Definitions
- the present invention relates to a console adapted to be attached to the chassis of a motor vehicle.
- a console generally made of plastic
- Such a console is known of the type comprising a shell which defines an enclosure, and a reinforcement fixed to the shell, in the enclosure, and intended to reinforce the rigidity of the shell.
- the reinforcement independently of the shell, is attached to the latter, usually by welding.
- Such a console is relatively expensive since it requires the manufacture of two independent parts (the shell and the reinforcement), or more (if there are several reinforcements), and the reunification of all these parts. The costs are related to the existence of the various steps necessary for the manufacture of the console as well as the management of these steps and parts.
- the present invention aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks.
- the reinforcement comprises at least one reinforcing element which is integral with the shell and is connected thereto by a film hinge allowing it to pivot between a deployed position out of the shell to achieve the entire monobloc console, and a reinforcing position in which it is retracted into the enclosure to stiffen the hull.
- the console is made in a single step, for example by molding, each reinforcing element being from the beginning connected to the shell.
- the connection between a reinforcing element and the shell being formed by a film hinge, that is to say by a zone of weakening of material, it is possible to make the console by molding, each reinforcing element being molded in a position outside the enclosure to allow the demolding the console, then rotate each reinforcing element so that they occupy their reinforcing position in the enclosure.
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of the location intended to be covered by a console according to the present invention
- Figure 2 is a perspective view from below of a console according to the present invention, the reinforcing elements being in the deployed position
- Figure 3 is a view similar to Figure 2, the reinforcing elements being in the reinforcing position;
- Figure 4 is a top view of the console set up in the location that was intended for him;
- FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view along line V-V of FIG. 4, and
- FIG. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view along the line VI-VI of FIG. 4.
- FIG. 2 shows a console 1 adapted to be fixed to the chassis of a motor vehicle.
- a console 1 adapted to be fixed between the driver's seat and that of the front passenger.
- the console 1 comprises, on the one hand, a shell 2 defining an enclosure which, in the present example, is adapted to envelop the mechanisms of a shift control gear 3 and those of a handbrake 4, and, secondly, a reinforcement 5 fixed to the shell 2, in the enclosure, and for to strengthen the rigidity of the hull 2.
- the shell 2 comprises a conductive side wall 6 adapted to be arranged along the driver's seat, a passenger side wall 7 adapted to be arranged along the front passenger seat, a front side wall 8 adapted to be approached to the dashboard of the vehicle, a rear side wall 9 and an upper wall 10 which comprises a storage bin 11, a first passage opening 12 to allow the passage of the lever of the parking brake 4, and a second passage opening 13 to allow the passage of the lever of the shift control lever 3.
- the four side walls 6, 7, 8, 9 and the upper wall 10 delimit the enclosure.
- the shell 2 also has a lower opening 14 which is delimited by the lower edges of the four side walls 6, 7, 8, 9 and which is adapted to bear on the frame.
- the reinforcement 5 comprises at least one reinforcing element 15 (here, two reinforcing elements 15), each reinforcing element 15 being integral with the shell 2 and connected thereto by a film hinge 16.
- the two reinforcing elements 15 are carried by two side walls facing each other (here, the conductive side walls 6 and passenger I) 1 and, themselves, face each other.
- the film hinge 16, formed by a zone of weakening of material, allows the pivoting of the corresponding reinforcing element 15 between a deployed position out of the shell 2 (see FIG. 2) which makes it possible to carry out the entirety of the console 1 monobloc
- each film hinge 16 connects the reinforcement element 15 corresponding to the lower edge of the corresponding side wall 6, 7.
- the shell 2 in order to improve the rigidity of the console 1 when the reinforcing elements 15 are in their reinforcing position, the shell 2 comprises an immobilization structure 17 to which the reinforcing elements 15 are immobilized ( and even, in this case, fixed).
- This immobilization structure 17, in this case, comprises an inner wall 18 carried by the inner surface of one of the walls 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 delimiting the enclosure (in this case, the upper wall 10 ).
- This internal wall 18 is integral with the shell 2. Still for the purpose of improving the rigidity, when the reinforcing elements 15 are in their reinforcing position, they are partly arranged against the inner surface of the side wall 6 , 7 to which they are connected by the film hinge 16.
- each reinforcing element 15 provides a mechanical connection between a side wall 6, 7 delimiting the shell and another wall remote from the first wall 6, 7 (here, an inner wall 18 carried by the upper wall 10 and being substantially halfway between the two side walls 6, 7 carrying the two reinforcing elements 15).
- each reinforcing element 15 has the shape of a square and it has, on the one hand, a connecting lug 19 which extends from the film hinge 16, and, on the other hand, a bracket 20 in the present embodiment, the two tabs 19,20 are perpendicular to each other.
- the connecting lug 19 extends along the inner surface of the side wall 6, 7 to which it is connected by the film hinge 17. Also when a reinforcing element 15 is in its reinforcing position, the fixing lug 20 abuts against the free end of the immobilizing structure 17. Here, the fixing lug 20 has a stop surface 21 which comes into abutment against an abutment surface 22 located at the free end of the inner wall 18). In order to improve the rigidity of the bracket 1, when a reinforcing element 15 is in its reinforcing position, the bracket 20 is fixed (ie locked) to the immobilization structure 17.
- the fixing lug 20 comprises a fixing member 23 which is adapted to cooperate with a complementary fixing member 24 located at the free end of the inner wall 18.
- the complementary fastening member 24 is formed by a tongue 24 elastically deformable projecting from the abutment surface 22 which is adapted to snap into a fastening opening 23 forming the fastener 23, the tongue 24 having a hook-shaped free end adapted to pass through the corresponding opening.
- the immobilization structure 17 comprises, at its free end , a wedging rib 40 against which the free end 41 of the fastening tabs 20 come in frictional contact.
- the two conductive side walls 6 and passenger 7 comprise a light 25 allowing the passage of a screw which also passes through.
- an additional light 26 made on the frame in this case made on a lug 27 of a plate 28 for stopping the sheath of the hand brake cable).
- the screw allowing the connection of the console 1 to the frame also passes through an additional light 29 which is carried by the corresponding connecting lug 19 and which is aligned with the light 25 and the complementary light 26 when the reinforcing element 15 is in its reinforcing position.
- each fixing lug 20 comprises a fixing element 30 which, when the reinforcing element 15 is in its reinforcing position, is adapted to cooperate with a complementary element of fastening 31 carried by the frame.
- the fastening element 30 is formed by an elastically deformable tongue 30 projecting from the fastening tab 20 which is adapted to snap into a fastening orifice 31 forming the complementary fastening element 31, the tongue 30 having a hook-shaped free end adapted to pass through the corresponding orifice which is formed in the stop plate 28.
- the bracket 1 stiffened after immobilization of the reinforcing elements 15 in their reinforcing position, the console 1 is arranged properly relative to the frame, snapped to the latter (by the intermediate fixing elements 29), then screwed (via the lights 24 and additional lights 28).
- the present invention is not limited to the present embodiment. It applies in particular to any type of console usually mounted in a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, not just the center console.
- the number of reinforcing elements may vary.
- the reinforcing elements could also have no fastening element for fixing the console to the frame, they could also have a different structure (other than that of two legs perpendicular to each other), and in particular a single leg.
