Definitions
- the invention relates to manipulation devices which are intended to allow manipulation by persons of equipment to be introduced into systems.
- a manipulation device In order to facilitate this installation, and in particular to prevent the person in charge of it from being forced to perform complex (not very ergonomic) movements while carrying the equipment, a manipulation device is used.
- the latter generally comprises a support part intended to be suspended close to the system (into which equipment must be introduced) and to which is coupled a fixing assembly to which this equipment is intended to be temporarily fixed in a standby position.
- the support piece generally comprises a ring which is secured to an arm of a gantry which is movable relative to the system.
- the handling device described above is no longer perfectly suitable. This is particularly the case, for example, when one is forced to install a front seat in a vehicle when it is pre-equipped with its head restraint, because the latter is connected to the backrest by at least an electrical cable (for example connected to built-in speakers).
- the headrest must be electrically connected to the backrest in order to guarantee electrical continuity and to avoid stains and additional operations on the assembly line.
- the presence of such a headrest forces the person who uses the handling device to tilt the assembly for fixing with the seat in order to pass them through the doorway without damaging the peripheral door seal.
- the angle of inclination which is typically between 45° and 50°, forces the person to exert a lifting force on the lower part of the seat to make it pivot with the fixing assembly, then to keep the seat tilted fixing assembly with the seat at the same time as it moves the gantry to make them penetrate into the passenger compartment.
- This lifting effort amounts to carrying a load of approximately 13 kg, which is not ergonomic and proves tiring, in particular in the event of numerous repetitions in the same day.
- the object of the invention is therefore in particular to improve the situation.
- a manipulation device on the one hand, intended to allow the manipulation by a person of equipment to be introduced at an angle into a system, and, on the other hand, comprising a support part intended to be suspended close to the system and to which is coupled a fixing assembly to which the equipment is intended to be temporarily fixed in a standby position.
- a manipulation device of the type presented above can be used to manipulate equipment constituting a seat in order to introduce it obliquely into a system constituting a vehicle.
- this equipment can constitute a front seat comprising a backrest comprising a headrest connected to at least one cable, and this vehicle can be of the automobile type.
- the object of the invention is in particular to propose a manipulation device 1 intended to allow the manipulation by a person of equipment to be introduced at an angle into a system.
- the equipment constitutes a seat to be introduced at an angle into a system constituting a vehicle.
- the invention is not limited either to this type of equipment or to this type of system.
- the vehicle is of the automobile type. This is for example a car. But the invention is not limited to this type of vehicle. It relates in fact to any type of vehicle comprising at least one door giving access to a passenger compartment and through which at least one seat must be introduced at an angle. Consequently, the invention relates at least to land vehicles (and in particular motor vehicles, commercial vehicles, road construction machinery, trucks, coaches (or buses), construction machinery and all-terrain machinery ), certain boats, and some aircraft.
- FIG. 1 Schematically represented on the figures 1 to 3 , at least partially, part of an exemplary embodiment of a manipulation device 1 according to the invention, without the equipment (here a front seat with a headrest) that it is intended to introduce at an angle into a system (here a motor vehicle).
- equipment here a front seat with a headrest
- a system here a motor vehicle
- a manipulation device 1 As illustrated on the figures 1 to 3 , a manipulation device 1, according to the invention, comprises a support part 2, a curvilinear rail 3, and a fixing assembly 4.
- the fixing assembly 4 is intended to allow the temporary fixing of equipment, to be introduced at an angle into the system (here via a vehicle door passage), in a waiting position.
- This fixing assembly 4 is adapted to the equipment to be fixed on it.
- the invention does not relate directly to this fixing assembly 4 (illustrated on the figure 2 and 3 ), it is not described in detail here. Those skilled in the art will understand that it can be substantially identical to that which is commonly used in the prior art, for example for the introduction of front seats without headrests.
- the curvilinear rail 3 is fixedly secured to the fixing assembly and comprises a handling handle 5 suitable for gripping by a hand of a person (or a technician) in charge of introducing the equipment in the system.
- This fixed connection can be made by welding or by bolting, for example.
- the support piece 2 is intended to be suspended close to the system (here a vehicle).
- the support piece 2 may comprise a ring 6 which is intended to be secured to an arm of a gantry (not shown), movable relative to the system.
- This gantry is optionally part of the handling device 1.
- This support piece 2 comprises a curvilinear slide 7 in which is slidably mounted the curvilinear rail 3.
- the fixing assembly is coupled to the support part 2 via the curvilinear rail 3.
