Description

ENSEMBLE DE SERRURE D'OUVRANT DE VEHICULE  VEHICLE OPENING LOCK ASSEMBLY
L'invention concerne un ensemble de serrure d'ouvrant de véhicule, notamment un capot ou une porte de coffre du véhicule, serrure destinée à être fixée sur un élément de carrosserie de ce dernier. The invention relates to a set of vehicle door lock, including a hood or a trunk door of the vehicle, lock for attachment to a bodywork element of the latter.
De façon classique dans un véhicule, la serrure est destinée à être fixée sur une façade technique du véhicule et à s'engager avec une gâche fixée, quant à elle, sur l'ouvrant concerné, au moment de la fermeture de l'ouvrant sur la façade avant technique.  In a conventional manner in a vehicle, the lock is intended to be fixed on a technical facade of the vehicle and engage with a strike fixed, in turn, on the opening concerned, at the time of closure of the opening on the front technical front.
Or, au moment de la fermeture de l'ouvrant, en cas de mauvais alignement de la serrure et de la gâche, leur engagement peut entraîner des contraintes et des déformations de l'ouvrant.  However, at the time of closure of the opening, in case of misalignment of the lock and strike, their engagement can cause stresses and deformations of the opening.
Pour ajuster leur position relative, la serrure peut comprendre des moyens permettant un réglage en position verticale de cette dernière sur la façade technique, de type trous de fixation oblongs, par exemple.  To adjust their relative position, the lock may include means for adjustment in the vertical position of the latter on the technical front, oblong type of fixing holes, for example.
Lors du montage de la serrure, cette dernière est préalablement placée dans une position non réglée sur la façade technique par des moyens de vissage non serrés. L'ouvrant est ensuite fermé.  When mounting the lock, the latter is previously placed in a position not set on the technical front by non-tightened screwing means. The opening is then closed.
Lors de la fermeture, la serrure vient en prise avec la gâche, modifiant sa position horizontale et verticale sur la façade technique jusqu'à une position dite réglée dans laquelle l'ouvrant n'est pas déformé.  When closing, the lock engages the strike, changing its horizontal and vertical position on the technical front to a so-called set position in which the opening is not deformed.
Il est alors nécessaire de maintenir la serrure dans la position réglée pour la fixer définitivement dans cette position à la façade technique, grâce au serrage des moyens de vissage, l'ouvrant étant toujours fermé.  It is then necessary to keep the lock in the set position to permanently fix it in this position to the technical front, thanks to the tightening of the screwing means, the opening being always closed.
Ce montage est fastidieux car il est extrêmement difficile d'accéder à la serrure et à ses fixations avec la façade technique lorsque l'ouvrant est fermé.  This assembly is tedious because it is extremely difficult to access the lock and its fasteners with the technical front when the door is closed.
Ce montage est même impossible sur des véhicules dans lesquels l'ouvrant est dit très recouvrant.  This assembly is even impossible on vehicles in which the opening is said to be very overlapping.
Un but de la présente invention est de remédier aux inconvénients précités.  An object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
Ainsi, un but de la présente invention est de proposer un ensemble de serrure d'ouvrant de véhicule offrant la possibilité de régler et fixer la position de la serrure lorsque l'ouvrant est fermé sur des véhicules présentant des ouvrants très recouvrants. Il est également désirable de proposer un ensemble de serrure d'ouvrant de véhicule simple à mettre en œuvre tout en étant précis dans le réglage de la position relative de la gâche et de la serrure, évitant ainsi toute déformation de l'ouvrant. Thus, an object of the present invention is to provide a set of vehicle opening lock offering the possibility of adjusting and fixing the position of the lock when the opening is closed on vehicles with very overlapping opening. It is also desirable to provide a set of vehicle door lock simple to implement while being accurate in adjusting the relative position of the striker and the lock, thus avoiding any deformation of the opening.

