Description

Un véhicule, en particulier un véhicule automobile, requiert une accessibilité optimale au sein de l'habitacle. C'est particulièrement le cas pour un véhicule automobile mutualisé c'est-à-dire utilisé par de nombreux utilisateurs à l'instar d'un moyen de transport en commun. Ainsi, pour ce type de véhicule, on souhaite disposer d'une grande ouverture dans la caisse pour faciliter l'accès des passagers à l'habitacle. Une telle ouverture est alors obstruée par un ouvrant de grande taille.A vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, requires optimum accessibility within the passenger compartment.

La direction selon laquelle un véhicule automobile se déplace en ligne droite est définie comme étant la direction longitudinale X. Par convention, la direction perpendiculaire à la direction longitudinale, située dans un plan parallèle au sol, est nommée direction transversale Y. La troisième direction, perpendiculaire aux deux autres, est nommée direction verticale Z. Ainsi, on utilise un repère direct XYZ dans lequel X est la direction longitudinale dans le sens avant-arrière du véhicule, donc dirigée vers l'arrière, Y est la direction transversale dirigée vers la droite et Z est la direction verticale dirigée vers le haut. Le sens avant correspond au sens dans lequel le véhicule automobile se déplace habituellement dans la direction longitudinale et est opposé au sens arrière.The direction in which a motor vehicle is traveling in a straight line is defined as being the longitudinal direction X. By convention, the direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, located in a plane parallel to the ground, is called the transverse direction Y. The third direction, perpendicular to the other two, is called the vertical direction Z. Thus, we use a direct reference XYZ in which X is the longitudinal direction in the front-rear direction of the vehicle, therefore directed towards the rear, Y is the transverse direction directed towards the straight and Z is the vertical direction directed upwards. The forward direction corresponds to the direction in which the motor vehicle usually moves in the longitudinal direction and is opposite to the rear direction.

Un véhicule, par exemple un véhicule automobile 1, selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, est illustré schématiquement sur la figure 1. Le véhicule comprend un agencement 10. L'agencement 10 comprend une caisse 2 et un ouvrant 3. Le véhicule comprend encore un habitacle 9 accessible via l'ouvrant 3.A vehicle, for example a motor vehicle 1, according to one embodiment of the invention, is illustrated schematically in FIG. figure 1 . The vehicle comprises an arrangement 10. The arrangement 10 comprises a body 2 and an opening 3. The vehicle further comprises a passenger compartment 9 accessible via the opening 3.

Comme illustré sur les figures, l'ouvrant 3 est de préférence une porte latérale arrière.As illustrated in the figures, the opening 3 is preferably a rear side door.

L'agencement 10 comprend au moins une première bielle 20, ou bielle centrale, et une deuxième bielle 30, ou bielle inférieure. La première bielle 20 et la deuxième bielle 30 sont articulées, chacune, d'une part au niveau de l'ouvrant 3, et d'autre part au niveau de la caisse 2 de sorte à permettre l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'ouvrant 3 par rapport à la caisse 2.The arrangement 10 comprises at least a first link 20, or central link, and a second link 30, or lower link. The first connecting rod 20 and the second connecting rod 30 are each articulated on the one hand at the level of the opening 3, and on the other hand at the level of the body 2 so as to allow the opening and closing of the opening 3 in relation to the cash register 2.

Plus précisément, comme illustré sur la figure 2, l'ouvrant 3 comprend un premier bord 4 et un deuxième bord 5 verticaux ou sensiblement verticaux. Par exemple, en cas d'ouvrant 3 latéral s'ouvrant vers l'arrière, le premier bord 4 est disposé à l'arrière, le deuxième bord 5 étant alors disposé à l'avant.Specifically, as illustrated on figure 2 , the leaf 3 comprises a first edge 4 and a second edge 5 vertical or substantially vertical. For example, in the case of a lateral opening 3 opening towards the rear, the first edge 4 is disposed at the rear, the second edge 5 then being disposed at the front.

Alternativement, en cas d'ouvrant latéral s'ouvrant vers l'avant, le premier bord est disposé à l'avant, le deuxième bord étant alors disposé à l'arrière.Alternatively, in the case of a side opening opening towards the front, the first edge is arranged at the front, the second edge then being arranged at the rear.

La première bielle 20 s'articule au niveau de l'ouvrant 3 à proximité du premier bord 4. De préférence, cette articulation est assurée autour d'un premier axe A1, ou sensiblement autour d'un premier axe A1. Par exemple, le premier axe A1 est vertical ou sensiblement vertical.The first connecting rod 20 is articulated at the level of the opening 3 near the first edge 4. Preferably, this articulation is provided around a first axis A1, or substantially around a first axis A1. For example, the first axis A1 is vertical or substantially vertical.

Avantageusement, la deuxième bielle 30 s'articule au niveau de l'ouvrant 3 à proximité du deuxième bord 5. De préférence, cette articulation est assurée autour d'un deuxième axe A2, ou sensiblement autour d'un deuxième axe A2. Par exemple, le deuxième axe A2 est vertical ou sensiblement vertical.Advantageously, the second connecting rod 30 is articulated at the level of the opening 3 near the second edge 5. Preferably, this articulation is provided around a second axis A2, or substantially around a second axis A2. For example, the second axis A2 is vertical or substantially vertical.

