Definitions

  • the invention relates to a motor vehicle with a side skirts.
  • a passenger car with a side panel in the region of a side sill is known.
  • the side paneling can be moved in and out via positioning elements depending on the driving speed.
  • the side trim in the extended position improves the aerodynamics of the motor vehicle, while it does not impair the optics of the vehicle when the motor vehicle is stationary in the lowered position.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a motor vehicle with a side skirts that has good aerodynamics while driving and that ensures good entry and exit comfort.
  • a lateral door opening of a motor vehicle is bounded below by a side sill, which has a load-bearing structure and an outer side paneling.
  • the outer side panel is hinged to the supporting structure via at least one four-bar linkage, so that it can be displaced from an operative position in which it improves the aerodynamic properties of the motor vehicle into an entry position, in which the side skirts narrower in vehicle transverse direction than in the operative position, so that the inputs and Get out of a passenger through the door opening is facilitated. Because when entering and exiting the passenger's legs must be lifted over the side sill. The narrower it is, the easier it is to get in and out. In the solution according to the invention, the functions of the supporting structure of the side skirt are not impaired in terms of rigidity and crash.
  • FIG. 1 shows a section through a side skirts of a passenger car with an outer side panel in an operative position
  • FIG. 2 shows a section through the side skirts from FIG. 1 with the outer side panel in an entry position
  • Fig. 3 is a schematic representation of a mechanical coupling to the displacement of the outer side panel in response to a displacement of a side door of the passenger car.
  • a side sill 1 of a passenger car is shown below a door cutout opening.
  • the side sill 1 consists of a supporting structure 2 in shell construction and an outer side panel 3.
  • the outer side panel 3 is hinged to the supporting structure 2 via two links 4 and 5, which serve as a four-bar linkage.
  • the outer side panel 3 is in an operative position, while it is in Fig. 2 in a folded down and the supporting structure 2 towards entry position. In the entry position, the outer side panel 3 abuts against the supporting structure 2.
  • the door opening above the side sill 1 can be closed by a pivotable side door 6, which in Fig. 1 in a closed Position is.
  • a pivotable side door 6 which in Fig. 1 in a closed Position is.
  • the outer side panel 3 pivots out of the operative position into the entry position.
  • the outer side panel pivots out of the entry position into the operative position.
  • the mechanism required for this purpose is shown schematically in Fig. 3:
  • the upper link 4 is fixedly connected to the hinge axis 7, which is pivotally mounted on the supporting structure 2.
  • a bevel gear 8 is fixed, which is in engagement with a further bevel gear 9.
  • This further bevel gear 9 is connected at a lower end of a rotatable shaft 10 with this, which is connected at its upper end with a universal joint 11.
  • the universal joint 11 is connected to a bolt 12 of a hinge, which is attached to the side door 6, and via which the side door 6 is pivotally connected to a body of the passenger car.
  • the outer side panel 3 pivots automatically due to a • mechanical coupling when opening the side door 6 from the operative position in the entry position, in which the side sill 1 is narrower by about 50 mm than in the operative position. This facilitates the entry and exit of passengers through the door opening.
  • the outer isverklei ⁇ tion is in the entry position in a downwardly displaced position, so that the risk is reduced to dirty or his clothes when entering or exiting the dirty outer side panel 3.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un véhicule automobile présentant une ouverture de portière latérale délimitée en bas par un bas de caisse latéral (1) qui se compose d'une structure porteuse (2) et d'une jupe latérale extérieure (3). Cette jupe latérale extérieure (3) est reliée de manière articulée à la structure porteuse (2) par l'intermédiaire d'au moins un système à quatre joints articulés (4, 5) de façon à pouvoir être déplacée d'une position active, dans laquelle elle améliore les propriétés aérodynamiques du véhicule, à une position d'entrée, dans laquelle le bas de caisse latéral (1) est plus étroit que dans la position active vu dans le sens transversal du véhicule, ce qui facilite l'entrée et la sortie d'un passager par l'ouverture de portière. Lors de l'entrée et de la sortie, le passager doit lever ses jambes par-dessus le bas de caisse latéral (1). Plus ce dernier est étroit, plus le passager peut entrer ou sortir facilement. Grâce à la solution selon l'invention, les fonctions de la structure porteuse (2) du bas de caisse latéral (1) ne sont pas affectées au niveau de la rigidité et de la résistance aux chocs.
