Elle concerne plus particulièrement des moyens de protection contre les gravillons qui sont au moins en partie positionnés en avant des roues arrière du véhicule.It relates more particularly to means of protection against gravel which are at least partly positioned in front of the rear wheels of the vehicle.
Il est connu d’avoir une protection contre les gravillons qui est composée d’un adhésif, en général un film en PVC transparent, qui est collé en avant de la roue arrière du véhicule et qui permet de protéger la carrosserie contre des gravillons qui sont projetés par les roues avant du véhicule.It is known to have protection against stone chips which is composed of an adhesive, generally a transparent PVC film, which is stuck in front of the rear wheel of the vehicle and which makes it possible to protect the bodywork against stone chips which are thrown by the front wheels of the vehicle.
Cependant une telle protection est à la fois fragile, pouvant présenter une usure précoce et est difficile à positionner correctement.However, such protection is both fragile, can show early wear and is difficult to position correctly.
Le dispositif selon l’invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient.The device according to the invention makes it possible to remedy this drawback.
Il comporte en effet, selon l’invention, un véhicule dont la carrosserie comporte des moyens de protection contre les gravillons, lesdits moyens de protection contre les gravillons étant au moins en partie positionnés en avant des roues arrière dudit véhicule, telle que la carrosserie comporte une empreinte positionnée à l’emplacement desdits moyens de protection contre les gravillons, lesdits moyens de protection contre les gravillons étant adaptés pour être au moins en partie positionnés dans ladite empreinte.It indeed comprises, according to the invention, a vehicle whose bodywork comprises means of protection against gravel, said means of protection against gravel being at least partly positioned in front of the rear wheels of said vehicle, such that the bodywork comprises an imprint positioned at the location of said means of protection against gravel, said means of protection against gravel being adapted to be at least partly positioned in said imprint.
Selon une première caractéristique de l’invention, lesdits moyens de protection comportent une plaque qui est adaptée pour épouser la forme intérieure de l’empreinte formée dans ladite carrosserie, la plaque étant préférentiellement formée dans une matière amortissante telle que de l’éthylène propylène diène monomère (EPDM) ou du polypropylène, lui permettant de durer dans le temps et d’amortir le bruit créé par la projection des gravillons contre cette plaque.According to a first characteristic of the invention, said means of protection comprise a plate which is adapted to match the internal shape of the imprint formed in said bodywork, the plate being preferably formed in a damping material such as ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) or polypropylene, allowing it to last over time and to dampen the noise created by the projection of gravel against this plate.
Selon une deuxième caractéristique de l’invention, la plaque est collée ou clippée dans l’empreinte formée dans ladite carrosserie.According to a second characteristic of the invention, the plate is glued or clipped in the recess formed in said bodywork.
Selon une troisième caractéristique de l’invention, la profondeur de l’empreinte formée dans ladite carrosserie est adaptée pour que la plaque une fois positionnée, soit affleurante avec la partie de la carrosserie qui est positionnée sur le pourtour de ladite empreinte.According to a third characteristic of the invention, the depth of the indentation formed in said bodywork is adapted so that the plate, once positioned, is flush with the part of the bodywork which is positioned on the periphery of said indentation.
Selon mode de réalisation de l’invention, la carrosserie du véhicule comporte un élément d’habillage tel qu’un bas de caisse, au moins une partie de l’empreinte étant formée sur ledit élément d’habillage, ladite partie des moyens de protection étant adaptée pour être au moins en partie positionnée dans au moins la partie de l’empreinte qui est formée sur ledit élément d’habillage, l’élément d’habillage pouvant comporter une partie de ces moyens de fixation qui est adaptée pour être positionnée dans l’empreinte et pour être recouvert par lesdits moyens de protection.According to one embodiment of the invention, the body of the vehicle comprises a trim element such as a rocker panel, at least part of the imprint being formed on said trim element, said part of the protection means being adapted to be at least partly positioned in at least the part of the imprint which is formed on said covering element, the covering element being able to comprise a part of these fixing means which is adapted to be positioned in the imprint and to be covered by said means of protection.
De tels moyens de protection contre les gravillons pouvant aussi former un support pour un monogramme, permettant de personnaliser de manière simple un véhicule.Such means of protection against gravel can also form a support for a monogram, making it possible to personalize a vehicle in a simple manner.
Les dessins annexés illustrent l’invention :The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:
En référence aux figures 1 et 2, est représenté un véhicule dont la carrosserie 1 comporte des moyens de protection 2 contre les gravillons.With reference to Figures 1 and 2, a vehicle is shown whose bodywork 1 includes means of protection 2 against gravel.