Ainsi dans le cas de l'ouvrant 3 de type porte latérale, le premier axe A1 et le deuxième axe A2 sont décalés selon la direction longitudinale X ou sensiblement selon cette direction. La valeur de ce décalage est assujettie à la géométrie de l'ouvrant et de la caisse. La valeur est à maximiser pour augmenter l'écart entre les points de liaison de l'ouvrant à la caisse.Thus, in the case of the leaf 3 of the side door type, the first axis A1 and the second axis A2 are offset in the longitudinal direction X or substantially in this direction. The value of this offset is subject to the geometry of the sash and the body. The value should be maximized to increase the gap between the connection points of the sash and the body.

Comme illustré sur les figures 2 et 3, la deuxième bielle 30 est agencée, selon la direction verticale Z, en bas de l'ouvrant 3. De préférence, cet emplacement de la deuxième bielle 30 est situé, selon la direction verticale, au niveau du bas de la caisse 2. La première bielle 20 est agencée, selon la direction verticale Z, dans une zone médiane haute M de l'ouvrant 3. Par « zone médiane haute M de l'ouvrant 3», on entend par exemple la moitié supérieure de la hauteur, selon la direction verticale, de l'ouvrant 3. De préférence, cet emplacement de la première bielle 20 est situé, selon la direction verticale, dans une zone médiane haute de la caisse 2. Par « zone médiane haute de la caisse 2», on entend par exemple la moitié supérieure de la hauteur, selon la direction verticale, de la caisse 2.As shown on figures 2 and 3 , the second link 30 is arranged, in the vertical direction Z, at the bottom of the leaf 3. Preferably, this location of the second link 30 is located, in the vertical direction, at the bottom of the body 2. The first connecting rod 20 is arranged, in the vertical direction Z, in an upper middle zone M of the leaf 3. The term “upper middle zone M of the leaf 3” is understood to mean for example the upper half of the height, according to the vertical direction, of the leaf 3. Preferably, this location of the first connecting rod 20 is located, in the vertical direction, in an upper middle zone of the body 2. The term "upper middle zone of the body 2" is understood to mean for example the upper half of the height, in the vertical direction, of the body 2.

Avantageusement, comme illustré en particulier sur les figures 1 à 3, l'agencement 10 comprend une troisième bielle 40 s'articulant au niveau de l'ouvrant 3 et au niveau de la caisse 2. De préférence l'articulation de la troisième bielle 40 est assurée à proximité du deuxième bord 5 de l'ouvrant 3. De préférence, cette articulation se fait autour d'un troisième axe A3, ou sensiblement autour d'un troisième axe A3, par exemple un troisième axe A3 vertical ou sensiblement vertical. De préférence, cette troisième bielle 40 est agencée, selon la direction verticale Z, en haut de l'ouvrant 3. De préférence, cet emplacement de la troisième bielle 40 est situé, selon la direction verticale, au niveau du haut de la caisse 2.Advantageously, as illustrated in particular on the figures 1 to 3 , the arrangement 10 comprises a third connecting rod 40 articulated at the level of the opening 3 and at the level of the body 2. Preferably the articulation of the third connecting rod 40 is provided near the second edge 5 of the opening 3. Preferably, this articulation takes place around a third axis A3, or substantially around a third axis A3, for example a third vertical or substantially vertical axis A3. Preferably this third link 40 is arranged, in the vertical direction Z, at the top of the opening 3. Preferably, this location of the third link 40 is located, in the vertical direction, at the top of the body 2.

Avantageusement, comme illustré sur les figures 1 à 3 et 5, le deuxième axe A2 et le troisième axe A3 sont colinéaires, ou confondus, ou sensiblement confondus.Advantageously, as illustrated on the figures 1 to 3 and 5 , the second axis A2 and the third axis A3 are collinear, or merged, or substantially merged.

Avantageusement, comme illustré sur les figures 1 à 3 et 5, les deuxième et troisième bielles 30, 40 s'articulent par rapport à la caisse 2 autour d'axes colinéaires, représenté comme un unique quatrième axe A4. L'axe A4 est par exemple vertical ou sensiblement vertical.Advantageously, as illustrated on the figures 1 to 3 and 5 , the second and third connecting rods 30, 40 are articulated with respect to the body 2 around collinear axes, represented as a single fourth axis A4. The axis A4 is for example vertical or substantially vertical.

