Dans la description qui va suivre, on adoptera à titre non limitatif une orientation longitudinale, verticale et transversale selon l'orientation traditionnellement utilisée dans l'automobile et indiquée par le trièdre L, V, T.In the following description, a longitudinal, vertical and transverse orientation will be adopted in a non-limiting manner according to the orientation conventionally used in the automobile and indicated by the trihedron L, V, T.
En références aux figures, on a représenté une planche de bord 10 ou une console centrale 10 munie d'un compartiment 12 agencé dans la planche de bord et de préférence dans sa partie centrale. La partie centrale de la planche de bord, à proximité du conducteur est le plus souvent munie de commandes diverses destinées aux utilisateurs telles que des commandes de chauffage 14 ou un autoradio 16. Une tablette 18 se loge dans le compartiment 12 et comporte une surface plane 20 et un rebord 22 en saillie au niveau d'une l'extrémité de la surface plane de la tablette. Ce rebord 22 venant obturer le compartiment de rangement 12 lorsque la tablette se trouve dans une position de rangement dans le compartiment. En effet, la tablette comprend, en outre, des moyens de guidage 24, 28 apte à la faire coulisser entre deux positions extrêmes : une première position de rangement dans laquelle la tablette 18 est rangée dans le compartiment 12 et disposée sensiblement horizontalement et une seconde position d'utilisation dans laquelle la tablette 18 est coulissée hors de son compartiment de rangement et pivotée autour d'un axe 26 sensiblement transversal de manière à ce que sa surface plane se trouve dans un plan sensiblement vertical contre la planche de bord pour qu'un utilisateur puisse l'utiliser comme porte-document.Referring to the figures, there is shown a dashboard 10 or a central console 10 provided with a compartment 12 arranged in the dashboard and preferably in its central portion. The central part of the dashboard, close to the driver is most often provided with various controls for users such as heating controls 14 or a car radio 16. A tablet 18 is housed in the compartment 12 and has a flat surface 20 and a flange 22 projecting at one end of the flat surface of the tablet. This flange 22 closing the storage compartment 12 when the shelf is in a storage position in the compartment. Indeed, the tablet further comprises guiding means 24, 28 adapted to slide between two extreme positions: a first storage position in which the shelf 18 is stored in the compartment 12 and arranged substantially horizontally and a second use position in which the shelf 18 is slid out of its storage compartment and pivoted about a substantially transverse axis 26 so that its plane surface is in a substantially vertical plane against the dashboard so that a user can use it as a document holder.
Les moyens de guidage sont constitués par des tenons 24 disposés dans le compartiment de rangement 12 couplés à des rainures 28 réalisées sur la tablette. Les tenons 24 sont saillants et disposés symétriquement sur les faces latérales du compartiment 12 et plus particulièrement ils se trouvent au niveau de l'extrémité ouverte du compartiment de rangement. Ceci permettant de pouvoir faire coulisser la tablette dans un premier temps longitudinalement et dans un second temps verticalement. Ces tenons forment l'axe 26 sensiblement transversal.The guide means consist of pins 24 arranged in the storage compartment 12 coupled to grooves 28 made on the tablet. The pins 24 are protruding and arranged symmetrically on the side faces of the compartment 12 and more particularly they are at the open end of the storage compartment. This makes it possible to slide the tablet in a first time longitudinally and in a second time vertically. These tenons form the substantially transverse axis 26.
Les tenons 24 sont agencés dans les rainures 28 réalisées de part et d'autre sur les parois latérales 34 de la tablette 18 tel que représenté sur la figure 1 . Selon un premier mode de réalisation, ces rainures 28 présentent des moyens de blocage de la tablette 18 en position verticale sensiblement contre la planche de bord ou la console 10. Plus particulièrement, il s'agit d'au moins un bossage 30 en saillie par rapport à une des deux bordures 31 constituant une rainure 28.The tenons 24 are arranged in the grooves 28 made on either side of the side walls 34 of the shelf 18 as shown in FIG. According to a first embodiment, these grooves 28 have locking means for the shelf 18 in a vertical position substantially against the dashboard or the console 10. More particularly, it is about at least one boss 30 projecting from relative to one of the two borders 31 constituting a groove 28.
