Definitions

  • the invention relates to a door locking device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the invention relates to a door locking device that can be temporarily connected to a hinge to keep the motor vehicle door connected by the hinge to a body in preferred opening angles for painting.
  • DE 34 18 891 C2 shows a door locking device for a motor vehicle hinge, in which a latching device for determining a temporarily preferred opening position corresponding to a Lackier ein is formed by a wart-shaped embossment of a bent free end of a hinged to the hinge pin of the cantilevered support arm, wherein the embossment in a Can engage recess in the end face of the other hinge half.
  • the disadvantage here is in particular that for canceling the temporarily preferred opening position of the hinge, the holder arm has to be broken away, whereby a comparatively expensive part in the production must be canceled by cumbersome manipulation by hand. Further, a part of the holder arm remains on the hinge and thus increases the height of the hinge disadvantageously.
  • the door locking device can not be used again in another hinge. Since the embossment penetrates into the recess due to the residual stress of the holder arm, a pivoting of the door is not sufficient to move the door, but the embossment must first be disengaged.
  • DE 101 56 300 A1 describes a door locking device for a hinge in which a coupled to the hinge pin disc is provided at its periphery with recesses having a cross-sectional shape of a in the corresponding hinge half inserted retaining pin are formed, which engages due to the rotational movement of the hinge of the pin in different recesses and thus defines preferred holding positions of the hinge. After completion of the painting, the retaining pin can be removed, and the Lackier einen be repealed.
  • a disadvantage of this door locking device is in particular that the holding forces are low and in particular at excessive stress of a motor vehicle door there is a risk that the door rises altogether, which would be particularly disadvantageous in through-varnishing due to the collision with an adjacent vehicle.
  • a door locking device which has a arranged on a first hinge part and a holder arranged on the second hinge part, designed as a pin guide member, which is insertable into an opening of the holder.
  • the holder must be slipped over the pin, the opening only defines a preferred holding position. If the door should be closed again, the holder has to be cumbersome again bent over the pin, which in particular with multiple back and forth pivoting requires a complex handling.
  • DE 299 14 042 U1 shows a hinge of two hinge parts, which are hinged together via a first pin and a second pin.
  • a slot is arranged concentrically around the axis of the pin, which is penetrated by an upper end of a guide member designed as a journal, while the lower end of the pin is fixed in a recess of the second hinge part , Further, the pin and the first pin are secured to a common support plate which divides the pin and the first pin into two sections and which is used in the assembly of the hinge between the adjacent end faces of the first hinge part and the second hinge part.
  • the slot itself has no detent position for the pin.
  • a multi-part construction as a door locking device consisting of a first plate body with slot, another plate body with a one-sided guide track with inwardly facing locking marks and two forks with outwardly facing locking markers pivotally mounted on an axis stub of the first plate body stored and biased by a spring in the direction of the locking marks exists.
  • the catch markings of the guide track of the further plate body or the catch markings of the forks define preferred opening angle of the hinge, for which purpose associated with each level of Raustausnemache on the pin mounted washers.
  • US 4,953,259 describes a pivotal moment brake for an armrest hingedly hinged to a support, the brake having a support of a compliant polymer with a slot and inserted in a region between the support and the axis of the armrest.
  • the slot is provided with an upstanding edge.
  • a recess corresponding to the slot of the holder is provided, which is as well as the slot penetrated by a trained as a screw guide element, which is screwed into one of the armrest associated hole.
  • a braking torque is achieved or at least defined by holding stops provided in the slot preferred holding positions.
  • US 6,332,243 B1 describes a hinge with a first hinge part and a second hinge part, which are hingedly connected to each other via two hinge stub, wherein on the hinge stubs each between the two hinge parts a bridge part is mounted, which is festschraubbar to the second hinge part.
  • the bridge part has a curved portion which is engageable with the periphery of a pin detachably arranged on the first hinge part, to ensure a provisional holding position, in particular during the painting. To painting the pin can be removed, and the hinge can be operated in a known manner.
  • the door locking device allows the temporary connection with a hinge in order to be able to provisionally lock the hinge in one or more locking positions, in particular for the Painting and drying of vehicle doors.
