Description

Dispositif de fixation d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant Device for attaching a fuel trap assembly
L'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant. Plus particulièrement, l'invention concerne un dispositif de fixation d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant pour véhicule et avantageusement pour un véhicule automobile.The invention relates to a device for fixing a fuel trap assembly. More particularly, the invention relates to a device for fixing a fuel filler assembly for a vehicle and advantageously for a motor vehicle.
Actuellement, les trappes à carburant sont solidarisées sur un ensemble d'articulation comprenant un charnon mobile et un charnon fixe, ce dernier étant directement encastré dans le fond du bol solidarisé à la carrosserie. Le bol a pour objectif principal de guider le pistolet de remplissage de carburant vers l'orifice de remplissage.Currently, the fuel traps are secured to a hinge assembly comprising a movable knuckle and a fixed knuckle, the latter being directly embedded in the bottom of the bowl secured to the body. The main purpose of the bowl is to guide the fuel filler nozzle to the filler port.
De part la solidarisation du bol sur la carrosserie, ce dispositif ne permet pas une optimisation de la symétrie de centrage entre la trappe et la carrosserie, de sorte que le jeu visible entre la trappe et la carrosserie est variable d'un véhicule à l'autre, ce qui nuit à l'esthétique du véhicule. Le centrage de ces deux pièces l'une par rapport à l'autre nécessite alors une opération supplémentaire. Cette opération de centrage peut s'avérer longue et donc coûteuse si l'on désire obtenir un produit fini optimum. L'invention a pour objectif de fournir un dispositif de fixation d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant ajusté rapidement et simplement pour obtenir un centrage optimum de l'ensemble de trappe à carburant vis-à-vis de la carrosserie.Due to the fact that the bowl is fastened to the bodywork, this device does not allow an optimization of the centering symmetry between the hatch and the body, so that the clearance visible between the hatch and the bodywork is variable from one vehicle to the other. other, which affects the aesthetics of the vehicle. Centering these two parts relative to each other then requires an additional operation. This centering operation can be long and therefore expensive if one wishes to obtain an optimum end product. It is an object of the invention to provide a device for attaching a fuel filler assembly adjusted quickly and simply to achieve optimum centering of the fuel filler assembly vis-à-vis the bodywork.
Selon un premier aspect de l'invention, il s'agit d'un dispositif de fixation d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant sur une carrosserie d'un véhicule comprenant un coté de caisse pourvu d'une cavité au fond de laquelle se trouve un orifice de remplissage de carburant, l'ensemble de trappe étant composé d'un panneau de trappe, d'un charnon mobile et d'un charnon fixe, la cavité comprenant au moins un bord d'accostage apte à recevoir l'ensemble de trappe sur au moins une partie du pourtour de la cavité.According to a first aspect of the invention, it is a device for attaching a fuel filler assembly to a bodywork of a vehicle comprising a body side provided with a cavity at the bottom of which is located a fuel filling orifice, the hatch assembly being composed of a hatch panel, a movable knuckle and a fixed knuckle, the cavity comprising at least one docking edge adapted to receive the set of hatch on at least a portion of the periphery of the cavity.
Les bords d'accostage étant situés sur la périphérie extérieure de la cavité, il est alors aisé d'ajuster le centrage de l'ensemble de trappe par rapport à la carrosserie. En particulier, le charnon fixe comprend au moins un rebord sensiblement plan apte à venir en appui sur au moins une partie sensiblement plane dudit bord d'accostage du coté de caisse. On pourrait bien évidemment envisager d'autres modes de réalisation tels que des bords comprenant des dépressions et coïncidant entre eux.The docking edges being located on the outer periphery of the cavity, it is then easy to adjust the centering of the hatch assembly relative to the body. In particular, the fixed knuckle comprises at least one substantially plane flange adapted to bear on at least a substantially flat portion of said docking edge of the body side. We could obviously consider other embodiments such as edges including depressions and coinciding with each other.
Avantageusement, la cavité comprend aux moins deux bords d'accostage sur des cotés opposés de ladite cavité. On pourrait également envisager de prévoir un rebord qui s'étend sensiblement sur tout le pourtour de la cavité.Advantageously, the cavity comprises at least two docking edges on opposite sides of said cavity. One could also consider providing a rim that extends substantially around the entire periphery of the cavity.
Selon un mode de réalisation particulier, le charnon fixe comprend au moins un orifice, en alignement avec au moins un orifice d'au moins un bord d'accostage, les orifices étant aptes à recevoir un élément de solidarisation. Les orifices percés au préalable favorisent alors l'ajustage des pièces, le charnon fixe étant alors positionné centré par rapport au pourtour de la cavité.According to a particular embodiment, the fixed knuckle comprises at least one orifice, in alignment with at least one orifice of at least one docking edge, the orifices being able to receive a fastening element. The previously drilled orifices then favor the adjustment of the parts, the fixed knuckle then being positioned centered with respect to the periphery of the cavity.
