At the other end the pulley is connected to a release lever (7) by means of a carrier connection (20,25) containing a sleeve or elongated and guide (24) . The other end of the swivel lever is forked.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verschlußanordnung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1. Verschlußanordnungen dieser Art sind in großer Anzahl und in unterschiedlicher Ausbildung bei modernen Kraftfahrzeugen im Einsatz. Als Zugorgan wird üblicherweise ein Seilzug oder ein Bowdenzug verwendet.The invention relates to a closure arrangement according to the preamble of 1. Closure arrangements of this type are in large numbers and in different training in modern motor vehicles in use. As a train organ a cable or Bowden cable is usually used.

Moderne Sicherheitsanforderungen an Kraftfahrzeugaufbauten sehen vor, daß bei einem Crash, insbesondere auch einem Frontalcrash, die Tür nicht unbeabsichtigt aufspringen darf, also der Auslösehebel nicht im Sinne des Auslösens mit einer Kraft beaufschlagt werden darf, andererseits aber auch bei Verformung des Fahrzeugaufbaus zum Zwecke der schnellen Rettung der Fahrzeuginsassen die Tür sich über den Außengriff relativ leicht öffnen lassen muß.Modern safety requirements for motor vehicle bodies provide that one Crash, especially a frontal crash, do not accidentally open the door must not be applied to the trigger lever in the sense of triggering may be used, but also if the vehicle body is deformed for the purpose the quick rescue of the vehicle occupants the door relative to the outside handle must open easily.

Bei dem gattungsgemäßen Aufbau der Verschlußanordnung können hier insofern Schwierigkeiten auftreten, als die Tür im Crashfall einen kraftübertragenden Bestandteil der Fahrgastzelle bildet, die sich bekanntlich möglichst wenig verformen soll, damit die Fahrzeuginsassen, die ohnehin starken Verzögerungskräften unterliegen, nicht durch Veränderungen der Größe und der Geometrie des Fahrgastraums zusätzlich gefährdet werden. Dies wiederum bedeutet, daß insbesondere bei einem Frontalcrash die den Türstirnseiten gegenüberstehenden Säulen des Fahrzeugaufbaus Druckkräfte im Sinne einer Verkürzung der jeweiligen Seitentür auf diese übertragen. Besonders deformationsgefährdet sind dadurch die Türstirnseiten oder Türstirnbleche, die im Sinne einer Verkürzung der Tür deformiert werden können. Betrachtet man dasjenige Türstirnblech, das das Schloß mit dem Auslösehebel trägt, so wird das Türstirnblech dann relativ zum Türaußenblech mit dem Türaußengriff verlagert, wodurch auch eine Verlagerung des Auslösehebels relativ zu dem Außengriff auftritt. Der Anlenkungspunkt des Auslösehebels an dem Zugorgan wandert dabei auf einem Kreisbogen um die Anlenkung des Zugorgans am Türaußengriff, wodurch auf den Auslösehebel eine Kraft übertragen werden kann, die ihn - wie bei Betätigung des Türaußengriffs zum Zwecke des gewollten Türöffnens - verschwenken kann: Der Auslösehebel bewirkt eine Auslösung des Schlosses und damit eine Freigabe der Tür zum Öffnen, so daß bei einem Crash unvermeidliche Beschleunigungskräfte die Tür öffnen können.In this regard, the generic construction of the closure arrangement can Difficulties arise when the door is a force-transmitting component in the event of a crash the passenger compartment forms, which is known to deform as little as possible, so that Vehicle occupants, who are subject to strong deceleration forces anyway, not through Changes in the size and geometry of the passenger compartment are also at risk become. This in turn means that in particular in the event of a frontal crash Columns opposite the door front of the vehicle body pressure forces in the sense a shortening of the respective side door transferred to this. Especially The end faces of the door or door end plates are therefore at risk of deformation shortening the door can be deformed. If you look at that Door face plate, which carries the lock with the release lever, becomes the door face plate then relocated relative to the outer door panel with the outer door handle, which also creates a Relocation of the trigger lever occurs relative to the outer handle. The link point the release lever on the traction element moves on an arc around the Articulation of the pulling element on the outside door handle, which creates a force on the release lever can be transferred to him - as when operating the outside door handle for the purpose of the desired door opening - can pivot: The release lever causes one Triggering the lock and thus releasing the door to open, so that at accelerating forces that are inevitable in a crash can open the door.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine gattungsgemäße Verschlußanordnung mit minimalem Aufwand so auszubilden, daß bei einem Frontalcrash auftretende Deformationen des das Schloß tragenden Türstirnblechs nicht zu einem Auslösen des Schlosses führen.The invention has for its object a generic closure arrangement to be trained with minimal effort in such a way that a frontal crash occurs Deformations of the door face plate carrying the lock do not trigger the Lead castle.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung dieser Aufgabe besteht in den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs, vorteilhafte Ausbildungen der Erfindung beschreiben die Unteransprüche.The inventive solution to this problem consists in the characterizing Features of the main claim describe advantageous embodiments of the invention the subclaims.