  • the handling of automated spray systems that work in the manner of a robot largely possible without manual operation, since the guide member allows within the slot without manual operation of the door locking different opening positions of the vehicle door.
  • the slot is expediently designed to be closed at both ends, so that the slot with a closed circumference limits the maximum pivoting angle of the vehicle door. This effectively prevents the door from leaving an open position during painting and striking against an adjacent door.
  • the slot has at least one cross-sectional constriction, on the one hand a preferred detent position is defined for the guide member, at two cross-sectional constrictions corresponding to three locking positions, etc.
  • the slot in the region of the cross-sectional constriction when passing the guide member is slightly widened and thus from a holding position to a pass another stop position.
  • the guide member preferably has a rounded outer contour, in particular the shape of a cylindrical pin, at least in the region of that portion which passes through the opening of the holder on.
  • the oblong hole is essentially delimited by ribs extending concentrically with respect to the hinge axis, which have projections pointing into the oblong hole, which-preferably in pairs-define the cross-sectional constrictions.
  • the holder is detachably attachable to the first hinge part, wherein the first hinge part is preferably the hinge part associated with the vehicle door.
  • the hinge pin of the hinge is then carried along expediently;
  • the hinge pin can also be accommodated in the hinge part associated with the vehicle door with running play, for example by means of a bushing.
  • the course of the slot is defined by the distance of the hinge axis to the guide member, wherein the holder is displaced in a pivoting movement about the hinge axis with the first hinge part, so that overall the slot is formed substantially concentric. It is possible that in certain embodiments, the hinge axis, which extends in the first hinge part and has an offset to the axis in the second hinge part, the pivot axis of the hinge is the pivot axis defined in the second hinge part. In this case, the course of the slot is adjusted accordingly.
  • the holder expediently has a further opening for receiving a hinge pin defining the hinge axis, in which case a clearance may be provided in the event that riveting or a head of the hinge pin is provided in the area of the commercial area to which the holder is attached.
  • the fixing of the holder takes place positively via connecting means with the first hinge part preferably via a folded-down portion of the holder, which is folded into an undercut of the first hinge part and held there in a form-fitting manner.
  • an opening is formed between the slot and the further opening for receiving the hinge pin, which has a closed circumference.
  • the aperture defines in the holder an additional elasticity, without the torsional stiffness of the holder is thereby sustainably reduced. This makes it possible in particular that an extending between the opening and the slot rib a deformation and Has alternate space that allows deformation when passing through the guide member.
  • the opening is approximated on the one hand to the contour of the slot and on the other hand to the contour of the further opening.
  • the holder is formed as a stamped part of sheet metal, whereby a technologically simple, cost-effective production is possible.
  • stampings made of sheet metal can produce relatively high holding torques, which are required to keep the door locking device in a preferred holding position even under stress due to the dead weight of the vehicle door.
  • the trained as a pin guide element can be selected in a suitable material pairing, wherein in a preferred embodiment, the pin is made of plastic and istscherrt after use, is sunk in the bore of the second hinge half in which it is received, or is formed with a gripping extension, which allows the drawing of the pin without clamping tool.
  • the door locking device is expediently used to establish a motor vehicle door in a preset opening position during painting, where a possible automated handling due to the unpleasant working conditions is particularly important.
  • the door locking device enables both the secure holding of the vehicle door in different opening angles as well as the associated with little effort back and forth pivoting the vehicle door, starting from a holding position in a further holding position.
  • the relocation is carried out in a particularly simple manner by bumping the vehicle door with the help of their own weight, without the need for manual input or Ausfädelvorées.
  • the holder is in the form of a flat sheet metal part in the form of an angular segment, wherein in particular in a symmetrical Design is used by the concentric arrangement of the slot of the holder in the same way for a left as for a right hinge.
  • the two essential parts of the door locking device, holder and guide member can be easily removed after painting and - either after repainting of the parts - are used again for provisionally fixing a hinge.
  • the door locking device is so inexpensive that it is cheaper to manufacture, as it would be the paint removal of the parts.
  • Fig. 1 shows a generally designated 1 motor vehicle door hinge having a first hinge part 2, which is associated with a dash-dotted line indicated vehicle door 3 and a second hinge part 4, which is associated with a dash-dotted lines indicated door bracket or a door spar 5.
