Definitions
- the present invention relates to a lining of a piece of interior equipment of a motor vehicle, of the type having an interior wall intended to be placed facing an occupant of the vehicle, the lining comprising means for absorbing impact energy arranged outside. of the inner wall.
- the invention applies in particular to the interior trim of doors of motor vehicles.
- US-B-3 989 275 discloses a lining of the aforementioned type, comprising an inner wall placed facing an occupant of the vehicle and ribs for absorbing mechanical impact energy delimiting compartments directed towards the outside of the vehicle.
- These ribs are intended to reduce the risk of injury to an occupant of the vehicle during a side impact against the vehicle.
- An object of the invention is therefore to provide a lining for a piece of interior equipment of a motor vehicle which increases the available storage volume, without reducing safety in the event of an impact, and without increasing the size of the part.
- the subject of the invention is a packing of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the means for absorbing impact energy comprise an object storage box comprising:
- the inner wall defining an access opening to the box.
- the lining according to the invention may comprise one or more of the following characteristics, taken alone or in any technically possible combination:
- the access opening has a closed contour;
- the access opening is closed at least partially by a movable panel between a position for releasing the access opening and a position for closing the access opening;
- peripheral wall defines a peripheral line of weakness
- the peripheral line is formed by a step
- the storage box includes an inner projecting part from the bottom, spaced from the peripheral wall;
- the projecting part extends opposite the movable panel.
- the invention also relates to a piece of interior equipment of a motor vehicle, of the type comprising a frame comprising an interior panel and an exterior panel defining an internal volume, the interior wall of the lining being fixed to the interior panel and the box being arranged in the internal volume.
- the part according to the invention can comprise one or more of the following characteristics, taken in isolation or in any technically possible combination;
- FIG. 1 is a perspective side view of a first vehicle door according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a simplified sectional view along the horizontal plane H-II of Figure 1, before a side impact against the vehicle;
- FIG. 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, after a side impact against the vehicle;
- FIG. 4 is a view similar to Figure 2 of a second door according to the invention.
- FIG. 5 is a view similar to Figure 3 of the second door according to the invention.
- the orientations are the usual orientations of a motor vehicle. So the terms “left”, “right”, “superior”,
- FIGS. 1 to 3 A first door 10 according to the invention is shown in FIGS. 1 to 3.
- this door 10 comprises an exterior panel 12, an interior panel 14 and an interior lining 16 fixed to the interior panel and comprising means 18 d absorption of mechanical shock energy.
- the outer panel 12 is for example made from sheet metal and has an externally curved shape.
- the inner panel 14 is also made from sheet metal. It is fixed on its periphery to the outer panel 12 and defines with this panel 12 an internal volume 20 visible in FIG. 2.
- the interior panel 14 further delimits a central opening 22 opening into the passenger compartment of the vehicle and opening into the internal volume 20.
- the lining 16 comprises an interior wall 24 fixed to the interior panel 14 and accessories 26 supported by the wall 24.
- the inner wall 24 is for example made from plastic material covered by an appearance skin. It is attached to an inner surface of the inner panel 14 around the central opening 22, to close this opening.
- the accessories 26 in this example include an armrest 28 and an operating handle 30 which protrude internally relative to the internal wall 24.
- the means 18 for absorbing mechanical impact energy comprise a storage box 32, disposed in the interior volume 20 and opening in the interior wall 24.
- the box 32 comprises a substantially vertical bottom 34 located in the interior volume 20, a peripheral wall 36 deformable in the event of impact, connecting the bottom 34 to the interior wall 24, a rib of support 38, and a closure panel 40.
- the box 32 has a substantially rectangular vertical section. It is arranged under the armrest 28, towards the rear of the door 10, facing the hip of an occupant of the vehicle when the latter is seated in a seat opposite door 10.
- the bottom 34 is spaced transversely from the outer panel 12, in the absence of impact.
- the peripheral wall 36 has a closed peripheral contour of substantially rectangular shape. It defines an interior volume 42 for storing objects which opens into the passenger compartment of the vehicle through an opening 44 for access to the box 32.
- the opening 44 has a closed contour.
- the peripheral wall 36 delimits, substantially midway between the access opening 44 and the bottom 34, a peripheral weakening step 46 extending along a contour of the wall 36. This step 46 forms a line of weakness which allows the transverse deformation of the peripheral wall 36.
- the support rib 38 extends vertically between a lower object support surface 48, situated horizontally on the peripheral wall 36 and an upper end 50 spaced from an upper horizontal surface 52 of the peripheral wall 36.
- the support rib 38 projects transversely towards the interior of the vehicle from the bottom 34 over substantially the entire thickness of the interior volume 42 between the bottom 34 and the access opening 44.
- the inner wall 24, the peripheral wall 36, the bottom 34 and the rib 38 are made of one piece.
- the closure panel 40 has a section greater than that of the opening 44. It is articulated on the inner wall 24 along a vertical axis, to be movable between a position for closing the opening 44, in which it is disposed substantially parallel to the interior wall 24, and a position for accessing the interior volume 42, in which it is disposed away from the opening 44.
- the storage box 32 can be used to store objects in the interior volume 42, bearing on the lower surface 48.
- the occupant of the vehicle is thrown against the closure panel 40, which displaces this panel 40 towards the outside and applies a force to the rib 38.
- the deformation of the rib 38 makes it possible to expel the occupant from the crash zone without applying a strong deceleration to it, since the bottom 34 is located away from the outer panel 12.
- the exterior panel 12 moves towards the interior panel 14.
- the thickness of the interior volume 20 is thus reduced until the exterior panel 12 presses on the bottom 34 of the box 32.
- the peripheral wall 36 then deforms along the peripheral step 46 by folding around this step 46, which absorbs part of the mechanical impact energy.
- the safety of the occupant is thus ensured by the energy absorption means 18 formed by the box 32, while allowing the use of the volume occupied by these means 18 as storage space.
- the second door 60 shown in Figures 4 and 5 differs from the first door 10 in that the bottom 34 is fixed to the interior panel 12 in the absence of impact.
- the box 32 is also devoid of support rib 38.
- this second door 60 in the event of an impact is analogous to the operation of the first door 10.
- the mechanical impact energy is absorbed during movement of the exterior panel 12 towards the exterior panel 14 by deformation of the peripheral wall 36 along of the weakening line 46.
