Description

Türbetätigungsaggregat für insbesondere Kraftfahrzeuge Door operating unit for motor vehicles in particular
Beschreibung :Description :
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Türbetätigungsaggregat für insbesondere Kraftfahrzeuge, mit einem Türgriff, insbesondere Türaußengriff, ferner mit einem Schließzylinder mit Abdeckung, und mit einer Basisplatte zur Aufnahme wenigstens des Schließzylinders, des Türgriffs sowie gegebenenfalls eines vom Türgriff beaufschlagbaren und mit einem Kraftfahrzeugturschloss verbundenen Auslösehebelwerkes .The invention relates to a door actuation unit for motor vehicles in particular, with a door handle, in particular outer door handle, further with a lock cylinder with cover, and with a base plate for receiving at least the lock cylinder, the door handle and optionally a release lever mechanism which can be acted upon by the door handle and connected to a motor vehicle door lock.
Derartige Türbetätigungsaggregate sind grundsätzlich aus der Praxis bekannt und werden im Übrigen beispielsweise in der DE 40 24 003 Cl oder der DE 42 29 930 Cl beschrieben. Vergleichbares gilt für die DE 1 869 287 A.Such door actuation units are generally known from practice and are otherwise described, for example, in DE 40 24 003 Cl or DE 42 29 930 Cl. The same applies to DE 1 869 287 A.
Mit Hilfe solcher Türbetätigungsaggregate lassen sich insbesondere Seitentüren an Kraftfahrzeugen öffnen und verschließen. Zu diesem Zweck ist der Türgriff bzw. Türaußengriff zumeist als Ziehgriff ausgeführt, welcher über das Auslösehebelwerk das hieran angeschlossene Kraftfahrzeugturschloss öffnet. Das gelingt natürlich nur dann, wenn sich der Schließzylinder nicht in verriegelter Position befindet. Andernfalls wird der Türaußengriff blockiert oder führt einen Leerhub mit Bezug zum Auslösehebelwerk aus .With the aid of such door actuation units, side doors on motor vehicles in particular can be opened and closed. For this purpose, the door handle or outer door handle is usually designed as a pull handle, which opens the motor vehicle door lock connected to it via the release lever mechanism. Of course, this only works if the locking cylinder is not in the locked position. Otherwise, the outer door handle is blocked or carries out an idle stroke with reference to the release lever mechanism.
Der Zusammenbau solcher Türbetätigungsaggregate gestaltet sich in der Regel schwierig, weil zumindest die vorbeschriebenen Bestandteile Türgriff, Schließzylinder, Abdeckung und Basisplatte in einer bestimmten Reihenfolge in einer Ausnehmung einer Kraftfahrzeugtür platziert und im Zuge ihrer gegenseitigen Montage hierin festgelegt werden müssen.The assembly of such door actuation units is generally difficult because at least the components described above, the door handle, locking cylinder, cover and base plate are placed in a certain order in a recess in a motor vehicle door and in In the course of their mutual assembly must be specified here.
So schlägt die DE 42 29 930 Cl beispielsweise ein Stützla- ger für einen Türgriff vor, welches unter Rückgriff auf zusätzliche Distanzmittel dafür sorgen soll, ohne Einbußen bei der Präzision eine schnelle Montage des Türgriffes zu ermöglichen. Das ist schon deshalb aufwendig, weil das Distanzmittel verschiebebeweglich an einem Hakenarm des Türgriffes angeordnet ist und unter Federbelastung gehalten werden muss .For example, DE 42 29 930 Cl proposes a support bearing for a door handle, which should take care of this by using additional spacing means, without allowing the door handle to be assembled quickly without sacrificing precision. This is expensive because the spacer is arranged on a hook arm of the door handle so that it can be moved and must be held under spring load.
