Description

La présente invention concerne un verrou de condamnation et un dispositif destiné à servir de support à la fois à une poignée extérieure de porte, et au verrou de condamnation permettant de condamner l'ouverture de ladite porte.The present invention relates to a locking latch and a device for supporting both an outer door handle and the lock for locking the opening of said door.

L'invention trouve une application particulièrement avantageuse, mais non exclusive, dans le domaine automobile.The invention finds a particularly advantageous, but not exclusive, application in the automotive field.

Classiquement, l'ouverture d'une porte depuis l'extérieur d'un véhicule automobile s'effectue soit à l'aide d'une poignée mobile dont le déplacement commande un mécanisme de serrure, soit au moyen d'une poignée fixe associée à un mécanisme de serrure indépendant cinématiquement parlant. Mais quel que soit le mode de réalisation retenu, le montage de la poignée sur la porte est habituellement réalisé par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif support qui est communément appelé étrier. De manière plus concrète, il s'agit en général d'une pièce monobloc qui est vissée à l'intérieur de la porte, directement contre la face interne du panneau le plus extérieur de ladite porte, et qui sert de socle d'ancrage pour la poignée montée mobile ou fixe.Conventionally, the opening of a door from outside a motor vehicle is effected either with a movable handle whose movement controls a lock mechanism, or by means of a fixed handle associated with an independent lock mechanism kinematically speaking. But regardless of the embodiment chosen, the mounting of the handle on the door is usually made via a support device which is commonly called stirrup. More concretely, it is generally a single piece which is screwed inside the door, directly against the inner face of the outermost panel of said door, and which serves as anchor base for the handle mounted mobile or fixed.

Aujourd'hui, lorsque les portes d'un véhicule automobile sont munies de verrous chargés d'en condamner l'ouverture, ces derniers sont de plus en plus souvent directement intégrés aux poignées. Pour cela, chaque étrier est traditionnellement pourvu d'un logement à même de recevoir un verrou rotatif complet qui est immobilisé par rapport au corps dudit étrier au moyen de vis de fixation et/ou d'une fourchette de blocage.Today, when the doors of a motor vehicle are equipped with locks to condemn the opening, they are increasingly often directly integrated in the handles. For this, each stirrup is traditionally provided with a housing able to receive a complete rotary latch which is immobilized relative to the body of said stirrup at means of fixing screws and / or a locking fork.

Ce type d'agencement présente toutefois l'inconvénient de mettre en jeu un grand nombre de pièces, ce qui s'avère au final particulièrement onéreux tant au point de vue du prix de la matière, qu'en terme de coût de montage.This type of arrangement, however, has the disadvantage of involving a large number of parts, which ultimately proves particularly expensive both in terms of the price of the material, in terms of cost of assembly.

On connaît le document EP 0 646 688 , dans lequel il est prévu de réaliser dans l'étrier un logement apte à recevoir directement le rotor du verrou. Ce logement remplace ainsi le stator.We know the document EP 0 646 688 , in which it is intended to produce in the stirrup a housing adapted to directly receive the lock rotor. This housing thus replaces the stator.

Aussi, le problème technique à résoudre par l'objet de la présente invention, est de proposer un dispositif support pour une poignée d'ouverture et un verrou de condamnation d'une porte notamment de véhicule automobile, selon le préambule de la revendication 1 qui permettrait d'éviter les problèmes de l'état de la technique en procurant notamment une simplification structurelle et une diminution significative des coûts de production et de montage.Also, the technical problem to be solved by the object of the present invention, is to provide a support device for an opening handle and a locking lock of a door including a motor vehicle, according to the preamble of claim 1 which would avoid the problems of the state of the art by providing in particular a structural simplification and a significant decrease in production and assembly costs.

La solution au problème technique posé consiste, selon la présente invention, en ce que le verrou de condamnation et le dispositif support du type précités, présente et les caractéristiques de la partie caractérisante telle que précisée dans la revendication 1.The solution to the technical problem posed, according to the present invention, is that the locking latch and the support device of the aforementioned type present and the characteristics of the characterizing part as specified in claim 1.

Il est entendu que l'invention est applicable aussi bien à une poignée d'ouverture mobile qu'à une poignée fixe, mais aussi à tout type de verrou rotatif composé d'une partie rotor et d'une partie stator.It is understood that the invention is applicable to both a movable opening handle and a fixed handle, but also to any type of rotary latch composed of a rotor portion and a stator portion.

