Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a closing device for closing a door, flap or hood or a cover, in particular a rear cover of a motor vehicle, with the features of the preamble of claim 1.
  • a passenger car usually has two or four side doors, a bonnet and a trunk lid or a rear door, each of which is equipped with a lock that interacts with a striker to close the respective flap or door or the respective lid Frame of the respective door or cover is attached.
  • one of the side doors or the tailgate can be equipped with a closing device, which makes it easier to close the respective door or tailgate into the closed position.
  • the user only has to swivel the boot lid or side door until the lock can interact with the striker. The remaining closing movement is then carried out automatically and automatically by the closing device.
  • Such a closing device is advantageously attached to a vehicle door (door, tailgate or trunk lid) in connection with an anti-auxiliary device of a vehicle door, so that this anti-auxiliary device swivels the door where far until the lock interacts with the locking bracket and then the Closing device pulls the door against the force of the deforming door seal into the closed position.
  • a closing device of the type mentioned has a striker bracket which carries a striker and is adjustable between a ready position with the striker extended and a closed position with the striker retracted. Furthermore, a drive device is provided which drives the striker bracket for adjustment between the ready position and the closed position.
  • the striker bracket has a projecting pin which is slidably adjustable in a guide groove. This guide groove is formed in a slide which is adjustably mounted transversely to the adjustment movement of the striker or the striker and forms part of the drive device.
  • the guide groove is shaped in such a way that the striker bracket, which is thus positively coupled via the pin, can be moved between the ready position and the closed position during an adjustment movement of the slide.
  • the carriage is driven in one direction by means of a cable and in the other direction by means of a return spring.
  • the adjustment movement of the striker or the striker is purely translational.
  • the striker bracket is bi-directionally adjustable on a bracket that is attached to the frame of the boot lid.
  • the carriage is also mounted on this console.
  • the cable for actuating the slide leads to a motor which is housed on a side wall in the trunk.
  • Another closing device of the type mentioned at the outset is known from DE 42 30 985 C2 and also comprises a striker bracket which has a striker and is adjustable between a ready position with the striker extended and a closed position with the striker retracted.
  • a drive device even with one Cable and a return spring, drives the striker to adjust between the ready position and the closed position.
  • the striker bracket is bi-directionally adjustable on a bracket.
  • the striker bracket is provided with a pin which engages in a guide link.
  • This guide link is formed in a guide lever which is pivotally mounted on the console.
  • the guide lever forms part of the anti-auxiliary device, the cable pull and the return spring acting on the guide lever.
  • the console is attached to the frame of the boot lid, i.e.
  • the guide lever is pivoted via the cable or the return spring, the striker bracket thus positively coupled via the guide link and the pin being adjusted accordingly between its closed position and its ready position.
  • the construction of the known closing devices is relatively complex, in particular the known closing devices require a relatively high assembly effort.
  • a particular disadvantage of the known closing devices is the fact that they each require a relatively large installation space, with the result that the vehicle equipped therewith requires a special design in the area of the frame, which is designed to fasten the console. In the event that such a closing device is only to be installed in the respective vehicle as special equipment, this results in relatively high costs, since the frame prepared for the attachment of a standard fixed locking latch is not suitable for attaching the closing device or its console.
  • the present invention is concerned with the problem of specifying an improved embodiment for a closing device of the type mentioned at the outset, which is, in particular, easier and cheaper to install and which allows better standardization, in particular with regard to the fixed closing bracket of the same vehicle models.
  • the invention is based on the general idea of using a striker holding section, which is formed on the frame of the door, flap or hood or of the cover and is prepared for fastening a standard fixed striker, for fastening the striker, for which purpose the striker is suitably attached to this striker.
  • half section is adapted.
  • this adaptation takes place in that the striker bracket is mounted on a bearing plate which is designed for attachment to a front side of the striker half section, while the anti-auxiliary device is designed for attachment to a rear side of the striker holding section. Due to the functional separation of the striker bracket from the anti-secondary device, the two components can be mounted on both sides of the striker bracket section, which in particular saves installation space.
  • the closing device By adapting the closing device intended as special equipment to the locking bracket holding section provided for standard equipment, it is possible to mount either the standard fixed locking bracket or the closing device of the special equipment on the locking bracket holding section during assembly. Since no changes are necessary on the body side, the closing device according to the invention can be implemented inexpensively on a vehicle.
  • the striker bracket can be rotatably mounted on the bearing plate and can be pivoted about a pivot axis between the ready position and the closed position.
  • the striker bracket has a drive arm which, with respect to the striker, projects from the striker bracket on a side of the striker bracket facing away from the pivot axis and away from the pivot axis.
  • the drive device is provided with a drive member which is fastened to a support plate and which interacts with an end section of the drive arm which is distant from the pivot axis for pivoting the striker bracket.
  • This support plate has a support arm which projects from the support plate in the direction of the pivot axis, an end section of the support arm remote from the drive member being provided for attachment to the rear side of the striker holding section.
  • This special kinematics enables the use of other, previously unusable drive elements, which makes the complete closing device very compact and, in particular, completely - apart from switches, cables, power supply - fastened to the striker holding section and in particular can be accommodated in the frame of the respective flap or hood or the respective cover is.
  • the striker holding section, the bearing plate, the striker bracket, the drive arm, the carrier plate and the support arm can each extend essentially parallel to a plane which extends perpendicular to the pivot axis.
  • This configuration enables a particularly flat construction of the closing device.
  • “Flat” here means a relatively small dimension in the direction of the pivot axis.
  • the closing device has a smaller dimension parallel to the pivot axis than transverse to it.
  • a further advantageous embodiment is characterized in that in the installed state the drive member, the support arm and the drive arm are arranged essentially along or close to a straight line. These measures produce a relatively elongated construction for the closing device. In other words, the dimension of the closing device in the direction of this straight line is considerably larger than transverse to it. With this construction, the closing device according to the invention can be accommodated particularly easily in a cavity in the frame of the respective cover or the respective door or hood.
