Description

Télécommande d'engin mobile, en particulier engin de travaux publics, engin agricole ou de manutention Remote control of mobile machinery, in particular construction machinery, agricultural machinery or handling equipment
La présente invention concerne une télécommande d'engin mobile, en particulier engin de travaux publics, engin agricole ou de manutention.The present invention relates to a remote control of mobile machinery, in particular public works machinery, agricultural machinery or handling.
Il est connu, notamment du document DE 34 31 523, d'utiliser une télécommande d'engin mobile comportant :It is known, particularly from document DE 34 31 523, to use a mobile equipment remote control comprising:
- un corps de télécommande, - un levier solidaire d'une poignée destiné à être prise en main par un utilisateur,a remote control body; a lever secured to a handle intended to be handled by a user;
- des moyens de liaison du levier au corps permettant un mouvement du levier par rapport au corps selon au moins un axe,means for connecting the lever to the body allowing movement of the lever relative to the body along at least one axis,
- des moyens de détection, de type sans contact, du mouvement relatif du levier par rapport au corps de la télécommande, les signaux issus des moyens de détection étant destinés à la commande d'un organe de l'engin mobile.- Non-contact type detection means, the relative movement of the lever relative to the body of the remote control, the signals from the detection means being intended for the control of a body of the mobile machine.
Une telle télécommande doit être étanche pour assurer un fonctionnement correct pendant la durée de vie de l'appareil. L'étanchéité de la poignée est particulièrement importante pour des cabines d'engins mobiles destinées à être lavées à l'eau, ou soumises aux intempéries, dans le cas de cabines ouvertes.Such a remote control must be waterproof to ensure proper operation during the life of the device. The tightness of the handle is particularly important for cabins of mobile machinery intended to be washed with water, or subjected to the weather, in the case of open cabins.
Il est connu de réaliser l'étanchéité entre les différentes pièces mobiles de la télécommande en disposant un soufflet souple et étanche, fixé d'une part au corps et d'autre part à la poignée et au levier solidaire de cette poignée.It is known to achieve sealing between the various moving parts of the remote control by providing a flexible and waterproof bellows, fixed on the one hand to the body and on the other hand to the handle and the lever secured to this handle.
Une telle solution permet effectivement d'assurer l'étanchéité de la télécommande.Such a solution effectively makes it possible to seal the remote control.
Il est également connu de réaliser l'enrobage des pièces électriques des télécommandes pour éviter que des liquides pénétrant dans le corps de la télécommande n'endommage les composants ou ne causent des courts-circuits.It is also known to coat the electrical parts of the remote controls to prevent liquids entering the body of the remote control damaging the components or causing short circuits.
Il apparaît toutefois que la mise en place d'un soufflet complique la réalisation de la télécommande. En outre, le soufflet peut être partiellement enlevé de sa position de protection, ou usé, et permettre dans ces conditions le passage de liquides. L'enrobage de résine impose pour sa part également des étapes complémentaires dans la réalisation de la télécommande, avant la mise en place des composants électrique sur cette télécommande.It appears however that the establishment of a bellows complicates the realization of the remote control. In addition, the bellows can be partially removed from its protective position, or worn, and allow in these conditions the passage of liquids. The resin coating also imposes additional steps in the realization of the remote control, before the introduction of electrical components on the remote control.
Le problème technique qui se pose est donc de fournir une télécommande du type précité qui garantisse l'étanchéité de la télécommande, dans les conditions normales d'utilisation, sans présenter de pièce d'usure additionnelle, et en ne complexifiant pas la réalisation de la télécommande.The technical problem that arises is therefore to provide a remote control of the aforementioned type which guarantees the tightness of the remote control, under normal conditions of use, without presenting additional wear parts, and by not complicating the implementation of the remote control.
A cet effet, la solution selon l'invention concerne une télécommande d'engin mobile du type décrit ci-dessus, caractérisée en ce que le corps de télécommande comporte une paroi étanche, séparant d'une part les moyens de détection qui sont situés d'un premier côté de la paroi étanche, et d'autre part le levier et les moyens de liaison du levier au corps qui sont situés d'un second côté de la paroi étanche.For this purpose, the solution according to the invention relates to a remote control of mobile machine of the type described above, characterized in that the remote control body comprises a sealed wall, separating on the one hand the detection means which are located d a first side of the sealed wall, and secondly the lever and the lever connecting means to the body which are located on a second side of the sealed wall.
