Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a locking mechanism for a door, in particular for a vehicle door, comprising at least one locking element for locking the door in a closed position and an actuating device for transferring the locking element on the user side from a locking position to an unlocking position and / or from the unlocking position to the locking position , wherein the locking element and the actuating device are mechanically coupled to one another by means of a push-pull element, the locking mechanism having an adjustable coupling mechanism for adjustable coupling of the push-push element to the locking element and / or the actuating device.
  • Such locking mechanisms are generally known, in particular from the vehicle sector. They generally have an actuating device attached to a door at a central location and to be actuated from the outside by a user, in the form of a pull handle. On the inside, one or two locking units are arranged at a distance from the actuating device, for example above or below the actuating device. These are each operatively connected to the actuating unit via a generally metallic tension rod, such that their actuation on the user side results in a relative positioning of the tension rods. A change in position of the respective tension rod is transmitted to a locking element of the locking units via a rotatable cam element. As a result, the locking element is moved between a position locking the door and a position unlocking the door.
  • a locking mechanism of the aforementioned type is for example from the published patent application US 5 713 612 A. known.
  • This publication discloses a locking mechanism for positioning in a first hole in a door.
  • An outer actuator is connected to the locking mechanism to cause it to operate, and an inner actuator is connected to the locking mechanism to cause it to operate.
  • a latch mechanism is mounted in a second hole in the door, the second hole being spaced from the first hole.
  • the latch mechanism has a latch which is automatically brought into an extended position when a part of the latch mechanism touches a door opener.
  • the locking mechanism comprises a swivel mechanism and there is a spindle in engagement with the swivel mechanism for retracting the bolt.
  • An interconnected arrangement connects the inner actuator and the spindle, whereby movement of the inner actuator both actuates the locking mechanism and moves the latch to a retracted position.
  • the locking element of the locking mechanism and a corresponding actuating device are mechanically coupled to one another by means of a push-pull element, the locking mechanism having an adjustable coupling mechanism for the adjustable coupling of the push-push element to the locking element and / or the actuating device.
  • the object of the invention is to reduce or avoid the disadvantages mentioned, in particular to provide a locking mechanism with an easy, inexpensive and robust possibility for setting and / or adjusting.
  • a locking mechanism for a door, in particular for a vehicle door, for example a motor home, a car trailer, a caravan or a horse transporter, having at least one locking element for locking the Door in a closed position and an actuating device for transferring the locking element on the user side from a locking position into an unlocking position and / or from the unlocking position into the locking position, the locking element and the actuating device being mechanically coupled to one another by means of a push-pull element, the locking mechanism has an adjustable coupling mechanism for the adjustable coupling of the tension-compression element with the locking element and / or the actuating device.
  • the invention is characterized in that the coupling mechanism has a first cam element coupled to the tension-compression element and a second cam element coupled to the locking element.
  • the first cam element or the second cam element can be coupled to the pull-push element or the locking element in a plurality of different relative positions.
  • the adjustability of the locking mechanism is brought about by a relative positioning of the respective cam element to the part of the mechanism coupled therewith, ie the push-pull element or the locking element.
  • the first cam element and the second cam element can be coupled to one another in a plurality of different relative positions to one another.
  • the adjustability of the locking mechanism is brought about by a relative positioning of the two cam elements to one another.
  • the tension-compression element is preferably a rod, in particular a metal rod.
  • it is suitable and determined to transmit tensile and / or compressive forces between the actuating unit and the respective locking unit and its locking element.
  • a pre-tensioned locking bolt with a bevel it only has to be able to transmit forces in one direction.
  • a door in the sense of the invention comprises, in addition to doors in the narrower sense for entering or leaving a room locked by the door, also in a broader sense similar locking elements that can be positioned between a closed position and an open position, such as windows, flaps, loading flaps, hatches, etc.
  • the coupling mechanism is preferably easily accessible even in the assembled state and advantageously enables a defined, reliable and, above all, reproducible way to adjust the locking mechanism during its assembly and also to readjust it in the event of wear. This eliminates the need to adjust by manually bending the tension rod so that it is not weakened as a result of deformation and, moreover, no misalignments or canting are introduced into the mechanism.
  • a particular advantage is that concealed locking mechanisms installed inside the door can also be adjusted or adjusted.
  • the locking mechanism can in particular have two or more locking units operatively connected to the actuating device, which are arranged at different positions on the door from one another and at a distance from the actuating device, in order in this way for to lock the door with a door frame, frame or door lock in different places.
  • Each locking unit each comprises at least one locking element.
  • the coupling mechanism can have a coupling geometry.
  • a coupling geometry in this sense is to be understood as a part or section of the coupling mechanism which engages with correspondingly designed counter-contours on the side of the pull-push element or the locking element and can be positioned in different functional positions / engagement positions with respect to the counter-contour.
  • Such a coupling geometry can in particular be designed in the form of a toothing or a polygon or have such.
  • the first cam element and the second cam element can be coupled to one another via the coupling geometry.
  • an embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the coupling mechanism has a pivot. On the one hand, this can be coupled in a rotationally fixed manner to one of the cam elements and, on the other hand, can be coupled to the other cam element via the coupling geometry.
  • the pivot pin can pass through the locking element.
  • a particularly easy-to-assemble option consists in the fact that the pivot pin has an opening provided with an internal thread and is fixed in position on it by a screw penetrating one of the cam elements.
  • the locking unit of the locking mechanism according to the invention can in particular have a base plate with a linear guide for the linearly positionable guidance of the locking element.
  • the base plate with a bearing structure can be rotatably positioned Storage of at least one of the coupling elements and / or the pivot pin may be provided.
  • the base plate is preferably designed as an injection molded component made of plastic, which is advantageous in terms of cost and weight.
  • the second cam element has an eccentric entrainment which engages with the locking element.
  • the first cam element can have an eccentric entrainment which engages with the tension-compression element.
  • Such eccentric entrainments can be used to convert a linear displacement of the tension / compression element into a rotary movement of the first cam element and a rotary movement of the second cam element into a linear displacement of the locking element in a particularly simple manner.
  • the invention can be used both with snap locks in which the locking element has to be actuated by the actuating unit only in one direction, and with such locking systems in which the locking element is not designed as a snap, but instead it must be operated in both directions.
  • the Figures 1 to 4 show an example of a known locking mechanism 1 for a vehicle door 2.

These are each technically connected to the actuating unit 3 via a metallic tension rod 7, which acts as a tension-compression element 7 and forms one. Both tension rods 7 are coupled on the one hand to the pull handle 4 of the actuation unit 3.
  • each of the two tension rods 7 is coupled via an adjustable coupling mechanism 10 to each of the two locking units 5, 6 and to the respective locking element 9.
  • Both locking units 5, 6 are of identical design and are described below by referring only to those in FIGS Figures 7 to 11 locking unit 5 illustrated. Due to the identity of both locking units 5, 6, these explanations also apply to locking unit 6.