D'autres aspects, buts et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée suivante d'une forme de réalisation préférée de celle-ci, donnée à titre d'exemple non limitatif et faite en référence aux figures annexées : Other aspects, objects and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment thereof, given by way of non-limiting example and with reference to the appended figures:
- La figure 1 est une vue avant en perspective d'un ensemble de serrure d'ouvrant de véhicule selon un mode de réalisation de la présente invention monté sur une façade avant technique du véhicule; - La figure 2 est une seconde vue avant en perspective de l'ensemble de la figure 1 ; - Figure 1 is a front perspective view of a set of vehicle door lock according to an embodiment of the present invention mounted on a front technical front of the vehicle; - Figure 2 is a second perspective view in front of the assembly of Figure 1;
- La figure 3 est une vue agrandie de la zone A de l'ensemble de la figure 1 ;  FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of the zone A of the assembly of FIG. 1;
- La figure 4 est une vue agrandie de la zone B de l'ensemble de la figure 1 ;  FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of the zone B of the assembly of FIG. 1;
- Les figures 5 et 6 représentent deux vues en perspective de moyens de réglage de la position relative de l'ensemble de la figure 1 par rapport à la façade avant technique, respectivement aux extrémités supérieure et inférieure du dispositif.  - Figures 5 and 6 show two perspective views of means for adjusting the relative position of the assembly of Figure 1 relative to the front technical front, respectively at the upper and lower ends of the device.
Sur l'ensemble des figures, on définit un système d'axes X, Y, Z attaché au véhicule. De façon conventionnelle, l'axe X représente l'axe longitudinal de roulement du véhicule, l'axe Y représente l'axe transversal du véhicule, et l'axe Z représente l'axe vertical du véhicule. In all the figures, a system of axes X, Y, Z attached to the vehicle is defined. Conventionally, the X axis represents the longitudinal axis of rolling of the vehicle, the Y axis represents the transverse axis of the vehicle, and the Z axis represents the vertical axis of the vehicle.
Sur la figure 1 , on observe une façade technique d'un véhicule s'étendant longitudinalement selon Y, désignée par la référence générale 1 .  In Figure 1, there is a technical facade of a vehicle extending longitudinally along Y, designated by the general reference 1.
Dans un exemple non limitatif, cette façade 1 peut être une façade avant technique.  In a non-limiting example, this facade 1 may be a front technical front.
Une telle façade 1 est un élément de carrosserie du véhicule destinée à recevoir divers équipements du véhicule tels que des projecteurs ou des clignotants.  Such a facade 1 is a bodywork element of the vehicle for receiving various equipment of the vehicle such as projectors or turn signals.
Elle se fixe sur des éléments de structure latéraux du véhicule tels que des appuis de façade (fixés en bout de brancards AV) par des moyens de fixation adaptés.  It is fixed on lateral structural elements of the vehicle such as facade supports (fixed at the end of AV stretchers) by suitable fastening means.
Par ailleurs, une poutre pare choc 2 longitudinale, illustrée sur la figure 1 , est mise en place à l'avant de la façade avant technique et est destinée à se fixer à une caisse du véhicule avec des moyens adaptés.  Furthermore, a longitudinal bumper beam 2, illustrated in Figure 1, is placed in front of the front technical front and is intended to be attached to a vehicle body with suitable means.
Un ouvrant, non illustré sur la figure 1 , est adapté pour se refermer sur la façade avant technique 1 .  An opening, not shown in Figure 1, is adapted to close on the front technical front 1.
Dans un exemple non limitatif, cet ouvrant est le capot du véhicule. In a non-limiting example, this opening is the hood of the vehicle.