- the curvature of the slide 7 is identical to that of the curvilinear rail 3, even if the length of the latter (3) is preferably significantly greater than that of the slide 7. Thanks to this arrangement, when the person slides the rail curvilinear 3 with respect to the slide 7, by means of the manipulation handle 5, the curvilinear rail 3 passes from an initial position (illustrated in the picture 2 ) to a final position (shown in the picture 3 ) in which the equipment is in an offset and inclined position suitable for its introduction at an angle into the system.
- the angular sector over which the curvilinear rail 3 extends depends on the angle of inclination that the equipment must have in its offset and inclined position in order to be able to be introduced easily into the system.
- the person therefore no longer has to exert a lifting force on the lower part of the seat to make it pivot with the fixing assembly, and no effort to keep the fixing assembly inclined with headquarters. He must however exert a force by means of the handling handle 5 to move the curvilinear rail 3 from its initial position to its final position, but this force is notably weaker and much more ergonomic than the effort of raising the prior art. Furthermore, once the curvilinear rail 3 is in its final position (shown in the picture 3 ) the person handling it automatically knows that the angle of introduction of the seat into the system (here a vehicle) is the right one.
- the fixing assembly 4 may be intended to maintain the equipment in a waiting position which is vertical.
- the entire sliding stroke of the curvilinear rail 3 is used to place the equipment (here a seat) in its offset and predefined inclined position.
- the fixing assembly 4 can be intended to hold the equipment in an offset position and inclined at an angle of between 30° and 60° with respect to the waiting position.
- angle of inclination are well suited to the case where the equipment is a front seat equipped with a headrest connected by wire to the backrest.
- the substantially rectangular shape of the manipulation handle 5, illustrated on the figure 1 is illustrative. Consequently, any other shape can be envisaged as long as it allows gripping by one hand. In particular, this shape may be U-shaped or I-shaped or even C-shaped, for example.
- the curvilinear rail 3 may include a notch 8, and the slide 7 may include a protrusion 9 intended to be housed in this notch 8 when the curvilinear rail 3 is in its final position, in order to maintain this curvilinear rail 3 in this final position .
- the notch 8 surrounds (and houses) the protrusion 9 and therefore the curvilinear rail 3 finds itself immobilized in its final position relative to the slide 7 (and therefore relative to the support piece 2).
- the protrusion 9 may have the shape of a sawtooth (substantially triangular), and in this case the notch 8 has a triangular shape substantially homologous to that of the protrusion 9 to house it.
- the notch 8 can be defined in a part of the manipulation handle 5. This part is, here, located on one of the two connections between the curvilinear rail 3 and the manipulation handle 5.
- the slide 7 may include a notch
- the curvilinear rail 3 may include a protrusion intended to be housed in this notch when the rail curvilinear 3 is in its final position, in order to maintain the curvilinear rail 3 in this final position.
- the protuberance may have the shape of a sawtooth (substantially triangular), and in this case the notch has a triangular shape substantially homologous to that of the protuberance to accommodate it.
- the protuberance can be defined in a part of the handling handle 5. This part can be located on one of the two connections between the curvilinear rail 3 and the handling handle 5.
- the slide 7 can advantageously comprise a side face 10 provided with a grab handle 11 allowing the person to hold the support piece 2 in a fixed position during the sliding of the curvilinear rail 3. This makes it possible to stabilize the piece of support 2 and thus facilitate the aforementioned sliding. In addition, this makes it easier for the person to control the movement of the mobile gantry to the arm of which the support part 2 is coupled.
- the U-shape of the grab handle 11, illustrated on the figure 1 is illustrative. Consequently, any other shape can be envisaged as long as it allows gripping by one hand. In particular, this shape may be a rectangular or I-shaped or even C-shaped, for example.

Description
L'invention concerne les dispositifs de manipulation qui sont destinés à permettre la manipulation par des personnes d'équipements devant être introduits dans des systèmes.The invention relates to manipulation devices which are intended to allow manipulation by persons of equipment to be introduced into systems.
