Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif pour diminuer la « sur-course » dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile.The present invention relates to a device for reducing the "over-stroke" in the operation of a rear leaf of a motor vehicle.

Par « ouvrant arrière », on entend tout élément mobile de carrosserie ouvrant vers le haut, tel un volet arrière, un hayon arrière, un capot de coffre, etc."Rear opening" means any movable bodywork element opening upwards, such as a rear door, a tailgate, a trunk lid, etc.

La « sur-course » est le déplacement supplémentaire effectué au-delà de la course normale."Over-running" is the extra movement done beyond the normal run.

Des fermetures répétées d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile, par exemple d'un capot de coffre arrière, peuvent entraîner des marquages du pare-chocs arrière, en particulier sous forme d'écailles de la peinture du pare-chocs. Ces marquages sont dus au poids du capot de coffre et au claquement de ce dernier sur le dormant.Repeated closing of an opening of a motor vehicle, for example a trunk lid, may result in markings of the rear bumper, especially in the form of scales of the paint bumper. These markings are due to the weight of the trunk lid and the slamming of the latter on the frame.

On connaît déjà des moyens pour limiter la sur-course dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile. Ainsi, par exemple, le document US 2005/0093342 A1 décrit un amortisseur ou butée de « surclaquage » pour un hayon arrière. Cet amortisseur comporte une protubérance sur le hayon arrière. Une pièce d'arrêt, montée sur la caisse du véhicule, vient en contact avec la protubérance lorsque le hayon arrière vient en position de fermeture. La pièce d'arrêt comporte une partie de contact et une partie de fixation latérale. La partie de contact est configurée de façon à venir en contact avec la protubérance lorsque le hayon arrière vient en position de fermeture. La partie de fixation latérale présente une forme saillante pour presser à force une face latérale de la protubérance. La partie de contact de la pièce d'arrêt se déforme lorsque le hayon arrière vient en position de fermeture et en conséquence absorbe le choc, diminue le bruit d'impact, et évite une excessive insertion du hayon arrière. La partie de fixation latérale presse à force une face latérale de la protubérance, ce qui permet d'éviter tout « désalignement » du hayon.Means are already known for limiting over-travel in the operation of a rear opening of a motor vehicle. So, for example, the document US 2005/0093342 A1 describes an "overclad" damper or stop for a tailgate. This damper has a protuberance on the tailgate. A stopper, mounted on the vehicle body, comes into contact with the protrusion when the tailgate comes into the closed position. The stop member has a contact portion and a lateral attachment portion. The contact portion is configured to engage the protrusion when the tailgate is in the closed position. The lateral attachment portion has a protruding shape for forcibly pressing a lateral face of the protuberance. The contact portion of the stop piece deforms when the tailgate comes into the closed position and therefore absorbs shock, reduces impact noise, and avoids excessive insertion of the tailgate. The side fastening portion presses a side face of the protrusion, which avoids any "misalignment" of the tailgate.

Le but de la présente invention est de fournir un nouveau dispositif pour diminuer la « sur-course » dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, qui soit moins complexe que les dispositifs aujourd'hui connus et utilisés et permette de supprimer plus efficacement tout marquage du pare-chocs arrière.The object of the present invention is to provide a new device to reduce the "over-stroke" in the operation of a rear door of a motor vehicle, which is less complex than the devices now known and used and allows to remove more effectively any marking of the rear bumper.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de fournir un tel dispositif, qui permette d'assurer dans un environnement réduit deux fonctions : d'une part, une fonction de réduction - ou de butée - de la sur-course mentionnée ci-dessus, et d'autre part, une fonction esthétique en bouchant des trous de cataphorèse sur l'ouvrant.Another object of the present invention is to provide such a device, which makes it possible to provide two functions in a reduced environment: on the one hand, a function of reduction - or abutment - of the over-travel mentioned above, and on the other hand, an aesthetic function by plugging cataphoresis holes on the opening.

C'est également un but de la présente invention de fournir un tel dispositif, qui rende possible l'évacuation de l'eau du corps creux compris entre l'ouvrant du véhicule et sa doublure.It is also an object of the present invention to provide such a device, which makes possible the evacuation of water from the hollow body between the opening of the vehicle and its lining.

Enfin, c'est également un but de la présente invention de fournir un tel dispositif remplissant les fonctions mentionnées ci-dessus, qui soit, de plus, de fabrication simple, qui soit robuste, fiable et économique.Finally, it is also an object of the present invention to provide such a device fulfilling the functions mentioned above, which is, moreover, simple to manufacture, which is robust, reliable and economical.