Ces dispositions permettent de garantir l'étanchéité du corps de la télécommande sans nécessiter de pièce d'usure de type soufflet. Elles permettent de séparer la partie mécanique de la télécommande comportant des pièces mobiles de la partie électronique de détection, les deux parties étant situées de part et d'autre d'une paroi étanche.These provisions make it possible to guarantee the tightness of the body of the remote control without requiring a wear part of the bellows type. They allow to separate the mechanical part of the remote control comprising moving parts of the electronic detection part, the two parts being located on either side of a sealed wall.
Cette étanchéité peut être assurée dans le cas ou le corps de télécommande comporte en lui-même un boîtier fermé, ou dans le cas ou le corps est fixé sur une paroi de support avec une ouverture que traverse le corps, la paroi étanche du corps assurant une continuité de l'étanchéité avec la paroi de support.This sealing can be ensured in the case where the remote control body itself comprises a closed housing, or in the case where the body is fixed on a support wall with an opening through which the body passes, the sealed wall of the body ensuring a continuity of the seal with the support wall.
Selon un mode de réalisation, la paroi étanche comprend un renfoncement permettant de loger la base du levier. Le renfoncement fait saillie du premier côté de la paroi étanche.According to one embodiment, the sealed wall comprises a recess for housing the base of the lever. The recess protrudes from the first side of the watertight wall.
Avantageusement, les moyens de détection sont positionnés sur les parois du renfoncement, du premier côté de la paroi étanche.Advantageously, the detection means are positioned on the walls of the recess, the first side of the sealed wall.
Le renfoncement, et le positionnement des moyens de détection sur la paroi du levier permettent d'obtenir une détection efficace du mouvement du levier, selon un ou plusieurs axes, tout en garantissant l'étanchéité. En effet, la distance entre les moyens de détection et la base du levier est faible, ces éléments étant simplement séparés par les parois du renfoncement, faisant partie de la paroi étanche. Avantageusement, les moyens de détection comprennent au moins un capteur à effet Hall, et le levier comporte un aimant permanent. Selon un mode de réalisation, l'aimant permanent est positionné au niveau de la base du levier, située à proximité du corps.The recess, and the positioning of the detection means on the wall of the lever allow to obtain an effective detection of the movement of the lever, along one or more axes, while ensuring the seal. Indeed, the distance between the detection means and the base of the lever is small, these elements being simply separated by the walls of the recess, forming part of the sealed wall. Advantageously, the detection means comprise at least one Hall effect sensor, and the lever comprises a permanent magnet. According to one embodiment, the permanent magnet is positioned at the base of the lever, located near the body.
Avantageusement, la paroi étanche délimite au moins en partie un compartiment formé dans le corps dans lequel sont logés les moyens de détection. Un tel compartiment permet une protection des composants, ce compartiment pouvant être fermé ou non.Advantageously, the sealed wall defines at least in part a compartment formed in the body in which the detection means are housed. Such a compartment allows protection of components, this compartment can be closed or not.
Avantageusement, le compartiment délimité par une paroi étanche est rempli au moins partiellement de résine.Advantageously, the compartment delimited by a sealed wall is at least partially filled with resin.
Selon un mode de réalisation, la télécommande comporte des moyens de guidage de câbles ou conducteurs ménageant un parcours de guidage contournant la paroi étanche.According to one embodiment, the remote control comprises means for guiding cables or conductors providing a guide course bypassing the sealed wall.
Cette disposition permet de réaliser le passage des câbles ou conducteurs sans nuire à l'étanchéité recherchée pour les moyens de détection. Selon un mode de réalisation, les moyens de liaison sont logés dans le renfoncement ménagé dans la paroi étanche.This arrangement allows the passage of cables or conductors without harming the desired sealing for the detection means. According to one embodiment, the connecting means are housed in the recess formed in the sealed wall.
Avantageusement, la télécommande comporte de plus des moyens de retour à l'équilibre du levier.Advantageously, the remote control further comprises means for returning to the equilibrium of the lever.