Quoi qu'il en soit, l'invention telle qu'ainsi définie présente l'avantage de réduire le nombre de pièces nécessaires à la réalisation d'un ensemble unitaire regroupant un dispositif support pour poignée de porte, et un verrou de condamnation rotatif.In any event, the invention as thus defined has the advantage of reducing the number of parts necessary for producing a unitary assembly comprising a support device for a door handle, and a rotary locking latch.

Le fait d'intégrer la partie stator du verrou directement dans le dispositif support et de n'avoir à implanter que la partie rotor, plutôt que de monter un verrou complet doté de sa propre partie stator, permet en effet de supprimer une quantité non négligeable de composants internes. On pense ici notamment aux classiques éléments de stator complémentaires du verrou rotatif complet, mais aussi à tous les organes qui sont indispensables audit verrou complet en vue d'une part d'un positionnement précis dans son logement, et d'autre part d'une fixation rigide par rapport au corps du dispositif support.Integrating the stator portion of the lock directly into the support device and having to implant only the rotor part, rather than mounting a complete lock with its own stator part, makes it possible to remove a significant amount internal components. We think here in particular to the conventional complementary stator elements of the complete rotary latch, but also to all the organs that are essential to said complete latch in order to share a precise positioning in its housing, and on the other hand a rigid fixation relative to the body of the support device.

La simplification structurelle qui en résulte génère bien évidement une diminution significative des coûts de production et de montage, mais également un gain notable en terme de poids. Elle procure par ailleurs une bien meilleure tenue mécanique à l'ensemble, ce qui s'avère particulièrement avantageux pour un élément de sécurité aussi important qu'un verrou de porte intégré dans une poignée.The resulting structural simplification obviously generates a significant reduction in production and assembly costs, but also a significant gain in terms of weight. It also provides a much better mechanical strength to the assembly, which is particularly advantageous for a security element as important as a door lock integrated in a handle.

Cette description, donnée à titre d'exemple non limitatif, est destinée à mieux faire comprendre en quoi consiste l'invention et comment elle peut être réalisée. Elle est par ailleurs donnée en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels:

  • La figure 1 illustre en perspective un verrou de condamnation et un dispositif support conforme à l'invention, en cours d'assemblage avec la partie rotor du verrou de condamnation.
  • La figure 2 représente l'ensemble de la figure 1 une fois assemblé, et avant son montage sur un panneau de porte doté d'un trou traversant voué au positionnement du verrou.
  • La figure 3 montre le positionnement du verrou du dispositif support par rapport au panneau de porte, en début de phase de montage.
  • La figure 4 est une vue similaire à la figure 3, mais en fin de phase de montage.
This description, given by way of non-limiting example, is intended to better understand what the invention is and how it can be achieved. It is also given with reference to the appended drawings in which:
  • The figure 1 illustrates in perspective a locking latch and a support device according to the invention, being assembled with the rotor portion of the locking latch.
  • The figure 2 represents the whole of the figure 1 once assembled, and before mounting on a door panel with a through hole dedicated to the positioning of the lock.
  • The figure 3 shows the positioning of the latch of the support device relative to the door panel at the beginning of the mounting phase.
  • The figure 4 is a view similar to the figure 3 but at the end of the assembly phase.

Pour des raisons de clarté, les mêmes éléments ont été désignés par des références identiques. De même, seuls les éléments essentiels pour la compréhension de l'invention ont été représentés, et ceci sans respect de l'échelle et de manière schématique.For the sake of clarity, the same elements have been designated by identical references. Likewise, only the essential elements for understanding the invention have been represented, and this without regard to the scale and in a schematic manner.

La figure 1 illustre un dispositif support 1 qui est voué à équiper une porte 100 de véhicule automobile, afin de servir de socle d'ancrage à une poignée d'ouverture extérieure, ainsi qu'à un verrou de condamnation 10.The figure 1 illustrates a support device 1 which is intended to equip a door 100 of a motor vehicle, in order to serve as anchoring base for an external opening handle, as well as a locking latch 10.

Il est à noter que la poignée n'a pas été représentée sur l'ensemble des figures pour de simples raisons de clarté. On peut cependant préciser que dans ce mode particulier de réalisation, choisi uniquement à titre d'exemple, il s'agit d'une poignée mobile qui est actionnable manuellement depuis l'extérieur du véhicule. Pour cela, elle est articulée au niveau de la face avant du dispositif support 1, qui se situe au premier plan sur la figure 1. L'ensemble est classiquement agencé de manière à ce que la mobilité de la poignée soit en mesure de commander un mécanisme de serrure associé à la porte 100.It should be noted that the handle has not been shown in all the figures for reasons of clarity. However, it can be specified that in this particular embodiment, chosen solely as an example, it is a movable handle that is manually operable from outside the vehicle. For this, it is articulated at the front of the support device 1, which is in the foreground on the figure 1 . The assembly is conventionally arranged so that the mobility of the handle is able to control a lock mechanism associated with the door 100.

