Definitions
- the invention is in the field of vehicles, such as motor vehicles, whose doors are equipped with electric locks.
- the invention also relates to the opening controls incorporating a function of electrical control of said locks and mechanical actuating means.
- the opening of the vehicles are equipped with locks which are actuated by an opening and / or opening control of the opening to which they are associated. They generally comprise a striker cooperating with a latch locked in the closed position by a pawl cooperating with a cam. To allow the opening of the opening, the pawl is released by a mechanism actuated following the operation of the opening command by a user of the vehicle.
- the electric locks (e-latch” in English) use an electromagnetic type mechanism to release the ratchet of the lock.
- the effort required from the user is very low and the opening opening control is, for example, in the form of a button ("push” in English) that the user will, depending on the case, lift or push.
- These buttons form a command user interface.
- the sash command When actuated, the sash command will control the release of the electric lock via the electrical network of the vehicle, multiplexed or not.
- the sash opening commands are thus electrically connected to a source of electrical energy of the vehicle, such as the battery.
- One of the known problems in vehicles comprising electric locks concerns the opening and closing of the doors in the event of failure of the main power supply, or in the event of interruption or deterioration of the electrical connection between the battery and the opening opening control, which can happen in case of accident.
- One solution to this problem is to associate in a single leaf control, for example in an inner leaf control, an electrical control and a mechanical control.
- EP3246498 discloses a door opening control comprising a push button.
- the pushbutton is spring-mounted and can be placed by depression in a first closed position of an electrical circuit for releasing the electric lock, or in a second mechanical opening position of said lock.
- the second position pulls a cable by means of a transmission element meshing with the push button.
- the object of the invention is to meet the drawbacks encountered in the prior art by proposing an interior opening control of a vehicle opening comprising both a function of electric opening of said door and a mechanical device which, in the case of electrical failure, is configured to avoid or at least limit the risks of inadvertent opening of the opening.
- the invention relates to an opening control of a motor vehicle opening comprising electrical and mechanical means for unlocking a lock to allow the opening of said opening, the control comprising a electric toggle switch in the form of a button pivotally mounted about a first axis of rotation and carried by a base, the opening control being remarkable in that said base of the switch is configured to be pivotally mounted around a second axis of rotation and is intended to cooperate with a mechanical actuating element of the lock so that the pivoting of said base around the second axis of rotation mechanically actuates the unlocking of said lock.
- the invention consists of an opening control for releasing a lock by electrical means and, in the event of failure of these electrical means, by mechanical means.
- the invention is particularly interesting in that the electrical and mechanical means are implemented by means of the same button but according to different modes of action.
- the release of the lock electrically is by a relative movement of the button relative to the base on which it is mounted, while the unlocking of the lock mechanically is effected by joint rotation of the base and the button she's wearing.
- the button of the switch comprising a first end intended to be manipulated by the user and a second end, the opening command is remarkable in that the switch is configured to trigger the release of the lock when said first end of the button is raised.
- This configuration is interesting for the security it provides, since it limits the risk of untimely release of the lock by the electrical means.
- first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are parallel.
- first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are distinct from each other.
- first axis of rotation and the second axis of rotation are offset in the longitudinal direction of the button.
- the pivoting of the button to actuate the electrical means, or the base for actuating the mechanical means of opening are in the same direction.
- they are in the same direction of rotation.
- the control is configured so that, when the electrical release is done by pivoting the switch button in a direction and a given direction, the mechanical unlocking by pivoting of the base is made in the same direction and the same meaning.
- the user of the vehicle who wishes to release the lock by operating its electrical means is able to unlock it also mechanically in the same gesture, pursuing it.
- the mechanical unlocking is done by further lifting said button.
- the base is intended to be mounted in a housing presented by a lining element of the opening, or is mounted in a housing; and the base comprises a clip fastening to the wall of said housing or said housing in which it is mounted, so as to prevent the pivoting of said base when the force applied to generate its pivoting is less than a given threshold.
- the need to apply a force exceeding a certain threshold to actuate the mechanical means of opening limits or eliminates the risk of inadvertent actuation of the mechanical means.
- the button of the switch is configured to be able to switch between a rest position and an actuating position, and it further comprises means for resilient return configured to return it to its rest position.
- This configuration allows, among other things, to be able to hide the second end of the button, so that only the first end can be manipulated.
- the second end of the button is configured to bear against the base when said first end of the button is raised, or against a relief shown by a side wall of a housing of the element of trim or housing that receives the base. This support placement will allow the button to act as a lever to generate a tilting of the base.
- the button of the switch comprising a first end intended to be manipulated by the user and a second end, the opening command is remarkable in that:
- the base further comprises a housing in which the base is mounted, and in that said housing is configured to mask the second end of the button, so that only the first end of the button is accessible to the user; or in that the base is mounted in a housing of an opening trim member and in that said trim member has a return masking the second end of the button, so that only the first end of the button is accessible to the user.
- the switch when the switch is configured to trigger the release of the lock following the lifting of said first end of the button, the masking of the second end avoids inadvertent release of the lock by pressing on said second end.
- the mechanical actuation element of the lock is a cable.
- said cable is slidably mounted in a guide sheath.
- said opening command is an inner opening command.
- the opening control is intended to be mounted in a housing of an opening trim element.
- the invention relates to a vehicle comprising at least one lock intended to authorize the operation of an opening leaf and which can be actuated both mechanically and electrically, remarkable in that the opening and / or closing of said lock is made using an opening command according to the first aspect of the invention.
- the opening control is an interior opening control.
