Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing a rear plate of a motor vehicle lock according to the preamble of claim 1 and to a motor vehicle lock with a rear plate, which has been produced according to a method above, according to the preamble of claim 9.
  • the motor vehicle lock in question finds application in all types of closure elements of a motor vehicle. These include in particular side doors, rear doors, tailgates, trunk lids or hoods. In principle, these closure elements can also be designed in the manner of sliding doors. It has the usual closing elements latch and pawl, which are supported by a rear plate.
  • the latch of the motor vehicle lock in question can be brought into a closed position in which it is in holding engagement with a closing wedge or the like.
  • the latch can also be brought into an open position in which it releases the latch wedge or the like.
  • the pawl serves to lock the latch in the respective closed position. To release the lock latch, the pawl can be lifted into an excavated position.
  • the latch and the pawl are pivotally mounted on the rear panel of the motor vehicle lock. Regularly appropriate bearing domes are provided on the rear panel for this purpose. Correspondingly, high forces act on the bearing dome via the latch and the pawl, so that the mechanical stability of the back plate is of particular importance.
  • the back plate is brought by cold forming, for example by bending or stamping, in the desired shape.
  • the entire sheet metal blank is designed in relatively high sheet thickness. This is associated with high production costs, in particular material costs.
  • the invention is based on the problem, the known method for producing a rear plate of a motor vehicle lock in such a way and further develop that the manufacturing costs are reduced with unchanged high mechanical stability.
  • the rear plate blank is cold-formed in such a way that at least one thickened edge region with locally increased sheet thickness is produced by displacement of material from at least one storage region of the rear plate blank.
  • the sheet thickness of the back plate blank can be reduced to a minimum required sheet thickness, the areas are generated with locally increased sheet thickness by material thickening. Due to the fact that the back plate blank is based on a sheet with a relatively small sheet thickness, the production costs, in particular the material costs, can be significantly reduced.
  • Another advantageous effect of the proposed solution is the fact that with the proposed material thickening always a work hardening of the respective areas is accompanied, so that the mechanical stability of the proposed rear panel with a suitable design may even be higher than in a rear panel produced by the known method.
  • the rear plate blank has an increased output surface, so that correspondingly additional material for the material thickening is available.
  • it is in the storage area, is shifted from the material for the material thickening, is such an area, which is anyway free of material in the later, finished rear panel.
  • the storage area in the finished rear bend is a hole into which the respective bearing dome for lock catch and pawl is inserted.
  • the thickened edge area runs in a preferred variant according to claim 3 in a circle around the storage area.
  • Particularly advantageous is the fact that the material displacement over a particularly small displacement distance is required.
  • a pointed forming punch is driven into the storage area of the rear plate blank as part of the material thickening, which already prepares the production of the hole required for the bearing dome.
  • the driving of the pointed punch preferably followed by a perforation according to claim 5, so that the resulting hole receives a predefined shape.
  • the particular circular, locally thickened edge region can form a bearing surface for the mounting of a closing element.
  • the surface of the thickened edge region is formed by cold forming in a defined pressing surface. On a face milling o. The like. Of the thickened edge region can be dispensed with.
  • the rear plate of the motor vehicle lock which carries the closing elements latch and pawl, is produced in a proposal according to the above-explained method.
  • FIG. 1 shows, inter alia, the rear plate 1 of a proposed motor vehicle lock 2.
  • Fig. 1 includes only those components of the proposed motor vehicle lock 2, which are required for the explanation of the proposed teaching. Accordingly, the illustration in accordance Fig. 1 only the rear plate 1 and the locking elements shown in dashed lines lock latch 3 and pawl 4 and the associated striker 2a.
  • the finished rear plate 1 is in the Fig. 1 and 6 illustrated, while the rear plate blank 1a, from which the rear plate 1 is prepared, the representations according to the Fig. 2 to 5 can be seen.
  • the finished rear plate 1 carries in the assembled state, the closing elements lock latch 3 and pawl. 4
  • Essential for the proposed method for producing the back plate 1 is the process step resulting from the transition from Fig. 2 on Fig. 3 results.
  • the sheet metal blank 1a is cold-formed in such a way that at least one thickened edge region 6 with locally increased sheet thickness D is produced by displacement of material from at least one stock area 5 of the sheet metal blank 1a.
