Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of friction dampers. More specifically, the present invention aims to improve the means described in document FR-A-2 697 881.
- a friction damper which uses: friction as a physical phenomenon of energy absorption,. buckling as a controlled device for loading the friction surfaces, and. a control device for charging the device.
- the device thus described in document FR-A-2 697 881 is very promising. However, it requires a relative displacement between the friction surfaces to allow the implementation of the friction. The response curve of such a device therefore exhibits two-stage charging. It is illustrated in FIG. 1.
- an initial loading phase has been represented under the designation "Phase 1", during the above-mentioned relative displacement, and under the designation “Phase 2", the nominal operating phase of the 'damper.
- Phase 1 which corresponds to the initial stroke necessary before any nominal operation, delays the operation of the damper.
- the embodiments presented in document FR-A-2 697 881 use buckles allowing the buckling which act between a shaft and a bore. These washers are notched by radial slots which open out alternately on their outer periphery and their inner periphery. They have a generally conical geometry when the shock absorber is at rest. The initial geometry of this rest position conditions the proper functioning of the shock absorber.
- the object of the present invention is to propose a new concept of friction damper which makes it possible to overcome these two difficulties, that is to say which makes it possible to avoid a damper response delayed by an initial setting stroke. load, and moreover which makes it possible to reduce the manufacturing cost compared to the arrangements described in document FR-A-2 697 881.
- This object is achieved in the context of the present invention by means of a friction damping device which comprises: . at least two sets capable of relative guided movement, one linked to a fixed reference, the other mobile,. an intermediate member bearing against a first of the assemblies and capable of relative displacement relative to this first assembly, with friction, under the effect of an applied force,. elastic means which act on the intermediate member, characterized in that
- the elastic means urge said intermediate member to rest on the first assembly
- the device further comprises control means disposed between the intermediate member and the second set such that in a first direction of relative movement between the two sets, the relative movement between them is braked by a friction force defined by the elastic means, while in the second direction of relative movement between the two assemblies, the control means act on the elastic means to modify the force exerted on the intermediate member.
- the elastic means are supported between two separate areas of the intermediate member.
- FIGS 2 and 3 There is shown in Figures 2 and 3 attached, a friction damping device according to the present invention.
- These figures show two assemblies 100, 200 capable of relative displacement, an intermediate member 300, elastic means 400 and control means 500.
- the two assemblies 100, 200 susceptible of relative and guided displacement are, one linked to one fixed reference, the other mobile.
- the assembly 100 is linked to the fixed reference and the assembly 200 is movable relative to the assembly 100 first cited.
- this provision is not imperative, if necessary, it can be envisaged that the assembly 200 is that linked to the fixed reference and the assembly 100 is mobile.
- the concrete embodiment of the two assemblies 100, 200 can be the subject of very numerous variant embodiments.
- the assembly 100 is formed of a tubular element 102, for example symmetrical of revolution about an axis 104. More precisely still, according to the representation given in FIG. 3 l 'tubular element 102 is closed at one end by a partition 106. As a variant, this can however be omitted. Furthermore, according to the representation given in FIG. 3, the tubular element 102 is provided on its second axial end with a second transverse partition 108 having a central through passage. According to the representation given in FIGS.
- the second assembly 200 is formed of a rectilinear rod 202 passing through the passage of the aforementioned partition 108 and thus guided in sliding along the axis 104 relative to the assembly 102.
- L 'intermediate member 300 is designed to bear against the assembly 100. It is capable of relative displacement relative to the latter, with friction, under the effect of a force applied by the elastic means 400.
- the intermediate member 300 can also be the subject of numerous variant embodiments. According to the particular and nonlimiting embodiment given in Figures 2 and 3 attached, this intermediate member 300 comprises a tubular sheath 302 disposed on the inside of the tubular element 102.
- the dimension of the external cross section of the intermediate member 300 is generally complementary to the dimension of the internal cross section of the tubular element 102.
- the tubular sheath 302 is preferably provided on one of these axial ends (directed towards the aforementioned partition 106) with a partition 304 transverse to the axis 104.
