Definitions

  • the invention relates to a closing aid for a motor vehicle lock with a locking mechanism.
  • the locking mechanism comprises a catch and at least one pawl.
  • the invention further relates to a motor vehicle lock with a closing aid.
  • the catch of such a lock can be locked in a position Vorrast and a position Hauptastast by means of pawl.
  • Such a lock is in particular a lock for a motor vehicle door.
  • a rotary latch of a motor vehicle lock has a fork-shaped inlet slot, into which a locking bolt of a vehicle door or a vehicle door, when the vehicle door or vehicle door is closed.
  • the locking pin then rotates the catch from an open position to a closed position. If the catch has reached a closed position, then the locking pin can not leave the inlet slot of the catch. In the closed position, a pawl locks the catch, so that it can not be rotated back into the open position.
  • a lock with a pawl for the main catch, a pawl for the pre-rest and a blocking lever for the main catch - pawl is known from the document DE 10 2007 003 948 A1.
  • the closing aid comprises a drive with which the Rotary latch can be moved by engine power from the position Vorrast in the position main rest, so as to completely close an associated door or flap.
  • the drive comprises a motor-actuable closing pawl called a stirrup.
  • the closing pawl abuts against a bolt of the rotary latch, so that the catch can be rotated by the motorized movement of the closing pawl from the position pre-rest position to the position main rest.
  • the closing pawl is moved back to its original position. If the closing pawl has reached its starting position, the lock can be opened again. Moving the closing pawl back to its original position requires time. During this time, the lock can not be opened.
  • the object of the invention is achieved by the subject matter having the features of the first claim.
  • Advantageous embodiments emerge from the dependent claims.
  • the subject matter of the invention may comprise the aforementioned features individually or in combination.
  • the closing aid comprises a motor by means of which the rotary latch can be moved by engine power directly or indirectly from the pre-locking position and the main locking position so as to be able to pull an associated door or flap of a motor vehicle.
  • the closing aid has a movable closing pawl for pulling by the motor.
  • the rotary latch By moving the closing pawl by means of the motor from a starting position to an end position along a first path, the rotary latch is brought from the pre-locking position to the main locking position.
  • the backward movement of the closing pawl from the end position to the starting position takes place along another second path.
  • the moving back can be done for example by engine power and / or by the force of a preloaded spring.
  • the first way the closing pawl is now chosen so that thereby the catch is brought from the pre-rest in the main branch.
  • the second way of Zuziehklinke is chosen so that the Zuziehklinke is early disengaged, and in particular early before reaching the starting position. Once the closing pawl is disengaged, the lock can be opened. Therefore, it is not necessary to wait until the closing pawl has reached its starting position again in order to be able to open the lock.
  • the movement of the closing pawl is preferably controlled by one or more control contours.
  • pivotal movements of the closing pawl are controlled, so as to be able to bring the Ziehiehklinke particularly quickly disengaged as soon as the catch has been moved by the closing aid in the Hauptastastposition.
  • the closing pawl can also be brought out of engagement with an ejector, for example by a shock, in order to enable an opening of the associated lock early by the disengagement.
  • Moving the closing pawl along the first path is preferably such that the closing pawl rests against a first control contour in the course of the movement and / or the movement of the closing pawl runs along the second path so that the closing pawl rests against a second control contour in the course of the movement
  • the first control contour acts as a guide for the closing pawl such that the closing pawl along the first path from the starting position to the end position is moved.
  • the second control contour acts as a guide for the closing pawl such that the closing pawl is moved along the second path from the end position to the starting position.
  • the two control contours are preferably movably mounted. This can be achieved in a simple manner that the Zuziehklinke is performed on the way from the starting position to the end position by a first control contour and is guided on the way back from the end position back to the starting position by a second other control contour and by appropriately moving the two control contours.
  • a suitable movement of the two control contours succeeds in particular by attaching the two control contours to a pivotally mounted lever. If the lever is pivoted, the two control contours are thereby moved.
  • the two movable control contours and / or the closing pawl are biased in one embodiment by a spring in the direction of a third control contour, so as to enable safe operation.
  • the movable control contours and / or the closing pawl can be moved in the direction of the third control contour.
  • the third control contour also controls a movement of the closing pawl, in particular along the first path.
  • the third control contour is basically immovably mounted so firmly attached.
  • the pivotable lever is pivoted when the closing pawl is moved from the starting position to the end position. This contributes to the fact that in a technically simple manner, the closing pawl along the first Path is guided by a first control contour. But it is also alternatively or additionally possible that the pivotable lever is pivoted during the movement along the second path, so as to control movements suitable.
  • the pivotable lever is pivoted in a second direction of rotation when the closing pawl is moved from the end position to the starting position. This pivoting in the second direction of rotation can take place before and / or during the movement of the closing pawl from the starting position into the end position. This contributes to the fact that in a technically simple manner the closing pawl is guided along the first path through a first control contour. This second direction of rotation is reversed to the aforementioned first direction of rotation.
  • both contours have an arcuate shape, wherein the ends of the arcuate shapes open into one another such that an ellipse-like shape is present, for example an oval. At least approximately are acute-angled ends, which can easily contribute to the fact that on the way the Zuziehklinke is guided by the first control contour and on the way back through the second control contour.
