Description

L'invention concerne les enjoliveurs de roues de véhiculesThe invention relates to wheel covers for vehicles

automobiles, mais plus généralement tout enjoliveur, voire tout élément de couverture, de protection et de décoration.  automobiles, but more generally any hubcap, or even any element of cover, protection and decoration.

Un enjoliveur de roue de véhicule, pour prendre cet exemple, 5 est destiné à masquer sa jante. Il comporte un flasque et une virole concentrique solidaire du flasque.  A vehicle wheel cover, to take this example, 5 is intended to hide its rim. It includes a flange and a concentric ferrule integral with the flange.

Le flasque peut supporter un motif central caractéristique de la marque du véhicule. La virole est une décoration périphérique de l'enjoliveur et est seulement caractéristique du modèle de véhicule.  The flange can support a central motif characteristic of the make of the vehicle. The ferrule is a peripheral decoration of the hubcap and is only characteristic of the vehicle model.

On connaît les enjoliveurs fixés par des clips solidaires de la virole et engagés dans des gorges prévues sur les jantes.  We know the hubcaps fixed by clips secured to the shell and engaged in grooves provided on the rims.

Les clips sont maintenus engagés dans les gorges par des joncs annulaires d'écartement.  The clips are kept engaged in the grooves by annular spacing rods.

Le montage ou le démontage des enjoliveurs peut être effectué 15 manuellement, en provoquant l'engagement des clips dans la gorge ou, à l'aide d'un outils, leur dégagement de cette gorge par action sur le jonc.  The mounting or dismounting of the hubcaps can be carried out manually, by causing the clips to be engaged in the groove or, using a tool, their release from this groove by action on the rod.

Pour fabriquer un enjoliveur, on peut le mouler en une seule partie. Mais les chaînes de fabrication sont de capacité de production limitée au nombre de roues des véhicules de même modèle à équiper, donc 20 de faible capacité et donc d'un coût de fabrication et d'exploitation élevés, ce qui conduit à des coûts de fabrication d'enjoliveurs élevés.  To make a hubcap, it can be molded in a single part. However, the production lines have a production capacity limited to the number of wheels of vehicles of the same model to be equipped, therefore of low capacity and therefore of a high manufacturing and operating cost, which leads to manufacturing costs. high hubcaps.

On peut aussi mouler le flasque, puis surmouler la virole. On peut aussi procéder en effectuant des marouflages. Mais ces opérations offrent des possibilités de combinaisons réduites et sont aussi très 25 coûteuses.  You can also mold the flange, then overmold the ferrule. One can also proceed by carrying out masking. However, these operations offer possibilities of reduced combinations and are also very expensive.

Par ailleurs, les enjoliveurs peuvent être fabriqués et diffusés indépendamment des constructeurs de véhicules, donc de leurs marques, par exemple par les réseaux de distribution de grandes surfaces.  In addition, hubcaps can be manufactured and distributed independently of vehicle manufacturers, and therefore of their brands, for example through distribution networks of large surfaces.

Par ce canal, les propriétaires de véhicules peuvent personnaliser leur véhicule en choisissant les enjoliveurs de leurs roues.  Via this channel, vehicle owners can personalize their vehicle by choosing the wheel covers.

La demanderesse a alors eu l'idée de son invention en réalisant 5 que la diminution des coûts de fabrication des enjoliveurs de roues passait autant par l'augmentation de capacité de production des chaînes de fabrication que par multiplication des choix offerts aux propriétaires.  The Applicant then came up with the idea of his invention by realizing that the reduction in the costs of manufacturing wheel trims went as much through the increase in production capacity of the production lines as through the multiplication of the choices offered to the owners.

Ainsi, l'invention concerne un enjoliveur de roue comportant une virole et un flasque, caractérisé par le fait que: - le flasque est fixé de façon détachable à la virole, - la virole étant universelle et agencée pour recevoir une pluralité d'autres flasques.  Thus, the invention relates to a wheel cover comprising a ferrule and a flange, characterized in that: - the flange is detachably fixed to the ferrule, - the ferrule being universal and arranged to receive a plurality of other flanges .

