- unillustrated return springs place the movable elements in a position where they each extend partially in the rotor and in the stator, thus preventing any relative movement thereof.
- the stator 12 being rigidly fixed to the frame 4, in the following movement of the rotor will designate a movement of the rotor relative to the stator.
- the lock comprises a peg 24 having a symmetrical shape of revolution about an axis 26 perpendicular and radial to the axis 16.
- the peg 24 has, in this case, two respectively external outer end 28 and inner end sections 30 one of the other by an annular bead 32 extending radially projecting from the two sections.
- Each of the sections has a cylindrical outer face.
- the cylindrical face of the outer section 28 has a larger diameter than that of the inner section 30.
- the outer portion 28 extends in a radial hole of the frame 4 by providing a male-female coupling.
- the bead 32 and the inner portion 30 extend, for their part, in a housing 34 with symmetry of revolution of the stator 12.
- the pin 24 therefore also carries a male-female coupling with the stator. In certain positions of the stator relative to the rotor, the pin 24 can slide along the axis 26 relative to the rotor as will be seen later. However, in all other positions, this sliding is prohibited so that the pin maintains the stator 12 rigidly fixed to the frame 4.
- the housing 34 is long enough to allow this mobility of the pin relative to the stator.
- a compression spring 36 is provided which abuts at one axial end against a shoulder of the housing 34 and at the other end against the bead 32 in order to permanently urge the pin in the direction of the axis 26 and in one direction. opposite the axis 16.
- the bead 32 abuts against the frame 4, the orifice of the latter which accommodates the pin having a sufficiently small diameter to prevent the passage of the bead and the exit of the pawn, which keeps the pawn in the stator.
- the pin is immobilized relative to the stator sliding parallel to the axis 16 and rotated about this axis.
- the inner portion 30 of the pin also passes through an inner portion of the housing 34 located beyond the shoulder.
- FIG. 4 The rigid attachment of the stator 12 to the frame has been illustrated on the figure 4 .
- a crankshaft 40 of the device which is rotatably mounted relative to the frame about the axis 16, any translation of the crankshaft relative to the chassis being prohibited.
- a compression spring 42 shown in FIG. figure 3 , is interposed in the direction of the axis 16 between the crankshaft 40 and the rotor 14 to urge the latter in the direction of the axis 16 in a direction tending to remove it from the stator, direction indicated by the arrow 44. designates in direction of depression the opposite direction which tends to drive the rotor in the stator towards the crankshaft.
- the device 2 has a groove 46 formed in this case in a cylindrical outer circumferential face 48 of the rotor 14.
- the groove has a profile "U" in a plane radial to the axis 16, the branches of the "U” forming two flanks bearing axially against the pin 24.
- the groove receives the inner portion 30.
- the width of the groove in the direction of the axis 16 slightly exceeds the diameter of the inner portion 30 so that the position of the pin in the groove determines the position of the rotor along the axis 16.
- the groove has a generally annular shape centered on the axis 16 with the exception of a baffle 48. As long as the pin is in the annular part of the groove, the rotor position along the axis remains unchanged. However, as the pawn travels through the baffle, it forces the rotor to slide along the axis.
- the driver rotates the key and the rotor relative to the stator about the axis 16 in the clockwise direction illustrated by the arrow 50. It rotates the rotor at an angle of 20 ° for example.
- the throat section traversed by the pawn of the position of the figure 5 to that of the figure 6 being an annular section, the movement of the rotor is a strict rotational movement. In other words, from one to the other of these two positions, any sliding movement of the rotor along the axis 16 is impossible.
- the peg traverses the section of the groove defined by the flanks 52 so that, under the effect of the compression spring 42, the rotor slides in the direction of the arrow 44.
- the pin finds the annular section so that the rotor reaches the stop position by a strict rotational movement.
- the maneuvers performed by the driver are therefore first a strict depression of the rotor, then a rotation of the latter. Given the shape of the groove and the presence of the spring 42, this rotation combines with sliding on part of the path of the pin in the groove.
- the sliding of the rotor is effected on a stroke of 2.6 mm for example.
- the bottom 60 of the groove is sufficiently high in the radial direction to prohibit any movement of the pin 24 towards the axis 16.
- this area is contiguous to the face 54 and is accessible by the pin when the rotor is in the on position.
