Description

The invention relates to an actuating device for manually actuating a braking device of a vehicle. Furthermore, the invention relates to a transport safety device for use in an actuating device and a vehicle with the actuating device.

Brake transmitters for steering-guided vehicles are well known from the prior art. For example, the reference describes EP 3 736 199 A1 a hydraulic transmitter device for a hydraulic brake or clutch of a handlebar-controlled vehicle with a lever and a hydraulic cylinder which can be arranged in a handlebar tube of the vehicle.

The object of the invention is to ensure transport and safe provision of an actuating device for mounting on a vehicle while preventing fluid from escaping from a pre-filled master cylinder of the actuating device. This object is achieved by an actuating device for manually actuating a braking device of a vehicle having the features of claim 1, by a transport lock for use in an actuating device according to claim 9 and by a vehicle having an actuating device according to claim 10. Preferred or advantageous embodiments of the invention result from the dependent claims, the following description and the attached figures.

An actuating device is proposed which is designed to manually actuate a braking device of a vehicle. The actuating device is in particular a transmitter fitting which can be arranged on a steering device of the vehicle, e.g. on a handlebar, steering lever or steering wheel.

For example, the vehicle is designed as a single-lane or multi-lane vehicle. The vehicle is optionally designed as a low-floor vehicle. The vehicle is preferably designed as an electrically driven vehicle. In particular, the vehicle is designed as a small or very small electric vehicle or as an electric vehicle. The vehicles are to be understood in particular as vehicles without a seat or self-balancing vehicles with or without a seat. For example, the vehicle can be designed as an electric unicycle, e.g. as a so-called monowheel or solowheel. With two or more wheels, the vehicle is preferably designed as a bicycle, in particular as an electric bicycle, e.g. as a pedelec or as an e-bike. Alternatively, the vehicle can be designed as a multi-track bicycle, in particular with three or more wheels. For example, the vehicle can be a transport or cargo bike, in particular a motorized or electrically driven transport or cargo bike, in particular a three-wheel or four-wheel pedelec or a rickshaw, in particular with or without a roof, or a cabin scooter. Alternatively, the vehicle can be designed as a scooter, in particular as an electric motorcycle, as an electric scooter, as an electric scooter, electric scooter, electric scooter, e.g. e-scooter. It is also possible within the scope of the invention for the vehicle to be in the form of a Segway, hoverboard, kickboard, skateboard, longboard or the like.

The braking device of the vehicle comprises, for example, a shoe or disc brake which can brake the wheel of the vehicle by means of friction. A braking force is generated in particular by a slave cylinder of the braking device. The actuating device is preferably designed to generate hydraulic pressure and introduce it into the slave cylinder.

Preferably, the actuator comprises a housing made of plastics material or metal, for example aluminum alloy. In particular, the housing comprises a functional section, an essentially cylindrical section and a transition section, the functional section and the essentially cylindrical section being arranged in an L-shape with respect to one another and being connected to one another by the transition section. For example, the essentially cylindrical section has a through opening, by means of which the actuating device can be pushed onto the steering device and attached thereto.

The actuating device includes a hydraulic master cylinder for generating the hydraulic pressure and for transmitting the hydraulic pressure to the slave cylinder. For this purpose, the master cylinder can preferably be and/or is connected to the slave cylinder in terms of flow, e.g. via a fluid line. The master cylinder preferably has a pressure chamber. The pressure chamber is optionally formed by the functional section of the housing, in particular formed in it. The actuating device comprises a piston which is movably arranged in the pressure chamber. In particular, the pressure chamber is and/or can be filled with a fluid.

The actuating device includes a hand lever which can be transferred from a rest position to a working position. The hand lever is preferably arranged on the functional section or in a pivotable manner relative to it. esp In particular, the hand lever can be swiveled from the rest position to the working position.

The master cylinder is actuated when the hand lever is/is transferred to the working position. The hand lever is preferably operatively connected to the piston. The piston preferably performs a forward stroke during and/or during the transfer of the hand lever into the working position and displaces the fluid so that it flows out of the pressure chamber. When the actuator is tethered to the slave cylinder, the fluid preferably flows through the fluid line to the slave cylinder to activate it and generate the braking force.

