Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Türaußengriff eines Kraftfahrzeuges mit einem am Türblech befestigbarem Lagerrahmen (Lagerbügel), an dem der Ziehgriff angelenkt ist, und mit einem im Lagerrahmen angelenkten Schwenkarm (Drehbügel), der durch den Griff betätigbar ist und dem ein Übertragungsteil, insbesondere ein Bowdenzug angekoppelt ist, durch das die Tür über Übertragungsteile zu öffnen ist, wobei eine Massensperre gegen Federdruck verschwenkbar gelagert ist, die bei einem Seitenaufprall auf Grund ihrer Masse in einer sperrenden Stellung sich befindet, in der sie ein Öffnen der Tür verhindert.The invention relates to an outside door handle of a motor vehicle with a bearing frame that can be attached to the door panel (Bracket) to which the pull handle is hinged and with one articulated in the bearing frame Swivel arm (swivel bracket) that goes through the handle can be actuated and a transmission part, in particular a Bowden cable is coupled through which the door over Transmission parts to be opened, one Mass lock is pivotally mounted against spring pressure, which in a side impact due to their mass in is in a locking position in which it is Prevents opening of the door.

Aus der deutschen Offenlegungsschrift 2023859 ist es bekannt, auf der Innenseite einer Türgriffanordnung eine Augleichsmasse zu lagern, die bei einer gegen das Türaußenblech plötzlich drückenden Kraft ein Verschwenken des Griffes in Öffnungsrichtung verhindert.From German published patent application 2023859 it is known, a on the inside of a door handle assembly To store equilibrium, which in one against the Outside door panel suddenly pushing force swiveling of the handle in the opening direction prevented.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, bei einem Türaußengriff der eingangs genannten Art eine Massensperre anzuordnen, die bei einfacher Konstruktion, geringen Abmessungen und geringem Gewicht eine hohe Funktionstüchtigkeit besitzt.The object of the invention is for an outside door handle to order a mass lock of the type mentioned at the beginning, the simple construction, small dimensions and low weight a high functionality has.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Massensperre am Schwenkarm angelenkt ist und in der sperrenden Stellung ein Verschwenken des Schwenkarmes in die Offen-Stellung verhindert.This object is achieved in that the mass lock is articulated on the swivel arm and in the locking position a pivoting of the swivel arm prevented in the open position.

Die am Schwenkarm angelenkte Massensperre benötigt bei geringem Gewicht nur wenig Platz und bietet eine hohe Sicherheit, da sie bei einem Seitenaufprall stets funktioniert.The mass lock articulated on the swivel arm requires at Light weight, little space and high Safety because it is always in the event of a side impact works.

Eine besonders sichere Funktion wird erreicht, wenn die Massensperre in ihrer Normalstellung sperrt und durch Betätigung des Griffs von Hand in die nicht sperrende Stellung bewegbar ist. Alternativ wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Massensperre in ihrer Normalstellung nicht sperrt und durch die Beschleunigung auf Grund des Seitenaufpralls in die sperrende Stellung bewegbar ist.A particularly safe function is achieved if the Mass lock locks in its normal position and through Manually operate the handle in the non-locking Position is movable. Alternatively, it is suggested that the mass lock does not lock in its normal position and by acceleration due to the side impact is movable into the blocking position.

Vorzugsweise wird vorgeschlagen, daß die Massensperre in der Sperrstellung sich an einem vorderen Teil des Lagerrahmens abstützt. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn die Massensperre in ihrer nicht sperrenden Lage an einem Anschlag des Lagerrahmens anliegt und bei jedem vom Griff erzeugten Verschwenken des Schwenkarmes durch ihre Feder in eine Drehstellung verschwenkbar ist, die von der Normalstellung entfernt liegt, da hierdurch die Massensperre bei jeder Betätigung des Türgriffs verschwenkt wird und dadurch sich nicht festsetzen kann. It is preferably proposed that the mass lock in the locked position on a front part of the Bearing frame supports. It is particularly advantageous if the mass lock in its non-locking position on one Stop of the bearing frame is in contact with everyone and from the handle generated pivoting of the swivel arm by its spring is pivotable in a rotational position, which of the Normal position is removed, as this Mass lock each time the door handle is operated is pivoted and can not get stuck.

