Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a hinge with a checkarm, in order to provide fixation of the door at a predetermined angle while the door is being opened in vehicles and particularly in rear cargo doors.
  • EP 1 726 758 A1 and FR 2 108 801 A1 both disclose a hinge with a checkarm.
  • hinges with pluralities of functions are utilized connecting vehicle doors and vehicle body to each other.
  • These hinge systems can be used in all parts of the vehicles where opening-closing mechanisms are required, like the baggage doors, vehicle doors, front doors or the sunroofs.
  • Hinges are members generally carrying the door by connecting it to the vehicle body and providing opening and closing of the door at a certain axis.
  • the checkarms in the present system prevent the door from opening in an excessive manner or prevent the door from closing automatically unless a force is applied or unless there is an intervention while the door is in open position.
  • checkarms are mechanisms whose some part is provided in the vehicle body and whose some part is provided in the vehicle door.
  • the hinge and the checkarm are positioned in the vehicles in an independent manner from each other. After the vehicle door is connected to the vehicle body, the checkarm is assembled from the bottom part or top part of the hinge.
  • the vehicle producers form different housings for the hinges and different housings for the checkarms.
  • the hinge and the checkarm are connected to the door and to the body by being screwed.
  • Using two different materials for the two different functions leads to an increase in the number of pieces utilized.
  • the assembly durations for the door and the body are increasing, and the cost is increasing.
  • great amount of time and cost loss are occurring for the producers.
  • the present invention relates to a hinge with a checkarm, in order to eliminate the abovementioned problems and to bring new advantages to the related technical field.

  • the lock member is joining with the gripping member.
  • the checkarm is entering to the checkarm opening formed on the vehicle body.
  • the press arm and the checkarm are connected in a removable manner.
  • the total length of the checkarm can be changed as the connection member displaces along the length of the adjustment slot.
  • the lock member is provided on the checkarm so as to define a gripping opening through which the gripping member can pass after the door is opened at a certain angle and defined between the checkarm body of the checkarm and the lock member.
  • the gripping member is passing through the gripping opening and joins the lock member.
  • the lock member is positioned at a long distance from the checkarm body such that a gripping opening is defined in between.
  • said gripping member is provided on the base part of the fixed body connected to the vehicle body.
  • the position of the gripping member is fixed as the assembly of the hinge with a checkarm is realized.
  • the gripping member comprises a lock housing wherein the lock member is retained.
  • the lock member remains fixed when it is retained by the gripping member.
  • the checkarm body comprises a body inner gap extending in a longitudinal manner and having dimensions such that the gripping member can enter therein at least partially.
  • the lock member and the gripping member are positioned in the same direction.
  • the checkarm is guided towards the checkarm opening during the passage from the open position to the closed position.
  • the strength of the fixed body is increased.
  • the guide ramp comprises at least one ramp end part extending at least partially towards the gripping member.
  • the gripping member comprises at least one gripping connection piece for providing the connection of the fixed body to the base part.
  • the gripping member is produced as a separate piece and it can be assembled to the fixed body afterwards.
  • the subject matter hinge (1) with the checkarm essentially comprises a fixed body (10) to be connected to the vehicle body (50), a movable body (20) to be connected to the vehicle door (60), and a checkarm (30) extending between the fixed body (10) and the movable body (20) for keeping the door (60) fixed when the door (60) is opened.