Comme illustré en particulier sur la figure 2, l'ouvrant 3 comprend de préférence un bord inférieur 6 et une feuillure intérieure inférieure 6'. L'ouvrant 3 comprend de préférence un bord supérieur 7 et une feuillure intérieure supérieure 7'. La deuxième bielle 30 est agencée entre le bord inférieur 6 et la feuillure intérieure inférieure 6'. La troisième bielle 40 est agencée entre le bord supérieur 7 et la feuillure intérieure supérieure 7'. De préférence, la deuxième bielle 30 s'étend sur une épaisseur, selon la direction verticale, comprise entre le bord inférieur 6 et la feuillure intérieure inférieure 6'. De préférence, la troisième bielle 40 s'étend sur une épaisseur, selon la direction verticale, comprise entre le bord supérieur 7 et la feuillure intérieure supérieure 7'. De préférence chaque bielle s'articule dans un plan horizontal XY, c'est-à-dire longitudinal et transversal, ou sensiblement dans un tel plan. En outre les deuxième bielle 30 et troisième bielle 40 s'étendent sur une longueur inférieure à la largeur, selon la direction longitudinale, de l'ouvrant 3. Ainsi, lorsque l'ouvrant 3 est en position fermée (figure 2), la deuxième bielle 30 et la troisième bielle 40 ne sont pas visibles depuis l'habitacle 9 pour les passagers occupant le véhicule. Les deuxième et troisième bielles 30, 40 ne sont pas non plus visibles depuis l'extérieur du véhicule lorsque l'ouvrant 3 est fermé.As illustrated in particular on the figure 2 , the opening 3 preferably comprises a lower edge 6 and a lower internal rebate 6 '. The opening 3 preferably comprises an upper edge 7 and an upper internal rebate 7 '. The second connecting rod 30 is arranged between the lower edge 6 and the lower inner rebate 6 '. The third connecting rod 40 is arranged between the upper edge 7 and the upper internal rebate 7 '. Preferably, the second link 30 extends over a thickness, in the vertical direction, between the lower edge 6 and the lower inner rebate 6 '. Preferably, the third link 40 extends over a thickness, in the vertical direction, between the upper edge 7 and the upper internal rebate 7 '. Preferably, each connecting rod is articulated in a horizontal plane XY, that is to say longitudinal and transverse, or substantially in such a plane. In addition, the second connecting rod 30 and third connecting rod 40 extend over a length less than the width, in the longitudinal direction, of the leaf 3. Thus, when the leaf 3 is in the closed position ( figure 2 ), the second connecting rod 30 and the third connecting rod 40 are not visible from the passenger compartment 9 for the passengers occupying the vehicle. The second and third connecting rods 30, 40 are also not visible from outside the vehicle when the opening 3 is closed.

Avantageusement, comme illustré sur les figures 4 et 6, l'articulation entre la première bielle 20 et l'ouvrant 3 est de type rotule. Cette articulation comprend par exemple une chape 8 dotée de deux ailes 8'. La chape 8 est fixée sur l'ouvrant, par exemple par boulonnage et/ou rivetage et/ou vissage, à proximité du bord 4, par exemple à proximité de la feuillure 4'. Cette articulation comprend par exemple une tige 21 dotée d'un orifice. De préférence, la tige 21 est fileté de sorte à être fixée à la bielle 20 par vissage de deux écrous 22 venant pincer la première bielle 20. Une telle fixation permet un réglage entre l'ouvrant 3 et la caisse 2 au niveau de la première bielle 20. Par exemple une rotule, comprenant un arbre d'axe A1 ou sensiblement d'axe A1, est agencée au sein de l'orifice ménagé dans la tige 21, l'arbre coopérant avec les deux ailes de la chape 8. L'arbre d'axe A1 assure alors une liaison pivot d'axe A1 par rapport à la chape 8 alors que la rotule libère d'autres degrés de liberté en rotation.Advantageously, as illustrated on the figures 4 and 6 , the articulation between the first connecting rod 20 and the leaf 3 is of the ball joint type. This articulation comprises for example a yoke 8 provided with two wings 8 '. The yoke 8 is fixed to the opening, for example by bolting and / or riveting and / or screwing, near the edge 4, for example near the rebate 4 '. This articulation comprises for example a rod 21 provided with an orifice. Preferably, the rod 21 is threaded so as to be fixed to the connecting rod 20 by screwing two nuts 22 which clamp the first connecting rod 20. Such a fastening allows adjustment between the leaf 3 and the body 2 at the level of the first. connecting rod 20. For example a ball, comprising a shaft of axis A1 or substantially of axis A1, is arranged within the orifice formed in the rod 21, the shaft cooperating with the two wings of the yoke 8. L 'axis A1 shaft then provides a pivot link of axis A1 relative to the yoke 8 while the ball joint releases other degrees of freedom in rotation.

Avantageusement, comme illustré sur la figure 2, la première bielle 20 et/ou la deuxième bielle 30 comprend un moyen d'ouverture / fermeture 50 de l'ouvrant 3. Par exemple le moyen d'ouverture / fermeture 50 comprend un moteur.Advantageously, as illustrated on figure 2 , the first connecting rod 20 and / or the second connecting rod 30 comprises an opening / closing means 50 of the leaf 3. For example the opening / closing means 50 comprises a motor.

Par exemple, comme illustré sur la figure 7, selon une variante du mode de réalisation, l'agencement 10 comprend deux ouvrants pour une même ouverture 11 ménagée au sein de la caisse 2. Dans le cas d'une ouverture 11 latérale, un ouvrant latéral 3' est agencé à l'avant et s'ouvre vers l'avant alors que le second ouvrant latéral, l'ouvrant 3, est agencé à l'arrière et s'ouvre vers l'arrière. En cas de véhicule automobile destiné à être mutualisé et par conséquent très utilisé, l'ouverture 11 dans la caisse peut être de grande dimension, en particulier selon la direction longitudinale. Les entrées et sorties des passagers, fréquentes, sont alors facilitées.For example, as shown in the figure 7 , according to a variant of the embodiment, the arrangement 10 comprises two openings for the same opening 11 formed within the body 2. In the case of a lateral opening 11, a lateral opening 3 'is arranged at the front and opens towards the front while the second side opening, the opening 3, is arranged at the rear and opens towards the rear. In the case of a motor vehicle intended to be shared and therefore widely used, the opening 11 in the body can be of large size, in particular in the longitudinal direction. The frequent entries and exits of passengers are then facilitated.

