Description
L'invention concerne un dispositif intégré de pilotage d'un véhiculeThe invention relates to an integrated vehicle control device
automobile, ainsi qu'un véhicule automobile équipé de ce dispositif de pilotage. automobile, as well as a motor vehicle equipped with this control device.
De manière à augmenter l'espace disponible pour le conducteur dans l'habitacle d'un véhicule automobile, il est souhaitable, aujourd'hui, de regrouper 5 les différents organes de pilotage du véhicule automobile dans un seul et même dispositif de faible encombrement. Plus précisément, il est souhaitable par exemple de regrouper ensemble les organes de pilotage des systèmes de freinage, d'accélération et de direction du véhicule automobile. Actuellement, ces systèmes sont respectivement pilotés au moyen de pédales de frein et 10 d'accélération, ainsi qu'au moyen d'un volant de direction du véhicule. De plus, un tel dispositif, intégrant différents organes de pilotage du véhicule, doit être robuste et manoeuvrable par le conducteur à l'aide d'une seule main pour réduire l'espace occupé dans l'habitacle. In order to increase the space available for the driver in the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, it is desirable today to group the various control members of the motor vehicle in a single and compact device. More specifically, it is desirable, for example, to group together the control members of the braking, acceleration and steering systems of the motor vehicle. Currently, these systems are respectively controlled by means of brake and acceleration pedals, as well as by means of a vehicle steering wheel. In addition, such a device, integrating different control members of the vehicle, must be robust and maneuverable by the driver with one hand to reduce the space occupied in the passenger compartment.
L'invention vise à satisfaire ce besoin en proposant un dispositif de 15 pilotage d'un véhicule automobile manoeuvrable à l'aide d'une seule main et ayant un haut degré d'intégration. The invention aims to satisfy this need by proposing a device for controlling a motor vehicle which can be operated with one hand and having a high degree of integration.
L'invention a donc pour objet un dispositif intégré de pilotage d'un véhicule automobile, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte: - une première articulation pivotante formée d'une première partie fixe 20 solidaire de la structure du véhicule automobile, et d'une première partie pivotante autour d'un premier axe solidaire de ladite première partie fixe, - une deuxième articulation pivotante qui définit un deuxième axe de pivotement non colinéaire avec ledit premier axe et solidaire de ladite première partie pivotante, cette deuxième articulation comportant une deuxième partie 25 pivotante autour dudit deuxième axe, cette deuxième partie pivotante formant support pour un pivot, et - un manche formant moyen de préhension pour une main du conducteur, une première extrémité de ce manche étant montée à rotation autour dudit pivot. The invention therefore relates to an integrated device for controlling a motor vehicle, characterized in that it comprises: - a first pivoting articulation formed by a first fixed part 20 secured to the structure of the motor vehicle, and a first part pivoting around a first axis integral with said first fixed part, - a second pivoting articulation which defines a second pivot axis not collinear with said first axis and integral with said first pivoting part, this second articulation comprising a second part 25 pivoting around said second axis, this second pivoting part forming a support for a pivot, and - a handle forming a gripping means for a hand of the driver, a first end of this handle being rotatably mounted around said pivot.
Le dispositif ci-dessus présente trois degrés de liberté en rotation, respectivement autour des premier et deuxième axes de pivotement, ainsi qu'autour du pivot supporté par la deuxième partie pivotante. Chacun de ces degrés de liberté peut donc être associé à une commande de pilotage du véhicule automobile indépendante des autres. The above device has three degrees of freedom in rotation, respectively around the first and second pivot axes, as well as around the pivot supported by the second pivoting part. Each of these degrees of freedom can therefore be associated with a control command of the motor vehicle independent of the others.
