Definitions

  • the invention relates to an opening handle of a motor vehicle, in particular a handle of a side door with an inertial safety system.
  • the lateral handles of a motor vehicle known today are equipped with an inertial system.
  • This inertial system is triggered during a side impact on the door and blocks the lever to prevent unintentional opening of the side door that could cause an ejection of the passenger outside the vehicle.
  • These known handles comprise a gripping lever movable in rotation relative to the opening between a rest position and a control position.
  • This lever handle can act on a transmission lever that will actuate, via a linkage or Bowden cables the opening of a lock of the opening.
  • the inertial system is composed in known manner of an inertial mass and a locking lug integral with this inertial mass, which cooperates with a shoulder of the transmission lever for locking said lever in the event of a side impact in a position where it can not act to open the lock.
  • the handle includes a handle lever that is rotatable about a first axis in a frame or pedestal for attachment to the door and is mechanically connected to an oscillating wheel that can rotate in said frame about a second axis when the lever is pulled so as to open the door.
  • the oscillating wheel is provided with a shoulder capable of being intercepted by a stop piece forming part of a locking member comprising a rocker type lever which is provided with a mass of inertia and is articulated to the frame or to a body secured to the frame so as to pivot about a third axis, so that during a violent pivoting of the balance the stop piece hits the shoulder and prevents the rotation of the oscillating wheel.
  • This third axis of rotation of the balance is substantially parallel to the first axis of rotation of the handle lever and the mass of inertia is disposed between these two axes of rotation.
  • the present invention aims to overcome these disadvantages of the prior art by providing a handle whose blocking of the inertial safety system in the active position is achieved with an optimized cost and size.
  • the figure 1 represents a perspective view of a door handle 1 of a motor vehicle, in particular a side door.
  • the opening handle 1 comprises a gripping lever 3 accessible from outside the vehicle and on which a user pulls outwards to open the door.
  • This lever 3 is connected to a fixed part 5, also called base, chassis or handle support which is intended to be mounted inside the door, more precisely behind the outer face of the door, and which is therefore not visible once mounted on the vehicle.
  • the handle 1 is here a handle type "Fridge” and the handle lever 3 is rotatable relative to the base 5.
  • the gripping lever 3 can pivot about a first axis of rotation Z between a rest position and a control position for opening a lock of the opening, when the user pulls on this lever 3.
  • This first axis of rotation Z is substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the door.
  • a first embodiment of this base 5 is shown on the figure 2 showing a perspective view of the rear of the handle 1, in particular of its base 5 according to a first embodiment.
  • the base 5 is for example made by injection into a plastic material or a die cast metal.
  • the base 5 comprises a transmission mechanism 7 for connecting the handle lever 3 to the opening mechanism of the door and an inertial safety system 9 to prevent inadvertent opening of the door in the event of impact.
  • the transmission mechanism 7 comprises a transmission lever 11 with a counterweight mounted in a housing of the base 5.
  • This transmission lever 11 is pivotally mounted around a second axis of rotation A between a rest position and an active position in which the transmission lever 11 actuates the opening of the lock.
  • the transmission mechanism 7 is connected to an actuating cable connected to the door mechanism, specifically to the lock (not shown).
  • the cable actuates the opening of the lock.
  • the inertial system 9 has an inertial mass 17 hinged to the base 5 or a portion integral with this base 5. As can be seen from FIG. figure 2 , the inertial mass 17 extends along a horizontal axis, here the longitudinal axis of the gripping lever 3.
  • This inertial mass 17 is pivotally mounted, relative to the base 5, about a third axis of rotation B between a rest position and an active position in which the transmission lever 11 is locked in rotation.
  • the inertial mass can directly lock the gripping lever 3.
  • this third axis of rotation B is substantially perpendicular to the second axis A and substantially parallel to the first axis of rotation Z.
  • a return spring 19 (see figure 3A ), for example of the helical type, makes it possible to recall the inertial mass 17 in the rest position.
  • the inertial mass 17 is shaped to pivot when it undergoes strong accelerations, for example of the order of 80-100 G (1G corresponds to 9.80665 ms -2 ).
