Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a door lock device for a motor vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a door lock device according to the preamble of claim 6.
  • a method and a door lock device of the aforementioned type are known from the European patent application EP 1 255 004 A2 known.
  • the handle unit of such a door lock device may include as electronic components, for example, sensor means or also transmitting and receiving means to enable the known under the term "keyless entry" electronic opening of the vehicle door.
  • the sensor means may be proximity switches that can detect the approach of the user's hand.
  • the vehicle-side connector is held in the mounting position in a cup-shaped, laterally open receptacle in the mounting position.
  • the introduction of the handle side mating partner in the vehicle-side mating partners is done by a straight-line displacement movement.
  • the handle unit in a direction that is located substantially in the plane of the finished complained door, moved in such a straight line, that on the one hand, the vehicle-side mating partners together with the handle-side mating partners the cup-shaped recess is pushed out laterally and on the other hand, a arranged in the region of the handle-side mating partner bearing eye is pushed onto a corresponding bearing journal of the bearing unit.
  • a pivoting handle unit to storage unit is made possible in the operating position achieved by the second straight-line displacement movement and, on the other hand, the electrical contact between the handle-side plug-in partner and the vehicle-side plug-in partner is maintained.
  • the vehicle-side plug-in partner may have been locked in the mounting position with the bearing unit, which is achieved by the displacement effected substantially in the door plane this locking position.
  • This second straight-line displacement of the handle unit to solve the locking of the vehicle-side mating partner proves to be relatively problematic, because by attack on the handle unit in the already partially assembled state in a shift in the door plane or parallel to the door level may not be enough or not controlled enough force can be applied to disengage the vehicle-side connector.
  • the handle-side plug-in partner is mounted pivotably on the handle unit about a first, handle-side pivot axis. Before carrying out the assembly of the handle side connector is additionally locked with a part of the handle unit. The assembly begins with the handle-side plug-in partner being pushed into the vehicle-side plug-in partner.
  • the problem underlying the present invention is to provide a method of the type mentioned, with the production of a door lock device of the type mentioned is easier to carry out. Furthermore, a door lock device is to be created, which can be produced by this method.
  • the outward movement of the vehicle-side mating partner takes place from the Monatageposition during the third process step by a pivoting movement of the handle unit.
  • a pivoting movement is easier to carry out during assembly.
  • parts of the handle unit such as a handle bar or the like can be used as a lever, so that easily larger forces on the vehicle-side plug-in partners can be exercised, which can be solved so easily from a possible latching with the storage unit.
  • the pivoting movement takes place about a pivot axis which is parallel to a pivot axis about which the handle unit for opening the door lock device relative to the vehicle-side bearing unit is pivotable.
  • the pivotal movement for mounting the door lock device may thus partially resemble the pivoting movement that the handle unit can make with respect to the bearing unit in the operating position for unlocking the door lock device.
  • the transfer of the vehicle-side mating partner from the mounting position into the operating position comprises a, preferably rectilinear, sliding movement.
  • the displacement movement complete the transfer of the vehicle-side mating partner from the mounting position to the operating position. Since no latching between the vehicle-side plug-in partner and the storage unit must be solved in this sliding movement, this straight-line displacement movement at the end of the assembly process is not critical.
  • the door lock device comprises a cable that establishes a connection between the vehicle-side plug-in partner and the on-board electronics of the motor vehicle, wherein the cable is stretched during the transfer of the vehicle-side mating partner from the mounting position to the operating position. A tensioned in the operating position cable is avoided that during unlocking the door lock device disturbing noises caused by a loose cable that could strike against other parts of the door.
  • the handle side connector is mounted on the handle unit such that by pivoting the handle unit during the manufacture of the door lock device pivoting out of the vehicle-side mating partner can be effected from the mounting position.
  • a door lock device can be provided that the vehicle-side connector is locked in the mounting position with the bearing unit. Due to the pivoting movement according to the invention, such a latching connection between the vehicle-side plug-in partner and the bearing unit does not cause any problems during assembly.
