Definitions

  • the field of the present invention is that of motion detectors, in particular for home automation installations. It relates more particularly to such a detector, intended to be embedded in an element such as a wall defining the area to be monitored, a ceiling overlooking the area or a part attached to one of them. Such a sensor can, for example, be used to condition the start of luminaires or heating systems.
  • CA-A-2,277,645 has a device intended to be affixed against the underside of a wall such as a ceiling.
  • the device is the combination of a motion sensor and a luminaire, whose activation is conditioned by the detection of movements by the detection cell. Nevertheless, it is not possible for the user to perform a setting of the device, nor in terms of the detection field, nor the duration of switching on of the luminaire, etc.
  • the fact that the device is affixed against the wall, and therefore completely projecting may be outside the aesthetic criteria of the customer and in particular visually incompatible with luminaires such as recessed spots, which protrude from the wall by a few millimeters barely.
  • US-A-6,222,191 describes a motion detector for insertion into a ceiling. It takes, for its projecting portion of the horizontal wall, a dome shape, inside which are located the electronic components. Its mounting system allows it to be fixed even to a thin wall, that is to say without being partially embedded.
  • the device has adjustment means in the form of a mask that can be added to the detection cell to modify the field of view. The setting of the field of view can not be done dynamically and without avoiding disassembly or entering the field of detection.
  • the device has a relatively large volume protruding from the wall to which it is attached, since the dome, projecting, comprises the various electronic elements.
  • US-2007/0064427 presents a device combining detector and luminaire. It comprises four lamps, whose start is controlled by motion detection by an infrared cell. It comprises means for adjusting two of its parameters, in the form sliding sliders. However, these sliders are accessible, for a possible adjustment, after disassembly of the light scattering shell, which encompasses the entire device and which has an opening in which emerges the sensor cell. In addition, the entire device is intended to be fixed to the ceiling, or equivalent, projecting from the latter.
  • EP-A-2 043 065 describes a motion detector, provided with adjustment means accessible to the user, even after the device is installed.
  • the device comprises a sliding cover, taking the form of a movable sleeve, which can be slid over the adjustment means.
  • the cache can not be completely disassociated from the detector. As the cache is outside the detection zone, the setting is not impeded by the position of the cache, masking or not the adjustment means. Nevertheless, because of the elongate structure and the method of attachment, that is to say projecting on the wall, the size of this sensor is very important.
  • DE-A-40 06 631 door on an independent cover, intended to be snapped onto a detector, also forming a protection thereof, and having a marking, which makes it easy to cut parts of this cache in order to modulate the detection field, thus forming a breakable shield for protruding detector.
  • DE-A-94 06 661 door on a spherical-shaped cover, intended to be mounted by snapping on a corresponding shaped sensor, and comprising removable parts, optionally hinged to the frame constituting the cover. It is therefore a pre-cut mask for protruding detector, with spherical head, for modulating the detection field.
  • EP-A-1,887,535 relates to a sensor incorporating, in front of the detection element, a lens, and a movable cover in front of the detection element, to adapt the size of the detection zone.
  • This cache can be moved by the user with a simple tool mobilizing one of the various cinematics considered.
  • EP-A-1,365,370 door on a presence sensor having adjustment means, and incorporating a movable cover in a position that masks or makes visible these adjustment means, this sensor possibly being mounted in a pillar fixed to the ground or suspended.
  • EP-A-1,282,092 proposes a motion detector intended to be at least partially embedded in the wall to which it must be fixed.
  • an adaptation piece is provided, which allows, thanks to gripping claws, the attachment of the sensor to the horizontal wall, so that possibly only the detection cell protrudes from the wall. Nevertheless, this device has no means of adjustment.
  • the present invention aims to overcome a part and preferably all these disadvantages, by proposing a motion detector having a small volume projecting from the wall to which it is attached, which can be adjusted, and without disassembly, without tools and without removing the product, and not leaving, moreover, its adjustment means constantly visible, but having a mask that can not be completely detached from the product and constantly located outside the detection field.
  • the subject of the invention is a motion detector, consisting essentially of a body for receiving the electronic components of this detector, by an optical part comprising a detection cell whose detection zone is delimited by an opening, at the a level of a front face of the motion detector, covered by a room permeable to infrared rays, by means for adjusting at least some of the detector parameters, by a cover, and by means for fixing in a wall, detector in which the receiving body is a built-in component, so that its end face rests on a wall of the element in which it is embedded, said receiving body consisting essentially of a base and a cover, the latter being essentially the portion of the motion detector which is projecting after embedding, wherein in addition the optical part and the adjustment are integrated in the front face or front face, and in which the cover is integrated in the front face of the motion detector, received between the base and the lid, connected thereto, so that it can not be separated from the motion detector, once the latter assembled, movably out of the detection
  • the motion detector 1 essentially consists of a receiving body of the electronic components of this detector, by an optical part comprising a detection cell whose detection zone 4 is delimited by an opening, at a front face of the detector. Movement 1, covered by a room permeable to infrared rays 20, by adjustment means 21 of at least some of the detector parameters, by a cover 2, and by fixing means 22 in a wall.
  • the motion detector 1 is such that the receiving body is a built-in component, so that its end face is supported on a wall of the element in which it is embedded, said receiving body being essentially constituted by a base 7 and a cover 8, the latter being essentially the part of the motion detector 1 which is projecting after embedding.
  • the optical part and the adjustment means 21 are integrated in the front face or front face, and the cover 2 is integrated in the front face of the motion detector 1, received between the base 7 and the cover 8, connected thereto, so that it can not be detached from the motion detector 1, once the latter assembled, movably out of the detection zone 4, the trace left by the cover 2 during its displacement having no intersection with the detection zone 4, so as not to obscure the detection.
  • the body of the motion detector 1 is in the form of a base 7, substantially cylindrical, on which is affixed a cover 8, which is the part of the motion detector 1 visible to the user when, for example, the motion detector 1 is inserted into an element such as a ceiling, a wall, or a part attached to one of them.
  • This cover 8, seen from the front, has a substantially circular shape, larger than the base 7, with however a vacuum that the cover 2 fills.
  • the infrared permeable part 20 may be of cylindrical shape, and dome-like, possibly truncated, as is often done for this kind of room.

