Definitions
- the invention relates to a control handle for the opening of a lock of a motor vehicle opening.
- the invention relates more particularly to a handle belonging to a device for controlling the opening of a lock of a motor vehicle opening, of the type comprising an operating pallet (or lever) which is mounted articulated relative to the opening, around a fixed axis, between a rest position, to which it is recalled elastically, and an open position of the lock which it is connected by a linkage, of the type in which a handle is associated to an electrical switch on which acts a manual command.
- Such an identification module can include a fixed receiver such as an antenna carried by the vehicle which exchange signals with a transmitter worn by the user authorized, which is for example a passive transponder, i.e. without autonomous current source, which in response to a excitation signal from the antenna, automatically emits a identification signal including a code Identification.
- a fixed receiver such as an antenna carried by the vehicle which exchange signals with a transmitter worn by the user authorized, which is for example a passive transponder, i.e. without autonomous current source, which in response to a excitation signal from the antenna, automatically emits a identification signal including a code Identification.
- the function of the electronic central unit is to recognize the code received and, if it matches the code of an authorized user, to cause unlocking centralized different locks equipping the different opening of the vehicle.
- the locks having been unlocked, the user can then then freely open one or the other opening by acting conventionally on the handle operation of the corresponding lock which also allows it more generally to operate the opening after opening the lock.
- the transmitter constituted by the transponder is a passive transmitter activated automatically by the antenna, this one is worn by the user, for example on his wrist or in a clothing accessory, and the effective exchange distance of radio signals between the antenna and the transponder is reduced to a few tens of centimeters. It is not: therefore that when for example the user's hand approaches the antenna carried by the vehicle as the identification module will be able to be implemented.
- the receiver does not of course transmit continuously and the user must activate it by voluntary action, for example mechanical in nature acting on a switch.
- the switch associated with the handle is actuated by a push button arranged at near the pallet.
- the object of the invention is to propose a new design of a handle of the type mentioned above which meets the requirements for ergonomics and speed actuation of the switch.
- the invention proposes a palette handle, characterized in that the maneuvering pallet has an internal area of grip which allows a user to maneuver the pallet in traction towards its open position and the manual control member is a movable flap relative to the operating pallet, arranged in look at the grip area of the maneuvering pallet and on which the user exerts a control effort prior to the pulling operation of the pallet maneuver.
- Such a design of the handle allows a particularly ergonomic operation of the latter because the motorist who wishes to open a vehicle door proceeds in the same pulling motion, first at unlocking the lock mechanism associated with the handle in bringing the pallet from its rest position to its position then, without changing movement, it causes opening the door by pulling it towards him.
- the door handle is generally produced, i.e. in relief from the exterior surface of the panel bodywork, for example in the form of a handle, or so as to be almost flush with the surface outside of the panel, and it is then provided with a cavity open to the outside to allow the user to slide his hand behind the pallet to grab the surface internal gripping constituting the gripping area of the palette.
- FIG. 1 a door 20 of motor vehicle which is equipped with a handle 22 intended for the operation of the door as well as the mechanical control of the opening of a lock 24 which is illustrated schematically dotted in Figure 1.
- the operating handle 22 is of the type in the form of pallet or lever and it is hinged mounted relative to the door 20, around a geometric axis of articulation A1, between an extreme rest position in which she is illustrated in Figures 1, 2 and 4 and an extreme position opening the lock 24 in which it is in particular illustrated in figure 3.
- the body of the pallet 22 constituting the handle has a central opening 26 facilitating its gripping by a user's hand 28.
- the unit 34 comprises a module 36 for identifying a authorized user and a unit 38 for locking and central unlocking of the different locks.
- An antenna 40 is integrated into the operating pallet 22.
- the antenna 40 is connected to the identification module 36 in association with a switch 42.
- the switch 42 is in the neutral position, here open, when the handle 22 is in its extreme rest position and it is in the active position, here closed, when the handle maneuver 22 leaves its extreme rest position to be manipulated to its extreme open position.
- the antenna 40 is activated by the module 36 and is likely to exchange radio signals with a transmitter 44 which is a passive transponder which is for example worn on the wrist of the hand 28 of a user authorized to access the vehicle.
- the transponder 44 comprises, in a known manner, a circuit which, when activated by antenna 40, is likely to exchange signals with the latter and in particular to transmit towards the antenna 40, and therefore in direction of the identification module 36, a signal comprising a user identification code.