Le verrou 10 destiné à condamner l'ouverture de la porte 100 est quant à lui de type rotatif, c'est-à-dire qu'il est composé d'une partie rotor 11 montée mobile en rotation axiale à l'intérieur d'une partie stator 12. Cet organe étant parfaitement connu de l'état de la technique, il ne sera pas décrit davantage ici. On précisera simplement que le verrou 10 est implanté au niveau du dispositif support 1, de telle sorte que l'entrée de clé 13 ménagée à l'extrémité du rotor 11 soit accessible depuis l'extérieur du véhicule automobile.The lock 10 intended to block the opening of the door 100 is in turn rotary type, that is to say it is composed of a rotor portion 11 mounted to rotate axially inside a stator portion 12. This body is well known in the state of the art, it will not be described further here. It will be specified simply that the latch 10 is located at the support device 1, so that the key inlet 13 formed at the end of the rotor 11 is accessible from outside the motor vehicle.

Le dispositif support 1 comprend un logement 2 qui est en mesure de recevoir la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10. La partie stator 12 du verrou 10 est pour sa part constituée par la portion du dispositif support 1, qui délimite le logement 2.The support device 1 comprises a housing 2 which is able to receive the rotor portion 11 of the latch 10. The stator portion 12 of the latch 10 is for its part constituted by the portion of the support device 1, which delimits the housing 2.

A ce stade de la description, il est entendu que le logement 2 peut être constitué par une simple cavité dotée d'au moins une ouverture permettant la mise en place et/ou l'accessibilité à la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10. Cette cavité se doit toutefois de présenter une forme sensiblement cylindrique, étant donné que la portion du dispositif support 1 qui la délimite, a pour fonction de constituer la partie stator 12 du verrou 10, c'est-à-dire de guider la rotation axiale de la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10.At this stage of the description, it is understood that the housing 2 may be constituted by a simple cavity provided with at least one opening allowing the establishment and / or accessibility to the rotor portion 11 of the latch 10. This cavity However, it must have a substantially cylindrical shape, since the portion of the support device 1 which delimits it, has the function of constituting the stator portion 12 of the lock 10, that is to say of guiding the axial rotation of the rotor part 11 of the lock 10.

Selon une particularité préférée de l'invention, le logement 2 présente une forme sensiblement cylindrique qui est ouverte à au moins l'une de ses extrémités axiales. Par ailleurs, le dispositif support 1 comporte des moyens de butée 20 qui sont en mesure de bloquer, en translation axiale, la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10 à l'intérieur dudit logement 2.According to a preferred feature of the invention, the housing 2 has a substantially cylindrical shape which is open at at least one of its axial ends. Furthermore, the support device 1 comprises stop means 20 which are able to block, in axial translation, the rotor portion 11 of the lock 10 inside said housing 2.

La présence des moyens de butée 20 s'avère indispensable pour assurer un maintien omnidirectionnel de la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10, et ainsi garantir que la portion du dispositif support 1, qui délimite le logement 2, soit en mesure de jouer pleinement son rôle de stator.The presence of the abutment means 20 is essential to ensure omnidirectional maintenance of the rotor portion 11 of the lock 10, and thus ensure that the portion of the support device 1, which defines the housing 2, is able to play its full role of stator.

Mais cette caractéristique permet également d'accroître significativement la tenue mécanique de l'ensemble, notamment vis-à-vis d'éventuelles tentatives d'effraction par arrachage ou défoncement de la partie rotor 11. Un tel niveau de sécurité ne peut être atteint avec les agencements de l'état de la technique, étant donné que les verrous complets sont habituellement montés depuis l'extérieur des portes, et qu'il n'est par conséquent pas très compliqué de les retirer dès lors que l'on dispose d'un matériel d'extraction adéquat.However, this characteristic also makes it possible to significantly increase the mechanical strength of the assembly, in particular with respect to possible attempts of burglary by tearing or breaking of the rotor portion 11. Such a level of safety can not be achieved with the arrangements of the state of the art, since the complete locks are usually mounted from the outside of the doors, and it is therefore not very complicated to remove them when one has available adequate extraction equipment.

