PANNEAU DE GARNITURE AVEC CAVITE DE RANGEMENT SUPPLEMENTAIRE POUR VEHICULETRIM PANEL WITH ADDITIONAL STORAGE CAVITY FOR VEHICLE
AUTOMOBILEAUTOMOBILE
La présente invention concerne un panneau de garniture destiné à l'habillage de l'habitacle d'un véhicule automobile, le panneau comportant un accoudoir et une cavité de rangement. The present invention relates to a trim panel for the upholstery of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, the panel comprising an armrest and a storage cavity.
Un des objectifs principaux des constructeurs automobiles est d'accroître le confort des passagers. Les accoudoirs et les dispositifs de rangement font partie des accessoires participant à l'élévation du niveau de confort. L'idéal est que chaque passager puisse disposer d'un accoudoir de part et d'autre de son siège. Ainsi, les garnitures habillant les portes incorporent de plus en plus fréquemment des accoudoirs, de même que la console centrale et le dossier de la banquette arrière. Cependant, la surface d'appui des accoudoirs, notamment des accoudoirs latéraux des portes, est souvent étroite de façon à ne pas trop empiéter sur l'espace disponible pour s'asseoir et donc pour ne pas trop diminuer cet espace. One of the main goals of automakers is to increase passenger comfort. The armrests and storage devices are part of the accessories involved in raising the level of comfort. The ideal is that each passenger can have an armrest on both sides of his seat. Thus, the trim of the doors incorporates more and more frequently armrests, as well as the center console and backrest of the back seat. However, the support surface of the armrests, including side armrests doors, is often narrow so as not to encroach on the space available to sit and therefore not to reduce too much space.
Quant aux dispositifs de rangement, les constructeurs automobiles utilisent la plupart des espaces libres permettant de créer des compartiments de rangement ou vide-poches, tels que le dessous des sièges, la partie interne du tableau de bord située en face du passager avant, les espaces situés en dessous du tableau de bord, l'intérieur des accoudoirs ou encore les panneaux de garniture des portes. Les constructeurs ne cessent de créer de nouveaux espaces de rangement afin de rendre plus agréable les déplacements automobiles. As for the storage devices, the car manufacturers use most of the free spaces to create storage compartments or storage pockets, such as the underside of the seats, the inner part of the dashboard located in front of the front passenger, the spaces located below the dashboard, the inside of the armrests or the door trim panels. Builders are constantly creating new storage spaces to make car travel more enjoyable.
La présente invention a pour but à la fois de créer un nouvel espace de rangement et d'augmenter le confort des passagers, en améliorant le confort des accoudoirs. The present invention aims to both create a new storage space and increase the comfort of passengers, improving the comfort of the armrests.
De façon plus précise, la présente invention concerne un panneau de garniture destiné à l'habillage de l'habitacle d'un véhicule 2888799 2 automobile, du type comportant un accoudoir. Selon l'invention, le panneau de garniture comporte un renfoncement au niveau de l'accoudoir, le renfoncement étant situé entre l'accoudoir et la paroi interne du panneau formant ainsi avec l'accoudoir une cavité de rangement. More specifically, the present invention relates to a trim panel for the upholstery of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle 2888799 2, of the type comprising an armrest. According to the invention, the trim panel has a recess in the armrest, the recess being located between the armrest and the inner wall of the panel thus forming a storage cavity with the armrest.
La partie supérieure dudit renfoncement se situe avantageusement audessus de l'élément d'appui de l'accoudoir de façon à dégager une ouverture d'accès à ladite cavité de rangement et à augmenter le confort de l'accoudoir. The upper part of said recess is advantageously above the support element of the armrest so as to release an access opening to said storage cavity and to increase the comfort of the armrest.
