Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schlossanordnung eines zu öffnenden Karosserieelements einer Fahrzeugkarosserie, insbesondere einer Frontklappe, mit einem an der Fahrzeugkarosserie anordenbaren Schließkasten mit einem ersten Schließmittel und einem an dem Karosserieelement anordenbaren zweiten Schließmittel, wobei der Schließkasten an der Fahrzeugkarosserie bewegbar halterbar ist und an dem Schließkasten eine Abstützung vorgesehen ist, mittels der beim Schließen der Schlossanordnung der Schließkasten an der Fahrzeugkarosserie von dem Karosserieelement bewegbar ist. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung eine Verwendung einer solchen Schlossanordnung an einem Kraftfahrzeug. Darüber hinaus betrifft die Erfindung eine Fahrzeugkarosserie mit einer solchen Schlossanordnung.The invention relates to a lock arrangement of an openable body element of a vehicle body, in particular a front flap, with a lockable on the vehicle body lock box with a first closing means and an attachable to the body member second closing means, wherein the lock case on the vehicle body is movably halterbar and on the lock box a Support is provided, by means of which when closing the lock assembly of the lock case on the vehicle body of the body member is movable. Furthermore, the invention relates to a use of such a lock arrangement on a motor vehicle. Moreover, the invention relates to a vehicle body with such a lock assembly.
Schließanordnungen bzw. Schlösser der gattungsgemäßen Art werden im Fahrzeugbau verwendet, um beispielsweise eine schwenkbare Frontklappe eines Fahrzeugs zu verschließen und gegen unbeabsichtigtes Öffnen zu sichern.Locking arrangements or locks of the generic type are used in vehicle construction, for example, to close a hinged front flap of a vehicle and secure against unintentional opening.
Die jeweilige Schließanordnung ist unter der Frontklappe angeordnet und hält diese mittels eines Schließbügels an der Fahrzeugkarosserie, der an einem Schlosskasten mit Hilfe beispielsweise eines Schließhakens bzw. einer Drehfalle gehalten ist. Ist die Schließanordnung geschlossen, so umschließt der Schließhaken den Schließbügel und dieser ist in einem eng begrenzten Bereich gehalten. Dieser Bereich ist von jenen Lageabweichungen bestimmt, welche der Schließbügel, der Schlosskasten und der Schließhaken aufgrund der unvermeidbaren Toleranzen der verbauten Elemente aufweisen.The respective closing arrangement is arranged under the front flap and holds it by means of a striker to the vehicle body, which is held on a lock case by means of, for example, a closing hook or a rotary latch. If the closing arrangement is closed, then the closing hook encloses the striker and this is held in a narrowly limited area. This range is determined by those positional deviations, which have the striker, the lock case and the locking hook due to the unavoidable tolerances of the installed elements.
Bei derartigen Schließanordnungen muss der Schließbügel, damit der Schließhaken sicher einfallen kann, ca. 1,0 bis 1,5 mm tiefer in den Schließkasten eintauchen, als in seiner nachfolgenden, ausgeschwungenen Endlage. Damit ergibt sich insbesondere an einer Frontklappe beim Schließen ein Klappenunterstand gegenüber der Endlage, die auch als Konstruktionslage oder als kundenrelevante Lage bezeichnet wird.In such locking arrangements, the striker must, so that the lock hook can safely fall, about 1.0 to 1.5 mm deeper into the lock box, than in its subsequent, swung-out end position. This results in particular in a front flap when closing a flap shelter against the end position, which is also referred to as a design situation or as a customer-relevant situation.
Bei modernen Fahrzeugen wandert die Position der Schließanordnungen im Frontbereich immer weiter von der Frontklappenvorderkante nach hinten. Die für Scheinwerfer und Kühler erforderlichen Bauräume und vor allem ein erhöhter Unfallschutz bedingen diese Anpassungen. Für den Unfallschutz werden erhöhte Anforderungen an die Unfallsicherheit und insbesondere an den Schutz von an einem Unfall beteiligten Personen gestellt. Der Frontendbereich moderner Fahrzeuge wird daher gezielt "weich" gestaltet.In modern vehicles, the position of the closing arrangements in the front area moves further and further from the front flap leading edge to the rear. The installation space required for headlamps and radiators and, above all, increased accident protection necessitate these adjustments. For accident prevention, increased demands are placed on accident safety and, in particular, on the protection of persons involved in an accident. The front-end range of modern vehicles is therefore targeted "soft" designed.
Bei einem schwunghaften Schließen einer Frontklappe könnte es gegebenenfalls durch eine elastische Verformung der Frontklappe zu Beschädigungen an Bauteilen wie Scheinwerfern oder Lufteinlassgittern kommen.In the case of a swinging closing of a front flap, it could possibly be due to an elastic deformation of the front flap to damage components such as headlights or air intake grids.
