La presente invención, según se expresa en el enunciado de esta memoria descriptiva, se refiere a tapacubos para ruedas de vehículos, el cual está dotado en su reverso o cara posterior de unas proyecciones tubulares situadas de manera tal que, en su montaje sobre la correspondiente llanta de la rueda, se corresponden con los tornillos de fijación de ésta. Las proyecciones tubulares cuentan con una serie de lengüetas flexibles labiadas y forzadas por un elemento elástico de compresión, como puede ser un aro metálico, determinando en conjunto un medio de retención y enclavamiento del tapacubos, cuyo desmontaje requiere la extracción previa de los tornillos de fijación de la rueda.The present invention, as expressed in the set forth in this specification, refers to hubcaps for vehicle wheels, which is endowed on the back or face rear of tubular projections located in such a way which, when mounted on the corresponding wheel rim, is correspond to the fixing screws of this one. The tubular projections feature a series of flexible tabs labiated and forced by an elastic compression element, such as it can be a metal ring, together determining a means of retention and interlocking of the hubcap, whose disassembly requires the previous removal of the wheel fixing screws.
El objeto de la invención es proporcionar una pieza adicional aplicable al tipo de tapacubos referido, para conseguir un mejor centrado en el montaje, así como para mejorar la apariencia estética del tapacubos, ocultando las ranuras determinadas entre las lengüetas correspondientes a las proyecciones tubulares en las que precisamente se acopla ajustadamente la pieza adicional.The object of the invention is to provide a additional piece applicable to the type of hubcap referred to, for get a better focus on assembly as well as to improve the aesthetic appearance of the hubcap, hiding the grooves determined between the tabs corresponding to the tubular projections in which precisely fits tightly the additional piece.
En la Patente de Invención n° P-200102699, se describe un tapacubos que está constituido de tal manera que supone una solución sencilla y eficaz a determinados problemas e inconvenientes de las distintas formas de sujetarse un tapacubos a la correspondiente rueda del vehículo, para ocultar y proteger la parte externa de la llanta y el correspondiente buje en que monta la rueda.In the Invention Patent No. P-200102699, a hubcap is described that is constituted in such a way that it is a simple and effective solution to certain problems and inconveniences in different ways if a hubcap is attached to the corresponding vehicle wheel, to hide and protect the outside of the tire and the corresponding hub on which the wheel is mounted.
Concretamente, el tapacubos descrito en dicha Patente de Invención, presenta en su cara posterior una serie de proyecciones tubulares que se corresponden en posición con la ubicación de los tornillos de sujeción de la llanta, teniendo cada proyección una serie de lengüetas flexibles mediante las que se consigue la fijación a la cabeza del correspondiente tornillo.Specifically, the hubcap described in said Invention patent, presents on its back a series of tubular projections that correspond in position with the location of the rim bolts, each projection a series of flexible tabs by means of which get the fixation to the head of the corresponding screw.
Cada lengüeta presenta un labio interior con su frente inclinado de forma divergente hacia el borde externo, determinando un medio que permite el deslizamiento respecto de la cabeza del tornillo, hasta sobrepasar un resalte anular de éste, tras el cual se produce un enclavamiento por medio de un escalón con que al efecto cuenta la parte interna o posterior del labio.Each tongue has an inner lip with its front inclined divergently towards the outer edge, determining a means that allows sliding with respect to the screw head, until an annular projection of the latter is exceeded, after which an interlocking occurs by means of a step with which the internal or posterior part of the lip.
Los labios de las distintas lengüetas forman una virtual corona de retención, estando aquéllas ligeramente comprimidas conjuntamente mediante un elemento elástico, tal como un fleje o aro metálico de compresión.The lips of the different tongues form a virtual retention crown, being slightly compressed together by an elastic element, such as a strap or metal compression ring.
En dicha corona de lengüetas van intercaladas, al menos, dos lengüetas rígidas dispuestas en oposición diametral, en las que la parte interna de las mismas es lisa, es decir, carente del labio, estando externamente rigidizadas por un nervio radial que discurre perpendicularmente a la respectiva lengüeta fija.In said crown of tongues they are interspersed, when less, two rigid tabs arranged in diametral opposition, in which the internal part of them is smooth, that is, lacking of the lip, being externally stiffened by a radial nerve which runs perpendicularly to the respective fixed tab.
