Definitions
- Such a device is intended to store and transport a motor vehicle part during its manufacture or when assembled on the vehicle, in order to preserve the integrity of the part, especially when it passes from one item to another on a manufacturing line, or when it passes from a production site to an assembly site.
- Such devices are known, for example according to the document US 2009/0028467 , in which the attachment of the carrier systems between the two rails is achieved by cooperating the cavities with the rails and sliding the hooks along the rails. The carrier systems are thus suspended one by one in a predetermined order.
- the object of the invention is to propose a device for transporting and / or storing a piece of a motor vehicle which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and which allows safe and easy handling of the carrier systems without affecting the productivity of the manufacture or the assembly of the room.
- the subject of the invention is a device for transporting and / or storing a motor vehicle part of the aforementioned type, characterized in that at least one of the hooks is adapted to pivot around the rail when the rail is received in the cavity between an extraction position in which the rail can be extracted from the cavity through the slot and a locked position in which the hook is retained in engagement with the rail.
- the Figure 1 illustrates a device 10 for transporting and / or storing a motor vehicle part, in particular a substantially flat piece such as a door panel.
- the device 10 comprises a support 12 and a system 14 carrying the part hung on the support 12.
- the support 12 comprises a container (not shown) provided with two rails 16 parallel to each other and extending in a substantially longitudinal direction.
- the rails 16 are identical and arranged symmetrically with respect to a longitudinal vertical plane.
- Each rail 16 has a substantially D-shaped cross-section, the right arm 18 of the D being oriented substantially vertically and the semi-circular arm 20 of the D extending and projecting from the right arm 18 outwardly away from the other rail 16.
- the rails 16 have a maximum width lrmax less than 17 mm.
- the rails 16 are made from a metal material, especially steel.
- the carrier system 14 is intended to be suspended between the two rails 16 and comprises a hollow bag 22 for receiving the piece and two lateral hooks 24 fixed on the bag 22 for hanging the bag 22 on the rails 16.
- the bag 22 defines a space 26 for receiving the part delimited by two transverse walls 28 connected to one another by a bottom wall 30, a cover wall 32 and two longitudinal walls 34.
- the transverse walls 28 have a substantially rectangular shape and are arranged substantially parallel to a transverse vertical plane.
- the bottom walls 30 and cover 32 have a substantially rectangular shape and are arranged substantially parallel to a horizontal plane.
- the longitudinal walls 34 have a substantially rectangular shape and are arranged substantially parallel to a longitudinal vertical plane.
- the receiving space 26 is accessible, for example by opening one of the longitudinal walls 34, so as to allow insertion / removal of the piece in / out of the bag 22 in a substantially transverse direction. But, depending on the type of hook 24 chosen and its associated method of attachment, the receiving space 26 can also be accessible by opening the lid wall 32, the insertion / removal of the parts then being made in a substantially vertical direction .
- the bag 22 is made from a flexible material, in particular a textile material or from a plastic material such as a tarpaulin.
- the device 10 comprises stiffening elements of the bag 22, for example in the form of two plates 36 fixed in the vicinity of the opposite ends 38 of the cover wall 32 and a panel (not shown) attached to the bottom wall 30 .
- the stiffening elements of the bag 22 not only stiffen the bag 22 when the piece is inserted into the receiving space 26, limiting any risk of tearing of the bag 22, but they also allow to give the bag 22 a better stability when transport and / or storage of the part.
- the hooks 24 are identical and can each be attached to an opposite end 38 of the cover wall 32, according to the embodiment shown in FIG. Figure 1 , or on the transverse walls 28 when the carrier system is equipped with hooks corresponding to that shown in FIG. Figure 7 .
- each hook 24 comprises a central portion 40 for attachment to the bag 22 extended on either side in one direction by a counterweight portion 42 and in the opposite direction by a suspension portion 44.
- the attachment portion 40 has a substantially rectangular flange 46 and a hinge 48 attached to a lower surface 50 of the flange 46.
- the hinge 48 is intended to be clipped on one end 38 of the cover wall 32 to fix the hook 24 on the bag 22.
- Orifices 52 are formed through the flange 46 and the hinge 48 to provide additional attachment of the hook 24 on the bag 22, in particular by riveting.
- the counterweight portion 42 has a tongue 54 which extends substantially perpendicularly from the flange 46.
- the tongue 54 is advantageously intended to be inserted between the cover wall 32 and the corresponding stiffening plate 36 ( Figure 1 ) so as to distribute the weight of the bag 22 along the cover wall 32, and not only at the opposite ends 38.
- the hook 24 may be in the embodiment shown in FIG. Figure 7 .
- the attachment portion 40 has two arms 64, 66 disposed at each lateral end of the flange 46 and extending substantially in a transverse vertical plane.
- Orifices 68 allow the tabs 64, 66 to be fastened to the transverse walls 28, in particular by riveting, thus leaving the cover wall 32 free.
