Abstract

A mobile dwelling or recreational vehicle such as a caravan or mobile home is disclosed. The side walls may be deployed fan-wise and consist of telescoping panels (7, 9, 11) comprising a lower portion supported by retractable rails (17). The floor space in the vehicle may thus be increased without exceeding the maximum dimensions for road use when the vehicle is in the collapsed position.

Description

UNITE MOBILE D'HABITATION MOBILE HOUSING UNIT
La présente invention a pour objet un véhicule mobile d'habitation du type dans lequel un caisson sensiblement parallélépipédique et reposé sur au moins deux roues.The present invention relates to a mobile residential vehicle of the type in which a substantially parallelepipedal box and rested on at least two wheels.
De tels véhicules sont connus sous le nom de caravane et de mobile home, le caisson parallélépipédique d'habitation reposant sur au moins deux roues. Un tel véhicule est soit tracté par une voiture, soit intégré à une cabine de conduite. Le caisson contient différents aménagements permettant une vie normale.Such vehicles are known under the name of caravan and mobile home, the parallelepiped housing unit resting on at least two wheels. Such a vehicle is either towed by a car or integrated into a driving cabin. The box contains different arrangements for normal life.
Le problème avec ce type d'habitation mobile provient de ce que l'encombrement roulant du véhicule est limité par le gabarit routier notamment en largeur, celle-ci ne devant pas excéder 2m45 mais également en longueur par des raisons pratiques.The problem with this type of mobile housing stems from the fact that the vehicle's overall dimensions are limited by the road gauge, in particular in width, the latter not having to exceed 2m45 but also in length for practical reasons.
Afin de limiter l'encombrement roulant d'un tel véhicule, il est déjà connu de pouvoir le replier en direction verticale de manière à abaisser le centre de gravité et à limiter la prise au vent. Mais le volume d'un tel caisson reste du même ordre que celui des caravanes classiques.In order to limit the overall dimensions of such a vehicle, it is already known to be able to fold it in a vertical direction so as to lower the center of gravity and limit the wind resistance. But the volume of such a box remains of the same order as that of conventional caravans.
La présente invention a pour objet de pallier cet inconvénient et de permettre de disposer après arrêt du véhicule d'un volume d'habitation bien supérieur à celui du véhicule connu.The object of the present invention is to overcome this drawback and to make it possible to have, after the vehicle has stopped, a volume of accommodation much greater than that of the known vehicle.
Selon la présente invention, le véhicule mobile d'habitation comprenant un caisson parallélépipédique reposant sur au moins deux roues est caractérisé en ce que au moins l'une de ses parois latérales est montée pivotante sur au moins un axe vertical, à ladite paroi étant suivie par une série de volets ou croissants télescopiques profilés. Les parties inférieures étant portées par des rails rétractables.According to the present invention, the mobile residential vehicle comprising a rectangular box resting on at least two wheels is characterized in that at least one of its side walls is pivotally mounted on at least one vertical axis, said wall being followed by a series of profiled telescopic flaps or crescents. The lower parts being carried by retractable rails.
Il est ainsi possible, lorsque le véhicule est arrêté de déployer latéralement les volets ou croissants de manière à agrandir le volume habitable. Cette ouverture peut se faire soit symétriquement soit dissyraétriquement.It is thus possible, when the vehicle is stopped to deploy laterally the flaps or crescents so as to enlarge the living space. This opening can be done either symmetrically or dissyraetrically.
