Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif élastique à encliquetageThe present invention relates to an elastic snap device
notamment pour immobiliser en position repliée un especially to immobilize in the folded position a
pare-soleil d'automobile, comprenant un axe qui, sur une certai- automotive sun visor, comprising an axis which, on a certain
ne partie au moins, a une section transversale non circulaire, et un organe élastique qui enserre l'axe dans ladite partie et not at least part, has a non-circular cross section, and an elastic member which encloses the axis in said portion and
applique une force de serrage dirigée radialement vers l'inté- applies a clamping force directed radially towards the
rieur. Dans un dispositif élastique à-encliquetage de ce type, l'organe élastique est constitué d'un morceau plié de métal élastique, qui enserre l'axe et lui applique une force de laughing. In an elastic snap-fastening device of this type, the elastic member consists of a folded piece of elastic metal, which encloses the axis and applies a force of
serrage sur une partie de l'axe comprenant une rainuré transver- on a part of the axis comprising a transverse groove
sale qui forme une surface plate de l'axe. Le ressort exerce par conséquent une pression sur des côtés diamétralement opposés de l'axe. Lorsqu'on fait tourner un tel ressort sur l'axe, deux positions distinctes d'encliquetage sont obtenues à chaque dirty which forms a flat surface of the axis. The spring therefore exerts pressure on diametrically opposite sides of the axis. When such a spring is rotated on the axis, two distinct latching positions are obtained at each
rotation; une première position lorsqu'un bras dxj ressort s'em- rotation; a first position when an arm dxj spring
boite dans la rainure de l'axe et une autre position lorsque son bras diamétralement opposé s'emboîte dans la rainure après box in the groove of the axis and another position when its diametrically opposed arm fits into the groove after
une demie rotation supplémentaire.an additional half rotation.
Ce type de dispositif élastique d'encliquetage sert, dans ureautomobile, à immobiliser le pare-soleil, dans une des positions d'encliquetage, en position repliée contre le plafond de l'automobile. Cela permet de prévoir un moindre effort de frottement du montage du pare-soleil, facilitant ainsi sa mise en position d'utilisation et son réglage, que lorsqu'il s'agit d'un pare-soleil pour lequel seul le frottement au niveau du montage sert à maintenir le pare-soleil en position repliée. Dans ce cas, le frottement doit être relativement important pour empêcher le pare-soleil de se mettre en position d'utilisation par suite de vibrations et de chocs dus à la conduite sur une chaussée irrégulière,- par exemple. Un inconvénient majeur de la disposition connue, toutefois, réside dans la présence de la seconde position d'encliquetage, ce qui fait que, une fois le This type of resilient snap device is used, in ureautomobile, to immobilize the sun visor, in one of the latching positions, in the folded position against the ceiling of the automobile. This makes it possible to provide a lower frictional effort of mounting the sun visor, thus facilitating its setting in position of use and its adjustment, than when it is a sun visor for which only the friction at the level of mounting serves to keep the sun visor in the folded position. In this case, the friction must be relatively large to prevent the sun visor from being placed in use position as a result of vibrations and shocks due to driving on an uneven road, for example. A major disadvantage of the known arrangement, however, lies in the presence of the second latching position, so that once the
pare-soleil abaissé au-delà d'un certain angleilse met brusque- sunshade lowered beyond a certain angle makes it suddenly

Le but de la présente invention est de réaliser un dis- The object of the present invention is to provide a
positif élastique à encliquetage du type décrit ci-dessus, qui permet une seule position d'encliquetage pour chaque rotation et qui peut être monté par conséquent dans un pare-soleil pour positive snap-action type of the type described above, which allows a single latching position for each rotation and which can be mounted therefore in a sun visor for

Pour ce faire, selon l'invention, l'organe élastique comporte au moins deux bras disposés l'un à proximité de l'autre, enserrant l'axe entre eux, au moins un des bras étant élastique et exerçant une pression contre l'axe dans ladite partie et au moins un des bras étant en contact-.avec l'axe à côté de ladite partie. To do this, according to the invention, the elastic member comprises at least two arms arranged one close to the other, enclosing the axis between them, at least one arm being elastic and exerting a pressure against the axis in said portion and at least one of the arms being in contact with the axis adjacent said portion.
Une forme d'exécution de la présente invention est dé- One embodiment of the present invention is

la figure 5 est une vue en plan d'un pare-soleil. Figure 5 is a plan view of a sun visor.
Sur la figure i on voit un organe élastique l constitué d'une plaque élastique, dans laquelle sont pratiquées des fentes pour réaliser des bras élastiques 2 et 3. Les bras 2 se situent dans le plan de la plaque- tandis que les bras 3 sont pliés et FIG. 1 shows an elastic member 1 consisting of an elastic plate, in which slots are made to produce elastic arms 2 and 3. The arms 2 are located in the plane of the plate while the arms 3 are folded and

Les figures 3 et 4 représentent l'organe élastique l monté sur une extrémité d'axe 5 qui comporte trois rainures transversales 6 et une rainure périphérique 7. Dans la position représentée, trois des bras 2 s'emboîtent dans des rainures individuelles 6, tandis que le quatrième bras 2 s'emboîte dans la rainure 7 pour immobiliser l'organe élastique l dans le sens Figures 3 and 4 show the resilient member 1 mounted on an end of axis 5 which has three transverse grooves 6 and a peripheral groove 7. In the position shown, three of the arms 2 fit into individual grooves 6, while that the fourth arm 2 fits into the groove 7 to immobilize the elastic member 1 in the direction

Les parties courbes 4 des bras 3 enserrent les parties circulaires 8 de'l'axe-5 à côté des rainures 7, ce qui assure par conséquent une-seule position d'encliquetage pour chaque rotation, c'està-dire lorsque les bras 2 s'elTboîtent -dans la rainure 6. Axially on the axis 1. The curved portions 4 of the arms 3 enclose the circular parts 8 of'axe-5 next to the grooves 7, which therefore ensures a single-click position for each rotation, c ' that is, when the arms 2 extend into the groove 6.