Die Erfindung macht also die beim Stand der Technik für das ungewollte Verschwenken des Auslösehebels des Schlosses in seine Auslösestellung verantwortlichen Relativbewegungen zwischen Auslösehebel und Türaußengriff dadurch unwirksam, daß das Zugorgan nicht mit dem Auslösehebel, sondern einem Schwenkhebel verbunden ist, der an einem Bereich der Tür gelagert ist, der an den stirnblechseitigen Deformationen nicht oder kaum teilnimmt, also seine Lage relativ zum Türaußengriff beibehält. Zwischen diesem Schwenkhebel und dem Auslösehebel wird eine reine Schwenkmitnahmeverbindung vorgesehen, die Relativbewegungen zwischen Auslösehebel und Schwenkhebel, wie sie durch Deformationen des Türstirnblechs hervorgerufen werden, beispielsweise durch eine Langlochführung wirkungslos macht.The invention thus does that for the unwanted pivoting in the prior art responsible for the release lever of the lock in its release position Relative movements between the release lever and outside door handle ineffective in that the pulling element is not connected to the release lever, but to a swivel lever, which is mounted on an area of the door, that on the face plate-side deformations does not participate or hardly participates, i.e. maintains its position relative to the outside door handle. Between this swivel lever and the release lever becomes a pure one Swivel drive connection provided, the relative movements between Release lever and swivel lever, as caused by deformation of the door face plate caused, for example by an elongated hole ineffective.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand der Zeichnung erläutert, deren Figuren 1, 2 und 3 der nochmaligen Darstellung des Problems dienen, während die Figuren 4 und 5 bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung zeigen.The invention is explained below with reference to the drawing, the figures 1, 2 and 3 serve to represent the problem again, while FIGS. 4 and 5 show preferred embodiments of the invention.

Betrachtet man zunächst Figur 1, so erkennt man bei 1 das Türaußenblech, bei 2 das Türinnenblech und bei 3 das Türstirnblech, das in diesem Ausführungsfall einteilig mit dem Türinnenblech 2 ist. Dem Türstirnblech 3 steht - im normalen Betriebszustand des Kraftfahrzeugs unter Wahrung eines Türspalts 4 - die Türsäule 5 gegenüber. Das Türstirnblech 3 trägt auf seiner Innenseite das Türschloß 6 bekannten Aufbaus, beispielsweise ein Drehfallenschloß, dessen Auslösehebel 7 zur Erleichterung der Darstellung außerhalb des Schloßgehäuses angedeutet ist. Der Auslösehebel 7 steht über das Zugorgan 8, beispielsweise einen Seilzug oder einen Bowdenzug, in kraftübertragender Verbindung mit dem Türaußengriff 9, der in diesem Fall bei 10 schwenkbar am Außenblech 1 gelagert ist. Schwenkbewegungen des Türaußengriffs im Sinne des Pfeils 11 haben also eine Schwenkbewegung des Auslösehebels 7 in der Darstellung der Figuren im Uhrzeigersinne zur Folge; dadurch erfolgt beispielsweise eine Freigabe der Drehfalle des Schlosses 6 durch Ausheben eines Sperrhebels. Derartige Schloßkonstruktionen sind dem Fachmann bestens bekannt.If you first consider Figure 1, you can see 1 at the outer door panel, at 2 that Inner door panel and at 3 the front door panel, which in this embodiment is in one piece with the inner door panel 2 is. The door front panel 3 is - in the normal operating state of the Motor vehicle while maintaining a door gap 4 - the door pillar 5 opposite. The Door face plate 3 carries on its inside the door lock 6 of known construction, for example, a rotary latch lock, the release lever 7 to facilitate the Representation outside the lock housing is indicated. The trigger lever 7 is via the traction element 8, for example a cable or a Bowden cable, in force-transmitting connection with the outer door handle 9, which in this case at 10 is pivotally mounted on the outer plate 1. Pivotal movements of the outside door handle in The sense of arrow 11 thus have a pivoting movement of the release lever 7 in the Representation of the figures in a clockwise direction; this results in, for example Release of the catch of the lock 6 by lifting a locking lever. Such Lock designs are well known to those skilled in the art.

