Abstract

Aspects of the present invention relate to a sliding door arrangement (130) for a vehicle (100) and a vehicle (100) comprising a sliding door arrangement (130). The sliding door arrangement (130), includes a first door (106) comprising a first door panel (110) having a first side edge (303) and a second side edge (113) opposite to the first side edge (303), and first actuation means (123) configured to move the first side edge (303) of the first door (106) from a doorway (105) while the second side edge (113) of the first door (106) remains within the doorway (105) and configured to cause the first door (106) to slide to an open position with the first side edge (303) leading. The sliding door arrangement (130) also comprises a guide means for guiding the second side edge (113) of the first door (106) out from the doorway (105) while the first door (106) is caused to slide to the open position.

Claims (9)

1. An actuator mechanism for a sliding door of a vehicle having a vehicle body, the actuator mechanism comprising: a motor; a gear train; a push member; and a screw mechanism; the push member and the screw mechanism being rotatably coupled to the motor via the gear train; wherein the actuator mechanism is configured such that, in use: operation of the motor causes the push member to act against the vehicle body so as to displace the door in a first direction towards a partially open position of the door in which at least a first side edge of the door is disposed outwardly of a door aperture; and further operation of the motor causes the screw mechanism to displace the door in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction towards a fully open position of the door.
2. An actuator mechanism (802) for a sliding door movable between closed and open positions relative to a door frame, the actuator mechanism 802 comprising: an epicyclic gear system (803) comprising a sun gear (804), a ring gear (81 1 ) having toothed inner and outer surfaces, and a plurality of planet gears (805) rotatably mounted to a carrier (806), the planet gears being in geared engagement with the sun gear (804) and the toothed inner surface of the ring gear (81 1 ); a displacement gear system comprising a connecting gear (807) fixedly mounted to the carrier (806) for rotation therewith, a pusher gear (808) in geared engagement with the connecting gear (807), and a push member (809) mounted eccentrically to the pusher gear (808); a screw mechanism comprising a nut (813) having an internal thread and a toothed outer surface (815), a shaft (814) fixedly mountable to the door and in threaded engagement with the internal thread of the nut (813), and a toothed belt (812) in toothed engagement with the outer surface of the nut (813) and the outer surface of the ring gear (81 1 ); and a motor (801 ) drivingly connected to the sun gear (804); wherein the mechanism (802) is arranged such that: in the closed position of the door, rotation of the sun gear (804) by the motor (801 ) causes the push member (809), via rotation of the sun gear (804), the connecting gear (807) and the pusher gear (808), to displace the screw mechanism and at least a portion of the door in a first direction relative to the door frame towards a partially open position of the door; and in the partially open position of the door, rotation of the sun gear (804) by the motor (801 ) causes the shaft (814), via rotation of the sun gear (804), the planetary gears (805), the ring gear (81 1 ) and the nut (813), to be displaced linearly relative to the nut (813) thereby to displace the door in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the first direction towards a fully open position of the door.
3. An actuator mechanism according to claim 2, wherein screw mechanism comprises a spindle defining a helical groove 814 and wherein the drive gear 813 comprises a bore 1001 configured to engage the helical groove 814 to drive the screw mechanism through the bore 1001 .
4. An actuator mechanism according to claim 2 or claim 3, wherein the bore 1001 is configured to compliment the outer surface of the screw mechanism and is provided with a helical thread 1002 configured to locate in the helical groove 814 of the screw mechanism.
5. An actuator mechanism according to claim 2 or claim 3, wherein the nut 813 comprises a ball-screw provided with an external toothed surface 815 configured to engage with the toothed belt 812.
6. An actuator mechanism according to any preceding claim, wherein the screw mechanism is fixed to the door 106 by a bracket 816 at each end of the screw mechanism, such that the screw mechanism is fixed parallel to the door 106 and unable to rotate on its axis.
7. A sliding door arrangement comprising a plurality of sliding doors, wherein each of the doors comprises an actuator mechanism according to any of claims 1 - 6.
8. A control system for an actuator mechanism of a vehicle, the actuator system comprising a motor, a gear train, a push member and a screw mechanism, the control system configured to: receive a signal indicative of a door movement request; control the motor to actuate such that the push member is configured to act against a body of the vehicle so as to displace a door of the vehicle in a first direction toward a partially open position of the door, in which at least a first side edge of the door is disposed outwardly of a door aperture of the body of the vehicle; and further control the motor so as to cause the screw mechanism to displace the door in a second direction, substantially perpendicular to the first direction, toward a fully open position of the door.
9. A vehicle comprising a sliding door and an actuator mechanism of any of claims 1 - 6, the sliding door arrangement of claim 7, and/or the control system of claim 8.
