Abstract

The modular hubcap (1) for a tyre (5) is composed of several interchangeable parts (9) with small coupling sleeves for fixing onto the fixing nuts (4) of the wheels (3). The interchangeable parts are in the shape of a disc or crown sector and completely form a disc or crown when they are assembled. They are fixed directly onto the wheel fixing nuts on the hub.

Description

La présente invention concerne les enjoliveurs de roue pour véhicules automobiles. The present invention relates to wheel trims for motor vehicles.

Les enjoliveurs de roue actuels sont, pour la plupart, réalisés d'une seule pièce en matière plastique moulée. I1 est donc nécessaire de prévoir un moule de fabrication pour chaque modèle d'enjoliveur de caractéristiques esthétiques données, ce qui implique une multiplication des coûts avec la multiplication des modèles. Most of the current wheel covers are made from a single piece of molded plastic. It is therefore necessary to provide a manufacturing mold for each model of embellishment of given aesthetic characteristics, which implies a multiplication of costs with the multiplication of models.

La demande de brevet FR-A-2 619 759 décrit un enjoliveur modulaire constitué par l'assemblage d'un élément central circulaire et d'un élément périphérique annulaire. Ces éléments sont chacun interchangeables avec des éléments analogues de manière à pouvoir adapter l'enjoliveur sur plusieurs types de jante. La réalisation d'enjoliveurs présentant des caractéristiques esthétiques différentes nécessite la réalisation de moules de parties annulaires et circulaires différents ce qui se traduit encore par une multiplication des coûts avec la multiplication des modèles. Patent application FR-A-2 619 759 describes a modular hubcap constituted by the assembly of a circular central element and an annular peripheral element. These elements are each interchangeable with similar elements so as to be able to adapt the hubcap to several types of rim. The production of hubcaps with different aesthetic characteristics requires the production of molds of different annular and circular parts, which again results in an increase in costs with the increase in models.

De plus, la partie centrale circulaire est fixée en étant serrée entre la jante et les vis de fixation de la roue. Les opérations de montage et de remplacement de tels enjoliveurs sont donc particulièrement longues et compliquées. In addition, the circular central part is fixed by being clamped between the rim and the wheel fixing screws. The assembly and replacement operations of such hubcaps are therefore particularly long and complicated.

L'invention a pour but de remédier aux inconvénients mentionnés précédemment et en particulier de fournir un enjoliveur modulaire permettant de réaliser, pour des investissements en outillage réduits, une grande variété d'enjoliveurs de caractéristiques esthétiques différentes, de fixation aisée et permettant ainsi à chaque utilisateur de personnaliser aisément son véhicule.  The object of the invention is to remedy the drawbacks mentioned above and in particular to provide a modular cover making it possible to produce, for reduced investments in tools, a wide variety of covers of different aesthetic characteristics, of easy fixing and thus allowing each user to easily personalize their vehicle.

A cet effet l'invention a pour objet un enjoliveur de roue modulaire composé de plusieurs éléments et comprenant des moyens de fixation sur une jante, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend au moins trois éléments interchangeables en forme de secteur de disque ou de secteur de couronne. To this end, the subject of the invention is a modular wheel cover made up of several elements and comprising means for fixing to a rim, characterized in that it comprises at least three interchangeable elements in the form of a disc sector or a sector of crowned.

Suivant d'autres modes de réalisations, l'enjoliveur comporte une ou plusieurs des caractéristiques suivantes
- lesdits éléments interchangeables couvrent un disque complet ou une couronne complète lorsqu'ils sont assemblés
- les éléments interchangeables sont en forme de secteur de disque et sont fixés directement sur les organes de fixation de la jante sur le moyeu
- l'enjoliveur comprend un élément central circulaire fixé sur les organes de fixation de la jante sur le moyeu et les éléments interchangeables sont en forme de secteur de couronne
- un jeu est ménagé entre l'élément central circulaire et la partie centrale de la jante et les éléments interchangeables sont adaptés pour s'engager dans ce jeu
- les éléments interchangeables présentent un décrochement sur leur bord circonférentiel interne pour s'engager dans ledit jeu
- les éléments interchangeables sont fixés sur le bord extérieur de la jante par enclenchement élastique
- les bords radiaux des éléments interchangeables sont biseautés
- chaque élément interchangeable présente sur sa face interne, le long de son bord extérieur, un bourrelet d'encliquetage
- il est constitué d'éléments d'aspects différents.According to other embodiments, the hubcap includes one or more of the following characteristics
- said interchangeable elements cover a complete disc or a complete crown when assembled
- the interchangeable elements are in the form of a disc sector and are fixed directly to the rim fixing members on the hub
- the hubcap includes a circular central element fixed on the rim fixing members on the hub and the interchangeable elements are in the form of a crown sector
a clearance is provided between the circular central element and the central part of the rim and the interchangeable elements are adapted to engage in this clearance
- the interchangeable elements have a recess on their internal circumferential edge to engage in said game
- the interchangeable elements are fixed on the outer edge of the rim by elastic engagement
- the radial edges of the interchangeable elements are bevelled
- each interchangeable element has on its internal face, along its external edge, a snap-on bead
- it is made up of elements with different aspects.

