Description

PROCEDE DE FABRICATION ET DE MONTAGE D'UNE PARTIE AVANT METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AND MOUNTING A FRONT PART
D'UN VEHICULE AUTOMOBILE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
Domaine de l'invention : Field of the invention
La présente invention concerne l'agencement d'une partie avant d'un véhicule automobile comprenant une face avant technique. The present invention relates to the arrangement of a front part of a motor vehicle comprising a technical front.
Etat de la technique et problème posé : State of the art and problem:
La face avant technique est une structure qui a pour fonction de supporter différents organes à l'avant du véhicule et principalement le radiateur du bloc moteur. D'autres éléments ou organes de la partie avant du véhicule ou bloc moteur sont fixés à cette structure, en particulier les projecteurs avant, le bouclier, la serrure de capot etc. La partie avant du véhicule comporte également un capot de fermeture du compartiment moteur articulé sur des supports d'articulation solidaires de la structure du véhicule. La partie avant comporte également des ailes latérales reliées à des doublures de pied avant du véhicule qui sont des éléments de la structure du métallique véhicule, c'est- à-dire de la caisse en blanc issue de la phase de fabrication dite de « ferrage ». Les doublures de pied avant sont donc des parties rigides et structurelles situées en partie avant de l'encadrement de porte avant du véhicule, de chaque côté du véhicule. Les ailes avant du véhicule sont des pièces de carrosserie latérales bordant au moins en partie les passages de roue avant du véhicule. Ces ailes sont indexées et fixées sur les doublures de pied avant. Le terme indexé s'entend comme « mis en position par rapport à un second élément ». On note également que le capot est relié à la structure du véhicule via des articulations fixées sur des supports d'articulation, eux-mêmes solidaires de la structure en partie supérieure des doublures de pied avant.  The front technical is a structure that has the function of supporting different bodies at the front of the vehicle and mainly the radiator of the engine block. Other elements or members of the front part of the vehicle or engine block are fixed to this structure, in particular the front headlamps, the shield, the bonnet lock, etc. The front portion of the vehicle also comprises a closing cap of the engine compartment hinged on hinge supports integral with the vehicle structure. The front part also has lateral wings connected to front foot linings of the vehicle which are elements of the structure of the metallic vehicle, that is to say the white box resulting from the so-called "shoeing" manufacturing phase. ". The front foot linings are therefore rigid and structural parts located in front of the front door frame of the vehicle on each side of the vehicle. The front fenders of the vehicle are side body parts bordering at least in part the front wheel wells of the vehicle. These wings are indexed and fixed on the front foot linings. The term indexed is understood as "put in position relative to a second element". It is also noted that the hood is connected to the vehicle structure via articulated joints on hinge supports, themselves integral with the structure in the upper part of the front foot linings.
D'autre part, comme évoqué précédemment, la face avant technique constitue un élément d'indexation et de fixation des projecteurs avant et d'autres organes (bouclier, calandre etc.). Les projecteurs avant sont classiquement interposés entre le capot et les ailes latérales correspondantes, de sorte que les jeux et affleurements sont des paramètres essentiels à maîtriser entre les bords correspondants du capot, des projecteurs et des ailes, en particulier suivant la direction transversale au véhicule. Hors les doublures de pied avant sont mise en position avec des dispersions de positionnement pouvant atteindre +/- 2 mm, ce qui ne permet pas de s'en servir comme des références appropriées. On a déjà proposé des solutions pour assurer une mise en position relative entre certains de ces éléments. Par exemple le document EP 2 221 217 A2 décrit un dispositif d'indexation directe des projecteurs sur la face avant technique. Le document FR 2 952 341 décrit une fixation du capot et de l'aile sur une même pièce commune permettant de maîtriser les jeux et affleurement essentiellement suivant la direction verticale. Par ailleurs on a utilisé des systèmes à pions permettant d'indexer la face avant technique par rapport aux doublures de pied avant. Toutefois, ces solutions ne sont pas optimisées, surtout pour une indexation suivant la direction transversale au véhicule qui est la plus délicate à maîtriser. En outre les solutions connues assurent imparfaitement l'indexation de la face avant technique par rapport au capot. On the other hand, as mentioned above, the technical front panel is an indexing and fixing element of the headlights and other bodies (shield, calender etc.). The headlights are classically interposed between the hood and the corresponding lateral wings, so that the games and outcrops are essential parameters to be controlled between the corresponding edges of the hood, the projectors and the wings, in particular in the direction transverse to the vehicle. Outside the front foot liners are positioned with positioning dispersions up to +/- 2 mm, which does not allow to use them as appropriate references. Solutions have already been proposed to ensure relative positioning between some of these elements. For example, the document EP 2,221,217 A2 describes a device for direct indexing of the projectors on the technical front panel. The document FR 2 952 341 describes a fastening of the cover and the wing on the same common part to control the games and outcrop essentially in the vertical direction. In addition, pion systems have been used for indexing the technical front face with respect to the front foot linings. However, these solutions are not optimized, especially for indexing in the transverse direction to the vehicle that is the most difficult to control. In addition, the known solutions imperfectly ensure the indexing of the technical front face with respect to the hood.
