Description

L'invention concerne un véhicule automobile comprenant une porte battante et une porte coulissante montées dans le bâti du véhicule sans pied milieu entre la porte battante et la porte coulissante.The invention relates to a motor vehicle comprising a door and a sliding door mounted in the vehicle frame without foot middle between the swing door and the sliding door.

Le véhicule selon l'invention est plus particulièrement un véhicule de type monospace comprenant sur l'un de ses côtés, par exemple une porte coulissante arrière et une porte battante avant. Avec cette construction, la porte coulissante et la porte battante sont jointives lorsqu'elles sont fermées et l'absence de pied milieu améliore l'accès à l'intérieur du véhicule.The vehicle according to the invention is more particularly a vehicle of the type minivan comprising on one of its sides, for example a door sliding door and a hinged front door. With this construction, the sliding door and hinged door are joined when closed and the absence of a center leg improves access to the interior of the vehicle.

Il est nécessaire avec ce type de construction d'ouvrant de véhicule de prévoir une serrure liant la porte coulissante à la porte battante pour renforcer la résistance mécanique du véhicule, cette serrure étant destinée à reprendre les efforts entre ces deux portes et réduire ainsi la déformation du véhicule en cas d'accident.It is necessary with this type of vehicle window opening construction provide a lock connecting the sliding door to the hinged door to reinforce the mechanical resistance of the vehicle, this lock being intended to recover the efforts between these two doors and thus reduce the deformation of the vehicle in the event of an accident.

Dans l'art antérieur, cette serrure est une serrure classique qui est montée sur la porte battante et qui vient se lier à une gâche montée sur la porte coulissante. Avec cette serrure classique, la fermeture de la porte battante n'est possible que si la porte coulissante est fermée, et la fermeture de la porte coulissante n'est possible que si la porte battante est ouverte.In the prior art, this lock is a conventional lock which is mounted on the hinged door and which comes to bind to a strike mounted on the door sliding. With this classic lock, closing the hinged door is only possible if the sliding door is closed, and closing the sliding door is only possible if the hinged door is open.

Le but de l'invention est de remédier à cet inconvénient en proposant un agencement selon lequel la porte battante et la porte coulissante peuvent indépendamment l'une de l'autre être ouvertes et fermées.The object of the invention is to remedy this drawback by proposing a arrangement in which the hinged door and the sliding door can independently of each other be open and closed.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un véhicule automobile comprenant une porte battante et une porte coulissante montées dans un bâti sans pied milieu entre la porte battante et la porte coulissante, caractérisé en ce qu'il comprend une première serrure pour lier la porte battante à la porte coulissante, au moins une deuxième serrure pour lier la porte battante au bâti, au moins une troisième serrure pour lier la porte coulissante au bâti, et en ce que la première serrure a deux pênes formant une pince qui se ferme sur une gâche.To this end, the invention relates to a motor vehicle comprising a hinged door and a sliding door mounted in a footless frame middle between the hinged door and the sliding door, characterized in that includes a first lock to link the hinged door to the door sliding, at least a second lock to link the hinged door to the frame, at least a third lock for linking the sliding door to the frame, and in that the first lock has two bolts forming a clamp which closes on a keeper.

Avec cette construction a deux pênes de la première serrure, la gâche peut être engagée entre les deux pênes en arrivant dans deux directions différentes par rapport à la première serrure ce qui fait que les portes battante et coulissante peuvent être ouvertes et fermées indépendamment l'une de l'autre. Par ailleurs, les deuxième et troisième serrures permettent la fermeture d'une des portes quand l'autre est ouverte. With this construction has two bolts of the first lock, the strike can be engaged between the two bolts arriving in two directions different from the first lock so that the doors hinged and sliding can be opened and closed independently one from the other. In addition, the second and third locks allow the closing of one of the doors when the other is open.