La partie supérieure des volets est inclinée de sorte qu'il existe une pente d'évacuation des eaux pluviales. Bien entendu, des joints d'étanchéité sont prévus entre lesdits volets.The upper part of the flaps is inclined so that there is a slope for evacuating rainwater. Of course, seals are provided between said flaps.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, les volets ou croissants précités sont constitués de secteurs cylindriques de hauteur et de rayon croissants du volet extérieur vers l'intérieur du caisson. Ainsi, le plancher du volume habitable déplié est sensiblement horizontal, une légère différence de niveau apparaissant entre deux volets ou panneaux en raison de leur superposition.According to another characteristic of the invention, the aforementioned flaps or crescents consist of cylindrical sectors of increasing height and radius of the exterior flap towards the interior of the box. Thus, the floor of the unfolded living space is substantially horizontal, a slight difference in level appearing between two shutters or panels due to their superposition.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, le corps de certains véhicules est constitué de deux caissons, le caisson arrière pouvant coulisser dans le caisson avant. Il est ainsi possible de dégager la partie ouvrable du véhicule de l'encombrement des roues, l'axe de pivotement des parties ouvrantes se trouvant derrière l'essieu desdites roues dans le cas ou le véhicule repose sur deux roues.According to another characteristic of the invention, the body of certain vehicles consists of two boxes, the rear box being able to slide in the front box. It is thus possible to free the opening part of the vehicle from the size of the wheels, the pivot axis of the opening parts being behind the axle of said wheels in the case where the vehicle rests on two wheels.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront au cours de la description qui va suivre de modes particuliers de réalisation donnés à titre d'exemple non limitatif en regard des figures qui représentent : - La figure 1, une vue par dessus d'un véhicule selon 1' invention en position déplié ;Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear during the description which follows of particular embodiments given by way of nonlimiting example with reference to the figures which represent: - Figure 1, a top view of a vehicle according to one invention in the unfolded position;

- la figure 5, une vue schématique par dessus montrant différentes possibilités de pliage/dépliage.- Figure 5, a schematic view from above showing different possibilities of folding / unfolding.
Sur la figure 1 on distingue de bas en haut une flèche de raccordement (non référencée) servant à l'attelage du véhicule lorsque celui-ci est tracté. A cette flèche est raccordée une carrosserie comprenant deux caissons respectivement 1 et 2 , le caisson 2 coulissant dans le caisson 1 pour réduire la longueur du véhicule en position de route. Le caisson 1 présente sensiblement dans sa partie médiane deux axes verticaux 3 et 4. Sur l'axe 3 est montée pivotante une paroi 5 qui en position repliée constitue une paroi extérieure de la carrosserie. A l'extrémité 6 de ladite paroi est fixée une extrémité d'un panneau ou volet 7 à sections circulaires. La seconde extrémité 8 du panneau 7 est solidarisée d'un panneau suivant 9 dont la seconde extrémité 10 est solidarisée d'un troisième panneau 11 dont l'extrémité 12 est solidaire du caisson 2.In Figure 1 we distinguish from the bottom up a connection arrow (not referenced) used for coupling the vehicle when it is towed. To this arrow is connected a body comprising two boxes respectively 1 and 2, the box 2 sliding in the box 1 to reduce the length of the vehicle in the road position. The box 1 has substantially in its middle part two vertical axes 3 and 4. On the axis 3 is pivotally mounted a wall 5 which in the folded position constitutes an outer wall of the body. At the end 6 of said wall is fixed one end of a panel or flap 7 with circular sections. The second end 8 of the panel 7 is secured to a next panel 9, the second end 10 of which is secured to a third panel 11, the end 12 of which is secured to the box 2.
Il en va de même de la paroi 13 qui est articulée sur l'axe 4. Bien entendu, une butée limite le débattement des parois 5 et 13. On distingue à la partie supérieure gauche de la figure les panneaux 7, 9 et 11 dans la position qu'ils occupent une fois le véhicule replié. A l'intérieur du véhicule sont représentés différents meubles ou aménagements tels que des lits qui peuvent être repliés le long d'une paroi, un coin cuisine, un salon et un coin salle d'eau toilette (non référencée).The same applies to the wall 13 which is articulated on the axis 4. Of course, a stop limits the travel of the walls 5 and 13. There are panels 7, 9 and 11 in the upper left part of the figure in the position they occupy once the vehicle is folded. Inside the vehicle are represented different furniture or amenities like beds that can be folded along a wall, a kitchenette, a lounge and a dining toilet water (not referenced).
Sur la figure 2, est représentée la caravane portée par des roues 14 dont une seule apparaît sur la figure et l'on retrouve le caisson 1 dans lequel est encastré le caisson 2 de sorte que les roues soient sensiblement au milieu de la longueur du véhicule. Les volets ou croissants sont, bien entendu, repliés à l'intérieur du caisson 2 et les planchers 15 se superposent à l'intérieur du véhicule.In Figure 2, is shown the caravan carried by wheels 14 of which only one appears in the figure and we find the box 1 in which the box 2 is embedded so that the wheels are substantially in the middle of the length of the vehicle . The shutters or crescents are, of course, folded back inside the box 2 and the floors 15 are superimposed inside the vehicle.
