BUTEE DE SUSPENSION ET JAMBE DE SUSPENSION POURVUE D ' STOPPER OF SUSPENSION AND SUSPENSION LEG PROVIDED WITH
UNETELLEBUTEEUNETELLEBUTEE
La présente invention se rapporte à un véhicule, notamment un véhicule automobile, comprenant un élément de structure présentant une ouverture, un amortisseur de roue, une butée de suspension solidarisée à l'extrémité supérieure de l'amortisseur, ladite butée comportant un épaulement en appui contre la surface inférieure de l'élément de structure, sur le pourtour de ladite ouverture, et une collerette s'étendant au dessus de l'épaulement pénétrant dans l'ouverture et faisant saillie au dessus de la surface supérieure de l'élément de structure, ladite collerette comportant des moyens de fixation, coopérant avec l'épaulement, pour assurer le maintien de la butée sur l'élément de structure.The present invention relates to a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, comprising a structural element having an opening, a wheel damper, a suspension stop secured to the upper end of the damper, said abutment comprising a bearing shoulder. against the lower surface of the structural element, around the periphery of said opening, and a flange extending above the shoulder penetrating the opening and protruding above the upper surface of the structural element said flange having fastening means cooperating with the shoulder to maintain the abutment on the structural member.
Dans l'état de la technique, parmi les fixations supérieures d'amortisseurs existantes, il est par exemple connu l'enseignement du document FR 2 919 909. Ce document décrit une butée de suspension solidaire de l'extrémité supérieure de la tige de l'amortisseur, comportant, dans sa partie supérieure, des lames élastiquement déformables. Lors du montage de l'amortisseur, la partie supérieure de la butée est introduite dans une ouverture spécialement ménagée dans la structure du véhicule,. L'introduction de la butée dans l'ouverture a pour effet de déformer les lames axialement ; ces lames retrouvant leur position d'origine une fois en position, assurant ainsi le maintien de l'amortisseur sur la structure du véhicule.In the state of the art, among the upper fasteners of existing dampers, it is for example known teaching the document FR 2 919 909. This document describes a suspension stop secured to the upper end of the rod of the damper, comprising, in its upper part, elastically deformable blades. When mounting the damper, the upper part of the abutment is introduced into an opening specially formed in the vehicle structure. The introduction of the abutment in the opening has the effect of deforming the blades axially; these blades returning to their original position once in position, thus ensuring the maintenance of the damper on the vehicle structure.
Une telle butée de suspension doit comporter des lames suffisamment rigides pour s'assurer du bon maintien dans le temps et suffisamment souple pour, lors du montage, que les lames puissent se plier sans risquer de se casser, imposant d'avoir des lames de grandes dimensions limitant ainsi la déformation angulaire lors du montage. Mais dans le cas de véhicules présentant un pare brise très avancé au-dessus des amortisseurs avant, la faible hauteur disponible liée à la hauteur des lames rend l'accessibilité à l'écrou, permettant la fixation supérieure de l'amortisseur sur la butée de suspension, pratiquement impossible, ce qui peut poser problème pour le remplacement des amortisseurs.Such a suspension stop must have sufficiently rigid blades to ensure good retention over time and flexible enough for, during assembly, that the blades can bend without breaking, requiring large blades. dimensions thus limiting the angular deformation during assembly. But in the case of vehicles with a very advanced windshield above the front shock absorbers, the low height available related to the height of the blades makes accessibility to the nut, allowing the upper attachment of the damper on the stop of suspension, virtually impossible, which can be a problem for the replacement of shock absorbers.