  • the higher sheet thickness D compared to the smaller sheet thickness d of the surrounding area results, for example, from the illustration in FIG Fig. 5 ,
  • the rear panel 1 is assigned a total of two storage areas 5, 5 ', each with locally thickened edge areas 6, 6'.
  • Fig. 1 right storage area 5 Only the in Fig. 1 right storage area 5 explained. All explanations apply to the Fig. 1 left storage area 5 'accordingly.
  • Fig. 1 and 6 it can be a synopsis of Fig. 1 and 6 infer that the storage area 5 of the finished rear panel 1 is free of material. This means, as will be explained, that the material in the storage area 5 of the sheet metal blank 1a can be used for the proposed material thickening without having to provide additional material, for example by providing an enlarged sheet metal blank 1a.
  • FIG. 1 . 5 and 6 A synopsis of Fig. 1 . 5 and 6 shows that the thickened edge region 6 extends along the storage area 5, ie in the narrower sense forms the edge of the storage area 5. Since the thickened edge region 6 is assigned in a manner yet to be explained to the bearing of the latch 3 or pawl 4, it is preferably such that the thickened edge region 6, here and preferably in a circle, runs around the reservoir region 5.
  • Fig. 2 on Fig. 3 shows that the thickened edge region 6 is preferably produced by cold forming when driving a pointed, an upper tool 14a associated forming punch 7 in the storage area 5 of the sheet metal blank 1a.
  • the upper tool 14a is associated with a lower tool 15a, which is designed substantially flat except for one of the tip of the forming punch 7 corresponding shape.
  • Fig. 3 shows, that This can already prepare the production of a hole in the storage area 5.
  • Fig. 5 shows a process step, in any case, the process step resulting from the transition of Fig. 2 on Fig. 3 results, is downstream.
  • a hole 8 is produced in the storage area 5 of the rear sheet blank 1a after the production of the thickened edge area 6. It is conceivable here that the hole 8 is drilled or milled. In a particularly preferred embodiment, however, the hole 8 is produced by perforation, that is, by a cutting step. Accordingly, here a punch 9 is driven into the sheet metal blank 1a, which is part of an upper tool 14c.
  • the upper tool 14c is associated with a provided with a circular shape lower tool 15c.
  • the hole edges of the hole 8 are chamfered by cold forming on one side or two sides.
  • the chamfering can be produced by corresponding chamfering tools 10, 11, which can also be part of the above-mentioned pointed forming punch 7.
  • FIG. 4 shown upper tool 14b is further configured such that prior to the above punching the surface of the thickened edge portion 6 is formed by cold forming when driving a further punch 16 in a defined, in particular flat, pressing surface 17.
  • the thickened edge region 6 is flattened by means of the further forming punch 16.
  • the pressing surface 17 is best shown in FIG Fig. 5 refer to.
  • the defined pressing surface 17 is a bearing surface with a high bearing component, as will be explained below. Accordingly, the defined pressing surface 17 in a particularly preferred embodiment is flat or conical.
  • a bearing dome 18 is inserted into the hole 8, which is here and preferably a bearing dome 18, which is associated with one of the closing elements latch 3 and pawl 4.
  • a compression and / or riveting of the bearing dome 18 is preferably provided.
  • Other mounting options for the bearing dome 18 are conceivable.
  • At least one closing element 3, 4 is mounted on an associated bearing dome 18 which is fixed in a hole 8 which is surrounded by a thickened edge region 6.
  • both closing elements lock latch 3 and pawl 4 are mounted on a respective bearing dome 18, 18 ', the two bearing domes 18, 18' being respectively fixed in a hole 8 surrounded by a thickened edge area 6, 6 '.
  • the surface of the respective edge region 6, 6 ' is configured as a pressing surface 17, 17' and is plane-parallel to a surface 4a, here a bearing surface 4a, the associated closing element 3, 4 aligned.
  • An abrading machining of the pressing surfaces 17, 17 ' can be dispensed with by the method according to the present invention in an advantageous manner.
  • a pressing surface 17, 17 'produced by pressing can readily be produced with a carrying proportion of more than 70%, in particular more than 80%, so that such pressing surfaces are particularly suitable as sliding bearing surfaces.