L'arrière du véhicule est constituée comme précédemment par un fond 16 appartenant au caisson 2, est dissimulé dans le caisson 1 un cadre 22 ultra léger assurant la rigidité des caissons 1 et 2 et l'homogénéié mécanique des axes E.The rear of the vehicle is constituted as previously by a bottom 16 belonging to the box 2, is concealed in the box 1 an ultra light frame 22 ensuring the rigidity of the boxes 1 and 2 and the mechanical homogeneity of the axes E.
A titre d'exemples, alors qu'en position route l'encombrement est de 2m45 de large sur 4m80 de long, 1 ' envergure de celui-ci une fois ouvert est de 5m60 de long sur de large. On dispose ainsi d'un volume habitable beaucoup plus important que dans les caravanes ou caπiping- cars traditionnels.By way of example, while in the road position the overall dimensions are 2m45 wide by 4m80 long, the span of the latter once opened is 5m60 long by wide. There is thus a much larger living space than in traditional caravans or caπipingcars.
La figure 3 représente une vue par dessus des planchers 15 et de leur découpe, en trait pointillé, permettant le rangement. Les planchers 15 se chevauchent en partie et les découpes 16 permettent le rangement. On distingue également sur cette figure des rails circulaires 17 excentrés par rapport à l'axe 3 qui sont adjacents les uns aux autres servant de guidage aux éléments de plancher et une béquille 19 assurant la stabilité de celui-ci au niveau du Danneau 7. La figure 4 est également une coupe verticale montrant l'emboîtement des panneaux verticaux et de la toiture. Comme cela apparaît bien sur cette figure, les volets ou panneaux 7, 9 et 11 sont constitués par des secteurs cylindriques de diamètres croissants de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur du caisson 2. Comme cela apparaît mieux sur cette figure, des joints d'étanchéité à lèvres 20 sont disposés à face interne 21 des panneaux décoratifs renforcés d'une matière d'isolation thermique. La hauteur des panneaux 7, 9 et 11 est également croissante de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur de manière à constituer une pente d'écoulement des eaux pluviales.FIG. 3 represents a view from above of the floors 15 and of their cutout, in dotted lines, allowing storage. The floors 15 partially overlap and the cutouts 16 allow storage. We also distinguish in this figure circular rails 17 eccentric with respect to the axis 3 which are adjacent to each other serving as a guide for the floor elements and a stand 19 ensuring the stability of the latter at the level of the Danneau 7. Figure 4 is also a vertical section showing the interlocking of the vertical panels and the roof. As can be seen in this figure, the flaps or panels 7, 9 and 11 are formed by cylindrical sectors of increasing diameters from the outside towards the inside of the box 2. As is better seen in this figure, gaskets sealing lips 20 are arranged on the inner face 21 of the decorative panels reinforced with a thermal insulation material. The height of the panels 7, 9 and 11 is also increasing from the outside to the inside so as to constitute a slope for the flow of rainwater.
Dans l'exemple qui vient d'être décrit et représenté, les volets ou panneaux s'ouvrent et se referment autour d'un axe unique respectivement 3 ou 4. Il est possible de modifier le mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit soit en utilisant un système d'axe décalé soit en utilisant un mode de pliage ou dépliage différents. Deux exemples de pliage sont représentés sché atiquement sur la figure 5 sur la partie droite de la figure, le panneau 9 peut se replier autour d'un axe 10 dégageant ainsi l'espace nécessaire pour que le panneau 7 puisse se refermer dans le caisson 2. Sur la partie gauche de la figure constituée par seulement deux volets 7 et 9, le volet 9 se replie autour de l'axe 12 alors que seul le volet se replie autour de l'axe 4.In the example which has just been described and shown, the shutters or panels open and close around a single axis respectively 3 or 4. It is possible to modify the embodiment which has just been described either using an offset axis system either using a different folding or unfolding mode. Two folding examples are shown diagrammatically in Figure 5 on the right side of the figure, the panel 9 can be folded around an axis 10 thus freeing up the space necessary for the panel 7 to be able to close in the box 2 On the left part of the figure consisting of only two flaps 7 and 9, the flap 9 folds around the axis 12 while only the flap folds around the axis 4.
Il va de soi que de nombreuses variantes peuvent être apportées, notamment par substitution de moyens techniques équivalents, sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention. It goes without saying that many variants can be made, in particular by substitution of equivalent technical means, without departing from the scope of the invention.
