Definitions
- the invention relates to a handle assembly for a door, in particular for a motor vehicle door, with a pivotally mounted outer handle, which is arranged on the outside on an executed with an inwardly curved recessed door outer skin, wherein the outer handle has an inside arranged first and second bearing arm, the first bearing arm is mounted about an axis of rotation, the outer handle in the region of the first and the second bearing arm each having an end face which faces the outside door skin, and a gap between the end face and the outer door skin.
- Such handle arrangements are basically known in practice. With the help of such handle arrangements can in particular side doors on motor vehicles open and close.
- the outer handle can be designed as a pull handle which opens a motor vehicle door lock connected thereto via a tripping lever mechanism.
- the DE 30 30 519 A1 shows such a pull handle.
- a tolerance compensation can be effected by the guide according to the invention, without causing malfunction during assembly or in the installed state of the handle assembly.
- the outer handle is always kept at a distance to the door outer skin, preferably a tolerance compensation by the movement of the outer handle takes place and the gap between the end face and the outer door skin remains substantially constant.
- the gap is in a range between 0.5 mm and 3 mm. It is particularly advantageous that in the guide for tolerance compensation at the same time the outer handle is rotatably mounted with its first bearing arm, whereby a compact handle assembly can be achieved. Depending on the respective tolerance compensation takes place a relative displacement of the axis of rotation along the guide.
- the first bearing arm is arranged about the axis of rotation at a movable bearing, wherein the second bearing arm is mounted within the vehicle door to a fixed bearing.
- the second bearing arm can only be moved out of the vehicle door by a manual pull on the outer handle, wherein the second bearing arm is held immovably within the door construction in the vehicle direction.
- the guide does not have to be an image of the contour of the outer door skin on the recessed grip. It is sufficient that the direction of the guide runs almost parallel to the curved outer door skin.
- the angle between an applied imaginary tangent at the relevant area of the outer door skin facing the end surface at the first bearing arm and the direction of the guide is less than 20 °, more preferably less than 10 °, and most preferably less than 5 °.
- the said relevant area of the door outer skin can be arcuate but also linear.
- a seal is expediently provided, in order to avoid in particular penetration of moisture into the vehicle door.
- the second bearing arm is guided on an abutment which can be arranged on a door-side support structure in such a way that only the end face associated with the first support arm can be moved along the outer door skin for tolerance compensation.
- the handle assembly is designed in this embodiment of the invention so that in Essentially only the end face of the outer handle on the first bearing arm shifts along the curved outer door skin for tolerance compensation. A movement on the end face of the second bearing arm is largely not done, since the second bearing arm is firmly clamped in the vehicle direction. In addition, a shift of the end face of the outer handle on the first bearing arm is not noticeable to the viewer.
- a tolerance compensation is compensated for example by a possible material expansion exclusively on the floating bearing by a movement of the door handle parallel or nearly parallel to the arcuate recessed grip plate. Since a material expansion is largely reflected as a change in length of the outside handle, the tolerance compensation is essentially a length compensation in the present invention.
- the first bearing arm terminates in a bearing fork, which is formed with the guide, wherein the guide receives a bearing pin connected to the door-side support structure, which forms the axis of rotation.
- the guide is arranged on the door-side support structure, wherein the first bearing arm is at least partially received by the guide.
- the first bearing arm moves along the door-side guide, at the same time the outer handle along the curved grip moves with it.
- the guide may for example be designed as a kind of slotted guide, in which the pin of the first bearing arm is movably held.
- FIG. 1 shows a handle assembly according to the invention, which is attached to a motor vehicle door.
- the handle assembly has a pivotally mounted outer handle 1, which has a first 10 and a second bearing arm 20.
- the outside door handle 1 is fastened on the outside to a door outer skin 3 designed with an inwardly curved recessed grip 2.
- the first bearing arm 10 is mounted about an axis of rotation 11, wherein the second bearing arm 20 can only be moved out of the door in the x-direction.
- the illustrated outer handle 1 is thus fastened to two bearing points on the door-side support structure, wherein the region of the first bearing arm 10 is a movable bearing and the region of the second bearing arm 20 is a fixed bearing.
