Description

La présente invention concerne un moyen de liaison interposé entre le châssis d'un véhicule automobile et une portière notamment coulissante de ce véhicule.The present invention relates to a connection means interposed between the chassis of a motor vehicle and a particularly sliding door of this vehicle.

Ce moyen de liaison est provisoire; il est utilisé principalement lors de la peinture du véhicule; il permet le maintien de la portière dans son état de fermeture et l'éloignement de cette portière par rapport au châssis du véhicule.This means of connection is provisional; it is mainly used when painting the vehicle; it allows the maintenance of the door in its closed state and the distance of this door relative to the vehicle chassis.

ARRIERE PLAN DE L'INVENTIONBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Ce type d'organes est bien connu dans le domaine de la carrosserie automobile. Il est appelé fausse charnière ou fausse paumelle. Il permet de peindre en même temps la carrosserie de la voiture et la portière qui lui est fixée temporairement avant qu'elle ne soit montée de manière définitive à coulissement ou à pivotement. Or le montage définitif ne peut être réalisé qu'après la peinture; un montage définitif préalable à la peinture fait de la porte (notamment coulissante) un obstacle à la bonne exécution de la peinture. Pour les portes articulées, les fausses charnières servent surtout dans les phases de mise au point et réglages de la ligne de montage et de peinture.This type of body is well known in the field of automobile bodywork. It is called false hinge or false hinge. It makes it possible to paint the body of the car and the door that is temporarily fixed to it before it is permanently mounted for sliding or pivoting. But the final assembly can only be realized after painting; a definitive assembly prior to painting makes the door (especially sliding) an obstacle to the proper performance of the painting. For hinged doors, false hinges are used mainly in the development and adjustment phases of the assembly and painting line.

Ces fausses charnières sont disposées soit entre le châssis et la portière, soit entre les deux cadres d'un écarteur, l'un de ceux-ci étant monté dans l'ouverture de la portière et l'autre formant le support de la portière et des leviers disposés entre eux pour leur mouvement relatif.These false hinges are arranged either between the frame and the door, or between the two frames of a spacer, one of these being mounted in the opening of the door and the other forming the support of the door and levers arranged between them for their relative movement.

De manière avantageuse, on met en oeuvre entre les éléments articulés de la charnière (les paumelles) deux rotules de sorte qu'aucun détritus ou produit ne pénètre dans la sphère et qu'aucun blocage de l'articulation n'est à craindre. Les opérations de nettoyage sont donc pratiquement inutiles.Advantageously, is implemented between the hinged elements of the hinge (the hinges) two ball joints so that no detritus or product enters the sphere and no blocking of the joint is to be feared. Cleaning operations are virtually useless.

L'emploi de ces articulations sphériques présente cependant un inconvénient dû aux degrés de liberté de l'articulation: à la mise en place, la paumelle qui n'est pas solidaire du châssis a tendance à pendre de sorte qu'un opérateur est nécessaire pour présenter correctement cette paumelle en la redressant pour l'orienter correctement en face de la portière qui est généralement amenée par un outil robotisé, à laquelle elle doit être fixée.The use of these spherical joints, however, has a disadvantage due to the degrees of freedom of the joint: at installation, the hinge which is not secured to the frame tends to hang so that an operator is necessary to present correctly this hinge by straightening it to orient it correctly in front of the door which is generally brought by a robotic tool, to which it must be fixed.

Il y aurait un intérêt à ce que dans cette phase de montage, l'articulation sphérique ait moins de degrés de liberté ce qui permettrait d'indexer la paumelle dans une position propre à sa fixation simple voire robotisée à la porte.There would be an interest in that in this phase of assembly, the spherical joint has less degrees of freedom which would index the hinge in a position proper to its simple attachment or robotic door.

Un organe d'articulation comprenant les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1 est connu du document US 2 162 650 A .An articulation member comprising the features of the preamble of claim 1 is known from the document US 2,162,650 A .

OBJET DE L'INVENTIONOBJECT OF THE INVENTION

C'est ainsi que l'invention a pour objet un organe d'articulation comportant une première pièce ou paumelle pourvue d'une sphère d'articulation et d'une platine de fixation écartée de cette sphère et une deuxième pièce pourvue d'un boîtier sphérique d'articulation apte à coiffer la sphère et d'une platine de fixation écartée de ce boîtier, caractérisé en ce que chaque pièce comporte un appui qui peut contacter un appui de l'autre à partir d'un angle déterminé d'ouverture entre les deux pièces, de sorte que lorsque ces appuis sont en contact, les degrés de liberté de l'articulation sont limités.Thus, the subject of the invention is a hinge member comprising a first piece or hinge provided with a hinge sphere and a fixing plate spaced from this sphere and a second piece provided with a housing. spherical articulation adapted to cap the sphere and a fixing plate spaced from this housing, characterized in that each piece has a support which can contact a support of the other from a determined angle of opening between the two pieces, so that when these supports are in contact, the degrees of freedom of the joint are limited.