L'invention a donc pour objet un véhicule, notamment un véhicule automobile, comprenant un élément de structure présentant une ouverture, un amortisseur de roue, une butée de suspension servant de support à l'extrémité supérieure de l'amortisseur, ladite butée comportant un épaulement en appui contre la surface inférieure de l'élément de structure, en pourtour de ladite ouverture, et une collerette s'étendant au dessus de l'épaulement, pénétrant dans l'ouverture et faisant saillie au dessus de la surface supérieure de l'élément de structure, ladite collerette comportant des moyens de fixation, coopérant avec l'épaulement, pour assurer le maintien de la butée sur l'élément de structure, lesdits moyens de fixation comportent au moins un doigt de verrouillage mobile entre une première position rétractée permettant le passage de la collerette à travers l'ouverture et une seconde position déployée formant une surface d'appui supérieure sur la surface de l'élément de structure, et un organe de manœuvre adapté pour opérer le déplacement du doigt de la position rétractée vers la position déployée. L'organe de manœuvre et le doigt pouvant se déplacer suivant deux directions perpendiculaires, le déplacement suivant un axe sensiblement vertical de l'organe de manœuvre, créant un déplacement dans un plan sensiblement horizontal du doigt. La butée de suspension comporte des moyens élastiques qui forcent le doigt à rencontre de l'organe de manœuvre.The invention therefore relates to a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, comprising a structural element having an opening, a wheel damper, a suspension stopper serving as a support for the upper end of the damper, said stop comprising a shoulder bearing against the lower surface of the structural element, around said opening, and a flange extending above the shoulder, penetrating into the opening and projecting above the upper surface of the structural element, said flange comprising fastening means, cooperating with the shoulder, to maintain the abutment on the structural element, said fastening means comprise at least one locking finger movable between a first retracted position allowing passing the collar through the opening and a second extended position forming an upper bearing surface on the surface of the lement structure, and an operating member adapted to operate the movement of the finger from the retracted position to the deployed position. The operating member and the finger can move in two perpendicular directions, moving along a substantially vertical axis of the operating member, creating a displacement in a substantially horizontal plane of the finger. The suspension abutment comprises elastic means that force the finger against the operating member.

A bearing 34, positioned in the lower part of the stop 3, serving as a support for the spring 6, is connected to the silent block 31 by a ball bearing 7.
Le silentbloc 31 est constitué d'une première coupelle métallique 31 a, servant de support au roulement à billes 7, et d'une seconde coupelle métallique 31 b, formant l'épaulement 32. Entre ces deux coupelles est interposé un matériau élastique souple 31c tel que du caoutchouc. Le silentbloc 31 est traversé en son centre par une ouverture permettant le passage de la fixation supérieure 12 de l'amortisseur 1 , la tige 11 venant en appui contre la première coupelle 31 a. La seconde coupelle 31 b est prolongée vers le haut par un plus petit silentbloc 36 entourant la fixation supérieure 12 et servant d'appui à l'écrou 13. L'amortisseur ainsi fixé entre les deux silentblocs 31 c et 36 à la butée de suspension 3, isole la caisse 2 du véhicule des vibrations provenant de la roue et transmises par l'amortisseur 1. Il en va de même du ressort 6 fixé sur le palier 34 qui est lié à la caisse 2 du véhicule par l'intermédiaire du silentbloc 31 c.The silentblock 31 consists of a first metal cup 31a, serving to support the ball bearing 7, and a second metal cup 31b, forming the shoulder 32. Between these two cups is interposed a flexible elastic material 31c such as rubber. The silent block 31 is traversed at its center by an opening allowing the passage of the upper attachment 12 of the damper 1, the rod 11 bearing against the first cup 31 a. The second cup 31b is extended upwards by a smaller silentblock 36 surrounding the upper attachment 12 and serving as support for the nut 13. The damper thus fixed between the two silentblocs 31c and 36 to the suspension stopper 3, isolates the body 2 of the vehicle vibrations from the wheel and transmitted by the damper 1. It is the same spring 6 attached to the bearing 34 which is connected to the body 2 of the vehicle via the silentbloc 31 c.