- the outer handle 1 further has in the region of the first 10 and the second bearing arm 20 each have an outer end face 5, which faces the outer door skin 3. Between the end face 5 and the outer door skin 3 there is a gap 4, which is about 2 mm in the present embodiment.
- the first bearing arm 10 is formed with a bearing fork at its end portion, which is designed with a guide 12.
- a bearing pin 6 is accommodated, which forms the axis of rotation 11.
- the bearing pin 6 is arranged on the door-side support structure, which is not shown as an example.
- the guide 12 is aligned almost parallel to the relevant area B of the curved door panel 3. In the case of any tolerance problems or material expansions which essentially result in a change in length ⁇ L of the handle arrangement, tolerance compensation is effected on the floating bearing of the first bearing arm 10. In this case, a movement of the first bearing arm 10, which is predetermined by the linear direction of the guide 12.
- a material expansion, for example, due to existing temperature differences of the outer handle 1 is compensated by the handle assembly according to the invention such that as far as possible the left grip area moves outwardly along the relevant area B of the door panel 3, wherein substantially the gap 4 is constant remains.
- the movement of the outer end face 5 of the first bearing arm 10 is predetermined by the guide 12 of the first bearing arm 10.
- the end face 5 of the first bearing arm 10 moves in the opposite direction, that is to say into the inner region of the arched recessed grip 2, wherein the direction of movement is again predetermined by the guide 12. Also in this case, there is no contact of the outer handle 1 with the outer door skin 3.
- the possible movement of the outer handle 1 and the first bearing arm 10 is in accordance with a respective double arrow FIG. 1 indicated.
- the tolerance compensation which essentially corresponds to a length compensation, there is largely no movement of the end face 5 of the second bearing arm 20, since the second bearing arm 20 is held immovable in the y-direction and only in the x-direction from the vehicle door by a manual pulling is movable ,
- the outer handle 1 on its side facing the second bearing arm 20 side a receptacle 7 for a cylinder lock, not shown. While the user actuates the outer handle 1, that means the outer handle 1 pulls out of the door, there is a rotation of the outer handle 1 about the axis of rotation 11, wherein there is no displacement of the first bearing arm 10 along the guide 12, since the second bearing arm 20 in Y-direction is fixed and immovable stored.
- the bearing fork of the first bearing arm 10 is executed with a stop 13. A displacement of the first bearing arm 10 for the tolerance compensation can thus be achieved up to a contact of the bearing pin 6 with the stop 13.
- FIG. 2 is shown a further alternative of the handle assembly according to the invention.
- the area of the first bearing arm 10, the movable bearing and the area of the second bearing arm 20, the fixed bearing of the outer handle 1 is one of the main differences is only that the first bearing arm 10 and the guide 31 are designed differently for tolerance compensation.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Griffanordnung für eine Tür, insbesondere für eine Kraftfahrzeugtür, mit einem schwenkbar gelagerten Außengriff, der außenseitig an einer mit einer nach innen gewölbten Griffmulde ausgeführten Türaußenhaut angeordnet ist, wobei der Außengriff einen innenseitig angeordneten ersten und zweiten Lagerarm aufweist, der erste Lagerarm um eine Drehachse gelagert ist, der Außengriff im Bereich des ersten und des zweiten Lagerarmes jeweils eine Stirnfläche aufweist, die der Türaußenhaut zugewandt ist, und ein Spalt zwischen der Stirnfläche und der Türaußenhaut besteht.The invention relates to a handle assembly for a door, in particular for a motor vehicle door, with a pivotally mounted outer handle, which is arranged on the outside on an executed with an inwardly curved recessed door outer skin, wherein the outer handle has an inside arranged first and second bearing arm, the first bearing arm is mounted about an axis of rotation, the outer handle in the region of the first and the second bearing arm each having an end face which faces the outside door skin, and a gap between the end face and the outer door skin.