Der Erfindung liegt das technische Problem zugrunde, einThe invention is based on the technical problem
Türbetätigungsaggregat des eingangs beschriebenen Aufbaus so weiter zu entwickeln, dass eine einfache, präzise und schnelle Montage gelingt.To further develop the door actuation unit of the construction described at the outset in such a way that simple, precise and quick installation is successful.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung bei einem gattungsgemäßen Türbetätigungsaggregat vor, dass der Schließzylinder, die Abdeckung und die Basisplatte mit angesetztem Türgriff als jeweilige Einzelteile in montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggregates mittels lediglich eines einzigen Befestigungsmittels gegeneinander fixiert sind. Dieses Befestigungsmittel kann durch einen Ausleger der Abdeckung und eine Aufnahmebohrung in der Basisplatte hindurchgeführt werden. Die eigentliche Verankerung erfolgt dann mit dem in der Basisplatte aufgenommenen Schließzylinder. Auf diese Weise werden bereits Abdeckung, Schließzylinder und Basisplatte miteinander vereinigt.To achieve this object, the invention proposes in a generic door actuation unit that the lock cylinder, the cover and the base plate with the door handle attached are fixed to each other as individual parts in the assembled position of the door actuation unit by means of only a single fastening means. This fastener can be passed through a cantilever of the cover and a receiving hole in the base plate. The actual anchoring then takes place with the locking cylinder accommodated in the base plate. In this way, cover, lock cylinder and base plate are already combined.
Dadurch, dass der Türgriff mit einem Hakenflansch ein Widerlager an der Basisplatte unter Bildung eines Drehlagers für den Türgriff hintergreift, lassen sich weiter bevorzugt die Abdeckung und der Türgriff in montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggregates gegeneinander verspannen. Denn nachdem zunächst Basisplatte, Schließzylinder und Abdeckung eine Einheit bilden, wird der Türgriff mit dem beschriebenen Hakenflansch an die Basisplatte bzw. dessen Widerlager angesetzt und mit der Basisplatte gleichsam vereinigt. Bei dieser Vereinigung hintergreift der Türgriff in der Regel mit einem Betätigungshaken das Auslδse- hebelwerk, so dass hierdurch automatisch Ziehbewegungen des Türgriffes begrenzt werden. Axial kann der Türgriff nicht ausweichen, weil die Abdeckung und das Widerlager bzw. Drehlager an der Basisplatte gleichsam eine Axialführung für den Türgriff bilden. Im Rahmen dieser Axialführung kann der Türgriff wie üblich um das Drehlager geschwenkt werden, ohne dass die Gefahr eines seitlichen oder axialen Auswei- chens besteht. Für einen Anschlag in Ruheposition des Türgriffs sorgen schließlich Anschlagstege an der Abdeckung.The fact that the door handle engages behind an abutment on the base plate with a hook flange to form a pivot bearing for the door handle can be further preferably clamp the cover and the door handle against each other in the assembled position of the door actuation unit. Because after the base plate, lock cylinder and cover first form a unit, the door handle with the hook flange described is attached to the base plate or its abutment and, as it were, combined with the base plate. With this combination, the door handle usually engages behind the release lever mechanism with an actuating hook, so that pulling movements of the door handle are thereby automatically limited. The door handle cannot move axially because the cover and the abutment or pivot bearing on the base plate form an axial guide for the door handle. As part of this axial guidance, the door handle can be swiveled around the pivot bearing as usual without the risk of lateral or axial deflection. Finally, stop bars on the cover ensure that the door handle is in the rest position.
Bei dem Befestigungsmittel handelt es sich bevorzugt um eine Befestigungsschraube, die üblicherweise in eine radiale Sackgewindebohrung im Schließzylinder eingreift. Als besonders vorteilhaft hat es sich erwiesen, die Abdeckung des Schließzylinders als im Wesentlichen quaderförmige Abdeckkappe mit den Schließzylinder aufnehmender Schließzy- linderbohrung auszuführen. Außerdem ist die Abdeckung bzw. Abdeckkappe zumeist mit einem türseitigen Ausleger ausgerüstet, der eine Durchgangsbohrung für das hierdurch hindurchgeführte und im dahinter liegenden Schließzylinder verankerte Befestigungsmittel trägt. Ferner finden sich regelmäßig die bereits angesprochenen Anschlagstege an derThe fastening means is preferably a fastening screw which usually engages in a radial blind threaded bore in the locking cylinder. It has proven to be particularly advantageous to design the cover of the lock cylinder as an essentially cuboid cover cap with the lock cylinder bore receiving the lock cylinder. In addition, the cover or cover cap is usually equipped with a door-side arm, which carries a through hole for the fastener guided through it and anchored in the locking cylinder behind it. Furthermore, the abutment webs already mentioned can be found on the
Abdeckung bzw. Abdeckkappe, die eine Ruheposition des Türgriffes definieren. Immer ist gewährleistet, dass die Abdeckung und der Türgriff in montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggregates gegeneinander verspannt sind bzw. axial nicht ausweichen können, so dass lediglich Drehbewegungen des Türgriffes um das beschriebene Drehlager aus Widerlager an der Basisplatte und Hakenflansch am Türgriff zugelassen werden. Diese Drehbewegungen bzw. Ziehbewegungen am Türgriff erfahren einerseits eine Begrenzung in ausgezogener Stellung durch das Auslösehebelwerk, an welchem der Betätigungshaken des Türgriffs angreift. Andererseits wird die nicht ausgezogene Ruheposition des Türgriffs mit Hilfe der Anschlagstege an der Abdeckkappe definiert .Cover or cover cap, which define a rest position of the door handle. It is always guaranteed that the cover and the door handle are clamped against each other in the assembled position of the door operating unit or cannot deflect axially, so that only rotary movements of the door handle around the described pivot bearing consisting of abutment on the base plate and hook flange on the door handle are permitted. These rotary movements or pulling movements on the door handle are limited on the one hand in the extended position by the release lever mechanism, on which the actuating hook of the door handle engages. On the other hand, the non-extended rest position of the door handle is defined using the stop bars on the cover cap.
