Definitions
- the invention relates to a pretensioner-fastener for Seat belts, with a load-bearing frame on which a latch is movably mounted, which in its closed position on a Tongue attacks with a release button, by pressing the Bolt can be moved into the open position to release the tongue is, and with a multi-arm locking lever mounted on the frame to prevent the automatic release of the release button, a first arm of the locking lever is articulated on the release button and on the locking lever from the outside acting inertia forces own moment of inertia a total moment of inertia around its swivel axis result in an automatic movement of the release button abrupt change in speed of the fastener during a belt tensioning process prevented.
- a generic closure is known from EP 0 557 983 A1.
- the locking lever provided in this closure is articulated on an arm on the release button and limits the movement of a locking pin with a claw-shaped end of the second arm, which holds the bolt in the closed position.
- the automatic closure of the lock when using a belt tensioner at the beginning or at the end of the backstroke stroke, if the inertia of the parts can lead to the opening of the release button, is to be prevented in the known closure as follows: To open the release button in the event of an abrupt deceleration at the end of the back tensioning stroke To avoid, the center of gravity of the locking lever is arranged to its pivot axis so that the sum of the torques about the pivot axis presses the locking lever into its closed position.
- Opening during abrupt acceleration at the beginning of the backlash stroke should be precluded by the fact that the moment of inertia of the locking lever is so great that a rotary movement is avoided or that it only leads to a small movement which does not open the lock. Theoretically, however, it can never be ruled out that in certain exceptional situations acceleration forces will occur which are large enough to cause the locking lever to move sufficiently large to open the release button. Even small opening movements can therefore be excluded.
- the invention provides a belt-fastener fastener in which the automatic movement of the release button when accelerating strongly as well as in the event of severe deceleration even in exceptional situations is excluded.
- This is the case of a closure of the beginning mentioned type according to the invention by a on a second arm of the Locking lever so movably mounted mass body that the Mass body with an abrupt change in speed in one Movement device transmits an inertial force to the second arm and that in the opposite direction by movement relative to the arm Power transmission from the mass body to the locking lever at least in is essentially interrupted.
- the invention lies in the Based on the knowledge that the moment of inertia of the locking lever to Lock the release button only when changing speed in one Contributes to locking the release button in the opposite direction however, can even help open the release button.
- the mass body is preferably in one direction of movement coupled with the second arm and in the opposite direction through the Relative movement to the second arm decoupled from it, so that it only some or preferably no inertia at all second arm of the locking lever exercises.
- Uncoupling in one direction can, for example, through an elongated hole provided in the mass body into which the second arm extends and the one Allows relative movement in one direction.
- suitable Locking mechanisms e.g. Latches is the mass body in the other Direction coupled with the second arm.
- the interruption of the power transmission from the mass body to the locking lever preferably takes place in that the mass body at a strong speed change in the opposite direction due to its Relative movement to the second arm hits a frame-fixed stop and at least partially, preferably completely supports. Through the support at the stop, the mass body initiates one little or preferably no inertia in the locking lever.
- the mass body can be moved in translation on the second arm be stored. In the preferred embodiment, however, it is rotatable and positioned eccentrically to his center of gravity on the second arm, the frame-fixed stop a first rotary stop for the Mass body forms.
- An opposite to the first rotation stop Direction of rotation of the mass body acting second rotation stop is formed by a section of the second arm itself on which the mass body can strike.
- In the closed position of the locking lever is the mass body at the second rotation stop or has only a short distance from this, so that the inertia of the Mass body with an abrupt change in speed in a corresponding Direction is immediately initiated in the locking lever.
- one or both lie Rotary stops, seen parallel to the actuation direction of the release button, at the center of gravity of the mass body.
- Rotary stop means that the mass body attaches itself completely supports him and the mass body therefore no inertia on the Lock lever exerts. This is the power transmission path to initiate an inertia force in the locking lever completely interrupted.
- the power transmission is preferably interrupted by the Mass body on the locking lever when accelerating the lock.
- the inertial force of the mass body to prevent displacement the release button is therefore only effective when decelerating at the end of the Back tension stroke.
- FIG 1 is a pretensioner fastener 1 for seat belts shown, the on a fitting part, not shown, with a connected to it, also not shown belt tensioners is attached.
- the closure 1 has a housing plate 3 with a attached to it, load-bearing frame 5.