According to the invention, the actuating device has a transport safety device. The transport safety device can be arranged in a safety position on the actuating device. The transport safety device is preferably arranged in the safety position until it is installed on the vehicle, the master cylinder is connected to the slave cylinder and/or until the actuating device is put into operation for the first time. In particular, the transport securing device is arranged in the securing position when the actuating device is not mounted on the vehicle, e.g. during transport, during storage and/or the actuating device is provided for mounting on the vehicle and/or for connecting the master cylinder to the slave cylinder.

The transport safety device is designed to block the hand lever, in particular during transport, storage and/or preparation for assembly, and/or to secure it against an unintentional transfer into the working position. In particular, the hand lever cannot be swiveled when the transport safety device is arranged in the safety position. It is advantageous that the fluid can be prevented from escaping from the pressure chamber by securing the hand lever.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the transport safety device can be arranged in the safety position by a sliding movement. The sliding movement preferably takes place in a direction which corresponds to a stroke direction of the piston when it executes the forward stroke. In particular, the transport safety device can be released again from the safety position and removed from the actuating device by being pulled out in a direction opposite to the lifting direction.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the transport securing device is pushed at least in regions into the housing, in particular into the transition section, in the securing position. In the secured position, the transport safety device is preferably arranged at least in sections in a transition or press fit in the housing, wherein it is held therein in a form-fitting manner, for example at the side. Alternatively or optionally in addition, the transport safety device is arranged in the housing so that it is secured against rotation.

In the securing position, the transport securing device is arranged in particular between the hand lever and the essentially cylindrical section. The housing, in particular the essentially cylindrical section, preferably has an end face which is directed towards the hand lever, in particular upwards. The hand lever optionally has a contact section which can preferably be pivoted together with the hand lever. For example, the contact section is formed by at least one lug protruding from the hand lever, which in the rest position of the hand lever points, e.g. downwards to the end face. It is particularly preferred within the scope of the invention that the transport safety device can be pushed into the transition section between the contact section and the end face when the hand lever is in the rest position, in order to arrange it in the safety position.

A possible constructive realization of the invention provides that the transport securing device has a plate section, in particular with an upper side pointing upwards and with a lower side pointing downwards. Optionally, the plate section is polygonal, e.g., square, pentagonal or hexagonal. The plate section can have inclined edges and/or longitudinal edges provided with bevels at an end directed in the lifting direction. Preferably, sections of the plate section are pushed into the housing, in particular into the transition section, in order to arrange the transport securing device in the securing position. In this case, the beveled edges and/or the bevels can facilitate the insertion of the plate section into the transition section of the housing and/or form a lateral positive fit between the plate section and the housing.

The plate section preferably includes a support area arranged on the upper side for the contact section of the hand lever. In particular, the contact section is supported on the support area when the hand lever is in the rest position and when the transport safety device is in the securing position. As a result, the hand lever is positively connected to the over in an advantageous manner Guide prevented from the rest position to the working position, in particular it can no longer be pivoted, so that the piston is not caused to perform the forward stroke and the fluid remains in the pressure chamber.

A further possible constructive realization of the invention provides that the plate section comprises a support area arranged on the underside. In the securing position, the bearing area preferably rests on a bearing surface of the coupling device, with the bearing surface being formed in particular by the end face. In the securing position, the plate section is preferably arranged between the end face as the bearing surface and the contact section, in which case it can be held in a form-fitting manner, for example, in particular clamped.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the support area is formed by longitudinal ribs, the longitudinal ribs being formed and/or injection molded onto the underside of the plate section and protruding from it. The longitudinal ribs preferably run along a longitudinal extent of the plate section, the plate section extending with its longitudinal extent in the lifting direction when the transport safety device is in the secured position. It is advantageous that the transport securing device, in particular the plate section, is stiffened by the longitudinal ribs and this increases resistance to loads, in particular the pressure of the hand lever against the upper side.

