Derartige Schließhilfen sind grundsätzlich bekannt und dienen dazu, die sich in einer Vorschließstellung befindende Tür oder Klappe eines Kraftfahrzeuges automatisch in eine Endschließstellung zu bewegen. Beispielsweise müssen Fahrzeugtüren oder Kofferraumdeckel nur mit geringer Kraft geschlossen werden, bis eine Vorschließstellung erreicht ist. Nach dem Einrasten des zugeordneten Schlosses wird über einen Signalgeber ein Signal an eine Steuerung gegeben, welche die Schließhilfe aktiviert, so daß die jeweilige Tür oder Klappe automatisch und mit Fremdkraft geschlossen wird.Such locking aids are generally known and are used to Door or flap of a motor vehicle that is in a locking position to move automatically into a final closing position. For example vehicle doors or trunk lids only need to be low Force closed until a pre-closing position is reached. After the associated lock has snapped in, a signal generator is used a signal is sent to a control system which activates the locking aid, so that the respective door or flap automatically and with external power is closed.

Um derartige Schließhilfen zu realisieren, sind verschiedenste Ausführungsformen bekannt geworden. Beispielsweise wurde versucht, eine Schließhilfe durch Zahnstangen, Schraubengetriebe, Linearmotoren oder durch hydraulische Hubkolben zu realisieren. Auch wurde vorgeschlagen, einen Schließbolzen direkt auf einer Exzenterwelle anzuordnen.A wide variety of embodiments are available for realizing such locking aids known. For example, an attempt was made to Locking aid with racks, screw gears, linear motors or realized by hydraulic reciprocating pistons. It has also been suggested to arrange a locking bolt directly on an eccentric shaft.

Es ist das der vorliegenden Erfindung zugrundeliegende Problem (Aufgabe), eine Schließhilfe für Türen oder Klappen eines Kraftfahrzeuges zu schaffen, die insbesondere für unterschiedliche Kraftfahrzeugtypen universell einsetzbar ist. It is the problem underlying the present invention (Task), a locking aid for doors or flaps of a motor vehicle to create, especially for different types of motor vehicles is universally applicable.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 und insbesondere dadurch, daß die Schließhilfe einen Antriebsmotor aufweist, der einen Exzenter antreibt. Zur Befestigung eines Verriegelungselementes eines Schlosses ist eine Trägerplatte mit einer Befestigungsfläche vorgesehen, die von dem Exzenter linear verschiebbar ist.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1 and in particular in that the locking aid has a drive motor, that drives an eccentric.

Der Trägerplatte kann eine Führung, vorzugsweise eine Linearführung zugeordnet sein, um eine lineare Hin- und Herbewegung zu gewährleisten, um die Tür oder Klappe des Kraftfahrzeuges zu schließen. Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Führung an einer Grundplatte ausgebildet ist, die vorzugsweise als Antriebsträger dient. Eine derartige Grundplatte ermöglicht auf einfache Weise die Montage des Antriebsmotors und trägt somit zu einem kompakten Aufbau bei.A guide, preferably a linear guide, can be assigned to the carrier plate to ensure a linear reciprocation to close the door or hatch of the motor vehicle. Here it is advantageous if the guide is formed on a base plate, the preferably serves as a drive carrier. Such a base plate enables in a simple way the assembly of the drive motor and thus carries to a compact structure.

Der Exzenter kann in einem Langloch der Trägerplatte geführt sein, um die Rotationsbewegung des Antriebsmotors in eine Linearbewegung der Trägerplatte umzuwandeln. Hierbei ist es vorteilhaft, wenn eine 180°-Drehung des Exzenters eine Verschiebung der Trägerplatte von einer Schließstellung in eine Offenstellung und umgekehrt bewirkt, da in diesem Fall eine sichere Verriegelung gewährleistet ist.The eccentric can be guided in an elongated hole in the support plate the rotational movement of the drive motor in a linear movement of the To convert carrier plate. Here it is advantageous if a 180 ° rotation of the eccentric a displacement of the carrier plate by one Closed position in an open position and vice versa, because in this If a secure locking is guaranteed.

