Description

DISPOSITIF ANTI-VOL POUR VEHICULES A DEUX-ROUES ANTI-THEFT DEVICE FOR TWO-WHEELED VEHICLES
La présente invention a peur objet un dispositif anti-vol pour véhicules & deux roues tels que vélomoteurs, cyclomoteurs, scooters, motocyclettes. Ce dispositif anti-vol. comprend un cadenas constitué par un corps muni d'une serrure et par une pièce présentant la forme d'un U allongé dont les deux branches s'engagent par leurs extrémités dans des logements correspondant du corps du cadenas, le corps et la pièce en U du cadenas étant, dans cette position relative, rendus solidaires l'un de l'autre par la fermeture de la serrure.The present invention is concerned with an anti-theft device for vehicles & two wheels such as mopeds, mopeds, scooters, motorcycles. This anti-theft device. comprises a padlock constituted by a body provided with a lock and by a part having the shape of an elongated U of which the two branches engage by their ends in corresponding housings of the body of the padlock, the body and the U-shaped part the padlock being, in this relative position, made integral with one another by the closing of the lock.
On comnait plusieurs dispositifs anti-vol comportant un cadenas de ce type que l'on engage â cheval sur une partie du cadre du véhicule, par exert-ple sur un tube ou sur une des fourches, en passant à travers une roueq ue l'on bloque en fermant la serrure.There were several anti-theft devices comprising a padlock of this type which is engaged astride a part of the vehicle frame, for example on a tube or on one of the forks, passing through a wheel. we block by closing the lock.
Ces dispositifs présentent malheureusement l'inconvénient que le cadens n'a pas une position de verrouillage assignée de telle sorte qu'il se trouve souvent localement en contact avec le caâre ou le châssis du véhicule ce qui, avec le temps, endommage la peinture ou le vernis recouvrant ces parties dû véhicule.Unfortunately, these devices have the disadvantage that the cadens do not have an assigned locking position so that they often find themselves locally in contact with the frame or the chassis of the vehicle which, over time, damages the paintwork or the varnish covering these parts of the vehicle.
Le dispositif anti-vol selon la présente invention élimine cet inconvénient.The anti-theft device according to the present invention eliminates this drawback.
A cet effet, ce dispositif est caractérisé par le fait qu'il comprend un support destiné à être fixé & deneure. sur le cadre ou le châssis du véhicule , à un endroitadéquat, ce support étant traversé de part en part par au moins un passage dans lequel une des branches de la pièce en U du cadenas peut coulisser entre une position de verrouillage et une position de dêverrouillage, des moyens étant prévus pour permettre d'escamoter cette pièce lorsqu'elle se trouve dans sa position de dêverrouillage. Le dessin ci-annexé représente schërnatiquement et à titre d'exemple deux formes d'exécution de l'objet de l'invention.To this end, this device is characterized by the fact that it comprises a support intended to be fixed & of time. on the frame or chassis of the vehicle, at an adequate location, this support being traversed right through by at least one passage in which one of the branches of the U-shaped part of the padlock can slide between a locked position and an unlocked position , means being provided to allow this part to be retracted when it is in its unlocked position. The appended drawing shows schematically and by way of example two embodiments of the subject of the invention.
La figure 1 est une vue de face de la première forme d'exécution montée sur la fourche arrière d'un vélo-moteur, en position de verrouillage. La figure 2 est une vue en coupe par la ligne II-II de la figure 1. LaFigure 3 est une vue analogue à la figure 2, le dispositif étant déverrouillé.Figure 1 is a front view of the first embodiment mounted on the rear fork of a motorbike, in the locked position. Figure 2 is a sectional view through line II-II of Figure 1. LaFigure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, the device being unlocked.
La figure 4 est une vue de face de la seconde forme d'exécution, montée sur la fourche arrière d'un cyclo-moteur, en position de verrouillage. La figure 5 est une vue en coupe par la ligne V-V de la figure 4. La figure 6 est une vue analogue à la figure 5, le dispositif étant déverrouillé.Figure 4 is a front view of the second embodiment, mounted on the rear fork of a moped, in the locked position. Figure 5 is a sectional view through the line V-V of Figure 4. Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 5, the device being unlocked.
Le dispositif représenté aux figures 1 à 3 oorprend d'une part un cadenas 10 constitué par un corps 11 doté d'une serrure et par un organe de verrouillage 12 présentant la forme d'un U allongé dont les branches 13 sont destinées à être introduites par leurs extrémités dans des trous borgnes 14 du corps 11 et bloquées dans ces trous par la fermeture de la serrure au moyen d'une clé 15.The device shown in Figures 1 to 3 oorprend on the one hand a padlock 10 consisting of a body 11 with a lock and by a locking member 12 having the shape of an elongated U whose branches 13 are intended to be introduced by their ends in blind holes 14 in the body 11 and locked in these holes by closing the lock by means of a key 15.
