Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft die Verkleidung eines Fahrzeuginnenraums mit einem Fach, das mit einem Deckel verschließbar ist, wobei der Deckel eine Verschlussmechanik aufweist.The present invention relates to the lining of a vehicle interior with a compartment which can be closed with a lid, wherein the lid has a closure mechanism.

Die Verriegelungsmechanik ist beispielsweise aus der WO95/27115 , dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster G 89 03 395.7 U1 , den Offenlegungsschriften DE 33 36 952 A1 , DE 103 56 532 A1 , DE 103 50 683 A1 , DE 44 07 522 C1 , DE 44 00 628 A1 sowie der deutschen Patentschrift DE 103 54 645 B3 bekannt. Diese Verriegelungsmechanismen haben jedoch den Nachteil, dass entweder das Schließmittel selbst oder das Betätigungsmittel an dem Deckel angeordnet ist, was zu einem aufwendigen Deckel führt, der gegebenenfalls auch optische Nachteile aufweist und oftmals den zur Verfügung stehenden Raum in dem jeweiligen Fach einschränkt. Weiterer Stand der Technik sind die EP 0 352 176 A , die WO 02/36907 , die DE 43 195 20 A1 , die EP 0 612 901 A , die US 5 693 987 A sowie die DE 196 17 403 A1 .The locking mechanism is for example from the WO95 / 27115 , the German utility model G 89 03 395.7 U1 , the publications DE 33 36 952 A1 . DE 103 56 532 A1 . DE 103 50 683 A1 . DE 44 07 522 C1 . DE 44 00 628 A1 as well as the German patent DE 103 54 645 B3 known. However, these locking mechanisms have the disadvantage that either the closing means itself or the actuating means is arranged on the lid, resulting in a complex lid, which optionally also has optical disadvantages and often restricts the space available in the respective compartment. Further state of the art are the EP 0 352 176 A , the WO 02/36907 , the DE 43 195 20 A1 , the EP 0 612 901 A , the US 5,693,987 A as well as the DE 196 17 403 A1 ,

Es war die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Verkleidung eines Fahrzeuginnenraums mit einem Fach zur Verfügung zu stellen, die die Nachteile des Standes der Technik nicht aufweist.It was the object of the present invention to provide a lining of a vehicle interior with a compartment which does not have the disadvantages of the prior art.

Gelöst wird die Aufgabe mit einer Verkleidung gemäß Patentanspruch 1.The problem is solved with a covering according to claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß ist der Deckel des in der Verkleidung des Fahrzeuginnenraums befindlichen Fachs an zwei Stellen über bewegbare Schließmittel an der Verkleidung verriegelbar, die über ein Betätigungsmittel betätigbar sind, wobei die Schließmittel gegen sich drehende Hebel aufweisen, die über ein einziges Gestänge miteinander verbunden sind, und wobei an nur einem Schließmittel ein Betätigungsmittel angeordnet ist.According to the invention, the cover of the compartment located in the lining of the vehicle compartment can be locked in two places by means of movable closing means on the cover, which can be actuated by means of an actuating means, the closing means being opposed to rotating levers which are connected to each other via a single linkage and on only one closing means an actuating means is arranged.

Es war für den Fachmann überaus erstaunlich und nicht zu erwarten, dass der Verschlussmechanismus einfach und kostengünstig herzustellen ist. Der Deckel des jeweiligen Fachs weist keinerlei mechanische Bauteile auf und ist somit einfach herzustellen und kann vollflächig in den jeweiligen Fahrzeuginnenraum eingebunden werden, ohne optisch nachteilige Einbuchtungen, Schalter oder dergleichen aufzuweisen.It was extremely surprising for the skilled person and not expected that the shutter mechanism is simple and inexpensive to manufacture. The cover of each compartment has no mechanical components and is therefore easy to manufacture and can be integrated over the entire area into the respective vehicle interior be without having visually disadvantageous indentations, switches or the like.

Erfindungsgemäß ist der Deckel des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs über zwei Schließmittel an der Verkleidung des Innenraums eines Kraftfahrzeuges reversibel verriegelbar. Diese Schließmittel sind vorzugsweise rechts und links von dem jeweiligen Deckel angeordnet. Die Schließmittel sind über ein Betätigungsmittel betätigbar. Erfindungsgemäß sind sowohl das Schließmittel als auch das Betätigungsmittel an der Verkleidung angeordnet.According to the invention, the cover of the respective vehicle can be reversibly locked via two closing means on the lining of the interior of a motor vehicle. These closing means are preferably arranged on the right and left of the respective lid. The closing means can be actuated via an actuating means. According to the invention, both the closing means and the actuating means are arranged on the lining.

