Description

ELEMENT DE STRUCTURE POUR LE POSITIONNEMENT D'UNE GACHE DESTINEE A COOPERER AVEC UNE SERRURE D'UN OUVRANT DE  STRUCTURE ELEMENT FOR POSITIONING A SPACER FOR COOPERATING WITH A LOCK OF AN OPENING OF
VEHICULE AUTOMOBILE La présente invention se rapporte à un élément de structure pour la fixation d'un sous-ensemble de verrouillage d'un ouvrant d'un véhicule, à un kit comprenant l'élément de structure et le sous-ensemble, à un véhicule équipé d'un tel kit et à un procédé de fixation du sous-ensemble sur l'élément de structure.  The present invention relates to a structural element for fastening a locking subassembly of an opening of a vehicle, to a kit comprising the structural element and the subassembly, to a vehicle equipped with such a kit and a method of fixing the subassembly on the structural element.
Un ouvrant de véhicule comporte généralement une serrure solidaire de l'ouvrant coopérant avec une gâche disposée sur un élément de carrosserie du véhicule pour assurer le verrouillage de l'ouvrant. De façon traditionnelle, la gâche est disposée sur une semelle afin de permettre son positionnement sur l'élément de carrosserie : en effet, le positionnement de la gâche nécessite un alignement correct de celle-ci avec la serrure. Pour obtenir l'alignement correct il est connu, par exemple de la demande de brevet FR 2 918 402, de positionner une semelle sur l'élément de structure en engageant des pions de centrage faisant saillie de ladite semelle dans des orifices de fixation correspondants qui autorisent le déplacement dans une direction prédéterminée de la semelle ; l'ouvrant est ensuite fermé en s'assurant que la gâche et la serrure sont correctement alignées grâce au déplacement de la semelle. Afin de conserver cet alignement la semelle est définitivement fixée sur l'élément de carrosserie en introduisant des moyens de fixation dans des orifices ménagés à cet effet dans la semelle et dans l'élément de structure. La fixation de la semelle est généralement effectuée alors que l'ouvrant reste fermé, les orifices pour les moyens de fixation étant alors accessibles depuis l'intérieur du véhicule. L'accès aux orifices prévus pour les moyens de fixation est donc souvent difficile et oblige l'opérateur chargé de l'assemblage à prendre des positions très inconfortables. Ces positions inconfortables peuvent parfois même occasionner des blessures à l'opérateur.  A vehicle opening generally comprises a lock integral with the opening cooperating with a keeper disposed on a bodywork element of the vehicle to ensure the locking of the opening. Traditionally, the strike is arranged on a sole to allow its positioning on the body member: indeed, the positioning of the striker requires a proper alignment thereof with the lock. To obtain the correct alignment, it is known, for example from the patent application FR 2 918 402, to position a soleplate on the structural element by engaging centering pins projecting from said soleplate in corresponding fixing orifices which allow movement in a predetermined direction of the sole; the opening is then closed by ensuring that the striker and the lock are properly aligned by moving the sole. In order to maintain this alignment, the soleplate is permanently fixed to the bodywork element by introducing fastening means in orifices provided for this purpose in the soleplate and in the structural element. The fixing of the soleplate is generally performed while the opening remains closed, the orifices for the fastening means then being accessible from inside the vehicle. Access to the holes provided for the fastening means is therefore often difficult and forces the operator responsible for assembly to take very uncomfortable positions. These uncomfortable positions can sometimes even cause injury to the operator.
Selon la configuration de l'ouvrant, il peut également s'avérer nécessaire de ré-ouvrir l'ouvrant pour fixer définitivement la semelle sur l'élément de carrosserie, en particulier pour dégager l'accès aux orifices destinés à recevoir les moyens de fixation. Lors de l'ouverture de l'ouvrant, la semelle peut alors se déplacer et l'alignement n'est plus garanti, occasionnant un mauvais montage de la gâche. La présente invention a pour objet de remédier en tout ou partie aux différents inconvénients cités précédemment. Dans ce contexte technique, la présente invention a pour objet de fournir un élément de structure permettant de diminuer les étapes d'assemblage d'une gâche, d'éviter les erreurs de montages de celle-ci et permettant de ne pas occasionner de blessure à l'opérateur de montage. Depending on the configuration of the opening, it may also be necessary to re-open the opening to permanently fix the sole on the bodywork element, in particular to clear access to the holes for receiving the fastening means . When opening the opening, the sole can then move and the alignment is no longer guaranteed, causing a bad mounting of the striker. The present invention aims to remedy all or part of the various disadvantages mentioned above. In this technical context, the object of the present invention is to provide a structural element making it possible to reduce the steps of assembly of a striker, to avoid assembly errors thereof and to avoid causing injury to the striker. the editing operator.
