Definitions

  • the invention relates to a locking device for a motor vehicle door lock, with an actuating unit, for. B. acted upon by a key lock cylinder, and arranged in the housing of the motor vehicle door lock actuating and / or locking lever, on which a transmission element between the operating unit and motor vehicle door lock works.
  • the actuating and / or locking lever is usually part of an actuating chain and / or locking chain in order to represent different functional states of the motor vehicle door lock. In the case of a locking lever, this is at least a locking function and unlocking function.
  • a locking lever is used, this is formed regularly and not restrictive as an external locking lever, thus represents a locking lever, with the aid of a locking mechanism inside the motor vehicle door lock can be converted from the outside into its locking function state or its unlocking function state.
  • the first-mentioned functional state corresponds, as usual, to the fact that regularly an outside door handle and a door inner handle go empty or only a release must be made before the locking mechanism can be opened.
  • a locking and unlocking request is usually forwarded by a lock cylinder including a key as an actuating unit with the interposition of the transmission element to the locking lever or external locking lever.
  • the transmission element can in principle have any configuration, for example be designed as a Bowden cable, linkage, etc.
  • the transmission element engages in the form of a connecting shaft or connecting rod in a Wegnuss or lock nut, which is rotatably mounted in the housing of the motor vehicle door lock and transmits their rotational movements into the interior on a connected actuating and / or locking lever.
  • the lock nut is designed to be open in comparison with the housing for the motor vehicle door lock, so that the transmission element can engage with a paddle, for example, as explained in further relevant prior art in accordance with EP 1 004 729 A1. Comparably, EP 1 262 616 A2 precedes. To mention is also still the DE 42 22 798 C2.
  • the hitherto known state of the art has basically proven itself as far as the connection of the actuation and / or locking lever located in the housing to the transmission element connected from the outside is concerned.
  • the lock nut usually ensures a sealed transmission of rotational movements of the paddle to the relevant actuating and / or locking lever, as described in detail in EP 0 364 936 B2, DE 198 23 188 C2 or DE 36 28 376 A1 is explained.
  • the connecting shaft usually realized at this point is only capable of being able to compensate for slight differences in height between the one hand of the actuating unit or the lock cylinder and on the other hand the housing or the motor vehicle door lock as a whole. This circumstance means that every application requires special built-in components.
  • EP 1 004 729 A1 proposes a cable drive for distance bridging between the lock cylinder and a support member receiving the paddle. - This is again complicated and requires special installation and transmission parts for each application.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of further developing a generic locking device for a motor vehicle door lock so that any height differences between the one hand of the operating unit and the other hand, the motor vehicle door lock can be bridged in a simple and cost-effective manner.
  • a generic locking device in the invention is characterized in that the actuating and / or locking lever from the housing of the Has motor vehicle door lock led out coupling element for direct connection with the transmission element. That is, the coupling element is part of the actuating and / or locking lever, wherein actuating and / or locking lever and coupling element advantageous - but not mandatory - are integrally formed.
  • the aggregate of actuating and / or locking lever and coupling element usually has a lever flange and a coupling flange as a coupling element, wherein the flanges are interconnected by an axle or shaft. That is, the actuating and / or locking lever and the coupling element are rotatably mounted on this common axis.
  • the actuating and / or locking lever and the coupling element are rotatably mounted on this common axis.
  • the lever flange are connected within the housing for the motor vehicle door lock to the axle.
  • the housing for the motor vehicle door lock can be sealed easily and inexpensively, with comparable advantages as in the known transmission element / locknut combination can be claimed. That is, the lever in question is dust and waterproof connected to the transmission element.
  • the special actuating and / or locking lever including coupling element ensures an acoustic decoupling of the one hand operating unit and the other hand motor vehicle door lock or acted upon by the actuating and / or locking lever lock elements in the interior of the associated housing.