Die eben beschriebenen Verhältnisse beim Aufbringen einer Öffnungskraft auf den Türaußengriff 9 zeigt Figur 2.The conditions just described when applying an opening force to the Exterior door handle 9 is shown in FIG. 2.

Während im Normalfall, d.h. bei bewußter Betätigung des Türaußengriffs 9, nach wie vor der Türspalt 4 gewahrt ist, kann ein Frontalcrash des Fahrzeugs, der den nun anhand Figur 3 zu beschreibenden Verhältnissen zugrundeliegt, dazu führen, daß die Türsäule 5 unter Aufhebung des bisher mit 4 bezeichneten Türspalts Druckkräfte auf das Türstirnblech 3 ausübt, die dieses in der Darstellung der Figuren, die Horizontalschnitte wiedergeben, gleichsam nach hinten verlagern. Das bedeutet auch eine entsprechende Bewegung des Schlosses 6 mit dem Auslösehebel 7 relativ zu dem Türgriff 9, so daß infolge der Zugfestigkeit des Zugorgans 8 das Ende des Auslösehebels 7 und damit die Anlenkstelle des Zugorgans 8 einen Kreisbogen um die Anlenkung des Zugorgans am Außengriff 9 beschreibt. Demgemäß schwenkt der Auslösehebel 7, wie in Figur 3 dargestellt, im Uhrzeigersinne, d.h. er führt eine Bewegung aus, die der Bewegung entspricht, die er bei bewußter Betätigung des Außengriffs 9 vollführt. Dies hat ein Freigeben der Tür zum Öffnen zur Folge, was aber gerade bei einem Crash verhindert werden muß.While normally, i.e. with conscious actuation of the outside door handle 9, as before the door gap 4 is maintained, a frontal crash of the vehicle, which is now based on the Figure 3 is based on the conditions to be described, lead to the door pillar 5th canceling the door gap previously designated 4 compressive forces on the Door end panel 3 exercises this in the illustration of the figures, the horizontal sections play, as it were, shift backwards. That also means a corresponding one Movement of the lock 6 with the release lever 7 relative to the door handle 9, so that due to the tensile strength of the tension member 8, the end of the release lever 7 and thus the Articulation point of the tension member 8 a circular arc around the articulation of the tension member on External handle 9 describes. Accordingly, the trigger lever 7 pivots, as in FIG. 3 shown, clockwise, i.e. he makes a movement, that of movement corresponds to that he carries out with conscious actuation of the outer handle 9. This has one This results in the door being opened, which prevents it in the event of a crash must become.