Le bossage 30 se trouve sur la rainure à une distance apte à masquer tout ou partie de l'ouverture du compartiment de rangement lorsque la tablette est déplacée verticalement pour son blocage. Avantageusement, les rainures 28 comportent plusieurs bossages 30 de manière à constituer différents crans de blocage pour ajuster le positionnement de la tablette verticalement ou horizontalement.The boss 30 is on the groove at a distance able to hide all or part of the opening of the storage compartment when the shelf is moved vertically for its blocking. Advantageously, the grooves 28 comprise several bosses 30 so as to form different locking notches to adjust the positioning of the tablet vertically or horizontally.
Le bossage 30 peut être disposé au niveau d'une seule rainure ou symétriquement au niveau des deux rainures de part et d'autre de la tablette 18 selon la résistance au poids à soutenir souhaitée. En effet, il convient de noter qu'avantageusement et indépendamment du mode de réalisation, le rebord 22 de la tablette 18 est destiné à permettre la retenue d'un objet positionné sur la surface plane 20. Ce rebord peut comporter des moyens 32 de retenue élastiques visant à maintenir l'objet tel qu'un carnet ou un document, plaqué contre la surface plane 20. Les moyens 32 de retenue élastiques sont par exemple une pince, et peuvent aussi éventuellement se positionner sur la moitié supérieure de la surface plane 20 lorsque la tablette est en position d'utilisation .The boss 30 may be arranged at a single groove or symmetrically at the two grooves on either side of the shelf 18 according to the desired resistance to weight support. Indeed, it should be noted that advantageously and independently of the embodiment, the rim 22 of the shelf 18 is intended to allow the retention of an object positioned on the flat surface 20. This flange may comprise means 32 for retaining resilient to hold the object such as a notebook or a document, pressed against the flat surface 20. The resilient retaining means 32 are for example a clamp, and may also possibly be positioned on the upper half of the flat surface 20 when the tablet is in the use position.
Le rebord 22 permet, en outre, une préhension pour la manipulation de la tablette 18 et son déplacement jusqu'à la position d'utilisation. On constatera par ailleurs, qu'afin d'assurer l'esthétisme de la planche de bord, le rebord comporte un habillage ou un matériau identique à la planche de bord ou à la console sur laquelle se trouve le compartiment de rangement de la tablette sur sa partie visible lorsque la tablette est en position de rangement.The flange 22 further allows a gripping for the handling of the tablet 18 and its movement to the position of use. It will be noted, moreover, that to ensure the aesthetics of the dashboard, the rim has a covering or a material identical to the dashboard or the console on which is the storage compartment of the tablet on its visible part when the tablet is in storage position.
Le fonctionnement de la tablette selon le premier mode de réalisation de la présente invention est décrit ci-dessous en référence aux figures 1 à 3.The operation of the tablet according to the first embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to Figures 1 to 3.
Ainsi, un utilisateur souhaitant passer de la position de rangement à la position d'utilisation de la tablette selon l'invention devra faire coulisser la tablette vers lui en passant en force les points durs constitués par les bossages, puis la faire pivoter autour des tenons 24 vers le bas. L'utilisateur devra ensuite faire coulisser la tablette vers le haut tel qu'illustré sur les figures, la tablette se bloquera ainsi verticalement en passant en force les bossages jusqu'à la hauteur souhaitée afin de dégager les dispositifs de commande situés sous le compartiment de rangement de la tablette.Thus, a user wishing to move from the storage position to the position of use of the tablet according to the invention will slide the tablet towards him by forcing the hard points formed by the bosses, then rotate around the tenons 24 down. The user will then slide the tablet upwards as shown in the figures, the tablet will thus lock vertically by forcing the bosses to the desired height to clear the control devices located under the compartment. storage of the tablet.