De esta manera, el montaje del tapacubos sobre la llanta de la rueda, una vez fijada ésta al buje mediante los tornillos, se efectuará enfrentando las proyecciones tubulares con los tornillos y realizando seguidamente una presión o empuje del tapacubos con el consiguiente deslizamiento de las cabezas del tornillo respecto de las proyecciones tubulares, hasta que el escalón posterior del labio de las lengüetas sobrepase el resalte anular de las cabezas de los tornillos, en cuyo momento y debido al aro elástico de compresión las lengüetas tienden a converger y se produce el enclavamiento entre el escalón del labio y el resalte de la cabeza del tornillo.In this way, the assembly of the hubcap on the wheel rim, once fixed to the hub by means of screws, will be made facing the tubular projections with the screws and then pressing or pushing the hubcaps with the consequent sliding of the heads of the screw with respect to tubular projections, until the rear step of the tongue of the tongues exceed the protrusion annular of the screw heads, at which time and due to the elastic compression ring the tabs tend to converge and will produces the interlocking between the lip step and the shoulder of The screw head.
Una vez montado el tapacubos se hace necesario extraer los tornillos para conseguir su desmontaje, evitando con ello la pérdida, robo, etc.Once the hubcap is assembled it becomes necessary remove the screws to get their disassembly, avoiding with it loss, theft, etc.
Basándose en el tapacubos descrito en el apartado anterior, se han previsto unas mejoras consistentes en la incorporación de una pieza adicional prevista para conseguir un centraje en el montaje y fijación del tapacubos, así como una mejor apariencia de éste.Based on the hubcap described in section previous, consistent improvements are planned in the incorporation of an additional piece planned to achieve a centering on the assembly and fixing of the hubcaps, as well as a better appearance of this one.
Dicha pieza adicional está constituida por un casquillo cilíndrico que se monta a presión en cada proyección tubular del tapacubos, quedando retenida en éste mediante unos resaltes laterales de dicha pieza adicional que se enclavan en respectivas escotaduras previstas al efecto en la proyección tubular, contando la propia pieza adicional en su embocadura externa con un reborde que se posiciona y hace tope en un pequeño escalón de las lengüetas flexibles.Said additional piece is constituted by a cylindrical bushing that mounts on each projection tubular of the hubcap, being retained in it by means of lateral projections of said additional piece that are interlocked in respective recesses provided for this purpose in the projection tubular, counting the additional piece itself in its mouth external with a flange that is positioned and butts in a small Flexible tongue step.
La pieza adicional en cuestión presenta, en correspondencia con su superficie lateral y en el sentido de una de las generatrices, un resalte que se ubica en una ranura de la proyección tubular, determinando una única posición de montaje para dicha pieza, la cual está prevista para su aplicación en proyecciones tubulares en las que todas sus lengüetas sean flexibles, aunque también es posible su aplicación en aquellas proyecciones tubulares que cuenten con lengüetas flexibles entre las que van intercaladas lengüetas fijas.The additional piece in question presents, in correspondence with its lateral surface and in the sense of one of the generatrices, a protrusion that is located in a slot of the tubular projection, determining a single mounting position for said piece, which is intended for application in tubular projections in which all its tabs are flexible, although its application is also possible in those tubular projections that have flexible tabs between those that are interspersed with fixed tabs.
En cualquier caso, la comentada pieza adicional cuenta en el borde su embocadura interna con unas patillas flexibles que discurren entre las lengüetas de la proyección tubular, y sobre cuyas patillas flexibles ajusta el diámetro correspondiente al resalte de mayor diámetro con que está dotada la cabeza del tornillo, haciendo la función de centrado y colaborando dichas patillas en el posicionado y sujeción del aro metálico que como elemento elástico mantiene la tensión de las lengüetas flexibles de la proyección tubular, impidiendo que se puedan desplazar de su alojamiento o posición.In any case, the commented additional piece count on the edge its internal mouth with some pins flexible running between the projection tabs tubular, and on whose flexible pins adjust the diameter corresponding to the projection of greater diameter with which the screw head, centering and collaborating said pins in the positioning and fastening of the metal ring that as elastic element it maintains the tension of the tabs flexible tubular projection, preventing them from being able to move from your accommodation or position.