  • the infrared permeable piece is fixed to the cover 8.
  • the detection cell is located under this infrared permeable piece 20, once the cover 8 is mounted on the base 7.
  • the detection zone 4 thus obtained, when the opening of the end face is of substantially cylindrical shape and sufficiently large with respect to the detection cell, the shape of a cone, the top of which is the detection cell and the axis of revolution is the detection axis of the cell. This axis of revolution therefore naturally becomes the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4.
  • the cover 2 is also linked to the motion detector 1 at the front face. More precisely, the cover 2 is pressed against the cover 8, this assembly then being fastened to the end surface of the base 7 of the motion detector 1.
  • This connection between the cover 2 and the motion detector 1 is, however, adapted to allow the cover 2 to move relative to the rest of the motion detector 1.
  • the path that can thus perform the cover 2 can be open, namely a segment, an open curve, etc., thus delimiting end positions cache 2, or closed, namely a circle, an ellipse, etc., and plan or not, such as a propeller, for example.

  • the trace left by the cover 2 during its movement has no intersection with the detection zone 4.
  • the second advantage is the ability to stop the cache 2 anywhere in its path, without it intervening in the operation of the motion detector 1, that is to say without it being detected by the motion detector 1.

Description

Le domaine de la présente invention est celui des détecteurs de mouvements, en particulier pour des installations domotiques. Elle concerne plus particulièrement un tel détecteur, destiné à être encastré dans un élément tel qu'un mur délimitant la zone à surveiller, un plafond surplombant la zone ou une pièce fixée sur l'un d'eux. Un tel capteur peut, par exemple, être utilisé pour conditionner la mise en marche de luminaires ou de systèmes de chauffage.The field of the present invention is that of motion detectors, in particular for home automation installations. It relates more particularly to such a detector, intended to be embedded in an element such as a wall defining the area to be monitored, a ceiling overlooking the area or a part attached to one of them. Such a sensor can, for example, be used to condition the start of luminaires or heating systems.

CA-A-2 277 645 présente un dispositif destiné à être apposé contre la face inférieure d'une paroi telle qu'un plafond. Le dispositif est la combinaison d'un capteur de mouvement et d'un luminaire, dont la mise en marche est conditionnée par la détection de mouvements par la cellule de détection. Néanmoins, il n'est pas possible pour l'utilisateur d'effecteur un réglage de l'appareil, ni en terme de champ de détection, ni de durée de mise en marche du luminaire, etc. De plus, le fait que le dispositif soit apposé contre la paroi, et donc complètement en saillie, peut être hors des critères esthétiques du client et en particulier incompatible visuellement avec des luminaires tels que des spots encastrés, qui dépassent de la paroi de quelques millimètres à peine. CA-A-2,277,645 has a device intended to be affixed against the underside of a wall such as a ceiling. The device is the combination of a motion sensor and a luminaire, whose activation is conditioned by the detection of movements by the detection cell. Nevertheless, it is not possible for the user to perform a setting of the device, nor in terms of the detection field, nor the duration of switching on of the luminaire, etc. In addition, the fact that the device is affixed against the wall, and therefore completely projecting, may be outside the aesthetic criteria of the customer and in particular visually incompatible with luminaires such as recessed spots, which protrude from the wall by a few millimeters barely.

US-A-6 222 191 décrit un détecteur de mouvements destiné à être inséré dans un plafond. Il prend, pour sa partie en saillie de la paroi horizontale, une forme de dôme, à l'intérieur duquel sont situés les composants électroniques. Son système de montage lui permet d'être fixé même à une paroi fine, c'est-à-dire sans être partiellement encastré. Le dispositif présente un moyen de réglage sous la forme d'un masque qui peut être ajouté en vis-à-vis de la cellule de détection, afin d'en modifier le champ d'observation. Le réglage du champ d'observation ne peut donc pas se faire de façon dynamique et sans éviter de démonter l'appareil ni de rentrer dans le champ de détection. De plus, le dispositif présente un volume relativement important dépassant de la paroi à laquelle il est fixé, puisque le dôme, en saillie, comprend les différents éléments électroniques. US-A-6,222,191 describes a motion detector for insertion into a ceiling. It takes, for its projecting portion of the horizontal wall, a dome shape, inside which are located the electronic components. Its mounting system allows it to be fixed even to a thin wall, that is to say without being partially embedded. The device has adjustment means in the form of a mask that can be added to the detection cell to modify the field of view. The setting of the field of view can not be done dynamically and without avoiding disassembly or entering the field of detection. In addition, the device has a relatively large volume protruding from the wall to which it is attached, since the dome, projecting, comprises the various electronic elements.

US-2007/0064427 présente un dispositif combinant détecteur et luminaire. Il comporte ainsi quatre lampes, dont la mise en marche est contrôlée par la détection de mouvement par une cellule infrarouge. Il comporte des moyens de réglage de deux de ses paramètres, sous la forme de curseurs coulissants. Néanmoins, ces curseurs ne sont accessibles, pour un éventuel réglage, qu'après démontage de la coque de diffusion de la lumière, qui englobe l'ensemble de l'appareil et qui comporte une ouverture dans laquelle émerge la cellule de détection. De plus, l'ensemble de l'appareil est destiné à être fixé au plafond, ou équivalent, en saillie par rapport à ce dernier. US-2007/0064427 presents a device combining detector and luminaire. It comprises four lamps, whose start is controlled by motion detection by an infrared cell. It comprises means for adjusting two of its parameters, in the form sliding sliders. However, these sliders are accessible, for a possible adjustment, after disassembly of the light scattering shell, which encompasses the entire device and which has an opening in which emerges the sensor cell. In addition, the entire device is intended to be fixed to the ceiling, or equivalent, projecting from the latter.

