Description

The The invention relates to an adjustment system for a motor vehicle door with a double-stranded windows and a door lock according to the generic term of claim 1 and characterized by a high degree of integration the for the adjustment system necessary parts.

Out DE 202 18 679 U1 is a combined drive unit for an aggregate, z. As a window, and a door lock, wherein a switching unit is provided for selectively acting on the window regulator or the door lock. The switching unit is controlled via the door operating lever. When the door handle is operated, the driving force from the switching unit is directed to the door lock. The power window can only be operated if the door handle remains unactuated.

According to one embodiment the above-described technical solution is a single-strand cable window lifters provided, the cable loop with a drive in conjunction stands, in turn, on the housing of the door lock outsourced. The separate guide rail of the cable window lifter At the ends Seilumlenkelemente (eg pulleys) and is - before the Installation of the combined drive system - via the rope loop with the Locks flexibly connected.

Of the Invention is based on the object that a double-stranded window and a door lock including improving adjusting system of a motor vehicle door, in particular to increase the degree of integration.

According to the invention Problem solved by the combination of features of claim 1. The dependent claims specify preferred variants of the invention.

Therefore it is envisaged that this has a double-stranded window Adjusting system is constructed such that the lock holder with the lock-side guidance area directly connected to a structural and functional unit is. Thus, it becomes possible a stationary area of the ansich belonging to the closing system part to the functional part of the window lift to some. Or in other words: The lock holder and the lock-side guide area of the window lifter now form a structural unit.

Ideally is the structural unit of lock holder and schlossseitigem Leadership area in Shape of a plastic molded part or a light metal casting one piece designed to reduce assembly costs. It is also advantageous into the structural unit consisting of lock holder and lock-side guide area a part of the lock housing, of the drive housing for the Window lift drive and / or the housing for an electronic control unit to integrate.

Furthermore can additionally further functional elements or systems on the lock-side guide area be attached or integrated. Exemplary his following Parts called: door exterior handle holder, a cover or the like for the lock for protection against the manipulation of the castle, means of guiding the adjacent side window edge, electrical traces for the power supply and / or for signal transmission, and elements for the water management.

Especially in the formation of the double-stranded Window lifters in the form of a cable window lifter can reduce it the transport volume and to simplify the handling of advantage be, if the lock holder and lock-side guide area existing structural unit in addition Wearing fixation elements or integrated, which is used for fastening the second guide region are suitable for said structural unit. Such a "folding" of the double-stranded cable window lifters for the Transport is done in a simple way by the flexible Bowden cables between allows the two leadership areas.

Additionally offers it is, even the inner opener and the drive unit of the window regulator via suitable fixing means temporary at the first or second guide area attach to a defined positioning of the corresponding parts to achieve and thus facilitate the final assembly. Other fixatives can for attachment of Bowden cables and electrical cables.

at a cable window lifter, the lock-side guide area, So the structural unit, which also has the lock holder, Wear means for rope deflection. These can be pulleys or slider elements be. In the case of slider elements, these can be integrally in the structural unit to be integrated, if you consider the structural unit formed as a plastic injection molded part or as a light metal casting.

In particular, in the formation of the structural unit as a plastic injection molded part, it is advantageous to connect the means for cable deflection in the attachment of the adjustment directly to the door body or connectable to the door body part. This ensures that the Seilumlenkkräfte be introduced directly into the door body, without taking the detour over the relevant management area.

In In this context, the high degree of integration already common today retained the lock holder and the lock-side guide area as a U-shaped Umgriff the lateral edge of the window pane are formed. According to a preferred variant of the invention, it is provided that the associated Takers with the management area not in a direct forced-guided Intervention is, but only the Verstellkräfte in the area the lower edge of the window initiates. The driver of the second management area is, however, form-fitting with the extending in the direction of displacement of the window slidably rail-like portion of the second guide portion and forced in connection. Thus, only in this case a guide is made in the vehicle longitudinal direction, so that misalignment in the parallelism of the two management areas in the U-shaped Embracing the side window edge in the area of the first guide area the designated unit can be compensated.