- the module 36 then verifies that the signal received by antenna 40 contains a valid code and it is then likely to issue orders, by line 46, to the unit central locking 38.
- the device for controlling the opening of the door 20 also includes a button 50 for controlling the locking of the associated lock 24 or for the simultaneous control of the central locking of all the locks fitted to the vehicle.
- Button 50 is a manually operated button which acts schematically on a switch 52 which is normally in the open position and which when the user press it as illustrated in figure 4, is closed to transmit orders to the centralized control unit of the locking of locks through the identification module 36.
- This closure has the effect of activating the antenna 40 by through the identification module 36 which recognizes the code carried by transponder 44 and which, if the code is valid, causes the various locks to be condemned.
- the operating handle 22 and the mechanical control of the opening of a lock 24 are carried out in accordance with the teachings of the invention including two embodiments are illustrated in FIGS. 5 and following.
- the handle comprises a housing or base 54 which is a piece in the general shape of a frame, with a rear bottom 56, which is fixedly mounted in a housing 58 constituted by a cut of complementary shape formed in sheet 20 of the opening equipped with the handle.
- the box 54 in the form of a frame is delimited by a peripheral wall 60 whose edge 62 is extended by a plate outer casing 64 which supports the fixed stator of a lock 66 of classic design.
- the horizontal upper plate 68 of the frame 60 has two vertical legs 70 which extend above the frame 60 and each of which has a hole 72 for mounting a rod 74 constituting the axis of articulation, axis geometric A1, from palette 22.
- Pallet 22 essentially consists of a gripping plate 76 and by a frame 78 whose rear is closed by a curved bottom 80.
- Pallet 22 thus comprises a body in general shape bucket whose profile and dimensions are complementary those of the housing 54 in which the pallet 22 is received when it is in its rest position illustrated in the figures 5 to 8.
- the frame 78 of the pallet 22 is delimited by an edge before 82 which, in the rest position, extends substantially in flush with the front cover plate 64 of the fixed housing 54.
- the bucket-shaped pallet 22 is sized to so that the user's hand 28 can be inserted into it with the latter's fingers which pass behind the plate 76 gripping, which is for example carried out integrally by plastic molding with the body 78 of the pallet 22.
- the inner side of the user's phalanges, when his hand is inside the pallet 22, is opposite the inner face 84 of the gripping plate 76 but, in accordance to the teachings of the invention, with the interposition of a component 86 of switch 42.
- the gripping plate 76 closes partially the internal cavity of the housing 54 and its edge lower 88 delimits vertically downwards the opening of pallet 22 allowing the introduction of the hand of the user.
- the pallet 22 is mounted articulated around the axis A1, on rod 74.
- the upper plate 90 of the frame 78 of the pallet 22 has two vertical legs 92 which are parallel to the legs 70 of the housing 54 and which each comprise a hole 94 for the rotational passage of the rod 74.
- Pallet 22 is resiliently biased towards its rest position which is illustrated in particular in FIG. 7, in which the upper part of the gripping plate 76 is pressed against the sheet 20, by means of two springs 96 mounted on rod 74.
- the springs are supported on a cross member 98 in form of vertical plate which is fixed in slots 100 legs 92 for articulation of the pallet 22.
- Traverse 98 extends at one of its ends by an element 30 belonging to the linkage which connects the pallet 22 to lock 24.
- the organ manual control switch 42 is a flap 86 arranged at inside the pallet 22 and which is produced in the form a control panel.
- Part 86 consists essentially of a vertical orientation plate 102 which is arranged inside of the pallet 22 opposite the internal face 84 of the plate grip 76 in the vicinity of the latter.
- the plate 102 constituting the flap 86 is delimited by a lower edge 104 which is parallel and adjacent to the edge lower 88 of the gripping plate 76 of the pallet 22.
- the flap 86 is pivotally mounted relative to the pallet 22.
- this relative pivoting mounting of the shutter 86 by the pallet 22 is produced by the pivoting mounting of the flap 86 on the rod 74, that is to say around the axis A1.
- the flap 86 has an upper plate horizontal 106 from which extend vertically two hinge legs 108 each of which has a hole 110 intended to be crossed by the rod 74.
- the springs 96 are springs of reminder common to pallet 22 and flap 86, that is to say they resiliently recall the latter to its position neutral illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 9 in which the legs 108 are in abutment against the rear edges 112 windows 114 formed in the upper plate 90 of the frame 78 of pallet 22 for the passage of the articulation legs 108, the latter crossing, with the legs 92 of articulation pallet 22, windows 116 formed in the plate upper 68 of the frame 60 of the housing 54.
