Poste de conduite modulaire pour véhicule
L'invention concerne un poste de conduite de véhicule comprenant une poutre rigide allongée sensiblement du côté gauche au côté droit du véhicule et solidement ancrée à la carrosserie de celui-c, et un composant lié à ladite poutre et définissant une surface supérieure du poste de conduite, le poste de conduite étant propre à supporter au moins en partie une installation de chauffage/ventilation ou de climatisation de l'habitacle du véhicule, et présentant des évidements pour loger au moins en partie des équipements de bord et/ou des organes de commande, et des conduites y étant ménagées pour amener à des endroits appropriés de l'habitacle de l'air traité par ladite installation.Modular operator station for vehicle
The invention relates to a vehicle operating station comprising a rigid beam elongated substantially from the left side to the right side of the vehicle and firmly anchored to the body thereof, and a component linked to said beam and defining an upper surface of the driving, the driving position being able to support at least part of a heating / ventilation or air conditioning installation of the passenger compartment of the vehicle, and having recesses to house at least part of the on-board equipment and / or the control, and pipes being formed therein to bring to suitable places in the passenger compartment air treated by said installation.
Dans un poste de conduite connu de ce genre, la poutre est un simple renfort métallique, ce dernier formant la structure du poste de conduite, et la face supérieure du composant précité constitue la planche de bord. La poutre représente donc un poids mort.In a known driving position of this kind, the beam is a simple metal reinforcement, the latter forming the structure of the driving position, and the upper face of the aforementioned component constitutes the dashboard. The beam therefore represents a dead weight.
Le but de l'invention est de conférer à la poutre des fonctions supplémentaires.The object of the invention is to give the beam additional functions.
L'invention vise notamment un poste de conduite du genre défini en introduction, et prévoit que la poutre est creuse et définit au moins en partie lesdites conduites, et que ledit composant est un simple panneau décoratif rapporté sur la poutre.The invention relates in particular to a driving station of the kind defined in the introduction, and provides that the beam is hollow and at least partially defines said pipes, and that said component is a simple decorative panel attached to the beam.
Outre l'intégration des conduites d'air à la poutre, l'invention permet de stocker, pour un type de véhicule donné, un seul type de poutre, ainsi que des panneaux décoratifs de styles différents, dont le poids et l'encombrement sont réduits.In addition to integrating the air ducts with the beam, the invention makes it possible to store, for a given type of vehicle, a single type of beam, as well as decorative panels of different styles, the weight and size of which are reduced.
Des caractéristiques optionnelles de l'invention, complémentaires ou alternatives, sont énoncées ci-après: - La poutre creuse comprend un tronc s'étendant transversalement du côté gauche au côté droit du véhicule et trois branches s'étendant vers l'arrière du véhicule à partir des extrémités gauche et droite et du milieu du tronc respectivement, les trois branches communiquant avec le tronc et leurs extrémités arrière ouvertes constituant des sorties d'air vers l'habitacle, et les branches gauche et droite étant séparées de la branche complémentaire médiane respectivement par des évidements gauche et droit sensiblement de mêmes dimensions, dont chacun est propre à recevoir certains équipements de bord et/ou organes de commande selon que le véhicule est à conduite à gauche ou à droite.Optional, complementary or alternative features of the invention are set out below: - The hollow beam comprises a trunk extending transversely from the left side to the right side of the vehicle and three branches extending towards the rear of the vehicle to from the left and right ends and the middle of the trunk respectively, the three branches communicating with the trunk and their open rear ends constituting air outlets to the passenger compartment, and the left and right branches being separated from the complementary middle branch respectively by left and right recesses of substantially the same dimensions, each of which is suitable for receiving certain on-board equipment and / or control members depending on whether the vehicle is driving on the left or on the right.
- La poutre creuse comprend des demi-coquilles supérieure et inférieure en matière plastique moulée, mutuellement assemblées de manière étanche à l'air. - The hollow beam comprises upper and lower half-shells of molded plastic, mutually assembled in an airtight manner.
- L'une au moins des demi-coquilles supérieure et inférieure est surmoulée sur un renfort métallique.- At least one of the upper and lower half-shells is overmolded on a metal reinforcement.
- La poutre creuse comporte au moins une cloison interne séparant l'une de l'autre deux conduites d'air. ledit panneau décoratif comporte des grilles et/ou des organes de réglage recouvrant des sorties d'air de la poutre creuse.- The hollow beam has at least one internal partition separating one from the other two air ducts. said decorative panel comprises grids and / or adjustment members covering air outlets from the hollow beam.