En particulier, le charnon fixe comprend au moins quatre orifices, en alignement avec au moins quatre orifices d'au moins un bord d'accostage, les orifices étant aptes à recevoir un élément de solidarisation. La multiplication des orifices permet ainsi d'une part un meilleur maintien du charnon fixe et d'autre part un centrage optimum.In particular, the fixed knuckle comprises at least four orifices, in alignment with at least four orifices of at least one docking edge, the orifices being able to receive a fastening element. The multiplication of orifices thus allows on the one hand a better support of the fixed knuckle and on the other hand an optimum centering.
Avantageusement, l'élément de solidarisation est un rivet. L'homme du métier pourrait avantageusement utiliser tout moyen de solidarisation qui lui semblerait adapté tel que par exemple un dispositif vis écrou.Advantageously, the fastening element is a rivet. The person skilled in the art could advantageously use any securing means that he / she would consider suitable, such as, for example, a screw nut device.
En particulier, l'une au moins parmi les pièces suivantes, le charnon fixe, le charnon mobile ou le panneau de trappe, est en métal. On comprend alors aisément que l'ensemble peut être réalisé en métal.In particular, at least one of the following parts, the fixed knuckle, the movable knuckle or the hatch panel, is metal. It is therefore easy to understand that the assembly can be made of metal.
La réalisation des pièces en métal permet notamment de réduire le coût de production et d'assemblage de l'ensemble de la trappe à carburant.The production of metal parts in particular reduces the cost of production and assembly of the entire fuel door.
Selon un autre mode de réalisation, au moins l'une de pièces est en un matériau plastique ou composite.According to another embodiment, at least one of parts is made of a plastic or composite material.
L'invention est maintenant décrite en faisant référence aux dessins, non limitatifs, dans lesquels :The invention is now described with reference to the non-limiting drawings, in which:
La figure 1 est une vue éclatée de l'ensemble de l'invention selon un mode de réalisation particulier. Selon le mode de réalisation représenté figure 1 , il s'agit d'un ensemble de trappe à carburant 10 sur une carrosserie d'un véhicule comprenant un coté de caisse 20. Ce dernier est pourvu d'une cavité 23 munie d'un orifice de remplissage 22 de carburant. L'ensemble de trappe 10 est composé d'un panneau de trappe 12, d'un charnon mobile 14 et d'un charnon fixe 16.Figure 1 is an exploded view of the assembly of the invention according to a particular embodiment. According to the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, it is a fuel trap assembly 10 on a bodywork of a vehicle comprising a body side 20. The latter is provided with a cavity 23 provided with a fuel filling port 22. The hatch assembly 10 is composed of a hatch panel 12, a movable knuckle 14 and a fixed knuckle 16.

Ces derniers sont aptes à recevoir l'ensemble de trappe 10 et plus particulièrement le charnon fixe 16 décrit ci-dessous.In our example, the cavity 23 provided with the filling orifice 22 comprises on its periphery two docking edges 24 and 24 '. These are able to receive the hatch assembly 10 and more particularly the fixed knuckle 16 described below.
Le charnon fixe 16 comprend deux rebords 16' et 16", sensiblement plans, qui viennent en appui sur les parties correspondantes, sensiblement planes, des bords d'accostage 24 et 24' du coté de caisse 20. Les deux bords d'accostage 24 et 24' étant situés sur des cotés opposés de ladite cavité 23 et plus précisément à proximité des bords inférieur et supérieur de la cavité dans l'exemple représenté. Le charnon fixe 16 comprend quatre orifices 18, 18', 18" et 18'", en alignement avec quatre orifices 26, 26', 26" et 26'" répartis sur les bords d'accostage 24 et 24'. Les orifices 18, 26, 18', 26', 18", 26", 18'" et 26'" sont solidarisés deux à deux par un rivet. On pourrait également trouver d'autres modes de solidarisation tels que par vissage.The fixed knuckle 16 comprises two flanges 16 'and 16 ", substantially planar, which bear on the corresponding substantially planar portions of the docking edges 24 and 24' of the body side 20. The two docking edges 24 and 24 'being located on opposite sides of said cavity 23 and more precisely near the lower and upper edges of the cavity in the example shown.The fixed knuckle 16 comprises four orifices 18, 18', 18 "and 18 '" in alignment with four orifices 26, 26 ', 26 "and 26' 'distributed over the mating edges 24 and 24', the orifices 18, 26, 18 ', 26', 18", 26 ", 18 '" and 26 '"are secured in pairs by a rivet, one could also find other modes of joining such as by screwing.
Dans notre exemple, le panneau de trappe 12, le charnon mobile 14 et le charnon fixe 16 sont réalisés en un matériau métallique mais l'on pourrait envisager d'autres matériaux de réalisation tel que par exemple du plastique. In our example, the hatch panel 12, the movable knuckle 14 and the fixed knuckle 16 are made of a metallic material, but other construction materials such as for example plastic could be envisaged.