It is possible within the scope of the invention for folds to be provided at the ends of the longitudinal ribs arranged in the lifting direction, which are formed, for example, in an L-shape in the longitudinal section through the longitudinal ribs. In the securing position, the folds are in contact with the contact areas of the housing, in particular the transition section, and together with these form an anti-twist device against tipping to the side, upwards and downwards and/or against twisting symmetrically to a longitudinal center plane of the transport securing device.

A further preferred embodiment of the invention provides that the actuating device has a positioning foot. For example, the positioning foot is arranged on the underside of the plate section. Optionally, the positioning foot protrudes at an angle from the underside. In particular, the positioning foot borders on the longitudinal ribs, enclosing an angle of preferably at least 45 degrees, in particular at least 60 degrees and in particular at least 85 degrees and/or at most 130 degrees, preferably exactly 90 degrees. For example, the positioning foot includes a plurality of ribs or is formed from the ribs.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the positioning foot is designed to position the safety device correctly during and/or during the arrangement in the safety position, in particular during and/or during insertion between the coupling device and the hand lever. The positioning foot preferably forms an end stop, which in particular prevents the plate section from being pushed too far in the lifting direction during and/or during the positioning of the transport safety device in the safety position. The positioning foot preferably acts as an end stop with the coupling device, in particular with a side wall or lateral surface of the coupling device as the cylindrical section, for example.

A possible embodiment of the invention provides that the actuating device has a hook. Preferably, the hook is located on the underside of the panel section. In particular, the hook has elastic properties and/or it is connected to the plate section in an elastically pretensionable manner. The housing preferably has a hook receptacle, in particular in the essentially cylindrical section, which can be designed, for example, as a recess or as an opening. It is preferred within the scope of the invention that the hook is hooked into the hook receptacle in the securing position. It is advantageous that the transport safety device is thus secured against being released from the safety position, e.g. by a movement directed in the opposite direction to the lifting direction.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the plate section has a grip area. In the securing position of the transport lock, the gripping area preferably protrudes in the opposite direction from the end face and/or the contact section, so that the plate section can be easily gripped at the gripping area. In particular, the handle area facilitates the arrangement of the transport safety device, preferably pushing it into the safety position and also releasing it from the safety position by pulling the plate section in the opposite direction. Optionally, the grip area has a device to improve manual grip. This can be implemented, for example, by corrugation arranged on the top and/or bottom. Alternatively or optionally in addition, the device can comprise a gripping edge running transversely to the longitudinal extension, which is arranged, for example, on an end of the gripping area pointing in the opposite direction. Preferably, slipping when gripping of the plate section can be avoided when the transport locking device is placed in the locking position or when the actuating device is unlocked by removing the transport locking device.

A further object of the invention is a transport safety device for use in an actuating device according to the previous description and/or according to one of claims 1 to 8. In particular, the transport safety device is designed as described above.

A vehicle with the actuating device according to the previous description and/or according to one of claims 1 to 8 forms a further subject of the invention. The vehicle preferably includes the steering device, the braking device with the slave cylinder and with the hydraulic line for connecting the slave cylinder to the master cylinder of the actuating device.

Identical or corresponding parts are provided with the same reference symbols in the figures.

The 1 shows a sectional view of an actuating device 1, which is used to manually actuate a braking device of a vehicle, for example a small or very small vehicle, such as a bicycle or scooter powered by muscle power and/or electrically, in particular as a pedelec, e-bike, electric scooter or E -Scooter, trained. The braking device of the vehicle includes a friction brake and a slave cylinder for transmitting a braking force to the friction brake. The braking device also includes a hydraulic line for connecting a hydraulic master cylinder 2 of the actuating device 1 to the slave cylinder.

The actuating device 1 has a housing 4 made from an aluminum alloy with a functional section 5 and with a substantially cylindrical section 11 . The functional section 5 and the essentially cylindrical section 11 are arranged in an L-shape relative to one another, merging into one another in a transition section 31 of the housing 4 . The essentially cylindrical section 11 has a through opening 30 (see FIG 4 ) on, by means of which the actuating device 1 can be pushed and fastened over the steering device of the vehicle.

