Description

ROUE DE VEHICULE AUTOMOBILE ET ENJOLIVEUR ASSOCIEMOTOR VEHICLE WHEEL AND ASSOCIATED TRIM

La présente invention se rapporte à une roue de véhicule automobile et à un enjoliveur associé. L’invention appartient au domaine des roues et enjoliveurs de roues et trouve application dans le domaine automobile.The present invention relates to a motor vehicle wheel and an associated hubcap. The invention belongs to the field of wheels and hubcaps and finds application in the automotive field.

On connaît deux familles de roues : d'une part, les roues en tôle, avec un éventuel enjoliveur sur tout ou partie de la face externe de la roue ; et d'autre part, les roues en aluminium.Two families of wheels are known: on the one hand, the sheet wheels, with a possible hubcap on all or part of the outer face of the wheel; and on the other hand, the aluminum wheels.

La géométrie de la roue et notamment la structure de sa face externe est généralement étudiée pour répondre à des exigences de style et/ou de performance aérodynamique.The geometry of the wheel and especially the structure of its outer face is generally studied to meet the requirements of style and / or aerodynamic performance.

Ainsi, le document FR-A-3 011 769 décrit un enjoliveur aérodynamique monté sur la face externe de la roue. Néanmoins, la face interne de la roue ne bénéficie d'aucune attention.Thus, the document FR-A-3 011 769 describes an aerodynamic hubcap mounted on the outer face of the wheel. Nevertheless, the inside of the wheel receives no attention.

Cela présente l'inconvénient de priver le véhicule équipé de telles roues de performances aérodynamiques accrues.This has the disadvantage of depriving the vehicle equipped with such wheels increased aerodynamic performance.

La présente invention vise à remédier aux inconvénients précités.The present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.

Dans ce but, la présente invention propose une roue de véhicule automobile, présentant une face interne et une face externe, remarquable en ce qu’elle comporte un enjoliveur monté sur ladite face interne.For this purpose, the present invention provides a motor vehicle wheel, having an inner face and an outer face, remarkable in that it comprises a trim on said inner face.

Le montage d'un enjoliveur sur la face interne de la roue permet notamment d'améliorer l'aérodynamique de cette zone en réduisant la traînée du véhicule et également d'améliorer le refroidissement des freins, en définissant de façon appropriée la structure de l'enjoliveur.The mounting of a hubcap on the inner face of the wheel in particular improves the aerodynamics of this area by reducing the drag of the vehicle and also improve the cooling of the brakes, by appropriately defining the structure of the wheel. hubcap.

Selon une caractéristique particulière, l'enjoliveur précité présente une structure aérodynamique. C'est cette structure qui contribue à l'augmentation du niveau de performance aérodynamique du véhicule.According to a particular characteristic, the aforementioned hubcap has an aerodynamic structure. It is this structure that contributes to the increase of the aerodynamic performance level of the vehicle.

Dans un mode particulier de réalisation, la roue est réalisée en tôle.In a particular embodiment, the wheel is made of sheet metal.

En variante, elle peut être réalisée en aluminium.Alternatively, it can be made of aluminum.

Dans le même but que celui indiqué plus haut, la présente invention propose également un enjoliveur de roue de véhicule automobile, la roue présentant une face interne et une face externe, cet enjoliveur étant remarquable en ce qu'il est adapté à être monté sur la face interne d'une roue telle que succinctement décrite ci-dessus.For the same purpose as that indicated above, the present invention also proposes a wheel trim of a motor vehicle, the wheel having an inner face and an outer face, this hubcap being remarkable in that it is adapted to be mounted on the inner face of a wheel as succinctly described above.

Toujours dans le même but, la présente invention propose aussi un véhicule automobile, remarquable en ce qu’il comporte au moins un enjoliveur tel que succinctement décrit ci-dessus.Still for the same purpose, the present invention also proposes a motor vehicle, remarkable in that it comprises at least one hubcap as briefly described above.

Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'enjoliveur et du véhicule étant les mêmes que ceux de la roue, ils ne sont pas répétés ici. D'autres aspects et avantages de l’invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description qui suit de modes particuliers de réalisation, donnés à titre d’exemples non limitatifs et en référence aux dessins qui l'accompagnent, dans lesquels : - la figure 1 est une vue schématique partielle d'une roue de véhicule automobile conforme à la présente invention, dans un mode particulier de réalisation.The characteristics and advantages of the hubcap and the vehicle being the same as those of the wheel, they are not repeated here. Other aspects and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the following description of particular embodiments, given by way of non-limiting examples and with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a partial schematic view of a motor vehicle wheel according to the present invention, in a particular embodiment.

La figure 1 illustre schématiquement une partie d'une roue 10 de véhicule automobile conforme à la présente invention, dans un mode particulier de réalisation.Figure 1 schematically illustrates a portion of a wheel 10 of a motor vehicle according to the present invention, in a particular embodiment.

La roue 10 présente une face interne 12 et une face externe 14. Un enjoliveur est monté sur la face externe 14. En outre, conformément à la présente invention, la roue comporte un enjoliveur 16 monté sur la face interne 12 de la roue 10.The wheel 10 has an inner face 12 and an outer face 14. A hubcap is mounted on the outer face 14. In addition, according to the present invention, the wheel comprises a hubcap 16 mounted on the inner face 12 of the wheel 10.

Ainsi, l'invention porte une attention à la face interne 12 de la roue 10 de façon comparable à celle portée à la face externe 14, qui concerne non pas l'aspect esthétique, mais l'aspect technique, à savoir, l'aérodynamisme ainsi que le refroidissement des organes de freinage. L'enjoliveur 16 présente donc avantageusement une structure aérodynamique.Thus, the invention pays attention to the inner face 12 of the wheel 10 in a manner comparable to that of the outer face 14, which concerns not the aesthetic aspect, but the technical aspect, namely aerodynamics. as well as the cooling of the braking members. The hubcap 16 therefore advantageously has an aerodynamic structure.

La face interne 12 ne peut évidemment être recouverte intégralement comme l'est la face externe 14, du fait de la présence de plusieurs organes tels qu'un moyeu, un frein ou bien encore une transmission. Néanmoins, une partie de la face interne 12 peut bénéficier d'une géométrie dite technique, pour améliorer encore l'aérodynamisme de cette zone.The inner face 12 can obviously be completely covered as is the outer face 14, due to the presence of several members such as a hub, a brake or a transmission. Nevertheless, a portion of the inner face 12 may benefit from a so-called technical geometry, to further improve the aerodynamics of this area.

Dans le mode particulier de réalisation illustré, l'enjoliveur 16 présente une forme analogue à celle d'une turbine, avec une série de pales à profil du type en aile d'avion, sur tout son pourtour. Cette structure n'est cependant donnée qu'à titre d'exemple nullement limitatif et toute autre structure ayant des propriétés aérodynamiques, permettant de réduire la traînée du véhicule et/ou d'améliorer le refroidissement des organes de freinage, convient aussi bien.In the particular embodiment illustrated, the hubcap 16 has a shape similar to that of a turbine, with a series of airfoil type profile blades all over its periphery. This structure is, however, given by way of non-limiting example and any other structure having aerodynamic properties, to reduce the drag of the vehicle and / or to improve the cooling of the braking members, is also suitable.

La roue 10 peut être réalisée en tôle.The wheel 10 can be made of sheet metal.

En variante, la roue 10 peut être réalisée en aluminium.Alternatively, the wheel 10 may be made of aluminum.

Dans le cas d'une roue 10 en aluminium, on peut, soit ajouter l'enjoliveur 16 sur la face interne 12 de la roue, soit travailler directement la géométrie de la roue elle-même.In the case of an aluminum wheel 10, it is possible either to add the trim 16 to the inner face 12 of the wheel, or to work directly on the geometry of the wheel itself.

Un véhicule équipé de roues ayant des enjoliveurs montés sur les faces internes des roues présentera des propriétés aérodynamiques accrues, offrant ainsi un gain en consommation et une réduction des émissions de dioxyde de carbone.A vehicle equipped with wheels having hubcaps mounted on the inner faces of the wheels will have increased aerodynamic properties, thus offering a gain in consumption and a reduction in carbon dioxide emissions.
