Abstract

The device has a support (7) and a guide (9) integrated to a carriage (1) or a platform (2). The support is mounted pivotingly with respect to an axis perpendicular to a rotation axis of the platform. The guide receives a fastener (13) which is secured to a detachable part (4a) of a connector (4). An end of the guide forms abutment surfaces for the fastener of the connector so as to uncouple two parts of the connector when the platform rotates beyond its extreme position, where pivoting of the support assures orientation of coaxial uncoupling efforts with the connector.

Description

Le domaine technique de l'invention est celui des dispositifs permettant de désaccoupler les deux parties d'un connecteur.The technical field of the invention is that of devices for uncoupling the two parts of a connector.

Il est parfois nécessaire d'assurer un tel désaccouplement sans intervention humaine. C'est le cas notamment lorsqu'une connexion électrique est assurée entre deux pièces mobiles l'une par rapport à l'autre et que l'on souhaite éviter une destruction de la connexion au-delà d'un mouvement d'une certaine amplitude.It is sometimes necessary to ensure such decoupling without human intervention. This is particularly the case when an electrical connection is provided between two moving parts with respect to each other and that it is desired to avoid destruction of the connection beyond a movement of a certain amplitude. .

On connaît par le brevet EP-1426724 un dispositif assurant la liaison électrique entre une masse reculante d'une arme et un berceau fixe. Ce dispositif comprend un connecteur comprenant une prise mâle et une prise femelle, une des prises se dégageant de l'autre lors du recul de l'arme.We know by the patent EP-1426724 a device providing the electrical connection between a recoil mass of a weapon and a fixed cradle. This device comprises a connector comprising a male plug and a socket, one of the jacks disengaging from the other during the retreat of the weapon.

Cette solution est spécifique d'une alimentation électrique pour une arme électrothermique. Un tel connecteur désaccouplable automatiquement ne fonctionne que pour un mouvement de translation relative entre les deux parties de l'arme.This solution is specific to a power supply for an electrothermal weapon. Such a detachable connector automatically operates only for a relative translational movement between the two parts of the weapon.

L'invention a pour but de proposer un dispositif de désaccouplement automatique qui permet d'assurer la séparation des deux parties d'un connecteur pour des mouvements de type pivotement.The object of the invention is to propose an automatic uncoupling device which makes it possible to ensure the separation of the two parts of a connector for pivot-type movements.

Ainsi, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif permettant le désaccouplement automatique des deux parties d'un connecteur destiné à assurer un raccordement entre une plate-forme d'un équipement et un affût, la plate-forme étant montée pivotante par rapport à l'affût, et un moyen de liaison souple étant prévu entre le connecteur et la plate-forme ou l'affût afin d'accompagner le pivotement de la plate-forme jusqu'à au moins une position extrême, dispositif caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend d'une part un support qui est solidaire de l'affût ou de la plate-forme, et d'autre part un guide solidaire respectivement de la plate-forme ou de l'affût, le support étant monté pivotant relativement à un axe sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation de la plate-forme et portant une partie fixe du connecteur, le guide recevant par ailleurs de façon coulissante une attache qui est solidaire d'une partie détachable du connecteur, la longueur du guide étant choisie de façon à autoriser le débattement de la plate-forme jusqu'à sa position extrême, au moins une extrémité du guide formant une surface de butée pour l'attache de connecteur de façon à désaccoupler les deux parties du connecteur lorsque la plate-forme pivote au-delà de sa position extrême, le pivotement du support de connecteur assurant une orientation de l'effort de désaccouplement sensiblement coaxiale avec le connecteur.Thus, the invention relates to a device for the automatic disconnection of the two parts of a connector intended to provide a connection between a platform of a device and a carriage, the platform being pivotally mounted relative to the and a flexible connection means being provided between the connector and the platform or the carriage to accompany the pivoting of the platform to at least one extreme position, characterized in that comprises on the one hand a support which is integral with the carriage or the platform, and on the other hand a guide secured respectively to the platform or the carriage, the support being pivotally mounted relative to an axis substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the platform and carrying a fixed part of the connector, the guide further slidably receiving a fastener which is integral with a detachable part of the connector, the length of the guide being chosen so as to allow the movement of the platform to its extreme position, at least one end of the guide forming an abutment surface for the connector fastener so as to uncouple the two parts of the connector when the platform pivots beyond its end position, the pivoting of the connector support providing an orientation of the decoupling force substantially coaxial with the connector.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation, le guide sera solidaire de l'affût et le support sera solidaire de la plate-forme.According to a particular embodiment, the guide will be integral with the carriage and the support will be secured to the platform.

