Description

Dispositif de positionnement d'une peau de pare-chocs d'une face avant deDevice for positioning a bumper skin of a front face of

véhicule automobile. La présente invention concerne un dispositif de positionnement d'une peau de pare-chocs d'une face avant d'un véhicule automobile, ainsi qu'un véhicule automobile comportant une face avant équipée d'au moins un tel dispositif de positionnement.  motor vehicle. The present invention relates to a device for positioning a bumper skin of a front face of a motor vehicle, and a motor vehicle having a front face equipped with at least one such positioning device.

Les véhicules automobiles comportent une face avant comprenant, entre autres, deux blocs optiques qui constituent les organes d'éclairage avant du véhicule, et une peau de pare-chocs. Un des objectifs des constructeurs de véhicules automobiles réside dans la gestion des jeux et des affleurements entre les différents éléments de la carrosserie et notamment entre les blocs optiques et la peau de pare- chocs qui est très importante pour l'esthétique de la face avant du véhicule. En effet, la peau de pare-chocs doit être soutenue suivant la direction verticale et le jeu entre les blocs optiques et le rebord supérieur de cette peau de pare-chocs doit être nul ou tout du moins homogène.  Motor vehicles comprise a front face comprising, inter alia, two optical blocks which constitute the front lighting components of the vehicle, and a bumper skin. One of the objectives of motor vehicle manufacturers lies in the management of the play and the outcropping between the various elements of the bodywork and in particular between the optical blocks and the bumper skin which is very important for the aesthetics of the front face of the vehicle. vehicle. Indeed, the bumper skin must be supported in the vertical direction and the clearance between the optical blocks and the upper edge of the bumper skin must be zero or at least homogeneous.

Pour atteindre ce but, une solution consiste à utiliser une pièce intermédiaire qui vient plaquer la peau de pare-chocs sur la glace de chaque bloc optique. Cette pièce appelée le plus souvent "presseur" a pour fonction d'assurer un jeu nul en plaquant la peau de pare-chocs sur la glace de chaque bloc optique. Le document FR 2 783 797 divulgue une telle solution, les presseurs sont ici fixés en partie basse de la face avant technique du véhicule qui est elle même reliée aux extrémités avant des brancards de ce véhicule. La dispersion de la longueur de ces brancards induit une dispersion du position- nement des presseurs et donc de la peau de pare-chocs si bien que les jeux entre les blocs optiques et la peau de pare-chocs ne sont pas convenable-ment maîtrisés et constants. Afin d'améliorer la gestion des jeux entre les blocs optiques et la peau de pare-chocs, une autre solution consiste à ménager directement sur la glace de chaque bloc optique au moins un support sur lequel vient s'appli- quer un bord transversal supérieur de la peau de pare-chocs de façon à assurer un bon positionnement de cette peau dans une direction verticale. Le support est disposé au-dessous d'un rebord transversal ménagé sur la glace du bloc optique correspondant ce qui constitue un logement pour le bord supérieur de la peau de pare-chocs permettant ainsi un plaquage optimum entre la glace et le support. Mais, les constructeurs de véhicules automobiles doivent aussi gérer la notion d'absorption de l'énergie lors d'un choc à faible vitesse dit choc à "réparabilité" ou lors d'un choc dit "piéton".  To achieve this goal, one solution is to use an intermediate piece that presses the bumper skin on the ice of each optical block. This piece called the most often "pressure" has the function of ensuring a zero clearance by plating the bumper skin on the ice of each optical block. The document FR 2 783 797 discloses such a solution, the pressers are here fixed in the lower part of the technical front of the vehicle which is itself connected to the front ends of the shafts of this vehicle. The dispersion of the length of these stretches induces a dispersion of the positioning of the pressers and therefore of the bumper skin so that the gaps between the optical blocks and the bumper skin are not properly controlled and constant. In order to improve the management of the clearances between the optical blocks and the bumper skin, another solution consists in providing directly on the ice of each optical block at least one support on which is applied a top transverse edge. bumper skin so as to ensure proper positioning of this skin in a vertical direction. The support is disposed below a transverse edge formed on the ice of the corresponding optical unit which constitutes a housing for the upper edge of the bumper skin thus allowing optimum sealing between the ice and the support. But, motor vehicle manufacturers must also manage the concept of energy absorption during a low-speed shock called shock "repairability" or during a shock called "pedestrian".