Afin d'assurer la fermeture de ce dernier, on prévoit une serrure 10 (visible sur la figure 1 ) destinée à être placée sur la façade avant technique 1 coopérant avec une gâche destinée à être fixée directement sur le capot. De façon connue, cette serrure 10 peut comprendre un mécanisme de pêne-cliquet et une ouverture de gâche dans laquelle la gâche vient en prise avec la serrure 10 pour coopérer avec le mécanisme pêne-cliquet. To ensure the closure of the latter, there is provided a lock 10 (visible in Figure 1) to be placed on the front technical front 1 cooperating with a striker intended to be fixed directly on the hood. Known manner, this lock 10 may comprise a latch-bolt mechanism and a strike opening in which the striker engages the lock 10 to cooperate with the latch-bolt mechanism.
Par ailleurs, afin de renforcer la mise en place de la serrure 10 sur la façade avant technique 1 , cette dernière est renforcée par un profilé de renfort 30.  Moreover, in order to reinforce the installation of the lock 10 on the technical front panel 1, the latter is reinforced by a reinforcing section 30.
Ce profilé 30, illustré sur les figures 1 et 2, comprend une plaque de fixation 31 de la serrure 10 prévue pour être mise en place sur la face avant de la façade 1 entre la façade 1 et la serrure 10.  This profile 30, illustrated in Figures 1 and 2, comprises a fixing plate 31 of the lock 10 provided to be placed on the front face of the facade 1 between the facade 1 and the lock 10.
Cette plaque de fixation, s'étendant suivant Y, est prolongée dans sa partie médiane par une portion 32 de maintien du profilé de renfort 30 sur la façade avant technique 1 , dirigée selon X.  This fixing plate, extending along Y, is extended in its median portion by a portion 32 for maintaining the reinforcing profile 30 on the front technical front 1, directed along X.
Cette portion 32 peut présenter une forme de section générale en U complémentaire d'une traverse de la façade avant technique 1 .  This portion 32 may have a U-shaped general sectional shape of a cross member of the technical front panel 1.
Dans un premier exemple non limitatif, on vient insérer à force ou par encliquetage la traverse de la façade avant technique 1 dans la concavité de la portion 32, rendant solidaire le profilé de renfort 30 et cette dernière.  In a first non-limiting example, the crosspiece of the technical front panel 1 is inserted by force or by snapping into the concavity of the portion 32, making the reinforcing section 30 and the latter integral.
Dans un second exemple non limitatif, cette portion est rapportée sur la façade avant technique et fixée à cette dernière par des moyens de fixation de type vissage adaptés.  In a second nonlimiting example, this portion is reported on the front technical front and fixed to the latter by suitable fastening screw type means.
Avantageusement, ce profilé de renfort 30 permet d'offrir la position de la serrure 10 sur l'avant du véhicule tout en conservant une même interface sur tout type de véhicule ayant le même soubassement.  Advantageously, this reinforcing profile 30 makes it possible to offer the position of the lock 10 on the front of the vehicle while maintaining the same interface on any type of vehicle having the same base.
Selon l'invention, afin de régler la position relative de la serrure 10 par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 afin qu'elle coopère avec la gâche lors de la fermeture du capot, un support de positionnement 20 est interposé entre la serrure 10 et la façade avant technique 1 .  According to the invention, in order to adjust the relative position of the lock 10 with respect to the technical front panel 1 so that it cooperates with the latch when closing the cover, a positioning support 20 is interposed between the lock 10 and the front technical front 1.
Ce support vertical 20 est destiné, d'une part, à se fixer à la façade avant technique 1 et à la poutre pare-choc 2 et, d'autre part, à loger la serrure 10 du capot.  This vertical support 20 is intended, on the one hand, to attach to the front technical front 1 and the bumper beam 2 and, on the other hand, to accommodate the lock 10 of the cover.
Il est adapté pour permettre le réglage de la position relative de la serrure 10 et de la façade avant technique 1 avant la fixation du support 20 sur le profilé de renfort 30 et la poutre de pare-choc 2.  It is adapted to allow adjustment of the relative position of the lock 10 and the technical front panel 1 before the fixing of the support 20 to the reinforcing section 30 and the bumper beam 2.
