Obj should be mode "in out".

I can't say I've ever tried to have a function return a protected type. I think 
you'll need to do

begin
    return R : Essai (D1 => V);
end Essai;

But I think it would be better in this case to expose the discriminant:

type Essai (D1 : Natural) is limited private;

Then clients have to provide the value they would pass to Constructor as the 
discriminant:

E : Essai (D1 => V);

which does what you want and is simpler.
