Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schlossbügelanordnung eines Fahrzeugschlosses, insbesondere für eine Fronthaube, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a lock bracket arrangement of a vehicle lock, in particular for a front hood, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Ein allgemein bekanntes Fahrzeugschloss besteht aus einem Riegelelement und einem kooperierenden Fallenelement, welches als Schlossbügel mit einer U-förmigen Grundform aus zwei Seitenschenkeln und einem Querschenkel ausgebildet ist. Typischerweise sind die drei U-Schenkel aus einem Drahtkörper gebogen, wobei die freien Enden der Seitenschenkel an einem fahrzeugseitig befestigten Trägerblech festgelegt sind. Ein solcher Schlossbügel kann beispielsweise an der Fronthaube eines Fahrzeugs angebracht sein und mit einem karosserieseitig fest angeordneten Fallenelement beispielsweise einer Drehfalle kooperieren. Auch die umgekehrte Schlossbügelanordnung ist bekannt, bei der der Schlossbügel karosseriefest und die übrigen Schlosselemente am beweglichen Fahrzeugteil, insbesondere an einer Fronthaube angeordnet ist. Auch an anderen beweglichen Fahrzeugteilen, wie Fahrzeugtüren, Heckklappen, etc. sind solche Fahrzeugschlösser mit ähnlichen Schlossbügelanordnungen verwendbar.A well-known vehicle lock consists of a locking element and a cooperating latch element, which is designed as a lock bracket with a U-shaped basic shape of two side legs and a transverse leg. Typically, the three U-legs are bent from a wire body, wherein the free ends of the side legs are fixed to a vehicle side mounted support plate. Such a lock bracket may for example be attached to the front hood of a vehicle and cooperate with a body side fixedly arranged trapping element, for example, a rotary latch. The reverse lock bracket assembly is known in which the lock bracket is fixed to the body and the other lock elements on the movable vehicle part, in particular on a front hood is arranged. Also on other moving vehicle parts, such as vehicle doors, tailgates, etc., such vehicle locks are usable with similar lock bracket assemblies.

Dazu ist an einem Seitenschenkel eines U-förmigen Schlossbügels ein Außengewinde angebracht, mit dem dieser Seitenschenkel in ein Innengewinde einer Aufnahmeöffnung höhenverstellbar einschraubbar ist, wobei das freie Ende des anderen Seitenschenkels in einer zweiten Aufnahmeöffnung als Durchstecköffnung zur Verdrehsicherung des Schlossbügels geführt ist.Further, it is generally known in a lock bracket assembly to make a lock bracket adjustable and adjustable in height, wherein the distance of the transverse leg to the support plate for tolerance compensation is configured adjustable. This is on a side leg of a U-shaped Schlossbügels an external thread attached, with which this side legs in an internal thread of a receiving opening in height adjustable screwed, wherein the free end of the other side leg is guided in a second receiving opening as a through opening for preventing rotation of the lock bracket.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine bekannte, gattungsgemäße Schlossbügelanordnung eines Fahrzeugschlosses, insbesondere für eine Fronthaube so weiterzubilden, dass unter Beibehaltung der Einstellmöglichkeit eine fußgängerschutzfreundlichere Anordnung erreicht wird.The object of the invention is to develop a known, generic lock bracket assembly of a vehicle lock, in particular for a front hood so that while maintaining the adjustment a pedestrian protection friendly arrangement is achieved.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. Advantageous embodiments are the subject of the dependent claims.

Gemäß Patentanspruch 1 ist eine Schlossbügelanordnung eines Fahrzeugschlosses, insbesondere für eine Fronthaube, vorgesehen, welche einen Schlossbügel mit wenigstens einem Seitenschenkel und einem Querschenkel aufweist. Ferner umfasst die Schlossbügelanordnung ein Trägerblech mit wenigstens einer Aufnahmeöffnung, in die der wenigstens eine Seitenschenkel eingesetzt ist, zum Beispiel mit seinem freien Ende eingesetzt ist. Erfindungsgemäß ist in die wenigstens eine Aufnahmeöffnung ein Lagerelement so eingeknüpft, dass das Lagerelement bei einer vorgegebenen Beanspruchung in Druckrichtung, insbesondere bei einem Fußgängeraufprall, mit einem Durchtauchen durch das Trägerblech ausknüpft und damit ein Verlagerungsweg für den Schlossbügel freigegeben wird.According to claim 1, a lock bracket assembly of a vehicle lock, in particular for a front hood, is provided, which has a lock bracket with at least one side leg and a transverse leg. Further, the lock bracket assembly comprises a support plate with at least one receiving opening into which the at least one side legs is inserted, for example, is inserted with its free end. According to the invention, a bearing element is knotted in the at least one receiving opening in such a way that the bearing element with a predetermined load in the compression direction, in particular in a pedestrian impact, uncovers with a dipping through the carrier plate and thus a displacement path for the lock strap is released.

