Abstract

The bars (9,10) are stowed longitudinally between the feet (4,7 and 5,6) which are mounted on the roof (2) of the vehicle, and support the fixed longitudinal bars (17,18). The bars (9,10) are hinged at one end to the feet (5,7) to stow beside under the fixed bars, being secured by spring-loaded plungers and sockets.In use, the transverse bars are swung across the roof to engage in the appropriate sockets. The bars may have telescopic adjustment of their lengths.

Description

La présente invention concerne un nouveau dispositif de barres de toit pour véhicule automobile. The present invention relates to a new roof rack device for a motor vehicle.

I1 existe de nombreux dispositifs de barres de toit pouvant être montés sur le dessus du pavillon d'une automobile. Dans certaines réalisations, des barres de toit longitudinales sont montées à demeure sur un véhicule et servent au support de barres de toit amovibles pouvant s'étendre transversalement, barres de toit qui, lorsqu'elles sont inutilisées, sont démontées pour être rangées, par exemple, dans le coffre du véhicule afin de ne pas augmenter la trainée aérodynamique et pour éviter les sifflements qu'engendrent des barres s'étendant transversalement au sens d'avance du véhicule. There are many roof rack devices that can be mounted on top of the roof of an automobile. In certain embodiments, longitudinal roof bars are permanently mounted on a vehicle and are used to support removable roof bars which can extend transversely, roof bars which, when not in use, are dismantled for storage, for example , in the trunk of the vehicle so as not to increase the aerodynamic drag and to avoid the whistling noise generated by bars extending transversely to the direction of advance of the vehicle.

Les montages et démontages successifs des barres transversales constituent des sujétions pour l'utilisateur du véhicule et il existe aussi un risque de perte des pièces d'assemblage. The successive assembly and disassembly of the transverse bars constitute constraints for the user of the vehicle and there is also a risk of loss of the assembly parts.

La présente invention remédie aux inconvénients exposés ci-dessus en créant un nouveau dispositif de barres de toit qui ne comporte pas de barres amovibles, les barres pouvant, en permanence, occuper une position longitudinale et n'être amenées en position transversale qu'au moment pour lequel une charge doit être transportée. The present invention overcomes the drawbacks set out above by creating a new roof rack device which does not include removable bars, the bars being able to permanently occupy a longitudinal position and only be brought into a transverse position when for which a load must be transported.

Conformément a l'invention, le dispositif de barres de toit pour véhicule automobile est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte deux barres symétriques s'étendant, au repos, longitudinalement entre deux pieds de support, chacune des barres étant reliée a un pied de support par une articulation et fixée a l'autre pied de support par un organe de verrouillage dont la libération permet le pivotement des barres pour qu'elles s'étendent transversalement a l'axe du pavillon du véhicule dans une seconde position verrouillée.  According to the invention, the roof bar device for a motor vehicle is characterized in that it comprises two symmetrical bars extending, at rest, longitudinally between two support feet, each of the bars being connected to a support foot by a joint and fixed to the other support leg by a locking member whose release allows the bars to pivot so that they extend transversely to the axis of the roof of the vehicle in a second locked position.

Diverses autres autres caractéristiques de l'invention ressortent d'ailleurs de la description détaillée qui suit. Various other other characteristics of the invention will also emerge from the detailed description which follows.

Des formes de réalisation de l'objet de l'invention sont représentées, a titre d'exemples non limitatifs, aux dessins annexés. Embodiments of the object of the invention are shown, by way of nonlimiting examples, in the accompanying drawings.

La fig. 11 est une élévation, partie en coupe, d'un mécanisme de verrouillage, analogue à celui de la fig. 10, pour le maintien des barres en position transversale.  Fig. 11 is an elevation, partly in section, of a locking mechanism, similar to that of FIG. 10, for maintaining the bars in transverse position.

Au dessin, 1 désigne un véhicule automobile dont le pavillon 2 est muni du dispositif à barres de toit 3 de l'invention. In the drawing, 1 denotes a motor vehicle whose roof 2 is provided with the roof rack device 3 of the invention.

Le dispositif comporte des pieds de support 4, 5 et 6, 7 qui sont fixés à demeure d'une façon connue dans la technique sur des renforts du pavillon 2. The device comprises support legs 4, 5 and 6, 7 which are permanently fixed in a manner known in the art to reinforcements of the roof 2.

On ne sortirait pas du cadre de l'invention en remplaçant les pieds de support ci-dessus par des organes amovibles posés et verrouillés sur le pavillon 2. La technique antérieure a fait connaître de nombreuses réalisations de pieds amovibles pour barres et de galeries de toit, de sorte qu'il est inutile de les décrire plus en détail. It would not be departing from the scope of the invention to replace the above support legs with removable members placed and locked on the roof 2. The prior art has made known numerous embodiments of removable feet for bars and roof racks. , so there is no need to describe them in more detail.