EP-A-2 043 065 décrit un détecteur de mouvements, muni de moyens de réglage accessibles à l'utilisateur, même une fois l'appareil installé. Afin d'éviter de laisser constamment visibles les moyens de réglage, le dispositif comporte un cache coulissant, prenant la forme d'un manchon mobile, qui peut être glissé sur les moyens de réglage. Pour éviter d'égarer le cache, ce dernier ne peut pas être entièrement désolidarisé du détecteur. Comme le cache se trouve hors de la zone de détection, le réglage n'est pas gêné par la position du cache, masquant ou non les moyens de réglage. Néanmoins, du fait de la structure longiforme et du mode de fixation, c'est-à-dire en saillie sur la paroi, l'encombrement de ce capteur est très important. EP-A-2 043 065 describes a motion detector, provided with adjustment means accessible to the user, even after the device is installed. In order to avoid the means of adjustment being constantly visible, the device comprises a sliding cover, taking the form of a movable sleeve, which can be slid over the adjustment means. To avoid mislaying the cache, the cache can not be completely disassociated from the detector. As the cache is outside the detection zone, the setting is not impeded by the position of the cache, masking or not the adjustment means. Nevertheless, because of the elongate structure and the method of attachment, that is to say projecting on the wall, the size of this sensor is very important.

DE-A-40 06 631 porte sur un cache indépendant, destiné à être encliqueté sur un détecteur, formant aussi une protection de ce dernier, et présentant un marquage, qui permet de facilement découper des parties de ce cache afin de moduler le champ de détection, formant ainsi un occulteur cassable pour détecteur en saillie. DE-A-40 06 631 door on an independent cover, intended to be snapped onto a detector, also forming a protection thereof, and having a marking, which makes it easy to cut parts of this cache in order to modulate the detection field, thus forming a breakable shield for protruding detector.

DE-A-94 06 661 porte sur un cache de forme sphérique, destiné à être monté par encliquetage sur un capteur de forme correspondante, et comportant des pièces amovibles, éventuellement fixées par charnière au cadre constituant ce cache. Il s'agit donc d'un masque prédécoupé pour détecteur en saillie, avec tête sphérique, permettant de moduler le champ de détection. DE-A-94 06 661 door on a spherical-shaped cover, intended to be mounted by snapping on a corresponding shaped sensor, and comprising removable parts, optionally hinged to the frame constituting the cover. It is therefore a pre-cut mask for protruding detector, with spherical head, for modulating the detection field.

EP-A-1 887 535 porte sur un capteur intégrant, devant l'élément de détection, une lentille, ainsi qu'un cache mobile devant l'élément de détection, permettant d'adapter la dimension de la zone de détection. Ce cache peut être bougé par l'utilisateur avec un simple outil mobilisant l'une des différentes cinématiques envisagées. EP-A-1,887,535 relates to a sensor incorporating, in front of the detection element, a lens, and a movable cover in front of the detection element, to adapt the size of the detection zone. This cache can be moved by the user with a simple tool mobilizing one of the various cinematics considered.

EP-A-1 365 370 porte sur un capteur de présence présentant des moyens de réglages, et intégrant un cache déplaçable dans une position qui masque ou rend visible ces moyens de réglages, ce capteur étant éventuellement monté dans un pilier fixé au sol ou suspendu. EP-A-1,365,370 door on a presence sensor having adjustment means, and incorporating a movable cover in a position that masks or makes visible these adjustment means, this sensor possibly being mounted in a pillar fixed to the ground or suspended.

EP-A-1 282 092 propose un détecteur de mouvements destiné à être au moins partiellement encastré dans la paroi à laquelle il doit être fixé. Ainsi, une pièce d'adaptation est prévue, qui permet, grâce à des griffes d'accrochage, la fixation du capteur à la paroi horizontale, de sorte que, éventuellement, seule la cellule de détection dépasse de la paroi. Néanmoins, ce dispositif ne comporte aucun moyen de réglage. EP-A-1,282,092 proposes a motion detector intended to be at least partially embedded in the wall to which it must be fixed. Thus, an adaptation piece is provided, which allows, thanks to gripping claws, the attachment of the sensor to the horizontal wall, so that possibly only the detection cell protrudes from the wall. Nevertheless, this device has no means of adjustment.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier une partie et préférentiellement tous ces inconvénients, en proposant un détecteur de mouvements présentant un faible volume en saillie par rapport à la paroi à laquelle il est fixé, pouvant être reglé, et ce sans démontage, sans outil, et sans désinstallation du produit, et ne laissant pas, en outre, ses moyens de réglage constamment visibles, mais présentant un masque ne pouvant être complètement désolidarisé du produit et constamment situé hors du champ de détection.The present invention aims to overcome a part and preferably all these disadvantages, by proposing a motion detector having a small volume projecting from the wall to which it is attached, which can be adjusted, and without disassembly, without tools and without removing the product, and not leaving, moreover, its adjustment means constantly visible, but having a mask that can not be completely detached from the product and constantly located outside the detection field.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un détecteur de mouvements, essentiellement constitué par un corps de réception des composants électroniques de ce détecteur, par une partie optique comprenant une cellule de détection dont la zone de détection est délimitée par une ouverture, au niveau d'une face frontale du détecteur de mouvements, recouverte par une pièce perméable aux rayons infrarouges, par des moyens de réglage d'au moins certains des paramètres du détecteur, par un cache, et par des moyens de fixation dans une paroi, détecteur dans lequel le corps de réception est un composant encastrable, de sorte que sa face frontale s'appuie sur une paroi de l'élément dans lequel il est encastré, ledit corps de réception étant essentiellement constitué par un socle et un couvercle, ce dernier étant essentiellement la partie du détecteur de mouvements qui se trouve en saillie après encastrement, détecteur dans lequel, en outre, la partie optique et les moyens de réglage sont intégrés dans la face avant ou face frontale, et dans lequel le cache est intégré à la face frontale du détecteur de mouvements, accueilli entre le socle et le couvercle, relié à celle-ci, de sorte à ne pas pouvoir être désolidarisé du détecteur de mouvements, une fois ce dernier assemblé, de manière mobile hors de la zone de détection, la trace laissée par le cache lors de son déplacement ne présentant aucune intersection avec la zone de détection, de manière à ne pas occulter la détection.For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a motion detector, consisting essentially of a body for receiving the electronic components of this detector, by an optical part comprising a detection cell whose detection zone is delimited by an opening, at the a level of a front face of the motion detector, covered by a room permeable to infrared rays, by means for adjusting at least some of the detector parameters, by a cover, and by means for fixing in a wall, detector in which the receiving body is a built-in component, so that its end face rests on a wall of the element in which it is embedded, said receiving body consisting essentially of a base and a cover, the latter being essentially the portion of the motion detector which is projecting after embedding, wherein in addition the optical part and the adjustment are integrated in the front face or front face, and in which the cover is integrated in the front face of the motion detector, received between the base and the lid, connected thereto, so that it can not be separated from the motion detector, once the latter assembled, movably out of the detection zone, the trace left by the cache during its movement having no intersection with the detection zone, so as not to obscure the detection.

