Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a door opening / closing mechanism of a motor vehicle.
  • This mechanism is of the type comprising a handle pivotally mounted on a base around an axis substantially parallel to the plane of the door and substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the handle.
  • a handle generally comprises two branches protruding from its ends, including a pivoting branch pivotally connected to the base and an actuating branch acting on a transmission assembly, to achieve the unlocking of the door.
  • US 6,447,030, EP 1,286,009 or US 2002/059693 illustrate existing mechanisms.
  • motor vehicle door opening / closing mechanisms comprising means for locking the handle in the locked position of the door in the event of an accident, including inertia systems including flyweights.
  • the present invention aims to remedy these disadvantages.
  • Its main purpose is therefore to provide a handle mechanism of the aforementioned type, which allows a perfectly satisfactory locking of the handle.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a mechanism whose operation remains simple and natural for the user.
  • Yet another object of the invention is to provide a mechanism having a structure that remains relatively simple, with reliable operation.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a particularly simple mechanism to assemble.
  • Such a pivoting locking member normally held in the locking position by the elastic member, allows a permanent and reliable locking of the handle in the door lock position, as long as actuation of the control member is not possible. not realised.
  • This locking member retains a simple structure to achieve and has a reliable operation.
  • the locking member may engage with the actuating leg of the handle.
  • the latter comprises gripping zones with which the locking member cooperates in the locking position.
  • These gripping zones may in particular be cavities arranged in the actuating branch.
  • the operating member Before the first actuator of the mechanism, the operating member is in the non-cooperation position, which greatly facilitates the mounting of the handle on the base; the locking member is then actuated, which brings the operating member into the cooperation position and then maintains the operating member in this cooperation position.
  • the locking member may advantageously have a shape symmetrical with respect to its median plane, so that the same locking member can be used on both left door mechanisms and mechanisms for straight doors.
  • the control member is advantageously located on the handle. It then allows a simple and natural actuation of the locking member simultaneously with the actuation of the handle.
  • this control member is positioned so as to face the thumb of the user when the latter grasps the handle.
  • the mechanism may then comprise a transmission between this control member and the locking member comprising a sliding finger through the actuating leg that includes the handle.
  • the mechanism according to the invention thus has a relatively simple structure to achieve and having a reliable operation.
  • the control member may in particular be constituted by a button that can be pressed to actuate the locking member.
  • FIG. 1 represents a mechanism 1 for opening / closing a motor vehicle door, comprising a handle 2, a base 3, a locking member 4, a spring 5 and a transmission assembly 6.
  • the handle 2 comprises a body 10 on which is fixed a cover hubcap 11, a control button 12, a base 13 receiving the button 12 is a transmission part 14 located between this button and this base.
  • the body 10 comprises a pivoting branch 15 and a branch 16 for actuating the transmission assembly 6.
  • the pivoting branch 15 has a curved shape, allowing its engagement in a housing that comprises the base 3, and has a notch 17 at its free end, allowing its pivotal engagement on a rounded cross member that comprises the base 3 in this housing.
  • the actuating branch 16 is bent at its free end, and is intended to pass through an opening 20 (see Figure 3) arranged in the base 3, to cooperate with the locking member 4, on the one hand , and with the transmission assembly 6, on the other hand.
  • This branch 16 comprises a longitudinal bore 21, opening in its front face and in the face of the body 10 opposite the base 3.
  • the fixing of the cover 11 on the body 10 is achieved by means of snap-fastening projections 22 provided on the body 10 and complementary cavities provided on the cover 11.
  • This attachment makes it possible to trap the button 12, the base 13 and the transmission part 14 between the body 10 and the cover 11, thus allowing the assembly of these parts 12 to 14 on the handle 2.
  • the button 12 is pivotally mounted on the base 13.
  • the transmission part 14 comprises a finger 23 intended to be slidably engaged in the bore 21.
  • the button 12 when pressed, makes it possible to slide this finger 23 in this bore 21.
  • the base 3 is intended to be fixed to the door, against the sheet thereof. It has a central portion 25, a rear portion and a front portion.
  • the central portion 25 has a recessed concave shape, allowing the user's fingers to pass around the handle 2, and delimits a housing for receiving the locking member 4, the spring 5 and the transmission assembly 6 .
  • the locking member 4 comprises a central portion 26 shaped "C" shaped for, once mounted in the base 3, extend around the opening 20, and comprises a median pin 27, suitable to be engaged in the bore 21, facing the finger 23. This finger 23 can thus act on this lug 27 when the button 12 is pressed.
  • the ends of said central portion 26 are extended by journals 28 engaging in corresponding bearings arranged on the base 3.
  • the locking member 4 also comprises two hooks 29 projecting from one of its faces.
  • This locking member 4 has a symmetrical shape with respect to a median plane passing through the lug 27, so that the same part can be used for mechanisms 1 actuating left or right doors.
  • the spring 5 is engaged on one of the pins 28 and comprises a branch bearing against the member 4, on the one hand, and against the base 3, on the other hand.
  • This spring 5 is such that it normally holds the locking member 4 in a locking position shown in Figures 3, 4, 6 and 7; the locking member 4 may, however, by pressing the finger 23 against the pin 27, be brought into a pivoted unlocking position, shown in Figures 5, 8 and 9.
  • the transmission assembly 6 comprises a pivoting body 30, a spring 31 adapted to maintain normally this pivoting body 30 in a position corresponding to the locking of the door and an axis 32 engaging in corresponding bearings arranged on the base 3, the spring 31 and the body 30 being engaged on this axis 32.
  • the body 30 comprises a cage 35 for receiving the spring 31, a curved finger 36 intended to cooperate with the actuating branch 16, a radial arm 37 intended to be connected to an actuating cable (not shown) which controls the movement of the opening / closing latch of the door, and a pair of radial walls 38 having a rod 39.
  • the cage 35 is provided with a notch 40 through which an end branch of the spring 31 can be connected to the body 30, the other end branch of this spring being, after assembly, connected to the base 3.
  • the radial walls 38 and the rod 39 are, for their part, intended to cooperate with a hook 29 of the locking member 4.
  • the body 30 is slidably movable along the axis 32.
  • this body 30 can by virtue of the stretching of the spring 31, being placed in the position shown in FIG. 3, in which the finger 36 is in a position offset from the side with respect to the opening 20, and can be held in this position by the abutment of a wall 38 against the adjacent hook 29, against the return force of the spring 31; the branch 16 can then easily be engaged in the opening 20, the finger 36 not preventing this commitment (see Figure 4).
  • FIGS. 7 to 9 show the respective locking positions of the mechanism 1 (FIG. 7), the unlocking of this mechanism (FIG. 8) and the pivoting of the handle 2 effecting the pivoting of the body 30 (FIG. 9).
  • FIG. 10 shows a handle 2 very similar to that which has just been described, except that the branch 16 comprises, on the side of its free end and on either side of the bore 21, two cavities 41.
  • the locking member 4 is engaged on an axis 28 and is movable between a locking position, in which it is inside these cavities 41 (see Figure 12), and an unlocking position, in it is pivoted so as to be totally extracted from these cavities 41.
