Description

OUTIL DE BOUTEROLLAGE ET PIECE, TEL QU'UN PARE-CHOCS, EQUIPEE D'UN TELTOOL FOR BOUTEROLLAGE AND PIECE, SUCH AS A BUMPER, EQUIPPED WITH SUCH

OUTILTOOL

La présente invention concerne un outil pour bouteroller et une 5 pièce, tel qu'un pare-chocs, équipée d'un tel outil.  The present invention relates to a tool for a bouteroller and a part, such as a bumper, equipped with such a tool.

Un pare-chocs moderne est constitué d'un large panneau en matière plastique sur lequel est assemblé de nombreuses pièces rapportées, telles que par exemple une grille d'entrée d'air (pour un 10 pare-chocs avant), des enjoliveurs, des optiques, des capteurs, etc.  A modern bumper consists of a large plastic panel on which is assembled many inserts, such as for example an air inlet grille (for a front bumper), hubcaps, optical, sensors, etc.

Ces pièces rapportées sont assemblées sur le panneau formant le corps du pare-chocs par différents systèmes : par collage, encliquetage dans des formes complémentaires prévues sur le 15 panneau, ou encore, et de plus en plus, par bouterollage .  These inserts are assembled on the panel forming the body of the bumper by different systems: by gluing, latching in complementary shapes provided on the panel, or, and more and more, by pegging.

L'assemblage par bouterollage consiste à faire pénétrer une partie en saillie du panneau, réalisée par exemple sous la forme d'une languette, dans une ouverture débouchante correspondante de la 20 pièce à assembler, puis à chauffer l'extrémité de cette languette qui s'étend hors de l'ouverture de façon à rendre le plastique malléable puis ensuite à conformer ladite extrémité ainsi chauffée pour réaliser une forme épaissie plus large que ladite ouverture interdisant après refroidissement le retrait de ladite languette et 25 assemblant ainsi ladite pièce contre le panneau à la manière d'un rivet.  The assembly by pegging is to penetrate a protruding portion of the panel, made for example in the form of a tongue, in a corresponding through opening of the part to be assembled, then to heat the end of this tab which extends out of the opening so as to make the plastic malleable and then to conform said heated end to a thickened shape wider than said opening prohibiting after cooling the removal of said tongue and thereby assembling said piece against the panel. the way of a rivet.

Les usines qui fabriquent les pare-chocs sont équipées de machines appropriées combinant notamment les opérations de 30 chauffage, par exemple par ultrasons, et de pressage pour assurer un tel bouterollage. De telle machines ne sont pas adaptées pour les garages et autres ateliers de réparation où les opérateurs  The factories which manufacture the bumpers are equipped with appropriate machines combining, in particular, the heating operations, for example by ultrasound, and pressing to ensure such jamming. Such machines are not suitable for garages and other repair shops where operators

doivent se débrouiller avec les moyens du borde et des outils inadaptés pour réaliser des réparations nécessitant des opérations de bouterollage, par exemple lors du remplacement de grilles d'entrée d'air sur des pare-chocs avant.  have to cope with the means of the edge and tools unsuitable for making repairs requiring stabbing operations, for example when replacing air intake grilles on front bumpers.

La présente invention se propose de concevoir un outil portatif qui soit à la fois simple et efficace pour permettre d'opérer aisément la déformation de la matière préalablement chauffées lors d'une opération de bouterollage. En particulier, cet outil est adapté pour venir déformer la matière plastique ramollie du panneau sans risquer l'adhésion de la matière plastique fondue audit outil, adhésion qui aurait pour conséquence, la perte de matière et de là, l'impossibilité d'épaissir correctement l'extrémité de la languette pour immobiliser cette dernière.  The present invention proposes to design a portable tool that is both simple and effective to allow to easily operate the deformation of the previously heated material during a peeler operation. In particular, this tool is adapted to deform the softened plastic material of the panel without risking the adhesion of the molten plastic material to said tool, adhesion which would result in loss of material and hence the impossibility of thickening properly the end of the tongue to immobilize the latter.

