Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Einsteckklammer zur Blindbefestigung eines zylinderförmig ausgebildeten Türschloßgehäuses im Loch eines Karosseriebleches eines Kraftfahrzeuges. Das Gehäuse ist hierzu mit einem Auflageflansch an der Einführseite und einer ringförmigen Erweiterung am entgegengesetzten Ende der Außenwand versehen und weist ferner mindestens zwei von der Außenwand radial nach außen abstehende Vorsprünge auf, denen zur verdrehsicheren Aufnahme im Loch entsprechende Aussparungen zugeordnet sind, in welche die Vorsprünge beim Einführen des Türschlosses eintauchen.The invention relates to an insertion clip for blind fastening a Cylinder-shaped door lock housing in the hole in a body panel of a motor vehicle. The housing is for this purpose with a support flange on the Insertion side and an annular extension at the opposite end of the Provided outer wall and also has at least two radially from the outer wall protrusions protruding outwards, which for non-rotatable reception in Corresponding recesses are assigned in which the projections at Immerse the door lock.

Ein derartiges Türschloßgehäuse ist beispielsweise aus DE 89 11 765 U1 bekannt. Das Gehäuse wird hierbei von außen in das Aufnahmeloch bis zur Auflage des Flansches eingeführt. Sodann wird von der Innenseite der Türe eine gabelförmige Befestigungsklammer aus Federstahl quer zur Gehäusewand auf den mit einer Rille versehenen Schloßkörper aufgeschoben, womit das Schloß fest eingeklemmt ist. Diese Art des Schloßeinbaues ist sehr arbeitsintensiv und läßt sich nur von Hand durchführen, solange die Türinnenseite noch frei liegt.Such a door lock housing is known for example from DE 89 11 765 U1 . The housing is inserted from the outside into the receiving hole until the flange rests. Then, from the inside of the door, a fork-shaped fastening clip made of spring steel is pushed transversely to the housing wall onto the lock body provided with a groove, whereby the lock is firmly clamped. This type of lock installation is very labor intensive and can only be carried out by hand as long as the inside of the door is still exposed.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, von dieser umständlichen Arbeitsweise freizukommen und die Befestigungsklammer unter Berücksichtigung der Form des Schloßkörpers und des Aufnahmeloches so zu gestalten, daß der Schloßkörper zusammen mit der vormontierten Befestigungsklammer von außen in das Aufnahmeloch einsteckbar und "blind" verrastbar ist.The object of the invention is to get rid of this cumbersome way of working and the mounting bracket taking into account the shape of the lock body and to design the receiving hole so that the lock body together with the preassembled mounting bracket can be inserted into the mounting hole from the outside and "blind" can be locked.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird eine sogenannte Einsteckklammer vorgeschlagen, welche einen durch einen Querspalt unterbrochenen Stützring besitzt, an dessen zum Flansch des Gehäuses weisender Kante vier Stützarme entlang der Außenwand des Gehäuses entlangstrebend angeformt sind. Die Stützarme weisen hierbei an ihren freien Enden schräg nach außen gerichtete Stützfinger sowie zwischen diesen etwa achsparallel verlaufende Zentrierlappen auf, welche im eingebauten Zustand am Rand des Aufnahmeloches anliegen. Hierbei kommt es für eine sichere Verrastung auf der Rückseite des Karosseriebleches darauf an, daß die Stützfinger nach dem Einrasten des Stützringes hinter der ringförmigen Erweiterung von der als Auflage dienenden Ringfläche des Flansches einen Abstand haben, welcher gleich der Dicke des Karosseriebleches ist. To solve this problem, a so-called insertion clip is proposed, which has a support ring interrupted by a transverse gap, at the four support arms along the outer wall to the edge of the housing are formed integrally with the housing. The support arms have here at their free ends obliquely outward support fingers and between these approximately axially parallel centering lobes, which in the built Condition at the edge of the receiving hole. This happens for a safe Lock on the back of the body panel on the support fingers after snapping the support ring behind the annular extension of the as Supporting annular surface of the flange have a distance which is the same the thickness of the body panel.