- the rotor 14 is introduced into the stator 12 from the internal axial end 62 of the latter opposite to that contiguous to the opening 23 and the rotor is placed in the on position.
- the spring 36 and the pin 24 are then placed in the housing 34 until it enters the groove 46 and the zone 55 against the spring 36 so that the external axial end of the pin does not exceed the cylindrical face 48.
- This assembly is introduced into the outer axial end of the frame 4. Once the pin arrives opposite the orifice of the frame which is intended for it, it is deployed radially under the effect of the spring 36. The rotor, the stator the pawn and the frame are then assembled.
- the groove is carried by the stator and the pin by the rotor.
- the groove could be formed on a face perpendicular to the axis 16 of the rotor or the stator and not on a circumferential face.

Description
L'invention concerne les dispositifs antivol pour colonne de direction de véhicule.The invention relates to antitheft devices for vehicle steering column.
Le document
On connaît de tels dispositifs comprenant un verrou et un mécanisme à pêne. Lorsque le véhicule est à l'arrêt, une rotation du volant de direction entraîne le déploiement du pêne suivant une direction non parallèle à l'axe de la colonne de sorte qu'il vient en prise avec cette dernière et empêche toute manoeuvre du volant. Lorsque l'utilisateur introduit la clé de contact dans le verrou, le mécanisme rétracte le pêne pour déverrouiller la colonne et libérer le volant.Such devices are known comprising a latch and a bolt mechanism. When the vehicle is stationary, a rotation of the steering wheel causes the deployment of the bolt in a direction not parallel to the axis of the column so that it comes into engagement with the latter and prevents any maneuvering of the steering wheel. When the user enters the ignition key into the lock, the mechanism retracts the bolt to unlock the column and release the steering wheel.
Dans une version perfectionnée de ce dispositif, lorsque le véhicule est en marche, la clé ne peut pas être extraite du verrou par un simple mouvement de rotation de la clé et du rotor dans le stator du verrou. Il est nécessaire d'enfoncer préalablement la clé dans le verrou pour pouvoir ensuite l'en extraire. On prévient ainsi toute extraction intempestive ou malveillante de la clé, notamment en raison du danger que l'extraction de la clé représenterait lorsque le véhicule est en marche. En particulier, on évite qu'un enfant transporté sur un siège avant du véhicule puisse saisir la clé pendant le transport.In an improved version of this device, when the vehicle is running, the key can not be extracted from the latch by a simple rotational movement of the key and the rotor in the latch stator. It is necessary to insert the key beforehand into the lock before being able to extract it. This prevents any inadvertent or malicious extraction of the key, especially because of the danger that the extraction of the key would represent when the vehicle is running. In particular, it is avoided that a child transported to a front seat of the vehicle can seize the key during transport.
Néanmoins, les mécanismes prévus à ce jour pour obtenir les fonctionnalités précitées sont relativement compliqués à assembler et coûteux.Nevertheless, the mechanisms provided to date to obtain the aforementioned functionalities are relatively complicated to assemble and expensive.
Un but de l'invention est de fournir un mécanisme plus simple à assembler et moins coûteux pour l'obtention de ces fonctionnalités.An object of the invention is to provide a simpler mechanism to assemble and less expensive to obtain these features.
A cet effet, on prévoit selon l'invention un dispositif antivol pour colonne de direction de véhicule, qui comprend un verrou comportant un rotor et un stator parmi lesquels l'un porte un pion et l'autre présente une gorge de réception du pion conformée de sorte que, à partir d'une position angulaire prédéterminée, une rotation du rotor par rapport au stator dans un sens prédéterminé nécessite un enfoncement préalable du rotor par rapport au stator en direction de l'intérieur du dispositif.For this purpose, there is provided according to the invention a antitheft device for a vehicle steering column, which comprises a lock comprising a rotor and a stator among which one carries a pin and the other has a shaped pin receiving groove so that, from a predetermined angular position, a rotation of the rotor relative to the stator in a predetermined direction requires a prior depression of the rotor relative to the stator towards the interior of the device.
Ainsi, le pion réalise un indexage de la position relative du rotor dans le stator en rotation et en coulissement. Lorsque le véhicule est en marche, c'est la coopération du pion avec la gorge qui interdit le retrait de la clé sans préalablement enfoncer le rotor dans le stator. Le pion peut être porté par le rotor ou par le stator selon les modes de réalisation.Thus, the pin performs indexing of the relative position of the rotor in the stator in rotation and sliding. When the vehicle is running, it is the cooperation of the pin with the groove that prohibits removal of the key without first driving the rotor into the stator. The pin may be carried by the rotor or the stator according to the embodiments.