Ainsi, on peut fabriquer des viroles et des flasques sans préjuger ni le modèle ni la marque ni même la distribution des enjoliveurs, 15 avec le grand avantage d'augmenter les possibilités de choix des combinaisons de flasques et de viroles et les capacités de production des chaînes de fabrication.  Thus, ferrules and flanges can be manufactured without prejudging either the model or the brand or even the distribution of the hubcaps, with the great advantage of increasing the possibilities of choice of the combinations of flanges and ferrules and the production capacities of the production lines.

De préférence, il est prévu des moyens de fixation intermédiaires agencés pour être fixés sur la virole et pour y fixer le flasque.  Preferably, intermediate fixing means are provided which are arranged to be fixed to the ferrule and to fix the flange thereon.

De préférence encore, lesdits moyens de fixation sont agencés pour être fixés serrés sur la virole par fixation du flasque sur lesdits moyens de fixation.  More preferably, said fixing means are arranged to be fixed tight on the ferrule by fixing the flange to said fixing means.

Avantageusement, lesdits moyens de fixation comportent un clips pour être fixés au flasque et une butée pour serrer la virole sur le 25 flasque.  Advantageously, said fixing means comprise a clip to be fixed to the flange and a stop to tighten the ferrule on the flange.

Le montage du flasque sur la virole ne nécessite pas d'outils de serrage.  The mounting of the flange on the ferrule does not require any tightening tools.

Avantageusement encore, la roue comportant une jante, les moyens de fixation sont agencés pour fixer l'enjoliveur sur la jante.  Advantageously also, the wheel comprising a rim, the fixing means are arranged to fix the hubcap on the rim.

L'invention concerne aussi un flasque d'enjoliveur destiné à former l'enjoliveur de l'invention, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte des s moyens de fixation des moyens de fixation intermédiaires agencés pour être fixés sur la virole.  The invention also relates to a flange of the hubcap intended to form the hubcap of the invention, characterized in that it comprises means for fixing the intermediate fixing means arranged to be fixed to the shell.

L'invention concerne encore une virole d'enjoliveur destiné à former l'enjoliveur de l'invention, caractérisé par le fait qu'elle comporte des ouvertures de passage de moyens de fixation intermédiaires agencés l0 pour être fixés sur la virole et pour y fixer le flasque.  The invention also relates to a hubcap ferrule intended to form the hubcap of the invention, characterized in that it comprises openings for the passage of intermediate fixing means arranged 10 to be fixed to the ferrule and to fix it the flange.

L'invention concerne enfin un clip de fixation intermédiaire d'une virole et d'un flasque destinés à former l'enjoliveur de l'invention, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte un clip de fixation du flasque et une butée de fixation de la virole.  The invention finally relates to an intermediate fixing clip for a ferrule and a flange intended to form the hubcap of the invention, characterized in that it comprises a clip for fixing the flange and a fixing stop for the ferrule.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description suivante de la forme de réalisation préférée de l'enjoliveur de l'invention, en référence au dessin annexé sur lequel: - la figure 1 représente une vue en coupe axiale d'une roue de véhicule; - la figure 2 est une vue perspective éclatée de la face avant de l'enjoliveur selon l'invention; - la figure 3 est une vue en coupe illustrant la fixation d'un enjoliveur sur la jante d'une roue selon l'invention et - la figure 4 est une vue perspective d'un clip de fixation 25 intermédiaire de l'enjoliveur selon l'invention.  The invention will be better understood using the following description of the preferred embodiment of the hubcap of the invention, with reference to the accompanying drawing in which: - Figure 1 shows an axial sectional view of a vehicle wheel; - Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view of the front face of the hubcap according to the invention; - Figure 3 is a sectional view illustrating the attachment of a hubcap to the rim of a wheel according to the invention and - Figure 4 is a perspective view of an intermediate fixing clip 25 of the hubcap according to l 'invention.