Selon un mode de réalisation préféré du véhicule selon l'invention, la première serrure comprend un coulisseau pouvant se déplacer en translation entre une position « sorti » et une position « enfoncé » et deux pênes montés rotatifs et formant une pince qui est ouverte quand le coulisseau est dans la position "sorti" et qui est fermée quand le coulisseau est dans la position "enfoncé", et un cliquet apte à bloquer ledit coulisseau lorsqu'il atteint la position « enfoncé » pour maintenir la pince fermée et à libérer ledit coulisseau lorsqu'une poignée d'ouverture de la serrure est actionnée, lesdits pênes étant en outre liés en mouvement audit coulisseau de telle manière que ladite pince se ferme sur une gâche lorsque ladite gâche appuie sur le coulisseau et le fait passer de la position « sorti » vers la position « enfoncé ».According to a preferred embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, the first lock comprises a slide which can move in translation between an "extended" position and a "depressed" position and two bolts rotatably mounted and forming a clamp which is open when the slide is in the "extended" position and which is closed when the slide is in the "pressed" position, and a pawl capable of blocking said slide when it reaches the "pressed" position to keep the clamp closed and to release the said slide when an opening handle of the lock is actuated, said bolts being further linked in movement to said slide such so that said clamp closes on a strike when said strike press the slide and move it from the "out" position to the "pressed" position.

Avec cet agencement de la première serrure, la gâche peut être montée sur la porte coulissante et la serrure sur la porte battante ou inversement.With this arrangement of the first lock, the keeper can be mounted on the sliding door and the lock on the hinged door or vice versa.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation particulier du véhicule selon l'invention, les deux pênes de la première serrure sont accouplés en mouvement par un train d'engrenage et le coulisseau est lié en mouvement avec un seul des deux pênes ce qui simplifie le mécanisme de rappel par ressort de la serrure et réduit son coût de fabrication.According to yet another particular embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, the two bolts of the first lock are coupled in movement by a gear train and the slide is linked in movement with only one of the two bolts which simplifies the recall mechanism by spring from the lock and reduces its manufacturing cost.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation particulier du véhicule selon l'invention, ledit cliquet libère ledit coulisseau lorsqu'une poignée d'ouverture de la porte battante est actionnée et ledit cliquet libère ledit coulisseau lorsqu'une poignée d'ouverture de la porte coulissante est actionnée ce qui permet d'ouvrir la première serrure indifféremment à l'ouverture de la porte arrière coulissante ou de la porte avant battante.According to yet another particular embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, said pawl releases said slide when an opening handle of the hinged door is actuated and said pawl releases said slide when a sliding door opening handle is operated which allows the first lock to be opened equally when the door is opened sliding rear or hinged front door.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation particulier du véhicule selon l'invention, la porte battante est liée au bâti par plusieurs secondes serrures qui sont ajustées de telle manière qu'à la fermeture de la porte battante, il y ait une seconde serrure qui se ferme toujours en dernier, cette seconde serrure étant munie d'un détecteur de fermeture, ce qui permet d'obtenir une indication fiable de la fermeture correcte de la porte.According to yet another particular embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, the hinged door is linked to the frame by several second locks which are adjusted so that when the hinged door is closed, has a second lock which always closes last, this second lock being provided with a closing detector, which makes it possible to obtain a reliable indication of the correct closing of the door.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation particulier du véhicule selon l'invention, la porte coulissante est liée au bâti par plusieurs troisièmes serrures qui sont ajustées de telle manière qu'à la fermeture de la porte coulissante, il y ait une troisième serrure qui se ferme toujours en dernier, cette troisième serrure étant munie d'un détecteur de fermeture. According to yet another particular embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, the sliding door is linked to the frame by several thirds locks which are adjusted so that when the door is closed sliding, there is a third lock that always closes last, this third lock being provided with a closing detector.

Selon encore un autre mode de réalisation particulier du véhicule selon l'invention, le détecteur de fermeture est un commutateur électrique qui réagit à l'enfoncement d'une gâche dans la serrure.According to yet another particular embodiment of the vehicle according to the invention, the closure detector is an electrical switch which reacts to the insertion of a strike in the lock.

De cette façon, un utilisateur ne peut pas intervenir sur le détecteur pour modifier volontairement son état, en vue par exemple de rouler avec la porte correspondante ouverte.In this way, a user cannot intervene on the detector to voluntarily modify its state, for example in order to drive with the door correspondent open.

L'invention sera maintenant décrite plus en détail, et en référence aux dessins annexés qui en illustrent une forme de réalisation à titre d'exemple non limitatif.The invention will now be described in more detail, and with reference to attached drawings which illustrate an exemplary embodiment thereof not limiting.