Avantageusement, la gorge présente une face de butée pour le pion, radiale à un axe de rotation du rotor et déterminant la position angulaire.Advantageously, the groove has an abutment face for the pion, radial to an axis of rotation of the rotor and determining the angular position.
De préférence, la position étant dite de marche et le sens dit d'arrêt, la gorge est conformée de sorte qu'il est possible, sans enfoncer préalablement le rotor, de le faire tourner dans un sens contraire au sens d'arrêt pour atteindre la position de marche.Preferably, the position being said to walk and the meaning of said stop, the throat is shaped so that it is possible, without pressing the rotor beforehand, to turn it in a direction opposite to the direction of stop to reach the running position.
Ainsi, en dépit du fait qu'il faille préalablement enfoncer le rotor dans le stator pour quitter la position de marche, il est facile d'atteindre cette dernière à partir de la position d'arrêt du véhicule dans la mesure où il n'est pas nécessaire de commander une étape d'enfoncement préalable.Thus, in spite of the fact that the rotor must first be pushed into the stator in order to leave the running position, it is easy to reach the latter from the stopping position of the vehicle insofar as it is not no need to order a prior driving step.
De préférence, le dispositif est agencé de sorte qu'une action sur le rotor pour le faire tourner dans un sens contraire au sens d'arrêt suffit pour le placer dans la position de marche.Preferably, the device is arranged so that an action on the rotor to rotate it in a direction opposite to the stop direction is sufficient to place it in the running position.
Ainsi, l'utilisateur commande seulement la rotation du rotor. La gorge coopère avec le pion pour faire coulisser le rotor dans le stator au moment opportun durant le mouvement du rotor. La manoeuvre du verrou demeure donc simple pour l'utilisateur en dépit du fait que le rotor se déplace avec différents types de mouvements lorsqu'il parcourt sa trajectoire.Thus, the user only controls the rotation of the rotor. The groove cooperates with the pin to slide the rotor into the stator at the appropriate time during the movement of the rotor. The operation of the lock remains simple for the user despite the fact that the rotor moves with different types of movements as it travels its path.
Avantageusement, la gorge est conformée de sorte qu'il existe au moins une position angulaire du rotor dans laquelle tout coulissement du rotor dans le stator est impossible.Advantageously, the groove is shaped so that there is at least one angular position of the rotor in which any sliding of the rotor in the stator is impossible.
De préférence, le dispositif comprend un ressort de rappel sollicitant le rotor dans un sens opposé à l'enfoncement.Preferably, the device comprises a return spring urging the rotor in a direction opposite to the depression.
On facilite ainsi la manoeuvre du verrou.This facilitates the operation of the lock.
Dans un mode de réalisation, la gorge est ménagée dans une face circonférentielle du rotor ou du stator.In one embodiment, the groove is formed in a circumferential face of the rotor or stator.
De préférence, le pion est immobilisé par rapport au stator à coulissement parallèlement à un axe de rotation du rotor et à rotation autour de cet axe.Preferably, the pin is immobilized with respect to the sliding stator parallel to an axis of rotation of the rotor and rotating around this axis.
Avantageusement, le dispositif comprend un châssis, le pion étant en prise avec le châssis en immobilisant rigidement le stator par rapport au châssis.Advantageously, the device comprises a frame, the pin being engaged with the frame rigidly immobilizing the stator relative to the frame.
Ainsi, le pion assure non seulement la fonction d'indexation précitée mais aussi le positionnement rigide du stator par rapport au châssis du dispositif.Thus, the pin ensures not only the aforementioned indexing function but also the rigid positioning of the stator relative to the frame of the device.
De préférence, le rotor présente une cavité apte à recevoir le pion dans une position telle que le pion s'étend dans le stator sans dépasser d'une face externe de ce dernier.Preferably, the rotor has a cavity adapted to receive the pin in a position such that the pin extends into the stator without protruding from an outer face of the latter.
Cette cavité permet la réception temporaire du pion pour le montage du verrou dans le châssis.This cavity allows the temporary reception of the pin for mounting the lock in the frame.