En référence à la figure 1, une roue de véhicule 10 d'axe 5 comporte un pneumatique 1 1 monté sur une jante 15, et un enjoliveur 50.  With reference to FIG. 1, a vehicle wheel 10 with an axis 5 comprises a tire 1 1 mounted on a rim 15, and a cover 50.

De façon générale, un enjoliveur comporte un flasque 30 et une virole 20 ordinairement solidaire du flasque. Il est fixé à lajante grâce à des bras 21 solidaires du flasque 20, sensiblement perpendiculaires à son plan, supportant en leur extrémité libre un jonc 60 annulaire d'écartement, pour 5 écarter et maintenir cette extrémité libre encastrée dans une gorge annulaire 13 de lajante.  In general, a hubcap comprises a flange 30 and a ferrule 20 usually secured to the flange. It is fixed to the rim by means of arms 21 integral with the flange 20, substantially perpendicular to its plane, supporting at their free end an annular ring 60 of spacing, in order to spread and keep this free end embedded in an annular groove 13 of the rim .

En référence à la figure 2, l'enjoliveur 50 de l'invention comporte un flasque 30 et une virole 20.  With reference to FIG. 2, the hubcap 50 of the invention comprises a flange 30 and a ferrule 20.

La virole 20 est détachable du flasque 30, mais comporte un plan lo de pose annulaire 24 dans lequel sont prévues des ouvertures 26 permettant d'y fixer une pluralité de flasques.  The ferrule 20 is detachable from the flange 30, but has an annular laying plane 24 in which there are openings 26 allowing a plurality of flanges to be fixed there.

La virole est en outre conformée pour conserver une tenue mécanique suffisamment rigide grâce à son caractère ornemental et aussi, en complément, à une couronne annulaire 23, à l'arrière de l'enjoliveur, 15 présentant une conicité suffisante.  The ferrule is further shaped to maintain a sufficiently rigid mechanical strength thanks to its ornamental nature and also, in addition, to an annular ring 23, at the rear of the hubcap, having a sufficient taper.

Les bras 21, servant dans l'art antérieur à fixer la virole sur la jante, sont ici remplacés par des clips 40 de fixation intermédiaire, destinés à assurer la fixation du flasque sur la virole et de la virole, et donc de l'enjoliveur sur la jante.  The arms 21, used in the prior art to fix the ferrule on the rim, are here replaced by clips 40 for intermediate fixing, intended to ensure the fixing of the flange on the ferrule and of the ferrule, and therefore of the hubcap on the rim.

Chaque clip de fixation intermédiaire 40 comporte un premier bras 43 et un second bras 44, les deux bras étant dans le prolongement l'un de l'autre et séparés par une butée transversale 41.  Each intermediate fixing clip 40 has a first arm 43 and a second arm 44, the two arms being in the extension of one another and separated by a transverse stop 41.

Le premier bras 43, à son extrémité opposée au deuxième bras, comporte une gorge 45 et un bec 46 pour y maintenir encastré un jonc 25 annulaire d'écartement 60. Le second bras 44 comporte un clip latéral 42.  The first arm 43, at its end opposite the second arm, has a groove 45 and a spout 46 for holding therein an annular rod 25 of spacing 60. The second arm 44 has a lateral clip 42.

Sur sa périphérie, en regard de la couronne 24 lorsqu'il est fixé sur la virole, et plus précisément en regard de chaque ouverture 26, le flasque 30 comporte, à l'intérieur, sur sa face non visible, une paire d'entretoises 33 formant un logement 31 de largeur très légèrement supérieure à l'épaisseur du second bras 44 du clip de fixation 40. Au moins une des entretoises 33 de chaque paire comporte un orifice 32 agencé pour s que tout clip 42 s'y loge et fixe ainsi le clip de fixation 41 sur le flasque.  On its periphery, facing the crown 24 when it is fixed on the ferrule, and more precisely facing each opening 26, the flange 30 has, on the inside, on its non-visible face, a pair of spacers 33 forming a housing 31 of width very slightly greater than the thickness of the second arm 44 of the fixing clip 40. At least one of the spacers 33 of each pair has an orifice 32 arranged so that any clip 42 is housed there and fixed thus the fixing clip 41 on the flange.