La figure 1 est une vue d'ensemble schématique des portes du véhicule selon l'invention.Figure 1 is a schematic overview of the vehicle doors according to the invention.

La figure 2 est une vue schématique de la première serrure du véhicule.Figure 2 is a schematic view of the first lock of the vehicle.

Les figures 3, 4 et 5 illustrent le fonctionnement de la première serrure.Figures 3, 4 and 5 illustrate the operation of the first lock.

La figure 6 illustre une variante de réalisation de la première serrure du véhicule.FIG. 6 illustrates an alternative embodiment of the first lock of the vehicle.

La figure 7 illustre une réalisation de seconde et troisième serrure avec détecteur de fermeture.FIG. 7 illustrates an embodiment of a second and third lock with closing detector.

Le véhicule selon l'invention est notamment un véhicule dit « monospace » comprenant sur un côté une porte avant battante PB et une porte arrière coulissante PC montées dans le bâti BA du véhicule sans pied milieu entre la porte PB et la porte PC.The vehicle according to the invention is in particular a so-called vehicle "MPV" comprising on one side a swinging front door PB and a PC sliding rear door mounted in the BA frame of the vehicle without foot middle between door PB and door PC.

Sur la figure 1, la porte battante et la porte coulissante sont liées entre elles par une première serrure PS qui est ici montée sur la porte battante PB. La gâche correspondant à cette serrure est donc montée sur la porte coulissante PC.In Figure 1, the hinged door and the sliding door are linked between they by a first PS lock which is here mounted on the swing door PB. The strike corresponding to this lock is therefore mounted on the door. sliding PC.

Par ailleurs, la porte battante PB est ici liée au bâti BA par deux deuxièmes serrures DS1 et DS2 respectivement montées dans la partie supérieure et dans la partie inférieure de la porte battante et la porte coulissante PC est liée ici au bâti BA par une troisième serrure TS montée sur la partie arrière de la porte coulissante PC. L'invention n'est pas limitée au nombre de deuxièmes et troisièmes serrures liant les portes au bâti.Furthermore, the swing door PB is here linked to the BA frame by two second locks DS1 and DS2 respectively mounted in the part upper and lower part of the swing door and the door sliding PC is linked here to the BA frame by a third TS lock mounted on the back of the PC sliding door. The invention is not limited the number of second and third locks connecting the doors to the frame.

Compte tenu notamment des particularités de la première serrure PS, qui seront détaillées plus loin, la porte battante PB et la porte coulissante PC sont aptes à être fermées et ouvertes indépendamment l'une de l'autre. En effet, si la porte coulissante est ouverte, la porte battante pourra s'accrocher sur le bâti BA du véhicule au moyen des deuxièmes serrures DS1, DS2, et si la porte coulissante PC est fermée, la première serrure s'accrochera en plus sur la gâche correspondante de la porte coulissante. De façon similaire, si la porte battante PB est ouverte, la fermeture de la porte coulissante pourra être réalisée grâce à l'accrochage de la troisième serrure sur le bâti du véhicule, et si la porte battante est fermée la gâche de la porte coulissante s'accrochera en plus sur la première serrure PS montée sur la porte battante PB. Ainsi, lorsque les deux portes sont fermées, la première serrure lie nécessairement la porte battante à la porte coulissante de manière notamment à reprendre des efforts mécaniques en cas d'accident. La première serrure pourrait aussi bien être montée sur la porte coulissante pour s'accrocher sur une gâche correspondante montée sur la porte battante.Taking into account in particular the peculiarities of the first PS lock, which will be detailed later, the swing door PB and the sliding door PC are capable of being closed and opened independently of each other. In indeed, if the sliding door is open, the hinged door can hang on the vehicle frame BA by means of the second locks DS1, DS2, and if the PC sliding door is closed, the first lock will also be hung on the corresponding keeper of the sliding door. Similarly, if the swing door PB is open, the sliding door can be closed be carried out by hooking the third lock on the frame of the vehicle, and if the swing door is closed the sliding door strike will also hang on the first PS lock mounted on the hinged door PB. So when both doors are closed, the first lock ties necessarily the swing door to the sliding door so in particular to recover mechanical forces in the event of an accident. The first lock might as well be mounted on the sliding door to hang on a corresponding keeper mounted on the door fighter.