Von größtem Vorteil ist es, wenn die Massensperre innerhalb einer Aussparung des Schwenkarmes gelagert ist. Auch sollte die Schwenkachse der Massensperre parallel zur Drehachse des Griffes und des Schwenkarmes angeordnet sein.It is of the greatest advantage if the mass lock is stored within a recess of the swivel arm. The pivot axis of the mass lock should also be parallel to the axis of rotation of the handle and the swivel arm be arranged.

a longitudinal section through the outer door handle in a second embodiment.

Der Türaußengriff besitzt als Gesamteinrichtung einen Lagerrahmen 1, der auf der Innenseite des Außenbleches einer Kraftfahrzeugtür befestigt ist. An einem Ende besitzt der Lagerrahmen 1 eine Aussparung 2, mit dem der außen an der Tür angeordnete Ziehgriff 3 mit einem an seinem Ende angeordneten Vorsprung 4 einliegt, so daß Aussparung 2 und Vorsprung 4 ein Gelenk bilden, um das der Griff 3 verschwenkbar ist.The outer door handle has one as a whole Bearing frame 1, which is on the inside of the outer panel a motor vehicle door is attached. At one end the bearing frame 1 has a recess 2 with which the arranged on the outside of the door pull handle 3 with a its end arranged projection 4 lies so that Recess 2 and protrusion 4 form a joint in order to the handle 3 is pivotable.

An dem dem Vorsprung 4 gegenüberliegenden Ende steht am Griff 3 ein nach innen ragender fingerförmiger Schaft 5 vor, dessen Ende am Ende eines Schwenkarmes 6 anliegt, so daß bei einem Ziehen des Griffes 3 nach außen der Schwenkarm 6 nach außen verschwenkbar ist. Hierbei ist der Schwenkarm 6 um eine Achse 7 drehbeweglich, auf der eine Feder 8 angeordnet ist, die den Schwenkarm 6 gegen die Zugkraft des Griffes 3 nach innen belastet. At the opposite end of the projection 4 is on Handle 3 is an inwardly projecting finger-shaped shaft 5 before, the end of which rests against the end of a swivel arm 6, so that when pulling the handle 3 outwards Swivel arm 6 is pivotable outwards. Here is the swivel arm 6 rotatable about an axis 7 on the a spring 8 is arranged, which opposes the swivel arm 6 the tensile force of the handle 3 is loaded inwards.

Am Ende des Schwenkarmes 6 und/oder des Schaftes 5 ist das Ende eines nicht dargestellten Bowdenzuges befestigt, durch den bei Betätigung das Türschloß geöffnet wird.At the end of the swivel arm 6 and / or the shaft 5 is attached the end of a Bowden cable, not shown, by opening the door lock when actuated becomes.

Im Schwenkarm 6 befindet sich eine rechteckförmige Öffnung, in der eine schwingenförmige Massensperre 10 verschwenkbar um eine Achse 9 gelagert ist, die am Schwenkarm 6 befestigt ist. Hierbei liegen die Achsen 7, 9 parallel zueinander und parallel zur Drehachse des Griffes 3.In the swivel arm 6 there is a rectangular one Opening in which a rocker-shaped mass barrier 10 is pivotally mounted about an axis 9, which on Swivel arm 6 is attached. Here are axes 7, 9 parallel to each other and parallel to the axis of rotation of the Handle 3.