La comentada pieza adicional tendrá una longitud superior a las ranuras de las lengüetas flexibles, consiguiendo que éstas queden siempre cubiertas, lo que mejora el aspecto del tapacubos, cumpliendo así eficazmente su función de embellecedor de la rueda.The commented additional piece will have a length superior to the flexible tongue grooves, getting that these are always covered, which improves the appearance of hubcaps, thus effectively fulfilling its function as a beautifier the wheel.
Para complementar la descripción que seguidamente se va a realizar y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características del invento, se acompaña a la presente memoria descriptiva un juego de dibujos en base a los cuales se comprenderá más fácilmente las innovaciones y ventajas del tapacubos realizado de acuerdo con las mejoras objeto de la invención.To complement the description below is going to be done and in order to help a better understanding of The characteristics of the invention are attached herein descriptive a set of drawings based on which it will be understood more easily the innovations and advantages of the hubcap made in accordance with the improvements object of the invention.
Figura 1. Muestra una vista según una perspectiva de una porción del tapacubos aplicado sobre una llanta, en donde se ve un desmontaje en explosión de la pieza adicional objeto de las mejoras así como el tornillo de fijación a la llanta, y en otro caso el montaje de dichos elementos fijando el tapacubos a la llanta.Figure 1. Shows a view according to a perspective of a portion of the hubcap applied to a tire, where an exploding disassembly of the additional piece object of the improvements as well as the fixing screw to the rim, and in other in case the assembly of said elements fixing the hubcap to the tire.
Figura 2. Muestra una vista en sección de la pieza adicional montada sobre una proyección tubular en situación de acoplarse sobre el tornillo de fijación de la llanta.Figure 2. Shows a sectional view of the additional piece mounted on a tubular projection in situation to fit on the tire fixing screw.
Figura 3. Muestra una vista en sección como la de la figura anterior pero con el montaje realizado tal y como queda retenido el tapacubos sobre los tornillos de fijación de la llanta.Figure 3. Shows a sectional view like that of the previous figure but with the assembly done as it is retained the hubcap on the fixing screws of the tire.
A la vista de las figuras, puede observarse un tapacubos 1 con sus proyecciones tubulares 2 dotadas de lengüetas elásticas 3 en las que se conforman internamente labios 4, estando ese tapacubos 1, tal y como se representa en la figura 1, fijado sobre la correspondiente llanta 5 de la rueda.In view of the figures, a hubcaps 1 with their tubular projections 2 equipped with tongues elastic 3 in which lips 4 are formed internally, being that hubcap 1, as shown in figure 1, fixed on the corresponding wheel 5 of the wheel.
Dicha fijación se efectúa mediante tornillos 6 que quedan ubicados en las proyecciones tubulares 2, cuando se efectúa el empuje y deslizamiento del tapacubos 1 y por lo tanto de las proyecciones tubulares 2 sobre los tornillos 6 de fijación de la llanta 5, todo ello hasta que un resalte 7 de la cabeza del tornillo 6 hace tope contra un escalón 8 conformado en el labio 4 de las lengüetas flexibles 3 de las propias proyecciones tubulares 2.Said fixing is done by screws 6 that remain located in the tubular projections 2, when performs the thrust and sliding of the hubcap 1 and therefore of the tubular projections 2 on the fixing screws 6 of the rim 5, all this until a protrusion 7 of the head of the screw 6 stops against a step 8 formed in lip 4 of flexible tabs 3 of the tubular projections themselves two.