Les première et deuxième bielles 20, 30 offrent une grande robustesse à l'ouvrant 3. En effet l'éloignement ou écartement, selon la direction longitudinale pour une porte latérale, entre les premier et deuxième axes A1 et A2, génère une grande rigidité. La robustesse est davantage accentuée en cas de recours à la troisième bielle 40. En effet, cette configuration permet d'assurer une triangulation avec une « superficie » de triangle entre les points de fixation des bielles, ou chapes, suffisante pour assurer robustesse et fiabilité. Pour une rigidité augmentée, la superficie de triangle doit être maximisée au regard de la géométrie de l'ouvrant. Pour rappel, l'articulation entre l'ouvrant 3 et la deuxième bielle 30, par exemple d'axe A2, est éloignée de l'articulation entre l'ouvrant 3 et la première bielle 20, par exemple d'axe A1. L'interface entre la première bielle 20 et l'ouvrant 3 est réalisée via une liaison rotule ce qui permet d'introduire un degré de liberté en rotation selon la direction transversale ou sensiblement transversale Y pour absorber la variabilité géométrique éventuelle des pièces et du processus d'assemblage. Ainsi, tout blocage du mécanisme, ou efforts de manipulation élevés, sont atténués voire supprimés tout en permettant à la première bielle 20 de reprendre partiellement la masse de l'ouvrant 3. Avantageusement, l'interface entre la caisse 2 et la première bielle 20 comprend un arbre de sorte à obtenir une liaison de type pivot, par exemple d'axe A5. L'axe A5 est de préférence vertical ou sensiblement vertical.The first and second connecting rods 20, 30 offer great strength to the leaf 3. In fact, the distance or spacing, in the longitudinal direction for a side door, between the first and second axes A1 and A2, generates great rigidity. The robustness is further accentuated in the event of recourse to the third connecting rod 40. In fact, this configuration makes it possible to ensure triangulation with a triangle “surface” between the attachment points of the connecting rods, or yokes, sufficient to ensure robustness and reliability. . For increased rigidity, the triangle area must be maximized with regard to the geometry of the sash. As a reminder, the articulation between the opening 3 and the second link 30, for example with axis A2, is remote from the articulation between the opening 3 and the first connecting rod 20, for example with axis A1. The interface between the first connecting rod 20 and the opening 3 is produced via a ball joint which makes it possible to introduce a degree of freedom in rotation in the transverse or substantially transverse direction Y to absorb the possible geometric variability of the parts and of the process assembly. Thus, any blocking of the mechanism, or high handling forces, are reduced or even eliminated while allowing the first connecting rod 20 to partially take up the mass of the leaf 3. Advantageously, the interface between the body 2 and the first connecting rod 20 comprises a shaft so as to obtain a pivot type connection, for example of axis A5. The axis A5 is preferably vertical or substantially vertical.

De plus, comme évoqués précédemment, les bielles sont fixées au niveau de l'ouvrant entre les bords et les feuillures adjacentes ce qui rend ces fixations de type articulation entre les bielles et l'ouvrant invisibles aussi bien depuis l'intérieur de l'habitacle que depuis l'extérieur du véhicule lorsque l'ouvrant est fermé. Il en résulte que l'esthétique des surfaces extérieures de l'ouvrant n'est pas impactée. Le design du véhicule n'est donc pas remis en question par l'agencement 10 utilisant des bielles. Cette solution n'empêche pas d'étanchéifier à l'eau et/ou en termes d'acoustique, via des techniques simples. L'absence de roulement d'une pièce sur une autre évite toute nuisance sonore. En résumé, le niveau de qualité perçue demeure élevé avec un tel agencement 10.In addition, as mentioned above, the connecting rods are fixed at the level of the opening between the edges and the adjacent rabbets which makes these articulation type fasteners between the connecting rods and the opening invisible as well from inside the passenger compartment. only from outside the vehicle when the door is closed. As a result, the aesthetics of the exterior surfaces of the opening are not affected. The design of the vehicle is therefore not called into question by the arrangement 10 using connecting rods. This solution does not prevent sealing with water and / or in terms of acoustics, via simple techniques. The lack of rolling of a room on another avoids any noise pollution. In summary, the level of perceived quality remains high with such an arrangement 10.