On a illustré aux
La partie de verrouillage 6 comprend un verrou 10 comprenant un stator 12 et un rotor 14 reçu dans un logement du stator. Le rotor 14 est monté mobile à rotation par rapport au stator autour d'un axe 16 de la partie de verrouillage 6. Il est également monté mobile à coulissement par rapport au stator suivant ce même axe 16. Le rotor est donc monté en liaison pivot glissant par rapport au stator.The
Le dispositif est agencé de sorte que, lorsque le conducteur actionne le verrou au moyen d'un insert tel qu'une clé 20 prévue à cet effet pour faire démarrer le véhicule, le dispositif fait passer le pêne en position de déblocage s'il ne s'y trouvait pas déjà, de façon à permettre la manoeuvre de la colonne.The device is arranged so that, when the driver actuates the lock by means of an insert such as a key provided for this purpose to start the vehicle, the device passes the bolt unlocked position if it does not it was not there already, so as to allow the maneuvering of the column.
Le verrou 6 comprend des éléments non illustrés tels que des paillettes montées mobiles à coulissement dans des logements 18 du rotor et du stator. Le rotor présente un logement interne 22 présentant une embouchure axiale externe 23. Lorsque la clé 20 est introduite dans le logement 22 par l'embouchure 23, elle place les éléments mobiles dans une configuration telle qu'ils s'étendent intégralement chacun dans le rotor et autorisent la rotation de ce dernier par rapport au stator. En l'absence de la clé, des ressorts de rappel non illustrés placent les éléments mobiles dans une position où ils s'étendent chacun partiellement dans le rotor et dans le stator, empêchant ainsi tout mouvement relatif de ceux-ci.The
Le stator 12 étant fixé rigidement au châssis 4, dans la suite tout mouvement du rotor désignera un mouvement du rotor par rapport au stator.The
Le verrou comprend un pion 24 ayant une forme à symétrie de révolution autour d'un axe 26 perpendiculaire et radial à l'axe 16. Le pion 24 présente, en l'espèce, deux tronçons d'extrémité respectivement externe 28 et interne 30 séparés l'un de l'autre par un bourrelet annulaire 32 s'étendant en saillie radiale des deux tronçons. Chacun des tronçons présente une face externe cylindrique.The lock comprises a
La face cylindrique du tronçon externe 28 a un plus grand diamètre que celle du tronçon interne 30. Lorsque le dispositif est monté comme illustré à la
La fixation rigide du stator 12 au châssis a été illustrée sur la
Le dispositif 2 présente une gorge 46 ménagée en l'espèce dans une face externe circonférentielle cylindrique 48 du rotor 14. La gorge a un profil en « U » dans un plan radial à l'axe 16, les branches du « U » formant deux flancs venant en appui axial contre le pion 24. La gorge reçoit le tronçon interne 30. La largeur de la gorge suivant la direction de l'axe 16 excède légèrement le diamètre du tronçon interne 30 de sorte que la position du pion dans la gorge détermine la position du rotor le long de l'axe 16. La gorge présente une forme générale annulaire centrée sur l'axe 16 à l'exception d'une chicane 48. Tant que le pion se situe dans la partie annulaire de la gorge, la position du rotor le long de l'axe reste inchangée. Toutefois, lorsque le pion parcourt la chicane, il force le rotor à coulisser le long de l'axe.The
Nous allons présenter plus en détails la forme de la gorge au cours de la description suivante de l'utilisation du dispositif.We will present in more detail the shape of the groove during the following description of the use of the device.