Pour assembler le flasque et la virole sur la jante, en référence à la figure 4, on a prévu une pluralité de clips 40 de fixation.  To assemble the flange and the ferrule on the rim, with reference to FIG. 4, a plurality of fixing clips 40 have been provided.

Le flasque 30 est agencé pour être fixé sur la virole 20 par les clips 42 des clips de fixation 40 de la façon suivante: on insère dans les io logements 31 les seconds bras 44 des clips de fixation 40, les clips 42 s'insérant, eux, dans les orifices 32 de l'une des entretoises 33.  The flange 30 is arranged to be fixed to the ferrule 20 by the clips 42 of the fixing clips 40 as follows: the second arms 44 of the fixing clips 40 are inserted into the housings 31, the clips 42 being inserted, them, in the orifices 32 of one of the spacers 33.

Pour l'assemblage de la virole 20 et du flasque 30, les clips de fixation 40 sont introduits dans les ouvertures 26 de la virole, comme on peut voir sur la figure 3, les entretoises 33 étant du côté avant de la virole. 15 Les clips de fixation 40 ne peuvent plus s'échapper de cette ouverture à cause de leur butée 41 et de leur clip 42.  For the assembly of the ferrule 20 and the flange 30, the fixing clips 40 are introduced into the openings 26 of the ferrule, as can be seen in FIG. 3, the spacers 33 being on the front side of the ferrule. The fixing clips 40 can no longer escape from this opening because of their stop 41 and their clip 42.

Ainsi, les clips de fixation 40 sont agencés pour être fixés serré sur la virole 20, par fixation du flasque 30 sur les clips 40. En outre, les ouvertures 26 de la virole 20 permettent la fixation des clips 40 sur le 20 flasque 30 à travers la virole 20.  Thus, the fixing clips 40 are arranged to be fixed tightly on the ferrule 20, by fixing the flange 30 on the clips 40. In addition, the openings 26 of the ferrule 20 allow the clips 40 to be fixed on the flange 30 to through the ferrule 20.

L'assemblage étant terminé, on peut procéder au montage de l'enjoliveur sur la roue de façon classique.  The assembly being finished, one can proceed to the mounting of the hubcap on the wheel in a conventional manner.

Les clips 42, dans cette première forme de réalisation, sont élastiques pour se déformer suffisamment et pouvoir pénétrer dans les 25 logements 31 par forçage avant de se loger dans les orifices 32.  The clips 42, in this first embodiment, are elastic to deform sufficiently and to be able to penetrate the housings 31 by forcing before being housed in the orifices 32.

Ils peuvent aussi, dans une seconde forme de réalisation, être rigides, à condition de prévoir une fixation du type "baïonnette" du flasque sur la virole équipée des clips de fixation intermédiaires.  They can also, in a second embodiment, be rigid, provided that a fixing of the "bayonet" type of the flange is provided on the ferrule equipped with intermediate fixing clips.

Il suffit de ménager, dans l'entretoise 33 dans laquelle est l'orifice 32, un chemin d'accès depuis son bord libre jusqu'à l'orifice 32, chemin qu'on fait emprunter au clip 41 par une translation de mise en appui 5 des entretoises sur la couronne de la virole puis une rotation du flasque autour de l'axe 5 amenant le clip dans l'orifice. La fixation des clips de fixation intermédiaires peut être obtenue par un moyen similaire.  It suffices to provide, in the spacer 33 in which is the orifice 32, an access path from its free edge to the orifice 32, path which is made to borrow the clip 41 by a translation of setting support 5 of the spacers on the crown of the ferrule then a rotation of the flange around the axis 5 bringing the clip into the orifice. The fixing of the intermediate fixing clips can be obtained by a similar means.