Der durch einen Querspalt unterbrochene Stützring ist hierbei so geformt, daß er sich beim Aufschieben auf das Schloßgehäuse zur Überwindung der ringförmigen Erweiterung leicht auseinanderfedert und dann beim Hintergreifen der Erweiterung an der Außenwand federnd anliegt. Beim anschließenden Einführen des Türschlosses in das Aufnahmeloch rasten die Stützfinger automatisch hinter dem Rand des Aufnahmeloches ein, wenn der Flansch auf dem Karosserieblech aufliegt.The support ring interrupted by a transverse gap is shaped so that it itself when sliding onto the lock housing to overcome the ring-shaped Extension slightly expanded and then when reaching behind the extension resiliently against the outer wall. When the door lock is subsequently inserted the support fingers automatically snap into the receiving hole behind the edge of the Hole when the flange rests on the body panel.

Um die nach außen wirkende Federkraft der Stützfinger zu erhöhen, sind die Stützarme in weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung dicht oberhalb der Zentrierlappen nach innen abgeknickt und liegen mit den Knickkanten im eingebauten Zustand federnd an der Außenwand des Gehäuses an.To increase the outward spring force of the support fingers, the support arms are in a further embodiment of the invention just above the centering lobe kinked on the inside and resilient with the folded edges when installed on the outer wall of the housing.

Die in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellte Einsteckklammer 1 dient beispielsweise bei Türen von Kraftfahrzeugen zur Blindbefestigung des in Figur 4 gezeigten Türschloßgehäuses 2 im Loch 3 des Türbleches 4 ( Figur 6 ). The insertion clip 1 shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 is used, for example in the case of doors of motor vehicles, for blind fastening of the door lock housing 2 shown in FIG. 4 in hole 3 of the door panel 4 ( FIG. 6 ).

Das Türschloßgehäuse 2 ist zur Aufnahme eines nicht dargestellten Türschlosses üblicherweise zylinderförmig ausgebildet und mit einem Auflageflansch 5 an der Einführseite versehen. Am entgegengesetzten Ende befindet sich eine ringförmige Erweiterung 7 auf der Außenwand 6 des Gehäuses 2. Außerdem sind auf dieser Außenwand 6 radial nach außen abstehende, einander gegenüberliegende Vorsprünge 8 und 9 vorgesehen, die im Abstand oberhalb der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7 beginnen, von dort zunächst konisch auseinanderlaufen und dann mit konzentrischen Wänden 10 bis auf einen kurzen Abstand an den Flansch 5 herangeführt sind.The door lock housing 2 is usually cylindrical to accommodate a door lock, not shown, and is provided with a support flange 5 on the insertion side. At the opposite end there is an annular extension 7 on the outer wall 6 of the housing 2 . In addition, radially outwardly projecting, opposing projections 8 and 9 are provided on this outer wall 6 , which begin at a distance above the annular extension 7 , from there initially diverge conically and then are brought up to the flange 5 with a short distance apart using concentric walls 10 are.

Zwischen den Vorsprüngen 8 und 9 sind, um 90° gedreht, zwei weitere Vorsprünge 11 an der Außenwand 6 direkt am Flansch 5 angeformt, wobei diese Vorsprünge 11 in Flanschnähe einen rechteckigen Querschnitt besitzen und die Seitenwände der Vorsprünge pyramidenförmig zusammenlaufen. In Verlängerung dieser Vorsprünge 11 sind kurz vor der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7 noch zwei Rastnasen 12 an der Außenwand 6 angeformt, deren Rastflächen 13 zum Flansch 5 weisen und deren Außendurchmesser geringfügig größer ist als der der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7.Between the projections 8 and 9 , rotated by 90 °, two further projections 11 are formed on the outer wall 6 directly on the flange 5 , these projections 11 having a rectangular cross section near the flange and the side walls of the projections converging pyramid-shaped. In extension of these projections 11 , two locking lugs 12 are formed on the outer wall 6 shortly before the annular extension 7 , the locking surfaces 13 of which face the flange 5 and the outer diameter of which is slightly larger than that of the annular extension 7 .

