Description

L'invention concerne, de façon générale, le domaine des appareillages électriques.The invention relates generally to the field of electrical equipment.

Plus précisément, l'invention concerne un dispositif de branchement électrique à configurations multiples comprenant une prise présentant une face avant et une fiche équipée d'un cordon électrique, la face avant de la prise étant dotée d'un boîtier d'étanchéité permettant sélectivement un branchement étanche de la fiche dans cette prise et comprenant un volet et un capot percé d'une ouverture dimensionnée pour permettre le passage de la fiche, le volet étant mobile entre des positions ouverte et fermée dans lesquelles, respectivement, il libère et obture de façon étanche l'ouverture du capot, et le boîtier comprenant deux joints d'étanchéité respectivement installés sur le capot et sur le volet et coopérant pour enserrer le cordon de façon étanche en position fermée du volet.More specifically, the invention relates to a multi-configuration electrical connection device comprising a socket having a front face and a plug equipped with an electrical cord, the front face of the socket being provided with a sealing case that selectively allows a tight connection of the plug in this socket and comprising a flap and a bonnet pierced with an opening sized to allow the passage of the plug, the flap being movable between open and closed positions in which, respectively, it releases and seals sealing the opening of the cover, and the housing comprising two seals respectively installed on the cover and the flap and cooperating to grip the bead tightly in the closed position of the flap.

Un tel dispositif est notamment connu de l'homme du métier par le document de brevet FR 2 823 603 .Such a device is in particular known to those skilled in the art by the patent document FR 2 823 603 .

Grâce à ce dispositif, il est possible de rendre étanche une prise dans laquelle est engagée une fiche sans avoir besoin ni de débrancher la fiche, ni a fortiori de démonter le cordon par rapport à la fiche.With this device, it is possible to seal a socket in which is engaged a plug without the need to disconnect the plug, let alone remove the cord relative to the plug.

Néanmoins, ce dispositif connu présente une structure spécifique, de sorte que la fonction d'étanchéité qu'il remplit n'est disponible qu'à l'emplacement où ce dispositif a été prévu et monté.Nevertheless, this known device has a specific structure, so that the sealing function that it fills is available only at the location where this device was provided and mounted.

La présente invention, qui se situe dans ce contexte, a pour but de surmonter cette contrainte.The present invention, which is in this context, aims to overcome this constraint.

A cette fin, le dispositif de l'invention, par ailleurs conforme à la définition générique qu'en donne le préambule ci-dessus, est essentiellement caractérisé en ce que le boîtier prend la forme d'un accessoire sélectivement monté de façon amovible sur la face avant de la prise, et en ce que le volet est monté mobile sur le capot du boîtier.To this end, the device of the invention, furthermore in accordance with the generic definition given in the preamble above, is essentially characterized in that the housing takes the form of an accessory selectively removably mounted on the front face of the socket, and in that the flap is mounted movably on the housing cover.

Grâce à cet agencement, il devient possible de conférer une fonction d'étanchéité à un dispositif qui n'en était pas a priori pourvu.With this arrangement, it becomes possible to confer a sealing function to a device that was not a priori provided.

Le dispositif de branchement de l'invention peut aussi avantageusement comprendre un enjoliveur fixé de façon étanche sur la face avant de la prise et présentant une embase sur laquelle le boîtier est monté de façon amovible.The connecting device of the invention may also advantageously comprise a hubcap sealingly attached to the front face of the socket and having a base on which the housing is mounted removably.

Dans ce cas, il est possible de prévoir que le boîtier présente une base distante des joints d'étanchéité, et que cette base et l'embase de l'enjoliveur soient de forme cylindrique et portent des reliefs respectifs et complémentaires formant ensemble une liaison à baïonnette qui permet de les accoupler.In this case, it is possible to provide that the housing has a base remote from the seals, and that this base and the base of the hubcap are of cylindrical shape and bear respective and complementary reliefs together forming a connection to bayonet that allows them to be coupled.

L'embase de l'enjoliveur est par exemple en saillie et présente un diamètre interne supérieur au diamètre externe de la base du boîtier.The base of the hubcap is for example projecting and has an internal diameter greater than the outer diameter of the base of the housing.

Par ailleurs, l'enjoliveur peut être monté de façon amovible sur la face avant de la prise.Furthermore, the hubcap can be mounted removably on the front face of the socket.

En outre, le volet est par exemple monté basculant sur le capot autour d'un axe sensiblement parallèle à la face avant, et peut s'étendre partiellement suivant une direction perpendiculaire à cette face avant.In addition, the flap is for example pivoted on the hood about an axis substantially parallel to the front face, and may extend partially in a direction perpendicular to the front face.