- the frame 5 is made Functionally speaking, from five different parts, namely one Guide block 7, a right and a not shown mirror-image left side member 9 and a left and one Right first rotation stop 11.
- the hollow interior of the guide block 7 serves as a guide for a movable perpendicular to the housing plate 3 Bolt 13, in the closed position shown in Figure 1 down is pressed.
- the release button 15 has two lateral, opposite one another Scenery guides, of which only the right scenery guide 23 is shown is.
- the link guide 23 is closed, wherein in Figure 1 the upper part for better visibility of parts behind has broken away. In the guide 23 this is on the side cranked, free end 25 of a first arm 27 of a two-armed Locking lever 29, which can be seen better in Figures 2 to 6, stored.
- the locking lever 29 is a protruding pin-like Section 31 at its two lateral ends rotatably on the Supported longitudinal beams 9 and extends almost over the entire Width of the closure 1. An opposite to the first arm 27, second arm 33 can be seen more clearly in FIGS. 2 to 6.
- Mass body 37 consists of two opposing partial masses 39 and a connecting web 41.
- Each partial mass 39 has in essentially the shape of a half cylinder, the Axis of curvature of the cylindrical outer surface with the pivot axis 46 of the locking lever 29 coincides.
- the first rotary stops 11 have a concavely curved one adapted to the cylindrical outer surface Surface whose axis of curvature also with the pivot axis 46 of the Locking lever 29 coincides.
- the distance between the concave surface 43 of each first rotary stop 11 to the associated partial mass 39 as can be seen in Figure 2, very small, so that only a narrow Gap is formed between these parts.
- Each partial mass 39 has in a plane perpendicular to the pivot axis 46 of the locking lever 29 a Guide groove 45 into which the corresponding longitudinal member 9 of the frame 5 penetrates so that there is a lateral guide for the partial mass 39th results.
- FIG. 1 The further structure of the closure 1 is described below with reference to Figure 2 explained in more detail, with individual parts compared to the illustration are shown in simplified form in FIG. 1.
- FIG. 1 in particular, the articulation of the locking lever 29 is better detect.
- the free end 25 of the first arm protrudes into the Link guide 23 in the release button 15.
- the link guide 23 has two sections, namely a section 47 that is rectangular extends to the housing plate 3, and a section 49 which is parallel runs to the housing plate 3 and merges into section 47.
- the end 25 is in Section 47 is located and is only a short distance from the Wall.
- the mass body 37 has a receiving opening for its rotary bearing 51, which extends deep inside.
- the deepest The location of the receiving opening 51 is the shape of the end 35 of the second Arms 33 rounded accordingly, so that the end 35 is a pivot bearing for forms the mass body 37.
- the center of gravity 54 of the mass body 37 lies between the pivot axis 46 and the axis of rotation 53 by the End 35 is formed.
- Two opposite sections of the Receiving opening 51 are designed differently.
- One of the first Rotating stop 11 facing section 55 runs obliquely outside that the receiving opening 51 is a rotation of the mass body 37 the axis of rotation 53 allowed in a counterclockwise direction.
- the opposite Section has an inward protrusion that is in the Closed position touches the arm 33 so that the arm 33 in this Area forms a second rotary stop 57 for the mass body 37.
- the second rotary stop 57 acts in comparison to the first Rotation stop 11 in the opposite direction of rotation.
- the Release button 15 are pressed in the direction of the arrow according to FIG. 2. Because of the small lateral distance of the end 25 from the wall in Area of section 47 is already with a slight actuation of the Release button 15 the locking lever 29 pivoted clockwise until it as shown in Figure 3, is relatively oblique and finally, 4, the end 25 at the end of section 49 of Link guide 23 is located. Because of its 53 eccentric center of gravity 54 will be the mass body 37 turn slightly counterclockwise so that it is surface 43 touched, however, the cylindrical outer surface of the mass body 37 slide on the correspondingly shaped surface 43.
- the mass body 37 is eccentric is pivoted, it pivots relative to its axis of rotation 53 counterclockwise and immediately bumps with its outer surface second rotary stop 11. Since the area of the Stop 11 is located approximately at the level of the center of gravity 54, is supported the mass body 37 completely on the second rotary stop 11, so that he does not apply force to the locking lever 29.
- the release button 15 can so that are not set in motion by the locking lever 29.
- On alternatively provided minimum idle stroke between the first arm and the left wall of section 47 can rule out that at Start of the rotation of the mass body 37 a little in the locking lever 39 force introduced to move the release button 15 leads.