Zudem ist hier die Halterung des Schlossbügels vorteilhaft so dimensioniert, dass die funktionsmäßig benötigten Zugkräfte und Momente sicher aufgenommen werden können und lediglich bei einer Beanspruchung in Druckrichtung über einem bestimmten Schwellwert die Verbindung lösbar ist. Das für eine solche Funktion erforderliche ausknüpfbare Lagerelement, z. B. eine Nietmutter, stellt ein einfaches und kostengünstiges Konstruktionselement dar, so dass durch die erfindungsgemäße Integration eines verbesserten Fußgängerschutzes bei einem Aufprall in Schlossnähe des Schlossbügels praktisch keine erhöhten Kosten erstehen.In addition, here the holder of the lock bracket is advantageously dimensioned so that the functionally required tensile forces and moments can be safely absorbed and only when a stress in the direction of pressure above a certain threshold, the connection is solvable. The required for such a function ausknüpfbare bearing element, for. As a rivet nut, represents a simple and inexpensive construction element, so that practically no increased costs incurred by the integration of an improved pedestrian protection according to the invention in an impact near the castle lock.

Das Lagerelement kann grundsätzlich z. B. durch eine Lagerbuchse oder dergleichen gebildet sein, das in die Aufnahmeöffnung, z. B. mittels einer Rastverbindung oder dergleichen eingeknöpft ist. Besonders bevorzugt ist jedoch eine Ausgestaltung, bei der das Lagerelement als Nietmutter ausgebildet ist, wobei die Nietverbindung eben so ausgelegt ist, dass die Nietmutter bei einer vorgegebenen Beanspruchung in Druckrichtung mit einem Durchtauchen durch das Trägerblech ausknüpft und damit der Verlagerungsweg für den Schlossbügel freigegeben wird. Mit einer derartigen Nietverbindung wird eine sichere und vorteilhaft dimensionierbare Lagerelementkonstruktion zur Verfügung gestellt, welche zudem herstellungstechnisch und fertigungstechnisch einfach zu handeln ist. Um die Aufnahme der benötigten Zugkräfte und Momente in der Lagerung des Schlossbügels einerseits sicherzustellen und andererseits eine gezielte vorgegebene Freigabe der Nietverbindung ab einer bestimmten, insbesondere dynamischen Druckbelastung zu ermöglichen wird vorgeschlagen, die Nietmutter mit zwei unterschiedlichen Nietbunden auszuführen, wobei der bei Druckbelastung beanspruchte Nietbund im Durchmesser für ein Durchtauchen der Nietmutter reduzierbar ist, wozu gegebenenfalls Aussparungen am Nietbund beitragen können.The bearing element can basically z. B. be formed by a bearing bush or the like, in the receiving opening, for. B. is buttoned by means of a locking connection or the like. Particularly preferred, however, is an embodiment in which the bearing element is designed as a rivet nut, wherein the riveted joint is just designed so that the rivet nut at a given stress in the pressure direction with a dipping untied by the support plate and thus the displacement path is released for the lock bracket. With such a rivet connection, a secure and advantageously dimensionable bearing element construction is provided, which is also easy to handle in terms of production technology and manufacturing technology. In order to ensure the absorption of the required tensile forces and moments in the mounting of the lock bracket on the one hand and on the other hand to allow a specific predetermined release of the rivet from a certain, in particular dynamic pressure loading is proposed to perform the rivet nut with two different Nietbunden, wherein the claimed in compression Nietbund im Diameter for a penetration of the rivet nut is reducible, which may possibly contribute to cut-outs on the rivet collar.

Besonders bevorzugt ist weiter eine Ausgestaltung, bei der der wenigstens eine Seitenschenkel mittels einer Formschlussverbindung und/oder einer Kraftschlussverbindung, insbesondere mittels einer Schraubverbindung, im Lagerelement gehaltert ist, bevorzugt höhenverstellbar gehaltert ist. Eine derartige höhenverstellbare Schlossbügelanordnung erlaubt eine einfache Einstellung und Justierung derselben, da z. B. der Abstand des Querschenkels zum Trägerblech für einen Toleranzausgleich einstellbar ausgestaltet ist. In diesem Zusammenhang ist insbesondere ein Aufbau von Vorteil, bei dem in Verbindung mit einer U-förmigen Schlossbügelausgestaltung ein erster Seitenschenkel im Lagerelement höhenverstellbar gehaltert und ein zweiter Seitenschenkel z. B. frei verschiebbar in der anderen Aufnahmeöffnung angeordnet ist.Particular preference is further an embodiment in which the at least one side legs by means of a positive connection and / or a frictional connection, in particular by means of a screw connection, is mounted in the bearing element, preferably height-adjustable is supported.
