Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Betätigungsvorrichtung für ein Fahrzeug-Ausstellfenster der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten und aus der US-PS 4,186,524 hervorgehenden Art.The invention relates to an actuating device for a vehicle opening window of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1 and resulting from the US-PS 4,186,524.

Die in dieser Druckschrift offenbarte Betätigungsvorrichtung dient zum Verlagern eines sich im hinteren Seitenbereich eines Personenkraftwagens befindenden Ausstellfensters zwischen der Schließlage und der Offenlage. Dabei besteht die Betätigungsvorrichtung im wesentlichen aus einer Gewindestange, welche über ein elektromotorisch angetriebenes Zahnrad längsverlagert wird und einem mit der Gewindestange starr verbundenen biegsamen Kabel. Dieses führt zu einem am hinteren Tragpfosten des Personenkraftwagens befestigten Aufnahmeteil, in dem ein biegesteifes, bogenförmiges Endteil längsverschiebbar angeordnet ist, das seinerseits mit dem biegsamen Kabel verbunden ist. Ferner ist an dem bogenförmigen Endteil eine Kugel ausgebildet, die in einer Kugelpfanne gelagert ist, welche sich ihrerseits in einer am Ausstellfenster angebrachten Lagerung befindet. Da die Kugel des bogenförmigen Endteils in Schließlage und Offenlage des Ausstellfensters in Fahrzeugquerrichtung jeweils unterschiedliche Lagepunkte einnimmt, muß die Kugelpfanne in der fensterseitigen Lagerung etwa in Fahrzeuglängsrichtung längsverschiebbar gelagert sein. Dadurch ist die fensterseitige Lagerung des Endteils sehr bauaufwendig gestaltet und daher teuer herzustellen sowie auch störanfällig im Betriebseinsatz. Schließlich hat auch die Lagerung ein verhältnismäßig hohes Gewicht.The actuating device disclosed in this document serves to move an opening window located in the rear side area of a passenger car between the closed position and the open position. The actuating device essentially consists of a threaded rod which is displaced longitudinally via an electromotive driven gear and a flexible cable rigidly connected to the threaded rod. This leads to a receiving part fastened to the rear support post of the passenger car, in which a rigid, curved end part is arranged so as to be longitudinally displaceable, which in turn is connected to the flexible cable. Furthermore, a ball is formed on the arcuate end part, which is mounted in a ball socket, which in turn is located in a mounting attached to the opening window. Since the ball of the arcuate end part in the closed position and open position of the opening window in the vehicle transverse direction each have different position points occupies, the ball socket must be mounted in the window-side storage approximately in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. As a result, the window-side mounting of the end part is designed to be very complex in construction and therefore expensive to manufacture and also prone to failure during operation. Finally, the storage has a relatively high weight.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, ein Betätigungselement für ein Fahrzeug-Ausstellfenster der im Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 genannten Art derart auszubilden, daß das Ausstellfenster mit einfachen und optisch unauffälligen Mitteln, jedoch zuverlässig verlagerbar ist und darüber hinaus sicher in Schließlage gehalten werden kann.The object of the invention is therefore to design an actuating element for a vehicle opening window of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1 in such a way that the opening window can be relocated with simple and optically unobtrusive means, but can also be reliably moved and can also be held securely in the closed position.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe sind die im Patentanspruch 1 dargelegten Merkmale vorgesehen.To achieve the object, the features set out in claim 1 are provided.

Da das Übertragungselement aus einem biegsamen, jedoch schub- und zugfest ausgebildeten Material besteht, kann es bei Längsverlagerungen in einem Führungsrohr vorteilhafterweise mit seinem Endabschnitt unmittelbar am Ausstellfenster befestigt werden. Dabei werden die sich zwischen der Schließlage und der Offenlage des Ausstellfenster ergebenden, unterschiedlichen Lagepunkte der fensterseitigen Befestigungsstelle des Übertragungselements durch dessen Flexibilität, also selbsttätig ausgeglichen, so daß auf eine komplizierte fensterseitige Anbringung des Übertragungselements verzichtet werden kann. Zur Erzielung der Schub- und Zugfestigkeit des biegsamen Kunststoffs kann dieser faserverstärkt oder auch mit mindestens einem Stahlseil versehen sein. Dieses ist gemäß den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 2 zentrisch in den biegsamen Kunststoff eingebettet und ragt dabei über die dem Ausstellfenster gegenüberliegende Stirnseite des Übertragungselements hinaus.Since the transmission element consists of a flexible, but shear and tensile material, it can advantageously be attached directly to the opening window with its end section in the event of longitudinal displacements in a guide tube. The resulting different position points of the window-side fastening point of the transmission element between the closed position and the open position of the opening window are automatically compensated for by its flexibility, so that a complicated window-side attachment of the transmission element can be dispensed with. To achieve the shear and tensile strength of the flexible plastic, it can be fiber-reinforced or provided with at least one steel cable. This is embedded centrally in the flexible plastic according to the features of claim 2 and protrudes over the the front side of the transmission element opposite the opening window.