A cet effet, la présente invention se rapporte à un élément de structure d'un véhicule présentant au moins un orifice de fixation pour permettre le passage et la fixation d'un organe de fixation d'un sous-ensemble de verrouillage d'un ouvrant, ledit élément de structure étant caractérisé en ce que chaque orifice de fixation présente une zone d'insertion conçue pour le passage d'un organe de fixation et prolongée par une fente de guidage s'étendant selon une direction prédéterminée.  To this end, the present invention relates to a structural element of a vehicle having at least one fastening orifice to allow the passage and the fixing of a fastener of a locking subassembly of an opening , said structural member being characterized in that each fixing hole has an insertion zone adapted for the passage of a fastener and extended by a guide slot extending in a predetermined direction.
La présente invention concerne également un kit comprenant, d'une part, un élément de structure conforme à l'invention et, d'autre part, un sous-ensemble de verrouillage d'un ouvrant d'un véhicule destiné à être fixé sur l'élément de structure et comprenant :  The present invention also relates to a kit comprising, on the one hand, a structural element according to the invention and, on the other hand, a locking subassembly of an opening of a vehicle intended to be fixed on the structural element and comprising:
- une embase présentant une première face et une seconde face opposées l'une à l'autre, la première face étant conçue pour être positionnée en appui sur l'élément de structure ;  a base having a first face and a second face opposite to each other, the first face being designed to be positioned in abutment on the structural element;
- une gâche faisant saillie de la seconde face et destinée à coopérer avec une serrure disposée sur l'ouvrant ;  - A striker projecting from the second face and intended to cooperate with a lock disposed on the opening;

Ainsi, un élément de structure selon l'invention permet de faciliter la fixation de l'embase d'un sous-ensemble contenu dans un kit selon l'invention sur l'élément de structure du véhicule : la translation de chaque organe de fixation dans la fente de l'orifice de fixation correspondant de l'élément de structure permet d'aligner la gâche avec la serrure, l'immobilisation du sous- ensemble s'effectuant ensuite grâce aux organes de fixation qui viennent enserrer l'élément de structure au niveau de ses fentes. Les éléments constitutifs du kit selon l'invention permettent d'éviter l'étape habituelle consistant à dégager l'accès à des orifices prévus pour l'insertion de moyens de fixation puisque chaque organe de fixation est préinstallé sur l'embase.  Thus, a structural element according to the invention makes it possible to facilitate the attachment of the base of a subassembly contained in a kit according to the invention to the vehicle structural element: the translation of each fastening member in the slot of the corresponding fastening hole of the structural element makes it possible to align the striker with the lock, the immobilization of the subassembly then taking place thanks to the fastening elements which enclose the structural element at the level of its slots. The constituent elements of the kit according to the invention make it possible to avoid the usual step of clearing the access to orifices provided for the insertion of fastening means since each fastener is pre-installed on the base.
Les éléments constitutifs du kit selon l'invention permettent de faciliter l'accès aux organes de fixation par l'extérieur du véhicule par l'aménagement de la structure du véhicule ceci afin d'éviter de ré-ouvrir l'ouvrant pour ne pas perdre l'alignement de la gâche avec la serrure. The constituent elements of the kit according to the invention make it possible to facilitate access to the fastening elements from the outside of the vehicle by the arrangement of the vehicle structure this to avoid re-opening the opening so as not to lose the alignment of the strike with the lock.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'élément de structure comprend en outre au moins un orifice de centrage, conçu pour coopérer avec un pion de centrage du sous-ensemble, chaque orifice de centrage étant prolongé par une fente de guidage parallèle à la fente.  In one embodiment of the invention, the structural element further comprises at least one centering orifice, designed to cooperate with a centering pin of the subassembly, each centering hole being extended by a parallel guide slot. at the slot.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'élément de structure comporte deux orifices de fixation et deux orifices de centrage.  In one embodiment of the invention, the structural element has two fixing orifices and two centering orifices.
Dans un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'élément de structure comporte des orifices afin de permettre l'accessibilité des organes de fixation par l'extérieur du véhicule.  In one embodiment of the invention, the structural element has orifices to allow accessibility of the fasteners from outside the vehicle.
Selon un mode de réalisation du kit, le sous-ensemble comporte au moins un pion de centrage faisant saillie de la première face de l'embase.  According to one embodiment of the kit, the subassembly comprises at least one centering pin projecting from the first face of the base.
La présente invention se rapporte également à un véhicule, notamment du type véhicule automobile, caractérisé en ce qu'il est équipé d'au moins un kit selon l'invention.  The present invention also relates to a vehicle, in particular of the motor vehicle type, characterized in that it is equipped with at least one kit according to the invention.
