Definitions

  • front In this specification, the terms “front,” “frontward,” “back,” “backward,” “up” “upper,” “low,” “lower,” “left,” “right,” and similar such terms are not to be construed as limiting the invention to a particular orientation. Instead, these terms are used only on a relative basis, and with reference to the following directions in the drawing: front-back, up-down and left-right, respectively designated by the pairs of letters: F-B, U-D and L-R.
  • the invention relates to locking mechanisms, in particular for a motor vehicle.
  • a locking mechanism of the type comprising:
  • the blocking unit is often a latch.
  • An advantage of such a mechanism is then to be able to place the latch remotely from the lever actuation device by using a rod, pulled by the lever, to activate the latch.
  • the weight prevents unwanted opening of the panel in case of a collision from the front, by forming a counter or balance weight with respect to the lever activation system.
  • the link element further comprises a restoring portion intended to be pushed by the upper arm of the lever when the lever rotates from its blocking position toward its unblocking position, so as to move the lever actuation device toward its front position.
  • the lever is not likely to reach its unblocking position in case of a collision from the back.
  • the reason being that the restoring portion is pushed by the upper arm of the lever, which moves the lever actuation device towards its front position.
  • the inertia of the lever actuation device tends to make the lever actuation device move towards its back position. This backward movement makes up for the pushing of the upper arm of the lever, and helps preventing the lever from reaching its unblocking position.
  • the link element is furthermore intended to move between a coupled position in which the pushing portion is able to push the upper arm of the lever and an uncoupled position in which the pushing portion is unable to push the lever
  • the lever actuation device further comprises a coupling system intended to move the link element between its coupled position and its uncoupled position
  • the restoring element is intended to be pushed by the upper arm of the lever when the lever rotates from its blocking position to its unblocking position, so as to move the lever actuation device from its back position to its front position, whatever the position of the link element - coupled or uncoupled - may be.
  • the lever actuation device is intended move along a second axis.
  • the link element is intended to rotate around the second axis in order to move between its coupled position and its uncoupled position.
  • the link element comprises a base and a wall circumferential with respect to the second axis and projecting frontward from the base, the circumferential wall is provided with a longitudinal slot and a circumferential slot, the circumferential slot joining the longitudinal slot, the return element is formed by the portion of the circumferential wall extending frontward with respect to the circumferential slot, and the lever comprises a pin projecting from the upper arm of the lever and extending in the circumferential slot when the link element is in the coupled position, and in the longitudinal slot when the link element is in the uncoupled position.
  • the link element is bistable between its coupled position and its uncoupled position.
  • the weight has a mass chosen so that, when the locking mechanism is accelerating along the first axis, the upper arm of the lever and the lever actuation device produce a first torque on the lever around the first axis, while the lower arm and the weight of the lever produce a second torque on the lever around the first axis, the first and second torques having opposite signs and equal absolute values, plus or minus 10%.
  • the blocking unit is a latch.
  • the lever actuation device further comprises a pushbutton intended to be pushed frontward so as to push the lever actuation device front its back position to its front position.
  • an opening system comprising a panel and a locking mechanism for the panel, as previously provided.
  • a motor vehicle comprising an opening system as previously provided, wherein the panel is a trunk panel.
  • the opening system 100 is a trunk opening system for a motor vehicle (not depicted). Furthermore, the directions (front-back, up-down, left-right) correspond to the usual directions of the motor vehicle.
  • the opening system 100 comprises a frame 102, for example the body-in-white of the motor vehicle.
  • the opening system 100 further comprises a panel 104 intended to move with respect to the frame 102 to selectively take an open position and a closed position.
  • the panel 104 is a trunk panel intended to selectively cover and give access to the trunk (not depicted) of the motor vehicle.
  • the opening system 100 further comprises a locking mechanism 106 for selectively blocking the panel 104 in its closed position and letting the panel 104 be opened.
  • the locking mechanism 106 is located frontward with respect to the panel 104.
  • the locking mechanism 106 first comprises a blocking unit intended to selectively take a blocking configuration in which the blocking unit blocks the panel 104 in its closed position, and an unblocking configuration in which the blocking unit lets the panel 104 be opened.
  • the blocking unit is a latch 108, for example, a mechanical latch, an electro-mechanical latch or a magnetic latch.
  • the latch 108 comprises a base 110 fixed to the frame 102, and a casing 112 fixed to the panel 104 in a manner not depicted on figure 1 .
  • the latch 108 further comprises a bolt 114 mounted on the casing 112 in a movable way, so as to selectively take an engaged position and a disengaged position.
  • the bolt 114 engages the casing 112 in order to attach the casing 112 to the base 110, and thus maintain the panel 104 in its closed position.
  • the disengaged position the bolt 114 is disengaged from the base 112 in order to allow separation of the casing 112 from the base 110, and thus opening of the panel 104.
  • the locking mechanism 106 further comprises a blocking unit actuation system 116.
  • the blocking unit is a latch
  • the system 116 will from now on be called latch actuation system 116.
  • the latch actuation system 116 is intended to be activated by a user in order to make the latch 108 let the panel 104 be opened.
  • the latch actuation system 116 first comprises a lever 118 intended to rotate around a left-right axis A1 between a blocking position (which is the position depicted on figure 1 ) and an unblocking position, in order to put the latch 108 in respectively its blocking configuration and unblocking configuration.

  • the link element 134 first comprises a pushing portion 136 intended to push the upper arm 120 of the lever 118 frontward so as to rotate the lever 118 from its unblocking position to its blocking position when the lever actuation device 130 moves from its back position to its front position.
  • the link element 134 further comprises a return portion 138 intended to be pushed by the upper arm 120 of the lever 118 when the lever 118 rotates from its blocking position to its unblocking position, so as to move the lever actuation device 130 from its back position to its front position.