Plus précisément, tel qu'illustré sur les figures 1 et 2, un tel support de positionnement comprend un profilé 21 , s'étendant dans le plan YZ, de forme générale rectangulaire dans lequel une ouverture centrale 22 est ménagée. Cette ouverture 22 permet d'alléger la pièce et de ne pas obstruer la prise d'air. More precisely, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, such a positioning support comprises a profile 21, extending in the plane YZ, of rectangular general shape in which a central opening 22 is formed. This opening 22 makes it possible to lighten the room and not to obstruct the air intake.
En partie supérieure, le profilé 21 comprend des moyens de fixation 23 sur le profilé de renfort 30.  In the upper part, the profile 21 comprises fixing means 23 on the reinforcement section 30.
Ces moyens de fixation 23 peuvent se présenter sous la forme d'orifices de fixation en regard d'orifices correspondants présents sur le profilé de renfort 30 pour le passage d'éléments de vissage avec lesquels ils sont susceptibles de coopérer pour fixer de façon solidaire le profilé de renfort 30 et le support de positionnement 20.  These fastening means 23 may be in the form of fixing orifices facing corresponding orifices present on the reinforcing profile 30 for the passage of screw elements with which they are capable of cooperating to fix integrally the reinforcing profile 30 and the positioning support 20.
Tel qu'illustré sur la figure 4, le profilé 21 comprend, en outre, dans sa partie inférieure opposée, en regard de la poutre de pare-choc 2, des moyens de fixation 24 à cette dernière ou à une équerre de fixation 3 (visible sur la figure 2) intercalée entre le profilé 21 et la poutre de pare-choc 2 et destinée à se fixer à la poutre 2 et au profilé 21 .  As illustrated in FIG. 4, the profile 21 further comprises, in its opposite lower part, opposite the bumper beam 2, fastening means 24 to the latter or to a fixing bracket 3 (FIG. visible in Figure 2) interposed between the section 21 and the bumper beam 2 and intended to be fixed to the beam 2 and the section 21.
Ces moyens de fixation 24 peuvent être similaires à ceux décrits pour fixer le support de positionnement 20 au profilé de renfort 30.  These fixing means 24 may be similar to those described for fixing the positioning support 20 to the reinforcement section 30.
Ces moyens de fixation 24 comprennent, dans un exemple non limitatif illustré sur la figure 1 , deux trous de fixation 25 destinés à coopérer avec des trous de fixation en regard ménagés sur la poutre de pare-choc 2 préalablement fixée à la façade avant technique 1 ou à l'équerre de fixation 3 précitée, l'ensemble poutre de pare-choc 2 et support de positionnement 20 étant rendu solidaire par des moyens de vissage adaptés.  These fastening means 24 comprise, in a nonlimiting example illustrated in FIG. 1, two fixing holes 25 intended to cooperate with fixing fixing holes formed on the bumper beam 2 previously attached to the front panel 1 or at the fixing bracket 3 above, the bumper beam assembly 2 and positioning support 20 being secured by suitable screwing means.
Par ailleurs, le support de positionnement 20 présente sur sa face avant opposée à la façade avant technique 1 , en partie supérieure, un logement 26 (visible sur la figure 2) dont la forme et les dimensions sont adaptées pour recevoir la serrure 10.  Furthermore, the positioning support 20 has on its front face opposite the front technical front 1, in the upper part, a housing 26 (visible in Figure 2) whose shape and dimensions are adapted to receive the lock 10.
La serrure 10 est fixée dans ce logement 26 par des moyens de fixation adaptés.  The lock 10 is fixed in this housing 26 by suitable fastening means.
