Abstract
Description
L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de fabrication d'un tapis de sol à talonnette destine à un véhicule automobile et qui est combiné à un contacteur intercalé dans un circuit électrique tel celui de déclencherient d'une alarme visuelle et/ou sonore ou contrôlant l'alimentation électrique du moteur. The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a heel mat for a motor vehicle and which is combined with a contactor interposed in an electrical circuit such as that to trigger a visual and / or audible alarm or controlling the motor power supply.
Elle se rapporte également au tapis de sol ainsi obtenu. It also relates to the floor mat thus obtained.
A ce jour, on connait (FR-A-2.148.063, 2.121.588, 2.159.471) des tapis de sol conprenant un flan en matériau de revêtement de sol découpé selon le contour souhaité et qui, pour sa combinaison à un contacteur, est simplement posé sur le dit contacteur qui couvre sensiblement la même surface. To date, we know (FR-A-2.148.063, 2.121.588, 2.159.471) floor mats comprising a blank of floor covering material cut according to the desired contour and which, for its combination with a contactor , is simply placed on said contactor which covers substantially the same surface.
Par exemple, ce contacteur est constitué de deux plaques conductrices d'une part écartées l'une de l'autre par une grille en materiau elastiquement compressible et, d'autre part, reliées chacune à l'une des bornes d'un circuit. For example, this contactor consists of two conductive plates on the one hand spaced from one another by a grid of elastically compressible material and, on the other hand, each connected to one of the terminals of a circuit.
Sous la pression du pied qui s'exerce sur le tapis, la plaque supérieure du contacteur se déforme et la grille se comprime ; les deux plaques parviennent alors localement à se toucher et à fermer le circuit. Under the pressure of the foot which is exerted on the carpet, the upper plate of the contactor deforms and the grid compresses; the two plates then locally manage to touch and close the circuit.
Comme déclencheur d'alarme anti-vol, un tel ensemble est peu efficace car, le voleur qui est bien sur prudent, prendra la précaution de soulever le bord du tapis avant de passer dessus et, simplement placé sous le tapis, le contacteur sera alors aussitôt remarqué par l'intrus qui pourra prévoir la parade. As an anti-theft alarm trigger, such an assembly is not very effective because, the thief who is of course careful, will take the precaution of lifting the edge of the carpet before going over it and, simply placed under the carpet, the contactor will then immediately noticed by the intruder who can plan the parade.
Aussi, ce type de contact est-il plutôt réserve à d'autres usages tels le déclenchement d'une porte automatique ou de l'eclairage d'un ascenseur. Also, this type of contact is rather reserved for other uses such as the triggering of an automatic door or the lighting of an elevator.
On connatt également des tapis de sol (FR-A-2.559.614) qui, pour leur combinaison à un contacteur, comprennent, noyee dans l'épaisseur au moins du bord de leur flan en revetement de sol, l'une des plaques du contacteur mais cela ne suffit pas à cacher tout le contacteur. We also know floor mats (FR-A-2,559,614) which, for their combination with a contactor, include, embedded in the thickness at least of the edge of their blank in floor covering, one of the plates of the contactor but that is not enough to hide the whole contactor.
En outre, cette forme est applicable seulement dans le cas où le flan de revetement de sol est en matériau moulé tel un elastomère alors que la préférence de la clientèle va vers un matériau textile naturel ou artificiel tel de la moquette et que, tout au plus, la clientèle accepte le matériau moulé pour la partie de renforcement qui lui est rapportee et communément dénommée talonnette. In addition, this form is applicable only in the case where the floor covering is made of molded material such as an elastomer, while customer preference is for a natural or artificial textile material such as carpet and that, at most , the clientele accepts the molded material for the reinforcement part which is attached to it and commonly known as a heel piece.
Quoiqu'il en soit 1' intéqration au matériau élastomère s'avère complexe à réaliser et onéreux. Whatever the case, the integration into the elastomeric material proves to be complex to carry out and expensive.
Par ailleurs, ces tapis et contacteurs couvrant tous deux sensi bl enent la même surface doivent exister en autant de modèle qu'il y a de modèles de logement pour les recevoir et notamment étant destine à l'automobile en autant de nodèl es qu'il y a de marques et de types de véhicules ce qui complique la fabrication et majore le prix de revient. In addition, these carpets and contactors, both covering the same surface, must exist in as many models as there are housing models to receive them, and in particular being intended for the automobile in as many models as there are. There are brands and types of vehicles which complicates manufacturing and increases the cost price.
