Description

INTERRUPTEUR COUP DE POINGSWITCH SWITCH
La présente invention concerne un interrupteur coup de poing, comprenant un corps recevant des moyens mobiles en translation aptes, sous l'effet d'une poussée axiale, à passer d'une position sortie à une position rentrée, chacune desdites positions étant indexée au travers de moyens de blocage aptes à coopérer avec au moins une encoche d' indexage en une position sortie et avec au moins une encoche d' indexage en une position rentrée.The present invention relates to a punch switch, comprising a body receiving means movable in translation adapted, under the effect of an axial thrust, to move from an extended position to a retracted position, each of said positions being indexed through locking means adapted to cooperate with at least one indexing notch in an extended position and with at least one indexing notch in a retracted position.
Un interrupteur coup de poing est généralement utilisé pour l'arrêt d'urgence d'un dispositif en fonctionnement ou la coupure rapide d'un circuit ou réseau. Un tel interrupteur trouvera son application dans de nombreux domaines techniques, comme, et de façon non limitative, sur des chaînes et dispositifs industriels, des machines outils, des circuits d' alimentation , etc .A punch switch is generally used for the emergency stop of a device in operation or the rapid shutdown of a circuit or network. Such a switch will find application in many technical fields, such as, and not limited to, industrial chains and devices, machine tools, power circuits, etc.
On connaît déjà de tels interrupteurs qui sont soit de type "pousser-tirer" où le déblocage est réalisé par traction, c'est le cas de celui décrit dans le document US 4 404 445, soit de type "pousser-tourner" où le déblocage est réalisé par rotation, c'est le cas de celui décrit dans le document EP 0 667 631. L'inconvénient de ces dispositifs réside dans le fait qu'ils sont soit de type "pousser-tirer" , soit de type "pousser tirer" , et que si le dispositif du document US 4 404 445 peut être des deux type à la fois, il ne permet pas d'être d'un type ou de 1 ' autre .Such switches are already known which are either of the "push-pull" type where the release is achieved by traction, this is the case of that described in document US Pat. No. 4,404,445, or of the "push-turn" type where the unlocking is performed by rotation, this is the case of that described in EP 0 667 631. The disadvantage of these devices lies in the fact that they are either type "push-pull" or type "push" However, if the device of US 4,404,445 can be of both types, it can not be of one type or the other.
Pour pallier cet inconvénient le présenté Demandeur a décrit dans la demande européenne EP 1 734 434 un interrupteur coup de poing qui présente avantageusement la possibilité d'être déblocable par traction et/ou par rotation, tout en étant susceptible d' incorporer des moyens visuels permettant de signaler leur état, ouvert ou fermé, consistant soit en un élément lumineux, soit en un élément mobile coopérant avec une fenêtre, et susceptible encore d'être équipé d'un système d'armement assurant le non-retour après déclenchement. Cet interrupteur comprend un élément mobile axialement dans le corps , ledit élément étant muni de deux encoches réparties longitudinalement l'une d' indexage en une position sortie et l'autre d' indexage en une position rentrée, destinées à coopérer avec un moyen de blocage, tandis qu'un système de guidage qui comprend deux parties coopérant l ' une avec l ' autre en coulissement , permet de limiter et de déterminer les évolutions en translation et en rotation dudit élément mobile par rapport audit corps. Les avantages que procure cet interrupteur sont essentiellement dus au fait que le moyen de blocage présente une forme annulaire comprenant deux parties , l ' une de blocage et l'autre de rappel élastique, et qu'il est ainsi agencé autour de l'élément mobile, immobilisé en rotation par rapport au corps, et qu'il est conformé pour pouvoir coopérer alternativement avec l'une ou l'autre des encoches d' indexage. Cette configuration permet de plus de dégager un espace intérieur important, susceptible de loger des moyens visuels de signalisation.To overcome this drawback the Applicant has described in European application EP 1 734 434 a punch switch which advantageously has the possibility of being releasable by traction and / or rotation, while being able to incorporate visual means allowing to indicate their state, open or closed, consisting either of a light element or a movable element cooperating with a window, and may further be equipped with an arming system ensuring the non-return after triggering. This switch comprises an axially movable element in the body, said element being provided with two notches distributed longitudinally one indexing in an extended position and the other indexing in a retracted position, intended to cooperate with a locking means , while a guide system which comprises two parts cooperating with one another in sliding, limits and determines the evolutions in translation and in rotation of said movable element relative to said body. The advantages provided by this switch are essentially due to the fact that the locking means has an annular shape comprising two parts, one blocking and the other elastic return, and that it is thus arranged around the movable member , immobilized in rotation relative to the body, and that it is shaped to be able to cooperate alternately with one or other of the indexing notches. This configuration also allows to clear a large interior space, capable of housing visual means of signaling.