L'articulation possède tous ses degrés de liberté sur une première partie de la plage d'ouverture alors que les degrés de liberté sont limités sur une deuxième partie de la plage d'ouverture s'étendant à partir de l'angle d'ouverture prédéterminé. Ainsi, on comprend que si l'un des appuis est plan et que ce plan est horizontal, par exemple, lorsque la deuxième pièce (paumelle) est fixée à une carrosserie de véhicule, l'angle d'ouverture déterminé susdit correspondant à l'ouverture de la portière par rapport à la caisse du véhicule (qui peut être compris entre 80 et 150 degrés) nécessaire à son montage sur la fausse charnière, la première pièce (paumelle) peut ne tourner qu'autour d'un axe vertical. Le plan en question peut être légèrement incliné, dans le cas par exemple où l'axe d'articulation de la portière au châssis, qui passe par les centres des deux charnières sphériques, n'est pas vertical pour en particulier, autoriser un rappel par gravité de la portière vers sa position de fermeture.The hinge has all of its degrees of freedom over a first portion of the opening range while the degrees of freedom are limited over a second portion of the opening range extending from the predetermined opening angle . Thus, it is understood that if one of the supports is flat and that this plane is horizontal, for example, when the second part (hinge) is attached to a vehicle body, the above determined opening angle corresponding to the opening of the door with respect to the vehicle body (which may be between 80 and 150 degrees) necessary for its mounting on the false hinge, the first part (hinge) can rotate only around a vertical axis. The plane in question may be slightly inclined, in the case for example where the axis of articulation of the door to the frame, which passes through the centers of the two spherical hinges, is not vertical for particular, allow a recall by gravity of the door to its closed position.

Pour peu que soit prévue une butée de fin de rotation (fin d'ouverture ou d'écartement de la portière), la première pièce est alors parfaitement indexée en position dans un repère qui sera celui de l'approche robotisée de la portière.As soon as a stop is provided end of rotation (end of opening or spacing of the door), the first part is then perfectly indexed in position in a reference that will be that of the robotic approach of the door.

On parviendra alors à un accostage très précis de la portière et de l'articulation qui ne requerra de l'opérateur qu'une opération de fixation de la seconde pièce à la portière (au lieu d'avoir en plus à procéder au soutien manuel de la seconde pièce pour parfaire l'approche de la portière).We will then achieve a very precise docking of the door and the joint which will require the operator only a fixing operation of the second room to the door (instead of having to additionally to carry out the manual support of the second room to complete the approach of the door).

L'obtention d'une indexation précise peut également résulter de la coopération d'appuis formés d'une surface cylindrique portée par l'une des pièces et d'un V porté par l'autre.Obtaining precise indexing can also result from the cooperation of supports formed of a cylindrical surface carried by one of the parts and a V carried by the other.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront de la description donnée ci-après d'un exemple de réalisation de l'invention.Other features and advantages of the invention will emerge from the description given below of an exemplary embodiment of the invention.

BREVE DESCRIPTION DES DESSINSBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Il sera fait référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 représente un organe d'articulation selon l'invention dans un état de fermeture,
  • la figure 2 est une vue de cet organe alors qu'il est ouvert avec une restriction des degrés de liberté de l'articulation sphérique
Reference will be made to the accompanying drawings in which:
  • the figure 1 represents a hinge member according to the invention in a closed state,
  • the figure 2 is a view of this organ while it is open with a restriction of the degrees of freedom of the spherical joint

DESCRIPTION DETAILLEE DE L'INVENTIONDETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

A ces figures, on a représenté l'organe selon l'invention avec une première pièce ou paumelle P1 qui comporte un bras 1 portant à une de ses extrémités une plaque 2 sur laquelle est implantée une sphère tournée vers le haut, non visible sur la figure et à son autre extrémité une platine de fixation 3 au moyen de laquelle la paumelle est rendue solidaire de la caisse au voisinage de l'ouverture qui doit recevoir la portière.In these figures, there is shown the member according to the invention with a first part or hinge P1 which comprises an arm 1 carrying at one of its ends a plate 2 on which is implanted a sphere facing upwards, not visible on the figure and at its other end a fixing plate 3 by means of which the hinge is secured to the body in the vicinity of the opening which must receive the door.

Une seconde pièce ou paumelle P2 comporte également un bras 4 dont une extrémité est pourvue d'un boîtier 5 qui coiffe la sphère de l'autre paumelle P1 et par conséquent la cache. L'autre extrémité de ce bras est également équipée d'une platine 6 pour sa fixation à une portière.A second piece or hinge P2 also has an arm 4 whose one end is provided with a housing 5 which caps the sphere of the other hinge P1 and therefore the cover. The other end of this arm is also equipped with a plate 6 for attachment to a door.

