Description

Véhicule à conduite intérieure de faibles dimensions extérieures Inner vehicle with small external dimensions
La présente invention concerne la structure générale d'un véhicule inté¬ gralement carrossé destiné au transport d'une ou deux personnes dans le minimum d'encombrement extérieur.The present invention relates to the general structure of a fully integrated vehicle intended for the transport of one or two people in the minimum of external space.
II existe un grand nombre de modèles de véhicule de petites dimensions sur le marché actuel, en particulier les voiturettes de 49,9 cm3 de cylindrée mais toutes ont l'inconvénient d'avoir quatre roues porteuses ou au mini¬ mum trois, dont l'espacement est nécessairement de un mètre de façon à ce que l'équilibre du véhicule soit assuré pendant la marche, portant ainsi la largeur totale minimale à 1,20 m. Ces véhicules ont d'autre part un poids assez important et n'ont pas la maniabilité ni la nervosité souhai¬ tée du fait des pertes importantes provoquées par les frottements dus au nombre de roues et aux dispositifs mécaniques complexes.There are a large number of small vehicle models on the current market, in particular the 49.9 cm3 displacement carts, but all have the disadvantage of having four carrying wheels or at least three, including the spacing is necessarily one meter so that the balance of the vehicle is ensured during the walk, thus bringing the minimum total width to 1.20 m. These vehicles on the other hand have a fairly large weight and do not have the maneuverability or the nervousness desired due to the significant losses caused by friction due to the number of wheels and to complex mechanical devices.
Le véhicule selon l'invention permet un encombrement minimal car sa lar¬ geur maximale est de 0,85 m sur une longueur de 1,70 m grâce à deux stabi¬ lisateurs rétractables actionnés par les pieds du conducteur lorsqu'il le juge nécessaire pour maintenir l'équilibre de son véhicule, notamment à faible vitesse et à l'arrêt.The vehicle according to the invention allows a minimum size because its maximum width is 0.85 m over a length of 1.70 m thanks to two retractable stabilizers actuated by the driver's feet when he deems it necessary to maintain the balance of your vehicle, especially at low speed and when stationary.
Des dispositifs similaires dans l'arrière plan technologique ont été conçus, notamment en 1920 par Alfred Morgan qui avait imaginé des stabili¬ sateurs actionnés par un levier à main, système qui avait été repris dans d'autres brevets de la même période, mais qui présentait l'inconvénient d'une maneuvre difficile en n'utilisant pas les réflexes naturels de pose des pieds pour le maintien de l'équilibre sur un véhicule à deux roues. D'autre brevets plus récents, Jean Pillot en 1977 et Serge Grignard en 1979, font état de dispositifs de stabilisation actionnés par les pieds du conducteur pour l'abaissement de roues stabilisatrices mais à l'aide de systèmes hydrauliques complexes et en omettant le problème de la détério¬ ration possible de ces stabilisateurs dans le cas de heurt par contact bru tal des roues avec le sol pendant la marche.Similar devices in the technological background were designed, in particular in 1920 by Alfred Morgan who had imagined stabilizers actuated by a hand lever, a system which had been taken up in other patents of the same period, but which presented the disadvantage of a difficult maneuver by not using the natural reflexes of pose of the feet for the maintenance of balance on a vehicle with two wheels. Other more recent patents, Jean Pillot in 1977 and Serge Grignard in 1979, state stabilization devices actuated by the driver's feet for lowering stabilizing wheels but using complex hydraulic systems and omitting the problem of the possible deterioration of these stabilizers in the event of an impact by rough contact of the wheels with the ground during walking.
Le dispositif selon l'invention permet un développement des stabilisateurs de telle manière que d'une part ils effectuent un mouvement d'avant en arrière en se rétractant', afin d'éviter leur blocage au démarrage sur route en mauvais état, mais d'autre part ils s'écartent de l'axe du véhicule dans le même mouvement de manière à ce que le centre de gravité de l'ensemble se trouve toujours à l'intérieur de l'espace compris entre les roues porteuses et les stabilisateurs, quel que soit le gîte donné.The device of the invention allows development stabilizers so that on one hand they perform a back and forth movement by retracting 'to avoid their start- road in poor condition, but to on the other hand they deviate from the vehicle axis in the same movement so that the center of gravity of the assembly is always inside the space between the load wheels and the stabilizers, whatever the heel given.
