Description

La présente invention concerne une pince de montage d'un rétroviseur intérieur de véhicule automobile, et plus particulièrement d'un bras de rétroviseur intérieur de véhicule automobile.The present invention relates to a mounting clamp of a motor vehicle interior rear-view mirror, and more particularly to an automobile interior rear-view mirror arm.

Le montage du rétroviseur intérieur est une opération manuelle réalisée par un opérateur. Le bras de rétroviseur intérieur est prévu pour être monté sur le pare-brise au véhicule au moyen d'une embase de rétroviseur qui est généralement collée sur la surface intérieure du pare-brise.The rear view mirror is a manual operation performed by an operator. The interior mirror arm is adapted to be mounted on the windshield of the vehicle by means of a mirror base which is generally adhered to the inner surface of the windshield.

Il existe plusieurs types de montage du rétroviseur sur une embase fixée au pare-brise du véhicule. Dans le cas d'un montage du rétroviseur par coulissement, par emboîtement dans des rainures formées dans l'embase (décrit par exemple dans le document FR2456640 ), il est nécessaire, pour l'opérateur, de fournir un effort appelé effort de montage. Un problème est que cet effort de montage devient de plus en plus important, car la fixation du rétroviseur intérieur doit respecter une résistance à l'arrachement de plus en plus élevée. L'opération manuelle reste possible, cependant elle est vite fatigante, et l'effort de montage peut être amené à dépasser les préconisations.There are several types of rear view mirror mounting on a base attached to the windshield of the vehicle. In the case of mounting the mirror by sliding, by interlocking in grooves formed in the base (described for example in the document FR2456640 ), it is necessary for the operator to provide a force called mounting force. A problem is that this mounting effort becomes more and more important, since the attachment of the rear-view mirror must comply with an increasingly high resistance to tearing. The manual operation is still possible, however it is quickly tiring, and the mounting effort may have to exceed the recommendations.

Le document US6892610 décrit une pince de démontage d'un rétroviseur qui comporte deux branches de pince reliées entre elles par une articulation et se croisant au niveau de l'articulation, et comportant chacune une partie de saisie manuelle et une mâchoire. Une des mâchoires vient en contact sur le dessus du bras de rétroviseur, tandis que l'autre est apte à déformer des clips de maintien du boîtier de rétroviseur sur l'embase.The document US6892610 discloses a dismounting clamp of a rearview mirror which comprises two clamp legs interconnected by a joint and intersecting at the joint, and each having a manual gripping portion and a jaw. One of the jaws comes into contact on the top of the mirror arm, while the other is able to deform the retaining clips of the mirror housing on the base.

L'invention vise à pallier les inconvénients de l'état de la technique, et fournit dans ce but une pince de montage d'un bras de rétroviseur intérieur de véhicule automobile dans une embase, la pince comportant deux branches de pinces reliées entre elles par une articulation et se croisant au niveau de l'articulation, les branches comportant chacune une partie de saisie manuelle et une mâchoire, une des mâchoires étant apte à prendre appui sur la partie arrière du bras de rétroviseur, et l'autre mâchoire comportant un moyen pour prendre appui sur l'embase et passant sous le bras du rétroviseur de manière à faire coulisser le bras de rétroviseur dans l'embase.The invention aims to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art, and provides for this purpose a mounting clamp of a motor vehicle rearview mirror arm in a base, the clamp comprising two branches of clamps interconnected by a hinge and intersecting at the joint, the branches each having a manual gripping portion and a jaw, one of the jaws being able to bear on the rear part of the mirror arm, and the other jaw comprising a means to bear on the base and passing under the arm of the mirror so as to slide the mirror arm in the base.

Mais d'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit. Pour sa compréhension, on se reportera aux figures suivantes :

  • la figure 1 est une représentation schématique de la pince selon l'invention, ainsi que du bras de rétroviseur et de l'embase ;
  • la figure 2 est une représentation schématique en coupe selon l'axe de glissement du bras de rétroviseur intérieur sur l'embase.
But other features and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the detailed description which follows. For its understanding, one will refer to the following figures:
  • the figure 1 is a schematic representation of the clamp according to the invention, as well as the mirror arm and the base;
  • the figure 2 is a schematic representation in section along the axis of sliding of the inner mirror arm on the base.

La pince 1 de montage selon l'invention comporte deux branches de pinces 20 et 30 reliées entre elles par une articulation. Les deux branches 20 et 30 se croisent au niveau de l'articulation. L'articulation peut consister en un axe serti assurant le pivotement des deux branches de pince 20 et 30. La pince 1 peut être en matière plastique, de sorte à être légère et à ne pas présenter de risques de rayures sur le pare-brise lorsqu'elle est amenée à être en contact avec ce dernier.The mounting clamp 1 according to the invention comprises two branches of clamps 20 and 30 interconnected by a hinge. The two branches 20 and 30 intersect at the joint. The joint may consist of a crimped shaft ensuring the pivoting of the two clamp legs 20 and 30. The clamp 1 may be of plastic, so as to be light and not to present any risk of scratching on the windshield when it is brought to be in contact with the latter.

