Definitions
- TITLE Device for assembling two parts with position play.
- the present invention relates to a device for assembling two parts having a lateral position clearance in a given direction.
- the invention will find a particularly advantageous application in particular, but not exclusively, in the field of automobile construction.
- This play can be a lateral play in a direction X, in the sense that the parts are not contiguous, and are separated by a certain interval in the direction X.
- the play of position can also be transverse, in the plane YZ perpendicular to X, which results in the fact that the parts are not exactly opposite one another, the fixing holes of the parts to be assembled no longer being in coincidence.
- This type of situation is encountered in particular in automobile construction, when it comes to assembling the front interior cross member which carries a certain number of accessories (dashboard, air conditioner, airbag, etc.), to the pillars located on either side of the vehicle cabin. Tolerances in this area being wide, said crosspiece most often has a relatively large positional play with each of the pillars.
- the technical problem to be solved by the object of the present invention is to provide a device for assembling the two parts having a lateral position play in a given direction, which is simple both in its use and in its constitution.
- the solution to the technical problem posed consists, according to the present invention, in that the device comprises, aligned in said given direction:
- a fixing screw capable of moving freely through said smooth through hole and carrying a thread of a first type
- a spacer carrying, on the one hand, an external thread of said second type, able to cooperate with said threaded through hole, and on the other hand an internal thread of said first type, able to cooperate with said fixing screw, the coefficient of expected friction, directly or indirectly, between the fixing screw and the spacer being different from the coefficient of friction provided, directly or indirectly, between the spacer and the threaded through hole.
- the characteristics of the coefficient of friction are, for example, related to the angle of the thread of the threads / threads and / or to the properties of the materials present, in particular those of the friction members possibly provided between said fixing screw, said spacer and / or said threaded through hole.
- the term "type" of threading or tapping will be understood either as “to the right” or “to the left”.
- said first type of thread for the fixing screw and internal thread of the spacer is provided on the right, then the second type of thread of the threaded through hole and external thread of the spacer will be provided on the left.
- the device assembly according to the invention operates as follows, for a coefficient of friction between the fixing screw and the spacer greater than the coefficient of friction between the spacer and the threaded through hole.
- the fixing screw is first engaged in the spacer, secured to the second part, through the smooth through hole of the first part. It is then actuated and enters the spacer until the friction between the fixing screw and the spacer becomes sufficiently high, so that the driving movement applied to the screw causes the rotation of the spacer in the threaded through hole, the fixing screw and the spacer remaining fixed relative to each other.
- the screw / spacer assembly then moves in a reverse translation movement in the direction of insertion of the screw into the spacer. During this movement, the spacer engages in the interval between the two parts to be assembled until it abuts against the first part. At this time, the fixing screw can again penetrate into the spacer, until it comes to bear against the first part. The two parts are then completely and positively assembled.
- the implementation of the assembly device of the invention is very simple, since it requires as a single action only the rotational movement of the fixing screw.
- only two elements are necessary for its realization, namely a thread subjected to the second part, and a spacer cooperating with said thread and the fixing screw.
- Figure 1a is an overall side view of a first embodiment of the assembly device according to the invention.
- Figure 1b is a side view of the assembly device of Figure 1a in a first phase of implementation.
- Figure 1c is a side view of the assembly device of Figure 1a in a second implementation phase.
- Figure 1d is a side view of the assembly device of Figure 1a in a final phase of implementation.
- Figures 2a, 2b, 2c and 2d are views equivalent to Figures 1a to 1d, for a second embodiment of the assembly device according to the invention.
- Figures 3a, 3b, 3c and 3d are views equivalent to Figures 1a to 1d, for a third embodiment of the assembly device according to the invention.
- Figures 1 are shown in side view a device for assembling two parts, for example a pillar 1 of the passenger compartment of a vehicle and a front interior cross member 2.
- the two parts 1 and 2 to be assembled have at least one lateral position play in the direction X between them, characterized by an interval 3 between the pillar 1 and the cross-member 2.
- the assembly device of FIGS. 1 comprises a fixing screw 10 carrying a thread 11, on the right for example, and able to move freely through a smooth through hole 13, made in the pillar 1.
- said screw 10 fixing comprises a head 12 whose diameter is greater than the diameter of the smooth through hole 13, this in order to allow the head 12 to bear against the pillar 1 at the end of assembly.
- the assembly device of the invention also comprises a spacer 20 carrying an internal thread 21 on the right, capable of cooperating with the fixing screw 10, and an external thread 22 on the left capable of cooperating with a threaded through hole 23 left on the cross
- said threaded through hole is constituted by the internal thread 23 of a nut 24 welded to the crosspiece 2, but it could as well have been directly made in the thickness of the crosspiece 2.
- the fixing screw 10, the spacer 20 and the nut 24 are in direct connection with each other and provided in such a way that the coefficient of friction provided, directly or indirectly, between the fixing screw 10 and the spacer 20 is different from the coefficient of friction provided, directly or indirectly between the spacer 20 and the nut 24, for example upper.
- the fixing screw 10 is first engaged in the spacer 20 through the smooth hole 13.
- the spacer 20 being in particular kept fixed by the plastic tongue 26, the screw 10 can penetrate into the 'spacer 20 until the screwing torque transmitted to the tongue 26, via the screw friction 10 / spacer 20 is high enough to break the tongue 26.
- the fixing screw 10 can then continue its race in said spacer, and complete the assembly operation of the two parts 1 and 2, by pressing the head 12 of the screw against the pillar 1 , as shown in Figure 1d.
- FIG. 1d one can also see a radial hole 27 of blocking drilled in the spacer 20, allowing the introduction of a tool in order to block the spacer 20 in rotation when it is desired, for example, to unscrew the fixing screw 10 to disassemble the pillar assembly 1 / cross 2.
- connection between the spacer 20 and the fixing screw 10 is indirect. More specifically, the spacer 20 is provided with an inner friction ring 25 acting as a braking means capable of increasing the coefficient of friction between the fixing screw 10 and the spacer 20.
- said fixing screw 10 is then provided with a conical pilot tip 14. In this case, the plastic tab 26 can be omitted.
- connection between the threaded through hole 23 and the spacer 20 could also be indirect, in particular due to the use of a friction member between these two parts, which would modify their coefficient of friction.
- the spacer 20 of this embodiment can also be equipped, if necessary, with an external tongue or an internal ring as described with reference to FIGS. 1 or 2.
