Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gehäuse für eine Lastverstellvorrichtung eines die Leistung einer Brennkraftmaschine bestimmenden, insbesondere als Drosselklappe ausgebildeten Stellglieds, mit zwei Gehäuseteilen zur Aufnahme eines Getriebes und/oder eines reversierbaren Stellantriebs der Lastverstellvorrichtung und mit einem Befestigungsmittel zur formschlüssigen Verbindung der Gehäuseteile untereinander; siehe z.B. D E-A-19540586.The invention relates to a housing for a load adjustment device one the performance of an internal combustion engine determining, in particular designed as a throttle Actuator, with two housing parts for receiving a Transmission and / or a reversible actuator the load adjustment device and with a fastening means for the positive connection of the housing parts among themselves; see, e.g. D E-A-19540586.

Gehäuse der vorstehenden Art sind meist an einem Drosselklappenstutzen befestigt und sind von Brennkraftmaschinen beispielsweise von Kraftfahrzeugen bekannt. Die Gehäuseteile nehmen die im allgemeinen als E-Gas bezeichnete Lastverstellvorrichtung auf. Bei dem bekannten Gehäuse hat eines der Gehäuseteile Rasthaken zum Hintergreifen von Rastausnehmungen des jeweils anderen Gehäuseteils. Die Rasthaken sind dabei einteilig mit ihrem Gehäuseteil gefertigt. Housing of the above type are usually on a throttle body attached and are of internal combustion engines For example, known from motor vehicles. The housing parts take the commonly referred to as e-gas Load adjustment on. In the known housing has one of the housing parts latching hook for grasping behind of recesses of the other housing part. The latching hooks are one-piece with their housing part manufactured.

Nachteilig bei dem bekannten Gehäuse ist, daß sich durch die Rasthaken keine großen Vorspannkräfte auf die Gehäuseteile übertragen lassen. Hierdurch ist eine dauerhafte Dichtheit des Gehäuses nicht gewährleistet.A disadvantage of the known housing is that through the locking hooks no great biasing forces on the housing parts transfer. This is a permanent Leakage of the housing is not guaranteed.

Der Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, ein Gehäuse der eingangs genannten Art so zu gestalten, daß eine dauerhafte Dichtheit zuverlässig gewährleistet ist.The invention is based on the problem, a housing of the the type mentioned above so that a permanent Tightness is reliably guaranteed.

Dieses Problem wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß das Befestigungsmittel als von einem der Gehäuseteile gehalterter Blechstreifen ausgebildet ist und daß der Blechstreifen Mittel zum Hintergreifen des anderen Gehäuseteils aufweist.This problem is inventively achieved in that the fastener as held by one of the housing parts Sheet metal strip is formed and that of Metal strip means for engaging behind the other housing part having.

Durch diese Gestaltung können die Gehäuseteile bei entsprechender Gestaltung des Blechstreifens mit sehr großen Kräften gegeneinander vorgespannt werden. Weiterhin werden punktuelle Belastungen der Gehäuseteile, wie sie häufig bei einer geringen Anzahl von Rasthaken entstehen, bei einer entsprechend breiten Gestaltung des Blechstreifens vermieden. Eine Rißbildung der Gehäuseteile läßt sich deshalb dank der Erfindung einfach ausschließen. Hierdurch wird eine sehr große Dichtheit des Gehäuses sichergestellt. Ein weiterer Vorteil dieser Gestaltung besteht darin, daß sich die Gehäuseteile jeweils besonders kostengünstig fertigen lassen, da keine Rasthaken und Durchbrüche für die Rasthaken benötigt werden.Through this design, the housing parts can be at appropriate Design of the metal strip with very large Forces are biased against each other. Continue to be punctual loads on the housing parts, as they often do arise with a small number of latching hooks, at a correspondingly wide design of the metal strip avoided. Cracks the housing parts leaves Therefore, thanks to the invention simply exclude. As a result, a very large tightness of the housing is ensured. Another advantage of this design is in that the housing parts in each case particularly inexpensive to manufacture, because no latching hook and Breakthroughs are required for the latching hooks.