But de l'invention : OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
Le but de l'invention est de pallier tout ou partie des inconvénients précédents en proposant un agencement d'une partie avant de véhicule et un procédé de fabrication et de montage qui garantissent une meilleure maîtrise des jeux et affleurements entre les bords correspondants du capot, des projecteurs, et des ailes. Pour bien exprimer l'objet de l'invention, les orientations sont données en référence au repère XYZ classique du véhicule dans lequel X représente la direction longitudinale avant-arrière du véhicule, orientée vers l'arrière, Y la direction transversale au véhicule, orientée vers la droite, et Z la direction verticale vers le haut. Objet de l'invention : The object of the invention is to overcome all or part of the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing an arrangement of a front part of a vehicle and a method of manufacture and assembly which guarantee better control of the play and outcropping between the corresponding edges of the cover, searchlights, and wings.

On a représenté à la figure 1 une partie avant d'un véhicule automobile ayant un agencement spécifique à l'invention. Cette partie avant du véhicule comprend une face avant technique 1 formant une structure supportant des éléments de refroidissement (non représentés) du moteur, à laquelle sont fixés un bouclier avant (non représenté) du véhicule et des projecteurs 2 avant. Seul le projecteur ou bloc optique avant gauche est représenté à la figure 1 . Le véhicule comporte en outre dans sa partie avant un capot 3 articulé sur des supports d'articulation 4 solidaires de la structure du véhicule. Le véhicule comprend également des ailes latérales 5 (figures 1 et 2) reliées à des doublures de pied avant 6 (figures 1 et 5) de la structure du véhicule. La face avant technique 1 est une structure ayant la forme générale d'un cadre orientée de façon sensiblement verticale. Elle se compose typiquement d'une poutre supérieure 101 et d'une poutre inférieure 102 reliées l'une à l'autre par des montants latéraux 103 sensiblement verticaux. Dans l'exemple illustré, les poutres sont également reliées l'une à l'autre par une poutre centrale 104 raccordée aux poutres 101 , 102 en leur milieu. Cette structure est typiquement réalisée en matière plastique et comporte des formes nervurées assurant une rigidité. Cette structure supporte classiquement le radiateur (non représenté) associé au circuit de refroidissement du véhicule et des organes ou éléments divers, tels que les projecteurs, la calandre (non représentée), le bouclier (non représenté), la serrure de capot (non représentée) etc. FIG. 1 shows a front part of a motor vehicle having an arrangement specific to the invention. This front part of the vehicle comprises a technical front panel 1 forming a structure supporting cooling elements (not shown) of the engine, to which are attached a front shield (not shown) of the vehicle and headlights 2 front. Only the front or left front optical unit is shown in Figure 1. The vehicle further comprises in its front part a hood 3 articulated on hinge supports 4 integral with the vehicle structure. The vehicle also comprises side wings 5 (FIGS. 1 and 2) connected to front foot liners 6 (FIGS. 1 and 5) of the vehicle structure. The technical front face 1 is a structure having the general shape of a frame oriented substantially vertically. It typically consists of an upper beam 101 and a lower beam 102 connected to each other by substantially vertical lateral uprights 103. In the example shown, the beams are also connected to each other by a central beam 104 connected to the beams 101, 102 in their middle. This structure is typically made of plastic material and has ribbed shapes providing rigidity. This structure conventionally supports the radiator (not shown) associated with the cooling circuit of the vehicle and bodies or various elements, such as projectors, the grille (not shown), the shield (not shown), the hood lock (not shown). etc.
Dans sa partie inférieure, la face avant technique 1 est reliée à des supports inférieurs 7 solidaires d'une partie avant des longerons du véhicule (figure 2). Un support inférieur 7 est prévu de chaque côté de la face avant technique 1 . Ces supports inférieurs 7 sont conformés pour assurer une indexation suivant la direction X par un appui de la face avant technique 1 contre une face correspondante du support 7. La fixation entre ces éléments est assurée par vissage.  In its lower part, the technical front face 1 is connected to lower supports 7 secured to a front portion of the vehicle side members (Figure 2). A lower support 7 is provided on each side of the technical front panel 1. These lower supports 7 are shaped to provide indexing in the X direction by a support of the technical front face 1 against a corresponding face of the support 7. The attachment between these elements is provided by screwing.