  • the two hinge parts 2, 4 are pivotally connected to one another by a hinge pin 6, which passes through one of the two hinge parts 2, 4 with running clearance and is non-rotatably inserted in the other of the two hinge parts 2, 4.
  • the hinge 1 is provided with a door locking device, which is designated overall by 10.
  • the door locking device 10 comprises a first hinge part 2 associated with the holder 11 and the second hinge part 4 associated guide member 12.
  • the guide member is a cylindrical pin which is inserted in a first hinge part 2 facing commercial surface 4a of the second hinge part 4 in a bore and the Height is dimensioned such that the pin 12 passes through the holder 11 in the region of a slot 13.
  • the pin 12 is formed as a metal cylinder, and can be separated from a bar material. It is understood that other embodiments of a guide member, for example with polygonal circumference or only in the region of the slot 13 cylindrically shaped guide member is possible.
  • the holder 13 is made as a stamped part of a sheet metal metal of about 2 mm thickness and is substantially flat.
  • the holder 11 has a further, circular opening 14 which is provided for the passage of the hinge pin 6, and an opening 15 which is disposed between the further opening 14 and the slot 13 and a further opening 14 facing rib 16 of the Long hole 13 limited.
  • the opening is adapted on the one hand geometrically to the slot 13 and on the other hand to the circular further opening 14.
  • the oblong hole 13 has a shape running concentrically in accordance with a circular segment section 13a, wherein the circular section is formed concentrically to an axis 6a of the hinge pin 6 or the further opening 14.
  • the two planes 6b and 6c, which are perpendicular to the hinge axis 6a, are indicated by dashed lines.
  • the slot 13 has three locking positions 21, 22, 23, wherein the holding position 21 of an open position of the door by 5 degrees, the position 22 of an opening position of the door by about 40 degrees and the opening position 23 corresponds to an open position of about 80 degrees.
  • the circumference of the holding positions 21 to 23 substantially corresponds to the outer circumference of the Pins 12, so that in the holding positions is essentially given a positive reception.
  • the further rib 17 has two relatively flat projections, which are denoted by 17a, 17b, while the rib 16 has two distinct projections 16a, 16b directed towards the projections 17a, 17b. It can be seen that the diameter of the portion of the pin 12, which passes through the slot 13 and which is denoted by d 12 , is greater than the maximum cross-sectional constriction, which is denoted by d 13 in Fig. 1.
  • the holder 11 has the overall shape of an angular segment, wherein a foldable region 18 protrudes beyond the segment, which can be folded off and which enables a positive connection with the first hinge part 2, together with the further opening 14.
  • the guide member 12 is fixed in a bore of the second hinge part 4, and the holder 11 is fixed according to the position shown in Fig. 1 on the first hinge part 2 and on the hinge pin 6.
  • the guide member 12 passes through the slot 13 at a first, almost closed position 21 of the door.
  • the holder 11 is entrained, wherein the slot 13 is displaced by widening the cross-sectional constrictions 17a, 16a and 17b, 16b in an approximately 80 degrees open angular position corresponding to the holding position 23.
  • the holding position 22 is not necessarily required for the painting process, and therefore with respect to the holding angle of about 40 ° may have a game. During the Painting, drying, etc. are required no more than 10 to 15 load cycles, which are easily endured by the holder 11.
  • the provisional opening position caused by the door locking device 10 is no longer needed, so that the holder 11 and the guide member 12 are separated from the hinge 1.
  • a particular advantage of the door locking device 10 is thus that the elasticity of the door locking device or the holder 11 is used to determine the door 3.
  • Another particular advantage is that the mechanical stress takes place substantially in the horizontal plane of the flat holder 11 and thus radially to the hinge axis 6a. Furthermore, several cycles for opening and closing the door locking device can be moved without manual intervention.
  • the above embodiment has been illustrated with reference to a double-folded portion 18 which penetrates into a corresponding section of the first hinge part 2 and fixes the holder 11 with respect to the first hinge part 2. It is understood that alternatively, the holder 11 can be releasably secured to the first hinge part 2 in another way.
