Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einer Karosserie, einer Tür und einer Scharnieranordnung für die Tür mit einer Viergelenkkinematik, die einen ersten Lenker und einen zweiten Lenker aufweist. Die DE 199 14 935 A1 zeigt ein gattunsgemäßes Kraftfahrzeug mit einer Scharnieranordnung.The present invention relates to a motor vehicle with a body, a door and a hinge arrangement for the door with four-bar kinematics, which has a first link and a second link. The DE 199 14 935 A1 shows a generic motor vehicle with a hinge arrangement.

Beispielsweise ist aus der DE 19930328 C1 eine Türanlenkung für eine Tür eines Kraftfahrzeugs bekannt, bei der die Tür durch ein Viergelenkgetriebe gegenüber einer Türsäule in einer von einer Schwenkbewegung überlagerten Querbewegung verlagerbar ist. Das Viergelenkgetriebe weist insbesondere ein Tragarm und eine Steuerstange auf, die jeweils einerseits an der Türsäule und andererseits an der Tür angelenkt sind.For example, from the DE 19930328 C1 a door linkage for a door of a motor vehicle is known, in which the door can be displaced by a four-bar mechanism relative to a door pillar in a transverse movement superimposed by a pivoting movement. The four-bar transmission has in particular a support arm and a control rod, which are each articulated on the one hand on the door pillar and on the other hand on the door.

Ebenso zeigt die Offenlegungsschrift DE 102013007876 A1 eine Fahrzeugtüranordnung mit zwei hintereinander angeordneten Schwenkarmen, die als Viergelenk ausgebildet sind. Mittels der beiden Schwenkarme ist die Tür nach hinten schwenkbar.The publication also shows DE 102013007876 A1 a vehicle door arrangement with two pivot arms arranged one behind the other, which are designed as a four-bar linkage. The door can be swiveled backwards using the two swivel arms.

Derartige Türen, die über ein Viergelenk verschwenkbar sind, haben eine andere Bewegungsbahn als eine Tür, die um lediglich eine tatsächliche Gelenkachse verschwenkbar ist. Ferner besteht bei hintereinander angeordneten Türen, die aneinander angrenzen und gegenläufig geöffnet werden können, das Problem, das zumindest eine der beiden Türen nicht unabhängig von einer Öffnung der anderen Tür geöffnet werden kann. Beispielsweise ist ein Fahrzeug bekannt, bei dem eine Vordertür an einer A-Säule des Kraftfahrzeugs über eine einzige reelle Schwenkachse angelenkt ist und eine angrenzend dahinter angeordnete Hintertür an einer C-Säule des Kraftfahrzeugs über eine einzige reelle Schwenkachse angelenkt ist, wobei das Kraftfahrzeug keine B-Säule aufweist. Eine hintere Kante der Vordertür überlappt dabei einen vorderen Abschnitt der Hintertür. Die Hintertür kann bei dieser Anordnung nur geöffnet werden, wenn die Vordertür geöffnet ist.Such doors, which can be pivoted via a four-bar linkage, have a different path of movement than a door which can only be pivoted about an actual link axis. Furthermore, in the case of doors arranged one behind the other, which adjoin one another and can be opened in opposite directions, there is the problem that at least one of the two doors cannot be opened independently of an opening of the other door. For example, a vehicle is known in which a Front door is articulated on an A pillar of the motor vehicle via a single real pivot axis and an adjoining rear door is articulated on a C pillar of the motor vehicle via a single real pivot axis, the motor vehicle having no B pillar. A rear edge of the front door overlaps a front section of the rear door. With this arrangement, the rear door can only be opened when the front door is open.

Es ist die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einer Karosserie, einer Tür und einer Scharnieranordnung für die Tür mit einer Viergelenksanordnung zu schaffen, wobei ein Öffnen der Tür ohne Eingriff mit einem angrenzenden Element ermöglicht ist, selbst wenn die Tür das angrenzende Element hintergreift, d.h. hinterschneidet.It is the object of the present invention to provide a motor vehicle with a body, a door and a hinge arrangement for the door with a four-bar arrangement, wherein the door can be opened without engagement with an adjacent element, even if the door engages behind the adjacent element , ie undercuts.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Kraftfahrzeug mit einer Karosserie, einer Tür und einer Scharnieranordnung für eine Tür gelöst, das die Merkmale von Patentanspruch 1 aufweist. Bevorzugte Weiterbildungen sind in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen aufgeführt.This object is achieved by a motor vehicle with a body, a door and a hinge arrangement for a door, which has the features of patent claim 1. Preferred developments are listed in the dependent claims.