The actuating device 1 comprises a hand lever 12. The hand lever 12 can be moved from a rest position 13, as shown in FIG 1 is shown, are transferred into a working position. The hand lever 12 is pivotably connected to the functional section 5 of the housing 4 and/or arranged pivotably relative thereto. Thus, the hand lever 12 can be transferred from the rest position 13 to the working position by pivoting.

The hydraulic master cylinder 2 of the actuating device 1 is integrated in the functional section 5 of the housing 4 . The hydraulic master cylinder 2 comprises a pressure chamber 3 filled with a fluid, for example a hydraulic fluid, which is formed in the functional section 5 . The hydraulic master cylinder 2 also has a piston 6 which is arranged in the pressure chamber 3 so that it can move in a lifting direction 7 . The piston 6 is in an operative connection with the hand lever 12 . A rod-shaped actuating element 14, in particular a lever, is fastened to the hand lever 12, via which the piston 6 can be actuated when the hand lever 12 is transferred from the rest position into the working position. When actuated, the piston 4 executes a forward stroke in the stroke direction 7 in the pressure chamber 3 . When the hand lever 12 is pivoted back into the rest position, the piston 6 is reset in a direction opposite to the lifting direction 7 by means of a spiral spring 15 arranged in the pressure chamber 3 as a reset device.

The hydraulic master cylinder 2 also includes a fluidically connected to the pressure chamber 3 flow channel 8, which in a line connection 9 for connecting the fluid line of the braking device opens. When the piston 6 carries out the forward stroke in the pressure chamber 3 , it displaces the fluid arranged therein so that this flows through the flow channel 8 to the line connection 9 . If the line connection 9 is connected to the fluid line, the fluid can flow through it to the slave cylinder in order to activate it and transmit the braking force to the braking device.

The fluid line is then not connected to the line connection 9 when the actuating device 1 is not mounted on the vehicle, in particular when the actuating device 1 is transported, stored and/or made available for mounting on the vehicle. In this case, the fluid could flow out through the line connection 9, so that an unwanted leak would occur, which could impair the functionality of the hydraulic master cylinder 2.

In order to prevent the fluid from escaping and unwanted leakage, the actuating device 1 comprises a transport safety device 10. The transport safety device is according to FIG 1 arranged in a securing position 16 on the actuating device 1 . In the securing position 16, the transport securing device 10 prevents an unintentional transfer of the hand lever 12 into the working position and thus unintentional leakage.

In the securing position 16, the transport securing device 10 is arranged between the hand lever 12 and the essentially cylindrical section 11 of the housing 4, in particular by means of a sliding movement directed in the lifting direction 7 between them, at least in sections.

In the 2 the transport securing device 10 is shown in a plan view of an upper side 19 . The 3 shows a perspective plan view of an underside 20 of the transport securing device 10.

The transport securing device 10 has, as from the 2 to see a plate portion 21 on. The plate section 21 is hexagonal, having two beveled edges 25a, 25b and peripheral edges with chamfers 33 at one end pointing in the lifting direction 7 . The plate section 21 has a support area 22 arranged on the upper side 19 and a handle area 23 . The grip area 23 has a corrugation 24 arranged on the top and bottom as a device for improving the manual graspability.

According to the 3 the transport securing device 10 includes a support area 26 which is arranged on the underside 20 and is formed by a plurality of, for example three, longitudinal ribs 27 . The longitudinal ribs 27 run on the underside in sections along a longitudinal extension of the plate section 21 in the opposite direction to the lifting direction 7. The plate section 21 has a positioning foot 28 which protrudes from the underside 20 at an angle. The positioning foot 28 comprises several, for example three, standing ribs 29a, 29b, 29c. It borders on the longitudinal ribs 27 and/or merges into them. The positioning foot 28 encloses an angle of 90 degrees with the longitudinal ribs 27 .

The 4 shows the actuating device 1 with the transport safety device 10 in the safety position 16 in a perspective plan view. The hand lever 12 has two lever walls 34a, 34b which enclose a cavity between them. It has a contact section 17 which can be pivoted together with the hand lever 12 . The contact section 17 is formed by at least one, eg by two lugs. The lugs are formed on the lever walls 34a, 34b and are directed downwards towards the essentially cylindrical section 11 of the housing 4 when the hand lever 12 is in the rest position 13 . The essentially cylindrical section 11 has an end face 18 directed upwards towards the hand lever 12 (see also FIG 1 ).

