Abstract
Description
L'invention concerne l'agencement d'une trappe de remplissage de réservoir de carburant de véhicule automobile et plus particulièrement de son volet de fermeture. The invention relates to the arrangement of a hatch for filling a fuel tank of a motor vehicle and more particularly to its closing flap.
Dans un mode de réalisation couramment utilisé, la trappe de remplissage est fermée par un volet plein articulé sur la carrosserie du véhicule. L'ouverture de ce volet donne accès au bouchon obturant l'extrémité de la canalisation de remplissage débouchant dans ladite trappe. In a commonly used embodiment, the filling hatch is closed by a solid flap articulated on the vehicle body. The opening of this flap gives access to the plug closing the end of the filling pipe opening into said hatch.
Par ailleurs, la place prépondérante prise actuellement par la distribution des carburants en libre-service, oblige les utilisateurs à effectuer eux-mêmes le remplissage du réservoir de ces véhicules. I1 est donc intéressant de prévoir, à proximité, lors de cette opération, un chiffon d'essuyage et/ou une paire de gants permettant de se prémunir contre les coulures éventuelles de carburant ou d'essuyer ces éventuelles coulures. In addition, the preponderant place currently taken by the distribution of fuels in self-service, obliges the users to carry out themselves the filling of the tank of these vehicles. It is therefore advantageous to provide, nearby, during this operation, a wiping cloth and / or a pair of gloves making it possible to protect against possible fuel run-outs or to wipe these possible run-outs.
L'invention a donc pour but d'agencer à proximité du dispositif de remplissage d'un réservoir de véhicule automobile, un logement de réception d'articles du genre précité, sans que cela soit limitatif. The invention therefore aims to arrange near the filling device of a motor vehicle tank, a housing for receiving articles of the aforementioned kind, without this being limiting.
Pour ce faire, l'invention a pour objet une trappe de remplissage de réservoir de carburant de véhicule automobile du type formée d'un cuvelage intégré dans la carrosserie du véhicule dans le fond duquel est fixée l'embouchure d'une tubulure de remplissage obturée par un bouchon amovible et fermée par un volet. Ledit volet comporte, en outre, un boîtier solidaire de sa paroi interne et muni d'une ouverture débouchante. To do this, the invention relates to a motor vehicle fuel tank filling hatch of the type formed by a casing integrated in the vehicle body, at the bottom of which is fixed the mouth of a closed filling pipe. by a removable cap and closed by a flap. Said flap further comprises a housing integral with its internal wall and provided with a through opening.
Selon d'autres caractéristiques et/ou variantes de l'invention V La paroi interne du volet comporte un couvercle, mobile
en rotation autour d'un axe sensiblement parallèle au
plan dudit volet, agencé au-dessus du boîtier de façon à
pouvoir se rabattre sur son ouverture.According to other characteristics and / or variants of the invention V The internal wall of the flap has a movable cover
rotating around an axis substantially parallel to the
plane of said flap, arranged above the housing so as to
be able to fall back on its opening.
L'embouchure de la tubulure de remplissage est montée
dans la trappe à proximité d'une des cloisons latérales du
cuvelage, de façon à dégager une partie interne
importante de la trappe, en dehors de l'embouchure et du
bouchon associé.The mouth of the filler neck is fitted
in the hatch near one of the side partitions of the
casing, so as to release an internal part
significant of the hatch, apart from the mouth and
associated cap.
V Le boîtier est logé entièrement, en position fermée du
volet, dans la partie intérieure de la trappe laissée libre
par l'embouchure de la tubulure fermée par son bouchon.V The housing is fully housed in the closed position of the
flap, in the interior part of the hatch, left free
by the mouth of the tubing closed by its cap.
V Le boîtier est venu de moulage avec la paroi interne du
volet de fermeture de la trappe.V The housing is molded with the internal wall of the
hatch closing flap.
La paroi interne du volet de fermeture de la trappe porte
un support du bouchon d'obturation de l'embouchure de
la tubulure agencé de façon à se trouver en face de ladite
embouchure, lorsque le volet est en position fermée.The internal wall of the door flap closing flap
a stopper support for the mouthpiece of
the tubing arranged so as to be in front of said
mouth, when the flap is in the closed position.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée qui va suivre, pour la compréhension de laquelle on se reportera aux dessins annexés, dans lesquels
La figure 1 est une vue en élévation de la partie
latérale arrière d'un véhicule automobile,
La figure 2 est une vue en coupe selon 2-2 de la
figure 1 d'une trappe selon l'invention et,
La figure 3 est une vue en perspective de ladite
trappe, volet ouvert.Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the detailed description which follows, for the understanding of which reference will be made to the appended drawings, in which
Figure 1 is an elevational view of the part
rear side of a motor vehicle,
Figure 2 is a sectional view along 2-2 of the
FIG. 1 of a hatch according to the invention and,
Figure 3 is a perspective view of said
hatch, shutter open.