En partie supérieure, la face avant technique 1 comporte des bras latéraux 8 prolongeant la poutre supérieure 101 et s'étendant à l'opposé l'une de l'autre suivant la direction transversale Y. Ces bras 8 ont des extrémités 81 opposées fixées aux doublures de pied avant 6 par l'intermédiaire de supports de fixation 9. Ceux-ci sont conformés pour assurer une indexation directe d'au moins l'un des extrémités 81 sur le support de fixation 9 suivant les directions X et Z avec un degré de liberté suivant la direction Y afin de permettre un réglage de la position transversale de la face avant technique relativement au support de fixation 9. L'agencement selon l'invention permet de positionner la face avant technique 1 à une position transversale déterminée, en interposant un gabarit (non représenté) entre le capot 3 et l'une des extrémités 81 de l'un des bras latéraux 8. L'agencement est identique et symétrique des deux côtés du véhicule. In the upper part, the technical front face 1 comprises lateral arms 8 extending the upper beam 101 and extending opposite one another in the transverse direction Y. These arms 8 have opposite ends 81 fixed to the front foot liners 6 via fastening supports 9. These are shaped to ensure direct indexing of at least one of the ends 81 on the support 9 in the X and Z directions with a degree of freedom in the Y direction in order to allow adjustment of the transverse position of the technical front face relative to the fixing support 9. The arrangement according to the invention makes it possible to position the technical front face 1 at a determined transverse position, by interposing a template (not shown) between the cover 3 and one end 81 of one of the side arms 8. The arrangement is identical and symmetrical on both sides of the vehicle.
Les supports de fixation 9 ont la forme générale d'une équerre comportant une partie verticale 91 s'étendant dans le plan XZ vissée à une doublure de pied avant 6 du véhicule et une platine 92 horizontale s'étendant en équerre par rapport à la partie verticale 91 vers le compartiment moteur du véhicule. Le support de fixation 9 comporte en outre une ailette verticale 93 s'étendant dans le plan YZ à l'opposé du compartiment moteur, et prolongeant la partie verticale 91 depuis un bord avant de celle-ci (figures 3 et 4). La partie verticale 91 comporte également une patte verticale 94 s'étendant au dessus de la partie verticale 91 . Les supports de fixation 9 sont des pièces issues d'emboutissage et de pliage. La platine 92 et la patte supérieure 94 sont raccordées au bord supérieur de la partie verticale 91 respectivement à l'avant et à l'arrière de celui-ci. Les supports de fixations 9 sont fixés à la doublure de pied avant 6 correspondante par trois vis de fixation 10 traversant le support de fixation 9 suivant la direction Y (figures 3 et 5). Deux vis 10 traversent la partie verticale 91 . Une vis 10 traverse la patte supérieure 94. Comme illustré aux figures 3 et 4, la platine 92 supporte une vis 1 1 d'indexation et de serrage coopérant avec une plaquette 12 taraudée, faisant office d'écrou, emprisonnée dans une cage 13 solidaire de la platine 92. La plaquette 12 et la cage 13 sont conformées pour empêcher la rotation de la plaquette 12 autour d'un axe vertical. Comme représenté à la figure 4, la vis 1 1 se décompose de haut en bas en un pion supérieur d'indexation 1 1 1 , un épaulement 1 12 assurant un appui plan sur la platine 92, et une partie inférieure filetée 1 13 traversant la platine 92. La partie filetée 1 13 est vissée dans un orifice taraudé de la plaquette 12 d'immobilisation retenue dans la cage 13. The attachment supports 9 have the general shape of a bracket having a vertical portion 91 extending in the XZ plane screwed to a front foot liner 6 of the vehicle and a horizontal plate 92 extending at right angles to the portion vertical 91 towards the engine compartment of the vehicle. The mounting bracket 9 further includes a vertical fin 93 extending in the YZ plane away from the engine compartment, and extending the vertical portion 91 from a leading edge thereof (Figures 3 and 4). The vertical portion 91 also has a vertical leg 94 extending above the vertical portion 91. The fastening supports 9 are parts resulting from stamping and bending. The plate 92 and the upper lug 94 are connected to the upper edge of the vertical portion 91 respectively at the front and rear of the latter. The fastening supports 9 are fixed to the corresponding front foot lining 6 by three fastening screws 10 passing through the fastening support 9 in the Y direction (FIGS. 3 and 5). Two screws 10 pass through the vertical portion 91. A screw 10 passes through the upper lug 94. As illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 4, the plate 92 supports a screw 1 1 for indexing and clamping cooperating with a threaded plate 12, acting as a nut, trapped in a secured cage 13 The plate 12 and the cage 13 are shaped to prevent rotation of the wafer 12 about a vertical axis. As represented in FIG. 4, the screw 1 1 is broken down from top to bottom into an upper indexing pin 1 1 1, a shoulder 1 12 providing a plane support on the plate 92, and a threaded lower part 1 13 passing through the platinum 92. The part threaded 1 13 is screwed into a threaded orifice of the immobilization wafer 12 retained in the cage 13.