A cet effet, les blocs optiques intègrent désormais des aménagements pour fragiliser la glace, par exemple par des réductions locales d'épaisseur. Or, l'ajout de la fonction de support de la peau de pare-chocs à la glace des blocs optiques génère un effet négatif pour le comportement de ces blocs optiques lors des chocs. En effet, les supports de la peau de pare-chocs constituent des protubérances qui entraînent des points durs pénalisant l'absorption de l'énergie lors des chocs. L'invention a pour but de proposer un dispositif de positionnement d'une peau de pare-chocs qui évite ces inconvénients et qui est simple à mettre en oeuvre, tout en garantissant une finition soignée et compatible avec les exigences d'absorption des chocs. L'invention a donc pour objet un dispositif de positionnement d'une peau de pare-chocs d'une face avant d'un véhicule automobile, ladite face avant comprenant, entre autres, au moins un bloc optique muni d'une glace comportant un support formant une surface d'appui dans une direction verticale d'un bord transversal de la peau de pare-chocs, caractérisé en ce que le support comprend des zones d'affaiblissement destinées à se rompre lors d'un choc au niveau du bloc optique.  For this purpose, the optical blocks now incorporate arrangements to weaken the ice, for example by local reductions in thickness. However, the addition of the support function of the bumper skin to the ice of the optical blocks generates a negative effect for the behavior of these optical blocks during shocks. Indeed, the supports of the bumper skin are protuberances that lead to hard points penalizing the absorption of energy during shocks. The object of the invention is to propose a device for positioning a bumper skin that avoids these drawbacks and that is simple to implement, while guaranteeing a neat finish and compatible with the shock absorbing requirements. The invention therefore relates to a device for positioning a bumper skin of a front face of a motor vehicle, said front face comprising, inter alia, at least one optical unit provided with an ice having a support forming a bearing surface in a vertical direction of a transverse edge of the bumper skin, characterized in that the support comprises weakening zones intended to break during an impact at the optical block .

Selon d'autres caractéristiques de l'invention : - chaque zone d'affaiblissement est formée par une ligne de plus faible épaisseur sensiblement verticale, - le support comprend une excroissance creuse de forme sensible-ment parallélépipédique comportant une face avant et deux faces latérales, - les rebords supérieurs de la face avant et des deux faces latérales de ladite au moins excroissance forment ladite surface d'appui, - les faces latérales de ladite au moins excroissance comportent les zones d'affaiblissement, - une zone d'affaiblissement est disposée à chaque intersection entre la face avant et les faces latérales de ladite au moins excroissance. L'invention concerne également un véhicule automobile, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une face avant équipée d'au moins un dispositif de po- sitionnement tel que précédemment mentionné. D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description qui va suivre, donnée à titre d'exemple et faite en référence aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels : - la Fig. 1 est une vue schématique en perspective d'une face avant d'un véhicule automobile, - la Fig. 2 est une vue partielle en perspective d'un bloc optique de la face avant et comportant un dispositif de positionnement, conforme à l'invention, - la Fig. 3 est une vue schématique à plus grande échelle représentant une coupe transversale d'un support d'une peau de pare-chocs de la face avant, et - les Figs. 4 et 5 sont des vues schématiques de dessus du support montrant le comportement de ce support lors d'un choc.  According to other characteristics of the invention: each weakening zone is formed by a line of lesser thickness substantially vertical; the support comprises a hollow protuberance of substantially parallelepipedal shape comprising a front face and two lateral faces, the upper flanges of the front face and the two lateral faces of the said at least one protrusion form the said bearing surface; the lateral faces of the said at least one growth comprise the zones of weakness; a weakening zone is arranged at each intersection between the front face and the lateral faces of said at least one outgrowth. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle, characterized in that it comprises a front face equipped with at least one positioning device as previously mentioned. Other features and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the following description, given by way of example and with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a schematic perspective view of a front face of a motor vehicle, FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of an optical block of the front face and comprising a positioning device according to the invention; FIG. 3 is an enlarged schematic view showing a cross-section of a support of a bumper skin of the front face, and FIGS. 4 and 5 are schematic top views of the support showing the behavior of this support during an impact.

