Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical field of mechanical spacers, used in particular for straightening the chassis of a vehicle.
  • the invention relates more particularly to a hydraulic retractor for straightening a spar of the chassis of a vehicle.
  • the document CN102275154 discloses a hydraulic spacer comprising spacer arms actuated by a hydraulic piston. This type of spacing can be used in bodywork, in particular for straightening the frame rails of a vehicle curved due to an accident. Once the spars are straightened using a straightening square, a crease is usually observed at the initial curvature. It is then necessary to introduce a spacer tool inside the spar which is generally a beam with a hollow section. It has however been observed that the device disclosed in the document of the prior art was difficult to use and did not offer optimal performance to remove the wrinkles observed in the side members.
  • An object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art described above.
  • the present application therefore aims to provide a retractor easy to use and effective in bodywork straightening work, in particular to remove the wrinkles observed in the frame members of a vehicle.
  • the invention relates to a mechanical spacer along a spacing axis, characterized in that it comprises a support and two spacer plates, each spacer plate comprising at least one bevel, and in that it also comprises a central rod capable of sliding in said support between the two spacer plates, said central rod comprising a plurality of bevels having a profile complementary to the bevels of said spacer plates, the bevels of said central rod being in contact with the bevels of said spacer plates, said spacer also comprising biasing means able to exert a restoring force on the spacer plates, means for actuating the central rod in translation and means for immobilizing the spacer plates in planes perpendicular to said spacer axis.
  • the sliding of the central rod between the two spacer plates makes it possible to obtain a spacing of the said plates due to the relative sliding of the bevels of the central rod and those of the spacer plates.
  • the contact area between the bevels of the central rod and those of the spacer plates is maximum, while it is reduced during the sliding of the central rod, which causes the spacing of the plates.
  • the complementary profile of the bevels of the central rod and those of the spacer plates ensures the parallel spacing of the plates spacing, the slopes of the bevels of the central rod and the spacer plates being canceled once they placed in contact with each other.
  • the parallel spacing obtained in this way has been found to be particularly effective for body straightening work such as wrinkle removal on spars.
  • the beveled portion of the plates must advantageously occupy a large part of the surface of said plates, since during the separation, only the Beveled parts of the plates remain in contact with the bevels of the central rod which transmits the spreading force.
  • the maximum slope of the bevel machined on each spacer plate is further limited by the thickness of the spacer plates.
  • the spacer plates of the spacer according to the invention comprise at least two bevels.
  • the spacer plates of the spacer according to the invention comprise at least two bevels.
  • the spacer plates of the spacer according to the invention comprise at least two bevels.
  • the slope thereof because their length is reduced compared to the length of a single bevel.
  • a sliding of the central rod over a shorter length is necessary.
  • a shorter length of sliding of the central rod is associated with a better distribution of forces over the entire surface of the plates being spaced and consequently with increased stability and stability.
  • parallelism optimum of the spacer according to the invention it could be determined that a number of bevels equal to two offered optimal performance for the spacer according to the invention while allowing easy manufacture and a reasonable manufacturing cost for the spacer according to the invention.
  • the means for actuating the central rod in translation comprise a hydraulic cylinder system.
  • Other actuating means may also be envisaged, such as a pneumatic cylinder system or such as a thread on the central rod which is then actuated in translation by the rotation of a threaded part surrounding said central rod.
  • the Fig. 1 therefore represents an embodiment of the spacer according to the invention can be used for example for straightening the spar of a vehicle along a spacing axis 10.
  • the spacer comprises a support 1 and two spacer plates 2
  • the support 1 comprises a hollow head 7 comprising lateral openings 9, said spacer plates 2 being inserted into said lateral openings 9.
  • the support 1 also comprises a cylinder 11 in which are located the central rod and the actuating means. in translation thereof.
  • the spacer plates 2 comprise removable layers 12 attached by means of fastening means 13. In this way, the initial spacing between the spacer plates can be adjusted according to the dimensions of the spar to be straightened.
  • the spacer further comprises a front opening 9 allowing the passage of the central rod.
  • the spacer further comprises protrusions 8 around said lateral openings 9 which act as immobilizing means for the spacer plates 2 in planes perpendicular to said spacing axis 10.
  • the spacer plates must in fact only be can move in the direction of the axis of separation 10 and not be mobile in the other directions of space.
  • the Fig. 2 represents a first sectional view of the spacer according to the invention. In this view, are visible the bevels 5 of the central rod 4, as well as the passages 6 machined in the support 1 which are traversed by springs connecting the two spacer plates 2. These springs thus play the role of means of reminder about spacer plates so that they remain attached to the support.
  • the Fig. 3 represents another sectional view of the spacer according to the invention.
  • the spacer is in the initial position, that is to say before separation.
  • the bevels 5 of the central rod 4 and the bevels 3 of the spacer plates 2 are indeed in full contact with each other.
  • the spacing of the plates 2 will occur during the sliding of the central rod 4 to the front opening 9 in the support 1.
  • the plates 2 will deviate while the contact area between the bevels 5 of the central rod 4 and the bevels 3 of the spacer plates 2 will decrease.
  • the passages 6 for receiving the springs interconnecting the spacer plates are also clearly visible in order to exert a restoring force on the latter.