- the Mass body 37 is also on its cylindrical outer surface Folded height of the center of gravity.
- Locking edge 59 which is parallel to the pivot axis 46 and the Axis of rotation 53 extends. If this locking edge 59 as relative sharp edge is formed and the mass body 37 at 5 strikes the surface 43, the Locking edge 59 slides off the surface of the mass body 37 on the surface 43 when the surfaces hit prevent.
- Figure 6 shows the balance of forces at the closure 1 at the end of remindstrammhubes when the closure 1 is suddenly braked, so that there is a delay in the direction of the arrow.
- the first Rotary stop 11 does not work with this delay, only the second rotary stop 57. Due to its inertia, the Mass body 37 clockwise and beats if it is not already in the closed position on the second rotary stop 57, after minimal Swivel path on this (see the area marked with Y). Mass body 37 and locking lever 29 are in this direction of movement strength connected. With a lever arm L2 a force F2 is introduced into the locking lever 29.
- the closure shown is due to displacement of the release button 15 abrupt changes in speed when tightening the belt in the secured in opposite directions of movement.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen gurtstrafferfesten Verschluß für Sicherheitsgurte, mit einem lasttragenden Rahmen, an dem ein Riegel beweglich gelagert ist, welcher in seiner Schließstellung an einer Steckzunge angreift, mit einer Lösetaste, durch deren Betätigung der Riegel in die Öffnungsstellung zur Freigabe der Steckzunge verschiebbar ist, und mit einem am Rahmen gelagerten, mehrarmigen Sperrhebel zum Verhindern des selbsttätigen Verschiebens der Lösetaste, wobei ein erster Arm des Sperrhebels an der Lösetaste angelenkt ist und die auf den Sperrhebel von außen einwirkenden Trägheitskräfte sowie sein eigenes Trägheitsmoment ein Gesamtträgheitsmoment um seine Schwenkachse ergeben, das ein selbsttätiges Verschieben der Lösetaste bei abrupter Geschwindigkeitsänderung des Verschlusses bei einem Gurtstraffvorgang verhindert.The invention relates to a pretensioner-fastener for Seat belts, with a load-bearing frame on which a latch is movably mounted, which in its closed position on a Tongue attacks with a release button, by pressing the Bolt can be moved into the open position to release the tongue is, and with a multi-arm locking lever mounted on the frame to prevent the automatic release of the release button, a first arm of the locking lever is articulated on the release button and on the locking lever from the outside acting inertia forces own moment of inertia a total moment of inertia around its swivel axis result in an automatic movement of the release button abrupt change in speed of the fastener during a belt tensioning process prevented.
Ein gattungsgemäßer Verschluß ist aus der EP 0 557 983 A1 bekannt.
Der bei diesem Verschluß vorgesehene Sperrhebel ist an einem Arm an
der Lösetaste angelenkt und beschränkt mit einem klauenförmigen Ende
des zweiten Armes die Bewegung eines Sperrstiftes, der den Riegel in
der Schließstellung hält. Das selbsttätige Öffnen des Schlosses bei
Verwendung eines Gurtstraffers zu Beginn oder am Ende des Rückstrammhubes,
wenn die Massenträgheiten der Teile zum Öffnen der Lösetaste
führen können, soll bei dem bekannten Verschluß folgendermaßen verhindert
werden: Um das Öffnen der Lösetaste beim abrupten Verzögern am
Ende des Rückstrammhubes zu vermeiden, ist der Schwerpunkt des Sperrhebels
so zu seiner Schwenkachse angeordnet, daß die Summe der Drehmomente
um die Schwenkachse den Sperrhebel in seine Schließstellung
drückt. Das Öffnen beim abrupten Beschleunigen zu Beginn des Rückstrammhubes
soll dadurch ausgeschlossen sein, daß das Trägheitsmoment
des Sperrhebels so groß ist, daß eine Drehbewegung vermieden wird oder
daß sie nur zu einer kleinen, das Schloß nicht öffnenden Bewegung
führt. Theoretisch ist jedoch nie auszuschließen, daß in bestimmten
Ausnahmesituationen Beschleunigungkräfte auftreten, die groß genug
sind, um eine zum Öffnen der Lösetaste ausreichend große Bewegung des
Sperrhebels zu bewirken. Schon kleine Öffnungsbewegungen sind deshalb
auszuschließen.A generic closure is known from EP 0 557 983 A1.
