Abstract
Kühlergrill (2) für ein Kraftfahrzeug (1) mit einem Rahmen (3) und mit mehreren innerhalb des Rahmens (3) angeordneten Rippen (4), wobei zumindest ein Teil des Kühlergrills (2) in Fahrtrichtung (x) des Kraftfahrzeugs (1) nach vorne ausfahrbar ist, wobei beim Ausfahren zumindest des Teils des Kühlergrills (2) der von Luft durchströmbare Querschnitt des Kühlergrills (2) veränderbar ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der in Fahrtrichtung (x) des Kraftfahrzeugs (1) nach vorne ausfahrbare Teil des Kühlergrills (2) ein Kühlerschutzgitter (6) mit Rippen (4) aufweist und mit einem nach hinten verfahrbaren oder verstellbaren Teil des Kühlergrills (2), welches Stempelteile (7) des Kühlergrills (2) aufweist, gekoppelt ist, und dass der nach hinten verfahrbare oder verstellbare Teil des Kühlergrills (2) mittels einer Verstelleinrichtung (5) verstellbar ist.Radiator grill (2) for a motor vehicle (1) with a frame (3) and with a plurality of ribs (4) arranged within the frame (3), at least part of the radiator grill (2) in the direction of travel (x) of the motor vehicle (1) Can be extended to the front, wherein when the at least part of the grille (2) is extended, the cross-section of the grille (2) through which air can flow can be changed, characterized in that the part of the grille which can be extended to the front in the direction of travel (x) of the motor vehicle (1) (2) has a radiator grille (6) with ribs (4) and is coupled to a part of the radiator grille (2) which can be moved or adjusted to the rear and which has stamp parts (7) of the radiator grille (2), and that which can be moved to the rear or adjustable part of the grille (2) is adjustable by means of an adjusting device (5).
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Kühlergrill für ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einem Rahmen und mit mehreren innerhalb des Rahmens angeordneten Rippen nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a radiator grille for a motor vehicle with a frame and with a plurality of ribs arranged within the frame according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
Ein gattungsgemäßer Kühlergrill ist aus der
Bezüglich des weiteren Standes der Technik hinsichtlich Kühlergrills von Kraftfahrzeugen sowie hinsichtlich Verfahren und Vorrichtungen zur Verbesserung des Fußgängerschutzes bei Kraftfahrzeugen wird auf die
Der Schutz von Fußgängern im Falle von Kollisionen mit Kraftfahrzeugen wird ein immer wichtigeres Thema, insbesondere da die Vorschriften in diesem Zusammenhang immer schärfer werden. Neben dem Schutz des Kopfes und des Oberkörpers der Person spielt auch der Schutz der Hüfte eine wichtige Rolle. Viele Kraftfahrzeuge sehen jedoch keinen Hüftschutz vor, was unter anderem daran liegt, dass zum Schutz der Hüfte einer Person relativ viel Deformationsraum vorgehalten werden muss.Protecting pedestrians in the event of a collision with a motor vehicle is becoming an increasingly important issue, especially as the regulations in this regard become increasingly stringent. In addition to protecting the person's head and upper body, protecting the hip also plays an important role. However, many motor vehicles do not provide hip protection, which is partly due to the fact that a relatively large amount of deformation space must be kept in order to protect the hip of a person.
Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Kühlergrill für ein Kraftfahrzeug zu schaffen, mit dem eine Verbesserung des Fußgängerschutzes erreicht werden kann.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a grille for a motor vehicle with which an improvement in pedestrian protection can be achieved.
Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe durch die in Anspruch 1 genannten Merkmale gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features mentioned in claim 1.
Durch die erfindungsgemäße Ausfahrbarkeit zumindest eines Teils des Kühlergrills in Fahrtrichtung des Kraftfahrzeugs nach vorne wird zusätzlicher Deformationsraum generiert, wodurch ein besserer Fußgängerschutz erreicht wird. Gleichzeitig kann beim Ausfahren zumindest des Teils des Kühlergrills der von Luft durchströmbare Querschnitt des Kühlergrills verändert werden, so dass der Kühlergrill beispielsweise nur in denjenigen Zuständen ausgefahren werden kann, in denen ein erhöhter Bedarf an Kühlluft vorhanden ist. Dadurch lässt sich der erfindungsgemäße Kühlergrill beispielsweise so auslegen, dass er in seinem Ruhezustand in einem verhältnismäßig großen Umfang oder sogar ganz geschlossen ist, was den Luftwiderstandsbeiwert des Kühlergrills verringert und damit zur Kraftstoffersparnis beiträgt.The inventive extensibility of at least part of the radiator grille in the direction of travel of the motor vehicle to the front generates additional deformation space, as a result of which better pedestrian protection is achieved. At the same time, when the at least part of the grille is extended, the cross section of the grille through which air can flow can be changed, so that the grille can only be extended, for example, in those states in which there is an increased need for cooling air. As a result, the grille according to the invention can be designed, for example, in such a way that it is in its idle state to a relatively large extent or even completely closed, which reduces the drag coefficient of the grille and thus contributes to fuel savings.
Eine sehr einfach zu realisierende Ausführungsform der Erfindung kann darin bestehen, dass wenigstens eine der Rippen in Fahrtrichtung des Kraftfahrzeugs nach vorne ausfahrbar ist.A very simple embodiment of the invention can consist in that at least one of the ribs can be extended forward in the direction of travel of the motor vehicle.
Des Weiteren kann eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung darin bestehen, dass der Rahmen mit den Rippen in Fahrtrichtung des Kraftfahrzeugs nach vorne ausfahrbar ist. Durch das Ausfahren des gesamten Rahmens des Kühlergrills mit den darin angeordneten Rippen wird der Deformationsraum zur Verbesserung des Fußgängerschutzes besonders einfach und wirkungsvoll erhöht.Furthermore, an advantageous embodiment of the invention can consist in that the frame with the ribs can be extended forward in the direction of travel of the motor vehicle. By extending the entire frame of the radiator grille with the ribs arranged in it, the deformation space is increased particularly simply and effectively in order to improve pedestrian protection.
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den restlichen Unteransprüchen. Nachfolgend sind Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnung prinzipmäßig dargestellt.Further advantageous refinements and developments of the invention result from the remaining subclaims. Exemplary embodiments of the invention are shown in principle with reference to the drawing.
