Abstract: A device for spacing an openable element apart from a stationary element which includes an integral attachment sub-assembly intended for being attached to the openable element or to the stationary element and which includes at least one frame including at least one first side edge and at least one second side edge, a first main fin and a second main fin, said first main fin and second main fin each extending between the first side edge and the second side edge such as to define a sliding section therebetween, said first main fin and second main fin being provided with a means to resist movement intended for engaging with a complementary means for resisting movement of a complementary attachment sub-assembly intended for being attached to the stationary element or the openable element.

Abstract: A temporary closure device for an opening element on a fixed chassis part of a motor vehicle, in which the opening element includes a housing for receiving a lock and the fixed part includes at least one tapped hole for fixing a strike. The device includes a plastic body equipped with means for mounting it in the tapped hole. An end of the device includes a limit stop element that co-operates with a first rim of the housing as the opening element is closed, while another end of the device includes a means for retaining the opening element in the closed position against the fixed part, which is intended to penetrate the housing behind a second rim thereof. The retaining means is formed by a resilient tongue, which can bend under stress from the second rim when the opening element is moved from the free position to the closed position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a lock (3) for a device (1) for temporarily spacing an opening element with respect to a fixed element of a motor vehicle body, said lock comprising, on the one hand, locking means (21, 23) designed so that they can deform elastically under the action of the stresses exerted by the opening element and, on the other hand, a substantially cylindrical pedestal (14) provided with fastening means (16, 17, 27) which can be activated by pivoting the pedestal about its axis. The present invention also relates to a base (2) intended to cooperate with a lock according to the invention.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (1) acting as a stand-off holding a door away from a frame, comprising a yoke (2) for attaching to the frame, and a support element (4) for attaching to the door, the support element being extended by a guide (3) comprising a contact zone broken down into a first and a second track (22, 23) running respectively on each side of ramps (21), the yoke being fitted with a follower element (10) designed to travel along the contact zone so that the opening element can be positioned alternately in a closed position or in an open position, characterized in that the guide is designed in such a way that the contact zone is created in a housing that has at least one overlapping wall (17) protecting the said contact zone from any splashes and/or any unwanted deposition of dirt.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (1) for temporarily spacing an opening element away from a fixed element of a motor vehicle bodywork (15), comprising a mount (2) that bears means (3, 4) of attachment allowing the device to be anchored in the fixed element, and blocking means (6) designed to be able to deform elastically, characterized in that it comprises locking means (8, 10, 12, 13) capable of moving from an initial unlocked position in which the blocking means put up minimal resistance towards the opening element, to a locked final position in which the blocking means prevent the said opening element from moving back.

Abstract: The present invention relates, on the one hand, to a device (1) for locking an opening element (3) with respect to a fixed element (23) of a motor vehicle body, characterized in that it is intended to be fixed on a wall (3a) of the opening element or of the fixed element, and in that it comprises at least one stop means (5) designed to cooperate elastically with at least one complementary stop means (31), attached to the fixed element or to the opening element respectively, so as to allow the retention of said opening element, and relates, on the other hand, to a corresponding spacing device.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device (1) for spacing and temporarily locking into a pseudo-closed position an opening element (6) on a fixed element (3) of a motor vehicle body, comprising a fixing plate (2) for anchoring the device in the fixed element and a stop element (4) adapted to serve as support for the opening element and having one first end (11) attached to the fixed plate. The invention is characterized in that the stop element has an intermediate part (12) stretching in a direction substantially perpendicular to the fixing plate and terminated by a second end (13) curved towards the fixing plate (2), the intermediate part and the second end being configured so as to be accommodated between the fixed element and the opening element in the pseudo-closed position and to provide a space for receiving a rim (6b) thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for temporarily spacing an opening element with respect to a fixed element of a motor vehicle body, comprising, on the one hand, a fastening plate and, on the other hand, a stop element adapted to serve as a bearing support for the opening element, where the fastening plate is designed so as to engage with a wall of the fixed element, thereby blocking the spacing device in at least one direction, and in that said device has at least a second fastening point situated at a distance from the fastening plate and designed so as also to engage with a wall of the fixed element, thereby providing retention at least in the additional direction or directions.

Abstract: The invention relates to a temporary closure device for an opening element (1) on a fixed chassis part (5) of a motor vehicle, in which the opening element (1) comprises a housing (2) for receiving a lock and the fixed part (5) comprises at least one tapped hole (6) for fixing a strike. The inventive device comprises a plastic body (11) which is equipped with means (13; 16; 17) for mounting same in the tapped hole (6). In addition, a first end (11a) of the device comprises a limit stop element (18) which is intended to co-operate with a first rim (3) of the housing (2) as the opening element (1) is being closed, while the second end (11b) of the device comprises a means (19) for retaining the opening element (1) in the closed position against the fixed part (5), which is intended to penetrate the housing (2) behind a second rim (4) thereof.