Ferner zeigt die
Endlage bewegt. Dieses Bewegen ermöglicht eine große Varianz bei der Anordnung und Gestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Schlossanordnung selbst. Insbesondere kann diese besser auch weiter entfernt von der Frontklappenvorderkante an einem Kraftfahrzeug angeordnet werden.End position moves. This movement allows a large variance in the arrangement and design of the lock assembly according to the invention itself. In particular, this can be better arranged further away from the front flap leading edge on a motor vehicle.
Vorzugsweise ist ferner entsprechend das erste Schließmittel als ein Schließhaken gestaltet. Ferner ist bevorzugt das zweite Schließmittel als ein Schließbügel gestaltet.Preferably, furthermore, the first closing means is designed accordingly as a closing hook. Furthermore, the second closing means is preferably designed as a striker.
Die erfindungsgemäße Abstützung ist vorteilhaft selbst mit einem Pufferelement bzw. elastischen Bauelement gestaltet, an das das Karosserieelement beim Schließen der Schlossanordnung anschlägt. Das Pufferelement bildet vorzugsweise den Anschlagbereich bzw. die Anschlagfläche für das Karosserieelement. Mit dem Pufferelement ist das Anschlagen des Karosserieelements an der bewegbaren Abstützung des Schließkastens gedämpft und ferner ein gewisser Toleranzausgleich zwischen diesen Bauteilen insbesondere für deren Anordnung in der Endlage gewährleistet.The support according to the invention is advantageously designed even with a buffer element or elastic component to which the body element abuts when closing the lock assembly. The buffer element preferably forms the stop area or the stop surface for the body element. With the buffer element striking the body member is damped on the movable support of the lock box and also ensures a certain tolerance compensation between these components, especially for their arrangement in the final position.
Die Abstützung gemäß der Erfindung ist als ein vom Schließkasten ausgehender und zum zugehörigen Fahrzeugende hin auskragender Abstützarm gestaltet. Der Abstützarm stellt einen Hebel dar, der von dem sich schließenden Karosserieelement bewegt, insbesondere geschwenkt, wird. Die Schwenkbewegung ermöglicht eine besonders weite und besonders gut geführte Bremsbewegung für das Karosserieelement.The support according to the invention is designed as a outgoing from the lock case and projecting towards the associated vehicle end outriggers. The support arm is a lever which moves from the closing body element, in particular pivoted, is. The pivoting movement allows a particularly wide and particularly well-guided braking movement for the body element.
Der Schließkasten der erfindungsgemäßen Schließanordnung ist bevorzugt an der Fahrzeugkarosserie schwenkbar halterbar. Die schwenkbare Lagerung ermöglicht eine präzise Führung und Halterung des Schließkastens insbesondere in dessen Endlage. Ferner ist sie besonders funktional im Zusammenhang mit einem Schwenken der erfindungsgemäßen hebelartigen Abstützung. Zum schwenkbaren Haltern des Schließkastens an der Fahrzeugkarosserie ist bevorzugt ein Drehpunkt bzw. eine Schwenkachse vorsehbar, die sich in Längsrichtung des zugehörigen Fahrzeugs betrachtet zwischen dem zweiten Schließmittel und der Abstützung befindet. Mit einem derartigen Drehpunkt wird mit der letzten Bewegung des Karosserieelements der Schließkasten im Bereich von dessen erstem Schließmittel geringfügig angehoben. Das erste Schließmittel wird also dem zweiten Schließmittel entgegenbewegt. Diese Bewegung ist besonders vorteilhaft, damit das zweite Schließmittel sicher am ersten Schließmittel einhakt.The lock case of the closing arrangement according to the invention is preferably pivotally mountable on the vehicle body. The pivotal mounting allows precise guidance and mounting of the lock box, especially in its end position. Furthermore, it is particularly functional in connection with a pivoting of the lever-like support according to the invention. For pivotally supporting the closing box on the vehicle body, a pivot point or a pivot axis is preferably providable which, viewed in the longitudinal direction of the associated vehicle, is arranged between the second Closing means and the support is located. With such a pivot point, the lock case is slightly raised in the region of its first closing means with the last movement of the body element. The first closing means is thus moved counter to the second closing means. This movement is particularly advantageous for the second closure means to hook securely onto the first closure means.
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schlossanordnung ist ferner vorzugsweise der Schließkasten an einem Anschlag zurückhaltbar, wenn er sich bei geöffnetem Karosserieelement in seiner Ruhelage befindet. Der Anschlag schafft damit eine definierte Ruhelage für den Schließkasten und zugleich auch für die an diesem ausgebildete, hebelartige Abstützung.In the case of the lock arrangement according to the invention, furthermore, the lock case can preferably be retained on a stop when it is in its rest position when the body element is open. The stop thus creates a defined rest position for the lock case and at the same time also for the formed on this, lever-like support.