Comme annoncé précédemment, l'invention concerne un dispositif de branchement électrique à configurations multiples.As previously announced, the invention relates to a multi-configuration electrical connection device.

Par "dispositif de branchement électrique" on entend ici un dispositif permettant d'assurer à volonté une continuité électrique entre au moins deux portions d'un conducteur électrique discontinu, que ce conducteur soit assigné au transport d'une puissance électrique ou simplement au transport d'un signal électrique de faible puissance, tel qu'un signal de donnée informatique.By "electrical connection device" is meant here a device making it possible, at will, to provide electrical continuity between at least two portions of a discontinuous electrical conductor, whether this conductor is assigned to the transport of electric power or simply to the transport of electrical power. a low power electrical signal, such as a computer data signal.

Ce dispositif comprend, de façon connue en soi par le document de brevet précité, une prise 1, une fiche 2, et un boîtier d'étanchéité 3.This device comprises, in a manner known per se from the aforementioned patent document, a plug 1, a plug 2, and a sealing casing 3.

La prise 1 présente une face avant 10 dans laquelle la fiche 1, qui est équipée d'un cordon électrique 20, peut venir se brancher.The socket 1 has a front face 10 in which the plug 1, which is equipped with an electrical cord 20, can come to connect.

Le boîtier d'étanchéité 3, qui équipe la face avant 10 de la prise 1, permet d'assurer, vis-à-vis de l'extérieur du boîtier, l'étanchéité au moins à la poussière du branchement de la fiche 2 dans la prise 1.The sealing housing 3, which equips the front face 10 of the socket 1, makes it possible, with respect to the outside of the housing, to seal at least the dust of the connection of the plug 2 in taking 1.

Ce boîtier 3 comprend essentiellement un volet 31 et un capot 32, le capot 32 étant percé d'une ouverture 320 qui est dimensionnée pour permettre le passage de la fiche 2.This housing 3 essentially comprises a flap 31 and a cover 32, the cover 32 being pierced with an opening 320 which is dimensioned to allow the passage of the plug 2.

Le volet 31 est monté mobile entre une position ouverte illustrée notamment à la figure 4 et dans laquelle il libère l'ouverture 320 du capot 32, et une position fermée illustrée à la figure 6 et dans laquelle ce volet 31 obture de façon étanche cette ouverture 320.The flap 31 is mounted movably between an open position illustrated in particular at the figure 4 and in which it releases the opening 320 of the hood 32, and a closed position illustrated in FIG. figure 6 and in which this shutter 31 sealingly closes this opening 320.

Pour ce faire, le boîtier 3 comprend deux joints d'étanchéité dont l'un, 321, est installé sur le capot 32, et dont l'autre, 311, est installé sur le volet 31, ces joints 321 et 311 coopérant pour enserrer le cordon 20 de façon étanche en position fermée du volet 31.To do this, the housing 3 comprises two seals one of which, 321, is installed on the cover 32, and the other, 311, is installed on the flap 31, these seals 321 and 311 cooperating to enclose the cord 20 in a sealed manner in the closed position of the flap 31.

Selon l'invention, et comme le montrent notamment les figures 3 et 4, le boîtier 3 prend la forme d'un accessoire qui est monté de façon amovible sur la face avant 10 de la prise 1, le volet 31 étant quant à lui monté mobile sur le capot 32 du boîtier 3.According to the invention, and as shown in particular by Figures 3 and 4 , the housing 3 takes the form of an accessory which is removably mounted on the front face 10 of the socket 1, the flap 31 being itself movably mounted on the cover 32 of the housing 3.

Comme le montre la figure 1, une prise 1 susceptible d'être équipée pour constituer un dispositif conforme à l'invention peut, avant d'être ainsi équipée, comporter un capot K à finalité esthétique, monté de façon amovible sur la face avant 10 de la prise 1.As shown in figure 1 , a socket 1 capable of being equipped to constitute a device according to the invention can, before being so equipped, comprise a cover K for aesthetic purpose, removably mounted on the front face 10 of the socket 1.

Lors de l'équipement de cette prise, ce capot peut être enlevé et remplacé par un enjoliveur 4 lui-même fixé de façon amovible, par exemple au moyen de vis V, sur la face avant 10 de la prise 1, l'étanchéité entre la face avant 10 et l'enjoliveur étant assurée au moyen de joints standard.When fitting this socket, this cover can be removed and replaced by a hubcap 4 itself removably fixed, for example by means of screws V, on the front face 10 of the socket 1, the seal between the front face 10 and the hubcap being provided by means of standard seals.