De plus, puisque le manche est supporté par deux articulations ayant des axes de pivotement non colinéaires, il est possible de le basculer autour de 5 ces deux axes et donc de fixer la position angulaire des parties pivotantes de ces deux articulations en manoeuvrant uniquement ce manche. Enfin, le conducteur peut tourner le manche sur lui-même. Ainsi, ce dispositif permet au conducteur, en manoeuvrant uniquement le manche d'une seule main, de fixer les positions du dispositif de pilotage autour de chacun des axes de rotation 10 indépendamment les unes des autres. Ce dispositif est donc apte à remplacer simultanément au moins trois organes de pilotage conventionnels du véhicule, tels que par exemple les pédales de frein et d'accélération ainsi que le volant de direction. En effet, bien que regroupant les fonctions de trois organes de pilotage conventionnels en un seul et même dispositif manoeuvrable d'une 15 seule main, ces trois fonctions restent commandables indépendamment les unes des autres. Furthermore, since the handle is supported by two articulations having non-collinear pivot axes, it is possible to tilt it around these two axes and therefore to fix the angular position of the pivoting parts of these two articulations by operating only this handle. . Finally, the driver can turn the handle on himself. Thus, this device allows the driver, by maneuvering only the handle with one hand, to fix the positions of the control device around each of the axes of rotation 10 independently of each other. This device is therefore able to simultaneously replace at least three conventional control members of the vehicle, such as for example the brake and acceleration pedals as well as the steering wheel. Indeed, although grouping the functions of three conventional control bodies in one and the same device which can be operated with one hand, these three functions remain controllable independently of one another.
Suivant d'autres caractéristiques du dispositif conforme à l'invention il comporte un calculateur et un frein magnéto-réhologique associé à ladite première partie pivotante de manière à freiner les déplacements de la 20 première partie pivotante sous la commande du calculateur; - il comporte une troisième articulation pivotante comportant une troisième partie pivotante montée sur le manche, cette troisième partie pivotante formant une gâchette déplaçable par un doigt du conducteur; - il comporte au moins un bouton-poussoir monté sur une surface 25 voisine de l'extrémité libre du manche; - il comporte un capteur de position de la partie pivotante associé à chacune des articulations pivotantes de manière à mesurer la position angulaire de la partie pivotante de cette articulation; - le capteur de position de la deuxième partie pivotante est un capteur 30 d'efforts; - il comporte un capteur de la position angulaire du manche autour dudit pivot; - il comporte un organe de rappel apte à exercer une force de rappel sur la partie pivotante associée à chacune des articulations pivotantes de manière à solliciter la partie pivotante vers une position de repos; - il comporte un organe de rappel apte à déplacer le manche en 5 rotation autour dudit pivot de manière à solliciter ce manche vers une position angulaire de repos. According to other characteristics of the device according to the invention, it comprises a computer and a magneto-rehological brake associated with said first pivoting part so as to slow down the displacements of the first pivoting part under the control of the computer; - It comprises a third pivoting articulation comprising a third pivoting part mounted on the handle, this third pivoting part forming a trigger displaceable by a finger of the driver; - It comprises at least one push button mounted on a surface 25 close to the free end of the handle; - It includes a position sensor of the pivoting part associated with each of the pivoting joints so as to measure the angular position of the pivoting part of this joint; - The position sensor of the second pivoting part is a force sensor 30; - It includes a sensor for the angular position of the handle around said pivot; - It comprises a return member capable of exerting a return force on the pivoting part associated with each of the pivoting joints so as to urge the pivoting part towards a rest position; - It comprises a return member capable of moving the handle in rotation around said pivot so as to urge this handle towards an angular position of rest.
L'invention a également pour objet un véhicule automobile, caractérisé en ce qu'il est équipé d'un dispositif de pilotage conforme à l'invention, disposé à droite et/ou à gauche du siège conducteur. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle, characterized in that it is equipped with a control device according to the invention, arranged to the right and / or to the left of the driver's seat.
Suivant d'autres caractéristiques du véhicule conforme à l'invention, l'axe de pivotement de la première articulation est parallèle à la direction de déplacement du véhicule automobile et en ce que l'axe de pivotement de la deuxième articulation est perpendiculaire à celui de la première articulation. According to other characteristics of the vehicle according to the invention, the pivot axis of the first articulation is parallel to the direction of movement of the motor vehicle and in that the pivot axis of the second articulation is perpendicular to that of the first joint.
