PROCEDE ET SYSTEME DE MONTAGE DE MODULE DE CLIMATISATIONMETHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MOUNTING AIR CONDITIONING MODULE
SUR TRAVERSE, PLANCHE DE BORD DE VEHICULE INTEGRANT UNON CROSSING, VEHICLE DASHBOARD WITH INTEGRATED
TEL MODULE ET VEHICULE AINSI EQUIPESUCH MODULE AND VEHICLE THUS EQUIPPED
L'invention concerne un procédé de montage de module de climatisation sur une traverse de structure, un système de mise en oeuvre de ce procédé, une planche de bord d'un véhicule intégrant un module de climatisation ainsi monté et un véhicule ainsi équipé. Une planche de bord de véhicule se rapporte ici à une structure unitaire comportant les moyens de commande et de fonctionnalité, pouvant également être désignée par « cockpit », et située sous le pare-brise du véhicule et s'étendant sur toute la largeur du véhicule.The invention relates to a method for mounting an air conditioning module on a structural cross member, a system for implementing this method, a dashboard of a vehicle incorporating an air conditioning module thus mounted and a vehicle thus equipped. A vehicle dashboard here relates to a unitary structure comprising the control and functionality means, which can also be designated by "cockpit", and located under the vehicle windshield and extending over the entire width of the vehicle .
L'invention s'applique en particulier dans le domaine des véhicules automobiles. Traditionnellement, dans un véhicule automobile, les modules climatiseurs sont fixés soit sur la caisse du véhicule soit sur la traverse structurelle dé la planche de bord. Cette fixation est réalisée au moyen de vis, boulons, rivets ou agrafes dont le nombre est adapté.The invention applies in particular in the field of motor vehicles. Traditionally, in a motor vehicle, the air conditioning modules are fixed either on the vehicle body or on the structural cross member of the dashboard. This fixing is carried out by means of screws, bolts, rivets or staples of which the number is suitable.
Ce type de fixation induit de nombreux inconvénients : temps de pose importants du fait notamment de la difficulté d'accès, démontages délicats, coûts élevés du fait de l'utilisation d'éléments ajoutés', ainsi que vibrations et bruits parasites.This type of attachment induced many disadvantages: significant exposure time mainly because of the difficulty of access, delicate disassembly, high costs due to the use of elements added to as well as vibration and noise.
Pour résoudre ces problèmes, tout au moins certains d'entre eux, l'invention propose de s'affranchir de moyens de fixation ajoutés en réalisant un montage pivotant.To solve these problems, at least some of them, the invention proposes to dispense with added fixing means by performing a pivoting assembly.
Plus précisément, l'invention a pour objet un procédé de montage de module de climatisation sur une traverse de structure consistant, dans une première étape, à assembler par liaison en rotation le module sur la traverse puis à faire pivoter le module et, dans une deuxième étape, à crocheter de manière amovible une partie pivotante du module sur la traverse.More specifically, the subject of the invention is a method for mounting an air conditioning module on a structural cross member consisting, in a first step, in assembling the module on the cross member by rotation, then rotating the module and, in a second step, detachably hooking a pivoting part of the module on the crosspiece.
Pour mettre en oeuvre ce procédé, il est également proposé un système de montage de module de climatisation longitudinal sur une traverse de structure de planche de bord de véhicule, comportant au moins un longeron solidaire du module de climatisation perpendiculairement à sa direction longitudinale, un support de la traverse de structure complémentaire pour recevoir ledit longeron sur une amplitude de pivotement suffisante, et des moyens de crochetage amovible complémentaires fixés sur le module à monter et sur la traverse de structure. Selon des modes de réalisation particuliers, les longerons du module sont deux éléments cylindriques symétriques par rapport à la direction longitudinale, le support est semi-cylindrique et s'étend au fond d'une gorge disposée parallèlement à la traverse, et les moyens de crochetage sont du type clipsage constitués d'une partie mâle en forme de crochet, présentant une portion à double lame élastique terminée par une portion évasée, ainsi que d'une partie femelle dont l'ouverture permet une insertion en force du crochet. En variante, le crochet peut basculer contre une force de rappel et revenir sur une position de verrouillage par l'exercice de cette force. Avantageusement les têtes des crochets sont en matériau élastomères ou caoutchouc, absorbant les vibrations et les bruits parasites.To implement this method, a system for mounting a longitudinal air conditioning module is also proposed on a cross member of a vehicle dashboard structure, comprising at least one spar integral with the air conditioning module perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, a support of the crossmember of complementary structure to receive said spar over a sufficient amplitude of pivoting, and of additional removable hooking means fixed on the module to be mounted and on the crossmember of structure. According to particular embodiments, the longitudinal members of the module are two cylindrical elements symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal direction, the support is semi-cylindrical and extends at the bottom of a groove disposed parallel to the cross member, and the hooking means are of the clipping type consisting of a male hook-shaped part, having a portion with elastic double blade terminated by a flared portion, as well as a female part whose opening allows forceful insertion of the hook. Alternatively, the hook can tilt against a restoring force and return to a locking position by the exercise of this force. Advantageously, the hook heads are made of elastomeric or rubber material, absorbing vibrations and parasitic noise.