On remarquera la présence d'un manchon cylindrique 7 entourant l'extrémité du bras 4 voisine du boîtier 5. Ce manchon est solidaire du boîtier car il en est le moyen de montage à l'extrémité du bras 4. Ce manchon peut être pourvu d'un méplat 7a tourné vers le bas sur la figure 1. Il peut également ne pas en comporter comme sur la figure 2.Note the presence of a cylindrical sleeve 7 surrounding the end of the adjacent arm 4 of the housing 5. This sleeve is integral with the housing because it is the mounting means at the end of the arm 4. This sleeve can be provided with 'a flat 7a turned down on the figure 1 . It may also not behave as on the figure 2 .

La plaque 2 comporte une paroi verticale 8 qui définit une surface supérieure 8a sur laquelle le manchon 7 glisser lorsque que l'on ouvre l'articulation depuis la position représentée la figure 1 jusqu'à celle représentée à la figure 2. A la fin de cette ouverture, lorsque le manchon 7 glisse sur la surface 8a, les paumelles tournent autour de l'axe X perpendiculaire au plan P qui contient cette surface 8a. Quand la platine 3 est fixée à la carrosserie l'axe X peut être sensiblement vertical et la platine 6 de l'autre paumelle est correctement soutenue contre l'effet de la gravité qui tendrait à ce qu'elle pende. Elle sera orientée vis-à-vis de la portière sur laquelle elle doit être fixée lorsque le manchon 7 sera en appui contre une surface sensiblement verticale 8b de la paroi 8. Ainsi la platine est indexée vis-à-vis de la portière qui doit y être fixée sans le secours de l'opérateur.The plate 2 comprises a vertical wall 8 which defines an upper surface 8a on which the sleeve 7 slides when the hinge is opened from the position shown in FIG. figure 1 up to the one shown in figure 2 . At the end of this opening, when the sleeve 7 slides on the surface 8a, the hinges rotate around the X axis perpendicular to the plane P which contains this surface 8a. When the plate 3 is fixed to the body, the X axis can be substantially vertical and the plate 6 of the other hinge is properly supported against the effect of gravity that would tend to hang. It will be oriented vis-à-vis the door on which it must be fixed when the sleeve 7 will bear against a substantially vertical surface 8b of the wall 8. Thus the plate is indexed vis-à-vis the door that must to be fixed without the assistance of the operator.

Le méplat 7a du manchon en appui sur la surface 8a constitue également une indexation de la paumelle autour de l'axe du manchon 7 si bien que la position relative des deux paumelles est parfaitement déterminée dans le repère de la carrosserie donc de la portière portée par un automate. Ce méplat n'est pas toujours nécessaire car il existe généralement un frottement entre sphère et boîtier qui s'oppose à une rotation spontanée des deux paumelles.The flat portion 7a of the sleeve resting on the surface 8a also constitutes an indexing of the hinge around the axis of the sleeve 7 so that the relative position of the two hinges is perfectly determined in the reference of the bodywork and therefore of the door carried by an automat. This flat is not always necessary because there is usually a friction between sphere and housing that opposes a spontaneous rotation of the two hinges.

Si dans certaines applications, le plan P n'est pas horizontal, le manchon 7 peut être retenu contre sa tendance à glisser et échapper à la surface de support 8a par une butée temporaire non représentée, en opposition de la surface 8b pour caler le manchon entre cette surface 8b et la butée temporaire rapportée d'une manière amovible appropriée à la paroi 8.If in some applications, the plane P is not horizontal, the sleeve 7 can be retained against its tendency to slip and escape the support surface 8a by a temporary stop not shown, in opposition to the surface 8b to wedge the sleeve between this surface 8b and the temporary abutment removably attached to the wall 8.

Dans une autre réalisation, les appuis sont différents d'une surface plane et d'un manchon avec ou sans méplat. Il peut par exemple s'agir d'une surface cylindrique (la surface extérieure du manchon 7) et un V de positionnement de ce manchon ménagé au dessus de la paroi 8 de la plaque 2.In another embodiment, the supports are different from a flat surface and a sleeve with or without flat. It may for example be a cylindrical surface (the outer surface of the sleeve 7) and a positioning V of this sleeve formed above the wall 8 of the plate 2.

Les platines 3 et 6 peuvent comporter des reliefs 9 sur leur face de fixation de manière à diminuer les surfaces masquées pour l'application de la peinture.The plates 3 and 6 may have reliefs 9 on their attachment face so as to reduce the masked surfaces for the application of the paint.

On comprend que l'organe d'articulation selon l'invention permet :

  • la fermeture de la portière, l'organe d'articulation présentant tous ses degrés de liberté dans une première partie du débattement de la portière au voisinage du châssis ;
  • l'ouverture de la portière, l'organe d'articulation ayant ses degrés de liberté limités dans une deuxième partie du débattement de la portière au voisinage de la position de pleine ouverture.
It is understood that the articulation member according to the invention allows:
  • the closing of the door, the articulation member having all its degrees of freedom in a first portion of the movement of the door in the vicinity of the frame;
  • the opening of the door, the hinge member having its degrees of freedom limited in a second part of the deflection of the door in the vicinity of the fully open position.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits mais englobe toute variante entrant dans le cadre défini par les revendications.Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes embodiment described but encompasses any variant within the scope defined by the claims.
