Description

L'invention concerne une serrure pour porte de véhicule automobile du type comprenant un levier d'ouverture depuis l'extérieur du véhicule et un or­gane de commande depuis l'intérieur du véhicule permettant l'ouverture, le verrouillage et le déverrouillage de la serrure par l'intermédiaire d'un câble Bowden entraînant un cavalier coopérant avec ledit levier et ledit organe.The invention relates to a lock for a motor vehicle door of the type comprising an opening lever from outside the vehicle and a control member from inside the vehicle allowing the opening, locking and unlocking of the lock by through a Bowden cable driving a jumper cooperating with said lever and said member.

Une telle serrure à cable, décrite par exemple dans le brevet EU-A-0169644, offre l'avantage important, par rapport aux serrures à tringles, d'admettre facilement les tolérances de fabrication et de permettre l'adaptation d'une même serrure sur des véhicules différents.Such a cable lock, described for example in patent EU-A-0169644, offers the important advantage, compared to rod locks, of easily admitting manufacturing tolerances and of allowing the same lock to be adapted. on different vehicles.

On a également proposé ( par exemple brevet FR-A-2 506 374) de donner aux serrures d'un véhicule automobile équipé d'un verrouillage centralisé une position de condamnation dans laquelle la serrure ne peut pas être ouverte depuis l'intérieur, ce qui augmente la sécurité contre le vol puisque, même après avoir cassé une vitre, le voleur ne peut pas ouvrir les portes du véhicule.It has also been proposed (for example patent FR-A-2 506 374) to give the locks of a motor vehicle equipped with a central locking a locking position in which the lock cannot be opened from the inside, this which increases security against theft since, even after breaking a window, the thief cannot open the doors of the vehicle.

La présente invention vise à donner à une serrure à câble du type décrit à l'introduction une possibilité de condamnation, avec des moyens simples, sûrs et économiques.The present invention aims to give a cable lock of the type described in the introduction a possibility of locking, with simple, safe and economical means.

A cet effet, la serrure selon l'invention est caractérisée par le fait que l'extrémité dudit câble Bowden adjacente audit organe de commande est logée entre les branches d'une pièce de condamnation en forme générale de U dont le fond est en appui sur ledit cavalier et qui peut basculer sur ce fond, une branche de ladite pièce coopérant avec un arrêt dudit câble, un poussoir de condamnation étant prévu pour coopérer avec l'autre branche pour faire basculer ladite pièce et écarter la première branche dudit arrêt du câble.For this purpose, the lock according to the invention is characterized in that the end of said Bowden cable adjacent to said control member is housed between the branches of a generally U-shaped locking piece whose bottom is supported on said jumper and which can tilt on this bottom, a branch of said piece cooperating with a stop of said cable, a locking pusher being provided to cooperate with the other branch to tilt said piece and spread the first branch of said cable stop.

Lorsque le poussoir est en position de condamnation, le câble Bowden n'est plus arrêté et la poignée intérieure reliée à l'autre extrémité du câble peut être déplacée sans que le câble entraine l'organe de commande et le levier d'ouverture. Au contraire, si le poussoir est en position de décondamnation, l'arrêt de la première branche de la pièce de condamnation arrête le câble Bowden et la manoeuvre de la poignée intérieure entraîne l'organe de commande et le levier d'ouver­ture.When the pusher is in the locked position, the Bowden cable is no longer stopped and the inner handle connected to the other end of the cable can be moved without the cable driving the control member and the opening lever. On the contrary, if the pusher is in the unlocking position, the stopping of the first branch of the locking piece stops the Bowden cable and the operation of the interior handle drives the control member and the opening lever.

Le poussoir de condamnation peut être commandé par un actionneur élec­trique ou pneumatique. Dans le cas d'une serrure de porte avant,pour au moins celle du conducteur, le poussoir de condamnation peut être actionné mécaniquement, de préférence sous la commande d'un verrou à barillet. Avantageusement, le verrou de commande du poussoir de condamna­tion commande également le verrouillage et le déverrouillage centralisé du véhicule.The locking button can be controlled by an electric or pneumatic actuator. In the case of a front door lock, for at least that of the driver, the locking button can be actuated mechanically, preferably under the control of a barrel lock. Advantageously, the control lock of the locking push-button also controls the central locking and unlocking of the vehicle.