  • the transmission element or the outer locking bar is formed variable in length to each other depending on the topological position of one hand, motor vehicle door lock and the other operating unit. That is, it is usually a variable-length connecting rod, in particular outer locking bar used. Equally well can be used on modular exchangeable connecting rods or transmission elements to adapt to the particular installation situation.
  • lever flange and the coupling flange can be connected to each other in a predetermined axial overlap in a vertical axial projection to the axis connecting them.
  • pivotal movements in-phase and substantially in consideration of a comparable pivot angle transmitted directly to the lever flange, which in turn can be connected to a locking lever mechanism or a locking element, for example, a central locking lever in the desired positions "locked” or “unlocked “convicted.
  • lever flange and central locking lever can be coupled directly to each other or even form a component under certain circumstances.
  • the coupling element or the coupling flange is usually arranged in a pivoting movements limiting receptacle of the lock housing. It is thereby achieved that only one head-side region of the coupling element protrudes relative to the lock housing. This head-side region of the coupling element or the coupling flange usually has a connection eye for connection of the transmission element.
  • the receptacle ensures that the coupling element can be reciprocated only within a limited by the receptacle pivoting range.
  • Said receptacle is sealed from the interior of the housing, because only the axis is guided through an opening of the housing in the receptacle.
  • To seal the axis with respect to the respective opening serves the already mentioned shaft seal or the multiple shaft seals.
  • the housing as such may be formed in two parts with lock housing and lock (housing) cover, although in principle a one-piece version or three-part variants are conceivable and are encompassed by the inventive concept. If lock housing and lock (housing) cover are realized, the axis between the lever flange and coupling flange between the respective bearing shell halves is held. That is, both the lock housing and the lock (housing) cover have bearing shell halves, each taken together with the combined lock housing and lock (housing) lid form a continuous bearing shell for receiving the axis.
  • the inventive special actuation and / or locking lever including coupling element can be placed with its axis, for example, in the lock housing and learns automatically after the union of the lock housing with the lock (housing) cover fixing and simultaneous storage in that in this process the respective bearing shell halves are combined to each axis enclosing the bearing cups.
  • the respective bearing shell halves are combined to each axis enclosing the bearing cups.
  • two correspondingly constructed bearing shells are realized, in the interior of the housing.
  • a locking device for a motor vehicle door lock which in a strikingly simple manner couples the actuating unit, for example the lock cylinder acted on by a key, with the actuating and / or locking lever in the interior of the housing of the motor vehicle door lock. Because only two elements are required for this purpose, namely the transmission element and the coupling element as part of the actuating and / or locking lever.
  • the transmission element can be directly and easily connected to the coupling element, so that linear movements of the transmission element or at this point mostly realized outer locking bar are implemented in pivotal movements of the coupling element and thus the outer locking lever , These pivotal movements of the coupling element and thus of the outer locking lever lead in a known manner for taking the functional positions "locked” and "unlocked”.
  • the actuating and / or locking lever or outer locking lever may act on a central locking lever and this in the transfer these functional positions.
  • the actuating and / or locking lever or outer locking lever thus complements or takes over the function of a drive unit, which is usually associated with the central locking lever, as described in detail in DE 102 30 586 A1. Reference should be made at this point to DE 196 32 781 A1. - All this can be done inexpensively and by simple means, wherein the main advantages of the invention can be seen.
  • a locking device for a motor vehicle door lock 1 is shown. From the motor vehicle door lock 1 can be seen only the essential elements of the invention. This is a locking element 2 and an actuating and / or locking lever 3, 4, 5, which in the embodiment as a locking lever 3, 4, 5 or outer locking lever 3, 4, 5 is not restrictive.
  • Pivoting movements of the locking lever 3, 4, 5 and outer locking lever 3, 4, 5 are converted into linear movements of the locking element 2, as indicated in Fig. 3 by a double arrow.
