Abstract

Protection against inclement weather, for a motorised lightweight vehicle having a seat with a large suspension travel for which protection a roof 57 forming a rain shield is securely fastened to the seat 16 and a windscreen 62 is securely fastened to the roof 57 by its upper part and to the chassis 41 of the vehicle by its lower part, the curvature of the windscreen 62 changing automatically as a function of the suspension travel of the seat 16.

Description

La présente invention concerne une protection contre les intempéries pour véhicule léger motorisé ayant un siège suspendu à grande course de suspension, vehicule comme dXcrit,par exemple, dans la demande de brevet NO 86 04030 le 19 Mars 1986.The present invention relates to weather protection for a light motorized vehicle having a suspended seat with a large suspension travel, vehicle as dXcrit, for example, in patent application NO 86 04030 on March 19, 1986.

A cet éffet, un toit formant parapluie est solidaire du siège suspendu et un pare-brise en plastique déformable, de préférence en polycarbonate, est solidaire du toit par sa partie supérieure et du châssis du véhicule par sa partie inférieure, les parties supérieure et inférieure du pare-brise étant articulee chacune selon un axe sensiblement parallèle à l'axe de rotation des roues arrières; la partie supérieure est articulée par rapport au toit et la partie inférieure est articulée par rapport au châssis, le galbe du pare-brise variant en fonction de la hauteur du siege suspendu par rapport au châssis du véhicule.Le siège étant en position haute, donc non chargé, le galbe est suffisament prononcé vers l'avant pour permettre de tourner le guidon sans heurter le pare-brise; lorsque le siège est en position basse, donc avec charge maximum, le galbe du pare-brise vers l'avant est considérablement augmenté. Les articulations supérieures du parebrise par rapport au toit sont situées sous le toit, légè- rement en arrière par rapport au bord avant du toit.To this end, an umbrella-shaped roof is secured to the suspended seat and a deformable plastic windshield, preferably made of polycarbonate, is secured to the roof by its upper part and to the vehicle chassis by its lower part, the upper and lower parts. the windscreen being each articulated along an axis substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the rear wheels; the upper part is articulated with respect to the roof and the lower part is articulated with respect to the chassis, the curve of the windscreen varying according to the height of the suspended seat relative to the chassis of the vehicle. The seat being in the high position, therefore unloaded, the curve is sufficiently pronounced forward to allow turning the handlebars without hitting the windshield; when the seat is in the low position, therefore with maximum load, the curve of the front windscreen is considerably increased. The upper articulations of the windscreen with respect to the roof are located under the roof, slightly behind with respect to the front edge of the roof.

Les figures ci annexées représentent à titre indicatif et non limitatif un trois roues léger motorisé équipé d' un coffre avec siège suspendu intégré conforme à la demande de brevet 86 04030 et d'une protection contre les intempéries conforme à la présente invention.The attached figures show by way of non-limiting illustration a light motorized three-wheeler equipped with a trunk with integrated suspended seat in accordance with patent application 86 04030 and with weather protection in accordance with the present invention.

La figure 1 est une vue latérale du trois roues motorisé avec, en traits pleins, le siège, le toit et le pare-brise en position haute et en traits pointillés, le siège,le toit et le pare-brise en position siège chargé, donc en position basse; la Partie supérieure est coupée selon plan I,I,I de la figure 2.FIG. 1 is a side view of the motorized three wheel with, in solid lines, the seat, the roof and the windshield in the high position and in dotted lines, the seat, the roof and the windshield in the loaded seat position, therefore in the low position; the upper part is cut along plane I, I, I of FIG. 2.

La figure 2 est une vue de face du trois roues léger motorisé avec le siège, le toit et le pare-brise en position haute donc non chargée; des coupes partielles montrent les articulations de la partie supérieure du pare-brise par rapport au toit.Figure 2 is a front view of the light motorized three wheel with the seat, the roof and the windshield in the high position therefore unloaded; partial sections show the joints of the upper part of the windscreen with respect to the roof.

La figure 3 est une-vUe latérale de l'articulation de la partie basse du pare-brise par rapport au châssis.Figure 3 is a side view of the articulation of the lower part of the windshield relative to the chassis.

La figure 4 est une vue de face ae l'articulation de la partie basse du pare-brise par rapport au châssis.Figure 4 is a front view of the articulation of the lower part of the windshield relative to the chassis.

40 est la roue avant directrice, 41 est la partie du ch^assis dans laquelle la colonne de direction 42 est centrée, 43 est le guipon. 44 et 45 sont les roues arrières dont 46 et 47- sont les .xes de rotation, s'il n'y a pas de suspension inuéanuante pour les roues arrières 44 et 45, les axes Je rotation 46 et 47 sont généralement coaxiaux.40 is the front steering wheel, 41 is the part of the seat in which the steering column 42 is centered, 43 is the handlebar. 44 and 45 are the rear wheels, 46 and 47 of which are the rotation axes, if there is no inuating suspension for the rear wheels 44 and 45, the axes of rotation 46 and 47 are generally coaxial.

