Description
La présente invention se rapporte à une clé, notamment une clé de véhicule automobile, présentant un insert escamotable dont le jeu est limité lorsque la clé est déployée.The present invention relates to a key, including a motor vehicle key, having a retractable insert whose play is limited when the key is deployed.
Le domaine de l'invention est, d'une manière générale, celui des clés à insert escamotable. De telles clés sont fréquemment utilisées dans le domaine automobile car elles offrent notamment l'avantage de présenter un encombrement réduit lorsqu'elles ne sont pas utilisées : en effet, de telles clés peuvent adopter soit une position de repos, dans laquelle le panneton de la clé est replié dans le corps de ladite clé, soit une position d'utilisation, dans laquelle l'insert sort du corps de la clé afin d'être introduit dans une serrure.The field of the invention is, in general, that of the keys with retractable insert. Such keys are frequently used in the automotive field because they offer the particular advantage of having a small footprint when they are not used: indeed, such keys can adopt either a rest position, in which the bit of the key is folded into the body of said key, a position of use, wherein the insert out of the body of the key to be introduced into a lock.
Un tel exemple de clé est donné aux
La clé 1 représentée sur les
Dans l'exemple illustré, le boîtier 3 est réalisé en deux parties sous la forme d'une demi-coquille supérieure 3a formant couvercle, présentant une face intérieure 41, et d'une demi-coquille inférieure 3b formant fond de boîtier, présentant une face intérieure 40. La face intérieure 40 du fond de boîtier 3b et la face intérieure 41 du couvercle 3b sont ainsi en regard l'une de l'autre. Les deux demi-coquilles 3a, 3b peuvent être assemblées par exemple par clipsage. Un joint d'étanchéité (non représenté) peut être disposé entre les deux demi-coquilles 3a, 3b pour assurer la protection de l'intérieur du boîtier 3 contre l'environnement extérieur, en particulier contre l'humidité ou la poussière. On peut prévoir encore une ceinture de décoration (non représentée) disposée entre les deux demi-coquilles 3a, 3b pour enjoliver l'ensemble.In the illustrated example, the
La clé 1 peut également combiner une clé mécanique et une clé électronique. Dans ce cas, une carte électronique à circuit imprimé (non représentée) est disposée dans le boîtier 3. Cette carte porte les circuits électroniques de télécommande pour le verrouillage / déverrouillage centralisé des ouvrants du véhicule, ainsi qu'un transpondeur (non représenté) pour le système anti-vol du véhicule et une pile d'alimentation (non représentée) pour la fonction de télécommande. Cette fonction de télécommande est actionnée par l'opérateur par le biais de boutons d'actionnement 11 prévus sur la demi-coquille supérieure 3a.The key 1 can also combine a mechanical key and an electronic key. In this case, a printed circuit board (not shown) is disposed in the
En outre, le support 5 comporte deux extrémités 5a, 5b opposées, dont l'extrémité 5a porte le panneton 7. Pour cela, une extrémité du panneton 7 peut être emboîtée dans un logement complémentaire (non représenté) au niveau de l'extrémité 5a du support 5. L'ensemble support 5 / panneton 7 est maintenu fixe par exemple par une goupille (non représentée) traversant des trous 17 ménagés sur le support 5 et le panneton 7. Bien entendu, le panneton 7 peut être fixé au support 5 par tout autre moyen approprié. Par ailleurs, le mécanisme de déploiement de l'insert 5, 7 comprend : un bouton poussoir 19 reçu dans un logement 21 associé de la demi-coquille supérieure 3a et traversant un orifice 6 du support 5, le bouton poussoir 19 faisant saillie par rapport à la demi-coquille supérieure 3a de façon à être accessible à un utilisateur pour qu'il puisse actionner ce bouton poussoir 19 pour déployer l'insert 5, 7, et un élément de rappel élastique 23 fixé par une première extrémité 23a à l'insert 5,7 et par une seconde extrémité 23b à un élément bloqué en rotation par rapport au boîtier 3, pour solliciter l'insert 5,7 en pivotement vers la position d'utilisation lorsque le bouton poussoir 19 est actionné. Cet élément de rappel 23 est un ressort hélicoïdal de torsion. Lorsque le bouton poussoir 19 est actionné par l'utilisateur, le bouton poussoir 19 est entraîné en translation axiale selon l'axe longitudinal A au sein du support 5.In addition, the
Afin d'éviter que le bouton poussoir 19 ne vienne en butée contre la paroi de fond du support 5 en fin de course, on peut prévoir un moyen d'arrêt du bouton poussoir 19. Ce moyen d'arrêt peut comporter un plot d'arrêt ménagé dans le support 5 sur lequel le bouton poussoir 19 vient en contact en fin de course, de sorte que le mouvement de translation du bouton poussoir 19 est stoppé avant que ce dernier n'atteigne la paroi de fond du support 5. Dans le mode de réalisation illustré sur les
Ainsi, c'est le bouton poussoir 19 qui permet à la fois d'enclencher le mécanisme de déploiement, de guider le bouton poussoir 19 en translation, et de bloquer en rotation le bouton poussoir 19. Dans l'exemple illustré, ce moyen de blocage formant guide comporte au moins un ergot de guidage 25 qui s'étend en saillie vers l'extérieur en partant de la surface externe du bouton poussoir 19. On peut prévoir que le bouton poussoir 19 comporte deux ergots de guidage 25 diamétralement opposés ou encore trois ergots de guidage 25 régulièrement répartis pour un guidage en translation optimisé.Thus, it is the