L'invention sera mieux comprise, grâce à la description ci-après, qui se rapporte à un mode de réalisation préféré, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, et expliqué avec référence aux dessins schématiques annexés, dans lesquels :

Le détecteur de mouvements 1 est essentiellement constitué par un corps de réception des composants électroniques de ce détecteur, par une partie optique comprenant une cellule de détection dont la zone de détection 4 est délimitée par une ouverture, au niveau d'une face frontale du détecteur de mouvements 1, recouverte par une pièce perméable aux rayons infrarouges 20, par des moyens de réglage 21 d'au moins certains des paramètres du détecteur, par un cache 2, et par des moyens de fixation 22 dans une paroi.The motion detector 1 essentially consists of a receiving body of the electronic components of this detector, by an optical part comprising a detection cell whose detection zone 4 is delimited by an opening, at a front face of the detector. movement 1, covered by a room permeable to infrared rays 20, by adjustment means 21 of at least some of the detector parameters, by a cover 2, and by fixing means 22 in a wall.

Selon l'invention, le détecteur de mouvements 1 est tel que le corps de réception est un composant encastrable, de sorte que sa face frontale s'appuie sur une paroi de l'élément dans lequel il est encastré, ledit corps de réception étant essentiellement constitué par un socle 7 et un couvercle 8, ce dernier étant essentiellement la partie du détecteur de mouvements 1 qui se trouve en saillie après encastrement.According to the invention, the motion detector 1 is such that the receiving body is a built-in component, so that its end face is supported on a wall of the element in which it is embedded, said receiving body being essentially constituted by a base 7 and a cover 8, the latter being essentially the part of the motion detector 1 which is projecting after embedding.

De plus, encore selon l'invention, la partie optique et les moyens de réglage 21 sont intégrés dans la face avant ou face frontale, et le cache 2 est intégré à la face frontale du détecteur de mouvements 1, accueilli entre le socle 7 et le couvercle 8, relié à celle-ci, de sorte à ne pas pouvoir être désolidarisé du détecteur de mouvements 1, une fois ce dernier assemblé, de manière mobile hors de la zone de détection 4, la trace laissée par le cache 2 lors de son déplacement ne présentant aucune intersection avec la zone de détection 4, de manière à ne pas occulter la détection.In addition, according to the invention, the optical part and the adjustment means 21 are integrated in the front face or front face, and the cover 2 is integrated in the front face of the motion detector 1, received between the base 7 and the cover 8, connected thereto, so that it can not be detached from the motion detector 1, once the latter assembled, movably out of the detection zone 4, the trace left by the cover 2 during its displacement having no intersection with the detection zone 4, so as not to obscure the detection.

Ainsi, le corps du détecteur de mouvements 1 se présente sous la forme d'un socle 7, sensiblement cylindrique, sur lequel est apposé un couvercle 8, qui est la partie du détecteur de mouvements 1 visible par l'utilisateur lorsque, par exemple, le détecteur de mouvements 1 est inséré dans un élément tel qu'un plafond, un mur, ou une pièce fixée à l'un d'eux. Ce couvercle 8, vu de face, a une forme sensiblement circulaire, plus grande que le socle 7, avec toutefois un vide que le cache 2 vient combler. La pièce perméable aux infrarouges 20 peut être de forme cylindrique, et semblable à un dôme, éventuellement tronqué, comme cela est souvent réalisé pour ce genre de pièce. Elle est constituée d'une matière telle que les rayonnements infrarouges peuvent passer à travers elle, indépendamment de son aspect translucide ou opaque aux rayons lumineux visibles. Elle est fixée au niveau de la face frontale du détecteur de mouvements 1, et comble une ouverture sensiblement circulaire laissée dans cette dernière.Thus, the body of the motion detector 1 is in the form of a base 7, substantially cylindrical, on which is affixed a cover 8, which is the part of the motion detector 1 visible to the user when, for example, the motion detector 1 is inserted into an element such as a ceiling, a wall, or a part attached to one of them. This cover 8, seen from the front, has a substantially circular shape, larger than the base 7, with however a vacuum that the cover 2 fills. The infrared permeable part 20 may be of cylindrical shape, and dome-like, possibly truncated, as is often done for this kind of room. It consists of a material such that infrared radiation can pass through it, regardless of its translucent or opaque appearance to visible light rays. It is fixed at the front face of the motion detector 1, and fills a substantially circular opening left in the latter.

Dans le mode de réalisation présenté dans les figures, la pièce perméable aux infrarouges est fixée au couvercle 8. La cellule de détection se trouve sous cette pièce perméable aux infrarouges 20, une fois le couvercle 8 monté sur le socle 7. La zone de détection 4 ainsi obtenue prend, lorsque l'ouverture de la face frontale est de forme sensiblement cylindrique et suffisamment grande par rapport à la cellule de détection, la forme d'un cône, dont le sommet est la cellule de détection et l'axe de révolution est l'axe de détection de la cellule. Cet axe de révolution devient donc naturellement l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4.In the embodiment shown in the figures, the infrared permeable piece is fixed to the cover 8. The detection cell is located under this infrared permeable piece 20, once the cover 8 is mounted on the base 7. The detection zone 4 thus obtained, when the opening of the end face is of substantially cylindrical shape and sufficiently large with respect to the detection cell, the shape of a cone, the top of which is the detection cell and the axis of revolution is the detection axis of the cell. This axis of revolution therefore naturally becomes the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4.