Die vorgenannten Vorsprünge 8 und 9 ergeben sich aus dem Platzbedarf des in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellten Türschlosses und sind im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel unterschiedlich breit ausgeführt. Dementsprechend sind im Loch 3 des Türbleches 4 zwei unterschiedlich breite Aussparungen 14 und 15 vorgesehen.The aforementioned projections 8 and 9 result from the space requirement of the door lock, not shown in the drawing, and are of different widths in the present exemplary embodiment. Accordingly, two differently wide cutouts 14 and 15 are provided in hole 3 of the door panel 4 .

Durch das Zusammenwirken der unterschiedlich breiten Aussparungen 14 und 15 mit den Vorsprüngen 8 und 9 wird sichergestellt, daß das Türschloßgehäuse 2 beim Einführen stets die richtige Position erhält. Für die weiteren Vorsprünge 11 sind im Aufnahmeloch 3 entsprechende Aussparungen 16 vorgesehen, welche zur verdrehsicheren Aufnahme des Türschloßgehäuses 2 im Loch 3 dienen.The interaction of the differently wide recesses 14 and 15 with the projections 8 and 9 ensures that the door lock housing 2 is always in the correct position during insertion. For the further projections 11 corresponding recesses 16 are provided in the receiving hole 3, which serve for the twist-proof recording of the door lock housing in the hole 2. 3

Die Einsteckklammer 1 besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Stützring 17, welcher durch einen Querspalt 18 unterbrochen und mit einem von der Gehäuseform bestimmten Umgehungsbügel 19 auffederbar zusammengehalten wird. An der zum Anlageflansch 5 weisenden Kante 20 des Stützringes 17 sind vier Stützarme 21 so angeformt, daß diese im Einbauzustand an der Außenwand 6 des Türschloßgehäuses 2 anliegen.The insertion clip 1 consists essentially of a support ring 17, which is interrupted by a transverse gap 18 and is held together by a bypass bracket 19 determined by the shape of the housing. On the edge 20 of the support ring 17 facing the contact flange 5 , four support arms 21 are formed in such a way that they bear against the outer wall 6 of the door lock housing 2 in the installed state .

Die Stützarme 21 weisen an ihren freien Enden schräg nach außen abstehende Stützfinger 22 sowie zwischen diesen etwa achsparallel verlaufende Zentrierlappen 23 auf, welche zur Anlage an den zwischen den Aussparungen 14, 15 und 16 verbleibenden Rändern 24 des Aufnahmeloches 3 dienen. Zum sicheren Einrasten der Stützfinger 22 auf den Rändern 24 des Aufnahmeloches 3 ist es wichtig, daß diese Stützfinger 22 nach dem Aufdrücken der Einsteckklammer 1 auf das Türschloßgehäuse 2 und Einrasten des Stützringes 17 hinter der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7 von der zur Auflage dienenden Anlagefläche 25 des Flansches 5 einen Abstand a haben, der mindestens gleich der Dicke d des Türbleches 4 ist.The support arms 21 have at their free ends obliquely outwardly projecting support fingers 22 and between them approximately axially parallel centering tabs 23 , which are used to rest against the edges 24 of the receiving hole 3 remaining between the cutouts 14, 15 and 16 . To securely snap the support fingers 22 onto the edges 24 of the receiving hole 3 , it is important that these support fingers 22 after pressing the insertion clip 1 onto the door lock housing 2 and snapping the support ring 17 behind the annular extension 7 from the support surface 25 of the flange serving as a support 5 have a distance a which is at least equal to the thickness d of the door panel 4 .

Da die ringförmige Erweiterung 7 sich nur relativ wenig über die Außenwand 6 erhebt, sind zur Sicherheit die beiden gegenüberliegenden Rastnasen 12 vorgesehen, die mit entsprechenden rechteckigen Aussparungen 27 im Stützring 17 derart zusammenwirken, daß diese beim Aufdrücken der Einsteckklammer 1 gleichzeitig einrasten, wenn der Stützring 17 hinter der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7 einrastet.Since the annular extension 7 rises only relatively little above the outer wall 6 , the two opposite latching noses 12 are provided for safety, which cooperate with corresponding rectangular recesses 27 in the support ring 17 such that they snap into place when the insertion clip 1 is pressed on when the support ring 17 engages behind the annular extension 7 .

