L'invention a donc pour objectif de palier ces inconvénients de l'art antérieur en permettant de réduire les temps et les coûts de production ainsi que d'assemblage de l'antenne et du commutateur sur le stator.The invention therefore aims to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art by reducing the time and cost of production and assembly of the antenna and the switch on the stator.

Un verrou d'antivol comprend classiquement un stator et un rotor pouvant être entraîné en rotation dans le stator, par exemple au moyen d'une clé conforme comportant un identifiant électronique introduite dans une entrée de clé disposée sur une extrémité du rotor.An antitheft lock conventionally comprises a stator and a rotor that can be rotated in the stator, for example by means of a corresponding key comprising an electronic identifier introduced into a key inlet disposed on one end of the rotor.
Dans l'exemple décrit l'antivol est destiné à commander le démarrage du véhicule.In the example described, the antitheft device is intended to control the starting of the vehicle.
Selon l'invention, le verrou est équipé pour cela d'un module de commande 1 représenté sur les
L'antenne 5 coopère par échanges de signaux avec un émetteur prévu par exemple dans une tête de clé non représentée.The
De plus, l'antenne 5 est reliée électriquement, par exemple par le biais d'un premier connecteur de raccordement 9, à une unité d'identification, de préférence embarquée sur le véhicule, et transmet les signaux émis à cette unité d'identification.In addition, the
L'unité d'identification analyse et traite ces signaux pour reconnaître l'identifiant électronique, par exemple sous forme d'un code d'identification, et authentifier ou non ce code en le comparant à un code en mémoire, afin d'identifier une clé autorisée.The identification unit analyzes and processes these signals to recognize the electronic identifier, for example in the form of an identification code, and to authenticate or not this code by comparing it with a code in memory, in order to identify a authorized key.
Lorsqu'un code autorisé, et notamment une clé autorisée est détectée, l'unité d'identification autorise alors le démarrage du véhicule.When an authorized code, and in particular an authorized key is detected, the identification unit then authorizes the vehicle to start.
Au contraire, tant que le code n'est pas authentifié, l'autorisation de démarrage n'est pas commandée.On the contrary, as long as the code is not authenticated, the start authorization is not commanded.
Lorsque le démarrage est autorisé et que les commutateurs 7A,7B changent d'état par suite d'une rotation du rotor après entraînement de ce dernier par la clé conforme, une unité de commande du véhicule (non représentée) pilote les phases de démarrage du moteur ou encore l'alimentation des accessoires, en fonction de la position angulaire du rotor.When the start is authorized and the
En effet, on peut prévoir que le rotor est placé successivement dans les positions angulaires suivantes associées respectivement à une commande :
- une position dite « STOP » pour l'arrêt du moteur,
- une position dite « CONTACT » pour la mise en marche du moteur du véhicule et ainsi l'alimentation des équipements électriques du véhicule, et
- une position dite « DEMARRAGE » pour l'alimentation du démarreur du véhicule et ainsi le démarrage du moteur.
- a position called "STOP" for stopping the engine,
- a position called "CONTACT" for starting the vehicle engine and thus powering the electrical equipment of the vehicle, and
- a position called "STARTING" for powering the starter of the vehicle and thus starting the engine.
Bien entendu, on peut également prévoir une position dite «ACCESSOIRES » pour l'alimentation d'accessoires du véhicule.Of course, one can also provide a position called "ACCESSORIES" for the supply of accessories of the vehicle.
Selon le mode de réalisation décrit, le support 3 présente avantageusement :
- une première partie formant port d'antenne réalisée sous forme de jupe cylindrique 3A coiffant le stator, et
- une seconde partie portant les commutateurs sans
7A,7B réalisée sous forme decontact languette 3B solidaire de la jupe cylindrique 3A, de manière à former lesupport 3 d'une seule pièce.
- a first antenna port portion formed as a
cylindrical skirt 3A capping the stator, and - a second portion carrying the
7A, 7B formed as anon-contact switches tab 3B integral with thecylindrical skirt 3A, so as to form thesupport 3 in one piece.
Dans l'exemple illustré, la jupe cylindrique 3A comporte une rainure 13 recevant l'antenne réalisée par exemple sous la forme d'une bobine 5 enroulée sur un support indépendant 11.In the illustrated example, the
Cette rainure 13 est par exemple ménagée sur une extrémité de la jupe cylindrique 3A recevant l'extrémité du rotor qui porte l'entrée de clé, de sorte que lorsque la clé y est introduite, la bobine 5 est placée à proximité de l'émetteur de la clé pour un meilleur échange de signaux.This
La languette 3B quant à elle comporte judicieusement au moins un moyen d'encliquetage sur ses côtés latéraux coopérant avec un moyen complémentaire d'encliquetage porté par le stator, pour la fixation du module de commande 1 sur le stator.As for the
En outre, pour chaque commutateur sans contact 7A,7B, une lumière correspondante 15A,15B formant logement est avantageusement ménagée dans la languette 3B.In addition, for each
Comme l'illustre la
De façon préférée, chaque commutateur sans contact 7A,7B est à courant faible et comporte une ampoule Reed, de manière à permettre une utilisation du module de commande 1 dans un véhicule à architecture de commutation à courant faible.Preferably, each
On désigne par courant faible, un courant visant à diffuser, recueillir ou échanger de l'information sous forme de signaux électriques. Les courants mis en cause sont parfois très faibles (quelques µA à quelques mA).The term "weak current" refers to a current intended to diffuse, collect or exchange information in the form of electrical signals. The currents in question are sometimes very weak (a few μA to a few mA).