Cet interrupteur présente de nombreux avantages par rapport aux interrupteurs coup de poing antérieurs, il présente toutefois encore des inconvénients, notamment en ce que sa conception ne permet pas la réalisation des interrupteurs coup de poing les plus petits du marché .This switch has many advantages over previous punch switches, it however still has disadvantages, especially in that its design does not allow the realization of the smallest punch switches on the market.
En effet, chaque modèle d'interrupteur coup de poing est décliné dans des tailles différentes, adaptées à l'utilisation qui en est faite. Or, l'interrupteur coup de poing précité n'est pas techniquement réalisable , avec toutes ses caractéristiques remarquables, dans les dimensions les plus petites, en sorte qu'il ne permet pas de la réalisation d'une gamme complète. La présente invention a pour but de proposer un nouvel interrupteur coup de poing permettant de remédier à cet inconvénient, dont la conception permet, outre la possibilité d'une fabrication dans toutes les tailles en usage, et outre l'incorporation d'une part de moyens visuels de signalisation de son état ouvert ou fermé, et d'autre part d'un système d'armement assurant le non-retour après déclenchement, de réaliser des interrupteurs dont le déblocage peut être réalisé par traction, par rotation, par traction et par rotation, ou par traction ou par rotation.Indeed, each model of punch switch is declined in different sizes, adapted to the use that is made of it. However, the aforementioned punch switch is not technically feasible, with all its remarkable features, in the smallest dimensions, so that it does not allow the realization of a complete range. The present invention aims to provide a new punch switch to overcome this disadvantage, the design allows, in addition to the possibility of manufacturing in all sizes in use, and in addition to the incorporation of a part of visual means of signaling its open or closed state, and secondly of an arming system ensuring the non-return after triggering, of making switches whose release can be achieved by pulling, rotating, pulling and rotating, or pulling or rotating.
Par ailleurs, du point de vue fabrication, cet interrupteur nécessite une pièce de moins que celui objet du document EP 1 734 434, ainsi que moins d'opérations manuelles de montage.Furthermore, from the manufacturing point of view, this switch requires one less piece than the object of document EP 1 734 434, as well as fewer manual assembly operations.

- la figure 13b représente une vue schématique en coupe selon l'axe FF de la figure 13a. En référence à la figure 1 , on peut voir un premier mode de réalisation d'un interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention, lequel comporte une embase 1 destinée à sa fixation, et un champignon 2 destiné à recevoir la poussée d' actionnement de 1 ' interrupteur .- Figure 13b shows a schematic sectional view along the axis FF of Figure 13a. Referring to Figure 1, we can see a first embodiment of a punch switch according to the invention, which comprises a base 1 for fixing it, and a mushroom 2 for receiving the thrust actuation of 1 'switch.
L ' embase 1 se présente sous la forme d ' une pièce tubulaire comportant deux parties, une partie inférieure 10 d'un diamètre inférieur à celui d'une partie supérieure 11, se qui crée un épaulement intérieur , non visible sur la figure . Le champignon 2 se présente sous la forme d'un capuchon comprenant une paroi périphérique tubulaire 20, fermée supérieurement par une paroi 21, ces parois 20 et 21 étant pourvues d'ouvertures 22 dont les caractéristiques et les fonctions seront décrites plus loin. On notera que l'interrupteur selon l'invention comprend essentiellement deux positions de fonctionnement, la position de repos, ou sortie, correspondant à l'interrupteur avant déclenchement, et une position de travail, ou rentrée, correspondant à l'interrupteur lorsqu'il actionné, après que 1 'on ait appuyé sur le champignon 2 , et qui permet de couper un circuit.The base 1 is in the form of a tubular piece having two parts, a lower portion 10 of a diameter smaller than that of an upper portion 11, which creates an inner shoulder, not visible in the figure. The mushroom 2 is in the form of a cap comprising a tubular peripheral wall 20, closed topally by a wall 21, these walls 20 and 21 being provided with openings 22 whose characteristics and functions will be described later. Note that the switch according to the invention essentially comprises two operating positions, the rest position, or output, corresponding to the switch before tripping, and a working position, or retracted, corresponding to the switch when actuated, after the mushroom 2 has been pressed, and which makes it possible to cut a circuit.