- Button 50 for manual locking control locks is a button which is pivotally mounted here in the housing pivoting about a vertical axis 120 of the housing 54.
- the button 50 is accessible through the opening of the pallet 22 and it acts on the switch 52 carried by the bottom 56 of the housing 54 through a window 122 formed in the bottom curved 80 of pallet 22.
- the internal face of its knuckles is located opposite plate 102 of shutter 86, the edges lower 88 and 104 of the gripping plate 76 and the flap 86 being substantially in the palm of his hand.
- the flap 86 is slidably mounted relative to the pallet 22 in a sliding direction C which is parallel to the plane general of the gripping plate 76 and perpendicular to the axis A1 of articulation of the pallet 22.
- the flap 86 is resiliently returned to its position rest by specific springs 130 interposed between the pallet 22 and flap 86, for example on a rod 132 of sliding guide of the flap 86, the upper end of which free is capable of acting on a triggering member 134 of the switch 42, the latter being carried by a portion in opposite the housing 54.
- the natural movement by pulling the pallet 22 by hand 28 of the user results in a primary action from the palm of the hand on the lower edge 104 of the flap 86, that is to say at a actuation of the switch 42 at the start of the movement of pivoting of the pallet 22.

Description
L'invention concerne une poignée de commande de l'ouverture d'une serrure d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile.The invention relates to a control handle for the opening of a lock of a motor vehicle opening.
L'invention concerne plus particulièrement une poignée appartenant à un dispositif de commande de l'ouverture d'une serrure d'un ouvrant de véhicule automobile, du type comportant une palette (ou levier) de manoeuvre qui est montée articulée par rapport à l'ouvrant, autour d'un axe fixe, entre une position de repos , vers laquelle elle est rappelée élastiquement, et une position d'ouverture de la serrure à laquelle elle est reliée par une tringlerie, du type dans laquelle une poignée est associée à un commutateur électrique sur lequel agit un organe de commande manuelle.The invention relates more particularly to a handle belonging to a device for controlling the opening of a lock of a motor vehicle opening, of the type comprising an operating pallet (or lever) which is mounted articulated relative to the opening, around a fixed axis, between a rest position, to which it is recalled elastically, and an open position of the lock which it is connected by a linkage, of the type in which a handle is associated to an electrical switch on which acts a manual command.
Une telle poignée est décrite dans le document de l'état de la technique EP 0 430 732A1.Such a handle is described in the document of the state of the art EP 0 430 732A1.
C'est notamment le cas pour un véhicule comportant une unité centrale électronique de gestion des ordres de verrouillage et de décondamnation des serrures des ouvrants du véhicule qui reçoit des ordres de verrouillage ou de décondamnation à partir d'un module d'identification d'un utilisateur autorisé du véhicule.This is particularly the case for a vehicle comprising a central electronic order management unit locking and unlocking the locks of the opening vehicle receiving lock orders or unlocking from an identification module of a authorized vehicle user.
Un tel module d'identification peut comporter un récepteur fixe tel qu'une antenne portée par le véhicule qui échange des signaux avec un émetteur porté par l'utilisateur autorisé, qui est par exemple un transpondeur passif, c'est-à-dire sans source autonome de courant, qui, en réponse à un signal d'excitation émis par l'antenne, émet automatiquement un signal d'identification comportant notamment un code d'identification.Such an identification module can include a fixed receiver such as an antenna carried by the vehicle which exchange signals with a transmitter worn by the user authorized, which is for example a passive transponder, i.e. without autonomous current source, which in response to a excitation signal from the antenna, automatically emits a identification signal including a code Identification.
L'unité centrale électronique a pour fonction de reconnaítre le code reçu et, si ce dernier correspond au code d'un utilisateur autorisé, de provoquer la décondamnation centralisée des différentes serrures équipant les différents ouvrants du véhicule.The function of the electronic central unit is to recognize the code received and, if it matches the code of an authorized user, to cause unlocking centralized different locks equipping the different opening of the vehicle.
Les serrures ayant été décondamnées, l'utilisateur peut alors ensuite provoquer librement l'ouverture de l'un ou l'autre des ouvrants en agissant classiquement sur la poignée de manoeuvre de la serrure correspondante qui lui permet aussi plus généralement de manoeuvrer l'ouvrant après l'ouverture de la serrure.The locks having been unlocked, the user can then then freely open one or the other opening by acting conventionally on the handle operation of the corresponding lock which also allows it more generally to operate the opening after opening the lock.