Das Kraftfahrzeug mit der Karosserie, der Tür und der Scharnieranordnung gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung hat eine Viergelenkanordnung, d.h. eine Viergelenkkinematik, die zumindest einen ersten Lenker und einen zweiten Lenker aufweist. Der erste Lenker ist über ein türfestes, insbesondere ortsfestes, Türgelenk des ersten Lenkers um eine Drehachse schwenkbar mit der Tür verbunden und ist über ein karosseriefestes, insbesondere ortsfestes, Karosseriegelenk des ersten Lenkers um eine Drehachse schwenkbar mit der Karosserie verbunden, d.h. an der Karosserie gelagert. Der zweite Lenker ist über ein Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers um eine Drehachse schwenkbar mit der Tür verbunden und ist über ein Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers um eine Drehachse schwenkbar mit der Karosserie verbunden. Zumindest das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers oder das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers ist verschiebbar gelagert. Dies bedeutet, dass das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers gegenüber der Tür bzw. gegenüber dem zweiten Lenker verschiebbar gelagert ist und/oder das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers gegenüber der Karosserie bzw. gegenüber dem zweiten Lenker verschiebbar gelagert ist.The motor vehicle with the body, the door and the hinge arrangement according to the present invention has a four-bar arrangement, ie a four-bar kinematics, which has at least a first link and a second link. The first link is connected to the door via a door-fixed, in particular stationary, door joint of the first link pivotable about an axis of rotation and is connected to the body via a body-fixed, in particular stationary, body link of the first link pivotable about an axis of rotation, that is, mounted on the body . The second link is connected to the door via a door joint of the second link pivotable about an axis of rotation and is connected to the body via a body link of the second link pivotable about an axis of rotation. At least the door link of the second link or the body link of the second link is slidably mounted. This means that the door joint of the second link is slidably mounted relative to the door or relative to the second link and / or the body link of the second link is slidably mounted relative to the body or relative to the second link.

Hierdurch ist es mit einfachen Mitteln möglich eine Bewegungsbahn der Tür entsprechend einer gewünschten Bewegungsbahn zu verändern. Insbesondere ist hierdurch eine translatorische Bewegung der Tür, durch das verschiebbare Gelenk des zweiten Lenkers mit der Schwenkbewegung, die durch das Viergelenk gebildet ist, überlagerbar. Hierdurch ist es beispielsweise auch möglich, eine Tür, die im geschlossenen Zustand ein benachbartes Karosserie- oder Karosserieklappenelement hinterschneidet, zu öffnen, ohne mit dem benachbarten Karosserieelement oder Karosserieklappenelement einzugreifen.This makes it possible with simple means to change a path of movement of the door in accordance with a desired path of movement. In particular, a translatory movement of the door can be superimposed by the displaceable joint of the second link with the pivoting movement which is formed by the four-bar linkage. This also makes it possible, for example, to open a door which undercuts an adjacent body or body flap element in the closed state without intervening with the adjacent body element or body flap element.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung ist der erste Lenker ausgebildet, eine Hauptlast der Tür zu tragen, und der zweite Lenker ist ausgebildet, das Viergelenk zu steuern.According to a preferred development, the first link is designed to bear a main load of the door, and the second link is designed to control the four-bar linkage.

Hierdurch kann der zweite Lenker leichter ausgeführt werden und insbesondere wird der zweite Lenker, der über ein verschiebbares Türgelenk oder Karosseriegelenk verfügt nicht durch die Last der Tür beansprucht, wohingegen der erste Lenker, der ortsfeste Gelenke aufweist, daher mit einfachen Mitteln als hauptlasttragender Lenker ausgeführt werden kann. Hierdurch ist insbesondere auch ein größerer Freiheitsgrad bei der Anordnung des zweiten Lenkers möglich.As a result, the second link can be made lighter, and in particular the second link, which has a sliding door joint or body link, is not stressed by the load of the door, whereas the first link, which has fixed joints, can therefore be designed as a main load-bearing link with simple means can. This in particular also allows a greater degree of freedom in the arrangement of the second link.

