Description

DISPOSITIF ARTICULE EN ROTATION DOTE D'UN SYSTEME DE CONNEXION ELECTRIQUE  ARTICULATED ROTATION DEVICE HAVING AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTION SYSTEM
L'invention concerne un dispositif articulé en rotation doté d'un système de connexion électrique, le dispositif comportant deux pièces reliées l'une à l'autre en rotation, chacune comportant un élément de connexion électrique relié électriquement à l'autre lorsque les deux pièces sont associées. The invention relates to a device articulated in rotation with an electrical connection system, the device comprising two parts connected to each other in rotation, each having an electrical connection element electrically connected to the other when the two parts are associated.
L'invention sera plus particulièrement décrite, sans toutefois y être limitée, en regard de deux pièces constituant les pièces mâle et femelle d'une paumelle, dont l'une est donc mobile en rotation par rapport à l'autre et destinée si besoin à lui être découplée. L'invention peut concerner toutes pièces, dont une est au moins amovible par rapport à l'autre et destinées à comprendre une liaison électrique. Le dispositif de l'invention concerne plus spécifiquement l'acheminement d'une basse tension, voire très basse tension, à travers celui-ci, et en sortie des deux pièces. The invention will be more particularly described, but not limited to, two parts constituting the male and female parts of a hinge, one of which is rotatable relative to the other and intended if necessary to to be decoupled. The invention may relate to any part, one of which is at least removable relative to the other and intended to include an electrical connection. The device of the invention relates more specifically to the routing of a low voltage, or even very low voltage, through it, and at the output of the two parts.
Le dispositif de l'invention est destiné à être fixé par ses deux pièces, respectivement à deux composants, par exemple respectivement à un corps de bâti et un ouvrant/vantail, l'un devant être monté mobile en rotation par rapport à l'autre grâce audit dispositif, le dispositif servant également de moyens d'acheminement d'électricité d'une pièce à l'autre, et en particulier d'un composant à l'autre, tel que du bâti au vantail. The device of the invention is intended to be fixed by its two parts, respectively two components, for example respectively to a frame body and an opening / leaf, one to be rotatably mounted relative to the other thanks to said device, the device also serving as means for routing electricity from one room to another, and in particular from one component to another, such as from the frame to the leaf.
De multiples organes doivent être alimentés en électricité ou raccordés électriquement alors qu'ils sont agencés sur des composants mobiles tels qu'une porte comportant une serrure électrique, une porte pourvue d'une sonnette filaire, une fenêtre dotée d'une surface verrière électrique, dite fenêtre à verre actif, une porte de miroir éclairant, un panneau mobile doté de capteurs, etc. Multiple members must be supplied with electricity or electrically connected while they are arranged on moving components such as a door having an electric lock, a door provided with a wired doorbell, a window with a glass canopy surface, called active glass window, illuminating mirror door, moveable panel with sensors, etc.
De manière connue, l'acheminement électrique se fait via des passe- câbles associés de manière visible et disgracieuse sur l'ensemble fixe et mobile. In known manner, the electrical routing is via cable glands visibly and unsightly associated with the fixed and mobile assembly.
Il est aussi connu de configurer des gonds ou charnières avec des logements creux pour y passer les câbles électriques. It is also known to configure hinges or hinges with hollow housing to pass the electric cables.
Cependant, lors de l'association du composant mobile au composant fixe, il est nécessaire, généralement préalablement, de raccorder électriquement les câbles, et lors du dégondage, il convient encore à l'utilisateur de déconnecter les câbles. However, when the mobile component is associated with the fixed component, it is necessary, generally beforehand, to electrically connect the cables, and during the disengagement, it is still necessary for the user to disconnect the cables.
D'une part, l'association et la dissociation du composant mobile par rapport au fixe impliquent des opérations de câblage et décâblage, d'autre part ces dernières ne sont pas sans risque pour l'utilisateur. De plus, lorsque les passe-câbles sont extérieurs, des opérations de maintenance sont nécessaires pour garantir la continuité électrique et la sécurité, et opérer à leur remplacement car leur durée de vie est souvent limitée en raison de l'environnement dans lequel ils sont agencés. On the one hand, the association and dissociation of the mobile component relative to the fixed involve cabling and decabling operations, on the other hand the latter are not without risk for the user. In addition, when grommets are external, maintenance operations are necessary to ensure electrical continuity and safety, and operate to their replacement because their service life is often limited because of the environment in which they are arranged .