Selon l'invention l'outil portatif pour opérer l'assemblage par bouterollage d'une pièce sur un panneau en matière plastique est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte un corps permettant facilement sa préhension par la main d'un opérateur, ce corps présentant au moins une face d'appui sensiblement plane sur laquelle est ménagée un évidemment de forme adaptée et s'étendant longitudinalement le long de la face d'appui, le corps de l'outil étant réalisé en matériau conducteur de la chaleur.  According to the invention the portable tool for operating the assembly by snap-fitting a piece on a plastic panel is characterized in that it comprises a body allowing easy gripping by the hand of an operator, this body having at least one substantially flat bearing surface on which is formed a recess of suitable shape and extending longitudinally along the bearing face, the body of the tool being made of heat conducting material.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'outil objet de l'invention, l'évidemment est formé par une pluralité de cavités sensiblement hémisphériques s'étendant les unes à côté des autres selon l'axe longitudinal de la surface d'appui.  According to another characteristic of the tool which is the subject of the invention, the recess is formed by a plurality of substantially hemispherical cavities extending next to each other along the longitudinal axis of the bearing surface.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'outil objet de l'invention, il comporte des moyens permettant la fixation d'un manche.  According to another characteristic of the tool object of the invention, it comprises means for fixing a handle.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'outil objet de l'invention, ces moyens pour la fixation d'un manche sont formés par une surface formant méplat et par un trou pour le passage d'une vis de fixation. Selon une autre caractéristique de l'outil objet de l'invention, le corps de l'outil est réalisé par usinage d'un bloc en aluminium.  According to another feature of the tool object of the invention, these means for fixing a handle are formed by a flat surface and a hole for the passage of a fixing screw. According to another characteristic of the tool which is the subject of the invention, the body of the tool is made by machining an aluminum block.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'outil objet de l'invention, le 10 corps de l'outil est réalisé en matière plastique chargée de fibres.  According to another characteristic of the tool which is the subject of the invention, the body of the tool is made of plastic material loaded with fibers.

La présente invention concerne également un ensemble constitué d'un panneau comportant des surfaces en matière plastique destinées à être bouterollées et d'un outil possédant les 15 caractéristiques précitées pour opérer ce bouterollage, cet outil étant apte à être fixé au panneau de façon à offrir la disponibilité d'un tel outil en vue de la réparation de ce panneau.  The present invention also relates to an assembly consisting of a panel comprising plastic surfaces intended to be riveted and of a tool having the above-mentioned characteristics for operating this blocking, this tool being able to be fixed to the panel so as to offer the availability of such a tool for the repair of this panel.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'ensemble objet de l'invention, 20 le panneau est formé par un élément de pare-chocs pour véhicules automobiles ou routiers.  According to another feature of the assembly object of the invention, the panel is formed by a bumper element for motor vehicles or road.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'ensemble objet de l'invention, l'outil de bouterollage présente une surface d'appui adaptée aux 25 dimensions des surfaces en saillies du panneau destinées à être bouterollées.  According to another feature of the assembly that is the subject of the invention, the cutting tool has a bearing surface adapted to the dimensions of the projecting surfaces of the panel intended to be riveted.

Selon une autre caractéristique de l'ensemble objet de l'invention, les moyens pour fixer ledit outil sont de type fusible et ne 30 permettent plus le remontage de l'outil sur le panneau après démontage de cet outil. 5  According to another characteristic of the assembly object of the invention, the means for fixing said tool are fuse type and no longer allow the reassembly of the tool on the panel after disassembly of this tool. 5

La présente invention et ses avantages seront mieux compris à l'étude de la description détaillée d'un mode de réalisation donné à titre d'exemple non limitatif et illustré par les dessins annexés, sur lesquels : - les figures 1 et 2 sont des vues partielles en coupe précisant l'assemblage d'une grille d'entrée d'air sur un pare-chocs par bouterollage ; - la figure 3 est une vue isométrique d'un outil pour bouteroller selon l'invention ; - les figures 4 et 5 sont des vues respectivement de dessus et de face de l'outil présenté à la figure 3.  The present invention and its advantages will be better understood on studying the detailed description of an embodiment given by way of non-limiting example and illustrated by the appended drawings, in which: FIGS. 1 and 2 are views partial sectional section specifying the assembly of an air inlet grille on a bumper by bouterollage; FIG. 3 is an isometric view of a tool for a bouteroller according to the invention; FIGS. 4 and 5 are views respectively from above and from the front of the tool presented in FIG.