The locking lever provided in this closure is articulated on an arm on the release button and limits the movement of a locking pin with a claw-shaped end of the second arm, which holds the bolt in the closed position. The automatic closure of the lock when using a belt tensioner at the beginning or at the end of the backstroke stroke, if the inertia of the parts can lead to the opening of the release button, is to be prevented in the known closure as follows: To open the release button in the event of an abrupt deceleration at the end of the back tensioning stroke To avoid, the center of gravity of the locking lever is arranged to its pivot axis so that the sum of the torques about the pivot axis presses the locking lever into its closed position. Opening during abrupt acceleration at the beginning of the backlash stroke should be precluded by the fact that the moment of inertia of the locking lever is so great that a rotary movement is avoided or that it only leads to a small movement which does not open the lock. Theoretically, however, it can never be ruled out that in certain exceptional situations acceleration forces will occur which are large enough to cause the locking lever to move sufficiently large to open the release button. Even small opening movements can therefore be excluded.
Die Erfindung schafft einen gurtstrafferfesten Verschluß, bei dem das selbsttätige Verschieben der Lösetaste bei starker Beschleunigung ebenso wie bei starker Verzögerung selbst in Ausnahmesituationen ausgeschlossen ist. Dies wird bei einem Verschluß der eingangs genannten Art erfindungsgemäß durch einen an einem zweiten Arm des Sperrhebels derart beweglich gelagerten Massekörper erreicht, daß der Massekörper bei abrupter Geschwindigkeitsänderung in einer Bewegungsvorrichtung eine Trägheitskraft auf den zweiten Arm überträgt und daß in Gegenrichtung durch eine Bewegung relativ zum Arm die Kraftübertragung vom Massekörper auf den Sperrhebel zumindest im wesentlichen unterbrochen ist. Der Erfindung liegt dabei die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß das Massenträgheitsmoment des Sperrhebels zum Verriegeln der Lösetaste nur bei Geschwindigkeitsänderung in einer Richtung zum Sperren der Lösetaste beiträgt, in der Gegenrichtung jedoch sogar zum Öffnen der Lösetaste beitragen kann. Während bei dem bekannten Verschluß der Sperrhebel einen einstückig an ihm angeformten Fortsatz aufweist, der zur Verlagerung des Schwerpunkts dient, ist beim erfindungsgemäßen Verschluß ein Sperrhebel mit einem eigenen Massekörper vorgesehen, der beweglich am Sperrhebel gelagert ist. Damit ist das Gesamtträgheitsmoment um die Schwenkachse des Sperrhebels beim Beschleunigen und Verzögern unterschiedlich groß, wodurch das selbsttätige Verschieben der Lösetaste ausgeschlossen werden kann.The invention provides a belt-fastener fastener in which the automatic movement of the release button when accelerating strongly as well as in the event of severe deceleration even in exceptional situations is excluded. This is the case of a closure of the beginning mentioned type according to the invention by a on a second arm of the Locking lever so movably mounted mass body that the Mass body with an abrupt change in speed in one Movement device transmits an inertial force to the second arm and that in the opposite direction by movement relative to the arm Power transmission from the mass body to the locking lever at least in is essentially interrupted. The invention lies in the Based on the knowledge that the moment of inertia of the locking lever to Lock the release button only when changing speed in one Contributes to locking the release button in the opposite direction however, can even help open the release button. While at that known closure of the locking lever integrally formed on it Has extension that is used to shift the center of gravity in the closure according to the invention a locking lever with its own Mass body provided, which is movably mounted on the locking lever. This is the total moment of inertia around the pivot axis of the locking lever when accelerating and decelerating different sizes, which the automatic movement of the release button can be excluded.
Vorzugsweise ist der Massekörper in der einen Bewegungsrichtung mit dem zweiten Arm gekoppelt und in Gegenrichtung durch die Relativbewegung zum zweiten Arm von diesem entkoppelt, so daß er nur einen Teil oder vorzugsweise überhaupt keine Trägheitskraft auf den zweiten Arm des Sperrhebels ausübt. Das Entkoppeln in einer Richtung kann beispielsweise durch ein im Massekörper vorgesehenes Langloch ermöglicht werden, in das sich der zweite Arm erstreckt und das eine Relativbewegung in einer Richtung zuläßt. Durch geeignete Sperrmechanismen, z.B. Rastklinken, ist der Massekörper in der anderen Richtung mit dem zweiten Arm gekoppelt.The mass body is preferably in one direction of movement coupled with the second arm and in the opposite direction through the Relative movement to the second arm decoupled from it, so that it only some or preferably no inertia at all second arm of the locking lever exercises. Uncoupling in one direction can, for example, through an elongated hole provided in the mass body into which the second arm extends and the one Allows relative movement in one direction. By suitable Locking mechanisms, e.g. Latches is the mass body in the other Direction coupled with the second arm.
