La commande d'ouverture extérieure comprend sur la poignée, un barillet destiné à recevoir une clé 18. La clé 18 est destinée à être insérée et tournée dans le barillet, par un utilisateur, afin de procéder au verrouillage ou au déverrouillage de la serrure. Les deux sens de rotation de la clé sont illustrés par des flèches à la figure 1 . L'unité de serrure 4 peut comprendre un logement du barillet. Le barillet 20 et le logement 22 du barillet sont visibles à la figure 2. The locking and unlocking of the lock of the opening can be achieved by means of a key cooperating with the external opening control or remote from the vehicle via a remote control. The outer opening control comprises on the handle, a cylinder for receiving a key 18. The key 18 is intended to be inserted and rotated in the barrel, by a user, to proceed to lock or unlock the lock. The two directions of rotation of the key are illustrated by arrows in Figure 1. The lock unit 4 may comprise a housing of the barrel. The barrel 20 and the housing 22 of the barrel are visible in FIG.
Le système de commande 2 comprend également une unité de commande 24 de la serrure de l'ouvrant. L'unité de commande 24 est généralement connue sous le nom de BSI ou Boîtier de Servitude Intelligent.

Les moyens de détection de la rotation de la clé (non représentés) sont configurés pour détecter une rotation de la clé dans le barillet, dans un sens ou indistinctement dans deux sens de rotation de la clé. Les moyens de détection peuvent comprendre un interrupteur 28, situé à proximité du logement du barillet, sur l'unité de serrure, tel que représenté à la figure 2. L'interrupteur 28 peut ainsi être relié au barillet de manière à détecter une rotation de la clé dans le barillet. Lors de la rotation de la clé dans le barillet, un signal de rotation de la clé va être émis à l'unité de commande qui va commander l'inversion de l'état de la serrure, quel que soit le sens de rotation de la clé dans le barillet. The control unit 24 of the control system of the invention is configured to take into account a selectively locked and unlocked state of the lock and in response to the detection of rotation of the key 18, to control a reversal of the state of the lock. The lock unit 4 comprises means for detecting the rotation of the key in the barrel. The means for detecting the rotation of the key (not shown) are configured to detect a rotation of the key in the barrel, in one direction or indistinctly in two directions of rotation of the key. The detection means may comprise a switch 28, located near the barrel housing, on the lock unit, as shown in FIG. 2. The switch 28 may thus be connected to the barrel so as to detect a rotation of the barrel. the key in the barrel. During the rotation of the key in the barrel, a rotation signal of the key will be emitted to the control unit which will control the inversion of the state of the lock, regardless of the direction of rotation of the key. key in the barrel.
Selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'unité de serrure 4 comprend des moyens de détection de l'état de la serrure. L'unité de commande 24 comprend une entrée pour un signal de détection de l'état de la serrure. Les moyens de détection de l'état de la serrure peuvent comprendre un capteur 30 de position des moyens de verrouillage et de déverrouillage de la serrure. Le capteur de position est représenté à la figure 2. According to one embodiment of the invention, the lock unit 4 comprises means for detecting the state of the lock. The control unit 24 includes an input for a lock state detection signal. The means for detecting the state of the lock may comprise a position sensor 30 for locking and unlocking means of the lock. The position sensor is shown in Figure 2.
En alternative et selon un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, l'unité de serrure 4 est vierge de moyens de détection de l'état de la serrure et l'unité de commande comprend un registre de l'état de la serrure (non représenté). L'unité de commande 24 est configurée pour mettre à jour le registre de l'état de la serrure lors de chaque commande d'inversion de l'état de la serrure. Ce mode de réalisation permet ainsi de s'affranchir de moyens de détection de l'état de la serrure et simplifie le montage de l'unité de serrure. Alternatively and according to another embodiment of the invention, the lock unit 4 is blank with means for detecting the state of the lock and the control unit comprises a register of the state of the lock ( not shown). The control unit 24 is configured to update the lock status register at each lock state reversal command. This embodiment thus makes it possible to dispense with means for detecting the state of the lock and simplifies assembly of the lock unit.
Ainsi, dès la réception d'un signal de rotation d'une clé dans un barillet d'un ouvrant du véhicule, une commande de verrouillage ou de déverrouillage de l'ouvrant est émise. La commande de verrouillage ou de déverrouillage prend en compte un état verrouillé ou déverrouillé, sélectivement, de l'ouvrant et, en réponse à la détection de rotation de la clé, commande une inversion dudit état de l'ouvrant. Thus, upon receipt of a rotation signal of a key in a cylinder of a door of the vehicle, a lock or unlocking command of the door is issued. The locking or unlocking control takes into account a selectively locked or unlocked state of the opening and, in response to the detection of rotation of the key, controls a reversal of said opening state.