Sur les Figures 1 et 2, on a représenté l'assemblage de deux pièces par bouterollage telle qu'une grille d'entrée d'air 2 sur un panneau de pare-chocs 1 automobile réalisé en matière plastique. Cet assemblage a été donné à titre purement illustratif, d'autres applications sont utilisées (exemple : garniture de porte).  In Figures 1 and 2, there is shown the assembly of two parts by bouterollage such as an air inlet grille 2 on a bumper panel 1 automobile made of plastic. This assembly has been given for illustrative purposes only, other applications are used (example: door trim).

Un tel panneau 1 présente une partie centrale quasi-plane, dans laquelle est ménagée une ouverture principale d'entrée d'air, et deux parties latérales nettement galbées, dont les extrémités libres sont destinées à être reliées à des parties avant d'aile du véhicule et assurent une continuité de forme extérieure. Ainsi, le panneau 1 se présente comme une peau concave, dont la concavité est située du côté du véhicule, ayant une face arrière située du côté du véhicule.  Such a panel 1 has a substantially flat central part, in which is provided a main air inlet opening, and two clearly curved side portions, the free ends of which are intended to be connected to front wing portions of the vehicle and provide external continuity of shape. Thus, the panel 1 is a concave skin, whose concavity is located on the side of the vehicle, having a rear face on the side of the vehicle.

Pour ce qui est de la grille 2, cette dernière se présente de façon classique sous la forme d'un cadre et d'un réseau d'ailettes solidaires du cadre, s'étendant à l'intérieur de ce dernier. Le réseau d'ailettes peut par exemple comporter une série d'ailettes  As regards the grid 2, the latter is conventionally in the form of a frame and a network of fins secured to the frame, extending inside the latter. The fin array may for example comprise a series of fins

sensiblement horizontales et parallèles entre elles, et une série d'ailettes sensiblement verticales et parallèles entre elles.  substantially horizontal and parallel to each other, and a series of fins substantially vertical and parallel to each other.

Le panneau de pare-chocs 1 présente autour de l'ouverture principale des languettes du type de la languette 3 figurée. Chaque languette 3 est destinée à pénétrer dans une ouverture 4 correspondante formant boutonnière faite au travers du cadre de la grille d'entrée d'air 2.  The bumper panel 1 has around the main opening tabs of the type of the tongue 3 shown. Each tongue 3 is intended to penetrate into a corresponding opening 4 forming a buttonhole made through the frame of the air inlet grille 2.

La figure 1 présente plus particulièrement la mise en position de la grille 2 sur le panneau de pare-chocs 1 avec pénétration des languettes 3 dans les ouvertures 4.  FIG. 1 more particularly shows the positioning of the grid 2 on the bumper panel 1 with penetration of the tongues 3 in the openings 4.

Une fois cet assemblage réalisé, on peut opérer le bouterollage et donc la solidarisation de la grille 2 sur le panneau 1 en venant chauffer l'extrémité de chacune des languette 3 en saillie hors de l'ouverture 4 en utilisant une source de chaleur adaptée par exemple un pistolet thermique soufflant un aire chaud à une température régulée et en réalisant avec la matière ramollie de la languette une forme épaissie appropriée telle qu'une succession de têtes arrondies accolées les unes aux autres et dont le diamètre de chacune est sensiblement supérieur à la dimension transversale de l'ouverture 4 de façon à interdire le retrait de la languette 3 hors de l'ouverture 4 et donc à immobiliser la grille d'entrée d'air 2 sur le panneau 1, telle que cela apparaît sur la figure 2.  Once this assembly is completed, it is possible to perform the pegging and thus the securing of the grid 2 on the panel 1 by coming to heat the end of each of the tongue 3 projecting out of the opening 4 by using a heat source adapted by for example, a heat gun blowing a hot area at a controlled temperature and realizing with the softened material of the tongue a suitable thickened shape such as a succession of rounded heads contiguous to each other and whose diameter of each is substantially greater than the transverse dimension of the opening 4 so as to prohibit the removal of the tongue 3 out of the opening 4 and thus to immobilize the air inlet grille 2 on the panel 1, as shown in FIG.

Les figures 3 à 5 détaillent, à l'échelle 1, un outil portatif permettant de réaliser l'épaississement de l'extrémité de la languette préalablement chauffée et sa conformation sous la forme d'une succession de têtes arrondies ou toutes autres formes d'empreintes souhaitées.  Figures 3 to 5 detail, scale 1, a portable tool for performing the thickening of the end of the previously heated tongue and its conformation in the form of a succession of rounded heads or other forms of desired footprints.