Le cache 2 est lui aussi lié au détecteur de mouvements 1 au niveau de la face frontale. Plus précisément, le cache 2 est plaqué contre le couvercle 8, cet assemblage étant alors fixé à la surface d'extrémité du socle 7 du détecteur de mouvements 1. Cette liaison entre le cache 2 et le détecteur de mouvements 1 est, cependant, adaptée pour permettre au cache 2 de se déplacer par rapport au reste du détecteur de mouvements 1. Le trajet que peut ainsi effectuer le cache 2 peut être ouvert, à savoir un segment, une courbe ouverte, etc., délimitant donc des positions d'extrémité du cache 2, ou fermé, à savoir un cercle, une ellipse, etc., ainsi que plan ou non, tel qu'une hélice, par exemple. Dans le mode de réalisation présenté dans les figures, le trajet du cache 2 est un simple segment de droite. Néanmoins, selon l'invention, la trace laissée par le cache 2 lors de son déplacement ne présente aucune intersection avec la zone de détection 4. Cela signifie qu'à tout moment de son déplacement par rapport au reste du détecteur de mouvements 1, le cache 2 reste partiellement lié à celui-ci et ne se trouve pas, même partiellement, dans la zone de détection 4. Cela présente les deux avantages suivants. Le premier est que le cache 2 est toujours lié au détecteur de mouvements 1, et ne peut donc pas être égaré par l'utilisateur qui l'a manipulé, comme cela peut être le cas avec une pièce démontable et amovible. Le second avantage est la possibilité d'arrêter le cache 2 n'importe où sur son trajet, sans pour autant qu'il intervienne dans le fonctionnement du détecteur de mouvements 1, c'est-à-dire sans qu'il puisse être détecté par le détecteur de mouvements 1. Comme expliqué plus bas, cela permet, lorsque le cache 2 est utilisé pour masquer des moyens de réglage 21 du détecteur de mouvements 1, de s'assurer que le cache 2, même déplacé de sorte à laisser apparaître les moyens de réglage 21, ne gêne pas la vérification du bon réglage du détecteur de mouvements.The cover 2 is also linked to the motion detector 1 at the front face. More precisely, the cover 2 is pressed against the cover 8, this assembly then being fastened to the end surface of the base 7 of the motion detector 1. This connection between the cover 2 and the motion detector 1 is, however, adapted to allow the cover 2 to move relative to the rest of the motion detector 1. The path that can thus perform the cover 2 can be open, namely a segment, an open curve, etc., thus delimiting end positions cache 2, or closed, namely a circle, an ellipse, etc., and plan or not, such as a propeller, for example. In the embodiment shown in the figures, the path of the cache 2 is a simple segment of the line. Nevertheless, according to the invention, the trace left by the cover 2 during its movement has no intersection with the detection zone 4. This means that at any moment of its displacement relative to the rest of the movement detector 1, the cache 2 remains partially connected to it and is not found, even partially, in the detection zone 4. This has the following two advantages. The first is that the cache 2 is always linked to the motion detector 1, and can not be lost by the user who manipulated it, as may be the case with a removable and removable part. The second advantage is the ability to stop the cache 2 anywhere in its path, without it intervening in the operation of the motion detector 1, that is to say without it being detected by the motion detector 1. As explained below, this allows, when the cover 2 is used to hide adjustment means 21 of the motion detector 1, to ensure that the cover 2, even moved so as to appear the adjustment means 21, does not interfere with the verification of the correct setting of the motion detector.

Le détecteur de mouvements 1 comporte un moyen de guidage du cache 2 dans son mouvement par rapport au reste du détecteur de mouvements 1, moyen de guidage comprenant une partie fixe et une partie mobile, et dirigeant ledit cache 2 dans un mouvement préférentiellement au moins partiellement perpendiculaire à un axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4. Ce moyen de guidage prend la configuration compatible avec le mouvement que le cache 2 est supposé effectuer. Ainsi, dans le mode de réalisation présenté dans les figures, il s'agit de glissières linéaires parallèles, adaptées pour permettre une simple translation linéaire. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, le moyen de guidage peut être sous forme de pivot, de pivot glissant, de rotule, d'hélice, etc. De plus, le détecteur de mouvements 1 peut, dans d'autres variantes de réalisation, présenter un moyen de guidage du cache 2 composé de plusieurs guidages uniques, tels qu'une glissière, un pivot, une rotule, etc. Le moyen de guidage du cache 2 peut alors combiner des guidages successifs, comme la succession d'une translation puis d'une rotation, dirigées respectivement par un guidage linéaire puis par une liaison pivot, ou alors, comme c'est le cas dans le mode de réalisation représenté dans les figures, combiner des guidages simultanés, comme une seule translation dirigée par deux glissières linéaires.The movement detector 1 comprises a guiding means of the cover 2 in its movement relative to the rest of the motion detector 1, guiding means comprising a fixed part and a movable part, and directing said cover 2 in a movement preferably at least partially perpendicular to an axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4. This guide means takes the configuration compatible with the movement that the cache 2 is supposed to perform. Thus, in the embodiment shown in the figures, it is a question of parallel linear slides adapted to allow a simple linear translation. In other embodiments, the guide means may be in the form of pivot, sliding pivot, ball joint, propeller, etc. In addition, the motion detector 1 may, in other embodiments, have a guiding means of the cover 2 composed of several single guides, such as a slide, a pivot, a ball joint, etc. The guiding means of the cover 2 can then combine successive guides, such as the succession of a translation then of a rotation, respectively directed by a linear guide and then by a pivot connection, or else, as is the case in the embodiment shown in the figures, combine simultaneous guides, as a single translation directed by two linear slides.

Le mouvement qu'effectue le cache 2 dans l'exemple illustré est une translation linéaire, de direction perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4 du détecteur de mouvements 1. En outre, l'axe de symétrie longitudinal du cache passe par le centre du couvercle 8, tout au long du mouvement. Dans une autre variante de réalisation, le mouvement dans lequel le cache 2 est guidé n'est perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 que sur une partie du trajet. On peut ainsi envisager, par exemple, la combinaison simultanée ou successive d'une translation perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3, et d'un pivotement autour d'un axe, lui aussi perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3, ou encore de deux translations, l'une parallèle et l'autre perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3, comme dans une rotation autour d'un axe perpendiculaire à cet axe de symétrie 3. La composante perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 du mouvement effectuée par le cache 2 lui permet d'effectuer un mouvement autour et hors de la zone de détection 4, mais passant très près de la cellule de détection.The movement effected by the cover 2 in the illustrated example is a linear translation, of direction perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4 of the motion detector 1. In addition, the axis longitudinal symmetry of the cache passes through the center of the cover 8, throughout the movement. In another variant embodiment, the movement in which the cover 2 is guided is perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 only over part of the path. One can thus consider, for example, the simultaneous or successive combination of a translation perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3, and a pivot about an axis, also perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3, or two translations, one parallel and the other perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3, as in a rotation about an axis perpendicular to this axis of symmetry 3. The component perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the movement performed by the cover 2 allows it to move around and out of the detection zone 4, but passing very close to the detection cell.