  • the return portion 138 is fixed to the pushing portion 136.
  • the link element 134 is furthermore intended to move between a coupled position in which the pushing portion 136 is able to push the lever 118 and an uncoupled position in which the pushing portion 136 is unable to push the lever 118, so that pushing the pushbutton 132 does not activate the lever 118.
  • the link element 134 is intended to rotate with respect to the housing 128 around the axis A2 for moving between its coupled position and its uncoupled position.
  • the link element 134 is bistable between its coupled and uncoupled position.
  • the lever actuation device 130 further comprises a coupling system 140 intended to move the link element 134 between its coupled position and its uncoupled position.
  • the coupling system 140 is activated by use of a key and is therefore provided with a key insertion slot 142 located for example in the center of the pushbutton 132.
  • the return portion 138 is intended to be pushed by the upper arm 120 of the lever 118, whatever the position of the link element 134 - coupled or uncoupled - may be.
  • the link element 134 first comprises a disk-shaped base 202 centered on the axis A2.
  • the link element 134 further comprises a circumferential wall 204 projecting frontward from the disk-shaped base 202.
  • the circumferential wall 204 is provided with a longitudinal slot 206 and a circumferential slot 208.
  • the circumferential slot 208 joins the longitudinal slot 206 at a front end of the latter.
  • the return element 138 is formed by the portion of the circumferential wall 204 extending frontward with respect to the circumferential slot 208.
  • the portion of the circumferential wall 204 extending backward with respect to the circumferential slot 208 forms a stop 210 intended to push the lever 118, as it will be explained below.
  • the lever 118 further comprises a pin 302 projecting from the upper arm 120 of the lever 118 and extending in the circumferential slot 206 when the link element 134 is in the coupled position, and in the longitudinal slot 208 when the link element 134 is in the uncoupled position.
  • the lever 118 further comprises a restoration means 304 intended to restore the lever 118 from its unblocking position to its blocking position.
  • the restoration means 304 is a restoration spring.
  • the link element 134 is first assumed to be in its coupled position while the panel 104 is closed and blocked in this closed position by the latch 108.
  • the pin 302 of the lever 118 is located in the circumferential slot 208 of the link element 134 and aligned with the stop 210 of the link element 134 with respect to the front-back direction.
  • lever actuation device 130 When an user activates the lever actuation device 130 by pushing the pushbutton 132, the lever actuation device 130 moves from its back position to its front position.
  • the stop 210 pushes the upper arm 120 of the lever 118 frontward so as to move the lever 118 from its blocking position to its unblocking position.
  • the rod 126 moves the bolt 114 of the latch 118 from its engaged position to its disengaged position, allowing opening of the panel 104.
  • the restoration means 304 restores the lever 118 to its blocking position.
  • the pin 302 pushed the link element 134 backward to make the lever actuation device 130 move from its front position to its back position.
  • the rod 126 moves the bolt 114 of the latch 108 from its disengaged position to its engaged position. If the casing 112 is against the base 110, the latch 108 blocks the panel 104 in its closed position.
  • the inertia of the lever actuation device 130 tends to make the lever actuation device 130 move from its back position toward its front position.
  • the stop 210 pushes the pin 302 of the lever 118, so that the lever 118 tends to move from its blocking position toward its unblocking position, which poses a danger of opening of the panel 104.
  • the inertia of the lower arm 122 and the weight 124 of the lever 118 tends to make the lower arm 122 move frontward, so that the lever 118 tends to move from its unblocking position toward its blocking position.
  • the mass of the weight 124 is chosen so that, when the locking mechanism 106 is accelerating along the axis A1, for instance as a result of a front or back collision, the upper arm 120 of the lever 118 and the lever actuation device 130 produce a first torque on the lever 118 around the axis A1, while the lower arm 122 of the lever 118 and the weight 124 of the lever 118 produce a second torque on the lever 118 around the axis A1, the first and second torques having opposite signs and equal absolute values, plus or minus 10%.
  • the inertia of the lower arm 122 and the weight 124 of the lever 118 compensates the inertia of the lever actuation device 130, and prevents the lever 118 from reaching its unblocking position. Opening of the panel 104 is therefore prevented.
  • the inertia of the lower arm 122 and the weight 124 of the lever 118 tends to make the lower arm 122 move backward, so that the lever 118 tends to move from its blocking position toward its unblocking position, which poses a danger of opening of the panel 104.
  • the inertia of the lever actuation device 130 tends to make the lever actuation device 130 move backward and drag along the upper arm 120 of the lever by means of the return portion 138.
  • the inertia of lever actuation device 130 compensates the inertia of the lower arm 122 and weight 124 and prevents the lever 118 from reaching its unblocking position. Opening of the panel 104 is therefore prevented.
  • the link element 134 moves from its coupled position to its uncoupled position.
  • the pin 302 of the lever 118 travels into the circumferential slot 208 and reaches the front end of the longitudinal slot 210, so that the stop 210 is shifted from the pin 302 and is unable to push the pin 302 frontward, and thus also to move the lever 118 from its blocking position to its unblocking position. Pushing the pushbutton 132 does not open the panel 104 anymore.
  • the inertia of the lower arm 122 and the weight 124 of the lever 118 tends to make the lower arm 122 move backward, so that the lever 118 tends to move from its blocking position toward its unblocking position, which poses a danger of opening of the panel 104.
  • the inertia of the lever actuation device 130 tends to make the lever actuation device 130 move backward and drag along the upper arm 120 of the lever by means of the return portion 138, which is still located in front of the pin 302.
  • the inertia of lever actuation device 130 compensates the inertia of the lower arm 122 and weight 124 and prevents the lever 118 from reaching its unblocking position. Opening of the panel 104 is therefore prevented.