Tel qu'illustré sur la figure 1 , la serrure 10 présente à ses deux extrémités longitudinales deux orifices 1 1 de fixation destinés à coopérer avec des orifices de fixation (non illustrés) en regard ménagés sur le support de positionnement 20, l'ensemble serrure 10 et support de positionnement 20 étant rendu solidaire par des moyens de vissage adaptés.  As illustrated in FIG. 1, the lock 10 has, at its two longitudinal ends, two fixing orifices 1 1 intended to cooperate with fastening orifices (not shown) in view formed on the positioning support 20, the lock assembly. 10 and positioning support 20 being secured by suitable screwing means.
Ainsi, contrairement aux dispositifs de positionnement de l'art antérieur, la serrure 10 n'est plus fixée directement sur la façade avant technique 1 , ce qui facilite son réglage en position, comme on va le voir plus loin. Thus, unlike the positioning devices of the prior art, the lock 10 is no longer directly attached to the front panel. technique 1, which facilitates its adjustment in position, as will be seen below.
Tel qu'illustré sur les figures 5 et 6, le support de positionnement 20 comprend également des moyens 40 de réglage de la position relative de la serrure 10 par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 lorsque le capot se ferme, ces moyens coopérant avec des moyens complémentaires ménagés sur la façade avant technique 1 ou le profilé de renfort 30.  As illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6, the positioning support 20 also comprises means 40 for adjusting the relative position of the lock 10 with respect to the technical front panel 1 when the cover closes, these means cooperating with complementary means provided on the technical front panel 1 or the reinforcement section 30.
Ces moyens de réglage 40 sont mis en place en partie supérieure (figure 5) et /ou inférieure du profilé 21 du support de positionnement 20.  These adjustment means 40 are put in place at the top (FIG. 5) and / or bottom of the profile 21 of the positioning support 20.
Plus précisément, le support de positionnement 20 et la façade avant technique 1 comprennent des moyens adaptés de sorte à permettre un déplacement relatif du support de positionnement 20 et de la serrure 10 solidaire de ce dernier par rapport à la façade 1 dans au moins une direction privilégiée lorsque le capot se ferme pour régler la position relative de la serrure 10 et de la gâche.  More specifically, the positioning support 20 and the technical front panel 1 comprise means adapted so as to allow relative movement of the positioning support 20 and the lock 10 secured to the latter relative to the facade 1 in at least one direction preferred when the hood closes to adjust the relative position of the lock 10 and the striker.
En effet, cette dernière entraîne le déplacement du support de positionnement 20 et de la serrure lorsqu'elle vient en prise avec la serrure 10 lors de la fermeture du capot.  Indeed, the latter causes the displacement of the positioning support 20 and the lock when it engages with the lock 10 when closing the cover.
Dans une variante de réalisation de la présente invention, le support de positionnement 20 et la façade avant technique 1 comprennent des moyens adaptés de sorte à permettre un déplacement du support de positionnement 20 et de la serrure 10 solidaire de ce dernier dans au moins une direction privilégiée perpendiculaire à la façade avant technique 1 et/ou dans le plan de la façade avant technique 1 .  In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the positioning support 20 and the technical front panel 1 comprise means adapted so as to allow movement of the positioning support 20 and the lock 10 secured to the latter in at least one direction. privileged perpendicular to the front technical front 1 and / or in the plane of the front technical front 1.
Plus précisément, les moyens 40 de réglage de la position relative de la serrure 10 par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 comprennent un ou plusieurs crochets 41 faisant saillie du profilé 21 selon l'axe X, de façon perpendiculaire et en direction de la façade avant technique 1 , ces crochets 41 étant destinés à coopérer avec des éléments ménagés sur la façade avant technique 1 ou le profilé de renfort 3.  More specifically, the means 40 for adjusting the relative position of the lock 10 relative to the technical front panel 1 comprise one or more hooks 41 projecting from the section 21 along the axis X, perpendicularly and in the direction of the facade. before technical 1, these hooks 41 being intended to cooperate with elements provided on the technical front panel 1 or the reinforcing section 3.