Derartige Griffanordnungen sind grundsätzlich aus der Praxis bekannt. Mit Hilfe solcher Griffanordnungen lassen sich insbesondere Seitentüren an Kraftfahrzeugen öffnen und verschließen. Zu diesem Zweck kann der Außengriff als Ziehgriff ausgeführt sein, welcher über ein Auslösehebelwerk ein hieran angeschlossenes Kraftfahrzeugtürschloss öffnet. Die
Dies gelingt natürlich nur dann, wenn sich der Schließzylinder der Griffanordnung nicht in verriegelter Position befindet. Anderenfalls wird der Außengriff blockiert oder führt einen Leerhub mit Bezug zum Auslösehebelwerk aus. Anstelle eines Auslösehebelwerkes kann über ein Signal das angeschlossene Kraftfahrzeugtürschloss ebenfalls angesprochen werden.Of course, this only succeeds when the lock cylinder of the handle assembly is not in the locked position. Otherwise, the outside handle is blocked or makes a no-load stroke with respect to the trip lever mechanism. Instead of a trip lever mechanism, the connected motor vehicle door lock can also be addressed via a signal.
Bei den bekannten Griffanordnungen entstehen immer wieder Toleranzprobleme, die sich insbesondere negativ während des Einbaus der Griffanordnung an die Tür oder auch im eingebauten Zustand der Griffanordnung auswirken. Temperatur und Feuchtigkeit sind einer von vielen Einflussfaktoren, die eine Materialausdehnung der einzelnen Komponenten der Griffanordnung auslösen können. Darüber hinaus weisen die einzelnen Elemente der Griffanordnung ihre eigenen, individuellen Toleranzen auf, die ebenfalls während des Einbaus zu berücksichtigen sind. Ist bereits der Außengriff an der Tür montiert, hat sich gezeigt, dass aufgrund etwaiger Materialausdehnungen der Außengriff innerhalb der Griffmulde sich verklemmen kann, welches die Funktionsfähigkeit der Griffanordnung negativ beeinflusst.In the known handle arrangements arise again and again tolerance problems that affect in particular negative during installation of the handle assembly to the door or in the installed state of the handle assembly. Temperature and humidity are one of many influencing factors that can trigger a material expansion of the individual components of the handle assembly. In addition, the individual elements of the handle assembly on their own individual tolerances, which must also be considered during installation. If the outer handle has already been mounted on the door, it has been shown that, due to possible material expansions, the outer handle can become jammed within the recessed grip, which negatively influences the functionality of the handle arrangement.
Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Griffanordnung bereit zu stellen, die die genannten Nachteile vermeidet, insbesondere ohne erheblichen Aufwand montiert werden kann, wobei etwaig bestehende oder entstehende Toleranzen nicht die Funktionsweise der Griffanordnung wesentlich stören.It is the object of the present invention to provide a handle assembly that avoids the disadvantages mentioned, in particular can be mounted without considerable effort, any existing or resulting tolerances do not interfere with the operation of the handle assembly substantially.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird eine Griffanordnung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 vorgeschlagen. In den abhängigen Ansprüchen sind bevorzugte Weiterbildungen ausgeführt.To solve this problem, a handle assembly with the features of claim 1 is proposed. In the dependent claims preferred developments are carried out.
Bei etwaig auftretenden Toleranzen innerhalb der Griffanordnung kann ein Toleranzausgleich durch die erfindungsgemäße Führung bewirkt werden, ohne dass es während der Montage oder im eingebauten Zustand der Griffanordnung zu Funktionsstörungen kommt. Hierbei wird der Außengriff stets auf Distanz zur Türaußenhaut gehalten, wobei vorzugsweise ein Toleranzausgleich durch die Bewegung des Außengriffes erfolgt und der Spalt zwischen der Stirnfläche und der Türaußenhaut im Wesentlichen konstant bleibt. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung liegt der Spalt in einem Bereich zwischen 0,5 mm und 3 mm. Besonders vorteilhaft ist, dass in der Führung zum Toleranzausgleich gleichzeitig der Außengriff mit seinem ersten Lagerarm drehbar gelagert ist, wodurch eine kompakte Griffanordnung erreicht werden kann. In Abhängigkeit von dem jeweiligen Toleranzausgleich erfolgt eine relative Verschiebung der Drehachse entlang der Führung. Vorteilhafterweise ist der erste Lagerarm um die Drehachse an einem Loslager angeordnet, wobei der zweite Lagerarm innerhalb der Fahrzeugtür an einem Festlager befestigt ist. Der zweite Lagerarm ist lediglich aus der Fahrzeugtür durch ein manuelles Ziehen am Außengriff herausbewegbar, wobei in Fahrzeugrichtung der zweite Lagerarm unbeweglich innerhalb der Türkonstruktion gehalten ist. Die Führung muss erfindungsgemäß nicht ein Abbild der Kontur der Türaußenhaut an der Griffmulde sein. Es reicht aus, dass die Richtung der Führung nahezu parallel zur gewölbten Türaußenhaut verläuft. Vorzugsweise