Un des résultats que l'invention vise à obtenir est un tapis de sol du type cité plus haut qui soit simple et peu couteux à fabriquer et dont néanmoins le contacteur soit suffisamment discret pour permettre son usage fiable dans un dispositif antivol. One of the results that the invention aims to obtain is a floor mat of the type mentioned above which is simple and inexpensive to manufacture and whose contactor is nevertheless discreet enough to allow its reliable use in an anti-theft device.
Est également un résultat de l'invention, un tel tapis dont tant sa talonnette que son élément principal peut etre en tout matériau connu et notamment en matériau textile. Is also a result of the invention, such a mat including both its heel and its main element can be of any known material and in particular of textile material.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un procédé de fabrication d'un tel tapis de sol pour véhicule automobile notamment caractérisé en ce qu'on prépare un contacteur de surface sensiblement égale à celle de la seule talonnette et on insere ce contacteur entre la talonnette et le flan de revêtement puis on associe le contacteur à l'ensemble par la fixation de la talonnette au flan. To this end, the subject of the invention is a method of manufacturing such a floor mat for a motor vehicle, in particular characterized in that a contactor is prepared with an area substantially equal to that of the sole heel piece and this contactor is inserted between the heel and the covering blank then the contactor is associated with the assembly by fixing the heel to the blank.
L'invention a également pour objet le tapis de sol obtenu à l'aide de ce procédé. The subject of the invention is also the floor mat obtained using this method.
Elle sera bien comprise a l'aide de la description ci-apres faite à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard du dessin ci-annexe qui représente schématiquement
- ficure 1 : le tapis vu de dessus,
- figure 2 : le tapis en cours de fabrication,
- figure 3 : le schéma du circuit auquel est raccordé le tapis.It will be clearly understood with the aid of the description below given by way of nonlimiting example with regard to the attached drawing which schematically represents
- figure 1: the carpet seen from above,
- Figure 2: the carpet during manufacture,
- Figure 3: the circuit diagram to which the carpet is connected.
se se re?ortant au dessin, on voit que le tapis comprend un flan 1 de revêtement de sol tel un matériau textile comme par exemple de la mouette ou en matériau moulé tel un élastomère dont le pourtour 2 est adapte aux contours du plancher d'une marque et d'un type de véhicule. referring to the drawing, we see that the carpet comprises a blanket 1 of floor covering such as a textile material such as a seagull or a molded material such as an elastomer whose periphery 2 is adapted to the contours of the floor a make and type of vehicle.
S'agissant du tupis destiné être posé du côté du conducteur, il comporte en outre de manière classique une talonnette 3 de renfort posée en bonne place sur le dessus du flan 1 de revéterent de sol auquel elle est fixée par tout moyen connu tel que soudure, collage ou, de préférence, couture. With regard to the tupis intended to be placed on the driver's side, it furthermore conventionally comprises a heel piece 3 of reinforcement placed in good position on the top of the blank 1 of floor covering to which it is fixed by any known means such as welding. , collage or, preferably, sewing.
La talonnette qui est destinée à éviter l'usure prématurée du tapis à l'endroit où le conducteur est obligé de poser les pieds est fabriquée en tout matériau connnu et de préférence en matériau imperméable et avec une surface supérieure anti-darapante. The heel which is intended to prevent premature wear of the carpet at the place where the driver is forced to put the feet is made of any known material and preferably of waterproof material and with a non-skid top surface.
Ce tapis peut faire partie d'un ensemble de deux ou quatre tapis équipant au moins l'avant du véhicule. This mat can be part of a set of two or four mats fitted to at least the front of the vehicle.