En référence à la figure 2 , on peut voir un piston 3 qui consiste en un élément mobile en translation dans l'embase sous l'effet d'une poussée axiale sur le champignon 2, duquel il est solidaire, mais non fixement comme cela sera décrit plus loin.With reference to FIG. 2, it can be seen a piston 3 which consists of a member movable in translation in the base under the effect of an axial thrust on the mushroom 2, of which it is integral, but not fixed as it will be. described later.
Ce piston 3 se présente sous la forme d'une pièce tubulaire comprenant deux parties, une partie supérieure 30 d'un diamètre inférieur à celui d'une partie inférieure 31, créant ainsi entre les deux un épaulement 32. La partie inférieure 31, qui est d'un diamètre externe ajusté à celui interne de la partie inférieure 10 de l'embase 1, comporte, superposés axialement, deux méplats qui forment des encoches d'indexage, une encoche dite "de sortie" 33, et une encoche dite "de rentrée" 34, cette dernière étant celle positionnée du côté de la partie supérieure 30. On notera que le piston 3 comporte sur son côté diamétralement opposé non visible sur la figure , les mêmes encoches 33 et 34.This piston 3 is in the form of a tubular part comprising two parts, an upper part 30 of a diameter smaller than that of a lower part 31, thus creating a shoulder 32 between the two. The lower part 31, which is of an external diameter adjusted to that internal of the lower portion 10 of the base 1, comprises, axially superimposed, two flats which form indexing notches, a so-called "output" notch 33, and a notch called ""34, the latter being the one positioned on the side of the upper part 30. It will be noted that the piston 3 has on its diametrically opposite side not visible in the figure, the same notches 33 and 34.
La partie inférieure 31 comporte également, selon un décalage angulaire de 90° par rapport aux encoches 33 et 34, deux ergots 35, diamétralement opposés, qui font saillie, et destinés à participer au guidage de la translation du piston 3.The lower part 31 also comprises, at an angular offset of 90 ° with respect to the notches 33 and 34, two diametrically opposed pins 35, which protrude, and intended to participate in guiding the translation of the piston 3.
En référence maintenant à la figure 3, on peut voir une douille 4 se présentant sous la forme d'une pièce tubulaire, destinée à accueillir le piston 3, et à permettre à celui-ci de s'y déplacer axialement, et également destinée à être introduite dans l'embase 2, et à être solidarisée à celle-ci, et plus particulièrement au niveau de l ' épaulement interne de cette dernière, créé par la différence de diamètre des parties inférieure 10 et supérieure 11. Cette douille 4 comporte du côté interne d'une part deux rainures 40 diamétralement opposées, dont une seule est visible sur la figure, dans chacune desquelles peut évoluer un ergot 35 du piston 3; et d'autre part, décalés angulairement de 90° par rapport aux rainures 40, deux éléments de blocage 41, diamétralement opposés, dont un seul est visible sur la figure, et qui comprennent chacun un élément 42 faisant saillie vers l'intérieur de la douille 4, rattaché au corps de celle-ci par l'intermédiaire d'une lame 43, en sorte d'autoriser à cet élément 42 une mobilité dans le sens radial, tout en le rappelant vers sa position d'origine à savoir saillant vers 1 ' intérieur .Referring now to Figure 3, there can be seen a sleeve 4 in the form of a tubular part, intended to accommodate the piston 3, and to allow it to move axially, and also for be introduced into the base 2, and to be secured thereto, and more particularly at the inner shoulder of the latter, created by the difference in diameter of the lower portion 10 and upper 11. This sleeve 4 comprises the internal side on the one hand two grooves 40 diametrically opposed, only one of which is visible in the figure, in each of which can evolve a lug 35 of the piston 3; and on the other hand, angularly offset by 90 ° with respect to the grooves 40, two diametrically opposed locking elements 41, only one of which is visible in the figure, and which each comprise an element 42 projecting towards the inside of the sleeve 4, attached to the body thereof by means of a blade 43, so as to allow this element 42 a mobility in the radial direction, while reminding it to its original position namely to protrude to 1 inside.