ist der Winkel zwischen einer angelegten fiktiven Tangente am relevanten Bereich der Türaußenhaut, der der Stirnfläche am ersten Lagerarm zugewandt ist, und der Richtung der Führung geringer als 20°, mehr bevorzugt geringer als 10° und besonders bevorzugt geringer als 5°. Hierbei kann der genannte relevante Bereich der Türaußenhaut bogenförmig aber auch linear ausgeführt sein. Im Bereich des Durchtrittes des ersten Lagerarms an der Türaußenhaut ist zweckmäßigerweise eine Dichtung vorgesehen, um insbesondere ein Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit in die Fahrzeugtür zu vermeiden.At any tolerances occurring within the handle assembly, a tolerance compensation can be effected by the guide according to the invention, without causing malfunction during assembly or in the installed state of the handle assembly. Here, the outer handle is always kept at a distance to the door outer skin, preferably a tolerance compensation by the movement of the outer handle takes place and the gap between the end face and the outer door skin remains substantially constant. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the gap is in a range between 0.5 mm and 3 mm. It is particularly advantageous that in the guide for tolerance compensation at the same time the outer handle is rotatably mounted with its first bearing arm, whereby a compact handle assembly can be achieved. Depending on the respective tolerance compensation takes place a relative displacement of the axis of rotation along the guide. Advantageously, the first bearing arm is arranged about the axis of rotation at a movable bearing, wherein the second bearing arm is mounted within the vehicle door to a fixed bearing. The second bearing arm can only be moved out of the vehicle door by a manual pull on the outer handle, wherein the second bearing arm is held immovably within the door construction in the vehicle direction. According to the invention, the guide does not have to be an image of the contour of the outer door skin on the recessed grip. It is sufficient that the direction of the guide runs almost parallel to the curved outer door skin. Preferably, the angle between an applied imaginary tangent at the relevant area of the outer door skin facing the end surface at the first bearing arm and the direction of the guide is less than 20 °, more preferably less than 10 °, and most preferably less than 5 °. In this case, the said relevant area of the door outer skin can be arcuate but also linear. In the area of the passage of the first bearing arm on the door outer skin, a seal is expediently provided, in order to avoid in particular penetration of moisture into the vehicle door.
Erfindungsgemäß ist der zweite Lagerarm an einem Widerlager, das an einer türseitigen Trägerkonstruktion anordbar ist, derart geführt, dass für den Toleranzausgleich lediglich die dem ersten Lagerarm zugeordnete Stirnfläche entlang der Türaußenhaut bewegbar ist. Die Griffanordnung ist in dieser Ausführungsform der Erfindung so ausgelegt, dass im Wesentlichen nur die Stirnfläche des Außengriffes am ersten Lagerarm sich entlang der gewölbten Türaußenhaut für den Toleranzausgleich verschiebt. Eine Bewegung an der Stirnfläche des zweiten Lagerarms erfolgt weitestgehend nicht, da der zweite Lagerarm in Fahrzeugrichtung fest eingespannt ist. Zudem fällt für den Betrachter eine Verschiebung der Stirnfläche des Außengriffes am ersten Lagerarm nicht auf. Das bedeutet, dass ein Toleranzausgleich beispielsweise durch eine etwaige Materialausdehnung ausschließlich am Loslager durch eine Bewegung des Türgriffes parallel oder nahezu parallel zum bogenförmigen Griffmuldenblech kompensiert wird. Da sich eine Materialausdehnung weitestgehend als Längenänderung beim Außengriff niederschlägt, dient der Toleranzausgleich im Wesentlichen einem Längenausgleich bei der vorliegenden Erfindung.According to the invention, the second bearing arm is guided on an abutment which can be arranged on a door-side support structure in such a way that only the end face associated with the first support arm can be moved along the outer door skin for tolerance compensation. The handle assembly is designed in this embodiment of the invention so that in Essentially only the end face of the outer handle on the first bearing arm shifts along the curved outer door skin for tolerance compensation. A movement on the end face of the second bearing arm is largely not done, since the second bearing arm is firmly clamped in the vehicle direction. In addition, a shift of the end face of the outer handle on the first bearing arm is not noticeable to the viewer. This means that a tolerance compensation is compensated for example by a possible material expansion exclusively on the floating bearing by a movement of the door handle parallel or nearly parallel to the arcuate recessed grip plate. Since a material expansion is largely reflected as a change in length of the outside handle, the tolerance compensation is essentially a length compensation in the present invention.