Ladite cavité de rangement peut être fermée à l'aide d'un couvercle, lequel est avantageusement sensiblement horizontal et se situe à la même hauteur que l'élément d'appui de l'accoudoir de façon à agrandir la surface d'appui de l'accoudoir. Said storage cavity can be closed by means of a lid, which is advantageously substantially horizontal and is located at the same height as the support element of the armrest so as to enlarge the support surface of the 'armrest.
D'autres avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui suit d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention, donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif, en référence aux dessins annexés et sur lesquels: - la figure 1 montre en perspective un mode de réalisation de la cavité de rangement créée selon l'invention, et - la figure 2 montre en coupe verticale la cavité de rangement de la figure 1 et son environnement. Other advantages and features of the invention will become apparent from the following description of an embodiment of the invention, given by way of non-limiting example, with reference to the appended drawings and in which: FIG. 1 shows in perspective an embodiment of the storage cavity created according to the invention, and - Figure 2 shows in vertical section the storage cavity of Figure 1 and its environment.
Le mode de réalisation représenté sur la figure 1 correspond à une cavité de rangement 10 créée selon l'invention derrière l'accoudoir 12 de la paroi latérale interne 14 de l'habitacle d'un véhicule automobile. Pour ce mode de réalisation, l'accoudoir est destiné à recevoir l'avant-bras droit d'un passager s'asseyant dans le véhicule sur un siège arrière droit 16 (ou partie de banquette arrière droite). Un espace de rangement 18 est agencé de façon classique dans la paroi latérale 14. The embodiment shown in Figure 1 corresponds to a storage cavity 10 created according to the invention behind the armrest 12 of the inner side wall 14 of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. For this embodiment, the armrest is intended to receive the right forearm of a passenger sitting in the vehicle in a right rear seat 16 (or portion of the right rear seat). A storage space 18 is conventionally arranged in the side wall 14.
2888799 3 La figure 2 représente en coupe verticale le mode de réalisation de la figure 1. Le côté d'habitacle 20 peut être une porte latérale, pivotante ou coulissante, ou une partie immobile dans le cas d'un véhicule à deux portes latérales, par exemple du type coupé ou cabriolet. Ce côté d'habitacle se compose principalement d'une vitre 22, d'une tôle extérieure 24 de la carrosserie et d'une feuille d'étanchéité 26. Cette dernière est masquée, du côté du siège 28 et donc de l'habitacle, par un panneau de garniture intérieur 30, désigné habituellement par "panneau de brisement". Ce panneau est formé de plusieurs pièces, de haut en bas 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 et 42, fixées les unes aux autres pour former l'habillage intérieur de la tôle de la carrosserie du véhicule. Ces pièces peuvent par exemple être moulées et réalisées en plastique. Le panneau 30 forme un renfoncement 44, la pièce 34 s'inclinant vers l'extérieur du véhicule (vers la feuille d'étanchéité 26) et se prolongeant par une partie sensiblement verticale. L'extrémité inférieure de cette partie verticale est soudée à l'extrémité inférieure de la pièce 36 qui a la forme d'une équerre à environ 90 degrés. Les deux pièces 34 et 36 forment ainsi une cavité de rangement 46. FIG. 2 represents in vertical section the embodiment of FIG. 1. The cockpit side 20 may be a side door, pivoting or sliding, or a stationary part in the case of a vehicle with two side doors, for example of the coupe or cabriolet type. This cockpit side consists mainly of a window 22, an outer sheet 24 of the body and a sealing sheet 26. The latter is hidden, on the side of the seat 28 and therefore the cockpit, by an interior trim panel 30, usually referred to as a "breakout board". This panel is formed of several parts, from top to bottom 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42, fixed to each other to form the inner lining of the sheet metal of the vehicle body. These parts may for example be molded and made of plastic. The panel 30 forms a recess 44, the piece 34 inclining towards the outside of the vehicle (towards the sealing sheet 26) and extending by a substantially vertical portion. The lower end of this vertical portion is welded to the lower end of the piece 36 which has the shape of a bracket at about 90 degrees. The two parts 34 and 36 thus form a storage cavity 46.
