Description

Title of the invention: Device for fitting out a loading space of a motor vehicle Technical field of the invention

[0001] The invention relates to a device for fitting out a loading space of a motor vehicle. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle, in particular a load-carrying vehicle, comprising such a fitting out device. State of the prior art

[0002] Load-carrying vehicles, more commonly referred to as "pick-ups", include a large loading space at the rear of a passenger compartment. This loading space includes a loading platform that is generally open upwards, framed by two side panels and a rear panel for securing a load. The rear panel is generally pivoted about a transverse axis between a vertical position and a horizontal position, so as to facilitate loading a load onto the loading platform. To transport particularly bulky loads, pick-up users usually leave the rear panel in a horizontal position. However, this has disadvantages since the load is no longer secure and risks escaping from the loading platform when the vehicle accelerates and / or following jolts.

[0003] To overcome this problem, loading platform extension devices commonly referred to as "bed extenders" have been proposed. These extension devices comprise a removable barrier that extends directly above the rear dropside when it is in a horizontal position. Publications CA2366149A1 and US9156507B1 disclose such extension devices. However, known extension devices are complex to manufacture and handle. In addition, they do not always allow the load positioned on the platform to be properly secured and therefore only offer partial safety to users of vehicles equipped with these extension devices. Finally, these devices are also very bulky. Presentation of the invention

[0004] The aim of the invention is to provide a device for fitting out a loading platform of a motor vehicle which overcomes the above drawbacks and improves the fitting out devices known from the prior art.

[0027] [Fig.l] schematically illustrates a rear part of a motor vehicle 1 of the load carrier type, also called of the "pick-up" type. The vehicle 1 comprises a loading space 2 at the rear of a passenger compartment 3. The loading space 2 comprises a loading platform 4 open upwards, that is to say not covered by a roof. The loading platform 4 is framed by a left side panel 5G, a right side panel 5D, a rear side panel 6 and a partition wall 7 separating the loading space 2 from the passenger compartment 3. The frame of the loading platform 4 makes it possible to secure a load positioned on the loading platform 4, that is to say it makes it possible to prevent the load from falling off the loading platform, for example under the effect of jolts and / or accelerations of the vehicle 1.

[0028] In this document, the X axis designates the longitudinal axis of the vehicle 1. When moving forward and in a straight line, the vehicle 1 moves from the rear to the front in a direction parallel to its longitudinal axis. The X axis is oriented from the front to the rear of the vehicle, that is to say in the direction of reverse travel. The Y axis designates the transverse axis of the vehicle. The Y axis is oriented from left to right, left and right being defined according to the point of view of a driver of the vehicle. The Z axis designates the axis perpendicular to the X axis and the Y axis. The vehicle is considered to be resting on horizontal ground. The Z axis is a vertical axis, oriented from bottom to top. The X, Y and Z axes form an orthogonal reference frame.

[0029] The loading platform 4 extends across the width of the vehicle 1 and comprises a generally horizontal plate, in particular of generally rectangular shape. The loading platform 4 may comprise various ribs.

[0030] The left side panel 5G and the right side panel 5D extend generally parallel to the X axis and the Z axis on either side of the loading platform 4. The left side panel 5G and the right side panel 5D are positioned respectively above a left rear wheel and a right rear wheel of the vehicle. They each comprise a wheel arch 8G, 8D, that is to say a conformation adapted to go around a wheel of the vehicle. These conformations project towards the loading space. The wheel arches 8G, 8D may comprise interfaces for fixing means for suspending the rear wheels of the vehicle.

[0031] The loading platform 4, the sides 5G and 5D form a structure of the vehicle, that is to say a part of the vehicle which is rigid and integral with the body of the vehicle. This assembly can be formed by folding, cutting and assembling one or more metal sheets. The partition wall 7 can also be part of this structure.

[0032] The rear side panel 6 is pivotally hinged about a transverse axis Yl, parallel to the Y axis, between a vertical position and a horizontal position (shown in particular in [Fig.l]), so as to facilitate the loading of a load onto the loading platform 4. The rear side panel 6 is pivotally hinged relative to the loading platform 4 by means of two hinges 9. When the rear side panel is in the horizontal position, it extends in line with the loading platform 4. When the rear side panel is in the vertical position, it extends generally parallel to the Y axis and to the Z axis, between a rear edge of the left side panel 5G and a rear edge of the right side panel 5D. The rear side panel 6 may comprise a panel, in particular made of plastic or metal. The rear side panel 6 may comprise locking means adapted to fix the rear side panel in the vertical position.The rear tailgate 6 may comprise a handle adapted to unlock said locking means. The rear tailgate 6 may also bear, on its rear face, inscriptions including a registration plate and / or a logo and / or a vehicle model name. This rear face is only visible to other motorists when the rear tailgate is in the vertical position.

