Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Abdeckvorrichtung für einen Schließzylinder, insbesondere an einer Fahrzeugtür gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1. Derartige Abdeckvorrichtungen werden, zum einen aus optischen Gründen und zum anderen als Schutz vor Verschmutzung des Schließzylinders eingesetzt.The invention relates to a covering device for a Lock cylinder, in particular on a vehicle door according to the preamble of claim 1. Such cover devices, on the one hand for optical reasons and on the other hand as protection against pollution of the lock cylinder used.

Bei der bekannten Vorrichtung der oben genannten Art (DE 197 24 573 A1) handelt es sich um eine aufschiebbar ausgeführte Blende. Im Inneren des kappenartigen Abdeckelementes sind Vorsprünge vorgesehen, die in Nuten in der Umgebung des Schließzylinders eingreifen können und in Abdeckstellung verrasten. Nachteilig ist die leichte Verlierbarkeit des Abdeckelementes. Zur Betätigung des Schlosses mittels eines Schlüssels muss nämlich stets das gesamte Abdeckelement vollständig von dem Gehäuse des zu betätigenden Schließzylinders getrennt werden. Über kurz oder lang ist fast zwangsläufig mit einem Verlust der Abdeckkappe zu rechnen. Zwar ließe sich Abhilfe dadurch schaffen, dass die Nuten in der Umgebung des Gehäuses mit einem Anschlag versehen werden, über den das Abdeckelement nicht hinausgeschoben werden kann, wie beispielsweise in FR 2 753 475 vorgeschlagen. Dies bringt jedoch weitere Nachteile. Hierzu wäre es nämlich notwendig, das Gehäuse extrem langgestreckt zu gestalten. Die Abdeckkappe muß nämlich durch Verschiebung den Schließzylinder sowie den zur Betätigung des Schlüssels notwendigen Platz vollständig freigeben. Gleichzeitig muß allerdings auch noch für eine ausreichende Führung und Halterung des Abdeckelementes gesorgt sein. Eine derart langgestreckte Gestaltung des Gehäuses ist platzaufwendig, optisch wenig wünschenswert und sollte daher vermieden werden. In Fig. 5 dieses Dokumentes DE 197 24 573 A1 wird des weiteren die Möglichkeit gezeigt, daß Einführen des Schlüssels in den Zylinder durch Verschwenken einer Abdeckkappe zu ermöglichen. Dadurch werden in der Regel Gelenkpartien der Abdeckkappe sichtbar. Dies ist unerwünscht. Zum anderen wird das Drehen des Schlüssels im Zylinder bei den heute üblichen großen Schlüsselköpfen durch die aufgeschwenkte Abdeckkappe behindert. Ein Weiterschwenken der Abdeckkappe auf beinahe 180° ist jedoch bei vertieft in der Türaußenhaut liegenden Zylindern kaum möglich.In the known device of the type mentioned above (DE 197 24 573 A1) is a slide-on version Cover. There are projections inside the cap-like cover element provided which engage in grooves in the vicinity of the lock cylinder can and lock in the cover position. The slight is disadvantageous Detachability of the cover element. To operate the lock using a key must always cover the entire cover element completely separated from the housing of the locking cylinder to be operated become. Sooner or later is almost inevitably at a loss the cover cap. This could be remedied by that the grooves around the housing with a stop be provided, over which the cover element is not pushed can be proposed, such as in FR 2 753 475. This however has other disadvantages. For this it would be necessary that To make the housing extremely elongated. The cap must be by moving the lock cylinder and the one for actuation Completely free up the space required for the key. simultaneously However, must also be sufficient guidance and support of the cover element. Such an elongated design the housing is space-consuming, optically less desirable and should therefore be avoided. 5 of this document DE 197 24 573 A1, the possibility is further shown that the introduction of the Key into the cylinder by pivoting a cover cap enable. As a rule, this creates joint parts of the cover cap visible. This is undesirable. On the other hand, turning the Key in the cylinder of today's large key heads hindered by the pivoted cover cap. A further swing however, the cover cap at almost 180 ° is recessed in the outer skin of the door horizontal cylinders hardly possible.