Le détecteur de mouvements comporte au moins un dispositif d'encliquetage du cache 2 dans une position de ce dernier, préférentiellement réalisé sous la forme d'au moins un évidement 5, et d'au moins une partie en saillie 6, destinée à s'insérer dans ledit au moins un évidement 5. Chaque partie en saillie 6 est similaire à un profil en forme de triangle, dont c'est la pointe en saillie qui engage un évidement 5. Un évidement 5 peut, en outre, être débouchant ou non. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, ce dispositif d'encliquetage du cache 2 est conçu de sorte, d'une part, à maintenir le cache 2 dans sa position située à l'extrémité du mouvement la plus proche de la cellule de détection, et, d'autre part, à pouvoir être facilement débloquée par un utilisateur. Dans d'autres modes de réalisation, le détecteur de mouvements 1 comporte plusieurs dispositifs d'encliquetage du cache 2, chacun bloquant le cache 2 dans une autre position de son mouvement. Le cache peut ainsi être bloqué dans plus d'une position de son mouvement, par exemple deux positions d'extrémité et une position intermédiaire. Ce dispositif présente l'intérêt de garantir que le cache ne bouge pas, même, par exemple, sous l'effet de son propre poids.The motion detector comprises at least one latching device of the cover 2 in a position of the latter, preferably made in the form of at least one recess 5, and at least one protruding part 6, intended for inserting into said at least one recess 5. Each projecting portion 6 is similar to a triangle-shaped profile, which is the projecting point which engages a recess 5. A recess 5 may, in addition, be opening or not . In the illustrated embodiment, this latching device of the cover 2 is designed so, on the one hand, to maintain the cover 2 in its position at the end of the movement closest to the detection cell, and on the other hand, to be easily unlocked by a user. In other embodiments, the motion detector 1 comprises several latching devices of the cover 2, each blocking the cover 2 in another position of its movement. The cover can thus be locked in more than one position of its movement, for example two end positions and an intermediate position. This device has the advantage of ensuring that the cache does not move, even, for example, under the effect of its own weight.

Dans le mode réalisation illustré, le dispositif d'encliquetage du cache 2 est disposé au niveau du moyen de guidage du cache 2, le au moins un évidement 5 étant aménagé au niveau de la partie fixe du moyen de guidage du cache 2 et la au moins une partie en saillie 6 étant aménagée au niveau de la partie mobile du moyen de guidage du cache 2, c'est-à-dire sur le cache 2 lui-même. Un autre positionnement du dispositif d'encliquetage du cache 2 reste néanmoins possible sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.In the illustrated embodiment, the latching device of the cover 2 is disposed at the guiding means of the cover 2, the at least one recess 5 being arranged at the fixed part of the guiding means of the cover 2 and the at least one projecting portion 6 being arranged at the mobile part of the guiding means of the cover 2, that is to say on the cover 2 itself. Another positioning of the latching device of the cover 2 remains nevertheless possible without departing from the scope of the invention.

Selon l'invention, le corps de réception est essentiellement constitué par un socle 7 et un couvercle 8, adaptés pour accueillir-entre eux au moins une portion du cache 2, et qui forment ensemble la partie fixe du moyen de guidage du cache 2. En effet, le cache 2 présente au moins une corniche 15 s'étendant dans un plan perpendiculaire à un ou l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4 lorsque le détecteur de mouvements 1 est assemblé, le socle 7 présentant au moins une surface de contact côté socle 16, perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, le couvercle 8 présentant au moins une surface de contact côté couvercle 17, perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4 une fois le détecteur de mouvements 1 assemblé, et la corniche 15 étant plaquée entre une surface de contact côté socle 16 et une surface de contact côté couvercle 17. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, le socle 7 présente deux surfaces de contact côté socle 16, et le couvercle 8 présente deux surfaces de contact côté couvercle 17. Le moyen de guidage du cache 2 est donc partiellement obtenu par la combinaison d'une surface de contact côté socle 16 et d'une surface de contact côté couvercle 17, qui matérialisent la partie fixe du moyen de guidage du cache 2, ainsi que d'une corniche 15, qui matérialise la partie mobile du moyen de guidage du cache 2. Chaque corniche 15 est donc une portion du cache 2 accueillie entre, d'une part, le socle 7 au travers d'une surface de contact côté socle 16, et, d'autre part, le couvercle 8, au travers d'une surface de contact côté couvercle 17. Comme les surfaces de contact côté socle 16 et les surfaces de contact côté couvercle 17 s'étendent, après assemblage du détecteur de mouvements 1, perpendiculairement à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, le cache 2 est contraint à se déplacer dans cette direction. Deux évidements de forme adaptée sont aménagés dans le couvercle 8, afin de permettre la circulation du cache 2, et plus particulièrement de la corniche 15. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, ces évidements sont de forme linéaire, pour être compatibles avec le déplacement du cache 2 qui se fait selon un segment de droite.According to the invention, the receiving body essentially consists of a base 7 and a cover 8, adapted to receive between them at least a portion of the cover 2, and which together form the fixed part of the guiding means of the cover 2. Indeed, the cover 2 has at least one cornice 15 extending in a plane perpendicular to one or the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4 when the motion detector 1 is assembled, the base 7 having at least one contact surface on the base side 16, perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, the cover 8 having at least one cover-side contact surface 17, perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4 once the motion detector 1 is assembled, and the ledge 15 is pressed between a base-side contact surface 16 and a cover-side contact surface 17. In the illustrated embodiment, the base 7 has two contact surfaces. and the cover 8 has two contact surfaces on the cover side 17. The guiding means of the cover 2 is thus partially obtained by the combination of a base-side contact surface 16 and a contact surface on the cover side. 17, which materialize the fixed portion of the guiding means of the cover 2, as well as a cornice 15, which materializes the movable portion of the guiding means of the cover 2. Each ledge 15 is a portion of the cover 2 received between, d on the one hand, the base 7 through a base-side contact surface 16, and on the other hand, the cover 8, through a cover-side contact surface 17. As the base-side contact surfaces 16 and the cover-side contact surfaces 17 extend, after assembly of the movement detector 1, perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, the cover 2 is forced to move in this direction. Two recesses of suitable shape are arranged in the cover 8, to allow the circulation of the cover 2, and more particularly of the cornice 15. In the illustrated embodiment, these recesses are of linear shape, to be compatible with the movement of the cache 2 which is done according to a line segment.