[0033] According to the invention, the vehicle 1 comprises a device 10 for arranging the loading space 2. As we will see later, this loading device 10 advantageously makes it possible to enlarge a useful loading volume. The vehicle 1 is thus particularly suitable for transporting large loads.

[0034] In addition to the structure previously described, the arrangement device 10 comprises: - a first left panel 1 IG linked to the structure, in particular linked to the left side panel 5G, by a pivot connection around a first left vertical axis ZI G between a folded position and an unfolded position, - a second left panel 12G linked to the first left panel 1 IG by a pivot connection around a second left vertical axis Z2G between a folded position and an unfolded position, - a first right panel 11D linked to the structure, in particular linked to the right side panel 5D, by a pivot connection around a first right vertical axis Z1D between a folded position and an unfolded position, and - a second right panel 12D linked to the first right panel 11D by a pivot connection around a second right vertical axis Z2D between a folded position and an unfolded position.

[0035] The arrangement device 10 therefore comprises four articulated panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D. Each panel 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D may comprise a plate, in particular of generally rectangular shape. Each plate may be made of plastic material and / or metal. Each plate may be solid as shown in the figures, or alternatively be perforated, or even meshed. Each panel may comprise a height along the Z axis less than or substantially equal to the height of the side panels 5G, 5D along the Z axis.

[0036] In Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4, only the left panels 1 IG and 12G are shown. In the remainder of the description, the main focus will be on describing the left panels 1 IG and 12G, knowing that the right panels 11D and 12D are designed symmetrically. Thus, all the characteristics of the left panels can be transposed to the right panels. In the figures and in the remainder of the description, the elements described in relation to the left part of the vehicle and / or in relation to the left panels are identified with the suffix "G". The equivalent elements of the right part of the vehicle and / or of the right panels are identified with the same reference sign but by replacing the suffix "G" with the suffix "D".

[0037] In relation to figures 2, 3 and 4, the first left panel 1 IG is connected to the left side panel 5G by means of a first left rotational articulation 14G around the first left vertical axis ZI G. The first left vertical axis ZI G and the second left vertical axis Z2G are arranged along two opposite lateral edges of the first left panel 1 IG. The second left vertical axis Z2G is arranged along a first lateral edge of the second left panel 12G. The second left panel 12G comprises a free edge 13G opposite its first lateral edge.

[0038] In relation to Figures 5 and 6, the first left articulation 14G comprises a left support 15G fixed to the left side panel 5G by a fixing element 16G, and a first left rod 17G extending along the first left vertical axis Z1G. The first left rod 17G is supported by the left support 15G and passes through a vertical opening 18G provided along a side edge of the first left panel 1 IG. The left support 15G is preferably fixed at a rear edge of the left side panel 5G, for example halfway up the rear edge of the left side panel 5G.

[0039] The first left panel 1 IG is connected to the second left panel 12G by means of a second rotational joint 19G. The second rotational joint 19G comprises a second left rod 20G extending along the second left vertical axis Z2G. The second left rod 20G passes through vertical openings 21 G, 22G provided in knuckles 23G, 24G formed at a lateral edge of the first left panel 1 IG and respectively of the second left panel 12G. The knuckles 23G extend perpendicular to the main plane in which the first panel 1 IG extends. The first left panel 1 IG thus generally has the shape of an L. In the folded position, the second left panel 12G extends into the hollow of the "L" shape. Thus, the assembly formed by the left panels 1 IG and 12G is particularly compact.

[0040] The assembly formed by the first left panel 1 IG and the second left panel 12G can be unfolded in accordance with the kinematics illustrated in figures 2, 3 and 4.

[0041] [Fig.2] illustrates the first left panel and the second left panel in folded position. When the first left panel 1 IG and the second left panel 12G are in the folded position, the second left panel 12G extends between the left side panel 5G and the first left panel 1 IG. The two panels 1 IG and 12G then extend substantially parallel to the X and Z axes. The second left panel 12G is thus sandwiched between the left side panel and the first left panel 11G, which prevents it from unfolding. Advantageously, the fitting device 10 may comprise a single first left fixing means 25G for fixing both the first left panel 1 IG and the second left panel 12G in the folded position. The first left fixing means 25G may be secured to the loading platform 4, as shown in [Fig.l]. Alternatively or additionally, the first left fixing means 25G could be secured to the left side panel 5G.The first left fixing means 25G can cooperate with the first left panel 1 IG, the second left panel 12G or even with the second left rod 20G.

[0042] In the folded position, the panels 1 IG and 12G extend between a rear edge of the left side panel 5G and the left wheel arch 8G. The panels 1 IG and 12G thus occupy volumes of the loading space which are usually little used for loading objects due to the presence of the wheel arches 8G, 8D which hinder access to them.

[0043] [Fig.3] illustrates the first left panel 1 IG in the unfolded position and the second left panel 12G in folded position. Between its folded position and its unfolded position, the first left panel 1 IG can pivot by approximately 180° around the first left vertical axis Z1G. In this configuration, the two panels 1 IG and 12G also extend substantially parallel to the X and Z axes. By "approximately 180°", it is understood that the first left panel can pivot by an angle of between 120° and 240° inclusive between its folded position and its unfolded position, or even an angle of between 150° and 210° inclusive. The rotation of the first left panel 1 IG from its folded position to its unfolded position is possible when the rear drop side 6 is in the horizontal position. Advantageously, the fitting device 10 further comprises a second left fixing means 26G configured to fix the first left panel in the unfolded position. The second left fixing means 26G can be secured to the rear side panel 6.In particular, the second left fixing means 26G can be arranged at a left rear corner of the rear side panel 6 when it is in a horizontal position.

[0044] [Fig.4] illustrates the first left panel and the second left panel in the unfolded position. Between its folded position and its unfolded position, the second left panel 12G can pivot by approximately 90° around the second left vertical axis Z2G. In this configuration, the first left panel 1 IG extends substantially parallel to the X and Z axes and the second left panel 12G extends substantially parallel to the Y and Z axes. By "approximately 90°", it is understood that the second left panel can pivot by an angle of between 60° and 120° inclusive between its folded position and its unfolded position, or even an angle of between 75° and 105° inclusive.

[0045] [Fig. 5] illustrates the arrangement device 10 with the four panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D in the unfolded position. In this configuration, the four panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D are positioned above the rear drop side 6 in a horizontal position. The left free edge 13G extends opposite the right free edge 13D, which makes it possible to close the loading space at the rear of the vehicle 1. By "opposite", it is understood that the left free edge 13G extends a short distance from the right free edge 13D, in particular less than 5 cm along the Y axis, preferably less than 2 cm along the Y axis. More preferably, the left free edge 13G is in contact with the right free edge 13D at at least one point, or even over the entire top of the free edges 13G and 13D. Advantageously, and as can be seen in [Fig.5], the second left panel 12G and the second right panel 12D comprise an overlapping zone 27 when they are in the unfolded position.This overlapping area 27 may comprise a third fastening means 28 configured to fasten the second left panel to the second right panel, thereby making it possible to maintain the second left panel and the second right panel in the unfolded position. The third fastening means 28 may, for example, comprise a fastening clip and / or a system. hooks and / or a crossbar capable of being fixed to each of the two panels 12G, 12D. As we will see later, other embodiments are possible for fixing the second left panel and the second right panel in the unfolded position.

[0046] An embodiment of the first left fixing means 25G is described with reference to FIGS. 7 and 8. This fixing means 25G is intended to cooperate with a lower end of the second left rod 20G to fix the first left panel 1 IG and the second left panel 12G in the folded position.

[0047] [Fig.7] illustrates the lower end of the second left rod 20G. The lower end of the second left rod comprises a locking element 28G in the shape of an inverted "T". This locking element 28G may be for example a metal piece fixed to the lower end of the second left rod 20G.

[0048] [Fig. 8] illustrates the first left fastening means 25G cooperating with the locking element 28G. The first left fastening means 25G is integral with the loading platform 4 and is arranged near the left wheel arch 8G. It comprises a stud 29G, for example of truncated cone shape, projecting upwards provided with an oblong opening 30G on its upper face. When the locking element 28G is correctly oriented relative to the oblong opening 30G, the locking element can be inserted into the stud 29G by a downward translational movement of the second left rod 20G, as indicated by an arrow F1 in [Fig. 8]. The second left rod 20G can then be pivoted a quarter turn around the axis Z2G as indicated by the arrow F2 in [Fig.8], to block the locking element 28G inside the stud 29G.Advantageously, the upper end of the second left rod 20G comprises a handle 31G to facilitate its operation by the user of the vehicle. The first left fixing means 25G can advantageously be equipped with a return means configured to exert an upward thrust on the second left rod 20G, to prevent it from pivoting and coming out of the oblong opening in an untimely manner. According to an alternative embodiment, the fixing means 25G could be embedded in the thickness of the loading platform 4.