L'invention prévoit en outre, pour assurer le retour du câble Bowden, d'intercaler un ressort hélicoïdal de compression entre le fond de la pièce de condamnation et l'extrémité du câble Bowden.The invention further provides, to ensure the return of the Bowden cable, to insert a helical compression spring between the bottom of the locking piece and the end of the Bowden cable.

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivante faite en se référant au dessin annexé dans lequel:

  • - la figure 1 est une vue schématique en plan d'une serrure selon un exemple de réalisation de l'invention,
  • - la figure 2 est une vue schématique en coupe selon la ligne II-II de la figure 1, certaines pièces étant représentées en élévation, la serrure étant déverrouillée, et
  • - les figures 3 à 7 sont analogues à la figure 2, pour diverses positions de la serrure.
The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description made with reference to the appended drawing in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of a lock according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention,
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view along line II-II of FIG. 1, certain parts being shown in elevation, the lock being unlocked, and
  • - Figures 3 to 7 are similar to Figure 2, for various positions of the lock.

La serrure selon l'exemple décrit est du type décrit et représenté au brevet EU-A-0169644. Dans cet exemple, la serrure est destinée à être montée sur une porte côté conducteur, avec une commande de verrouillage - ­déverrouillage par un barillet à clé ( non représenté ).The lock according to the example described is of the type described and shown in patent EU-A-0169644. In this example, the lock is intended to be mounted on a door on the driver's side, with a locking-unlocking command by a key cylinder (not shown).

La serrure comprend une platine 1 enfermant le mécanisme de serrure com­prenant un pêne pivotant 2 verrouillable par un cliquet 3. Un levier 4, relié à une poignée extérieure ( non représentée) coopère avec un axe 5 logé dans une fenêtre 6 en forme de L du levier 4. Lorsque l'axe 5 est logé dans la branche inférieure de la fenêtre 6 ( position de déverrouil­lage), il sert d'axe de pivotement au levier 4 alors que, quand l'axe 5 est logé dans la partie horizontale ( sur le dessin) de la fenêtre 6 (position de verrouillage) le levier 4 pivote autour d'un axe 7 soli­daire du cliquet 3.Dans le premier cas, la rotation du levier 4 entraine le cliquet 3 par butée sur l'axe 7 et le cliquet 3 libère le pêne 2. Dans le second cas, le levier 4 n'entraîne pas le pêne 3.The lock comprises a plate 1 enclosing the lock mechanism comprising a pivoting bolt 2 lockable by a pawl 3. A lever 4, connected to an external handle (not shown) cooperates with an axis 5 housed in an L-shaped window 6 of the lever 4. When axis 5 is housed in the lower branch of window 6 (unlocking position), it serves as a pivot axis for lever 4 whereas, when axis 5 is housed in the horizontal part (on the drawing) of the window 6 (locking position) the lever 4 pivots about an axis 7 secured to the pawl 3.In the first case, the rotation of the lever 4 causes the pawl 3 to stop on the axis 7 and the pawl 3 releases the bolt 2. In the second case, the lever 4 does not drive the bolt 3.

Un organe de commande 8 commande le déplacement de l'axe 5 dans ses posi­tions de verrouillage et de déverrouillage. L'organe de commande 8 est commandé par un câble Bowden 9 coulissant dans une gaîne 10 solidaire du boîtier 1. L'extrémité du câble 9 extérieure au boîtier 1 est solidaire d'une poignée ( non représentée) intérieure au véhicule. Le câble 9 est logé dans un cavalier 11 muni d'un arrêt 12 coopérant avec une butée 13 de l'organe de commande 8. Le cavalier 11 comporte en outre un second arrêt 14 coopérant avec une butée 15 du levier 4.A control member 8 controls the movement of the axis 5 in its locked and unlocked positions. The control member 8 is controlled by a Bowden cable 9 sliding in a sheath 10 secured to the housing 1. The end of the cable 9 outside the housing 1 is secured to a handle (not shown) inside the vehicle. The cable 9 is housed in a jumper 11 provided with a stop 12 cooperating with a stop 13 of the control member 8. The jumper 11 further comprises a second stop 14 cooperating with a stop 15 of the lever 4.

