Description
DISPOSITIF DE TRANSMISSION POUR VEHICULE
AUTOMOBILE
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine technique des transmissions. Plus précisément, elle concerne un différentiel de transmission, notamment pour essieu avant de véhicule automobile à groupe moto-propulseur transversal.TRANSMISSION DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
AUTOMOTIVE
The present invention relates to the technical field of transmissions. More specifically, it relates to a transmission differential, in particular for the front axle of a motor vehicle with a transverse powertrain.
Les différentiels de véhicules routiers comportent de façon classique un boîtier recevant le mouvement d'une couronne d'entrée rapportée sur celui-ci, ce boîtier transmettant à son tour le mouvement à deux planétaires de sortie coaxiaux, par l'intermédiaire d'un axe de différentiel, et de satellites.Differentials for road vehicles conventionally include a housing receiving the movement of an input crown attached thereto, this housing in turn transmitting the movement to two planetary coaxial output, via an axis differential, and satellites.
Par la publication EP 0.614.778, on connaît un différentiel de ce type, dont le boîtier est fermé par un couvercle portant contre l'un des planétaires, de façon à repousser celui-ci en direction des satellites, lors de son montage sur le boîtier.By publication EP 0.614.778, a differential of this type is known, the housing of which is closed by a cover bearing against one of the planetaries, so as to push the latter towards the satellites, when it is mounted on the housing.
Cette architecture présente notamment l'avantage de limiter les défauts de coaxialité entre les roulements du différentiel, et d'augmenter la rigidité de ce dernier.This architecture has in particular the advantage of limiting the coaxiality defects between the bearings of the differential, and of increasing the rigidity of the latter.
Conformément aux disposition habituelles dans ce domaine, le montage du différentiel décrit dans la publication EP 0.614.778 laisse subsister un jeu de fonctionnement entre les différents éléments du mécanisme, notamment entre les satellites et le planétaire qui n'est pas sollicité par le couvercle.In accordance with the usual provisions in this field, the mounting of the differential described in the publication EP 0.614.778 leaves a clearance of operation between the various elements of the mechanism, in particular between the satellites and the planet gear which is not stressed by the cover.
En fonctionnement, ces jeux sont à l'origine de chocs internes dans le mécanisme à chaque mise en contact brutale des pièces sous l'effet du passage ou de l'interruption du couple. Ces claquements, transmis à la chaîne cinématique, pénalisent lourdement le véhicule en termes de confort et de niveau acoustique.In operation, these games are the source of internal shocks in the mechanism each time the parts come into abrupt contact under the effect of the passage or interruption of the torque. These clicks, transmitted to the kinematic chain, severely penalize the vehicle in terms of comfort and acoustic level.
La présente invention vise à réduire les jeux de fonctionnement au sein d'un mécanisme différentiel.The present invention aims to reduce the operating clearances within a differential mechanism.
Elle a pour objet un dispositif de transmission, notamment pour véhicule automobile, comportant d'une part un boîtier qui renferme un axe de différentiel maintenu par ses extrémités dans deux orifices du boîtier transférant le couple par l'intermédiaire de satellites à deux planétaires de sortie coaxiaux, et d'autre part un couvercle de fermeture du boîtier fixé sur celui-ci par des vis de serrage. Ce dispositif est caractérisé en ce que les orifices ont une forme oblongue permettant à l'axe de se déplacer dans ces derniers lors du serrage du couvercle sur le boîtier en vue de supprimer les jeux de fonctionnement internes du mécanisme.It relates to a transmission device, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising on the one hand a housing which contains a differential axis held by its ends in two orifices of the housing transferring the torque by means of satellites with two planetary output coaxial, and secondly a housing closure cover fixed thereon by clamping screws. This device is characterized in that the orifices have an oblong shape allowing the axis to move in the latter when the cover is tightened on the housing in order to eliminate the internal operating clearances of the mechanism.
Le serrage des vis entraîne notamment la poussée d'un premier planétaire au fond du boîtier. The tightening of the screws in particular causes the thrust of a first sun gear at the bottom of the housing.
Ce recul du premier planétaire s'accompagne d'un déplacement du second planétaire en direction de l'axe du différentiel, sous la poussée du couvercle.This retraction of the first sun gear is accompanied by a displacement of the second sun gear towards the axis of the differential, under the thrust of the cover.
De façon préférentielle, l'axe se déplace le long de tiges de coulissement orientées parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du différentiel.Preferably, the axis moves along sliding rods oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the differential.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront clairement à la lecture de la description suivante d'un mode de réalisation particulier de celle-ci, en liaison avec les dessins annexés, sur lesquels - les figures 1 et 2, représentent un différentiel conforme à
l'invention en coupe longitudinale, avant et après le serrage de son
couvercle, et - la figure 3 correspond à une vue selon F de la figure 2.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear clearly on reading the following description of a particular embodiment thereof, in conjunction with the appended drawings, in which - Figures 1 and 2, represent a differential in accordance with
the invention in longitudinal section, before and after tightening its
cover, and - Figure 3 corresponds to a view along F of Figure 2.