Comme visible sur la figure 2, la première serrure PS comprend un coulisseau CO pouvant se déplacer en translation selon un axe AX, et qui est lié en mouvement à deux pênes P1 et P2 montés rotatifs sur un axe de rotation commun AR perpendiculaire à l'axe AX. Les pênes P1 et P2 ainsi que le coulisseau CO sont des pièces sensiblement planes qui sont disposées les unes sur les autres et qui sont chacune traversées par l'axe de rotation AR. Le coulisseau CO comprend un trou oblong TO s'étendant selon l'axe AX et permettant un déplacement du coulisseau le long de l'axe AX.As shown in Figure 2, the first lock PS includes a CO slider which can move in translation along an axis AX, and which is linked in movement to two bolts P1 and P2 rotatably mounted on an axis of common rotation AR perpendicular to the axis AX. P1 and P2 bolts as well that the CO slider are substantially flat parts which are arranged one on top of the other and which are each crossed by the axis of AR rotation. The slide CO includes an oblong hole TO extending along the axis AX and allowing a displacement of the slide along the axis AX.

Les pênes P1 et P2 sont sensiblement symétriques, et forment une pince PI liée en mouvement au coulisseau CO apte à emprisonner ou à libérer une gâche GA comme visible sur les figures 3, 4 et 5, c'est à dire la gâche qui est montée sur la porte coulissante PC. Le coulisseau CO peut se déplacer en translation selon l'axe AX, entre une position dite "sorti" visible sur les figures 3 et 5, et une position "enfoncé" visible sur la figure 4. Lorsque le coulisseau est en position "sorti", la pince PI est ouverte pour libérer ou recevoir la gâche GA, et lorsque le coulisseau est en position "enfoncé", la pince PI est fermée pour emprisonner la gâche tel que visible sur la figure 4.The bolts P1 and P2 are substantially symmetrical, and form a clamp PI linked in movement to the slide CO capable of trapping or releasing a keeper GA as visible in figures 3, 4 and 5, i.e. keeper which is mounted on the PC sliding door. The CO slider can move in translation along the axis AX, between a so-called "out" position visible in the figures 3 and 5, and a "pushed in" position visible in FIG. 4. When the slide is in the "out" position, the PI clamp is open to release or receive the strike plate GA, and when the slide is in the "depressed" position, the PI clamp is closed to trap the keeper as seen in Figure 4.

Lorsque la porte battante est rabattue alors que la porte coulissante est fermée, la gâche GA montée sur la porte coulissante appuie sur un bord d'attaque BO du coulisseau pour le faire passer de la position "sorti" vers la position "enfoncé", ce qui provoque l'emprisonnement de la gâche GA par la pince PI, comme visible sur la figure 4.When the hinged door is folded down while the sliding door is closed, the strike keeper GA mounted on the sliding door presses on an edge BO of the slide to move it from the "out" position to the "depressed" position, which causes the GA keep to be trapped by the PI clamp, as shown in Figure 4.

De manière similaire, lorsque la porte coulissante est rabattue alors que la porte battante est fermée, la gâche GA appuie sur le coulisseau pour se faire emprisonner par la pince PI. Le bord d'attaque BO du coulisseau qui se trouve à l'intérieur de la pince reçoit donc la gâche GA par un premier côté lorsque la porte battante est rabattue (Fig. 3), et par un second côté lorsque la porte coulissante est refermée (Fig. 5).Similarly, when the sliding door is folded down while the hinged door is closed, the keeper GA presses the slide to trap with the PI clamp. The leading edge BO of the slide which is found inside the clamp therefore receives the strike plate GA by a first side when the hinged door is folded down (Fig. 3), and by a second side when the sliding door is closed (Fig. 5).