En résumé, la deuxième bielle 30, ou bielle inférieure, est fixée sur l'ouvrant 3 dans la zone de transition inférieure de l'ouvrant, entre la découpe extérieure ou bord inférieur 6 et la feuillure inférieure intérieure 6'. De préférence l'interface de la deuxième bielle 30 avec l'ouvrant 3 comprend un arbre, par exemple de sorte à réaliser une liaison pivot d'axe A2 ou sensiblement d'axe A2 avec l'ouvrant 3. La deuxième bielle 30 est dimensionnée pour porter la majorité de la masse de l'ouvrant 3. De préférence, l'interface de la deuxième bielle 30 avec la caisse 2 comprend un arbre, par exemple de sorte à réaliser une liaison pivot d'axe A4 ou sensiblement d'axe A4 avec la caisse 2.In summary, the second link 30, or lower link, is fixed to the opening 3 in the lower transition zone of the opening, between the outer cutout or lower edge 6 and the lower inner rebate 6 '. Preferably the interface of the second connecting rod 30 with the opening 3 comprises a shaft, for example so as to produce a pivot connection of axis A2 or substantially of axis A2 with the opening 3. The second connecting rod 30 is dimensioned to support the majority of the mass of the opening 3. Preferably, the interface of the second connecting rod 30 with the body 2 comprises a shaft, for example so as to produce a pivot connection of axis A4 or substantially of axis A4 with cash register 2.

En résumé, la première bielle 20, ou bielle centrale du fait de son placement dans la zone médiane M selon la direction verticale, est fixée sur l'ouvrant 3 dans la zone de transition du bord vertical arrière 4 de l'ouvrant arrière 3, entre la découpe extérieure arrière 4 et la feuillure intérieure arrière 4'. Comme évoqué précédemment, l'interface de la première bielle 20 avec l'ouvrant 3 comprend une liaison rotule. L'interface de la première bielle 20 avec la caisse 2 est agencée au niveau d'un côté de caisse arrière 12, derrière l'ouvrant 3 lorsqu'il se trouve en position fermée, comme illustré sur les figures 1 et 2. Depuis l'extérieur, en position fermée de l'ouvrant, la première bielle 20, et éventuellement son articulation sur le côté de caisse 12, demeurent visibles. Il peut être envisagé un moyen d'occultation, telle une trappe articulée, destinée à venir à affleurement de la caisse pour fermer un logement de caisse dans lequel est positionné la première bielle 20.In summary, the first connecting rod 20, or central connecting rod due to its placement in the middle zone M in the vertical direction, is fixed on the opening 3 in the transition zone of the rear vertical edge 4 of the rear opening 3, between the rear outer cutout 4 and the rear inner rebate 4 '. As mentioned above, the interface of the first connecting rod 20 with the opening 3 comprises a ball joint. The interface of the first connecting rod 20 with the body 2 is arranged at a side of the rear body 12, behind the opening 3 when it is in the closed position, as illustrated in the figures. figures 1 and 2 . From the outside, in the closed position of the opening, the first connecting rod 20, and possibly its articulation on the body side 12, remain visible. It can be envisaged a concealment means, such as an articulated hatch, intended to come flush with the body to close a body housing in which the first connecting rod 20 is positioned.

De préférence, comme illustré sur la figure 8, lors de l'ouverture de l'ouvrant 3, les quatre segments « caisse 2 », « deuxième bielle 30 », « ouvrant 3 » et « première bielle 20 », vus de dessus, créent un quadrilatère déformable qui n'est pas un parallélogramme. Ainsi, de préférence, seules la bielle supérieure 40 et la bielle inférieure 30 ont des axes de pivotement parallèles et colinéaires, aussi bien par rapport à l'ouvrant que par rapport à la caisse. Il en résulte que la deuxième bielle 30 et la troisième bielle 40 ont des entraxes identiques, ou sensiblement identiques, et génèrent des angles identiques, ou sensiblement identiques, par rapport à l'ouvrant 3 et/ou à l'ouverture 11 dans la caisse 2. La première bielle 20, ou bielle centrale, a alors un entraxe et des angles de pivotement légèrement différents des deuxième et troisième bielles 30, 40. Ainsi, contrairement à des segments qui s'apparenteraient à un parallélogramme lors de l'ouverture de l'ouvrant avec trois bielles parallèles entre elles et dotées d'une même valeur d'entraxe ou sensiblement, avec une géométrie ne constituant pas un parallélogramme, il devient alors plus aisé d'adapter les bielles et les interfaces par rapport aux formes extérieures de l'ouvrant 3 et/ou du côté de caisse 12 et/ou de la caisse 2.Preferably, as illustrated on figure 8 , when opening the sash 3, the four segments "body 2", "second rod 30", "sash 3" and "first rod 20", seen from above, create a quadrilateral deformable which is not a parallelogram. Thus, preferably, only the upper link 40 and the lower link 30 have parallel and collinear pivot axes, both with respect to the opening and with respect to the body. The result is that the second connecting rod 30 and the third connecting rod 40 have identical or substantially identical center distances and generate identical or substantially identical angles with respect to the opening 3 and / or to the opening 11 in the body. 2. The first connecting rod 20, or central connecting rod, then has a center distance and pivoting angles that are slightly different from the second and third connecting rods 30, 40. Thus, unlike segments which would resemble a parallelogram when opening the opening it with three connecting rods parallel to each other and having the same center-to-center value or substantially, with a geometry not constituting a parallelogram, it then becomes easier to adapt the connecting rods and the interfaces with respect to the external shapes of the sash 3 and / or the side of the body 12 and / or the box 2.

En variante, la géométrie peut être du type parallélogramme.As a variant, the geometry can be of the parallelogram type.

