Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lock for a motor vehicle.
  • the invention relates to a lock of the type comprising a box secured to a first part of the vehicle, in which is disposed a bolt associated with locking and / or unlocking means, and a lock secured to a second part of the vehicle, adapted to cooperate with the bolt, one of said first and second parts of the vehicle being movable relative to the other and the bolt being mounted articulated between a release position and a latching position.
  • Locks of the state of the art have a certain number of drawbacks, in particular with regard to the locking of the keeper by the bolt which requires considerable effort, resulting for example in the need to vigorously close the tailgate of the vehicle.
  • Document US 3,321,226 illustrates a solution for the automatic closing of a moving part of a vehicle using a motorized lock.
  • a single and unique component namely a movable keeper, which is driven using a motor, ensures both the docking / hooking of a bolt secured to the movable part and the locking of this bolt when this movable part is closed. It should be noted that this strike when it secures the bolt can also be controlled manually using a key, which does not protect the lock from tampering.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to solve this kind of drawback by proposing a lock which allows the lock to be locked gently in the boltier, while retaining the effectiveness of the locking. and allowing the user to activate the unlocking means at any time.
  • the subject of the invention is a lock of a type similar to that set out in this document and of which those of the constituents necessary for the invention are recalled in the preamble to the main claim while the distinctive features of the invention emerge in particular from the characterizing part of this claim.
  • a lock according to the invention for a motor vehicle, comprises a bolt holder 1 secured to a first part 2 of the vehicle and in which a latch 3 is arranged associated with locking means and / or unlocking 4.
  • the lock also includes a keeper 5, adapted to cooperate with the bolt and secured to a second part 6 of the vehicle, for example mounted movable relative to the first part 2 thereof.
  • the bolt is mounted articulated between a release position and a locking position of the strike.
  • the bolt comprises for example two shoulders 3a and 3b intended to cooperate with an abutment surface 7 of a locking member 8 of the bolt, the bolt being urged towards its position for releasing the latch by means elastic (not shown).
  • This locking member 8 has the general shape of a U articulated at 8a in the case and urged towards the bolt to define the two positions of the latter.
  • An actuating rod 9 makes it possible to release the abutment surface 7 from the locking member of the shoulder 3a of the bolt defining the locking position of the bolt, so as to ensure the release of the keeper.
  • the lock according to the invention also comprises, arranged in the housing, a member 10 for moving the strike 5.
  • This movement member comprises means 11 for hooking this strike, and is mounted to be moved, as illustrated. in this figure, between a latching position A of the striker, this latching being produced by maneuvering the movable part of the vehicle by the user, and a locking position 8 of the striker by the bolt.
  • This movement is ensured by means of actuation means 12 controlled in one direction, that is to say from the hooking position A of the keeper 5 by the hooking means 11 of the movement member towards the locking position 8 of the strike by the bolt, by means of indicating the presence of this strike in the hooked position, and in the other direction, that is to say of the locking position 8 of the strike by the bolt towards the hooking position A, by means of indication of the actuation of the locking means 4 of the bolt.
  • These indication means are for example constituted by a switch actuated by the strike or the displacement member when the strike comes in the hooked position, for the means of indicating the presence of the strike in position d 'hooking A and by a switch actuated by said unlocking means during their actuation, for the means for indicating the actuation of the bolt unlocking means.
  • end-of-travel switches in the hooking A and locking B positions of the displacement member are provided to cut off the supply to the actuating means 12.
  • the hooking means 11 of the displacement member 10 comprise a hook, movable between an active position towards which it is resiliently stressed and in which it extends in the path of movement of the keeper 5, and a retracted position so as to allow the latching or release of the keeper.
  • the hook comprises for example an inclined surface 11a with which the keeper 5 cooperates to move the latter towards its retracted position, when the strike is hooked.
  • means 13 for retracting the displacement member are also provided for retracting the latter when the unlocking means 4 of the bolt are actuated.
  • These means are for example constituted by a cam 14 articulated on the bolt 3 and connected to the unlocking means 4 of the bolt by an operating rod 15.
  • the displacement member 10 has the general shape of an S. One of the ends thereof comprises the hooking means 11 as described above, and the other is articulated at 11b on a slide 16 mounted movable in the housing 1 by the actuating means 12, so as to cause a displacement of the movement member 10 of the keeper between the two positions mentioned above.
  • displacement member 10 is resiliently biased towards its active position by a spring 17, one end of which bears on the slide 16 and the other on the member 10.
  • the actuation means 12 mentioned above for example comprise a geared motor 18 whose output shaft cooperates with drive means 19 of the movement member 10 to move it between its two positions.
  • These drive means 19 comprise a toothed wheel 20 integral with the output shaft of the geared motor 18 and intended to cooperate with complementary forms of a drive band 21 mounted movably in a slide 22 integral with the housing 1, a end of this strip being integral with the slide 16.
  • this slide 22 extends between the two branches of the locking member 8. It goes without saying that other embodiments are possible. Thus, the slide may have come integrally with the strip.
  • the keeper When the user moves for example the mobile part of the vehicle on which the keeper is fixed towards the hooking position A, the keeper cooperates with the inclined surface 11a of the hook of the movement member 10 to move the latter towards its retracted position and allow the keeper to cross the hook and arrive in the hooking position.
  • the means for detecting the presence of the keeper in the hooking position feed the gear motor 18 in a certain direction so that it causes a displacement of the drive belt 21 and therefore of the slide 16 and from the movement member 10 to the locking position B of the striker by the bolt.
  • the movement member then automatically brings the keeper 5 into the locked position B, in which the shoulder 3a of the bolt cooperates with the abutment surface 7 of the lock member 8 to block the keeper in the locked position.
  • an end-of-travel switch detects this presence and cuts off the power to the gear motor 18 so as to stop the movement of the movement member 10.
  • the movement member 10 therefore constitutes means for assisting the movement of the keeper between a hooking position in which the keeper is brought by the user by maneuvering for example the mobile part of the vehicle, of which this strike is integral, and a position for locking this strike in the lock box, by the bolt.
  • the user can at any time during the locking cycle, release the keeper by actuating the means for unlocking the bolt.