Les pièces 36, 38 et 40 soudées entre elles forment un accoudoir 48, la pièce 38 étant sensiblement horizontale et constituant l'élément d'appui destiné à recevoir l'avant-bras du passager. The parts 36, 38 and 40 welded together form an armrest 48, the part 38 being substantially horizontal and constituting the support element for receiving the forearm of the passenger.
La pièce 42 forme avec la pièce 40 un espace de rangement 25 50. Le passager dispose ainsi de deux espaces de rangement 46 et 50. Room 42 forms with room 40 a storage space 25 50. The passenger thus has two storage spaces 46 and 50.
La cavité de rangement 46 est située, vue depuis l'habitacle, derrière l'accoudoir 48 ou, autrement dit, entre la paroi interne de la pièce 34 du panneau de garniture 30 et l'accoudoir 48. Le renflement 44 de la pièce 34 est situé plus haut que l'élément d'appui 38 de 2888799 4 façon à dégager une ouverture suffisante permettant d'accéder à la cavité 46. De plus, l'accoudoir n'étant pas appliqué contre le panneau de garniture, le passager dispose de plus de place pour placer son avant-bras, ce qui améliore le confort de l'accoudoir. L'accès à la cavité 46 peut être fermé ou ouvert à l'aide d'un couvercle (non représenté). Dans ce cas, le couvercle peut de préférence être positionné à la même hauteur que l'élément d'appui 38 et être sensiblement horizontale. La surface d'appui est ainsi augmentée ce qui améliore encore le confort de l'accoudoir. The storage cavity 46 is located, viewed from the passenger compartment, behind the armrest 48 or, in other words, between the inner wall of the piece 34 of the trim panel 30 and the armrest 48. The bulge 44 of the piece 34 is located higher than the support element 38 of 2888799 4 way to clear a sufficient opening to access the cavity 46. In addition, the armrest is not applied against the trim panel, the passenger has more room to place his forearm, which improves the comfort of the armrest. Access to the cavity 46 may be closed or opened with a lid (not shown). In this case, the cover may preferably be positioned at the same height as the support element 38 and be substantially horizontal. The support surface is thus increased which further improves the comfort of the armrest.
Le mode de réalisation décrit en regard des figures 1 et 2 n'est qu'un exemple de mise en oeuvre de l'invention et des modifications peuvent y être apportées sans sortir du cadre de cette invention. Par exemple, l'accès à la cavité 46 s'effectue par le haut; il est bien évident que cet accès pourrait être fermé et remplacé par une ouverture dans le panneau de garniture à l'avant ou à l'arrière de l'accoudoir. De même, l'élément d'appui 38 pourrait être monté pivotant autour d'un axe horizontal fixé sur l'un de ses côtés, perpendiculairement ou parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du véhicule, offrant ainsi un nouvel espace de rangement à l'intérieur de l'accoudoir. Le panneau de garniture ou de brisement 30 pourrait aussi être réalisé en une seule pièe moulée en plastique. The embodiment described with reference to Figures 1 and 2 is only an example of implementation of the invention and modifications can be made without departing from the scope of this invention. For example, access to the cavity 46 is from the top; it is obvious that this access could be closed and replaced by an opening in the trim panel at the front or back of the armrest. Similarly, the support member 38 could be pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis fixed on one of its sides, perpendicularly or parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, thus providing a new storage space to the inside the armrest. The trim or shatter panel 30 could also be made of a single molded plastic part.
Au vu du mode de réalisation décrit, il est apparent que la présente invention permet d'accroître les zones de rangement dans les véhicules automobiles tout en améliorant le confort des accoudoirs. De plus, elle offre une accessibilité rapide et aisée à ces rangements. In view of the embodiment described, it is apparent that the present invention allows to increase the storage areas in motor vehicles while improving the comfort of the armrests. In addition, it provides quick and easy access to these storage.