Le différentiel apparaissant sur les figures, présente un boîtier 1 supportant une couronne d'entrée de mouvement la, et renfermant un axe 2, qui entraîne un ensemble de satellites 3 transmettant euxmêmes le mouvement à deux planétaires de sortie coaxiaux 4, 5. Le boîtier 1 est fermé par un couvercle 6, fixé sur celui-ci par des vis de serrage 8.The differential appearing in the figures has a housing 1 supporting a movement input ring 1a, and containing an axis 2, which drives a set of satellites 3 themselves transmitting the movement to two coaxial output planets 4, 5. The housing 1 is closed by a cover 6, fixed on the latter by clamping screws 8.
De façon classique, l'axe 2 est logé à chacune de ses extrémités dans des orifices 7 du boîtier, traversant de part en part la paroi de celui ci. Alors que selon la technique connue, les orifices de logement de l'axe du différentiel dans le boîtier sont circulaires, le boîtier 1 du différentiel de l'invention présente des orifices 7 dont la forme oblongue, permet à l'axe 2 de disposer d'un jeu J, mis en évidence sur la figure 3? pour se positionner à l'intérieur du boîtier 1.Typically, the axis 2 is housed at each of its ends in orifices 7 of the housing, passing right through the wall thereof. While according to the known technique, the housing openings of the differential axis in the housing are circular, the housing 1 of the differential of the invention has orifices 7 whose oblong shape allows the axis 2 to have 'a game J, highlighted in Figure 3? to position itself inside the housing 1.
Conformément à l'invention, la mobilité de l'axe 2 à l'intérieur du boîtier 1 autorisée par la forme allongée des orifices 7, est contrôlée par des tiges de coulissement 11, orientées selon l'axe longitudinal du différentiel, de façon à imposer à l'axe 2 de se déplacer parallèlement à lui-même. Lors du serrage du couvercle, le déplacement de l'axe 2 le long des tiges 11 permet de rattraper les jeux de fonctionnement internes du mécanisme.According to the invention, the mobility of the axis 2 inside the housing 1 authorized by the elongated shape of the orifices 7, is controlled by sliding rods 11, oriented along the longitudinal axis of the differential, so as to force axis 2 to move parallel to itself. When tightening the cover, the movement of the axis 2 along the rods 11 makes it possible to make up for the internal operating clearances of the mechanism.
Les figures 1 et 2 mettent en évidence que, le serrage des vis 8 se traduit par un rapprochement du boîtier 1 en direction du couvercle 6, entraînant à droite le serrage d'un premier joint 1 la entre le boîtier 1, et le planétaire droit 4, et le placage de l'axe 2 contre le boîtier 1. En d'autres termes, le serrage des vis 8 se traduit par le déplacement du planétaire droit 4 au fond du boîtier 1 sous la poussée de l'axe 2. Du fait que le boîtier 1 vient alors porter contre le planétaire droit 4, en serrant un premier joint 1 la, le placage de l'axe 2 contre l'extrémité droite 7a du trou oblong 7 permet de supprimer, à droite, les jeux de fonctionnement existant avant le serrage entre le planétaire droit 4, les satellites 3 coopérant avec celui-ci, et l'axe 2. Figures 1 and 2 highlight that, the tightening of the screws 8 results in a bringing together of the housing 1 in the direction of the cover 6, causing on the right the tightening of a first seal 1 la between the housing 1, and the right sun gear 4, and the plating of the axis 2 against the housing 1. In other words, the tightening of the screws 8 results in the displacement of the right sun gear 4 at the bottom of the housing 1 under the thrust of the axis 2. From fact that the housing 1 then comes to bear against the right sun gear 4, by tightening a first seal 11a, the plating of the axis 2 against the right end 7a of the oblong hole 7 makes it possible to eliminate, on the right, the operating clearances existing before tightening between the right sun gear 4, the satellites 3 cooperating with it, and the axis 2.
A gauche, le serrage des vis 8 entraîne le serrage d'un second joint 1 lb entre le boitier 1 et le couvercle 6, et la poussée du planétaire droit 5 contre les satellites 3 coopérant avec celui-ci et l'axe 2, sous la poussée du couvercle 6 contre l'arrière du planétaire gauche 5.On the left, the tightening of the screws 8 causes the tightening of a second seal 1 lb between the case 1 and the cover 6, and the thrust of the right sun gear 5 against the satellites 3 cooperating with it and the axis 2, under the thrust of the cover 6 against the rear of the left sun gear 5.
Cette compression se traduit par la suppression des jeux de fonctionnement existant, avant le serrage, entre ces éléments.This compression results in the elimination of the existing operating clearances, before tightening, between these elements.
Etant donné que d'une manière générale, les engrenages coniques ont un meilleur fonctionnement lorsqu'ils travaillent sans jeu, les dispositions proposées par l'invention permettent d'une part d'améliorer la tenue mécanique des planétaires et des satellites, donc d'augmenter la durée de vie de ces derniers, et d'autre part de supprimer en grande partie les bruits de claquement évoqués cidessus. Since, in general, the bevel gears function better when they work without play, the arrangements proposed by the invention make it possible, on the one hand, to improve the mechanical strength of the planetary and of the satellites, therefore to increase the lifespan of the latter, and on the other hand to largely eliminate the clicking noises mentioned above.