Erfindungsgemäß weisen die Schließmittel gegensinnig drehende Hebel auf, die über ein einziges Gestänge miteinander verbunden sind und wobei an nur einem Schließmittel ein Betätigungsmittel angeordnet ist. Dies hat insbesondere den Vorteil, dass lediglich ein Betätigungsmittel benötigt wird und dass die gesamte Verschlussmechanik eine überaus einfache Mechanik aufweist. Vorzugsweise sind an den Hebeln Schließstücke, beispielsweise Bolzen, angeordnet, die mit Einbuchtungen, die an dem Deckel angeordnet sind, verriegelt zusammenwirken.According to the invention, the closing means have oppositely rotating levers, which are connected to one another via a single linkage and wherein an actuating means is arranged on only one closing means. This has the particular advantage that only one actuating means is needed and that the entire closure mechanism has a very simple mechanism. Preferably, on the levers closing pieces, such as bolts, arranged, which cooperate with indentations, which are arranged on the lid, locked together.

Vorzugsweise ist der Deckel mittels Scharnieren an der Verkleidung gelagert. Besonders bevorzugt öffnet sich der Deckel, sobald entriegelt, selbsttätig beispielsweise durch sein Eigengewicht, eine Federvorspannung und/oder einen Antrieb.Preferably, the lid is mounted by hinges on the panel. Particularly preferably, the lid opens, as soon unlocked, automatically, for example, by its own weight, a spring preload and / or a drive.

Erfindungsgemäß ist lediglich an einem Schließmittel ein Betätigungsmittel angeordnet.According to the invention, an actuating means is arranged only on a closing means.

Die Betätigungsmittel werden vorzugsweise durch einen Auslöser ausgelöst, der besonders bevorzugt ebenfalls an der Verkleidung angeordnet ist.The actuating means are preferably triggered by a trigger, which is particularly preferably also arranged on the panel.

Weiterhin bevorzugt sind beide Schließmittel durch einen Auslöser betätigbar, der vorzugsweise ebenfalls an der Verkleidung angeordnet ist.Further preferably, both closing means are actuated by a trigger, which is preferably also arranged on the panel.

In einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist das Betätigungsmittel ein elektrisches oder mechanisches Mittel. Derartige Mittel können beispielsweise ein Elektromagnet, ein Motor, ein Bowdenzug oder ein federbelastetes Element sein.In a further preferred embodiment, the actuating means is an electrical or mechanical means. Such means may be, for example, an electromagnet, a motor, a Bowden cable or a spring-loaded element.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand der Figuren 1 bis 4 erläutert. Diese Erläuterungen sind lediglich beispielhaft und schränken den allgemeinen Erfindungsgedanken nicht ein. Die folgenden Ausführungen gelten für beide erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussmechanismen gleichermaßen.

Figur 1
zeigt eine erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform des Verriegelungsmechanismus im verriegelten Zustand.
Figur 2
zeigt den Verriegelungsmechanismus gemäß Figur 1 im entriegelten Zustand.
Figur 3
zeigt ein nicht erfindungsgemäßes Ausführungs beispeil eines Verriegelungsmechanismus.
Figur 4
zeigt noch eine erfindungsgemäße Ausführungsform des Verriegelungsmechanismus.
In the following, the invention is based on the FIGS. 1 to 4 explained. These explanations are merely exemplary and do not limit the general inventive concept. The following statements apply equally to both closure mechanisms according to the invention.
FIG. 1
shows an inventive embodiment of the locking mechanism in the locked state.
FIG. 2
shows the locking mechanism according to FIG. 1 in the unlocked state.
FIG. 3
shows a non-inventive embodiment example of a locking mechanism.
FIG. 4
shows yet another embodiment of the locking mechanism according to the invention.

Figur 1 zeigt den erfindungsgemäßen Verschlussmechanismus 1 des Deckels 2, beispielsweise eines Handschuhfachs. Dieser Deckel 2 ist mit Verschlussstücken 3, 3', die jeweils rechts und links von dem Deckel angeordnet sind, mit der Innenverkleidung eines Kraftfahrzeuges verriegelt. Die Verschlussstücke 3, 3' sind jeweils an Hebeln 4, 4' angeordnet. Beide Hebel 4, 4' sind jeweils um die Drehachsen 5, 5' drehbar gelagert. Die beiden Hebel 4, 4' sind über ein Gestänge 6 miteinander verbunden. An dem linken Hebel 4 ist ein Betätigungsmittel 8, in dem vorliegenden Fall ein Elektromagnet, angeordnet, mit dem die Verschlussmechanik ver- und/oder entriegelnd betätigbar ist. Der Elektromagnet 8 ist mit einem Auslöser 7 verbunden. Alle mechanischen oder elektrischen Mittel sowie bewegbaren Mittel der Verriegelung sind an der Innenverkleidung und nicht an dem Deckel 2 angeordnet. Der Fachmann versteht, dass das Betätigungsmittel auch ein mechanisches Mittel sein kann. In diesem Fall ist auch der Auslöser 7 ein mechanisches Mittel, beispielsweise ein Bowdenzug. FIG. 1 shows the closure mechanism 1 according to the invention of the lid 2, for example, a glove box. This cover 2 is locked with closure pieces 3, 3 ', which are respectively arranged on the right and left of the lid, with the inner lining of a motor vehicle. The closure pieces 3, 3 'are each arranged on levers 4, 4'. Both levers 4, 4 'are each rotatably mounted about the axes of rotation 5, 5'. The two levers 4, 4 'are connected to one another via a linkage 6. On the left lever 4, an actuating means 8, in the present case an electromagnet, is arranged, with which the locking mechanism can be actuated and / or unlocked. The electromagnet 8 is connected to a trigger 7. All mechanical or electrical means and movable means of locking are arranged on the inner lining and not on the cover 2. The skilled person understands that the actuating means can also be a mechanical means. In this case, the trigger 7 is a mechanical means, such as a Bowden cable.