L'invention se rapporte également à une planche de bord intégrant une traverse de structure et le module de climatisation monté sur la traverse selon le système de l'invention, ainsi qu'au véhicule équipé d'une telle planche de bord.The invention also relates to a dashboard incorporating a structural cross member and the air conditioning module mounted on the cross member according to the system of the invention, as well as to the vehicle equipped with such a dash board.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit, relative à des exemples de réalisation illustrés par les figures annexées de vues schématiques, qui représentent respectivement : - la figure 1 , une vue perspective d'un ensemble module de climatisation et traverse de planche de bord avant montage du module ;Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will appear on reading the detailed description which follows, relating to exemplary embodiments illustrated by the appended figures of schematic views, which respectively represent: - Figure 1, a perspective view of an air conditioning module and dashboard cross member assembly before assembly of the module;
- la figure 2, une vue supérieure de l'ensemble précédent après une première étape de montage du module sur la traverse par liaison en rotation selon l'invention; - la figure 3, une vue avant montrant les moyens de crochetage du module sur la traverse aptes à réaliser la deuxième étape de montage selon l'invention; et- Figure 2, a top view of the previous assembly after a first step of mounting the module on the crossmember by rotary link according to the invention; - Figure 3, a front view showing the hooking means of the module on the cross member capable of performing the second mounting step according to the invention; and
- la figure 4, une vue perspective latérale de l'ensemble précédent après connexion des moyens de crochetage. La figure 1 illustre la mise en position d'un module de climatisation 1 face à une traverse 2 de planche de bord avant montage du module.- Figure 4, a side perspective view of the previous assembly after connection of the hooking means. Figure 1 illustrates the positioning of an air conditioning module 1 facing a cross 2 of dashboard before mounting the module.
Le module de climatisation 1 s'étend globalement le long d'une direction longitudinale D et comporte, selon l'exemple non limitatif illustré, deux longerons cylindriques coaxiaux 10, disposés orthogonalement et symétriquement par rapport à cette direction. Ces longerons 10 jaillissent hors des flancs latéraux F du module 1 , de manière à permettre leur insertion dans une structure complémentaire de la traverse 2 dont la direction globale est parallèle aux longerons.The air conditioning module 1 extends generally along a longitudinal direction D and comprises, according to the nonlimiting example illustrated, two coaxial cylindrical beams 10, arranged orthogonally and symmetrically with respect to this direction. These beams 10 spring outside the lateral flanks F of the module 1, so as to allow their insertion into a structure complementary to the cross member 2 whose overall direction is parallel to the side members.
Cette insertion est prévue, dans la traverse de structure 2, dans une gorge 20 à fond semi-cylindrique, pour le premier longeron 10, et dans un alésage cylindrique 21 (dessiné en traits pointillés sur la figure) pour le second longeron, les gorges et alésages étant formés dans des bras transversaux 2a de la traverse 2. Sur cette figure apparaît également la plaque 23 qui sert au montage final par pivotement de la partie 1 a du module 1.This insertion is provided, in the structural cross member 2, in a groove 20 with a semi-cylindrical bottom, for the first spar 10, and in a cylindrical bore 21 (drawn in dotted lines in the figure) for the second spar, the grooves and bores being formed in transverse arms 2a of the cross member 2. In this figure also appears the plate 23 which is used for the final mounting by pivoting of the part 1 a of the module 1.