Pour assurer le maintien fermé de la première serrure PS lorsque la gâche GA est emprisonnée, la première serrure PS comprend aussi un cliquet CL disposé à une extrémité du coulisseau CO, de telle manière que ce cliquet bloque le coulisseau lorsque celui-ci atteint sa position "enfoncé", en se logeant dans un chanfrein de blocage CH réalisé à l'extrémité du coulisseau. Ce cliquet CL peut être manoeuvré par l'intermédiaire d'une poignée de porte de telle manière qu'il libère le coulisseau lorsque cette poignée est actionnée, pour déclencher l'ouverture de la serrure. Plus particulièrement, la serrure comprend un système de rappel à ressort non représenté agissant sur les pênes P1 et P2, et tendant à ramener le coulisseau en position "sorti". De cette manière, dès que le cliquet CL libère le coulisseau en réponse à une sollicitation de la poignée de porte, le coulisseau vient en appui sur la gâche GA pour ouvrir la pince formée par les deux pênes P1, P2 et amorcer l'ouverture de la porte.To keep the first PS lock closed when the keeper GA is trapped, the first lock PS also includes a CL ratchet placed at one end of the CO slide, so that this ratchet blocks the slide when it reaches its "pressed" position, by being housed in a CH blocking chamfer made at the end of the slide. This CL ratchet can be operated via a door handle in such a way that it releases the slide when this handle is actuated, to trigger the opening of the lock. More in particular, the lock includes a spring return system not shown acting on the bolts P1 and P2, and tending to bring the slide in "out" position. In this way, as soon as the CL pawl releases the slide in response to a request from the door handle, the slide comes to rest on the strike plate GA to open the clamp formed by the two bolts P1, P2 and initiate the opening of the door.

Pour améliorer l'ergonomie du véhicule, la libération du coulisseau CO par le cliquet CL sera déclenchée indifféremment lorsque la poignée de la porte battante sera actionnée ou lorsque la poignée de la porte coulissante sera actionnée. Ce déclenchement pourra être réalisé par exemple grâce à une assistance électrique du cliquet CL ou encore avec une commande par câble ou par levier du cliquet CL.To improve the ergonomics of the vehicle, the release of the CO slider by the CL ratchet will be triggered indifferently when the door handle door will be operated or when the sliding door handle will be actuated. This triggering can be achieved for example through a electric assistance of the ratchet CL or with a command by cable or by lever of the ratchet CL.

Comme visible sur la figure 2, chaque pêne P1, P2 comprend un galet G1, G2 qui appuie sur une paroi externe correspondante E1, E2 du coulisseau. Ces parois externes E1 et E2 sont disposées symétriquement par rapport à l'axe AX selon un angle non nul de telle manière que la distance entre chaque galet G1, G2 et l'axe AX dépend de la position occupée par le coulisseau CO dans son mouvement entre la position "enfoncé" et la position "sorti". Ainsi, lorsque le coulisseau est en position "enfoncé", les galets G1, G2 sont éloignés de l'axe, pour que la pince PI soit fermée, et lorsque le coulisseau est en position "sorti", les galets G1, G2 sont proches de l'axe pour que la pince PI soit ouverte. Le système de rappel à ressort tend à faire appuyer chaque galet sur la paroi correspondante, et il pourra comprendre pour ce faire un ressort agissant sur chaque pêne P1, P2.As visible in Figure 2, each bolt P1, P2 includes a roller G1, G2 which presses on a corresponding external wall E1, E2 of the slide. These external walls E1 and E2 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis AX at a nonzero angle so that the distance between each roller G1, G2 and the axis AX depends on the position occupied by the CO slider in its movement between the position "pressed" and the position "pulled out". So when the slider is in position "pressed", the rollers G1, G2 are distant from the axis, so that the clamp PI is closed, and when the slide is in the "out" position, the rollers G1, G2 are close to the axis so that the PI clamp is open. The system of spring return tends to press each roller on the wall corresponding, and it will be able to include a spring acting on each bolt P1, P2.