La collerette 33 se présente sous une forme cylindrique avec une paroi extérieure 33a dont le diamètre extérieur est adapté pour traverser l'ouverture 21 et une paroi intérieure 33b dont le diamètre intérieur permet l'introduction d'un outil permettant le montage et le démontage de l'écrou 13. Entre ces deux parois est laissé vide un espacement permettant l'introduction d'un organe de manœuvre cylindrique 8. Des doigts de verrouillage 9, positionnés à la base de la collerette 33, peuvent s'étendre radialement à travers des ouvertures pratiquées à la base de la paroi extérieure 33a sous l'action de l'organe de manœuvre 8 ; l'organe de manœuvre 8 et les doigts 9 présentent, respectivement, une extrémité biseautée 82 et 91 , ces extrémités biseautées étant en regard l'une de l'autre et coopérant pour forcer le déplacement en position déployée des doigts 9 lorsque l'organe de manœuvre 8 est déplacé vers le bas, verrouillant la butée 3 sur la structure 2. Des gorges 92 ménagées sur la surface inférieure des doigts 9 permettent de loger un ressort annulaire 93 agissant comme un ressort de rappel maintenant les doigts 9 rangés dans la collerette 33 en l'absence de contrainte de la part de l'organe de manœuvre 8.The flange 33 is in a cylindrical shape with an outer wall 33a whose outer diameter is adapted to pass through the opening 21 and an inner wall 33b whose inner diameter allows the introduction of a tool for mounting and dismantling of the nut 13. Between these two walls is left empty a spacing allowing the introduction of a cylindrical actuating member 8. The locking fingers 9, positioned at the base of the collar 33, can extend radially through openings made at the base of the outer wall 33a under the action of the operating member 8; the operating member 8 and the fingers 9 have, respectively, a beveled end 82 and 91, these beveled ends being opposite one of the other and cooperating to force the displacement in the deployed position of the fingers 9 when the operating member 8 is moved downwards, locking the stopper 3 on the structure 2. grooves 92 formed on the lower surface of the fingers 9 allow to accommodating an annular spring 93 acting as a return spring holding the fingers 9 arranged in the collar 33 in the absence of stress on the part of the operating member 8.
L'organe de manœuvre 8 présente deux positions stables, une première position, dite position haute, n'agissant pas sur les doigts 9, permettant la mise en position de l'ensemble butée 3 et amortisseur 1 sur la structure 2 et, une seconde position, dite position basse, déplaçant les doigts 9 en position déployée, verrouillant la butée 3 en position dans l'ouverture 21 de la structure 2. Ces deux positions sont maintenues grâce à un clip circulaire 81 positionné sur la surface latérale extérieure de l'organe de manœuvre 8, pénétrant alternativement dans une gorge circulaire supérieure 35a et dans une gorge circulaire inférieure 35b. La gorge supérieure 35a, pratiquée sur la surface intérieure de la paroi extérieure 33a, à proximité de l'extrémité supérieure de cette paroi 33a, positionne l'organe de manœuvre 8 dans sa position haute, laissant les doigts 9 en position rétractée. La gorge inférieure 35b, positionnée au dessous de la gorge supérieure 35a, immobilise l'organe de manœuvre 8 dans sa position basse, déplaçant les doigts 9 en position déployée. Le profil en forme de sapin du clip 81 et des gorges 35a et 35b ne permettent pas à l'organe de manœuvre 8 de repasser de la position basse vers la position haute, évitant ainsi la désolidarisation accidentelle de la butée 3 sur la structure 2. Le démontage de l'amortisseur 1 pour un éventuel remplacement se faisant par l'écrou 13. En cas de nécessité de démontage de la butée 3, pour une question de sécurité, les doigts 9 devront être cassés, imposant le montage d'une butée 3 neuve.The operating member 8 has two stable positions, a first position, said high position, not acting on the fingers 9, allowing the positioning of the stop assembly 3 and damper 1 on the structure 2 and, a second position, said low position, moving the fingers 9 in the deployed position, locking the stopper 3 in position in the opening 21 of the structure 2. These two positions are maintained by means of a circular clip 81 positioned on the outer lateral surface of the operating member 8, penetrating alternately in an upper circular groove 35a and in a lower circular groove 35b. The upper groove 35a, formed on the inner surface of the outer wall 33a, near the upper end of this wall 33a, positions the operating member 8 in its upper position, leaving the fingers 9 in the retracted position. The lower groove 35b, positioned below the upper groove 35a, immobilizes the operating member 8 in its lower position, moving the fingers 9 in the deployed position. The fir-shaped profile of the clip 81 and the grooves 35a and 35b do not allow the operating member 8 to go back from the low position to the high position, thus avoiding the accidental disconnection of the abutment 3 on the structure 2. The disassembly of the damper 1 for a possible replacement is done by the nut 13. In case of necessity of disassembly of the stop 3, for a security question, the fingers 9 must be broken, imposing the mounting of a stop 3 new.
