<Desc/Clms Page number 1>
La présente invention concerne un dispositif permettant l'adaptation sur tous types de véhicules automobiles, à fleur de la carrosserie, d'un bouchon de carburant personnalisé, du type aéronautique par exemple. <Desc / Clms Page number 1>
The present invention relates to a device allowing the adaptation on all types of motor vehicles, flush with the bodywork, of a personalized fuel cap, of the aeronautical type for example.
Certains propriétaires de véhicules automobiles, tels que voitures, motos, ou autres, généralement de type sport, désirant accuser ce type par la pose d'accessoires extraits des catalogues d'accessoires de compétition, tels que les bouchons de réservoir de carburant du type ASTON", MONZA"" ou AERO", il a été prévu de créer une entretoise tubulaire capable d'assurer la liaison étanche d'un tel bouchon personnalisé avec le tube de remplissage de carburant du véhicule, dont la bouche est généralement en retrait par rapport à la surface extérieure de la carrosserie, avec un bouchon plat, du type aéronautique , par exemple, qui se situera ainsi à fleur de ladite carrosserie, contribuant à affirmer le caractère sportif du véhicule. Certain owners of motor vehicles, such as cars, motorcycles, or others, generally of the sport type, wishing to accuse this type by fitting accessories extracted from catalogs of competition accessories, such as fuel tank caps of the ASTON type. ", MONZA" "or AERO", it was planned to create a tubular spacer capable of ensuring the tight connection of such a personalized cap with the vehicle's fuel filling tube, the mouth of which is generally set back from on the exterior surface of the bodywork, with a flat plug, of the aeronautical type, for example, which will thus be flush with said bodywork, contributing to affirming the sporting character of the vehicle.
Ladite entretoise tubulaire, dont le but est d'assurer ladite liaison étanche, supportera donc à son extrémité extérieure la collerette du bouchon personnalisé qui sera situé dans le plan de la surface extérieure de la carrosserie du véhicule. Et son débouché orienté vers le tube de remplissage de carburant sera adapté à ce dernier en diamètre et en orientation, pour assurer, avec l'interposition d'un joint élastique, l'étanchéité à ce niveau. Ladite entretoise tubulaire aura autant que possible la forme et le volume de l'espace de la carrosserie dans lequel se situe la bouche dudit tube de remplissage, en vue de combler ce volume. Said tubular spacer, the purpose of which is to ensure said tight connection, will therefore support at its outer end the collar of the personalized plug which will be located in the plane of the exterior surface of the vehicle body. And its outlet oriented towards the fuel filler tube will be adapted to the latter in diameter and in orientation, to ensure, with the interposition of an elastic seal, sealing at this level. Said tubular spacer will have as much as possible the shape and volume of the space of the bodywork in which the mouth of said filling tube is located, in order to fill this volume.
Or cet espace étant différent, en forme et en volume, pour chaque type de véhicule, la forme et le volume de l'entretoise tubulaire, objet de l'invention, seront donc différents pour s'adapter à chacun de ces types, ses caractéristiques sus-énoncées restant respectées. However, this space being different, in shape and in volume, for each type of vehicle, the shape and the volume of the tubular spacer, object of the invention, will therefore be different in order to adapt to each of these types, its characteristics above-mentioned remaining respected.
