L'invention concerne une structure d'auvent de véhicule automobile dans lequel une boîte à air communique avec la surface d'un filtre à pollen. Les boîtes à air sont généralement constituées par une pièce de structure placée entre un capot et une paroi de séparation transversale située entre le compartiment moteur et l'habitacle du véhicule. Une telle boîte à air est fermée par un couvercle pourvu de passages d'air de ventilation.MOTOR VEHICLE AWNING STRUCTURE
The invention relates to a motor vehicle awning structure in which an air box communicates with the surface of a pollen filter. The air boxes generally consist of a structural part placed between a hood and a transverse partition wall located between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment of the vehicle. Such an air box is closed by a cover provided with ventilation air passages.

La publication FR-A-2490572 décrit un couvercle encastré qui possède une grille d'arrêt de corps étrangers dans le but d'éviter leur pénétration dans la boîte à air.The publication FR-A-2490572 describes a recessed cover which has a stop grid for foreign bodies in order to prevent their penetration into the air box.

La publication EP-A-00991 15 décrit un couvercle obturateur qui possède un bord transversal muni de pattes d'encastrement engagées dans une paroi de la boîte à air, tandisque le bord opposé est agrafé au bord avant de ladite boîte.Publication EP-A-00991 15 describes a shutter cover which has a transverse edge provided with mounting tabs engaged in a wall of the air box, while the opposite edge is stapled to the front edge of said box.

Par contre lorsque la boîte à air communique avec l'entrée d'un filtre additionnel destiné à arrêter les particules en suspension dans l'air telles que le pollen, les spores et la poussière, on rencontre des difficultés pour assurer la vérification et le remplacement du filtre.On the other hand when the air box communicates with the inlet of an additional filter intended to stop the particles in suspension in the air such as pollen, spores and dust, one encounters difficulties to ensure the verification and the replacement. of the filter.

L'invention a pour objet une structure d'auvent qui remédie à l'inconvénient precité, selon laquelle on monte sur le couvercle de fermeture de la boîte à air, une trappe qui possède un moyen de blocage engagé dans une bordure d'étanchéité transversale portée par ledit couvercle.The subject of the invention is a canopy structure which overcomes the aforementioned drawback, according to which a hatch which has locking means engaged in a transverse sealing edge is mounted on the closing cover of the air box. carried by said cover.

Selon l'invention la trappe possède un bord avant muni d'un doigt d'encastrement engagé dans le couvercle et un bord arrière bloqué au contact de la bordure d'étanchéité dudit couvercle.According to the invention, the hatch has a front edge provided with an embedding finger engaged in the cover and a rear edge blocked in contact with the sealing edge of said cover.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention et dans le but d'éviter l'arrachement accidentel de la trappe, le bord arrière de celleci surplombe des moyens de coincement élastiques du couvercle au contact de la face inférieure d'un bord de tôle support du pare-brise du véhicule. According to another characteristic of the invention and in order to avoid accidental tearing of the hatch, the rear edge of the latter overhangs elastic locking means of the cover in contact with the underside of a sheet metal support edge. vehicle windshield.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention et dans le but d'éviter l'ouverture non désirée de la trappe sous l'effet des forces de pression aérodynamiques, le bord avant de la trappe est masqué par le bord arrière du capot de fermeture du compartiment moteur.According to another characteristic of the invention and in order to avoid the unwanted opening of the hatch under the effect of aerodynamic pressure forces, the front edge of the hatch is masked by the rear edge of the cover for closing the engine compartment.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaitront à la lecture d'un exemple de réalisation de la structure d'auvent en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel: - la figure 1 est une représentation schématique de la partie avant du
véhicule portant la structure d'auvent.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear on reading an embodiment of the awning structure with reference to the appended drawing in which: - Figure 1 is a schematic representation of the front part of the
vehicle carrying the awning structure.

- la figure 2 est une vue en perspective de la structure d'auvent
représentée à la figure 1.- Figure 2 is a perspective view of the awning structure
shown in Figure 1.

- les figures 3 et 4 sont des vues en coupe de la structure suivant les
lignes m et IV de la figure 2.- Figures 3 and 4 are sectional views of the structure according to
lines m and IV of figure 2.

