Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for control of one or more mechanisms.
  • It relates in particular to a device for control of one or more opening mechanisms of motor vehicle.
  • mechanism control devices of the type comprising a support and a control handle mounted so swivel on the support and manually operable by a user to operate the or each mechanism to be controlled.
  • these devices when they are intended to equip sliding doors of a motor vehicle, these devices must be suitable for controlling, from a hand, the door lock, which locks this last in the closed position and, on the other hand, a latch which is intended to keep the door open and prevent accidental closing.
  • the handle is adapted to act simultaneously on both mechanisms.
  • the object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages.
  • This device designated by the reference numeral general 10, is intended to control two mechanisms (not represented), by means actuators 12 and 14 each consisting of a cable sheathed extending between the device and the mechanism order.
  • the device is intended to control two mechanisms of a sliding door of a motor vehicle, namely a door lock, now this one in closed position, and a safety lock holding the door in open position.
  • the support 16 is basically placed inside the panel of the door. However, it has two legs 22 and 24 which protrude outward from the door and which each have an end surface concave, 26 and 28, delimiting a pivot bearing for handle 20, against which the latter comes take support.
  • the handle 20 meanwhile, has a zone middle 30 of gripping manually actuated by the user and two end zones mutually opposite 32 and 34 each provided with an end spout 36 and 38 swiveling in the pivot bearings 26 and 28 and an arm 40 and 42 extending laterally in the door panel, i.e. perpendicular to the general axis of the grip zone 30, towards the support 16.
  • An elastically deformable element consisting of an elastic rod 44 whose ends mutually opposite 46 and 48 are respectively anchored on the end arms 40 and 42 of the handle 20 and the middle part is mounted on a stop 50 carried by the support 16, urges the handle 20 to bear against the bearings.
  • each arm 40 and 42 is provided with a point anchor, such as 52, securing the cable sheathed 12, 14 on the handle, the sheath being, as for it, fixed relative to the support 16 by means of a appropriate fixing member 53.
  • the device 10 which has just been described operates in the following manner.
  • the handle has two pivot axes each located in the vicinity of one of the mutually opposite ends of the handle.
  • these ends are each provided with a cable for actuating one of the mechanisms to be controlled.
  • the device which has just been described allows two different mechanisms to be operated using the same handle by operating the latter in two specific directions of pivoting, and this with a improved ergonomics insofar as, when it is intended to equip a sliding door of a motor vehicle, it is possible to adapt the pivoting direction of the handle for operating one of the mechanisms of the door in the direction of movement of the latter.
  • This device designated by the reference numeral general 54, is intended for the control of a single mechanism.
  • a support 56 mounted on a sheet 58 of a vehicle door and provided with two spouts 60 and 62 projecting delimiting pivot bearings, and a handle 64, similar to the handle described previously with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, rise of pivotally on the support 56 around the bearings of pivoting.
  • An elastically deformable rod 66 stresses the handle in rest position, i.e. resting against the bearings.
  • the device 54 is provided with two levers 68 and 70 each rotatably mounted on the support 56 and provided each of a first end zone, respectively 72 and 74, supported on a stop, 76 and 78, carried by free end of a respective arm of the handle 64 of so as to be rotated by the latter, and a second end zone, 80 and 82, equipped a toothed sector, such as 84.
  • These second zones ends are positioned opposite each other so that they mesh with each other.
  • a lever arm 86, on which is anchored a operating member 88 of the mechanism to be controlled extends laterally from the second end of one levers.
  • this operating member is consisting of a cable or a connecting rod, preferably a rod.
  • a helical spring 90 extends between the support 56 and arm 86 so as to stress the levers bearing against the stops 76 and 78.
  • the pivoting of the handle 64 in a first direction causes displacement consecutive arm carried by the opposite end of the handle and a rotation of the corresponding lever 70.
  • This the latter causes an action on the operating member 88 in the direction designated by arrow F 'and one of which control of the mechanism to which the latter is connected.
  • This movement is transmitted, through toothed sectors 84, to the other lever 70, which causes consecutive traction on the operating member 88, according to the direction designated by the arrow F ', and therefore a action on the mechanism to be controlled.
  • the spring 90 and the elastically deformable rod 66 reposition jointly the handle in the rest position.
  • this embodiment improves considerably the ergonomics of the handle, in the as the direction of pivoting of the handle can be adapted to the direction of movement of the opening on which she went up.