  • the bearing unit preferably comprises a recess which is open toward the handle unit and in which the vehicle-side plug-in partner is arranged. In this case, end-side lateral boundaries of the recess can at least in sections be funnel-shaped to assist the pivoting of handle unit to the storage unit.
  • the handle unit comprises a bearing lug on which the handle side mating partner is arranged, wherein during the pivoting movement of handle unit to bearing unit of the bearing unit facing side of the bearing lug is convex and / or rounded in order to support the pivoting movement. Due to the correspondingly rounded or convex design of the bearing projection and the at least partially slightly funnel-shaped design of the end boundaries of the recess, the pivoting movement is simplified.
  • a door lock device comprises a handle unit 1 and a vehicle-side storage unit 2.
  • the handle unit 1 and the storage unit 2 can be connected to each other by the inventive method in such a way that they are in an operating position, the most clearly Fig. 2d is apparent. In this operating position, the handle unit 1 can easily be pivoted relative to the bearing unit 2 for mechanically unlocking the door lock device.
  • the handle unit 1 comprises in its interior at least one electronic component.
  • This electronic component may comprise, for example, a sensor electronics and an antenna. With the sensor electronics, the approach of a human hand can be detected.
  • the antenna or via a transmitting and receiving unit can possibly be communicated with an electronic key that the user of the vehicle can carry with him.
  • the handle unit 1 comprises the actual handle bar 3, on which the user can engage for mechanical unlocking of the door lock device, as well as at its ends subsequent approaches, namely a bearing lug 4 and a Entriegelungsansatz 5.
  • the Entriegelungsansatz 5 can be known from the prior art engage in a corresponding recess 6 of the vehicle-side storage unit 2 and cause a mechanical unlocking of the door lock device upon actuation of the handle bar 3 by the user.
  • the handle unit 1 further comprises at the end facing away from the handle bar 3 end of the bearing lug 4 a handle side connector 7, which can be connected to a vehicle-side connector 8, which is arranged in a mounting position in a recess 9 of the bearing unit 2.
  • a handle side connector 7 which can be connected to a vehicle-side connector 8, which is arranged in a mounting position in a recess 9 of the bearing unit 2.
  • the bearing unit 2 comprises between the two aforementioned recesses 6, 9, a recessed grip 11, which serves to engage behind the handle bar 3 in the operating position of the door lock device according to the invention.
  • the vehicle-side connector 8 is locked with a holding part 12 of the bearing unit 2, which extends inside the vehicle from the recessed grip 11 under the recess 9.
  • This latching serving holding part 12 in this case has a taper on the end, the tip of which can engage in a tapered in the same direction recess 13 in the vehicle-side connector 8.
  • This arrangement prevents that in the connection of handle side connector 7 and vehicle-side connector 8 of the vehicle-side connector 8 in the connection direction according to the arrow 14 in Fig. 2a is pushed into the interior of the motor vehicle, in particular in the door cavity.
  • Fig. 1 . Fig. 2a . Fig. 3a and Fig. 4a show handle unit 1 and bearing unit 2 before making this connection.
  • Fig. 2a shows by means of the arrow 14, in which direction the bearing lug 4 of the handle unit 1 must be moved to make the connection.
  • Fig. 2b . Fig. 3b and Fig. 4b show the door lock device according to the invention produced by electrical and mechanical connection between handle-side connector 7 and vehicle-side connector 8.
  • FIG. 2d . Fig. 3d . Fig. 4d and Fig. 5 illustrated operating position of the door lock device, the cable 10, which was loosely loops at the beginning of the connection of handle unit 1 and bearing unit 2, stretched.
  • the operating position is after completion of the pivoting of the handle unit 1 relative to the bearing unit 2 by a preferably straight-line displacement movement in the direction of arrow 20 in Fig. 4d reached by handle unit 1 relative to storage unit 2.