Lorsque l'émetteur constitué par le transpondeur est un émetteur passif activé automatiquement par l'antenne, celui-ci est porté par l'utilisateur, par exemple à son poignet ou dans un accessoire vestimentaire, et la distance efficace d'échange de signaux radioélectriques entre l'antenne et le transpondeur est réduite à quelques dizaines de centimètres. Ce n'est: donc que lorsque par exemple la main de l'utilisateur approche de l'antenne portée par le véhicule que le module d'identification va pouvoir être mis en oeuvre.When the transmitter constituted by the transponder is a passive transmitter activated automatically by the antenna, this one is worn by the user, for example on his wrist or in a clothing accessory, and the effective exchange distance of radio signals between the antenna and the transponder is reduced to a few tens of centimeters. It is not: therefore that when for example the user's hand approaches the antenna carried by the vehicle as the identification module will be able to be implemented.
Le récepteur n'émet bien entendu pas en permanence et il est nécessaire que l'utilisateur provoque son activation par une action volontaire, par exemple de nature mécanique en agissant sur un commutateur.The receiver does not of course transmit continuously and the user must activate it by voluntary action, for example mechanical in nature acting on a switch.
L'ergonomie optimale d'un tel dispositif d'ouverture impose, pour simplifier les différentes opérations, que le récepteur soit activé lorsque l'utilisateur agit sur la poignée de manoeuvre qui va ensuite lui servir à provoquer l'ouverture de la serrure et à manipuler l'ouvrant. The optimal ergonomics of such an opening device requires, to simplify the various operations, that the receiver is activated when the user acts on the handle maneuver which will then be used to cause the opening of the lock and handling the door.
Selon une conception connue, le commutateur associé à la poignée est actionné par un bouton poussoir disposé à proximité de la palette.According to a known design, the switch associated with the handle is actuated by a push button arranged at near the pallet.
On comprend aisément qu'un tel agencement de l'organe de commande manuelle du commutateur ne répond pas aux exigences d'ergonomie mentionnées précédemment.It is easy to understand that such an arrangement of the organ switch control manual does not meet requirements ergonomics mentioned above.
L'invention a pour but de proposer une nouvelle conception d'une poignée du type mentionné précédemment qui satisfasse aux exigences d'ergonomie et de rapidité d'actionnement du commutateur.The object of the invention is to propose a new design of a handle of the type mentioned above which meets the requirements for ergonomics and speed actuation of the switch.
Dans ce but, l'invention propose une poignée à palette, caractérisée en ce que la palette de manoeuvre comporte une zone interne de préhension qui permet à un utilisateur de manoeuvrer la palette en traction vers sa position d'ouverture et l'organe de commande manuelle est un volet mobile par rapport à la palette de manoeuvre, agencé en regard de la zone de préhension de la palette de manoeuvre et sur lequel l'utilisateur exerce un effort de commande préalablement à la manoeuvre en traction de la palette de manoeuvre.To this end, the invention proposes a palette handle, characterized in that the maneuvering pallet has an internal area of grip which allows a user to maneuver the pallet in traction towards its open position and the manual control member is a movable flap relative to the operating pallet, arranged in look at the grip area of the maneuvering pallet and on which the user exerts a control effort prior to the pulling operation of the pallet maneuver.
Une telle conception de la poignée permet un fonctionnement particulièrement ergonomique de celle-ci car l'automobiliste qui désire ouvrir une porte du véhicule procède dans le même mouvement de traction, tout d'abord au déverrouillage du mécanisme de serrure associé à la poignée en amenant la palette de sa position de repos à sa position d'ouverture puis, sans changer de mouvement, il provoque l'ouverture de la porte en tirant celle-ci vers lui.Such a design of the handle allows a particularly ergonomic operation of the latter because the motorist who wishes to open a vehicle door proceeds in the same pulling motion, first at unlocking the lock mechanism associated with the handle in bringing the pallet from its rest position to its position then, without changing movement, it causes opening the door by pulling it towards him.