L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description qui va 15 suivre, donnée uniquement à titre d'exemple, et faite en se référant aux dessins, sur lesquels: - la figure 1 est une vue de côté, partiellement en coupe suivant la ligne l-l de la figure 2, d'un dispositif de pilotage conforme à l'invention dont certaines parties sont représentées en coupe; - les figures 2 et 3 sont des vues en coupe du dispositif de la figure 1, prises respectivement suivant les lignes 11-Il et 111-111 de cette figure 1; et - la figure 4 est une vue à plus grande échelle de la partie IV de la figure 2. The invention will be better understood on reading the description which follows, given solely by way of example, and made with reference to the drawings, in which: - Figure 1 is a side view, partially in section along the following lines line II of FIG. 2, of a control device according to the invention, certain parts of which are shown in section; - Figures 2 and 3 are sectional views of the device of Figure 1, taken respectively along lines 11-II and 111-111 of this Figure 1; and - Figure 4 is an enlarged view of part IV of Figure 2.
Les figures 1 à 4 représentent, dans sa position de repos, un 25 dispositif de pilotage d'un véhicule automobile, désigné par la référence générale 2. Ce dispositif 2 est destiné à regrouper un grand nombre des fonctionnalités dévolues actuellement à des organes de pilotage du véhicule distincts et indépendants les uns des autres, dans un encombrement réduit. Il est actuellement envisagé d'équiper les véhicules automobiles de deux de ces 30 dispositifs 2, respectivement placés à droite et à gauche du siège conducteur. FIGS. 1 to 4 represent, in its rest position, a device for controlling a motor vehicle, designated by the general reference 2. This device 2 is intended to group together a large number of the functions currently assigned to steering bodies separate and independent from each other, in a small footprint. It is currently envisaged to equip motor vehicles with two of these 30 devices 2, respectively placed to the right and to the left of the driver's seat.
Le dispositif 2 comporte principalement deux articulations pivotantes 4, 6 et un pivot 8 sur lequel est monté à rotation un manche 10 formant poignée pour le conducteur. The device 2 mainly comprises two pivoting joints 4, 6 and a pivot 8 on which is rotatably mounted a handle 10 forming a handle for the driver.
L'articulation 4 est formée d'un ensemble 12 formant palier et d'un pivot 14. L'ensemble 12 comporte ici un frein magnéto-réhologique conventionnel 16 fixé rigidement à un support 18, lui-même soudé sur une platine inférieure 20 sensiblement horizontale, solidaire de la structure du 5 véhicule. Cette articulation 4 est fixée par rapport à la structure du véhicule de manière à ce que l'axe de rotation X-X de l'articulation 4 soit parallèle à la direction de déplacement du véhicule, et le pivot 8 sensiblement aligné, au repos, sur la verticale du véhicule. The articulation 4 is formed by an assembly 12 forming a bearing and a pivot 14. The assembly 12 here comprises a conventional magneto-rehological brake 16 rigidly fixed to a support 18, itself welded to a lower plate 20 substantially horizontal, integral with the structure of the vehicle. This articulation 4 is fixed relative to the structure of the vehicle so that the axis of rotation XX of the articulation 4 is parallel to the direction of movement of the vehicle, and the pivot 8 substantially aligned, at rest, on the vertical of the vehicle.
Le frein magnéto-réhologique est monté de manière à freiner la 10 rotation du pivot 14 sous la commande d'un calculateur électronique 26. Ce frein 16 est conventionnel et correspond par exemple à ceux vendus par la société Lord Corporation, Cary, NC 27511 USA, [email protected]. The magneto-rehological brake is mounted so as to brake the rotation of the pivot 14 under the control of an electronic computer 26. This brake 16 is conventional and corresponds, for example, to those sold by the company Lord Corporation, Cary, NC 27511 USA , [email protected].
On rappellera ici seulement qu'un tel frein magnéto-réhologique est équipé d'une chambre hermétique remplie d'un liquide magnétique, cette 15 chambre étant traversée de part en part par le pivot à freiner, ici le pivot 14. Ce liquide magnétique présente une viscosité qui est fonction de l'intensité d'un champ magnétique auquel il est soumis. Ainsi, pour freiner la rotation du pivot 14, le calculateur 26 commande une augmentation de l'intensité du champ magnétique auquel est soumis le liquide magnétique, ce qui augmente la 20 viscosité du liquide magnétique et freine la rotation du pivot 14. It will be recalled here only that such a magneto-rehological brake is equipped with a hermetic chamber filled with a magnetic liquid, this chamber being traversed right through by the pivot to be braked, here the pivot 14. This magnetic liquid has a viscosity which is a function of the intensity of a magnetic field to which it is subjected. Thus, to brake the rotation of the pivot 14, the computer 26 controls an increase in the intensity of the magnetic field to which the magnetic liquid is subjected, which increases the viscosity of the magnetic liquid and slows down the rotation of the pivot 14.