Die Befestigungsfläche der Trägerplatte ist bevorzugt eben ausgebildet, um eine Montage unterschiedlicher Verriegelungselemente zu ermöglichen. Hierbei kann das Verriegelungselement mit einem Halteblock auf der Trägerplatte befestigt sein.The mounting surface of the carrier plate is preferably designed to be flat to allow assembly of different locking elements. Here, the locking element with a holding block on the carrier plate be attached.

Nachfolgend wird die folgende Erfindung rein beispielhaft anhand einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform und unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen beschrieben. Es zeigen:

eine Draufsicht auf die Schließhilfe von Fig. 1.
The following invention is described purely by way of example using an advantageous embodiment and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Show it:
Fig. 1
a cross-sectional view of a locking aid; and
Fig. 2
a plan view of the locking aid of Fig. 1st

Die in Fig. 1 dargestellte Schließhilfe weist eine Grundplatte 10 auf, die im wesentlichen flächig und eben ausgebildet ist und an ihrer Oberseite eine Trägerplatte 12 lagert, die über nicht dargestellte Linearführungen (in Fig. 1) nach rechts und links verschiebbar ist. Die Grundplatte 10 dient gleichzeitig als Träger für einen Antriebsmotor 14, an dessen Abtriebswelle 16 exzentrisch ein Bolzen 18 mit kreisförmigem Querschnitt angebracht ist.The locking aid shown in Fig. 1 has a base plate 10 which in is essentially flat and flat and has a top Carrier plate 12 supports the linear guides, not shown (in Fig. 1) can be moved to the right and left. The base plate 10 serves at the same time as a carrier for a drive motor 14, on its output shaft 16 eccentrically attached a bolt 18 with a circular cross section is.

Die Oberseite der Trägerplatte 12 ist im wesentlichen eben ausgebildet und bildet eine Befestigungsfläche 20 zur Montage eines Verriegelungselementes, in das ein Schloß der Tür oder Klappe eingreifen kann. Bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist das Verriegelungselement durch einen Schließbügel 22 gebildet, der über einen Halteblock 24 auf der Befestigungsfläche 20 der Trägerplatte 12 befestigt ist.The upper side of the carrier plate 12 is essentially flat and forms a fastening surface 20 for mounting a locking element, in which a lock of the door or flap can engage. In which illustrated embodiment is the locking element by a Striker 22 formed, which is held on the mounting surface via a holding block 24 20 of the support plate 12 is attached.

Wie Fig. 2 zeigt, ist der auf der Abtriebswelle 16 exzentrisch angeordnete Bolzen 18 in einem Langloch 26 der Trägerplatte 12 geführt, so daß bei einer Drehung des Antriebsmotors 14 diese Drehbewegung über den als Exzenter wirkenden Bolzen 18 in eine Linearbewegung der Trägerplatte 12 in Pfeilrichtung umgewandelt wird. Bewegt sich somit der Bolzen 18 von der in Fig. 2 dargestellten Lage durch Drehung des Antriebsmotors 14 im Uhrzeigersinn, so wird die Trägerplatte 12 in Figur 2 in Pfeilrichtung verschoben, bis sich der Bolzen 18 in der gestrichelt dargestellten Lage befindet. Hierbei hat sich zusammen mit der Trägerplatte 12 auch der darauf montierte Schließbügel 22 verschoben.As shown in FIG. 2, the one on the output shaft 16 is arranged eccentrically Bolt 18 guided in an elongated hole 26 of the support plate 12, so that at a rotation of the drive motor 14 this rotary movement over the as Eccentric bolts 18 in a linear movement of the carrier plate 12 is converted in the direction of the arrow. The bolt 18 thus moves from the position shown in Fig. 2 by rotation of the drive motor 14 in Clockwise, the carrier plate 12 is displaced in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 2, until the bolt 18 is in the position shown in dashed lines. Here, together with the carrier plate 12, there is also the one on it assembled striker 22 moved.