Ces crochets 41 sont, dans un exemple non limitatif de la présente invention, des éléments de section en forme de L tournée de 90°.  These hooks 41 are, in a non-limiting example of the present invention, L-shaped section elements turned 90 °.
Dans un exemple non limitatif, les éléments coopérants ménagés sur la façade avant technique 1 comprennent un rebord 4 replié formé sur la face avant de la façade avant technique 1 et adapté pour former une gorge 5 longitudinale selon Y dans la concavité de laquelle vient s'insérer une branche de chaque crochet 41 du support de positionnement 20, comme illustré sur la figure 6. In a nonlimiting example, the cooperating elements formed on the technical front panel 1 comprise a folded rim 4 formed on the front face of the technical front panel 1 and adapted to form a longitudinal groove 5 along Y in the concavity of which insert a branch each hook 41 of the positioning support 20, as illustrated in FIG. 6.
Il est à noter qu'une variante de réalisation propose de former la gorge 5 sur le profilé de renfort 30 dans une partie correspondante à la partie supérieure du support de positionnement 20.  It should be noted that an alternative embodiment proposes forming the groove 5 on the reinforcement section 30 in a part corresponding to the upper part of the positioning support 20.
Les dimensions de cette gorge longitudinale 5 sont adaptées pour permettre aux crochets 41 de se déplacer dans des directions privilégiés perpendiculairement à la façade et/ou dans le plan de cette dernière tout en maintenant le support de positionnement 20 prémaintenu sur la façade avant technique 1 .  The dimensions of this longitudinal groove 5 are adapted to allow the hooks 41 to move in privileged directions perpendicular to the facade and / or in the plane thereof while maintaining the positioning support 20 premaintenu on the front technical front 1.
Cette gorge 5 est ainsi adaptée pour guider les crochets 41 dans leur déplacement lorsque le support de positionnement 20 et la serrure 10 solidaire de ce dernier sont déplacés lors de la fermeture du capot et la venue en prise de la gâche avec ladite serrure 10.  This groove 5 is thus adapted to guide the hooks 41 in their displacement when the positioning support 20 and the lock 10 secured to the latter are displaced during the closure of the cover and the engagement of the striker with said lock 10.
Le support de positionnement 20 et la serrure 10 associée étant réglés par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 , ils sont maintenus dans cette position réglée grâce aux moyens de fixation du support 20 à la poutre pare- choc 2 précités, lesquels sont avantageusement accessibles lorsque le capot est fermé.  The positioning support 20 and the associated lock 10 being adjusted relative to the technical front panel 1, they are maintained in this set position by means of fastening the support 20 to the aforementioned bumper beam 2, which are advantageously accessible when the hood is closed.
Un procédé de réglage relatif de la serrure 10 par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 de manière à coopérer avec la gâche du capot pour obtenir une fermeture correcte du capot est le suivant.  A method of relative adjustment of the lock 10 relative to the technical front panel 1 so as to cooperate with the latch of the cover to obtain a correct closure of the cover is as follows.
En premier lieu, en bord de ligne de montage, la serrure 10 est placée dans le logement 26 prévu à cet effet sur le support de positionnement 20 auquel elle est rendue solidaire de façon adaptée par vissage.  First, at the edge of the assembly line, the lock 10 is placed in the housing 26 provided for this purpose on the positioning support 20 to which it is secured in a suitable manner by screwing.
Parallèlement, on monte la façade avant technique 1 sur la caisse du véhicule ainsi que la poutre pare-choc 2 que l'on fixe à la caisse du véhicule.  At the same time, the technical front 1 is mounted on the vehicle body and the bumper beam 2 is attached to the vehicle body.
On met ensuite en place le profilé 30 de renfort de serrure sur la façade avant technique 1 et, plus précisément, sur une traverse de cette façade 1 .  The lock reinforcement profile 30 is then put in place on the technical front panel 1 and, more specifically, on a cross member of this facade 1.
