Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an anti-pinch system for attachment to a vehicle part having a carrier device comprising a first rigid and a second soft carrier element, wherein - in the installed state - the carrier device has a fastening side, which faces the vehicle part and has an opposite visible side, and a sensor device for detecting a clamping force applied to the visible side of the carrier device.
  • Anti-trap systems are well known. They are used, for example, in the area of closing elements of motor vehicles, for example in the area of an electrically driven sliding door or in the case of electrically driven windows and tailgates, and sunroofs.
  • the sensor device is part of a safeguard against pinching of objects or body parts during the closing operation of the closing elements. From the publication DE 10 2013 104 967 A1 For example, a anti-trap system with a safety sensor bar is known.
  • the sensor device is necessarily from the functional point of view of the user of a vehicle, since the sensor device is activated by the direct contact of the object to be protected from jamming.
  • the contour of the sensor device hereby stands out strongly from that of the carrier device and thus reduces the visual appearance of the entire system.
  • the gloss level differences, for example, between the sensor device and the example grained surface of the support device also contribute to a poorer optics.
  • an object of the present invention is to develop the anti-trap system of the aforementioned type so that greater flexibility in the design of the visible surfaces is possible without affecting the function of the sensor device.
  • the support means comprises a third rigid support member, wherein the second soft support member pivotally interconnects the two rigid support members, the sensor device is provided on the attachment side of the support means, and one of the two support elements Operating portion which cooperates with the application of the Einklemmkraft with the sensor device.
  • the sensor device is no longer in the field of view of the anti-trap system, but on the mounting side, ie that area which faces the vehicle part or body part.
  • the sensor device is activated via the operating section of one of the two carrier elements, comparable to a lever which presses on the sensor device. Due to the pivotable connection between the two rigid support elements, one can move in the direction of the force when a clamping force acts, while at the same time the actuating section moves in the opposite direction and acts on the sensor device.
  • the rigid support member thus acts to deflect the force to actuate the sensor device from the underside and on the other hand as a force translating means, so that even smaller pinching forces can be detected, for example.
  • the anti-pinch system of the present invention permits visual improvement of the whole product, and on the other hand, the leverage effect can reduce the pinching force.
  • the carrier device is designed as a profile part whose cross-section is the same in the longitudinal direction.
  • the advantage lies in a very simple production of the carrier device.
  • the second soft carrier element covers the visible side of the carrier device at least partially, preferably completely.
  • the sensor device is designed to detect a pinching force by deformation, which is caused by the operating portion of one of the two rigid support members.
  • the second soft carrier element has a region of reduced material thickness between the two rigid carrier elements in order to form a hinge for a pivoting movement.
  • this region of reduced material thickness is designed as a V-shaped incision lying on the attachment side.
  • the first rigid support member has a connection portion lying on the attachment side, which cooperates with one or more fastening clips for attachment to the vehicle part.
  • the senor device is provided on the attachment side of the first rigid support member. More preferably, the actuating portion is provided on the third rigid support member.
  • the senor device is thus stationary relative to the body part while the actuating portion moves on the third rigid support member when a pinching force acts.
  • the actuating portion may be provided on the first rigid support member and the sensor device on the third rigid support member, so that so that the actuating portion does not move relative to the vehicle part and the sensor device is pressed onto the actuating portion upon application of a clamping force.
  • the third rigid support member is seen in cross-section (the cutting plane is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the support member or the support means) has a concave upwardly directed portion and, for example, a concave downwardly directed portion comprising the actuating portion ,
  • This embodiment of the third rigid support member has been found to be particularly advantageous.
  • the two rigid support elements comprise polypropylene (PP) as material. More preferably, the second soft carrier element comprises as material a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). PP as a material has the required strength to form a rigid element, while TPE has some elasticity that allows it to flex to achieve pivotal movement.
  • PP polypropylene
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the sensor device is designed as an elongated sensor strip which extends along the carrier device.
  • the advantage of this embodiment is the fact that a large detection range is made possible.
  • the aforementioned anti-pinch system can be used particularly advantageously in motorized tailgates, the anti-pinch system preferably being arranged on the driven tailgate.
  • the exemplary anti-jamming systems explained in the following description can, for example, be used in the area of closing elements on motor vehicles in order to detect obstacles when closing the closing elements.
  • the anti-pinch systems described below can be used in tailgates of vehicles.
  • Fig. 1 is an anti-trap system shown schematically in a sectional view and designated by the reference numeral 10.
  • the section is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (Z direction) of the anti-trap system.
  • the anti-pinch system 10 has essentially two main components, on the one hand a carrier device, which is identified by the reference numeral 12 and on the other hand, a sensor device, which is designated by the reference numeral 14.
  • the sensor device 14 is supported by the carrier device 12.
  • the anti-jamming system 10 is in Fig. 1 shown in the installed state, ie, that it is attached to a vehicle or body part 16 by means of a fastening clip 18. Since the anti-jamming system 10 extends in the longitudinal direction (Z-axis), a plurality of such fastening clips may be provided to ensure a secure attachment to the vehicle part.
  • the support means 12 comprises a first support member 20 made of a rigid material such as polypropylene (PP).
  • PP polypropylene
  • solid means that the material does not bend during normal use.
  • This first carrier element 20 takes over the connection with the fastening clips. On the exact configuration of this connection It does not matter in the present embodiment, so that here the usual compounds can be used.
  • the carrier device 12 comprises a further rigid carrier element 22 which is arranged (in the X direction) offset relative to the first carrier element.
