Abstract

The invention relates to a device making it possible to protect the various diameter spare wheels from wear due to the support cradle in which these wheels are housed under the back of the vehicle, as well as from soiling and damp in general. It consists of a base made from a friction-resistant material 1, of a side wall 2, and of an upper cap 3 made from an elastic synthetic cloth allowing it to fit the various diameters of wheel, and of a zip fastener 4 located at the connection of the side wall 2 and of the cap 3 for installing the wheel inside the device.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant de protéger de la salissure et de l'usure les roues de secours des voitures automobiles lorsque les dites roues se trouvent logées à l'extérieur, dans un berceau situé sous la partie arrière du véhicule.DESCRIPTION
The present invention relates to a device making it possible to protect the spare wheels of motor cars from soiling and wear when the said wheels are housed outside, in a cradle located under the rear part of the vehicle.

Il existe actuellement des housses ouvertes qui sont le plus souvent en matières synthéthiques imperméables, adaptées à une seule dimension de roue et dont le maintien est assuré par la présence d'un élastique circulaire à la périphérie de l'ouverture (ex. : véhicules tous terrains). There are currently open covers which are most often made of waterproof synthetic materials, suitable for a single dimension of wheel and whose maintenance is ensured by the presence of a circular elastic band at the periphery of the opening (e.g. vehicles all land).

Il est à noter que cette ouverture et l'imperméabilité du matériau constituant ce type de housse favorise l'entrée et la stagnation de l'humidité d'ou une inadaptation dans le cas qui nous intéresse. It should be noted that this opening and the impermeability of the material constituting this type of cover favors the entry and stagnation of moisture or an unsuitability in the case which interests us.

Ce problème de la stagnation de l'humidité dûe en partie au matériau constituant se retrouve également dans le "sac à roue de secours" qui est, lui, simplement un grand sac en matières synthétiques fermé à l'aide d'un cordon. This problem of the stagnation of humidity due in part to the constituent material is also found in the "spare wheel bag" which is itself simply a large synthetic bag closed with a cord.

La housse fermée selon l'invention permet de protéger la roue d'une façon efficace des projections et salissures diverses tout en maintenant une ventilation par une perméabilité restreinte. Elle évite également au pneumatique de subir l'usure occasionnée par le frottement du berçeau métallique de soutien. Enfin, l'élasticité bi-dimensionnelle d'un des matériaux qui la composent la rend adaptable à toute la gamme des pneumatiques de dimensions usuelles. The closed cover according to the invention makes it possible to effectively protect the wheel from various splashes and dirt while maintaining ventilation by a restricted permeability. It also prevents the tire from being subject to wear caused by the friction of the metal support cradle. Finally, the two-dimensional elasticity of one of the materials that compose it makes it adaptable to the whole range of tires of usual dimensions.

La figure 1 représente en coupe la housse selon l'invention. Figure 1 shows in section the cover according to the invention.

La figure 2 représente la housse vue de dessus. Figure 2 shows the cover seen from above.

La figure 3 représente la housse en service et mise en place dans son berceau sous le véhicule. Figure 3 shows the cover in use and placed in its cradle under the vehicle.

Cette housse, de forme globalement cylindrique, est constituée de quatre éléments principaux (voir figure 1). This cover, generally cylindrical in shape, is made up of four main elements (see Figure 1).

L'élément (1) formant la base de la housse est réalisé dans un matériau résistant et souple (skaï, etc ...) ou rigide (matières plastiques par exemple) venant au contact du berceau et protégeant ainsi le pneumatique d'une usure prématurée (voir fig. 3). The element (1) forming the base of the cover is made of a resistant and flexible material (skai, etc.) or rigid (plastics for example) coming into contact with the cradle and thus protecting the tire from wear. premature (see fig. 3).

L'élément (2) formant la paroi latérale et 3'élément (3) la calotte supérieure (voir fig. 1) sont eux réalisés dans un tissu synthétique de type jersey LYCRA (marque déposée) qui autorise à la fois une grande élasticité, une protection contre les salissures et une ventilation efficace. The element (2) forming the side wall and 3 'element (3) the upper cap (see fig. 1) are made of a synthetic fabric type LYCRA jersey (registered trademark) which allows both great elasticity, protection against dirt and efficient ventilation.

Le quatrième élément est une fermeture à glissière en matière synthétique qui est disposée à la jonction des éléments 2 et 3 sur une longueur qui permet la mise en place aisée de la roue et qui laisse sur le périmètre une zone d'élasticité indispensable à l'adaptation aux différents diamètres de pneumatiques.  The fourth element is a zipper in synthetic material which is arranged at the junction of elements 2 and 3 over a length which allows the easy installation of the wheel and which leaves on the perimeter a zone of elasticity essential to the adaptation to different tire diameters.