Selon un mode de réalisation, la télécommande comporte des moyens de protection destinés à éviter le pincement d'un câble ou d'un conducteur entre le levier ou les moyens de liaison et le corps, ou avec les moyens de retour à l'équilibre du levier.According to one embodiment, the remote control comprises protection means intended to prevent the pinching of a cable or a conductor between the lever or the connecting means and the body, or with the means of returning to the equilibrium of the the sink.
Selon un mode de réalisation, les moyens de liaison forment une liaison rotule. La présente invention concerne également un procédé de fabrication d'une télécommande d'engin mobile, en particulier engin de travaux publics, engin agricole ou de manutention tel que décrite précédemment, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une étape consistant à injecter de la résine à l'état liquide ou pâteux dans un espace délimité au moins partiellement par une paroi étanche.According to one embodiment, the connecting means form a ball joint. The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a remote control of mobile machinery, in particular public works machinery, agricultural machinery or handling as described above, characterized in that it comprises a step of injecting resin in the liquid or pasty state in a space delimited at least partially by a sealed wall.
Cette disposition est rendue possible par le fait que le corps comporte une paroi étanche. Il est ainsi possible de réaliser une injection de résine directement dans la télécommande, ce qui évite de réaliser une première étape d'enrobage des composants de résine dans un premier contenant, puis de séparer les composants du moule une fois la résine durcie, et enfin de les placer sur la télécommande. II suffit en effet d'injecter la résine directement sur la paroi étanche, en complétant éventuellement la délimitation de l'espace à injecter par la paroi étanche avec des parois temporaires, retirées après l'injection si la paroi ne forme pas un compartiment présentant une forme concave. De toute façon, l'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description qui suit, en référence au dessin schématique annexé, représentant à titre d'exemple non limitatif, un mode de réalisation d'une télécommande appareil selon l'invention.This arrangement is made possible by the fact that the body has a sealed wall. It is thus possible to perform a resin injection directly into the remote control, which avoids performing a first step of coating the resin components in a first container, then separating the components of the mold once the resin has hardened, and finally to place them on the remote control. It suffices to inject the resin directly onto the sealed wall, possibly completing the delimitation of the space to be injected by the sealed wall with temporary walls, removed after the injection if the wall does not form a compartment presenting a concave shape. In any case, the invention will be better understood with the aid of the description which follows, with reference to the appended schematic drawing, representing by way of nonlimiting example, an embodiment of a remote control apparatus according to the invention.
La figure 1 est une vue en perspective d'une télécommande selon l'invention, vu de dessus.Figure 1 is a perspective view of a remote control according to the invention, seen from above.
La figure 2 est une vue en perspective de la télécommande de figure 1 , vue de dessous.Figure 2 is a perspective view of the remote control of Figure 1, seen from below.
La figure 3 est une vue en perspective éclatée, du corps, les moyens de liaison et du levier. La figure 4 est une vue en perspective, de dessous, du corps.Figure 3 is an exploded perspective view of the body, the connecting means and the lever. Figure 4 is a perspective view, from below, of the body.
Ainsi que représenté sur les figures 1 à 4, une télécommande d'engin mobile selon l'invention comporte :As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, a mobile equipment remote control according to the invention comprises:
- un corps de télécommande 2,a remote control body 2,
- un levier 3 solidaire d'une poignée non représentée destinée à être prise en main par un utilisateur,a lever 3 integral with a handle (not shown) intended to be grasped by a user,

- des moyens de détection 5 du mouvement relatif du levier 3 par rapport au corps 2 de la télécommande, les signaux issus des moyens de détection étant destinés à la commande d'un organe de l'engin mobile, extérieur à la télécommande.means for detecting the relative movement of the lever 3 with respect to the body 2 of the remote control, the signals coming from the detection means being intended for the control of a member of the mobile machine, outside the remote control.
Le corps 2 de télécommande comporte au moins un compartiment 7 délimité par une paroi étanche 8 dans lequel sont logés les moyens de détection 5, qui sont de type sans contact. La paroi étanche constitue la paroi supérieure du corps 2. La paroi étanche constitue également les parois latérales du corps.The remote control body 2 comprises at least one compartment 7 delimited by a sealed wall 8 in which are housed the detection means 5, which are of the non-contact type. The sealed wall constitutes the upper wall of the body 2. The sealed wall also constitutes the side walls of the body.