- the tubular sheath 302 is made of a material allowing a radial extension under the effect of the stress on the elastic means 400 for pressing the intermediate member 300 against the internal periphery of the tubular element 102.
- the tubular sheath 302 connected to the partition 304 may be provided with a plurality of cutouts or axial slots, that is to say parallel to the axis 104 allowing the above-mentioned deformation to bear against the internal surface of the tubular element 102 under the effect of the stress on the elastic means 400. More precisely still, it will be noted on examining FIGS. 2 and 3 appended that preferably, the tubular sheath 302 is provided on its outer surface over part of its length an extra thickness
- the intermediate member 300 is provided with means making it possible to contain the elastic stressing means
- the intermediate member 300 is also provided with means 310 making it possible to limit the displacement relative between the intermediate member 300 and the control means 500 associated with the assembly 200.
- the latter means are formed by an annular rib 310 projecting on the internal surface of the tubular sheath 302 at its opening contour opposite the partition 304.
- the control means 500 are arranged between the intermediate member 300 and the second assembly 200.
- control means 500 are adapted so that in a first direction of relative movement between the two assemblies 100 and 200, the relative movement between them being braked by a friction force defined by the elastic means 400, while in the second direction of relative movement between the two assemblies 100 and 200, the control means 500 act on the elastic means 400 for modifying the force exerted on the intermediate member 300. More precisely still, preferably, the control means 500 are formed by a plate 502 transverse to the axis 104 secured to an axial end of the rod forming the second set 200. The plate 502 has an external diameter at least slightly less than the internal cross section of the tubular sheath 302 but slightly greater than the internal diameter of the rib 310.
- the control means 500 further comprises a finger 504 to the extension extending beyond the plate 502, axially, along the axis 104, towards the elastic means 4 00.
- This finger 504 is likely to come to urge the means 400 when the assembly 200 is moved to the right according to the representation of FIGS. 2 and 3 to modify the force exerted by the elastic means 400 on the intermediate member 300, after cancellation of the game originally existing.
- the elastic means 400 allow the loading of the contact surfaces 302/102.
- These elastic means 400 can be the subject of numerous variant embodiments. They can be made up of a multitude of washers of various shapes as illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6 to allow the buckling of beams during assembly.
- FIG. 4 shows an embodiment of elastic washers in the shape of a cross with four branches.
- FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of elastic washers of circular geometry comprising a plurality of radial slots opening onto the outer periphery.
- Figure 6 an alternative embodiment of elastic washers formed of generally rectilinear blades perforated on their lateral edges.
- the elastic means 400 can also comply with the arrangements described in document FR-A-2697881.
- the device according to the present invention is completed by a return spring 600 which urges the plate 502 to rest against the rib 310 when at rest.
- this return spring 600 is a spiral spring interposed between the axially outer surface of the rib 310 and a rib 506 provided on the rod 202, on the side of the plate 502 opposite the finger 504. The operation of the device thus formed can now be described with reference to Figures 7 and 8.
- Figure 7 shows schematically the operation of the device when the second set 200 is moved to the right relative to the first set 100.
- Figure 8 shows the devices when the second set 200 is moved to the left relative to the first set 100.
- the second set 200 is pulled to the left with respect to the first set 100, the abutment of the plate 502 on the rib 310 guarantees the play existing between the finger 504 and the means elastic 400.
- the intermediate member 300 is then urged by the elastic means 400 which guarantee the pressurization of the tubular sheath 302 against the internal surface of the tubular element 102.
- the movement of the second assembly 200 is then accompanied by an effort friction brake.
- the spring 600 returns the system to the initial position.
- the resulting force curve is illustrated in Figure 9. Compared to the curve illustrated in Figure 1 according to the prior art, those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention makes it possible to eliminate any initial phase load capable of delaying the braking of the movement.
- the present invention is not limited to the embodiments previously described but extends to all variants in accordance with its spirit.
- the device according to the invention can give rise to numerous applications, for example damping the recoil of a firearm.