On notera que, selon une variante, les moyens de blocage peuvent faire partie intégrante du piston, et les encoches disposées sur la douille . La douille 4 comporte également du côté intérieur, au- dessus des rainures 40 et des moyens de blocage 41, un épaulement périphérique 44, et du côté extérieur, deux rainures 45 diamétralement opposées.Note that, alternatively, the locking means may be an integral part of the piston, and the notches arranged on the sleeve. The sleeve 4 also has on the inner side, above the grooves 40 and the locking means 41, a peripheral shoulder 44, and on the outer side, two grooves 45 diametrically opposite.
En référence maintenant à la figure 4 , on peut voir un volant 5, se présentant sous la forme d'un capuchon comprenant une paroi périphérique tubulaire 50 fermée supérieurement par une paroi 51, ces parois comprenant des zones 52 et 53 de couleurs différentes. Ce volant 5 est destiné à être intercalé entre la douille 4 et le champignon 2 , et il comporte intérieurement à la paroi périphérique 50 des ergots 54 prévus aptes à coopérer avec les rainures 45 de la douille 4.Referring now to Figure 4, there can be seen a flywheel 5, in the form of a cap comprising a tubular peripheral wall 50 closed topally by a wall 51, these walls comprising zones 52 and 53 of different colors. This flywheel 5 is intended to be inserted between the bushing 4 and the mushroom 2, and it has internally to the peripheral wall 50 pins 54 provided adapted to cooperate with the grooves 45 of the sleeve 4.
En référence maintenant aux figures 5a et 5b, on peut voir un interrupteur coup de poing selon l ' invention dans la position de repos ou sortie , constitué de l ' assemblage de toutes pièces décrites précédemment. On peut ainsi voir l'embase 1 et ses parties inférieure 10 et supérieure 11 qui délimitent un épaulement interne 12, sur lequel repose la douille 4. On notera que la douille 4 est solidarisée fixement à l'embase 1 ce qui peut être réalisé par collage, ou soudage, ou encliquetage , on notera également la présence de moyens d'indexage de la position angulaire de la douille 4 par rapport à l'embase 1, lesquels consistent, comme cela est visible sur la figure 5a, en un évidement 46 pratiqué dans le bord inférieur de la douille 4 , et en un plot 13 qui fait saillie de l' épaulement 12. II convient également de noter que l'ensemble constitué de 1 ' assemblage de l ' embase 1 et de la douille 4 peut consister en une seule pièce venant de moulage .Referring now to Figures 5a and 5b, we can see a punch switch according to the invention in the rest position or output, consisting of the assembly of all parts described above. It is thus possible to see the base 1 and its lower parts 10 and upper 11 which delimit an internal shoulder 12, on which rests the sleeve 4. Note that the sleeve 4 is fixedly secured to the base 1 which can be achieved by gluing, or welding, or snap-fastening, note also the presence of means for indexing the angular position of the sleeve 4 relative to the base 1, which consist, as can be seen in FIG. 5a, in a recess 46 made in the lower edge of the sleeve 4, and in a stud 13 which protrudes from the shoulder 12. It should also be noted that the assembly consisting of 1 assembly of the base 1 and the sleeve 4 may consist of in one piece coming from molding.
Sur ses figures 5a et 5b on peut voir également le piston 3 qui est introduit dans la douille 4 , et qui est solidarisé au champignon 2 , ce qui est réalisé par l ' intermédiaire d ' un arbre 23 qui s'étend axialement dans la champignon 2, qui est introduit étroitement dans la cavité axiale 36 que comporte la partie supérieure 30 du piston 3, cette cavité 36 étant de section transversale non ronde , en l ' occurrence elle comporte des méplats 37, tandis que l'arbre 23 présente extérieurement un profil complémentaire, à savoir des méplats 24, en sorte que le champignon 2 et le piston 3 soient liés en rotation, tout en autorisant une translation axiale de l'un par rapport à l'autre. Cette translation est limitée par l'assujettissement à l'extrémité libre de l'arbre 23, d'un bouchon 25 de diamètre supérieur et qui peut se déplacer dans la cavité 38 que comporte la partie inférieure 31 du piston 3.In FIGS. 5a and 5b, it is also possible to see the piston 3 which is inserted into the bushing 4, and which is secured to the head 2, which is produced by means of a shaft 23 which extends axially in the fungus 2, which is introduced tightly into the axial cavity 36 that includes the upper part 30 of the piston 3, this cavity 36 being of non-round cross section, in this case it comprises flats 37, while the shaft 23 has an outer surface complementary profile, namely flats 24, so that the mushroom 2 and the piston 3 are connected in rotation, while allowing axial translation of one relative to the other. This translation is limited by the securing at the free end of the shaft 23, a 25 diameter plug upper and which can move in the cavity 38 that has the lower portion 31 of the piston 3.
