Definitions
- a cigarette lighter comprises an ignition body fixed to a fixed wall of the vehicle such as a console or the dashboard thereof.
- This body on the one hand, carries electrical supply parts as well as a socket outlet member, usually in the form of a bimetallic strip, and, on the other hand, serves as a receptacle for the removable heating plug comprising two parts movable axially with respect to each other against elastic axial return means as described for example in document FR-A-2 701 438.
- the mobile part comprises a button made of electrically and thermally insulating material secured to an electrically conductive support carrying electrically insulated an end cup internally receiving an electric heating resistor in the form of a spiral.
- the cup engages with the hooks of the socket outlet bimetallic strip and an electrical circuit is established allowing the heating of the heating resistor.
- the blades of the bimetallic strip expand and the button returns to its initial position under the action of the elastic return means. It then remains only to extract the plug to light, for example, a cigarette.
- a heating plug of the above-mentioned type is characterized in that the bottom of the cup has, for contact with the external end of the heating resistor, a plurality of support legs directed towards the inside of the cup, in that the outer end of the heating resistor is clamped between said tabs and the edge of the cup folded inwards, and in that said tabs are located at the rounded connection zone of the bottom at the side edge of the cup. Thanks to the invention, the resistor is assembled mechanically without welding and the number of parts is reduced, no ring being necessary.
- This arrangement makes it possible not to modify the assembly axis or the electrically insulating washer interposed between the bottoms of the cup and of the support.
- FIG. 1 is a partial axial sectional view of the plug showing the assembly of the resistor with its associated cup according to the invention
- the resistor 2 is housed in the cup 1 while being threaded by its inner end 14 (its last turn) into the end slot of the axis 4. Its outer end turn 19 is then in contact with the straight edge metal 16 of the cup 1.
- the bottom 7 of the cup 1 has at its external periphery, at its connection with the rounded zone 17 for connection to the edge 16, support tabs 20 here regularly distributed. These tabs 20 are easily obtained by shearing and folding the metal bottom 7 in the direction opposite to the insulating washer 6, therefore towards the inside of the cup 1.
- the axis 4 is crimped with fixing of the washers 6.8; and from the cup 1 to the support 3.
- the last external turn of the resistor 2 is therefore automatically pressed in contact with the support legs 20.
- the turns of the resistor 2 have a V-shaped section.
- the last turn 19 of the resistor 2 is clamped between said tabs 20 and the edge 16 of the cup 1 folded inward.
- the material of the washer 8 is trimmed at the level of the support tabs 20.
- the internal washer 8 has a flat 21 of clearance facing each tab 20 (FIG. 2).
- three flats 21 and three legs 20 are provided. Of course this depends on the applications, the number of legs 20 and flats 21 may vary.
- axis 4 remains unchanged.
- the washer 8 has good resistance. In addition, good resistance ventilation is obtained by means of the tabs 20 revealing, for each of the latter, an opening 23 in the zone 17.
