Definitions
- the present invention relates to a roof console of a motor vehicle incorporating electrical components and storage.

- a roof console of a motor vehicle incorporating electrical components and storage units in which the electrical components comprise signal lamps and electrical buttons placed in the visual field of the vehicle. driver in the front part of the console, and in which storage units are arranged ergonomically in the rear part of the console with a pivot axis of their common doors which is oriented along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.
- a support member is fixed to the roof structure bearing the bearings of the pivot axes of the hatches and a facade element is provided with pre-assembled electrical components.
- the storage hatches are connected by goosenecks comprising movement retarders and preloading springs for the independent opening, according to the common pivot axis of the butterfly opening doors.
- locking / unlocking buttons are provided, preloaded by the springs of the hatches each pivoting about an axis, thus releasing after actuation a hook of a striker from its locking position located behind an inner edge of a side wall from the hatch.
- Fig. 1 shows a general view of a roof console according to the invention (a), a detailed view of an open door (b) and a rear view of the roof console according to the invention with the hatches open; and Fig.2a shows a perspective sectional view through the roof console at the front axis of the hatches; Fig.2b shows a perspective section at the lock / unlock buttons of the hatches; and Fig.2c is a perspective section at the rear axis of the hatches.
- Fig. shows an overview of an embodiment of a roof console of a motor vehicle according to the invention.
- the console 1 extends from the foot of the rearview mirror along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle towards the rear. Its shape is organic and does not present sharp edges or angles.
- the front portion comprises a front element 10 carrying electrical components 2 premounted. These electrical components 2 are therefore in the field of view of the driver of the vehicle that can see them and manipulate without being distracted from its concentration on the road.
- FIG. 1 In the second rear half of the console is storage 3 with hatches 7, which open independently butterfly, as can be seen in Figures lb and the.

From the point of view of ergonomics, this location is very advantageous since it allows the hatches to be opened simply by raising the arm in a vertical movement and to actuate a locking button 12 with the end of the fingers.
- Storage 3 is suitable for storing small items such as sunglasses or mobile phones.
- Fig.2c shows in perspective a cross section of the roof console at the rear bearing 9b of the hatches 7.
- the roof console according to the invention has several advantages.
- the present invention allows the grouping of functions in an easily accessible and ergonomic place.
- the number of functions on the dashboard can be reduced and the style of the cabin of the vehicle approaches the cockpit type of aircraft which leads to a more interesting aesthetic.
- the present invention includes all the variants of opening of the hatches, both in terms of the direction of opening, from top to bottom or from bottom to top, than at the level of the opening and closing system, push simple, push-pull, etc.