Quoi qu'il en soit, dans cet exemple de réalisation, ce sont en fait les deux extrémités du logement 2 qui sont ouvertes, puisqu'une ouverture avant est prévue pour assurer l'accès à l'entrée de clé 13 de la partie rotor 11, tandis qu'une ouverture arrière est nécessaire pour permettre le passage d'un classique élément de liaison 14 destiné à être couplé au mécanisme de serrure de la porte 100.Anyway, in this embodiment, it is in fact the two ends of the housing 2 which are open, since a front opening is provided to ensure access to the key inlet 13 of the rotor part. 11, while a rear opening is necessary to allow the passage of a conventional connecting element 14 to be coupled to the lock mechanism of the door 100.

Ainsi qu'on peut le voir clairement toujours sur la figure 1, les moyens de butée 20 sont ici concrètement constitués par des nervures saillantes. Chacune d'entre elles est ménagée à proximité d'une des extrémités ouvertes du logement 2, sur la surface interne de la portion du dispositif support 1 qui délimite ledit logement 2.As can be seen clearly still on the figure 1 the abutment means 20 are here concretely constituted by projecting ribs. Each of them is formed near one of the open ends of the housing 2, on the inner surface of the portion of the support device 1 which delimits said housing 2.

Conformément à l'objet de la présente invention, le logement 2 est défini par la juxtaposition d'au moins deux évidements 3, 4 qui sont respectivement ménagés sur des éléments constitutifs distincts du dispositif support 1, dits éléments porteurs 5, 6 ; chaque élément porteur 5, 6 formant une portion de la partie stator 12 du verrou 10.According to the object of the present invention, the housing 2 is defined by the juxtaposition of at least two recesses 3, 4 which are respectively provided on separate constituent elements of the support device 1, said carrier elements 5, 6; each carrier element 5, 6 forming a portion of the stator portion 12 of the latch 10.

Cette caractéristique avantageuse permet quant à elle de pouvoir monter la partie rotor 11 à l'intérieur du logement 2, même lorsque comme précédemment décrit, le dispositif support 1 est conformé de manière à garantir l'immobilité en translation axiale de ladite partie rotor 11.This advantageous characteristic makes it possible, in turn, to be able to mount the rotor part 11 inside the housing 2, even when, as previously described, the support device 1 is shaped so as to guarantee the immobility in axial translation of said rotor part 11.

L'ensemble est agencé de façon à ce que lors de l'assemblage des différents éléments porteurs 5, 6, les évidements correspondants 3, 4 viennent se positionner en regard les uns des autres, et constituer ainsi le logement 2 dont la forme et les dimensions sont choisies pour maintenir et guider en rotation axiale la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10.The assembly is arranged so that during assembly of the various bearing elements 5, 6, the corresponding recesses 3, 4 are positioned opposite each other, and thus constitute the housing 2 whose shape and shape. dimensions are chosen to maintain and guide in axial rotation the rotor portion 11 of the lock 10.

Conformément à un mode de réalisation actuellement préféré de l'invention, chaque évidement 3, 4 présente sensiblement la forme d'une portion radiale de cylindre, c'est-à-dire une partie de cylindre qui s'étend sur toute la longueur du logement 2 mais qui est délimitée radialement par deux plans passants par l'axe dudit logement 2.According to a presently preferred embodiment of the invention, each recess 3, 4 has substantially the shape of a radial portion of a cylinder, that is to say a part of a cylinder which extends over the entire length of the cylinder. housing 2 but which is delimited radially by two planes passing through the axis of said housing 2.

Cela signifie en d'autres termes que les plans de joints qui séparent les différents éléments porteurs 5, 6 du dispositif support 1, s'étendent de manière sensiblement parallèle à l'axe du logement 2. Une telle configuration permet avantageusement un montage radial de la partie rotor et des éléments porteurs 5, 6.In other words, this means that the joint planes which separate the different bearing elements 5, 6 of the support device 1 extend substantially parallel to the axis of the housing 2. Such a configuration advantageously allows a radial mounting of the rotor part and bearing elements 5, 6.

Il est important de préciser ici que c'est la forme générale du logement 2 qui doit être considérée comme cylindrique, étant entendu que la paroi qui le délimite n'est généralement pas strictement régulière. Cette dernière est en effet sensée guider en rotation et donc épouser au mieux la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10, qui elle-même présente un profil cylindrique jamais totalement constant.It is important to specify here that it is the general form of the housing 2 which must be considered cylindrical, it being understood that the wall which delimits it is generally not strictly regular. The latter is indeed supposed to guide in rotation and thus marry the best part of the rotor 11 of the lock 10, which itself has a cylindrical profile never completely constant.

