signals emitted by a light source of the projector are intercepted by the pivoting flap and a second position, said passive position, wherein the pivoting flap does not intercept the light beams of the light source.
  • a torsion spring involved in the relative movement between the fixed part and the moving part. This is the case, for example, when the moving part is driven by a motor relative to a fixed part, and a torsion spring is also provided between the two parts so that, in case of engine failure, the mobile part, through said spring, can switch back to a safe position (for example, in a non-glare code position in the case of dual-function cache mentioned above).
  • the invention aims to facilitate the mounting of projectors that have moving parts, including those using springs. Optionally, it also aims to obtain such projectors that are compact, simple design and yet reliable, especially in the movement of said moving parts.
  • the invention is more particularly intended for the field of motor vehicle headlamps but could also be applied in other fields.
  • the removable cover and the infrared filter are two particular examples of the pivoting flap equipping the projectors devices according to the invention.
  • the projectors devices concerned by the invention are all those that are likely to be equipped with a moving part, regardless of the function performed by said piece, able to move from one position to another at less in the projector.
  • the first branch When returning to the initial position of the flap, the first branch is moved by a second linear movement in the opposite direction of the first movement due to the return to the initial position of the spring.
  • Such a transformation of linear movements into rotational movements may require space to allow the first branch and the second branch to articulate relative to each other. Such space is responsible for the size of the projector.
  • the connecting means can be weakened following linear movements and following rotational movements repeating over time.
  • a DC motor for example placed in the engine support part and the torsion spring is interposed between the movable support part and the engine support part.
  • a torsion spring is formed of a central portion or body having a plurality of turns, a first end and a second end. The first end and the second end are placed on either side of the central portion while extending the same central portion.
  • the central portion is positioned around a support means formed on the movable support member and longitudinally with respect to an axis of the support means coincides with an axis of elongation of the same spring.
  • the first end and the second end are placed in abutment respectively against the movable support piece and against the engine support part so as to maintain the active position of the pivoting flap.
  • the motor is set to allow to fold down by swinging the pivoting flap from the active position towards the passive position, while possibly maintaining this passive position of the pivoting flap.
  • the spring allows the pivoting flap to return to its initial active position simply by folding the pivoting flap from the passive position towards the active position.
  • the mounting of the movable support piece in the engine support part can be made complicated by the presence of this spring.
  • the torsion spring is placed between the two parts with a torque between the two ends of the spring which allows the same spring to maintain the pivoting flap in the active position.
  • Such a torsion torque is obtained by rotating around the axis of elongation of the spring one end relative to the other in a winding direction of the turns of the central portion of the spring.
  • the step of winding one of the two ends around the axis of elongation of the spring is called a pre-arming step of the spring which allows to achieve a predetermined torque of the spring between the two ends.
  • This torque is greater than that required for a spring placed in abutment against the movable support part and against the engine support part.
  • Such a torsion torque of the necessary spring between the movable support part and the engine support part corresponds to a sufficient torque to maintain permanently the pivoting flap in active position.
  • An operator responsible for mounting the device Projector provided with such a torsion spring pivoting flap must therefore use specific tools capable of holding in place such a spring while creating a twisting force by winding one of the two ends as previously described, the time required to embed the mobile support part in the engine support part.
  • a projector device equipped with a movable support piece provided with a pre-positioning pin of the torsion spring.
  • a shoulder formed by the engine support part.
  • the pre-positioning pin is formed by the movable support piece at a location near the light source relative to another location formed by the shoulder against which is intended to rest the torsion spring in the engine support part, longitudinally with respect to a horizontal axis of propagation of the light beam from a rear portion towards a front portion of the projector device.
  • one of the two ends of the torsion spring is positioned in abutment against the movable support piece and the other end is previously positioned also bearing against the movable support piece. More specifically, the other end is placed in abutment against the pre-positioning pin after winding of the same end in the winding direction of the turns of the central portion.
  • the step of pre-positioning the spring against the prepositioning pin is called a pre-arming step of the torsion spring.
  • the invention thus allows the operator (or the robot if the assembly operation is automated) to more easily assemble the moving part to the fixed part by means of the spring, with a correct and simultaneous arming of the spring , thanks to this preliminary step of pre-weaving.
  • the movable part comprises a pre-armature pin against which rests one of the ends of the spring during assembly.
  • the operator or the machine can pre-arm the spring relative to a single piece, which is easily achievable.
  • the pre-arming pin comprises at least one chamfered zone. This chamfered area guides the end of the spring to be fixed on the pin, so as to facilitate / guarantee its correct positioning.
  • the moving part also comprises a functional pin having at least one stop.
  • a functional pin is understood the lug which will maintain the other end of the spring both in the pre-winding phase and in the assembled and finished headlamp, as opposed to the pre-winding lug which, once the finished assembly, has no function in the finished projector.
  • the movable part comprises a spring body support means having a cylinder portion projecting and provided with means for retaining the spring body after arming.
  • These retaining means are for example in the form of a flange, or one or more stops disposed radially at the edge or near the outer edge of the cylinder portion.
  • the body of the unreinforced spring preferably has a diameter greater than the apparent diameter of the cylinder portion in the area where the collar-type or abutment-type retaining means are located, and a diameter less than said apparent diameter, once armed.
  • apparent diameter is understood the diameter of the virtual circle in the zone provided with the retaining means and which passes through the radially furthest edges of the cylinder body of said abutment means (s) or collar.
  • the actual diameter of the cylinder is chosen similar to the diameter of the body of the spring loaded.
  • the spring according to the invention allows a relative movement between a movable part selected from a pivoting cover, a filter type infra-red filter, a reflector, an optical module, and a fixed part type support.
  • the invention also relates to a lighting and / or signaling device for a motor vehicle, of the projector type, comprising at least one fixed part relative to a moving part, and a torsion spring whose one end of spring is held on the movable part by a functional pin provided with at least one stop and the other end is held in the fixed part, the body of the spring being held by a support means having a cylinder portion projecting and provided with means for retaining the spring body.
  • Said moving part may comprise the pre-amarge lug and the retaining means described above.
  • the invention also relates to the vehicle comprising at least one of these devices.
  • the invention advantageously makes it possible to have the torsion spring on the movable support piece prior to mounting the movable support piece in the engine support part fixedly, without play, to have a movable support piece equipped with the torsion spring without risk. to lose the torsion spring by sliding the spring along the support means.
  • the invention also makes it possible to store very easily such a movable support piece provided with the torsion spring.
  • the support means around which is placed the central portion of the spring forms a stop collar, continuous or discontinuous.
  • This stop collar advantageously makes it possible to prevent the spring from escaping from the support means after one of the two ends were wound around the axis of elongation of the spring as previously mentioned.
  • the invention advantageously makes it possible to pre-arm the torsion spring directly on the movable support piece without the torsion spring being able to escape from this same piece.