A noter que de par leurs emplacements en haut et en bas, les deuxième et troisième bielles 30, 40 n'entravent pas l'accès ou la sortie de l'habitacle 9. La première bielle 20 étant agencée du côté du déplacement, autrement dit à l'arrière pour une porte latérale arrière 3 s'ouvrant vers l'arrière et à l'avant pour une porte latérale avant 3' s'ouvrant vers l'avant, la première bielle 20 n'entrave pas non plus l'accès ou la sortie de l'habitacle 9.Note that by virtue of their locations at the top and bottom, the second and third connecting rods 30, 40 do not hinder access to or exit from the passenger compartment 9. The first connecting rod 20 being arranged on the displacement side, in other words at the rear for a rear side door 3 opening towards the rear and at the front for a front side door 3 'opening towards the front, the first connecting rod 20 also does not obstruct access or leaving the passenger compartment 9.

A noter que la forme des bielles peut être spécifique. Par exemple, comme illustré sur la figure 4 concernant une première bielle 20, l'articulation entre la première bielle et la caisse et l'articulation entre la première bielle et l'ouvrant sont décalées d'une valeur E selon la direction verticale. Ce décalage, associé à la première bielle 20 « désaxée » selon la direction verticale, facilite la compatibilité avec les formes et lignes de style extérieur du véhicule.Note that the shape of the connecting rods can be specific. For example, as shown in the figure 4 concerning a first connecting rod 20, the articulation between the first connecting rod and the body and the articulation between the first connecting rod and the opening are offset by a value E in the vertical direction. This offset, associated with the first connecting rod 20 “off-center” in the vertical direction, facilitates compatibility with the shapes and lines of the exterior style of the vehicle.

De préférence, la première bielle 20 supporte également la masse de l'ouvrant 3. Toutefois, avantageusement, sa section a des dimensions plus faibles comparées aux dimensions de la section de la deuxième bielle 30.Preferably, the first link 20 also supports the mass of the opening 3. However, advantageously, its section has smaller dimensions compared to the dimensions of the section of the second link 30.

Comme évoqué précédemment, une bielle supérieure ou troisième bielle 40 est fixée sur l'ouvrant 3 dans la zone de transition supérieure de l'ouvrant, entre la découpe extérieure supérieure 7 et la feuillure intérieure supérieure 7'. De préférence, cette troisième bielle assure uniquement une fonction de guidage. Elle ne reprend pas ou peu d'efforts dus à la masse de l'ouvrant.As mentioned above, an upper or third connecting rod 40 is fixed to the opening 3 in the upper transition zone of the opening, between the upper outer cutout 7 and the upper internal rebate 7 '. Preferably, this third link performs only a guiding function. It does not take up or little effort due to the mass of the opening.

Cet agencement comprenant trois bielles pour une même porte est particulièrement robuste ce qui le rend fiable dans le temps, malgré un nombre important de cycle d'utilisation sur la durée de vie du véhicule de type mutualisé. En raison de l'absence de roulement, l'ouverture comme la fermeture sont particulièrement silencieuses. Les articulations entre les bielles et l'ouvrant étant entre les bords de porte et les feuillures adjacentes, les bielles sont invisibles pour les passagers installés à l'intérieur de l'habitacle 9 une fois l'ouvrant 3 en position fermée (figure 2).This arrangement comprising three connecting rods for the same door is particularly robust, which makes it reliable over time, despite a large number of use cycles over the life of the vehicle of the shared type. Due to the lack of rolling, opening and closing are particularly quiet. The joints between the connecting rods and the leaf being between the door edges and the adjacent rebates, the connecting rods are invisible to the passengers installed inside the passenger compartment 9 once the leaf 3 is in the closed position ( figure 2 ).

De préférence, le moyen d'ouverture / fermeture 50 permet d'automatiser l'ouverture de la porte en appliquant un couple à la première bielle 20. Dans ce cas, un moteur et éventuellement une transmission adaptée sont montés au niveau de l'interface entre la caisse 2 et la bielle 20, par exemple sur une chape adaptée 23 illustrée sur la figure 4. Le moteur permet par exemple de créer un couple autour, ou sensiblement autour de l'axe A5.Preferably, the opening / closing means 50 makes it possible to automate the opening of the door by applying a torque to the first connecting rod 20. In this case, a motor and possibly a suitable transmission are mounted at the level of the interface. between the body 2 and the connecting rod 20, for example on a suitable yoke 23 illustrated on the figure 4 . The motor makes it possible for example to create a torque around, or substantially around the axis A5.