Ceci étant dit, il apparaît tout à fait envisageable d'utiliser d'autres formes d'évidements 3, 4 complémentaires en alternative au mode de réalisation préféré précédemment décrit. C'est ainsi par exemple que des sections droites de cylindres ou des sections biseautées de cylindres rentrent également dans le cadre de l'invention, même si elles n'autorisent pas un montage radial.This being said, it seems quite possible to use other forms of complementary recesses 3, 4 as an alternative to the preferred embodiment previously described. Thus, for example, straight sections of cylinders or bevelled sections of cylinders are also within the scope of the invention, even if they do not allow radial mounting.

Dans ce mode particulier de réalisation, choisi uniquement à titre d'exemple, le logement 2 est en fait défini par la juxtaposition d'uniquement deux évidements 3, 4 qui sont de formes sensiblement identiques, en l'occurrence hémicylindriques.In this particular embodiment, chosen solely by way of example, the housing 2 is in fact defined by the juxtaposition of only two recesses 3, 4 which are of substantially identical shapes, in this case hemicylindrical.

Cette caractéristique permet de simplifier au maximum la structure du dispositif support 1, et plus généralement celle du système d'ouverture de porte dans son ensemble.This feature makes it possible to simplify as much as possible the structure of the support device 1, and more generally that of the door opening system as a whole.

Selon une autre particularité de l'invention, le dispositif support 1 est également doté de premiers moyens de fixation 30 qui sont chargés de solidariser ensemble les différents éléments porteurs 5, 6.According to another feature of the invention, the support device 1 is also provided with first fixing means 30 which are responsible for securing together the various bearing elements 5, 6.

L'intérêt principal de ces premiers moyens de fixation 30 est de renforcer encore davantage la tenue mécanique de l'ensemble unitaire qui est obtenu en intégrant le verrou de condamnation 10 directement dans le dispositif support 1. Dans cette logique, leur présence peut apparaître facultative.The main advantage of these first fastening means 30 is to further strengthen the mechanical strength of the unitary assembly which is obtained by integrating the locking latch 10 directly into the support device 1. In this logic, their presence may appear optional.

Il existe toutefois des cas de figure dans lesquels la présence des premiers moyens de fixation 30 s'avère obligatoire. C'est précisément le cas dès lors qu'un seul des éléments porteurs 5, 6 est solidarisé à la porte 100. Il est alors essentiel de lier rigidement entre eux tous les éléments constitutifs du dispositif support 1, afin que l'ensemble demeure parfaitement solidaire.However, there are cases in which the presence of the first fastening means 30 is mandatory. This is precisely the case since only one of the carrier elements 5, 6 is secured to the door 100. It is then essential to rigidly bond together all the constituent elements of the support device 1, so that the assembly remains perfectly. solidarity.

Quoi qu'il en soit, dans l'exemple de réalisation des figures 1 à 4, les premiers moyens de fixation 30 sont constitués par quatre goupilles 31 aptes à être emboîtées à force dans des trous 32 qui sont ménagés dans les différents éléments porteurs 5, 6, et qui sont destinés à être positionnés en vis-à-vis.Anyway, in the exemplary embodiment of Figures 1 to 4 , the first fastening means 30 are constituted by four pins 31 adapted to be force-fitted into holes 32 which are formed in the various bearing elements 5, 6, and which are intended to be positioned vis-à-vis.

Selon une autre particularité de l'invention, le dispositif support 1 est par ailleurs pourvu de seconds moyens de fixation 40 qui sont quant à eux voués à solidariser au moins un des éléments porteurs 5, 6 à la porte 100.According to another feature of the invention, the support device 1 is also provided with second fastening means 40 which are in turn dedicated to secure at least one of the carrier elements 5, 6 to the door 100.

De manière particulièrement avantageuse, les seconds moyens de fixation 40 disposent d'au moins une vis d'assemblage qui est apte, d'une part, à être insérée dans un trou ménagé à travers un panneau 101 de la porte 100, et d'autre part, à coopérer avec un alésage taraudé 41 ménagé dans un élément porteur 5 du dispositif support 1.Particularly advantageously, the second fixing means 40 have at least one assembly screw which is able, on the one hand, to be inserted into a hole formed through a panel 101 of the door 100, and to on the other hand, to cooperate with a tapped bore 41 formed in a carrier element 5 of the support device 1.