Sur la Fig. 1, on a représenté schématiquement en partie une face avant 1 d'un véhicule automobile qui comprend, entre autres, au moins un bloc optique 2 et de préférence deux blocs optiques 2 comportant chacun, de manière classique, un boîtier 3 et une glace 4. Ainsi que montré à la Fig. 2, la glace 4 de chaque bloc optique 2 comporte un rebord transversal 5. La face avant 1 représentée à la Fig. 1 comprend également une peau de pare-chocs 6 qui s'étend sur toute la largeur de cette face avant au-dessous des deux blocs optiques 2 et qui comporte un bord transversal supérieur 7. Pour gérer les jeux et les affleurements entre les blocs optiques 2 et la peau de pare-chocs 6, la face avant 1 est équipée de dispositifs de posi- tionnement qui comprennent, pour chaque bloc optique 2, au moins un support désigné par la référence générale 10. D'une manière générale, le support 10 comprend des zones d'affaiblissement 12 destinées à se rompre lors d'un choc au niveau du bloc optique 2.  In FIG. 1, there is shown schematically in part a front face 1 of a motor vehicle which comprises, inter alia, at least one optical block 2 and preferably two optical blocks 2 each comprising, in a conventional manner, a housing 3 and an ice cream 4 As shown in FIG. 2, the window 4 of each optical block 2 has a transverse flange 5. The front face 1 shown in FIG. 1 also comprises a bumper skin 6 which extends over the entire width of this front face below the two optical blocks 2 and which has an upper transverse edge 7. To manage the games and the outcrops between the optical blocks 2 and the bumper skin 6, the front face 1 is equipped with positioning devices which comprise, for each optical unit 2, at least one support designated by the general reference 10. In general, the support 10 comprises weakening zones 12 intended to break during an impact at the optical block 2.

Comme montré notamment sur les Figs. 2 et 3, le support 10 est formé par au moins une excroissance 11 rapportée directement sur le bloc op-tique 2 et notamment sur la glace 4 au-dessous du rebord transversal 5. Dans l'exemple de réalisation représenté à la Fig. 2, la glace 4 de chaque bloc optique 2 comporte, au-dessous du rebord 5, deux excroissances 11 qui sont venues de matière avec la glace 4. Bien évidemment, ces excroissances 11 peuvent être également des pièces rapportées et fixées de manière appropriée sur la glace 4. Chaque excroissance 11 est creuse et présente une forme sensible-ment parallélépipédique comportant une face avant 11a et deux faces laté- raies 11 b. Ainsi, l'excroissance 11 est dépourvue de paroi supérieure et de paroi inférieure. Les rebords supérieurs de la face avant 11 a et des deux faces latérales 11b de chaque excroissance 11 forment la surface d'appui du rebord transversal supérieur 7 de la peau de pare-chocs 6, dans la direction verti- cale. Afin de rendre les excroissances Il compatibles avec une absorption de l'énergie lors d'un choc à faible vitesse ou lors d'un choc piéton, les faces latérales 11 b de chaque excroissance 11 comportent des zones d'affaiblissement qui sont formées par des lignes 12 de plus faible épaisseur. Chaque ligne 12 est sensiblement verticale et une ligne 12 est disposée à chaque intersection entre la face avant 11 a et les faces latérales 11 b de chaque ex-croissance 11.  As shown in particular in FIGS. 2 and 3, the support 10 is formed by at least one protrusion 11 attached directly to the optical block 2 and in particular to the window 4 below the transverse flange 5. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, the ice 4 of each optical block 2 comprises, beneath the flange 5, two protuberances 11 which are integrally formed with the ice 4. Obviously, these protrusions 11 may also be inserts and appropriately fixed on 4. Each protrusion 11 is hollow and has a substantially parallelepipedal shape with a front face 11a and two side faces 11b. Thus, the protrusion 11 is devoid of upper wall and lower wall. The upper flanges of the front face 11a and the two side faces 11b of each protrusion 11 form the bearing surface of the upper transverse flange 7 of the bumper skin 6, in the vertical direction. In order to make the excrescences II compatible with an energy absorption during a low-speed impact or during a pedestrian impact, the lateral faces 11b of each protrusion 11 comprise zones of weakness which are formed by lines 12 of smaller thickness. Each line 12 is substantially vertical and a line 12 is disposed at each intersection between the front face 11a and the side faces 11b of each ex-growth 11.

Ainsi et comme représenté sur les Figs. 4 et 5, lors d'un choc, l'ex-croissance 11 se comporte comme un accordéon en se repliant sur elle-même. Cette excroissance 11 ne représente plus un point dur physique et ne transmet plus d'effort.  Thus and as shown in Figs. 4 and 5, during a shock, the former growth 11 behaves like an accordion by folding on itself. This protrusion 11 no longer represents a physical hard point and no longer transmits effort.

De plus, la rupture de chaque excroissance 11 lors d'un choc entraîne une absorption partielle de l'effort ce qui contribue à protéger le reste de l'environnement du véhicule ainsi qu'à protéger un piéton lorsqu'il se produit un tel choc. Enfin, chaque excroissance 11 assure la tenue de la peau de pare-10 chocs dans une direction sensiblement verticale.  In addition, the rupture of each protrusion 11 during an impact causes a partial absorption of the force which helps to protect the rest of the vehicle environment and to protect a pedestrian when such a shock occurs. . Finally, each protrusion 11 ensures the resistance of the bumper skin in a substantially vertical direction.