Lorsque le câble 9 est solidaire du cavalier 11 et l'entraîne en transla­tion, il commande le déverrouillage en entraînant l'organe 8 puis, après compression d'une ressort 16, il entraine le levier 4 et provoque donc l'ouverture.When the cable 9 is integral with the jumper 11 and drives it in translation, it controls the unlocking by driving the member 8 then, after compression of a spring 16, it drives the lever 4 and therefore causes the opening.

L'organe 8 peut être déplacé entre ses positions de verrouillage et de déverrouillage par un actionneur ( non représenté) agissant sur une échan­crure 17 ou par un levier 18 commandé par un verrou à barrillet ( non repré­senté).The member 8 can be moved between its locking and unlocking positions by an actuator (not shown) acting on a notch 17 or by a lever 18 controlled by a barrel lock (not shown).

La structure qui vient d'être décrite est connue par le brevet EU-A-O 169 644.The structure which has just been described is known from patent EU-A-O 169 644.

Conformément à l'invention, une pièce de condamnation 19, en forme générale de U, est en appui par son fond 20 contre le cavalier 11.La branche in­férieure ( sur le dessin) 21 de la pièce 19 comporte un retour échancré 22 qui, en position de décondamnation (figure 2),coopère avec un arrêt 23 de l'extrémité du câble 9 qui est logée dans la pièce 19. L'autre branche 24 de la pièce 19 n'est pas enfoncée par un poussoir de condamnation 25.According to the invention, a locking piece 19, in the general shape of a U, is supported by its bottom 20 against the rider 11. The lower branch (in the drawing) 21 of the piece 19 has a scalloped return 22 which, in the unlocked position (FIG. 2), cooperates with a stop 23 at the end of the cable 9 which is housed in the part 19. The other branch 24 of the part 19 is not pressed in by a locking push-button 25.

Dans cette position de décondamnation, si la serrure est déverrouillée ( figure 2 ), la serrure peut être ouverte aussi bien de l'extérieur que de l'intérieur. En effet, une traction sur le câble 9 vers la gauche ( sur le dessin), entraine la pièce 19 qui pousse le cavalier 11.In this unlocking position, if the lock is unlocked (Figure 2), the lock can be opened both from the outside and from the inside. Indeed, a pull on the cable 9 to the left (in the drawing), leads to the part 19 which pushes the jumper 11.

Si, dans cette même position de décondamnation, la serrure est verrouillée ( figure 3 ),la commande extérieure ne peut ouvrir la serrure du fait du déplacement de l'axe 5, comme expliqué plus haut. Par contre, une traction sur le câble 9 produit le déverrouillage puis l'ouverture de la serrure,le cavalier 11 étant poussé par la pièce 19. Le déverrouillage et l'ouverture depuis l'intérieur sont possibles, si le verrouillage a été fait avec une personne à l'intérieur du véhicule.If, in this same unlocking position, the lock is locked (FIG. 3), the external control cannot open the lock due to the movement of the axis 5, as explained above. On the other hand, a pull on the cable 9 produces the unlocking and then the opening of the lock, the jumper 11 being pushed by the part 19. Unlocking and opening from the inside are possible, if the locking has been done with a person inside the vehicle.

Si, la serrure étant verrouillée, la condamnation a été effectuée ( figures 4 et 5) par descente du poussoir 25, celui-ci a appuyé sur la branche su­périeure 24 de la pièce 19, laquelle a basculé autour de son fond 20, fai­sant échapper le retour 22 de la branche inférieure 21 d'avec l'arrêt 23 de l'extrémité du câble 9. Si on tire sur le câble 9 par action sur la poignée intérieure ( figure 5), le câble 9 coulisse librement sans entraîner le ca­valier 11, de sorte que la serrure ne peut être ni déverrouillée ni ouverte de l'intérieur.If, the lock being locked, the locking was carried out (Figures 4 and 5) by lowering the pusher 25, the latter pressed on the upper branch 24 of the part 19, which tilted around its bottom 20, making escape the return 22 of the lower branch 21 with the stop 23 of the end of the cable 9. If the cable 9 is pulled by action on the interior handle (FIG. 5), the cable 9 slides freely without driving the jumper 11, so that the lock cannot be unlocked or opened from the inside.