Les moyens de protection 2 sont positionnés en avant des roues arrière du véhicule 1, à un emplacement qui est particulièrement exposé aux projections de gravillons provenant des roues avant lors du roulage du véhicule.The protection means 2 are positioned in front of the rear wheels of the vehicle 1, at a location which is particularly exposed to projections of gravel coming from the front wheels when the vehicle is rolling.
Les moyens de protection 2 sont, dans un mode de réalisation préférentiel tel que représenté, formés par une plaque 21.The protection means 2 are, in a preferred embodiment as shown, formed by a plate 21.
La carrosserie 1 comporte une empreinte 11 positionnée à l’emplacement de la plaque 21, avec la plaque 21 qui est adaptée pour épouser la forme intérieure de l’empreinte 11, permettant d’avoir un jeu minimum entre le pourtour de l’empreinte 11 et le pourtour de la plaque 21 et la profondeur de l’empreinte 11 est aussi adaptée pour que la plaque 21 une fois positionnée soit affleurante avec la partie de la carrosserie 1 qui est positionnée sur le pourtour de l’empreinte 11.The bodywork 1 includes an imprint 11 positioned at the location of the plate 21, with the plate 21 which is adapted to match the internal shape of the imprint 11, allowing a minimum clearance between the periphery of the imprint 11 and the periphery of the plate 21 and the depth of the imprint 11 is also adapted so that the plate 21, once positioned, is flush with the part of the bodywork 1 which is positioned on the periphery of the imprint 11.
La plaque est formée dans une matière amortissante telle que de l’éthylène propylène diène monomère (EPDM) ou du polypropylène et est soit collée, soit clippée dans l’empreinte.The plate is formed from a cushioning material such as ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) or polypropylene and is either glued or clipped into the impression.
Sur les figures 1 et 2, la carrosserie 1 du véhicule comporte un élément d’habillage qui forme un bas de caisse 12 qui présente une ligne de démarcation 13 entre le bas de caisse 12 et l’aile arrière du véhicule.In Figures 1 and 2, the bodywork 1 of the vehicle includes a trim element which forms a rocker panel 12 which has a demarcation line 13 between the rocker panel 12 and the rear wing of the vehicle.
L’empreinte 11 se prolonge le long du bas de caisse 12, au-dessus d’une partie de la ligne de démarcation 13, permettant à la plaque 21 de masque ladite partie de la ligne de démarcation 13.The imprint 11 extends along the bottom of the body 12, above a part of the demarcation line 13, allowing the plate 21 to mask said part of the demarcation line 13.
Le bas de caisse 12 comporte une partie 14 de ces moyens de fixation qui est adaptée pour être positionnée dans l’empreinte 11 et pour être recouvert par la plaque 21.The lower body 12 comprises a part 14 of these fixing means which is adapted to be positioned in the recess 11 and to be covered by the plate 21.
Une telle plaque 21 présente un montage rapide et précis permettant de limiter les retouches dues à des erreurs de positionnement.Such a plate 21 has rapid and precise assembly making it possible to limit rework due to positioning errors.
Une telle plaque 21 présente aussi une durabilité suffisante pour lui permettre de ne pas devoir être remplacée durant toute la vie du véhicule contrairement à un autocollant en film PVC transparent qui se dégrade et doit être remplacé de temps en temps.Such a plate 21 also has sufficient durability to allow it not to have to be replaced throughout the life of the vehicle, unlike a transparent PVC film sticker which degrades and must be replaced from time to time.
En particulier lorsque la plaque 21 est collée par un cordon de colle 22, elle permet de former un amortisseur acoustique contre la carrosserie 1, limitant les bruit des gravillons qui peuvent être projetés contre la plaque 21 par les roues avant.In particular when the plate 21 is glued by a bead of glue 22, it makes it possible to form an acoustic damper against the bodywork 1, limiting the noise of the gravel which can be projected against the plate 21 by the front wheels.
Elle permet aussi de masquer une partie de la ligne de démarcation 13 avec le bas de caisse 12, tout en formant un support pour un monogramme ou tout autre emblème de style.It also makes it possible to hide part of the demarcation line 13 with the lower body 12, while forming a support for a monogram or any other style emblem.
En formant un tel support pour un monogramme ou tout autre emblème de style, elle permet de personnaliser facilement une série de véhicules tout en limitant la diversité en bord de ligne finale d’assemblage du véhicule, permettant de remplacer d’autres moyens de personnalisation telles que des stickers qui sont compliqués à positionner ou des jantes spécifiques pour cette série de véhicules qui demandent une place importante en bord de ligne finale d’assemblage du véhicule.
By forming such a support for a monogram or any other style emblem, it makes it possible to easily personalize a series of vehicles while limiting diversity at the edge of the final vehicle assembly line, making it possible to replace other means of personalization such as such as stickers which are complicated to position or specific rims for this series of vehicles which require significant space at the edge of the final vehicle assembly line.