  • the closing pawl has, in an advantageous embodiment, a protruding pin, which bears against the corresponding aforementioned control contour during the movement of the closing pawl.
  • the control contours can thus guide the pin and thus the closing pawl in the course of movement of the closing pawl. This can be further improved in a simple way to help that on the way the Ziehiehklinke is guided by the first control contour and on the way back through the second control contour.
  • the bolt has a circular or drop-shaped cross-section, which further improves contributes to that on the way out the closing pawl is guided by the first control contour and on the way back through the second control contour.
  • the closing pawl is rotatably supported by an axle. The movement of the closing pawl along the first path and / or the second path comprises a rotational movement about the axis and a displacement (ie displacement) of this axis.
  • the closing aid can be moved along different paths with simple technical means.
  • the invention also relates to a lock with such a closing aid.
  • the Zuziehklinke is located during the closing in an embodiment directly on the rotary latch to keep the number of components and thus the space small.
  • Figure 2 Zuzieh came with Zuziehklinke during their movement along a first path towards the end position;
  • Figure 5 Lock with closing aid.
  • Figures 1 to 4 show a detail of a closing aid 1 for a motor vehicle lock in order to move the catch by motor power, preferably by means of an electric drive directly or indirectly, from the pre-locking position and the main detent position.
  • the closing aid comprises a movable Catching pawl 2, wherein the closing pawl 2 can be moved for pulling from a starting position shown in Figure 1 in an end position shown in Figure 3 along a first path.
  • FIG. 3 shows the closing pawl 2 on its first path in order to move from the starting position to the end position.
  • the moving back of the closing pawl 2 from the end position to the starting position takes place along another second path.
  • FIG. 4 shows the closing pawl 2 on its second path in order to return from its end position to the starting position.
  • the second path is different than the first way, so that two different paths are shown in the sense of the present invention.
  • the movement of the closing pawl 2 along the first and second paths is controlled by a plurality of control contours 3, 4 and 5.
  • a first control contour 4 and a second control contour 3 are attached to a pivotably mounted lever 6.
  • the lever 6 can be pivoted about its axis 7.
  • the first control contour 4 and the second control contour 3 are movably mounted due to their attachment to the pivotable lever 6.
  • the movement of the closing pawl 2 along the first path is such that the closing pawl 2 rests in the course of the movement on the first movable control contour 4 and on the third immovable control contour 5, as illustrated in particular by FIG.
  • Moving the closing pawl 2 along the second path is such that the closing pawl 2 rests against the second control contour 3 in the course of the movement, as shown in FIG.
  • the first and second movable control contour 4, 3 and the closing pawl 2 are movable by the force of prestressed, not shown springs in the direction of the fixed and thus not movable control contour 5.
  • FIG. 4 it is ensured that the first control contour 4 rests against the control contour 5 and the pin 8 of the closing pawl 2 rests against the second control contour 3.
  • the pivotable lever 6 is initially pivoted counterclockwise in a first direction of rotation when the closing pawl 2 is moved from the starting position to the end position along the first path. If the closing pawl 2 has traveled sufficiently far the first way, then the pivotable lever 6 is pivoted back again, that is, then clockwise. If the closing pawl 2 has reached its end position, then the pivotable lever 6 has been completely swung back again.
  • the first control contour 4 is then applied to the immovable control contour 5, which is ensured by the force of one of said prestressed springs.
  • the two movable control contours form an oval or at least oval-like shape.
  • This shape in conjunction with the cross-sectional teardrop stud 8 of the pawl 2, ensures that the pawl 2 is moved for cinching along a first path and for movement back to the home position along a second path different from the first path.
  • the immovable control contour 5 extends angularly.
  • a leg of this angular shape serves as a stop for the bolt 8 when the closing pawl 2 is moved back to its original position.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates that the one leg of the control contour 5 prevents the closing pawl 8 from being moved further to the right. In this respect, this leg of the control contour 5 forms a stop for the closing pawl 2.
  • the other leg of this angle shape controls the movement along the first path, as the figure 2 illustrates, since then the bolt 8 of the closing pawl 2 rests against this second leg of the control contour 5.
  • the closing pawl 2 is rotatably supported by an axis 9 shown in FIG. In the figure 5, the closing pawl 2 is shown in comparison to the figures 1 to 4 from the opposite side. Moving the closing pawl 2 along the first path and the second path comprises a rotational movement of the closing pawl 2 about its axis 9. In addition, the axis 9 is moved, ie the position of the axis
  • the axis 9 is as shown in Figure 5 at one end of the lever arm
  • the closing pawl 2 is during its movement along the first path and thus during tightening to a rotary latch 14 so that the rotary latch 14 is pivoted from the pre-latching position to its main latching position.
  • This concern is not apparent from Figure 5, since the view is hidden by a lock housing 15.
  • the catch and the pawl of Gesperres are pivotally mounted on a lock box 1 6. If the closing pawl 2 is moved back after reaching its end position (see FIG. 3), then the closing pawl 2 is lifted early as required by pivoting about its axis 9 from the control contour 5 and thus also from the rotary latch, and thus disengaged brought. As soon as the closing pawl 2 has been lifted off the catch and thus disengaged, the lock can be opened.