Lors du montage de la butée 3 sur la structure, l'ensemble des éléments de suspension du véhicule sont positionnés sur une platine. La structure du véhicule 2 vient alors coiffer cette platine positionnant les éléments de suspension sur la structure 2 du véhicule. L'opérateur, au moyen d'un outil adapté, vient exercer une pression sur l'organe de manœuvre 8, le déplaçant en position basse, ce qui provoque le déploiement des doigts 9. La surface extérieure latérale de l'organe de manœuvre 8, faisant saillit dans sa position haute, peut être peinte dans une couleur vive, attirant le regard en cas d'oubli de verrouillage sur la structure 2 du véhicule. Pour faciliter le positionnement des butées de suspension 3 dans les ouvertures 21 de la structure 2, des capuchons en forme de cônes peuvent venir coiffer les collerettes 33. Ces capuchons sont, soit positionnés en bordure de chaîne de production, soit mis en position par le fournisseur qui livre les amortisseurs 1 déjà équipés des butées de suspension 3. Avant le verrouillage, l'opérateur retire ces capuchons qui seront recyclés sur de nouveaux ensembles amortisseurs 1 et butées de suspension 3.When mounting the stopper 3 on the structure, all the suspension elements of the vehicle are positioned on a plate. The structure of the vehicle 2 then cap this plate positioning the suspension elements on the structure 2 of the vehicle. The operator, at by means of a suitable tool, comes to exert pressure on the operating member 8, moving it in the low position, which causes the deployment of the fingers 9. The outer lateral surface of the operating member 8, projecting in its high position, can be painted in a bright color, drawing the eye in case of forgetting lock on the structure 2 of the vehicle. To facilitate the positioning of the suspension stops 3 in the openings 21 of the structure 2, cone-shaped caps can cap the flanges 33. These caps are either positioned at the edge of the production line, or placed in position by the supplier who delivers the dampers 1 already equipped with suspension stops 3. Before locking, the operator removes these caps which will be recycled on new damping assemblies 1 and suspension stops 3.
Un autre mode de réalisation consiste à utiliser les capuchons coniques à la fois pour faciliter le montage des collerettes 33 dans les ouvertures 21 de la structure 2 et comme organe de manœuvre, maintenant les doigts 9 en position rétractée. Contrairement au premier mode de réalisation, le ressort 92 pousse les doigts 9 en position déployée ; le retrait des capuchons libérant les doigts 9, ce qui provoque le verrouillage automatique des butées de suspension 3 sur la structure du véhicule 2. Enfin, au niveau de l'épaulement 32, des picots faisant saillie de la surface de contact avec la structure 2 du véhicule, peuvent venir pénétrer dans des ouvertures correspondantes ménagées dans la structure 2 pour former des moyens de détrompage, et ainsi permettre d'orienter le positionnement de la butée de suspension dans l'ouverture 21 de la structure 2.Another embodiment consists of using the conical caps both to facilitate the mounting of the flanges 33 in the openings 21 of the structure 2 and as an operating member, keeping the fingers 9 in the retracted position. Unlike the first embodiment, the spring 92 pushes the fingers 9 in the deployed position; removing the caps releasing the fingers 9, which causes the automatic locking of the suspension stops 3 on the vehicle structure 2. Finally, at the shoulder 32, pins protruding from the contact surface with the structure 2 of the vehicle, can penetrate into corresponding openings in the structure 2 to form keying means, and thus allow to guide the positioning of the suspension stop in the opening 21 of the structure 2.
Il est bien évident que les modes de réalisation qui précédent ont été donnés à titre d'exemples non limitatifs et que de nombreuses variantes peuvent être envisagées sans sortir pour autant du cadre de l'invention. It is obvious that the preceding embodiments have been given by way of non-limiting examples and that many variants can be envisaged without departing from the scope of the invention.
