Definitions

• the present invention relates to an improvement made to devices allowing the transport of long loads in commercial motor vehicles, of the type comprising a rear door with one or two leaves, said rear door comprising at least one opening at its upper part at through which the long load to be transported passes.
• At least one leaf of a rear door of a utility vehicle, minivan type is provided with an opening closed by a flap articulated on the rest of the leaf. There remains on each side of the shutter a dormant frame of the leaf.
• the single zone of passage of the load is the opening itself, which is delimited laterally by the frame of the leaf.
• the object of the present invention is to remedy these drawbacks mentioned above of the devices of the prior art.
• an improvement is proposed to devices allowing the transport of ionic charges in commercial motor vehicles, of the type comprising a rear door with one or two leaves, said rear door comprising at least one opening in the calf of its upper part through which the long load to be transported passes, characterized in that the opening made on the leaf (s) is open laterally on its edge of the
• provision will also be made for the vehicle to have internally a horizontal bar which can be arranged and blocked at different heights, on which the load to be transported comes to bear.
• FIG. 1A is a cross-sectional view of a rear door of a vehicle equipped with a device according to the invention, closed shutter;
• FIG. 1B is a cross-sectional view of a rear door of a vehicle equipped with a device according to the invention, open shutter;
• FIG. 2 is a partial rear perspective view of a rear door leaf of a vehicle equipped with a device according to
• FIG. 3 is a plan view, with partial side views of the side uprights, the horizontal bar and its attachment points on said uprights.
• a vehicle generally referenced (1), of the utility vehicle type comprises on the rear a door (2) composed of at least one leaf (3). Usually, this leaf has joints
• the upper part of the leaf is provided
• the flap (8) releases an opening (10) open at least towards the side of the leaf opposite the joints (4, 5).
• a load can be inserted by keeping it in the vehicle at the opening of the leaf, which can be closed quite simply without obstacles.
• a horizontal bar (11) is preferably provided inside the vehicle, more particularly visible in FIG. 3.
• the bar is supported on lateral uprights (12,13) fixed internally on the side walls of the utility vehicle.
• the bar is maintained for example on one side by pins (14) and on the other side by oblique grooves (15) into which the other end of the bar is inserted and where it is held by gravity . It would be possible to provide grooves on each upright or any other means making it possible to block a bar in a horizontal position, in a reliable manner.
• the necessary adaptation of vehicles is simple. It can be carried out as standard or on demand.
• the horizontal bar may be in the form of a bar portion bearing on only one side wall of the vehicle, the bar comprising a strut which also maintains against said wall.
• the bar-strut assembly will constitute a bracket which can be articulated on the corresponding wall and therefore retracted against it when not in use.