Le volant 5 est introduit dans le champignon 2 , entre ce dernier et la douille 4 et, comme cela est visible sur la figure 5b, les ergots 35 sont engagés chacun dans une rainure 40 de la douille 4.The flywheel 5 is introduced into the mushroom 2, between the latter and the bush 4 and, as can be seen in FIG. 5b, the lugs 35 are each engaged in a groove 40 of the bush 4.
Enfin, deux ressorts hélicoïdaux coaxiaux sont enfilés sur l'arbre 23, un ressort P de précontrainte, intercalé entre le champignon 2 et l ' épaulement 32 du piston 3, et un ressort de rappel R intercalé entre le champignon 2 et l' épaulement périphérique 44 de la douille 4.Finally, two coaxial helical springs are threaded onto the shaft 23, a preloading spring P, inserted between the poppet 2 and the shoulder 32 of the piston 3, and a return spring R interposed between the mushroom 2 and the peripheral shoulder. 44 of the socket 4.
Le montage est complété par deux joints annulaires d'étanchéité, à savoir un joint J assujetti autour du bouchon 25, et un joint K assujetti autour de la base du piston 3. Sur les figures 5a et 5b, l'interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention est en position de repos ou sortie, ce qui correspond l'engagement de chacun des éléments 42 des moyens de blocage 41, dans une encoche dite "de sortie" 33.The assembly is completed by two annular sealing seals, namely a seal J secured around the cap 25, and a seal K secured around the base of the piston 3. In Figures 5a and 5b, the punch switch according to the invention is in the rest or output position, which corresponds to the engagement of each of the elements 42 of the locking means 41, in a so-called "output" notch 33.
En référence maintenant aux figures 6a et 6b, on peut voir l'interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention en position de travail ou rentrée, obtenue en exerçant une pression axiale sur le champignon 2 , pression qui entraîne la compression du ressort de précontrainte P, dont la détente provoque la translation du piston 3 dans l'embase 1 pour venir actionner un coupe circuit non représenté, les éléments 42 des moyens de blocage 41 passant chacun d'une encoche dite "de sortie" 33 dans une encoche dite "de rentrée" 34, en franchissant la nervure 39 qui sépare les deux encoches 33 et 34, grâce d'une part à la souplesse des lames 43 et d'autre part au fait que le bord inférieur des nervures 39 est biseauté.Referring now to Figures 6a and 6b, one can see the punch switch according to the invention in working or retracted position, obtained by exerting an axial pressure on the mushroom 2, which pressure causes the compression of the prestressing spring P , whose expansion causes the translation of the piston 3 in the base 1 to actuate a not shown circuit breaker, the elements 42 of the locking means 41 each passing a so-called "output" notch 33 in a notch called "de reentry "34, crossing the rib 39 which separates the two notches 33 and 34, thanks firstly to the flexibility of the blades 43 and secondly to the fact that the lower edge of the ribs 39 is beveled.
Le retour à la position de repos ou sortie, peut être réalisé soit en tirant sur le champignon 2 , soit en le faisant tourner, le but étant de faire passer les éléments 42 des encoches 34 dans les encoches 33. La manière de procéder dépend d'une part de la forme des rainures 40 de la douille, puisqu'elles servent de guidage aux ergots 35 et donc au piston 3 par rapport à la douille 4 , et d'autre part aux profils des éléments 42 et des encoches 33 et 34, plus particulièrement des nervures 39.The return to the rest or exit position, can be achieved either by pulling on the mushroom 2, or by rotating, the purpose being to pass the elements 42 of the notches 34 in the notches 33. The procedure depends on part of the shape of the grooves 40 of the socket, since they serve as a guide for pins 35 and therefore to the piston 3 relative to the sleeve 4, and secondly to the profiles of the elements 42 and notches 33 and 34, more particularly the ribs 39.
Ainsi, il est possible, dans une variante, de combiner d'une part des rainures 40 longitudinales, qui n'autorisent qu ' un déplacement axial des ergots 35 et donc du piston 3 par rapport à la douille 4, et d'autre part des nervures 39 qui séparent les encoches 33 et 34 , présentent un bord supérieur biseauté permettant aux éléments 42 de s'échapper des encoches 34 lors d'une traction axiale.Thus, it is possible, in a variant, to combine firstly grooves 40 longitudinal, which allow only an axial displacement of the lugs 35 and therefore the piston 3 relative to the sleeve 4, and secondly ribs 39 which separate the notches 33 and 34, have a beveled upper edge allowing the elements 42 to escape the notches 34 during axial traction.