Le support de positionnement 20 est, par la suite, monté sur la façade avant technique 1 , la serrure 10 à l'opposé de la façade avant technique 1 , en insérant les crochets 41 en partie supérieure et inférieure du support 20 dans des gorges 5 longitudinales correspondantes ménagées respectivement sur le profilé de renfort 30 et la façade avant technique 1 . A ce stade, le support de positionnement 20 est prémaintenu dans une position non réglée sur la façade avant technique 1 sans être fixé définitivement à cette dernière, à savoir qu'il est mobile dans des directions privilégiées dans les gorges 5 précitées. The positioning support 20 is subsequently mounted on the technical front panel 1, the lock 10 opposite the technical front panel 1, by inserting the hooks 41 in the upper and lower part of the support 20 into grooves 5 corresponding longitudinal formed respectively on the reinforcing section 30 and the front technical front 1. At this stage, the positioning support 20 is premaintenu in a position not set on the front technical front 1 without being fixed permanently to the latter, namely that it is movable in preferred directions in the aforementioned grooves 5.
Le capot est ensuite fermé de sorte que la position de la serrure 10 relativement à la gâche se règle, la gâche devant venir en prise avec l'ouverture de gâche de la serrure 10.  The cover is then closed so that the position of the lock 10 relative to the striker is adjusted, the striker must come into engagement with the strike opening of the lock 10.
Au cours de cette fermeture, le support de positionnement 20 sur lequel est monté la serrure 10 se déplace de façon adaptée pour que la gâche vienne en prise avec la serrure 10 jusqu'à ce que le capot soit entièrement fermé.  During this closing, the positioning support 20 on which the lock 10 is mounted moves in a suitable manner so that the striker comes into engagement with the lock 10 until the cover is completely closed.
La position du support 20 et de la serrure 10 correspondante est alors considérée comme réglée.  The position of the support 20 and the corresponding lock 10 is then considered as set.
Pour être maintenu dans cette position réglée avant la réouverture du capot, on fixe ensemble grâce aux moyens de fixation 24 précités la poutre pare-choc 2 ou l'équerre de fixation 3 et le support de positionnement 20 puisqu'ils sont accessibles lorsque le capot est fermé.  To be maintained in this adjusted position before the reopening of the bonnet, the bumper beam 2 or the fastening bracket 3 and the positioning support 20 are secured together by the above-mentioned fastening means 24 since they are accessible when the bonnet is closed.
Ainsi, avantageusement, le réglage relatif de la serrure 10 du capot par rapport à la façade avant technique 1 du véhicule peut être réalisé capot fermé de façon simple et rapide.  Thus, advantageously, the relative adjustment of the lock 10 of the hood with respect to the front technical front 1 of the vehicle can be realized closed hood simply and quickly.
La nature du recouvrement du capot n'est plus considérée comme un inconvénient de montage dans la mesure où ce montage s'adapte à tout type d'ouvrant, même les plus recouvrant.  The nature of the hood cover is no longer considered a disadvantage of mounting in that this assembly fits any type of opening, even the most covering.
Le risque que la position du support de positionnement 20 et de la serrure 10 ne se modifie à la réouverture du capot étant écarté, on ouvre ce dernier pour venir fixer de façon solidaire le support 20 et la façade avant technique 1 ou le profilé de renfort 30 en partie supérieure du support de positionnement 20 par vissage.  The risk that the position of the positioning support 20 and the lock 10 does not change when the reopening of the cover being removed, it opens the latter to fix integrally the support 20 and the front technical front 1 or the reinforcing profile 30 in the upper part of the positioning support 20 by screwing.
Avec un tel procédé de montage, on s'assure avantageusement que la serrure 10 et la gâche ont des positions relatives ne déformant pas le capot.  With such a mounting method, it is ensured that the lock 10 and the keeper have relative positions not deforming the cover.