Pour que l'utilisateur ait accès à la zone de préhension, la poignée de porte est généralement réalisée, soit en relief par rapport à la surface extérieure du panneau de carrosserie, par exemple sous la forme d'une anse, soit de manière à affleurer sensiblement au niveau de la surface extérieure du panneau, et celui-ci est alors muni d'une cavité ouverte vers l'extérieur pour permettre à l'utilisateur de glisser sa main derrière la palette, afin de saisir la surface interne de préhension constituant la zone de préhension de la palette.For the user to have access to the gripping, the door handle is generally produced, i.e. in relief from the exterior surface of the panel bodywork, for example in the form of a handle, or so as to be almost flush with the surface outside of the panel, and it is then provided with a cavity open to the outside to allow the user to slide his hand behind the pallet to grab the surface internal gripping constituting the gripping area of the palette.

On a représenté sur la figure 1 une porte 20 de
véhicule automobile qui est équipée d'une poignée 22 destinée à
la manoeuvre de la porte ainsi qu'à la commande mécanique de
l'ouverture d'une serrure 24 qui est illustrée schématiquement
en pointillé à la figure 1.There is shown in Figure 1 a
La poignée de manoeuvre 22 est du type en forme de
palette ou de levier et elle est montée articulée par rapport à
la porte 20, autour d'un axe géométrique d'articulation A1,
entre une position extrême de repos dans laquelle elle est
illustrée aux figures 1, 2 et 4 et une position extrême
d'ouverture de la serrure 24 dans laquelle elle est notamment
illustrée à la figure 3. The operating
Le corps de la palette 22 constituant la poignée
comporte une ouverture centrale 26 facilitant sa préhension par
la main 28 d'un utilisateur.The body of the
On a représenté schématiquement sur la figure 1 la
liaison mécanique 30 qui relie, d'une manière qui sera expliquée
en détail par la suite, la poignée de manoeuvre 22 à la serrure
24.Schematically shown in Figure 1 the
On a également représenté par une ligne en pointillés
32 la liaison entre le mécanisme de serrure 24 et une unité
centrale électronique 34 de commande du verrouillage et de la
décondamnation des différentes serrures équipant le véhicule.We also represented by a dotted
L'unité 34 comporte un module 36 d'identification d'un
utilisateur autorisé et une unité 38 de verrouillage et de
décondamnation centralisée des différentes serrures.The
Une antenne 40, de conception générale connue, est
intégrée à la palette de manoeuvre 22. L'antenne 40 est reliée
au module d'identification 36 en association avec un commutateur
42.An
Le commutateur 42 est en position neutre, ici ouvert,
lorsque la poignée 22 est dans sa position extrême de repos et
il est en position active, ici fermé, lorsque la poignée de
manoeuvre 22 quitte sa position extrême de repos pour être
manipulée vers sa position extrême d'ouverture.The
Lorsque le commutateur 42 est fermé, et comme on peut
le voir à la figure 3, l'antenne 40 est activée par le module
d'identification 36 et elle est susceptible d'échanger des
signaux radioélectriques avec un émetteur 44 qui est un
transpondeur passif qui est par exemple porté au poignet de la
main 28 d'un utilisateur autorisé à accéder au véhicule.When the
Le transpondeur 44 comporte, d'une manière connue, un
circuit qui, lorsqu'il est activé par l'antenne 40, est
susceptible d'échanger avec cette dernière des signaux et
notamment d'émettre en direction de l'antenne 40, et donc en
direction du module d'identification 36, un signal comportant un
code d'identification de l'utilisateur.The
Le module 36 vérifie alors que le signal reçu par
l'antenne 40 contient un code valable et il est ensuite
susceptible de délivrer des ordres, par la ligne 46, à l'unité
de verrouillage centralisé 38. The
Le dispositif de commande de l'ouverture de la porte 20
comporte aussi un bouton 50 pour la commande du verrouillage de
la serrure associée 24 ou pour la commande simultanée du
verrouillage centralisé de l'ensemble des serrures équipant le
véhicule.The device for controlling the opening of the
Le bouton 50 est un bouton à actionnement manuel qui
agit, de manière schématique, sur un commutateur 52 qui est
normalement en position ouverte et qui, lorsque l'utilisateur
appuie dessus comme cela est illustré à la figure 4, est fermé
pour transmettre des ordres à l'unité de commande centralisée du
verrouillage des serrures à travers le module d'identification
36.
Le principe de fonctionnement du système illustré aux figures 1 à 4 est le suivant.The operating principle of the system illustrated in Figures 1 to 4 is as follows.