Von besonderer Bedeutung ist, dass gleichsam sämtliche Ein- zelteile des beschriebenen Türbetätigungsaggregates, d. h. Schließzylinder, Abdeckung, Basisplatte und Türgriff in der Ausnehmung der zugehörigen Kraftfahrzeugtür platziert und vormontiert werden können, wobei die vorbeschriebenen Einzelteile in montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggrega- tes durch lediglich das einzige Befestigungsmittel zusammengehalten und in der Ausnehmung festgesetzt werden. Das führt nicht nur zu Einsparungen bei der Herstellung, sondern insbesondere im Zuge der Montage . Denn das regelmäßig als Befestigungsschraube ausgeführte Befestigungsmittel lässt sich ohne aufwendige Justagen schnell und einfach verankern. Selbstverständlich liegen auch andere Befestigungsmittel im Rahmen der Erfindung, so z. B. grundsätzlich (Dreh-) Bajonettverschlüsse, Rastverschlüsse oder dergleichen. Das heißt, es können simple Befestigungsmethoden zum Einsatz kommen, weil aufwendige Justage-/Anpassungsarbeiten beim Einsetzen des Türbetätigungsaggregates in die Ausnehmung der zugehörigen Kraftfahrzeugtür entfallen. Hierin sind die wesentlichen Vorteile zu sehen. Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand einer lediglich ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellenden Zeichnung näher erläutert; Es zeigen:It is of particular importance that, as it were, all of the individual parts of the door actuation unit described, that is to say the lock cylinder, cover, base plate and door handle, can be placed and preassembled in the recess in the associated motor vehicle door, the above-described individual parts being only in the assembled position of the door actuation unit Fasteners are held together and fixed in the recess. This not only leads to savings in production, but especially in the course of assembly. Because the fastener, which is regularly designed as a fastening screw, can be anchored quickly and easily without complex adjustments. Of course, other fasteners are within the scope of the invention, such. B. basically (rotary) bayonet locks, snap locks or the like. This means that simple fastening methods can be used because there is no need for complex adjustment / adjustment work when inserting the door actuation unit into the recess in the associated motor vehicle door. The main advantages can be seen here. The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of a drawing illustrating only one exemplary embodiment; Show it:
Fig. 1 die Einzelteile eines Türbetätigungsaggregates entsprechend der Erfindung vor dem Zusammenbau,1 shows the individual parts of a door actuation unit according to the invention before assembly,
Fig. 2 eine andere Ansicht der Teile gemäß Fig. 1 undFig. 2 is another view of the parts of FIG. 1 and
Fig. 3 das fast fertig montierte Türbetätigungsaggregat.Fig. 3 shows the almost completely assembled door operating unit.