Die von dem Blechstreifen auf die Gehäuseteile übertragenen Vorspannkräfte lassen sich gemäß einer vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung gleichmäßig über die aneinandergrenzenden Bereiche der Gehäuseteile verteilen, wenn der Blechstreifen eine zur Hintergreifung eines umlaufenden, auf einem der Gehäuseteile angeordneten Randes gestaltete Umbördelung aufweist. Hierbei kann der Blechstreifen mit seinen Rändern jeweils einen umlaufenden Rand der Gehäuseteile hintergreifen, wobei eine der Hintergreifungen an dem Blechstreifen vorgeformt sein kann, während die andere Hintergreifung bei der Montage des Gehäuses von der Umbördelung erzeugt wird.The transferred from the sheet metal strip on the housing parts Preload forces can be according to an advantageous Development of the invention evenly over the adjacent Distribute areas of the housing parts when the metal strip one for Hintergreifung a circumferential, designed on one of the housing parts arranged edge Beading has. Here, the metal strip with its edges one circumferential each Behind grab the edge of the housing parts, with one of the Hintergreifungen may be preformed on the sheet metal strip, while the other Hintergreifung during the assembly of the housing is generated by the bead.

Das erfindungsgemäße Gehäuse hat besonders wenige zu montierende Bauteile, wenn das topfförmig zur alleinigen Aufnahme eines Getriebes der Lastverstellvorrichtung gestaltete Gehäuseteil den umlaufenden Rand aufweist und wenn das einen Deckel bildende Gehäuseteil einteilig mit dem Blechstreifen gefertigt ist.The housing according to the invention has very few to be mounted Components, if the cup-shaped to the sole Recording a transmission of Lastverstellvorrichtung designed Housing part has the peripheral edge and if the housing part forming a cover integral with the sheet metal strip is made.

Die einteilige Gestaltung des Blechstreifens mit dem Gehäuseteil läßt sich gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung einfach erzeugen, wenn eines der Gehäuseteile aus Kunststoff im Spritzgußverfahren gefertigt ist und wenn der Blechstreifen an diesem Gehäuseteil angespritzt ist. Zum Anspritzen kann der Blechstreifen hierdurch einfach in die Spritzgußform des Gehäuseteils eingelegt werden. Beim Ausfüllen der Spritzgußform mit Kunststoff wird der Blechstreifen mit dem Gehäuseteil verbunden.The one-piece design of the metal strip with the housing part can be according to another advantageous Develop the invention easily, if one the housing parts made of plastic by injection molding is and if the sheet metal strip on this housing part is injected. For spraying the metal strip thereby simply into the injection mold of the housing part be inserted. When filling the injection mold Plastic is the metal strip with the housing part connected.

Der Blechstreifen ist gemäß einer anderen vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung zuverlässig mit dem Gehäuseteil verbunden, wenn der Blechstreifen in seinem von dem Gehäuseteil umspritzten Bereich eine Abwinklung oder Ausnehmungen aufweist.The metal strip is advantageous according to another Development of the invention reliably with the housing part connected when the metal strip in his from the Housing part encapsulated area an angled portion or recesses having.

Der Blechstreifen könnte aus einem nahezu beliebigen Material gefertigt sein. Der Blechstreifen hat jedoch ein besonders geringes Gewicht und vermag die Gehäuseteile dauerhaft miteinander zu verbinden, wenn der Blechstreifen aus Aluminium gefertigt ist. The metal strip could be made of almost any material be made. However, the metal strip has one very light weight and can handle the housing parts permanently connect with each other when the sheet metal strip made of aluminum.

Der Blechstreifen könnte beispielsweise mehrere voneinander getrennte Abschnitte aufweisen. Die Montage des erfindungsgemäßen Gehäuses gestaltet sich jedoch besonders kostengünstig, wenn der Blechstreifen in dem gesamten aneinandergrenzenden Bereich der Gehäuseteile umlaufend gestaltet ist.The metal strip could, for example, several from each other have separate sections. The assembly of the invention Housing is designed especially cost-effective if the metal strip in the entire adjoining Area of the housing parts designed circumferentially is.