Les pieds de support, par exemple les pieds 5 et 7, maintiennent, par une articulation 8 notamment un boulon formant axe comme illustré par la fig. 2, chacun une barre 9 respectivement 10 qui est, par ailleurs, fixée par son extrémité libre sur les pieds 4 respectivement 5, au moyen de boulons, goujons 11 ou, le cas échéant, par un autre organe de verrouillage tel qu'une bille 12 poussée par un ressort 13 (fig. 2). The support feet, for example the feet 5 and 7, maintain, by an articulation 8 in particular a bolt forming an axis as illustrated in FIG. 2, each a bar 9 respectively 10 which is, moreover, fixed by its free end to the feet 4 respectively 5, by means of bolts, studs 11 or, if necessary, by another locking member such as a ball 12 pushed by a spring 13 (fig. 2).

Les pieds de support 4 et 6 forment des ailes 14 dirigées respectivement vers les pieds 5 et 7. Les ailes 14 sont également munies de boulons ou goujons 11 ou autres organes de verrouillage amovibles. The support feet 4 and 6 form wings 14 directed respectively towards the feet 5 and 7. The wings 14 are also provided with bolts or studs 11 or other removable locking members.

I1 est avantageux, comme le montre le dessin, que les pieds et leurs ailes décrits ci-dessus présentent des chapes 15 (fig. 2 et 3) dans lesquelles sont introduites les extrémités amincies 16 des barres 9, 10. It is advantageous, as the drawing shows, that the feet and their wings described above have yokes 15 (FIGS. 2 and 3) into which the thinned ends 16 of the bars 9, 10 are introduced.

En position de non utilisation, les barres 9, 10 sont maintenues, comme illustré en trait plein à la fig. In the non-use position, the bars 9, 10 are maintained, as illustrated in solid lines in FIG.

1, dans le sens longitudinal du véhicule. Dans cette position, elles ne perturbent que peu l'aérodynamisme du véhicule. 1, in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. In this position, they only slightly disturb the aerodynamics of the vehicle.

Lorsqu'un objet doit être transporté, la barre 9 est pivotée suivant la flèche fl et la barre 10 suivant la flèche f2, de manière qu'une extrémité de chacune de ces barres soit dégagée du pied de support correspondant et que la barre soit amenée à la position illustrée en traits mixtes. L'utilisation des barres 9, 10 en position transversale est exactement celle des barres ordinaires. When an object is to be transported, the bar 9 is pivoted along the arrow f 1 and the bar 10 along the arrow f 2, so that one end of each of these bars is released from the corresponding support leg and the bar is brought in the position shown in phantom. The use of bars 9, 10 in the transverse position is exactly that of ordinary bars.

Les fig. 4 et 5 illustrent une variante qui permet de conserver, de façon permanente, des barres en position longitudinale. Dans ce cas, des barres 17, 18 sont fixées à demeure aux pieds de support 4, 7, d'une part, et 5, 6, d'autre part. Les barres 17, 18 peuvent, le cas échéant, être formées d'une pièce avec lesdits pieds qui présentent, comme précédemment et ainsi que l'illustre en particulier la fig. 5, des chapes 15 pour l'extrémité amincie 16 des barres 9, 10 qui sont réalisées de façon analogue à ce qui est décrit dans ce qui précède et qui sont logées, de préférence, en dessous des barres longitudinales 17, 18 et, plus particulièrement encore, dans un logement longitudinal 19 (fig. 5) desdites barres longitudinales 17, 18. Figs. 4 and 5 illustrate a variant which makes it possible to permanently keep bars in the longitudinal position. In this case, bars 17, 18 are permanently fixed to the support legs 4, 7, on the one hand, and 5, 6, on the other hand. The bars 17, 18 can, if necessary, be formed in one piece with the said feet which have, as before and as illustrated in particular in FIG. 5, yokes 15 for the thinned end 16 of the bars 9, 10 which are produced in a similar manner to that described in the foregoing and which are preferably housed below the longitudinal bars 17, 18 and more more particularly, in a longitudinal housing 19 (FIG. 5) of said longitudinal bars 17, 18.

De la même façon que décrit dans ce qui précède, lorsque les barres 9, 10 doivent être utilisées et doivent, par conséquent, s'étendre transversalement par rapport à l'axe du véhicule, elles sont pivotées autour de l'articulation 8 des pieds 5, 7 suivant les flèches fl et f2, puis elles sont verrouillées, par exemple par un boulon, un goujon 11 ou autre organe de verrouillage. In the same way as described in the foregoing, when the bars 9, 10 must be used and must therefore extend transversely relative to the axis of the vehicle, they are pivoted around the articulation 8 of the feet 5, 7 along the arrows fl and f2, then they are locked, for example by a bolt, a stud 11 or other locking member.