Figur 2 zeigt die Verriegelungsmechanik gemäß Figur 1 im entriegelten Zustand. Der Elektromagnet 8 dreht den Hebel 4 im Uhrzeigersinn, so dass das Schließstück 3 aus der Einbuchtung 10 den Deckel 2 freigibt. Da der Hebel 4 mittels des Gestänges 6 mit dem Hebel 4' verbunden ist, wird dieser gegen den Uhrzeigersinn gedreht und das Schließstück 3' rutscht aus der Einbuchtung 10' in dem Deckel heraus. Der Deckel 2 ist somit entriegelt und kann beispielsweise durch sein Eigengewicht oder eine federnde Vorspannung entlang eines Drehgelenks (nicht dargestellt) aufschwingen. Der Deckel kann jedoch auch mittels eines Motors betätigt werden. Nachdem der Deckel geöffnet oder wieder in seine verriegelte Stellung verbracht worden ist, werden die Schließstücke 3, 3' wieder in die verriegelnde Stellung gebracht und können in die Einbuchtung 10, 10' eingeführt werden. FIG. 2 shows the locking mechanism according to FIG. 1 in the unlocked state. The electromagnet 8 rotates the lever 4 in a clockwise direction, so that the closing piece 3 releases the lid 2 from the indentation 10. Since the lever 4 is connected by means of the linkage 6 with the lever 4 ', it is rotated counterclockwise and the closing piece 3' slips out of the recess 10 'in the lid. The cover 2 is thus unlocked and, for example, by its own weight or a resilient bias along a rotary joint (not shown) swing open. However, the lid can also be actuated by means of a motor. After the lid has been opened or returned to its locked position, the strikers 3, 3 'are again brought into the locking position and can be inserted into the recess 10, 10'.

In Figur 3 wird ein nicht erfindungsgemäßes Ausführungsbeispiel eines Verriegelungsmechanismus gemäß Figur 1 gezeigt, wobei in dem vorliegenden Fall beide Betätigungsmittel 8, 8' Elektromagnete sind, die Schließstücke 3, 3' nach rechts bzw. nach links in eine entriegelnde bzw. verriegelnde Stellung bringen. Beide Elektromagnete 8, 8' sind mittels eines Kabels 12 mit dem Auslöser 7 verbunden. Sowohl der Auslöser 7 als auch die Elektromagnete 8, 8' befinden sich in der Innenverkleidung 11 des Kraftfahrzeugs und nicht an dem Deckel 2. Dasselbe gilt für die Schließstücke 3, 3'. Im Übrigen wird auf die Ausführungen gemäß Figur 1 und Figur 2 verwiesen.In FIG. 3 is a non-inventive embodiment of a locking mechanism according to FIG. 1 In the present case, both actuating means 8, 8 'are electromagnets which bring the strikers 3, 3' to the right and to the left, respectively, into an unlocking or locking position. Both electromagnets 8, 8 'are connected by means of a cable 12 with the trigger 7. Both the trigger 7 and the electromagnets 8, 8 'are located in the inner lining 11 of the motor vehicle and not on the cover 2. The same applies to the closing pieces 3, 3'. Incidentally, the comments in accordance with FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 directed.

Figur 4 zeigt im Wesentlichen die Verriegelungsmechanik gemäß den Figuren 1 und 2. In dem vorliegenden Fall ist das Schließstück 3' federbelastet, so dass es nach Abschalten des Elektromagnets 8 den Hebel 4'und damit auch den Hebel 4 in seine ursprüngliche Stellung zurückdrückt. In dieser Stellung kann der Deckel 2 wieder sehr einfach mit der Innenverkleidung verriegelt werden, Indem er beispielsweise manuell in die verriegelnde Stellung gebracht wird. In dieser Stellung rasten dann die Schließstücke 3, 3' automatisch in die Einbuchtung 10, 10' ein. FIG. 4 shows essentially the locking mechanism according to the Figures 1 and 2 , In the present case, the closing piece 3 'is spring-loaded so that it pushes the lever 4' and thus also the lever 4 back to its original position after switching off the electromagnet 8. In this position, the lid 2 can again be locked very easily with the inner lining, for example, by being manually brought into the locking position. In this position, then the closing pieces 3, 3 'automatically engage in the recess 10, 10' a.