Il est également possible, dans une autre variante, de combiner d'une part des rainures 40 présentant une forme particulière, permettant aux ergots 35 d'y évoluer non seulement dans le sens axial mais également dans un sens transversal, et d'autre part des nervures 39 présentant un bord supérieur perpendiculaire à l ' axe principal du piston 3 pour former un épaulement, en sorte d'interdire un mouvement axial de retour. Ainsi, le retour en position de repos ne peut s'effectuer qu'en faisant tourner le piston 3 par rapport à la douille 4 , en sorte que les éléments 42 échappent des encoches 34 par les extrémités de celles-ci et non en franchissant les nervures 39, le mouvement étant complété par l'action du ressort R.It is also possible, in another variant, to combine on the one hand grooves 40 having a particular shape, allowing the lugs 35 to evolve therein not only in the axial direction but also in a transverse direction, and secondly ribs 39 having an upper edge perpendicular to the main axis of the piston 3 to form a shoulder, so as to prohibit an axial return movement. Thus, the return to the rest position can be made by rotating the piston 3 relative to the sleeve 4, so that the elements 42 escape the notches 34 by the ends thereof and not crossing the ribs 39, the movement being completed by the action of the spring R.
Le mode de réalisation de l ' interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention représenté sur les figures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a et 7b, est une composition des deux variantes évoquées précédemment, en ce sens qu'il permet les deux possibilités à savoir retour en position en tournant ou en tirant, à cet effet les rainures 40, tel que cela est visible sur la figure 3, permet ces deux mouvements, tandis que la nervure 39 présente un bord supérieur biseauté.The embodiment of the punch switch according to the invention shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5a, 5b, 6a, 6b, 7a and 7b, is a composition of the two variants mentioned above, in that meaning that it allows the two possibilities to know back in position by turning or pulling, for this purpose the grooves 40, as shown in Figure 3, allows these two movements, while the rib 39 has an upper edge beveled.
On notera que , parallèlement aux différentes fonctions évoquées précédemment, lors de la pousser axiale exercée sur le champignon 2 , le volant 5 coopère avec la douille 4 , au travers des ergots 54 des rainures 45, en sorte de faire tourner le volant 5, et ainsi mettre en regard des ouvertures 22, les zones 52 ou les zones 53, ce qui permet d'indiquer visuellement l'état de l ' interrupteur .It will be noted that, in parallel with the various functions mentioned above, during the axial thrust exerted on the mushroom 2, the flywheel 5 cooperates with the bushing 4, through the lugs 54 of the grooves 45, so as to turn the flywheel 5, and so put next to apertures 22, the zones 52 or zones 53, which makes it possible to indicate visually the state of the switch.
En référence maintenant aux figures 7, 8, 9, 10, lia, 11b, 12a, 12b, 13a et 13b, on peut voir une autre mode de réalisation de l'interrupteur selon l'invention, qui présente la particularité de pouvoir être paramétré à volonté par l'utilisateur, pour être à déblocage soit en traction, soit en rotation .Referring now to FIGS. 7, 8, 9, 10, 11a, 11b, 12a, 12b, 13a and 13b, we can see another embodiment of the switch according to the invention, which has the particularity of being able to be parameterized at will by the user, to be unlocked either in traction or in rotation.
Ce mode de réalisation comporte les mêmes pièces à savoir une embase 1, un champignon 2, un piston 6, une douille 7 et un volant 5, qui présentent les mêmes caractéristiques à quelques que exceptions .This embodiment comprises the same parts namely a base 1, a mushroom 2, a piston 6, a sleeve 7 and a steering wheel 5, which have the same characteristics with some exceptions.
Ainsi, comme cela est visible sur la figure 8, le piston 6 se présente aussi sous la forme d'une pièce tubulaire comprenant deux parties, une partie supérieure 60 d'un diamètre inférieur à celui d'une partie inférieure 61, créant ainsi entre les deux un épaulement 62.Thus, as can be seen in FIG. 8, the piston 6 is also in the form of a tubular part comprising two parts, an upper part 60 of a diameter smaller than that of a lower part 61, thus creating between both a shoulder 62.