Comme le sait l'homme de l'art, l'installation de certains équipements lourds et/ou encombrants dans certains systèmes peut s'avérer difficile. C'est, par exemple et non limitativement, le cas des sièges avant qui doivent être introduits dans l'habitacle d'un véhicule automobile en cours d'assemblage sur une chaîne de montage. Un dispositif selon l'état de la technique est divulgué dans le document
Afin de faciliter cette installation, et notamment d'éviter que la personne qui en a la charge soit contrainte d'effectuer des mouvements complexes (peu ergonomiques) tout en portant l'équipement, on utilise un dispositif de manipulation. Ce dernier comprend généralement une pièce de support destinée à être suspendue à proximité du système (dans lequel doit être introduit un équipement) et à laquelle est couplé un ensemble de fixation auquel est destiné à être temporairement fixé cet équipement dans une position d'attente. La pièce de support comprend généralement un anneau qui est solidarisé à un bras d'un portique qui est mobile par rapport au système.In order to facilitate this installation, and in particular to prevent the person in charge of it from being forced to perform complex (not very ergonomic) movements while carrying the equipment, a manipulation device is used. The latter generally comprises a support part intended to be suspended close to the system (into which equipment must be introduced) and to which is coupled a fixing assembly to which this equipment is intended to be temporarily fixed in a standby position. The support piece generally comprises a ring which is secured to an arm of a gantry which is movable relative to the system.
Lorsque l'encombrement de l'équipement augmente sans que la partie du système par laquelle on l'introduit ne change sensiblement, le dispositif de manipulation décrit ci-avant n'est plus parfaitement adapté. C'est notamment le cas, par exemple, lorsque l'on est contraint d'installer dans un véhicule un siège avant alors qu'il est pré-équipé de son appui-tête, parce que ce dernier est raccordé au dossier par au moins un câble électrique (par exemple connecté à des haut-parleurs intégrés). Dans ce cas, l'appui-tête doit être électriquement raccordé au dossier afin de garantir la continuité électrique et d'éviter des taches et opérations supplémentaires sur la chaîne de montage.When the bulk of the equipment increases without the part of the system through which it is introduced changing substantially, the handling device described above is no longer perfectly suitable. This is particularly the case, for example, when one is forced to install a front seat in a vehicle when it is pre-equipped with its head restraint, because the latter is connected to the backrest by at least an electrical cable (for example connected to built-in speakers). In this case, the headrest must be electrically connected to the backrest in order to guarantee electrical continuity and to avoid stains and additional operations on the assembly line.
La présence d'un tel appui-tête contraint la personne qui utilise le dispositif de manipulation à incliner l'ensemble de fixation avec le siège pour les faire passer dans l'entrée de porte sans endommager le joint périphérique de porte. L'angle d'inclinaison, qui est typiquement compris entre 45° et 50°, contraint la personne à exercer un effort de remontée sur la partie basse du siège pour le faire pivoter avec l'ensemble de fixation, puis à maintenir incliné l'ensemble de fixation avec le siège en même temps qu'il déplace le portique pour faire pénétrer ces derniers dans l'habitacle. Cet effort de remontée revient à porter une charge d'environ 13 kg, ce qui n'est pas ergonomique et s'avère fatiguant, en particulier en cas de nombreuses répétitions dans une même journée.The presence of such a headrest forces the person who uses the handling device to tilt the assembly for fixing with the seat in order to pass them through the doorway without damaging the peripheral door seal. The angle of inclination, which is typically between 45° and 50°, forces the person to exert a lifting force on the lower part of the seat to make it pivot with the fixing assembly, then to keep the seat tilted fixing assembly with the seat at the same time as it moves the gantry to make them penetrate into the passenger compartment. This lifting effort amounts to carrying a load of approximately 13 kg, which is not ergonomic and proves tiring, in particular in the event of numerous repetitions in the same day.
L'invention a donc notamment pour but d'améliorer la situation.The object of the invention is therefore in particular to improve the situation.
Elle propose notamment à cet effet un dispositif de manipulation, d'une part, destiné à permettre la manipulation par une personne d'un équipement devant être introduit en biais dans un système, et, d'autre part, comprenant une pièce de support destinée à être suspendue à proximité du système et à laquelle est couplé un ensemble de fixation auquel est destiné à être temporairement fixé l'équipement dans une position d'attente.It proposes in particular for this purpose a manipulation device, on the one hand, intended to allow the manipulation by a person of equipment to be introduced at an angle into a system, and, on the other hand, comprising a support part intended to be suspended close to the system and to which is coupled a fixing assembly to which the equipment is intended to be temporarily fixed in a standby position.
Ce dispositif de manipulation se caractérise par le fait :
- qu'il comprend un rail curviligne solidarisé fixement à l'ensemble de fixation et comprenant une poignée de manipulation, et
- que sa pièce de support comprend une glissière curviligne dans laquelle est monté à coulissement le rail curviligne afin, lorsque la personne fait coulisser ce dernier au moyen de la poignée de manipulation, de le faire passer d'une position initiale à une position finale dans laquelle l'équipement est dans une position déportée et inclinée adaptée à son introduction en biais dans le système.