Le guide aura avantageusement une longueur autorisant un débattement de la plate-forme d'au moins 30° de part et d'autre d'une position médiane sans qu'il n'y ait de déconnexion.The guide will advantageously have a length allowing a clearance of the platform of at least 30 ° on either side of a median position without there being disconnection.

Le guide pourra être formé par une tige courbe solidaire d'un étrier.The guide may be formed by a curved rod secured to a stirrup.

L'attache pourra être formée par un câble entourant la tige, le câble ayant une longueur telle qu'il exerce une traction sur la partie détachable du connecteur lorsqu'il est en butée avec une extrémité du guide, le moyen de liaison souple n'étant pas contraint en traction.The clip may be formed by a cable surrounding the rod, the cable having a length such that it pulls on the detachable part of the connector when it abuts with one end of the guide, the flexible connection means being not forced into traction.

Le support pourra être formé par une équerre portant un pivot.The support may be formed by a bracket bearing a pivot.

Le connecteur pourra être un connecteur électrique.The connector may be an electrical connector.

Selon une variante, le guide pourra être solidaire d'un boîtier électronique sur lequel se raccordera le moyen de liaison souple portant la partie détachable du connecteurAccording to one variant, the guide may be integral with an electronic box to which the flexible connecting means carrying the detachable portion of the connector will be connected.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va suivre d'un mode particulier de réalisation, description faite en référence aux dessins annexés et dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique d'un dispositif selon l'invention,
  • la figure 2 est une vue du même dispositif en coupe partielle suivant le plan dont la trace AA est repérée à la figure 1,
  • la figure 3 est une vue de dessus du guide,
  • les figures 4a et 4b sont analogues à la figure 1 mais montrent les positions de pivotement extrêmes de la plate-forme par rapport à l'affût avant déconnexion, et
  • la figure 5 montre le dispositif après déconnexion.
The invention will be better understood on reading the following description of a particular embodiment, a description given with reference to the appended drawings and in which:
  • the figure 1 is a schematic view of a device according to the invention,
  • the figure 2 is a view of the same device in partial section along the plane whose track AA is located at the figure 1 ,
  • the figure 3 is a top view of the guide,
  • the Figures 4a and 4b are analogous to the figure 1 but show the extreme pivoting positions of the platform relative to the carriage before disconnection, and
  • the figure 5 shows the device after disconnection.

On a représenté schématiquement aux figures 1 et 2 une plate-forme 2 d'un équipement et un affût 1.Diagrammatically figures 1 and 2 a platform 2 of equipment and a lookout 1.

La plate-forme 2 pourra porter un système d'arme, par exemple une artillerie (non représentée) et l'affût 1 portant cette artillerie pourra être constitué par un châssis de véhicule ou encore être constitué par une embase portant des roues et des bras de stabilisation permettant le tir de l'artillerie.The platform 2 may carry a weapon system, for example an artillery (not shown) and the carriage 1 carrying this artillery may be constituted by a vehicle frame or be constituted by a base carrying wheels and arms stabilization system for firing artillery.

Ces éléments ne font pas partie de la présente invention et il est inutile de les décrire plus en détails.These elements are not part of the present invention and need not be described in more detail.

La plate-forme 2 est montée pivotante par rapport à l'affût 1 autour d'un axe 3 qui est ici vertical.The platform 2 is pivotally mounted relative to the carriage 1 about an axis 3 which is here vertical.

Il est nécessaire d'assurer une liaison électrique entre la plate-forme 2 et l'affût 1 et cette liaison doit pouvoir accompagner dans une certaine mesure le pivotement de la plate-forme autour de son axe 3. La liaison électrique comprend un connecteur 4 qui est constitué d'une première partie 4a et d'une seconde partie 4b complémentaire de la première partie (une partie mâle et une partie femelle, la partie mâle pouvant être indifféremment la première ou la seconde partie).It is necessary to provide an electrical connection between the platform 2 and the carriage 1 and this connection must be able to accompany to a certain extent the pivoting of the platform around its axis 3. The electrical connection comprises a connector 4 which consists of a first part 4a and a second part 4b complementary to the first part (a male part and a female part, the male part may be indifferently the first part or the second part).