On suppose, en référence à la

A partir de la position de marche, il est possible de poursuivre la rotation du rotor dans le sens 50 dans la mesure où le pion se trouve à l'entrée d'un autre tronçon annulaire de la gorge. Il s'agit alors d'un strict mouvement de rotation du rotor. En revanche, tout mouvement de rotation du rotor, strict ou pas, dans le sens inverse, est interdit car il est empêché par la mise en butée du pion 24 contre la face 54. Il n'est donc pas possible de faire tourner le rotor de façon volontaire ou involontaire à partir de la position de marche pour lui faire regagner la position d'arrêt et ôter la clé.From the running position, it is possible to continue the rotation of the rotor in the
Perçu par le conducteur, le passage de la position d'arrêt à la position de marche a requis seulement de faire tourner la clé avec le rotor dans le sens 50. La gorge 46 et le ressort 42 ont provoqué le coulissement du rotor lorsque cela était nécessaire.Perceived by the driver, the transition from the stop position to the operating position required only to turn the key with the rotor in the
Pour faire parcourir au rotor le trajet de la position de marche à la position d'arrêt, il est nécessaire de commencer par enfoncer le rotor pour lui donner un strict mouvement de coulissement suivant l'axe 16 afin de faire franchir la face 54 au pion 24.To make the rotor traverse the path from the running position to the stop position, it is necessary to start by pressing the rotor to give it a strict sliding movement along the
A l'issue de ce strict mouvement de coulissement du rotor, effectué par l'action volontaire du conducteur sur la clé en l'enfonçant dans le verrou, le conducteur fait tourner le rotor dans le sens contraire au sens 50 pour lui faire franchir le fond de la chicane. Il s'agit d'un mouvement de rotation strict.At the end of this strict sliding movement of the rotor, performed by the voluntary action of the driver on the key by pushing it into the lock, the driver rotates the rotor in the opposite direction to the
Puis, en poursuivant le mouvement de rotation, le pion parcourt le tronçon de la gorge définit par les flancs 52 de sorte que, sous l'effet du ressort de compression 42, le rotor coulisse dans le sens de la flèche 44.Then, continuing the rotational movement, the peg traverses the section of the groove defined by the
Enfin, le pion retrouve le tronçon annulaire de sorte que le rotor atteint la position d'arrêt par un strict mouvement de rotation.Finally, the pin finds the annular section so that the rotor reaches the stop position by a strict rotational movement.
Pour le passage de la position de marche à la position d'arrêt, les manoeuvres effectuées par le conducteur sont donc tout d'abord un strict enfoncement du rotor, puis une mise en rotation de ce dernier. Compte tenu de la forme de la gorge et de la présence du ressort 42, cette rotation se combine à un coulissement sur une partie du trajet du pion dans la gorge.For the passage from the running position to the stop position, the maneuvers performed by the driver are therefore first a strict depression of the rotor, then a rotation of the latter. Given the shape of the groove and the presence of the
On peut prévoir que le coulissement du rotor s'effectue sur une course de 2,6 mm par exemple.It can be provided that the sliding of the rotor is effected on a stroke of 2.6 mm for example.
Dans le présent exemple, sur la plus grande partie de la longueur de la gorge 46, le fond 60 de la gorge est suffisamment haut en direction radiale pour interdire tout mouvement du pion 24 en direction de l'axe 16. Il existe cependant une zone unique 55 de la gorge dans laquelle le fond est plus bas pour permettre d'enfoncer le pion en direction radiale jusqu'à mettre le bourrelet 32 en butée contre le fond du logement 34. Dans le présent exemple, cette zone est contiguë à la face 54 et est accessible par le pion lorsque le rotor est en position de marche.In the present example, over most of the length of the
Pour assembler le dispositif 2, on introduit le rotor 14 dans le stator 12 à partir de l'extrémité axiale interne 62 de ce dernier opposée à celle contiguë à l'ouverture 23 et on place le rotor dans la position de marche. On place ensuite le ressort 36 et le pion 24 dans le logement 34 jusqu'à le faire pénétrer dans la gorge 46 et la zone 55 à l'encontre du ressort 36 de sorte que l'extrémité axiale externe du pion ne dépasse pas de la face cylindrique 48.To assemble the
On introduit cet ensemble dans l'extrémité axiale externe du châssis 4. Une fois que le pion arrive en regard de l'orifice du châssis qui lui est destiné, il se déploie radialement sous l'effet du ressort 36. Le rotor, le stator, le pion et le châssis se trouvent alors assemblés.This assembly is introduced into the outer axial end of the
Bien entendu, on pourra apporter à l'invention de nombreuses modifications sans sortir du cadre de celle-ci.Of course, we can bring to the invention many changes without departing from the scope thereof.
On pourrait prévoir que la gorge est portée par le stator et le pion par le rotor.It could be provided that the groove is carried by the stator and the pin by the rotor.
La gorge pourrait être ménagée sur une face perpendiculaire à l'axe 16 du rotor ou du stator et non sur une face circonférentielle.The groove could be formed on a face perpendicular to the
La forme de la gorge pourra aussi être modifiée.The shape of the throat may also be modified.