L'invention a donc pour but de pallier les inconvénients précités et de proposer un dispositif simple et rapide de mise en œuvre, sécuritaire pour l'utilisateur, et conservant le mouvement de rotation sans dommage pour la liaison électrique. The invention therefore aims to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a simple and quick implementation device, safe for the user, and retaining the rotational movement without damage to the electrical connection.
Selon l'invention, le dispositif à articulation doté d'un système de connexion électrique, comporte deux pièces articulées reliées l'une à l'autre en rotation et dotées chacune d'un logement creux, et deux éléments de connexion électrique logés dans le dispositif, les deux éléments de connexion électrique coopérant ensemble pour assurer une continuité électrique lorsque les deux pièces articulées sont associées, caractérisé en ce que les connexion et déconnexion électriques entre les deux éléments sont automatiques lors de l'association et respectivement la dissociation des deux pièces, l'un des deux éléments de connexion électrique étant fait de deux parties aboutées longitudinalement, l'une des parties étant mobile par rapport à l'autre d'une part en rotation et d'autre part en translation selon un mouvement élastique, ladite partie mobile étant celle destinée à être en contact avec l'autre élément de connexion électrique. According to the invention, the hinge device having an electrical connection system, comprises two articulated parts connected to each other in rotation and each provided with a hollow housing, and two electrical connection elements housed in the housing. device, both electrical connection elements cooperating together to provide electrical continuity when the two articulated parts are associated, characterized in that the electrical connection and disconnection between the two elements are automatic during the association and respectively the dissociation of the two parts, one two electrical connection elements being made of two longitudinally abutting portions, one of the parts being movable relative to the other on the one hand in rotation and on the other hand in translation according to an elastic movement, said movable part being the intended to be in contact with the other electrical connection element.
On entend par « automatique » au regard des connexions et déconnexion électrique, le fait qu'aucune manipulation au regard des éléments électriques logés dans les deux pièces articulées n'est nécessaire, c'est-à- dire qu'aucune intervention manuelle sur les éléments électriques n'est mise en œuvre. The term "automatic" with regard to the connections and electrical disconnection, the fact that no manipulation with respect to the electrical elements housed in the two articulated parts is necessary, that is to say that no manual intervention on the electrical elements is not implemented.
La rotation libre et la mobilité élastique permettent de compenser l'éventuel jeu d'assemblage lors de la coopération mécanique des deux pièces articulées. The free rotation and the elastic mobility make it possible to compensate for the possible assembly play during the mechanical cooperation of the two articulated parts.
Ainsi, lors de l'association ou de la dissociation des deux pièces articulées l'une à l'autre, l'association des éléments de connexion électrique et surtout leur séparation à tout moment ultérieur sont simples et rapides, sans opération préalable d'intervention sur les éléments électriques, du type câblage, décâblage à l'intérieur des pièces, et sans risque ainsi pour l'utilisateur qui doit détacher les deux pièces l'une de l'autre alors que celles-ci sont le plus souvent métalliques. Thus, when associating or dissociating the two articulated parts to one another, the combination of the electrical connection elements and especially their separation at any subsequent time are simple and fast, without prior intervention operation. on the electrical elements, wiring, dismounting inside parts, and thus without risk to the user who must detach the two parts from each other while they are usually metal.
Les deux pièces articulées forment en particulier une paumelle, l'une des pièces comprenant un gond, tandis que l'autre comprend une cavité d'accueil complémentaire pour le gond. Chaque pièce est destinée à être solidaire respectivement d'un bâti et d'un corps amovible et mobile en rotation, tel qu'un ouvrant/vantail, par exemple un vantail de porte, de fenêtre, de miroir, etc. The two articulated pieces form in particular a hinge, one of the parts comprising a hinge, while the other comprises a complementary receiving cavity for the hinge. Each piece is intended to be secured respectively to a frame and a removable body and movable in rotation, such as an opening / leaf, for example a door leaf, window, mirror, etc..