Sur les figures, on a représenté une trappe 1 de remplissage d'un réservoir de carburant de véhicule automobile, fermée par un volet 2. Cette trappe est formée d'un cuvelage 10 intégré dans la carrosserie 12 du véhicule au-dessus, par exemple, du passage de roue arrière 14. In the figures, there is shown a hatch 1 for filling a motor vehicle fuel tank, closed by a flap 2. This hatch is formed by a casing 10 integrated in the body 12 of the vehicle above, for example , rear wheel arch 14.
La tubulure de remplissage 16 est fixée, par un collier 18, dans une ouverture 19 pratiquée dans le fond du cuvelage et son embouchure 20 débouche à l'intérieur du cuvelage 10 de la trappe. L'embouchure 20 est en outre fermée par un bouchon 22 amovible. The filling tube 16 is fixed, by a collar 18, in an opening 19 made in the bottom of the casing and its mouth 20 opens out inside the casing 10 of the hatch. The mouth 20 is further closed by a removable plug 22.
Le volet 2 de fermeture de la trappe est articulé par l'un de ses bords sur l'élément de carrosserie 12 autour d'un axe 24 sensiblement vertical. A proximité du bord opposé 26 est agencé un élément de verrouillage 28 coopérant avec un élément complémentaire (non représenté) monté sur la carrosserie du véhicule pour assurer la fermeture de la trappe. The flap 2 for closing the hatch is articulated by one of its edges on the bodywork element 12 about a substantially vertical axis 24. Near the opposite edge 26 is arranged a locking element 28 cooperating with a complementary element (not shown) mounted on the body of the vehicle to ensure the closing of the hatch.
La paroi interne du volet 2 porte un support 30 du bouchon 22. I1 permet de ranger le bouchon lorsque celui-ci est retiré de l'embouchure 20 de la tubulure pour permettre l'introduction de la lance de remplissage. Ce support est, par exemple, en forme de berceau semi-circulaire, fixé ou venu de moulage avec la paroi du volet. I1 est, de préférence, agencé de façon à se trouver en face de l'embouchure 20 de la tubulure, lorsque le volet 2 est en position fermée. The internal wall of the shutter 2 carries a support 30 for the plug 22. I1 makes it possible to store the plug when the latter is removed from the mouth 20 of the tube to allow the introduction of the filling lance. This support is, for example, in the form of a semi-circular cradle, fixed or molded with the wall of the flap. I1 is preferably arranged so as to be opposite the mouth 20 of the tube, when the flap 2 is in the closed position.
L'embouchure 20 de la tubulure de remplissage est, de préférence, montée dans la trappe à proximité d'une des cloisons latérales, par exemple supérieure 31, du cuvelage, de façon à dégager une partie interne importante de la trappe, en dessous de l'embouchure et du bouchon associé. The mouth 20 of the filling tube is preferably mounted in the hatch near one of the lateral partitions, for example upper 31, of the casing, so as to release a significant internal part of the hatch, below the mouthpiece and the associated stopper.
Le volet 2 porte encore un boîtier 32, fixé sur ou venu de moulage avec sa paroi intérieure ainsi qu'un couvercle 34, mobile en rotation autour d'un axe 36 sensiblement parallèle au plan dudit volet. Le couvercle 34 est agencé au-dessus du boîtier 32 de façon à pouvoir se rabattre sur son ouverture 38. The shutter 2 also carries a housing 32, fixed on or molded with its inner wall as well as a cover 34, movable in rotation about an axis 36 substantially parallel to the plane of said shutter. The cover 34 is arranged above the housing 32 so that it can be folded over its opening 38.
Ledit boîtier et son couvercle, lorsqu'il est en position rabattue, ont une forme et des dimensions telles qu'ils peuvent de loger entièrement, en position fermée du volet 2, dans la partie intérieure de la trappe laissée libre par l'embouchure 10 fermée par son bouchon 22 (figure 2). Said housing and its cover, when in the folded position, have a shape and dimensions such that they can be accommodated entirely, in the closed position of the flap 2, in the interior part of the hatch left free by the mouth 10 closed by its plug 22 (Figure 2).
On a ainsi agencé un logement permettant de contenir, par exemple une paire de gants, un chiffon d'essuyage ou tout autre objet, facilement accessible à l'ouverture du volet de trappe et qui ne gêne en rien les opérations nécessaires au remplissage du réservoir. C'est ainsi que le bouchon peut être manipulé sans obstacle, puisque l'ouverture du volet dégage le boîtier, et qu'il dispose toujours d'un support permettant de l'accrocher durant lesdites opérations. A housing has thus been arranged making it possible to contain, for example a pair of gloves, a wiping cloth or any other object, easily accessible at the opening of the hatch flap and which in no way interferes with the operations necessary for filling the tank. . Thus the plug can be handled without obstacle, since the opening of the flap releases the housing, and that it always has a support allowing it to be hung during said operations.
