Description

DOMAINE TECHNIQUE DE L'INVENTIONTECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

La présente invention concerne une commande à main de freinage pour la double commande d'un véhicule de type véhicule école, véhicule du groupe lourd, de type porteur, tracteur de semi-remorque, autocar. La commande à main de freinage est destinée pour les véhicules à l'apprentissage de la conduite.The present invention relates to a braking hand control for the dual control of a school vehicle type vehicle, heavy group vehicle, carrier type, semi-trailer tractor, coach. The braking hand control is intended for vehicles when learning to drive.

La double commande permet au formateur de reprendre l'initiative de la conduite à la place de l'élève. Par exemple en situation d'urgence ou lorsque les manoeuvres de l'élève ne sont pas correctes.The dual command allows the trainer to resume the initiative of driving in the place of the student. For example in an emergency situation or when the student's maneuvers are not correct.

ETAT DE LA TECHNIQUESTATE OF THE ART

La surface au sol dans la cabine a diminué pour les véhicules poids lourds de type tracteur et porteur pour diverses raisons :

  • les tableaux de bord ont augmenté dans leur épaisseur,
  • pour certaines marques, un caisson de rangement est ajouté,
  • la couchette de certaines marques a augmenté en largeur diminuant d'autant l'espace restant pour le formateur.
The floor area in the cab has decreased for tractor-type and carrier-type trucks for various reasons:
  • dashboards have increased in their thickness,
  • for some brands, a storage box is added,
  • the berth of some brands has increased in width decreasing the remaining space for the trainer.

Un des inconvénients de la double commande est la place restante dédiée au formateur de la conduite et aux élèves. Dans certains cas, il y a quatre personnes simultanément dans la cabine, soit cinq personnes avec le formateur.One of the disadvantages of dual control is the remaining space dedicated to the trainer of the conduct and the students. In some cases, there are four people simultaneously in the cabin, five people with the trainer.

Un autre inconvénient est le positionnement en sécurité des doubles commandes car le socle est positionné face au formateur de la conduite.Another disadvantage is the positioning in safety of the double controls because the base is positioned facing the trainer of the pipe.

Dans la plupart des cas :

  • l'avant de la chaussure touche l'habitacle du tableau de bord dans sa partie basse,
  • le talon touche le système de réglage du siège du formateur,
  • la hauteur de la pédale empêche de poser le bas du pied de façon fixe pour freiner rapidement et efficacement.
In most of the cases :
  • the front of the shoe touches the cabin of the dashboard in its lower part,
  • the heel touches the trainer seat adjustment system,
  • the height of the pedal prevents the foot from settling in a fixed way to brake quickly and efficiently.

Le fait de poser son pied correctement peut être dangereux. En effet, au moment précis où le formateur est appelé à freiner en urgence, le formateur doit trouver la position de son pied et à ce moment son regard n'est plus porté vers l'avant en direction de la route, mais vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle du véhicule.Just putting your foot on it can be dangerous. Indeed, at the precise moment when the trainer is called upon to brake in an emergency, the trainer must find the position of his foot and at that moment his gaze is no longer worn. forward towards the road, but towards the interior of the passenger compartment of the vehicle.

Ces quelques précieuses secondes se révèlent fatidiques en cas de freinage d'urgence, elles peuvent tout simplement éviter une collision ou toute autre situation d'accident ou de danger.These few precious seconds prove to be fateful in the event of emergency braking, they can simply avoid a collision or any other situation of accident or danger.

Certains formateurs agissent sur la pédale de frein avec le talon de leurs chaussures tout en tournant la jambe.Some trainers act on the brake pedal with the heel of their shoes while turning the leg.

Inévitablement, là encore, le formateur quitte la route des yeux et la position du pied sur la pédale est loin d'être satisfaisante.Inevitably, again, the trainer leaves the road eyes and the position of the foot on the pedal is far from satisfactory.

Un exemple de réalisation de l'art antérieur d'un pédalier pour la double commande est représenté sur la figure 1.An exemplary embodiment of the prior art of a crankset for dual control is shown on the figure 1 .

La figure 1 représente la chaussure positionnée avant le freinage. Les flèches montrent l'espace réduit entre le siège du formateur et l'habitacle ainsi que la hauteur entre le talon et le sol.The figure 1 represents the shoe positioned before braking. The arrows show the reduced space between the trainer's seat and the cockpit and the height between the heel and the ground.

Un autre exemple est décrit dans le document US2411500 qui décrit une commande à main de freinage pour un véhicule où la commande comportant un insert de freinage étant adaptée pour se loger dans un logement du pédalier de freinage à côté de la pédale de freinage. Toutefois, la place restante dédiée au formateur de la conduite est toujours réduite.Another example is described in the document US2411500 which describes a braking hand control for a vehicle where the control comprising a braking insert being adapted to fit in a brake pedal housing next to the brake pedal. However, the remaining space dedicated to the trainer of driving is always reduced.

