Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of handle devices for opening a vehicle, especially a motor vehicle.
  • Some motor vehicles have their opening or some of their opening equipped with handles of the "flush” type.
  • a "flush” type handle device is characterized in that the movable handle, in particular pivoting and / or translation, is embedded in the opening flush with the neighboring bodywork and can be deployed out of said extension in view of its grasping and manipulation.
  • US 8,701,353 B2 discloses a "flush” type handle device for motor vehicle doors. This device comprises a motorization of the handle, namely that the handle is moved from a position where it has returned to an extended or extended position. The reverse movement is provided by a spring or by the engine in question.
  • This device may also comprise deicing means such as a resistive element disposed in the handle in question.
  • de-icing means can also include a control of the motorization of moving the handle outwards at regular intervals so as to break the formation of ice and thus allow its movement in winter conditions.
  • This teaching also provides other means such as an ultrasound transducer or the injection of a deicing fluid.
  • the published patent document WO 2014/049026 A1 also discloses a "flush" type handle device.
  • the device is also provided with a motor to move the handle from a retracted position to an extended position.
  • the motor is configured to move the handle from the extended position to the retracted position in response to the detection of a force exerted on the handle and directed to the retracted position.
  • the motorization is dimensioned to move the handle, particularly from the retracted position to the output position in the presence of ice, the latter being then broken by the displacement in question.
  • the invention aims to overcome the problem of blocking by the formation of ice a handle of the type "flush" simply and economically.
  • the invention relates to a vehicle opening handle device, comprising: a support intended to be mounted on the opening leaf and forming a cavity with an opening; a handle mounted movably on the support, with a retracted position where said handle extends substantially in the opening and an extended position where said handle extends outside the cavity; remarkable in that the movable mounting of the handle is configured to allow at least a portion of said handle to enter the cavity under the effect of a pressure exerted on said handle from the outside towards said cavity, in order to then move from the retracted position to the exit position.
  • the retracted position corresponds to a so-called "flush" position.
  • the mobile assembly is a pivotal mounting.
  • the handle extends in a main direction, the pivoting mounting being on an end portion of said handle, the opposite end of said handle corresponding to the portion able to enter the cavity .
  • the movable assembly is configured to move the handle towards the outside of the cavity following the retraction movement of said handle or at least a portion of said handle into the cavity.
  • the movement of the handle to the outside is provided by an elastic element, such as a spring.
  • the retraction movement of the handle or at least a portion of said handle in the cavity is more than 3mm, preferably 5mm.
  • the cavity is delimited by walls adjacent to the opening, said walls comprising flanges extending along and behind the handle in the retracted position, so as to form retaining surfaces. for ice formed between edges of said handle and said walls, said retainer occurring during the retraction movement of the handle or at least a portion of said handle into the cavity.
  • the handle has, at its edges, a rounded front surface and a generally flat rear surface.
  • the support 6 comprises one or more discharge orifices at one or more low points of the cavity, said orifice or orifices being dimensioned and configured to evacuate the pieces of ice that would penetrate the cavity.
  • the invention also relates to an opening of a motor vehicle comprising a handle device for opening said opening, remarkable in that the handle device is in accordance with the invention, said opening being preferably a side door.
  • the invention also relates to a motor vehicle comprising at least one opening, remarkable in that the opening is in accordance with the invention.
  • the measures of the invention are interesting in particular that they make it possible to overcome the problem of blocking by ice formation between the handle and its support, and this with simple means compatible with a motorized or purely mechanical control of the handle. Indeed, the measures of the invention avoid having to oversize an electric actuator, as in particular in the state of the art. They also make it possible to provide a handle of the "flush" type whose control between the return and exit positions can only be mechanical, that is to say non-motorized. The movement of the handle from the retracted position to the extended position is effected by exerting pressure on the handle so that it returns at least partially into the cavity so as to release retaining means against a elastic force tending to pull out the handle.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a portion of a side door of a vehicle, comprising a handle device of the "flush" type according to the invention
  • Figure 2 is a sectional view 11 / 11-11 / 111 of the handle device of Figure 1 in a retracted position with the ice formed around the handle;
  • Fig. 3 is a sectional view 11 / 11-11 / 11 of the handle device of Fig. 1 in a broken glass position.
  • FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a vehicle side door portion 2 comprising a handle device 4 according to the invention.
  • the handle device 4 is in this case a handle device of the "flush" type, that is to say where the support 6 on which the handle 8 is movably mounted forms a cavity adapted to receive the handle in the retracted position. of said handle. In this position, the outer surface of the handle 8 is flush with the outer surface of the outer wall of the door 2. In the extended or extended position, the handle 8 at least partially leaves the cavity of the support 6 so that it can be grasped by a user of the vehicle to open the door. To do this, the user can move the handle 8 further outwardly to control the lock of the door to open.
  • the handle 8 is in the extended position.
  • the movable mounting of the handle 8 by relative to the support 6 is pivotally along an axis (not visible) generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the handle 8, this axis being close to an end, in this case the left end, of the handle 8.
  • axis not visible
  • other mobile assemblies such as in particular pivoting along an axis located at another position or in translation in a direction substantially perpendicular to the mean plane of the door.
  • the movable mounting of the handle relative to the support is in itself known to those skilled in the art.
  • Figures 2 and 3 illustrate the features of the handle device 4 of Figure 1, according to the invention. These two figures are views according to the section II / III-III / III of FIG.
  • the invention provides that the handle 8 can be moved in the cavity 10 by the exercise of pressure on said handle.
  • This pressure is advantageously exercised manually. Its intensity can thus be adapted to the needs, namely to the resistant force that generates the ice 14.
  • the objective of this movement is to break the ice 14 is thus to then allow the handle 8 to be able to leave the cavity 10
  • Figure 3 illustrates the device where the handle 8 is in the recessed position in the cavity 10, as well as the breaking phenomenon of the glass 14.
  • the edges 8 1 of the handle 8 can form edges. More particularly, the handle 8 may comprise, at its edges 8 1 , a rounded front surface and a generally flat rear surface, the intersection of these surfaces forming the edges in question.
  • the side walls 6 1 of the support, vis-à-vis the edges 8 1 of the handle 8 comprise flanges 6 2 .
  • These extend along and back of the handle when it is in the retracted position flush with the outer wall of the door ( Figure 2). They can also be behind the handle when it is in the retracted position in the cavity ( Figure 3).
  • the purpose of these flanges 6 2 is to form stop surfaces for the ice 14 and thus promote its detachment of the handle 8 and the walls 6 1 .
  • the flanges 6 2 may be behind the handle when the handle is in the recessed maximum position in the cavity so as to avoid any direct interference between said flanges and the corresponding edges 8 1 of the handle 8. Alternatively, they can be arranged so that the corresponding edges 8 1 of the handle 8 pass in front of them during the depression of the handle in the cavity 10. In both cases, the profile of the flanges may be such that the flanges form surfaces inclined relative to the mean plane of the outer wall of the door, in the vicinity of the device, these inclined surfaces being directed towards the handle 8. The inclination of these surfaces can guide the handle to a central position and / or guide the ice towards the cavity 10 during the depression of said handle.
  • the actuator of the handle of the device which has just been described may be of the motorized type and also of the mechanical type.
  • the depression of the handle which has just been described is advantageously carried out only in the event of the presence of ice in order to break it and to unlock the handle.
  • a sensor may be provided on or near the handle to detect the presence of the hand of a user and, following this detection, to control the actuator to move the handle to the outside.
  • the actuator may provide mechanical means of the spring type to allow its depression by the exercise of manual pressure.
  • the actuator of the handle can be configured so that the handle comprises two stable positions, namely the aforementioned in and out positions, the handle can be brought from the retracted position to the extended position by a recess of it to a predetermined point, this depression being against a resilient force resistant. Once this point is reached, retaining means preventing the exit of the handle beyond the retracted position are then deactivated and, once the pressure is released, the handle can then move under these elastic forces to the extended position .
  • the support 6 may comprise one or more discharge orifices 6 3 at one or more low points of the cavity 10, this or these orifices being sized and configured to evacuate the pieces of ice that would penetrate the cavity 10.
