L'axe L est orienté de l'avant vers l'arrière du véhicule, l'axe T de la gauche vers la droite et l'axe V du bas vers le haut.In the following description, the designated direction L is the longitudinal direction corresponding to the axis of advance of a vehicle, the designated direction T is transverse, the direction designated V is vertical. The L axis is oriented from front to rear of the vehicle, the T axis from left to right and the V axis from bottom to top.

Traditionnellement, un véhicule automobile est équipé d'ouvrants dont un capot avant, généralement au dessus du moteur.Traditionally, a motor vehicle is equipped with openings including a front cover, usually above the engine.

Dans le cadre de l'amélioration de la sécurité des véhicules lors d'un accident impliquant un piéton, les capots moteurs disposent de moyens de sécurité dits pour le choc piéton. Ces moyens de sécurité sont destinés à réduire les risques de blessure lors d'un accident lors du choc entre véhicule et piéton.As part of the improvement of vehicle safety during a pedestrian accident, the engine hoods have so-called pedestrian safety means. These safety means are intended to reduce the risk of injury in an accident during the collision between vehicle and pedestrian.

Selon l'invention, les moyens de sécurité sont aménagés sur un dispositif de verrouillage du capot à la carrosserie du véhicule, en l'espèce un fil de gâche qui est adapté à coopérer avec un pêne de serrure.According to the invention, the safety means are arranged on a hood locking device to the vehicle body, in this case a striker wire which is adapted to cooperate with a lock bolt.

Le dispositif de verrouillage d'ouvrant de véhicule selon l'invention comporte un support 10 sur lequel est soudé un fil de gâche 12. Le support est fixé par exemple par rivetage sur la face interne du capot 14 du véhicule, comme représenté à la figure 1. Le support est formé par une unique plaque en tôle de 8 millimètres d'épaisseur, découpée et pliée.The vehicle opening lock device according to the invention comprises a support 10 on which is welded a strike wire 12. The support is fixed for example by riveting on the inner face of the cover 14 of the vehicle, as shown in FIG. 1. The support is formed by a single sheet metal plate 8 millimeters thick, cut and folded.

Le fil de gâche est soudé sur un panneau 20 du support 10. Le panneau 20 est de section sensiblement rectangulaire.The striker wire is welded to a panel 20 of the support 10. The panel 20 is of substantially rectangular section.

Le fil de gâche 12 est un fil de gâche classique comportant une branche ou tronçon longitudinal 30 soudé sur le panneau 20, un premier tronçon 32 incliné verticalement et transversalement, un tronçon longitudinal de verrouillage 34 qui est adapté à coopérer avec la serrure, un deuxième tronçon 36 incurvé verticalement et transversalement et un tronçon transversal 38 soudé sur le panneau 20.The striker wire 12 is a conventional striker wire comprising a branch or longitudinal section 30 welded to the panel 20, a first section 32 inclined vertically and transversely, a longitudinal locking section 34 which is adapted to cooperate with the lock, a second section 36 curved vertically and transversely and a transverse section 38 welded to the panel 20.

Le panneau 20 délimite une ouverture 22 de passage d'un crochet de verrouillage du capot, le long du tronçon 38, et en regard du tronçon 34.The panel 20 defines an opening 22 for the passage of a hood locking hook, along the section 38, and opposite the section 34.

Ainsi, le panneau 20 comporte une première portion raccordée le long d'une première branche 30 du fil de gâche 18, une deuxième portion raccordée le long d'une deuxième branche 32 du fil de gâche perpendiculairement à la première portion et une troisième portion à la périphérie de l'ouverture 22 de passage d'un organe du véhicule, ladite ouverture étant parallèle à ladite deuxième portion.Thus, the panel 20 comprises a first portion connected along a first branch 30 of the striker wire 18, a second portion connected along a second branch 32 of the striker wire perpendicular to the first portion and a third portion to the periphery of the opening 22 for passage of a member of the vehicle, said opening being parallel to said second portion.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté, le support 10 comporte une paroi latérale raccordée sur chaque bord du panneau 20 de telle manière que le panneau 20 et les parois latérales ont sensiblement une forme de pyramide tronquée dont le panneau 20 est le sommet, chaque paroi latérale ayant sensiblement une section en trapèze. Les parois latérales sont inclinées au moins par rapport au panneau 20 et vont en s'évasant vers l'extérieur par rapport au panneau 20.In the exemplary embodiment shown, the support 10 has a side wall connected to each edge of the panel 20 so that the panel 20 and the side walls have a substantially truncated pyramid shape whose panel 20 is the top, each wall lateral having substantially a trapezoidal section. The side walls are inclined at least relative to the panel 20 and flare outwardly relative to the panel 20.

Deux premières parois latérales 42 opposées sont chacune raccordées au panneau 20 sur son côté le plus long, c'est-à-dire le côté transversal. Chaque première paroi latérale 42 est raccordée à une plaque d'embase 44 à l'opposé du panneau, sur le plus grand côté du trapèze.Two opposing first sidewalls 42 are each connected to the panel 20 on its longest side, i.e., the transverse side. Each first side wall 42 is connected to a base plate 44 opposite the panel, on the longer side of the trapezium.