Les fig. 6 et 7 illustrent un développement de l'invention selon lequel lesbarres 9 et 10g comportent un tronçon 9k, 10 monté de manière télescopique, ce qui permet par conséquent, de les adapter à des véhicules dont le pavillon 2 est plus ou moins long ou plus ou moins large, c'est-à-dire de profiter des parties de renfort que comporte ce pavillon et celà, quel que soit l'emplacement desdites parties de renfort. Figs. 6 and 7 illustrate a development of the invention according to which the bars 9 and 10g comprise a section 9k, 10 mounted telescopically, which consequently makes it possible to adapt them to vehicles whose flag 2 is more or less long or more or less wide, that is to say to take advantage of the reinforcing parts that this pavilion and that, regardless of the location of said reinforcing parts.

La mise en oeuvre des barres est ensuite exactement celle décrite dans les réalisations précédentes.The implementation of the bars is then exactly that described in the previous embodiments.

Dans un but de simplification, la réalisation illustrée par la fig. 6 correspond à celle de la fig. 1, mais il est évident que la réalisation selon les fig. 4 et 5 peut comporter le développement illustré par les fig. 6 et 7. For the sake of simplification, the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 6 corresponds to that of FIG. 1, but it is obvious that the embodiment according to FIGS. 4 and 5 may include the development illustrated by FIGS. 6 and 7.

A la fig. 8, la réalisation est la même que celle décrite ci-dessus en référence aux fig. 2 et 7 mais un évidement 20 est ménagé dans le pied, tel que 4, au-delà de l'extrémité amincie 16 à l'intérieur de la chape 15. In fig. 8, the embodiment is the same as that described above with reference to FIGS. 2 and 7 but a recess 20 is formed in the base, such as 4, beyond the thinned end 16 inside the yoke 15.

Lorsque cet évidement 20 est prévu, il n'est plus nécessaire que les pieds de support 4 à 7 comportent l'aile 14 décrite en référence aux fig. 1 et 2. En effet, en considérant la fig. 9, on constate que la barre 10 pivotant autour de l'articulation 11 peut être amenée en position 101 et que la barre 9 peut être amenée en position 91 c'est-à-dire avec son extrémité s'engageant dans l'évidement 20. When this recess 20 is provided, it is no longer necessary for the support feet 4 to 7 to comprise the wing 14 described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. Indeed, considering fig. 9, it can be seen that the bar 10 pivoting around the articulation 11 can be brought into position 101 and that the bar 9 can be brought into position 91, that is to say with its end engaging the recess 20 .

La barre 10 peut alors être pivotée suivant la flèche f4 pour être amenée en position transversale 102 et la barre 9 déplacée de la position 91 à la position 92.  The bar 10 can then be pivoted along arrow f4 to be brought into the transverse position 102 and the bar 9 moved from position 91 to position 92.

Pour assurer un verrouillage très efficace des barres longitudinales et transversales, il peut être avantageux que les organes de verrouillage soient réalisés par exemple comme illustré à la fig. 10 qui montre une disposition particulièrement avantageuse lorsque les barres pivotantes 8, 9 sont en position longitudinale et sont disposées à l'intérieur des barres longitudinales 17, 18 ou en dessous de celles-ci.  To ensure very effective locking of the longitudinal and transverse bars, it may be advantageous for the locking members to be produced for example as illustrated in FIG. 10 which shows a particularly advantageous arrangement when the pivoting bars 8, 9 are in the longitudinal position and are arranged inside the longitudinal bars 17, 18 or below them.

Un bonhomme 21 est poussé par un ressort 22 de manière que l'extrémité du bonhomme soit engagée dans un trou 23 d'une équerre 24. Une gâche escamotable 25 est articulée sur le bonhomme 21 pour le dégager du trou 23 lorsqu'il y a lieu de faire pivoter la barre 9 ou la barre 10 qui est équipée de même manière. A snowman 21 is pushed by a spring 22 so that the end of the snowman is engaged in a hole 23 of a square 24. A retractable keeper 25 is articulated on the snowman 21 to release it from the hole 23 when there is instead of rotating the bar 9 or the bar 10 which is equipped in the same way.

Pour assurer le verrouillage lorsque les barres telles que 9 ou 10 sont disposées transversalement, les pieds de support, tels que 4, présentent latéralement un évidement 26 précédé d'une rampe 27. To ensure locking when the bars such as 9 or 10 are arranged transversely, the support feet, such as 4, have a recess 26 laterally preceded by a ramp 27.

Lorsque la barre 9 est pivotée dans le sens de la flèche f5, l'extrémité du bonhomme 21 bute contre la rampe 27. De cette manière, le bonhomme est repoussé contre l'action du ressort 22 et le bonhomme entre finalement dans l'évidement 26. La gâchette escamotable 25 permet ensuite le dégagement du bonhomme. When the bar 9 is pivoted in the direction of the arrow f5, the end of the snowman 21 abuts against the ramp 27. In this way, the snowman is pushed back against the action of the spring 22 and the snowman finally enters the recess 26. The retractable trigger 25 then allows the snowman to be released.

L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation, représentés et décrits en détail, car diverses modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir de son cadre.  The invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments, shown and described in detail, since various modifications can be made thereto without departing from its scope.