Weiterhin kann vorteilhaft sein, dass der erste Lagerarm in eine Lagergabel ausläuft, die mit der Führung ausgebildet ist, wobei die Führung einen mit der türseitigen Trägerkonstruktion verbundenen Lagerzapfen aufnimmt, der die Drehachse bildet. Zudem kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass die Führung an der türseitigen Trägerkonstruktion angeordnet ist, wobei der erste Lagerarm zumindest teilweise durch die Führung aufgenommen ist. Bei dieser Ausführungsform kann es sinnvoll sein, den ersten Lagerarm mit mindestens einem Zapfen auszubilden, der in der Führung gehalten ist. Während eines Toleranzausgleiches bewegt sich der erste Lagerarm entlang der türseitigen Führung, wobei gleichzeitig der Außengriff entlang der gewölbten Griffmulde sich mitbewegt. Die Führung kann beispielsweise als eine Art Kulissenführung ausgeführt sein, in die der Zapfen des ersten Lagerarmes beweglich gehalten ist.Furthermore, it may be advantageous that the first bearing arm terminates in a bearing fork, which is formed with the guide, wherein the guide receives a bearing pin connected to the door-side support structure, which forms the axis of rotation. In addition, it can be provided according to the invention that the guide is arranged on the door-side support structure, wherein the first bearing arm is at least partially received by the guide. In this embodiment, it may be useful to form the first bearing arm with at least one pin which is held in the guide. During a tolerance compensation, the first bearing arm moves along the door-side guide, at the same time the outer handle along the curved grip moves with it. The guide may for example be designed as a kind of slotted guide, in which the pin of the first bearing arm is movably held.
Der erste Lagerarm kann in einer weiteren Alternative der Erfindung zwei Lagerzapfen aufweisen, die jeweils an einer Seite des Lagerarms angeordnet sind und in die Führung sich erstrecken. Zweckmäßigerweise ist der erste Lagerarm mit dem Zapfen sowie mit dem Außengriff einstückig verbunden. Der Lagerarm mit Zapfen und Außengriff kann als ein Spritzgussteil aus Kunststoff oder aus Metall ausgeführt sein. Weiterhin ist es denkbar, den Außengriff, den ersten und den zweiten Lagerarm sowie den Zapfen, der die Verbindung zwischen dem ersten Lagerarm und der Führung herstellt, aus unterschiedlichen Materialien auszuführen. Je nach Beanspruchung kann es Sinn machen, einen Kunststoff, der durch Glasfasern und/oder Kohlenstofffasern und/oder durch Aramidfasern verstärkt ist, vorzusehen.
Vorteilhafterweise ist die Führung linear oder bogenförmig ausgeführt. Bei einer linearen Ausbildung ist die Führung nahezu der Kontur der Wölbung der Griffmulde angepasst, dass heißt die Führung verläuft für den Toleranzausgleich nahezu parallel zur Kontur der Griffmulde des genannten relevanten Bereiches der Türaußenhaut. Eine optimale Kompensation eines Toleranzausgleiches wird durch die bogenförmige Führung erzielt, die ein tatsächliches Abbild der Kontur der Griffmuldenwölbung darstellt. In einer möglichen Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Führung und die Kontur der Wölbung der Griffmulde bogenförmig ausgebildet, wobei der kleinste Abstand zwischen Führung und Kontur der Wölbung konstant bleibt, das bedeutet, dass es zu keinem Schnittpunkt beider Kurven kommt. Auch ein derartiger Verlauf ist als "paralleler" Verlauf zu verstehen. Bevorzugt ist die Richtung der Führung in einem Winkel α zur Fahrzeugrichtung vorgesehen, der zwischen 0° < α ≤ 50°, insbesondere zwischen 20° < α ≤ 45° und besonders bevorzugt zwischen 25° < α ≤ 40° liegt. Der Winkelbereich wird durch den Verlauf des relevanten Bereiches der Türaußenhaut bestimmt, der der Stirnfläche des ersten Lagerarmes beabstandet zugewandt ist.