Erfindungsgemäß ist eine Länge des zweiten Lenkers veränderbar, so dass ein Abstand zwischen dem Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers und dem Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers veränderbar ist. Hierdurch ist zumindest das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers durch die Längenveränderlichkeit des zweiten Lenkers verschiebbar ausgebildet.According to the invention, a length of the second link can be changed so that a distance between the door joint of the second link and the body link of the second link can be changed. As a result, at least the door joint of the second link is designed to be displaceable due to the variable length of the second link.

Eine Längenänderung des zweiten Lenkers lässt sich einfach über beispielsweise eine teleskopartige Ausbildung des zweiten Lenkers ausführen.A change in length of the second link can be easily carried out, for example, by a telescopic design of the second link.

Alternativ ist erfindungsgemäß das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers an der Karosserie in einer Karosserieführungsbahn verschiebbar gelagert. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann das Türgelenk des zweiten Lagers an der Tür in einer Türführungsbahn verschiebbar gelagert sein.Alternatively, according to the invention, the door joint of the second link is slidably mounted on the body in a body guideway. In addition or alternatively, the door joint of the second bearing can be slidably mounted on the door in a door guideway.

Weiterhin kann das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers an dem zweiten Lenker in einer Führungsbahn verschiebbar gelagert sein. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers an dem zweiten Lenker in einer Führungsbahn verschiebbar gelagert sein.Furthermore, the body link of the second link can be slidably mounted on the second link in a guideway. Additionally or alternatively, the door joint of the second link can be slidably mounted on the second link in a guideway.

Hierdurch ist es mit einfachen Mitteln möglich, eine Verschiebbarkeit des Türgelenks bzw. des Karosseriegelenks des zweiten Lenkers zu verwirklichen.As a result, it is possible with simple means to realize a displaceability of the door joint or the body joint of the second link.

Weiterhin ist erfindungsgemäß der zweite Lenker derart gelagert und in Bezug zu dem ersten Lenker angeordnet, dass das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers und/oder das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers in einer Anfangsphase eines Türöffnens und/oder einer Endphase eines Türschließens die Verschiebebewegung durchführen/durchführt.Furthermore, according to the invention, the second link is mounted and arranged in relation to the first link in such a way that the body link of the second link and / or the door link of the second link carry out the displacement movement in an initial phase of opening a door and / or an end phase of closing a door.

Insbesondere kann eine Kulissenführung vorgesehen sein, die eine Verschiebung des Karosseriegelenks bzw. des Türgelenks des zweiten Lenkers in der Anfangsphase bzw. der Endphase der Verschiebebewegung erzwingt.In particular, a link guide can be provided, which forces a displacement of the body joint or the door joint of the second link in the initial phase or the final phase of the displacement movement.

Ferner weist die Scharnieranordnung erfindungsgemäß eine Rastanordnung auf, die angepasst ist, das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers und/oder das Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers zu verrasten, so dass nach der Anfangsphase des Türöffnens und/oder der Endphase des Türschließens die Verschiebebewegung unterbunden ist.Furthermore, the hinge arrangement according to the invention has a latching arrangement which is adapted to latch the body link of the second link and / or the door link of the second link, so that after the initial phase of opening the door and / or the final phase of closing the door, the displacement movement is prevented.