La première partie 4a ou partie détachable est raccordée par un moyen de liaison souple 5 (tel un câble) à un boîtier électronique 6 solidaire de l'affût 1.The first part 4a or detachable part is connected by a flexible connection means 5 (such as a cable) to an electronic box 6 integral with the carriage 1.

La partie fixe 4b du connecteur est solidaire d'un support 7 (par exemple liée par un écrou). Le support 7 est monté pivotant par rapport à la plate-forme 2 et relativement à un axe (ou pivot) 8 sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'axe de rotation 3 de la plate-forme 2. Ce support 7 est constitué par une équerre en tôle comportant deux nervures de renfort latérales 7a,7b. La partie fixe 4b du connecteur est reliée par une autre liaison souple 14 à un équipement électrique ou électronique (non représenté).The fixed part 4b of the connector is secured to a support 7 (for example linked by a nut). The support 7 is pivotally mounted relative to the platform 2 and relative to an axis (or pivot) 8 substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation 3 of the platform 2. This support 7 is constituted by a sheet metal bracket having two reinforcing ribs lateral 7a, 7b. The fixed part 4b of the connector is connected by another flexible connection 14 to an electrical or electronic equipment (not shown).

Le boîtier électronique 6 porte un guide 9 qui est plus particulièrement visible sur la figure 3. Ce guide 9 est constitué ici par une tige courbée 10 qui est solidaire d'un étrier 11 en tôle pliée comportant deux ailes latérales 11a et 11b sur lesquelles se fixe la tige 10 par des vis 12.The electronic box 6 carries a guide 9 which is more particularly visible on the figure 3 . This guide 9 is constituted here by a curved rod 10 which is integral with a stirrup 11 of folded sheet having two lateral wings 11a and 11b on which the rod 10 is fixed by screws 12.

Le guide 9 pourrait bien entendu être fixé sur une autre partie de l'affût 1 que sur le boîtier 6.The guide 9 could of course be fixed on another part of the carriage 1 on the housing 6.

Le guide 9 reçoit de façon coulissante une attache 13 qui est solidaire de la partie détachable 4a du connecteur.The guide 9 slidably receives a clip 13 which is integral with the detachable portion 4a of the connector.

L'attache 13 pourra par exemple être constituée par un câble souple qui sera serti sur la partie détachable 4a du connecteur et qui entourera la tige 10 du guide 9. La figure 2 montre ainsi que le câble est replié de façon à former deux branches 13a et 13b qui se rejoignent en entourant la tige 10.The fastener 13 may for example be constituted by a flexible cable which will be crimped on the detachable part 4a of the connector and which will surround the rod 10 of the guide 9. figure 2 shows that the cable is folded so as to form two branches 13a and 13b which meet by surrounding the rod 10.

La longueur du guide 9 est choisie de façon à autoriser le pivotement de la plate-forme 2 jusqu'à une position extrême.The length of the guide 9 is chosen so as to allow the pivoting of the platform 2 to an extreme position.

On a représenté aux figures 4a et 4b la plate-forme 2 dans ses deux positions de pivotement extrêmes par rapport à l'affût 1. On voit que sur la figure 4a l'affût a pivoté d'un angle Ω1 (respectivement Ω2) autour de son axe 3. Le support 7 du connecteur 4 accompagne ce pivotement en pivotant lui-même par rapport à son axe 8. La longueur du moyen de liaison souple 5 est par ailleurs choisie suffisamment longue pour qu'il ne s'exerce aucune traction sur ce moyen 5 lors du mouvement de pivotement.Representatives Figures 4a and 4b the platform 2 in its two extreme pivoting positions with respect to the carriage 1. It can be seen that on the figure 4a the carriage has rotated by an angle Ω1 (respectively Ω2) about its axis 3. The support 7 of the connector 4 accompanies this pivoting by pivoting itself with respect to its axis 8. The length of the flexible connection means 5 is Moreover, it is chosen long enough that it does not exert any traction on this means 5 during the pivoting movement.

On voit sur les figures 4a et 4b que lorsque la plate-forme 2 se trouve dans ses deux positions extrêmes, l'attache 13, liée au connecteur 4, arrive en butée contre l'une ou l'autre des ailes latérales 11a et 11b du guide 9 qui forment des surfaces de butée pour cette attache 13.We see on Figures 4a and 4b when the platform 2 is in its two extreme positions, the fastener 13, connected to the connector 4, abuts against one or other of the lateral wings 11a and 11b of the guide 9 which form stop for this clip 13.