Le passage de la position d'utilisation à la position de rangement s'opère en effectuant les manœuvres inverses.The transition from the position of use to the storage position is effected by performing reverse maneuvers.
En regard maintenant au second mode de réalisation, la tablette comporte des moyens de blocage 36 constitués d'une partie saillante disposée sur la surface opposée à la surface plane 20 de la tablette 18 apte à coopérer avec une contre forme 38 réalisée sur une planche de bord 10 ou une console 10 de manière à bloquer la tablette en translation verticalement. La partie saillante est un crochet 36 sensiblement en forme de L renversé. Le fonctionnement de la tablette selon le second mode de réalisation de la présente invention est décrit ci-dessous en référence à la figure 4.Referring now to the second embodiment, the shelf comprises locking means 36 consisting of a projecting portion disposed on the surface opposite to the flat surface 20 of the shelf 18 adapted to cooperate with a counter form 38 formed on a board of edge 10 or a console 10 so as to lock the tablet in translation vertically. The projecting portion is a hook 36 substantially inverted L-shaped. The operation of the tablet according to the second embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to FIG. 4.
Ainsi, un utilisateur souhaitant passer de la position de rangement à la position d'utilisation de la tablette selon le second mode de réalisation l'invention devra faire coulisser la tablette vers lui, puis la faire pivoter autour des tenons 24 vers le bas. L'utilisateur devra ensuite faire coulisser la tablette vers le haut tel qu'illustré sur les figures, puis il devra bloquer la tablette verticalement en engageant le crochet 36 dans la contreforme disposée sur la planche de bord ou la console 10 et de préférence dans leur partie supérieure. Les dispositifs de commande situés sous le compartiment de rangement de la tablette sont ainsi dégagés.Thus, a user wishing to move from the storage position to the use position of the tablet according to the second embodiment of the invention will slide the tablet towards him, then rotate around the pins 24 downwards. The user will then slide the shelf upward as shown in the figures, then he will block the shelf vertically by engaging the hook 36 in the counterform arranged on the dashboard or the console 10 and preferably in their the top part. The control devices located under the storage compartment of the tablet are thus released.
Le passage de la position d'utilisation à la position de rangement s'opère en effectuant les manœuvres inverses.The transition from the position of use to the storage position is effected by performing reverse maneuvers.
Dans cette dernière position pour les deux modes de réalisation, la face arrière de la tablette 18 se trouve sensiblement contre la planche de bord ou la console. L'utilisateur peut, enfin, positionner un document contre la surface plane de la tablette et l'accrocher avec moyens 32 de retenue élastiques. Il pourra ainsi visualiser le contenu du document beaucoup plus confortablement et rapidement en comparaison avec une tablette de type horizontale en position d'utilisation.In this latter position for both embodiments, the rear face of the tablet 18 is substantially against the dashboard or the console. The user can, finally, position a document against the flat surface of the tablet and hang it with resilient retaining means 32. It will thus be able to visualize the content of the document much more comfortably and quickly in comparison with a horizontal type tablet in position of use.
Tel que mentionné ci-dessus dans la description, l'agencement est disposé sur une planche de bord et de préférence centré sur la planche de bord pour faciliter la lecture pour un conducteur à l'arrêt ou son passager. Avantageusement, il peut être disposé sur une console centrale 10 disposée entre deux sièges de véhicule pour une utilisation par les passagers d'une rangée arrière de sièges. As mentioned above in the description, the arrangement is arranged on a dashboard and preferably centered on the dashboard to facilitate reading for a stationary driver or his passenger. Advantageously, it can be arranged on a central console 10 arranged between two vehicle seats for use by passengers in a rear row of seats.