Das Unterbrechen der Kraftübertragung vom Massekörper zum Sperrhebel erfolgt vorzugsweise dadurch, daß der Massekörper bei einer starken Geschwindigkeitsänderung in der Gegenrichtung aufgrund seiner Relativbewegung zum zweiten Arm auf einen rahmenfesten Anschlag trifft und sich an diesem zumindest teilweise, vorzugsweise vollständig abstützt. Durch die Abstützung am Anschlag leitet der Massekörper eine geringe oder vorzugsweise keine Trägheitskraft in den Sperrhebel ein.The interruption of the power transmission from the mass body to the locking lever preferably takes place in that the mass body at a strong speed change in the opposite direction due to its Relative movement to the second arm hits a frame-fixed stop and at least partially, preferably completely supports. Through the support at the stop, the mass body initiates one little or preferably no inertia in the locking lever.
Der Massekörper kann translatorisch verschiebbar am zweiten Arm gelagert sein. Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist er jedoch drehbeweglich und exzentrisch zu seinem Schwerpunkt am zweiten Arm gelagert, wobei der rahmenfeste Anschlag einen ersten Drehanschlag für den Massekörper bildet. Ein relativ zum ersten Drehanschlag in entgegengesetzter Drehrichtung des Massekörpers wirkender zweiter Drehanschlag wird durch einen Abschnitt des zweiten Arms selbst gebildet, an dem der Massekörper anschlagen kann. In der Schließstellung des Sperrhebels liegt der Massekörper am zweiten Drehanschlag an oder hat nur einen geringen Abstand von diesem, so daß die Trägheitskraft des Massekörpers bei abrupter Geschwindigkeitsänderung in entsprechender Richtung sofort in den Sperrhebel eingeleitet wird.The mass body can be moved in translation on the second arm be stored. In the preferred embodiment, however, it is rotatable and positioned eccentrically to his center of gravity on the second arm, the frame-fixed stop a first rotary stop for the Mass body forms. An opposite to the first rotation stop Direction of rotation of the mass body acting second rotation stop is formed by a section of the second arm itself on which the mass body can strike. In the closed position of the locking lever is the mass body at the second rotation stop or has only a short distance from this, so that the inertia of the Mass body with an abrupt change in speed in a corresponding Direction is immediately initiated in the locking lever.
Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform liegt eine oder liegen beide Drehanschläge, parallel zur Betätigungsrichtung der Lösetaste gesehen, auf Höhe des Schwerpunkts des Massekörpers. Für den ersten Drehanschlag bedeutet dies, daß sich der Massekörper vollständig an ihm abstützt und der Massekörper deshalb keine Trägheitskraft auf den Sperrhebel ausübt. Damit ist der Kraftübertragungsweg zur Einleitung einer Trägheitskraft in den Sperrhebel vollständig unterbrochen. In the preferred embodiment, one or both lie Rotary stops, seen parallel to the actuation direction of the release button, at the center of gravity of the mass body. For the first one Rotary stop means that the mass body attaches itself completely supports him and the mass body therefore no inertia on the Lock lever exerts. This is the power transmission path to initiate an inertia force in the locking lever completely interrupted.
Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Unterbrechung der Kraftübertragung vom Massekörper auf den Sperrhebel beim Beschleunigen des Verschlusses. Die Trägheitskraft des Massekörpers zum Verhindern des Verschiebens der Lösetaste wirkt deshalb nur beim Verzögern am Ende des Rückstrammhubes.The power transmission is preferably interrupted by the Mass body on the locking lever when accelerating the lock. The inertial force of the mass body to prevent displacement the release button is therefore only effective when decelerating at the end of the Back tension stroke.