  • the two rigid support members 20, 22 are not directly connected.
  • a soft carrier element which is identified by reference numeral 24.
  • Soft in this context means that the material can bend elastically in use.
  • This soft carrier element which is preferably made of a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), covers the two rigid carrier elements 20, 22 completely in the X direction and in the Z direction. As seen in the X direction, the soft carrier element 24 extends beyond the rigid carrier elements 20, 22, so that lips 26 are formed at both ends (seen in the X direction). These two lips 26 are intended to rest in the installed state on the body part or vehicle part 16 and have a sealing effect.
  • TPE thermoplastic elastomer
  • the two rigid support members 20, 22 are attached to the underside of the soft support member 24 and connected thereto.
  • the carrier device 12 with the carrier elements 20, 22, 24 can preferably be produced in a uniform manufacturing process, for example an injection molding process.
  • the underside of the soft carrier element 24, which is identified by the reference numeral 28, faces the vehicle part 16. This side is also referred to below as the mounting side, while the opposite side is referred to as the visible side 30, as it is visible from the outside and thus for the user of the vehicle.
  • a region 32 results between the two rigid support elements 20, 22, which is spanned only by the soft support element 24.
  • a recess 34 is provided on the attachment side 28 of the soft support member 24, which is preferably formed V-shaped. This incision 34 leads to a dilution of material at this point, so that the soft support member 24 becomes more flexible with respect to movement about an axis in the Z direction. In other words, the recess 34 serves to form a hinge 36.
  • this hinge 36 With the aid of this hinge 36, a relative movement of the further rigid support member 22 relative to the first support member 20 is possible. In particular, a pivoting movement of the further carrier element 22 about the Z-axis in the region of the hinge 36 relative to the first rigid carrier element 20 is possible.
  • the sensor device 14 On the side facing the vehicle part 16 (attachment side) of the first rigid support member 20, the sensor device 14 is mounted, preferably in the vicinity of the hinge 36. The sensor device 14 is thus arranged stationary to the vehicle part 16. A relative movement relative to the vehicle part 16 is not possible by the fixed connection of the first rigid support member 20 via the mounting clip 18 to the vehicle part 16. Due to the arrangement of the sensor device on the mounting side, the sensor device 14 is not visible from the outside.
  • the further rigid support member 22 is provided with a lever-like actuating portion 40 which is offset in the Y direction, ie spaced from the soft support member 24 and extending in the X direction over the region 32 in which the hinge 36 is formed extends.
  • the end of the actuating portion acting as a lever 40 is applied to the sensor device 14 and is pivoted about the hinge 36 opposite to this force F when a trapping force F is applied. By this pivoting movement, the sensor device 14 can be deformed be to capture the pinching force and deliver a corresponding electrical signal for a control device.
  • Fig. 1 For clarification is in Fig. 1 the position of a rigid support member 22 pivoted by a pinching force F shown in phantom.
  • the Fig. 1 shows that the right outer end of the further rigid carrier element 22 seen in the X direction has a concave, upwardly curved section 42.
  • This curved portion 42 provides a certain distance to the vehicle part 16, so that the pivoting movement in this area can take place without contact with the vehicle part.
  • a thinning of the material 43 is likewise provided on the inside of the lip, so that the lip 26 can take up the position shown in broken lines more easily.
  • One of the advantages of this embodiment of an anti-pinch system 10 is that even a small pinching force F leads to a large, easily detectable deformation of the sensor device 14.
  • the sensor device 14 is not visible from the outside and well protected against external influences.
  • the visual appearance is uniform from the outside because the user sees only the soft support member 24.
  • FIG Fig. 2 A somewhat modified anti-jamming system 10 is shown in FIG Fig. 2 illustrated below, with only the differences from the anti-trap system 10 already described will be discussed below.
  • the difference lies in the design of the sensor device, which is provided in this embodiment as round in cross-section sensor device 14 '.
  • a round sensor device 14 ' is for example in DE 10 2013 104 967 A1 described.
  • the rigid support member 20 has a channel-shaped region 44, in which the sensor device 14' is inserted and securely held.
  • FIG Fig. 3 Another embodiment of an anti-jamming system is shown in FIG Fig. 3 shown and designated by the reference numeral 10 '.
  • This anti-trap system 10 ' also has a first rigid support member 20' and another rigid support member 22 '. Both support elements 20 ', 22' are connected to each other via a soft carrier element 24 '. Again, a material dilution to form a hinge 36 in the soft support member 24 'is provided. Thus, the further rigid support member 22 'relative to the fixed to the vehicle part 16 first rigid support member 20 can be pivoted.
  • the sensor device 14 is mounted on the further rigid support member 22 on the inside (mounting side) in the present embodiment.
  • the lever-like actuating portion 40 is provided on the first rigid support element 20 ', as shown in FIG Fig. 3 easy to recognize.
  • such an anti-pinch system is used in the area of closing elements of vehicles in order to be able to recognize obstacles in the movement region of the closing element and to be able to react accordingly.
  • the closing element is a tailgate 50 which can be opened and closed by means of a motor.
  • the anti-jamming system 10 can now be provided either on the body in the tailgate area or alternatively on the tailgate 50. If, for example, an obstacle 60 in the opening and closing area of the tailgate, presses this obstacle 60 when closing the tailgate against the anti-trap system 10, so that the resulting pinching force leads to a deformation of the sensor device 14 and this emits a corresponding electrical signal to a control device.
  • This controller ensures that the engine opens the tailgate 50 again something.