How from the 1 and 4 As can be seen, the transport securing device 10 is pushed into the transition section 31 of the housing 4 in the securing position 16 . For pushing in, the transport securing device 10 can be gripped at the handle area 23, the ribbing increasing the grip of the handle area 23 and being able to prevent slipping.

When and/or while the transport securing device 10 is being pushed in, the positioning foot 28 forms an end stop which limits a pushing-in movement in the lifting direction 7 in cooperation with an outer side 32 of the essentially cylindrical section 11 . By laterally pressing the plate section 22 into the transition section 31 of the housing 4, for example along the sloping edges 25a, 25b and/or the edges of the plate section 21 provided with the chamfers, the transport securing device 10 is positively locked on both sides of the plate section 21 in the securing position 16 held.

Furthermore, the transport securing device 10 is in the securing position 16 between the contact section 17 of the lever 12 and the end face 18 of the essentially cylindrical section 11 arranged. With the support area 26 (see 3 ) the transport securing device 10 rests on the end face 18, which forms a bearing surface for the bearing area 26. The contact portion 17 is on the support portion 22 (see 2 ) of the plate section 22 and presses it against the support area 26. In particular, the transport securing device 10 is held in the securing position 16 between the contact section 17 and the support surface and within the transition section 31 in a form-fitting manner, specifically clamped. As a result, the transport safety device 10 is arranged without play in the safety position 16 so that it can completely prevent the pivoting of the hand lever 12 .

By pulling it out in the opposite direction, the transport safety device 10 can be released from the safety position 16 and removed from the actuating device 1 so that the hand lever 12 is no longer blocked and can be transferred to the working position 13 . The grip area 23 provided with the corrugation 24 protrudes in the opposite direction from the transition section 31 and makes it easier to grip the transport securing device 10 when pulling it out.

In the 5 a modified transport securing device 10 is shown in a perspective lateral top view of the underside 20 . The transport securing device 10 has a hook 35 . The hook 35 protrudes from the underside of the plate section 21 and can be elastically tilted and/or pivoted relative to it. In the lifting direction 7 , a bevel 36 , which is L-shaped when viewed from the side, is arranged at the end of each longitudinal rib 27 . At one end of the plate section 21 opposite the folds 36, a gripping edge 37 running transversely to the lifting direction 7 is arranged on the upper side of the gripping area 23 as a device for improving the manual graspability.

The 6 shows a cross section through a modified housing 4 of the actuating device 1 for use with the modified transport safety device 10 according to FIG 5 . On the cylindrical section 11 there is a hook receptacle 38 into which the hook 35 can hook. A contact area 39 is arranged on the transition section 5, against which the longitudinal ribs 27 can rest with the bevels 36 at the ends.

In the 7 12 is a sectional view of the actuator 1 with the modified housing 4 according to FIG 6 and with the modified transport safety device 10 according to the 5 shown. The modified transport safety device 10 is pushed into the transition section 31 of the housing 4 in the lifting direction 7 and assumes the safety position 16 .

During and/or during the pushing-in movement, the hook 35 is pressed elastically against the underside 20 , hooking into the hook receptacle 38 when the securing position 16 is reached. As a result, the transport securing device 10 is secured in the securing position 16 against unintentional loosening as a result of a movement in the opposite direction to the lifting direction 7 .

In the securing position 16 the bevel 36 rests in the contact area 39 . As a result, the transport securing device 10 is secured against twisting symmetrically to a longitudinal center plane and/or against tilting to the side and/or up and down.

To release the transport securing device 10 from the securing position 16, it can be gripped in the gripping area 23 and pulled in the opposite direction, with the gripping edge 37 preventing it from slipping when pulled. At the same time, the hook 35 is pressed manually against the underside 20 in order to unhook it from the hook receptacle 38 and to enable the transport securing device 10 to be pulled out.