Un basculeur 30 est rigidement fixé à l'extrémité libre du pivot 14 de manière à permettre le basculement de gauche à droite du manche 10. Ce basculeur comporte trois palettes 32 qui font saillie en direction de la platine 20. A rocker 30 is rigidly fixed to the free end of the pivot 14 so as to allow tilting from left to right of the handle 10. This rocker has three paddles 32 which project towards the plate 20.
Ces palettes 32 sont destinées à coopérer avec un système d'amortissement 25 34 représenté en coupe suivant la ligne de coupe 111-111 sur la figure 3. These pallets 32 are intended to cooperate with a damping system 25 34 shown in section along the section line 111-111 in FIG. 3.
Ce système d'amortissement 34 comporte deux pistons 38, 39 montés déplaçables en translation dans une direction perpendiculaire à l'axe du pivot 14. A cet effet, chaque piston 38, 39 est monté à coulissement sur une tige centrale 40 de guidage. Les déplacements des pistons en translation sont 30 limités de chaque côté par des plaques 44, 45 formant butée et fixées rigidement à la platine 20. This damping system 34 comprises two pistons 38, 39 mounted movable in translation in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the pivot 14. For this purpose, each piston 38, 39 is slidably mounted on a central guide rod 40. The displacements of the pistons in translation are limited on each side by plates 44, 45 forming a stop and rigidly fixed to the plate 20.
L'espacement entre ces plaques 44 et 45 définit le débattement angulaire a de gauche à droite du manche 10. aE est, par exemple, supérieur à 250. The spacing between these plates 44 and 45 defines the angular movement a from left to right of the handle 10. aE is, for example, greater than 250.
L'extrémité de l'une des tiges de guidage 40 est fixée à la plaque 44 5 par l'intermédiaire d'un manchon borgne 46, tandis que l'extrémité opposée de l'autre tige est fixée de façon similaire à la plaque 45. The end of one of the guide rods 40 is fixed to the plate 44 by means of a blind sleeve 46, while the opposite end of the other rod is similarly fixed to the plate 45 .
Chaque piston 38, 39 comporte une extrémité montée à coulissement à l'intérieur d'une chemise cylindrique 48 traversant de part en part l'une des plaques formant butée et solidaire de cette plaque. L'autre extrémité de chaque 10 piston 38, 39 présente un rebord 50 faisant saillie vers l'extérieur du piston. Each piston 38, 39 has one end slidably mounted inside a cylindrical jacket 48 passing right through one of the plates forming a stop and integral with this plate. The other end of each piston 38, 39 has a flange 50 projecting outward from the piston.
L'une des faces de ce rebord est destinée à venir en butée contre la plaque 44, 45 correspondante, tandis que la face opposée sert de surface d'appui pour deux des palettes 32 du basculeur 30. Un perçage borgne 49 est ménagé à l'intérieur de chacun des pistons. One of the faces of this rim is intended to abut against the corresponding plate 44, 45, while the opposite face serves as a bearing surface for two of the pallets 32 of the rocker 30. A blind bore 49 is formed at the inside each of the pistons.