  • These linear actuating movements of the locking element 2 cause a with the locking element 2 interacting and merely indicated central locking lever 6 at least its two functional positions or functional states "unlocked” and "locked” occupies. It is insofar referred to the DE 102 30 586 A1 and DE 196 32 781 A1. Thereafter, independently of the locking element 2, an additional drive unit operating on the central locking lever 6 can also "unlock” and "lock” the taking of the functional states described.
  • the outer locking lever 3, 4, 5 operates in the present case as the inner locking lever 11 in DE 102 30 586 A1.
  • this actuating unit 7, 8 is a locking cylinder 7, which is acted upon by an associated key 8.
  • Rotational movements of the key 8 within the lock cylinder 7 are converted into linear actuating movements of a transmission element 9 connected to the actuation unit 7, 8, in which case it is an outer locking rod 9 in the context of the representation.
  • the outer locking bar 9 is connected in the region of a connecting eye 10 to the locking lever 3, 4, 5, in the present case suspended in this. Consequently, rotational movements of the key 8 with respect to the lock cylinder 7 are converted into linear positioning movements of the outer locking bar 9 and subsequently in turn pivotal movements of the locking lever 3, 4, 5 and finally in the linear translational movements of the locking element 2 to the desired locking function state or EntriegelungsfunktionsTalk the central locking lever 6 and Consequently, the motor vehicle door lock 1 as a whole to be able to represent.
  • the locking lever 3, 4, 5 has a guided out of a housing 11, 12 of the motor vehicle door lock 1 coupling element 5, which is directly connected to the transmission element 9.
  • the locking lever 3, 4, 5 is composed according to the invention of a total of three components, namely a lever flange 3, a coupling flange 5 as a coupling element 5 and an axis or shaft 4 connecting the two flanges 3, 5.
  • the lever flange 3, the coupling flange. 5 and finally the axle 4 taken together form a one-piece plastic component.
  • the lever flange 3 has a cooperating with the locking element 2 actuating lug 3 ', which engages in a corresponding recess in the locking element 2 for transmitting the rotational movements (see Fig .. 3).
  • the lever flange 3 and the coupling flange 5 are rotatably mounted on the common axis 4 and connected to each other with a predetermined overlap in a vertical axial projection to the respective axis 4. That is, in a view from the direction X in Fig. 3 on the locking lever 3, 4, 5, that is, in axial projection, the two flanges 3, 5 have a certain and predetermined overlap.
  • the two flanges 3, 5 are connected substantially congruent in this vertical axial projection to the relevant axis 4. This has the consequence that both flanges 3, 5 are pivoted in phase and sweep substantially matching pivoting angle.
  • the two flanges 3, 5 are respectively arranged at the end of the axis 4 connecting them, in such a way that the axis 4 connects the two flanges 3, 5 to each other at the foot.
  • the coupling flange 5 is shown in FIG. 2 outside the housing 11, 12 of the motor vehicle door lock 1, while the lever flange 3 is located in the interior of the relevant housing 11, 12.
  • Respective limiting webs 13 to the Flanges 3, 5 in conjunction with the housing 11, 12 ensure that the locking lever 3, 4, 5 is held in the axial direction as a whole. Because the respective boundary webs 13 abut against associated walls of the housing 11, 12.
  • the housing 11, 12 consists of a lock housing 11 and a lock cover 12 together, which form the housing 11, 12 for the motor vehicle door lock 1 in total after their mostly latching association. Both the lock housing 11 and the lock cover 12 now have the mentioned bearing shell halves 14, 15. In this case, the lock housing 11, the bearing shell halves 14, while the lock cover 12 has the bearing shell halves 15.
  • the locking lever 3, 4, 5 undergoes both axial support (by the webs 13) and a radial bearing as a result of the bearing shells 14, 15 in the union of the lock housing 11 with the lock cover 12th
  • the coupling flange 5 is arranged in a receptacle 16, which has corresponding boundaries 17, 18.
  • the pivotal angle swept by the coupling flange 5 is limited to values of approximately 90 °.