La vue supérieure de la figure 2 illustre une première étape du montage dans laquelle le module 1 est assemblé par liaison en rotation sur la traverse 2. Les longerons 10 sont insérés dans les supports cylindriques d'accueil, tel que la gorge 20 formée dans le bras de support 2a de la traverse 2. La gorge est suffisamment profonde pour éviter le décrochement du longeron lors du pivotement de la partie 1a réalisé par l'opérateur une fois le premier assemblage effectué.The upper view of FIG. 2 illustrates a first stage of assembly in which the module 1 is assembled by rotational connection on the cross member 2. The longitudinal members 10 are inserted in the cylindrical receiving supports, such as the groove 20 formed in the support arm 2a of the cross member 2. The groove is deep enough to prevent the side member from detaching during the pivoting of the part 1a produced by the operator once the first assembly has been carried out.
En figure 3, la vue avant illustrée montre un exemple de moyens de crochetage amovible du module sur la traverse, aptes à réaliser la deuxième étape de montage selon l'invention. Ces moyens complémentaires sont de type clipsage. Dans cet exemple, ces moyens sont constitués d'une partie mâle en forme de crochet 12 fixé sur la partie 1 a du module 1 et d'une partie femelle formée d'un orifice 22 découpée dans une plaque 23 solidaire de la traverse 2. Le crochet 12 présente une portion à double lame élastiqueIn FIG. 3, the illustrated front view shows an example of removable hooking means of the module on the cross-member, capable of carrying out the second mounting step according to the invention. These additional means are of the clipping type. In this example, these means consist of a male hook-shaped part 12 fixed to part 1 a of module 1 and of a female part formed by an orifice 22 cut from a plate 23 integral with the cross-member 2. The hook 12 has a portion with an elastic double blade
12a terminée par une tête 12b. Les dimensions de l'orifice 22 sont ajustées pour permettre une insertion en force du crochet grâce à l'élasticité de ses lames. Les caractéristiques de rigidité du matériau des lames sont toutefois choisies, ainsi que la forme des têtes adaptée, pour réaliser un clipsage ferme. Après insertion, la tête 12b du crochet 12 repose sur la plaque 23.12a terminated by a head 12b. The dimensions of the orifice 22 are adjusted to allow a forceful insertion of the hook thanks to the elasticity of its blades. The stiffness characteristics of the material of the blades are however chosen, as well as the shape of the heads adapted, to achieve a firm clipping. After insertion, the head 12b of the hook 12 rests on the plate 23.
La vue latérale illustrée par la figure 4, montre l'ensemble de la traverse 2 et du module 1 après connexion entre les moyens de crochetage de la partie 1 a du module. La distance entre les moyens de crochetage et les moyens de liaison en rotation est déterminée pour que les longerons 0 soient maintenus serrés dans la gorge 20 par verrouillage du crochet 12 dans la plaque 23. Pour démonter le module, il suffit de défaire le crochetage amovible en provoquant le rapprochement des lames des crochets, les têtes du crochet passant alors à travers l'orifice.The side view illustrated in FIG. 4 shows the assembly of the cross member 2 and of the module 1 after connection between the hooking means of the part 1a of the module. The distance between the hooking means and the rotational connection means is determined so that the longitudinal members 0 are held tight in the groove 20 by locking the hook 12 in the plate 23. To dismantle the module, it suffices to undo the removable hooking by bringing the blades closer to the hooks, the hook heads then passing through the orifice.
L'invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation décrits et illustrés. II est par exemple possible de prévoir plusieurs moyens de clipsage, d'inverser les moyens mâles et femelles de clipsage ou de liaison en rotation sur la traverse et le module de climatisation.The invention is not limited to the embodiments described and illustrated. It is for example possible to provide several clipping means, to reverse the male and female clipping or connection means in rotation on the cross member and the air conditioning module.
Il est également possible de prévoir des moyens de liaison en rotation par des liaisons de type rotule, nervure ou à glissière, et des moyens de crochetage amovible formés d'axes en matériau élastique à expansion radiale par compression ou de crochets de type paroi creuse à expansion réglable.It is also possible to provide means for rotationally connecting by means of ball-joint, rib or sliding type connections, and removable hooking means formed by axes of elastic material with radial expansion by compression or by hooks of the hollow wall type with adjustable expansion.
Par ailleurs l'invention peut s'appliquer à tout type de véhicule disposant d'une planche de bord : avion de tourisme, canot hors-bord, etc. Furthermore, the invention can be applied to any type of vehicle having a dashboard: private plane, outboard canoe, etc.