Des exemples de réalisation de l'invention vont maintenant être décrits en regard des dessins annexés, sur lesquels
- la figure 1 est une vue schématique en perspective éclatée d'un enjoliveur selon l'invention et d'une roue, selon un mode de réalisation
- les figures 2 et 3 sont des vues en perspective suivant deux angles différents d'un élément constituant l'enjoliveur de la figure 1

- la figure 9 est un schéma présentant des exemples de différentes possibilités de combinaison offertes par un jeu d'éléments d'enjoliveur de deux aspects différents selon l'invention.Embodiments of the invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
- Figure 1 is a schematic exploded perspective view of a hubcap according to the invention and a wheel, according to one embodiment
- Figures 2 and 3 are perspective views from two different angles of an element constituting the hubcap of Figure 1

- Figures 7 and 8 are respectively a section and a perspective view of an element of the stacker of Figure 4; and
- Figure 9 is a diagram showing examples of different possibilities of combination offered by a set of trim elements of two different aspects according to the invention.

Les figures 1 à 3 représentent un enjoliveur modulaire 1 destiné à être monté sur une jante 3 d'une roue 5. La jante 3 représentée est pourvue de quatre écrous ou autres organes de fixation 4 permettant de la fixer sur un moyeu non représenté. Figures 1 to 3 show a modular cover 1 intended to be mounted on a rim 3 of a wheel 5. The rim 3 shown is provided with four nuts or other fixing members 4 for fixing it on a hub not shown.

L'enjoliveur 1 est constitué de quatre éléments 9 identiques, en forme de secteur de disque. The hubcap 1 is made up of four identical elements 9, in the form of a disk sector.

Chaque élément 9 s'étend sur un angle de 900, et les éléments 9 couvrent donc un disque complet lorsqu'ils sont assemblés. Chaque élément 9 comporte sur sa face interne le long de son bord extérieur un bourrelet d'encliquetage 11. Chaque élément 9 comporte en outre sur sa face interne un manchon 15 adapté pour venir s'adapter sur un des écrous 4.Each element 9 extends over an angle of 900, and the elements 9 therefore cover a complete disc when they are assembled. Each element 9 has on its internal face along its outer edge a snap-on bead 11. Each element 9 also has on its internal face a sleeve 15 adapted to come to fit on one of the nuts 4.

Pour monter l'enjoliveur 1 sur la jante 3, on engage le manchon 15 sur un écrou de la jante 3 puis on applique une pression sur le bord 13 de l'enjoliveur de façon à enclencher élastiquement le bourrelet 11 sous le bord extérieur 17 de la jante 3. On répète cette opération avec les trois éléments restants jusqu'à obtenir l'enjoliveur complet. La pose de l'enjoliveur complet est donc facile et rapide. To mount the hubcap 1 on the rim 3, the sleeve 15 is engaged on a rim nut 3 and then pressure is applied to the edge 13 of the hubcap so as to elastically engage the bead 11 under the outer edge 17 of rim 3. This operation is repeated with the three remaining elements until the complete hubcap is obtained. Installation of the complete hubcap is therefore quick and easy.

Bien entendu, le nombre d'éléments 9 constituant l'enjoliveur peut être différent de quatre. I1 correspond par exemple au nombre d'écrous de la jante à couvrir et la position de chaque manchon sur chaque élément 9 dépend alors de la disposition des écrous sur la jante. L'angle couvert par chaque secteur est déterminé par le nombre de secteurs si les éléments assemblés doivent couvrir un cercle complet. Of course, the number of elements 9 constituting the hubcap can be different from four. I1 corresponds for example to the number of nuts on the rim to be covered and the position of each sleeve on each element 9 then depends on the arrangement of the nuts on the rim. The angle covered by each sector is determined by the number of sectors if the assembled elements must cover a complete circle.

Les éléments 9 présentés ci-dessus sont tous identiques et portent le même motif. Ils peuvent aussi, en variante, comporter des motifs différents. The elements 9 presented above are all identical and have the same motif. Alternatively, they may also have different patterns.