  • This inertial mass 17 carries at one end a locking pin 21 which cooperates with a shoulder 23 of the transmission lever 11 during the pivoting of the first inertial mass 17.
  • the handle further comprises first 24 and second complementary means 25 for retaining said inertial mass 17 in its active position, one of which is carried by said inertial mass 17 and the other 24 by the base 5.
  • the retaining means 24, 25 are arranged close to an end of maximum amplitude of movement of said inertial mass in the event of impact, it is at the free end, opposite the ergot. 21.
  • the retaining means 25 carried by the inertial mass 17 comprise a ring or a fixing sleeve 26 on this inertial mass 17 as well as at least, on the Figures 2, 3A and 3B two retaining protrusions 28 in the form of fins or hooks which are elastically deformable and cooperate with the complementary retaining means 24 carried by the base 5. These protuberances 28 are arranged on opposite sides of the inertial mass 17.
  • the retaining means 25 carried by the inertial mass 17 are made of plastic, for example by injection. As a result, it is a low-cost piece that is easily mounted by threading it onto the inertial mass 17.
  • the retaining means 24 carried by the base are preferably integrally formed therewith and are in the form of one or more hooks 30 cooperating with the complementary retaining means 25 carried by the inertial mass.
  • the figure 3A shows the inertial mass and the means 24, 25 of retained in the rest position. If the handle undergoes a significant acceleration (arrow Fa on the figure 3B As mentioned above, the inertial mass 17 moves relatively to the handle in the direction of the arrow Fd.
  • the fins 28 deform elastically to be housed at the end of the race behind the hooks 30 which prevent any oscillation of the inertial mass.
  • the inertial mass 17 thus remains effectively locked in its active locking position of the transmission lever 11, thus securing against any inadvertent opening of the door.
  • the handle 1 of the figure 4 differs from that of figure 2 in that it comprises a first inertial mass 17 and a second inertial mass 117.
  • the first inertial mass 17 functions as has been explained in connection with the Figures 2, 3A and 3B , but it is shaped differently to rotate when it undergoes low accelerations, for example of the order of 15-20 G (1 G corresponds to 9.80665 ms -2 ).
  • the first inertial mass 17 is not locked this time in the active position and therefore, the transmission lever 11 is reversibly locked.
  • the second inertial mass 117 is disposed at the location of the counterweight of the first embodiment. This second inertial mass is dimensioned for high accelerations, for example of the order 80-100G. It thus fulfills the role occupied by the inertial mass 17 of the first embodiment.
  • the inertial mass 117 has in cross section an elongated shape with a free end 120 substantially triangular. Opposite this end 120, the inertial mass 117 is articulated on an axis 122 substantially parallel to the axis A. The inertial mass is maintained in the rest position by a spring, for example helical 123.
  • a lever 124 is integral with the inertial mass 117 and can take an inactive position ( Figure 6A ) in which the transmission lever 11 is not blocked, or in case of shock an active position ( Figure 6B ) in which the lever 124 forms a stop for a cam 126 secured to the transmission lever thus blocking it.
  • first 24 and second complementary retaining means are arranged to act on the second inertial mass 117 in its active position.
  • the retaining means 24 carried by the inertial mass comprise fastening means for fastening to this inertial mass, for example made in the form of a clip 128 grafting onto the inertial mass 117.
  • This clip 128 further comprises a hook 130 which cooperates in the active position with a hook 132 secured to and integral with the base 5.
  • the clip 128 may be made of plastic, as an individual piece which will then be mounted on the inertial mass or for example by overmolding.
  • This hook 128 is an elastically deformable retaining protuberance and disposed, as can be seen in the figures, close to an end of maximum amplitude of movement of said inertial mass 117 (that is to say the end 120). in case of shock.
  • the second inertial mass 117 pivots, overcoming the force of the spring 123, which causes the lever 124 to be found opposite the cam 126, blocking the transmission lever .
  • the hook 130 passes behind the hook 132 thus blocking the inertial mass 117 in its active position.
  • the security system of the handle that has suffered shock can be disabled to allow the opening of the door.