En variante, les pênes P1 et P2 pourront comprendre chacun une denture d'engrenage D1, D2, et être montés rotatifs sur des axes distincts A1 et A2 disposés de part et d'autre de l'axe AX, comme représenté sur la figure 6. Dans cette variante, les dentures D1 et D2 s'engrènent dans une zone proche de l'axe AX, pour que les deux pênes soient liés en mouvement et que la rotation de l'un provoque la rotation de l'autre. Dans cette variante, le coulisseau CO est lié en mouvement à un seul des pênes en vue de réduire le nombre de pièces constitutives de la serrure. Ainsi, un seul galet G1 est nécessaire pour lier en mouvement la pince PI au coulisseau CO, et de même un seul ressort de rappel est suffisant pour les deux pênes, ce qui permettra une réduction du coût de fabrication d'une telle serrure.Alternatively, the bolts P1 and P2 may each include a toothing D1, D2, and be rotatably mounted on separate axes A1 and A2 arranged on either side of the axis AX, as shown in FIG. 6. In this variant, the teeth D1 and D2 mesh in a zone close to the axis AX, so that the two bolts are linked in movement and that the rotation of one causes the rotation of the other. In this variant, the CO slider is linked in movement to only one of the bolts in order to reduce the number of component parts of the lock. So only one G1 roller is necessary to link the PI clamp in motion to the CO slide, and even a single return spring is sufficient for both bolts, which will reduce the cost of manufacturing such a lock.

Dans un tel véhicule les dispersions géométriques ne permettent généralement pas de garantir un accrochage simultané de toutes les serrures qui lient la porte battante au bâti, et de même pour la porte coulissante. Sur la figure 1, on a représenté la porte battante avec deux serrures DS1, DS2 la liant au bâti. Il est entendu que l'on peut prévoir plus de deux serrures pour lier cette porte au bâti. Pour s'affranchir du problème de dispersion géométrique, dans le véhicule selon l'invention, les deuxièmes serrures DS1, DS2 sur la porte battante PB sont ajustées de telle manière que l'une d'entre elles se ferme toujours en dernier. Il en est de même pour les troisièmes serrures de la porte coulissante PC. Sur la figure 7, on a représenté un exemple de réalisation d'une deuxième ou troisième serrure qui comporte un pêne rotatif PT qui vient emprisonner une gâche GB engagée dans l'avaloir de la serrure, ainsi qu'un cliquet CQ rotatif qui bloque le pêne PT lorsque la gâche est emprisonnée.In such a vehicle, the geometric dispersions do not allow generally not to guarantee a simultaneous hanging of all locks that link the hinged door to the frame, and the same for the door sliding. In Figure 1, there is shown the hinged door with two locks DS1, DS2 linking it to the frame. It is understood that one can plan more two locks to link this door to the frame. To get rid of the problem of geometric dispersion, in the vehicle according to the invention, the second DS1, DS2 locks on the swing door PB are adjusted in such a way that one of them always closes last. It is the same for the third locks on the PC sliding door. In Figure 7, we have shown an embodiment of a second or third lock which includes a rotary latch PT which traps a GB strike engaged in the opening of the lock, as well as a rotary CQ ratchet which blocks the PT bolt when the keeper is trapped.

Par ajustement, on entend le positionnement avec un certain jeu du cliquet CQ par rapport au pêne PT de manière à laisser une certaine liberté de mouvement de la gâche GB dans la serrure lorsqu'elle y est emprisonnée.By adjustment is meant positioning with a certain play of the ratchet CQ in relation to the bolt PT so as to leave a certain freedom movement of the keeper GB in the lock when it is there imprisoned.

La seconde serrure ou troisième serrure se fermant toujours en dernier est équipée d'un détecteur de fermeture montré sur la figure 7 pour signaler la fermeture correcte de la porte sur laquelle est montée cette serrure. The second lock or third lock always closing last is equipped with a closing detector shown in figure 7 to signal the correct closing of the door on which this lock is mounted.

Le détecteur de fermeture DF pourra comprendre un commutateur électrique CE ayant une lame LA mobile qui est déplacée par la gâche quand celle-ci est enfoncée dans la serrure jusqu'à la position où le cliquet CQ bloque le pêne PT.The DF closing detector may include a switch electric CE having a movable LA blade which is moved by the keeper when it is pushed into the lock to the position where the pawl CQ blocks the PT latch.

L'intérêt d'un tel détecteur est qu'il est placé au fond de la serrure de porte de façon inaccessible à l'utilisateur du véhicule pour l'empêcher de simuler un état de fermeture complète de la porte alors que celle-ci est ouverte.The advantage of such a detector is that it is placed at the bottom of the door lock inaccessible to the user of the vehicle to prevent him from simulating a state of complete closure of the door while it is open.