Selon une caractéristique, les deux parties des deux pièces respectives articulées sont respectivement mâle pour l'une et femelle pour l'autre, et coopèrent mécaniquement par engagement mutuel. According to one characteristic, the two parts of the two respective hinged parts are respectively male for one and female for the other, and cooperate mechanically by mutual engagement.
Les deux pièces articulées comportent chacune, une platine de fixation destinée à la fixation de la pièce sur un corps de bâti et respectivement un corps de vantail, et une partie longiligne dotée d'un logement creux pour accueillir de manière solidaire un des éléments de connexion électrique. The two articulated parts each comprise, a mounting plate for fastening the workpiece to a frame body and respectively a leaf body, and an elongated portion provided with a hollow housing for integrally accommodating one of the connection elements. electric.
Selon une caractéristique, le logement accueillant l'élément de connexion électrique de la première pièce mâle est agencé dans la partie mâle (le gond), tandis que le logement accueillant l'élément de connexion électrique de la seconde pièce (pièce femelle) correspond au logement destinée à accueillir la partie mâle (gond) de la première pièce (pièce mâle). According to one characteristic, the housing accommodating the electrical connection element of the first male part is arranged in the male part (the hinge), while the housing accommodating the electrical connection element of the second part (female part) corresponds to the housing intended to accommodate the male part (hinge) of the first piece (male piece).
Selon une autre caractéristique, chaque élément de connexion électrique comporte une tige rigide en un matériau électriquement conducteur qui comprend une extrémité distale libre, la liaison électrique entre les deux éléments de connexion étant réalisée par mise en contact des deux extrémités distales libres. According to another characteristic, each electrical connection element comprises a rigid rod made of an electrically conductive material which comprises a free distal end, the electrical connection between the two connection elements being formed by contacting the two free distal ends.
De préférence, la mise en contact des deux éléments de connexion électrique est faite par compression élastique. Preferably, the contacting of the two electrical connection elements is made by elastic compression.
Avantageusement, la partie mobile de l'élément de connexion électrique en deux parties est montée coulissante sur la partie fixe via un ressort. Le ressort garantit le contact entre la partie mobile de l'élément de connexion électrique en deux parties et l'autre élément de connexion électrique. Le coulissement résiduel permet d'éviter un montage hyperstatique sans rupture de liaison électrique. Advantageously, the movable part of the two-part electrical connection element is slidably mounted on the fixed part via a spring. The spring ensures contact between the movable part of the two-part electrical connection element and the other electrical connection element. The residual sliding avoids a hyperstatic assembly without breaking the electrical connection.
Avantageusement, les extrémités libres des éléments de connexion électrique comprennent à leur surface de contact des formes coopérant par engagement mutuel, de sorte à renforcer la liaison intime de contact, garantissant une parfaite continuité électrique. Advantageously, the free ends of the electrical connection elements comprise at their contact surface forms cooperating by mutual engagement, so as to strengthen the intimate connection of contact, ensuring a perfect electrical continuity.
Selon une autre caractéristique, chaque élément de connexion électrique comprend une partie rigide en matériau électriquement conducteur (tige métallique) qui est isolée électriquement de la surface interne de la pièce la logeant. According to another characteristic, each electrical connection element comprises a rigid portion of electrically conductive material (metal rod) which is electrically insulated from the inner surface of the room housing it.
De préférence, les moyens d'isolation électrique pour l'élément de connexion comprenant la partie mobile sont faits d'un manchon rigide enveloppant la partie fixe de la tige rigide de l'élément de connexion, tandis que la partie mobile est à distance de la surface interne de la pièce. L'association de l'élément de connexion est faite au niveau de la partie fixe, celle-ci comportant un épaulement radial reposant sur le chant du manchon. Preferably, the electrical insulation means for the connection element comprising the movable part are made of a rigid sleeve enveloping the fixed part of the rigid rod of the connection element, while the mobile part is at a distance of the inner surface of the room. The association of the connection element is made at the fixed part, the latter having a radial shoulder resting on the edge of the sleeve.