Figur 4 zeigt eine erste Ausführungsform der Erfindung, die diesen gefährlichen Nachteil des Standes der Technik ausschließt: Zur Erleichterung des Vergleichs mit dem eben beschriebenen Stand der Technik sind die bereits vorkommenden Teile mit denselben Bezugszeichen versehen. Das Zugorgan 8 greift nicht mehr, wie beim Stand der Technik, an dem Auslösehebel 7 an, sondern an dem gabelartig ausgeführten Ende 20 des Schwenkhebels 21, der mit seinem anderen Ende bei 22 schwenkbar über den Sockel 23 mit dem Türinnenblech 2 verbunden ist. Diese Schwenkbefestigung des Schwenkhebels 21 erfolgt also an einer Stelle der Tür, die verschieden ist von dem deformationsgefährdeten Türstirnblechbereich 4. Der Schwenkhebel 21 erstreckt sich im wesentlichen parallel zum Außen- und Innenblech 1 bzw. 2. Mit dem durch die Gabel 20 gebildeten Langloch 24, das zur Aufnahme des Querbolzens 25 an dem Ende des Auslösehebels 7 dient, bildet der Schwenkhebel 21 eine reine Schwenkmitnahmeverbindung, d.h. Relativbewegungen des Schlosses 6 mit dem Auslösehebel 7 in der Darstellung der Figur 4 nach unten werden auf den Schwenkhebel 21 und damit auf das Zugorgan 8 nicht übertragen. Damit kann bei derartigen crashbedingten Deformationen des Türstirnblechs 3 sich der Auslösehebel 7 also relativ zum Schwenkhebel 21 und damit auch relativ zum Zugorgan 8 und zum Außengriff 9 bewegen, ohne daß auf ihn eine Querkraft übertragen wird, die zu einer unerwünschten Auslösebewegung des Auslösehebels 7 führt.Figure 4 shows a first embodiment of the invention which has this dangerous disadvantage of the prior art excludes: To facilitate comparison with the just State of the art described are the parts that already occur with the same Provide reference numerals. The traction element 8 no longer engages, as in the state of the Technology on the trigger lever 7, but on the fork-like end 20 of the pivot lever 21, which is pivotable at 22 with its other end over the Base 23 is connected to the inner door panel 2. This swivel mount the Swivel lever 21 thus takes place at a point on the door that is different from that Door end panel area 4 at risk of deformation. The pivot lever 21 extends in the essentially parallel to the outer and inner sheet 1 or 2. With the through the fork 20th formed slot 24, which is used to receive the cross bolt 25 at the end of the Trigger lever 7 is used, the pivot lever 21 forms a pure Swivel drive connection, i.e. Relative movements of the lock 6 with the Release lever 7 in the illustration of Figure 4 down on the pivot lever 21 and thus not transferred to the tension member 8. It can be used in such Deformation of the door end panel 3 caused by the crash, the release lever 7 is therefore relatively to the pivot lever 21 and thus also relative to the pulling element 8 and to the outer handle 9 move without a transverse force is transferred to it, which leads to an undesirable Trigger movement of the trigger lever 7 leads.

Es kann vorteilhaft sein, den Sockel 23 statt, wie gezeichnet, am Innenblech 2 nahe dem Punkt 10 am Außenblech 1 festzulegen, so daß Relativbewegungen zwischen Türaußengriff 9 und Schwenkhebel 21 vermieden sind.It may be advantageous to place the base 23 on the inner panel 2 near the, as shown Determine point 10 on the outer plate 1 so that relative movements between Outside door handle 9 and pivot lever 21 are avoided.

In Figur 5 ist die eben anhand Figur 4 beschriebene Ausführungsform der Erfindung dadurch ergänzt, daß im Bereich des Schwenklagers des Schwenkhebels 21 eine derart ausgelegte Schwenksperre 26 vorgesehen ist, daß sie Schwenkbewegungen des Schwenkhebels 21 und damit auch des Auslösehebels 7 dann unterbindet, wenn ihre Geschwindigkeiten und/oder Beschleunigungen so hoch sind, daß sie nicht durch manuelle Betätigung des Türaußengriffs 9, sondern nur durch einen Crash erzeugt sein können. Derartige geschwindigkeits- bzw. beschleunigungsabhängige Einrichtungen sind bestens bekannt beispielsweise aus der Technik der Aufrollautomaten für Sicherheitsgurte, also auf dem letztlich auch hier vorliegenden Gebiet der Sicherheitstechnik für Kraftfahrzeuge.FIG. 5 shows the embodiment of the invention just described with reference to FIG. 4 supplemented by the fact that in the region of the pivot bearing of the pivot lever 21 designed swivel lock 26 is provided that it swivels the Swivel lever 21 and thus also the release lever 7 is prevented when their Speeds and / or accelerations are so high that they cannot pass through manual actuation of the outer door handle 9, but only be generated by a crash can. Such speed or acceleration-dependent devices are best known for example from the technology of automatic reels for Seat belts, that is to say in the ultimately also present area of the Safety technology for motor vehicles.

Mit der Erfindung ist demgemäß mit einfachen Mitteln eine gattungsgemäße Verschlußanordnung geschaffen, die nicht nur das Öffnen einer Kraftfahrzeug-Seitentür im Crashfalle durch ungewollte Betätigung des Auslösehebels des Schlosses verhindert, sondern infolge Vermeidung von Deformation oder Zerstörung im Crashfalle unterliegenden Teilen auch die Möglichkeit bietet, nach dem Crash durch Betätigen des Türaußengriffs die Tür zu öffnen.With the invention is a generic with simple means Closure arrangement created that not only opens a motor vehicle side door prevented in the event of a crash by unintentional actuation of the lock release lever, but as a result of avoiding deformation or destruction in the event of a crash underlying parts also offers the possibility after the crash by pressing the Outside door handle to open the door.
