Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for control of one or more mechanisms.
  • These devices are adapted to control, from a part, the lock of the door, which locks this last in closed position and, on the other hand, a lock security that is intended to keep the door open and prevent accidental closing.
  • the handle is adapted to act simultaneously on both mechanisms.
  • This technique also strongly penalizes the ergonomics of the handle for the control of one of the mechanisms.
  • This device comprises an actuating finger central, actuating two unlocking mechanisms different depending on whether the handle pivots in one direction or In another.
  • the object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages.
  • This device designated by the numerical reference 10, is intended to control two mechanisms (no represented), by means of 12 and 14 each constituted by a cable sheath 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 the latter in closed position, and a security lock now 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 are each provided with an end surface concave, 26 and 28, delimiting a pivot bearing for the handle 20, against which the latter comes take support.
  • the handle 20 in turn, has a zone 30 gripping center manually operable by the user and two end zones mutually opposed 32 and 34 each provided with an end nose 36 and 38 journalled in pivot bearings 26 and 28 and an arm 40 and 42 extending laterally in the door panel, that is to say perpendicular to the general axis of the gripping zone 30, towards the support 16.
  • An elastically deformable element constituted by an elastic rod 44 whose ends mutually opposites 46 and 48 are respectively anchored on the end arm 40 and 42 of the handle 20 and whose 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 fixing member 53 suitable.
  • the device 10 just described works as follows.
  • 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 actuation cable of one of the mechanisms to be controlled.
  • the pivoting the handle around the pivot bearing 26 and 28 located opposite one of the ends 32 and 34 of the handle causes traction, depending on the direction designated by the arrow F, on the cable carried by the other end of the handle and therefore an action on the corresponding mechanism.
  • the device that has just been described allows two different mechanisms to be manipulated means of the same handle by maneuvering the latter according to two specific directions of rotation, and this with a increased ergonomics when it is intended to equip a sliding door of a motor vehicle, because the direction of rotation of the handle for actuating one of the mechanisms of the door is adapted to the direction of movement of the latter.
  • This device designated by the numerical reference 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 Figures 1 to 4, climb of pivotally on the support 56 around the bearings of pivoting.
  • An elastically deformable rod 66 solicits the handle in rest position, ie in support 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, bearing on a stop, 76 and 78, carried by free end of a respective arm of the handle 64 of to be rotated by the latter, and a second end zone, 80 and 82, equipped of a toothed sector, such as 84.
  • These second zones end positions are positioned opposite each other so that they mesh one into the 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 maneuvering organ is constituted by a cable or a connecting rod, preferably a rod.
  • a helical spring 90 extends between the support 56 and the arm 86 so as to solicit the levers resting against 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 corresponding lever rotation 70. This last causes an action on the actuator 88 according to the direction indicated by the arrow F 'and a control of the mechanism to which the latter is connected.
  • This movement is transmitted through the intermediary of toothed sectors 84, to the other lever 70, which causes a consecutive traction on the operating member 88, according to the direction indicated by the arrow F ', and therefore a action on the mechanism to be controlled.
  • the spring 90 and the elastically deformable shaft 66 reposition together the handle in the rest position.
  • this embodiment makes it possible to improve considerably the ergonomics of the worsted because the pivoting direction of the handle is adapted to the direction of movement of the opening on which she went up.
