Description

Locking system for deactivating the bonnet lock control lever

Technical field

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a locking system for a vehicle bonnet lock control lever by means of a locking mechanism securing the control lever in a deactivated position by a lock cylinder.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Until now, a simple system has been used to unlock the bonnet lock, in which the lock control lever is located in the interior of the vehicle on the inner Asloup or under the steering wheel on the dashboard and is easily accessible and in no way secured. Bowden transmits the pivoting movement of the lever to the lock where it unlocks its latch. The disadvantage of this simple system is the absolute resistance to intrusion into the engine compartment, where the control unit is located, when the car immobilizer is deactivated and stolen.

Another known device for securing the hood of a vehicle, which is opened by means of a cable from the interior, is the use of a second securing cable guided from the interior of the vehicle. The latter comprises a pair of sliders mounted slidably in the console, one of which is coupled to the car bonnet lock latch and the other slider coupled to the additional lock mechanism, the other slider being slidably mounted in the path of the first slider. The first slider is spring-loaded and is connected by a cable to the latch to which the bonnet lock cable operated from the interior by a control lever is fastened to the other side. The first rider is provided with a groove into which the front of the second rider engages in a locked state. The disadvantage of this solution is that the lock can be opened by a lever from the interior in case of a forced break of the belay cable.

This disadvantage is overcome by a solution having a notch on each of the sliders for the arresting member, and the two sliders are supported in parallel and spring-loaded by a separate spring. The disadvantage of this solution is that even if the safety wire is forcibly interrupted, even the owner of the key from the additional lock device will not enter the engine compartment.

Another solution allows locking the bonnet lock control lever itself. This lock will completely prevent you from moving the control lever and hence opening • · · ·

- 2 bonnet from interior without key. The disadvantage of this solution is that in case of improper handling or ignorance of the vehicle with this unconventional system of locking the control lever lock of the bonnet of the vehicle during violent manipulation the control lever can be torn off and the bonnet can be completely opened.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

These drawbacks are largely overcome by the vehicle bonnet lock release lever control system, which locks the transmission mechanism in a position that does not allow the pivoting movement of the control lever to the vehicle hood lock control cable. The whole system consists of a base plate to which a support plate is rotatably mounted by means of a screw, on which a deactivable arm is riveted in the movable axis, at the end of which the control cable passing through the bowden is fixed. Further, the system consists of a lock cylinder provided with an extension provided with an eccentrically located pin on its end wall which fits into an elongated hole formed on the support plate. A torsion spring mounted on the base plate boss returns the pivot shaft to a rest position, one end of which has a lever on the outside of the base plate and the active arm is attached at the other end of the pivot shaft.

Overview of the figure in the drawing

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. Fig. 2 is an axonometric view of the locking mechanism from the front of the vehicle, ie from the interior of the vehicle; Fig. 2 is an axonometric view of the locking mechanism in the locked rear position; 5 shows a side view of the mechanism in the unlocked position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The locking mechanism 1 of the control lever 2 consists of a base plate 3 to which a support plate 5 is rotatably mounted in the axis 03 by means of a screw 4 and two sliding bushes 14. A rotatable shaft 6 extends through the base plate 3. At one end of the shaft 6. On the outside of the base plate 3, a control lever 2 is fastened. On the inside of the base plate 3 at the other end of the shaft 6, an active arm 7 is fastened by screw 17 which is returned to its original position by a torsion spring. 15. The lock plate 8, which is provided with an extension 9 having an eccentrically positioned pin 10 on the front wall, also extends through the base plate 3. The pin W is slidably guided in an elongated hole 18 formed in the support plate 5, which is rotatably mounted on the base plate 3 by means of a bolt 4 and sliding bushes 14. A deactivable arm 11 is rotatably mounted on the support plate 5. a cable 12 extending through the bowden cable 13 which is fixed to the base plate 3. The deactivable arm 11 is provided with a pin 19.

When the control lever 2 is locked, the deactivable arm U-pin 19 is located outside the field in which the active member 7 is rotated, and thus the active member 7 cannot act on the deactivable arm 11-pin 19 and subsequently open the bonnet lock. When the lock cylinder 8 is rotated to the unlocked position, the pin 10 moves the support plate 5 to the side and the axis oi moves to a position coincident with the axis o1, thereby positioning the pin 19 of the inactivable arm 11 in the field in which the active member 7 rotates. the member rests on the pin 19 of the inactivatable arm U and thus can interact by pulling the control lever 2 over the inactivable arm 11 by the cable 12 and thereby opening the bonnet lock.
