Definitions

  • the present invention concerns a device able to keep in open position the door of a motor vehicle when this undergoes the various manufacturing processes.
  • This invention aims at removing the above mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, providing a device to keep the door of a motor vehicle in open position during the manufacturing process, that is both simple to product and not expensive and simple and quick to install.
  • the device according to this invention that allows to keep in open position a door to a specified distance from the frame during the manufacturing processes (for example painting process) of a motor vehicle, includes a rod around which a gripping bushing that can slide is housed.
  • Said rod is fixed to a joint in one end with the freedom to axially rotate.
  • the joint can be fastened by a bolt to the frame of the motor vehicle.
  • the gripping bush can be housed in the metal sheet of the door through a rectangular slit and will grip a pin on the rod after applying a suitable force to the door.
  • the device can be rotated around the axis of rod due to the design of the bushing.
  • the device according to this invention is used during all the phases of surface treatment the vehicles (frame, metal cover and door) undergo.
  • the vehicles frame, metal cover and door
  • the device in the subject of this invention allows keeping in open position a door of a motor vehicle, to a specified distance from the frame, during the processes of surface treatment.
  • It includes a rod 1 made of thermoplastic material loaded with glass fibers. Its section is rectangular with blends 8 at vertex on the short side 40 of the section. On the one end the rod 1 terminates with a tip 9 and on the other end there is a through hole 10, perpendicular to the long side 41 of the section of the rod and an inclined plane 11 in the direction of the axis of the rod. To a specific distance by the tip 9 there are through holes (7, 7'), both perpendiculars to the long side 41 of the section of the rod. In one of them, for example 7' a pin 6 is inserted.
  • a gripping bushing can slide.
  • Said bushing is produced in a single piece of thermoplastic material that can undergo one hour cycles at 200°C and is highly tough. It is sketched in two parts.
  • the first one is a rear body 12 ( Fig. 3 ) which is a parallelepiped with chamfers 18 on the edges of the external face and with the short edges 19 blended.
  • this body 12 In the core of this body 12 there is a cylindrical through cavity whose symmetry plane is parallel to the long side of the parallelepiped.
  • the profile of the cavity starts with a portion of a circumference 20 with diameter equal to the one of the pin 6 ( Fig. 1 ), then a shrinkage 21 and at last widens again with a chamfer 22.
  • the second one is a front body 13 that is essentially a tapered cylinder that rests on the back face of the parallelepiped 12. It starts from the long side of said face and enlarge with an inclination of about eight degrees.
  • a cavity 14 exists that is through cavity for the whole bushing 2. It has a similar profile to the section of the rod 1 but it is wider laterally. As it is showed in Fig. 3 , it narrows of about five degrees, till to terminate with the profile 23 that is just a few decimillimetres larger that the section of the rod 1.
  • the joint 4 On the end opposite the tip 9 of the rod 1 there is the joint 4. It is made of thermoplastic elastic material and is designed as a support with a through hole 15 to fasten the device to the frame 25 by means of a bolt 5, two opposing flexible flanges 17, two cylindrical pins 16 lying internally to said flanges, that have a slight chamfer as indicated in Fig. 2 and a diameter of a few decimillimetres less than the diameter of the hole 10 through the rod 1.
  • the device is assembled from the component showed in Fig. 2 by manual or robotic operations.
  • the device is assembled in the folowing order:
  • the device is fastened to the frame 25 ( Fig. 4 ) of the motor vehicle in zone 27 dedicated to house the permanent device to keep the door open.
  • the operator opens the door as showed in Fig. 4 .
  • he introduces the device in the rectangular slit 70 that is part of the metal sheet 3 of the door 26, as showed in Fig. 1 , until the body 12 has entered entirely the slit 70.
  • the dimensions of the slit 70 used to anchor the permanent device characterizes the dimensions of the body 12. This can enter the slit 70 because it is a few decimillimetres less than the slit 70.
  • the operator rotates the whole device of a right angle around the long axis of the rod 1.
  • the device can rotate because the body 12 is completely inside the slit 70, which is in contact with the front side of the bushing 2.
  • the bushing 2 is constrained to the slit 70 as showed in Fig. 5 , because:
  • the last operation to be done by the operator is the fastening of the device to the frame 25 of the vehicle in the zone 27 where there is a threaded hole, intended for the permanent device, where it can be fastened by means of the bolt 5.
  • Fig. 5 the relative position is showed between the metal sheet 3 and the device when the door is completely closed.
  • the Fig. 6 shows the relative position between the metal sheet 3 and the device when the door has been open completely. It should be noted that the Fig. 6 is purely indicative because the actual relative angles between rod 1 and metal sheet 3 or between rod 1 and joint 4 are not replicated to the figure.
  • the bushing 2 can translate of small distances parallel to the sheet 3 and the rod 1 can just rotate around the through hole 10. Thanks to the tapered through cavity 14, the combination of these two motions allow to the bushing 2 to move along the rod when the door rotate around its own axis. Is to be noted that the distance between the rotation axis of the door and the axis of hole 10 is typically of several centimeters, fifteen for example, therefore the rotation of the door triggers a rototranslation of the bushing 2.
  • the chamfer 22 in the rear body 12 comes in contact with the pin 6. If the door is open further the rear body 12 bends enlarging enough that the pin 6 can fit perfectly in the cavity in the rear body 12. At this stage the door is open and a certain extra force is needed to close it.
  • the pin 6 has to be detached by the bushing 2 or, in other words, the gripping force exerted by the narrowing 21 on the pin 6 should be overcome. It is to be noted that in open position the device doesn't hamper the operations to paint the sheet 3. Indeed the tapered cylinder 13, even though is a stopping element, doesn't create shadow against the paint flux on the portion of the sheet that is exposed.
  • This invention includes some advantages that are basically the overcoming of the problems with the prior art previously listed and commented. Below there are the detailed reasons for each problem previously listed, following the same order and letter used for the previous list:
