Patent

CA 2430709

The invention relates to a fixing system comprising a metal part having a base (1) that is provided with a central opening in which a screw (9) is inserted, said screw being used to fix an accessory (10) and a piece of upholstery (11) to one such fastener. The aforementioned accessory and upholstery assembly is fixed to the corresponding panel of the vehicle body by inserting said fastener into the opening provided for this purpose on the panel (8). The fastener is provided with lateral, flexible wings (5) which are bent at the lower, free edge thereof and which terminate in flanges (7) that project outwards away from one another, thereby forming the means of fixing the fastener to the opening in the panel (8). Once the aforementioned wings (5) have been inserted in the opening and the accessory (10) and upholstery (11) have been fixed to the base (1) of the fastener, said components all remain fixed to the vehicle body. Moreover, once the screw (9) and the accessory (10) have been removed, the flanges (7), which extend below the plane of the panel (8), enable the removal of the fastener. For this purpose, a standard tool is used to bend the wings (5) and the fastener is subsequently removed from the vehicle body.

L'invention concerne un système de fixation constitué d'une pièce métallique comprenant une base (1) pourvue d'un orifice central conçu pour le passage d'une vis (9) servant à fixer un accessoire (10) et une garniture (11) sur ladite attache, ladite attache permettant de fixer l'ensemble formé par l'accessoire (10) et la garniture (11) sur le panneau (8) correpondant de la carrosserie d'un véhicule. Pour fixer cette attache, il suffit de l'introduire dans un orifice prévu à cet effet dans ledit panneau (8). L'attache comprend deux ailettes latérales flexibles (5), coudées au niveau de leur partie inférieure libre et se terminant par des pattes (7) orientées vers l'extérieur, constituant le moyen de fixation de l'attache par rapport à l'orifice du panneau (8). Une fois les ailettes (5) introduites dans l'orifice du panneau (8), l'accessoire (10) et la garniture (11) restent fixés sur la base (1) de l'attache et, par conséquent, sur la carrosserie du véhicule. Les pattes (7) de l'attache dépassent sous la surface du panneau (8). Pour démonter l'attache, il suffit de retirer la vis (9) et l'accessoire (10) et d'utiliser un outil standard pour replier les ailettes (5) et retirer l'attache de la carrosserie.