In den Figuren ist ein Türbetätigungsaggregat für Kraftfahrzeuge dargestellt, welches in seinem grundsätzlichen Aufbau aus einem Türgriff 1, einem Schließzylinder 2 mit Abdeckung 3 und aus einer Basisplatte 4 zusammengesetzt ist. Man erkennt, dass sämtliche vorgenannten Einzelteile 1 bis 4 in eine zugehörige Ausnehmung 5 einer Kraftfahrzeugtür 6 eingesetzt und hierin montiert werden (vgl. Fig. 1 bis 3) .In the figures, a door actuation unit for motor vehicles is shown, which in its basic structure is composed of a door handle 1, a lock cylinder 2 with cover 3 and a base plate 4. It can be seen that all of the aforementioned individual parts 1 to 4 are inserted into an associated recess 5 of a motor vehicle door 6 and are mounted therein (cf. FIGS. 1 to 3).
Bei dem Türgriff 1 handelt es sich um einen Ziehgriff 1, welcher mit einem Hakenflansch 7 sowie einem Betätigungshaken 8 ausgerüstet ist. Der Hakenflansch 7 formt zusammen mit einem Widerlager 9 an der Basisplatte 4 ein Drehlager 7, 9. Zu diesem Zweck wird der Türgriff 1 bei an der Kraftfahrzeugtür 6 anliegender Basisplatte 4 mit seinem Hakenflansch 7 drehend und schiebend in das Widerlager 9 eingeführt, wie die Fig. 3 deutlich macht.The door handle 1 is a pull handle 1, which is equipped with a hook flange 7 and an actuating hook 8. The hook flange 7 forms, together with an abutment 9 on the base plate 4, a pivot bearing 7, 9. For this purpose, the door handle 1 is inserted with its hook flange 7 rotating and pushing into the abutment 9 when the base plate 4 is in contact with the motor vehicle door 6, as shown in FIG 3 makes it clear.
Sobald der Ziehgriff 1 vollständig montiert ist, hintergreift er einen Arm 10 eines um eine Achse 11 drehbaren Zweiarmhebels 10, 12 dessen anderer Arm 12 mit einem nicht dargestellten Kraftfahrzeugturschloss in Verbindung steht . Das kann über eine Betätigungsstange, einen Bowdenzug oder dergleichen erfolgen. Entsprechende Drehbewegungen des Zweiarmhebels 10, 12 um seine Achse 11 korrespondieren da- bei zu korrespondierenden Schlossöffnungen, wie dies grundsätzlich bekannt und nicht Gegenstand der Erfindung ist.As soon as the pull handle 1 is fully assembled, it engages behind an arm 10 of a two-arm lever 10, 12, the other arm 12 of which cannot be rotated about an axis 11 Motor vehicle door lock shown is connected. This can be done via an operating rod, a Bowden cable or the like. Corresponding rotary movements of the two-arm lever 10, 12 about its axis 11 correspond to corresponding lock openings, as is known in principle and is not the subject of the invention.
Wie nachfolgend noch näher erläutert wird, lassen sich der Schließzylinder 2, die Abdeckung 3, die Basisplatte 4 und der hieran angesetzte Türgriff 1 als jeweilige Einzelteile in montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggregates mittels lediglich eines einzigen Befestigungsmittels 13 gegeneinander fixieren und in der Ausnehmung 5 der Kraftfahrzeugtür 6 festlegen. Zu diesem Zweck ist das Befestigungsmittel 13 als Befestigungsschraube 13 ausgeführt, die in eine radiale Sackgewindebohrung 14 im Schließzylinder 2 eingreift.As will be explained in more detail below, the locking cylinder 2, the cover 3, the base plate 4 and the door handle 1 attached thereto can be fixed to one another as individual parts in the assembled position of the door actuation unit by means of only a single fastening means 13 and in the recess 5 of the motor vehicle door 6 establish. For this purpose, the fastening means 13 is designed as a fastening screw 13 which engages in a radial blind threaded bore 14 in the locking cylinder 2.
Dabei wird das Befestigungsmittel bzw. die Befestigungsschraube 13 durch einen Ausleger 15 mit korrespondierender Bohrung 16 der Abdeckung 3 hindurchgeführt. Gleiches gilt für eine Aufnahmebohrung 17 in der Basisplatte 4, in welche das Befestigungsmittel bzw. die Befestigungsschraube 13 nach Passieren der Bohrung 16 eintaucht. Mit anderen Worten tritt das Befestigungsmittel 3 nacheinander durch die Boh- rung 16 des Auslegers 15, dann die Aufnahmebohrung 17 der Basisplatte 4 schließlich zu seiner Verankerung in die Sackbohrung 14 des Schließzylinders 2 ein.The fastening means or the fastening screw 13 is passed through a bracket 15 with a corresponding bore 16 in the cover 3. The same applies to a receiving bore 17 in the base plate 4, into which the fastening means or the fastening screw 13 is immersed after passing through the bore 16. In other words, the fastening means 3 successively enters through the bore 16 of the arm 15, then the receiving bore 17 of the base plate 4 finally for anchoring it in the blind bore 14 of the locking cylinder 2.