23 et 26 sont les couvercles lu coure 43 cji est indirectement solidaire du châssis 4.D,4i dans lequel le moteur 50 est fixe. Le siège 16 avec son support 13, 14,i5 dont les tubes 17,18 sont solidaires, est centré dans les ressorts 17,18 eux même centrés dans les tubes 9,10 qui sont solidaires du coffre 48. Les accoudoirs 51,52 avec la traverse 53 sont solidaires du siège 16.23 and 26 are the covers read cour 43 cji is indirectly secured to the chassis 4.D, 4i in which the motor 50 is fixed. The seat 16 with its support 13, 14, i5 whose tubes 17,18 are integral, is centered in the springs 17,18 themselves centered in the tubes 9,10 which are integral with the trunk 48. The armrests 51,52 with the cross member 53 is integral with the seat 16.

Les deux colonnes 54,55 sont solidaires à la fois du siège 16 et des accoudoires 51,52. Les extrémités supérieures des colonnes 54,55 sont solidaires du cadre 56 du toit 57 qui a les rabats 58,59. La partie inférieure des rabats 58,59 peut comporter, d'une manière connue, des goutières qui ne sont pas représentées. Les entretoises 60,61 relient le cadre 56 aux accoudoirs 51,52 pour rigidifier la position du cadre 56 par rapport au siège 16.The two columns 54,55 are integral with both the seat 16 and the armrests 51,52. The upper ends of the columns 54,55 are integral with the frame 56 of the roof 57 which has the flaps 58,59. The lower part of the flaps 58, 59 may comprise, in a known manner, gutters which are not shown. The spacers 60,61 connect the frame 56 to the armrests 51,52 to stiffen the position of the frame 56 relative to the seat 16.

I1 est évident que si le toit 57 n'est pas fait en tissus imperméable souple mais en plastique rigide ou en tole, le cadre 56-et le Toit 57 avec ses rabats 58,59 ne forment qu'une seule et unique pièce. It is obvious that if the roof 57 is not made of flexible waterproof fabrics but of rigid plastic or sheet metal, the frame 56 and the roof 57 with its flaps 58, 59 form only one single piece.

Le pare-brise 62 est en plastique élastique, de préférence en polycarbonate,qui tout en étant relativement rigide, est facilement déformable. A sa partie supérieure, la plaque 62 du pare-brise est coincée entre deux bandes rigides 63, de préférence métalliques, qui comportent deux articulations coaxiales 65,66 solidaires du cadre de toit 56 et dont ltaxe commun est sensiblement parallèle aux axes 46,47 des roues arrières 44,45. A sa partie inférieure la plaque 62du pare-brise est coincée entre deux bandes rigides 64, de préférence métalliques, qui comportent dans leur partie médiane, une articulation 67 qui est représentée à titre indicatif en détail sur les figures 3 et 4. L'articulation 67 pince, à l'aide des boulons 68,69 le tube 70 dont le diamètre intérieur est identique au diamètre des trous correspondants des chappes 71,72 qui sont solidaires de la partie 41 du châssis du véhicule. L'axe 73 qui est arrèté par la goupille 74 est sensiblement parallele aux axes 46,47 des roues arrières 44,45. I1 est aisé de voir que, lorsque le siège i6, par les variations de charges écrase les ressorts 11 et 12, les articulations 65,66 et 67 permettent au pare-brise 62 de modifier son galbe pour s'adapter automatiquement à la hauteur du siège 16 par rapport au châssis 41,49 du véhicule. The windshield 62 is made of elastic plastic, preferably polycarbonate, which, while being relatively rigid, is easily deformable. At its upper part, the plate 62 of the windshield is wedged between two rigid strips 63, preferably metallic, which have two coaxial articulations 65,66 integral with the roof frame 56 and whose common axis is substantially parallel to the axes 46,47 rear wheels 44,45. At its lower part, the plate 62 of the windshield is wedged between two rigid strips 64, preferably metallic, which comprise in their median part, a joint 67 which is shown for information in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4. The joint 67 clamp, using the bolts 68,69 the tube 70 whose internal diameter is identical to the diameter of the corresponding holes of the caps 71,72 which are integral with the part 41 of the vehicle chassis. The axis 73 which is stopped by the pin 74 is substantially parallel to the axes 46,47 of the rear wheels 44,45. I1 is easy to see that, when the seat i6, by the load variations crushes the springs 11 and 12, the articulations 65, 66 and 67 allow the windshield 62 to modify its curve to automatically adapt to the height of the seat 16 relative to the chassis 41,49 of the vehicle.
