Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for controlling a module forming a lock mechanism.
  • a device for controlling a module forming a lock mechanism is already known in the prior art, of the type comprising a Bowden type cable comprising a cable, provided with two ends, respectively proximal and distal, housed in a sheath provided with two proximal and distal ends respectively immobilized by two proximal and distal stop members.
  • This type of control device is used in particular to control a lock for a motor vehicle window, in particular for the side door of the vehicle.
  • the proximal end of the cable is connected to a control lever, also called a pallet, mounted articulated on the leaf so that it can be actuated from inside the vehicle.
  • the distal end of the cable is connected to a control member of the module forming a lock mechanism.
  • This module provided with a bolt, is arranged on the opening so that, when the opening is in the closed position, the bolt cooperates with a keeper carried by a corresponding frame.
  • the proximal end of the sheath is immobilized relative to the proximal stop member. It is known to fix the proximal end of the sheath on the proximal stop member by an ultrasonic welding process.
  • the sheath is generally formed by a wire, in particular a metal wire, wound in a helix with contiguous turns.
  • This sheath structure does not always make it possible to obtain a quality ultrasonic weld having in particular good resistance of the sheath to tearing. Indeed, ultrasound in some cases causes a deformation of the propeller forming the sheath of the cable.
  • the object of the invention is to immobilize the end of a sheath on a corresponding stop member with the aid of fastening means effectively resistant to tearing and well suited to a helical structure of the sheath.
  • the subject of the invention is a device for controlling a module forming a lock mechanism, of the aforementioned type, characterized in that at least one of the ends of the sheath is connected to the corresponding stop member by collage.
  • Bonding eliminates undesirable effects linked to ultrasound such as the deformation of the wire wound into the helix forming the cable sheath.
  • the bonding thus makes it possible to fix the sheath on a stop member in an effective and resistant manner.
  • the glued stop member is provided with a part forming an interlocking sleeve of the glued end of the sheath, the part forming a sleeve having an orifice substantially transverse to the direction of interlocking of the glued end of the sheath, this orifice forming a receptacle for receiving a mass of adhesive in contact with the sheath and the glued stop member;
  • the part forming the sleeve of the glued stop member is extended by a shell, provided with hooking means on a fixed support;
  • the glued end of the sheath is its proximal end
  • the proximal end of the cable is provided with an attachment mass for this cable, the shell forming a housing for this attachment mass;
  • the sheath is formed by at least one wire, in particular metallic, wound in a helix with contiguous turns;
  • the module forming the control mechanism is arranged in an opening of a motor vehicle, in particular a side door of the vehicle.
  • FIG. 1 is a general view of a module forming a lock mechanism provided a control device according to the invention
  • FIG. 1 is a detail view of the circled part 2 of Figure 1.
  • FIG. 1 shows a module 10 forming a lock mechanism controlled by means of a device 12 according to the invention.
  • the module 10 is arranged in an opening of a motor vehicle, more particularly a side door of this vehicle.
  • the control device 12 is intended to connect a control member of the module 10 with a conventional control lever (not shown), also called a pallet, mounted articulated on the opening so as to be able to be actuated from inside the vehicle.
  • a conventional control lever also called a pallet
  • the control device 12 comprises a Bowden type cable which, conventionally, comprises a cable proper, slidably mounted in a sheath.
  • this Bowden cable comprises a cable 14 provided with two ends respectively proximal and distal. In the figures, only the proximal end 14P of the cable is shown. Conventionally, the proximal end 14P of the cable is provided with a mass 16 for hooking this cable to a member kinematically linked to the control lever. This mass 16 is usually made of a metal alloy commonly designated by the name "Zamak".
  • the cable 14 is housed in a sheath 18 provided with two ends respectively proximal 18P and distal 18D.
  • the sheath 18 is formed by at least one wire, preferably metallic, wound in a helix with contiguous turns. .
  • the distal end 18D of the sheath is immobilized by fixing in a manner known per se in a distal stop member 20D carried by the module 10.
  • the proximal end 18P of the sheath is immobilized by fixing in a proximal stop member 20P shown in more detail in FIG. 2.
  • a proximal stop member 20P shown in more detail in FIG. 2.
  • at least one of the ends 18P, 18D of the sheath, namely the the proximal end 18P in the example described, is bonded to the corresponding stop member, namely the proximal stop member 20P in the example described.
  • the proximal stop member 20P (glued) is provided with a part 22 forming a sleeve for fitting the proximal end 18P (glued) of the sheath.
  • This part 22 is extended by a shell 24, provided with conventional attachment means on a fixed support (not shown) integral with the opening.
  • These hooking means comprise for example two snap tabs 26.
  • the shell 24 forms a housing for the attachment mass 16.
  • the part 22 forming the sleeve has an orifice 28 substantially transverse to the direction of fitting of the proximal end 18P of the sheath.
  • This orifice 28, relatively large, forms a receptacle for receiving a mass of adhesive 30 in contact with the proximal end 18P of the sheath and the proximal stop member 20P. Fixing the proximal end 18P of the sheath on the proximal stop member 20P is therefore very simple to carry out.
  • the length of the proximal end 14P of the cable protruding outside the sheath 18 is adjusted in a manner known per se, through the proximal end 18P thereof, so as to make up for different clearances functional of the module 10 and of the control device 12. Then, the proximal end 18P of the sheath is fixed to the proximal stop member 20P by filling the orifice 28 with a mass of adhesive 30.
  • a notch can be formed on the proximal end 18P of the sheath in order to optimize the attachment of the mass of adhesive.
  • proximal end 18P of the sheath fitted into the part 22 forming a sleeve, constitutes a bottom of the receptacle for receiving the adhesive mass 30.
  • the adhesive mass 30 has been placed in the orifice 28, it is not necessary to close it.
  • edges of the proximal stop member 20P delimiting the orifice 28 may include reliefs, protruding or recessed, optimizing the adhesion of the mass of adhesive 30.