Wie in den Fig. 1 und 2 angedeutet ist, kann durch Drehen des Antriebsmotors 14 bzw. des Bolzens 18 um 180° der Schließbügel 22 von einer geschlossenen Position in eine offene Position bewegt werden. Hierbei kann das Schloß einer zugeordneten Tür oder Klappe in der offenen Position leicht in den Schließbügel einrasten, da die Türdichtung beim Schließen der Türe noch keinen großen Widerstand entgegensetzt. Durch Aktivieren der Schließhilfe wird anschließend der Schließbügel 22 in die geschlossene Position bewegt, in der die Türe oder die Klappe des Kraftfahrzeuges ordnungsgemäß verschlossen ist. Die Aktivierung der Schließhilfe wird dabei über einen Schalter oder einen Signalgeber eingeleitet, der ein Signal an eine zugeordnete Steuerung für den Schließvorgang freigibt. Nach dem Aktivieren der Schließhilfe treibt der Antriebsmotor 16, der vorzugsweise als Getriebemotor ausgebildet ist, über die Abtriebswelle 16 den als Exzenter wirkenden Bolzen 18 an, der wiederum durch die vorgesehene Linearführung die Trägerplatte 12 linear und relativ zu der Grundplatte 10 bewegt. Da der Schließbügel nach Einrasten des Schlosses mit der Tür bzw. der Klappe verbunden ist, wird diese durch die Linearbewegung der Trägerplatte an die Tür- bzw. Klappendichtung angepreßt. Für einen nachfolgenden "Öffnungsvorgang" treibt der Antriebsmotor 14 die Abtriebswelle 16 um weitere 180°, so daß die Trägerplatte 12 zusammen mit dem Schließbügel 22 entsprechend "nach außen" bewegt wird. Da sich der Exzenter 18 sowohl in der Offenstellung wie auch in der Schließstellung in seinem Totpunkt befindet, ist die Trägerplatte 12 in diesen beiden Stellungen blockiert und kann nicht bewegt werden. As indicated in FIGS. 1 and 2, can by rotating the drive motor 14 or the bolt 18 by 180 ° of the striker 22 from a closed Position can be moved to an open position. This can the lock of an associated door or hatch in the open position Slightly snap into the striker as the door seal closes no great resistance to the door yet. By activating the closing aid is then the striker 22 in the closed Moved position in the door or flap of the motor vehicle is properly closed. The activation of the locking aid will initiated by a switch or a signal generator, the a signal released to an assigned control for the closing process. After the activation of the locking aid drives the drive motor 16, which is preferably is designed as a geared motor, via the output shaft 16 as Eccentric acting bolt 18, which in turn by the intended Linear guide the carrier plate 12 linearly and relative to the base plate 10 moves. As the striker after locking the lock with the door or the flap is connected, this is due to the linear movement of the Carrier plate pressed against the door or flap seal. For one In the subsequent "opening process", the drive motor 14 drives the output shaft 16 by a further 180 °, so that the carrier plate 12 together with the striker 22 is moved "outwards" accordingly. Since the Eccentric 18 both in the open position and in the closed position in is at its dead center, the carrier plate 12 is in these two positions blocked and cannot be moved.

Durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Trägerplatte 12, die eine große Befestigungsfläche für unterschiedlichste Verriegelungselemente 22 bietet, läßt sich die erfindungsgemäße Schließhilfe universell und für unterschiedliche Fahrzeugtypen einsetzen. By the support plate 12 provided according to the invention, which is a large Provides mounting surface for a wide variety of locking elements 22, the locking aid according to the invention can be used universally and for different purposes Use vehicle types.