- the cover wall 32 can then be mobile for top loading of the bag 22.
- the suspension portion 44 delimits a longitudinal cavity 56 for receiving a rail 16 and a slot 58 for inserting the rail 16 into the cavity 56.
- the cavity 56 extends along the flange 46 and has a substantially semi-cylindrical shape emerging outwards through the slot 58.
- the semi-cylindrical shape of the cavity 56 is substantially complementary to that of the semicircular branch 20 of the rail 16.
- the cavity 56 thus has an internal radius slightly greater than the maximum width lrmax of the rail 16.
- the slot 58 is oriented downwards and slightly inclined relative to the vertical with an angle ⁇ less than 30 °, preferably less than 20 °.
- the slot 58 has a width If greater than the maximum width lrmax of the rail 16.
- the hook 24 comprises reinforcing elements 60 ( Figure 3 ), for example in the form of ribs 60A disposed on the portions 40 and 44 of the hook 24 and in the form of crosspieces 60B made on the surface of the portion 42 of the hook 24.
- the hook 24 is made in one piece, in particular from a plastic material.
- the hook 24 is thus adapted to cooperate with the rail 16 so that, when the rail 16 is received in the cavity 56, the hook 24 is able to slide along the rail 16 and to pivot about the rail 16 between an extraction position ( Figure 5 ) and a locked position ( Figure 6 ).
- the hook 24 is inclined upwards with respect to the horizontal by an angle substantially equal to ⁇ so that the slot 58 is oriented substantially downward, one of the edges 62A of the cavity 56 delimiting the slot 58 being in contact with the semicircular branch 20 of the rail 16 while the opposite edge 62B is disposed away from the rail 16.
- the rail 16 is housed inside the cavity 56, its semicircular branch 20 being at least partially in contact with the inner surface of the cavity 56. It can be extracted from the cavity 56 through the slot 58, in particular by moving the hook 24 vertically relative to the rail 16.
- the hook 24 is inclined downwards with respect to the horizontal by an angle substantially equal to ⁇ which depends on the weight of the part, the two edges 62A, 62B of the cavity 56 being in contact with the semicircular branch 20 of the rail 16.
- the rail 16 In this locked position, the rail 16 is housed inside the cavity 56 and is retained in engagement with the hook 24. The rail 16 can not be removed from the cavity 56, especially when the hook 24 is biased vertically.
- the carrier system 14 is movable relative to the rails 16 between an engaged position in which the carrier system 14 is suspended between the two rails 16 and an unobstructed position in which the carrier system 14 is placed away from the rails 16.
- the displacement of the carrier system 14 from the engaged position to the disengaged position is effected in a substantially transverse direction, i.e. in a direction substantially identical to the direction in which the workpiece is extracted out of the bag 22 in the case of the embodiment shown at Figure 1 .
- the hooks 24 are fixed beforehand on the bag 22 by inserting the counterweight portions 42 between the cover wall 32 and the stiffening plates 36, by clipping the hinges 48 and riveting the fastening portions 40 with the aid of the orifices 52 on the opposite ends 38 of the cover wall 32.
- the hooks 24 can be fixed by riveting each arm 64, 66 with the orifices 68 on a transverse wall 28. Each hook 24 is then fixed to the two transverse walls 28.
- a user when a user wishes to transport a part of a motor vehicle, for example a door panel, from one site to another, for example from a production site to an assembly site, or for storage purposes, the piece, it opens one of the longitudinal walls 34 or the cover wall 32 of the bag 22, according to the embodiment of the hooks 24, and places the door panel in the receiving space 26 in a substantially transverse direction.
- a part of a motor vehicle for example a door panel
- the hooks 24, under the weight of the door panel, are rotated and pivot downwardly around the rails 16 to their locked position ( Figure 6 ).
- the carrier system 14 is thus suspended between the rails 16.
- the hooks 24 retain their locked position so that the risk that they escape the rails 16 is limited or even eliminated.
- the carrier system 14 is thus released from the rails 16 and it is then sufficient for the user to move the carrier system 14 in a substantially transverse direction, to open one of the longitudinal walls 34 or the cover wall 32 of the bag 22 and to extracting the door panel from the receiving space 26 in a substantially transverse or vertical direction.
- the invention therefore proposes a simple and economical device to manufacture which allows a safe and easy handling of the carrier systems.
- the device according to the invention not only allows to hang the carrier systems of the parts on the rails of the container in a very simple way, without having to do it in a predetermined order, but it also allows to unhook them all as simple and random.
- the device according to the invention allows to move the carrier system relative to the rails in a direction substantially identical to the direction in which the piece is inserted / extracted in / out of the bag.
- the parts are protected by the carrier systems bags that can not, because of the locked position of the hooks, detach from the rails.