Enfin la présente invention concerne un procédé de fixation d'un sous-ensemble de verrouillage sur un élément de structure conforme à l'invention, comprenant les étapes successives suivantes consistant à :  Finally, the present invention relates to a method of fixing a locking subassembly on a structural element according to the invention, comprising the following successive steps consisting of:
- rapporter un organe de fixation sur une embase du sous- ensemble ;  - report a fastener on a base of the subassembly;
- insérer chaque organe de fixation du sous-ensemble dans la zone d'insertion de l'orifice de fixation correspondant de l'élément de structure ;  inserting each fastener of the subassembly into the insertion zone of the corresponding fixing orifice of the structural element;
- déplacer l'embase du sous-ensemble de manière à translater chaque organe de fixation dans la fente de guidage de l'orifice de fixation correspondant ;  moving the base of the subassembly so as to translate each fastener into the guide slot of the corresponding fixing orifice;
- assurer la fixation du sous-ensemble sur l'élément de structure à l'aide de chaque organe de fixation une fois que le sous-ensemble est disposé convenablement par rapport à l'élément de structure. - Ensure the attachment of the subassembly on the structural element with each fastener once the subassembly is arranged properly relative to the structural element.
L'invention sera bien comprise à l'aide de la description détaillée qui est exposée ci-dessous en regard du dessin annexé, représentant à titre d'exemples non limitatifs plusieurs formes de réalisation d'un sous-ensemble et d'un kit, dans lequel : The invention will be better understood with the aid of the detailed description which is set out below with reference to the appended drawing, representing by way of nonlimiting examples several embodiments of a subassembly and a kit, in which :
La figure 1 est une vue en perspective partielle d'un véhicule équipé d'un kit conforme à l'invention ; la figure 2 est une vue en perspective d'une première forme de réalisation d'un sous-ensemble contenu dans le kit ; Figure 1 is a partial perspective view of a vehicle equipped with a kit according to the invention; Figure 2 is a perspective view of a first embodiment of a subset contained in the kit;
la figure 3 est une vue en perspective d'une deuxième forme de réalisation d'un sous-ensemble ;  Figure 3 is a perspective view of a second embodiment of a subassembly;
la figure 4 est une vue de la face arrière d'un kit.  Figure 4 is a view of the rear face of a kit.
Un véhicule 1 selon l'invention, représenté sur la figure 1 , comporte un ouvrant 2 pouvant être maintenu en position fermée par une serrure 3 coopérant avec une gâche 4 d'un sous-ensemble 5 de verrouillage fixé sur un élément de structure 6 selon l'invention. Le sous-ensemble 5 et l'élément de structure 6 sont constitutifs d'un kit selon l'invention.  A vehicle 1 according to the invention, shown in FIG. 1, comprises an opening 2 that can be held in the closed position by a lock 3 cooperating with a latch 4 of a locking subassembly 5 fixed to a structural element 6 according to the invention. The subassembly 5 and the structural element 6 constitute a kit according to the invention.
Les sous-ensembles 5, représentés sur les figures 2 et 3 comportent chacun, outre la gâche 4, une embase 7 sensiblement plane et présentant une première face 8 et une seconde face 9 opposées l'une à l'autre. La première face 8 est conçue pour être positionnée en appui sur l'élément de structure 6. La gâche 4 fait saillie de la seconde face 9 tandis que deux organes de fixation 1 0 font saillie de la première face 8. Les organes de fixation 1 0 font également saillie de la seconde face 9 de l'embase 7. Par exemple, chaque organe de fixation 1 0 est constitué d'au moins une vis 1 1 , présentant une tête de vis 1 2 et un corps 1 3 longitudinal, et d'un écrou 14 monté sur l'embase 7. Dans les sous-ensembles 5 représentés sur les figures 1 , 2 et 3, les écrous 14 sont soudés sur la seconde face 9. L'organe de fixation 1 0 fait saillie de la première face 8 par la vis 1 1 et fait saillie de la seconde face 9 par l'écrou 14.  The subassemblies 5, shown in Figures 2 and 3 each comprise, in addition to the latch 4, a base 7 substantially flat and having a first face 8 and a second face 9 opposite to each other. The first face 8 is designed to be positioned in abutment on the structural element 6. The striker 4 protrudes from the second face 9 while two fasteners 1 0 protrude from the first face 8. The fasteners 1 0 also protrude from the second face 9 of the base 7. For example, each fastener 1 0 consists of at least one screw 1 1, having a screw head 1 2 and a longitudinal body 1 3, and a nut 14 mounted on the base 7. In the subassemblies 5 shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3, the nuts 14 are welded to the second face 9. The fastener 1 0 protrudes from the first face 8 by the screw 1 1 and protrudes from the second face 9 by the nut 14.