Les caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention seront exposés plus en détail dans la description ci-après, en se référant aux dessins annexés, sur lesquels: - la figure 1 est une vue en perspective éclatée montrant un poste de conduite de véhicule automobile selon l'invention et des appareillages et accessoires venant se fixer sur celuici; - la figure 2 est une vue en perspective éclatée montrant une partie des éléments illustrés sur la figure 1; - la figure 3 est une vue en coupe transversale de la poutre creuse; - les figures 4 à 6 sont des vues en perspective de différents modes de réalisation d'un habillage destiné à dissimuler la colonne de direction; et - les figures 7 et 8 sont des vues de face de différents modes de réalisation d'un panneau médian équipé.The characteristics and advantages of the invention will be explained in more detail in the description below, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which: - Figure 1 is an exploded perspective view showing a driving position of a motor vehicle according to the invention and apparatuses and accessories coming to be fixed on this one; - Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view showing part of the elements illustrated in Figure 1; - Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of the hollow beam; - Figures 4 to 6 are perspective views of different embodiments of a covering intended to conceal the steering column; and - Figures 7 and 8 are front views of different embodiments of an equipped middle panel.
Comme on le voit sur les figures 1 et 2, le poste de conduite comprend une poutre creuse 1 destinée à être ancrée à la carrosserie du véhicule. La poutre 1 présente une forme générale en E comportant un tronc 2 allongé dans la direction transversale du véhicule et s'étendant du côté gauche au côté droit de celui-ci, et trois branches 3, 4 et 5 s'étendant vers l'arrière du véhicule à partir des extrémités gauche et droite et du milieu du tronc 2 respectivement.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2, the driving position comprises a hollow beam 1 intended to be anchored to the body of the vehicle. The beam 1 has a general shape in E comprising a trunk 2 elongated in the transverse direction of the vehicle and extending from the left side to the right side thereof, and three branches 3, 4 and 5 extending backwards of the vehicle from the left and right ends and the middle of the trunk 2 respectively.
Comme on le voit particulièrement sur la figure 3, qui est une coupe transversale du tronc 2 par un plan vertical passant entre les branches 4 et 5, la poutre 1 est formée d'une demi-coquille supérieure 6 et d'une demi-coquille inférieure 7 en matière plastique moulée. Chacune de ces deux demi-coquilles présente un fond 8 ici sensiblement horizontal, mais pouvant en variante présenter un profil curviligne, et deux parois latérales verticales opposées 9, 10 terminées par des rebords respectifs 11, 12 tournés vers l'extérieur de la poutre. Les fonds 8 et les parois latérales 9, 10 définissent ensemble un profil ici sensiblement rectangulaire, en variante circulaire ou ovale, délimitant une cavité interne qui est subdivisée en deux canaux 13 et 14 par une cloison longitudinale verticale. Cette cloison est elle-même formée par deux nervures verticales 15, 16 s'étendant respectivement vers le bas et vers le haut à partir des fonds 8 de la demicoquille supérieure 6 et de la demi-coquille inférieure 7.As seen particularly in Figure 3, which is a cross section of the trunk 2 by a vertical plane passing between the branches 4 and 5, the beam 1 is formed of an upper half-shell 6 and a half-shell lower 7 in molded plastic. Each of these two half-shells has a bottom 8 here substantially horizontal, but which may alternatively have a curvilinear profile, and two opposite vertical side walls 9, 10 terminated by respective flanges 11, 12 facing outwards from the beam. The bottoms 8 and the side walls 9, 10 together define a profile here substantially rectangular, in a circular or oval variant, delimiting an internal cavity which is subdivided into two channels 13 and 14 by a vertical longitudinal partition. This partition is itself formed by two vertical ribs 15, 16 extending downward and upward respectively from the bottoms 8 of the upper half-shell 6 and of the lower half-shell 7.
Les rebords 11 et 12 et le sommet de la nervure 15 sont liés de manière étanche à l'air aux rebords de la demi-coquille 7 et au sommet de la nervure 16, par exemple par soudage, dans un même plan de joint horizontal.The edges 11 and 12 and the top of the rib 15 are connected in an airtight manner to the edges of the half-shell 7 and to the top of the rib 16, for example by welding, in the same horizontal joint plane.