DE-PS 802 047 und DE 297 22 438 U1 offenbaren jeweils eine Abdeckvorrichtung, bei welcher der Schlüsselschlitz des Schließzylinders durch ein im Griff integriertes, verschieblich gelagertes Abdeckplättchen abgedeckt wird. Dies bietet zwar einen effizienten Schutz gegen Verschmutzung des Schlüsselschlitzes und löst auch das Problem der Verlierbarkeit, läßt sich jedoch nicht in optisch geschlossener Form realisieren, da das Plättchen stets flach, nämlich in seiner Schiebe- bzw. Schwenkebene gelgen, zu sein hat.DE-PS 802 047 and DE 297 22 438 U1 each disclose a covering device, in which the key slot of the lock cylinder through a slidably mounted cover plate integrated in the handle becomes. This does provide efficient protection against pollution of the key slot and also solves the problem of being lost, can not be realized in an optically closed form, however the plate is always flat, namely in its sliding or swiveling plane lie to be.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Abdeckvorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art zu entwickeln, die die vorerwähnten Nachteile überwindet. Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Merkmale des kennzeichenden Teils von Anspruch 1. Diesen kommt im Einzelnen folgende Bedeutung zu. The object of the present invention is to provide a covering device for the to develop the type mentioned above, the disadvantages mentioned overcomes. This problem is solved by the characteristics of the characteristic Part of claim 1. This comes in detail as follows to.

Eine mittelbare Verbindung zwischen dem Abdeckelement und dem Gehäuse wird durch ein bewegliches Zwischenglied realisiert, das den Führungsmitteln zuzurechnen ist, welche eine vorbestimmte Bahn für die Überführung des Abdeckelementes zwischen der Offen- und der Abdeckstellung vorsehen. Das erfindungsgemäße Zwischenglied ist als Schwenkhebel ausgeführt und kann z.B. einteilig und starr, aber auch mehrteilig ausgeführt sein. Die einzelnen, in sich vorzugsweise starren Teile können insbesondere durch Gelenke und/oder Führungselemente miteinander verbunden sein. Auf andere Weise, z.B. faden- oder drahtartig gestaltete Zwischenelemente würden eine unkontrollierte Bewegung des Abdeckelementes ermöglichen. Solche Zwischenelemente können bei gelöster Abdeckkappe zu Lackschäden führen. Durch seine Formgebung als Schwenkebel ist das erfindungsgemäße Zwischenglied ist geeignet, den vom Abdeckelement bei der Überführung von der einen in die andere Stellung zurückzulegenden Weg über die eigentlichen Abmessungen des Abdeckelementes und/oder des Gehäuses hinaus zu verlängern. Damit kann der für die Betätigung des Schließzylinders notwendige Freiraum geschaffen werden ohne das Gehäuse und/oder das Abdeckelement störend langgestreckte zu gestalten. Die Verwendung des erfindungsgemäßen Schwenkhebel-Zwischengliedes bietet sich besonders an, wenn die Schließeinheit aus Schließzylinder 10 und Gehäuse 50 in einer Vertiefung 17 des Türflügels 16 vorgesehen ist. Dann nämlich ist ein reines Verschieben des Abdeckelementes 16, wie aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt, unmöglich.An indirect connection between the cover element and the housing is realized by a movable intermediate link, which the guide means is to be assigned which is a predetermined path for the transfer of the cover element provide between the open and cover positions. The invention The intermediate link is designed as a swivel lever and can e.g. one-piece and rigid, but also be made in several parts. The individual, in itself preferably rigid parts can in particular by joints and / or guide elements be connected. In other ways, e.g. thread or wire-like intermediate elements would become an uncontrolled movement enable the cover element. Such intermediate elements can be solved Lead the cover cap to paint damage. Due to its shape as Swiveling lever is the intermediate link according to the invention is suitable, the Covering element to be covered during the transfer from one position to the other Path over the actual dimensions of the cover element and / or extend the housing. It can be used for actuation necessary clearance of the locking cylinder can be created without the housing and / or to design the cover element to be disruptively elongated. The usage of the pivot lever intermediate member according to the invention especially when the locking unit from lock cylinder 10 and Housing 50 is provided in a recess 17 of the door leaf 16. Then namely is a pure displacement of the cover member 16, like known from the prior art, impossible.

