Definitions

  • the invention is directed to a door handle arrangement of a motor vehicle, comprising a carrier which can be fastened to a door or flap of the motor vehicle, a handle body which is pivotably mounted on the carrier about an axis of rotation and which can be moved manually from a rest position via an intermediate position into an end position, and a force increasing device which, when the handle body moves from the rest position until the intermediate position is reached, is designed to generate a resistance force that counteracts the movement of the handle body.
  • a door handle assembly of the type mentioned is, for example, from EP 1 819 892 B1 known.
  • a resistance device is effective at the end of a first actuation path of a manually operated handle body, which increases the actuation resistance for a short time, so that a switch for electrically opening the door lock is only actuated after or when a noticeable pressure point has been overcome and the door lock opens electrically. If the handle is deflected beyond the first actuation path along a second actuation path, the door lock is opened mechanically in an emergency, such as in the case of an empty vehicle battery, whereby an actuation force is required that is greater than the force required for electrical opening is necessary.
  • the invention is based on the object of creating a solution that provides an improved door handle arrangement in a structurally simple manner, by means of which the aforementioned disadvantages are avoided and by means of which handling is possible for the operator.
  • the object is achieved according to the invention in that the force increasing device has an elastically deformable force increasing element which generates the resistance force and which is fastened to the handle body, a resistance element which interacts with the force increasing element and which is both linearly movable and rotatable the handle body is mounted, and a movement element cooperating with the resistance element, which moves the resistance element translationally in relation to the axis of rotation of the handle body in relation to the axis of rotation of the handle body when the handle body is moved from the rest position until the intermediate position is reached against the resistance force generated by the force increasing element in the direction of the force increasing element when the handle body is moved from the end position into the rest position so as to be rotationally movable with respect to an axis of rotation.
  • a translational movement is understood to mean a movement in which the resistance element moves linearly to the axis of rotation of the handle body, so that the resistance element is displaced linearly to the axis of rotation.
  • a rotational movement is to be understood as a movement in which the resistance element is rotated about the axis of rotation.
  • the invention provides a door handle arrangement which is characterized by a simple construction.
  • a door lock of the door of the motor vehicle can be opened electrically before or when the intermediate position of the handle body is reached, so that the operator does not have to exert an increased amount of force as in the prior art.
  • the door lock can consequently be opened electrically with the application of a minimal expenditure of force.
  • the force increasing element generating the resistance force is only effective when the handle body is moved from the rest position into the intermediate position. In this way, the operator of the door handle arrangement receives a noticeable feedback for him, with the operator not having to reach the intermediate position at all in order for the door lock to be opened electrically.
  • the intermediate position only needs to be reached and overcome by the operator if a currentless emergency actuation is required, whereby the door lock can be opened purely mechanically with the aid of an actuation of the handle body, which is coupled to the door lock via a Bowden cable, for example. Since the force increasing element is only effective when the handle body moves from the rest position into the intermediate position, the operator of the door handle arrangement does not have to use an operating force increased by the force increasing device for mechanical emergency opening of the door lock, which facilitates the operation of the door handle arrangement according to the invention in an emergency operation.
  • the resistance element is moved in a translatory manner in the direction of the force increasing element. This increase in force is only present until the intermediate position is reached. As soon as the intermediate position is exceeded and the grip body continues in Is moved towards its end position, no increase in force is noticeable for the operator.
  • the resistance element is arranged in the movement path of the movement element both when the handle body moves from the rest position into the end position and when the handle body moves from the end position into the rest position, so that the movement element strives according to the invention to force the resistance element out of its path of movement .
  • the handle body is usually biased into its rest position by means of a spring element, so that after the action of an actuating force by the operator, the handle body tries to return to its rest position.
  • this spring element can be dimensioned small, because when the handle body is moved back into the rest position, the resistance element on the handle body is not moved in a translatory manner, as in the movement towards the end position, but in a rotational manner, including a much less force is required.
  • the movement element is designed as a movement attachment protruding from a base body mounted on the carrier.
  • the movement attachment can be designed in the manner of a lever arm which interacts with the resistance element when the handle body moves.
  • the invention provides that the movement element is pivotably mounted on the carrier via a pivot axis, the handle body and the movement element being coupled to one another for movement in opposite directions about the axis of rotation and the pivot axis when the handle body moves.
  • the movement element is designed as a mass balancing element which, in the event of a vehicle accident, ensures that the grip body is effective due to the effects of the accident Acceleration forces do not get into a position in which the door lock can be opened.

Due to the force to be applied for the translational movement of the resistance element 17, an increase in force for pivoting the handle body 4 can be felt by the operator of the door handle arrangement 3.