Les branches 3 à 5 présentent des sections transversales semblables à celle du tronc 2, le côté gauche de la branche gauche 3 et le côté droit de la branche droite 4 se raccordant au côté avant du tronc, formé par les parois 9, tandis que le côté droit de la branche gauche 3 et le côté gauche de la branche médiane 5 se raccordent à la partie située entre celles-ci du côté arrière, formé par les parois 10, du tronc, et que le côté droit de la branche 5 et le côté gauche de la branche 4 se raccordent également au côté arrière du tronc dans sa partie comprise entre ces deux dernières branches.The branches 3 to 5 have cross sections similar to that of the trunk 2, the left side of the left branch 3 and the right side of the right branch 4 connecting to the front side of the trunk, formed by the walls 9, while the right side of the left branch 3 and the left side of the middle branch 5 are connected to the part situated between them on the rear side, formed by the walls 10, of the trunk, and that the right side of the branch 5 and the left side of branch 4 are also connected to the rear side of the trunk in its part between these last two branches.
Les branches 3 à 5 sont également subdivisées en deux canaux par des cloisons longitudinales 17 qui se raccordent à la cloison 15, 16 de manière que les canaux qu'elles délimitent forment avec les canaux 13 et 14 un circuit de distribution d'air dans l'habitacle ayant la configuration souhaitée. En particulier, les canaux des branches 3 à 5 débouchent aux extrémités arrières de celles-ci pour former des aérateurs de l'habitacle et le cas échéant des bouches de dégivrage des vitres latérales, tandis qu'une fente 18 (figure 1) ménagée dans le fond 8 de la demi-coquille supérieure 6, le long du tronc 2, et communiquant avec le canal avant 13, forme une bouche de dégivrage du pare-brise.The branches 3 to 5 are also subdivided into two channels by longitudinal partitions 17 which are connected to the partition 15, 16 so that the channels which they delimit form with the channels 13 and 14 an air distribution circuit in the cabin with the desired configuration. In particular, the channels of the branches 3 to 5 open at the rear ends of the latter to form aerators for the passenger compartment and, where appropriate, defrost openings for the side windows, while a slot 18 (FIG. 1) made in the bottom 8 of the upper half-shell 6, along the trunk 2, and communicating with the front channel 13, forms a deicing mouth of the windshield.
Le circuit d'air formé par les canaux de la poutre communique par ailleurs, en amont, avec un boîtier de chauffage ou de climatisation 20, dans lequel est traité l'air à envoyer dans l'habitacle. Le boîtier 20 est montré sur la figure 1 dans sa position montée au-dessous de la poutre 1, et sur la figure 2 séparé de celle-ci. De même, une boite à fusibles 21 est représentée montée sous la poutre sur la figure 1 et séparée sur la figure 2.The air circuit formed by the channels of the beam also communicates, upstream, with a heating or air conditioning unit 20, in which the air to be sent into the passenger compartment is treated. The housing 20 is shown in Figure 1 in its mounted position below the beam 1, and in Figure 2 separated therefrom. Likewise, a fuse box 21 is shown mounted under the beam in FIG. 1 and separated in FIG. 2.
Le poste de conduite comprend en outre un panneau décoratif 22, qui peut être également en matière plastique moulée, destiné à être fixé sur la poutre 1 de manière à dissimuler en partie ou, comme ici, en totalité la face supérieure de celui-ci, formée par le fond 8 de la demi-coquille supérieure, et les aérateurs. La référence 23 désigne des grilles portées par le panneau 22, destinées à venir se placer en regard des aérateurs et qui peuvent être munies d'organes de réglage du débit et/ou de l'orientation des flux d'air.The driving position further comprises a decorative panel 22, which may also be made of molded plastic, intended to be fixed to the beam 1 so as to partially conceal or, as here, entirely the upper face thereof, formed by the bottom 8 of the upper half-shell, and the aerators. The reference 23 designates grids carried by the panel 22, intended to be placed facing the aerators and which may be provided with members for adjusting the flow rate and / or the orientation of the air flows.
