LOCKING SAFETY DEVICE WITH ANTI-KICKBACK EFFECT, FOR INSERTED PART ON THE BODY SHEET OF A ROAD VEHICLE

摘要

P The safety device (25) comprises a locking element (28) cooperating with the clip-on opening of a fixing clip (8). During assembly, the locking element is first of all in position cleared, under elastic tension against the body. Then, after longitudinal translation, it is drawn up by elastic return or shape memory in the operating position in this opening, with a view to providing anti-recoil security by a stop against the transverse downstream edge of the opening. operating position is carried out automatically and in advance with respect to the longitudinal locking of the insert. This invention is of interest to manufacturers, fitters and users of rods, moldings or strips which relate to the bodywork of a road vehicle.