On définit par volume libre de la clé 1 le volume intérieur de la clé occupé par l'insert 5, 7 lorsque la clé est en position de repos. Le support du panneton évolue en rotation autour de l'axe longitudinal A dans une partie de ce volume libre lorsqu'on passe de la position de repos à la position d'utilisation et vice-versa. La partie du volume libre dans laquelle évolue, lors du passage de la position de repos à la position d'utilisation de la clé et vice-versa, le support 5 du panneton 7 est désigné comme le volume d'évolution du support 5. Il est délimité par une partie de la face intérieure 41, dite zone d'évolution haute 43 du support 5, de la demi-coque supérieure 3a et une partie de la face intérieure 40, dite zone d'évolution basse 42 du support 5, de la demi-coque inférieure 3b. L'ensemble constitué par la zone d'évolution haute 43 et de la zone d'évolution basse 42 est désigné par l'expression "secteur d'évolution" du support 5 du panneton 7. La zone d'évolution haute 43 du support 5 présente un rebord haut 44, et la zone d'évolution basse 42 présente un rebord bas 45, le panneton 7 faisant saillie, dans la position d'utilisation, au niveau du rebord haut 44 et du rebord bas 45 dans la position d'utilisation de la clé. Le rebord haut 44 et le rebord bas 45 s'étendent tous les deux entre une première extrémité, dite extrémité de rotation 46 de la clé 1 - la rotation du panneton 7 autour de l'axe longitudinal A se faisant au niveau de l'extrémité de rotation 46, et une deuxième extrémité, dite extrémité de blocage 47 de la clé 1, ladite extrémité de blocage 47 marquant l'arrêt du panneton 1 lors de son passage de la position de repos à la position d'utilisation.The free volume of the key 1 is defined as the internal volume of the key occupied by the
Dans les clés du type de celle qui vient d'être décrite, lorsqu'elles sont en position d'utilisation, on constate, comme illustré à la
Un tel jeu peut présenter plusieurs problèmes ; d'une part il entraine une usure prématurée du mécanisme d'ouverture/fermeture de l'insert, du fait des frottements qu'il induit ; d'autre part, il donne une impression de fragilité de la clé à l'utilisateur.Such a game can present several problems; on the one hand it causes premature wear of the opening / closing mechanism of the insert, because of the friction it induces; on the other hand, it gives an impression of fragility of the key to the user.
L'objet de l'invention vise à résoudre les problèmes qui viennent d'être mentionnés. Dans l'invention, on propose une clé avec un insert escamotable présentant un jeu limité au niveau de l'extrémité du panneton. A cet effet, on prévoit dans l'invention de modifier la structure de certaines parties des clés à insert escamotable.

A titre d'exemple uniquement, on a représenté un cas de figure où les jeux intervenant entre le corps de la clé et le support du panneton sont présents au niveau de la demi-coquille supérieure ; dans d'autres exemples de réalisation de l'invention, de tels jeux pourraient bien évidemment être présents au niveau de la demi-coquille inférieure, ou même des deux demi-coquilles, inférieure et supérieure.By way of example only, there is shown a case in which games occurring between the body of the key and the support of the bit are present at the upper half-shell; in other embodiments of the invention, such games could obviously be present at the lower half-shell, or even both half-shells, lower and upper.
Les clés concernées par l'invention sont notamment celles décrites précédemment en référence aux
On retrouve notamment dans les clés selon l'invention le boîtier 3, l'insert comprenant le support de panneton 5 et le panneton 7 solidaire du support 5, la demi-coquille supérieure 3a formant couvercle, présentant une face intérieure 41, et la demi-coquille inférieure 3b formant fond de boîtier, présentant la face intérieure 40, l'axe longitudinal A, le bouton poussoir 19, la zone d'évolution haute 43 du support 5, la zone d'évolution basse 42 du support 5, le rebord haut 44, le rebord bas 45, l'extrémité de rotation 46, l'extrémité de blocage 47 de la clé 1.In the keys according to the invention, the
Dans l'invention, on résout le problème de jeu latéral en faisant en sorte que la zone d'évolution haute 43 du support 5 et la zone d'évolution basse 42 du support 5 ne soient plus strictement parallèles. A cette fin, on introduit au moins un point de rétrécissement au niveau de la zone d'évolution haute 43 afin de limiter un deuxième jeu 32, existant entre le support 5 et la zone d'évolution haute du support 5, par rapport à un premier jeu 31 existant entre l'extrémité de rotation 46 et le support 5. Le premier jeu 31 doit rester relativement important car il est situé dans une zone où existe une forte pression mécanique lorsque l'utilisateur presse le bouton poussoir 19, et il est nécessaire de ne pas bloquer la rotation de l'insert lors du passage de la position de repos à la position d'utilisation.In the invention, the problem of lateral clearance is solved by ensuring that the
Ainsi, dans l'exemple de la
Avantageusement, on prévoit que le point de rétrécissement ne soit pas disposé directement sur le rebord 44, mais vers l'intérieur de la clé, en demeurant cependant toujours sur la zone d'évolution haute 43 du support 5.Advantageously, it is expected that the narrowing point is not placed directly on the