Les branches 20 et 30 comportent chacune une partie de saisie manuelle 21 et 31 et une mâchoire 22 et 32. The branches 20 and 30 each comprise a manual gripping portion 21 and 31 and a jaw 22 and 32.

La mâchoire 22 de la première branche 20 peut former un U. La base 23 du U peut être plane, et est prévue pour prendre appui sur la partie arrière du boîtier 2 de rétroviseur. Selon un aspect complémentaire de l'invention, la base 23 du U peut comporter un patin 24 de protection de la partie arrière du bras 2 de rétroviseur, pris par rapport au sens de déplacement du bras 2 de rétroviseur pour son montage. Le patin 24 peut être collé sur la base 23 du U.The jaw 22 of the first branch 20 may form a U. The base 23 of the U may be flat, and is provided to bear on the rear part of the housing 2 mirror. According to a complementary aspect of the invention, the base 23 of the U may comprise a pad 24 for protecting the rear part of the mirror arm 2 , taken relative to the direction of movement of the mirror arm 2 for mounting. The pad 24 can be glued to the base 23 of the U.

La mâchoire 32 de la deuxième branche 30 peut également former un U, et comporte un moyen pour prendre appui sur une embase 3 et passant sous le bras 2 du rétroviseur. Ce moyen comporte dans les figures un talon 34, faisant saillie à l'intérieur de l'espace formé par les mâchoires 22 et 32. Sur la figure 2, le talon 34 fait saillie par rapport à la surface de la base 33 du U vers l'intérieur de l'espace formé par les mâchoires 22 et 32, et est destiné à prendre appui sur la face avant de l'embase 3, pris par rapport au sens de déplacement du bras 2 de rétroviseur pour son montage. En référence aux figures, lors du montage, la mâchoire 22 peut se déplacer par rapport à la mâchoire 32 dans un plan sensiblement parallèle au plan de coulissement, de manière à faire coulisser le bras 2 de rétroviseur dans l'embase 3. Un des avantages de l'invention est que les efforts de montage par coulissement du rétroviseur, ou plus précisément du bras 2 de rétroviseur, peuvent être considérablement réduits pour respecter les préconisations. Les efforts peuvent également être adaptés en fonction de la longueur des parties de saisie manuelle 21 et 31 des branches de pince 20 et 30 permettant de faire le bras de levier. Un autre avantage de la présente invention est que l'opération de montage est plus fiable, car l'effort de montage par coulissement est désormais supporté par l'embase, alors que lors d'un montage à la main sans pince 1, l'effort de montage par coulissement est supporté par le pare-brise, et la colle dans le cas d'une embase 3 collée.The jaw 32 of the second branch 30 may also form a U, and comprises means for bearing on a base 3 and passing under the arm 2 of the mirror. This means comprises in the figures a heel 34, protruding inside the space formed by the jaws 22 and 32. figure 2 , the heel 34 protrudes from the surface of the base 33 of the U towards the inside of the space formed by the jaws 22 and 32, and is intended to bear on the front face of the base 3, taken relative to the direction of movement of the mirror arm 2 for mounting. With reference to the figures, during assembly, the jaw 22 can move relative to the jaw 32 in a plane substantially parallel to the plane of sliding, so as to slide the mirror arm 2 in the base 3. One of the advantages of the invention is that the sliding mounting forces of the mirror, or more precisely the rearview mirror arm 2 , can be considerably reduced to meet the recommendations. The forces can also be adapted according to the length of the manual gripping portions 21 and 31 of the clamp legs 20 and 30 to make the lever arm. Another advantage of the present invention is that the mounting operation is more reliable, because the sliding mounting force is now supported by the base, while in a hand-mounted without clip 1, the sliding mounting force is supported by the windshield, and the glue in the case of a base 3 glued.