Une autre vis de l'élément de blocage 26 est représentée et se situe dans le manchon taraudé solidaire du deuxième montant 22. Les manchons débouchent au niveau du logement de la pédale de freinage 24 ou du logement de la pédale d'embrayage 25. Lorsque l'extrémité de la vis touche le logement de la pédale de freinage 24 ou le logement de la pédale d'embrayage 25 le premier montant 21 et le deuxième montant sont solidaires du pédalier 20.The screw of the locking element 26 is shown and is located in the threaded sleeve secured to the first upright 21. Another screw of the locking element 26 is shown and is located in the threaded sleeve integral with the second upright 22. The sleeves open at the housing of the brake pedal 24 or of the clutch pedal housing 25. When the end of the screw touches the housing of the brake pedal 24 or the housing of the clutch pedal 25 the first amount 21 and the second amount are integral with the pedal 20.

La figure 4 représente un schéma en perspective d'une étape du montage de la commande à main de freinage dans le pédalier 20. Cette figure reprend les éléments décrits ci-avant.The figure 4 is a perspective diagram of a step of mounting the brake hand control in the pedal 20. This figure incorporates the elements described above.

Sur cet exemple, le pédalier 20 pour la double commande d'un véhicule école comprend une pédale pour l'accélérateur. La pédale d'embrayage et la pédale de frein ont été enlevées.In this example, the pedal 20 for the dual control of a school vehicle includes a pedal for the accelerator. The clutch pedal and the brake pedal have been removed.

Les extrémités inférieures du premier montant 21 et du deuxième montant 22 viennent directement s'insérer dans le logement initialement prévu pour la pédale de frein et d'embrayage :

  • l'insert d'embrayage 221 est positionné au dessus du logement de la pédale d'embrayage 25.
  • l'insert de freinage est caché par l'élément de blocage 26 du deuxième montant 22.
The lower ends of the first upright 21 and the second upright 22 come directly into the housing initially provided for the brake and clutch pedal:
  • the clutch insert 221 is positioned above the housing of the clutch pedal 25.
  • the braking insert is hidden by the blocking element 26 of the second post 22.

Cette figure montre également la butée souple 28 qui permet d'amortir le retour de la commande à main.This figure also shows the flexible stop 28 which damps the return of the hand control.

La figure 5 représente un schéma en perspective des éléments d'un mode de réalisation juste avant d'utiliser la commande à main. Cette figure reprend les éléments décrits ci-avant.The figure 5 represents a perspective diagram of the elements of an embodiment just before using the hand control. This figure shows the elements described above.

Dans cette position, le premier montant 21 et le deuxième montant 22 sont solidaires du pédalier 20. La butée souple 28 touche le renfort central 23.In this position, the first upright 21 and the second upright 22 are integral with the pedal 20. The flexible stop 28 touches the central reinforcement 23.

La figure 6 représente un schéma en perspective des éléments d'un mode de réalisation pendant le freinage. Cette figure reprend les éléments décrits ci-avant.The figure 6 represents a perspective diagram of the elements of an embodiment during braking. This figure shows the elements described above.

Dans cette position, le premier montant 21 et le deuxième montant 22 sont toujours solidaires du pédalier 20. La commande à main est inclinée par rapport à la verticale et le pédalier 20 est actionné.In this position, the first upright 21 and the second upright 22 are always integral with the pedal 20. The hand control is inclined relative to the vertical and the pedal 20 is actuated.

L'action sur la mécanique du véhicule est alors identique à celle provoquée par un freinage transmis via une pédale de frein au pied qui tire également sur le câble du frein.The action on the mechanics of the vehicle is then identical to that caused by braking transmitted via a foot brake pedal which also pulls on the brake cable.

Un ressort fixé par un boulon et un écrou à la patte d'origine du pédalier et par un boulon et un écrou au socle de la commande à main permet de ramener la commande manuelle dans son axe vertical dès la fin de l'action de freinage.A spring fixed by a bolt and a nut to the original leg of the pedal and a bolt and a nut to the base of the hand control can bring the manual control in its vertical axis at the end of the braking action .

La butée souple 28 ne touche plus le renfort central 23.The flexible stop 28 no longer touches the central reinforcement 23.

Dans un autre exemple, la butée souple 28 est en matériau élastique, comme par exemple en caoutchouc.In another example, the flexible stop 28 is of elastic material, such as rubber.

Dans une variante non représentée, la butée souple est solidaire du socle et touche un élément du pédalier pour amortir le retour de la commande à main.In a variant not shown, the flexible stop is secured to the base and touches a pedal element to dampen the return of the hand control.
