Definitions

  • the electric motor drive thus serves the pawl to adjust or act like this is basically described in DE 196 50 826 A1. Comparable procedures are the subject of DE 195 30 726 A1. As part of the latter pre-publication an electric door lock with servo opening is described, in which the pawl via an output cam is excavated. Such a door lock or a associated motor vehicle door lock is usually with a keyless entry system combined.
  • the vehicle user generally carries an identification device, e.g. B. a transponder yourself.
  • Such devices are in DE 35 36 377 A1 described.
  • the outer door handle is actuated or when approaching the hand of a vehicle user on the outside door handle (See also DE 195 16 316 C2 in this regard) a dialogue between the motor vehicle and the identification device built up. If the authorization of the vehicle user is determined appropriate signals from the on-board electronics to the electromotive drive for the servo opening given that cause the pawl to be electromotive (and not manually).
  • the invention is based on the technical problem a method of the type described above, the comfort to increase, especially to ensure that an adjustment of the vehicle user to the individual processes of electric servo opening is prevented. In addition, should a correspondingly designed motor vehicle door lock be created.
  • the invention proposes generic method that restarting the electric motor drive for transferring the pawl in their starting position following his stop in raised position of the pawl only after a predetermined Time period and / or after fully opening the catch occurs so that the pawl overall after opening the rotary latch completely into her Starting position is transferred.
  • the above-mentioned period is usually constant and depending on empirical experience set. Take these empirical values into account measured or determined times, the regular to open the motor vehicle door and thus the catch required are. Of course, that is within the framework time set according to the invention rather in the upper range the aforementioned and measured or determined Operating times to definitely be a complete one To ensure opening of the catch.
  • the predefined one Time span by means of one of the actuating devices assigned actuation sensor triggered timer can be set.
  • this actuation sensor it is like the one to be described below Switch sensor - around any possible sensor, which one sensor signals influenced by the actuating device delivers. These sensor signals can be switching signals or be position-dependent sensor signals.
  • a short one is enough Impulse to trigger the timer, which is usually is adjustable, d. H. with (factory) variable time period works.
  • the actuation sensor becomes or becomes and thus the timer by applying or operating or tapping the actuator. Since the Actuating device, in particular in the case of a sliding door, regularly as a forward or about a vertical axis Rear door handle that swivels in relation to the direction of travel trained, leads a corresponding Swiveling or tapping this outside door handle to the desired one Actuation of the actuation sensor and thus Triggering the timer.
  • the timing element is in general and the actuation sensor is connected to a control device or even their components, the control device Signals emitted by the sensors are time-dependent evaluates.
  • Actuating sensor of the electric motor drive - if necessary after checking the authorization of the vehicle user - acted upon to pivot the pawl, usually from the control device. this will carried out regularly until over the switch sensor the raised position of the pawl is detected. Then the electric motor drive - as described - stopped (stopover) until it is Restart (by the control device or the timer) is initiated, and after the elapse of the predetermined period of time.
  • actuating device assigned actuating device, e.g. B. Outside door handle switch, query.
  • actuation sensor is with the above-described motor vehicle door locks mostly made mandatory because this actuation sensor usually the dialogue between Identification device and motor vehicle or motor vehicle door lock starts, as in DE 35 36 377 A1.
  • the invention is based on the knowledge that the complete opening of the catch as it were Letting go of the outer door handle corresponds, therefore via the actuation sensor usually provided here anyway can be reliably queried.
  • a (actuation) sensor e.g. B. Hall sensor, directly to be attached to the rotary latch and the rotary latch position to query accordingly.
  • the invention preferably provides that restarting the electric motor drive is only made when the actuation sensor is switched off, e.g. B. with the outside door handle released and thus fully opened catch.
  • the application of the electric motor drive is generally like this long continued until the switch sensor then again Detected pawl reached starting position and the electric motor drive is stopped.
  • the invention also relates to a motor vehicle door lock, as described in claim 6.
  • Advantageous configurations of this motor vehicle door lock are the subject of claims 7 to 10.
  • a motor vehicle door lock with a Actuator 1 in the embodiment Motor vehicle door lock shown on a sliding door.
  • the actuating device 1 is a vertically around an axis A forwards or backwards in comparison outer door handle pivotable to the direction of travel 1.
  • On an actuation sensor 2 is arranged on this outside door handle 1, which is acted upon by the outer door handle 1 and detects at least one position of the outer door handle 1.
  • This at least one position of the outer door handle 1 is queried in such a way that the actuation sensor 2 by triggering or tapping the actuating device 1 or the outer door handle 1 is triggered.
  • T1 which to open the sliding door or the one there and illustrated motor vehicle door lock corresponds (see also Fig. 4).
  • an electric motor drive 3 which essentially consists of an electric motor 3a and one Worm shaft 3b exists.
  • This worm shaft 3b combs with a driven pulley 4.
  • To the switching control curve 6 belongs to a switch sensor 8, which is after the Embodiment in FIGS. 1 and 2 around a switch 8 acts while the embodiment in Fig. 3 shows a Hall sensor 8 at this point. In both cases the switch sensor 8 is used to determine switching times S1, S2 as described in detail below is (see Fig. 4).