Dans un mode de réalisation, les éléments de connexion électrique comportent en l'une de leurs extrémités, à l'opposé de l'extrémité libre de liaison électrique entre les deux éléments, un câble rendu solidaire de ladite extrémité cheminant dans le logement creux et comprenant en sa terminaison libre un connecteur affleurant la paroi externe de la pièce ou sortant hors de la pièce. Le connecteur du câble de chacune des pièces est destiné à être relié à un connecteur d'alimentation électrique du composant auquel est destiné à être fixée la pièce respective (du corps de bâti et respectivement du vantail à relier électriquement). Le dispositif peut intégrer dans chacune des pièces (le logement de la pièce femelle et la cavité de la pièce mâle) plusieurs éléments de connexion adjacents en étant espacés pour être isolés électriquement les uns des autres, les éléments d'une pièce étant destinés à être en regard des éléments de l'autre pièce pour former des paires d'éléments de connexion. Lorsque la pièce femelle coiffe le gond de la pièce mâle, le contact électrique entre les éléments de connexion d'une même paire est directement assuré. La taille des logements et cavité, et donc des pièces, sera adaptée pour loger plusieurs éléments. Plusieurs dispositifs peuvent être utilisés pour relier en rotation et électriquement deux composants entre eux (ou moyens électriques solidaires desdits deux composants), les deux composants étant par exemple respectivement un châssis et un vantail/ouvrant. In one embodiment, the electrical connection elements comprise at one of their ends, opposite the free electrical connection end between the two elements, a cable made integral with said path end in the hollow housing and comprising in its free end a connector flush with the outer wall of the room or out of the room. The cable connector of each of the parts is intended to be connected to a power supply connector of the component to which the respective part (of the frame body and of the door leaf to be electrically connected) is to be fixed. The device can integrate in each of the parts (the housing of the female part and the cavity of the male part) several adjacent connection elements being spaced to be electrically isolated from each other, the elements of a part being intended to be facing the elements of the other piece to form pairs of connecting elements. When the female part caps the hinge of the male part, the electrical contact between the connecting elements of the same pair is directly ensured. The size of the housing and cavity, and therefore parts, will be adapted to house several elements. Several devices can be used to connect in rotation and electrically two components together (or electrical means integral with said two components), the two components being for example respectively a frame and a leaf / leaf.

Les deux pièces 2 et 3 sont donc articulées l'une par rapport à l'autre. The two parts 2 and 3 are hinged relative to each other.
Le dispositif 1 présente une forme principale longiligne. L'une des pièces est en particulier mobile en rotation par rapport à l'autre autour de l'axe longitudinal du dispositif. The device 1 has an elongated main shape. One of the parts is in particular rotatable relative to the other about the longitudinal axis of the device.
La paumelle est de forme extérieure usuelle. Les deux pièces 2 et 3 sont de forme extérieure usuelle pour assurer de manière connue leur association mécanique et leur fonction rotative réciproque. The hinge is of usual external shape. The two parts 2 and 3 are of usual external shape to ensure in a known manner their mechanical association and their reciprocal rotary function.
La première pièce 2, dite pièce mâle, comporte de manière connue une platine de fixation 20 pour sa fixation au bâti 10, et une partie longiligne 21 s'étendant sur l'un des bords de la platine ; la partie longiligne 21 comprend d'une part un logement interne ou nœud 22 (visible sur les figures 4 et 5) et d'autre part un gond 23 externe en saillie constituant l'organe mâle de la paumelle. Le corps du gond 23 est plus étroit que le reste de la pièce de sorte à ménager dans le plan depuis lequel le gond fait saillie une surface d'appui transversale 24. La seconde pièce 3 ici la penture et dite pièce femelle, comporte de manière connue une platine de fixation 30 pour sa fixation au vantail 1 1 , et une partie longiligne 31 s'étendant sur l'un des bords de la platine ; la partie longiligne 31 comporte un logement interne ou œil 32 constituant l'organe femelle de la paumelle dans lequel s'engage le gond de la première pièce 2. The first piece 2, said male piece, comprises in a known manner a mounting plate 20 for attachment to the frame 10, and an elongated portion 21 extending on one of the edges of the plate; the elongate portion 21 comprises on the one hand an inner housing or node 22 (visible in Figures 4 and 5) and on the other hand an outer projection 23 constituting the male member of the hinge. The body of the hinge 23 is narrower than the rest of the part so as to arrange in the plane from which the hinge protrudes a transverse bearing surface 24. The second piece 3 here the hinge and said female part, comprises in known manner a mounting plate 30 for attachment to the leaf 1 1, and an elongate portion 31 extending on one of the edges of the plate; the elongated portion 31 has an inner housing or eye 32 constituting the female member of the hinge in which engages the hinge of the first part 2.