C'est ainsi que, à titre d'exemple les figures 1A et 1B représentent respectivement un bouchon personnalisé du type aéronautique vu de face et de profil ; les figures 2A et 2B sont les vues schématiques, respectivement de face et de profil (en coupe diamétrale, selon AA) de ladite entretoise tubulaire, selon l'invention, pour une voiture du type OPEL-CALIBRA", donnée à titre d'exemple ; les figures 3A et 3, sont les vues schématiques, respectivement de Thus, by way of example, FIGS. 1A and 1B respectively represent a personalized plug of the aeronautical type seen from the front and from the side; FIGS. 2A and 2B are the schematic views, respectively from the front and from the side (in diametral section, along AA) of said tubular spacer, according to the invention, for a car of the OPEL-CALIBRA type ", given by way of example Figures 3A and 3 are schematic views, respectively of

Selon l'invention, l'entretoise tubulaire 1 peut présenter tout volume et toute forme nécessaire pour lui permettre de s'adapter, d'une part, au type de véhicule considéré et, d'autre part, au type de bouchon personnalisé 4 que l'on désire adapter, ladite entretoise 1 étant réalisée dans le respect des caractéristiques de l'invention, à savoir : qu'elle est capable d'occuper l'espace vide qui existe sous la trappe extérieure d'une voiture où est situé le bouchon d'origine du tube de remplissage du réservoir de carburant, ladite entretoise 1 présentant un canal, ou puits tronconique 6 qui la traverse et qui comporte, à son extrémité extérieure 9, formé par sa grande base, une surface plane 2 sur laquelle est fixé le bouchon choisi 4, de type sport par exemple, de manière que la surface extérieure de ce dernier affleure la surface extérieure de la carrosserie au lieu et place de la trappe que cette dernière comportait, et, à son autre extrémité, constitué part sa petite base, un débouché 8 présentant un diamètre et une orientation capables de la faire s'adapter de façon étanche au tube de remplissage 7 du réservoir de carburant du véhicule considéré. According to the invention, the tubular spacer 1 can have any volume and any shape necessary to allow it to adapt, on the one hand, to the type of vehicle considered and, on the other hand, to the type of personalized plug 4 that it is desired to adapt, said spacer 1 being produced in compliance with the characteristics of the invention, namely: that it is capable of occupying the empty space which exists under the exterior hatch of a car where the original plug of the fuel tank filling tube, said spacer 1 having a channel, or frustoconical well 6 which passes through it and which comprises, at its outer end 9, formed by its large base, a flat surface 2 on which is fixed the chosen plug 4, of the sport type for example, so that the outer surface of the latter is flush with the outer surface of the bodywork instead of the hatch that the latter comprised, and, at its other end, constituted p art its small base, an outlet 8 having a diameter and an orientation capable of making it fit sealingly to the filling tube 7 of the fuel tank of the vehicle in question.
Donc, selon chacune des figures 2B, 3B et 4B, l'entretoise 1, dont le volume peut occuper le volume vide existant, selon le type de voiture, entre la trappe extérieure et la bouche du tube de remplissage 7 du carburant, comporte sur sa face extérieure 5 une surface plane circulaire 2 destinée à recevoir la platine 3 du bouchon 4 (fig. 1A et iB), donné comme exemple, de manière que ladite platine affleure la surface extérieure de la carrosserie, en même temps qu'elle affleure la surface extérieure 5 de ladite entretoise, dans le cas où celle-ci apparaît extérieurement. Therefore, according to each of FIGS. 2B, 3B and 4B, the spacer 1, the volume of which can occupy the existing empty volume, depending on the type of car, between the exterior hatch and the mouth of the fuel filling tube 7, comprises on its outer face 5 a circular flat surface 2 intended to receive the plate 3 of the plug 4 (fig. 1A and iB), given as an example, so that said plate is flush with the exterior surface of the bodywork, at the same time as it is flush the outer surface 5 of said spacer, in the case where it appears externally.

Le corps de ladite entretoise 1 comporte un puits 6 de forme générale tronconique, dont l'axe du tube ainsi formé relie le centre du bouchon 4 au centre du tube de remplissage 7, et dont d'une part l'extrémité extérieure constituée par la grande base 9 dudit puits tronconique 6 reçoit le bouchon 4, comme il a été dit ci-dessus, et d'autre part le débouché formé par la petite base 8 vient s'ajuster, avec interposition d'un joint d'étanchéité, non représenté, sur la bouche dudit tube de remplissage 7 de carburant. The body of said spacer 1 comprises a well 6 of generally frustoconical shape, the axis of the tube thus formed connects the center of the plug 4 to the center of the filling tube 7, and of which on the one hand the outer end formed by the large base 9 of said frustoconical well 6 receives the plug 4, as was said above, and on the other hand the outlet formed by the small base 8 is adjusted, with the interposition of a seal, not shown on the mouth of said fuel filling tube 7.
Selon la figure S, on voit, à titre d'exemple un bouchon du type aéronautique placé sur une voiture anonyme, à fleur de sa carrosserie, au moyen d'une entretoise tubulaire, objet de l'invention. According to Figure S, we see, by way of example an aeronautical type plug placed on an anonymous car, flush with its body, by means of a tubular spacer, object of the invention.
Chacune des figures, ici données à titre d'exemple, montrent qu'une entretoise 1 conforme aux caractéristiques de l'invention, utilisée pour le montage d'un bouchon personnalisé peut présenter tout volume ou toute forme nécessaire, en fonction du type de véhicule envisagé. Each of the figures, given here by way of example, shows that a spacer 1 in accordance with the characteristics of the invention, used for mounting a personalized plug can have any volume or any shape necessary, depending on the type of vehicle. considered.
Une telle entretoise comportant lesdites caractéristiques peut donc être réalisée pour l'adaptation, sur tout type de véhicule, de tout type de -. bouchon. Such a spacer comprising said characteristics can therefore be produced for the adaptation, on any type of vehicle, of any type of -. plug.