Les pistons 38, 39 sont montés tête-bêche, de sorte que l'ouverture du perçage borgne du piston 38 est tournée vers la plaque 44, tandis que l'ouverture du perçage borgne du piston 39 est tournée vers la plaque 45. Des ressorts 54, 55 sont montés respectivement dans chacun des pistons 38, 39 autour de la tige de guidage correspondante, en appui d'un côté sur le fond du 20 perçage borgne du piston et de l'autre côté sur le fond du manchon borgne 46 de fixation de la tige de guidage de ce piston. Ces ressorts 54, 55 sollicitent leur piston respectif 38, 39 dans des sens opposés et avec la même force, de manière à ramener, en l'absence de toute sollicitation extérieure, les palettes 32 vers une position de repos illustrée sur la figure 3 par la ligne en traits mixtes 25 58. Sur la figure 3, les pistons 38 et 39 sont représentés dans une position extrême dans laquelle le piston 38 est en butée sur la plaque 44. The pistons 38, 39 are mounted head to tail, so that the opening of the blind bore of the piston 38 is turned towards the plate 44, while the opening of the blind bore of the piston 39 is turned towards the plate 45. Springs 54, 55 are respectively mounted in each of the pistons 38, 39 around the corresponding guide rod, bearing on one side on the bottom of the blind blind bore of the piston and on the other side on the bottom of the blind sleeve 46 of fixing of the guide rod of this piston. These springs 54, 55 urge their respective piston 38, 39 in opposite directions and with the same force, so as to bring, in the absence of any external stress, the pallets 32 to a rest position illustrated in FIG. 3 by the dashed line 25 58. In FIG. 3, the pistons 38 and 39 are shown in an extreme position in which the piston 38 is in abutment on the plate 44.
Un capteur 62 de position angulaire est monté de manière à mesurer la position angulaire du basculeur 30 par rapport à la verticale. A cet effet, une partie mobile en rotation du capteur 62 est solidaire du basculeur 30, tandis 30 qu'une partie fixe du capteur 62 est montée sur un support 64 solidaire de la platine 20. An angular position sensor 62 is mounted so as to measure the angular position of the rocker 30 relative to the vertical. To this end, a part in rotation of the sensor 62 is secured to the rocker 30, while a fixed part of the sensor 62 is mounted on a support 64 secured to the plate 20.
A titre d'illustration, ce capteur 62 est raccordé à un dispositif électrique 63 de commande du braquage des roues du véhicule en fonction de la position angulaire délivrée par le capteur 62. By way of illustration, this sensor 62 is connected to an electrical device 63 for controlling the steering of the vehicle wheels as a function of the angular position delivered by the sensor 62.
Un perçage, traversant de part en part le basculeur 30, est réalisé 5 dans la partie supérieure de celui-ci. Dans ce perçage est fixé un pivot 70 monté qui fait partie de l'articulation 6. Ce perçage est réalisé dans un plan qui, au repos, est parallèle au plan général de la platine 20 et disposé au-dessus de l'axe du pivot 14. Dans ce plan, le perçage est réalisé dans une direction perpendiculaire à celle de l'axe du pivot 14, de sorte que l'axe y-y du pivot 70 10 est disposé perpendiculairement au pivot 14. A hole, passing right through the rocker 30, is made in the upper part thereof. In this hole is fixed a pivot 70 mounted which is part of the articulation 6. This hole is made in a plane which, at rest, is parallel to the general plane of the plate 20 and disposed above the axis of the pivot 14. In this plane, the drilling is carried out in a direction perpendicular to that of the axis of the pivot 14, so that the axis yy of the pivot 70 10 is arranged perpendicular to the pivot 14.
Un second basculeur 72 est monté à rotation sur le pivot 70, de manière à permettre des basculements du manche 10 d'avant en arrière. A cet effet, le pivot 8 est fixé sur ce basculeur 72, en saillie sur la face supérieure de celui-ci, de manière à ce que ce pivot 8 soit vertical lorsque le manche 10 est 15 au repos. A second rocker 72 is rotatably mounted on the pivot 70, so as to allow the handle 10 to tilt back and forth. To this end, the pivot 8 is fixed on this rocker 72, projecting from the upper face of the latter, so that this pivot 8 is vertical when the handle 10 is at rest.
