Definitions
- the present invention is directed to an actuating device for a lock according to the preamble of claim 1 for opening and / or closing a movable part of a vehicle, in particular a door, a tailgate or the like.
- an actuating device has an operable by a motor protective flap, which is loadable by a spring element, and which can take at least two positions, namely a rest position in which the protective flap flush the surface of the movable part, and an operating position, in the a user can intervene in the actuator.
- an actuating element for actuating the lock is provided in or on the housing construction of the actuating device. By the actuator, the user can open and / or close the lock.
- the whole Actuator may be so embedded in the movable part of the vehicle that it forms a smooth front, in particular by the protective flap, with the outside of the movable part, whereby it is provided substantially hidden in the movable part.
- An operation of the lock takes place by the user only when the protective flap is in its operating position. The actual actuator is thus hidden within the actuator.
- the European patent EP 1 402 138 B1 discloses a generic actuator.
- the electric actuator cooperates with an electromechanical lock to open or close the movable member.
- an electrical switching signal or switching pulse is used to actuate the electric lock.
- the mechanical actuator a lever is provided inside the actuator, whereby the mechanical lock is operated.
- the protective flap can be automatically transferred by a motor from the rest position to the operating position to provide a high level of operating comfort.
- the automatic actuation of the protective cover consumes additional energy from the engine, which normally comes from the vehicle battery when the vehicle is parked. Due to the increasing energy consumption for various systems and units in the vehicle, it is important to develop particularly economical systems. Only in this way can it be ensured that the vehicle battery provides enough energy even after a longer standstill to start the vehicle engine.
- the actuator of the invention remains functional even in the event of a power failure, the protective flap must also be manually operable.
- the user must also be able to manually rotate or pivot the protective flap in order to be able to intervene in the actuating device.
- the protective flap After the user has operated the lock to open or close the movable part, the protective flap must move automatically to its rest position, otherwise the actuator remains open, which may, for example, unpleasant driving noise.
- the protective flap is loaded with a spring, whereby it can be independently transferred to its idle position even in the event of a power failure from its operating position.
- the full functionality of the actuator is guaranteed in case of power failure.
- the present invention now provides, in addition, to use a switchable coupling element, whereby the spring element can be decoupled, so that it does not permanently act on the protective flap. This makes it possible to decouple the spring element of the protective flap in normal operation, and then to transfer the protective flap without great resistance or high torque from the engine from the rest position to the operating position.
- the motor is used for actuating the protective flap at the same time for switching the coupling element.
- a gear and / or a lever mechanism between the engine and the coupling element may be provided, whereby the motor indirectly switches the coupling element.
- the motor for the operation of the protective flap can also serve an additional electromechanical actuator for switching the coupling element.
- This electromechanical actuator may include a lifting magnet.
- the additional electromechanical actuator consist of a further motor.
- the coupling element can be mounted on a rotary or pivot axis of the protective flap. If the spring element for the return of the protective flap as a torsion spring, in particular a spiral or leg spring is configured, the spring element and / or the coupling element can be arranged on the rotary or pivot axis for the protective flap.
- the spring element and the coupling element between the movable protective flap and the fixed housing construction.
- the spring element between the protective flap and the coupling element.
- the spring element can also be arranged between the housing construction and the coupling element.
- the suspension element engage in the middle of the width of the protective flap in order to avoid bending or tension across the width of the protective flap.
- one or more spring elements engage the protective flap, which are distributed as evenly as possible over the width of the protective flap and expediently all can be decoupled.
- the actuator in an emergency, in the z. B. is a power failure, works properly, it is recommended that the coupling element, the spring element decoupled only when the engine is activated for the protective flap. Consequently, the spring element acts on the protective flap even in the event of a power failure and can only be decoupled if sufficient energy is available for the movement of the protective flap and thus also for the decoupling of the spring element.
- the motor In normal operation, the motor provides for the protective flap for their provision from the operating position to the rest position.
- a damper element can additionally act on the protective flap, whereby the protective flap is slowly transferred from the operating position to the rest position. Since the motor in normal operation does not move the protective flap jerkily or quickly, it does not have to work against the damper element. Thus, no additional energy for the adjustment of the protective flap is required in the use of a damper element.
- the actuator is used to operate a mechanical lock
- a mechanical actuator in or on the housing construction this mechanical actuator can be configured as a lever, knob or the like.
- the user can through a tensile or compressive movement transmit the required forces via the mechanical actuator to the mechanical lock.
- a linkage or a Bowden cable or the like may be provided between the mechanical actuator and the mechanical lock. It is also conceivable that the mechanical actuator acts directly on the mechanical lock, so that additional force or torque transmission means are not required.
- the actuator according to the invention operated with an electromechanical lock, it is recommended that the electrical actuator as a switch, button, pressure sensor or the like to design. Also, this actuator is easily accessible for a user to arrange within the actuator. The electrical or electronic signal of the actuating element used can then be forwarded via a control line directly or indirectly via a control unit to the electric lock.
- a front flap can be used in addition, which is arranged adjacent to the protective flap movable, whereby the lock is mechanically actuated.
- This additional front flap can be used instead of the mechanical actuator. It is also conceivable that it is used in addition to the electrical and / or mechanical actuator so as to ensure even in the event of a power failure that an electromechanical lock can still be actuated.
- an approach of a user to the actuating device can be detected by a sensor, which is arranged in particular on or in the protective flap and serves to control the motor for the protective flap.
- a sensor which is arranged in particular on or in the protective flap and serves to control the motor for the protective flap.
- the protective flap is automatically transferred to its operating position.