Le dispositif comprend en outre un support 16 comportant deux passages cylindriques 17 de diamètre correspondant à ceux des branches 13. Le corps 11 et le support 16 sont montés respectivement sur les deux bras de la fourche arrière T du véhicule, par l'intermédiaire de plaques de fixation 18 et 19 et de vis non visibles au dessin, de manière que les trous 14 et les passages 17, de mêmes diamètres, soient alignés coaxialement perpendiculairement â la roue correspondante. Les branches 13 sont engagées dans les passages 17 et l'organe 12 peut, ainsi coulisser librement dans le support 16.The device further comprises a support 16 comprising two cylindrical passages 17 of diameter corresponding to those of the branches 13. The body 11 and the support 16 are mounted respectively on the two arms of the rear fork T of the vehicle, by means of plates fixing 18 and 19 and screws not visible in the drawing, so that the holes 14 and the passages 17, of the same diameters, are aligned coaxially perpendicular to the corresponding wheel. The branches 13 are engaged in the passages 17 and the member 12 can thus slide freely in the support 16.
Le déplacement de cet organe 12 est limité dans les deux sens de manière à définir deux positions extrêmes , une position de verrouillage et une position de déverroulliage .The movement of this member 12 is limited in both directions so as to define two extreme positions, a locking position and an unlocking position.
Ces deux positions sont déterminées respectivement par le verrou 20 du cadenas 11 et par un verrou à bille 21 coopérant avec une butée 25. Peur que l'organe 13 ne fasse pas saillie latéralement lorsqu'il se trouve dans sa position de dêverrouillage, il comporte deux articulations 22 qui permettent de rabattre sa partie centrale 23 vers le bas contre un clips 24. Le dispositif représenté aux figures 4 à 6 comprend un cadenas 30, du méne type que le cadenas 11 , dans lequel l'organe de verrouillage 31 est en une pièce.These two positions are determined respectively by the lock 20 of the padlock 11 and by a ball lock 21 cooperating with a stop 25. Fear that the member 13 does not protrude laterally when it is in its unlocked position, it comprises two joints 22 which allow its central part 23 to be folded down against a clip 24. The device shown in Figures 4 to 6 comprises a padlock 30, of the same type as the padlock 11, in which the locking member 31 is in one piece.
Dans cette forme d'exécution, le corps 32 du cadenas U n'est pas fixé au cadre du véhicule.In this embodiment, the body 32 of the padlock U is not fixed to the frame of the vehicle.
Ce dispositif comprend en outre un support 33 présentant en plan une partie en relief en ferme de T, fixé à l'un des bras T de la fourche arrière par l'intermédiaire d'une plaque 34 et de vis non visibles au dessin.This device further comprises a support 33 having in plan a raised portion in firm form of T, fixed to one of the arms T of the rear fork by means of a plate 34 and screws not visible in the drawing.
La partie centrale, de largeur réduite, de ce support 33 est traversée par un axe transversal 35, sa partie la plus large et l'axe 35 par des trous 36 et 37 coaxiaux et alignés, de mêmes diamètres, dans lesquels peuvent coulisser les branches 38 de l'organe de verrouillage 31 du cadenas 30.The central part, of reduced width, of this support 33 is crossed by a transverse axis 35, its widest part and the axis 35 by coaxial and aligned holes 36 and 37, of the same diameters, in which the branches can slide 38 of the locking member 31 of the padlock 30.
Le déplacement de cet organe 31 est limité dans les deux sens de manière à définir deux positions extrêmes, une position de verrouillage et une position de dêverrouillage.The movement of this member 31 is limited in both directions so as to define two extreme positions, a locking position and an unlocking position.
Ces deux positions sont déterminées respectivement par la partie torrique 38 de l'organe 31 et par un verrou non visible au dessin. Lorsque l'organe 31 est dans sa position de dêverrouillage, les extrémités de ses branches 38 ne sont plus engagées dans les trous 37. Dans ces conditions, il est possible de faire pivoter vers le bas, l'organe 31 avec l'axe 35 jusque dans une position verticale pour laquelle U est escamoté.These two positions are determined respectively by the torric part 38 of the member 31 and by a lock not visible in the drawing. When the member 31 is in its unlocked position, the ends of its branches 38 are no longer engaged in the holes 37. Under these conditions, it is possible to pivot downward, the member 31 with the axis 35 until in a vertical position for which U is retracted.
Un des principaux avantagesdes deux dispositifs réside dans le fait que, lorsqu'ils sont verrouillés ou déverrouillés, le cadpnas occupe une position dans laquelle aucune de ses parties n'est en contact avec le cadre ou le châssis du véhicule.One of the main advantages of the two devices lies in the fact that, when they are locked or unlocked, the cadpnas occupies a position in which none of its parts is in contact with the frame or the chassis of the vehicle.
En outre, lorsqu'il est déverrouillé, l'organe de verrouillage peut être escamoté de sorte qu'il ne gêne pas le conducteur du véhicule et ne crée pas un danger en faisant saillie.Furthermore, when it is unlocked, the locking member can be retracted so that it does not disturb the driver of the vehicle and does not create a danger by projecting.
On remarquera que la seconde forme d'exécution présente un avantage supplémentaire important, celui d'utiliser un cadenas du commerce sans qu'il soit nécessaire de lui apporter une quelconque modification. L'invention n'est évidemment pas limitée aux deux formes d'exécution représentées et décrite ci-dessus. En particulier le support ne pourrait comporter qu'un seul passage pour l'une ou l'autre des branches de l'organe de verrouillage. It will be noted that the second embodiment has an important additional advantage, that of using a commercial padlock without it being necessary to make any modification to it. The invention is obviously not limited to the two embodiments shown and described above. In particular, the support could only comprise a single passage for one or the other of the branches of the locking member.