Un capteur d'effort 76 est monté entre une biellette 78 et une lame verticale 80 formant ressort. Une extrémité de la biellette 78 est reliée à rotation au basculeur 72, via un pivot 73 parallèle au pivot 70, tandis que son autre extrémité est solidaire d'une première face du capteur 76. La face 20 opposée du capteur 76 est rigidement fixée à l'extrémité supérieure de la lame 80. L'extrémité inférieure de la lame 80 est solidaire du basculeur 30. Ce capteur 76 est apte à mesurer l'effort qu'exerce le conducteur sur le manche 10 pour basculer ce dernier soit vers l'avant, soit vers l'arrière. Cet effort est proportionnel à la position angulaire du basculeur 72 par rapport au basculeur 25 30. De plus, sous l'action de la lame 80, ce capteur 76 est apte à ramener le manche 10 dans sa position de repos. A force sensor 76 is mounted between a link 78 and a vertical blade 80 forming a spring. One end of the link 78 is rotatably connected to the rocker 72, via a pivot 73 parallel to the pivot 70, while its other end is secured to a first face of the sensor 76. The opposite face 20 of the sensor 76 is rigidly fixed to the upper end of the blade 80. The lower end of the blade 80 is integral with the rocker 30. This sensor 76 is able to measure the force exerted by the driver on the handle 10 to tilt the latter either towards front or back. This force is proportional to the angular position of the rocker 72 relative to the rocker 25 30. In addition, under the action of the blade 80, this sensor 76 is able to return the handle 10 to its rest position.
Le capteur d'effort 76 est ici raccordé à un dispositif électrique 77 de commande de l'accélération/décélération du véhicule automobile, de sorte que lorsque le manche 10 est penché vers l'avant le véhicule accélère, tandis que 30 lorsque le manche 10 est penché vers l'arrière le véhicule décélère. The force sensor 76 is here connected to an electrical device 77 for controlling the acceleration / deceleration of the motor vehicle, so that when the handle 10 is tilted forward the vehicle accelerates, while 30 when the handle 10 is leaning backwards the vehicle decelerates.
L'extrémité de la lame 80 proche du capteur 76, passe à travers une ouverture 81 ménagée dans le basculeur 30. Le débattement de la lame 80 dans cette ouverture 81 définit la course maximale D d'avant en arrière du manche 10. D est par exemple supérieur à 25 . The end of the blade 80 close to the sensor 76, passes through an opening 81 made in the rocker 30. The movement of the blade 80 in this opening 81 defines the maximum stroke D from front to back of the handle 10. D is for example greater than 25.
Un fourreau 86 est emboîté et fixé sur le pivot 8. Le manche 10 est monté à rotation autour de ce fourreau 86. A sheath 86 is fitted and fixed on the pivot 8. The handle 10 is rotatably mounted around this sheath 86.
Un ressort hélicodal 88 est entouré autour du fourreau 86 et possède une extrémité solidaire de ce fourreau, tandis que son autre extrémité est solidaire du manche 10, de manière à ramener le manche 10 dans une position angulaire de repos autour du pivot 8 en l'absence de sollicitation par le conducteur. A helical spring 88 is surrounded around the sheath 86 and has one end secured to this sheath, while its other end is secured to the handle 10, so as to bring the handle 10 in an angular position of rest around the pivot 8 in the absence of solicitation by the driver.
Un capteur 90 de position angulaire est logé dans une cavité ménagée à l'intérieur du manche 10. La partie fixe de ce capteur 90 est alignée sur le pivot 8 et rigidement fixée au fourreau 86 au moyen d'une vis 92. La partie mobile de ce capteur 90 est fixée rigidement à l'intérieur de la cavité du manche 10, de manière à mesurer la position angulaire de la rotation du 15 manche 10 autour de l'axe 8. An angular position sensor 90 is housed in a cavity formed inside the handle 10. The fixed part of this sensor 90 is aligned on the pivot 8 and rigidly fixed to the sleeve 86 by means of a screw 92. The movable part of this sensor 90 is rigidly fixed inside the cavity of the handle 10, so as to measure the angular position of the rotation of the handle 10 about the axis 8.
A titre d'illustration, le capteur 90 est raccordé à un dispositif 91 de commande de l'allumage des phares du véhicule. By way of illustration, the sensor 90 is connected to a device 91 for controlling the ignition of the headlights of the vehicle.
L'extrémité supérieure du manche 10, comporte deux boutonspoussoirs 100 (dont un seul est représenté), ainsi qu'une gâchette 104 montée 20 à rotation autour d'un axe 106, horizontal au repos. The upper end of the handle 10 comprises two push buttons 100 (only one of which is shown), as well as a trigger 104 mounted 20 to rotate about an axis 106, horizontal at rest.