Die Abdeckung 3 für den Schließzylinder 2 ist als im Wesentlichen quaderförmige Abdeckkappe mit den Schließzylinder 2 aufnehmender Schließzylinderbohrung 18 ausgeführt. Zusätzlich finden sich an der Abdeckung bzw. Abdeckkappe 3 der bereits angesprochene türseitige Ausleger 15 sowie zwei Anschlagstege 19 für den Türgriff bzw. Ziehgriff 1. Diese dienen als Anschläge für eine untere Kante 20 des Türgriffs 1 in dessen Ruheposition.The cover 3 for the lock cylinder 2 is designed as an essentially cuboid cover cap with the lock cylinder bore 18 receiving the lock cylinder 2. In addition, on the cover or cover cap 3, the door-side arm 15 and two already mentioned can be found Stop webs 19 for the door handle or pull handle 1. These serve as stops for a lower edge 20 of the door handle 1 in its rest position.
In montierter Stellung des Türbetätigungsaggregates sind die Abdeckung 3 und der Türgriff 1 gegeneinander verspannt bzw. axial festgelegt, weil einerseits das Drehlager 7, 9 andererseits die Abdeckung 3 mit einer Führungsfläche 21 für eine Seitenflanke 22 des Türgriffs 1 für den axialen Halt sorgen. Auf diese Weise bilden die Abdeckung 3 und das Widerlager 9 bzw. Drehlager 7, 9 eine Axialführung für den Türgriff 1.In the assembled position of the door operating unit, the cover 3 and the door handle 1 are braced against one another or axially fixed, because on the one hand the pivot bearing 7, 9 on the other hand provide the cover 3 with a guide surface 21 for a side flank 22 of the door handle 1 for the axial hold. In this way, the cover 3 and the abutment 9 or pivot bearing 7, 9 form an axial guide for the door handle 1.
Der Einbau wird wie folgt durchgeführt . Zunächst wird die Basisplatte 4 mit einem Zentriernocken 23 turinnenseitig an der Kraftfahrzeugtür 6 festgelegt. Der danach in eine Bohrung 24 eingeführte Schließzylinder 2 sorgt in Verbindung mit der Abdeckung 3 dann bereits dafür, dass die Basisplatte 4 nicht mehr von der Kraftfahrzeugtür 6 herunterfal- len kann. Denn ein Anschlagring 25 am Schließzylinder 2 bewirkt eine gewisse Verspannung bzw. Festlegung der Basisplatte 4 inklusive Schließzylinder 2 und Abdeckung 3 in der Ausnehmung 5 der Kraftfahrzeugtür 6.The installation is carried out as follows. First, the base plate 4 is fixed on the inside of the motor vehicle door 6 with a centering cam 23. The locking cylinder 2 then inserted into a bore 24 in connection with the cover 3 already ensures that the base plate 4 can no longer fall off the motor vehicle door 6. This is because a stop ring 25 on the locking cylinder 2 causes a certain tensioning or fixing of the base plate 4 including the locking cylinder 2 and cover 3 in the recess 5 of the motor vehicle door 6.
Wenn nun noch entsprechend der Darstellung in Fig. 3 der Türgriff 1 mit seinem Hakenflansch 7 das Widerlager 9 der Basisplatte 4 hintergreift, wird dieser Zustand weiter verstärkt . Hierfür sorgen auch die dann zusammen wirkenden Flächen bzw. Flanken 21, 22.If the door handle 1 with its hook flange 7 engages behind the abutment 9 of the base plate 4 as shown in FIG. 3, this state is further intensified. The surfaces or flanks 21, 22 then acting together also ensure this.
Sobald der Türgriff 1 in seine Ruhestellung gedrückt wird, hintergreift er mit seinem Betätigungshaken 8 den Arm 10 des Zweiarmhebels 10, 12, so dass dann die gewünschte Ver- bindung mit dem nicht dargestellten Kraftfahrzeugturschloss sichergestellt ist.