La partie inférieure 61, qui est d'un diamètre externe ajusté à celui interne de la partie inférieure 10 de l'embase 1, comporte périphériquement quatre secteurs angulaires, les secteurs opposés diamétralement étant identiques .The lower portion 61, which is of an outer diameter fitted to the inner one of the lower portion 10 of the base 1, has peripherally four angular sectors, the opposite diametrically being identical sectors.
Ainsi, deux secteurs opposés comportent chacun, superposés axialement, deux méplats qui créent des encoches d'indexage, l'une "de sortie" 63, et l'autre "de rentrée" 64, séparés par une nervure 65 dont le bord inférieur est biseauté, tandis que le bord supérieur forme un épaulement.Thus, two opposed sectors each comprise, axially superimposed, two flats which create indexing notches, one "output" 63, and the other "re-entry" 64, separated by a rib 65 whose lower edge is beveled, while the upper edge forms a shoulder.
Les deux autres secteurs opposés comportent chacun, superposés axialement, deux méplats qui forment des encoches d'indexage, l'une "de sortie" 63', et l'autre "de rentrée" 64', séparés par une nervure 65' dont le bord inférieur est biseauté, tandis que le bord supérieur est biseauté .The two other opposite sectors each comprise, axially superimposed, two flats which form indexing notches, one "exit" 63 ', and the other "return" 64', separated by a rib 65 'whose lower edge is beveled, while the upper edge is beveled.
Par ailleurs, la partie inférieure 61 comporte entre deux secteurs voisins, une rainure longitudinale 66, et entre les deux autres secteurs une rainure longitudinale 66', la rainure 66 étant prolongée latéralement en direction de la rainure 66', en passant au-dessus de l'encoche 64', d'un évidement 67 délimité inférieurement au-dessus de l'encoche 64' par un plan incliné 68, et qui rejoint la rainure 66' par une rainure transversale 69.Furthermore, the lower part 61 comprises between two neighboring sectors, a longitudinal groove 66, and between the two other sectors a longitudinal groove 66 ', the groove 66 being extended laterally in the direction of the groove 66', passing over notch 64 ', of a recess 67 delimited below the notch 64 'by an inclined plane 68, and which joins the groove 66' by a transverse groove 69.
Sur la figure 10, on peut voir que la douille 7 se présente sous la forme d'une pièce tubulaire, qui comporte du côté interne d'une part deux ergots 70 diamétralement opposés, dont un seul est visible sur la figure, et destinés à coopérer avec les rainures 66, 66', 68 et 69 du piston 6; et d'autre part, décalés angulairement de 90° par rapport aux ergots 70, deux éléments de blocage 71, diamétralement opposés, dont un seul est visible sur la figure, et qui comprend chacun un élément 72 faisant saillie vers l ' intérieur de la douille 7 , rattaché au corps de celle-ci par l'intermédiaire d'une lame 73, en sorte d'autoriser à cet élément 72 une mobilité dans le sens radial, tout en le rappelant vers sa position d'origine à savoir saillant vers l'intérieur.In FIG. 10, it can be seen that the bush 7 is in the form of a tubular piece, which has on the inside, on the one hand, two diametrically opposed lugs 70, only one of which is visible in the figure, and intended to cooperate with the grooves 66, 66 ', 68 and 69 of the piston 6; and on the other hand, angularly offset by 90 ° relative to the lugs 70, two blocking elements 71, diametrically opposed, only one of which is visible in the figure, and which each comprises an element 72 projecting towards the inside of the sleeve 7, attached to the body thereof by means of a blade 73, so as to allow this element 72 a mobility in the radial direction, while recalling it to its original position namely to protrude towards inside.
La douille 7 comporte également du côté intérieur, au- dessus des ergots 70 et des moyens de blocage 71, un épaulement périphérique 74, et du côté extérieur, deux rainures 75 diamétralement opposées .The sleeve 7 also has on the inner side, above the lugs 70 and locking means 71, a peripheral shoulder 74, and on the outer side, two grooves 75 diametrically opposed.
Les caractéristiques du piston 6 et de la douille 7 permettent d'envisager deux configurations selon le positionnement angulaire du piston 6 par rapport à la douille 7 , où en position repos, dans la première, représentée sur les figures lia et 11b, les éléments 72 des moyens de blocage 71 sont positionnés dans les encoches 63 tandis que les ergots 70 peuvent évolués dans les rainures 66 et 67, et dans la seconde configuration, non représentée, où ils sont positionnés dans les encoches 63', tandis que les ergots 70 peuvent évolués dans les rainures 66 ' .The characteristics of the piston 6 and the sleeve 7 make it possible to envisage two configurations according to the angular positioning of the piston 6 with respect to the sleeve 7, where in the rest position, in the first, shown in FIGS. 11a and 11b, the elements 72 locking means 71 are positioned in the notches 63 while the lugs 70 can be moved in the grooves 66 and 67, and in the second configuration, not shown, where they are positioned in the notches 63 ', while the lugs 70 can evolved in grooves 66 '.