Le panneau 22 présente, en regard des évidements 30 et 31 formés par la poutre 1, entre les branches 3 et 5 et entre les branches 4 et 5, des échancrures respectives 32 et 33 qui, conjointement avec ces évidements, permettent de faire passer et/ou de loger certains équipements du véhicule. En particulier, la colonne de direction 34, avec les organes de commande qui l'accompagnent habituellement, passe dans l'évidement 30 situé à gauche de la branche 5. Toutefois, la poutre 1 et le panneau 22 sont symétriques par rapport au plan vertical longitudinal médian du véhicule de sorte que la colonne de direction 34 pourrait également être logée dans l'évidement 31 pour un véhicule à conduite à droite. Dans le cas présent, l'évidement 31 loge un autre équipement tel qu'un sac gonflable ou une boite à gants 35.The panel 22 has, opposite the recesses 30 and 31 formed by the beam 1, between the branches 3 and 5 and between the branches 4 and 5, respective notches 32 and 33 which, together with these recesses, make it possible to pass and / or to house certain vehicle equipment. In particular, the steering column 34, with the control members which usually accompany it, passes through the recess 30 situated to the left of the branch 5. However, the beam 1 and the panel 22 are symmetrical with respect to the vertical plane longitudinal center of the vehicle so that the steering column 34 could also be housed in the recess 31 for a right-hand drive vehicle. In the present case, the recess 31 houses other equipment such as an airbag or a glove box 35.
La figure 1 montre également un bouclier 36 muni d'un trou 37 pour le passage de la colonne de direction et destiné à dissimuler la région inférieure de celle-ci. La partie supérieure du bouclier 36 se raccorde au contour de l'échan- crure 32. De même, un couvercle 37 vient remplir l'échancrure 33 en se plaçant au-dessus de la boite à gants 35. Enfin, un caisson 38 présentant une face arrière décorative vient dissimuler le boîtier 20 tout en portant le tableau de commande 39 (figure 7) de l'installation de chauffage ou de climatisation. Comme montré sur la figure 7 et en variante sur la figure 8, le caisson 38 peut en outre porter, de manière non limitative, un auto-radio lecteur de cassettes 40, un lecteur de disques numériques 41, un écran de visualisation 42.Figure 1 also shows a shield 36 provided with a hole 37 for the passage of the steering column and intended to conceal the lower region thereof. The upper part of the shield 36 is connected to the contour of the notch 32. Similarly, a cover 37 fills the notch 33 by placing itself above the glove box 35. Finally, a box 38 having a decorative rear face conceals the box 20 while carrying the control panel 39 (Figure 7) of the heating or air conditioning system. As shown in FIG. 7 and as a variant in FIG. 8, the box 38 can also carry, without limitation, a car radio cassette player 40, a digital disc player 41, a display screen 42.
La figure 4 montre le volant de direction 45 du véhicule positionné à l'extérieur du bouclier 36. Contrairement au bouclier de la figure 4, dont la surface extérieure est entièrement convexe, celui de la figure 5 présente à sa partie supérieure une plate-forme horizontale 46 servant de vide-poches et entourée d'un rebord 47. Dans la variante de la figure 6, le bouclier 36 présente dans sa partie supérieure une ouverture 48 pour loger le cadran 49 du compteur de vitesse du véhicule.Figure 4 shows the steering wheel 45 of the vehicle positioned outside the shield 36. Unlike the shield of Figure 4, whose outer surface is fully convex, that of Figure 5 has at its upper part a platform horizontal 46 serving as storage pockets and surrounded by a rim 47. In the variant of FIG. 6, the shield 36 has in its upper part an opening 48 for housing the dial 49 of the vehicle speedometer.
Dans le mode de réalisation illustré, la demi-coquille inférieure 7 de la poutre 1 est surmoulée sur un profilé métallique de renfort 50, par l'intermédiaire duquel la poutre peut être vissée sur la carrosserie, et présente des nervures de raidissement 51 s'étendant au-dessous du fond 8, selon des plans verticaux orientés avant-arrière.In the illustrated embodiment, the lower half-shell 7 of the beam 1 is molded onto a reinforcing metal profile 50, by means of which the beam can be screwed onto the bodywork, and has stiffening ribs 51 s' extending below the bottom 8, according to vertical planes oriented front-rear.
La description ci-dessus et les dessins joints illustrent, à titre d'exemple, quelques unes seulement des possibilités d'aménagements illimitées permises par le poste de conduite selon l'invention.The above description and the accompanying drawings illustrate, by way of example, only some of the unlimited possibilities of arrangements permitted by the driving position according to the invention.
Le panneau formant planche de bord et les divers équipements et accessoires peuvent être fixés sur la poutre creuse par tout moyen connu, notamment par vissage ou par encliquetage. The dashboard panel and the various equipment and accessories can be fixed to the hollow beam by any known means, in particular by screwing or snap-fastening.