De préférence, comme illustrée sur la figure 7, la variante du mode de réalisation comprend une ouverture 11 obstruée par deux ouvrants, l'ouvrant arrière 3 s'ouvrant vers l'arrière, et l'ouvrant avant 3' s'ouvrant vers l'avant. Ces deux ouvrants sont des portes « louvoyantes », autrement dit pivotantes autour d'axes verticaux ou sensiblement verticaux, offrant une cinématique accueillante pour les utilisateurs du véhicule. Le principe d'ouverture/fermeture pour la porte avant 3' est similaire au principe d'ouverture/fermeture pour la porte arrière 3. A noter que de préférence les portes avant et arrière 3, 3' s'ouvrent et se ferment simultanément, ou sensiblement simultanément. En outre, une telle cinématique n'empiète pas, ou peu, sur l'ouverture 11 ce qui confère une excellente accessibilité au sein de l'habitacle 9 du véhicule automobile 1.Preferably, as illustrated on figure 7 , the variant of the embodiment comprises an opening 11 blocked by two openings, the rear opening 3 opening towards the rear, and the front opening 3 'opening forward. These two openings are “wandering” doors, in other words pivoting around vertical or substantially vertical axes, offering a welcoming kinematics for the users of the vehicle. The opening / closing principle for the front door 3 'is similar to the opening / closing principle for the rear door 3. Note that preferably the front and rear doors 3, 3' open and close simultaneously, or substantially simultaneously. In addition, such kinematics do not encroach, or only slightly, on the opening 11, which confers excellent accessibility within the passenger compartment 9 of the motor vehicle 1.

Cet agencement est particulièrement simple puisqu'il ne requiert pour les articulations que des arbres ou axes et au moins une rotule de préférence. Comme évoqué précédemment, l'agencement est particulièrement robuste ce qui le rend fiable et durable. La grande triangulation obtenue grâce aux trois bielles offre une excellente stabilité lors des manœuvres d'ouverture comme de fermeture de l'ouvrant. De préférence, des jeux de fonctionnement au niveau des arbres ou axes de liaison pivot et/ou des liaisons de type rotule sont faibles afin d'accroître la stabilité et la précision de manoeuvre. Seules les première et deuxième bielles de préférence assurent la reprise de la masse de l'ouvrant. La bielle supérieure 40 assure de préférence la reprise d'efforts selon la direction longitudinale X ou sensiblement selon cette direction et selon la direction transversale Y ou sensiblement selon cette direction, en particulier selon la position d'ouverture de l'ouvrant. De préférence encore, la troisième bielle 40 ne reprend pas d'effort selon la direction verticale Z ou sensiblement selon cette direction. Un tel agencement offre davantage de liberté au design des surfaces extérieures.This arrangement is particularly simple since it only requires for the joints shafts or pins and preferably at least one ball joint. As mentioned above, the arrangement is particularly robust which makes it reliable and durable. The large triangulation obtained thanks to the three connecting rods offers excellent stability during opening and closing maneuvers of the sash. Preferably, the operating clearances at the level of the pivot link shafts or pins and / or of the ball type links are low in order to increase the stability and the precision of operation. Only the first and second connecting rods preferably ensure the absorption of the mass of the opening. The upper link 40 preferably ensures the absorption of forces in the longitudinal direction X or substantially in this direction and in the transverse direction Y or substantially in this direction, in particular depending on the opening position of the leaf. Also preferably, the third connecting rod 40 does not take up any force in the vertical direction Z or substantially in this direction. Such an arrangement gives more freedom to the design of the exterior surfaces.

A noter que cette solution est particulièrement adaptée à un véhicule à motorisation hybride ou électrique. En effet l'épaisseur du plancher d'un tel véhicule est par exemple augmentée afin d'y loger au moins une batterie. Ainsi, la deuxième bielle, qui a une section importante puisqu'elle reprend majoritairement la masse de l'ouvrant, est implantée sur la caisse au niveau de ce plancher. En d'autres termes, on profite de l'épaisseur de la caisse à cet emplacement pour agencer la deuxième bielle qui a une épaisseur selon la direction verticale importante.Note that this solution is particularly suitable for a vehicle with a hybrid or electric motor. In fact, the thickness of the floor of such a vehicle is for example increased in order to house at least one battery therein. Thus, the second connecting rod, which has a large section since it mainly takes up the mass of the opening, is located on the body at the level of this floor. In other words, we take advantage of the thickness of the body at this location to arrange the second connecting rod which has a thickness in the significant vertical direction.

L'agencement offre un silence en cours de fonctionnement, notamment du fait de l'absence de glissière et/ou roulement d'éléments roulant.The arrangement offers silence during operation, in particular due to the absence of a slide and / or bearing of rolling elements.

A noter que la première bielle 20 peut être agencée à différents emplacements selon la direction verticale. De préférence, une position plutôt en partie supérieure de la zone médiane comme illustré sur la figure 2, sur un ouvrant de type porte arrière latérale, permet de s'éloigner du passage de roue arrière au niveau de l'interface entre la première bielle et la partie supérieure de la caisse, en l'occurrence le côté de caisse arrière 12. Un tel positionnement, dans le cas d'un ouvrant de type porte latérale avant permet de s'éloigner du compartiment moteur au niveau de l'interface entre la première bielle et la partie supérieure de la caisse avant, en l'occurrence un côté de caisse avant par exemple. Ainsi, l'emplacement de la première bielle peut être choisi en fonction de l'esthétique du véhicule. Quoiqu'il en soit, il convient de respecter un éloignement conséquent entre l'articulation de la première bielle sur l'ouvrant et l'articulation de la deuxième et/ou de la troisième bielle sur l'ouvrant selon la direction longitudinale pour un ouvrant de type porte latérale. En effet, il convient de conserver une grande superficie de triangle entre les trois axes de fixation des bielles sur l'ouvrant.Note that the first connecting rod 20 can be arranged at different locations in the vertical direction. Preferably, a position rather in the upper part of the middle zone as illustrated in figure 2 , on a rear side door type opening, allows moving away from the rear wheel arch at the interface between the first connecting rod and the upper part of the body, in this case the rear body side 12. A such positioning, in the case of an opening of the front side door type, makes it possible to move away from the engine compartment at the level of the interface between the first connecting rod and the upper part of the front body, in this case one side of the body before for example. Thus, the location of the first connecting rod can be chosen according to the aesthetics of the vehicle. Be that as it may, it is necessary to respect a substantial distance between the articulation of the first link on the leaf and the articulation of the second and / or the third link on the leaf in the longitudinal direction for a leaf. side door type. Indeed, it is advisable to keep a large triangle area between the three fixing axes of the connecting rods on the opening.

