- the arms 44 have a sufficient thickness for the seat 46 to be rigid and not deform under the action of a tensile force.
- the free ends 44.2 do not require significant elasticity to allow the bosses to be clipped into the housings, but a slight flexion is available at the end of the arms.
- connection between the connecting portion P3 and the rod is made by flat surfaces 56 and the ends 44.2 of the arms have flat faces 57 in the XY plane intended to cooperate with the flat surfaces 56, which makes it possible to ensure a certain alignment between the two assembled parts, facilitating the introduction during assembly in the body of the dispenser.
- the parts approach each other they come to bear against each other by flat surfaces, which improves the compression strength of the assembly.
- the assembly process takes place as follows:

- the resistance in the Z direction both in compression and in tension is equivalent to that of the connection of FIGS. 2 and 3, but it has a slightly reduced hyperstatism.
- connecting device may comprise more than one intermediate portion.
- the male part M and the female part F are made of the same material, which makes it possible to obtain an assembly which does not change as a function of temperature.
- the male part and the female part are made of materials having thermal expansion coefficients that are close or equal.
- the material(s) chosen is or are little or not deformable on bending and exhibit low elasto-plastic deformations.

- PPS polyphenylene sulfide
- PESU polyethersulfones
- PEEK polyetheretherketone

- the connecting device according to the invention is particularly suitable for connecting the core of an electromagnetic actuator to a piston.
- the core is secured in the Z direction to the piston by the rod 34 which is itself secured in the Z direction with, on the one hand, the core and, on the other hand, the piston.
- the core has a tubular shape through which a bore 58 passes.
- the rod 34 shown alone in Figure 7, comprises at a first longitudinal end 34.1 clipping means 60 ensuring the attachment of the rod and the core and at a second longitudinal end 34.2 the male part M of the connecting device of Figures 2 and 3.
- the clipping means 60 comprise two tabs 62 parallel to the axis of the rod 34 and provided at their free end with outward radial extensions 64.
- the tabs 62 penetrate by one end of the bore of the core 30 approaching each other by elastic deformation, the rod 34 is moved axially in the bore until the radial extensions 64 emerge from the bore, allowing the legs to resume their initial shape and to ensure, with the radial extensions, an axial connection of the core and the stem.
- the rod 34 and the core are placed in the body of the actuator, for this the second end 34.2 carrying the male part is introduced into the body of the actuator and passes through a seal 65 mounted between a casing 67 of the actuator and a part 66 which closes the magnetic loop.
- Part 66 forms a seat for seal 65 and also provides the seat function for a spring 68 interposed between the core and part 66.
- Spring 68 is intended to serve as a return spring and is stressed in compression.
- the first piston 22 comprises at a first longitudinal end the female part F of the connecting device.
- the first piston 22 is configured to be connected to a second piston 24, its second end is then provided for connection to another piston.
- the first piston 22 is fixed to the rod 34 according to the steps described above, the female part F carried by the first piston 22 is approached laterally from the male part F carried by the rod 34 until the insertion of the bosses 50 in the housing 52.
- the spring 68 is then kept compressed in the body of the actuator and provides a return force in the direction Z so as to bring the piston closer to the casing 67 of the actuator, the flat faces carried by the free ends 44.2 of the arms 44 then cooperate with a flat face of the casing 67 of the actuator which ensures that the first piston remains aligned with the Z axis and facilitates the assembly of the second piston which will be mounted on the other end of the first piston.
- FIG. 1A a complete distributor can be seen comprising the second piston 24 and the first 72 and second 74 hydraulic casings.
- housing 72 When assembling the distributor, after securing the core to the first piston via rod 34, housing 72 is mounted around first piston 22 and is fixed, for example welded, to housing 67 of the actuator. Due to the maintenance aligned in the direction Z of the first piston, its passage through the first casing 72 is facilitated. Then the second piston 24 is secured to the second end of the first piston 22, for example by clipping.
- the first piston 22 is extended by a rod 76 provided with a head 77 of greater diameter than that of the rod 76, the head 77 defining with the rod 76 a first shoulder 78.
- the second piston 24 is crossed by a passage 80 and is provided, on the face opposite that facing the first piston 22, with two lugs 82 extending axially in the extension of the passage 80 and the free ends of which are intended to cooperate with the shoulder 78 by clipping.
- the rod 76 includes a second shoulder 84 downstream of the shoulder 78 in the direction of insertion of the piston on the rod 76 and facing the first shoulder 78.
- the axial position of the second shoulder is chosen so as to come resting against an axial end 86 of the second piston 24 on the face opposite to that bearing the lugs 82.
- the cooperation of the lugs and the first shoulder and the support of the axial end 86 and the second shoulder 84 ensure the axial immobilization of the second piston with respect to the first piston.
- the second shoulder is replaced by other clipping means cooperating with the axial end 86.
- the second piston 24 can comprise more than two legs 82, for example three legs or four legs.
- the head 77 enters the second piston, leaves the passage, slides between the lugs 82 which it deforms elastically. The head slides between the legs until it escapes from them. The lugs 82 return to their undeformed position and come to bear against the shoulder 78. Simultaneously the axial end 86 of the piston comes to bear against the second shoulder 84 ensuring axial immobilization of the second piston on the first piston.
- This assembly is also facilitated by the aligned position of the first piston. This assembly offers a very good hold because the legs are then stressed in compression by the hydraulic pressure which is exerted on the second piston downwards in the representation of FIG.
- the second casing 74 is fixed, for example welded to the first casing 72.
- the male part is carried by a rod. It will be understood that this can be carried by any part having a different shape. It is the same with the female part.
- means can be provided to immobilize the first piston in rotation around the axis Z relative to the rod 34 and the second piston relative to the first piston.
- the connecting device according to the invention can be applied to the assembly of all parts in an axial direction requiring increased tensile and compressive strength.
- the connecting device is suitable for the manufacture of any type of valve, in particular solenoid valves and any type of distributor. It is suitable for circuits hydraulics in the automotive field and more particularly to cooling circuits for the automotive field.