La force d'appui provoquée par la pression volontaire des pieds du conducteur peut se faire soit directement sur les supports des stabilisateurs, soit par l'intermédiaire d'un levier démultiplicateur, (formule qui a été adoptée dans la description technique), permettant à tout moment au conducteur d'être entièrement maître du gîte de son véhicule et d'avoir ainsi une conduite identique à celle d'un cyclomoteur ou d'une motocyclette. Ce dernier point est particulièrement intéressant dans le cas de vent latéral car l'action sur le stabilisateur du côté opposé à ce vent permet au véhicule d'être en posi¬ tion adaptée par rapport à la route sans qu'il soit nécessaire d'agir sur la direction. De même dans les virages, le gîte donné au véhicule peut être gra- duellement dosé suivant la force que l'on applique au stabilisateur situé à l'intérieur de la courbe. Egalement, en cas de faussemanoeuvrenotamment lors¬ que l'inclinaison donnée au véhicule dans ion virage est insuffisante, le sta¬ bilisateur opposé au centre du virage peut être actionné pour contrebalancer la force centrifuge. Enfin le fait que les stabilisateurs se relèvent en s'écartant de l'axe du véhicule est particulièrement important car il permet à l'ensemble de rouler, même avec un gîte maximum, et au conducteur de rétablir progressivement l'équilibre par la simple pression du pied, qui est un réflexe naturel.The support force caused by the voluntary pressure of the driver's feet can be done either directly on the supports of the stabilizers, or by means of a reduction lever, (formula which was adopted in the technical description), allowing the driver at all times has full control over the heel of his vehicle and therefore has the same behavior as that of a moped or motorcycle. This last point is particularly interesting in the case of side wind because the action on the stabilizer on the side opposite to this wind allows the vehicle to be in a position adapted to the road without it being necessary to act. on direction. Similarly when cornering, the heel given to the vehicle can be gradually adjusted according to the force which is applied to the stabilizer located inside the curve. Also, in the event of a false maneuver particularly when the inclination given to the vehicle in a turn is insufficient, the stabilizer opposite the center of the turn can be actuated to counterbalance the centrifugal force. Finally the fact that the stabilizers are raised away from the vehicle axis is particularly important because it allows the whole to roll, even with a maximum heel, and the driver to gradually restore balance by simply pressing of the foot, which is a natural reflex.
Les roulettes des stabilisateurs qui entrent en contact avec le sol sont à sys¬ tème directionnel de manière à ne pas créer de vibrations ou contrecarrer les roues porteuses, mais elles peuvent être remplacées par des patins fixes pour la conduite sur routes enneigées.The rollers of the stabilizers which come into contact with the ground have a directional system so as not to create vibrations or counteract the carrying wheels, but they can be replaced by fixed pads for driving on snow-covered roads.
Les deux stabilisateurs peuvent être maintenus baissés à l'aide d'un levier agissant sur les leviers de démultiplication, à trois positions principales: position "route" avec libération totale du levier de démultiplication, position "parking" avec pression sur le levier de démultiplication gardant les stabilisateurs en position basse, y position "frein de secours" avec une action sur un cable relié à des freins situés au niveau des roulettes stabilisatrices.The two stabilizers can be kept lowered using a lever acting on the reduction levers, in three main positions: "road" position with full release of the reduction lever, "parking" position with pressure on the reduction lever keeping the stabilizers in the low position, y "emergency brake" position with an action on a cable connected to brakes located at the level of the stabilizing rollers.
La carrosserie de la présente invention possède des particularités sur le plan de la sécurité et de l'économie de matériaux. L'ensemble étant constitué de tubes métalliques et de matière plastique "poly¬ ester",pour les parties opaques, et "polycarbonate" pour les parties transpa¬ rentes, sur une forme générale ovoïde, offre le maximum de résistance aux choc d'une part du fait de la forme générale très difficilement compressible, mais d'autre part par l'utisation du "polycarbonate", matière incassable, qui est utilisée, entre autres, pour la protection des forces de police dans les mani¬ festations et pour la confection de casques de moto.The bodywork of the present invention has particularities in terms of safety and economy of materials. The assembly consisting of metal and plastic tubes "poly¬ ester", for the opaque parts, and "polycarbonate" for the transparent parts, on a generally ovoid shape, offers the maximum impact resistance of a on the one hand because of the general shape which is very difficult to compress, but on the other hand by the use of "polycarbonate", an unbreakable material, which is used, inter alia, for the protection of the police force in demonstrations and for the manufacture of motorcycle helmets.
