Definitions

  • the present invention essentially relates to a door retaining device in the open position which can be mounted for example on a motor vehicle.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these drawbacks by proposing a particular door retaining device which has all the desired qualities of reliability and resistance, and which also makes it possible to give the door a multiplicity of angular positions d opening for which the door remains firmly held.
  • the subject of the invention is a door retaining device in the open position which can be mounted for example on a motor vehicle and of the type comprising a toothed element integral with the door leaf.
  • This device is characterized by another toothed element integral with the frame of the door and capable of coming into engagement with the toothed element of the leaf, which toothed element is flexible to retain the leaf in the open position according to the chosen opening angle.
  • the abovementioned toothed elements form two surfaces provided with substantially parallel teeth, namely a first surface fixed to the frame in a plane which is substantially vertical and parallel to the pivot axis of the leaf, and a second surface fixed to the leaf substantially following an arc of a circle surrounding said pivot axis constituted for example by hinges with a vertical axis.
  • toothed elements or surfaces are each made of an elastic material, for example of acetal resin as regards the surface fixed to the frame, and of polyamide as regards the surface fixed to the leaf.
  • the open position of the two toothed surfaces fixed respectively to the frame and the leaf is such that the number of teeth engaging and therefore the retaining torque becomes greater as and as the opening angle of the leaf becomes larger.
  • the toothed surfaces are, according to a preferred embodiment, fixed and tensioned respectively on the frame and the leaf by means of pins or the like clipped into orifices formed in this frame and this leaf.
  • the toothed surface fixed on the leaf is devoid of teeth at its ends which have two returns forming between them an angle substantially equal to 90 ° after fixing on said leaf.
  • At least the fixing of the toothed surface on the leaf is adjustable to allow prior adjustment of its tensioning or stressing.
  • one of the abovementioned ends of the toothed surface fixed to the leaf is provided with at least one stop cooperating with the frame to define a maximum opening angle of the leaf.
  • a device essentially comprises two toothed elements 1 and 2 fixed respectively to the frame D and the leaf B of a door of vehicle, these two elements being capable of coming into engagement with one another when the leaf is opened to retain it in the open position according to the chosen opening angle.
  • the frame or door leg D is, according to the embodiment shown, formed by an assembly of two stampings 3 and 4 defining a tubular upright having a substantially rectangular horizontal section.
  • the stamp 3 located on the outside of the vehicle, comprises a reinforcement 5 with flat bottom 6 on which is fixed the toothed element 1 which is in the form of a grid or surface 7 provided with a plurality of teeth 8 and made of acetal resin.
  • the toothed surface 7 is fixed to the flat face or bottom 6 of the frame D by four pins or the like 9 (see FIGS. 1 and 3), clipped into holes made in said flat surface 5.
  • the elastic surface 7 with its teeth 8 is fixed on the frame D along a plane which is vertical and which is parallel to the pivot axis X of the leaf B of the door.
  • a hollow seal was shown at 10 which adheres to the frame D, and is located on the side of the leaf B, this seal 10 surrounding the junction 11 of the two stampings 3 and 4 forming the frame D.
  • This seal 10 is intended to be crushed in the closed position of the leaf B of the door, by a fold of rebate 12 forming part of this leaf.
  • the toothed element 2 fixed on the leaf consists of a grid or surface 13 provided with a plurality of parallel teeth 14, and having in the free state (FIG. 2) substantially the shape of an arc of a circle of approximately 130 °.
  • the surface 13 is preferably made of polyamide and it is fixed to the leaf B by surrounding the pivot axis X, so that the teeth 14 are thus substantially parallel to the teeth 8 of the toothed surface 7 and can come into engagement with these teeth when the door leaf B is pivoted.
  • the toothed surface 13 has two ends 15 and 16 devoid of teeth and each comprising a return or fold 15a, 16a.
  • the folds 15a, 16a each carry pins or the like 17 which can penetrate holes in the rebate of the door leaf B so as to ensure the fixing by clipping of the toothed surface 13.
  • the two returns or folds 15a and 16a form between them an angle substantially equal to 90 ° after fixing the toothed surface 13 on the leaf B, this fixing ensuring of course the tensioning of said surface, as can be understood by considering the figures 1 and 2.
  • the return or fold 15a of the surface 13 has a hole 19 in which a suitable means 20 for additional fixing of the toothed surface 13 can be engaged on the rebate of the door leaf.
  • a hole 23 in the smooth part 15 of the toothed surface 13 this hole allowing the passage of a tool to allow fixing by clipping the fold 15a of the grid or toothed surface 13.
  • the mounting of the toothed surface 13 gives this surface a constraint since in the initial state the folds 15a, 16a of the said surface form an angle close to 140 ° between them as seen on Figure 2, and that after assembly, said folds form an angle of 90 ° between them, as seen in Figure 1.
  • Such stress of the grid or surface 13 tends to penetrate the teeth 14 in the teeth 8 of the grid or surface 7 integral with the frame D.
  • it is necessary to deform the toothed surface which requires an effort both in the direction of opening and in the closing direction, which means that the door leaf will be correctly maintained at the chosen opening angle.
  • a door retaining device has therefore been produced according to the invention which is remarkably simple and reliable, is inexpensive, requires no lubrication, generates no noise or squeaks, solves corrosion problems and does not require additional parts. to guarantee watertightness.