wesentlichen die Form eines Halbzylinders auf, wobei die
Krümmungsachse der zylindrischen Außenoberfläche mit der Schwenkachse
46 des Sperrhebels 29 zusammenfällt. Die ersten Drehanschläge 11 haben
eine an die zylindrische Außenoberfläche angepaßte konkav gekrümmte
Fläche, deren Krümmungsachse ebenfalls mit der Schwenkachse 46 des
Sperrhebels 29 zusammenfällt. Der Abstand zwischen der konkaven Fläche
43 jedes ersten Drehanschlags 11 zu der zugehörigen Teilmasse 39 ist,
wie Figur 2 zu entnehmen ist, sehr gering, so daß nur ein schmaler
Spalt zwischen diesen Teilen gebildet wird. Jede Teilmasse 39 weist in
einer Ebene rechtwinklig zur Schwenkachse 46 des Sperrhebels 29 eine
Führungsnut 45 auf, in die der entsprechende Längsträger 9 des Rahmens
5 eindringt, so daß sich eine seitliche Führung für die Teilmasse 39
ergibt.The
Der weitere Aufbau des Verschlusses 1 wird im folgenden anhand von
Figur 2 noch näher erläutert, wobei einzelne Teile gegenüber der Darstellung
in Figur 1 teilweise vereinfacht wiedergegeben sind. In Figur
2 ist insbesondere die Anlenkung des Sperrhebels 29 besser zu
erkennen. Das freie Ende 25 des ersten Arms ragt, wie gesagt, in die
Kulissenführung 23 in der Lösetaste 15. Die Kulissenführung 23 weist
zwei Abschnitte auf, nämlich einen Abschnitt 47, der sich rechtwinklig
zur Gehäuseplatte 3 erstreckt, und einen Abschnitt 49, der parallel
zur Gehäuseplatte 3 verläuft und in den Abschnitt 47 übergeht. In der
in Figur 2 dargestellten Schließstellung, in der der Sperrhebel 29
annähernd rechtwinklig zur Gehäuseplatte 3 steht, ist das Ende 25 im
Abschnitt 47 gelegen und hat nur einen geringen Abstand von der
Wandung.The further structure of the closure 1 is described below with reference to
Figure 2 explained in more detail, with individual parts compared to the illustration
are shown in simplified form in FIG. 1. In figure
2, in particular, the articulation of the
Der Massekörper 37 weist zu seiner Drehlagerung eine Aufnahmeöffnung
51 auf, die sich tief in sein Inneres erstreckt. Die tiefste
Stelle der Aufnahmeöffnung 51 ist der Form des Endes 35 des zweiten
Arms 33 entsprechend gerundet, so daß das Ende 35 ein Drehlager für
den Massekörper 37 bildet. Der Schwerpunkt 54 des Massekörpers 37
liegt zwischen der Schwenkachse 46 und der Drehachse 53, die durch das
Ende 35 gebildet wird. Zwei einander gegenüberliegende Abschnitte der
Aufnahmeöffnung 51 sind unterschiedlich gestaltet. Ein dem ersten
Drehanschlag 11 zugewandter Abschnitt 55 verläuft so schräg nach
außen, daß die Aufnahmeöffnung 51 ein Drehen des Massekörpers 37 um
die Drehachse 53 im Gegenuhrzeigersinn erlaubt. Dergegenüberliegende
Abschnitt hat hingegen einen nach innen ragenden Vorsprung, der in der
Schließstellung den Arm 33 berührt, so daß der Arm 33 in diesem
Bereich einen zweiten Drehanschlag 57 für den Massekörper 37 bildet.