Les côtés latéraux du véhicule sont formés chacun d'un cercle parfait dans lequel la moitié coulisse sur l'autre autour du centre du cercle, avec possi¬ bilité de blocage ou de déblocage à volonté de ces panneaux semi-circulaires par l'intermédiaire des poignées. Ce dispositif permet ainsi soit l'ouverture complète de chaque moitié de panneau circulaire sur les côtés pour l'accès, soit l'ouverture souhaitée sur un quartier de cercle pour l'aération de l'habi tacle, soit la fermeture complète avec étanchéité parfaite, car le blocage et le déblocage des portes se fait par serrage ou desserrage des panneaux semi- circulaires contre la structure. Sur le plan économie de matériaux, ce dernier point est important car un seul élément fait office de fenêtre et de porte.The lateral sides of the vehicle are each formed in a perfect circle in which half slides over the other around the center of the circle, with the possibility of blocking or unblocking these semi-circular panels at will via the handles. This device thus allows either the complete opening of each half of the circular panel on the sides for access, or the desired opening on a quarter of a circle for the ventilation of the cabin, or the complete closure with perfect sealing , because the doors are locked and unlocked by tightening or loosening the semi-circular panels against the structure. In terms of saving materials, this last point is important because a single element acts as a window and door.
La position du conducteur à l'intérieur du véhicule est identique à celle d'un pilote d'automobile de sport, à savoir que ses jambes sont allongées à l'avant et le corps légèrement penché vers l'arrière, les pieds reposant pendant la marche sur des cale-pieds placés de telle manière que les leviers de démulti¬ plication pour l'abaissement des roues stabilisatrices puissent être actionnés par le simple poids des pieds sans aucune fatigue possible.The driver's position inside the vehicle is identical to that of a sports car driver, namely that his legs are extended at the front and his body is slightly leaning back, his feet resting during the walking on toe clips placed in such a way that the levers for demulti¬ plication for lowering the stabilizing wheels can be actuated by the simple weight of the feet without any possible fatigue.
Des accessoires supplémentaires, tels que levier manuel de marche arrière, levier manuel de marche avant, ceinture de sécurité, appuie-tête, protection du volant de direction, ont été également conçus pour l'aménagement de ce véhicule.Additional accessories, such as manual reverse gear lever, manual forward gear lever, seat belt, headrest, steering wheel protection, have also been designed for the layout of this vehicle.
Il doit être enfin remarqué que la présente invention peut être adaptée sur un châssis classique de cyclomoteur ou de motocyclette sous réserve qu'il possède un cadre évidé dans sa partie centrale de façon à permettre l'assise du conducteur à cet endroit, tous les autres organes: direction, moteur, suspension, transmission, freins, allumage, démarreur électrique, ...etc... , . étant classiques. Ce dernier point est particulièrement important car il est possible d'utiliser certains produits de chaînes de cyclomoteursdu marché actuel sans modifications de structure de ces derniers. Pour l'industrialisation, le fait que le châssis de la motocyclette et celui de la structure de la carrosserie soient simplement reliés présente un inté¬ rêt certain car il permet de commencer immédiatement la fabrication en petit séries sans trop d'investissements parce que les procédés de fabrication de cette carrosserie sont simples, comme il pourra l'être vérifié dans la des¬ cription purement technique.Finally, it should be noted that the present invention can be adapted to a conventional chassis of a moped or motorcycle, provided that it has a hollowed-out frame in its central part so as to allow the driver to sit there, all the others. components: steering, engine, suspension, transmission, brakes, ignition, electric starter, ... etc ...,. being classic. This last point is particularly important because it is possible to use certain products of moped chains of the current market without structural modifications of these. For industrialization, the fact that the chassis of the motorcycle and that of the structure of the bodywork are simply connected presents a definite advantage because it allows to immediately start manufacturing in small series without much investment because the processes of manufacture of this body are simple, as can be verified in the purely technical description.