Pues bien, a partir de estas características, la novedad de la invención consiste en la incorporación de una pieza adicional en forma de casquillo cilíndrico 9, que se monta ajustadamente en cada una de las proyecciones tubulares 2, quedando retenida por medio de unas uñas 10 previstas en la superficie lateral de la propia pieza adicional 9 que se enclavan en escotaduras 11 correspondientes a las proyecciones tubulares 3, incluyendo además en su embocadura externa de mayor diámetro un reborde 12 que apoya y hace tope contra un pequeño escalón 13 previsto al efecto en una zona próxima a la embocadura de las proyecciones tubulares 2.Well, from these characteristics, the novelty of the invention consists in the incorporation of a piece additional cylindrical bushing 9, which is mounted tightly in each of the tubular projections 2, remaining retained by means of nails 10 provided on the surface side of the additional piece 9 that are interlocked in recesses 11 corresponding to tubular projections 3, also including in its outer mouth of greater diameter a flange 12 that supports and stops against a small step 13 provided for this purpose in an area close to the mouth of the tubular projections 2.
La pieza adicional 9 cuenta, además, en su embocadura opuesta a la del reborde 12, con unas patillas 14 que internamente determinan una superficie de ajuste del reborde 7 correspondiente a la cabeza del tornillo 6, constituyendo un medio de centrado en el montaje, mientras que externamente esas patillas 14 determinan un medio de posicionado y retención para un aro elástico 15 que actúa como medio de compresión sobre las lengüetas flexibles 3 y, por supuesto, sobre las propias patillas 14.The additional piece 9 also has in its mouth opposite the flange 12, with pins 14 that internally determine a flange adjustment surface 7 corresponding to the head of screw 6, constituting a means centered on the assembly, while externally those pins 14 determine a positioning and retention means for a ring elastic 15 that acts as a compression means on the tabs flexible 3 and, of course, on the pins 14.
En la superficie lateral de la pieza adicional 9 se ha previsto un resalte 16 que condiciona el montaje de tal pieza 9 en una posición única al deslizarse ese resalte 16 en una ranura establecida al efecto en la correspondiente proyección tubular 2.On the side surface of the additional part 9 a projection 16 is provided that conditions the assembly of such piece 9 in a unique position when that highlight 16 slides in a slot established for this purpose in the corresponding projection tubular 2.
De esta manera, una vez fijada la llanta 5 de la rueda mediante los tornillos 6, el montaje y sujeción del tapacubos 1 se realiza simplemente por empuje del mismo, haciendo previamente coincidentes las proyecciones tubulares 2 con los tornillos 6, empuje que lleva consigo el correspondiente desplazamiento o deslizamiento respecto a la cabeza de esos tornillos 6 hasta que se sobrepasa el resalte 7 para quedar enclavado el conjunto a través del escalón 8 definido en los labios 4 de las lengüetas flexibles 3 de las proyecciones tubulares 2, todo ello de manera tal que para la independización del tapacubos 1 es necesario llevar a cabo el desenroscado de los tornillos 6 ya que el enclavamiento entre el resalte 7 y escalón 8 impide la extracción del tapacubos.In this way, once the rim 5 of the wheel using screws 6, mounting and securing the hubcaps 1 is done simply by pushing it, making previously coinciding with tubular projections 2 with screws 6, thrust that carries the corresponding displacement or sliding with respect to the head of those screws 6 until protrusion 7 is exceeded to remain nailed the assembly through the step 8 defined in the lips 4 of the flexible tabs 3 of the tubular projections 2, all this in such a way that for the independence of the hubcap 1 it is necessary to unscrew the screws 6 already that the interlocking between shoulder 7 and step 8 prevents hubcap removal.
La pieza adicional 9, aunque está prevista fundamentalmente para su aplicación en proyecciones tubulares 2 en la que la totalidad de sus lengüetas sean flexibles, es igualmente aplicable en aquellas proyecciones tubulares que incorporen intercaladas algunas lengüetas rígidas en las que ajustará el resalte anular 7 de la cabeza del tornillo 6, de manera que la no existencia de esas lengüetas rígidas establece que el apoyo y ajuste del resalte anular 7 se realice, como ya se ha dicho, sobre la parte interna de las patillas 14 pertenecientes a la propia pieza adicional 9.Additional piece 9, although it is planned mainly for application in tubular projections 2 in that all of its tabs are flexible, is also applicable in those tubular projections that incorporate interspersed with some rigid tabs on which you will adjust the highlight the annular 7 of the screw head 6, so that the existence of those rigid tabs states that the support and adjustment of the annular projection 7 is carried out, as already said, on the internal part of the pins 14 belonging to the own additional piece 9.
