Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for producing a motor vehicle door lock, with a housing, further comprising at least one plastic carrier, and with electrical / electronic components in and / or on the housing, which individual or all electrical conductors for contacting the electrical / electronic components in the plastic carrier be integrated in the course of a manufacturing process, and then the electrical traces are applied to the independently produced or produced plastic carrier.
  • a metallic circuit element is integrated with a component or the plastic support of the housing by being inserted during molding of the component made of plastic material.
  • Such a component carrier or plastic carrier for locking systems essentially consists of a conductor track unit which can be equipped with electrical or electronic components or components. These components may be connectors, microswitches, sensors, motors, etc. used in a motor vehicle door lock.
  • the conductor track unit consists essentially of a flexible conductor foil or generally a so-called stamped grid, which is or which is encapsulated to form a module made of plastic.
  • the invention is based on the technical problem of further developing such a method so that the flexibility is increased and the production costs are reduced.
  • a generic method for producing a motor vehicle door lock in the invention is characterized in that the electrical conductors are applied to the plastic substrate subtractive structuring, in which the plastic carrier is metallized total on its surface, then a protective coating of the tracks takes place and Finally, the remaining metallization is removed.
  • the production of the plastic carrier on the one hand and the definition or the application of the electrical conductor tracks on the plastic carrier on the other hand is carried out separately from each other.
  • the electrical conductors are unchanged in the plastic carrier in question - at least superficially - integrated and experienced on the one hand protection by the plastic carrier and on the other hand stabilized by the plastic carrier.
  • the conductor tracks may still be completely or partially enclosed by the plastic of the plastic carrier. This is not mandatory.
  • the invention makes use of the known MID (Molded Interconnect Devices) technology, in which the plastic carrier consisting of an electrically nonconducting plastic material on its surface, for example by electrically conductive stamping foils or by local metallization with the desired electrical conductor tracks is equipped. These tracks follow more or less the three-dimensional topography of the plastic carrier.
  • MID Manufacturing Interconnect Devices
  • a component carrier is here propagated for components to be wired to form an electrical assembly, in which case the components are supported on or in the bottom region of the component carrier.
  • circuit wires extending through a clearance above the ground area are attached to terminal portions of the components.
  • Such a procedure is unsuitable for use in the motor vehicle sector because the circuit wires are partly exposed and thus more or less exposed to both mechanical and environmental influences.
  • the present invention proves that the so-called MID technology can be used in the meantime for the production of housings as a whole or of plastic carriers, for example, as components of the housing of motor vehicle door locks.
  • the respective plastic carrier may be part of the housing, form the housing as a whole or be designed as a so-called component carrier independently of the housing, as described in the context of the previously described DE 20 2007 005 076 U1 is explained. All variants are covered by the invention.
  • the procedure is such that the electrical interconnects are applied in a subtractive manner to the plastic carrier in question.
  • the procedure is such that the plastic carrier in the relevant areas is completely equipped with a metallic coating (on its surface) or metallized overall. After that For the most part, this metallization or the associated metal coating is removed, namely in the areas which serve as free areas between the remaining conductor tracks.
  • this approach it is, of course, on the fact that the plastic carrier itself is designed to be electrically non-conductive, as already explained in one piece. In any case, the different basic procedures allow a particularly great flexibility in the definition of the electrical conductors and their attachment to the associated plastic carrier.
  • the plastic carrier may be the entire plastic housing of the motor vehicle door lock, that is to say the casing of the motor vehicle door lock with the recessed metal lock case, which is usually made of metal.
  • the plastic carrier but also only represent a part of the housing.
  • the option that the plastic carrier as a component carrier in the sense of DE 20 007 005 076 U1 is designed.
  • the invention intentionally omits, for example, a prefabricated stamped grid, which is inserted into an injection mold and molded with plastic. Rather, the interconnects can be flexibly adapted to the respective plastic carrier. As a result, various variants of the motor vehicle door lock can be realized by resorting to one and the same injection mold for the plastic carrier or the housing. As a result, the manufacturing costs can be reduced while at the same time achieving increased flexibility.
  • the plastic carrier can be produced in the course of an injection process.
  • an additive metallizing coating is disclosed, which does not form part of the invention.
  • the conductor tracks are applied to the plastic carrier by the plastic carrier in the region of the subsequent conductor tracks undergoes - at least local - metallization.
  • electrically conductive embossing foils or conductor foils or conductor foils which form a connection with the plastic carrier.
  • the so-called hot stamping has proven to be particularly favorable.
  • the electrical conductors can be applied as metallic conductors on the otherwise injection-molded plastic carrier. It can be used in detail on a two-component injection molding process become.
  • a first non-metallizable and electrically non-conductive plastic forms a base body
  • another second electrically non-conductive plastic can be made metallizable and defines the electrical conductor tracks.
  • the other second and metallizable plastic forms a printed circuit board layout.
  • the metallization of the other second plastic can for example be made as in the DE 199 07 245 A1 will be described in detail.
  • a thermoplastic plastic is used as the second plastic, for example polyamide, which can be electrolessly and wet-chemically metallized.