Comme le montrent notamment les figures 3 à 6, l'enjoliveur 4 présente une embase 40 sur laquelle le boîtier 3 est lui-même monté de façon amovible et étanche, au moins à la poussière.As shown in particular by Figures 3 to 6 , the hubcap 4 has a base 40 on which the housing 3 is itself removably mounted and sealed, at least dust.

Pour ce faire, le boîtier 3 présente, à distance des joints d'étanchéité 321 et 311, une base 30 qui, comme l'embase 40 de l'enjoliveur 4, est de forme cylindrique.To do this, the housing 3 has, at a distance from the seals 321 and 311, a base 30 which, like the base 40 of the hubcap 4, is of cylindrical shape.

La base 30 du boîtier 3 et l'embase 40 de l'enjoliveur 4 portent des reliefs respectifs et complémentaires, 301 et 401, qui forment ensemble une liaison à baïonnette permettant d'accoupler le boîtier 3 et l'enjoliveur 4.The base 30 of the housing 3 and the base 40 of the hubcap 4 bear respective and complementary reliefs, 301 and 401, which together form a bayonet connection making it possible to couple the housing 3 and the hubcap 4.

Dans le cas où les reliefs 301 portés par la base 30 du boîtier sont des reliefs femelles, il peut être judicieux de prévoir que l'embase 40 de l'enjoliveur 4 soit en saillie et présente un diamètre interne supérieur au diamètre externe de la base 30 du boîtier 3, de sorte qu'après accouplement du boîtier 3 et de l'enjoliveur 4, la base 30 du boîtier et les reliefs femelles 301 se trouvent protégés à l'intérieur de l'embase 40.In the case where the reliefs 301 carried by the base 30 of the housing are female reliefs, it may be advisable to provide that the base 40 of the hubcap 4 is projecting and has an internal diameter greater than the outer diameter of the base 30 of the housing 3, so that after coupling of the housing 3 and the hubcap 4, the base 30 of the housing and the female reliefs 301 are protected inside the base 40.

Comme le montre la figure 6, le volet 31 est de préférence monté basculant sur le capot 32 autour d'un axe X sensiblement parallèle à la face avant 10, et ce volet s'étend partiellement suivant une direction perpendiculaire à cette face avant 10, c'est-à-dire suivant la direction du cordon 20 tel qu'illustré sur cette figure.As shown in figure 6 , the flap 31 is preferably pivotally mounted on the cover 32 about an axis X substantially parallel to the front face 10, and this flap extends partially in a direction perpendicular to the front face 10, that is to say say in the direction of the cord 20 as shown in this figure.

Les figures 2 et 4 à 6 illustrent la séquence d'opérations permettant de transformer une prise 1 telle que représentée à la figure 1 en un dispositif conforme à l'invention.The figures 2 and 4 to 6 illustrate the sequence of operations for transforming a tap 1 as shown in FIG. figure 1 in a device according to the invention.

Pour ce faire, l'enjoliveur 4, après le retrait du capot esthétique K (figure 1), est monté sur la face avant 10 de la prise 1 (figure 2).To do this, the hubcap 4, after removing the aesthetic cover K ( figure 1 ), is mounted on the front face 10 of the socket 1 ( figure 2 ).

Puis (figure 4), la fiche 2 et le cordon 20 qui l'équipe sont passés dans l'ouverture 320 du boîtier 3, dont le volet 31 a préalablement été placé en position ouverte.Then ( figure 4 ), the plug 2 and the cord 20 which team is passed through the opening 320 of the housing 3, the shutter 31 has previously been placed in the open position.

Le boîtier 3 et l'enjoliveur 4 sont ensuite accouplés (figure 5) au niveau de la base 30 du premier et de l'embase 40 du second.The housing 3 and the hubcap 4 are then coupled ( figure 5 ) at the base 30 of the first and the base 40 of the second.

Enfin (figure 6), le volet 31 est rabattu sur l'ouverture 320 qu'il obture, et encliqueté sur le capot 32 grâce à des pattes d'encliquetage 315.Finally ( figure 6 ), the flap 31 is folded over the opening 320 that it closes, and snapped onto the cover 32 by means of latching lugs 315.

Comme le comprendra aisément l'homme du métier à la lecture de la présente description, les opérations précédemment décrites peuvent être effectuées en sens inverse pour retourner à l'état initial tel qu'illustré à la figure 1.As will be readily understood by those skilled in the art upon reading the present description, the operations described above can be carried out reverse to return to the initial state as shown in figure 1 .