Les figures 4 à 8 illustrent un autre mode de réalisation d'un enjoliveur 1 selon l'invention. L'enjoliveur 1 est constitué de quatre éléments 19 identiques en forme de secteur de couronne et d'un élément central circulaire 21. Dans cette configuration le nombre d'éléments en arc de couronne est indépendant du nombre d'écrous. Chaque élément 19 comporte deux bords concentriques intérieur 23 et extérieur 25 et deux bords radiaux 27 et 29 biseautés, le bord 27 d'un élément recouvrant le bord 29 de l'élément adjacent pour procurer une épaisseur constante (Figures 7 et 8). Figures 4 to 8 illustrate another embodiment of a cover 1 according to the invention. The hubcap 1 is made up of four identical elements 19 in the form of a crown sector and a circular central element 21. In this configuration, the number of elements in a crown arc is independent of the number of nuts. Each element 19 has two inner concentric edges 23 and outer 25 and two radial edges 27 and 29 bevelled, the edge 27 of an element covering the edge 29 of the adjacent element to provide a constant thickness (Figures 7 and 8).

Chaque bord 23 comporte un décrochement 31 tandis que chaque bord 25 est muni comme dans l'exemple précédent d'un bourrelet d'encliquetage 11. L'élément central 21 est constitué d'une calotte sphérique 33 comportant sur sa face interne, quatre manchons 15 adaptés pour venir s'adapter sur les écrous 4 et d'une longueur qui ménage un jeu 35 entre la face interne de la calotte 21 et le flanc extérieur de la jante 3. Each edge 23 has a recess 31 while each edge 25 is provided as in the previous example with a latching bead 11. The central element 21 consists of a spherical cap 33 having on its internal face, four sleeves 15 adapted to come to fit on the nuts 4 and of a length which provides a clearance 35 between the internal face of the cap 21 and the external side of the rim 3.

Le montage de cet enjoliveur s'effectue comme suit (figure 6) on engage l'élément 21 sur les écrous de la jante 3. On glisse la partie 31 d'un élément 19 sous l'élément central 21 grâce au jeu 35 prévu à cet effet. On applique une pression sous le bord 25 de l'élément 19 de manière à le fixer par enclenchement élastique sous le bord extérieur de la jante. On répète cette opération avec les trois éléments 19 restants en faisant se chevaucher les bords biseautés 27, 29. The mounting of this hubcap is carried out as follows (FIG. 6) the element 21 is engaged on the rim nuts 3. The part 31 of an element 19 is slid under the central element 21 thanks to the clearance 35 provided for this effect. Pressure is applied under the edge 25 of the element 19 so as to fix it by elastic engagement under the outer edge of the rim. This operation is repeated with the three remaining elements 19, making the beveled edges 27, 29 overlap.

Le montage de cet enjoliveur est également facile et rapide. Les bords biseautés 27 et 29 contribuent à une meilleure fixation des éléments, chaque élément 19 étant retenu par les deux éléments 19 adjacents. The mounting of this hubcap is also quick and easy. The bevelled edges 27 and 29 contribute to a better fixing of the elements, each element 19 being retained by the two adjacent elements 19.

La figure 9 illustre différentes possibilités de combinaison offertes par un jeu d'éléments 19 constitué d'éléments de deux aspects différents A et B. On voit que l'on peut réaliser au moins quatre modèles d'enjoliveurs en combinant différemment les éléments A et B. FIG. 9 illustrates different possibilities of combination offered by a set of elements 19 made up of elements of two different aspects A and B. It can be seen that at least four models of hubcaps can be produced by combining elements A and B.

L'invention permet donc à partir d'un nombre donné d'éléments d'aspects différents d'augmenter le nombre de modèles d'enjoliveur disponibles.The invention therefore makes it possible, from a given number of elements with different aspects, to increase the number of hubcap models available.

D'une manière plus générale, les possibilités de combinaison offertes par un jeu d'éléments interchangeables seront d'autant plus grandes que les aspects des éléments du jeu seront variés. Ainsi, chaque propriétaire peut personnaliser ses enjoliveurs en montant à son goût les différents modèles d'éléments proposés.  More generally, the combination possibilities offered by a set of interchangeable elements will be all the greater as the aspects of the elements of the game are varied. Thus, each owner can personalize their hubcaps by fitting the different models of elements offered to their liking.

On conçoit que les éléments interchangeables peuvent être de dimensions variées et peuvent ne pas s'étendre sur des angles égaux.  It is understood that the interchangeable elements can be of various dimensions and may not extend over equal angles.
