En se reportant aux dessins, on peut voir un dispositif d'essuie-glace D pour pare-brise 1 de véhicule automobile. Referring to the drawings, one can see a wiper device D for windshield 1 of a motor vehicle.
Le dispositif D comprend un bras 2 d'essuie-glace porté par un support 3 monté sur un organe de guidage q s'étendant sensiblement parallèlement au grand côté inférieur du pare-brise 1. The device D comprises a wiper arm 2 carried by a support 3 mounted on a guide member q extending substantially parallel to the large lower side of the windshield 1.
L'organe de guidage g est constitué par un rail 4 s'étendant sur un seul côté du pare-brise, à savoir, dans l'exemple considéré, le grand côté inférieur, sensiblement horizontal. Le rail 4 est prévu au-dessous de ce côté. Comme visible sur la figure 3, le rail 4 est relativement large et présente une section transversale sensiblement rectangulaire. The guide member g consists of a rail 4 extending on one side of the windshield, namely, in the example considered, the large lower side, substantially horizontal. Rail 4 is provided below this side. As shown in Figure 3, the rail 4 is relatively wide and has a substantially rectangular cross section.
Les bords longitudinaux 4a, 4b du rail admettent une section en V tournant sa pointe vers l'extérieur. Le rail 4 a une forme en arc de cercle, de grand rayon, c'est-à-dire de faible courbure, dont la concavité est tournée vers le haut comme visible sur la figure 1.The longitudinal edges 4a, 4b of the rail have a V-shaped section turning its point outwards. The rail 4 has the shape of an arc of a circle, of large radius, that is to say of small curvature, the concavity of which is turned upwards as visible in FIG. 1.
Le rail 4 est fixé à un bati 5 par une potence 6 située vers une extrémité du rail, à savoir l'extrémité gauche selon la représentation de la figure 1. La potence est fixée contre la face de ce rail 4 éloignée du support 3.The rail 4 is fixed to a frame 5 by a bracket 6 situated towards one end of the rail, namely the left end according to the representation in FIG. 1. The bracket is fixed against the face of this rail 4 remote from the support 3.
Le plan moyen du rail 4 est sensiblement parallèle au plan moyen du pare-brise 1, comme visible sur la figure 3. The mean plane of the rail 4 is substantially parallel to the mean plane of the windshield 1, as can be seen in FIG. 3.
Le support 3 du bras est constitué par un chariot 7 pouvant coulisser le long du rail 4 tout en étant fermement maintenu sur ce rail. Ce chariot 7 est formé, par exemple, par une plaque 8 en forme de triangle isocèle située au-dessus du rail 4, du côté opposé à la potence 6, cette plaque 8 étant sensiblement parallèle au plan moyen du pare-brise 1. The support 3 of the arm is constituted by a carriage 7 which can slide along the rail 4 while being firmly held on this rail. This carriage 7 is formed, for example, by a plate 8 in the form of an isosceles triangle located above the rail 4, on the side opposite to the stem 6, this plate 8 being substantially parallel to the mean plane of the windshield 1.
Trois galets 9 sont montés rotatifs autour d'axes portés par la plaque 8, orthogonaux au plan moyen de cette plaque, vers chaque sommet du triangle. Three rollers 9 are rotatably mounted around axes carried by the plate 8, orthogonal to the mean plane of this plate, towards each vertex of the triangle.
Chaque galet 9 a une gorge 10 en V propre à coopérer avec les bords longitudinaux opposés 4a, 4b du rail 4.Each roller 9 has a V-shaped groove 10 suitable for cooperating with the opposite longitudinal edges 4a, 4b of the rail 4.
Deux galets 9 situés aux extrémités de la base du triangle isocèle coopèrent avec le bord 4a du rail le plus éloigné du pare-brise 1, tandis que l'autre galet 9 coopère avec l'autre bord 4b et est situé, suivant la direction longitudinale du rail, entre les deux premiers galets.Two rollers 9 located at the ends of the base of the isosceles triangle cooperate with the edge 4a of the rail furthest from the windshield 1, while the other roller 9 cooperates with the other edge 4b and is located, in the longitudinal direction of the rail, between the first two rollers.
La plaque 8 est située sous le capot 11 (voir figure 3) à un niveau inférieur à celui du pare-brise 1. Une patte 12 en forme de S est rigidement fixée sur la plaque 8 et traverse un espace 13 prévu entre le bord du capot 11 et le pare-brise, cette patte 12 portant à son extrémité extérieure un axe 14 sur lequel est bloqué à la manière d'un encastrement le bras 2, non représenté sur la figure 3. The plate 8 is located under the cover 11 (see FIG. 3) at a level lower than that of the windshield 1. An S-shaped tab 12 is rigidly fixed on the plate 8 and passes through a space 13 provided between the edge of the hood 11 and the windshield, this tab 12 carrying at its outer end a pin 14 on which the arm 2, which is not shown in FIG. 3, is locked in the manner of recessing.