[0049] The second left fastening means 26G preferably has a shape identical to the first left fastening means 25G and is also intended to cooperate with the locking element 28G. The fastening means 25G and 26G can be fixed on the loading platform on an arc of a circle centered on the first vertical axis ZI G. According to one embodiment, other fastening means of identical shape could be arranged on this arc of a circle to allow the fastening of the first left panel 1 IG in an intermediate position between its folded position and its unfolded position.

[0050] According to one embodiment, the two panels 12G and 12D could be fixed in unfolded position via the rear side panel 6. The free ends 13G and 13D of the second left panel 12G could then each be equipped with a third rod of identical or similar shape to the second rod 20G. The fixing of the panels 12G and 12D in the unfolded position could be carried out by means of this third rod cooperating with a third fixing means secured to the rear side panel 6, this third fixing means having a shape identical to the fixing means 25G previously described. In this case, the third fixing means could be arranged substantially towards the center of the free edge of the rear side panel 6. According to this embodiment, the two panels 12G and 13G could not be fixed to each other in the unfolded position. Their respective free edges 13G, 13D could then extend a short distance from each other.

[0051] [Fig.9] illustrates in side view the rear part of the vehicle with the panels 1 IG, 12G, 11D, 12D in the unfolded position. It is observed that there is a space between the surface of the loading platform 4 and the lower edge of each panel. This allows the panels to be pivoted easily without risk of collision with the ribs formed on the surface of the loading platform or with the fastening means arranged on the loading platform. As a note, the second rods 20G, 20D not only allow the first panel to be locked in the unfolded position but also provide vertical support for the panels in the unfolded position.

[0052] [Fig. 10] illustrates in top view the rear part of the vehicle with the panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D in the unfolded position. The panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D are positioned above the rear dropside 6 in a horizontal position. More precisely, the first left panel 1 IG extends substantially above a left edge of the rear dropside 6. The first right panel 11D extends substantially above a right edge of the rear dropside 6. The second left panel 12G and the second right panel 12D extend in the same plane, substantially above a rear edge of the rear dropside 6.

[0053] Advantageously, the second left panel 12G and / or the second right panel 12D further comprises a support for an inscription, in particular a support for a registration plate and / or a standardized symbol for indicating a long vehicle. The registration plate and / or the standardized symbol may be affixed to a fixed support, for example riveted, screwed or clipped to the second left panel 12G and / or to the second right panel 12D. When the vehicle is used with the rear tailboard 6 in a horizontal position, these inscriptions are visible to other motorists. This makes it possible to use the vehicle 1 in compliance with motor vehicle legislation.

[0054] [Fig. 11] illustrates in top view the rear part of the vehicle with the panels 1 IG, 12G, 11D, 12D in a secondary position distinct from the unfolded position. In this configuration, the panels 11G, 12G, 11D, 12D extend above the loading platform 4 and the left free edge 13G extends opposite the right free edge 13D. The panels 1 IG and 11D are slightly pivoted relative to their folded position. On the other hand, the panels 12G and 12D are pivoted by approximately 270° relative to their folded position. Advantageously, secondary fixing means, similar to the fixing means 25G previously described, may be provided to fix the panels 11G, 11D and / or the second panels 12G, 12D in their secondary position. This configuration makes it possible to compartmentalize the loading platform 4. It therefore makes it possible to maintain small loads and to prevent these loads from being tossed around on the loading platform under the effect of accelerations and / or jolts of the vehicle.

[0055] To obtain the configuration of [Fig. 10] from the configuration where the panels 1 IG, 12G, 11D, 12D are in the folded position, the first panels 1 IG, 11D are pivoted through approximately 90°. There is then sufficient space to pivot the second panels 12G, 12D, for example through at least approximately 90°. This operation may require lowering the rear side panel 6. Then the first panels 1 IG, 11D are pivoted again in the direction of the side panels 5G, 5D until they reach the position shown in [Fig. 11]. The panels 1 IG, 11D can then be locked in this position with the fixing means provided for this purpose. Then, the pivoting of the second panels 12G, 12D can be continued until they reach the position shown in [Fig.l 1]. The panels 12G, 12D can then be fixed to each other or fixed to the loading platform 4. The rear drop side 6 can then be pivoted into a vertical position..

[0056] Finally, thanks to the invention, a device 10 for fitting out the loading space 2 of the vehicle is provided which is both simple to manufacture and simple to use. The fitting out device folds very easily when not in use and also deploys very easily to enlarge the loading space. Stabilizing the fitting out device in the folded or unfolded configuration requires a limited number of fixing means.