According to one another preferred embodiment the invention based on a made of plastic lock side guiding region should the other (ie the second) leadership area in the area of Mass center of the window pane can be arranged, and indeed especially if the attachment of the lock-side means Do not carry out the rope deflection on the door body can. So should overload the lock-side plastic guide area be prevented.

Around an unstable, tilting the window pane around the vehicle transverse axis To avoid tilting disc connection, the second, preferably made of a metallic material guide region arranged such be that 60% - 80% % of the wheel weight and the first (lock-side) guidance area 20% - 40% of the disc weight carries.

The Principle of the invention leaves also on other double-stranded ones Apply window lift principles, in particular to those in which the driving force over Racks, spindles, flexible toothed belts or the like transmitted becomes.

8th Single-stranded adjustment system with an integration of the mounting plate carrying the drive unit in the structural unit of guide and lock holder;
This in 1 shown adjustment system connects a made of plastic or made of light metal highly integrated lock holder 10 with a leadership area 1 a double-stranded cable window lifter. The highly integrated lock holder 10 not only wears the lock 100 , He has in one piece a variety of other functional elements. This includes

• - the interface for the outside handle holder 110 .
• - the bridges 15 , which together with the base of moving in the direction of the windowpane 3 extending management area 1 form a U-shaped grip for the side window edge and record a glass guide seal (see also 1a )
• - Covers for theft protection and for the water management as well
• - various attachment points 11 . 12 for connection of the structural unit to the door body, possibly also the attachment through the axis of rotation of the pulley.

This highly integrated lock holder 10 has in the adjustment on sufficiently large extensions, so that Seilumlenkrollen 1a . 1b could be placed on it. This succeeds in the otherwise separate lock holder and the otherwise separate lock side. guide rail 1 to produce as a structural unit. Furthermore, this gives for the first time the opportunity to provide a very complex and at the same time compact and cost-effective adjustment system for motor vehicle doors. Such functionality has hitherto only been known in connection with complex module carriers.

The out of the structural unit of lock-side window regulator guide area 1 and lock holder 10 existing part of the adjustment system is via the Bowden cables 150 with the second guide area 2 and the drive unit 4 connected to a mounting plate 4 with integrated gearbox and attached motor 42 and electronics unit 43 having. About the attachment points 41 the drive unit is fixed to a supporting part of the door body.

At the second guidance area 2 The double-stranded window regulator is one with the rope section 140 and the lower edge of the window 3c connected driver 14 forcibly guided both in the vehicle longitudinal direction, as well as in the vehicle transverse direction, wherein parts of the guide area 2 with the driver 14 form a positive sliding rail area. The lock-side guidance area 1 assigned drivers 13 is indicated only schematically; he will not be at the management level 1 positively guided, but only transmits the cable section 130 introduced adjusting force on the window pane 3 ,

A door opener 120 is over a Bowden cable 121 with the castle 100 in operative connection and is also part of the illustrated preassembled and pretestable adjustment system.

This in 2 shown adjusting system corresponds essentially to that of 1 , wherein the second guide area 2 is arranged at about 60% - 80%, preferably 2/3 of the weight of the window glass and the coupling of the over the upper cable deflection 2 B guided rope end directly into the drive unit. In this cable guide unnecessary friction losses in the Bowden tubes 150 avoided and the lock-side management area 1 significantly less burdened, especially since the weight was reduced here to about 20% - 40%, preferably 1/3 of the weight of the disc. So can for the lock-side guidance area 1 even less resilient materials are used.

The adjustment system according to 3 is like that of 2 much as possible. It is, however, a mounting plate 4 provided with a circumferential sealing contour for sealing a (not shown) mounting opening in a wet / dry space separation of a motor vehicle door. On the dryroom side of the mounting plate 4 For example, the motor and the electronic control unit are arranged to provide these electrical components and their interfaces in dry room design by the mounting plate 4 from the wet room side over the attachment points 41 ' attached to the wet / Trockenraumtennung (eg door inner panel) and the mounting hole is sealed.