Dans un mode de réalisation du kit, le sous-ensemble 5, représenté sur la figure 3, comporte en outre des pions de centrage 1 5 qui font saillie de la première face 8.  In one embodiment of the kit, the subassembly 5, shown in FIG. 3, furthermore comprises centering pins 1 5 which project from the first face 8.
L'élément de structure 6 présente des orifices de fixation 16, illustrés à la figure 4, présentant chacune une zone d'insertion 1 7 prolongée par une fente 1 8 de guidage. La zone d'insertion 1 7 de chaque orifice de fixation 1 6 est conçue pour permettre l'insertion d'un organe de fixation 1 0 : par exemple, chaque zone d'insertion 1 7 a sensiblement la forme d'un orifice présentant des dimensions supérieures au diamètre maximum de la vis 1 1 , constitutive d'un organe de fixation 1 0, pour permettre le passage de la tête de vis 1 2. Chaque fente 1 8 est, par exemple, un orifice oblong s'étendant selon une direction privilégiée, et dont la largeur est sensiblement supérieure au diamètre du corps 1 3 faisant office de centreur mais inférieure au diamètre de la tête de vis 1 2. Toutes les fentes 1 8 sont orientées dans une même direction prédéterminée : ainsi, chaque organe de fixation 1 0 est conçu pour être introduit dans une zone d'insertion 1 7 et pour ensuite coopérer avec une fente 1 8 en permettant le déplacement de l'embase 7 dans la direction prédéterminée des fentes 18. Une fois que l'embase 7 est positionnée correctement pour permettre à la serrure 3 et à la gâche 4 de coopérer, les organes de fixation 1 0 sont conçus pour enserrer l'élément de structure 6 : par exemple, la vis 1 1 de chaque organe de fixation 1 0 est alors resserré de manière à fixer définitivement la position de l'embase 7 sur l'élément de structure 6. Pour faciliter cette opération, l'élément de structure 6 est conçu pour que chaque vis 1 1 soit positionnée sur le véhicule 1 de manière à être accessible depuis l'extérieur de celui-ci. La fixation est réalisée par un serrage de la vis 1 1 lorsque l'organe de fixation 1 0 est positionné dans la fente 1 8 : en effet, la zone d'insertion 17 ayant des dimensions supérieures à la tête de vis 1 2, la fixation ne peut être réalisée que lorsque l'organe de fixation 1 0 a été translaté dans la zone d'insertion 1 7. The structural element 6 has fixing orifices 16, illustrated in FIG. 4, each having an insertion zone 17 extended by a guide slot 18. The insertion zone 1 7 of each fixing orifice 1 6 is designed to allow the insertion of a fastener 1 0: for example, each insertion zone 1 7 has substantially the shape of an orifice having dimensions greater than the maximum diameter of the screw 1 1, constituting a fastener 1 0, to allow the passage of the screw head 1 2. Each slot 1 8 is, for example, an oblong orifice extending according to a preferred direction, and whose width is substantially greater than the diameter of the body 1 3 acting as centering but less than the diameter of the screw head 1 2. All the slots 1 8 are oriented in the same predetermined direction: thus, each fastener 1 0 is designed to be introduced into an insertion zone 1 7 and then to cooperate with a slot 1 8 allowing the displacement of the base 7 in the predetermined direction of the slots 18. Once the base 7 is positioned correctly to allow the lock 3 and the latch 4 to cooperate, the fasteners 1 0 are designed to to clamp the structural element 6: for example, the screw 1 1 of each fastener 1 0 is then tightened so as to permanently fix the position of the base 7 on the structural element 6. To facilitate this operation, the structural element 6 is designed so that each screw January 1 is positioned on the vehicle 1 so as to be accessible from outside the vehicle. Fixing is carried out by tightening the screw 1 1 when the fastener 1 0 is positioned in the slot 1 8: in fact, the insertion zone 17 having dimensions greater than the screw head 1 2, the fixation can be performed only when the fixing member 1 0 has been translated into the insertion zone 1 7.
Afin d'améliorer le déplacement et le positionnement de l'embase 7, des orifices de centrage 19 peuvent être ménagés dans l'élément de structure 6 : ces orifices de centrage 1 9 présentent une fente de guidage 20 sensiblement allongée selon la même direction privilégiée que les orifices de fixation 16. Les pions de centrage 1 5, représentés sur le sous-ensemble 5 de la figure 3, peuvent être insérés dans ces orifices de centrage 1 9. L'insertion d'un pion de centrage 1 5 dans un orifice de centrage 19 peut être obtenue en faisant subir au pion de centrage 1 5, par exemple, une déformation élastique ou encore les orifices de centrage 1 9 peuvent présenter une forme semblable aux orifices de fixation 1 6.