Cet éléme (15) est destiné à agir sur une roulette (16) vissée sur des pattes soudées sur la partie extérieure des bras (9) de manière retransmettre la force ap pliquée par le pied sur la pédale (14) au complexe de stabilisation, la rou¬ lette (16) étant légèrement penchée vers l'extérieur de manière à être à tou moment en contact avec la pièce (15). Le retour du bras métallique (10) est effectué automatiquement vers la position haute par l'intermédiaire d'un ress (17) axé sur la charnière.The stabilization device is broken down into two parts: on the one hand two hinges (9), welded on a tube connecting the fixing lugs (1) and (2) at an angle of 27 ° to the rear, with two arms in welded flat iron (10) intended to serve as a support for the stabilizing wheels, and on the other hand the reduction lever (11), composed of two flat steel arms available vertically, with a steel tube axis welded on the structure (12) with a central part - in solid steel tube fixed by two nuts (13), an ac tube to serve as a footrest at the front (14) and a flat iron slightly debilitated in the center (15), welded on two other tubes ensuring rigidity. This element (15) is intended to act on a caster (16) screwed onto legs welded to the outer part of the arms (9) so as to retransmit the force applied by the foot on the pedal (14) to the stabilization complex, the rou¬ lette (16) being slightly tilted outwards so as to be at all times in contact with the part (15). The return of the metal arm (10) is carried out automatically towards the high position by means of a spring (17) centered on the hinge.
Les roulettes (18) fixées sur les bras métalliques (10) sont de type directio nel, à axe horizontal décentré par rapport à l'axe vertical, ce dernier étant monté sur roulement à billes de façon à permettre la libre direction de ces roulettes. Afin toutefois de limiter la rotation de ces dernières autour de 1eur axe vertical, deux ressorts (19), avec une butée (20) sont axés de maniè à permettre ieur rotation sur 350° environ mais aussi à permettre leur relève ment parallèlement aux parois du véhicule. Au niveau de la fixation (2) de la carosserie sur le ch ssis, est soudé un tu (21), servant d'axe horizontal à un villebrequin (22) qui "actionné par l'une des mains du conducteur sur une branche extérieure (23) permet l'abaissement leviers de démultiplication (11). Trois crans d'arrêt sont disposés: position route (24), position parking (25) et position frein de secours (26) par actio sur deux cables de liaison avec des freins à patins disposés sur les rou stabiisatrices.The rollers (18) fixed on the metal arms (10) are of the directio nal type, with a horizontal axis off-center with respect to the vertical axis, the latter being mounted on ball bearings so as to allow the free direction of these rollers. In order, however, to limit the rotation of the latter around their vertical axis, two springs (19), with a stop (20), are oriented so as to allow their rotation about 350 ° but also to allow their lifting parallel to the walls of the vehicle. At the level of the fixing (2) of the bodywork on the chassis, a tu (21) is welded, serving as a horizontal axis to a crankshaft (22) which " actuated by one of the driver's hands on an external branch (23) allows the reduction of the reduction levers (11) .Three stop clicks are arranged: road position (24), parking position (25) and emergency brake position (26) by actio on two connecting cables with pad brakes on the stabilizing wheels.
La peau extérieure du véhicule est composée de deux matériaux: une partie supérieure entièrement transparente (27) de façon à permettre une visibilité totale et une partie basse opaque (28) réalisée en polyester.The exterior skin of the vehicle is made of two materials: an entirely transparent upper part (27) so as to allow total visibility and an opaque lower part (28) made of polyester.