Les boutons-poussoirs 100 sont placés sur une surface arrière inclinée du manche 10, tandis que la gâchette 104 est placée sur une surface avant opposée à celle-ci. The push buttons 100 are placed on an inclined rear surface of the handle 10, while the trigger 104 is placed on a front surface opposite the latter.
Chaque bouton-poussoir est associé à un détecteur 110 25 d'enfoncement du bouton-poussoir correspondant logé à l'intérieur du manche 10. Each push button is associated with a sensor 110 25 for depressing the corresponding push button housed inside the handle 10.
Ces boutons-poussoirs sont respectivement raccordés à des dispositifs électriques 111 d'activation des clignotants droit et gauche du véhicule. These push buttons are respectively connected to electrical devices 111 for activating the right and left indicators of the vehicle.
La gâchette 104 est formée de deux flasques 112, 113 parallèles disposés chacun dans un plan vertical parallèle à l'axe du pivot 14. Ces deux flasques 112, 113 sont reliés par une face avant concave 114 destinée à recevoir un doigt du conducteur et sont solidaires d'un moyeu 116 monté à rotation autour de l'axe 106. The trigger 104 is formed of two parallel flanges 112, 113 each arranged in a vertical plane parallel to the axis of the pivot 14. These two flanges 112, 113 are connected by a concave front face 114 intended to receive a finger of the conductor and are integral with a hub 116 rotatably mounted about the axis 106.
Un ressort 118 de rappel de la gâchette 104 en position saillante, s'entoure autour du moyeu 116. Une extrémité de ce ressort 118 est en appui 5 sur une surface intérieure du manche 10, tandis qu'une autre extrémité de ce même ressort 118 est en appui sur la face 114 de la gâchette. A spring 118 for returning the trigger 104 in the projecting position, surrounds itself around the hub 116. One end of this spring 118 bears 5 on an inner surface of the handle 10, while another end of this same spring 118 is supported on the face 114 of the trigger.
Un capteur 122 de la position angulaire de la gâchette 104, est logé à l'intérieur du moyeu 116. Une partie fixe de ce capteur 122 est solidaire du manche 10, tandis que le corps mobile de ce capteur est solidaire de la 10 gâchette 104. A sensor 122 for the angular position of the trigger 104 is housed inside the hub 116. A fixed part of this sensor 122 is secured to the handle 10, while the movable body of this sensor is secured to the trigger 104 .
Finalement, une ouverture 124 est ménagée dans le manche 110 pour recevoir la gâchette 104 lorsque celle-ci est déplacée par le conducteur dans une position rétractée. Finally, an opening 124 is made in the handle 110 to receive the trigger 104 when the latter is moved by the driver in a retracted position.
Le capteur 122 est ici raccordé à titre d'illustration à un dispositif 123 15 propre à freiner le véhicule proportionnellement à l'enfoncement de la gâchette 104 à l'intérieur du manche 10. The sensor 122 is here connected by way of illustration to a device 123 suitable for braking the vehicle in proportion to the sinking of the trigger 104 inside the handle 10.
Le fonctionnement du dispositif 2 va maintenant être décrit à l'aide des figures 1 à 4. The operation of the device 2 will now be described with the aid of FIGS. 1 to 4.
En l'absence de sollicitation par le conducteur, le manche 10 est 20 maintenu en position verticale par le système d'amortissement 34, et par la lame 80. In the absence of stress from the driver, the handle 10 is held in a vertical position by the damping system 34, and by the blade 80.
Ensuite, lors de l'utilisation de ce dispositif 2, l'articulation 4 permet au conducteur de basculer le manche 10 autour du pivot 14 de droite à gauche et vice-versa. Lors d'une telle manoeuvre, le déplacement angulaire a du 25 basculeur 30 est mesuré par le capteur 62 et transmis, par exemple, au dispositif électrique de commande du braquage des roues du véhicule qui, en réponse, braque les roues du véhicule d'un angle correspondant. Then, when using this device 2, the articulation 4 allows the driver to tilt the handle 10 around the pivot 14 from right to left and vice versa. During such an operation, the angular displacement a of the rocker 30 is measured by the sensor 62 and transmitted, for example, to the electrical device for controlling the steering of the vehicle wheels which, in response, turns the wheels of the vehicle a corresponding angle.