L'extrémité 81 de l'un des bras latéraux 8 de la face avant technique 1 comprend une lumière s'étendant suivant la direction Y, dans laquelle est introduite la vis 1 1 , assurant une indexation suivant les directions X (par contact avec les bords transversaux de la lumière) et Z (par appui de l'extrémité 81 sur la surface supérieure de la platine 92) tout en permettant un ajustement de la position transversale de la face avant technique 1 suivant la direction Y.  The end 81 of one of the lateral arms 8 of the technical front face 1 comprises a light extending in the direction Y, into which the screw 11 is inserted, ensuring an indexing along the X directions (by contact with the transverse edges of the light) and Z (by pressing the end 81 on the upper surface of the plate 92) while allowing an adjustment of the transverse position of the technical front face 1 in the direction Y.
On considère que le capot 3 mis en place sur ses supports d'articulation 4 est correctement positionné par rapport à la structure du véhicule. En effet le montage et la fixation du capot s'effectue lors des opérations dite de « ferrage » au cours desquels la caisse en blanc est assemblée pour constituer la structure, avec une bonne maîtrise de la géométrie en raison de la répétabilité apportée par les moyens automatisés / robotisés. En conséquence, on utilise avantageusement le capot 3 comme référence afin de positionner ensuite la face avant technique 1 . Le gabarit est ainsi positionné directement entre le capot 3 et la face avant technique 1 , ce qui prédétermine la position de celle-ci suivant la direction Y. Une fois cette position obtenue, la vis 1 1 est serrée dans la plaquette 12 pour solidariser et fixer définitivement l'extrémité 81 du bras 8 au support de fixation 9. It is considered that the cover 3 placed on its hinge supports 4 is correctly positioned relative to the vehicle structure. In fact, the assembly and fixing of the cover takes place during so-called "shoeing" operations during which the white box is assembled to form the structure, with good control of the geometry due to the repeatability provided by the means. automated / robotic. Consequently, the cover 3 is advantageously used as a reference in order to position the technical front face 1 thereafter. The template is thus positioned directly between the cover 3 and the technical front face 1, which predetermines the position thereof in the direction Y. Once this position obtained, the screw 1 1 is clamped in the plate 12 to secure and permanently fix the end 81 of the arm 8 to the fixing support 9.
Comme évoqué, la mise en position géométrique de l'extrémité 81 du bras 8 suivant la direction longitudinale X est assurée directement par la vis 1 1 d'indexation et de serrage dans la mesure ou la lumière recevant cette vis 1 1 est orientée suivant la direction Y et ne laisse aucun degré de liberté suivant la direction X (aux jeux de montage près). De même la mise en position géométrique de l'extrémité 81 du bras 8 suivant la direction verticale Z est assurée directement par un contact plan avec la platine 92, de chaque côté de la face avant technique 1 .  As mentioned, the geometric position of the end 81 of the arm 8 in the longitudinal direction X is ensured directly by the screw 1 1 indexing and clamping to the extent that the light receiving the screw 1 1 is oriented according to the Y direction and leaves no degree of freedom in the X direction (at mounting games near). Similarly, the geometric position of the end 81 of the arm 8 in the vertical direction Z is ensured directly by plane contact with the plate 92, on each side of the technical front face 1.
De même que le capot 3 est correctement positionné par rapport à la structure par des moyens répétables en usine lors des opérations de ferrage, les ailes 5 sont également positionnées et fixées sur des éléments de structure assemblés lors des opérations de ferrage. Ainsi la position relative de la face avant technique et de chaque aile 5 est maîtrisée. En positionnant ensuite chaque projecteur 2 par rapport à la face avant technique 1 et par rapport à une aile correspondante, on maîtrise en conséquence le positionnement relatif de chaque projecteur par rapport au capot et par rapport à l'aile associée. Ce positionnement correct implique que les jeux et affleurements entre le capot 3, les projecteurs 2 et les ailes 5 sont maîtrisés et correctement répartis notamment entre les deux côtés du véhicule. Just as the cover 3 is correctly positioned relative to the structure by means that are repeatable at the factory during the shoeing operations, the wings 5 are also positioned and fixed on assembled structural elements. during shoeing operations. Thus the relative position of the technical front and each wing 5 is controlled. By then positioning each projector 2 relative to the technical front 1 and relative to a corresponding wing, it controls accordingly the relative positioning of each projector relative to the hood and relative to the associated wing. This correct positioning implies that the clearances and outcrops between the hood 3, the headlamps 2 and the wings 5 are controlled and correctly distributed in particular between the two sides of the vehicle.
