Definitions

  • the invention relates to the field of locking devices of a vehicle hood.
  • the invention relates to a device for locking an adjustable vehicle hood according to at least one component of the space.
  • the invention also relates to a locking device of an adjustable cover after mounting the vehicle.
  • Vehicle hood locking devices are known whose positioning of the hood relative to the vehicle body is fixed, during assembly of the vehicle, by the height of the parts themselves and without subsequent adjustment possible.
  • the Applicant has for example proposed solutions of this type, the device then comprising a lock in two parts, the first part being integral with the cover, the second part being integral with another bodywork element, the first and second parts being secured. from each other when the hood is in the closed state.
  • the second part comprises a plate fixed to the bodywork element and arranged relative to the cover so that the distance, in the closed state, between the plate and the cover is determined during assembly and can not be adjusted thereafter .
  • An object of the invention is to provide a hood locking device whose adjustment means are accessible by an individual after mounting the vehicle.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a hood locking device whose adjustment means are accessible by an individual from outside the vehicle.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a cover locking device, the device being adjustable in at least one component of the space by means accessible to open hood or closed, and to adjust the positioning of the hood.
  • a locking device of a vehicle hood comprising, a first part integral with the cover, a second part connected to the first part and comprising a striker intended to be restrained when the hood is in the closed state, by a lock secured to a bodywork element, the relative position of the first and second parts being adjustable, at least in the direction of the opening / closing axis, by means of adjusting means accessible after mounting of the vehicle, characterized in that the second part comprises a fixed bridge of the striker and whose relative position in the direction of the axis of opening / closing and relative to the first part is adjustable by the adjustment means.
  • an orthogonal reference mark XYZ formed by an axis X whose direction is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle is defined, a Y axis whose direction is parallel to the direction of the transverse axis of the vehicle. (depending on the width of the vehicle) and a Z axis whose direction is parallel to the vertical axis of the vehicle (depending on the height of the vehicle).
  • the hood 2 of the vehicle is opened or closed in a rotational movement represented by arrows 21 and 22, respectively.
  • the opening or closing action of the hood 2 enables to define an opening / closing axis 23 whose direction is substantially vertical, that is to say substantially parallel to the Z axis of the XYZ mark.
  • the front part of the vehicle is referenced 24.
  • the locking device 1 according to the invention of the hood 2 of the vehicle comprises a first portion 11 secured to the hood, a second portion comprising a bridge 12 integral with a keeper 13, and a third portion 14 formed by a lock integral with a body part 3.
  • the first part 11 is fixed or welded to the means of tabs 111, 112 to the cover 2, but it can also be stamped in the cover 2.
  • the striker 13 is fixed by means of welds 131, 132 on the support striker 12 and the lock 14 may be welded, or fixed by any other means to a body member 3 may for example be an upper rail of the vehicle.
  • the first part 11 of the device is located inside the bridge 12 of the second part.
  • the lock 14 provides a housing 141 in which the striker 13, substantially section circular, is inserted, lock which is also mobile in the YZ plane (the X axis is an axis of rotation of the lock).
  • the parts 11, 12, 13 forming the first and second parts of the device 1 are therefore integral with the cover 2 while the lock 14 forming a third part of the device is integral with another bodywork element 3.
  • the first part 11, which is integral with the cover 2 can translate, slide in the second part 12, 13 in the direction of the opening / closing axis 23.
  • the adjustment means comprise at least one set 15, 150 screw / nut, and preferably three sets 15, 150, 16, 160, 17, 170 screws / nuts, as shown in FIG.
  • the nuts 150, 160, 170 are fixed to the first part 11, preferably by welding, so that they remain in place on this first part 11 in the case of a disengagement of the screws 15, 16, 17 in the nut. respective.
  • the distance d is then adjusted by adapting the relative position between the first part and the bridge, that is to say by adapting the distance D separating the first part 11 to the bridge 12 (adjustment in Z). More precisely, the distance D corresponds to the distance separating the bottom 113 of the first part 11 and the bottom 121 of the bridge 12.
  • the screws must be accessible from the side of the device, and more precisely at walls 113, 122 of the first 11 and second parts 12, 13 respectively.
  • These walls 113, 122 are located towards the front of the vehicle and extend substantially perpendicularly to the cover 2, so that screws are screwed / unscrewed about an axis of rotation substantially perpendicular to said walls 113, 122 , block / dislodge the possible translation between these parts.
  • the screw / nut assemblies are arranged in the same plane.
  • this plane is a plane extending substantially parallel to the XY plane, the XY plane being a horizontal plane.
  • a first screw / nut assembly 15, 150 is intended to be inserted at an orifice 70 of a vertical wall 122 of the bridge 12.
  • a second assembly 16, 160 screw / nut and a third assembly 17, 170 screws / nut are arranged symmetrically with respect to an axis 7 substantially parallel to the Z axis when the cover is in the closed state.
  • the openings 70, 71, 72 of the bridge 12 have a height H, which defines the range of possible adjustment of the distance D and thus the distance d between the cover 2 and the lock 14.
  • the orifices 70, 71, 72 of the bridge 12 also have a width I, dimensioned so that a play along the Y axis is possible between the bridge 1 2 and the first part 11.
  • the first part 11 also provides orifices (not shown) vis-à-vis the orifices 70, 71, 72 of the bridge.
  • These orifices of the first part 11 of the device can be of shape and dimensions substantially identical to the orifices 70, 71, 72, but may also have other shapes, being assumed to allow the previously described Y and Z adjustment.
  • the device will preferably comprise three screw / nut assemblies to hold the assembly together, but two, arranged relative to one another in a direction substantially parallel to the direction of the Y axis, may be sufficient to avoid any rotation of the first and second parts relative to each other about the X axis.
  • the action on the adjustment means, and more precisely on the screws, is performed easily because they are oriented to be accessible by an individual from outside the vehicle, and without the need to open the hood 2.
  • the adjustment means are set when the hood is in the closed state.
  • adjustment means are accessible by an individual after mounting the vehicle, and from outside the vehicle.
  • the adjustment is therefore made from outside the vehicle when the hood is open.
  • this embodiment has the advantage of making a precise adjustment, since it is directly related to the predetermined height of the hold.
  • the distance d between the cover 2 of the lock 14 can be set in a range of values ranging from a few millimeters to a few centimeters.
  • first and second parts can be interchanged, that is to say that the first part 11 of the device can be outside while the bridge 12 is inside of the first part 11.
  • the bolt will be fixed to the trigger guard, and that the first part will have orifices corresponding to the orifices 70, 71, 72 presented in support of FIG.
  • the distance D separating the first portion 11 and the bridge 12 of the second part when the hood is in the closed state offers another feature.
  • This feature is that of a shock absorber, for example during a shock with pedestrian.
  • the present invention is not limited to the means described herein, but extends to any embodiment within its spirit.