En position associée des deux pièces 2 et 3, la pièce femelle 3 est rotative librement autour de la pièce mâle 2, le gond 23 étant engagé dans le logement 32 et le chant transversal 33 du logement 32 reposant sur la surface d'appui 24. In the associated position of the two parts 2 and 3, the female part 3 is freely rotatable around the male part 2, the hinge 23 being engaged in the housing 32 and the transverse edge 33 of the housing 32 resting on the bearing surface 24.
Selon l'invention, le dispositif 1 comporte un système de connexion rapide et automatique lorsque la pièce femelle 3 s'engage sur le gond 23, c'est-à- dire qu'une fois les pièces associées mécaniquement, une liaison électrique continue est engendrée à l'intérieur des deux pièces. Chacune des pièces 2 et 3 comporte un élément de connexion électrique, respectivement 4 et 5 tel que visible isolément sur la figure 7. According to the invention, the device 1 comprises a quick and automatic connection system when the female part 3 engages on the hinge 23, that is to say once the parts mechanically associated, a continuous electrical connection is generated inside the two rooms. Each of the parts 2 and 3 comprises an electrical connection element, respectively 4 and 5 as visible in isolation in FIG.
Chaque élément de connexion électrique 4, 5 comporte un organe rigide longiligne, respectivement 40, 50, en matériau électriquement conducteur, et un câble électrique, respectivement 41 , 51 solidaire de l'une des extrémités de l'organe 40, 50. Each electrical connection element 4, 5 comprises a longiline rigid member, respectively 40, 50, of electrically conductive material, and an electric cable, respectively 41, 51 integral with one end of the member 40, 50.
L'organe 40, 50 est logé à l'intérieur des pièces, tandis que le câble électrique 41 , 51 chemine en partie à l'intérieur des pièces et sort sur l'extérieur de chaque pièce, de préférence au niveau de l'extrémité du corps de chaque pièce, à l'opposé du gond 23 et du logement 32 emmanché l'un dans l'autre. The member 40, 50 is housed inside the parts, while the electric cable 41, 51 runs partly inside the parts and leaves on the outside of each part, preferably at the end. the body of each piece, opposite the hinge 23 and the housing 32 fitted into one another.
Les câble 41 et 51 tels qu'illustrés sur la figure 3 sortent extérieurement à la paumelle et comprennent un connecteur terminal 41A, 51A, en vue d'être raccordés aux éléments électriques associés au bâti et au vantail ici non illustrés. The cables 41 and 51 as illustrated in FIG. 3 extend outside the hinge and comprise a terminal connector 41A, 51A, in view to be connected to the electrical elements associated with the frame and the leaf here not shown.