Ces ampoules Reed sont disposées sur la languette 3B, avec leur axe longitudinal sensiblement parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du rotor, et coopèrent avec un aimant permanent (non représenté) solidarisé au rotor, de manière à être sensibles à la position du rotor après entraînement en rotation du rotor par la clé, pour effectuer la commutation correspondante à la position angulaire du rotor.These Reed bulbs are disposed on the
Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, l'aimant permanent est porté par la face frontale d'une came solidarisée à l'extrémité libre du rotor, à l'intérieur du stator. Cet aimant peut être en ferrite ou en alliage néodyme / fer / bore ou autre et être emmanché dans une cavité prévue dans la came.According to a preferred embodiment, the permanent magnet is carried by the end face of a cam secured to the free end of the rotor, inside the stator. This magnet may be ferrite or neodymium alloy / iron / boron or other and be fitted into a cavity provided in the cam.
Ainsi, lors de la rotation du rotor, la détection d'un champ magnétique réalisée à proximité d'une ou de plusieurs ampoules Reed permet de fermer les ampoules, établissant ainsi un courant, de manière à piloter une commande associée.Thus, during rotation of the rotor, the detection of a magnetic field produced near one or more Reed bulbs makes it possible to close the bulbs, thus establishing a current, so as to drive an associated control.
Pour cela, les ampoules Reed 7A,7B sont reliées par leurs broches à un second connecteur de raccordement 17, permettant une connexion électrique avec l'unité de commande non représentée, de manière à commuter les contacts associés lorsque les ampoules sont fermées, et ainsi transmettre un signal correspondant à l'unité de commande.For this, the
Avantageusement, le second connecteur de raccordement 17 est porté par le support 3, plus précisément à l'extrémité libre de la languette 3B.Advantageously, the
De préférence, le connecteur de raccordement 17 est solidarisé au support 3 par exemple par surmoulage, de façon à réaliser en une seule pièce le support 3 et le second connecteur de raccordement 17.Preferably, the
Comme on le constate sur les
Ces pistes 21A à 21C présentent des premières extrémités de branchement dans le connecteur de raccordement 17 qui forment des broches de connexion et des secondes extrémités qui forment des plages de contactage avec les commutateurs 7A,7B.These
Préférentiellement, la piste centrale 21B comporte à son extrémité une plage de contactage, par exemple en forme de U, qui comporte deux branches formant chacune une plage de contactage avec une broche de chaque ampoule 7A,7B. Les deux autres pistes 21A, 21C, sont connectées respectivement à l'autre broche de chaque ampoule 7A,7B.Preferably, the
Ainsi, selon un exemple de réalisation, on peut prévoir qu'en position d'arrêt, qui correspond à la position relative du verrou et des commutateurs après montage, l'aimant est éloigné des ampoules Reed 7A,7B et ces ampoules sont toutes les deux ouvertes. Aucun signal électrique n'est donc transmis par le connecteur 17 de raccordement à l'unité de commande.Thus, according to an exemplary embodiment, it can be provided that in the off position, which corresponds to the relative position of the latch and the switches after assembly, the magnet is away from the
La clé peut alors être tournée d'un premier angle pour faire venir le rotor dans la position « Contact ». Dans ce cas, l'aimant est à proximité d'une première ampoule Reed qui se ferme sous l'effet du champ magnétique. Deux contacts du connecteur de raccordement 17 sont alors commutés et transmettent un signal électrique à l'unité de commande qui assure l'alimentation des équipements électriques.The key can then be turned at a first angle to bring the rotor into the "Contact" position. In this case, the magnet is close to a first Reed bulb that closes under the effect of the magnetic field. Two contacts of the
La clé peut encore être tournée d'un second angle pour faire venir le rotor dans la position « Démarrage ». Durant cette rotation, la première ampoule reste fermée et une seconde ampoule se ferme, assurant la commutation des trois contacts du connecteur de raccordement 17. Le signal électrique transmis à l'unité de commande assure le démarrage du moteur.The key can still be turned a second angle to bring the rotor into the "Start" position. During this rotation, the first bulb remains closed and a second bulb closes, ensuring the switching of the three contacts of the
De cette position, la clé peut être tournée dans un sens inverse pour revenir à la position où le démarreur n'est plus alimenté mais le moteur est en marche, la seconde ampoule étant ouverte suite à l'éloignement de l'aimant.From this position, the key can be turned in the opposite direction to return to the position where the starter is no longer powered but the engine is running, the second bulb being open following the removal of the magnet.