Pour parvenir à ces buts, la présente invention a pour objet un dispositif pour diminuer la « sur-course » dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, lequel dispositif est constitué en deux parties, à savoir une première partie, désignée aussi « partie d'amortissement », en matière tendre et destinée à amortir l'ouvrant, qui est montée fixe sur une seconde partie, désignée aussi « partie de fixation », en matière dure et elle-même montée fixe sur la doublure de l'ouvrant.To achieve these aims, the present invention relates to a device for reducing the "over-stroke" in the operation of a rear leaf of a motor vehicle, which device consists of two parts, namely a first part, also called "Damping portion", in soft material and intended to damp the opening, which is fixedly mounted on a second portion, also referred to as "fixing portion", made of hard material and itself fixedly mounted on the lining of the opening.

De manière préférentielle, la partie de fixation du dispositif est montée fixe sur la doublure de l'ouvrant par « clippage ».Preferably, the fixing portion of the device is fixedly mounted on the lining of the opening by "clipping".

De manière préférentielle également, la partie d'amortissement du dispositif est montée fixe sur la partie de fixation par « clippage ».Also preferentially, the damping portion of the device is fixedly mounted on the fixing part by "clipping".

De préférence, le montage par « clippage » de la partie de fixation sur l'ouvrant est réalisé par une protubérance de cette partie de fixation, laquelle protubérance est de forme adaptée à constituer un clip de fixation.Preferably, the assembly by "clipping" of the fastening part on the opening is made by a protuberance of this fixing portion, which protuberance is shaped to form a fastening clip.

Ce clip de fixation est, de préférence, de forme adaptée pour venir boucher, en position de fixation, un trou de cataphorèse de l'ouvrant.This fixing clip is preferably shaped to fit in the fixing position, a cataphoresis hole of the opening.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, ce clip de fixation présente au moins une échancrure permettant d'assurer une bonne évacuation de l'eau rentrée dans le corps creux entre l'ouvrant et la doublure d'ouvrant.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, this fastening clip has at least one notch for ensuring a good evacuation of the water entered into the hollow body between the opening and the opening lining.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention également, ce clip de fixation présente une forme sensiblement parallélépipédique surmontée par une forme en tronc de pyramide dont la base fait fonction de moyen de blocage du clip après son passage à travers la doublure de l'ouvrant.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention also, this fastening clip has a substantially parallelepiped shape surmounted by a truncated pyramid shape whose base acts as a locking means of the clip after passing through the lining of the opening.

Chaque échancrure du clip pour l'évacuation de l'eau présente, de préférence, une forme en secteur cylindrique et est située sur une face latérale du clip.Each notch of the clip for draining the water preferably has a cylindrical sector shape and is located on a lateral face of the clip.

La présente invention a également pour objet un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, qui comporte un dispositif pour diminuer sa « sur-course », lequel dispositif est conforme à celui décrit ci-dessus dans ses grandes lignes.The present invention also relates to a rear door of a motor vehicle, which comprises a device for reducing its "over-stroke", which device is consistent with that described above in outline.

L'ouvrant arrière est, de préférence, équipé de deux de ces dispositifs selon l'invention, identiques, et positionnés de manière symétrique par rapport à l'axe central de symétrie de l'ouvrant.The rear opening is preferably equipped with two of these devices according to the invention, identical, and positioned symmetrically with respect to the central axis of symmetry of the opening.

La présente invention a enfin pour objet un véhicule automobile, dans lequel l'ouvrant arrière est conforme à celui décrit ci-dessus dans ses grandes lignes.The present invention finally relates to a motor vehicle, wherein the rear opening is consistent with that outlined above.

Cet ouvrant arrière du véhicule peut être, par exemple, un capot de coffre, ou un volet de coffre.This rear door of the vehicle may be, for example, a trunk lid, or a tailgate.