Die Masse bzw. das Gewicht der Massensperre 10 ist geringer als die des Griffes 3 und des Schwenkarmes 6, so daß bei einer Beschleunigung des Schloßes quer zur Fahrtrichtung des Kraftfahrzeugs die Massensperre 10 früher nach außen schwingt als der Griff 3 und der Schwenkarm 6. Hierbei gelangt die Massensperre 10 in einen freien Raum 11 zwischen Schwenkarm 6 und einem vorderen plattenförmigen Teil 12 des Lagerrahmens 1. In dieser Sperrstellung der Massensperre 10 verhindert die Massensperre 10, daß der Schwenkarm 6 zusammen mit dem Griff 3 sich nach außen bewegen kann, da die Massensperre 10 den Abstand zwischen der Achse 9 und dem Teil 12 in dieser Sperrstellung überbrückt.The mass or weight of the mass lock 10 is less than that of the handle 3 and the swivel arm 6, so that with an acceleration of the lock across The direction of travel of the motor vehicle, the mass lock 10 swings out earlier than handle 3 and Swivel arm 6. Here, the mass lock 10 comes in a free space 11 between swivel arm 6 and one front plate-shaped part 12 of the storage frame 1. In this locked position, the mass lock 10 prevents the mass lock 10 that the swivel arm 6 can move outwards together with the handle 3 because the mass lock 10 the distance between the axis 9 and bridged the part 12 in this locked position.

In der nicht-sperrenden Stellung liegt die Massensperre 10 an mindestens einem Anschlag 13 an, der als Stift am Lagerrahmen 1 befestigt ist und hierbei den Lagerrahmen in seiner parallelen Lage zu den Achsen 7, 9 überbrückt. Wird bei normaler Betätigung des Griffes 3 dieser nach außen gezogen, so verschwenkt der Schwenkarm 6 auch nach außen, wobei die Achse 9 und die Massensperre 10 mitgenommen werden. Damit entfernt sich die Achse 9 vom Anschlag 13, so daß die Massensperre 10 nach innen verschwenkt wird. Somit wird bei jeder Betätigung des Griffes 3 die Massensperre 10 bewegt und damit ihre Leichtgängigkeit erhalten.The mass lock is in the non-locking position 10 on at least one stop 13, which as a pin on Bearing frame 1 is attached and the bearing frame in its parallel position to axes 7, 9 bridges. If the handle is operated normally 3 this is pulled outwards, so the swivel arm swivels 6 also to the outside, with the axis 9 and the mass lock 10 can be taken. This removes axis 9 from the stop 13 so that the mass lock 10 to the inside is pivoted. Thus, each time the Handle 3 moves the mass lock 10 and thus yours Get ease of movement.

Eine ständige Anlage der Massensperre 10 am Anschlag 13 wird durch eine Drehfeder 14 erzeugt, die um die Achse 9 angeordnet ist. Die Feder 14 kann eine Doppelfeder sein oder aus zwei Federn bestehen, um bei Federbruch immer noch eine Federwirkung zu haben.A permanent system of mass lock 10 at the stop 13 is generated by a torsion spring 14 which is about the axis 9 is arranged. The spring 14 can be a double spring or consist of two springs in order to always break at spring still have a spring effect.

In der in Fig. 3 dargestellten alternativen Ausführung befindet sich die Massensperre 10 in der Normalstellung, d.h. wenn der Türgriff nicht betätigt wird und ein Seitenaufprall nicht erfolgt, in der sperrenden Stellung, die in Fig. 3 gezeigt ist. Wird die Tür von Hand durch Zug am Griff geöffnet, so wird der Schwenkarm 6 verschwenkt und damit die Achse der Massensperre so verschoben, daß die Massensperre aus ihrer sperrenden Stellung, insbesondere durch ihre Feder, in eine nicht sperrende Stellung verschwenkt wird, da die Achse 9 der Massensperre 10 vom Anschlag 13 sich entfernt. Bei einem Seitenaufprall verbleibt die Massen sperre in einer sperrenden Stellung.In the alternative embodiment shown in FIG. 3 the mass lock 10 is in the normal position, i.e. if the door handle is not operated and a Side impact did not occur, in the blocking position, which is shown in Fig. 3. The door is closed by hand Pull on the handle opens the swivel arm 6 pivoted and thus the axis of the mass lock so moved that the mass lock out of its locking Position, especially by their spring, in a not locking position is pivoted because the axis 9 of the Mass lock 10 away from the stop 13. At a Side impact, the mass lock remains in one blocking position.