  • the polyamide surface is first roughened and then a metal layer is deposited.
  • a composite of two thermoplastic materials is first prepared, of which one component, the second plastic, is metallizable.
  • the other component, the first plastic remains completely unaffected by the subsequent chemical action of the metallization electrolytes.
  • the overall plastic carrier can be produced in such a way that metallic properties are present in part in the region of the desired conductor tracks.
  • the metallizable plastic or the second plastic in the form of electrical conductors can be easily structured. For this purpose, first the first plastic is injected and then encapsulated by the metallizable second plastic, or vice versa.
  • a metallizable and electrically non-conductive plastic wherein the layout of the tracks is shown sublimely.
  • the first non-metallizable plastic which is also electrically non-conductive, then fills the open areas between the individual tracks.
  • recesses can be used.
  • the first plastic is again not metallizable and electrically non-conductive and are formed in the first plastic, the subsequent traces as wells. These recesses are then filled with the second metallizable and electrically non-conductive plastic.
  • the plastic carrier to be finished on the surface with the strip conductors is firstly activated and structured on its surface. Then, a metal layer is applied to the individual structures or the plastic undergoes a corresponding metallization.
  • Both approaches can be advantageously realized with a laser.
  • the plastic carrier can be converted into an electrically conductive state in the irradiation region of the laser. Then an additional metallization is not required, but rather the plastic of the plastic carrier is modified accordingly. Of course, this requires that the plastic itself is designed to be metallised.
  • the plastic carrier is metallized overall and then a protective coating of the conductors takes place. Subsequently, the remaining metallization is then removed and there remain only the protected by means of the protective coating tracks.
  • the metallization of the surface of the plastic carrier can be carried out again by means of laser irradiation, with inter alia Nd: YAG laser or fiber laser can be used.
  • Nd YAG laser or fiber laser can be used.
  • the entire surface of the plastic carrier is first of all metallized by means of laser radiation or, for example, by measurement.
  • the structure of the desired printed conductors is defined by means of a protective coating. This may be an initially liquid and then curing plastic coating, which is resistant to subsequent etching processes. In any case, after this process, the metallized surface of the plastic carrier, which is not protected by the ⁇ tzresist, then etch away.
  • the plastic carrier can be metallized in a customary manner, that is to say by depositing a metal or copper layer.
  • a metallization by laser irradiation is conceivable.
  • This metallized component surface then undergoes laser structuring by structuring the previously applied plastic layer or layer resistant to the etching process.
  • the remaining exposed copper layer or metal layer is then etched away.
  • the plastic support is again, for example wet-chemically, with a metallic coating, such as a thin copper layer, equipped.
  • a photoresist coating is applied to this copper layer. This coating can be exposed using an example three-dimensional photomask, for example, with UV light. After applying the thus produced etching mask, the photoresistive layer and the copper which is no longer needed can be etched away.
  • the plastic carrier which may be an electronic component carrier, is manufactured independently of the electrical conductors which are applied to the already produced or still to be produced plastic carrier.
  • the invention relies on a per se known to partially modified MID method.
  • the main benefits are the main benefits.
  • a motor vehicle door lock is shown, which is of conventional design, that is a not explicitly illustrated locking mechanism with a catch and pawl has.
  • a locking lever or central locking lever 1 which by means of a drive unit 2, 3, for example, in its positions “unlocked” and “locked” about an axis 4 can be pivoted.
  • an inner locking lever 5 may provide for corresponding pivoting movements of the central locking lever 1.
  • the basic structure is still a housing 6, which at the transition from the Fig. 1 to Fig. 2 partially opened or removed.
  • the housing 6 is composed of an upper housing part 6a and a lower housing part 6b.
  • connection socket 7 in the upper housing part 6a and two switches 8 in the upper housing part 6b which query the position of the rotary latch and the central locking lever 1.
  • the connector 7 and the two switches 8 are as well as the electric motor 2 via a in the Fig. 2 Basically illustrated conductor sheet 9 electrically connected to each other. That is, any signals of the switch 8 are transmitted to a remote control unit via the conductor foil 9 and finally the connection socket 7 or a plug inserted therein.
  • the connection socket 7 ensures the control of the electric motor 2 with the interposition of the conductor film 9.
  • the one half of the housing or the upper housing part 6a acts as a plastic support 6a or component carrier in the sense of DE 20 2007 005 076 U1 .
  • the plastic support 6a carries, inter alia, the connector 7 and can also be equipped with other electrical / electronic components.
  • the component carrier 6a is equipped with the conductor foil 9, which is integrated in the component carrier 6a - at least in the region of its surface.
  • the surface in which the printed circuit film 9 is integrated or onto which it is applied is the surface facing the lower housing part 6b and consequently the switches 8 and the electric motor 2.
  • the housing half or the component carrier 6a For the production of the housing half or the component carrier 6a, this is first formed by means of a plastic injection molding tool. Subsequently, electrical conductors are applied.
  • a printed circuit foil 9 punched out of a metal foil is applied to the plastic carrier 6a in question by hot stamping. This corresponds to an additive metallizing order, which is not the subject of the method according to the invention and only serves to clarify the fundamental principle.