Das Übertragungselement ist zum motorischen Längsverlagern in einem Führungsrohr mit einer Gewindestange dreh- und zugfest verbunden, wobei die beiden, einen gleich großen Außendurchmesser aufweisenden Teile auch koaxial zueinander verlaufen. Dabei ist in die Gewindestange eine axial verlaufende Schraube eingesetzt, die ihrerseits mit einer stirnseitigen Sacklochbohrung versehen ist. In diese ist das über das Übertragungselement stirnseitig hinausragende Stahlseil eingesetzt und durch radiales Zusammendrücken des Endabschnitts der Schraube dreh- und zugfest festgelegt. Damit sich die Stirnseite der Gewindestange nicht in die Stirnseite des Übertragungselements eingraben kann, befindet sich zwischen den beiden Teilen eine von der Schraube durchsetzte Scheibe (Merkmale der Patentansprüche 3 und 4).The transmission element is connected in a guide tube to a threaded rod so as to be non-rotatable and tension-resistant for longitudinal displacement in the motor, the two parts, which have the same outer diameter, also run coaxially with one another. An axially extending screw is inserted into the threaded rod, which in turn is provided with a blind hole on the end face. The steel cable protruding over the end of the transmission element is inserted into this and fixed in a rotationally and tensile manner by radially compressing the end section of the screw. So that the end face of the threaded rod cannot dig into the end face of the transmission element, there is a disk through which the screw passes between the two parts (features of patent claims 3 and 4).

In dem das Übertragungselement aufnehmenden Führungsrohr befindet sich auch die Gewindestange, wobei diese einen radial abstehenden Führungsstift aufweist, der in eine längsverlaufende Führungsnut des Führungsrohrs eingreift; hierdurch ist die Gewindestange drehfest festgelegt. Diese wird über ein Ritzel eines fahrzeugaufbaufesten Elektromotors angetrieben (Merkmale der Patentansprüche 5 und 7).The threaded rod is also located in the guide tube receiving the transmission element, said threaded rod having a radially projecting guide pin which engages in a longitudinal guide groove of the guide tube; the threaded rod is thereby fixed in a rotationally fixed manner. This is driven by a pinion of an electric motor fixed to the vehicle body (features of claims 5 and 7).

In Schließlage des Ausstellfensters erstreckt sich das Führungsrohr zweckmäßigerweise bis nahe zur Befestigungsstelle des Übertragungselements am Ausstellfenster, so daß dieses zuverlässig in Schließlage gehalten und darüber hinaus das Übertragungselement bei Längsverlagerungen exakt geführt wird (Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 6).In the closed position of the opening window, the guide tube expediently extends close to the attachment point of the transmission element on the opening window, so that it is reliably held in the closed position and, moreover, the transmission element is guided precisely in the event of longitudinal displacements (features of patent claim 6).

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing and is explained in the following. It shows:

Wie Figur 1 zeigt, befindet sich in der hinteren Seitenwand eines Personenkraftwagens ein Ausstellfenster 1, das durch eine Betätigungsvorrichtung 2 zwischen einer Schließlage a (Figur 2) und einer Offenlage b (Figur 3) verlagerbar ist. Dabei ist die Betätigungsvorrichtung 2 im Bereich der Rückenlehne 3 einer Rücksitzbank an einem fahrzeugaufbaufestem Teil 4 angebracht.As FIG. 1 shows, there is an opening window 1 in the rear side wall of a passenger car, which can be moved by an actuating device 2 between a closed position a (FIG. 2) and an open position b (FIG. 3). The actuating device 2 is attached to a part 4 fixed to the vehicle body in the area of the backrest 3 of a rear seat bench.