Pour des raisons pratiques, il est nécessaire de pouvoir ouvrir au moins la porte conducteur lorsque le système de condamnation est en panne en po­sition de condamnation. Cependant, par sécurité, il faut que la porte ainsi ouverte puisse être refermée, puis réouverte depuis l'intérieur, puis être verrouillée depuis l'extérieur.For practical reasons, it is necessary to be able to open at least the driver's door when the locking system is faulty in the locking position. However, for security reasons, the door thus opened must be able to be closed, then reopened from the inside, then be locked from the outside.

Ces possibilités sont permises grâce à la configuration particulière de la pièce 19 et du poussoir 25 qui va maintenant être décrite. La branche supérieure 24 de la pièce de commande 19 est plus courte que la branche inférieure 21 et comporte une encoche longitudinale d'extrémité 26. Le poussoir 25 comporte une tête 27 de plus grand diamètre.These possibilities are allowed thanks to the particular configuration of the part 19 and of the pusher 25 which will now be described. The upper branch 24 of the control piece 19 is shorter than the lower branch 21 and has a longitudinal end notch 26. The pusher 25 has a head 27 of larger diameter.

En partant de la position de verrouillage - condamnation de la figure 4, une action sur le levier 18 pour le passage de la serrure en position déverrouillage fait coulisser l'ensemble cavalier 11 - pièce 19 vers la gauche ( sur le dessin) et permet le déverrouillage puis l'ouverture. Au cours de cette translation, les bras supérieur 24 échappe au poussoir 25. Le conducteur peut pénétrer dans son véhicule et refermer la porte. Pour ressortir, il tire sur la poignée intérieure, qui tire le câble 9 jusqu'à ce que son arrêt 23, après avoir repoussé le bras inférieur 21 contre l'action d'un ressort 28 intercalé entre le fond 20 et l'arrêt 23, vienne s'encliqueter dans le retour 22 du bras 21 ( figure 6 ). En continuant à tirer sur la poignée intérieure, le câble entraine le levier d'ouverture 4. L'utilisateur peut refermer la porte puis agir sur le levier 18 pour le ramener en position de verrouillage. Au cours de ce mouvement, la pièce 19 est ramenée vers la droite et l'encoche 26 de la branche 24 vient entourer le poussoir 25 au-dessus de la tête 27 ( figure 7). La serrure est verrouil­lée mais le poussoir 25 n'a plus d'action de condamnation.Starting from the locking position - locking of Figure 4, an action on the lever 18 for the passage of the lock in the unlocking position slides the jumper assembly 11 - part 19 to the left (in the drawing) and allows the unlocking then opening. During this translation, the upper arm 24 escapes the pusher 25. The driver can enter his vehicle and close the door. To come out, he pulls on the inner handle, which pulls the cable 9 until its stop 23, after pushing the lower arm 21 against the action of a spring 28 interposed between the bottom 20 and the stop 23 , snaps into the return 22 of the arm 21 (Figure 6). By continuing to pull on the interior handle, the cable drives the opening lever 4. The user can close the door then act on the lever 18 to bring it back to the locked position. During this movement, the part 19 is brought back to the right and the notch 26 of the branch 24 surrounds the pusher 25 above the head 27 (FIG. 7). The lock is locked but the pusher 25 no longer has a locking action.

L'action de verrouillage - déverrouillage peut être bien entendu exercée directement sur l'organe de commande 8, par un actionneur ou par un verrou à barillet. Le poussoir de condamnation 25 peut être commandé par un action­neur, qui peut éventuellement occuper en outre une position de verrouillage et une position de déverrouillage de la serrure. Il peut aussi être comman­dé mécaniquement.The locking - unlocking action can of course be exerted directly on the control member 8, by an actuator or by a barrel lock. The locking push-button 25 can be controlled by an actuator, which can optionally also occupy a locking position and an unlocking position of the lock. It can also be controlled mechanically.