Pour un ouvrant de type porte de coffre arrière par exemple, cet éloignement d'axe s'étend selon la direction transversale ou sensiblement selon cette direction.For an opening of the rear trunk door type for example, this distance from the axis extends in the transverse direction or substantially in this direction.

Ainsi, le véhicule peut ne comprendre qu'un seul agencement comprenant un seul ouvrant, par exemple une porte latérale à droite ou à gauche, ou encore un agencement doté d'une porte latérale de chaque côté du véhicule, autrement dit une porte latérale à droite et une porte latérale à gauche.Thus, the vehicle may include only one arrangement comprising a single opening, for example a side door on the right or on the left, or still an arrangement with a side door on each side of the vehicle, in other words a side door on the right and a side door on the left.

Alternativement, le véhicule est équipé d'un agencement comprenant deux ouvrants d'un même côté ou encore d'un agencement comprenant aussi bien à droite qu'à gauche deux ouvrants 3, 3' comme illustré sur la figure 7.Alternatively, the vehicle is fitted with an arrangement comprising two openings on the same side or else an arrangement comprising both on the right and on the left two openings 3, 3 'as illustrated in figure 7 .

En cas d'agencement ne comprenant qu'un seul ouvrant par côté de véhicule, seule la première bielle est visible en position fermée de l'ouvrant. Dans le cas d'agencement comprenant une porte latérale avant et une porte latérale arrière, la première bielle de la porte latérale avant et la première bielle de la porte latérale arrière sont visibles en position fermée des ouvrants. Ainsi, une seule porte latérale peut être préférable par côté de véhicule du point de vue de l'esthétique. Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, un cache peut être utilisé afin de masquer la première bielle lorsque la porte associée est en position de fermeture.In the case of an arrangement comprising only one opening per side of the vehicle, only the first connecting rod is visible in the closed position of the opening. In the case of an arrangement comprising a front side door and a rear side door, the first link of the front side door and the first link of the rear side door are visible in the closed position of the openings. Thus, a single side door may be preferable per vehicle side from an aesthetic point of view. According to a preferred embodiment, a cover can be used to hide the first link when the associated door is in the closed position.

A noter qu'un agencement à une seule porte est plus simple en termes de gestion de l'étanchéité qu'un agencement comprenant deux portes. En outre, une seule porte évite de devoir gérer l'éventualité d'un choc latéral entre les deux portes adjacentes. De plus, dans ce cas, un seul moteur suffit à entraîner l'ouverture et la fermeture de l'unique ouvrant ce qui est particulièrement économique d'autant qu'une serrure peut être supprimée.Note that an arrangement with a single door is simpler in terms of managing the seal than an arrangement comprising two doors. In addition, a single door avoids having to deal with the possibility of a side impact between the two adjacent doors. In addition, in this case, a single motor is sufficient to drive the opening and closing of the single opening, which is particularly economical, especially since a lock can be removed.

A noter qu'en cas d'agencement ne comprenant qu'une seule porte arrière latérale d'un côté du véhicule, le bord arrière de la porte en position ouverte peut par exemple dépasser de l'extrémité arrière du véhicule.Note that in the event of an arrangement comprising only one side rear door on one side of the vehicle, the rear edge of the door in the open position may, for example, protrude from the rear end of the vehicle.

En remarque, la solution atteint donc l'objectif recherché de faciliter l'accès au sein d'un habitacle tout en offrant un mécanisme d'ouverture / fermeture d'un ouvrant fiable, durable, silencieux et invisible depuis l'habitacle lorsque l'ouvrant est fermé, et présente les avantages suivants :

  • Elle peut être appliquée à tout véhicule automobile, aussi bien véhicule particulier que véhicule utilitaire, notamment quand l'accessibilité est un facteur important ;
  • Elle peut être appliquée à des moyens de transport en commun, par exemple bus, trains, tramways, voire bateaux ;
  • Elle peut être appliquée dans d'autres domaines, par exemple dans le domaine du bâtiment.
As a side note, the solution therefore achieves the desired objective of facilitating access to a passenger compartment while offering an opening / closing mechanism. a reliable, durable, silent and invisible sash from the passenger compartment when the sash is closed, and has the following advantages:
  • It can be applied to any motor vehicle, both private vehicle and utility vehicle, in particular when accessibility is an important factor;
  • It can be applied to means of public transport, for example buses, trains, trams, even boats;
  • It can be applied in other fields, for example in the building field.