- plastic hooks and bags made of textile or plastic material makes it possible to obtain support systems that are light and simple to manufacture.

Ainsi, lorsqu'un utilisateur souhaite transporter une pièce de véhicule automobile, par exemple un panneau de porte, d'un site à un autre, par exemple d'un site de production à un site de montage, ou à des fins de stockage de la pièce, il ouvre une des parois longitudinales 34 ou la paroi de couvercle 32 du sac 22, selon le mode de réalisation des crochets 24, et place le panneau de porte dans l'espace de réception 26 dans une direction sensiblement transversale.Thus, when a user wishes to transport a part of a motor vehicle, for example a door panel, from one site to another, for example from a production site to an assembly site, or for storage purposes, the piece, it opens one of the
Il déplace ensuite le système porteur 14 depuis la position dégagée à l'écart des rails 16 vers la position engagée sur les rails 16 dans une direction sensiblement transversale.It then moves the
Il incline alors les crochets 24 vers le haut d'un angle α par rapport à l'horizontale et insère les rails 16 dans les cavités 56 par les fentes 58, en conservant l'inclinaison du crochet 24.It then inclines the
Les crochets se trouvent ainsi dans leur position d'extraction (
L'utilisateur relâche ensuite le système porteur 14.The user then releases the
Les crochets 24, sous le poids du panneau de porte, sont entraînés en rotation et pivotent vers le bas autour des rails 16 jusqu'à leur position verrouillée (
Le système porteur 14 est ainsi suspendu entre les rails 16.The
Si l'utilisateur désire transporter et/ou stocker plusieurs panneaux de porte en même temps, il lui suffit de faire coulisser les crochets 24 le long des rails 16 de manière à dégager de la place et à répéter les opérations décrites précédemment autant de fois qu'il y a de panneaux de porte à suspendre.If the user wishes to transport and / or store several door panels at the same time, it suffices to slide the
Les crochets 24 conservent leur position verrouillée de sorte que le risque qu'ils s'échappent des rails 16 est limité voire supprimé.The
Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite utiliser un des panneaux de porte suspendus, il lui suffit de faire pivoter les crochets 24 du système porteur 14 correspondant autour des rails 16 depuis leur position verrouillée jusqu'à leur position d'extraction, puis d'extraire les rails 16 des cavités 56 par les fentes 58.When the user wishes to use one of the suspended door panels, it is sufficient for him to rotate the
Le système porteur 14 est ainsi libéré des rails 16 et il suffit alors à l'utilisateur de déplacer le système porteur 14 dans une direction sensiblement transversale, d'ouvrir une des parois longitudinales 34 ou la paroi de couvercle 32 du sac 22 et d'extraire le panneau de porte de l'espace de réception 26 dans une direction sensiblement transversale ou verticale.The
Ceci permet en outre de réorganiser l'ordre de stockage des différents systèmes porteurs 14 portés par les rails 16, sans avoir à retirer un grand nombre de systèmes porteurs 14.This also makes it possible to rearrange the order of storage of the
L'invention propose donc un dispositif simple et économique à fabriquer qui permette une manipulation sûre et aisée des systèmes porteurs.The invention therefore proposes a simple and economical device to manufacture which allows a safe and easy handling of the carrier systems.
En effet, le dispositif selon l'invention permet non seulement d'accrocher les systèmes porteurs des pièces sur les rails du conteneur de manière très simple, sans avoir à le faire dans un ordre prédéterminé, mais il permet également de les décrocher de manière tout aussi simple et de façon aléatoire.Indeed, the device according to the invention not only allows to hang the carrier systems of the parts on the rails of the container in a very simple way, without having to do it in a predetermined order, but it also allows to unhook them all as simple and random.
Par ailleurs, selon le mode de réalisation représenté à la
Les temps de manipulation des pièces sont ainsi réduits, entraînant de la même façon des coûts de production des véhicules automobiles concernés moindres.The handling times of the parts are thus reduced, resulting in the same way lower production costs of the motor vehicles concerned.
De plus, lors du transport et/ou du stockage, les pièces sont protégées par les sacs des systèmes porteurs qui ne peuvent pas, en raison de la position verrouillée des crochets, se détacher des rails.In addition, during transport and / or storage, the parts are protected by the carrier systems bags that can not, because of the locked position of the hooks, detach from the rails.
En outre, le fait de fabriquer les crochets en matière plastique et les sacs en matière textile ou plastique permet d'obtenir des systèmes porteurs légers et simples à fabriquer.In addition, the manufacture of plastic hooks and bags made of textile or plastic material makes it possible to obtain support systems that are light and simple to manufacture.
Par ailleurs, la conception des crochets ainsi que leur fixation sur les sacs permet d'adapter l'invention à tout type de sac présent sur le marché.Moreover, the design of the hooks and their attachment to the bags makes it possible to adapt the invention to any type of bag present on the market.