Dans cet exemple de réalisation, les seconds moyens de fixation 40 ne comportent qu'une vis qui n'a pas été pas représentée, mais qui est spécifiquement destinée à solidariser l'élément porteur 5 au panneau de porte 101.In this embodiment, the second fixing means 40 comprise only one screw which has not been shown, but which is specifically intended to secure the carrier element 5 to the door panel 101.

Conformément à une autre caractéristique avantageuse, les seconds moyens de fixation 40 comprennent en outre au moins une portion d'ancrage qui est en mesure, d'une part, d'être insérée dans un trou de positionnement 102 ménagé à travers un panneau 101 de la porte 100, suivant une direction d'insertion sensiblement perpendiculaire au panneau de porte 101, et d'autre part, à s'emboîter avec ledit panneau de porte 101 suivant une direction d'emboîtement sensiblement orthogonale à la direction d'insertion.According to another advantageous characteristic, the second fixing means 40 further comprise at least one anchoring portion which is able, on the one hand, to be inserted into a positioning hole 102 formed through a panel 101 of the door 100, in an insertion direction substantially perpendicular to the door panel 101, and secondly, to engage with said door panel 101 in a direction of interlocking substantially orthogonal to the direction of insertion.

De préférence, une portion d'ancrage est ménagée au niveau de la partie stator 12 du verrou 10. C'est précisément le cas avec l'exemple de réalisation des figures 1 à 4.Preferably, an anchoring portion is provided at the stator portion 12 of the latch 10. This is precisely the case with the embodiment of FIGS. Figures 1 to 4 .

La portion d'ancrage se compose tout d'abord d'un épaulement 43 qui s'étend tout autour de la partie rotor 11 du verrou 10, et qui est pour cela ménagé à la fois sur l'élément porteur 5 et sur l'élément porteur 6.The anchoring portion firstly consists of a shoulder 43 which extends all around the rotor portion 11 of the lock 10, and which is therefore provided on both the carrier member 5 and on the carrier element 6.

La portion d'ancrage est également dotée d'une patte principale 44 qui est ménagée sur l'élément porteur 6, qui est solidaire de l'épaulement 43, et qui s'étend parallèlement à la direction d'emboîtement de ladite portion d'ancrage.The anchoring portion is also provided with a main tab 44 which is formed on the carrier element 6, which is integral with the shoulder 43, and which extends parallel to the interlocking direction of said portion of anchorage.

Enfin, la portion d'ancrage est en outre pourvue de deux pattes secondaires 45, 46 qui sont ménagées sur l'élément porteur 5, qui sont solidaires de l'épaulement 43, et qui s'étendent perpendiculairement à la direction d'emboîtement de ladite portion d'ancrage.Finally, the anchoring portion is further provided with two secondary tabs 45, 46 which are provided on the carrier element 5, which are integral with the shoulder 43, and which extend perpendicular to the direction of interlocking. said anchoring portion.

Ainsi qu'on peut le voir plus clairement sur la figure 2, le trou de positionnement 102 présente une forme oblongue qui correspond sensiblement aux formes cumulées de l'épaulement 43, de la patte principale 44 et des deux pattes secondaires 45, 46, conformément à la figure 3.As can be seen more clearly on the figure 2 , the positioning hole 102 has an oblong shape which corresponds substantially to the shapes of the shoulder 43, the main leg 44 and the two secondary legs 45, 46, in accordance with the figure 3 .

L'ensemble est agencé de manière à ce qu'une fois insérée dans le trou de positionnement 102, la portion d'ancrage puisse s'emboîter sur le panneau de porte 101. Conformément cette fois à la figure 4, la patte principale 44 et les deux pattes secondaires 45, 46 se positionnent alors en regard du panneau 101, ce qui permet de constituer un nouveau point de solidarisation du dispositif support 1 sur la porte 100.The assembly is arranged so that once inserted into the positioning hole 102, the anchoring portion can fit on the door panel 101. In this case the figure 4 , the main tab 44 and the two secondary tabs 45, 46 are then positioned opposite the panel 101, which allows to constitute a new point of attachment of the support device 1 on the door 100.

Bien entendu, l'invention concerne plus généralement tout véhicule automobile doté d'au moins un verrou de condamnation 10 et un dispositif support 1 tel que précédemment décrit.Of course, the invention more generally relates to any motor vehicle having at least one locking lock 10 and a support device 1 as previously described.