Le couvercle 8 comporte au moins un manchon 9 et le socle 7 comporte au moins une ouverture 10, préférentiellement chacune de section circulaire, permettant l'assemblage entre le couvercle 8 et le socle 7 par bouterollage. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, le couvercle comporte quatre manchons. Ces manchons sont assimilables à des portions de tube creux, dont l'axe est parallèle à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, une fois le couvercle 8 monté sur le socle 7. A la base de chacun de ces manchons sont disposés des nervures, et plus exactement quatre, ayant pour but, entre autres, de mieux solidariser le manchon 9 au couvercle 8. Chaque manchon 9 est destiné à s'enfiler partiellement à travers une des ouvertures 10. Ainsi, si le couvercle 8 ne comporte qu'un manchon 9, il devient nécessaire de prévoir un dispositif de maintien en rotation du couvercle 8 autour de ce manchon 9. Si le couvercle 8 et le socle 7 en comptent au moins deux, ou si le manchon a une section non circulaire et s'opposant suffisamment à la rotation, un tel dispositif n'est plus nécessaire. Les ouvertures 10 sont disposées sur une couronne plane 23, faisant partie du socle 7, perpendiculaire à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, située à l'extrémité du socle 7 proche de la cellule de détection, et dépassant de la partie sensiblement cylindrique du socle 7. Les couples de manchon 9 et d'ouverture 10 permettent la fixation du couvercle 8 sur le socle 7 par bouterollage, ce qui permet d'obtenir un mode d'assemblage peu épais.The cover 8 comprises at least one sleeve 9 and the base 7 comprises at least one opening 10, preferably each of circular section, allowing the connection between the cover 8 and the base 7 by pegging. In the illustrated embodiment, the cover has four sleeves. These sleeves can be assimilated to hollow tube portions whose axis is parallel to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone. 4, once the cover 8 mounted on the base 7. At the base of each of these sleeves are arranged ribs, and more exactly four, whose purpose, among other things, to better secure the sleeve 9 to the cover 8. Each sleeve 9 is intended to partially pass through one of the openings 10. Thus, if the cover 8 has only one sleeve 9, it becomes necessary to provide a device for holding the lid 8 in rotation around this sleeve 9. If the cover 8 and the base 7 have at least two, or if the sleeve has a non-circular section and opposing sufficiently to the rotation, such a device is no longer necessary. The openings 10 are disposed on a flat ring 23, forming part of the base 7, perpendicular to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, situated at the end of the base 7 close to the detection cell, and protruding from the substantially cylindrical portion of the base 7. The sleeve 9 and opening 10 couples allow the fixing of the cover 8 on the base 7 by bouterollage, which provides a thin assembly mode.

Après encastrement du détecteur de mouvements 1 dans une paroi, telle qu'un mur ou un plafond, par exemple, c'est la couronne plane 23 qui délimite ce qui est visible par l'utilisateur. C'est en effet la couronne plane 23 qui se retrouve apposée contre la paroi de l'élément auquel le détecteur de mouvements 1 est fixé. Ainsi, la partie du détecteur de mouvements qui se trouve en saillie est essentiellement le couvercle 8. Afin d'éviter que le détecteur de mouvements 1 ne soit trop visible ou ne brise la ligne esthétique d'éventuels spots adjacents, le couvercle 8 a une épaisseur, mesurée dans le sens du ou d'un axe de symétrie 3 de la zone détection 4, entre 4 et 8 mm.After embedding the motion detector 1 in a wall, such as a wall or a ceiling, for example, it is the flat ring 23 which delimits what is visible to the user. It is indeed the flat ring 23 which is found affixed against the wall of the element to which the motion detector 1 is fixed. Thus, the portion of the motion detector that is projecting is essentially the cover 8. In order to prevent the motion detector 1 from being too visible or breaking the aesthetic line of any adjacent spots, the cover 8 has a thickness, measured in the direction of or an axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, between 4 and 8 mm.

Le détecteur de mouvements selon l'invention comporte, en outre, au moins un moyen de butée du cache 2 dans une position de ce dernier, tel que la combinaison d'au moins un ergot 11 ; 12, situé sur le socle 7 ou sur le couvercle 8, et d'au moins une surface de butée 13 ; 14 du cache 2, sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction de déplacement du cache 2, qui butent l'un contre l'autre. Il comporte des, et préférentiellement au moins un, moyens de butée du cache 2 dans deux, et préférentiellement au moins une, position du cache 2. Chacun des moyens de butée du cache 2 est réalisé, dans la configuration illustrée, sous la forme d'un, et préférentiellement au moins un, ergot 11 ou 12, situé sur le socle 7 ou le couvercle 8, et d'une, et préférentiellement au moins une, surface de butée 13 ou 14 du cache 2, sensiblement perpendiculaire à la direction de déplacement du cache 2, ergot et surface de butée butant l'un contre l'autre.The motion detector according to the invention further comprises at least one stop means of the cover 2 in a position of the latter, such as the combination of at least one lug 11; 12, located on the base 7 or on the cover 8, and at least one abutment surface 13; 14 of the cover 2, substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the cover 2, which abut against each other. It comprises of, and preferably at least one, stop means of the cover 2 in two, and preferably at least one, position of the cover 2. Each stop means of the cover 2 is made, in the illustrated configuration, in the form of one, and preferably at least one, lug 11 or 12, located on the base 7 or the cover 8, and of one, and preferably at least one, surface of stop 13 or 14 of the cover 2, substantially perpendicular to the direction of movement of the cover 2, pin and abutment surface abutting against each other.

Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, le dispositif présente quatre moyens de butée, dans deux positions différentes. La première position est celle où le cache 2 est le plus proche de l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4 lorsque le détecteur de mouvements est assemblé. Deux moyens de butée stoppent le cache 2 dans cette position. Ainsi, c'est le couvercle 8 qui porte les deux ergots 11, chacun positionné à l'extrémité d'un des deux moyens de guidage la plus proche de l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, afin de stopper le cache 2 dans son mouvement en direction de cet axe de symétrie 3. La seconde position est celle où le cache 2 est le plus éloigné de l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4. Pour stopper le cache 2 dans son éloignement par rapport à l'axe de symétrie 3, c'est le socle 7 qui porte deux ergots 12, chacun situé sur un des deux moyens de guidage, à leur extrémité la plus éloignée de l'axe de symétrie 3. Les surfaces de butée 14 disposées sur le cache 2, viennent alors chacune en contact d'un des ergots 12.In the illustrated embodiment, the device has four stop means in two different positions. The first position is where the cover 2 is closest to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4 when the motion detector is assembled. Two stop means stop the cover 2 in this position. Thus, it is the cover 8 which carries the two lugs 11, each positioned at the end of one of the two guide means closest to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, in order to stop the 2 cache in its movement towards this axis of symmetry 3. The second position is the one where the cache 2 is furthest from the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4. To stop the cache 2 in its removal by relative to the axis of symmetry 3, it is the base 7 which carries two lugs 12, each located on one of the two guide means, at their end farthest from the axis of symmetry 3. The abutment surfaces 14 arranged on the cover 2, then each come into contact with one of the lugs 12.

De plus, le cache 2 présente une encoche 18 qui créé un interstice entre le cache 2 et le reste du détecteur de mouvements 1, lorsque le cache 2 est dans au moins une des positions d'arrêt. Le cache 2 présente une encoche 18 qui créé un interstice entre le cache 2 et le reste du détecteur de mouvements 1, lorsque le cache 2 est dans au moins une des positions d'arrêt. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, lorsque le cache 2 est dans sa position la plus proche de l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, il demeure un interstice entre le cache 2 et la pièce perméable aux infrarouges 20. Cet interstice permet à l'utilisateur de déplacer plus facilement le cache 2. Ainsi, l'encoche 18 est, dans tous les modes de réalisation envisageables, conçue et positionnée sur le cache 2 de sorte à offrir une face contre laquelle un effort met en mouvement le cache 2 lorsque celui-ci est monté.In addition, the cover 2 has a notch 18 which creates a gap between the cover 2 and the rest of the motion detector 1, when the cover 2 is in at least one of the stop positions. The cover 2 has a notch 18 which creates a gap between the cover 2 and the rest of the motion detector 1, when the cover 2 is in at least one of the stop positions. In the illustrated embodiment, when the cover 2 is in its position closest to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, there remains a gap between the cover 2 and the infrared permeable part 20. This interstice allows the user to more easily move the cover 2. Thus, the notch 18 is, in all conceivable embodiments, designed and positioned on the cover 2 so as to offer a face against which a force sets in motion the cache 2 when it is mounted.

Le cache 2, lorsqu'il est le plus proche d'un ou de l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4, s'étend depuis le bord libre 19 du détecteur de mouvements 1 et jusqu'à la pièce perméable aux rayons infrarouges 20 délimitant la zone de détection 4. Un évidement de forme adéquate est prévu dans le couvercle 8.The cover 2, when it is closest to one or the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4, extends from the free edge 19 of the motion detector 1 and to the permeable piece Infrared rays 20 delimiting the detection zone 4. A recess of adequate shape is provided in the cover 8.

Enfin, le cache 2 occulte au moins partiellement les moyens de réglage 21, dans une de ses positions, et les laisse au moins partiellement visibles et accessibles, et ce sans démontage du cache 2 ni désassemblage, même partiel, du dispositif, dans une autre de ses positions. Le détecteur de mouvements comprend des moyens de réglage 21 de certains de ses paramètres et le mouvement du cache 2 se fait le long d'un segment de droite, entre deux positions d'extrémité. Dans une position du cache 2, ce dernier laisse les moyens de réglage entièrement, et préférentiellement au moins partiellement, visibles et accessibles. Dans la configuration illustrée, le cache 2 déborde alors de la couronne plane 23, comme cette position correspond à une position où le cache 2 est le plus éloigné de l'axe de symétrie 3. Dans une autre position du cache 2, ce dernier occulte, et ce, préférentiellement au moins partiellement, les moyens de réglage 21. Dans la configuration illustrée, le cache 2 ne déborde alors pas de la couronne plane 23. Les moyens de réglage 21 prennent la forme de vis, dont la rotation définit la valeur du paramètre réglé. Ces moyens de réglage s'enfoncent dans le socle 7 parallèlement à l'axe de symétrie 3 de la zone de détection 4.Finally, the cover 2 at least partially obscures the adjustment means 21, in one of its positions, and leaves them at least partially visible and accessible, and without disassembling the cache 2 or disassembly, even partial, of the device, in another of its positions. The motion detector comprises adjustment means 21 for certain of its parameters and the movement of the cover 2 is along a line segment between two end positions. In a position of the cover 2, the latter leaves the adjustment means entirely, and preferably at least partially, visible and accessible. In the configuration illustrated, the cover 2 then protrudes from the flat ring 23, as this position corresponds to a position where the cover 2 is furthest from the axis of symmetry 3. In another position of the cover 2, the latter occult at least partially, the adjustment means 21. In the configuration illustrated, the cover 2 does not then project beyond the flat ring gear 23. The adjustment means 21 take the form of screws whose rotation defines the value of the parameter set. These adjustment means sink into the base 7 parallel to the axis of symmetry 3 of the detection zone 4.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et représenté aux dessins annexés. Des modifications restent possibles, notamment du point de vue de la constitution des divers éléments ou par substitution d'équivalents techniques, sans sortir pour autant du domaine de protection de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the accompanying drawings. Modifications are possible, particularly from the point of view of the constitution of the various elements or by substitution of technical equivalents, without departing from the scope of protection of the invention.
