Il est connu d'implanter des pédaliers ajustables dans les véhicules automobiles et certains sont actuellement utilisés sur les véhicules équipés de boite de vitesse automatique et commandés depuis un boitier de commande accessible depuis le poste de conduite. Le terme « ajustable » signifie que tout ou partie du pédalier est susceptible d'être rapproché ou éloigné du siège du conducteur dans le sens de la longueur du véhicule de sorte qu'il est possible d'adapter la position d'au moins une partie du pédalier par rapport au siège du conducteur et donc à sa taille.It is known to implement adjustable pedals in motor vehicles and some are currently used on vehicles equipped with automatic gearbox and controlled from a control box accessible from the driving position. The term "adjustable" means that all or part of the crankset is likely to be moved closer to or away from the driver's seat in the direction of the length of the vehicle so that it is possible to adjust the position of at least a part of the crankset. pedal compared to the driver's seat and therefore to its size.
En particulier, il est connu dans les véhicules équipés de boite de vitesse mécanique des pédales de frein susceptibles d'être ajustées en fonction de la taille du conducteur.In particular, it is known in vehicles equipped with mechanical gearbox brake pedals likely to be adjusted according to the size of the driver.
Ainsi, il est connu des pédales de frein du type mentionné en préambule. Ce type de pédales de frein ne donne pas entière satisfaction en particulier pour les conducteurs de petite taille. En effet, une fois le réglage de la pédale effectué, le freinage effectué par le conducteur n'est pas nécessairement suffisamment important pour pouvoir freiner le véhicule de manière correcte car la course utile de la pédale n'est pas compensée et la force de freinage de service.Thus, it is known brake pedals of the type mentioned in the preamble. This type of brake pedal is not entirely satisfactory especially for small drivers. Indeed, once the adjustment of the pedal performed, the braking performed by the driver is not necessarily important enough to be able to brake the vehicle correctly because the useful stroke of the pedal is not compensated and the braking force on duty.
Le but de la présente invention est alors de proposer une pédale de frein du type mentionné ci-dessus dont la course utile puisse être compensée quelle que soit sa position.The object of the present invention is then to provide a brake pedal of the type mentioned above whose useful stroke can be compensated regardless of its position.
Pour ce faire, l'invention a pour objet une pédale de frein, destinée à équiper un véhicule, notamment un véhicule automobile, un bâti monté à rotation autour d'un premier axe de rotation adapté pour être lié au tablier du véhicule, une âme pédale à une extrémité de laquelle est fixée un pion adapté pour coulisser dans une lumière pratiquée dans le bâti, un mécanisme de déplacement pour faire coulisser le pion dans la lumière en définissant une longueur (L) entre l'axe de rotation du bâti et l'autre extrémité de l'âme pédale, une première bride liée au bâti et montée à rotation autour d'un deuxième axe de rotation, distinct du premier axe de rotation, adapté pour être lié au tablier du véhicule, une liaison adaptée pour recevoir l'extrémité de la tige de l'amplificateur de freinage à une distance (R) du deuxième axe de rotation, caractérisée en ce qu'elle comprend des moyens pour obtenir un rapport de démultiplication (L/R) constant, la bride étant liée au bâti par une bride montée à pivotement sur le bâti et sur la bride par des liaisons pivots.To do this, the subject of the invention is a brake pedal, intended to equip a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, a frame rotatably mounted about a first axis of rotation adapted to be connected to the deck of the vehicle, a core pedal at one end of which is fixed a pin adapted to slide in a slot in the frame, a movement mechanism for sliding the pin into the light by defining a length (L) between the axis of rotation of the frame and the other end of the pedal soul, a first flange connected to the frame and mounted to rotate about a second axis of rotation, distinct from the first axis of rotation, adapted to be connected to the deck of the vehicle, a connection adapted to receive the end of the rod of the braking amplifier at a distance (R) from the second axis of rotation, characterized in that it comprises means for obtaining a constant gear ratio (L / R), the flange being tied to the frame by a flange pivotally mounted on the frame and the flange by pivotal connections.