De manière à simuler la résistance de la direction du véhicule, le calculateur 26 commande le frein magnéto-réhologique 16 en fonction 30 d'informations acquises sur les conditions de fonctionnement du système de direction et/ou les conditions de déplacement du véhicule. Par exemple, plus l'angle de braquage, commandé par le conducteur à l'aide du manche 10, est important, plus le calculateur 26 freine, de façon importante, la rotation du basculeur 30. In order to simulate the resistance of the vehicle steering, the computer 26 controls the magneto-rehological brake 16 as a function of information acquired on the operating conditions of the steering system and / or the conditions of movement of the vehicle. For example, the larger the steering angle, controlled by the driver using the handle 10, the more the computer 26 brakes the rotation of the rocker 30 significantly.
Lorsque le conducteur déplace le manche 10 dans le sens avantarrière, par exemple vers l'avant, le basculeur 72 pivote vers l'avant autour du 5 pivot 70. Cette rotation P vers l'avant du basculeur 72 est transformée par la biellette 78 en un mouvement de translation qui tire une extrémité du capteur 76 vers l'avant. Ainsi, en cas de déplacement du manche 10 vers l'avant, le capteur 76 est soumis à une force d'écartement entre, d'une part, la biellette 78 qui se déplace vers l'avant et, d'autre part, la lame 80 qui le tire vers l'arrière. When the driver moves the handle 10 in the front-rear direction, for example towards the front, the rocker 72 pivots forwards around the pivot 70. This rotation P towards the front of the rocker 72 is transformed by the link 78 into a translational movement which pulls one end of the sensor 76 forward. Thus, in the event of movement of the handle 10 forwards, the sensor 76 is subjected to a spacing force between, on the one hand, the rod 78 which moves forward and, on the other hand, the blade 80 which pulls it backwards.
De façon similaire, lorsque le conducteur bascule le manche 10 vers l'arrière, le capteur 76 est soumis à une force de compression entre la biellette 78 qui se déplace vers l'arrière et la lame 80 qui résiste à ce déplacement vers l'arrière. Similarly, when the conductor tilts the handle 10 backwards, the sensor 76 is subjected to a compressive force between the link 78 which moves backwards and the blade 80 which resists this rearward movement .
L'intensité de cette force est transmise par le capteur 76 au dispositif 15 électrique de commande de l'accélération/décélération du véhicule, qui agit en conséquence sur le moteur du véhicule. The intensity of this force is transmitted by the sensor 76 to the electrical device for controlling the acceleration / deceleration of the vehicle, which acts consequently on the engine of the vehicle.
De plus, dans l'exemple de mode de réalisation décrit ici, le conducteur commande l'activation des clignotants à l'aide des boutonspoussoirs 100, celle des phares en tournant le manche 10 autour du pivot 8, et 20 freine le véhicule automobile en enfonçant la gâchette 104 à l'intérieur de l'ouverture 124. Furthermore, in the exemplary embodiment described here, the driver controls the activation of the turn signals using push buttons 100, that of the headlights by turning the handle 10 around the pivot 8, and brakes the motor vehicle by pressing the trigger 104 inside the opening 124.
Le dispositif de pilotage 2 a été décrit ici dans le cas particulier o les capteurs 62, 76, 90, 122 sont respectivement associés à des dispositifs de commande du braquage des roues, de l'accélération/décélération du véhicule, 25 et du freinage du véhicule. En variante, ces capteurs sont associés chacun à d'autres dispositifs de commande du véhicule automobile. En particulier, le capteur 90 est en variante associé au dispositif de commande du braquage des roues du véhicule automobile à la place du capteur 62. The steering device 2 has been described here in the particular case where the sensors 62, 76, 90, 122 are respectively associated with devices for controlling the steering of the wheels, the acceleration / deceleration of the vehicle, and the braking of the vehicle. As a variant, these sensors are each associated with other motor vehicle control devices. In particular, the sensor 90 is alternatively associated with the device for controlling the steering of the wheels of the motor vehicle in place of the sensor 62.
