Definitions

  • the optimization of assembly processes is one of the main vectors for improving profitability in the Automotive Industry.
  • the present invention proposes a simple, inexpensive and particularly easy to assemble handle holder intended to be fixed on the internal side of a bodywork panel, through at least one opening, provided with fixing means, each having a connecting foot and an attachment zone, which secure the handle support on the panel, characterized in that the attachment zone comprises n parts (n ⁇ 2) of different heights and offset laterally.
  • the term here refers to height, the distance between the support surface of the handle support in contact with the inner face of the panel and part of the attachment zone bearing on the outer face of the panel. We hear also by laterally offset, the fact that the different parts of the hooking area have front ends offset in the length direction of the handle holder, and in a direction which goes from the outside to the inside of said support bracket handle.
  • a handle support 1 intended to be mounted on the inner surface of an outer body panel 2 of a motor vehicle door.
  • the support 1 is provided with means which allow a quick and simple fixing of the support on the internal face of the panel 2.
  • the support 1 comprises a front support surface 3 and a rear support surface 4 which are each intended to bear against the internal face of the body panel 2.
  • the support 1 comprises, at its rear support surface 4, a fastening means 5.
  • This fastening means 5 essentially comprises, as can be seen in FIG. figure 3b a rigid connecting foot 6 perpendicular to the plane of the support 1 and which extends inside the support 1.
  • the connecting foot 6 is extended, at its upper end, by a hooking zone 7 which extends transversely towards the center of the support.
  • the attachment zone consists of two parts each comprising a flat base 8, 9 and a front end 10, 11.
  • the foot in its visible part, that is to say, emerging above the rear support surface of the support also has a front portion 12.
  • the flat bases 15 ° with respect to the support plane.
  • the two parts also have ⁇ different heights h1 and h2.
  • the height is here calculated as the distance between the fulcrum 13, 14 of the flat base, and the rear support surface 4 of the support.
  • the two parts are offset laterally towards the center of the support in the direction of the length.
  • the support 1 also comprises, at its front support surface 3, two flexible holding means 15, 16.
  • these holding means 15, 16 comprise essentially an elastic connecting foot 17 perpendicular to the plane of the support 1 and which extends inside the support 1.
  • the connecting foot 17 is extended at its upper end , by an attachment zone 18 which extends transversely towards the center of the support.
  • the catching area 18 consists of two parts each comprising a flat base 19, 20 and a front end 21, 22.
  • the foot in its visible part, that is to say emerging above of the rear support surface 3 of the support 2 also has a front portion 23.
  • the planar bases are inclined at an angle of 15 ° by ⁇ relative to the plane of the support.
  • the two sides also have different heights h1 and h2.
  • the height is here calculated as the distance between the fulcrum 24, 25 of the plane base, and the front support surface 3 of the support.
  • the two parts are offset laterally towards the center of the support in the direction of the length.
  • the support 1 also comprises, at its front bearing surface 3, a screw-type locking means, not shown here, which plugs into the orifice 26.
  • the panel 2 on which is fixed the support 1 first presents at its front surface 27, an orifice 28 to receive the locking screw.
  • the panel 2 finally has three openings, one 29 on the front surface 27 and two 30, 31 on the rear surface 32.
  • the panel 2 has a thickness E.
  • the handle support 1 is simply fixed on panels of different thicknesses.
  • the support 1 first bears against the inner face 33 'of the panel P1, leaving, above the outer surface 34' of said panel, the fixing means, a height h1.
  • the support 1 is moved longitudinally, the front end of the connecting leg 12 abuts against the edge 35 'of the opening 30' of the panel P1, and the flat base located at a height h1, which is equivalent to E1, bears against the outer face 34 'of the panel P1 at the point of support 13.
  • This embodiment allows a pre-assembly of the handle support on the panel without the support coming loose. Finally, once all the other parts of the handle assembled, the locking screw is used at the orifice 26 of the support and its counterpart 28 on the panel.
  • the flexible holding zones 15, 16 are omitted from the handle support 1.
  • the handle support 1 is no longer held fixedly on the panel 2 and it is therefore necessary to immediately assemble all the other parts and then tighten the locking screw.