- Figure 1 shows a sash opening control according to the invention as seen from above;
- Figure 2 shows the opening control of Figure 1, at rest, according to the cutting plane A-A;
- Figure 3 shows the opening control according to the invention as actuated for the electric release of the lock
- Figure 4 shows the opening control according to the invention as actuated for the mechanical unlocking of the lock.
- understand is synonymous with “include” and is not limiting in that it authorizes the presence of other elements in the vehicle or the opening opening control to which it to be related to. It is understood that the term “understand” includes the words “consist of”. In the different figures, the same references designate identical or similar elements.
- Figure 1 shows an opening control 1 of opening according to the invention, as seen from above.
- the opening 1 opening control comprises both electrical means and mechanical means for unlocking a lock (not shown) to allow the opening of said opening, for example a side door of a motor vehicle.
- the opening command 1 is an inner opening command.
- the opening control 1 comprises an electric toggle switch in the form of a knob 3 pivotally mounted about a first axis of rotation and carried by a base 7.
- the button 3 and its base 7 are received in a housing 9 of an element 1 1 opening sill lining.
- the opening 1 opening control comprises a housing (not shown) which receives the button and its base. It is then the housing which is mounted in a housing of an opening interior trim element.
- the button 3 (or button) comprises two ends: a first end 13 intended to be manipulated by the user and a second end 15.
- said button 3 is partly hidden by a return 17 of the element 1 1 trim so that only the first end 13 can be manipulated.
- the first end 13 is conveniently manipulated at its side face 19 which includes an ergonomic shape that can accommodate the finger of a user.
- This side face 19 is made accessible by the presence a cavity 21 (or holy water) formed in the lining element 1 1 and opening onto said lateral face 19. Switches of this type are known to those skilled in the art and used, for example, for actuating the electric windows.
- the switch is configured to trigger the release of the lock when said first end 13 of the button 3 is raised.
- This configuration is interesting for the security it provides, since it limits the risk of untimely release of the lock by the electrical means following an unwanted support on said button 3. Security is reinforced by the fact that the second end 15 is hidden and therefore inaccessible to the user. Nevertheless, those skilled in the art will easily adapt the invention to an actuation of the electrical means for releasing the lock by pressing the first end of the button.
- the electrical connector (not shown) of the control is disposed in the base 7.
- the button 3 of the switch is configured to be able to switch between a rest position and an actuating position, and further comprises elastic return means (not shown ) configured to return it to its rest position.
- the second end 15 of the button 3 is configured to be in abutment against the base 7 when said first end 13 of the button 3 is raised.
- This placement against the base 7 can be used to provide the electrical connection necessary for the release of the lock.
- this support will allow the user to continue the upward movement of the lifting button 3 which will then drive the base 7 in rotation.
- the control 1 opening is remarkable in that said base 7 of the switch is configured to be pivotally mounted about a second axis 23 of rotation.
- the first axis of rotation 5 and the second axis 23 of rotation are parallel.
- the first axis of rotation 5 and the second axis 23 of rotation are distinct from each other. More preferably, the first axis of rotation 5 and the second axis 23 of rotation are offset relative to each other in the longitudinal direction of the button 3.
- the first axis of rotation 5 has a central position relative to the base 7, while the second axis 23 of rotation is arranged on the base 7 below the second end 15 of the button 3, in order to benefit from an optimized lever arm .
- the second end is placed in abutment on a relief presented by one of the side walls of the housing receiving the base, or on a relief presented by one of the side walls of the housing of the lining element receiving the 'base.
- the base 7 will serve as a lever for actuating the mechanical unlocking means of the lock of the opening.
- the base 7 is intended to cooperate with an element 25 for mechanical actuation of the lock so that the pivoting of said base 7 around the second axis of rotation 23 mechanically actuates the unlocking of said lock, as illustrated in FIG. 4.
- This mechanical actuating element 25 is advantageously a cable 25 slidably mounted in a guide sheath 33 and connecting said lock to said base 7. The pivoting of the base 7 by lifting one of its ends causes the movement of the end 27 of the cable 25 and thereby the unlocking of the lock, which opens the opening of the vehicle.
- the release of the first end 13 of the button 3, allows the assembly formed by the base 7 and the button 3 to resume its rest position, possibly under the action of elastic return means (not shown).
- the cable 25 is connected to the base 7 on the same side as the first end 13 of the button 3.
- unlocking the lock is done by pivoting the button 3 and the base 7 in the same direction, and preferably, in the same direction of rotation, as for the release of the lock by the electrical means, so that the movement of the user continues.
- the skilled person may, however, consider other modes of actuation of the mechanical means by pivoting the base.
- the electrical means could be actuated by lifting the first end 13 of the button 3, while the actuation of the mechanical means would be obtained by pivoting in the opposite direction of said first end so as to push it driving with it the pivoting of the base.
- the base 7 is mounted in a housing 9 of a lining element 1 1 of the opening, or in a housing (not shown) and comprises a fastening clip 29 to the housing wall 9 or the housing in which it is mounted, said housing wall 9 then comprising complementary means 31 cooperating with said fixing clip.
- Said fastening clip 29 makes it possible, by elastic fitting, to prevent the pivoting of said base plate 7 when the force applied to generate its pivoting is lower than a given threshold.
- the need to apply a force exceeding a certain threshold to actuate the mechanical means of opening allows not to actuate them inadvertently.
- the base 7 is then held in position in the housing 9 or in the housing under the normal conditions of use of the button 3, that is to say under the operating conditions of the electrical means only.