En partant de la position verrouillée ou condamnée des
serrures 24 illustrée à la figure 2, un utilisateur autorisé
approche sa main 28 portant le transpondeur 44 de la porte 20 et
il manoeuvre en traction la palette 22 en pivotement autour de
son axe d'articulation A1 dans le sens horaire en considérant
les figures.Starting from the locked or locked position of the
Dès qu'il commence à agir sur la poignée 22, il
provoque la fermeture du commutateur 42 et l'activation de
l'antenne 40 aboutissant ainsi à la reconnaissance du code
valable porté par son transpondeur 44 et à la mise en oeuvre de
l'unité de déverrouillage centralisée 38 qui transmet ses ordres
aux serrures 24.As soon as it begins to act on the
En poursuivant son mouvement de pivotement sur la
poignée de manoeuvre 22, l'utilisateur souhaite provoquer
ensuite la commande de l'ouverture mécanique de la serrure 24,
préalablement décondamnée, à travers la liaison mécanique 30.By continuing its pivoting movement on the
Une fois cette ouverture accomplie, l'utilisateur relâche la poignée de manoeuvre 22 qui est rappelée élastiquement vers sa position extrême de repos.Once this opening is completed, the user releases the operating handle 22 which is returned elastically to its extreme rest position.
Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite verrouiller à nouveau au
moins une serrure du véhicule, ou simultanément toutes les
serrures si le véhicule est équipé d'un système de condamnation
centralisée, il approche à nouveau sa main 28 de la poignée 22,
comme cela est illustré à la figure 4. When the user wants to lock again on
minus a vehicle lock, or simultaneously every
locks if the vehicle is fitted with a locking system
centralized, he again approaches his
Il appuie alors sur le bouton 50, sans manipuler la
poignée 22, pour provoquer la fermeture du commutateur 52He then presses the
Cette fermeture a pour effet d'activer l'antenne 40 par
l'intermédiaire du module d'identification 36 qui reconnaít le
code porté par le transpondeur 44 et qui, si le code est
valable, provoque la condamnation des différentes serrures.This closure has the effect of activating the
Afin de conférer une ergonomie optimale à un dispositif
de commande d'un tel type, la poignée de manoeuvre 22 et la
commande mécanique de l'ouverture d'une serrure 24 sont
réalisées conformément aux enseignements de l'invention dont
deux modes de réalisation sont illustrés aux figures 5 et
suivantes.In order to give optimal ergonomics to a device
such control, the operating
Dans le mode de réalisation de l'invention illustré aux
figures 5 à 9, la poignée comporte un boítier ou embase 54 qui
est une pièce en forme générale de cadre, avec un fond arrière
56, qui est monté fixe dans un logement 58 constitué par une
découpe de forme complémentaire formée dans la tôle 20 de
l'ouvrant équipé de la poignée.In the embodiment of the invention illustrated in
Figures 5 to 9, the handle comprises a housing or
Le boítier 54 en forme de cadre est délimité par une
paroi périphérique 60 dont le bord 62 se prolonge par une plaque
externe 64 d'habillage qui sert de support au stator fixe d'un
verrou 66 de conception classique.The
La plaque supérieure horizontale 68 du cadre 60
comporte deux pattes verticales 70 qui s'étendent au-dessus du
cadre 60 et dont chacune comporte un trou 72 pour le montage
d'une tige 74 constituant l'axe d'articulation, d'axe
géométrique A1, de la palette 22.The horizontal
La palette 22 est constituée pour l'essentiel par une
plaque de préhension 76 et par un cadre 78 dont l'arrière est
fermé par un fond incurvé 80.
La palette 22 comporte ainsi un corps en forme générale
de godet dont le profil et les dimensions sont complémentaires
de ceux du boítier 54 dans lequel la palette 22 est reçue
lorsqu'elle est dans sa position de repos illustrée aux figures
5 à 8.