Le talon 34 se trouve en partie basse de la mâchoire 32, c'est-à-dire au niveau ou à proximité de la surface de la mâchoire 32 destinée à venir en appui contre la vitre. L'épaisseur du talon 34 est telle qu'il peut s'insérer sous le bras 2 du rétroviseur. Elle peut être comprise entre 1 et 3 mm, et dépend également du matériau utilisé. Le bras 2 du rétroviseur peut définir une ouverture de dimensions discrètes pour le conducteur du véhicule, pour aider au passage du talon 34, la hauteur de l'ouverture étant inférieure ou égale à la hauteur du talon 34. La longueur du talon 34 peut être définie de sorte que le bras 2 du rétroviseur vienne en butée contre l'embase 3, avant que la partie avant du bras 2 de rétroviseur ne soit en contact avec la mâchoire 32, assurant ainsi que le rétroviseur est correctement monté. De ce fait la mâchoire 32 n'a pas de fonction de préhension du bras 2 de rétroviseur, et peut uniquement servir à faire la liaison entre le talon 34 et la partie de saisie manuelle 31. Dans le cas où une butée ne serait pas présente entre le bras 2 de rétroviseur et l'embase 3, c'est la pince elle-même qui peut déterminer la position finale du bras de rétroviseur. Dans ce cas, la longueur du talon 34 sera déterminée de façon que lorsque le bras 2 de rétroviseur est en prise dans les deux mâchoires 22 et 32, il sera dans la bonne position de montage final.The heel 34 is in the lower part of the jaw 32, that is to say at or near the surface of the jaw 32 intended to bear against the window. The thickness of the heel 34 is such that it can be inserted under the arm 2 of the mirror. It can be between 1 and 3 mm, and also depends on the material used. The arm 2 of the mirror can define an opening of discrete dimensions for the driver of the vehicle, to help the passage of the heel 34, the height of the opening being less than or equal to the height of the heel 34. The length of the heel 34 can be defined so that the arm 2 of the mirror comes into abutment against the base 3, before the front part of the mirror arm 2 is in contact with the jaw 32, thus ensuring that the mirror is correctly mounted. As a result, the jaw 32 does not have a function of gripping the mirror arm 2 and can only be used to make the connection between the heel 34 and the manual gripping portion 31. In the case where a stop is not present between the mirror arm 2 and the base 3, it is the clip itself that can determine the final position of the mirror arm. In this case, the length of the heel 34 will be determined so that when the rearview mirror arm 2 is engaged in the two jaws 22 and 32, it will be in the correct final mounting position.

Le talon 34 peut être en matière plastique, et peut être moulé directement avec la branche de pince 30. Il peut également consister en un élément rajouté qui est fixé à la mâchoire 32. The heel 34 may be of plastic material, and may be molded directly with the clamp branch 30. It may also consist of an added element which is attached to the jaw 32.

Pour procéder au montage du rétroviseur, l'opérateur peut commencer par une opération dite de pré assemblage dans laquelle il engage le bras 2 de rétroviseur dans l'embase 3 fixée sur le pare-brise du véhicule. L'opérateur procède ensuite à l'opération de mise en position finale du bras 2 de rétroviseur, dans laquelle il peut placer la mâchoire 22 (dite mobile pour l'opération de montage), le talon 34 et/ou la mâchoire 32 (selon la position en hauteur du talon 34 par rapport à la mâchoire 32) sur la surface du pare-brise et autour du bras 2 de rétroviseur, puis placer l'extrémité du talon 34 en contact avec la partie avant de l'embase 3. Et enfin, en serrant les parties 21 et 31 de saisie manuelle, faire glisser ou emboîter le bras 2 du rétroviseur jusqu'à ce dernier soit en butée ou dans la position finale requise.To mount the rearview mirror, the operator can begin with a so-called pre-assembly operation in which he engages the mirror arm 2 in the base 3 fixed on the windshield of the vehicle. The operator then carries out the operation of final positioning of the mirror arm 2 , in which he can place the jaw 22 (called mobile for the mounting operation), the heel 34 and / or the jaw 32 (according to the height position of the heel 34 relative to the jaw 32 ) on the surface of the windshield and around the mirror arm 2 , then placing the end of the heel 34 in contact with the front portion of the base 3. And finally, by tightening the parts 21 and 31 of manual entry, slide or fit the arm 2 of the mirror until the latter is in abutment or in the required final position.

Selon un aspect complémentaire de la pince selon l'invention, pour faciliter le travail de l'opérateur, les parties de saisie manuelle 21 et 31 peuvent se trouver dans un plan décalé, par rapport au plan dans lequel se déplacent les mâchoires 22 et 32, d'au moins une distance prévue pour le passage des doigts de l'utilisateur lorsque les mâchoires 22 et 32 sont en appui contre le pare-brise du véhicule. Cette distance peut être par exemple d'au moins 50 mm. De même, les parties de saisie manuelle 21 et 31 peuvent se trouvent dans un plan décalé angulairement, par rapport au plan dans lequel se déplacent les mâchoires 22 et 32, par exemple d'un angle compris entre 10 et 20 degrés. Il est également possible de combiner le décalage angulaire et le décalage en distance pour une meilleure ergonomie.According to a complementary aspect of the clamp according to the invention, to facilitate the work of the operator, the manual gripping parts 21 and 31 may be in a plane offset from the plane in which the jaws 22 and 32 move. , at least a distance provided for the passage of the fingers of the user when the jaws 22 and 32 are in support against the windshield of the vehicle. This distance can be for example at least 50 mm. Similarly, the manual gripping portions 21 and 31 may be in a plane angularly offset, relative to the plane in which the jaws 22 and 32 move, for example at an angle of between 10 and 20 degrees. It is also possible to combine the angular offset and the distance offset for better ergonomics.