Le panneau 20 et les plaques d'embase 44 sont sensiblement parallèles. Chaque plaque d'embase 44 est fixée sur une tôle du capot 14 du le véhicule. Chaque plaque d'embase 44 comporte un perçage central pour la fixation sur le capot, ici par rivetage.The panel 20 and the base plates 44 are substantially parallel. Each base plate 44 is fixed on a plate of the cover 14 of the vehicle. Each base plate 44 has a central bore for attachment to the hood, here by riveting.

Au raccordement des parois latérales 42 et des plaques d'embase 44, le support 10 comporte une portion 45 de paroi latérale 42 sensiblement perpendiculaire à chaque plaque d'embase 44. La hauteur de chaque portion 45 représente par exemple un dixième de la hauteur entre les plaques d'embase 44 et le panneau 20.At the connection of the side walls 42 and the base plates 44, the support 10 comprises a portion 45 of side wall 42 substantially perpendicular to each base plate 44. The height of each portion 45 is for example one tenth of the height between the base plates 44 and the panel 20.

Deux secondes parois latérales 46, en l'espèce des parois transversales, opposées sont chacune raccordées au panneau à une première extrémité et libre à une deuxième extrémité opposée. L'extrémité libre correspond au plus grand côté du trapèze de chaque paroi latérale 46. L'extrémité libre n'est pas fixée au capot, si bien qu'elle peut se déplacer par rapport à ce dernier.Two second side walls 46, in this case opposite transverse walls are each connected to the panel at one end and free at an opposite second end. The free end corresponds to the largest side of the trapezium of each side wall 46. The free end is not fixed to the cover, so that it can move relative to the latter.

Une plaque d'appui 48 est raccordée à la base de la paroi latérale 46 placée vers l'arrière. La plaque 48 est parallèle au panneau 20. La plaque d'appui 48 est en appui sur la tôle inférieure du capot 14, sans être fixée audit capot. Elle est donc libre par rapport au capot.A support plate 48 is connected to the base of the side wall 46 placed rearwardly. The plate 48 is parallel to the panel 20. The support plate 48 is supported on the lower plate of the cover 14, without being fixed to said cover. It is therefore free compared to the hood.

L'ouverture 22 est parallèle aux arrêtes de raccordement du panneau 20 avec les parois latérales 46.The opening 22 is parallel to the connecting edges of the panel 20 with the side walls 46.

Le support 10 comporte des fentes au niveau des arrêtes de la pyramide situées entre les parois latérales. La tranche de chaque paroi latérale 42, 46 est libre par rapport à la tranche adjacente d'une paroi latérale voisine 42, 46. Ainsi, le support n'est pas rigidifié au niveau desdites arrêtes.The support 10 has slots at the edges of the pyramid located between the side walls. The edge of each side wall 42, 46 is free from the adjacent edge of a neighboring side wall 42, 46. Thus, the support is not stiffened at said edges.

Lors d'un accident impliquant un piéton, le corps du piéton entre en contact avec le capot qui a tendance à s'enfoncer. Afin de limiter les risques de blessure, le capot doit absorber de l'énergie.In an accident involving a pedestrian, the pedestrian's body comes into contact with the bonnet, which tends to sink. To reduce the risk of injury, the hood must absorb energy.

A cette fin, les parois latérales du support sont adaptées à se déformer entre une position déployée et une position repliée. Entre ces positions, la déformation du support 10 permet d'absorber de l'énergie.For this purpose, the lateral walls of the support are adapted to deform between an extended position and a folded position. Enter these positions, the deformation of the support 10 can absorb energy.

Dans la position repliée, les premières parois latérales 42, ici longitudinales, sont compactées. Les premières latérales 42 sont compactées par pliage en compression, avec diminution de la hauteur du support.In the folded position, the first lateral walls 42, here longitudinal, are compacted. The first lateral 42 are compacted by folding in compression, with reduction of the height of the support.

Lors du passage de la position déployée à la position repliée, les deuxièmes parois latérales 46, ici transversales, pivotent par rapport au panneau 20 en s'écartant latéralement. Les parois latérales 46 apportent de la rigidité au support 10, en particulier du panneau 20.When moving from the deployed position to the folded position, the second lateral walls 46, here transverse, pivot relative to the panel 20 laterally apart. The side walls 46 provide rigidity to the support 10, in particular the panel 20.

Avantageusement, une certaine rigidité du support est ainsi préservée pour une déformation optimale les parois latérales 42 qui se compactent. L'assise du fil de gâche 12 sur le panneau 20 reste optimale lors de la déformation du support 10.Advantageously, a certain rigidity of the support is thus preserved for optimum deformation the side walls 42 which compact. The seat of the striker thread 12 on the panel 20 remains optimal during the deformation of the support 10.

Avantageusement, le support selon l'invention constitue un dispositif de sécurité dont les parois latérales sont adaptées se déformer entre la position déployée et la position repliée lors d'un choc sur l'ouvrant.Advantageously, the support according to the invention constitutes a safety device whose side walls are adapted to deform between the deployed position and the folded position during an impact on the opening.