Die Fign. 1 bis 4 geben eine besonders vorteilhafte Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Abdeckvorrichtung wieder. Sie läßt sich in im wesentlichen bekannte Systeme, bestehend aus Türflügel 16, Handhabe 14, Schließzylinder 10 mit Schlüsselschlitz 11 und Schließgehäuse 50 integrieren. Das Schlüsselgehäuse läßt sich in einen im Türflügel 16 versenkten Gehäuseschaft 51 und einen von außen sichtbaren Gehäusekopf 52 unterteilen In der Abdeckstellung deckt das Abdeckelement 60 den Schließzylinder 10 mit Schlüsselschlitz 11 sowie den Gehäusekopf 52 vollständig ab. In der Offenstellung, in welche das Abdeckelement 60 auf vorbestimmter Bahn überführbar ist, sind der Schlüsselschlitz 11 vollständig und der Schließzylinder 10 sowie der Gehäusekopf 52 wenigstens soweit freigelegt, dass eine Betätigung des Schließmechanismus vermittels eines Schlüssels 12 ermöglicht wird. D.h. ein Schlüsselschaft 13 muß in den Schlüsselschlitz 11 einführbar sein und auch für die Drehung des Schlüsselschgriffes muß genügend Raum zur Verfügung stehen.The figures 1 to 4 give a particularly advantageous embodiment of the covering device according to the invention again. It can be essentially broken down into known systems, consisting of door leaf 16, handle 14, Integrate lock cylinder 10 with key slot 11 and lock housing 50. The key housing can be countersunk in a door leaf 16 Housing shaft 51 and a housing head visible from the outside 52 divide In the cover position, cover element 60 covers the lock cylinder 10 with key slot 11 and the housing head 52 completely. In the open position, in which the cover element 60 can be transferred on a predetermined path, are the key slot 11 complete and the lock cylinder 10 and the housing head 52 exposed at least to the extent that actuation of the locking mechanism is made possible by means of a key 12. That on Key shaft 13 must be insertable into the key slot 11 and there must also be enough space for turning the key handle To be available.

Deutlich erkennbar in den Fign. 1 bis 4 ist die Ausgestaltung des Zwischengliedes als Schwenkhebel. Der Schwenkhebel 70 ist mit Schwenkachsen 73, 74 versehen, die einerseits in Schwenklagern 54 am Gehäusekopf 52 und andererseits Schwenklager 64 im Abdeckelement 60 gelagert sind. Die in den Fig. 1 bis 4 gezeigte Ausführungsform weist eine flache Gestaltung des Schwenkhebels 70 auf, wobei sich an einen Steg 71 Ausleger 72 anschließen, welche in die Schwenkachsen 73, 74 übergehen. Aus Gründen der Materialersparnis ist diese Formgebung besonders günstig. Andere, die ihrer Wirkung äquivalente Formgebungen sind selbstverständlich möglich.Clearly recognizable in the fig. 1 to 4 is the design of the intermediate link as a swivel lever. The pivot lever 70 is with pivot axes 73, 74 provided on the one hand in pivot bearings 54 on the housing head 52 and on the other hand pivot bearing 64 is mounted in the cover element 60 are. The embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 has one flat design of the pivot lever 70, with one Connect web 71 to jib 72, which fits into pivot axes 73, 74 pass. This design is special to save material Cheap. Others that have shapes equivalent to their effect are of course possible.