Hierdurch ist das Karosseriegelenk bzw. das Türgelenkt des zweiten Lenkers außerhalb der Anfangsphase/Endphase ortsfest ausgebildet. Ferner ist eine sichere und definierte Öffnungsbahn der Tür trotz verschiebbaren Karosseriegelenk bzw. Türgelenk des zweiten Lenkers zuverlässig sichergestellt.As a result, the body link or the door link of the second link is designed to be stationary outside the initial phase / final phase. Furthermore, a safe and defined opening path of the door is reliably ensured despite the movable body joint or door joint of the second handlebar.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Kraftfahrzeugs mit Scharnieranordnung ist das Karosseriegelenk des zweiten Lenkers an einem Längsträger angebracht. Der Längsträger kann beispielsweise ein Karosserieschweller oder Dachrahmen sein, d.h. ein Karosserieelement, das sich im Bereich eines oberen bzw. unteren Endes der Tür befindet. Hierdurch ist eine stabile Lagerung des zweiten Lenkers möglich und der zweite Lenker kann beabstandet zu dem ersten Lenker angebracht sein.According to a preferred development of the motor vehicle according to the invention with a hinge arrangement, the body link of the second link is on one Side members attached. The side member can be, for example, a body sill or roof frame, ie a body element that is located in the area of an upper or lower end of the door. This enables stable mounting of the second link and the second link can be mounted at a distance from the first link.

Gemäß einer weiteren Weiterbildung der Scharnieranordnung ist das Karosseriegelenk des ersten Lenkers an einem horizontal verlaufenden Träger angebracht. Der horizontal verlaufende Träger kann beispielsweise eine Türsäule, insbesondere eine C-Säule der Fahrgastzelle sein, die eine hintere Säule eines Fahrgastraums darstellt.According to a further development of the hinge arrangement, the body link of the first link is attached to a horizontally extending support. The horizontally extending support can be, for example, a door pillar, in particular a C pillar of the passenger compartment, which represents a rear pillar of a passenger compartment.

Insbesondere in dem Fall, in dem der erste Lenker eine Hauptlast der Tür trägt, ist die Anbindung des ersten Lenkers an einem horizontal verlaufenden Träger besonders sinnvoll. Ferner kann hierdurch der erste Lenker beispielsweise mittig in Bezug auf eine Türhochrichtung angebracht werden, was hinsichtlich einer stabilen momentengerechten Lagerung der Tür vorteilhaft ist. In dem Fall, in dem der zweite Lenker an einem Längsträger angeordnet ist, kann der erste Lenker in X-Richtung beabstandet von dem zweiten Lenker angeordnet sein und ebenso kann der erste Lenker in eine Fahrzeughochrichtung, d.h. eine Z-Richtung, beabstandet zu dem zweiten Lenker ausgebildet sein. Dies ermöglicht eine besonders stabile Lagerung der Tür und kann es ermöglichen die Tür nur mit dem ersten Lenker und dem zweiten Lenker zu lagern.In particular, in the case in which the first link bears a main load of the door, the connection of the first link to a horizontally extending support is particularly useful. Furthermore, this allows the first link to be attached, for example, centrally in relation to a door vertical direction, which is advantageous with regard to stable, torque-appropriate storage of the door. In the case where the second link is arranged on a side member, the first link can be arranged in the X direction at a distance from the second link, and likewise the first link can be arranged in a vehicle vertical direction, i.e. a Z direction, spaced apart from the second link. This enables a particularly stable mounting of the door and can make it possible to store the door only with the first handlebar and the second handlebar.

Bevorzugt ist bei der Scharnieranordnung der erste Lenker in einem Nassbereich der Fahrzeugkarosserie, d.h. außerhalb eines Türdichtungsbereichs / einer Türdichtung, angebracht. Vorteilhaft befindet sich dabei der erste Lenker im geschlossenen Zustand der Tür vollständig außerhalb des Türdichtungsbereichs, d.h. der erste Lenker kreuzt den Türdichtungsbereich bzw. die Türdichtung nicht. Zusätzlich oder alternativ kann der zweite Lenker in einem Nassbereich der Fahrzeugkarosserie angebracht sein. Vorteilhaft befindet sich dabei der zweite Lenker im geschlossenen Zustand der Tür vollständig außerhalb des Türdichtungsbereichs, d.h. der erste Lenker kreuzt den Türdichtungsbereich nicht. Hierdurch ist zum Einen eine erhöhte Dichtigkeit des Türdichtungsbereichs ermöglicht und zum Anderen eine flexiblere Ausgestaltung der Kinematik der Tür. Eine Kreuzung der Türdichtung mit einem der Lenker im geschlossenen Zustand der Tür kann eine Dichtwirkung der Türdichtung herabsetzen.In the hinge arrangement, the first link is preferably installed in a wet area of the vehicle body, ie outside a door seal area / door seal. In the closed state of the door, the first link is advantageously located completely outside the door seal area, ie the first link does not cross the door seal area or the door seal. Additionally or alternatively, the second link can be installed in a wet area of the vehicle body. In the closed state of the door, the second link is advantageously located completely outside the door seal area, ie the first link does not cross the door seal area. This enables on the one hand increased tightness of the door sealing area and on the other hand a more flexible design of the kinematics of the door. Crossing the door seal with one of the handlebars when the door is closed can reduce the sealing effect of the door seal.