Le compartiment 7 est destiné à être fermé par un couvercle non représenté, pouvant être vissé sur la paroi 8, et permettant de compléter l'étanchéité. Les moyens de détection comprennent des capteurs à effet Hall 5, qui coopèrent avec un aimant permanent 6 logé au niveau de la base du levier 3, située à proximité du corps.The compartment 7 is intended to be closed by a cover not shown, which can be screwed onto the wall 8, and to complete the seal. The detection means comprise Hall effect sensors 5, which cooperate with a permanent magnet 6 housed at the base of the lever 3, located near the body.
La paroi 8 du corps 2 accueillant le levier 3 comprend un renfoncement 9 permettant de loger les moyens de liaison 4 entre le corps 2 et le levier 3, ainsi que la base du levier 3 comprenant l'aimant 6.The wall 8 of the body 2 accommodating the lever 3 comprises a recess 9 for accommodating the connecting means 4 between the body 2 and the lever 3, as well as the base of the lever 3 comprising the magnet 6.
Les moyens de détection 5 sont positionnés sur les parois intérieures du renfoncement, du côté de la paroi intérieure du corps 2, c'est-à- dire du côté du compartiment 7. Dans le mode de réalisation représenté, le levier est destiné à être mobile suivant deux axes de rotation A et B, orientés sensiblement perpendiculairement l'un à l'autre. Les axes de rotations A et B sont orientés sensiblement perpendiculairement aux parois du renfoncement, le renfoncement 9 présentant une section rectangulaire, vu dans un plan perpendiculaire à l'axe du levier.The detection means 5 are positioned on the inner walls of the recess, on the side of the inner wall of the body 2, that is to say on the side of the compartment 7. In the embodiment shown, the lever is intended to be movable along two axes of rotation A and B, oriented substantially perpendicular to each other. The rotational axes A and B are oriented substantially perpendicular to the walls of the recess, the recess 9 having a rectangular section, seen in a plane perpendicular to the axis of the lever.
Sur chacune des quatre faces 10 du renfoncement perpendiculaires à la face supérieure du corps 3 est disposé un capteur 5 a effet Hall. Ainsi, deux capteurs par axe de rotation du levier sont utilisés, assurant la redondance des signaux de commande émis. De façon avantageuse, l'aimant 6 situé dans la base du levier 3 peut être orienté de façon à ce que l'axe entre son pôle nord et son pôle sud soit dans l'axe du levier 3.On each of the four faces 10 of the recess perpendicular to the upper face of the body 3 is disposed a Hall effect sensor 5. Thus, two sensors per axis of rotation of the lever are used, ensuring the redundancy of the transmitted control signals. Advantageously, the magnet 6 located in the base of the lever 3 can be oriented so that the axis between its north pole and its south pole is in the axis of the lever 3.
La télécommande comporte de plus des moyens de retour à l'équilibre du levier. Les moyens de retour à l'équilibre du levier comprennent une noix 12, mobile en translation sur le levier, soumise à l'action de moyens élastiques constitués par un ressort de compression non représenté, prenant appui d'une part sur la noix et d'autre part sur un manchon 14 introduit sur le levier et solidaire de celui-ci. Les moyens de retour à l'équilibre comportent un élément 15 de forme concave sensiblement en cône inversé, disposé dans un logement 16 de la face extérieure du corps autour du renfoncement 9 délimité par une paroi périphérique 17.The remote control further comprises means for returning to the equilibrium of the lever. The equilibrium return means of the lever comprise a nut 12, movable in translation on the lever, subjected to the action of elastic means constituted by a not shown compression spring, bearing on the one hand on the nut and d on the other hand on a sleeve 14 introduced on the lever and secured thereto. The equilibrium return means comprise an element 15 of concave shape substantially inverted cone disposed in a housing 16 of the outer face of the body around the recess 9 delimited by a peripheral wall 17.
La noix 12, sous l'action du ressort, coopère avec la surface de l'élément de forme concave 15, pour assurer le retour à une position d'équilibre du levier 3, sensiblement perpendiculaire au plan de la paroi supérieure du corps 2.The nut 12, under the action of the spring, cooperates with the surface of the concave element 15, to ensure the return to a position of equilibrium lever 3, substantially perpendicular to the plane of the upper wall of the body 2.