Le cadre 78 de la palette 22 est délimité par un bord
avant 82 qui, en position de repos, s'étend sensiblement en
affleurement de la plaque avant d'habillage 64 du boítier fixe
54. The
La palette 22 en forme de godet est dimensionnée de
manière que la main 28 de l'utilisateur puisse y être introduite
avec les doigts de ce dernier qui passent derrière la plaque 76
de préhension, qui est par exemple réalisée venue de matière par
moulage en matière plastique avec le corps 78 de la palette 22.The bucket-shaped
La face interne des phalanges de l'utilisateur, lorsque
sa main est à l'intérieur de la palette 22, est en regard de la
face interne 84 de la plaque de préhension 76 mais, conformément
aux enseignements de l'invention, avec interposition d'un volet
86 de commande du commutateur 42.The inner side of the user's phalanges, when
his hand is inside the
En position de repos, la plaque de préhension 76 obture
partiellement la cavité interne du boítier 54 et son bord
inférieur 88 délimite verticalement vers le bas l'ouverture de
la palette 22 permettant l'introduction de la main de
l'utilisateur.In the rest position, the gripping
La palette 22 est montée articulée autour de l'axe A1,
sur la tige 74.The
A cet effet, la plaque supérieure 90 du cadre 78 de la
palette 22 comporte deux pattes verticales 92 qui sont
parallèles aux pattes 70 du boítier 54 et qui comportent chacune
un trou 94 pour le passage à rotation de la tige 74.For this purpose, the
La palette 22 est rappelée élastiquement vers sa
position de repos qui est notamment illustrée à la figure 7,
dans laquelle la partie supérieure de la plaque de préhension 76
est en appui contre la tôle 20, par l'intermédiaire de deux
ressorts 96 montés sur la tige 74.
Les ressorts prennent appui sur une traverse 98 en
forme de plaquette verticale qui est fixée dans des fentes 100
des pattes 92 d'articulation de la palette 22.The springs are supported on a
La traverse 98 se prolonge à l'une de ses extrémités
par un élément 30 appartenant à la tringlerie qui relie la
palette 22 à la serrure 24.
Conformément aux enseignements de l'invention, l'organe
de commande manuelle du commutateur 42 est un volet 86 agencé à
l'intérieur de la palette 22 et qui est réalisé sous la forme
d'un volet de commande.In accordance with the teachings of the invention, the organ
Le volet 86 est constitué pour l'essentiel par une
plaque 102 d'orientation verticale qui est agencée à l'intérieur
de la palette 22 en regard de la face interne 84 de la plaque de
préhension 76 au voisinage de cette dernière.
La plaque 102 constituant le volet 86 est délimitée par
un bord inférieur 104 qui est parallèle et adjacent au bord
inférieur 88 de la plaque de préhension 76 de la palette 22.The
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré aux figures 5 à 9,
le volet 86 est monté pivotant par rapport à la palette 22.In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 5 to 9,
the
Dans le mode de réalisation proposé sur les figures, ce
montage relatif pivotant du volet 86 par la palette 22 est
réalisé grâce au montage pivotant du volet 86 sur la tige 74,
c'est-à-dire autour de l'axe A1.In the embodiment proposed in the figures, this
relative pivoting mounting of the
A cet effet, le volet 86 comporte une plaque supérieure
horizontale 106 à partir de laquelle s'étendent verticalement
deux pattes d'articulation 108 dont chacune comporte un trou 110
destiné à être traversé par la tige 74.For this purpose, the
Les ressorts 96, selon une conception qui n'est pas
représentée en détail sur les figures, sont des ressorts de
rappel communs à la palette 22 et au volet 86, c'est-à-dire
qu'ils rappellent élastiquement ce dernier vers sa position
neutre illustrée aux figures 5 à 9 dans laquelle les pattes
d'articulation 108 sont en butée contre les bords arrière 112
des fenêtres 114 formées dans la plaque supérieure 90 du cadre
78 de la palette 22 pour le passage des pattes d'articulation
108, ces dernières traversant, avec les pattes 92 d'articulation
de la palette 22, des fenêtres 116 formées dans la plaque
supérieure 68 du cadre 60 du boítier 54.The
Le bouton 50 pour la commande manuelle du verrouillage
des serrures est un bouton qui est ici monté pivotant dans le
boítier pivotant autour d'un axe vertical 120 du boítier 54.