D'autres buts, avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront dans la description qui suit d'un mode de réalisation préféré, non limitatif de l'objet et de la portée de la présente demande de brevet, accompagnée de dessins dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue en perspective du dispositif pour diminuer la « sur-course » dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, selon la présente invention,
  • la figure 2 est une vue en coupe, schématique, du dispositif de la figure 1 monté fixe sur la doublure de capot d'un véhicule automobile,
  • la figure 3 est une vue en perspective, schématique, de l'intérieur de la doublure de l'ouvrant du dispositif des figures 1 et 2 en position de fixation, et
  • la figure 4 est une vue en perspective d'un capot de véhicule automobile équipé de deux dispositifs conformes à la présente invention et représentés sur les figures 1, 2 et 3.
Other objects, advantages and features of the invention will appear in the following description of a preferred embodiment, not limiting the object and scope of the present patent application, accompanied by drawings in which:
  • the figure 1 is a perspective view of the device for reducing the "over-stroke" in the operation of a motor vehicle rear opening, according to the present invention,
  • the figure 2 is a schematic sectional view of the device of the figure 1 fixed mounted on the hood lining of a motor vehicle,
  • the figure 3 is a schematic perspective view of the interior of the lining of the opening of the device of the Figures 1 and 2 in the fixing position, and
  • the figure 4 is a perspective view of a motor vehicle hood equipped with two devices according to the present invention and shown on the Figures 1, 2 and 3 .

En référence au dessin de la figure 1, on a représenté un exemple de réalisation d'un dispositif pour diminuer la « sur-course » dans la manoeuvre d'un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, selon la présente invention.With reference to the drawing of the figure 1 , there is shown an embodiment of a device for decreasing the "over-stroke" in the operation of a rear leaf of a motor vehicle, according to the present invention.

Ce dispositif est constitué en deux parties :

  • une première partie, référencée 10, désignée aussi « partie d'amortissement », de forme générale sensiblement parallélépipédique, en matière tendre et destinée à amortir l'ouvrant du véhicule comme il sera décrit ci-dessous,
  • une seconde partie 20, désignée aussi « partie de fixation », en matière dure et montée sur la doublure de l'ouvrant, comme mieux représenté sur les figures 2 et 3.
This device consists of two parts:
  • a first part, referenced 10, also called "damping part", of generally parallelepipedal general shape, made of soft material and intended to damp the opening of the vehicle as will be described below,
  • a second part 20, also called "fixing part", hard material and mounted on the lining of the opening, as best shown on the figures 2 and 3 .

La partie d'amortissement 10 est montée fixe sur la partie de fixation 20 par clippage, de préférence.The damping portion 10 is fixedly mounted on the fastening portion 20 by clipping, preferably.

La partie de fixation 20 est, de préférence également, montée sur la doublure 2 de l'ouvrant 1 par clippage. Elle est en matière relativement dure, de façon à supporter les efforts et assurer un bon clippage sur l'ouvrant. Elle présente une forme à pans coupés adaptée à la forme de la doublure 2 de l'ouvrant 1 (figure 2, plus particulièrement) dans la zone de fixation du dispositif de l'invention sur la doublure 2. La partie de fixation 20 et la doublure 2 coopèrent, ainsi, par contact par concordance des formes.The fixing portion 20 is preferably also mounted on the lining 2 of the opening 1 by clipping. It is relatively hard, so as to support the efforts and ensure a good clipping on the opening. It has a cut-off shape adapted to the shape of the lining 2 of the opening 1 ( figure 2 , more particularly) in the fastening area of the device of the invention on the liner 2. The fastening portion 20 and the lining 2 cooperate, thus, by contact by matching shapes.

Il va de soi que les montages par clippage mentionnés ci-dessus peuvent être remplacés par des montages par d'autres moyens analogues, connus de l'art antérieur.It goes without saying that the clipping fixtures mentioned above can be replaced by assemblies by other similar means, known from the prior art.

Le montage par clippage de la partie de fixation 20 sur l'ouvrant 1 est réalisé par une protubérance 21 de cette partie de fixation 20. Cette protubérance 21 présente une forme adaptée pour constituer un clip de fixation.The mounting by clipping of the fastening portion 20 on the opening 1 is formed by a protrusion 21 of this fastening portion 20. This protrusion 21 has a shape adapted to form a fastening clip.

Selon une caractéristique avantageuse de l'invention, ce clip de fixation 21 vient boucher, en position de fixation sur la doublure, un trou de cataphorèse de l'ouvrant, référencé 2A sur les figures 2 et 3. Il est à noter que les trous de cataphorèse sont essentiels pour combattre la corrosion des pièces de l'ouvrant, mais leur présence est souvent critiquée en termes d'esthétique. Ainsi, le dispositif de l'invention, en venant se placer dans de tels orifices et en les masquant, participe favorablement au design de l'ouvrant du véhicule.According to an advantageous characteristic of the invention, this fastening clip 21 closes, in the fixing position on the lining, a hole of cataphoresis of the opening, referenced 2A on the figures 2 and 3 . It should be noted that the cataphoresis holes are essential to fight the corrosion of the parts of the opening, but their presence is often criticized in terms of aesthetics. Thus, the device of the invention, by being placed in such openings and masking, participates favorably in the design of the opening of the vehicle.