Die Schwenklager 54, 64 bzw. die entsprechenden Vorrichtungen im Abdeckelement 60 sind jeweils in der Nähe derjenigen Enden des Gehäusekopfes 52 bzw. des Abdeckelementes 60 angeordnet, die in Offenstellung einander zugewandt sind. Gleichzeitig ist die gesamte Länge des Schwenkhebels 70 so bemessen, dass er kürzer ist als die Distanz zwischen den Schwenklagern 64 im Abdeckelement 60 und der vorderen Abschlusswand 62 des Abdeckelementes 60. Hierdurch wird ermöglicht, dass das Abdeckelement 60 in Abdeckstellung den gesamten Gehäusekopf 52 einschließlich Schließzylinder 10 mit Schlüsselschlitz 11 und den gesamten Schwenkhebel 70 abdeckt. Gleichzeitig ist in Offenstellung das Abdeckelement 60so weit vom Gehäusekopf 52 entfernbar, dass der gesamte Schließzylinder 10 mit Schlüsselschlitz 11 freigegeben wird, womit der Freiraum zur Betätigung des Schlüssels 12 maximiert wird. Aus ästhetischen Gründen ist es vorteilhaft, die der vorderen Abschlußwand 62 des Abdeckelementes 60 gegenüberliegende Begrenzung mit einer Ausnehmung 61 zu versehen, durch welche der Schwenkhebel 70 in der Offenstellung hindurchgreift. Hierdurch kann das Abdeckelement 60 in Offenstellung mit wenigstens dem größten Teil seiner unteren Berandung auf dem Türflügel 16 aufsetzen. Die untere Berandung kann mit einer weichen Dichtlippe versehen sein, was in Abdeckstellung dem Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit entgegenwirkt und in Offenstellung einen Schutz des Lacks gewährleistet.The pivot bearings 54, 64 or the corresponding devices in the cover element 60 are each near those ends of the housing head 52 or the cover element 60 arranged in the open position are facing each other. At the same time, the entire length of the Dimension pivot lever 70 so that it is shorter than the distance between the pivot bearings 64 in the cover member 60 and the front end wall 62 of the cover element 60. This enables that the covering element 60 covers the entire housing head in the covering position 52 including lock cylinder 10 with key slot 11 and covers the entire pivot lever 70. At the same time is in the open position the cover element 60 so far away from the housing head 52 that the entire locking cylinder 10 with key slot 11 is released, which maximizes the space for actuating the key 12. For aesthetic reasons, it is advantageous that the front end wall 62 of the cover element 60 opposite limitation with a To provide recess 61 through which the pivot lever 70 in reaches through the open position. As a result, the cover element 60 in the open position with at least most of its lower edge put on the door leaf 16. The lower border can be used with be provided with a soft sealing lip, which in the cover position prevents penetration counteracts moisture and in the open position Protection of the paint guaranteed.

In der gezeigten Ausführungsform sind die Schwenklager 64 im Inneren des Abdeckelementes 60 angebracht. Hierdurch wird die vollständige Abdeckung des Schwenkhebels in Abdecklage ermöglicht. Grundsätzlich wäre es jedoch auch denkbar, diese Schwenklager außen am Abdeckelement 60 anzubringen.In the embodiment shown, the pivot bearings 64 are inside of the cover member 60 attached. This will make the complete Covering the swivel lever in the cover position enables. in principle however, it would also be conceivable to mount these pivot bearings on the outside of the cover element 60 to attach.

Um ein unbeabsichtigtes Überführen des Abdeckelementes 60 von der Abdeck- in die Offenstellung, etwa durch Vibrationen während der Fahrt, zu verhindern, sind bei der gezeigten Ausführungsform Rastelemente vorgesehen. Eine Rastnut 53 umläuft den Gehäusekopf 52. In Abdeckstellung greift eine korrespondierende Rastwulst 63 in die Nut 53 ein. Andere Rastvorrichtungen, etwa separate Rastnasen an ausgewählten Stellen sind denkbar.To prevent accidental transfer of the cover element 60 from the Cover to the open position, e.g. due to vibrations while driving, To prevent, locking elements are in the embodiment shown intended. A locking groove 53 runs around the housing head 52. In the cover position engages a corresponding locking bead 63 in the groove 53. Other locking devices, such as separate locking lugs on selected Positions are conceivable.

Natürlich stellen die gezeigten Ausführungsformen lediglich vorteilhafte Beispiele für die erfindungsgemäße Abdeckvorrichtung dar, die jedoch weitere, von Anspruch 1 erfasste Ausführungsformen nicht ausschließen.