Le bouton 50 est accessible à travers l'ouverture de la
palette 22 et il agit sur le commutateur 52 porté par le fond 56
du boítier 54 à travers une fenêtre 122 formée dans le fond
incurvé 80 de la palette 22.The
Lorsque l'utilisateur introduit les doigts de sa main
28 dans la palette 22, la face interne de ses phalanges se
trouve en regard de la plaque 102 du volet 86, les bords
inférieurs 88 et 104 de la plaque de préhension 76 et du volet
86 étant sensiblement dans le creux de la paume de sa main. When the user introduces the fingers of his
Le mouvement naturel de manoeuvre de la palette 22
aboutit inévitablement à ce que l'utilisateur commence par
appliquer un effort de traction au volet 86 provoquant le
pivotement de ce dernier, autour de l'axe A1, provoquant ainsi
en premier l'actionnement du commutateur 42 notamment au vu de
la mise en oeuvre de l'antenne 40.The natural movement of the
Le geste naturel de manoeuvre par traction de la
palette 22 se continue et l'utilisateur entraíne la plaque de
préhension 76 à travers le volet 86, ce dernier étant venu en
butée par la face avant de sa plaque 102 contre la face interne
84 de la plaque de préhension 76.The natural gesture of maneuver by pulling the
Il se produit alors un pivotement simultané, autour de
l'axe A1, de la palette 22 et du volet 86.There is then a simultaneous pivoting, around
axis A1,
Lorsque l'utilisateur relâche son effort de traction
sur la palette 22, il relâche simultanément la palette 22 et le
volet 86 de commande du commutateur 42, ces deux composants
étant rappelés élastiquement vers leurs positions de repos et
neutre illustrées aux figures 5 à 8.When the user releases his traction effort
on
Pour provoquer le verrouillage des serrures, il suffit
à l'utilisateur d'agir sur le bouton de commande manuelle 50
pour provoquer un pivotement de ce dernier dans le sens de la
flèche indiqué à la figure 8.To cause the locks to lock, just
the user to act on the
Dans la variante de réalisation illustrée à la figure
10, le volet 86 est monté coulissant par rapport à la palette 22
selon une direction de coulissement C qui est parallèle au plan
général de la plaque de préhension 76 et perpendiculaire à l'axe
A1 d'articulation de la palette 22.In the alternative embodiment illustrated in the figure
10, the
Le volet 86 est rappelé élastiquement vers sa position
de repos par des ressorts spécifiques 130 interposés entre la
palette 22 et le volet 86, par exemple sur une tige 132 de
guidage en coulissement du volet 86 dont l'extrémité supérieure
libre est susceptible d'agir sur un organe 134 de déclenchement
du commutateur 42, ce dernier étant porté par une portion en
vis-à-vis du boítier 54.The
Ici encore, du fait de l'agencement du volet de
commande 86 à l'intérieur de la plaque de préhension 76, le
mouvement naturel par traction de la palette 22 par la main 28
de l'utilisateur aboutit à une action première de la paume de la
main sur le bord inférieur 104 du volet 86, c'est-à-dire à un
actionnement du commutateur 42 au début du mouvement de
pivotement de la palette 22.Here again, due to the arrangement of the
La conception d'une poignée à palette à volet de commande manuelle d'un commutateur intégré n'est pas limitée à son utilisation pour l'ouverture d'un ouvrant équipant un véhicule dont le dispositif de commande de l'ouverture des serrures est du type à antenne et transpondeur.The design of a paddle handle with flap manual control of an integrated switch is not limited to its use for opening a window fitted to a vehicle whose device for controlling the opening of locks is of the antenna and transponder type.
L'invention trouve notamment à s'appliquer dans le
cadre de tout dispositif de commande faisant par exemple appel à
un module d'identification par échange de données entre un
émetteur et un récepteur, le commutateur actionné par le volet
86 pouvant assurer une fonction quelconque dans le cadre du
processus d'identification en vue du déverrouillage des
serrures.The invention is particularly applicable in the
part of any control device using, for example,
an identification module by data exchange between a
transmitter and receiver, the switch operated by the
La conception et le tarage des différents ressorts de

Selon une variante de réalisation non représentée sur
les figures, et afin de permettre à l'utilisateur de visualiser
l'opération de déverrouillage, et éventuellement pour lui
permettre de donner à celle-ci le temps de s'effectuer avant de
manoeuvrer complètement la palette 22, on peut prévoir d'agencer
sur la poignée un ou plusieurs voyants dont l'allumage et
l'extinction rendent compte du déroulement des opérations.According to an alternative embodiment not shown on
the figures, and in order to allow the user to visualize
the unlocking operation, and possibly for him

Afin d'améliorer la fiabilité de la conception selon
l'invention, il est possible d'ajouter un second commutateur en
parallèle avec le commutateur 42 sur lequel c'est la palette 22
qui agit et ceci afin de garantir la mise en oeuvre de l'antenne
40 même dans le cas où l'utilisateur provoquerait le pivotement
de la palette 22 sans agir sur le volet 86.In order to improve the reliability of the design according to
the invention, it is possible to add a second switch by
parallel with the