Mit dem Begriff "Türdichtungsbereich" ist insbesondere ein Bereich bezeichnet, der eine Türhauptdichtung ausweist, die ein Eindringen von Wasser in den Fahrzeuginnenraum unterbindet.The term “door seal area” denotes in particular an area which has a main door seal which prevents water from penetrating into the vehicle interior.

Alternativ kann der erste Lenker auch den Türdichtungsbereich kreuzen, so dass der erste Lenker länger ausgeführt sein kann. Ein längerer erster Lenker ermöglicht ein weiteres Aufschwenken der Tür und ermöglicht damit eine größere Türöffnung.Alternatively, the first link can also cross the door seal area, so that the first link can be made longer. A longer first handlebar allows the door to be swung open further and thus enables a larger door opening.

Das Kraftfahrzeug kann eine vordere Tür und eine angrenzend dahinter angeordnete hintere Tür aufweisen, wobei die vordere Tür schwenkbar an einer vorderen Karosseriesäule angebracht ist und die hintere Tür über die Scharnieranordnung schwenkbar an einer hinteren Karosseriesäule gelagert ist.The motor vehicle can have a front door and a rear door arranged adjacently behind it, the front door being pivotably attached to a front body pillar and the rear door being pivotably mounted on a rear body pillar via the hinge arrangement.

Bevorzugt hat das Kraftfahrzeug keine Karosseriesäule zwischen der vorderen Karosseriesäule und der hinteren Karosseriesäule, d.h. keine sogenannte B-Säule.Preferably the motor vehicle has no body pillar between the front body pillar and the rear body pillar, i.e. no so-called B-pillar.

In diesem Fall ist es erforderlich, dass sich die vordere Tür und die hintere Tür einander dichtend überlappen. Die Scharnieranordnung der hinteren Tür ermöglicht es dabei, dass die hintere Tür, deren vordere Kante eine hintere Kante der vorderen Tür hintergreift oder unterlappt, geöffnet werden kann, ohne dass die vordere Tür geöffnet werden muss. Grundsätzlich ist jedoch auch eine umgekehrte Anordnung möglich, bei der die vordere Tür über die Scharnieranordnung gelagert ist und eine vordere Kante der hinteren Tür hintergreift/unterlappt.In this case, it is necessary that the front door and the rear door overlap each other. The hinge arrangement of the rear door enables the rear door, the front edge of which engages behind or underlaps a rear edge of the front door, to be opened without the front door having to be opened. In principle, however, an inverted arrangement is also possible, in which the front door is supported by the hinge arrangement and engages behind / underlaps a front edge of the rear door.

Bevorzugt ist eine Türschlossvorrichtung über dem ersten Lenker und dem zweiten Lenker angeordnet.A door lock device is preferably arranged above the first link and the second link.

Vorstehend aufgeführte Weiterbildungen des Kraftfahrzeugs mit der Scharnieranordnung können beliebig miteinander kombiniert werden, soweit dies technisch sinnvoll und möglich ist.The above-mentioned developments of the motor vehicle with the hinge arrangement can be combined with one another as desired, insofar as this is technically sensible and possible.

Im Folgenden ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung in Einzelheiten unter Bezugnahme auf Figuren 1 bis 4 beschrieben.The following is an embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to FIG Figures 1 to 4 described.

Gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung hat ein Kraftfahrzeug eine vordere Tür 9 und eine hintere Tür 1. Die hintere Tür 1 ist angrenzend an die vordere Tür 9 angeordnet, wobei das Kraftfahrzeug keine B-Säule aufweist. Die hintere Tür 1 ist insbesondere durch eine Scharnieranordnung mit einer Viergelenkkinematik verschwenkbar gelagert. Die Viergelenkkinematik weist einen ersten Lenker 3 auf, der als eine Hauptlast der Tür tragender Lenker ausgebildet ist.According to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, a motor vehicle has a front door 9 and a rear door 1. The rear door 1 is arranged adjacent to the front door 9, the motor vehicle having no B-pillar. The rear door 1 is pivotally mounted in particular by a hinge arrangement with four-bar kinematics. The four-bar linkage has a first link 3, which is designed as a main load of the door-carrying link.

Der erste Lenker 3 ist über ein ortsfestes türseitiges Türgelenk 31 gelenkig mit der Tür 1 verbunden und ist über ein ortsfestes karosserieseitiges Karosseriegelenk 32 gelenkig mit einer Karosserie 7 verbunden. Der erste Lenker 3 hat eine derartig gebogene Form, so dass er bei einem Verschwenken der Tür 1 nicht mit der Karosserie 7 des Kraftfahrzeugs eingreift. Der zweite Lenker 5 ist über ein türseitiges Türgelenk 51 gelenkig mit der Tür 1 verbunden und ist über ein karosserieseitiges Karosseriegelenk 52 gelenkig mit der Karosserie 7 verbunden. Der zweite Lenker 5 ist in seiner Länge veränderbar ausgeführt, wobei der Lenker 5 insbesondere zusammengeschoben und auseinander gezogen werden kann. Hierdurch ist eine Lage des Türgelenks des zweiten Lenkers 5 und des Karosseriegelenks 52 des zweiten Lenkers 5 im Bezug zueinander verschiebbar angeordnet. Insbesondere sind die Gelenke 51 und 52 durch den längenveränderlichen ersten Lenker 5 translatorisch zueinander verschiebbar ausgebildet. Alternativ kann das Karosseriegelenk 52 des zweiten Lenkers 5 auch in einem Langloch oder dergleichen in der Karosserie geführt sein, so dass das Karosseriegelenk 52 des zweiten Lenkers 5 verschiebbar ausgebildet ist. Gemäß einer anderen Alternative kann das Türgelenk 51 in einer Führung der Tür 1 verschiebbar ausgeführt sein. Obwohl es in der Figur nicht dargestellt ist, kann eine hintere Kante der vorderen Tür 9 eine vordere Kante der hinteren Tür 1 überlappen und eine Fahrzeugaußenseite zu einem Fahrgastraum abdichten.The first link 3 is connected in an articulated manner to the door 1 via a fixed door-side door joint 31 and is connected in an articulated manner to a body 7 via a fixed body-side body link 32. The first link 3 has such a curved shape that it does not engage the body 7 of the motor vehicle when the door 1 is pivoted. The second link 5 is articulatedly connected to the door 1 via a door-side door joint 51 and is articulatedly connected to the body 7 via a body-side body articulation 52. The length of the second link 5 can be changed, whereby the link 5 can in particular be pushed together and pulled apart. As a result, a position of the door joint of the second link 5 and the body link 52 of the second link 5 is arranged so as to be displaceable with respect to one another. In particular, the joints 51 and 52 are designed to be translationally displaceable relative to one another by the variable length first link 5. Alternatively, the body link 52 of the second link 5 can also be guided in an elongated hole or the like in the body, so that the body link 52 of the second link 5 is designed to be displaceable. According to another alternative, the door joint 51 can be designed to be displaceable in a guide for the door 1. Although not shown in the figure, a rear edge of the front door 9 may overlap a front edge of the rear door 1 and seal an outside of the vehicle to a passenger compartment.

Sowohl der erste Lenker 3 als auch der zweite Lenker 5 können in einem Nassbereich außerhalb einer nicht gezeigten Haupttürdichtung, die die Tür 1 gegenüber der Karosserie 7 abdichtet und den Innenraum vor eindringender Nässe und Schmutz schützt, angeordnet sein.Both the first link 3 and the second link 5 can be arranged in a wet area outside a main door seal, not shown, which seals the door 1 against the body 7 and protects the interior from the ingress of moisture and dirt.

Nachstehend ist unter Bezugnahme auf Figuren 2 bis 4 eine Funktion und Kinematik der Scharnieranordnung der Tür 1 gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher erläutert.The following is with reference to Figures 2 to 4 a function and kinematics of the hinge arrangement of the door 1 according to the embodiment of the invention explained in more detail.