Lors du passage en position de travail, dans le premier cas, représenté sur les figures 12a et 12b, les éléments 72 franchissent les nervures 65 et passent dans les encoches 64 , tandis que dans le second cas les éléments 72 passent dans les encoches 64 ' . On comprendra que, dans le cas représenté, du fait que les nervures 65 présentent supérieurement un épaulement, le retour à la position initiale n'est pas réalisable en tirant sur le champignon, mais nécessite de faire tourner ce dernier afin que les éléments 72 échappent des encoches 64 par les extrémités latérales de celles-ci.When moving to the working position, in the first case, shown in Figures 12a and 12b, the elements 72 cross the ribs 65 and pass into the slots 64, while in the second case the elements 72 pass into the notches 64 ' . It will be understood that, in the case shown, because the ribs 65 have a shoulder superiorly, the return to the initial position is not feasible by pulling on the mushroom, but requires the latter to rotate so that the elements 72 escape notches 64 by the lateral ends thereof.
Parallèlement, les ergots 70 évoluent dans les rainures 66 et 67 , ce qui autorisent le mouvement de rotation du champignon 2 et donc du piston 6 par rapport à la douille 7. Dans le second cas, non représenté, le bord supérieur biseauté des nervures 65 ' autorise le retour en position initiale par traction, seul mouvement autorisé par la coopération des ergots 70 avec les rainures 66'.In parallel, the lugs 70 move in the grooves 66 and 67, which allow the rotational movement of the mushroom 2 and thus of the piston 6 with respect to the bushing 7. In the second case, not shown, the beveled upper edge of the ribs 65 'authorizes the return to initial position by traction, the only movement allowed by the cooperation of the lugs 70 with the grooves 66'.
Ainsi , ce mode de réalisation de l ' interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention, peut être configuré soit pour un retour en position de repos par une action de traction, soit pour un retour en position de repos par une action de rotation assistée par le ressort R.Thus, this embodiment of the punch switch according to the invention can be configured either for a return to the rest position by a pulling action, or for a return to the rest position by a rotation action assisted by the spring R.
De manière particulièrement avantageuse, il peut être configuré à volonté par l'utilisateur. En effet, en référence aux figures 13a et 13 b, on peut voir que dans qu'en exerçant une pression supplémentaire sur le champignon 2, c'est-à-dire en l'amenant dans une position dite forcée, et en exerçant une rotation d'un quart de tour, on fait passer les éléments 72 des encoches 64 dans les encoches 64 ' , ou inversement et également les ergots 70 de la douille 7 des rainures 66 et 67 dans les rainures 66', ou inversement, en les faisant passer par les rainures de liaison 69.Particularly advantageously, it can be configured at will by the user. Indeed, with reference to Figures 13a and 13b, it can be seen that by exerting additional pressure on the mushroom 2, that is to say by bringing it into a so-called forced position, and by exerting a rotating a quarter of a turn, the elements 72 of the notches 64 are passed through the notches 64 ', or vice versa and also the lugs 70 of the sleeve 7 of the grooves 66 and 67 in the grooves 66', or conversely, in the grooves 66 ', passing through the connecting grooves 69.
Parallèlement à ces manipulations, le volant 5 est déplacé par rapport au champignon 2 , ce qui permet de faire apparaître sur celui-ci les données relatives à la configuration de 1 ' interrupteur .In parallel with these manipulations, the flywheel 5 is moved relative to the mushroom 2, which makes it possible to display on it the data relating to the configuration of the switch.
Quel que soit le mode de réalisation, l'interrupteur coup de poing selon l'invention présente de nombreux avantages par rapport à ceux existants à ce jour, et notamment en ce que, outre toutes les fonctionnalités qu ' il présente , il peut être réalisé dans toutes les tailles nécessaires sur le marché, et il nécessite un nombre de pièces inférieur et un temps de montage réduit . Whatever the embodiment, the punch switch according to the invention has many advantages over those existing to date, and in particular that, in addition to all the features it has, it can be made in all sizes needed on the market, and it requires a lower number of parts and a reduced assembly time.