La partie supérieure est réalisée par thermoformage autour de moules parfait ment calqués sur la structure métallique. Le pare-brise (29), les parois lat raies hautes (30) sont vissées sur la structure métallique qui est elle-même protégée à l'extérieur par du polyester et à l'intérieur par de. la mousse de polyuréthane pour amortir les chocs éventuels. Les deux portes latérales (31 sont réalisées dans le même matériau, galbées parfaitement régulièrement aut de l'axe central (32), ce dernier étant formé d'un cylindre creux (33). soudé au milieu de l'arceau (5), d'une poignée (34) pouvant pivoter à 180° sur ell même agissant ainsi sur un autre cylindre (35) vissé sur la porte (31) par l'intermédiaire d'une tringle articulée (36) et d'un ressort (37) permettant le rapprochement ou 1'éloignement de la porte par rapport à la structure su vant la position de la poignée. Des joints caoutchouc sur la périphérie des 5panneaux circulaires (4) permettent le blocage des portes ainsi que l'étan- chéité à l'eau et à l'air.The upper part is produced by thermoforming around molds perfectly modeled on the metal structure. The windshield (29), the high side walls (30) are screwed onto the metal structure which is itself protected on the outside by polyester and on the inside by. polyurethane foam to absorb any impact. The two side doors (31 are made of the same material, curved perfectly regularly around the central axis (32), the latter being formed by a hollow cylinder (33). Welded in the middle of the arch (5), a handle (34) which can pivot 180 ° on the same itself thus acting on another cylinder (35) screwed onto the door (31) by means of an articulated rod (36) and a spring (37 ) allowing the door to move closer or further away from the structure depending on the position of the handle. Rubber seals on the periphery of the 5 circular panels (4) allow the doors to be locked as well as the watertightness and air.
Une marche arrière a été conçue à l'aide d'un levier (38) rattaché à un cabl (39) permettant d'actionner un ergot métallique (40), coulissant sur un rail 0 (41) et ---/inscrivant dans la chaîne de transmission du moteur dans sa partie basse de façon à lui imprimer un mouvement inverse. Un ressort (42) oblige rail à être en position basse pendnt la marche normale du véhicule, et seul rotation latérale de la tête (43) du levier (38) permet le déblocage de ce afin d'éviter tout désordre, soit par la rupture du cable de transmiεsic-j> ( 5soit par une fausse manoeuvre pendant la marche. Une aide àla marche avant, dans le cas "d'un cyclomoteur de petite cylindrée, a également été conçue, p un levier (44) symétrique du précédent, avec undispositif classique de tran mission sur le pignon de la roue libre de la roue arrière, par cable et res Dans ce dernier cas la rotation latérale de la tête (45) de ce levier offre Diverses autres dispositions ont été conçues, notamment pour le montage et le démontage aisé de la carrosserie par rapport au-châssis, celle-ci pouvant êtr placée directement par dessus le cadre de la motocyclette, l'étanchéité au ni veau de la direction et des leviers démultiplicateurs étant assurée par des bandes de caoutchouc souple (46) . Le guidon, comprenant tous les organes de commande, freins, accélérateur ...etc.. est entouré par un volant fixe (47) recouvert de caoutchouc mousse et la sécurité à l'intérieur de l'habitacle es plus complètement assurée par l'apport d'un appuie-tête (48), qui peut être rabattu sur l'arrière pour servir de siège au passager, et par une ceinture d sécurité fixée sur les pattes de fixation (2) de la carrosserie sur le cadre. A reverse gear was designed using a lever (38) attached to a cable (39) allowing to actuate a metal lug (40), sliding on a rail 0 (41) and --- / registering in the engine transmission chain in its lower part so as to impart a reverse movement to it. A spring (42) forces the rail to be in the low position during normal vehicle operation, and only lateral rotation of the head (43) of the lever (38) allows the release of this in order to avoid any disorder, either by breaking transmiεsic-j> cable (5, either by a false maneuver during walking. A forward walking aid, in the case " of a small-displacement moped, has also been designed, p a lever (44) symmetrical to the previous one, with a conventional transmission device on the freewheel pinion of the rear wheel, by cable and res In the latter case the lateral rotation of the head (45) of this lever offers Various other provisions have been designed, in particular for the easy assembly and disassembly of the bodywork with respect to the chassis, the latter being able to be placed directly over the frame of the motorcycle, the sealing of the steering and the reduction levers being provided by flexible rubber bands (46). The handlebars, comprising all the control members, brakes, accelerator, etc. are surrounded by a fixed steering wheel (47) covered with foam rubber and the security inside the passenger compartment is more completely ensured by the provision of a headrest (48), which can be folded down on the rear to serve as a passenger seat, and by a seat belt fixed on the fixing lugs (2) of the bodywork on the frame.