La mise en position géométrique des projecteurs avant 2 par rapport à la face avant technique 1 est réalisée comme suit :  The geometric position of the front headlights 2 with respect to the technical front face 1 is achieved as follows:
Chaque projecteur avant 2 est fixé au support de fixation 9 par des moyens de liaison conformés pour assurer une indexation directe suivant les directions X et Z.  Each front projector 2 is fixed to the fixing support 9 by connecting means shaped to provide direct indexing along the X and Z directions.
Le projecteur 2 est mis en position géométrique suivant la direction X par un appui direct sur une face avant de l'ailette verticale 93. Le projecteur 2 est mis en position géométrique suivant la direction Z par un appui direct sur une face supérieure de la platine 92.  The projector 2 is placed in the geometric position in the X direction by a direct support on a front face of the vertical fin 93. The projector 2 is placed in the geometric position in the Z direction by a direct support on an upper face of the plate 92.
Le projecteur 2 est également fixé à l'aile 5 par un pontet 14 (figure 2) conformé pour assurer une indexation directe suivant la direction X. Le projecteur 2 coopère en appui sur une face avant de ce pontet 14.  The projector 2 is also fixed to the wing 5 by a bridge 14 (Figure 2) shaped to provide a direct indexing in the direction X. The projector 2 cooperates in support on a front face of the bridge 14.
Le projecteur est en outre fixé à la partie inférieure de la face avant technique 1 par des moyens de liaison conformés pour assurer une indexation directe suivant les directions X, Y et Z.  The projector is also attached to the lower part of the technical front face 1 by connecting means shaped to provide direct indexing along the X, Y and Z directions.
Le projecteur 2 est encore fixé dans sa partie arrière à l'un support d'articulation 4 du capot 3. La fixation est conformée pour assurer une indexation suivant les directions Y et Z.  The projector 2 is still fixed in its rear part to a hinge support 4 of the cover 3. The attachment is shaped to provide indexing along the directions Y and Z.
La fixation du projecteur 2 sur chacun de ces éléments est assurée par vissage. On note que la fixation de la partie arrière du projecteur 2 sur le support d'articulation 4 n'est pas bloquée suivant la direction X de manière à satisfaire la réglementation concernant les chocs piétons (les éléments doivent s'enfoncer sans entrave suivant la direction X lorsqu'un effort dépasse un effort seuil prédéterminé). De même, pour les mêmes raisons liées aux chocs piétons, les fixations du projecteur 2 sur le support de fixation 9, sur le pontet 14 et sur la partie inférieure de la face avant technique 1 sont conformées pour se rompre suivant la direction longitudinale X lorsqu'un effort appliqué dépasse un effort seuil prédéterminé. Fixing the projector 2 on each of these elements is provided by screwing. Note that the attachment of the rear part of the projector 2 on the hinge support 4 is not blocked in the X direction so as to meet the regulations on pedestrian impacts (the elements must go unhindered in the direction X when an effort exceeds an effort predetermined threshold). Similarly, for the same reasons related to pedestrian impacts, the fasteners of the projector 2 on the support 9, on the bridge 14 and on the lower part of the technical front face 1 are shaped to break in the longitudinal direction X when an applied force exceeds a predetermined threshold force.
Comme illustré aux figures 3 à 5, les supports de fixation 9 comportent par ailleurs sur la partie verticale 91 un pion de liaison 15 s'étendant suivant la direction Y, à l'opposé du compartiment moteur. Ce pion 15 a un embout sphérique permettant d'assurer une liaison rotule avec un vérin (non représenté) équilibreur de capot interposé entre ce dernier et le support de fixation 9. As illustrated in FIGS. 3 to 5, the fastening supports 9 further comprise, on the vertical part 91, a connecting pin 15 extending in the direction Y, opposite the engine compartment. This pin 15 has a spherical end making it possible to ensure a ball joint connection with a cylinder (not shown) balancer between the latter and the fixing support 9.
Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes ou variantes de réalisation décrits précédemment et comprends tous les équivalents techniques de ces moyens. Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes or embodiments described above and includes all the technical equivalents of these means.