To the door inner opener 120 to give a secure grip during transport, carries the base of the door inner opener 120 a bracket 122 , whose free end form-fitting and releasable according to the principle of a clip connection with the second guide region 2 can be engaged.

4 shows an adjustment system in which the drive 4 supporting mounting plate 40 in the lock-side guidance area 1 is integrated, but otherwise the adjustment system of 2 equivalent. The assembly of this adjustment system in a motor vehicle door with two mounting holes, as in the schematic representation of 4a shown (looking at the wet room side of the door inner panel), can be done in two ways.

1st way:

If the adjustment system is to be mounted from the dry-room side in the cavity formed by the inner door panel and the outer door panel, the adjusting system is initially through the mounting opening 62 to introduce into the cavity of the door box. Then the engine 42 and the control unit 43 through the mounting hole 60 threaded and the mounting plate 40 with their attachment point with respect to the attachment points 61 the mounting hole 60 brought in cover. Subsequently, the fixation is done by means of screws or rivets. The management areas 1 and 2 are fixed in the door via appropriately provided attachment points. Finally, the mounting hole 62 closed by a cover plate, not shown.

In the event that the mounting space in within the door box, in particular transversely to the door level, for the handling of a fitted with the drive and electronics mounting plate 40 insufficient, a subsequent assembly of drive and electronics can be done from the dry room side, after the mounting plate 40 from the wet room side on the Montgeöffnung 60 was mounted.

2nd way:

If the vehicle door has a removable door outer panel, the adjustment system can directly on the inside door panel from the wet room side 6 be put on, the engine 42 and the electronic control unit 43 through the mounting hole 60 be threaded and the mounting plate 40 with their attachment point with respect to the attachment points 61 the mounting hole 60 comes in cover. Subsequently, the fixation of the mounting plate 40 be made. The management areas 1 and 2 are fixed in the door via appropriately provided attachment points. The introduction opening 62 is superfluous in this case.

The peculiarity of the adjustment system according to 5 is that both leadership areas 1 and 2 in the form of U-shaped embraces the lateral disc edges 3a and 3b are formed and arranged in the lateral edges of the vehicle door. Both drivers 13 and 14 ' are not in a forced-guided engagement with the respectively assigned management area 1 . 2 but transferred essentially unguided the adjustment of the cable sections on the window pane.

The schematic representation of 6 shows a double-stranded rack windows, which formed as racks guide areas 1'' and 2 '' on a common mounting plate 40 '' are arranged and preferably with the lock holder 10 '' form a unitary assembly of plastic. In the toothings of the racks 1'' . 2 '' grip gear elements 5a . 5b one whose bearing points in the with the window pane 3 connected drivers 13 '' . 14 '' are integrated. The driving force is from a motor 42 generated and on the two gear elements 5a . 5b distributed by means of a transmission element. The in the area of the castle 100 '' integrated lock holder 10 '' Of course, can also form a part of the lock housing or the housing of the electronic control unit.

Another embodiment is shown in the schematic representation of 7 shown. Accordingly, the two lead management areas 1''' and 2 ''' one fixed spindle each 1A . 2 B on which spindle nuts 420a . 420b rotatably store, in turn, by separate engines 42a . 42b are driven. The described drives form a structural unit with the drivers 13 ''' . 14 ''' or are otherwise associated with them. At the lock-side guidance area 1''' is a lock holder 10 ''' for receiving the lock 100 ' attached or integrated.

It should be noted that, of course, in the embodiments according to the 6 and 7 further functional elements in the lock-side guide area 1'' . 1''' can be integrated, as already related to 1 explained.

8th shows a single-strand cable window lifter with integrated lock holder 10 and with a likewise integrally integrated mounting plate 40 in which a part of the gear housing of the window lifter drive 4 is trained. Otherwise, the structure is essentially the same as in 4 described variant. The management area 2 should preferably be designed such that a forced operation with an associated driver on the type of guide area 2 is guaranteed, such as in 1 indicated and described in the accompanying text. In this way, a sufficient guidance of the window in the vehicle longitudinal direction can be ensured without the need for additional means suitable for this purpose must be provided.