Puis, par une rotation supplémentaire dans le même sens, la clé peut être ramenée en position d'arrêt où les deux ampoules Reed 7A,7B sont ouvertes.Then, by an additional rotation in the same direction, the key can be returned to the off position where the two
Bien entendu, lorsque le rotor occupe la quatrième position « ACCESSOIRES », une troisième ampoule Reed peut être utilisée selon le même principe.Of course, when the rotor occupies the fourth position "ACCESSORIES", a third Reed bulb can be used according to the same principle.
De préférence, les connexions entre les contacts du connecteur de raccordement et les broches des ampoules Reed 7A,7B sont réalisées par soudage.Preferably, the connections between the contacts of the connection connector and the pins of the
En variante, on peut prévoir que les ampoules 7A,7B sont reliées au second connecteur de raccordement 17 par l'intermédiaire d'une carte à circuit imprimé.Alternatively, it can be provided that the
Les ampoules Reed 7A,7B sont alors soudées sur la carte qui présente deux fentes dans lesquelles sont emboîtées les ampoules Reed 7A,7B, et les contacts du connecteur de raccordement 17 sont quant à eux soudés à proximité d'un côté de cette carte.The
Une fois les connexions effectuées, l'ensemble carte / ampoules Reed /contacts est inséré dans un espace formé sur le support 3, par exemple le canal de réception 16.Once the connections have been made, the card / reed / contact bulb assembly is inserted into a space formed on the
Par ailleurs, le second connecteur de raccordement 17 peut être fixé au stator par un agencement de rail et de glissière sensiblement parallèle à l'axe longitudinal du rotor. Plus précisément, le connecteur de raccordement 17 comporte sur chacun de ses côtés une nervure venant s'emboîter dans un rail correspondant agencé sur le stator 1.Furthermore, the
De façon préférentielle, le second connecteur de raccordement 17 comporte à son extrémité opposée aux contacts un dispositif d'encliquetage 25 sur le stator, constitué d'un orifice qui vient s'encliqueter sur une languette élastique correspondante (non représentée) agencée sur le stator, en fin de course des nervures dans leur rail respectif.Preferably, the
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré représenté sur la
Le connecteur de raccordement 17 est alors relié d'une part à l'antenne 5 et d'autre part aux ampoules 7A,7B, de sorte que les connexions électriques entre d'une part l'antenne 5 et l'unité d'identification et d'autre part les commutateurs sans contact 7A,7B et l'unité de commande s'effectuent simultanément.The
Dans ce cas, on peut prévoir deux pistes conductrices estampées supplémentaires non représentées pour relier électriquement le connecteur de raccordement 17 à l'antenne 5.In this case, it is possible to provide two additional non-illustrated stamped conductor tracks for electrically connecting the
De façon analogue aux pistes 21A à 21C, les pistes supplémentaires présentent des premières extrémités de branchement dans le connecteur de raccordement 17 qui forment des broches de connexion et des secondes extrémités qui forment des plages de contactage avec les extrémités de la bobine 5.Like the
En variante, on peut prévoir que l'antenne 5 est reliée au connecteur de raccordement 17 par l'intermédiaire d'une carte à circuit imprimé.Alternatively, it can be provided that the
Par ailleurs, comme on le constate sur les
L'enjoliveur 27 est réalisé de préférence en matière plastique et est fixé sur le module de commande 1 par clippage ou surmoulage.The
Plus précisément, cet enjoliveur 27 comporte une bague 27A couvrant la rainure 13, et un couvercle 27B de fermeture du canal de réception 16, solidaire de la bague 27A.More specifically, this
Enfin, cet enjoliveur 27 comporte un ergot 27C, de préférence à l'extrémité libre du couvercle 27B, coopérant avec un décrochement prévu dans la paroi arrière du second connecteur de raccordement 17, de manière à cacher la totalité de la surface visible du module de commande 1, tel que représenté sur les
On comprend donc qu'un tel module de commande permet de réduire le nombre de composants mécaniques à monter sur le verrou et de réduire le temps d'assemblage.It is therefore understood that such a control module makes it possible to reduce the number of mechanical components to be mounted on the lock and to reduce the assembly time.
Il en résulte une diminution significative des coûts de production et de montage.This results in a significant decrease in production and assembly costs.
Bien entendu, il est évident qu'un tel module de commande selon l'invention peut équiper tout verrou d'antivol de véhicule, du type comprenant un stator et un rotor susceptible d'être entraîné en rotation dans le stator.Of course, it is obvious that such a control module according to the invention can equip any vehicle antitheft lock, of the type comprising a stator and a rotor capable of being rotated in the stator.