Sur la figure I on voit une partie de la carrosserie 1 du véhicule sur laquelle sont délimités le compartiment moteur 2 et l'habitacle 3. Le compartiment moteur 2 est fermé par un capot 4 et est séparé de l'habitacle 3 par une paroi 5 transversale. L'habitacle 3 est fermé à sa partie avant au dessus de la paroi 5 par un pare-brise 6 dont le bord inférieur est collé sur une traverse 7 de forme courbe qui s'étend sur toute la largeur du véhicule.In Figure I we see a part of the body 1 of the vehicle on which are delimited the engine compartment 2 and the passenger compartment 3. The engine compartment 2 is closed by a cover 4 and is separated from the passenger compartment 3 by a wall 5 transverse. The passenger compartment 3 is closed at its front part above the wall 5 by a windshield 6, the lower edge of which is glued to a cross member 7 of curved shape which extends over the entire width of the vehicle.

La paroi 5 dénommée tablier est fixée à sa partie supérieure à la traverse 7 et est fixée à sa partie inférieure sur le plancher non représenté.The wall 5, called the apron, is fixed at its upper part to the cross-member 7 and is fixed at its lower part on the floor, not shown.

La traverse 7 de pare brise, le tablier 5, le bord postérieur 4 a du capot 4 et la cloison de fond 9 délimitent un espace appelé boîte à air 10.The cross member 7 of the windscreen, the bulkhead 5, the rear edge 4 a of the cover 4 and the bottom partition 9 delimit a space called the air box 10.

La boîte à air représentée à la figure 2 est constituée sous la forme d'une gouttière dans laquelle sont montés certains équipements du véhicule et notamment le mécanisme d'essuievitre, le boitier de chauffage et l'évaporateur. La boîte à air 10 est fermée par un couvercle 11 pourvu d'une grille 12 et d'une trappe 13 de passage d'air, qui permettent l'introduction dynamique d'un flux d'air de ventilation et de chauffage de
I'habitacle. La trappe 12 est une grille fixe réalisée avec le couvercle 11, tandisque la trappe 13 est amovible et surplombe un filtre à pollen 15.The air box shown in Figure 2 is in the form of a gutter in which are mounted certain equipment of the vehicle and in particular the wiper mechanism, the heating unit and the evaporator. The air box 10 is closed by a cover 11 provided with a grid 12 and an air passage hatch 13, which allow the dynamic introduction of a flow of ventilation and heating air from
The passenger compartment. The hatch 12 is a fixed grid made with the cover 11, while the hatch 13 is removable and overhangs a pollen filter 15.

La fixation de la trappe 13 est opérée par des tenons horizontaux de blocage 20 engagés dans des mortaises 21 portées par une bordure d'étanchéité 22 du couvercle 11.The hatch 13 is fixed by horizontal locking pins 20 engaged in mortises 21 carried by a sealing edge 22 of the cover 11.

La bordure 22 s'étend transversalement et recouvre la base du pare-brise 6 ainsi que cela est montré aux figures 3 et 4.The border 22 extends transversely and covers the base of the windscreen 6 as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.

Dans le but d'immobiliser la trappe 13 par rapport au couvercle 11, le bord avant 23 de la trappe porte deux doigts d'encastrement plastiques 25, engagés dans le bord du couvercle 11 tandisque le bord arrière 24 de la trappe est bloqué par les tenons 20 engagés dans les mortaises 21.In order to immobilize the hatch 13 relative to the cover 11, the front edge 23 of the hatch carries two plastic embedding fingers 25, engaged in the edge of the cover 11 while the rear edge 24 of the hatch is blocked by the tenons 20 engaged in mortises 21.

La face inférieure du couvercle 11 porte par ailleurs des doigts de coincement 26 en appui élastique sur la face inférieure d'un bord 7a de la traverse 7 support du pare-brise 6.The underside of the cover 11 also carries wedging fingers 26 in elastic abutment on the underside of an edge 7a of the crossmember 7 supporting the windshield 6.

Ainsi que cela est montré à la figure 4, le bord arrière 24 surplombe les doigts 26 et évite la flexion accidentelle des doigts 26 sous l'action d'un effort parasite dans le sens d'un arrachement accidentel de la trappe.As shown in FIG. 4, the rear edge 24 overhangs the fingers 26 and prevents accidental bending of the fingers 26 under the action of a parasitic force in the direction of an accidental tearing of the hatch.

Enfin dans le but d'augmenter la sécurité d'emploi de la trappe 13, la zone des doigts d'encastrement 25 et le bord avant de la trappe, sont masqués par le bord arrière du capot 4a de fermeture de compartiment moteur. Finally in order to increase the safety of use of the hatch 13, the area of the embedding fingers 25 and the front edge of the hatch are hidden by the rear edge of the hood 4a for closing the engine compartment.