Des moyens d'entrainement E du bras 2 en coulissement alternatif le long du rail de guidage 4 sont prévus et s'étendent sur le seul côté horizontal inférieur du pare-brise 1. Les moyens d'entrainement E comprennent un cable 15 formant une boucle fermée et une poulie 16 entrainée par un moto-réducteur 17 pour mettre le cable 15 en mouvement. Le moto-réducteur 17 et la poulie 16 sont situés vers une extrémité du côté inférieur du pare-brise, l'extrémité gauche selon la représentation de la figure 1. Vers l'autre extrémité du pare-brise est prévue une poulie de renvoi 18 autour de laquelle passe le cable 15. Un dispositif tendeur de cable 19 est prévu du côté de la poulie de renvoi 18. Le support 3 est lié au brin inférieur 15a du cable 15. Drive means E of the arm 2 in alternating sliding along the guide rail 4 are provided and extend on the single lower horizontal side of the windshield 1. The drive means E comprise a cable 15 forming a loop closed and a pulley 16 driven by a gear motor 17 to set the cable 15 in motion. The gear motor 17 and the pulley 16 are located towards one end of the lower side of the windshield, the left end as shown in Figure 1. Towards the other end of the windshield is provided a return pulley 18 around which the cable 15 passes. A cable tensioning device 19 is provided on the side of the return pulley 18. The support 3 is linked to the lower strand 15a of the cable 15.
Des moyens inverseurs 20, par exemple des micro-contacts, sont prévus pour être actionnés par le chariot 7, en fin de course dans chaque sens, et pour commander l'inversion du sens de rotation du motoréducteur 17. Reversing means 20, for example micro-contacts, are provided for being actuated by the carriage 7, at the end of the travel in each direction, and for controlling the reversal of the direction of rotation of the geared motor 17.
Le bras d'essuie-glace 2 est unique et porte un moyen d'essuyage formé par un balai 21 qui s'étend sensiblement suivant toute la dimension, transversale au rail de guidage 4, du pare-brise 1. Le bras 2 est en quelque sorte encastré à une extrémité sur le chariot 7, tandis que son autre extrémité est libre. The wiper arm 2 is unique and carries a wiping means formed by a blade 21 which extends substantially along the entire dimension, transverse to the guide rail 4, of the windshield 1. The arm 2 is in somehow embedded at one end on the carriage 7, while its other end is free.
Ceci étant, le fonctionnement du dispositif
D de la figure 1 résulte immédiatement des explications qui précèdent.However, the operation of the device
D of Figure 1 immediately follows from the foregoing explanations.
Lorsque le moto-réducteur 17 est mis en marche, la poulie 16 est entraînée en rotation par exemple dans le sens d'horloge. Le cable 15 est luimême entrainé et le chariot 7 est déplacé le long du rail 4 de la position médiane représentée sur la figure 1, vers l'extrémité gauche comme représenté par la position en trait mixte du chariot. When the gear motor 17 is started, the pulley 16 is rotated for example in the clockwise direction. The cable 15 is itself driven and the carriage 7 is moved along the rail 4 from the middle position shown in Figure 1, to the left end as shown by the position in broken line of the carriage.
L'arrivée du chariot 7 vers cette extrémité provoque, par action sur le moyen 20, l'inversion du sens de rotation du moto-réducteur 17, et le bras 2 repart de la gauche de la figure 1 vers l'extrémité droite du pare-brise où une nouvelle inversion du sens de rotation est commandée. The arrival of the carriage 7 towards this end causes, by action on the means 20, the reversal of the direction of rotation of the geared motor 17, and the arm 2 starts from the left of FIG. 1 towards the right end of the barrier. -brise where a new reversal of the direction of rotation is ordered.
La surface essuyée par le balai 21 est limitée par le contour sensiblement trapézoidal représenté en trait mixte sur la figure 1. The surface wiped by the brush 21 is limited by the substantially trapezoidal contour shown in phantom in Figure 1.
Bien que dans l'exemple décrit le rail de guidage 4 soit disposé suivant un grand côté du parebrise 1, ce qui correspond à la solution préférée, ce rail de guidage 4 pourrait astre disposé suivant un petit côté et le bras 2 au lieu de se trouver dans un plan sensiblement vertical comme dans le cas de la figure 1, se trouverait dans un plan sensiblement horizontal et se déplacerait, parallèlement à luimeme, alternativement de haut en bas et de bas en haut. Although in the example described the guide rail 4 is arranged along a long side of the windshield 1, which corresponds to the preferred solution, this guide rail 4 could be arranged along a small side and the arm 2 instead of being find in a substantially vertical plane as in the case of Figure 1, would be in a substantially horizontal plane and would move, parallel to itself, alternately from top to bottom and from bottom to top.
