La manette de commande conforme à la présente invention illustrée sur les
La manette de commande conforme à la présente invention comporte par ailleurs, des moyens de liaison entre les bagues 100, 200 de commande et des moyens de contactage intégrés dans le corps d'un commutateur électrique. Ces moyens étant bien connus de l'homme de l'art ne seront pas décrits dans le détail par la suite.The control lever according to the present invention furthermore comprises connecting means between the
De même, les bagues de commande 100, 200 peuvent faire l'objet de nombreux modes de réalisation.Similarly, the
On notera simplement que selon le mode de réalisation représenté sur les figures annexées, ces bagues de commande 100, 200, concentriques et montées à rotation autour d'un axe O-O comprennent chacune une jupe globalement cylindrique 102, 202 centrée sur l'axe O-O et comportant sur leurs surfaces internes au moins un pion d'indexage ou index 104, 204 qui s'étend dans une direction globalement longitudinale, c'est-à-dire parallèle à l'axe O-O. L'index 104 porté par la bague 100 est dirigé vers la bague de commande 200 et inversement l'index de commande 204 porté par la bague 200 est dirigé vers la bague de commande 100. Les extrémités en regard des deux index 104, 204 sont globalement arrondies.Note simply that according to the embodiment shown in the accompanying figures, these
La platine support commun 300 peut faire l'objet de nombreux modes de réalisation.The
Selon le mode de réalisation préférentiel représenté sur les figures annexées, la platine 300 comprend un cylindre 302 centré sur l'axe O-O qui porte un anneau externe 304 relié au cylindre 302 par une pluralité d'entretoises radiales 306. Comme on le voit sur la
Le cylindre 302 comporte par ailleurs au moins deux logements 310, 320 destinés à recevoir des moyens de clipsage solidaires respectivement de chaque bague d'indexage 150, 250, selon des dispositions qui seront décrites plus en détail par la suite, pour assurer l'auto maintien des bagues d'indexage 150, 250 sur la platine 300 malgré la sollicitation du ressort 400. Ces logements 310, 320 peuvent eux-mêmes faire l'objet de nombreux modes de réalisation. Selon le mode de réalisation non limitatif représenté sur les figures annexées, il s'agit de deux logements de contour rectangulaire traversant l'épaisseur du cylindre 302 et disposés suivant une même génératrice longitudinale de ce dernier.The
Le ressort 400 peut de même faire l'objet de plusieurs modes de réalisation. Selon le mode de réalisation préférentiel donné sur les figures annexées, il s'agit d'un ressort spiral métallique dont le diamètre est adapté pour être disposé sur la surface extérieure du cylindre 302.The
Comme indiqué précédemment, de préférence dans le cadre de la présente invention, les deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 sont de structure identique et disposées tête bêche, à l'assemblage, c'est-à-dire symétriques par rapport à un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe longitudinal O-O respectivement de part et d'autre du ressort 400, en regard des bagues de commande 100, 200.As indicated above, preferably in the context of the present invention, the two
Selon le mode de réalisation préférentiel représenté sur les figures annexées, chaque bague d'indexage 150, 250 comprend un fût cylindrique 152, 252 dont le diamètre interne est supérieur au cylindre 302 et complémentaire de celui-ci, de sorte que les bagues d'indexage 150, 250 peuvent être montées à coulissement longitudinal et à rotation sur la platine 300, plus précisément le cylindre 302. Par ailleurs, les fûts cylindriques 152, 252 des bagues d'indexage 150, 250 ont un diamètre extérieur inférieur à celui interne des bagues de commande 100, 200 de sorte que les bagues d'indexage 150, 250 peuvent être positionnées à l'intérieur de ces dernières.According to the preferred embodiment shown in the appended figures, each
Sur l'une de leur tranche transversale perpendiculaire à l'axe O-O, chaque bague d'indexage 150, 250 possède un profil évolutif définissant des rampes d'indexage. Plus précisément encore, de préférence, le profil précité défini sur l'une des tranches de chaque bague d'indexage 150, 250 est divisé en plusieurs secteurs dédiés pour certains à la définition de l'indexage de la bague de commande 100 et les autres à l'indexage de la bague de commande 200. L'on comprend en effet que la définition des positions instables et stables définies précédemment peut varier d'une bague de commande 100 à l'autre. Par exemple, le nombre de positions stables et l'écart angulaire défini entre celles-ci peut être différent entre les deux bagues de commande 100, 200. Le profil des rampes d'indexage défini sur la tranche des bagues 150, 250 doit être adapté en conséquence.On one of their transverse section perpendicular to the axis O-O, each