Le mode de réalisation représenté montre un câble sortant. En variante, le câble pourrait ne cheminer qu'à l'intérieur de la pièce et s'arrêter en bord du corps de la pièce sous la forme d'un connecteur femelle destinée à recevoir par enfichage un connecteur de moyens électriques associé au bâti/ au vantail. Dans une autre variante encore, l'organe rigide 40, 50 pourrait être prolongé à l'intérieur de chaque pièce et relié à une fiche de connexion interne affleurant la surface extérieure du corps de la pièce. Le gond 23 de la pièce mâle 2 comporte (figure 5) un logement creux 25 qui débouche en 25A au niveau de l'extrémité libre 25B du gond, celle destinée à être en regard du logement 32 de la pièce femelle 3. The embodiment shown shows an outgoing cable. Alternatively, the cable could run only inside the room and stop at the edge of the body of the room in the form of a female connector for receiving by plugging a connector of electrical means associated with the frame / at the door. In yet another variant, the rigid member 40, 50 could be extended inside each piece and connected to an internal connection plug flush with the outer surface of the body of the piece. The hinge 23 of the male part 2 comprises (FIG. 5) a hollow housing 25 which opens out at 25A at the free end 25B of the hinge, that intended to face the housing 32 of the female part 3.
En regard des figures 4, 5, 7, l'organe électrique 40 de la pièce mâle 2 se présente sous la forme d'une tige dont une partie 42 est fixe et l'autre partie 43 est mobile en translation longitudinalement. La partie mobile 43 prolonge la partie fixe 42 en présentant une section plus étroite de manière à coulisser en translation à l'intérieur de la partie fixe 42. With reference to FIGS. 4, 5 and 7, the electrical member 40 of the male part 2 is in the form of a rod, one part 42 of which is fixed and the other part 43 is movable in translation longitudinally. The mobile part 43 extends the fixed part 42 by having a narrower section so as to slide in translation inside the fixed part 42.
La tige 40 comporte deux extrémités opposées 40A et 40B. La première extrémité 40A est libre et destinée à venir en contact avec la tige 50 de la pièce femelle 3, tandis que la seconde extrémité 40B est connectée au câble 41 . The rod 40 has two opposite ends 40A and 40B. The first end 40A is free and intended to come into contact with the rod 50 of the female part 3, while the second end 40B is connected to the cable 41.
La tige 40 comporte dans sa zone proximale un épaulement externe 44 agencé sur la terminaison de la partie fixe 42 opposée à l'extrémité 40B, au niveau de la zone où fait saillie la partie mobile 43. La partie mobile 43 est maintenue coulissante dans la partie fixe 42, un ressort 45 étant logé entre deux butées dans le corps de la partie fixe et associé à la partie proximale de la partie mobile. Le ressort du type hélicoïdal est à l'état de repos hors utilisation du dispositif (figure 5) et est à l'état partiellement ou totalement comprimé lors de la coopération mécanique des deux pièces et de leur connexion électrique simultanée (figure 4). Les caractéristiques liées au ressort permettent une translation de la partie mobile 43 jusqu'à environ 10 mm. Ainsi, la figure 5 illustre la partie mobile 43 totalement sortie hors de la partie fixe (ressort au repos), tandis que la figure 4 illustre en position montée des pièces 2 et 3, la partie mobile 43 rentrée dans la partie fixe 42 (ressort comprimé). The rod 40 has in its proximal zone an outer shoulder 44 arranged on the end of the fixed part 42 opposite the end 40B, at the level of the area where the movable part 43 projects. The movable part 43 is kept sliding in the fixed part 42, a spring 45 being housed between two stops in the body of the fixed part and associated with the proximal part of the movable part. The spring of the type helical is in the state of rest out of use of the device (FIG. 5) and is in the partially or totally compressed state during the mechanical cooperation of the two parts and their simultaneous electrical connection (FIG. 4). The characteristics related to the spring allow a translation of the movable portion 43 to about 10 mm. Thus, FIG. 5 illustrates the movable part 43 completely out of the fixed part (spring at rest), while FIG. 4 illustrates in the mounted position parts 2 and 3, the movable part 43 retracted into the fixed part 42 (spring compressed).
La tige 40 est un matériau électriquement conducteur. Des moyens d'isolation 6 (figure 5) sont prévus dans le logement 25 entre la paroi interne, généralement métallique, du corps de la pièce 2 et la tige 40, et plus particulièrement du corps 2 et la partie fixe 42 de la tige. Ces moyens d'isolation électrique 6 servent avantageusement également de moyens de maintien de la tige 40, et plus particulièrement de la partie fixe 42 de la tige 40, dans le logement 25. The rod 40 is an electrically conductive material. Isolation means 6 (Figure 5) are provided in the housing 25 between the inner wall, generally metal, the body of the part 2 and the rod 40, and more particularly the body 2 and the fixed portion 42 of the rod. These electrical insulation means 6 advantageously also serve as means for holding the rod 40, and more particularly the fixed part 42 of the rod 40, in the housing 25.