Le contacteur 4 est de tout type connu et, par exemple, constitué de deux plaques conductrices d'une part écartées l'une de l'autre par une grille en matériau élastiquement compressible et, d'autre part, portant chacune une borne 5, 6 de branchement d'une cosse 7, 8 de raccordement de chacun des tronçons 9, 10 d'un circuit 11 dont par exemple
-l'un 9 des tronçons est relié à la borne positive 12 de la batterie 13 du véhicule en passant par un interrupteur 14, par eenple clef, la borne négative 15 de la batterie 13 étant reliée à la masse 16 tendis que
- l'autre tronçon 10 est quant à lui relié à la dite masse 16 par l'intermédiaire de l'appareil 17, à commander à l'aide du contacteur 4, tel une alarme visuelle et/ou sonore ou un rupteur du circuit de commande du véhicule.The contactor 4 is of any known type and, for example, consists of two conductive plates on the one hand spaced from one another by a grid of elastically compressible material and, on the other hand, each carrying a terminal 5, 6 for connecting a terminal 7, 8 for connecting each of the sections 9, 10 of a circuit 11, for example
one of the sections is connected to the positive terminal 12 of the battery 13 of the vehicle by passing through a switch 14, by key, the negative terminal 15 of the battery 13 being connected to earth 16 tensioned as
- The other section 10 is in turn connected to said earth 16 via the device 17, to be controlled using the contactor 4, such as a visual and / or audible alarm or a circuit breaker. vehicle control.
Au lieu que le contacteur soit simplement placé sous le tapis ou tout au plus ait l'une de ses plaques qui ait ses bords noyes dans le flan de revêtement de sol, selon une caractéristique de l'invention, on prépare un contacteur 4 de surface sensiblement écale à celle de la seule talonnette 3 et on insère ce contacteur 4 entre la talonnette 3 et le flan 1 de revêtement puis on associe le contacteur 4 à l'ensemble par la fixation de la talonnette 3 au flan 1. Instead of the contactor being simply placed under the carpet or at most having one of its plates which has its edges embedded in the floor covering blank, according to a characteristic of the invention, a surface contactor 4 is prepared substantially shelled to that of the single heel piece 3 and this contactor 4 is inserted between the heel piece 3 and the covering blank 1 then the contactor 4 is associated with the assembly by fixing the heel piece 3 to the blank 1.
La faible épaisseur du contacteur 4 le rend imperceptible sous la talonnette 3 et n'altère en rien la qualité de protection du tapis. The small thickness of the contactor 4 makes it imperceptible under the heel 3 and does not affect the quality of protection of the carpet.
Malgré sa surface réduite, ce contacteur 4 s'avere tout a fait fiable contenu de l'oblisation fait au conducteur de poser les pieds sur la talonnette 3 pour conduire le véhicule. Despite its reduced surface area, this contactor 4 proves to be entirely reliable content of the obliteration made for the driver to put his feet on the heel 3 to drive the vehicle.
En soulevant le bord du tapis, le contacteur 4 reste en toute hypothèse i;;iperceptible. By lifting the edge of the mat, the switch 4 remains in any case i ;; iperceptible.
De plus le contacteur peut lui -même être souple pour éviter qu'une raideur locale éveille les craintes d'un voleur. In addition, the contactor can itself be flexible to prevent a local stiffness arousing the fears of a thief.
Du fait du procédé de fabrication, le contacteur a comme la talonnette une forme standardisée indépendante de la marque et du type du véhicule, seul le flan ayant à être adapté à la Ilarque et au type du véhicule ce qui peut aisément être réalisé même par l'utilisateur. Due to the manufacturing process, the contactor has like the heel a standardized shape independent of the brand and type of vehicle, only the blank having to be adapted to the Ilarque and to the type of vehicle which can easily be achieved even by 'user.
Avant fixation de la talonnette 3 sur le flan 1, le dit flan 1 est perSe d'un orifice 18 dans lequel on fait passer les fils matérialisant les tronçons 9, 10 du circuit 11 que l'on raccorde aux bornes 5, 6 du contacteur. Before fixing the heel piece 3 on the blank 1, the said blank 1 is pierced with an orifice 18 in which the wires materializing the sections 9, 10 of the circuit 11 are passed, which are connected to the terminals 5, 6 of the contactor .
Le tapis 19 obtenu à l'aide de ce procédé est lui-même caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend un contacteur 4 de surface sensiblement égale à celle de la talonnette 3 et intercalé entre cette talonnette 3 et le flan 1. The mat 19 obtained using this method is itself characterized in that it comprises a contactor 4 with a surface substantially equal to that of the heel piece 3 and interposed between this heel piece 3 and the blank 1.
Le tapis comprend en outre sous la talonnette 3 un orifice 1S de passage des fils connectés au contacteur 4. The belt also comprises under the heel 3 a hole 1S for the passage of the wires connected to the contactor 4.