Besonders bevorzugt ist der Schließkasten in seine derartige Ruhelage federnd vorspannbar. Die federnde Vorspannung stellt sicher, dass der Schließkasten in seiner Ruhelage verbleibt, solange das Karosserieelement nicht geschlossen ist und bildet ferner eine Federung und Dämpfung für die Bewegung des Schließkastens zusammen mit seiner Abstützung aus dieser Ruhelage heraus. Mit der federnden Vorspannung, die bevorzugt mittels einer Schraubenfeder, einer Spiralfeder oder einem Elastomerelement geschaffen ist, ist also auch die Bewegung der Abstützung selbst gedämpft.Particularly preferably, the lock case is resiliently biased in its rest position. The resilient bias ensures that the lock remains in its rest position as long as the body member is not closed and also forms a suspension and damping for the movement of the lock box together with its support from this rest position. With the resilient bias, which is preferably created by means of a coil spring, a coil spring or an elastomer element, so also the movement of the support itself is damped.
Die Erfindung ist ferner entsprechend auch gezielt auf eine Verwendung einer solchen erfindungsgemäßen Schlossanordnung zum Verschließen der Frontklappe eines Kraftfahrzeugs gerichtet.The invention is also directed accordingly to a use of such a lock arrangement according to the invention for closing the front door of a motor vehicle.
Nachfolgend wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung anhand der beigefügten, schematischen Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigt:

In den
Der Schließkasten 16 ist an der Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 um einen Drehpunkt 24 in Gestalt einer Schwenkachse schwenkbar gelagert. Die Schwenkachse erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen waagrecht und quer zur Hauptfahrtrichtung des Kraftfahrzeugs. Ferner ist an der Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 ein Anschlag 26 aus einem starren Material vorgesehen, an dem der Schließkasten 16 in seiner in
An der am Fahrzeug nach vorne gewandten Seitenfläche des Schließkastens 16 ist ferner im unteren Bereich eine Abstützung 30 aus Metall, insbesondere Stahl, ortsfest angebracht, die vom Schließkasten 16 im Wesentlichen nach vorne und dann nach oben gerichtet absteht. Die Abstützung 30 ist in Gestalt eines Winkelstabes bzw. eines Hebels ausgebildet. Sie ist derart ortsfest, bevorzugt einteilig mit dem Schließkasten 16 verbunden, dass sich bei einem Bewegen der Abstützung 30 auch der Schließkasten 16 mitbewegt.At the vehicle side facing the front side surface of the lock box 16 a
Das bezogen auf das Kraftfahrzeug vordere, obere Ende der hebelförmigen Abstützung 30 ist mit einem Pufferelement 32 gestaltet, das mit einem Elastomerblock aus elastischem Material ausgebildet ist. Das Pufferelement 32 kommt an dem Karosserieelement 12 an einer Anschlagfläche 34 zum Anliegen, wenn das Karosserieelement 12 zum Schließen eine Senkbewegung 36 vollzieht.With respect to the motor vehicle front, upper end of the lever-shaped
Sobald das Karosserieelement 12 beim Schließen an dem Pufferelement 32 der Abstützung 30 angeschlagen ist, bewegt es diese bei seiner weiteren Senkbewegung 36 entgegen der Kraft des Federelements 28 nach unten. Dabei bewegt sich mit der Abstützung 30 auch der Schließkasten 16 mit und schwenkt um den Drehpunkt 24 vom Anschlag 26 weg. Während dieser Schwenkbewegung 38 des Schließkastens 16 taucht der Schließbügel 22 in die Schließöffnung 18 ein. Nach einem ausreichend tiefen Eintauchen des Schließbügels 22 schwenkt der Schließhaken 20 mit einer Schließbewegung 40 hinter den Schließbügel 22. Die Schlossanordnung 10 ist geschlossen. Zugleich ist aber auch das Pufferelement 32 der Abstützung 30 und mit ihm die gesamte Schlossanordnung 10 mittels des Federelements 28 mit einer Federkraft 42 weiterhin um den Drehpunkt 24 in Richtung zur Anschlagfläche 34 des Karosserieelements 12 hin gedrängt. Die Schlossanordnung 10 ist so zusätzlich am Karosserieelement 12 vorgespannt und auf diese Weise ist das Karosserieelement 12 zusätzlich vorteilhaft an der restlichen Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 schwingungsarm gehalten. Diese Endlage der Schlossanordnung 10 ist in
Da an den Bauteilen Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 und Karosserieelement 12 natürlich Toleranzen hinsichtlich deren Abmessungen zu verzeichnen sind, sind an der oben erläuterten Konstruktion diverse Ausgleichsmöglichkeiten für diese Toleranzen geschaffen. So kann der Schließkasten 16 relativ zur Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 eingestellt werden. Ferner kann der Schließbügel 22 relativ zum Karosserieelement 12 eingestellt werden. Darüber hinaus kann das Pufferelement 32 an der Abstützung 30 relativ zur Anschlagfläche 34 bzw. zum Karosserieelement 12 positionier werden. Schließlich wird auch eine (an sich bekannte) "Z-Einstellung" des Karosserieelements 12 zu einer Seitenwand der Fahrzeugkarosserie 14 notwendig sein.Since the