- that it comprises a curvilinear rail fixedly secured to the fixing assembly and comprising a handling handle, and
- that its support part comprises a curvilinear slide in which the curvilinear rail is slidably mounted in order, when the person slides the latter by means of the handling handle, to do so move from an initial position to a final position in which the equipment is in an offset and inclined position suitable for its introduction at an angle into the system.
Ainsi, la personne n'a plus à exercer d'effort de remontée sur la partie basse du siège pour le faire pivoter avec l'ensemble de fixation, et d'effort pour maintenir incliné l'ensemble de fixation avec le siège.Thus, the person no longer has to exert a lifting force on the lower part of the seat to make it pivot with the fastening assembly, and any effort to keep the fastening assembly inclined with the seat.
Le dispositif de manipulation selon l'invention peut comporter d'autres caractéristiques qui peuvent être prises séparément ou en combinaison, et notamment :
- dans sa position initiale l'ensemble de fixation peut être destiné à maintenir l'équipement dans une position d'attente verticale ;
- dans sa position finale l'ensemble de fixation peut être destiné à maintenir l'équipement dans une position déportée et inclinée d'un angle compris entre 30° et 60° par rapport à la position d'attente ;
- son rail curviligne peut comprendre une encoche. Dans ce cas, sa glissière peut comprendre une protubérance destinée à être logée dans cette encoche lorsque le rail curviligne est dans sa position finale, afin de maintenir le rail curviligne dans cette position finale ;
- ➢ l'encoche peut être définie dans une partie de la poignée de manipulation ;
- en variante, sa glissière peut comprendre une encoche. Dans ce cas, son rail curviligne peut comprendre une protubérance destinée à être logée dans cette encoche lorsque le rail curviligne est dans sa position finale, afin de maintenir le rail curviligne dans cette position finale ;
- ➢ la protubérance peut être définie dans une partie de la poignée de manipulation ;
- sa glissière peut comprendre une face latérale munie d'une poignée de maintien permettant à la personne de maintenir la pièce de support dans une position fixe pendant le coulissement du rail curviligne.
- in its initial position, the fixing assembly may be intended to hold the equipment in a vertical standby position;
- in its final position, the fixing assembly may be intended to hold the equipment in an offset position and inclined at an angle of between 30° and 60° relative to the standby position;
- its curvilinear rail may include a notch. In this case, its slide may include a protrusion intended to be housed in this notch when the curvilinear rail is in its final position, in order to maintain the curvilinear rail in this final position;
- ➢ the notch can be defined in part of the handling handle;
- as a variant, its slide may comprise a notch. In this case, its curvilinear rail may comprise a protrusion intended to be housed in this notch when the curvilinear rail is in its final position, in order to maintain the curvilinear rail in this final position;
- ➢ the protrusion can be defined in part of the handling handle;
- its slide may include a side face provided with a grab handle allowing the person to hold the support piece in a fixed position during the sliding of the curvilinear rail.
Un dispositif de manipulation du type de celui présenté ci-avant peut être utilisé pour manipuler un équipement constituant un siège afin de l'introduire en biais dans un système constituant un véhicule. Par exemple, cet équipement peut constituer un siège avant comprenant un dossier comportant un appui-tête raccordé à au moins un câble, et ce véhicule peut être de type automobile.A manipulation device of the type presented above can be used to manipulate equipment constituting a seat in order to introduce it obliquely into a system constituting a vehicle. For example, this equipment can constitute a front seat comprising a backrest comprising a headrest connected to at least one cable, and this vehicle can be of the automobile type.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à l'examen de la description détaillée ci-après, et des dessins annexés, sur lesquels :

L'invention a notamment pour but de proposer un dispositif de manipulation 1 destiné à permettre la manipulation par une personne d'un équipement devant être introduit en biais dans un système.The object of the invention is in particular to propose a manipulation device 1 intended to allow the manipulation by a person of equipment to be introduced at an angle into a system.
Dans ce qui suit, on considère, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, que l'équipement constitue un siège devant être introduit en biais dans un système constituant un véhicule. Mais l'invention n'est limitée ni à ce type d'équipement, ni à ce type de système.In what follows, it is considered, by way of non-limiting example, that the equipment constitutes a seat to be introduced at an angle into a system constituting a vehicle. However, the invention is not limited either to this type of equipment or to this type of system.