Der zweite Drehanschlag 57 wirkt im Vergleich zu dem ersten
Drehanschlag 11 in der entgegengesetzten Drehrichtung. The
Zum Verschieben des Riegels 13 in seine Öffnungsstellung muß die
Lösetaste 15 in Pfeilrichtung gemäß Figur 2 gedrückt werden. Aufgrund
des geringen seitlichen Abstands des Endes 25 von der Wandung im
Bereich des Abschnitts 47 wird bereits bei geringem Betätigen der
Lösetaste 15 der Sperrhebel 29 im Uhrzeigersinn geschwenkt, bis er,
wie in Figur 3 gezeigt, relativ schräg steht und sich schließlich,
gemäß Figur 4, das Ende 25 am Ende des Abschnitts 49 der
Kulissenführung 23 befindet. Aufgrund seines zur Drehachse 53
exzentrischen Schwerpunkts 54 wird sich der Massekörper 37 zwar
geringfügig so entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn drehen, daß er die Fläche 43
berührt, jedoch wird die zylindrische Außenoberfläche des Massekörpers
37 auf der entsprechend geformten Fläche 43 gleiten.To move the
In Figur 5 sind die Bewegungen der Teile zueinander bei Beschleunigung
in Pfeilrichtung zu Beginn eines Rückstrammhubes gezeigt. Die
Lösetaste 15 drückt dabei aufgrund ihrer trägen Masse mit einem
Hebelarm L1 von der Schwenkachse 46 nach rechts. Der Schwerpunkt des
Sperrhebels 39 liegt in etwa auf Höhe der Schwenkachse 46, so daß er
selbst kein Drehmoment aufgrund seiner eigenen Trägheit erzeugt. Der
relativ schwere Massekörper 37 hingegen hat eine träge Masse, die eine
Kraft F2 erzeugt. Diese Kraft würde ein Drehmoment im Sperrhebel 29
erzeugen, das groß genug wäre, um die Lösetaste 15 nach links in die
Öffnungsstellung zu drücken. Da der Massekörper 37 jedoch exzentrisch
drehgelagert ist, verschwenkt er relativ zu seiner Drehachse 53
entgegen dem Uhrzeigersinn und stößt sofort mit seiner Außenfläche am
zweiten Drehanschlag 11 an. Da der mit X gekennzeichnete Bereich des
Anschlags 11 in etwa auf Höhe des Schwerpunkts 54 liegt, stützt sich
der Massekörper 37 vollständig am zweiten Drehanschlag 11 ab, so daß
er keine Kraft in den Sperrhebel 29 einleitet. Die Lösetaste 15 kann
damit durch den Sperrhebel 29 nicht in Bewegung versetzt werden. Ein
alternativ vorgesehener minimaler Leerhub zwischen dem ersten Arm und
der linken Wandung des Abschnitts 47 kann ausschließen, daß beim
Beginn des Drehens des Massekörpers 37 eine geringe in den Sperrhebel
39 eingeleitete Kraft zum Verschieben der Lösetaste 15 führt. Der
Massekörper 37 ist ferner auf seiner zylindrischen Außenfläche auf
Höhe des Schwerpunkts abgekantet. Damit ergibt sich eine
Verriegelungskante 59, die parallel zu der Schwenkachse 46 und der
Drehachse 53 verläuft. Wenn diese Verriegelungskante 59 als relativ
scharfe Kante ausgebildet ist und der Massekörper 37 bei
Beschleunigung gemäß Figur 5 an die Fläche 43 anschlägt, kann die
Verriegelungskante 59 ein Abgleiten der Oberfläche des Massekörpers 37
an der Fläche 43 beim Auftreffen der Oberflächen zusätzlich
verhindern.In Figure 5, the movements of the parts to each other when accelerating

Figur 6 zeigt die Kräfteverhältnisse am Verschluß 1 am Ende des
Rückstrammhubes, wenn der Verschluß 1 plötzlich abgebremst wird, so
daß sich eine Verzögerung in Pfeilrichtung ergibt. Der erste
Drehanschlag 11 wirkt bei dieser Verzögerung nicht, sondern nur der
zweite Drehanschlag 57. Aufgrund seiner trägen Masse dreht sich der
Massekörper 37 im Uhrzeigersinn und schlägt, wenn er nicht bereits in
der Schließstellung am zweiten Drehanschlag 57 anliegt, nach minimalem
Verschwenkweg an diesem an (vgl. den mit Y gekennzeichneten Bereich).
Massekörper 37 und Sperrhebel 29 sind in dieser Bewegungsrichtung
kräftemäßig miteinander verbunden. Damit wird mit einem Hebelarm L2
eine Kraft F2 in den Sperrhebel 29 eingeleitet. Das entsprechende
Drehmoment aufgrund des schweren Massekörpers 37 um die Schwenkachse
46 ist wesentlich größer als das durch die träge Masse der Lösetaste
15 in den Sperrhebel 29 eingeleitete Drehmoment, das durch den
Massekörper 37 überkompensiert wird. Somit verhindert der Massekörper
37 stets ein selbsttätiges Verschieben der Lösetaste 15.Figure 6 shows the balance of forces at the closure 1 at the end of
Rückstrammhubes when the closure 1 is suddenly braked, so
that there is a delay in the direction of the arrow. The