L'invention se démarque du document D1 :
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré de l'invention, les moyens pour obtenir un rapport de démultiplication (L/R) constant comprennent un écrou monté coulissant sur une vis sans fin solidaire d'une extrémité de la bride et adapté pour recevoir l'extrémité de la tige de l'amplificateur de freinage.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the means for obtaining a constant gear ratio (L / R) comprise a nut slidably mounted on an endless screw secured to one end of the flange and adapted to receive the end. of the brake booster rod.
Selon une autre caractéristique avantageuse, le mécanisme de déplacement comprend un réducteur d'angle accouplé à une vis sans fin sur laquelle un écrou solidaire de l'âme pédale est susceptible de venir coulisser.According to another advantageous characteristic, the displacement mechanism comprises an angle reducer coupled to a worm on which a nut integral with the pedal core is slidable.
De préférence, la vis sans fin et le réducteur d'angle sont fixés sur l'une des faces du bâti.Preferably, the worm and the angle reducer are fixed on one of the faces of the frame.
Avantageusement, le rapport entre la taille de l'écrou et celle de la vis sans fin des moyens pour obtenir le rapport de démultiplication constant est modifiable en fonction de la volonté du conducteur. Il est ainsi possible pour le conducteur d'avoir une loi course de la pédale en fonction de l'effort appliqué sur celle-ci adaptée à la morphologie du conducteur.Advantageously, the ratio between the size of the nut and that of the worm means to obtain the constant gear ratio is changeable depending on the will of the driver. It is thus possible for the driver to have a pedal stroke law depending on the effort applied to it adapted to the morphology of the driver.
L'invention concerne également un module de pédalier destiné à être implanté dans un véhicule automobile comprenant une pédale selon l'une des revendications précédentes.The invention also relates to a pedal module intended to be implanted in a motor vehicle comprising a pedal according to one of the preceding claims.
Ce module comprend avantageusement une pédale d'embrayage comprenant un mécanisme de déplacement permettant de réaliser le même déplacement spatial que celui de la pédale de frein.This module advantageously comprises a clutch pedal comprising a displacement mechanism for achieving the same spatial displacement as that of the brake pedal.
D'autres avantages et caractéristiques ressortiront mieux à la lecture de la description détaillée ci-dessous faite en référence aux figures 1a et 1b qui représentent respectivement une vue de chacun des côtés d'une pédale de frein conforme à l'invention.Other advantages and features will become more apparent on reading the detailed description below made in reference to Figures 1a and 1b which respectively show a view of each side of a brake pedal according to the invention.
Comme représenté, la pédale de frein 1 comprend tout d'abord un bâti 2 monté à rotation autour d'un axe de rotation 3 monté sur un support de pédalier non représenté sur lequel est également montée une pédale d'embrayage. Ce support est adapté pour être lié au tablier d'un véhicule automobile non représenté ici.As shown, the brake pedal 1 first comprises a
Le bâti 2 comprend dans sa partie inférieure des galets 31,32 entre lesquels une âme pédale 4 peut glisser.The
A l'extrémité supérieure 4a de cette âme pédale 4 est fixée un pion 5 adapté pour coulisser dans une lumière 21 pratiquée dans le bâti 2. A l'extrémité inférieure 4b de l'âme pédale 4 est fixé un patin 6 de forme connue en soi et de dimensions adaptées au véhicule.At the
Un mécanisme de déplacement 7 est prévu sur la face externe du bâti 2, pour faire coulisser le pion 5 dans la lumière 21 en définissant une longueur (L) entre l'axe de rotation 3 du flasque et l' extrémité inférieure 4b de l'âme pédale 4 approximativement au milieu du patin 6. Ce mécanisme 7 comprend un réducteur d'angle 71 accouplé à une vis sans fin 72 sur laquelle un écrou 73 solidaire de l'âme pédale 4 est susceptible de venir coulisser. Le réducteur d'angle 71 est constitué d'un train d'engrenage connu en soi non représenté ici. Son entrée 710 est reliée à un moteur électrique par l'intermédiaire d'un câble de transmission connu en soi. Ce moteur électrique est avantageusement pour des raisons de coût et d'encombrement celui qui alimente les autres mécanismes de déplacement des autres pédales.A displacement mechanism 7 is provided on the outer face of the
La pédale de frein 1 comprend également une une première bride 8 montée à rotation autour d'un deuxième axe de rotation 9 adapté pour être lié au tablier du véhicule.The brake pedal 1 also includes a a first flange 8 rotatably mounted about a second axis of rotation 9 adapted to be connected to the deck of the vehicle.