Ainsi, lorsque la plate-forme 2 pivote au-delà de l'une ou de l'autre de ses positions extrêmes, il s'exercera un effort F1 ou F2 suivant la direction qui est alors celle de l'attache 13. Grâce au pivotement du support 7 du connecteur, cet effort est coaxial avec le connecteur 4 et il assurera le désaccouplement des deux parties 4a et 4b du connecteur sans détériorer, ni le connecteur 4 ni le moyen de liaison souple 5.Thus, when the platform 2 pivots beyond one or the other of its extreme positions, it will exert a force F1 or F2 in the direction which is then that of 13. By virtue of the pivoting of the support 7 of the connector, this force is coaxial with the connector 4 and it will ensure the uncoupling of the two parts 4a and 4b of the connector without damaging the connector 4 and the flexible connection means 5.

On a représenté à la figure 5 la plate-forme 2 et l'affût 1 après un pivotement au-delà de la position représentée à la figure 4a. Le connecteur 4 est désaccouplé. La partie détachable 4a reste solidaire de l'attache 13. La partie fixe 4b reste solidaire de l'équerre 7.We have shown figure 5 the platform 2 and the carriage 1 after pivoting beyond the position shown in FIG. figure 4a . The connector 4 is uncoupled. The detachable part 4a remains attached to the fastener 13. The fixed part 4b remains integral with the bracket 7.

Cette équerre 7 qui pivote librement suivant son axe 8 reprend sa position d'origine sensiblement verticale telle qu'elle était visible sur les figures 1 et 2.This bracket 7 which pivots freely along its axis 8 resumes its position of substantially vertical origin as it was visible on the figures 1 and 2 .

On a donné sur l'exemple décrit une forme au guide 9 qui est symétrique par rapport à un plan médian AA (figure 1). Ainsi les positions extrêmes (figure 4a et 4b) conduisant au désaccouplement sont symétriques l'une de l'autre par rapport à ce plan AA. Il serait bien entendu possible de donner au guide 9 une forme non symétrique ce qui autoriserait pour la plate-forme 2 un pivotement d'amplitude maximale différente suivant un sens de rotation et l'autre sens.The example described has given a shape to the guide 9 which is symmetrical with respect to a median plane AA ( figure 1 ). Thus the extreme positions ( figure 4a and 4b ) leading to the uncoupling are symmetrical to each other with respect to this plane AA. It would of course be possible to give the guide 9 a non-symmetrical shape which would allow for the platform 2 a maximum amplitude of rotation different in one direction of rotation and the other direction.

On voit que grâce à l'invention on évite toute détérioration accidentelle des connecteurs et des moyens de liaison lorsque le pivotement de la plate-forme 2 par rapport à l'affût 1 excède une certaine valeur.It can be seen that, thanks to the invention, accidental deterioration of the connectors and connection means is avoided when the pivoting of the platform 2 relative to the carriage 1 exceeds a certain value.

Ceci est particulièrement utile pour les systèmes d'arme de type artillerie de campagne dans lesquels la plate-forme portant le canon peut adopter deux positions très différentes, une position de tir et une position de transport, le pivotement pour passer d'une position à l'autre étant de grande amplitude (pratiquement 180°) alors que les pivotements en position de tir sont d'amplitude réduite (plus ou moins 45° au maximum). Il est alors possible de passer rapidement d'une position de tir à une position de transport sans risque de destruction des moyens de connexion entre plate-forme et affût.This is particularly useful for field artillery weapon systems in which the platform carrying the gun can take two very different positions, a firing position and a transport position, pivoting from one position to another. the other being of great amplitude (practically 180 °) whereas the pivotings in firing position are of reduced amplitude (plus or minus 45 ° at the maximum). It is then possible to move rapidly from a firing position to a transport position without the risk of destroying the means of connection between platform and carriage.

L'invention a été décrite ici en référence à un connecteur électrique. Il serait bien entendu possible d'adapter l'invention à un autre type de connecteur, par exemple fluidique ou hydraulique. On prévoira cependant des moyens de sécurité particuliers pour stopper l'alimentation en fluide avant tout mouvement de pivotement au-delà des valeurs extrêmes.The invention has been described herein with reference to an electrical connector. It would of course be possible to adapt the invention to another type of connector, for example fluidic or hydraulic. However, special safety means will be provided to stop the fluid supply before any pivoting movement beyond the extreme values.