Wie in den Figuren 1 bis 4 ersichtlich, weist die Betätigungsvorrichtung 2 ein an einem fahrzeugaufbaufestem Teil 4 befestigtes Führungsrohr 5 auf, das sich etwa lotrecht unter Bildung eines Bogenabschnitts innenseitig zum hinteren Randbereich des Ausstellfensters 1 und in dessen Schließlage a bis nahe zur Befestigungsstelle eines Übertragungselements 6 erstreckt. Dabei ist an dem dem Ausstellfenster 1 zugewandten Endbereich des Führungsrohrs 5 das aus einem biegsamen Kunststoff bestehende sowie einen kreisförmigen Querschnitt aufweisende Übertragungselement 6 längsverschiebbar vorgesehen. Wie die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen, ist das Übertragungselement 6 an seinem fensterseitigen Endabschnitt unmittelbar am Ausstellfenster 1 befestigt. Ferner ist für das Übertragungselement 6 ein schubfester Kunststoff vorgesehen, wobei zur Gewährleistung der Zugfestigkeit des Übertragungselements 6 in den Kunststoff zentrisch ein Stahlseil 7 eingebettet ist. Dieses ragt über die dem Ausstellfenster 1 gegenüberliegende Stirnseite 6' des Übertragungselements 6 zur Verbindung mit einer Gewindestange 10 - wie im folgenden erläutert wird - hinaus.As can be seen in FIGS. 1 to 4, the actuating device 2 has a guide tube 5 which is fastened to a part 4 which is fixed to the vehicle body and which extends approximately perpendicularly, forming an arc section on the inside toward the rear edge region of the opening window 1 and in its closed position a up to close to the attachment point of a transmission element 6 extends. Thereby, at the end area of the guide tube 5 facing the opening window 1 the transmission element 6, which is made of a flexible plastic and has a circular cross section, is provided so as to be longitudinally displaceable. As FIGS. 2 and 3 show, the transmission element 6 is attached directly to the opening window 1 at its window-side end section. Furthermore, a shear-resistant plastic is provided for the transmission element 6, a steel cable 7 being embedded centrally in the plastic to ensure the tensile strength of the transmission element 6. This protrudes beyond the end face 6 'of the transmission element 6 opposite the opening window 1 for connection to a threaded rod 10 - as will be explained in the following.

Im Führungsrohr 5 ist anschließend an das Übertragungselement 6 eine koaxial zu diesem verlaufende Gewindestange 10 längsverschiebbar angeordnet, die den gleichen Außendurchmesser wie das Übertragungselement 6 hat. Zur dreh- und zugfesten Verbindung mit diesem ist in die Gewindestange 10 zentrisch eine axial verlaufende Schraube 11 eingesetzt (Figur 4), die an ihrem dem Übertragungselement 6 zugewandten Endabschnitt eine Sacklochbohrung aufweist. In diese ist der über die Stirnseite 6' des Übertragungselements 6 etwa 10 bis 20 mm hinausragende Endabschnitt des Stahlseils 7 eingesetzt, wobei schließlich die Schraube 11 im Bereich des Endabschnitts des Stahlseils 7 radial zusammengepreßt ist. Schließlich befindet sich zwischen der Gewindestange 10 und dem Übertragungselement 6 eine von der Schraube 11 durchsetzte Scheibe 12, durch die ein Eingraben der Stirnseite der Gewindestange 10 in das Material des Übertragungselements 6 verhindert wird. Durch einen radial von der Gewindestange 10 abstehenden und in eine Führungsnut 13 des Führungsrohrs 5 längsverschiebbar eingreifenden Führungsstift 14 ist gewährleistet, daß sich die Gewindestange 10 bei Längsverschiebungen im Führungsrohr 5 nicht drehen kann.In the guide tube 5, a threaded rod 10 which extends coaxially to the transmission element 6 and which has the same outer diameter as the transmission element 6 is arranged to be longitudinally displaceable. An axially extending screw 11 is inserted centrally into the threaded rod 10 (FIG. 4) for rotationally and tensile connection therewith, which screw has a blind hole at its end section facing the transmission element 6. The end section of the steel cable 7 projecting approximately 10 to 20 mm beyond the end face 6 'of the transmission element 6 is inserted into it, the screw 11 finally being radially compressed in the region of the end section of the steel cable 7. Finally, between the threaded rod 10 and the transmission element 6 there is a washer 12 through which the screw 11 passes, by means of which the end face of the threaded rod 10 is prevented from digging into the material of the transmission element 6. A radially protruding from the threaded rod 10 and longitudinally displaceably engaging in a guide groove 13 of the guide tube 5 ensures that the threaded rod 10th cannot rotate with longitudinal displacements in the guide tube 5.

Mit der Gewindestange 10 steht ein Ritzel eines an einem fahrzeugaufbaufesten Teil 4 befestigten Elektromotors 15 in Eingriff, durch den die Gewindestange 10 und damit das Übertragungselement 6 in den Richtungen des Doppelpfeils c zum Verlagern des Ausstellfensters 1 zwischen der Schließlage a und der Offenlage b längsverlagert wird.The threaded rod 10 engages a pinion of an electric motor 15 fastened to a part 4 fixed to the vehicle body, through which the threaded rod 10 and thus the transmission element 6 are longitudinally displaced in the directions of the double arrow c for moving the opening window 1 between the closed position a and the open position b .