Figur 2 zeigt eine Anfangsphase eines Öffnens der Tür 1, wobei der erste Lenker 3 um das Karosseriegelenk 32 leicht verschwenkt ist und gleichzeitig eine Länge des zweiten Lenkers 5 durch Zusammenschieben des zweiten Lenkers 5 verkürzt ist, so dass das Türgelenk 51 des zweiten Lenkers 5 in Richtung des Karosseriegelenks 52 des zweiten Lenkers 5 verschoben ist. Hierdurch ist, bevor der zweite Lenker 5 um das Karosseriegelenk 52 des zweiten Lenkers 5 verschwenkt wird, die Tür in Fahrzeuglängsrichtung, d.h. in x-Richtung im Fahrzeugkoordinatensystem, verschoben, so dass sich eine vordere Kante der Tür 1 von der vorderen Tür 9 entfernt. Hierdurch wird die vorderen Kante der Tür 1 bei einem Öffnen der Tür von der vorderen Tür 9 wegbewegt, so dass ein Eingriff beider Türen 1, 9 vermieden ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, dass die hintere Tür 1 bei geschlossener Tür 9 geöffnet werden kann. Figure 2 shows an initial phase of opening the door 1, wherein the first link 3 is pivoted slightly about the body joint 32 and at the same time a length of the second link 5 is shortened by pushing the second link 5 together, so that the door joint 51 of the second link 5 in the direction of Body joint 52 of the second link 5 is shifted. As a result, before the second link 5 is pivoted about the body link 52 of the second link 5, the door is displaced in the vehicle longitudinal direction, ie in the x direction in the vehicle coordinate system, so that a front edge of the door 1 moves away from the front door 9. As a result, the front edge of the door 1 is moved away from the front door 9 when the door is opened, so that an engagement of both doors 1, 9 is avoided. This makes it possible for the rear door 1 to be opened when the door 9 is closed.

In Figur 3 ist ein weiterer Verlauf eines Öffnens der Tür 1 gezeigt, wobei sich der zweite Lenker 5 weiter in einem zusammengeschobenen Zustand befindet und in diesem Zustand durch eine geeignete nicht dargestellte Rastvorrichtung oder dergleichen fixiert ist. Hierdurch wird die Tür 1 durch die Viergelenkanordnung, die aus dem ersten Lenker 3 und dem zweiten Lenker 5 und den Gelenken 51, 52, 31, 32 gebildet ist, geöffnet. Die Rastvorrichtung kann über eine nicht gezeigte Kulissenführung steuerbar sein, wodurch bei einer bestimmten Position des Lenkers / der Tür die Rastvorrichtung einrastet bzw. gelöst wird.In Figure 3 A further course of opening the door 1 is shown, the second link 5 being further in a pushed-together state and being fixed in this state by a suitable latching device or the like, not shown. As a result, the door 1 is opened by the four-bar arrangement, which is formed from the first link 3 and the second link 5 and the joints 51, 52, 31, 32. The latching device can be controllable via a link guide, not shown, whereby the latching device engages or disengages when the handlebar / door is in a certain position.

Figur 4 zeigt schließlich einen vollständig geöffneten Zustand der Tür 1, der einen Zugang zu hinteren Sitzplätzen des Kraftfahrzeugs bei geschlossener Vordertür 9 ermöglicht. Figure 4 shows finally a fully open state of the door 1, which allows access to the rear seats of the motor vehicle with the front door 9 closed.

Ein Schließen der Tür 1 erfolgt entsprechend dem in Figuren 1 bis 4 dargestelltem Öffnen in umgekehrter Reihenfolge von der in Figur 4 dargestellten vollständig Position der Viergelenkanordnung mit der Tür 1 bis hin zur in Figur 1 dargestellten vollständig geschlossenen Position der Viergelenkanordnung mit der Tür 1.Door 1 is closed in accordance with the in Figures 1 to 4 shown opening in reverse order from the in Figure 4 shown completely position of the four-bar arrangement with the door 1 to in Figure 1 shown fully closed position of the four-bar arrangement with the door 1.