Le manchon comprend de plus une jupe 18 située au dessus et recouvrant au moins partiellement l'élément concave 15, la noix 12 et le ressort.The sleeve further comprises a skirt 18 located above and at least partially covering the concave element 15, the nut 12 and the spring.
Cette jupe 18 constitue un moyen de protection destiné à éviter le pincement de câbles ou de fils conducteurs entre le levier ou les moyens de liaison et le corps, ou avec des moyens de retour à l'équilibre du levier.This skirt 18 constitutes a protection means intended to prevent pinching of cables or conductive wires between the lever or the connecting means and the body, or with means for returning the lever to equilibrium.
En effet, une télécommande comporte de façon courante des câbles ou de fils conducteurs reliant des éléments de contrôle notamment des boutons, situés sur la poignée, à des organes extérieurs à la télécommande.Indeed, a remote control commonly includes cables or conductors son connecting control elements including buttons on the handle, to external organs remote control.
La télécommande comporte également des moyens de guidage des câbles ou conducteurs constitués par des évidements de guidage 19, 20 ménagés sur la paroi extérieure du compartiment 7. Ainsi, le passage des câbles ou conducteurs ne nuit pas à l'étanchéité recherchée du compartiment comportant les moyens de détection 5.The remote control also comprises means for guiding the cables or conductors formed by guide recesses 19, 20 formed on the outer wall of the compartment 7. Thus, the passage of the cables or conductors does not affect the desired sealing of the compartment comprising the detection means 5.
Les moyens de liaison 4 du levier 3 et du corps sont constitués par un organe creux dont la forme extérieure est sensiblement complémentaire de la forme du renfoncement 9, pour assurer le maintien en position de l'organe par rapport au corps, l'organe comportant un logement 22 avec une ouverture délimité par un bord de retenue 23, le logement recevant la base du levier, qui comporte une portion terminale 24 de dimensions supérieures à l'ouverture du logement formant avec le logement une liaison de type liaison rotule. Avantageusement, la liaison permet une rotation selon les deux axes A et B, mais pas de rotation selon un axe confondu avec l'axe du levier. Cette disposition peut être obtenue en utilisant une portion terminale présentant une section perpendiculaire à l'axe du levier dissymétrique, notamment ovale, correspondant à une section également dissymétrique du logement.The connection means 4 of the lever 3 and the body are constituted by a hollow member whose outer shape is substantially complementary to the shape of the recess 9, to ensure the position of the member relative to the body, the member comprising a housing 22 with an opening defined by a retaining edge 23, the housing receiving the base of the lever, which has an end portion 24 of greater dimensions than the opening of the housing forming with the housing a connection type ball joint. Advantageously, the connection allows a rotation along the two axes A and B, but no rotation along an axis coincident with the axis of the lever. This arrangement can be obtained by using an end portion having a section perpendicular to the axis of the asymmetrical lever, in particular oval, corresponding to a section also asymmetrical housing.
Le procédé de fabrication d'une télécommande telle que décrite ci- dessus, comporte une étape consistant à injecter de la résine 25 à l'état liquide ou pâteux dans le compartiment 7. Le compartiment 3 est ainsi rempli au moins partiellement de résine. Selon une variante de l'invention non représentée, une télécommande, destinée par exemple à être fixé sur un panneau de commande pour une grue, comprend un corps fixé sur une paroi de support, faisant partie du panneau de commande, avec une ouverture que traverse le corps. Dans ces conditions, le corps ne comporte pas de boîtier fermé. La paroi étanche du corps assure toutefois une continuité de l'étanchéité avec la paroi de support qui ferme le tableau de commande.The method of manufacturing a remote control as described above, comprises a step of injecting the resin 25 in the liquid or pasty state in the compartment 7. The compartment 3 is thus at least partially filled with resin. According to a variant of the invention not shown, a remote control, intended for example to be fixed on a control panel for a crane, includes a body attached to a support wall, forming part of the control panel, with an opening through which the body passes. Under these conditions, the body does not have a closed housing. The sealed wall of the body however ensures a continuity of sealing with the support wall which closes the control panel.
Comme il va de soi, l'invention ne se limite pas à la forme de réalisation préférentielle décrite ci-dessus, à titre d'exemples non limitatif ; elle en embrasse au contraire toutes les variantes. It goes without saying that the invention is not limited to the preferred embodiment described above, by way of non-limiting example; on the contrary, it embraces all variants.
