  • the control and communication device can provide a wired interface to which an external communication device can be connected via a cable connection, or a wireless communication connection, in particular according to a wireless radio standard, can be provided.
  • the control and communication device brings the actuator to bring the locking device from the locking position to the unlocked position.
  • the electric actuator is also supplied from the charged energy storage.
  • the actuator may well move the locking device beyond the unlocking position into an open position - but this is not absolutely necessary.
  • the invention provides the possibility to maintain the electrical operation for the lifting of the blocking effect of the locking device, for which purpose an autonomous control and communication device is used, which is independent of the central vehicle components by the rechargeable energy storage operate. If the energy store is sufficiently charged so that the control and communication device is ready for operation, it is available for establishing a communication connection.
  • An entrained by the user authorization means such as a mobile phone with authorization data stored on it or a smart card or a mobile radio key serve as legitimizing means, can serve as an external communication device whose data content in a Communication is transmitted to the control and communication device, so that only authorized persons can cause the unlocking of the mechanical locking device.
  • a user may couple the external communication device to the control and communication device and transmit the authorization data stored on or retrievable from the external communication device.

  • the invention provides in the assembly for a motor vehicle all components in a autonomous from the rest of the vehicle coupling, which are required for an emergency release of a motor vehicle.
  • the control and communication device is in an idle state and can be completely functionless when the energy storage is emptied. Only when the energy storage is charged by manipulation and actuation of the actuating means of the generator means by the user, the control and communication device comes to life and is ready for communication with an external communication device. Accordingly, the control and communication device within the assembly according to the invention in addition to a central or more central control and communication devices that control an actuator in normal normal operation to operate the mechanical locking device as desired. However, the actuator of the assembly according to the invention may be the same actuator, which is responsible for the adjustment of the mechanical locking device even in normal operation.
  • the assembly is formed with a carrier on which the components of the assembly, in particular the locking device, the control and communication device, the energy storage, the actuator and the generator device are arranged.
  • Such an assembly may be installed in a compact design with the appropriate emergency operating functionality when placed on a vehicle. Since the components of the module, if they are required for emergency operation, do not require an external power supply, no cabling is required in this regard.
  • the structure of such an assembly may correspond to the arrangement of the carrier known door handle or rear lock assemblies, there are well-known on the door panel mount carrier from the field of vehicle door handles and rear locks. Such carriers have sufficient space to accommodate in addition to other components of the locking system, the components for an emergency operation.

Accordingly, it can be attacked on the same module and the handle of this module to cause a door or flap both in normal operation of a vehicle and in emergency operation unlocking.
  • the direct common arrangement of the control and communication device and the energy storage and the generator device on the carrier of an accessible handle on the vehicle continue to ensure short cable routes and easy approach to the generator device and the control and communication device by the user. This is the generator operation by the user and the easy construction a communication connection due to the easy accessibility favors.
  • the actuating means is rotatable or deflectable independently of the handle to drive the generator means and to charge the energy storage.
  • the door handles are often designed as locked, so-called fixed door handles.

  • the handle can then be fixed particularly stable on the support or door panel, while the actuating means for the user in an emergency are easily accessible and operable.
  • the actuating means can be arranged in the immediate vicinity of the handle, for example on or under a cap which merges in an end region in the body of the handle in alignment.
  • a mechanical lock cylinder is provided for an emergency function.
  • the actuating means may be arranged for the generator drive.
  • the generator device is formed with a linear generator or a rotary generator.
  • Such generator devices are known in the prior art and in a robust design to carry permanently on the vehicle. These generator devices convert the rotary actuation or pull or push operation of a user into electrical energy, which is conducted to charge the energy storage device. Which of the mentioned generator devices is preferably used depends in particular from the space available, in which the systems differ in the arrangement on the carrier.
  • the energy store is a short-term energy store and has at least one capacitor.
  • capacitors on the one hand provides a quick and low-loss charging option and on the other hand ensures that the control and communication device does not remain active for an undesirably long period of time. Capacitors are charged quickly and discharged quickly, so that a discharge after restoration of the on-board supply of a vehicle is easily possible, resulting in a repeal of the functionality of the control and communication device. Furthermore, capacitors with appropriate encapsulation on the vehicle for a long time get their ability to store electrical energy and are mechanically stable.
  • control and communication device has a transceiver, which is designed for wireless radio communication.
  • a coupling of the external communication device with the control and communication device of the assembly according to the invention is basically also possible by wired connections, but a wireless radio communication provides special universality.

  • communication interfaces for emergency operation can be provided for a large number of devices.
  • Such interfaces can be provided as pure software solutions, in particular as freely available applications for mobile devices.
  • the actuator has an interface via which it can be coupled to a central control device of a vehicle and can be controlled via this interface in order to effect a change between locking position and unlocking position of the mechanical locking device.
  • the actuator of the assembly according to the invention may be a separate actuator, which is not used during normal operation of the vehicle.
  • the actuator may still be arranged in the assembly, but coupled via an interface for normal operation (powered by a central energy storage of the vehicle) with the central control device of the vehicle and be controllable.
  • the control and communication device of the module according to the invention is not supplied with energy and is not available for driving the actuator available. In this normal operation then makes the central vehicle system both the power supply of the actuator and its control.
  • Such an assembly advantageously utilizes the same resources of the actuator in all modes of operation.
  • control and communication device is designed to measure the state of charge of the energy store and to actuate the actuator only when the state of charge exceeds a predetermined threshold value.
  • control and communication device ensures in this advantageous embodiment that the state of charge of the energy storage is sufficient to allow complete cancellation of the blocking effect. Partial unlocking is thus prevented.