De plus, ces trous de cataphorèse servent aussi à évacuer l'eau résiduelle dans le corps creux compris entre l'ouvrant et sa doublure. On notera que le dispositif de la présente invention autorise cette évacuation d'eau, tout en venant masquer les trous de cataphorèse concernés. A cette fin, le clip de fixation 21 présente au moins une échancrure 22, qui assure, par sa forme et sa disposition, une bonne évacuation de l'eau rentrée dans le corps creux entre l'ouvrant 1 et la doublure 2 d'ouvrant.In addition, these cataphoresis holes also serve to evacuate the residual water in the hollow body included between the opening and its lining. It will be noted that the device of the present invention allows this evacuation of water, while coming to hide the cataphoresis holes concerned. To this end, the fastening clip 21 has at least one notch 22, which ensures, by its shape and its arrangement, a good evacuation of the water entered into the hollow body between the opening 1 and the opening lining 2 .

Le clip de fixation 21 présente une forme sensiblement parallélépipédique 21A surmontée par une forme en tronc de pyramide 21B, dont la base fait fonction de moyen de retenue dans la doublure 2 de l'ouvrant 1.The fastening clip 21 has a substantially parallelepipedal shape 21A surmounted by a truncated pyramid shape 21B, whose base acts as a retaining means in the lining 2 of the opening 1.

Chaque échancrure 22 est, de préférence, en forme de secteur cylindrique et est située sur une face latérale du clip de fixation 21.Each notch 22 is preferably in the form of a cylindrical sector and is located on a lateral face of the fastening clip 21.

Lorsque l'on ferme le capot de coffre 1, 2, du véhicule, la face plane inférieure de la partie d'amortissement 10 vient en contact avec le pare-chocs arrière 3 pour faire butée de sur-course de la manoeuvre de fermeture. La matière relativement tendre de cette partie d'amortissement 10 empêche le marquage du pare-chocs.When the trunk lid 1, 2 of the vehicle is closed, the lower flat face of the damping portion 10 comes into contact with the rear bumper 3 to make an over-travel stop of the closing maneuver. The relatively soft material of this cushioning portion 10 prevents the marking of the bumper.

La présente invention présente l'avantage économique de constituer une pièce unique assurant plusieurs fonctions différentes (butée de sur-course, masquage de trous de cataphorèse, évacuation de l'eau de l'ouvrant), toutes fonctions assurées, dans les dispositifs de l'art antérieur, par des pièces différentes.The present invention has the economic advantage of constituting a single piece providing several different functions (stop over-stroke, masking cataphoresis holes, evacuation of water from the opening), all functions provided in the devices of the prior art, by different parts.

La présente invention a également pour objet un ouvrant arrière de véhicule automobile, qui comporte au moins un dispositif pour diminuer sa sur-course conforme à celui décrit ci-dessus. Comme représenté sur la figure 4, pour que le concept de la présente invention s'applique de manière efficace, il est nécessaire de placer au moins deux dispositifs D1 et D2, identiques au dispositif de l'invention décrit ci-dessus. Les deux dispositifs D1 et D2 sont situés de manière symétrique par rapport au plan central de symétrie de l'ouvrant 1.The present invention also relates to a rear door of a motor vehicle, which comprises at least one device for reducing its over-stroke as described above. As shown on the figure 4 , for the concept of the present invention to apply effectively, it is necessary to place at least two devices D1 and D2, identical to the device of the invention described above. The two devices D1 and D2 are located symmetrically with respect to the central plane of symmetry of the opening 1.

La présente invention concerne enfin un véhicule automobile, qui comporte un ouvrant arrière, en particulier un capot de coffre arrière, équipé de dispositifs pour diminuer la sur-course de l'ouvrant arrière, de préférence au moins deux dispositifs tels que les dispositifs D1 et D2 de la figure 4.The present invention finally relates to a motor vehicle, which comprises a rear opening, in particular a rear trunk lid, equipped with devices for reducing the over-travel of the rear opening, preferably at least two devices such as the devices D1 and D2 of the figure 4 .

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté ci-dessus à titre d'exemple ; d'autres modes de réalisation peuvent être conçus par l'homme de métier sans sortir du cadre et de la portée de la présente invention.Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown above by way of example; other embodiments may be devised by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and scope of the present invention.