A l'extrémité supérieure 8a de cette bride 8 est fixée une deuxième bride 10 par l'intermédiaire d'une liaison pivot 11. Cette deuxième bride 10 est elle-même fixée au bâti 2 par l'intermédiaire d'une autre liaison pivot 12. Cette deuxième bride 10 comporte également un crochet 110 adapté pour permettre le déclenchement de contacteurs, tels que ceux déclenchant les feux stop ou ceux donnant une information au calculateur .At the upper end 8a of this flange 8 is fixed a
A l'extrémité inférieure 8b de cette bride 8 est fixée une liaison 13 sous la forme d'un écrou sur lequel est fixée, par l'intermédiaire d'une chappe 14, l'extrémité de la tige 15 hydraulique de l'amplificateur de freinage non représentée, à une distance ( R ) du deuxième axe de rotation 9.At the
Cet écrou 13 est monté coulissant sur une vis sans fin 16 fixée dans une fente pratiquée 81 dans la première bride 8. Cette vis sans fin 16 est susceptible d'être entrainée par une autre vis sans fin 17 montée dans un logement prévu dans la première bride 8. L'extrémité libre de la vis sans fin 17 est susceptible d'être entraînée par un câble de transmission non représenté relié à un moteur électrique qui alimente également le réducteur d'angle 71.This
La chappe 14 est distante du deuxième axe de rotation 9 d'une distance (R) qui varie donc en fonction de l'emplacement de l'écrou 13 sur la vis sans fin 16.The hatch 14 is distant from the second axis of rotation 9 by a distance (R) which therefore varies according to the location of the
Le fonctionnement de la pédale de frein 1 équipant un véhicule qui vient d'être décrite va maintenant être expliqué.The operation of the brake pedal 1 equipping a vehicle which has just been described will now be explained.
Lorsque le conducteur du véhicule prend place dans celui-ci, il règle la position de la pédale de frein 1 en actionnant le moteur électrique relié au réducteur d'angle 71. Celui transmet un mouvement rotatif à la vis sans fin 72 qui déplace l'écrou 73 parallèlement au bâti 2. Le pion 5 de l'âme pédale 4 coulisse alors dans la lumière 21, ce qui fait varier la longueur (L) séparant l'extrémité inférieure 4b de l'âme pédale 4 de l'axe de rotation 3. L'actionnement du moteur est réalisé jusqu'à atteindre la longueur (Lo) correspondant à une posture de conduite satisfaisante pour le conducteur.When the driver of the vehicle takes placed in it, it adjusts the position of the brake pedal 1 by actuating the electric motor connected to the
Simultanément, le moteur électrique entraîne, via le câble de transmission, la vis sans fin 17 qui entraîne à son tour celle 16 sur l'écrou 13 coulisse jusqu'à ce que la distance (R) soit modifiée pour atteindre la valeur ( Ro ) de sorte que le rapport (Lo/Ro) soit égal à celui initial. Ainsi, la pédale de frein 1 présente un rapport de démultiplication (L/R) constant quelle que soit sa position par rapport au tablier, c'est à dire sa course. Ceci se traduit pour le conducteur par un effort constant à effectuer.Simultaneously, the electric motor drives, via the transmission cable, the
Il va de soi que de nombreuses modifications de détail peuvent être apportées sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that many modifications of detail can be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