Par ailleurs, on considère dans ce qui suit, à titre d'exemple non limitatif, que le véhicule est de type automobile. Il s'agit par exemple d'une voiture. Mais l'invention n'est pas limitée à ce type de véhicule. Elle concerne en effet tout type de véhicule comportant au moins une porte donnant accès à un habitacle et par laquelle doit être introduit en biais au moins un siège. Par conséquent, l'invention concerne au moins les véhicules terrestres (et notamment les véhicules automobiles, les véhicules utilitaires, les engins de voirie, les camions, les cars (ou bus), les engins de chantier et les engins tout terrain), certains bateaux, et certains aéronefs.Furthermore, it is considered in what follows, by way of non-limiting example, that the vehicle is of the automobile type. This is for example a car. But the invention is not limited to this type of vehicle. It relates in fact to any type of vehicle comprising at least one door giving access to a passenger compartment and through which at least one seat must be introduced at an angle. Consequently, the invention relates at least to land vehicles (and in particular motor vehicles, commercial vehicles, road construction machinery, trucks, coaches (or buses), construction machinery and all-terrain machinery ), certain boats, and some aircraft.

L'ensemble de fixation 4 est destiné à permettre la fixation temporaire d'un équipement, devant être introduit en biais dans le système (ici via un passage de porte de véhicule), dans une position d'attente.

Cette solidarisation fixe peut se faire par soudage ou par boulonnage, par exemple.The

Cette pièce de support 2 comprend une glissière 7 curviligne dans laquelle est monté à coulissement le rail curviligne 3. Ainsi, l'ensemble de fixation est couplé à la pièce de support 2 via le rail curviligne 3.This
La courbure de la glissière 7 est identique à celle du rail curviligne 3, même si la longueur de ce dernier (3) est de préférence notablement plus importante que celle de la glissière 7. Grâce à cet agencement, lorsque la personne fait coulisser le rail curviligne 3 par rapport à la glissière 7, au moyen de la poignée de manipulation 5, le rail curviligne 3 passe d'une position initiale (illustrée sur la
On comprendra que le secteur angulaire sur lequel s'étend le rail curviligne 3 est fonction de l'angle d'inclinaison que doit avoir l'équipement dans sa position déportée et inclinée pour pouvoir être introduit facilement dans le système.It will be understood that the angular sector over which the
Grâce à l'invention, la personne n'a donc plus à exercer d'effort de remontée sur la partie basse du siège pour le faire pivoter avec l'ensemble de fixation, et d'effort pour maintenir incliné l'ensemble de fixation avec le siège. Il doit cependant exercer un effort au moyen de la poignée de manipulation 5 pour faire passer le rail curviligne 3 de sa position initiale à sa position finale, mais cet effort est notablement plus faible et beaucoup plus ergonomique que l'effort de remontée de l'art antérieur. Par ailleurs, une fois que le rail curviligne 3 se retrouve dans sa position finale (illustrée sur la

Par exemple, lorsque le rail curviligne 3 est dans sa position finale l'ensemble de fixation 4 peut être destiné à maintenir l'équipement dans une position déportée et inclinée d'un angle compris entre 30° et 60° par rapport à la position d'attente. De tels exemples d'angle d'inclinaison sont bien adaptés au cas où l'équipement est un siège avant équipé d'un appui-tête connecté par voie filaire au dossier.For example, when the

Dans un second mode de réalisation (non illustré), la glissière 7 peut comprendre une encoche, et le rail curviligne 3 peut comprendre une protubérance destinée à être logée dans cette encoche lorsque le rail curviligne 3 est dans sa position finale, afin de maintenir le rail curviligne 3 dans cette position finale. Avec un tel agencement, lorsque la personne fait coulisser le rail curviligne 3 depuis sa position initiale jusqu'à sa position finale, au moment où le rail curviligne 3 parvient dans cette position finale la protubérance pénètre dans l'encoche et donc le rail curviligne 3 se retrouve immobilisé dans sa position finale par rapport à la glissière 7 (et donc par rapport à la pièce de support 2).In a second embodiment (not illustrated), the
Par exemple, et comme dans le premier mode de réalisation, la protubérance peut présenter une forme de dent de scie (sensiblement triangulaire), et dans ce cas l'encoche présente une forme triangulaire sensiblement homologue à celle de la protubérance pour la loger.For example, and as in the first embodiment, the protuberance may have the shape of a sawtooth (substantially triangular), and in this case the notch has a triangular shape substantially homologous to that of the protuberance to accommodate it.
Egalement par exemple, la protubérance peut être définie dans une partie de la poignée de manipulation 5. Cette partie peut être située sur l'une des deux liaisons entre le rail curviligne 3 et la poignée de manipulation 5.Also for example, the protuberance can be defined in a part of the