Cet outil formant matrice se présente sous la forme d'un corps sensiblement parallélépipédique permettant une manipulation aisée par un opérateur. Ce corps est réalisé en une matière favorisant les échanges thermiques telle que de l'aluminium pour éviter ainsi toute perte de matière par adhésion sur l'outil.  This die forming tool is in the form of a substantially parallelepiped body allowing easy manipulation by an operator. This body is made of a material promoting heat exchange such as aluminum to avoid any loss of material by adhesion to the tool.

Ce corps 5 présente une face d'extrémité latérale sensiblement plane 6 destinée à la déformation de la languette. Cette face 6, qui est destinée à venir en appui contre l'extrémité de languette 3 et à presser cette dernière contre le cadre 2 de la grille d'entrée d'air, est usinée de façon à réaliser un évidemment oblong formé par exemple par une succession de cavités élémentaires 7 sensiblement hémisphériques de dimension adaptée.  This body 5 has a substantially flat lateral end face 6 for the deformation of the tongue. This face 6, which is intended to bear against the end of the tongue 3 and to press the latter against the frame 2 of the air inlet grille, is machined so as to produce an oblong recess formed for example by a succession of substantially hemispherical elementary cavities 7 of suitable size.

Ainsi, si la face 6 présente une dimension rectangulaire de 1 cm de petit côté et de 5 cm de grand côté, chacune des six cavités hémisphériques 7, agencées les unes à côté des autres le long de cette surface 6, présente un rayon de 3 mm.  Thus, if the face 6 has a rectangular dimension of 1 cm short side and 5 cm long side, each of the six hemispherical cavities 7, arranged next to each other along this surface 6, has a radius of 3 mm.

Bien évidemment la forme et le nombre des cavités 7 n'est pas limitatif de l'invention, l'évidemment devant être adapté aux dimensions de la languette 3 et à l'épaississement souhaité au droit de l'ouverture 4.  Obviously the shape and the number of cavities 7 is not limiting of the invention, the obvious to be adapted to the dimensions of the tongue 3 and the desired thickening right of the opening 4.

Cet outil peut être manipulé directement par un opérateur ou encore disposé à l'extrémité d'un manche rapporté non figuré. Pour la fixation d'un tel manche on prévoit une surface d'appui formant méplat 8 et un trou débouchant 9 permettant la fixation du manche sur le corps de l'outil 5 par tout moyen approprié et notamment une vis et un écrou.  This tool can be manipulated directly by an operator or placed at the end of a reported non-figured handle. For fixing such a handle is provided a support surface forming flat 8 and a through hole 9 for fixing the handle on the body of the tool 5 by any suitable means including a screw and a nut.

Un tel outil extrêmement simple à réaliser peut être prévu pour équiper chaque pare-chocs 1 et notamment chaque pare-chocs destiné à être livré aux ateliers de réparation mécanique.  Such an extremely simple tool can be provided to equip each bumper 1 and in particular each bumper to be delivered to the mechanical repair shops.

On peut notamment prévoir que chaque pare-choc soit livré avec un outil adapté aux dimensions des languettes spécifiques de ce pare-chocs, cet outil étant solidarisé audit pare-chocs par des moyens appropriés et notamment des moyens fusibles qui interdisent la remise en place de l'outil une fois celui-ci utilisé.  In particular, it is possible for each bumper to be delivered with a tool adapted to the dimensions of the specific tabs of this bumper, this tool being secured to said bumper by appropriate means, and in particular fusible means which prohibit the repositioning of the bumper. the tool once it is used.

Bien entendu, la présente invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation que l'on vient de décrire, et on peut apporter à ceux-ci de nombreux changements et modifications sans sortir de la présente invention. Ainsi l'outil décrit n'est nullement limité à la réparation d'un pare-chocs mais peut être utilisé pour toute autre application requérant une opération de bouterollage.  Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment that has just been described, and many changes and modifications can be made thereto without departing from the present invention. Thus the described tool is not limited to the repair of a bumper but can be used for any other application requiring a stubbing operation.

20 Ainsi, l'outil selon l'invention peut être réalisé en matière plastique chargé de fibre.15  Thus, the tool according to the invention can be made of plastic material loaded with fiber.