  • actuation sensors can also be used 2 and switching sensors 8 can be realized. It also lies in the context of the invention, output control curve 5 and shift control curve 6 (as well as output pulley 4, if applicable) to form a component. This also applies to the two aforementioned sensors 2, 8, as long as the following described at least two angular positions of the driven pulley 4 can be determined correctly.
  • a pawl 9 acted upon with a rotating barrel 10 in the usual manner cooperates.
  • the pawl 9 that with the door closed and thus closed Catch (see FIG. 1) the catch 10 is blocked.
  • the catch 10 can also be electromotive in the sense an opening aid for the associated motor vehicle door operate.
  • the pawl 9 is a three-armed pawl 9 with a pawl arm 9a, which in a corresponding advance or main stop of the Rotary latch 10 occurs. There is also a pawl arm 9b, which is spring-supported on the output control curve 5 is present. Finally, there is a third pawl arm 9c realized, which with a (only indicated) Interior operating lever 11 cooperates so that Pawl 9 triggered by the inner operating lever 11 can be what to improve passenger safety contributes.
  • Actuating device 1 becomes a timer 17 triggered the actuation sensor 2.
  • This timer 17 ensures that the drive 3 according to a predetermined and variable time period t starts again, as in the Fig. 4 is shown.
  • This time period t is generally set constant at the factory and depends on empirically determined empirical values. The beginning of the 4 is congruent with the time T1 during the end of the period t at a time T2 corresponds. Basically, of course, too another start time can be set.
  • Drive 3 runs for a starting at time T1 at a certain time and then make a stopover. This can be the case starting with time S1, as will be explained below. Following there the expiration of the time period t or the time T2 the Restart of drive 3 before time S2.
  • an indicated ignition key 12 provided a dialogue with a control device 13 begins as soon as the actuation sensor 2 is on Operating the outer door handle 1 determines.
  • Ignition key 12 can also be a passive identity device are used at this point, e.g. Legs Chip card, magnetic card M or the like.
  • the ignition key 12 on a transponder 14, which according to Sending a question code signal from the control device 13 sends back a corresponding response code signal.
  • the question code signal sent out by the control device 13 is here from a connected or integrated Identification device 13a with the actuation sensor 2 activatable transponders emitted.
  • the actuation sensor is acted upon 2 the aforementioned identification, at the end of which either the electric motor drive 3 from the control device 13 is applied or not (if it is an unauthorized vehicle user).
  • This (Identification) routine is for the present invention not mandatory, but is usually used.
  • the electric motor drive 3 is now dependent from the positions queried by means of the switching sensor 8 Shift control cam 6 actuated so that the driven pulley 4 - Starting and ending in that shown in Fig. 1 Starting position of the driven pulley 4 or the pawl 9 - the pawl 9 using the output control curve 5 panned.
  • the pawl 9 is turned counterclockwise an axis 15 rotated against spring force, namely up to the position in Fig. 2 is reached. happenss in detail this in such a way that the electric motor drive 3 in raised position of the pawl 9 (see. Fig. 2) stopped will be a stopover within the Period between times S1 and T2 (cf. Fig. 4). A restart of the electric motor drive 3 for transferring the pawl 9 into its initial position 1 is only after full opening the catch 10 or after the end of the period t carried out.
  • the actuation sensor 2 and the switch sensor 8 are also like the timer 17 to the aforementioned control device 13 connected, with a view to the aforementioned Sensors 2, 8 time-dependent sensor signals evaluated become. Taking into account the timing element 17, a Setting the time t using the control device 13 done. It is also conceivable that the timer 17 in to integrate the control device 13.
  • the electric motor drive 3 lifts the pawl 9 temporally between the triggered actuation sensor 2 (Time T1) and the triggered switching sensor 8 (time S1) - acted upon by the control device 13 - out. In this position, the pawl 9 is fixed or recorded (stopover until time T2). First after the period t has elapsed, the electric motor runs Drive 3 on again and finally stops when switched off Switch sensor 8 (time S2) in the starting position the pawl 9 (see. Fig. 4).

  • the magnet or magnetic Material is according to the embodiment plastic-bonded hard ferrite.
  • the shape of the magnet is circular segment-shaped, with individual circular segments with the Output control curve 5 are glued.
  • the duration of the stopover is determined by the time period t or the end time T2, after which the drive 3 starts again. This restart of the drive 3 is held until switching point S2 is reached. This ensures that the pawl 9 in its starting position only after fully opening the catch 10 is transferred.
  • the restart can of the electric motor drive 3 without additional Measures take place easily. If T2 is earlier than T2 ', so the restart will usually be tied to T2. If, on the other hand, the time period t has already passed before the Actuation sensor 2 is turned off (i.e. T2 follows T2 ' time), the restart usually starts at the time T2 ', whereby there is no question that the procedure is reversed can be.
  • the switch sensor 8 By using two regularly available Sensors, namely on the one hand the actuation sensor 2, on the other hand, the switch sensor 8, a clear succeed Comfort improvement without additional circuit or manufacturing expenditure. Rather, the intelligent evaluation of the switching edges generated or switching times S1, S2, T1, T2 in the control device 13 in conjunction with that specified by the timing element 17 Time t the representation of the described Functions.
  • switching control curve 6 Due to the symmetrical design of the switching control curve 6 in the form of the at least one magnet or the magnetic Materials or the cam curve is beyond ensures that this switching control curve 6 in combination with both a right and a left Motor vehicle door lock - without change - used can come.