Les moyens d'isolation 6 sont par exemple un manchon en matière plastique logé en force à l'intérieur du logement 25. Le manchon accueille la partie fixe 42 de la tige 40, l'épaulement 43 reposant sur le chant du manchon. En regard de la figure 6, la tige électriquement conductrice 50 de la pièce femelle 3 est interne au logement 32. Elle s'étend sur une partie de sa longueur en direction de l'embouchure du logement, toutefois à distance de cette dernière. En outre, la tige 50 est à distance de la paroi interne métallique du logement 32 pour assurer une isolation électrique entre la tige et la paroi. The insulating means 6 are, for example, a plastic sleeve that is forcibly housed inside the housing 25. The sleeve accommodates the fixed portion 42 of the rod 40, the shoulder 43 resting on the edge of the sleeve. Referring to Figure 6, the electrically conductive rod 50 of the female part 3 is internal to the housing 32. It extends over part of its length towards the mouth of the housing, however at a distance from the latter. In addition, the rod 50 is spaced from the metal inner wall of the housing 32 to provide electrical insulation between the rod and the wall.
Un isolant 60 est prévu entre la paroi interne de la pièce femelle 3 et la partie connectant la terminaison de la tige 30 avec le câble 51 . Avantageusement, les surfaces de contact 40A et 50A des tiges respectives 40 et 50 présentent des formes de coopération mutuelle mâle- femelle pour accentuer le contact intime des surfaces de connexion électrique. La section des surfaces 40A et 50A est par exemple de 2 mm pour le passage d'une basse tension électrique. An insulator 60 is provided between the inner wall of the female part 3 and the part connecting the end of the rod 30 with the cable 51. Advantageously, the contact surfaces 40A and 50A of the respective rods 40 and 50 have forms of male-female mutual cooperation to enhance the intimate contact of the electrical connection surfaces. The surface area 40A and 50A is for example 2 mm for the passage of a low voltage.
La mise en œuvre du dispositif est la suivante. The implementation of the device is as follows.
La pièce mâle 2 et la pièce femelle 3 de la paumelle 1 sont fixées via leur surface de fixation 20, 30 respectivement sur le bâti 10 et le vantail 1 1 . The male part 2 and the female part 3 of the hinge 1 are fixed via their attachment surface 20, respectively on the frame 10 and the leaf 1 1.
Le vantail 1 1 est amené au niveau du bâti 10 en engageant la pièce femelle 3 sur la pièce mâle 2, le gond 23 se logeant dans le logement 32. Lors du coiffage du gond 23, la tige 50 vient automatiquement en appui sur la tige 40, reliant électriquement les deux éléments de connexion des pièces respectives. The leaf January 1 is brought to the frame 10 by engaging the female part 3 on the male part 2, the hinge 23 being housed in the housing 32. When styling the hinge 23, the rod 50 is automatically supported on the rod 40, electrically connecting the two connecting elements of the respective parts.
Ensuite, si ce n'est déjà fait, les connecteurs 41 A et 51 A des câbles électriques 41 et 51 sont à raccorder aux composants électriques associés respectivement au bâti et au vantail. Then, if it is not already done, the connectors 41 A and 51 A of the electrical cables 41 and 51 are to be connected to the electrical components associated respectively with the frame and the leaf.
L'utilisateur n'a donc aucune manipulation électrique à effectuer sur l'intérieur du dispositif ou sur les éléments de connexion électrique agencés dans chacune des pièces, la liaison électrique est immédiate dès que l'opération d'association mécanique (engagement du gond dans le logement en regard) s'effectue. The user therefore has no electrical manipulation to be performed on the inside of the device or on the electrical connection elements arranged in each of the parts, the electrical connection is immediate as soon as the mechanical association operation (engagement of the hinge in the housing opposite) is carried out.