Weitere Vorteile, Merkmale und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung, in der unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung im Einzelnen beschrieben sind.

Advantageously, the guide is linear or arcuate. In a linear design, the guide is almost adapted to the contour of the curvature of the recessed grip, that is, the guide extends for the tolerance compensation almost parallel to the contour of the recessed grip of said relevant area of the outer door skin. An optimal compensation of a tolerance compensation is achieved by the arcuate guide, which represents an actual image of the contour of the recessed grip curvature. In one possible embodiment of the invention, the guide and the contour of the curvature of the recessed grip are arc-shaped, wherein the smallest distance between the guide and contour of the curvature remains constant, which means that there is no intersection of the two curves. Even such a course is to be understood as a "parallel" course. Preferably, the direction of the guide is provided at an angle α to the vehicle direction, which is between 0 ° <α ≤ 50 °, in particular between 20 ° <α ≤ 45 ° and particularly preferably between 25 ° <α ≤ 40 °. The angle range is determined by the course of the relevant area of the outer door skin which faces the end face of the first bearing arm at a distance.

Der dargestellte Außengriff 1 ist somit an zwei Lagerstellen an der türseitigen Trägerkonstruktion befestigt, wobei der Bereich des ersten Lagerarmes 10 ein Loslager und der Bereich des zweiten Lagerarmes 20 ein Festlager darstellt. Der Außengriff 1 weist ferner im Bereich des ersten 10 und des zweiten Lagerarmes 20 jeweils eine außenliegende Stirnfläche 5 auf, die der Türaußenhaut 3 zugewandt ist. Zwischen der Stirnfläche 5 sowie der Türaußenhaut 3 besteht ein Spalt 4, der ca. 2 mm im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel beträgt.The illustrated outer handle 1 is thus fastened to two bearing points on the door-side support structure, wherein the region of the
Der erste Lagerarm 10 ist mit einer Lagergabel an seinem Endbereich ausgebildet, die mit einer Führung 12 ausgeführt ist. In der Führung 12 ist ein Lagerzapfen 6 aufgenommen, der die Drehachse 11 bildet. Der Lagerzapfen 6 ist an der türseitigen Trägerkonstruktion, die nicht exemplarisch dargestellt ist, angeordnet. Die Führung 12 ist nahezu parallel zum relevanten Bereich B des gewölbten Türbleches 3 ausgerichtet. Bei etwaigen Toleranzproblemen oder Materialausdehnungen, die im Wesentlichen eine Längenänderung ΔL der Griffanordnung entstehen lassen, wird ein Toleranzausgleich am Loslager des ersten Lagerarmes 10 bewirkt. In diesem Fall erfolgt eine Bewegung des ersten Lagerarmes 10, die durch die lineare Richtung der Führung 12 vorgegeben ist.The
Eine Materialausdehnung beispielsweise aufgrund vorliegender Temperaturdifferenzen des Außengriffes 1 wird durch die erfindungsgemäße Griffanordnung derart kompensiert, dass sich weitestgehend der linke Griffbereich nach außen entlang des relevanten Bereiches B des Türbleches 3 verschiebt, wobei im Wesentlichen der Spalt 4 konstant bleibt. Die Bewegung der außenliegenden Stirnfläche 5 des ersten Lagerarmes 10 wird durch die Führung 12 des ersten Lagerarmes 10 vorgegeben. Bei einer Materialschrumpfung hingegen bewegt sich die Stirnfläche 5 des ersten Lagerarmes 10 in die entgegengesetzte Richtung, dass heißt in den Innenbereich der gewölbten Griffmulde 2, wobei wiederum die Bewegungsrichtung durch die Führung 12 vorgegeben ist. Auch in diesem Fall kommt es nicht zu einer Kontaktierung des Außengriffes 1 mit der Türaußenhaut 3.A material expansion, for example, due to existing temperature differences of the outer handle 1 is compensated by the handle assembly according to the invention such that as far as possible the left grip area moves outwardly along the relevant area B of the