  • the movement element 18 When the handle body 4 moves from the rest position into the intermediate position, the movement element 18 is consequently designed in such a way that its movement attachment 19 moves along the ramp surface 38 and the resistance element 17 moves linearly or translationally in relation to the axis of rotation 10 of the handle body 4 in the direction of the force increasing element 16 is moved so that the resistance element 17 compresses the force increasing element 16.
  • the resistance element 17 assumes a translation position.
  • the pivot pins 33 of the functional body 30 are arranged at a distance from the bearing receptacles 34 and the support elements 32 of the functional body 30 are arranged at a distance from the receiving frame 31, the functional body 30 being displaced translationally within the receiving frame 31 relative to its basic position is arranged, as it is already in the Figures 14 and 16 is shown.
  • the door can therefore be opened electrically when the movement attachment 19 of the movement element 18 moves along the ramp surface 38 or, alternatively, after the intermediate position has been exceeded, with the operator of the door handle arrangement 3 experiencing a noticeably increasing resistance from the force increasing element 16 when the functional body 30 is moved in a translatory manner perceives, whereas when the intermediate position is exceeded, the force to be exerted by the operator to pivot the handle body 4 decreases noticeably and the exceeding may be accompanied by an acoustic noise, which signals to the operator that he has reached or reached the actuation point for electrically opening the door 2. has exceeded.
  • the handle body 4 is now maximally actuated by an operator and arranged in its end position.
  • the resistance element 17 is now arranged again in its basic position after passing through the intermediate position of the handle body 4.
  • the force increasing element 16 pushes the resistance element 17 out of the translation position due to its elasticity (see FIG Figures 31 and 32 ) back to its home position (see Figures 33 and 34 ), so that the support elements 32 are now back on rest on the receiving frame 31 of the handle body 4 and the pivot pins 33 of the functional body 30 are again arranged in the bearing receptacles 34 of the handle body 4.
  • the movement element 18 is arranged at a distance from the ramp surface 38 during the movement of the handle body 4 beyond the intermediate position up to the end position.
  • the movement attachment 19 of the movement element 18 moves towards the functional body 30 and comes into contact with the functional body 30, as it does the Figures 35 and 36 can be found.
  • the movement attachment 19 of the movement element 18 rests against a side surface 45 of the functional body 30 adjoining the ramp surface 38.
  • the functional body 30 now has the freedom of movement due to its mounting of the pivot pins 33 in the bearing receptacles 34 to rotate about the pivot pins 33, which define the axis of rotation 40, when the movement attachment 19 of the movement element 18 as a result of the movement of the handle body 4 back into its rest position acts on the functional body 30 and pushes against it.
  • Figures 35 and 36 a position in which the functional body 30 is already arranged rotated about the axis of rotation 40 in the bearing receptacles 34 counterclockwise, the handle body 4 in this case in a clockwise direction 44 about the axis of rotation 10 and the movement element 18 coupled to the handle body 4 in the opposite direction Rotates clockwise 43 about pivot axis 12.
  • the two guide arms 35 are at least temporarily positioned and guided in the guide recesses 41 of the handle body 4, the movement element 18 coming into contact with the functional body 30 and the two with its two Trunnions 33 in the functional body 30 arranged in the corresponding bearing receptacles 34 are moved in the bearing receptacles 34 in a rotational manner about the axis of rotation 40 counter to the direction of rotation of the handle body 4.
  • the resistance element 17 assumes a rotational position in which the resistance element 17 is arranged in the bearing receptacles 34 rotated about the axis of rotation 40 from the basic position.
  • the movement attachment 19 of the movement element 18 moves past the functional body 30 of the resistance element 17 and rotates the resistance element 17, which is arranged in the movement path of the movement element 18, at least temporarily around the Axis of rotation 40 and from the path of movement of the movement element 18, the direction of rotation of the functional body 30 being directed against the direction of rotation of the handle body 4.
  • a door handle arrangement 3 which is characterized by the force increasing device 21 which, when the handle body 4 is actuated, noticeably increases the actuation resistance for an operator.
  • the force increasing device 21 comprises the elastically deformable and the resistance force 39 generating force increasing element 16, which is attached to the handle body 4, the resistance element 17 cooperating with the force increasing element 16, which is both linearly movable and rotatably mounted on the handle body 4, and that with the Resistance element 17 cooperating movement element 18, which moves the resistance element 17 in a translatory manner in relation to the axis of rotation 10 of the handle body 4 when the handle body 4 moves from the rest position until the intermediate position is reached against the resistance force 39 generated by the force increase element 16 in the direction of the force increase element 16 and when the handle body 4 moves is designed such that it moves from the end position into the rest position in a rotational manner with respect to an axis of rotation 40.