Plus précisément encore, selon le mode de réalisation préférentiel représenté sur les figures annexées à cette fin, la tranche de chacune des deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 est divisée en quatre secteurs couvrant chacun une ouverture angulaire de l'ordre de 90°. Deux de ces secteurs opposés 154, 254 sont par exemple dédiés à l'indexage de la bague de commande 100, tandis que les deux autres secteurs 156, 256 diamétralement opposés entre eux et intercalés entre les deux secteurs 154, 254 précités sont dédiés à l'indexage de la bague de commande 200. Bien évidemment, les deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 étant identiques, elles possèdent chacune les profils d'indexage permettant de coopérer avec chacune des deux bagues de commande 100, 200. Cependant, le positionnement angulaire des bagues d'indexage 150, 250 est tel que pour la bague d'indexage 150 associée à la bague de commande 100, les secteurs d'indexage 154 soient positionnés en regard des index 104, tandis que pour la bague d'indexage 250 associée à la bague de commande 200, se sont les secteurs d'indexage 256 qui sont positionnés en regard de l'index 204.More precisely, according to the preferred embodiment shown in the figures appended for this purpose, the wafer of each of the two
Sur sa seconde tranche, chaque bague d'indexage 150, 250 possède une pluralité de lames ou poutres longitudinales 160, 260. Celles-ci sont tout d'abord conçues pour être intercalées entre le cylindre support 302 et l'anneau 304, entre les entretoises radiales 306 pour permettre à la fois une liberté de translation et de rotation dans le secteur délimité entre deux entretoises radiales 306. Par ailleurs, les poutres 260 sont adaptées pour reposer par leur extrémité longitudinale contre la spire la plus extérieure axialement du ressort 400 de sorte que les deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250, lorsqu'elles sont positionnées sur la platine 300 sont sollicitées en écartement respectivement en direction des bagues de commande 100, 200.On its second edge, each
Néanmoins, l'écartement entre les deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 est limité par des moyens de clipsage définis par des dents 162, 262 solidaires respectivement de l'extrémité longitudinale d'une lame 260. Les dents de clipsage précitées 162, 262 sont adaptées pour être positionnées, lors de l'assemblage, dans l'un des logements 310, 320 précités. Ainsi, une fois les bagues d'indexage 150, 250 positionnées sur la platine 300 de part et d'autre du ressort 400, les dents de clipsage 162, 262 étant positionnées respectivement dans un logement 310, 320, le dispositif d'indexage composé de la platine 300 des deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 et du ressort 400 forme un module autonome susceptible d'être manipulé sans risque de perte intempestive de l'une des pièces qui le compose.Nevertheless, the spacing between the two indexing
De préférence, le ressort 400 est réalisé en métal, tandis que les bagues de commande 100, 200, les bagues d'indexage 150, 250 et la platine support 300 sont réalisées en matériau thermoplastique.Preferably, the
Une caractéristique importante de la présente invention consiste ainsi en l'utilisation d'une pièce identique pour réaliser les deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250. Le cas échéant, si cela s'avère nécessaire, les rampes d'indexage 154, 156, 254, 256, ou encore les lames de sollicitation 160, 260 ou les moyens de clipsage 162, 262 peuvent aisément être adaptés pour l'une des deux bagues d'indexage 150, 250 en changeant au moins partiellement l'une des empreintes de moule dédiée à l'une de ces deux bagues.An important characteristic of the present invention thus consists in the use of an identical piece to produce the two
La présente invention offre de nombreux avantages par rapport à l'état de l'art. Elle permet une parfaite rationalisation de l'indexage manette. Elle permet une bonne standardisation de la fonction, une diminution sensible du volume et elle autorise un assemblage automatique.The present invention offers many advantages over the state of the art. It allows a perfect rationalization of indexing gamepad. It allows a good standardization of the function, a significant decrease of the volume and it allows an automatic assembly.