Die Stützarme 21 sind im Abstand A vom Ende der Zentrierlappen 23 leicht nach innen abgeknickt, und zwar derart, daß diese Knickkanten 26 im eingebauten Zustand der Einsteckklammer 1 an der Außenwand 6 des Türschloßgehäuses 2 federnd anliegen. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, daß die Zentrierlappen 23 stark nach außen gedrückt und die Stützfinger 22 sicher über den Rand 24 des Aufnahmeloches 3 geschoben werden, was zum blinden Einrasten der Stützfinger 22 wichtig ist.The support arms 21 are bent at a distance A from the end of the centering tabs 23 slightly inwards in such a manner that these folding edges 26 abut resiliently in the installed state of the Einsteckklammer 1 on the outer wall 6 of the door lock housing. 2 This ensures that the centering tab 23 is strongly pressed outwards and the support fingers 22 are pushed securely over the edge 24 of the receiving hole 3 , which is important for blind engagement of the support fingers 22 .

Die Einsteckklammer 1 läßt sich, wie aus den Figuren 4 und 5 ersichtlich, mit den Stützarmen 22 vorweg in Richtung der Pfeile M1 auf das Türschloßgehäuse 2 so aufdrücken, daß die Stützarme 22 jeweils an den Vorsprüngen 8 und 9 vorbei an den Flansch 5 herangeführt werden, bis die Vorderkanten der Zentrierlappen 23 die Anlagefläche 25 des Flansches 5 berühren. Der Stützring 17 federt hierbei etwas auseinander, bis er die ringförmige Erweiterung 7 überwunden hat und die Rastnasen 12 mit ihren Rastflächen 13 in die rechteckige Aussparung 27 eingerastet sind.The insertion clip 1 can, as can be seen from FIGS. 4 and 5, be pressed with the support arms 22 in advance in the direction of the arrows M1 onto the door lock housing 2 in such a way that the support arms 22 are each guided past the projections 8 and 9 past the flange 5 until the front edges of the centering tabs 23 touch the contact surface 25 of the flange 5 . The support ring 17 springs slightly apart until it has overcome the annular extension 7 and the locking lugs 12 are engaged with their locking surfaces 13 in the rectangular recess 27 .

Der Einbau des Türschlosses in das Türblech 2 erfolgt, wie aus Figur 5 erkennbar, in Richtung des Pfeiles M2 mit dem Stützring 22 vorweg durch das Loch 3 und ist beendet, wenn der Flansch 5 auf dem Türblech 4 aufliegt und die Stützfinger 22 gleichzeitig auf der Rückseite des Lochrandes 24 eingerastet sind. The installation of the door lock in the door panel 2 takes place, as can be seen from Figure 5 , in the direction of arrow M2 with the support ring 22 in advance through the hole 3 and is finished when the flange 5 rests on the door panel 4 and the support fingers 22 simultaneously on the Back of the hole edge 24 are engaged.

Um das Türschloß im Bedarfsfalle ausbauen zu können, sind am Stützring 17 beiderseits des Querspaltes 18 nach außen abgewinkelte Demontagelappen 28 angeformt. Zum Ausbau muß zunächst die Innenverkleidung der Türe entfernt werden. Sodann können die beiden Lappen 28 mit einem geeigneten Werkzeug auseinandergedrückt werden, wodurch der Stützring 17 sich von der Rastnase 12 abhebt und das Türschloßgehäuse 2 mit der ringförmigen Erweiterung 7 durch die Einsteckklammer 1 herausgezogen werden kann, während letztere zunächst im Aufnahmeloch 3 verbleibt. Nach dem Entfernen des Gehäuses 2 kann die Einsteckklammer 1 nach innen herausgezogen und neu verwendet werden.In order to be able to remove the door lock if necessary, outwardly angled removal tabs 28 are formed on the support ring 17 on both sides of the transverse gap 18 . To remove the door, the interior trim must first be removed. Then the two tabs 28 can be pressed apart with a suitable tool, whereby the support ring 17 stands out from the locking lug 12 and the door lock housing 2 with the annular extension 7 can be pulled out by the insertion clip 1 , while the latter initially remains in the receiving hole 3 . After removing the housing 2 , the insertion clip 1 can be pulled out inwards and used again.
