La figure 5b représente une vue de dessus de l'ensemble formé par le boîtier de support 200 et par les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2 conforme à un mode de réalisation.The figure 5b represents a top view of the assembly formed by the support housing 200 and by the control and display means 1, 2 according to one embodiment.

On notera que dans cette vue, l'élément de support 20 est disposé sur l'élément de réception 10.Note that in this view, the support element 20 is arranged on the receiving element 10.

Ainsi sur cette figure, seules les excroissances 13a, 13b de l'élément de réception 10 sont visibles sur cette vue de l'ensemble comportant le boîtier de support 200 et les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2.Thus in this figure, only the protuberances 13a, 13b of the receiving element 10 are visible in this view of the assembly comprising the support housing 200 and the control and display means 1, 2.

La partie centrale 201 de l'élément de support 20 comporte une partie creuse 202 laissant visible l'écran tactile 1 des moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2, fixés sur l'élément de réception 10.The central portion 201 of the support element 20 comprises a hollow portion 202 leaving the touch screen 1 visible, the control and display means 1, 2 fixed to the receiving element 10.

La partie centrale 201 de l'élément de support 20 comporte en outre deux surfaces latérales 203a, 203b situées de part et d'autre de la partie creuse 202, c'est-à-dire situées de part et d'autre de l'écran tactile 1.The central portion 201 of the support member 20 further comprises two lateral surfaces 203a, 203b located on either side of the hollow portion 202, that is to say located on either side of the touch screen 1.

Dans l'exemple de réalisation décrit, l'élément de support 20 comporte des moyens de fixation conformés pour fixer le boîtier de support 200 à une surface d'un appareil électroménager.In the embodiment described, the support member 20 comprises fastening means shaped to secure the support housing 200 to a surface of a household appliance.

L'élément de réception 10 étant fixé à l'élément de support 20 et étant en outre verrouillé par les pièces verrou 30, les surfaces adhésives 204a, 204b permettent ainsi la fixation de l'ensemble comportant le boîtier de support 200 et les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2.Since the receiving element 10 is fixed to the support element 20 and is furthermore locked by the lock parts 30, the adhesive surfaces 204a, 204b thus enable the assembly comprising the support housing 200 and the means of control and display 1, 2.

On notera que les ergots 16 et les ressorts coniques 17 situés dans l'élément de réception 10 viennent suppléer les surfaces adhésives 204a, 204b dans le maintien dans le temps du boîtier de support 200 sous la plaque de cuisson 1001. Ainsi, si les surfaces adhésives 204a, 204b venaient à faire défaut dans le temps ou en raison de températures trop élevée, les ressorts coniques 17 assureraient le maintien en position du boîtier de support 200.It will be noted that the lugs 16 and the conical springs 17 located in the receiving element 10 supplement the adhesive surfaces 204a, 204b in the maintenance of the support housing 200 under the hob 1001. Thus, if the surfaces Adhesives 204a, 204b had to defect in time or because of too high temperatures, the conical springs 17 would maintain the position of the support housing 200.

On notera en outre, qu'en cas de panne ou de dysfonctionnement des moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2, le boîtier de support 20 peut être déverrouillé par le retrait de pièces verrou 30, l'extraction de l'élément de réception 10 pouvant ensuite être réalisée afin de remplacer les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2, l'élément de support 20 restant fixé à la surface de l'appareil électroménager, par exemple sous la plaque de cuisson 1001 de la table de cuisson 1000.It will further be noted that, in the event of failure or malfunction of the control and display means 1, 2, the support housing 20 can be unlocked by the removal of lock parts 30, the extraction of the receiving 10 can then be performed to replace the control and display means 1, 2, the support member 20 remaining attached to the surface of the appliance, for example under the cooking plate 1001 of the table cooking 1000.

La figure 6 représente une vue en perspective du montage ou démontage de l'ensemble conforme à l'invention.The figure 6 represents a perspective view of the assembly or disassembly of the assembly according to the invention.

Le montage est réalisé par l'insertion de ces excroissances 13a, 13b de l'élément de réception 10 dans les ouvertures 21 a, 21 b de l'élément de support 20, les excroissances 13a, 13b et les ouvertures 22a, 22b étant situées au niveau du bord avant 10a, 10b respectivement de l'élément de réception 10 et de l'élément de support 20.The assembly is carried out by the insertion of these protuberances 13a, 13b of the receiving element 10 into the openings 21a, 21b of the support element 20, the protuberances 13a, 13b and the openings 22a, 22b being located at the front edge 10a, 10b respectively of the receiving member 10 and the support member 20.

Ensuite, l'élément de réception 10, en particulier le bord arrière 10b de l'élément de réception 10 est rapproché du bord arrière 20b de l'élément de support 20, l'élément de réception 10 et l'élément de support 20 étant alors fixés entre eux par la coopération des reliefs 14a, 14b de l'élément de réception 10 avec les moyens de clipsage 23a, 23b et l'élément de support respectivement.Then, the receiving element 10, in particular the rear edge 10b of the receiving element 10 is brought closer to the rear edge 20b of the support element 20, the receiving element 10 and the support element 20 being then fixed together by the cooperation of the reliefs 14a, 14b of the receiving member 10 with the clipping means 23a, 23b and the support member respectively.

Finalement, les pièces verrou 30 sont insérées dans les pièces à glissière 24a, 24b, les pièces verrou 30 étant retenues par les moyens de rétention 25 des pièces à glissière 24a, 24b.Finally, the lock pieces 30 are inserted into the slide pieces 24a, 24b, the lock pieces 30 being retained by the retention means 25 of the slide pieces 24a, 24b.

A l'inverse, lorsque l'ensemble comportant le boîtier de support 200 et les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2 doit être démonté, par exemple pour remplacer les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2, les pièces verrou 30 sont retirées des pièces à glissière 24a, 24b en exerçant une action sur les deux ergots élastiques 31 a, 31 b de la pièce verrou 30 de sorte à les retirer des moyens de rétention 25 des pièces à glissière 24a, 24b.Conversely, when the assembly comprising the support housing 200 and the control and display means 1, 2 must be disassembled, for example to replace the control and display means 1, 2, the lock parts. 30 are removed from the slide pieces 24a, 24b by acting on the two resilient tabs 31a, 31b of the lock piece 30 so as to remove them from the retention means 25 of the slide pieces 24a, 24b.

Une fois la pièce verrou 30 retirée du boîtier de support 200, les éléments de clipsage 23a, 23b de l'élément de support 20 sont libérés respectivement des reliefs 14a, 14b de l'élément de réception 10, et les excroissances 13a, 13b de l'élément de réception 10 sont extraites respectivement des ouvertures 21 a, 21 b de l'élément de support 20.Once the lock piece 30 has been removed from the support housing 200, the clipping elements 23a, 23b of the support element 20 are released respectively from the reliefs 14a, 14b of the receiving element 10, and the protuberances 13a, 13b of the the receiving element 10 are respectively extracted from the openings 21a, 21b of the support element 20.

Ainsi, l'élément de réception 10 avec les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2 est séparé de l'élément de support 20, les moyens de commande et d'affichage 1, 2 pouvant être remplacés, pour ensuite être à nouveau fixé à l'élément de support 20, l'élément de support 20 étant resté fixé à la surface de l'appareil électroménager.Thus, the receiving element 10 with the control and display means 1, 2 is separated from the support element 20, the control and display means 1, 2 can be replaced, and then again attached to the support member 20, the support member 20 remained attached to the surface of the appliance.
